Chapter 421: Performance

The other invited girls more or less have some friends who are familiar with each other and can have fun, and when they meet, they play together in pairs, and the three sisters of An Ruoyun also met a few acquaintances, but they kept in mind Murong's reminder, they did not go to play with their friends, but honestly stayed by the side of the eldest mother and the sixth sister.

Contrary to others, An Ruoxian wants to play but has no company, and she doesn't know anyone except for a few sisters in her own house. In addition, Murong stared at her very closely, even if she wanted to take the opportunity to make a few friends, she would not have a chance.

was forced to nest in the corner with a group of nasty people, if it weren't for the fact that there would be a song to look forward to, An Ruoxian would have left a long time ago.

Fortunately, the song race began soon.

The quiet lake pavilion is the stage of the song competition, the blue waves outside the pavilion are rippling, the green willows on the shore are still clinging, this wonderful scenery alone is very fascinating, if it is coupled with a wonderful performance, it will be more pleasing to the eye.

On the shore opposite the pavilion is a long table and benches, on which delicate fresh melons and fruits are placed, as well as the best fragrant tea for guests to eat.

As soon as Princess Qinshu announced the start of the song competition, as soon as the big drum sounded, all the young ladies who were scattered around to play gathered over, which shows that everyone values this song competition the most.

Murong and An Ruolan didn't want to join in the fun, but everyone gathered around the lake, if they didn't go, it would attract attention, so after the two of them discussed, they took a few small people to mix in the crowd and found a position a little behind to sit down.

Seven people sat at two tables crammed together.

When I sat down, I saw that there were many silk flowers made of sand on the table. I think it's going to be used for voting.

An Ruohuan distributed the silk flowers to everyone and waited with great interest to watch the performance.

Humility is a virtue, but too much is annoying.

An Ruohuan waited expectantly for a while. Seeing that a group of young ladies were still pushing around over there, and no one was on the stage for a long time, he couldn't help but complain: "How long will they be?" ”

An Ruolan liked this innocent twelfth sister very much, and comforted her when she heard this: "If you are bored, play rope flipping with your eleventh sister, so that the time will pass quickly." ”

Hearing this, An Ruoxian snorted disdainfully in her heart. I look down on her words to coax children.

Just wanted to sarcastically say a few words, but An Ruohuan showed a sudden realization, and actually took out the red rope from her purse. really played rope flipping with An Shiyi. Wei Shao looked interesting and joined them.

Seeing this, An Ruoxian's disdain was even worse in her heart.

Murong couldn't help but smile at An Ruolan and said, "You still have a way to take them." ”

An Ruolan smiled.

Not only An Ruohuan felt procrastinated, but other people waiting to watch the performance also felt irritable. Whispering to start. As if sensing that the atmosphere was wrong, someone was finally the first to perform in the pavilion.

It's two sons and sisters who are together, and they want to perform the piano and flute ensemble.

Musical instruments, weapons and other tools are ready, the categories are complete, and the performers can choose at will, and the two handsome sons pick the required instruments and start playing.

The sound of the piano is melodious, and the sound of the flute is tactful. The two were met with applause, and some of the girls raised their silk flowers with shy faces. Wait until the person in charge of the statistics has memorized the number before putting it down.

There are people who start, and the people behind them no longer drag, so many people go up one after another, some improvise poems, some spill ink, some sing and dance, some dance swords and boxing, eighteen kinds of musical instruments are used, and all the performers have more or less got the audience's silk flowers.

An Ruohuan is a person who loves to join in the fun, no matter what others perform, whether the performance is good or not, she will raise the silk flower in her hand, even if the sword falls off halfway through the sword dance, she will give applause and silk flowers.

An Ruolan couldn't help but tease her: "You can't tell the difference between good and bad, or do you just think it's fun?" That boy was so nervous that his sword fell, why did you still hold him a silk flower, didn't you see that everyone was laughing at him? ”

An Ruohuan blinked suspiciously, and said, "He didn't mean to get the sword off, so many people laughed at him, he was already very pitiful, of course I want to encourage him." And I think the people who go up are very good, at least better than me, of course I have to pay respect. ”

Hearing this, An Ruolan couldn't help laughing, and said, "You did the right thing." ”

After receiving the compliment, An Ruohuan grinned.

An Ruoyun quietly pulled her and said in a low voice: "Although Sister Lan said that you are not wrong, but you are too eye-catching, many people are looking at us just now, don't do this." ”

"Oh." An Ruohuan nodded, she was really much more honest later, and she didn't raise the silk flower again.

Wei Shao touched An Ruolan's arm, motioned for her to look to the left front, and said, "The little boy who dropped the sword just now has been looking this way." ”

An Ruolan raised her eyes, and really saw the young man who was flushed with shame just now looking over frequently, she couldn't help but hide her lips and smile: "It seems that Ruohuan has stumbled into a marriage by mistake." ”

Wei Shao smiled meaningfully.

After a while, a little girl in Tsing Yi ran over to ask for peace, and said, "Mrs. An, the county lord of Chenshuang, my wife invites the two of you to get together." ”

"Your lady is ......" Murong was confused, she looked at this girl's clothes and ornaments unfamiliarly, not like someone she knew.

"My wife is Mrs. Zhongyong." The girl in Tsing Yi replied.

Murong and An Ruolan knew each other, Mrs. Zhongyong Hou, the young man who made a joke just now was not the second son of Zhongyong Hou.

An Ruolan covered her lips with a fan and said with a smile: "Mother, go over and sit, I'll take care of my sisters here." She glanced at An Ruohuan meaningfully.

Murong naturally understood, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said, "Then I'll go back when I go." ”

The twelve girls haven't seen each other yet, if this thing can be done, it will be a beautiful thing.

Murong smiled and followed the maid.

An Ruoxian looked at everything in her eyes, her heart was sour, and she whispered to An Shiyi: "Grandmother said don't be noticeable, is the eldest lady doing this?" ”

Why can An Ruohuan find someone at the flower viewing party, she doesn't believe it?!

These words were stopped in An Ruolan's ears, and she said lightly: "Mother has some friendship with Mrs. Zhongyong Houfu. Just meeting friends, it will be fine, and being low-key does not mean that you can't even meet friends. Just watch your performance. ”

An Ruoxian's heart was blocked, and she stopped speaking with a gloomy face.

Performing one after another, so far Miss Yan of the Zhenguo Mansion has the highest voice and has gotten the most silk flowers, seeing that the time is almost up, An Ruoxian is ready to act.

Before the new performance began, she said to An Ruolan: "Sister Lan." I want to go to the latrine. ”

An Ruolan glanced at her lightly and said, "Go and come back quickly." ”

"Yes." Holding back her joy, An Ruoxian got up and left with a flat expression.

Wei Shao looked at her back and asked An Ruolan, "Do you want me to help you keep an eye on her?" I think she's trying to get out of your sight. Go to the pavilion and perform. ”

An Ruolan shook her head, "Let her go, if we stop her, maybe she will make a bigger trouble." When the time comes, we will restrict her freedom. There's no gossip, so instead of being on guard, it's better to let her go. ”

"But didn't your mother say you can't let her be in the limelight?" Wei Shao was puzzled.

"Letting her perform doesn't mean she can be in the limelight, she just is too confident in herself." An Ruolan shook her head and smiled.

Wei Shao didn't talk much.

An Ruolan only said half of what she said, and the reason why she let An Ruoxian mess around was not only because she said it, but also because she guessed the reason why Princess Qin Shu posted to the Wenxin Marquis Mansion. She thought of Zhao Qing, the son of King Gong, and remembered what she had accidentally bumped into. Zhao Qing and An Ruoxian riding together. She guessed that Zhao Qing asked Princess Qin Shu to post to the Hou Mansion, the purpose of which was to let An Ruoxian take the opportunity to shine.

If that's the case. As long as Princess Qin Shu speaks, they will not only be unable to stop An Ruoxian, but will also cause criticism.

It was with this worry that she had to let An Ruoxian come forward.

Now I only hope that someone can overpower An Ruoxian's limelight.

As An Ruolan expected, An Ruoxian slipped to the entrance of the pavilion and asked the emcee who presided over the song competition to write her name.

Murong was talking to Mrs. Zhongyong Hou, and the name of the newspaper made her tremble, and she hurriedly looked up, and saw An Ruoxian standing in the center of the pavilion with a tail of qin, saluting everyone.

How come?!

Murong was shocked, and he didn't have the heart to chat with the people of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion anymore, so he hurriedly resigned and returned to his table.

Before she sat down, she asked urgently: "What's the matter, how can Sister Xian'er go to perform, didn't I let you watch her?" ”

Her voice was so low that the people next to her didn't hear it, but the whispering sound of the next table came to her ears.

"The tenth lady of the Wenxin Hou Mansion? Isn't it the one that was passed on before, the one who was instructed by the goddess? ”

"What kind of goddess, it's just a name that a liar brags about to get money, this Miss An Shi is just a concubine in the fifth room of the Wenxin Marquis Mansion, and I don't know how she got in."

"It's just a lowly girl, and she also wants to be in the limelight at the flower viewing party, it's really dirty."

"I was going to go up to perform, but I was preempted by a concubine, I didn't even want to enter the pavilion, and performing behind her was simply lowering my status."

The discussion continued, all of them were unpleasant words, and if there seemed to be no glance around them, Murong Clan's face became more and more ugly. Obviously, others thought that the An family deliberately brought a concubine to spoil the fun.

An Ruolan patted the back of her hand soothingly, and said with a smile: "It's rare for Sister Xian to be invited to such a banquet, so we don't want to hold her back, and besides, I can't stop her." ”

She didn't deliberately lower her voice, the people around her heard her words, and when they heard An Ruoxian was invited to attend, everyone stopped. They also heard the meaning of An Ruolan's words, it was An Ruoxian who took the initiative to perform, and did not get the consent of the elders in the family.

For a while, everyone was even more disgusted with this An family girl, who loved to be showy and disobedient to her elders, no one liked such a girl, especially the self-proclaimed noble and educated family wives.

Before the performance began, An Ruoxian scored a negative score.

An Ruoxian naturally didn't know this, she set up the piano, took a deep breath and planned to show off her skills.

What she wants to play is Liang Zhu, a sad and poignant song, and she believes that this famous song can move many people.

She also wanted to come to a dance of neon clothes and feathers, but dancing was vulgar compared to playing the qin, and all the people present were noble figures, and they definitely preferred the elegant guqin.

Ten fingers caressed on the strings, fingertips lightly hooked, she played the first note, then the second and third, one note after another, and the poignant Liang Zhu jumped on the fingertips.

Relaxing, An Ruoxian recalled the poignant love story, trying to integrate herself into the situation, and played a more emotional and infectious piano sound.

However, before she could completely sink into Liang Zhu's artistic conception, a male voice suddenly sounded: "Wrong." (To be continued......)
