I traveled all over the three thousand worlds just to meet you

Chapter 60 The Mutant Old Lady (10)

Just as she was thinking about it, the servant girl over there suddenly froze when she saw the gorgeously dressed Shen Liuyue.

"She, she's always busy. She stopped several times along the way. How much is it wasting everyone's time?"

Shen Liuyue twitched the corners of her mouth, helped the girl to the side and sat down, and turned her head to look at the maid:

"She is one of the top five selected by the state capital, and she wants to win glory for Yanzhou. Even if she delays some time, you can't just blame her."

"me……"

"Tweety, apologize to Miss Gu!"

In the first one, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a hibiscus face, it was the cousin of the magistrate's family in Yanzhou.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Tweety blushed angrily, and apologized bluntly.

Miss Gu obviously didn't expect that she would get an apology from this little maid, and she took a second before replying softly.

"It's ok."

Tweety cast her a hard look, and then galloped towards her carriage.

"Miss Gu, if you don't mind, you can come and sit in my carriage."

Shen Liuli extended an invitation.

Ms. Gu saluted timidly: "Thank you, Ms. Shen, just call me Gu Qing."

"You can also call me Liuyue, come on, my carriage has soft cushions, it will be more comfortable for you to sit on."

"Thank you." Gu Qing didn't refuse either. After all, although the carriage was arranged uniformly, but because of the poor condition of the family, he didn't make extra purchases. Even the dry food he ate was the lowest cheap food.

Therefore, although the main reason was her motion sickness along the way, it was also because of the simple and shabby food that her body was weak, so she couldn't bear the bumps.

"Let's go." Seeing that the ladies got into the carriage, the person in charge of the escort let the carriage move on.

Shen Liuli soon heard the voice of a woman chatting from the carriage behind her, and it was not hard to hear that her second sister was in a good mood, presumably she had made another friend.

Thinking of the past few years, he gradually became unwilling to interact with the children in the village. He felt that playing with the children in the village would make his rules and etiquette deteriorate.

So even if I saw my sister having fun with other children several times, I was extremely envious, and I would not go there together.

"Grandma, am I being too rigid?"

Shen Liuli was silent for a while before asking Jiang Hua.

The book in Jiang Hua's hand paused slightly: "Grandma told you a long time ago that etiquette is just to make people look more decent, not to distinguish you from other people who don't understand etiquette.

Think about it carefully, how long has it been since you played with your friends in the village?
Not long ago, Erya got married, and you didn't even go to see her off in person. At that time, my grandma asked you, and you said it was to practice drawing.

But I also know in my heart that you are afraid that if you meet a foreigner, others will criticize you for being unruly. "

"Grandma..." Shen Liuli's eyes turned red for a moment.

Wang Erya was her playmate since she was a child, and she was the only girl who was willing to think of herself even if she sometimes disliked her because she didn't understand the rules.

"Am I wrong?" She raised her blank face, her eyes were full of confusion, but that's what Mammy taught.

"You value your reputation too much, but you forget that we are just ordinary merchants, and even if your elder brother becomes an official in the future, we will not be as rich as a famous family.

Madam Xu is from a family background, and there is nothing wrong with her etiquette and rules, but a variety of rice supports a variety of people, you have to have your own character and your own ideas. "

Shen Liuli was silent, and it took a long time before she opened her mouth slowly, with a hint of firmness and sudden enlightenment.

"Grandma, I want to visit the market with Erya when I go back this time."

Jiang Hua nodded: "There is no need to report this kind of trivial matter to anyone."

There was a bit of satisfaction in her eyes, a child can be taught, this girl still has hope to become a lively person instead of a rigid and polite woman.

The carriage was walking all the way, ever since Shen Liuli wanted to drive, she was no longer so cautious along the way, sometimes she would run to Shen Liuyue's carriage, and sometimes she would call Gu Qing and the three of them to play together.

Lu Qing drank tea and ate snacks on the Shen family's carriage. It seemed that his body, which would collapse in the wind, finally regained some strength, and nothing happened along the way.

The carriage soon arrived in the capital, and the girls from all over the place were placed in a royal courtyard, three people in one courtyard, Shen Liuli, Shen Liuyue and Gu Qing, it was just right.

After setting up the house, the three of them sat in the yard and chatted. When Jiang Hua came out after a nap, she saw three little girls whispering.

She raised her eyebrows: "What are you talking about?"

Shen Liuli stood up and bowed to him: "Liuyue told Qing'er that you can do calligraphy, and Qing'er wants to see it."

Seeing the other two little girls looking at her with hopeful eyes, Jiang Hua didn't grind anymore. Seeing that they had finished grinding the ink, she didn't pretend to be pretentious, and wrote four big characters with a pen.

"Blossoms are like brocades." Lu Qing's eyes lit up when he saw the beautiful hairpin flower in lower script.

"Madam has such good handwriting, my daughter has never seen it before, compared with you, my daughter is ashamed.

It's just that the little girl doesn't understand, such a skill.Why didn't my wife participate in the selection of No.1 yuan back then. "

"I didn't write so well in the past few years, it's just that as I grow older, I have some artistic conception of my own.

I also read your handwriting just now, and it is very good. Don't underestimate yourself. You will definitely have a place in this competition. "

Gu Qing was overjoyed with a small face after being praised by the senior he admired.Seeing them discussing with each other, they practiced in full swing.

Jiang Hua also went for a stroll by herself, leaving space for the little sisters.

After three days, all the top five from all over the country had arrived. A total of 88 girls from sixteen states had come. Excluding a few who were sick and repatriated on the way, a total of [-] girls had come.

After two days of rest, on the first day of June, the game kicked off and was divided into six match points.

Piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, female red, riding and shooting.

Each chooses the project to register, and after the registration is completed, they will be selected one by one.

"This year's No. 1 yuan selection contest has been registered. 88 noble ladies participated, 28 applicants for piano skills, eight applicants for chess skills, 20 applicants for calligraphy skills, 15 applicants for painting skills, and female red applicants. 13 people, four applicants for riding and archery.”

Women generally learn piano skills, because this one looks elegant and has connotations, but when it comes to the competition venue, the competition is more intense.

"Sure enough, the choice made in the early years has become an obstacle now." Jiang Hua sighed.

"No way, who made ancient women feel that playing the piano is elegant?"

"Yes, this is what most people think."

"The competition starts now!" As the sound of the start of the competition in the arena sounded, the girls who signed up were taken to their respective venues.

Because calligraphy, painting, and female celebrities are all quiet events and will not disturb the other party's mentality, the competitions are arranged in three adjacent yards.

Jiang Hua waited on the seats outside the courtyard. Not far in front were three rows of more luxurious seats on the left and right, not far from the courtyard entrance.

There are several older women sitting in each row, with solemn expressions and dignified temperament.

When the works come out, they will be judged by several of them.They are regarded as the masters of these three sects. If they are interested, they may be selected as disciples for training.
