Xu Nuo has been exposed to tea ceremony for half a month, and it is really amazing to achieve such results. In the eyes of others, she may really be able to surpass Xu Gulei. [Read the latest chapter] But she knew it was impossible, because she was not a child who first came into contact with tea ceremony at the age of twelve. Her mental age was twenty-four, and she had been exposed to tea ceremony for at least fourteen years, which was no more than a few years younger than Xu Gulei.
When Xu Nuo was speaking, Xu Qian, who was sitting next to Zhang, glanced at Xu Nuo faintly, turned to say something to Zhang, and Zhang's face was suddenly filled with smiles.
After greeting everyone in the house, she sat down in front of her dining table. She ate and slept silently. The whole family ate their dinner quietly. It wasn't until the maid came out with the utensils she had used to rinse her mouth that Old Mrs. Xu spoke. : "Lao San, Si Niang, Liu Niang, and Zi Ye all did well today and will be rewarded."
There was no joy in his voice, it was very flat.
The maid came up with four tea cages. Xu Gulei, Xu Qian, Xu Nuo and Zhang Xian stepped forward to take them with both hands and said some auspicious words.
Only then did Mr. Xu laugh: "This is the best tea this year. You are good at this, and it will be useful for you."
Xunuo suddenly felt that the light tea cage in her hand became very heavy. She remembered that the birthday gift her grandfather gave to Mrs. Ding was also this kind of tea.
Zhang also rewarded Xu Qian and Xu Nuo with a gold hairpin each.
"Ziye, I heard that you made a song called "Drunken Bian" today, which was praised by your second cousin and Ding Tongpan. Why don't you read it and let your cousins learn from it?" Mrs. Zhang smiled with a smile on her face. The meaning is a promise of kindness that I have never seen in this year.
When Xu Nuo was reading in her previous life, she thought that Zhang Xian was a handsome and elegant young man. After all, he had a good relationship with a nun when he was young, and even married a young woman in his seventies. This kind of thing is not something ordinary people would do. Most of his poems wrote about male love and female love, which was similar to the sorrow of divorce. However, he turned out to be a rigid person, speaking and doing things in a rigid manner. It was really different from his style of writing. She had to wonder whether those poems were written by him. .
Zhang Xian made a compliment, without refusing, and began to recite: "Double butterflies embroidered Luoqun, banquet in Dongchi, first meeting. The vermilion powder is not deep and even, the idle flowers are light and spring. Look carefully at everything, everyone is humane, and the willow waist is . Yesterday, the mountains were in chaos and it was dark. When I came here, my clothes were covered with clouds."
Xu Nuo’s first reaction was: It’s really him!
How could such a stubborn and rigid person come up with such words?
Then she realized that this poem was quite familiar to her. It was one of the 300 Song poems.
Everyone praised her, but Ding said disdainfully: "Since it's a tea fight, why did you make such a song? It doesn't match." The two daughters behaved normally during the tea fight, but it made Lu Shi famous. She was originally because of Ding Mo's incident. Worried, and even more angry today, I said these words inadvertently.
Mrs. Zhang's face immediately dropped, and just as she was about to speak, Mrs. Zhong said: "Sister-in-law, they must have spoken about Mrs. Ding's birthday today, and that's why they made such a comment. It was so spontaneous, but it has such a good effect. Words are really rare." After saying this, he nodded to Zhang Xian to show his appreciation.
Xu Nuo found that Mrs. Zhang's face looked better. The third aunt responded so quickly and was really good at smoothing things over. No wonder Mrs. Zhang liked her. My mother would never please the Zhang family in this way, and of course she didn't have to do this. First, the mother's natal family was strong enough, and second, the father was a descendant of the Zhang family, while the third uncle was a concubine, so the concubine's daughter-in-law and the legitimate daughter-in-law still had the same status. disparity.
Mrs. Ding realized that she had hit a bad end, and immediately changed her words: "If you think about it carefully, it is indeed a good word." She won't say any more words.
Xu Gulei suddenly spoke and said with a smile: "I am not very knowledgeable, but I feel that Ziye's words were inspired by his emotions. Did he see the woman he liked when he was in Ding's house?" He had a lively personality, and no one was surprised when he said such words. .
"Third cousin, don't make fun of me. How could I..." Mrs. Zhang spoke before he could finish.
"I think you're twenty-two years old, why haven't you engaged yet? If you really like a girl, tell me and I'll help you negotiate."
Although Zhang Xian remained expressionless, he did not speak, and there was some hesitation in his expression.
Xu Nuo was keenly aware that his hesitation was just a pretense. Why was he pretending?
"There is a double butterfly in my cousin's poem. Could it be that the woman is wearing a skirt with butterfly patterns?" Xu Qian said with a smile, her words were playful, which made Mrs. Zhang laugh.
Xu Erniang remained silent. She hated Xu Qian and Xu Nuo, but what she hated more was Xu Nuo. She had only been exposed to tea ceremony for half a month and surpassed her. Why?
Today, the praise from my grandparents was supposed to be mine, but it was taken away by the evil person like Xu Nui.
"I remember that there was a delicate butterfly on the gold hairpin that Liu Niang wore the day before yesterday. I don't know where she bought it. My child also wants to buy one." Xu Erniang asked Ding casually, her voice was not loud or quiet, just enough for everyone to hear clearly.
Thinking of Xu Erniang's words and Xu Gulei's and Xu Qian's words, Xu Nuo couldn't help but be stunned.
Tried her again?
It's not enough to make her an unfilial person, but he also puts the four words "privately giving and receiving" over her head. Is it to force her to commit suicide to show her innocence?
If Zhang Xianruo was just wishful thinking, how could he read this poem out so generously? It must be a matter of mutual consent in the eyes of everyone.
Thinking of Xu Qian's faint look before entering the house, Xu Nuo was so angry that her teeth were about to break. She found that it was really easy to get angry when in contact with Xu Qian, because she would plot against you all the time.
It's easy to hide from open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows. Xu Nuo thought that Xu Qian would play tricks on the tea fight, but she didn't expect that Xu Qian would collude with Zhang Xian to frame her, and the way was so "tactful and elegant" that she suddenly didn't realize that this was a trap.
The elders present must have thought that she and Zhang Xian fell in love at first sight two days ago. Zhang Xian wrote the lyrics for her, but he was too embarrassed to write "golden butterfly flying on blue silk" and wrote "double butterfly embroidered skirt".
No wonder he was pretending to be hesitant just now.
When Xu Nuo raised her head, she found that everyone in the room was looking at her. Although she was angry, she was not dizzy with anger. In a flash of light, she remembered that Zhang Xian's poem was originally given to prostitutes during a banquet, but It's a homemade tune.
Thinking of this, she relaxed, with innocent and puzzled eyes: "It's just a gold hairpin. Everyone wants it. The master craftsman has been very tired these days." It's easy to pretend to be innocent.
Lu was a little worried, and her eyes signaled Xu Nuo not to speak.
Xu Nuo pretended not to understand: "Mom, why are you looking at me? Is there something wrong with my headdress that day?"
Mrs. Lu wanted to speak but stopped.
Xu Erniang sneered and said: "You are too fast..."
Mrs. Ding hurriedly took Xu Erniang's hand and stopped her from talking. Anyone who would make this matter clear would be a gun-headed bird.
Xu Erniang reluctantly shut up. This was a great opportunity to humiliate Xu Erniang. Why did her mother hold her back?
"Actually..." Zhang Xian was about to speak, with a big smile on Xu Nuo's face.
Everyone's expressions changed again.
