Chapter 202: Bad Motives
Xie Yaoyao learned about this from his father, and there was a sense of anger in her heart, so that she looked at Miaoyin Niangzi more and more unpleasantly.
After hearing Xie Yaoyao's words, Zhao Zhenzhu began to ponder, while Tang Chu lowered his head and smiled.
"Miaoyin Lady still miscalculated, and now she is beginning to be suspected of having bad motives in selling the appearance fee for the banquet at a high price!" Tang Chu thought to himself.
She doesn't know much about Miaoyin Niangzi, but she still knows about a major event that happened many years later, and from that incident, people found out that Miaoyin Niangzi, who was out of the dust, devoted to the Tao, and kind to others, turned out to be a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Having said this, the county lord of Huayang suddenly saw Tang Chu and the three of them sitting together chatting by themselves, and did not come to flatter him, and he felt a little unhappy.
She raised her voice and said, "I heard that Zhao Xianling's Qianjinqin, chess, calligraphy and painting are proficient in everything, why don't you show us how it is." β
As soon as the words fell, the smiles of the nobles were still on their faces, but their eyes had already looked at Zhao Zhenzhu, how did they think that the words of the county lord of Huayang were aimed at Zhao Zhenzhu?
Zhao Zhenzhu looked at the Huayang County Lord, first gave a salute, and then replied, "The county lord is here, Zhenzhu still doesn't want the class to get an axe." β
"Miss Zhao is modest, I heard that Miss Zhao is the most famous talented woman in Suizhou, well-read, let's get together today, why don't you do something to help the fun?" The county lord of Huayang said with a smile.
"I wonder what the county lord wants to do?" Tang Chu asked.
"Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are fine." Lord Huayang replied.
A wave of irritability rose in Zhao Zhenzhu's heart, maybe it was really as Tang Chu said, this Huayang County Lord was jealous of his appearance, and it seemed that he was going to find fault.
"Our daughter's family is nothing more than some women's red knitting, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, these are clichΓ©s, why don't we compare other fun things!" Tang Chu said.
"What's fun?" Hearing this, Xie Yaoyao couldn't help but ask.
She knew that Tang Chu's mind was full of all kinds of good ideas recently, and every idea that could be recognized by everyone when it was implemented.
"Yes, we also want to know, Miss Tang tell me quickly!" Others asked.
At this time, all the noble ladies were in the leisure area arranged by Tang Chu, sitting on the soft cushions, and they didn't want to move when they were comfortable.
Tang Chu smiled, and then said slowly, "The name of this game is 'You come to compare, I will guess"
"You can compare and I will guess? I've never heard of how this game is played! One of the young ladies wondered.
Tang Chu began to explain to them, "The literal meaning is that one person compares, one person guesses the word, the actual practice is to write the word on a piece of paper, one person is facing the other, the other person is facing the back, the person facing the word can not speak, can only use body movements to express the meaning of the word, and then let the person with his back to guess, this game is a test of the expression ability of two people, and the other is the degree of tacit understanding." What does the county lord think? β
After Tang Chu finished speaking, everyone also understood how this game was played, and they were a little eager to try, looking at the county lord of Huayang with expectant eyes.
The county lord of Huayang was stunned for a while, her original intention was that Suizhou was located in a remote area, and the women should have no talent to learn, and the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting must be inferior to her.
Who knew that Tang Chu actually proposed to play the game, it was really a joke, did they think they could compare to themselves in the game?
The county lord of Huayang held his head high and said, "Since everyone has the heart to play, I won't spoil the fun." β
"Thank you, Lord!" A group of noble ladies thanked them with smiles, although they were the hosts, and the county lord of Huayang was a guest, and they all said that the guests were as they pleased, but the identity of the county lord of Huayang determined that she had the right to decide everything about the banquet.
Tang Chu immediately sent Shuangxi to take out a wooden shelf from the cabinet against the wall and a pile of white paper.
"Also ask the county lord to write a few idioms or names of objects that are common on weekdays." Tang Chu put down the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and said to the county lord of Huayang.
The county lord of Huayang is still a little embarrassed, she doesn't know what to write?
"Sisters, let's all turn our backs, except for the county lord and my maid, no one is allowed to peek!" Tang Chu quipped.
"Don't worry, don't look at it, whoever looks at it is a puppy! Ha ha! β
"I'll see who guesses best in a moment."
"Sister Li, let's have a group!"
"No, Sister Li said that she was in a group with me, you are a halfway robbery!"
"Okay, okay, I'll ask Tang Chu later, let's change it."
The jokes of the ladies were endless, and everyone gathered in a room, all turned their backs and waited for Huayang County to take the initiative.
The county lord of Huayang began to meditate hard in his heart, racking his brains to prepare some difficult idioms, and the serious expression on his face made Jingwen feel a little emotional, "It's really rare to see the county lord so serious and focused!" β
"What do you say?" After the county lord of Huayang finished writing, he suddenly heard Jingwen muttering something in a low voice, so he asked.
"It's okay, the slave just admires the lord of the county, and knows so many idioms." Jingwen replied immediately.
The county lord of Huayang smiled, and it was in vain that she racked her brains and came up with these dozens of idioms.
"That's natural, I love to read since I was a child, and I'm also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, where can the women in this remote city compare!"
As soon as these words came out, Jingwen couldn't help but feel ashamed of the county lord of Huayang, how did the county lord say these words with a cheeky face?
Others don't know, she doesn't know yet?
The lord of Huayang County does not like to read since she was a child, it is the queen mother in the palace who forced her to learn, and if she can't pass the exam, she will be beaten with a ring ruler.
If he hadn't been under the guidance of the Queen Mother with the other princesses and county lords in the past few years, according to the temperament of the county lord of Huayang, he might not even know a few big characters!
Zhao Zhenzhu in the corner turned his head and said to Tang Chu, "I admire you more and more now, I can transfer other people's anger in a few sentences, and find a coolie to write for you!" β
"Miss Zhao has won the award, Tang Chu didn't do anything, these are just the sons of the plan I prepared a long time ago, and it just happened to be a coincidence to solve the siege for Miss Zhao." Tang Chu said.
Zhao Jizhu chuckled, she shook her head, and her face was full of doubts.
Tang Chu also saw that Zhao Zhenzhu didn't believe her words, Zhao Zhenzhu was a smart person and had a clear mind, but this was not for Zhao Zhenzhu to hear, as long as she didn't admit it, a woman like Xie Yaoyao would not think of the role she played in it.
