Chapter 32 (1/2)
”What a pity!” Chu Xi said with a little regret. ”I wanted to talk to my two sisters! In that case, let's go into the long princess's house again!”
Then he nodded slightly to them and went to the carriage behind him.
Chu Qing sighed, ”look, she hasn't done anything yet. She's showing off to you and me.”
Chu Zhi didn't think so: ”if elder sister doesn't like it, it doesn't matter.”
Only Chu QingChu branch and Chu Xi received the invitation in Chu mansion. The old lady took the three together. I don't know why, Chu Xi also took Chu night with them.
The eldest princess's mansion has a great style and is dignified and solemn everywhere. No matter how proud she is, Chu Xi can't help but stop her temper and follow the old lady with low eyebrows and eyes.
The banquet was the same as the process in the palace. The women in the back house sat in one place, and the daughters of each family sat in one place. Next to them were countless young talents.
Although the eldest princess is only the daughter of the Lord of Pearl County, she loves talents very much. Anyone who enters the eyes of the eldest princess can show his face in front of the saint, which is easier than taking part in the imperial examination to obtain fame.
Therefore, many aristocratic families brought their childe and young master to come here in order to be liked by the eldest princess.
The pear blossom banquet was followed by the Begonia spring banquet. Miss Zheng and Princess Pingyang were angry at the Chu family. These days, they often said that the Chu family was not right in front of the daughter of various families. In addition, it was rare for the Chu family to hold the wrong daughter. As soon as the four sisters of Chu Zhi took their seats, they became the focus of the public.
”Lord of Mingzhu County, didn't you say you wanted to see the wrong girl in the Chu family two days ago? Look, people are sitting there!” Princess Pingyang pointed to Chu Zhi and said to the Lord of Mingzhu County, ”the eldest princess likes their sisters very much!”
The Lord of Mingzhu County doesn't like Princess Pingyang, but she has a good relationship with Gu Changyan.
The Lord of Mingzhu County doesn't know whether her mother likes the Chu girl, but the Lord of Mingzhu county knows that her mother gave the Chu girl a maid of honor.
He asked, ”who was rewarded by my mother?”
Chu Xi was so happy that she got up and saluted to the Central Government: ”back to the county Lord, it's the minister's daughter.”
Mingzhu County measured Chu Xi and nodded slightly: ”it looks good.”
Although the Lord of Mingzhu county is weak and ill, she is not ill. On the contrary, she is very dignified and full of style. No one dares to treat her as a 13-year-old girl when she doesn't laugh.
”I hear you are good at playing the piano?” asked the Lord of Mingzhu county.
Chu Xi said modestly, ”I can't talk about a good piano. It's just one or two.”
Chu Zhi heard the speech and slightly hooked her lips. Chu Xi's piano skill is really good. She has a little knowledge and is really modest.
Chu Xi thought that the Lord of Mingzhu county would ask her to play the piano so that she could show her style. Unexpectedly, after the Lord of Mingzhu County nodded, he told her to step down.
Then he called Chu Zhi out.
For Chu Zhi, who has lived for a lifetime, the people in front of her are children's minds and don't care about their dark tide. Therefore, she seems to be keeping a low profile.
Seeing that Chu Zhi is not brilliant, the Lord of Mingzhu county has some doubts.
It is said that Chu Zhi behaves frivolously and domineering. Why doesn't she think?
Maybe it's an error!
Thinking of this, the Lord of Mingzhu County told her to step down.
It happened that the palace man was serving food. Chu Wanyi accidentally bumped into the palace man, and all the dishes in the palace man's hands were sprinkled on Chu Zhi's clothes.
The palace man was slightly stunned and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy: ”please spare your life. It's not good for slaves and maidservants. Please spare your life!”
