Yan Ran entered the door and saw Yan Yao crying in Wen's arms, so she stepped forward and asked with concern, "Yao'er, what's wrong?" ”

Wen glanced up at Yan Ran, with a blaming look in his eyes, but he only sighed slightly, didn't say anything, and went to comfort Yan Yao again.

Master Yan's face was obviously angry, but with the experience of being slapped in the face several times in the past, he did not get angry immediately, but calmly asked Yan Ran: "The fan embroidered by Yao'er for the autumn women's red exhibit was cut off, but did you do it?" ”

Yan Ran was slightly stunned, and then showed a look of surprise: "How could my father think so, my daughter has never seen Yao'er's embroidered fan!" ”

Yan Yao raised her eyes and looked over, her eyes were red and swollen, she looked extremely aggrieved, and said with a sob: "However, only my sister went to my room yesterday......"

Although Yan Yao didn't say it, the implication that Yan Ran cut the fan was not too obvious.

Yan Ran pursed the corners of her lips lightly and said slowly, "Oh, is it? But I remember that there were several maids who came in and out of my sister's room yesterday! ”

Yan Yao immediately retorted, "How could they do such a thing?!" ”

Yan Ran asked rhetorically: "They won't do this, so I will?" ”

Yan Yao was speechless for a while, and she didn't have time to think about how to argue.

I only heard Yan Ran's voice go down, and then said very aggrievedly: "It turns out that in my sister's heart, the feelings and trust between our sisters are not as good as a few subordinates. ”

Yan Ran deliberately bit the word "subordinate", implying that Yan Yao trusted more subordinates than her eldest sister regardless of respect and inferiority, which blocked Yan Yao's heart.

When Mrs. Yan saw that Yan Yao was deflated, she didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and added fuel to the fire and said: "The so-called day and night prevention, it is difficult to prevent thieves, and something happened in her own yard, but it was on someone else's head." ”

Wen's lowered eyes sharpened, but he secretly pinched Yan Yao's palm.

Yan Yao remembered Wen's advice, so she had to suppress the anger, squeezed out a few tears, bit her lip and didn't speak, and she was pitiful.

Yan Ran didn't expect Yan Yao to be so calm, not as excited as before.

Yan Ran then changed her strategy, and also made a sad appearance, turned to Master Yan and explained: "Dad, although the female red exhibits are not included in the autumn test scores, they will also be visited and evaluated by the ladies of each family. is also the daughter of the Yan family, Yao'er has an outstanding performance and a good reputation, and her daughter naturally follows the light, so why should I cut her fan? ”

Old Man Yan groaned slightly, feeling that what Yan Ran said made some sense.

The school teaches poetry and etiquette, and naturally pays the most attention to the students' reading performance, so it does not take the school female red.

However, the girls' works will be displayed publicly, and when the open house of the school is opened, the ladies will be invited to come and see it.

If the girl's work is the most outstanding and has been praised by the ladies, this girl will also become the object of competition for each family's proposal.

After all, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person is not about who reads more books, but more attention is paid to character and the ability to run a family, whether it is virtuous and dignified, and whether it is ingenious.

Yan Ran's female celebrity is very ordinary, if she wants to get the favor of her husband, she has to use Yan Yao's reputation to save some face.

So there is really no need for her to frame her because of discord with Yan Yao, isn't it because of a small loss.

Yan Ran saw that Master Yan was thoughtful, and then said: "The top priority now is to solve the problem of the destruction of the exhibits. Yao'er, do you have any spare exhibits? ”

Yan Ran knew that since Wen and Yan Yao made this plan, they must have already made preparations for both, and they would never use the opportunity to win fame as a price, just to hit her.

Yan Yao was a stalk, she should say this first, so that she seemed to be prescient, but she didn't expect to be preempted by Yan Ran.

At this time, if she said that she had spare supplies, it would inevitably seem that this matter was deliberate, as if she had known about it a long time ago; But if she said no, Master Yan would definitely be unhappy again.

In short, it's wrong to say anything.

Yan Yao didn't know how to answer, so she glanced at Yan Ran angrily, and then looked at Wen.

Wen gently patted Yan Yao's hand to appease, and said in a gentle tone: "Master, Ran'er is right, the most important thing now is to solve Yao'er's female red exhibits." On my birthday last year, Yao'er embroidered a small screen for me, which looks good and can be used as an exhibit, but it's just ......"

Wen paused, hesitated, and then continued: "It's just that the screen was made by Yao'er last year, and after all, it is inferior to this year's embroidery, I'm afraid it will be difficult to come out on top." ”

Wen said, and sighed again: "But I can only do this, the autumn test is coming, and it's too late to prepare for it." Yao'er has been preparing the embroidered fan for more than half a year......"

When Master Yan heard this, his face became even more gloomy, and he glanced at Yan Ran inexplicably, as if he was a little suspicious and a little angry, but he couldn't bear it.

On the one hand, he felt that Yan Yao's accusation was reasonable, and on the other hand, he felt that Yan Ran's defense was not wrong.

He couldn't decide who was right and who was wrong, so he could only turn things over for the time being, but he still had doubts about Yan Ran in his heart.

When Yan Ran returned to Qionghua Courtyard, she was still puzzled, could it be that Wen and Yan Yao bothered to lay out just to provoke Master Yan to suspect her?

A few days later, Qingxuan went to Jinghua Courtyard and sold a maid on the charge of stealing.

According to insiders, the maid had been tortured before and was not in human form, and she couldn't survive if she wanted to sell it.

Yan Ran was secretly frightened, and combined before and after, she roughly figured out the real purpose of Wen and Yan Yao to make this play.

Thinking about it, it should be that the maid accidentally damaged Yan Yao's female red exhibits, Yan Yao didn't have time to prepare new exhibits, and was destined not to come out on top as in previous years, so Wen thought of this trick.

Otherwise, a character like Yan Yao, who wants to be top-notch in everything, will never use old things to participate in the exhibition.

In fact, if it is a real knife and real gun competition, Yan Yao may not necessarily be able to excel.

But after such a play, if she was really compared to others in the end, Master Yan would definitely feel that she could have taken the lead, but she lost the opportunity because of Yan Ran's frame-up, so he recorded this fault on her.

Wen's trick kills two birds with one stone, it can be described as exquisite, even if he fails to frame Yan Ran, he must blame Yan Ran's fault on Yan Ran.

Yan Ran gritted her teeth secretly, Wen wanted to use her as a raft to fulfill Yan Yao's reputation, and it depended on whether she was willing or not!

The autumn exams are coming as scheduled.

Because of the blessing of the examination book given by Wen Rong'an, Yan Ran's book test was like divine help, and her thinking was smooth and very smooth.

Next is the music test, where the students sit as they sit and are called by the master one by one, and choose any repertoire for the examination.

When it was Yan Ran's turn, she was assigned a more cheerful passage in the Shao song.

Yan Ran got up and walked to the piano case and sat down, before she started playing, there were still many people whispering, waiting to see her jokes.

Yan Ran was unmoved, caressing the strings, and got rid of all the noise around her.

Yan Ran's playing is smooth, a pair of plain hands are flying on the strings, and the bright sound of the piano is like a spring water flowing from the fingertips, and the beginning and end are crisp and neat, touching the heartstrings.

The master nodded again and again, showing an approving look, and with a wave of his big hand, he wrote the first grade behind Yan Ran's name.

The girls are a little incredible, they are usually used to hearing what Yan Yao said, how stupid and vulgar Yan Ran is, and they thought that she would definitely lose face, but they didn't expect her piano skills to be so outstanding.

The girls looked at Yan Yao one after another, and couldn't help but doubt the truth of what she said earlier.

Yan Yao was questioned by everyone, her face was a little unbearable, she hated it in her heart, but she said with disdain: "She is lucky, she only practices this piece of music on weekdays, but she didn't expect to be really bumped into by her!" ”

Although Yan Yao has a hard mouth, the confidence in her heart is also insufficient.

Yan Yao has been secretly paying attention to the movements of Qionghua Academy, and has never heard Yan Ran practice the piano, and it is also surprising that she can play so exquisitely.

But she remembered that the poems written by Yan Ran before were not only mediocre, but also took several days to compose, and she thought that she might indeed just be lucky this time.

Seeing that Yan Yao was so sure, the girls also believed her words, and they were a little envious, a little jealous, and a little contemptuous of Yan Ran's good luck.

After the music test, it is the school poetry and painting examination.

In this exam, poetry and painting are combined into one, and Xu Fuzi invigilated the exam, giving a theme, and students need to draw on this theme and write poems for the painting.

Hearing the news, the students had mixed feelings.

The good thing is that you can compose a poem or a painting first, and then recreate it according to the content of the poem or painting, which is easier than conceiving different themes.

The worry is that once one of them goes off-topic, both will be ruined.

When Yan Ran saw the theme given by the master, she couldn't help but admire Wen Rong'an's questioning skills again.

In the previous book test, most of the key points he listed appeared, and now the theme of poetry and painting with the theme of autumn is also in his prediction, and he gives ideas for solving the problem.

Yan Ran thought for a moment, and when others were still thinking about it, she began to pick up the pen and paint, and the pen was like a divine help, flowing smoothly, in one go.

Seeing Yan Ran so fast, Yan Yao didn't think that she was quick, but thought disdainfully, maybe she was giving up on herself.

However, Cui Jingshi saw that Yan Ran took the lead in writing, not to be left behind, and hurriedly began to paint.

The exam time is an hour, although Yan Ran picked up the pen early, but the content of the drawing is a bit much, and she can only accept the pen until the end of the exam time.

Xu Fuzi collected the students' poems and paintings, sealed the files, and then the masters would read the test papers uniformly, give the results, and publicize them.

The day's literary examination was over, and the students got up early in the morning, and they were nervous for most of the day, and they were already tired, waiting for the master to announce the end of school.

At this time, I suddenly saw a master in the east chamber running over in a hurry, panting and saying to Master Xu: "The saint has arrived, and he wants to review the test papers, come with me!" ”

As he spoke, he shouted to the girls, "Hurry up and get your groomed, and wait for the Celestial Driver!" ”

The girls looked at each other and were silent for a long time.

Why did the emperor suddenly come to the Chongwen Museum and review the test papers on the spot?
