Bai Fuling also has to admit that this child Xiaoyou is too talented, at the age of ** he can compose erotic poems as required, and in time he will definitely grow into a cultured playboy!
This kid needs a total re-education!
However, it is very good to take some poems to bluff people, but it is very good as a shield.
The reason why Mu Peilan readily agreed to let Bai Fuling go to the poetry meeting was not because she had confidence in her daughter's literary talent, but because she had great trust in her ability. Bai Fuling has a lot of ideas since she was a child, and she can handle any situation with ease. Most importantly, she has many capable people around her. As long as she has enough helpers, who can make things difficult for her
Bai Fuling is very self-aware. She remembers the poems of many great writers. However, pretending to be a talented woman is often not enough to recite two poems. The ancient literati played a lot of word games. It can immediately make her show her big feet.
Over the years, she has thought that she can only live to be eighteen years old, and she has always been willing to be an ignorant female overlord. She has never read a few serious books, and her handwriting is terrible, and she has a lot of other words. At this level, she pretends to be a talented woman , the risk is too high.
But lazy people have lazy ways... She smugly looked at Yang Mei and Xiao Mi, and she already had some calculations in her heart.
Xia Xinxin's poetry meeting refused to enter without an invitation, so only Bai Fuling brought the maid and mother to go, Xiaoyou was able to get in because of her young age, Huiyun, Huiru and others were not allowed to accompany her.
Bai Fuling happened to go in her own ebony carriage, and Yang Mei and others took another carriage. Xiao Mi slipped into her carriage while everyone was not paying attention and refused to get off. Bai Fuling had no choice but to ride with him.
Along the way, Xiao Ni looked around and looked at all kinds of exquisite designs in the car, her little face was full of curiosity, Bai Fuling was scared by him, so she let him watch, An Xin closed her eyes and rested. It's a pity that Xiao You soon had enough to see and squeezed to Bai Fuling's side and turned her eyes to her face. Bai Fuling couldn't stand the harassment, so she opened her eyes and glared at him, "Go and sit over there. If you don't obey me again, I will I will ignore you, and throw you back to the beggars in Jiyuntang to clean up!"
Xiao You suddenly laughed, holding her arms even tighter, and said in a childlike voice, "Sister likes my uncle, right?"
Bai Fuling snorted, "That's not right! You, a child, know what liking is?"
"Then don't you like my uncle?" Xiao You's eyes showed a hint of evil.
Bai Fuling said unhappily: "You are a big kid, let's play!"
"Tell me!" Xiao You suddenly became less withdrawn and shy, and leaned on Bai Fuling, as if she would never give up until she got an answer.
"Let go, you're wrinkling my clothes." Bai Fuling spent a lot of time getting dressed up like this! Being a beauty is sometimes tiring.
"I'll let you go after you say so." I don't know if it's because there are no other people around, Xiao You's behavior is completely different from usual, and the expression on his face seems to reveal an evil spirit.
Bai Fuling was surprised to find that the physical strength gap between men and women was beyond imagination. Her body was almost fifteen years old, but she couldn't beat a boy who was less than ten years old! "If you don't let go, I'll call someone to deal with you!" Bai Fuling also became ruthless.
Xiao Mi blinked, and suddenly came over and gave her a hard smack on the face, then giggled and shrank back to a corner before Bai Fuling could react.
Bai Fuling pointed at him in disbelief, her face turned blue with anger, she was molested by this stinky boy! She was gnashing her teeth and preparing to attack. At this moment, the carriage stopped suddenly—the Linbo Courtyard, where the poetry meeting was held, had arrived.
The person who picked her up from the car was about to come, and Bai Fuling couldn't beat Xiao You violently, so she could only say viciously: "Stinky child! Just wait and see how I deal with you when I go back!"
Xiao Mi smiled innocently, and the moment the car door opened, she turned back into that shy and innocent little Zhengtai, her face-changing speed was even faster than that of Bai Fuling.
Bai Fuling quickly straightened her clothes and got out of the carriage with the support of Yangmei. The carriage was parked in a wide courtyard, and beside it was a small sedan chair similar to that of the Duke's Mansion. Several servants and nurses of the Xia family were waiting On the side, after getting into the sedan chair and walking for about half a cup of tea, I arrived in front of a waterside pavilion by the lake. A plaque above the waterside pavilion has the word "Chengbi" written on it.
Linbo Bieyuan was also built outside the capital, and it got its name because of the small lake in the Bieyuan. To be honest, in the winter, the lake also froze, and the leaves of the green plants by the lake also fell off. What kind of scenery, I really don't know why those arty ladies and gentlemen would choose this place to hold some poetry meetings.
The waterside pavilion is quite large, and there are already a dozen or so ladies who look like young ladies sitting in it, and behind each of them there are a few maids who serve them, and the wide waterside pavilion seems a bit crowded. Among them, several young ladies are very familiar, and they have all met in recent gatherings.
Today these young ladies don't know what's going on, they are all dressed in plain colors, they probably feel that they are more like talented women.
As we all know, the so-called talented women are often nicknames for women who are not very good-looking and have no other strengths except literacy. Adjectives such as cute, kind, and temperament have a subtext that is not beautiful.
Therefore, when a talented woman appears on the stage, she must win with her temperament - don't put on makeup if you have nothing to do, a plain face is called elegance, don't wear too much jewelry, otherwise it will be vulgar, and don't be too flashy in clothes, otherwise it will be frivolous.
In fact, there are quite a few of these ladies who are good-looking, but after doing this today, they are all bleak. Not everyone has the ability to imitate the fairy Xiaoxiang. Among this group of bleak girls, the well-dressed Bai Fuling is a hundred times more eye-catching than them.
Bai Fuling nodded politely with the ladies she knew, and was about to find a comfortable and warm place to sit down, when a servant girl's announcement came from behind her: "Miss Xia, Miss Qin and the two Miss Deng are here."
Bai Fuling turned her head and saw the sisters of the Deng family who had met in Meiyuan once, and their cousin Miss Qin, the great grandmother of Deng, walked into the water pavilion surrounded by a delicate girl in a white jacket and green skirt.
The ladies in the water pavilion stood up one after another to salute, and that delicate girl was undoubtedly the owner of the poetry club, Xia Xinxin. She is about the same age as Bai Fuling, with an upper-middle posture, deliberately pretending to be a calm expression of "poetry and bookishness in her stomach", Bai Fuling only finds it funny when she looks at her.
Bai Fuling greeted her casually, and wanted to sit aside and wait for the meeting to end, but Miss Deng San suddenly said, "I really didn't expect to see Miss Bai at Sister Xia's poetry meeting. Sister Xia's poem Those who will be invited are all ladies from famous families, Miss Bai must be of extraordinary background. The last time I was in the plum garden for a while, I forgot to ask who is Miss Bai's father and what is the official position in the court?"
She was asking the question knowingly. Last time at the plum appreciating party, they lost face because of Bai Fuling's appearance, and their sharpness was frustrated. He wanted to find an opportunity to ridicule her well.
This time it was the idea given by their grandma's Qin's cousin. They persuaded Xia Xinxin to invite Bai Fuling here. They just wanted to take revenge and make this lowly merchant's daughter no longer have the face to hang out in the capital!
Those who come are not good, and those who are kind do not come! Seeing their virtues, Bai Fuling knew what they wanted to do, so she didn't pay any attention to them, she just asked Xia Xinxin confusedly and innocently: "Miss Xia's poems will only invite the daughters of court officials? Miss Xia, why did you send the invitation specially?" How about coming to the Duke's mansion to invite you?"
The invitation was sent by Xia Xinxin herself to the Duke's mansion. When Bai Fuling asked, she immediately shifted the conflict to her—the master invited me, and I didn't come crying. If you are not convinced, you go. Find the host to reason with!
Xia Xinxin is not familiar with the Deng sisters, she wondered why they kept lobbying her to invite Bai Fuling to participate in the poetry meeting, but now she understands that this lady from the Deng family wants to use her poetry meeting to embarrass Bai Fuling!
She doesn't necessarily like Bai Fuling very much, but she also doesn't want others to use her as a weapon. Hearing the words, she said calmly: "I never said that the poetry festival only invites ladies from officials."
The three daughters of the Deng family were stunned, and they felt that their face was shameless, but Xia Xinxin was not something they could offend, so they could only say embarrassingly: "Our sisters misunderstood..."
Xia Xinxin was also a little curious about Bai Fuling, Miss Sun of the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion, who had become famous in the female family circle in the capital in less than half a month.
She is indeed beautiful, she often went to the palace to accompany the queen's aunt since she was a child, and she was used to seeing beauties in the palace, but there was never anyone who could compare with Bai Fuling. However, Xia Xinxin didn't have much affection for beauties, especially after satisfying her curiosity and knowing the purpose of the Deng sisters' insistence on her inviting her, she felt even more dispirited.
This Bai Fuling's father is just a businessman. Although her mother was the most beautiful and talented woman in Beijing back then, she left Beijing due to illness. A person who loves vanity and doesn't know how to work hard on learning. He probably just returned to Beijing to take advantage of his mother's fame and grandfather's title to marry a shallow girl from a good family.
Xia Xinxin had a prejudice against Bai Fuling, so her attitude became cold, she ignored her, strode to her main seat and sat down, and said: "Today's poetry meeting will also follow the old practice, we are in this clear water pavilion, Talented scholars are in Yanbo Xiaozhu on the opposite bank. They write questions on both sides. Each composes a poem, which is copied by the servant and sent to the opposite bank. The winner of today."
Yangmei is eager to try, and Bai Fuling is so bored that she wants to yawn, she thinks it's better to play drums around the lake and pass flowers. Once the drum stops, whoever owns the flowers will be kicked into the lake to "calm down". Of course, she wants to be the drummer. that one. The brains of these young masters and ladies are all rusty, and they can only come up with such boring things.
Xia Xinxin paused, and added word by word: "Chengbi Water Pavilion is presided over by my younger sister, and Yanbo Xiaozhu is presided over by His Royal Highness the Second Prince."
As soon as she said this, most of the ladies present looked uncomfortable.
