"You, you did it on purpose!" Wu Jinghua was so furious that her fingers trembled with anger. Seeing this, Aunt Meng hurriedly came over to pull her away, fearing that her daughter would get angry and fight her again.
Wu Sheyue sneered and said: "People grow taller as they get older, but the second sister just has a face, right? Can you be thicker-skinned? You actually have the nerve to say anything to me intentionally or unintentionally. You can really do that~ Yue'er I hope the second sister will be more careful in the future and don't throw things at my feet 'accidentally' again."
While pressing her daughter, Aunt Meng turned around and said fiercely: "Yes, okay, thank you Third Miss for reminding me!" How dare she curse her daughter like this? Meng Ruxue had already decided in her heart that she would get all of this back. !
"You're welcome~" Wu Sheyue shrugged with a smile. Hey, this guy, how come there are all kinds of people~
Aunt Meng dragged Wu Jinghua out angrily, and Wu Sheyue also got up and prepared to follow. They looked towards the door and found that only Wu Ziyi had not left yet. The child was standing at the corner, watching them quarreling with an expressionless face.
No one could stop Wu Jinghua from getting angry. He pointed at Wu Ziyi and yelled, "What are you looking at! Watch your eyes."
Wu Ziyi took two steps back when she scolded her and quickly got out of the way.
Aunt Meng was very angry, so she didn't stop her daughter from swearing. The two of them pushed Wu Ziyi away and went out.
Wu Sheyue looked at the child and sighed, but she didn't say anything to Wu Ziyi and just walked past him.
This time, the disguised family dinner was held in the flower hall where guests were received. A dazzling array of dishes are placed on the table. Although the dishes are just dishes, they look a bit resplendent.
During the dinner, Wu Sheyue, with the attitude of eating too much, was still prepared to eat to the end without getting involved in other things.
The men at the top were talking all the time, and the women would occasionally say a few words to express themselves, but Wu Sheyue didn't say a word, minimizing her presence.
No, in fact, the lower one should be Wu Ziyi sitting in the corner. The two of them are the only silent people here.
At this time, Wu Ziqi was chatting non-stop with Xin Yu, and he kept showing off his knowledge and insights during the conversation, which made Wu Ziming unable to get in the conversation no matter how anxious he was. Wu Hantian was relatively comfortable giving up the opportunity to his son, and kept whispering to the old lady, Ning Shuang and the others without interrupting Xin Yu.
Later, Wu Ziqi got excited while talking and asked someone to bring a box and respectfully presented it to Xin Yu to see: "Your Highness, this is the golden walnut I saw at Master's place."
When Wu Sheyue, who was eating, heard this, she raised her eyes and glanced, "Wow, this gift isn't too much, isn't it?" She took it as she was told, and said it wasn't prepared for her.
During the banquet, Xin Yu spoke very little. When he saw the box in front of him, he just smiled and took out the golden walnuts inside, weighed it twice in his hands, and said playfully: "This workmanship is quite unique."
"Oh, I was there..." Then Wu Ziqi began to talk endlessly about the legendary story of the golden walnut.
When he was talking, Xin Yu didn't say a word. It wasn't until he finished talking that Xin Yu suddenly said, "Speaking of workmanship, I thought of Miss Third's craftsmanship."
Wu Ziqi had not heard about Wu Sheyue's story. He only knew that the third sister who he often bullied before had recovered from her illness, so for a while he didn't know whose third young lady Xin Yu was talking about.
Although he doesn't know it, others do. So as soon as Xin Yu finished speaking, they all looked at each other strangely. I really didn’t expect that the prince would also be interested in the third girl? Then these three girls are too popular. There was also the young prince and Prince Han before...
The saddest person here was especially Wu Liuyun. She didn't expect that the woman Xin Yu mentioned first was not her, so she held her chopsticks angrily, so hard that they almost broke. It was as if those two thin chopsticks were Wu Sheyue's neck.
While Wu Ziqi looked confused, Xin Yu looked at Wu Sheyue who had been eating and said, "Miss Third, I would like to ask you to see something."
"Yes." Wu Sheyue reluctantly put down her chopsticks and stood up.
Wu Ziqi also looked at Wu Sheyue, and then asked in surprise: "You said it was her?! How is this possible? How can she know how to make things?"
Xin Yu ignored the whirring Wu Ziqi. He just turned his wrist and the golden walnut flew towards Wu Sheyue with a swish.
What surprised Wu Ziqi even more was that Wu Sheyue actually caught it casually! Then under the scorching gazes of everyone, Wu Sheyue asked calmly: "What does His Highness want me to see?"
The corners of Xin Yu's lips raised slightly, "See if you can make an exact one for me to play with."
After hearing this, Wu Ziqi immediately rushed to say: "Your Highness the Crown Prince! You may not know that she was before... that kind of stupid fool who didn't even know a few Chinese characters. How could she have such a skill? If you like Then just take it, why bother making another one."
Jiang Qingxue was a little anxious and wanted to give her son a wink to tell him to stop talking, but her son kept talking to the prince and didn't look at her at all.
Wu Lixiang pulled Wu Ziming and whispered a few words. Wu Ziming's eyes suddenly dilated, as if he had heard something extraordinary.
Wu Hantian was also afraid that his son would make a fool of himself, so he whispered: "Ziqi, shut up first. The prince naturally has ideas."
Wu Ziqi frowned dissatisfied, wondering why his father wouldn't let him speak.
Over there, Wu Sheyue took the walnuts, but without even looking at them, she refused directly and said, "This won't work. I don't know how to forge gold and silverware."
Upon hearing what Wu Sheyue said, Wu Ziqi felt happy, and completely ignored what Wu Hantian had just said, and immediately said to the prince: "You see, she can't do it."
Xin Yu sighed, "This is a pity. What about making it out of wood?"
Wu Sheyue looked at the golden walnut in her hand, "I can make wooden ones, but I'm afraid that no matter how good the wood is, it won't be worthy of His Highness the Crown Prince's status." Wu Sheyue said, and used Xin Yu's method just now. Throw the walnut back.
When Wu Ziqi saw that Wu Sheyue dared to throw it, he was going to scold her, but Xin Yu actually caught it steadily, so he could only swallow his words.
Wu Sheyue looked at Wu Ziqi. She felt that this boy was a bit annoying and talkative. After all, he was also a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the target of her revenge, so she had to teach him a lesson.
So she did not sit down immediately, but continued: "Your Highness, this gold has some impurities, so... you should not show too much to others after you take it back. It is too easy to see."
Wu Ziqi was stunned for a moment, then immediately said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about! This is the property of my master, Taoist Yunshan, how dare you slander me like this!"
Wu Sheyue shrugged, "It's normal for gold to have impurities. This one just has a little more. There's patina on it. I'm just afraid that His Highness will be embarrassed."
The word "shameful" was used very seriously. Wu Ziqi's face turned red. Wu Sheyue's move was undoubtedly a slap in his face. He stood up and defended: "You are not a craftsman! Don't talk nonsense here."
Wu Lixiang and Wu Jinghua couldn't help but sneer in a low voice. If anyone in this room is a skilled craftsman, then there is no one except Wu Sheyue. This is something they cannot deny.
Wu Hantian's face darkened and he scolded him sternly: "Ziqi, sit down!"
"But, dad—"
"Sit down!" Wu Hantian frowned. What happened to his son today? He was so impetuous and disobedient.
"Humph." Wu Ziqi sat back angrily, he just didn't understand! Why did the prince want to talk to such a stinky girl? She framed him so falsely, and none of his parents or grandmother stood up to speak for him!
Jiang Qingxue looked at Wu Sheyue coldly and exhaled angrily. What happened to his son today must be blamed on Wu Sheyue!
Xin Yu gently turned the golden walnut in his hand and continued to smile: "Miss Third, please tell me about the workmanship of this walnut. Do I want to accept such workmanship?"

After hearing Xin Yu talking to Wu Sheyue again, Wu Liuyun finally broke his chopsticks.
"If His Highness the Crown Prince likes it, it has nothing to do with the level of craftsmanship. You can accept anything." Wu Sheyue said smoothly: I won't jump into this trap.
Xin Yu nodded, "Okay~Okay~" As long as I like it, I will accept anything.
He lowered his head and looked at the golden walnut carefully. There was indeed a trace of patina in the gaps. So he handed the walnut back with a smile, "Ziqi, since it belongs to Master, keep it well."
"Yes." Wu Ziqi took it and immediately put it in the box without actually checking whether it had the patina that Wu Sheyue said.
When Wu Ziqi asked someone to take the box away, he took a special look at Wu Sheyue. He looked at the beautiful sister who was drinking water, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
This third sister was annoying before she recovered from the illness, and she will still be annoying after she recovers! How dare you find fault with him like this? Then find an opportunity to deal with her first.
After that, Wu Ziqi still talked eloquently to Xin Yu, but Wu Ziming was finally able to intervene gradually, and then the situation of the talkative man became slightly better.
After eating for a while, Wu Sheyue was so full that she couldn't hold it down anymore. It just so happened that no one was looking for trouble at this time, and there was a burst of singing and dancing ahead as a cover. Wu Sheyue quietly said to Ning'er: "Ning'er, let's go out quickly." After a while, someone thought of her again, and there was probably another bloody storm.
"Yes. Miss, please slow down." Ning'er stretched out her hand to help her stand up. (To be continued)
