Chapter Ninety-Six: Just the Beginning
Standing next to the big case, the girls and grandmothers all watched, Ruan Xin's feelings were diametrically opposed to Gu Yunjin's.
How could Ruan Xin ever taste like this?
She was a little cramped, and she was afraid that someone would see her uneasiness, so she could only pinch her palms and force herself to smile: "Miss Gu's words are good, and the character club has always been voluntary.
I know that there are also good standards present, but do not like to publicize, I threw bricks and stones, and asked all the girls and grandmothers who are familiar with each other to recommend a few people, so that we can taste more good words. ”
Ruan Xin's smile was gentle as usual, and her words were thoughtful, and the reason was tenable.
Some people believe it, some people don't believe it, and some people wait and see, after all, Ruan Xin and the three cousins have no suspicions, and there is no entanglement, so why bother to elevate the two and degrade one for no reason?
Perhaps, as she said, she was just cheeky to ask someone to show her hand, and had no other intentions.
Xu Lingyi kept a calm face and stood in the corner without speaking.
Xu Lingjie pursed her lips and sighed in a low voice: "When we are stupid? ”
There was already the next one waiting to pick up the pen, so Gu Yunjin didn't delay and retreated to find the county lord of Shou'an.
Before he got closer, he heard the county lord of Changping complaining about Shou'an.
"What's the use of saying it nicely? Things are not done well," the county lord of Changping snorted, "I remember that you were very good with her before?" You can't see people. ”
Shou An thought, she really looked away.
Her brother is not the kind of person who has to take care of everything, confines his sister in rules and regulations, and wants to raise him squarely, but he specifically mentioned that there must be a reason for her to alienate Ruan Xin.
She complied, even if she didn't know why.
But now, Shou An somewhat understood, even if Ruan Xin played a round, she didn't believe Ruan Xin.
Before Ruan Xin asked Miss Gu to write, she clearly had a bad feeling, but now that she thinks about it, it is Ruan Xin's hostility and calculation towards Miss Gu.
Because of her personal likes and hatreds, she secretly pokes and pokes at others to make stumbling blocks and dig holes in the public, which she doesn't like.
The county lord of Shou'an puffed out his cheeks: "Aren't you still good friends with Jin Anfei?" Who hasn't looked away yet? ”
Changping was stunned when he heard this, and his embarrassment flashed, but he smiled.
You see, half a catty is worth eight taels, no wonder they have been good since they were young.
The awkwardness of being given a snack by Shou An was gone, and when Gu Yunjin came over, the three of them got together and laughed and talked.
Ruan Xin's mind did not fall on the person who was writing with a pen, and she kept paying attention to Gu Yunjin's condition.
She noticed the recent change in the attitude of the lord of Shou'an towards her, and she couldn't think of a reason, but she was helpless.
The identity is different, the county lord doesn't come to the book club, and he doesn't give her a post, how can she go to the Guogong Mansion to find the county lord?
I want to ask, but right now, it's not the time.
When all the girls and grandmothers who are willing to carry the pen finish writing, all the notes are put away and sent by the maids to the side of the sons, and the notes written by the sons will also be sent.
Under the verandah, the ropes were hung, and the notes written by the sons were hung one by one for the girls to taste.
In order to be fair and objective, all the notes do not leave the name and surname of the inscription, only the words, not the people.
Gu Yunjin looked at it at a glance, those words had their own style and were eclectic.
There is a majestic atmosphere such as the river and the sea rushing, and there is also a calm end like the high monk Pu Mao, and the content is also changeable, poems, words, and even a single word.
It's also interesting to think about it one by one.
Everyone's minds were attracted, some people read words, and some people guessed people.
Pinzi will be more than a family brother and sister, even if they don't leave their names and surnames, there is still no shortage of people who recognize their brothers' handwriting.
The county lord of Shou'an hurriedly looked around and sighed: "It seems that my brother is not finished." ”
The county lord of Changping stopped guessing people's thoughts, whether it was the brother of the relatives in the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion or the cousin of the Yongwang Mansion, he had never been willing to show this kind of limelight, just to watch the excitement.
Xu Lingyi was attentive to tasting, and Xu Lingjie found Yang Xiyu's notepaper.
Yang Xiyu's words are neat and neat, and the charm is elegant, which is very outstanding.
Xu Lingyi's eyes lit up, she heard many people praising Yang Xiyu's words, she wanted to tell them, "This is written by my cousin", but when the words came to her mouth, she could only swallow them.
There are many people who watch the jokes, but because they are not familiar with each other and maintain their own decency, they do not mention those rumors in person.
If she opened her mouth first to say Yang Xiyu's name, she would give others a chance to follow the pole.
She didn't want to answer that.
The girls can be regarded as having their own fun here, and the sons are more intense.
Scholars have their own style, but readers also have their own "pedantic", and literati are light, which is really not a lie.
On weekdays, there have long been discordants, and they took this opportunity to mock and belittle a few words, some people echoed it, some people refuted it, and it was very lively.
The three brothers of Suningbo Mansion, together with the little prince and several other princesses, sat on the second floor, with the window open, listening to the situation below.
Jiang Muyuan was playing chess with Mr. Ruan in the next room.
In the last chess game, the old gentleman finally lost to Jiang Muyuan by a glance and a half, and today's game is newly opened, and he can't see the superiority for a while.
Ruan Bai watched the two play against each other, and hesitated: "Little grandfather, little prince, they are only sitting next door, how can they see the words written underneath?" ”
Jiang Muyuan hooked the corners of his lips.
Which of those people came to taste the Word? To put it bluntly, it's all about the excitement.
"Leave them alone," Jiang Muyuan said, "just prepare some refreshments to send, and they will have fun themselves." ”
Ruan Bai really didn't understand the so-called fun of these sons, but since Jiang Muyuan said so, he didn't bother with that heart, and let the scholar take care of the tea and snacks.
In order to hear the movement below, there was no loud speaker on the second floor, which was very clean, so anyone in the garden could hear it clearly.
Jiang Muyuan twisted the chess pieces, and since Yang Xiyu and the Xu family brothers came to the book club, they have suffered a lot of gossip.
He didn't get along with Yang Xiyu for a long time, and even took out a piece of broken ink from his sleeve, and laughed loudly: "Second son Yang, this is your pine smoke ink, right?" How about you write in this piece of ink in a moment? ”
The laughter was everywhere, Yang Xiyu didn't seem to respond, and those laughter gradually stopped.
When Ruan Xin's brother Ruan Li presided over the character meeting, the sons' minds were led to the character and they expressed their opinions.
The chess game on the second floor continued.
After thinking about it, Mr. Ruan fell and said, "The little grandfather fell today, which is different from the sharp edge of the previous game." ”
The previous offensive was fierce, and this time he played steadily, but Mr. Ruan said that the steady chess style made him have to be more cautious, and he had to think about it a few more times all the time to find a killing move in the dark.
Hearing this, Jiang Muyuan chuckled lightly, his eyes burning: "It's just the beginning, don't worry." ”
