Chapter 40: The Jumping Beam Clown

Bai Qingqing hasn't even said a complete sentence yet.

Seeing Bai Qingqing standing there with a stalemate on his face, his chest rising and falling, Jiang Wanxiu smiled charmingly, her eyes were full of coldness, and she sneered:

"Sister, don't be sad, if you want to climb to the top of the royal family, it will take some energy, don't be in a hurry!"

Bai Qingqing's face suddenly turned pale, and Jiang Wanwen and Lin Xuanran on the side looked at her as if they were watching a joke after listening to Jiang Wanxiu's words.

If she gets angry and goes back to the past now, it will only make them feel that it is true, and she can't do that on such occasions.

Bai Qingqing pressed her trembling lips, raised the corners of her mouth, squeezed out a few smiles on her face, and said, "Where did my sister come from with such words, I just stepped forward to say hello." ”

Hearing her say such a bold word, the corners of Jiang Wanxiu's eyes twitched, was she really blind?

But he still smiled slightly, was gentle and elegant, and said, "Haha, that's my sister misunderstood my sister." ”

Bai Qingqing didn't speak, just pursed the corners of his lips lightly, it seemed that he didn't care, but the hatred in his heart was already full, and his hands were clenched, but he couldn't feel the palm that was about to be punctured by his fingertips.

The literary meeting is still going on, although Jiang Wanxiu is also good at poetry, but today she doesn't want to be too eye-catching, after all, too eye-catching will also attract jealous people, add some incidents, so she sat quietly in her seat and watched everything.

Bai Qingqing also sat next to Jiang Wanxiu, she knew that if she went out to talk to others at this time, she would definitely fall into a bad position.

She looked at Jiang Wanxiu's eyes and gradually became cold.

On this day, Jiang Wanxiu not only stole her own limelight, but was also presented with a hosta by Song Yuanxi, and had a conversation with Mo Zixuan.

Bai Qingqing wants to overwhelm Qunfang this time, where can she overpower herself.

The people around were talking about the competition between the women who were about to start, and Bai Qingqing found that when it came to the Jiang family, others only knew Jiang Wanxiu and Jiang Wanwen, and did not mention her at all.

hated her teeth so much that she strengthened her determination not to let Jiang Wanxiu come out. Bai Qingqing thought about it a little in his heart, and ordered the maid Xiaoyi to carry a bowl of soup and follow her back to her seat.

After Bai Qingqing sat down, he glanced at Jiang Wanxiu next to him.

Jiang Wanxiu was holding a pair of chopsticks and was about to pick up a preserved fruit, while talking to Jiang Wanwen next to her. Bai Qingqing took advantage of this opportunity to deliberately miss it, and the bowl of soup that Xiao Yi was holding was all poured on Jiang Wanxiu's right hand.

Under the hot soup, Jiang Wanxiu's chopsticks couldn't hold it, and they fell in response.

"Sister, your hand!" Jiang Wanwen was startled, and her face changed greatly.

Bai Qingqing got up like a whirlwind, slapped Xiao Yi twice with a bow left and right, and scolded, "Bastard thing." What the hell is going on, I poured the soup on the eldest lady's hand, do you want to die? Sister, how are your hands? ”

Jiang Wanxiu's right hand was scalded by the soup, red and swollen, and it hurt hotly. She knew in her heart that Bai Qingqing was deliberate.

Are you afraid that you will steal her limelight? Among the four women's arts, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, no matter which one requires hands, and now her hand is injured.

Xia Zhu's distressed tears were about to fall, "Come on, call the doctor." ”

As soon as the riot on this side started, it attracted everyone's attention. Before the Lin family's doctor arrived, Song Yuanxi's side had already sent the doctor over.

cleaned the wound with ice water, and put a cool and swelling medicine on Jiang Wanxiu, after applying the cool ointment, the hot pain on his hand disappeared instantly, and the effect was very good.

"Miss Jiang's injury is not serious, but within four or five days, this hand will not be able to be used." The doctor said, handing a bottle of ointment to Jiang Wanxiu, "This is medicine, wipe it once a day in the morning and evening." ”

Jiang Wanxiu thanked her, "Doctor Xie." ”

His eyes looked through him, looking at Song Yuanxi, who was sitting in the distance. He didn't seem to pay attention to this, he was talking to others, and Jiang Wanxiu immediately withdrew his gaze.

As soon as Jiang Wanxiu's gaze was removed, Song Yuanxi looked at her from a distance, her good-looking eyebrows slightly downcast.

She was injured.

"Miss Jiang, your hand is injured, let me take a look!" Mo Zixuan squeezed to the front at once, and reached out to pull Jiang Wanxiu's hand.

Jiang Wanxiu put her hands behind her back and smiled lightly, "Young Master Xie Mo cares." But it's not in the way, it's already bandaged. ”

Mo Zixuan realized that his action was too abrupt, he was embarrassed to scratch his head, touched his body, and said, "I didn't bring medicine when I went out, I'll send it to you when I go back." ”

Jiang Wanxiu pursed her lips and said, "Master Xie Mo is kind." The doctor has already prescribed medicine for me, no, thank you. ”

"Sister, it's all this cheap maid who is careless, the slave maid has slapped her hard, if you are not angry, you will be killed, and I will never say anything." Bai Qingqing said pretendedly.

Jiang Wanxiu glanced at Xiao Yi, who was kneeling on the ground and was beaten and her face swollen into steamed buns, and said lightly, "Be careful next time, how can you kill her." ”

Bai Qingqing kicked Xiaoyi, but he was very proud in his heart. ", don't you thank the eldest lady for sparing your life."

She sneered in her heart: Waste your hands and see how you are in the limelight.

Xiao Yi hurriedly kowtowed to Jiang Wanxiu, "Slave and maid, thank Miss for saving her life." ”

"Sister, your hand is injured like this, what can I do with this performance?" Jiang Wanwen looked at this scene with a smile and asked with concern.

As soon as he heard this, Bai Qingqing's heart tightened.

Jiang Wanxiu shook her head slightly and said, "I won't participate, I'll just watch." ”

"Alas, my sister doesn't have to be sad, and it's okay not to perform," Jiang Wanwen comforted. In his heart, he was as proud as Bai Qingqing.

The joy in Bai Qingqing's eyes couldn't be hidden at all, his eyebrows fluttered, and he almost clapped his hands.

After this episode, the competition between the women finally began. Although many people regret that Jiang Wanxiu injured her hand and couldn't see her talent, most of those ladies are very happy, there is less of a strong competitor, and they can perform well in front of many official talents.

For a time, in the main hall, playing the piano and painting, singing and blowing the flute, dancing and plucking the strings, singing and dancing to level out, dazzling to see.

After a while, it was Jiang Wanwen's turn. She works in calligraphy and painting, calligraphy and painting are the two best of all her talents, even if she is left in the midst of so many ladies, it is also the best, but she can usually go to very few banquets, rarely revealed.

Two guards carried a desk in the hall, Jiang Wanwen's maidservant spread out the rice paper, the ink had already been studied, and the pen was painted, and a summer lotus pond scene jumped on the paper.

The two maidservants lifted the painting, hung it on the easel that had been prepared a long time ago, pushed the easel for Lin Xuanran to taste first, and then went around along the Wenhui, and everyone praised it, making Jiang Wanwen satisfied.

Seeing that Jiang Wanwen was also so good, Bai Qingqing was extremely dissatisfied in his heart, and suddenly said, "Actually, our Jiang family's good painters are not only the second sister Jiang Wanwen, but Sister Wanxiu's paintings are also a must, sister, you can also paint one." ”

"Miss Cousin, our young lady has just been burned." Xia Zhu said indignantly.

Bai Qingqing looked at Jiang Wanxiu, as if smiling, "It's not in the way, it's just a little burned, presumably my sister won't mind." What's more, even if my sister only shows her usual strength of one or two points, she will definitely be able to amaze the audience, sister, please draw one. ”

As soon as the words fell, many people's eyes looked at Jiang Wanxiu, and the ladies were mostly teasing and funny, because everyone knew that the opponent who painted and wrote had the highest requirements, and now Jiang Wanxiu's hand was injured like this, let her paint, even if she is ten percent of her strength, she can only play two percent.

Isn't this deliberately trying to see Jiang Wanxiu make a fool of herself?

Bai Qingqing just wanted to see Jiang Wanxiu make a fool of herself. made Jiang Wanxiu lose face.

It's just that she is too shameless, she just burned others, and she is embarrassed to ask others to paint.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Jiang Wanxiu's hands are wrapped into zongzi, how can you hold a pen." Mo Zixuan snorted coldly and said unhappily,

"Aren't you her cousin? Is there such a pit sister as you? ”

Since Mo Zixuan met Jiang Wanxiu, he inexplicably had a good impression of her, and he didn't feel like other women who only flattered him.

As soon as Bai Qingqing saw Mo Zixuan coming out for Jiang Wanxiu, he hated it even more in his heart, but said with a smile on the surface, "Mo Gongzi doesn't know my sister's ability, the painting is very good, Zhong Jingbo and Song Shizi have seen it in person." Even if you are injured, you can definitely draw well. ”

Obviously praising Jiang Wanxiu is to force her to come up and paint, which is a killing.

At this moment, a woman's crisp voice appeared in the crowd, "Everyone says that the eldest lady of the Jiang family is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I don't know if it is not worthy of the name, and she doesn't dare to paint, is it fake." ”

Jiang Wanxiu followed the voice and looked at it, a richly dressed lady, beautiful, and looked at it, it turned out to be Cheng Yue'er who she had seen at Mrs. Song's birthday banquet last time.

She has always held a grudge against Jiang Wanxiu because of what happened last time, and this time, with Bai Qingqing's hands, she can see her making a fool of herself, how can she let it go easily.

As soon as her voice fell, another woman replied, "Yes, the little girl also wants to see and know, and she also invites Miss Jiang to come on stage to show her skills......

"If you refuse to paint, do you think we don't deserve to appreciate it?"

.........

The ladies suddenly made an uproar. A lot of them are Miss Qianjin who is with Zhang Ruolan, and there are many people I don't know.

Jiang Wanxiu also knew that she was treated special by Song Yuanxi, which had already made these people jealous, and now she was coaxing her to see her make a fool of herself.

Knowing that her right hand was burned and she couldn't hold a pen, she was still so aggressive.

Bai Qingqing saw that everyone was helping, and he felt proud in his heart.

Jiang Wanxiu, let you come out, you deserve to be hostile to you.

Jiang Wanxiu glanced around, there was not the slightest anger on her face, and said tepidly, "Thank you for looking up to it, but I want to explain first, I am not as powerful as my cousin said." ”

Song Yuanxi's eyes fell on Jiang Wanxiu, as soon as these words came out, everyone else thought that she was justifying that she couldn't paint, but he saw that this woman was about to explode.

"In other words, you don't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Cheng Yue'er said with a sneer.

If Jiang Wanxiu answers yes, she will immediately become a laughing stock who doesn't know anything. If the answer is no, she must be forced to perform one of them.
