Chapter 428: It's going to be a bit of a thing
"You see, this is an invitation from the daughter of the servant. I've been to her activities twice, and I always have a very uncomfortable feeling, she's a little arrogant, as if no one cares about it, and she seems to have a sense of disdain when she looks at others. ”
"This one is ......"
Tang Yining introduced them one by one, and finally arrived at Lin Shiyao.
"Lin Shiyao has always been known as a talented woman, and she is indeed a talented woman, if it weren't for the brilliance covered up by Zhao Yuning in the past, she would definitely be a high-profile person in the capital. She is unassuming, approachable, and comfortable to socialize with. ”
Lian Ying blinked, and the corners of her mouth curled: "Lian Ying believes in Sister Yining's vision, since Sister Yining has said so, then this must be an excellent person to get along with." ”
Tang Yining smiled: "Silly girl, is what I said the best?" ”
"Of course, after all, Sister Yining is the best in the world." For Lian Ying, if Li Zhao is the mother who gave her life and raised her to grow up, then Tang Yining is definitely the little fairy sent by God to change her fate.
Seeing Lian Ying staring at herself with bright eyes, Tang Yining gently nodded her face.
"Okay, for your sake, then I'll ask Xiaocui to give a post back, saying that I will take you to the banquet when the time comes. This is the first time you have participated in such an event, and it is bound to give a new impression to the world, and through Lin Shiyao's banquet, it is a good channel. ”
The matter was settled like this, Lian Ying was a little nervous, she flashed a pair of eyes, like a confused little rabbit.
"But Sister Yining, I'm a little nervous, I, I've never participated in such an event, I don't know what to do." Lian Ying asked a little flustered: "When the time comes, what do you need me to do?" ”
Tang Yining looked at her like this, and she didn't know why she suddenly had a hint of playfulness in her heart, so she couldn't help but want to scare her.
"Well, let me think about it, it seems that everyone is required to dance and compose poems or something to participate in these activities..... Besides, Lin Shiyao is a talented girl, and her banquet is ten of the best, and she has to draw and write poems or something. When you're on stage, just behave well. ”
Now even Ying is not calm, you must know that you can have the courage to participate in these banquets, or for the sake of Sister Yining, who will also go together, if you want to go on stage? Nope! How could she do it!
"No, no, I won't know this. What to do? What to do? Lian Ying was so anxious that she couldn't help but stand up and turn around in circles. Now, there are only three days left before the banquet, do I have to prepare a dance? However, if you don't learn well, wouldn't it be a shame to die in such a short period of time, and it must be a little good-looking? Otherwise, or do I want a poem to come out now? ”
"No, I don't know what the subject of this poem is. Sister Yining, you help me figure out a way. What should I do? ”
Lian Ying came back to her senses and wanted to ask Tang Yining for help, but she didn't expect that as soon as she turned her head, before she could say anything, she saw Tang Yining's unhappy appearance. She suddenly came to her senses and knew that she had been teased.
I wasn't annoyed, and I breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister Yining, are you right to deceive me?" Definitely
。 Saying that, there was a rare hypocrisy.
Tang Yining had been holding back a smile just now, tears were coming out of her eyes, and she gently wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue. Xiao Cui smiled helplessly on the side, if she hadn't helped herself just now, her own lady might not have fallen.
"It's not that I'm lying to you, it's just that what I just said is half credible, half unbelievable, although it is true that I want to compose poems and paintings, but it is not mandatory for everyone to do this, otherwise those who are not talented will dare to come to such a banquet, it is just everyone sitting together and chatting."
Even the warbler relaxed, and forgot the previous nervousness, only remembering that she was teased, and suddenly she was unwilling to want to flirt back. Sister Yining, who was facing her, smiled maliciously.
"What about you, Sister Yining? You're so versatile, you must be doing something, right? If nothing else, then you have participated in a lot of banquets, and you should have more or less expressed yourself, so are you painting or doing poetry? ”
Tang Yining smiled and began to recall the scene when he first attended the banquet.
"Speaking of which, when I went for the first time, I drew a picture, which was a picture of spring and spring rain, which was very simple, but it was just luck, and I had a point or two of artistic conception, otherwise I would be embarrassed to go again. Speaking of which, there are still one or two things that can be handled, and there is no need to be afraid of other people's difficulties. ”
As long as people have confidence, they naturally have nothing to fear. There are some things, it's not that Lian Ying can't, it's just that she doesn't dare to show it.
"You don't have to be so nervous, as the saying goes, things gather by like, people are grouped, and most of Lin Shiyao's friends are naturally soft and easy to get along with. Even if you don't do anything, it won't embarrass you, what will happen to you. However, you can also prepare in advance, prepare a poem, or practice drawing in advance. If it really doesn't work, there is no problem in saying a confession. "It's just that it's a bit necessary to take precautions.
Lian Ying nodded, wrote down these words, and after she returned to the general's mansion, she naturally went to find her mother as soon as possible.
"I went to Prince Gong's Mansion today to find Tang Yining, the princess of Xiaojun, how do you feel?"
A piece of meat that comes out of his belly, how can a mother not know. Even if Ying didn't say it yet, Li Zhao could feel whether his daughter's mood was good or bad. It seems that it is good to go on such a trip today.
Lian Ying smiled: "Mother, it is naturally excellent." "I didn't say anything else.
"That's right, mother. Sister Yining said that three days later, she would take me to the banquet of Lin Shiyao, the daughter of the squire of the Ministry of War, and then said that this is my first appearance, and it is best to prepare a poem, or paint at that time, show your talents, and leave a good impression on everyone. ”
Li Zhao agreed very much: "What your sister Yining said is not wrong." ”
"Then, mother, do you have any good ways to guide me?" As she spoke, Lian Ying grabbed her mother's hand and shook it.
Li Zhao is really grateful to Tang Yining now, not only for bringing such a big change to Ying'er, but also willing to take her to the banquet of the ladies in Beijing hand in hand, and open up people for her step by step
Veins.
"By the way, what kind of dress should I wear that day? Do you want to wear something bright, or maybe it's not too eye-catching? ”
However, Li Zhao has been following Lian Lian outside for many years, and his impression of these things is also stuck in a few years ago, and he doesn't have any better ideas for a while, so the mother and daughter can't help but get entangled.
"Otherwise, after all, you are also the first time to come to the door, prepare a gift, use your own embroidery, make it yourself, can not only show your sincerity, but also give gifts, and do not have to worry about someone embarrassing you." Kill more than one stone.
Under Tang Yining's enlightenment, Lian Ying has looked down on her a lot, so she is a little annoyed by some of her past behaviors: "Mother, I really shouldn't give up on myself in order to avoid others, except for the female red, I don't seem to have learned anything." ”
It's just that, in the eyes of a mother, where is there a bad child? Besides, it's not her fault that Lian Ying will become like this, but it's just that others are not good.
Li Zhao looked at Lian Ying's eyes and became very gentle, and she brushed the broken hair between Lian Ying's forehead.
"It's okay, everything is getting better, isn't it? You have a lot of time to learn later, take your time, and make a little progress. Besides, we don't need to show it to others, I just want you to be well. ”
It can be said that if it weren't for the fear that Lian Ying might not be able to marry and it would be difficult to find a good husband, Li Zhao would not want Lian Ying to cater to anyone at all. There is nothing wrong with being carefree and easy.
Lian Ying was stunned for a moment and nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, mother, I will study hard in the future!"
In the end, the two thought about it again and decided to let Lian Ying come to the door with their embroidery three days later, but before they did it, there was a new problem.
"Mother, do you say it's better to embroider handkerchiefs or sachets? Or is it something else? It's a bit too much to send close-fitting clothes, after all, it's not a good friend, and people will have to be embarrassed whether to wear it or not. Then it's not about giving a gift, it's about giving someone a question. Lian Ying thought a little tangled.
In the end, Li Zhao couldn't stand it anymore, and directly decided: "Just send a handkerchief!" It's best to pick a pattern that she can't refuse and embroider it on. ”
Lian Ying thought about it, and her eyes lit up: "It's too!" Still, mother. I don't have to send a pattern, I can embroider one of her favorite poems on it and embroider the scene from the poem! ”
Li Zhao was very happy and even Ying had his own thoughts: "What you said is also very good, then do what you say." ”
With an idea, it would be very uncomfortable not to do it, so Lian Ying hurriedly ran back to his room.
"Good! Mother, I'll go back first. ”
"You run slower and be careful of falling. Left and right...... "Don't rush for a while."
Watching Lian Ying's figure slowly disappear, Li Zhao's eyes were as gentle as water.
"Jin Zhi, you say, am I dreaming now? You know, what I want to see most is that Ying'er can be like this, full of vitality and a smile on her face. I really didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would actually be able to see this scene. ”
