Chapter 77: Tryst
Grandpa Cui put the big lotus flower on Miss Mei's plate and said, "This piece is for the first place." ”
Then, according to the ranking, Grandpa Cui divided the dim sum into the plates of each talented girl. Seeing that she had the smallest dim sum, Liz was so angry that she grabbed it and swallowed it, but she didn't taste anything.
Miss Mei, who was sitting on the side, trembled again when she saw Lizz's behavior, but her face did not show it, and she still ate herself gently. Soon, Miss Mei felt that a pair of eyes were watching her, she looked sideways, and saw that Lizi was staring at her snacks, so she said, "Miss Shangguan, I can't finish eating so much, can you help me eat a little?" ”
"I'm so happy." With that, Liz happily prepared to reach for it.
Grandpa Cui hurriedly shouted: "No! Miss Mei, this is a reward for the first place, if you don't finish eating, you won't give our family face! ”
When Miss Mei heard this, she didn't dare to give it to Lizi to eat, so she could only bury her head and continue to eat. Liz was very disappointed, and the things that were almost in her mouth were gone, and she pouted and leaned back in her chair, her eyes still fixed on the big lotus. Although Miss Mei didn't look at Liz again, however, she felt Lizzy's gaze and felt very uncomfortable eating snacks.
Grandpa Cui saw all this in his eyes, he shook his head, sighed, called Shopkeeper Zhou, and said, "Shopkeeper Zhou, you bring a small plate of fruit to Miss Shangguan, lest she covet the things in other people's butterflies." ”
After a while, Shopkeeper Zhou brought a large plate of fruit, and Grandpa Cui saw it and asked strangely, "Why did you bring such a big plate?" Where can Shangguan girl finish eating?! ”
Shopkeeper Zhou replied: "My father-in-law doesn't know, Miss Shangguan is a frequent visitor here, and I know her amount of food very well. The small plate was not enough for her to eat, so a large plate was served. ”
Father-in-law Cui said with a smile: "The big market is the big market, our family only realized today: people can't look good." ”
When Liz saw the fruit, her mood recovered a lot, and after pretending to be polite to Grandpa Cui, she devoured it.
I don't know what the shopkeeper Zhou spilled on the fruit, the more Lizi eats, the more spicy it becomes, tears and snot flow out uncontrollably, she is busy looking for a handkerchief, but she finds that she forgot to bring the handkerchief! There was no way, Lizi had no choice but to raise her arm, wipe her tears and snot on her sleeve, and at the same time secretly said in her heart: "This shopkeeper Zhou, why is he so careless!" I must have spilled some condiment and splashed it on the fruit, causing me to be so embarrassed. ”
Liz felt that Grandpa Cui was looking at herself, so she looked sideways at him, and saw Grandpa Cui looking at herself in surprise with his mouth open. Lizi smiled at Grandpa Cui and explained, "I forgot to bring a handkerchief." ”
Grandpa Cui blurted out: "Shangguan girl, don't say that the princes and nobles are in a noble family, even in an ordinary scholarly family, they can't tolerate you like this!" It's hard for you to get married. ”
Liz smiled: "It doesn't matter, if I can't get married, I'll stay in Baifu, it's quite comfortable." ”
Grandpa Cui is no longer wary of Liz at all, he knows that Liz's performance here will spread throughout the officialdom, and no one will recommend her to the emperor. Gonggong Cui sighed secretly: "Shangguan girl gave birth to a good skin in vain. ”
After the feast was dispersed, the talented women were sent to their respective homes. After Lizi arrived at the door of the house, she began to ponder: "It is estimated that Brother Bai has not finished their meal yet, and if they go in now, they will definitely be ridiculed by everyone." It's better to wait for everyone to finish their meal and disperse, and then sneak back through the back door without anyone knowing. ”
Thinking of this, Liz walked slowly down the street aimlessly, and she thought as she walked: "This time, the plan to capture Big Brother Bai's heart has completely failed, Big Brother Bai must think I'm stupid now, how can I save my impression?" ”
Just thinking about it, I saw a person walking out of the corner in front of me, very similar to Miss Mei, Lizi said secretly: "Miss Mei is the first, aren't you embarrassed to go home?" No, it won't! Maybe Miss Mei is everyone's best girl, and she is usually strictly controlled, so she can't go out for a stroll. This time, I finally had an excuse to take advantage of this opportunity to go out and do more. ”
Liz wanted to stop her, but Miss Mei walked fast, and besides, Liz hadn't recovered from the setbacks of the game, so she didn't bother to run forward, so she slowly followed behind. At this moment, Miss May turned the corner and walked towards a pavilion on the hillside. Liz thought: I don't have a place to go, so let's go up to the gazebo and sit.
The road was not short, and Liz walked slowly, and when she was about to reach the gazebo, she heard the voices of men and women, so she stopped and listened. Liz heard that the woman was Miss Mei, and the man turned out to be the presiding judge Jia Hanlin.
I heard Jia Hanlin ask, "Doesn't it matter if you come out?" ”
Miss Mei replied, "The family thought I was still at the feast. Okay, no more gossiping, when are you going to divorce your wife? ”
"You know, I'm sincere to you, I can't rush this matter, I will definitely divorce her. However, you have to find her fault before you can divorce her. ”
"What if she didn't make mistakes?"
"No, it won't. I'm going to bring my mother here, but if she can't serve her mother well, she is unfilial! In this way, she can be divorced. ”
"What if she serves well?"
"My mother has been annoying her for a long time. I'm a famous talent, she can't even write a decent poem, we don't match each other at all! In this final, you are the first again. Mrs. Xiang wanted her daughter to win the championship, but I didn't agree. ”
"You're not afraid that Master Xiang will retaliate against you?"
"No, Master Xiang is just talking. His daughter's level is so far behind yours! If the evaluation is impartial, his daughter will not even be able to enter the top five, and Master Xiang should know it. Although I am the chief judge, I am not alone in the decision, there are other reviewers. Later, Xiang Taishi asked that Shangguan Lizi to enter the finals, I don't know what he thought, let someone with such a poor level participate in the finals! Fortunately, Miss Shangguan is very interesting, and the feedback from the audience is not bad, otherwise, it will be troublesome if someone comes to question. ”
Liz didn't want to listen to it anymore and left quietly, and Jia Hanlin's last words hit her quite hard. Lizi thought to herself: "I thought it was to assist Dali Temple in handling the case and make an exception to let myself participate in the finals, but now I know that it was the help of Master Xiang, who Brother Bai hated the most." If Big Brother Bai knew the truth, he would definitely be unhappy. ”
Liz returned home with a heavy heart, and she slipped through the back door into the White House, through the garden, and lightly touched her room. Yahuan Zijuan saw Lizi and was about to speak, but Lizi hurriedly shook her hand, signaling her not to make a sound, and then said in a very soft voice: "Big Brother Bai, if they want to ask, just say that I haven't come back yet." ”
Before the words fell, Xu Feiyan's voice suddenly came: "We all heard it!" Liz, you underestimate our internal strength! The internal force is practiced to the extent that we can hear the sound of the embroidery needle falling to the ground, not to mention the footsteps of your footsteps without a little light work. You came in through the back door, come to the living room! ”
