Chapter 93

"Miss Xiao, you were trafficked at the age of six, how do you still remember your life experience and hometown clearly?" Cai Jiayu asked with concern.Xiao Wenqing was brought in by her sixth aunt. The two little cousins ​​seem to be very close to Xiao Wenqing, so she should give some face.

As soon as the eldest daughter of the Cai family and the granddaughter of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice opened her mouth, the noble daughter who originally planned to ignore Xiao Wenqing became hesitant again.

"Miss Cai, Wen Qing dare not forget his ancestors." Xiao Wenqing said respectfully.

"Miss Xiao is talented and intelligent. I think she was taught by her parents when she was young; Liu Hanlin's family is worthy of being a scholarly family, and they are very good at teaching students." Cai Jiayu praised, and also praised the sixth uncle's family by the way.

"Yes, yes."

All the ladies nodded.If Xiao Wenqing's talent is mediocre, it is estimated that no matter how much Madam Liu Hanlin trains her, it is impossible to train Xiao Wenqing, who used to be a maid, into a lady in just three months.Liu Hanlin's father was serving as the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine during his lifetime, and many officials in the capital were his students.

Liu Ziyuan raised her head and said triumphantly: "Aunt Xiao has the ability to never forget, and I lose to her every time I recite books; Aunt Xiao learned to play the piano, and she can play a piece of music completely after listening to it two or three times; After only a few days of learning how to play Go, Aunt Xiao was able to review the game by herself." Aunt Liu also taught her how to play the piano, but up to now, her piano playing level is no longer comparable to Aunt Xiao.

Really?

All the rich and noble daughters looked at Xiao Wenqing in shock.Abducted at the age of six, ten years later, it took only three months to catch up with their average academic level?If she hadn't been trafficked, and her family background gave her the opportunity to study, wouldn't she be comparable to the famous talented women in ancient times?

Xiao Wenqing smiled shyly, and said: "Ziyuan, you praise me too much, be careful to blow the cowhide." She was also a little puzzled, she was smart at first, but she didn't have such a good memory, but since she did that In the nightmarish prophetic dream, my memory is much better than before, and it is really close to the legendary photographic memory.

"On the eighth day of December, my wintersweet is in full bloom, and I plan to treat guests. Ms. Xiao, please come too." The eldest lady of the Cui family smiled and said, "Everyone, wait for my post." She and her sisters rested in the garden for a while Just come here, and then I was attracted to the green pine tree.

"There must be plum wine." A rich lady who is very familiar with Miss Cui's family said with a smile.Miss Cai Jia and Miss Cui Jia both expressed their acceptance of Xiao Wenqing, and of course those whose family backgrounds are not as good as hers have to accompany her.

"I hope I don't write poetry." The girl who couldn't write poetry shouted.

"Ziyuan, can Miss Xiao know how to paint?" Cai Jiayu asked Liu Ziyuan with a smile. If you ask Xiao Wenqing herself, Xiao Wenqing will definitely say humbly that she is not good at it.

"My mother said that Aunt Xiao is the best at painting, and her paintings are full of artistic conception and charm." Liu Ziyuan replied that she always thought she was very smart, but since she met Aunt Xiao, she realized that there are really geniuses in the world, and they are still talented. Very hard working genius.

Liu Ziling immediately added embellishments and said, "Aunt Xiao embroidered the picture of the green pine and the crane, so beautiful. My mother said that she is ashamed of herself."

Xiao Wenqing was so praised by the two sisters that she lowered her head slightly, two blushes appeared on her face.She was a little suspicious that Mrs. Liu told Liu Ziyuan and Liu Ziling to speak well of her in front of others, and to see the opportunity to publicize her merits.

"Picture of Red Pine and Crane? Could it be that it was specially embroidered for the [-]th birthday of Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of War?" Miss Cui asked in surprise.When ladies celebrate their birthdays, it seems that half of the ladies send their own embroidery as gifts for their birthdays.

Xiao Wenqing nodded slightly, and said: "Yes, Wenqing temporarily lives in Liu Hanlin's mansion and has no possessions, so he can't let Master Liu and Mrs. Liu spend money on gifts for Wenqing, so Wenqing embroidered an embroidery as a birthday gift. .”

"I really want to appreciate Miss Xiao's embroidery." Fourth Miss Cui immediately walked up to a girl in red and salivated, "Wanxia, ​​go talk to your grandmother and bring Miss Xiao's birthday present for all of us to appreciate." Appreciate." Xiao Wenqing is a newcomer, they are curious about her and want to know more about her.

Mrs. Zhan's granddaughter, Zhan Wanxia, ​​the second lady of the Zhan family, immediately said: "I'll ask grandma to go, you wait for me." After speaking, she smiled and walked briskly to the main hall.

"This..." Xiao Wenqing said eagerly, "Wenqing's female celebrity is clumsy, and she dare not dirty everyone's eyes."

Miss Cui Si smiled and said, "Even Mrs. Liu said that she is ashamed of herself. Your embroidery skills are definitely above the vast majority of us. It is not ashamed to show it to everyone to appreciate."

Cai Jiayu, the eldest lady of the Cai family, smiled and comforted Xiao Wenqing and said, "Actually, our female celebrities are also mediocre, far inferior to the sewing ladies in the mansion."What they are good at is housekeeping and socializing.If you don't know these two things, you can't be a good wife for your husband.

Not long after the second lady of the Zhan family entered, a woman hurried to the front yard, and returned with a square brocade box in a short while.She didn't show it to the ladies directly, but went inside.After a long time, Miss Zhan came over with a smile on her face holding the square brocade box.

"Miss Xiao, the wives in your picture of Qingsong and Crane have all admired it, and they all say it is a rare masterpiece." Second Miss Zhan said.

After hearing this, Xiao Wenqing was a little relieved.

I heard that the well-informed wives said that this is a high-quality embroidery, and the ladies of the family were even more excited.Cai Jiayu opened the square brocade box in the hands of Miss Zhang Er, took out the folded embroidery inside, opened it, and showed it to everyone.

"Yes, it's beautiful."

"The lush green pine symbolizes youth and immortality. Two cranes dance lightly, with one's left wing resting on the other's right wing. Could it be a symbol of Zhan Shangshu and Mrs. Zhan?"

"Miss Wenqing, did you design the embroidery pattern yourself? You are too good."

"Miss Wenqing, I also like embroidery. Come to my house one day and we will study embroidery together."

"Miss Wenqing, you embroider so beautifully, can you teach me?"

Seeing all the rich ladies praising her embroidery, and others warmly inviting her, Xiao Wenqing knew that they accepted her for the time being.
