Today's protagonist is Liu Xuan, the girls are curious about the sudden appearance of the righteous daughter of Liufu, and after a polite acquaintance, they chattered around Liu Xuan and asked, a lively woman asked Liu Xuan: "I heard that Sister Liu and Liu Shaofu were originally close friends, and they came to Liufu as a guest at his invitation. ”

Liu Xuan looked at the woman who asked and nodded with a smile, she remembered that this woman was the eldest daughter of General Lu Xuanwei's family, and the women of the generals were naturally much more lively, so she said: "What Miss Lu said is true, it is exactly so." ”

When Miss Lu heard this, she showed envy, she pouted and said to Liu Xuan: "Sister Liu's piano skills must be a must, I can't even figure out how many strings there are on the piano, when I was a child, my mother forced me to practice the piano, but I really don't have that talent, a good piano can be played by me to cry and mourn, and I want to touch the piano for a long time, but my mother is not allowed." ”

Her words successfully attracted a burst of laughter, that is, Liu Xuan was also amused, and a woman who was familiar with Miss Na Lu immediately joked after laughing: "You like those dancing knives and guns all day long, and your hands are quite strong, so you should spare those strings quickly." ”

Miss Lu immediately disagreed when she heard the joke, and scratched the woman with a smile, and there was a lot of laughter in the banquet for a while, and after they played, Liu Xuan smiled and rounded: "Sister Lu is a person who doesn't like red makeup and clothes, but the temperament of the husband of the middle woman, such a true temperament makes people happy, I don't know which son has the blessing to marry." ”

Hearing Liu Xuan's words, the originally lively Miss Lu suddenly turned red and quieted down. The woman who was playing with her smiled and said: "Miss Liu doesn't know, she has already made a marriage with the eldest son of the founding Hou family, and the eldest son will marry her when he returns with the prince of King Ning." ”

"I see." Liu Xuan looked at Miss Lu's increasingly shy face and said with a smile: "Then congratulations to Sister Lu first." ”

Liu Xuan took the lead, and the other women at the banquet also smiled and congratulated Miss Lu, and shamed a lively Miss Lu into a flower, and the girl Lu was so ashamed that she had the courage to say to the women: "Don't laugh anymore, don't blame me for going to the house to laugh at you when you are decided." ”

As soon as her voice fell, the woman at the banquet laughed even more happily. At this moment, a woman's voice came from behind Liu Xuan: "Your sisters are talking so speculatively. I don't know what witty things I said, so that I can join in the fun? ”

Liu Xuan turned around when she heard the sound, and saw two women standing not far away with their companions smiling towards this side, and the women who were originally sitting and laughing during the banquet got up and called: "It turns out that Miss Cao Er and Miss Wu are here." ”

I heard that the surname is Cao. Liu Xuan's eyes narrowed. All the women stood up. As the owner, Liu Xuan naturally couldn't sit, she got up and smiled at the two women, and motioned for the two of them to take a seat.

Someone has already given up the two seats next to Liu Xuan. The two stood in front of their seats, and one of the women looked at Liu Xuan carefully and then said with a smile: "This must be Miss Liu, the righteous daughter of Mrs. Liu, my name is Cao Ying, and I am the second oldest girl in the Cao family. ”

When Cao Ying looked at Liu Xuan, Liu Xuan also looked at her, the willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes were gentle and moving, different from Liu Xuan's dusty temperament, this Cao Ying could see at a glance that it was from a family, and the gentleness had the unique nobility of the daughter of the family.

This Cao Ying is really a familiar master, and all the girls show favor by calling her Sister Liu or Sister Liu, but as soon as she came, she called herself by her name, so that people felt a lot closer, and the daughter of the family was really different. Liu Xuan smiled quietly, and whispered along with her words: "Sister Ying." ”

Cao Ying smiled gently and pointed to the woman beside her to introduce Liu Xuan: "This is Wu Ying, the daughter of Wu Xiang." ”

Liu Xuan owes Wu Ying slightly, Wu Ying and Cao Ying came together, and it is rumored that Wu Xiangye and Cao Taishi are friends, but now it seems that it is true. ”

After Wu Ying and Liu Xuan met, Cao Ying smiled again and said, "Sister Ying and Sister Xuan look like they are generally big, and I don't know which of the two of you is older." ”

Wu Ying reported her birthday and then asked Liu Xuan with a smile, Liu Xuan answered truthfully, Wu Ying was the same age as her but a few months older than her, so Liu Xuan became Wu Ying's sister again.

Liu Xuan's closeness to the two of them naturally did not refuse, after the three of them met, the women sat down again, Cao Ying smiled and asked the previous words again: "I saw the sisters laughing happily just now, I don't know what interesting things to say let me and Sister Ying have a fun time." ”

"What's interesting somewhere?" Miss Lu, who was originally teased by everyone, pretended to be angry and glanced at the women: "They are making fun of me." ”

Wu Ying smiled and asked, "Sister Lu, didn't you say something funny to make all the sisters happy?" ”

A woman seated said: "Where did she say something funny, we are laughing at her and waiting for the spring to get married." ”

Cao Ying covered her mouth and chuckled: "I almost forgot, Sister Lu has been married to the eldest son of the founding marquis since she was a child, and now she is naturally going to get married." ”

Hearing this, Miss Lu's face turned red again: "Even Sister Cao came to make fun of me." ”

The girls looked at her shyly and smiled even more cheerfully, and I don't know who suddenly mentioned it: "Sister Cao is the first beauty in our capital, and I don't know which son's son can be blessed to take it." ”

Through the woman's mention, the topic turned to Cao Ying, and a woman at the banquet immediately answered: "Sister Cao's noble status is naturally only matched by the prince." ”

"But the prince obviously has no intention of taking a concubine, is it possible to let Sister Cao delay like this?"

As soon as she said this, there was an instant silence, and the woman who said this seemed to know that she was wrong, and she turned red and bowed her head.

Cao Ying smiled slightly, took a sip of the tea given by the maidservant, and then put it down: "The elders of the family are in charge of the marriage, how can we women in the boudoir have a reason to speak." ”

When the girls saw her round, they immediately nodded their heads and became embarrassed, and Cao Ying smiled again: "With Sister Xuan here, where can I still be called the first beauty in the capital, don't mention it again, sisters." Don't let Sister Xuan secretly laugh at me. ”

Cao Ying mentioned herself, and Liu Xuan immediately smiled: "Sister Ying is too humble, in Xuan's opinion, Sister Ying should be the title of the first beauty." ”

"Sister Xuan, don't make fun of her sister anymore." Cao Ying pretended to be resentful and glanced at Liu Xuan: "Before I saw Sister Xuan, my sister thought that she was outstanding, but now that she sees Sister Xuan, she doesn't dare to mention the word "Zhong" again." ”

Wu Ying on Cao Ying's side said with a smile: "Okay, okay, you two don't have to praise each other anymore, according to me, Sister Ying is gentle, Sister Xuan is out of the dust, the two of them think they are the double pearls of the capital, sisters, do you say yes." ”

Wu Ying said. The women nodded. The title of Beijing Shuangzhu fell on Liu Xuan and Cao Ying like this.

At this moment, there was a sudden applause from the male guest on the other side, and the women were immediately attracted to the sight when they heard the sound, and they all looked towards the male guest. It's a pity that it is far away and there are rockeries separating it. I couldn't see anything. The women couldn't help but show some disappointment and turned back one after another.

Cao Ying called the maidservant on the side: "You quietly go and see what is being done over there, it is so lively." ”

The handmaid took the command in the anticipation of the women. After a short time, she turned back, and when she saw that all the girls were looking at her, she replied with a slight voice: "Girl, your sons are trying to compose poems, and it just so happens that the prince came and commented on a poem at random, and your sons are applauding." ”

Cao Ying heard this, her eyes half-lowered and muttered, "The prince is actually here." ”

Although she was muttering to herself, it still fell into Liu Xuan's ears, Liu Xuan took Cao Ying's look into her eyes, it seems that what the women said is not bad, this Cao Ying and Lu have been together for two years, and the marriage has been delayed for no reason.

Cao Ying turned around and smiled at the women: "The male guests are so lively, we can't be inferior, why don't we also try to compose poems?" She took a pair of jade bracelets from her hands and put them on the table: "I would like to give these jade bracelets to the sisters to add some color." ”

Her jade bracelet was not ordinary at a glance, and the women were a little moved at the moment, although they were moved, no one stood up to be the one who threw bricks and led the jade.

Wu Ying, who was beside Cao Ying, also put the jade bracelet in her hand on the table: "I also use this jade bracelet as a color head, but this single competition is really a bit boring, why don't we play drumming and passing flowers, and pour wine in front of all the sisters, if this flower goes to which sister's hand, which sister must show a talent, if you don't want to show your talent, you can also drink as a punishment." ”

Wu Ying's proposal was immediately approved by everyone, this kind of game is much better than just trying to compose a poem, seeing that all the women nodded, Liu Xuan, as the master, instructed Qiu Ju, who was behind him, to prepare.

Liu Xuan smiled and said to everyone: "There is no shortage in the wine house, but there are no drums and flowers. ”

The women naturally said yes, Liu Xuan smiled and took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve to unfold it, and gestured in front of the women: "I will pass it on from one to the other." ”

All the women saw the handkerchief in her hand and showed surprise, all the people present were noble girls, this female red has been studying since childhood, and at a glance saw the special handkerchief in Liu Xuan's hand, Cao Ying on the side couldn't help but exclaim: "Sister, this handkerchief is actually a double-sided embroidered handkerchief!" ”

Liu Xuan smiled and nodded, and Cao Ying was even more surprised when she nodded: "Sister, can you lend me this embroidered handkerchief?" ”

Liu Xuan nodded naturally, handed over the handkerchief in her hand, Cao Ying took it and returned the handkerchief to Liu Xuan after a careful investigation, she exclaimed: "It is really a double-sided embroidered handkerchief, this double-sided embroidery technique has been lost for more than ten years, where did my sister get this handkerchief?" ”

Before Liu Xuan could answer, all the women borrowed a handkerchief from Liu Xuan to take a look, Liu Xuan simply threw the handkerchief to the women, and then replied to Cao Ying's words with a smile: "My sister doesn't know, I heard that Princess Xuejun's embroidery workshop to make women's skirts is a must in the capital, so I went to make a few clothes, but inadvertently saw this lost double-sided embroidered handkerchief in the brocade spinning next door to the embroidery workshop, and bought it back." ”

Cao Ying exclaimed after listening to Liu Xuan's words: "I didn't expect that there was an embroidery girl with unique skills in the brocade spinning." Another day, I will definitely go to Jinyi Textile to buy one. ”

"I'm afraid my sister won't be able to buy it at the right time." Liu Xuan said with a smile: "The embroidery girl who can embroider on both sides needs to go back for a while because of something at home, and I have bought all the only five-sided embroidered handkerchiefs. ”

Cao Ying smiled at Liu Xuan: "Thank you sister so much." ”

Wu Ying on the side also stepped forward and said, "Since Sister Xuan has a five-sided embroidered handkerchief, can you give me another one?" ”

Liu Xuan naturally nodded in response, the handkerchief turned around in the hands of the women and returned to Liu Xuan's hands, Liu Xuan looked at the envious look of everyone and said with a smile: "If the sisters like it, Xuan will add the remaining two embroidered handkerchiefs to the colorful head, even if you have not gotten it, there is no need to regret it, the embroidery girl will come back not long after, and then the sisters will go to the brocade to buy it." ”

As soon as the women thought that this was indeed the case, the envy faded a little, at this time Qiu Ju had already prepared wine and wine utensils, and the maids beside the girls also filled the wine bottles of their respective ladies, Cao Ying smiled slightly: "Since everything is ready, let's start, which sister is not willing to play can be proposed now, if you don't mention the rules at that time, we will not follow it." ”

As soon as Cao Ying's words fell, Miss Lu stood up: "I don't love these dancing and ink things since I was a child, so I won't be ugly in front of your sisters, I will be the one who will hit the plate for your sisters." ”

The women knew about this Lu girl, and there was no objection at the moment, except for this Lu girl, no one stood up again, even those women who thought they were not talented, and they didn't want to spoil the interest of the women in front of everyone, if it really spread to them drinking.

Miss Lu was blindfolded, sat down at the small table on the side and began to hit the plate, this Miss Lu is worthy of being behind the door, although she is not good at dancing and writing, but this hitting plate is very good, not light or heavy, slow and slow, so that people can't grasp the rhythm at all, and there is no way to know when it will stop.

The women are guests Liu Xuan is the master, this handkerchief is passed by her, the handkerchief came out of Liu Xuan's hand, and the women turned around and returned to Liu Xuan's hand, the sound of hitting the plate did not stop, Liu Xuan passed the handkerchief again, and after passing the four women, the sound of hitting the plate stopped abruptly.

Liu Xuan took a look, it was the more shy Miss Song who took the veil, seeing her helpless look, Liu Xuan smiled and said: "It's just a game, Sister Song doesn't have to be nervous, if you have any talent, you might as well show it, even if you don't want to perform in public and drink." ”

Listening to Liu Xuan's relief, the girl of the Song family smiled at her gratefully, and then pinched the handkerchief and bowed her head and said shyly: "I, I don't have much talent to take a shot, and I only work as a female celebrity in the house on weekdays to relieve some boredom, and I learned to paint with my brothers for a while, and now I think that only this painting can be used a little."
