Wu Sheyue stepped forward, performed a standard salute, and said respectfully: "Yue'er has met her mother, eldest sister, and Miss Jiang."
But they didn't seem to hear it. As soon as Wu Sheyue finished speaking, Jiang Ying burst into hearty laughter. She urged Jiang Qingxue repeatedly: "Hahaha, aunt, you are so funny, what happens next?"
Wu Liuyun interrupted with a smile, "Then she was so frightened that she apologized to my mother. Do you even have to ask?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Ying started laughing again. This made Jiang Qingxue scold her and said: "You, smile softly, you look like a girl!"
Wu Sheyue was not prepared to maintain this painful posture. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she stood up straight casually and naturally, and scanned the surroundings, planning to find a chair.
Ning'er was very obedient now and immediately followed her.
Jiang Qingxue, who was chatting over there, stopped smiling and frowned: "Yue'er, I haven't told you to wake up yet."
Wu Sheyue looked at her in astonishment and said: "Ah... I thought my mother didn't see it, so I kept talking to others and ignored me. I was about to get up and do it all over again~ It turns out that my mother saw it. ah."
Jiang Qingxue was displeased for a moment, Wu Sheyue actually dared to click on her! Then he said with a cold face: "You... come here, Lixiang hasn't arrived yet."
Wu Sheyue took a deep breath and walked over.
It was difficult to see other expressions on Wu Liuyun's paralyzed face, but Jiang Ying was smiling and never angry. As soon as Wu Sheyue came over, she immediately took Wu Sheyue's hand and said very affectionately: "Oh, how come? With the sun gone, sister Yue'er is getting more and more beautiful, and I almost don't dare to admit it."
Ning'er, who was standing aside, had cold sweat on her forehead. Every time Jiang Ying wanted to tease Wu Sheyue in the past, she would coax him away with such a warm look. She can be regarded as a real wolf in sheep's clothing, so seeing her like this made Ning'er feel frightened.
But Wu Sheyue learned to be like Wu Liuyun today, put on a formulaic smile, and said very respectfully: "Miss Jiang is so complimentary."
"It's so unfamiliar~" Jiang Ying was a little displeased and let go of Wu Sheyue's hand aggrievedly.
Wu Sheyue had a hehe look on her face, "Come on, come on, please ask me to sit down and talk first. I promise that I will be more than a little enthusiastic with you."
"Okay, Yue'er is recovering from her illness and doesn't recognize you very much." Jiang Qingxue comforted Jiang Ying, and then said to Wu Sheyue: "You two have a good relationship before. Yingying often comes to the house to play with you. You should be both Forget it.”
Wu Sheyue smiled gently and said: "I have indeed forgotten, but it doesn't matter. Even if I forget what Miss Jiang did to me, I will still remember that friendship in my heart."
Seeing Wu Sheyue looking at her like this, her eyes piercing into her heart, Jiang Ying suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Qingxue smiled happily and said: "You two have a good relationship, and I am happy in my heart. Yue'er has already thought about what to show at the Hundred Flowers Banquet?" This was the reason to call her over to prepare for the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
Wu Sheyue showed a trace of worry and said sadly: "Hey, Yue'er doesn't have any talent. She can only write poems, but if she goes to write poems in front of the Queen Mother, it will look like she has memorized it. What if it happens again? I’m so nervous that I can’t do anything… Yue’er can’t think of what to do.”
Jiang Qingxue nodded regretfully, "It's really inappropriate to write poetry. I'd better think of another way."
Jiang Ying also suggested enthusiastically: "I would also advise Sister Yue'er to change her poems. What's the point of writing poems? Most men like this. Why don't you focus on good looks and make a colorful one?"
Wu Sheyue accepted it humbly, "Yeah, I've thought about it that way too. But the four gentlemen of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting... you can't learn the piano in a while, it's not easy to display chess, and you can't read books... Then let's paint. .I think painting is easier."
Jiang Qingxue's eyes lit up, "That's fine, as long as you have a choice. Liuyun has some practice paintings here. You can use them to draw and copy. I remember that you painted your grandmother's bird feathers. , I guess you learn quickly too.”
Wu Sheyue did not mention making wood carvings again, and Jiang Qingxue and others were too happy not to remind her. The bird flew away last time. If she runs on the ground again this time, she won't be able to take any limelight.
"Thank you, mother. With my eldest sister's paintings, I should be able to learn quickly." Wu Sheyue was very happy. The smile on his lips became more and more overflowing.
Use Wu Liuyun's practice paintings to copy them as a gift for the Queen Mother? She really dared to say it! She suppressed the concubine and promoted the legitimate daughter in this way. She should really tell the old lady that her concubine would not be able to marry and would be useless. Some people just don’t understand, what’s the use of always competing for the top spot in your own family, why not find a way to compare with other girls~
When Wu Liuyun and Jiang Ying saw Wu Sheyue's grateful look, they both looked at each other calmly, with smiles that couldn't be hidden on their faces. However, these actions were also seen by Wu Sheyue.
These people kept talking, and no one asked Wu Sheyue to sit down.
At this moment, Jiang Qingxue slapped her forehead again and sighed: "Hey, I forgot to bring soup to the old lady."
Wu Sheyue raised her eyebrows. When did the old lady get into the habit of drinking soup in the afternoon~
Wu Liuyun said to her hurriedly: "Mom, go quickly. Grandma is important. It's okay for us to be a little later."
"That's fine, I have to go there first." Jiang Qingxue said and stood up to leave. Before she left, she pulled Wu Sheyue and warned her, "Yue'er, Miss Jiang has participated in the Hundred Flowers Banquet twice. She is very experienced. , you have to learn with an open mind. Also, let your eldest sister teach you more about painting techniques. If you are more serious, it will not be difficult to learn."
"Yes." Wu Sheyue responded quickly.
"I'm going to leave first. You three have a good chat. Lixiang will be here soon. You two should teach your sister more." Jiang Qingxue told them again before going out.
Jiang Ying walked her all the way to the door, and said lively and loudly from behind: "I know, aunt, don't worry."
Jiang Qingxue's words before leaving could be regarded as completely handing Wu Sheyue into the hands of Wu Liuyun and Jiang Ying. After Jiang Qingxue walked away, Wu Liuyun changed into an attitude of watching a good show and sat back on the small kang. His whole person looked different from the aloof person he usually was.
Wu Sheyue felt that Ning'er was right. Wu Liuyun was usually fine, but once he got together with Jiang Ying... it was really like rotten fish and shrimps contaminating each other.
Jiang Ying sent Jiang Qingxue away and closed the door. When she came back, she had a meaningful smile on her face, which seemed to be more calculated and less enthusiastic, which made people uncomfortable to see. (To be continued)
