I fought back after reselling my engagement
Chapter 96 Competition
Princess Changle took the handkerchief, and both sides were the same. She finished a double-sided embroidery in half an hour, adding twelve strands, but this one was completed, while the others had only completed a little or more than half, which was much worse than this one. "You are very smart, Mao Liuniang passed the test!"
When Mao Wuniang heard this, she pricked her finger with a needle and was so angry that she died. Sixth sister once again acted against common sense and snatched the title of embroidery champion that was already secured.
Princess Changle said: "Give me your name!"
"Thank you, Princess!"
Mao Liuniang took the name card under the eyes of the sisters, who were either surprised or indignant. She sat down next to Bai Ruizhu and drafted the name card under Zhou Yiqing's instruction. She did not expect her grandmother and aunt to look at her and control her and her mother. Her mother was alive because of her, and for her mother, she had to swallow her anger.
As long as she didn't marry into the royal family as a concubine, Xu could marry into a good family, which would be better than the one her grandmother found for her.
My father was originally a sickly person, and even famous doctors said he would not live past the age of 18. But my grandmother insisted for more than ten years that she was the one who killed my father, and that marrying my mother would also bring bad luck to my husband. It had nothing to do with my mother and daughter, and the life of the fourth wife was even worse than that of the second and third wives who were born out of wedlock.
Princess Changle said, "You should send the name card to the Governor's Mansion some other day, and ask your father and brother to revise it and copy it when you get home." She stood up and said, "I feel a little sleepy, let's go to Yaxian Manor to take a rest, sister Jiarou, let's go."
Yaxianzhuang is more than a hundred feet away from Yueyang Tower and can be reached in a moment. The courtyard had been booked in advance. There is a large flower hall, and the east and west wing rooms are both rest rooms. The flower hall can be used for chatting, drinking tea and eating snacks, and there is a small couch in the rest room for resting.
When they arrived at the courtyard of Yaxian Manor, there were five banquet tables prepared in the flower hall. The table in the middle was the chairman's table. Mao Yuanniang and Su Qinniang invited several princesses to sit at the table. Zhou Yiqing and Xue Sanniang sat at the same table. The three new members of the Noble Ladies' Society sat at the same table. There were eight people sitting at the main table, and twelve people at the other four tables.
The Mao sisters each have their own concerns.
To Mao Yuanniang, it made no difference whether it was her fifth or sixth sister who entered the Noble Ladies Society. Personally, her sixth sister was the daughter of her fourth uncle, so she was better than her fifth sister. The fifth sister was a concubine's son and a legitimate daughter, so she was a level away from her.
The eldest, second and third wives of the Mao family were all very angry and felt that Mao Liuniang was very embarrassing. After she made such a scene, others thought that the Mao sisters were not getting along and had snatched away Mao Wuniang's chance to join the society.
Mao Si Niang said: "She kept silent, so who would have thought that her embroidery was so good, and even her usually shameful calligraphy was quite good."
"This is just playing dumb. When you heard that you would be arranged a marriage by a noble in the palace if you joined the Noble Ladies' Club, you jumped out."
"Don't be unconvinced. It's because I'm capable. If you have the ability, challenge me again and win the ranking."
"Is it still useful now?"
Now that the business card has been obtained, Princess Changle has to acknowledge it. Princess Changle's visit to Hunan Province must have been prompted by a noble person above her. She brought her business card with her and had prepared it in advance.
The dishes were very exquisitely prepared, mostly local specialties from Yueyang Prefecture, with some Beijing flavors. After the ladies had lunch, the east wing was given to a few princesses, and the west wing was used as a rest room for other ladies. Some people chose to have tea and chat in the flower hall.
Princess Changle and her companions woke up after sleeping for an hour, and walked around Yaxian Manor. They found that the renovated place was quite unique, with different styles. It was really a good place to visit.
Su Qiniang said, "Second Sister Mao, how about we, the officials and noble ladies of Yueyang Prefecture, also set up a poetry club? We can rent a small courtyard here and hold poetry clubs a few times a month?"
Mao Erniang looked at the other noble ladies and asked, "What do you think?"
"I think it's a good idea."
Mao Wu Niang said: "I'm not interested."
"You're really not interested?"
What is the poetry club in Yueyang Prefecture? The Noble Ladies Club in Beijing is the best. Even the empress in the palace knows it. It's a pity that she worked hard, but the quota she got was snatched away by Mao Liuniang, the young man. She now understands that this guy did it on purpose. When he heard that the empress in the palace wanted to arrange a marriage, he jumped out immediately.
If she didn't want to marry a son of the royal family, she would marry a good son as her legitimate wife. Who wouldn't want that? She was originally a concubine's son and a legitimate daughter, and her father was not very capable, so this great opportunity was lost. She had no appetite at noon today.
Mao Erniang said, "If Sister Su Qi can persuade Princess Jiarou to join the club, we can form a poetry club."
Su Qinniang's mind turned again and again, "My sister has so many things to do that she doesn't even have time to join the Capital City Noble Ladies Club."
That was too far away, and Zhen Su had never participated in one before. She had no interest in participating in club activities.
At three quarters past midnight, Princess Changle boarded the carriage and returned to the city. The noble ladies dispersed, some in sedan chairs and some in carriages, and returned to Yueyang City one after another.

The Fifth Prince was quite fond of "Yaxian Manor" and put a lot of effort into its reconstruction and decoration. It can be seen that the owner was a true wise and elegant man, and he was eager to make friends.
"Come here, please come and see the owner of the manor!"
When everyone saw Su Mo coming, they were all stunned with their eyes wide open. Su Mo was indeed too handsome. It was hard to compare with this person among all the beauties in the world. The Fifth Prince compared him with the beauties he knew and found that among the people he knew, only Zhen Su's appearance and demeanor could be comparable to Su Mo.
There is such a strange man in the world, so handsome.
"Su Mo greets the Fifth Prince and all the young masters."
Su Wulang said: "Your Highness, this is the son of the eldest son of the Jiangnan Su family, and also the young master of the Jiangnan Su family."
The fifth prince was slightly surprised. "I heard that among these scholarly families that have been around for two or three hundred years, there is a rule that the clan leader cannot enter the government?"
Su Wulang clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness is well-informed. This is indeed the case with the Su family. Whenever the clan leader has extraordinary insight and knowledge, he can at most pass the examination to become a scholar, and then take care of clan affairs first."
He doesn't enter the officialdom, but only takes care of clan affairs. It's a pity that such a godly figure cannot enter the officialdom.
The Fifth Prince likes beautiful and talented people. He immediately felt that he had met Su Mo too late and was reluctant to leave. He pulled Su Mo to continue talking about the past and the present. Even when he talked about the Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine, Su Mo had unique insights. The same was true when he talked about the Book of Changes. Not only was the Fifth Prince surprised at Su Mo's talent, but Mao Bufan, Wang Heng, and Xu Tao who came with him also admired him. Listening to your talk is worse than reading for ten years. The Fifth Prince sighed that his knowledge was far inferior to Su Mo's.
The fifth prince said, "I have heard that there is a descendant of your Su family named Su Zhen, who has great literary talent. When he visited Yueyang Tower, he wrote a piece of "Yueyang Tower Record" which is really wonderful, 'Worry about the world before you worry about yourself, and be happy after the world is happy', 'Do not be happy with things, and do not be sad with yourself'..."
Su Zhen? According to him, there was no one with this name among his peers. If there was, it was a Su Zhen in the Beijing branch, but this Su Zhen was Zhen Su, and his uncle had the name recorded in the Beijing branch's genealogy as "Su Zhen".
This article might have been written by Zhen Su, but in order to avoid revealing the truth, he said it was written by someone else.
Su Mo said: "The Su family has several branches: Jinling Su family is the main branch, Yangzhou Su family is a branch, there is one in Bashu, one in Fuzhou in the south, and one in the capital. Jinling Su family and Yangzhou Su family belong to the same branch in Jiangnan, and they have many connections. There is no one named Su Zhen in these two branches."
