Chapter 136
Although there were various fruit and snacks on the table and fruit wine suitable for women, Xiao Han had never touched them at all. Xu'er was also staring at it. This was what the Duke's wife told me, because she was afraid that the lady would eat something that could easily induce the disease.
Xiao Han was coming, but the Duke of the Kingdom did not let the two concubines go together. Instead of asking them to take care of Jinsi, it would be better to worry that they would bully her, so he reminded a few more maids who accompanied him, and kept abreast of the lady's body at all times.
In addition, there was Song Chengqi at the table of the noble prince, which made the Duke's wife feel relieved.
Apart from chatting, the gatherings between noble girls were nothing more than fun. However, the self-righteous status was precious and even fun was more elegant. He directly started drinking. Wei Xiu's orchid song made the audience look overshadowed, especially the noble girl who was behind her, bit her lips and even made it impossible to compare with it. Some simply punished themselves with a glass of self-punishment.
When the wine order reached Xiao Han, Wei Xiu took the initiative to speak, "Ms. Song is weak and cannot drink, so let's skip her."
Others were moved by the gentle, considerate and understanding girl Wei Si, and did not mention that Song Jinsi might not be able to make a drink, but instead used the reason for her to be weak, which was considered to be a relief for her.
As for whether Song Jinsi can make a drink order, they have never thought about it. There has never been a similar reputation in the past. How could Song Jinsi be sick all day long?
Xiao Han did not respond to Wei Xiu's kindness and spoke a poem about Qingping. Although it was not as good as Wei Xiu's orchid, his words were clear and graceful, and had a unique elegance, which was also suitable for the situation. Some of the noble ladies looked at the daughter of the British Duke's mansion slightly.
A trace of surprise flashed in Wei Xiu's eyes, and then he smiled, "I don't know that Miss Song has such talent."
Xiao Han said lightly, "I just read some books occasionally at home."
The drink order she made was in line with Song Jinsi's own level. If it were Song Jinsi, she would have accepted the drink order. After all, she didn't want to drink much, and she didn't want to lose face of the Duke of England's mansion.
The pride that could not be hidden in Xu'er's eyes behind her was. How could her lady be unable to understand poetry and books? There was a bookcase in the study room in the yard. Although the Duke's wife was worried about her daughter's fatigue, Song Jinsi sometimes felt sick and could read books. She could calm her mind and nourish her energy after reading too much. Otherwise, she would have such a good temperament after years of illness and suffering.
This is why Xiao Han used the excuse to find the medicinal recipe from ancient books. The maid and Duke's wife around him had no doubts and had never explored so many books. Xiao Han only said that he had recorded them at that time, so they could not read them one by one.
People at that time advocated women's talent and morality, and there was also a female school in the capital. Although those who could enter were not only talent and family background, they were also an indispensable measure. Whether they could be selected for girls' schools and that they also became the reason for comparing with each other among noble girls in girls' schools, the best among them was Wei Xiu, the fourth girl of the Wei family.
Not only did she have outstanding talents, she also had a natural and beautiful appearance like a fairy girl in the world, which made people jealous, as if God had given her the favor.
The girl in the light green robe dressed in two seats and was drinking fruit wine, covering up the sarcasm in her eyes.
In the end, Wei Xiu's orchids made him deserve the title, and Wei Shang was the second place.
"I am worthy of being a girl from the Wei family, and I can easily compare us." The noble girl who was leading the seat whispered.
Wei Shang and Xiao Han fell on the girl in light green silk clothes. After hearing others' comments, he realized that he was the girl from the second wife of the Wei family and Wei Xiu's cousin.
Compared with Wei Xiu, she is more elegant, but when she looks closely, her behavior is elegant, neither humble nor arrogant, and she does not lose the demeanor of the Wei family. She is just beside Wei Xiu, and most of her glory is covered away.
The third place was the daughter of the general who was the Xingguanshan Order. No matter what the words were, no one dared to say that the soldiers of the border were bad, and Wei Xiu laughed with the daughter of the general.
The poems written by the winery on the table were copied by the maids who knew how to write the poems, some kept them for careful consideration, and some took them there. The same was true for the children of noble families, if there were any good poems and paintings.
To put it bluntly, it is to show off your talent.
There is no need to worry that poetry will be spread. Being able to spread talent and fame will add luster to your reputation, and future marriages will also help.
...
"Miss Wei Si's orchid order is really wonderful."
It is precisely because of Wei Xiu's talent and appearance that she became the white moonlight in the hearts of many noble men in the capital. I heard that there were poems from the noble girl, and the first one to read was Wei Xiu.
"This British Duke's Mansion? I don't know who it is." A person with whom he was asked to Song Chengqi.
Song Chengqi explained, "This is my relative's sister. She improved a while ago, so she came out to have some breathing."
My family still knows that Song Jinsi likes reading books, and occasionally talks with him about the present and the past.
As soon as I heard this, I knew who it was, and I dared to have some thoughts. I simply exclaimed, "Ms. Song's talent is not inferior to that of a talent."
“That’s natural.”
After Song Chengqi showed off his hand, he accepted the manuscript of the poem. Although it was not written by himself, he still kept it safe, so as not to attract some crazy bees and waves.
More people's eyes are still about appreciating and appreciating the orchid order of Weixiu.
