Chapter Twenty-Five: Ink Chrysanthemum Fights for Color
"Painting?" Lord Jinghe was the first to speak.
Immediately afterwards, Wen Jin's words caused an uproar.
"She can only paint? It seems that there is really no other talent to take. ”
"No wonder everyone says that the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion is virtuous and virtuous, with both talent and virtue, although she is a concubine, she is the most outstanding girl in the Prime Minister's Mansion, is this really the case?"
Qingxi couldn't listen anymore, so he said loudly, "Since Miss Su wants to paint, it's not too late to say anything else after seeing the painting." ”
Yun Jin also said, "The eldest sister likes to be quiet, and she likes to dance and ink the most on weekdays, and the eldest sister is quite accomplished in paintings, so you will know it when you see it." ”
I don't know which young lady snorted coldly, "I'd like to see what she can draw." ”
Song Wanru immediately reprimanded, "Sister, don't talk nonsense. ”
Originally, everyone didn't know which young lady made such arrogant words, but now as soon as Song Wanru opened her mouth, everyone knew that the person who spoke was Song Wanxin.
It seems that the friendship between the sisters of the Song family is really deep?
Song Wanxin was also embarrassed, originally she wanted to use this to curry favor with Su Yujin. didn't expect his sister-in-law to stab her in the back.
The county lord of Jinghe glanced at the eldest princess of Chaoyang aggrievedly, and the eldest princess of Chaoyang quietly gave the county lord Jinghe a reassuring look.
"In that case, let's ask Miss Su to paint!" Princess Chaoyang commanded.
Wen Jin stepped forward and gave a salute, "Yes." ”
The maids and maids of the princess's mansion have already brought up all the things used for painting.
Wen Jin walked gracefully and walked to the table. A brand-new brush hangs on a pen stand, and a corner of the table is filled with ink.
Wen Jin dipped his pen in ink, but he only dipped it in black ink. In the stunned eyes of everyone, Wen Jin picked up the pen and painted.
One of the men in the men's seat said in surprise, "Is this an ink painting?" ”
When everyone heard this, they all set their eyes on the rice paper on which Wen Jin waved his pen freely.
After a quarter of an hour, Wen Jin put down the brush. He bowed down and said, "The courtier has finished painting, and I invite the eldest princess to check it." ”
The eldest princess had a look of surprise on her face, but her tone was light, "Come on, present the painting." ”
Two little maids carefully presented the painting. The eldest princess looked at it casually, but her face became solemn.
Lord Jinghe also leaned over to take a look, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes.
When everyone saw this scene, they all showed curious looks.
After a long time, the eldest princess of Chaoyang came back to her senses, and her face softened a little, "Miss Su's ink chrysanthemum is indeed a beautiful work, I don't know where Miss Su studied from?" ”
Wen Jin smiled, "The courtiers didn't really learn to paint, but they just slowly honed their daily idle brushes." ”
The eldest princess of Chaoyang had a shocked look on her face, and only after a moment did she smile gently, "Sure enough, it is a beautiful painting, and Miss Su really deserves the name of a talented woman." ”
Wen Jin gave a humble salute, "Princess Miao praised." ”
"Alright, take the painting down carefully, and let the young ladies enjoy it!" The eldest princess commanded.
Wen Jin sat quietly in his seat, and Qingxi on the side whispered, "Look at the eyes of those people, Fang Cai's disdainful look is no longer there. ”
Wen Jin smiled lightly, "I'm just using a little trick to carve insects." Ink painting is not difficult to make, but others dare not try it. ”
Qingxi hid his face and snickered, "Don't be modest anymore, everyone knows that this ink painting is the most exquisite charm." ”
After the ink painting was looked at, Princess Chaoyang said, "I like the ink chrysanthemum made by Miss Su very much, I wonder if Miss Su can give it to the palace?" ”
Wen Jinying smiled, "The princess likes it, it's a blessing for this painting." Wenjin should be sent away. ”
The eldest princess was overjoyed when she heard this, "Since this palace has taken your painting, it will naturally not be in vain." There is a pair of purple hostas here in this palace, which is suitable for the amethyst jewelry you are wearing today. I'll give it to you. ”
Wen Jin looked flattered, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is really polite, Wen Jin is ashamed." ”
Princess Chaoyang waved her hand and said, "Since you don't accept it, don't you dislike it?" ”
Wen Jin hurriedly said, "Wen Jin doesn't dare, Wen Jin thanks Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
The eldest princess laughed at this time.
Lord Jinghe sat silently beside Princess Chaoyang and did not make a sound. Because she knew that after this incident, her aunt would also follow the example of Buddha Su Wenjin.
Others may not know, but she knows that Aunt Chaoyang's concubine in the past is good at ink painting. It's just that the colt died many years ago because of his aunt.
The talent show at the banquet was still in full swing. Each lady also has her own talent and style. The sons of each family are also quite proficient in literary and martial arts archery.
By the time the banquet was over, it was already sunset. In the meantime, Miss Childe also had lunch in the hall.
After Wen Jin said goodbye to Qingxi, he walked outside the house with Yujin and Wen Jin.
A little maid hurriedly stopped Wen Jin, "Miss Su, please stay." ”
Wen Jin stopped, and when he saw the maid's makeup, he knew that the princess had sent her, so he asked, "I don't know what the princess ordered?" ”
The maid was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that Miss Su would know her intention. After a moment, the maid smiled and said, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess asked the slave maid to inform Miss Su that if there is any difficulty in the future, you can come to the princess's mansion with a purple jade hairpin, and the princess will definitely help." ”
Wen Jin's face was grateful, "Please thank Her Royal Highness the Princess for me." ”
"The slave has written it down, Miss Su, please go slowly."
On the carriage, Wen Jin was almost drowsy, but his mind was extremely lucid.
What you do today can be regarded as what you like. There is a secret letter in the Wenguo Mansion, which records the preferences of the nobles in the capital. The eldest princess loves ink painting, and naturally she is also in it.
Chunrongtang, the old lady is also happy. Today's flower-viewing banquet, not only the Wenjin is in the limelight, but the jade brocade is not inferior, and even the Yunjin is also a little stylish.
The three girls of the Prime Minister's Mansion are all outstanding, how can they not make the old lady happy?
The old lady lovingly commanded, "I'm tired all day, go back and rest!" ”
The three girls saluted in unison and said, "Yes, the granddaughter is leaving." ”
There are only two people in the inner room of Chunrong Hall, the old lady and Mama Zhang. Mama Zhang smiled and praised, "The three girls in the house are all top-notch, and in the future, after the marriage, won't the people who come to propose marriage break the threshold?" ”
The old lady also smiled "hehe", and said unequivocally, "My three granddaughters are all good." Whoever marries back will be a blessing for them. ”
Mama Zhang hurriedly responded, "That's natural, the girls in our prime minister's mansion are naturally top-notch." ”
The old lady was overjoyed and had not forgotten the important matter, "Now that the flower-viewing banquet is over, the next thing is the entry of the step-lady into the house." Take care of the good students, and don't let people with ulterior motives take advantage of the loopholes. ”
Mama Zhang hurriedly responded cautiously, "Yes, the old slave knows." ”
The old lady closed her eyes for a moment, and then suddenly said, "I heard that the third prince sent a gift to Sister Wen from the frontier?" ”
Mama Zhang replied cautiously, "Yes, the third prince sent the housekeeper to send it, and he didn't avoid people." ”
The old lady wrinkled her eyebrows and thought for a moment before she spoke, "Since this is the case, the third prince naturally has no intention of hiding it." It can be seen that the third prince is interested in Sister Wen. ”
Mama Zhang said suspiciously, "The third prince only said that it was to repay the kindness of the eldest lady who gave the peace charm that day. ”
The old lady snorted coldly, "The old body has lived for so many years, can't you still see through the junior's mind?" These three princes are obviously drunkards, not drinking. ”
When Mama Zhang heard this, she was careful not to speak easily.
The old lady said, "Let's take one step at a time!" Sister Wen is what I value, so naturally I can't be confused. ”
Nuan Wen Pavilion, Wen Jin took out the purse he received at today's flower appreciation banquet. Today's flower viewing banquet, Han Yuanxi is naturally there. It's just that he was afraid of the difference between men and women, so he didn't speak.
It's just that when I was returning home, a little maid bumped into Zhuqing's body. This purse was also passed on.
The purse is small, and the contents are also lightweight. The little white rabbit jade pendant carved from mutton fat white jade is indeed cute and exquisite.
Wen Jin smiled and put the little white jade rabbit in the palm of his hand and played with it carefully. Over the years, Han Yuanxi has given her a lot of good things, all of which she put in a separate box.
After playing for a long time, the cool little white jade rabbit also has warmth. When Wen Jin was reluctant to put it down, Zhu Ye took a rosewood box, "Miss, where should I put this thing?" ”
Wen Jin knew that there were three flaming snow foxes inside, so he said casually, "Pack a separate box and put it away properly!" ”
After this thing was interrupted, Wen Jin had no intention of playing with the jade rabbit. She still couldn't understand why the third prince gave her a thank you gift?
In Luoxue Garden, Yujin was both happy and dissatisfied with Aunt Song about what happened during the flower appreciation banquet.
Aunt Song comforted, "There are pros and cons to this matter, so you don't have to think about it anymore." You're also shining. ”
Yujin couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, "What my mother said is that the dance on the drum made by her daughter is even ashamed of Jinghe County Lord?" ”
Aunt Song also smiled with satisfaction.
Yujin looked at Aunt Song's already pregnant belly today, and she was also very happy. Gently stroked and said, "Brother! You grow up quickly, and when you grow up, my sister will find a way to make you the concubine of the Prime Minister's house. ”
Aunt Song's face stiffened when she heard this, and as soon as she grabbed Yujin's wrist, she said with a resolute face, "Yu'er, don't worry, even if the Gao family enters the mansion, the mother will do her best to make you a concubine." ”
Yujin was now calm, and comforted softly, "Mother, the most important thing for you now is to give birth to your younger brother safely." Don't think about it so much just now. Time is long, we don't need to rush. ”
When Aunt Song heard this, she couldn't help but nod with relief, "Yu'er, you have really grown up!" My mother is really happy. ”
"There are still two years, and before you reach the end of the year, my mother will definitely make you a concubine." Aunt Song's eyes were resolute and fierce.
Yujin said softly, "Well, my daughter believes in my mother." ”
