Chapter 9: Rising to the Top

The girl, who was already quiet, saw Mo Li walking to the stage, and became active again for a while.

"It's really not a shame, she can play the piano just like this? If she wants to play the piano, I'll eat it! A young girl said proudly, completely thinking about the shameful act of plucking the strings before.

"Oh, it's really overwhelming!" The woman who had just mocked Mo Li also spoke.

For a while, everyone in the audience was talking again, and the ridicule continued.

"Everybody's quiet!"

Hearing Sister Qiu's words, everyone who said everything you said instantly became silent again.

After the audience was quiet, Sister Qiu signaled that Moli could start, but her expression was also not optimistic, and she just hoped that this girl would not break the strings again.

When everyone was quiet, Mo Li, who was standing on the high platform, could almost hear the sound of his heart beating violently, and swallowed lightly, Mo Li began to try to slowly put his trembling hand on the strings......

The cold strings seemed to tug at Mo Li's tense heartstrings at this time, making Mo Li seem to feel a sense of suffocation.

With everyone's eyes, Mo Li tentatively plucked a string.

"Zheng~" A tune came out in response to Mo Li's movements, and Mo Li, who played the tune, seemed to be startled by the sudden rising voice.

The people around looked at Mo Li's trembling expression and movements, their eyes became more contemptuous, and even some girls couldn't help but chuckle, Sister Qiu didn't stop it, in fact, she also felt a little funny, but she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

However, what no one knew was that the moment the voice came out, Mo Li felt as if his whole person had changed, as if his stubborn illness had been cured in an instant for many years, his violently beating heart was slowly calming down, and his face was no longer showing a look of fear, but an absolute confidence, an expression of confidence in himself.

Mo Li put his hand on the strings again, and this time it seemed so natural, just like holding chopsticks during a meal, but Mo Li only put his hands on it, and there was no other movement for a long time.

The girls in the audience looked at Mo Li, who began to be in a daze after only playing a tune, and they couldn't help but laugh constantly,

"I bet she'd never seen the piano before, and she froze when she reacted......," a girl sneered, leaning back and sneering, and then reaching out to make a grimace at Mo Li.

Sister Qiu also saw Mo Li standing in front of the piano for a long time, and she was about to open her mouth to let Mo Li step down, but before she could speak, she saw that Mo Li's hands on the strings finally began to move.

Slender fingertips, constantly plucking on the strings.

The smooth, clear melody flows from your fingertips, as cheerful and natural as a fish playing in the water.

The beautiful and smooth tune stunned Sister Qiu and the girls in the audience for a while, and the hand that Sister Qiu wanted to stop stopped in mid-air awkwardly.

Flipping, tactful, and provocative...... Every movement is impeccable, and every gesture is deeply obsessive.

This song by Mo Li makes even people who don't know anything about piano skills can see that their skills are superb, so that people who don't know piano music can also be deeply immersed in it for a long time......

After a song was played, everyone was silent, and in the end, it was Sister Qiu who came back to her senses first, and her opinion of Moli also changed a lot.

Today's Sister Qiu inadvertently mistakenly identified Mo Li as a woman who came to attract the favor of the three princes under the rare circumstances, and for this kind of person, Sister Qiu didn't like it in her heart, and she could even say that she was a little disgusted, but what she didn't understand was why Mo Li, the daughter of a big family, would wear cloth clothes to take the exam, is it grandstanding? Sister Qiu secretly guessed in her heart, and her attitude towards Mo Li was instantly much colder.

"It's okay, let's go down!" Sister Qiu said coldly.

Hearing Sister Qiu's voice, Mo Li hurriedly lowered his head and hurriedly walked off the stage.

Even she didn't know what was going on with everything just now, she just felt subconsciously, yes, subconsciously! It's like screaming subconsciously when it hurts.

In fact, for Mo Li, Mo Li had a very strong memory at the beginning, coupled with the continuous urging of several masters, the increasingly practiced qin, chess, calligraphy and painting have been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, just like talking, even if the amnesia can still speak, the piano will naturally play, these things in the depths of memory have not been forgotten because of amnesia, and all she needs is a strong stimulus from the outside world.

Everyone looked at Mo Li, who walked to the stage, and was a little silent for a while, and the people who had made sarcastic remarks about Mo Li before all hid in the crowd one by one, as for the girl who had just opened Mo Li's mouth and would eat the piano if she could play the piano, she had already sneaked out of the backyard in embarrassment.

"The next item, test the chess skills, and those who pass the piano skills can come to the stage in turn." Sister Qiu said.

This time there were very few people, and those who remained no longer came with the intention of trying their luck, but even with all their might, they could not slow down the pace of elimination.

One by one, they came to power, and one after another. In this way, it was soon Mo Li's turn to test again.

Seeing Mo Li on stage, Sister Qiu deliberately wanted to embarrass her, the previous people only needed to know some basic knowledge of chess to pass, but she was asked to crack an endgame.

Sister Qiu looked at Mo Li, who was looking at the chessboard in a daze, and said a little proudly: "If you can't, you can go down." ”

She just plans to force this kind of eldest lady to go back where she came from, so that she will know how difficult to retreat.

However, Mo Li's eyes only trembled slightly, and in less than a cup of tea before, Mo Li had never left a son.

However, as soon as Sister Qiu's words fell, I didn't know if Mo Li had the intention to embarrass Sister Qiu or not, anyway, I saw Mo Li pick up a few pieces and quickly fall down, and then these seemingly random actions made the form of the chess game on the case instantly have a shocking reversal.

"This ......" Sister Qiu's eyes widened in disbelief.

"This is an ancient endgame, how can it be ...... so easily" Sister Qiu thought silently in her heart, carefully verifying it over and over again, after a stick of incense, after determining that the endgame was indeed cracked by Mo Li, Sister Qiu could only sigh helplessly, and thought in her heart, it seems that this time she has encountered a hard stubble, although she is a little reluctant, but Sister Qiu still announced to everyone: "The test has passed." ”

In the later two tests of calligraphy and painting, there is no doubt that Mo Li passed the test easily, even if Sister Qiu continued to find fault and constantly increase the difficulty of Mo Li's test, she still failed to stop Mo Li by half a point.

After the test was completed, Sister Qiu, who had a decadent face and could be said to have accepted her fate, led the five people who passed the test to the housekeeper to register.

It was almost evening, and Mo Li hurriedly returned to Mrs. Pang's house.

Seeing that Mo Li was back, Mrs. Pang hurriedly greeted her worriedly: "Li'er is back, why is it so late?" Did something happen on the way? If you're a little late, Grandma will go out looking for you! One question after another didn't care about Mo Li's answer, and the words were all filled with deep concern for Mo Li.

Mo Li's eyes were hot and said: "Grandma, Li'er is fine, Li'er went to participate in the selection of the three princes' maids, and our life will be better in the future." ”

"The selection of the maids of the three princes? I've heard of it, but the conditions are extremely harsh, and Li'er passed? Mrs. Pang wondered.

For a person with amnesia, it is basically impossible, but looking at the happy Moli and the many things Moli carried, Mrs. Pang still couldn't help asking.

"Yes, I passed, na, this is the meat and vegetables I bought, and there are two taels of silver here, these are the settling-in fees given to me by the Three Emperors' Mansion, you take these grandma first." With that, Mo Li happily handed the rest of the money to Mrs. Pang.

"This can't work, you still have the money, grandma is old, she can't spend money, she has a chance to leave her son, and grandma is happy for you. I just want you to be a maid for others, and I have wronged you. Mrs. Pang was talking, but the corners of her eyes unconsciously shed muddy tears.

"Grandma, why are you crying, Li'er eats well in the Three Princes' Mansion, and some of them don't cost money at all, you still have this money, otherwise Li'er will be unhappy, and grandma, you don't know, how many people are vying to be the maids of the Three Princes, how can they be wronged? Grandma, you can rest assured, but in this way, you may leave your son in the future...... I can't come to see you often," I thought of this, and Mo was a little reluctant.

Mrs. Pang looked at the sensible and well-behaved Li'er and said with relief: "Grandma's old bones can last for a few more years, you don't have to worry, okay, since this is the case, then Grandma will accept this money for you for the time being, and save it for my family Li'er as a dowry later." ”

"Grandma!" Li'er heard Mrs. Pang making fun of herself, and pouted coquettishly.

Mrs. Pang smiled: "Hehe, Li'er is shy, don't say anything, let's go to dinner." ”

A cozy dinner is especially precious in the dilapidated thatched hut, and the three of them are happy, but the thought of tomorrow's separation, the joy is mixed with some sadness.
