Chapter 135
With this wonderful episode, then the next poetry and painting judging appeared to be calm and quiet
-Princess Changping and Su Ying were the judges, picking the three best poems and paintings
Jiang Shu Yue’s poems and paintings were among them, as well as the poems and paintings made by Jiang’s family were also selected
Ling Jingshu took a close look at Jiang’s paintings and praised them with a smile, “Cousin’s wife’s use of color is novel, the composition is exquisite, and the Lotus Chanting painting is unique and eye-catching”
Before Jiang’s departure from the cabinet, she was also a lady of honor known for her talent, and smiled sweetly at her words, “I haven’t used my brush for a long time, so I’m already rusty
Don’t praise me, I should blush if you do”
Ling Jingyan’s poems and paintings were quite good, but unfortunately, there were so many masters here today that it was hard to stand out without something special
Fortunately, Ling Jingshu made a big splash, and Jiang was also quite rewarded, Ling Jingyan’s mood was low for less than half a moment before she was happy again, tugging at Jiang to whisper a few wordsSister-in-law, I’ve got my eye on that vase with the beauty painted on it, will you pick that vase later?”
The vase was slender and graceful, painted with a beauty holding an umbrella
Jiang followed Ling Jingyan’s gaze and nodded in agreement
As a result, Ling Jingyan was in a better mood
As Ling Jingshu watched, she couldn’t help but secretly lose her smile
Ling Jingyan was truly blessed to have such a gentle and generous sister-in-law
Princess Changping’s laughter rang out, ”Today, this Palace has the honor of enjoying the exquisite poems and paintings of all of you, and my heart is truly joyful
-Miss Jiang San and the other three, you can take one piece from here for the prize
As for the others, before leaving this palace also has a small gift to give”
Changping Princess mouth small gift, naturally will not be bad
Out of such a generous and generous, the crowd can not help but to flatter some
Princess Changping was quite enjoying this feeling of the attention of the crowd, and her exquisitely painted and charming face was full of springtime complacency
Ling Jingshu was also among them, pressing the monstrous hatred in her heart bit by bit to the deepest part of her heart, with an appropriate smile on her face
Countess Fu Min was probably the most depressed and chagrined one at today’s Lotus Appreciation Banquet
Having made such a big scandal before, she was no longer arrogant and capricious, but also had no face to make a fuss
After that, the palace maids came one by one to pack up the poems and paintings
These paintings
They could be taken away when the crowd left
Princess Changping suddenly smiled and looked at Ling Jingshu: ”Ninth Miss Ling, the Winged Lotus painting you made today is very much to the liking of this palace
If Miss Ling Jiu is willing to present this to this palace, this palace will definitely present it with a generous gift”
Ling Jingshu busily got up and smiled, “To be favored by Your Highness
It is my honor, how dare I ask for any generous gift”
Princess Changping was quite appreciative of Ling Jingshu’s decent response and smiled, gently asking Ling Jingshu to sit down
Although Princess Changping did not say anything else, however
-It was clear to everyone present that this Ninth Miss Ling, with her high level of poetry and painting and a clever and delicate heart, had already gotten into Princess Changping’s eyes
This noblewoman gathered in the circle, from today onwards, there will be one more person
Before the hour was up, the Lotus Appreciation Banquet was over, and everyone left one by one
Jiang did pick the beauty vase that Ling Jingyan liked, Ling Jingyan got a box of silk flowers from the palace, and Ling Jingshu had the biggest haul
Princess Changping asked for her poems and paintings
Then sent a good set of four treasures
Lake pen and ink ink paper ink stone, especially that side of the ink stone is the most expensive
Busy most of the day, Changping Princess apparently also some tired, did not personally send guests
By the side of the palace maid chamberlain on behalf of the guests
Jiang Shuyue walked together with Jiang, and was closest to Ling Jingshu, and smiled sweetly at Ling Jingshu, “Ninth Miss Ling, in the future, when cousin comes back as a guest, don’t forget to come along”
Other people’s good intentions, Ling Jingshu would not refuse, and answered with a smile
When approaching the door
Su Ying, who was walking in front, intentionally or unintentionally slowed down her pace
When Ling Jingshu and her party approached, Su Ying turned around and called out with a smile, “Miss Ling Jiu, please stay a little”
Ling Jingshu stopped her steps, “I wonder what Second Miss Su has to teach me?”Instruction is not to be taken seriously
I just have a few presumptuous words that I won’t spit out”
Su Ying’s voice was soft and elegant
Her eyes were clear and friendly: “Today, I was fortunate enough to meet Miss Ling Jiu at the Lotus Appreciation Banquet, and in my heart, I only feel that you and I are very compatible, so I hope that I can make a friend with you
I hope to make friends with you, and come and go often in the future”
There was indeed such a thing as eye contact between people
For example, the first time she saw County Head Fu Min, Ling Jingshu felt disgusted from the bottom of her heart
Today, on the other hand, the first impression Su Ying left on her was very goodSecond Miss Su’s words have spoken to my heart”
Ling Jingshu returned a friendly and cordial smile, “I also feel that you and I are extremely fated
Thank you for not abandoning me
If you are willing to fold your arms to me, how could I not be willing to do so”
Su Ying lost her smile, “The more you talk, the more polite you are
It’s fine not to talk about this kind of scene
In a few days, it will be my maturity, I will invite you to the Ling family at that time, I hope you will come as promised”
For a young girl in a boudoir, the day of maturity is very important
It symbolized that the girl had grown up and could talk about marriage
Even commoner families would organize maturity ceremonies for their daughters
For famous noblewomen, the maturity ceremony is even more important and grand
Su Ying took the initiative to open her mouth to invite Ling Jingshu to attend her own maturity ceremony, clearly treating Ling Jingshu as a friend she could make
Ling Jingshu responded without thinking, “Good, I will definitely come when the time comes”
Su Ying pursed her lips and smiled, “Then it’s a deal”
After saying that, she nodded politely at the crowd before turning to leave
The slender and moving figure quickly disappeared before the eyes of the crowd
Ling Jingyan couldn’t help but sigh, “I’ve long heard of Second Miss Su’s reputation as the capital’s number one talented girl, and today, when I see her, it’s better than what I’ve heard”
However, any talented girl will inevitably have a bit of arrogance
This Second Miss Su, however, is modest and courteous, very friendly, like a spring breeze
Even the most critical person would have to admit that Second Miss Su was indeed a famous girl with both virtue and talent
Ling Jingshu also gave a rare heartfelt compliment to another young girl, “Yes, Second Miss Su is indeed very outstanding”
Jiang Shuyue listened to them praising Su Ying, her heart was slightly unhappy
She was also someone who couldn’t hide her heart, and when her mood fluctuated, her face inevitably showed a few points
Out of the corner of her eye, Ling Jingshu noticed the change in Jiang Shu Yue’s expression, and immediately changed her tone of voice: “Today I came to the banquet, and not only did I get to know Second Miss Su, but I also made friends with the straightforward, cute and lively Third Miss Jiang, so it’s really my good fortune”
These words sounded really smooth to the ear
Jiang Shuyue’s eyes curved, smiling playfully and cheerfully, “Actually, I am only two months younger than sister Su
After her maturity ceremony, it will soon be my turn
At that time, don’t forget to come as a guest”
