Chapter 70 070 I really have to accept it. …
After admiring the flowers, Xiao Xianyu and Xiao Daiyu were about to go back when they unexpectedly met Wang Yao. Although both of them felt a little surprised, they followed their instinct and etiquette to greet him.
This was the first time Wang Yao met little Daiyu.
He was supposed to be at the banquet outside entertaining male guests and should not be here.
Today's banquet was originally held to celebrate his success in passing the imperial examination, but it just so happened that Lin Ruhai and his family came to Beijing to report on their work, and because his family has been in the spotlight recently, they deliberately wanted to keep a low profile, so they did a two-in-one operation.
Oh, if we count the banquet to thank Lin Ruhai for his guidance in the imperial examination, it is actually a three-in-one banquet.
Well, from this perspective, in terms of the degree of careful budgeting, the Wang family is actually a little better than the Xue family, the royal merchant family. After all, who would have thought that a meal could solve so many problems?
Their Wang family can do it!
It's really great that no one can say anything.
But no matter how you look at it, Wang Yao is definitely the absolute protagonist of this banquet today - he is the one who passed the imperial examination, he is the one who needs to represent the Wang family to welcome the relatives and friends who have come from afar, and he is also the one who came forward to thank Lin Ruhai, the "teacher for a day"...
It’s him! It’s him! Or it’s him… I have to say, Xianyu’s cheap elder brother has been on the screen quite frequently recently.
Maybe it's due to some kind of magical energy and aura, he seems to have had great luck recently, and since returning to the capital, he has been on a roll. First he met Master Kang and won his favor, and then he passed the imperial examination. When his luck comes, it's simply unstoppable.
So, why does he appear here as the absolute protagonist of today?
Shouldn't he be outside at the men's section, dealing with guests and welcoming them?
What are you doing in the back garden?
Are you really here to enjoy the flowers?
Little Daiyu was still young, so there was no need to worry about the differences between men and women. After the usual greetings, she just looked curiously at the big brother in front of her who was more than ten years older than her, wondering what his purpose was.
It was also the first time that Wang Yao saw little Daiyu. Although he was much older than little Daiyu, he was still somewhat surprised that she was so beautiful and intelligent at such a young age. It was really beyond his imagination.
He had heard that the daughter of his uncle Lin was an extremely intelligent girl, but the age difference between the two was too great. If he had not happened to meet her in his own back garden today, he would have had no chance to meet little Daiyu.
As for why he appeared in the back garden at this time, it was simply because he lost the game and was forced to run to the back garden to pick a flower to take back as a prize...
Yes, the men are not as quiet as the women. They don't just chat about gossip and small talk to kill time and keep in touch. They want to play some literary games.
Although these literary games are nothing more than pleasure-seeking, wanton laughter, and even debauchery in the guise of literature and art, they are still covered with a layer of literature and art after all.
Things like Fen Cao She Fu and Qu Shui Liu Shang are still too literary, and are not friendly enough to many ordinary young men who are uneducated and even have little knowledge.
But pitching pots and throwing dice are too vulgar, and are not as elegant and interesting as passing the flower. Whoever gets the flower in his turn has to perform a show. It doesn't matter whether it's eating, painting, playing the piano or singing, or even performing a kung fu show. Anyway, you have to perform something, just to make it lively and happy. Therefore, it is very popular among young people attending the banquet.
However, although the flower is just a prop in the ordinary drum-beating and flower-passing segment, and there is no regulation on what kind of flower to use, if the flower is made of silk or paper, it would not be elegant enough, and it must be a fresh flower to have charm.
Since there were many young gentlemen among the male guests attending the Wang family's banquet, including Feng Ziying, who also brought Liu Xianglian, as well as a few dandies who had previously played in the capital, everyone started to make a fuss and play tricks, and asked Wang Yao to personally go to the back garden of his house to pick the most elegant and beautiful flower before they could continue playing.
Feng Ziying was considered to be a relatively active young man among the aristocratic families of his generation in the capital. He was not bound by any religion or belief, had many friends, and was also good at having fun. Therefore, whenever there was a banquet in an ordinary family where the main characters were young people, he would definitely be invited.
When Wang Yao was a playboy in the capital, he had a very good relationship with Feng Ziying. After he followed Wang Ziteng and others back to Jinling City to mourn for the old man of the Wang family, although the two had not been in contact for two or three years, their old feelings were still there and they did not seem to be estranged.
As soon as Wang Yao returned to the capital, Feng Ziying sent a special invitation to visit him, but at that time Wang Yao was busy preparing for the provincial examination and had no time at all - what? How did he have time to accompany Xianyu out for a stroll and a meal, so that he met Master Kang and the fourth master in the restaurant?
How can they be the same?
This is my own precious sister, completely different from those bad friends outside.
Although Feng Ziying is a good person, he is also an outsider. With a younger sister, who cares about the life and death of his brothers?
What's more, his sister is different from other people's sisters - she is the best sister in the world, and as her brother, he should give her the best in the world. What's the big deal about accompanying her shopping and eating?
Even if his beloved sister said one day that she wanted to chop off his head to use as a stool to sit on or kick a football, he would not say a word but would immediately chop it off for her - and he would not forget to ask, "Does it hurt?"...
Yes, as a veteran sister-con, Wang Yao's attitude towards Xianyu is so sincere and unreserved. To be honest, Xianyu is quite moved.
This is also the reason why he can often hear Xianyu's voice recently.
It's a pleasant surprise that my favorability rating has increased significantly due to my excessive sister complex.
At the same time, because he heard more of Xianyu's thoughts, Wang Yao loved and liked her more - look, his sister is a "little fairy".
My sister actually knows so many things, and she can express her thoughts directly without even opening her mouth... It's really amazing.
The most amazing thing is that those inner voices not only contain a lot of interesting gossip, but also a lot of useful information. Many of them are even like "oracles" that "predict" what will happen in the future.
After experiencing several successful predictions, Wang Yao was completely convinced.
The most recent one is this year’s provincial examination.
Before entering the examination room, Wang Yao wanted to find out about Jia Zhu's exam results because he heard that Jia Zhu was also taking the exam.
However, since Jia Zhu's condition did not look good, he did not move forward.
Firstly, the examination room of the provincial examination had strict discipline, which was not suitable for small talk. Secondly, Wang Yao knew that Jia Zhu, the cousin born by his second aunt, had always disliked his cousin from his second uncle's family - probably because he disliked his past youth and his time as a playboy in the capital. After all, he was a genius who entered school at the age of fourteen.
The top students always look down upon the poor students.
What's more, Wang Yao is far superior to Jia Zhu in all other aspects except academic performance, whether it is intelligence, conversation, character, popularity, even figure and appearance. This makes Jia Zhu very unhappy. This is probably the envy and jealousy between peers.
When Wang Yao passed the imperial examination and Jia Zhu failed, the legendary Mr. Zhu became even more upset - not to mention his illness, Jia Zhu also claimed to be sick and did not attend the small family dinner held by the Wang family.
Maybe he was really sick, but even if he was not sick, he must have been angry when he came to Wang's house and saw Wang Yao's high-spirited look - Jia Zhu has always been a mean person, otherwise he would not have made himself so sick at such a young age.
It's not like the Lin family, who were influenced by external factors. Chunchun brought his own death upon himself. This is really incomprehensible.
Wang Yao always ignored people with "different beliefs", so he did not greet Jia Zhu on purpose. It was not until the last day of the exam when this cheap cousin suddenly fainted in the examination room that he spoke to Jia Zhu and personally sent Jia Zhu back to Rongguo Mansion.
This is the extent of the interaction between the two people.
However, Wang Yao happened to hear Xianyu's thoughts at that time.
It's still about Jia Zhu's future.
It turns out that this unlucky cousin will not only fail the imperial examination this time, but will also soon be bedridden and die?
no?
Isn't he only seventeen?
You said you will die at the age of nineteen?
Isn’t this too unlucky?
Wang Yao sighed quietly in his heart, but he didn't pay much attention to it. It was not until Jia Zhu really failed the exam and really fell ill that he remembered this matter. He couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine, and sighed again that this "oracle" of his beloved sister was so accurate.
You have to accept it.
But, there is a small question. Why does my sister only talk about Jia Zhu and not him?
He also wants to know his own destiny?
I don’t know if I can pass the imperial examination, and if I can pass the imperial examination, and if I can become an official in the imperial court, I don’t know if I can reach the highest position…
There are so many things he wants to know about the future, but it's a pity that his sister can't hear his thoughts, otherwise he could talk to her about it.
Wang Yao was so anxious that he scratched his head, but there was nothing he could do.
But every time he saw Xianyu, he would look at her with expectation, hoping that she could give him some information about herself today.
Even though there was a banquet outside today, he still took the opportunity to sneak into the back garden, hoping to run into his sister by chance - he knew that his sister liked the flowers in the garden and would come here to stroll around from time to time. Although the banquet started today, he also knew that his sister was most annoyed by the small talk and social interactions before the banquet, so she might take the opportunity to come out for some fresh air.
As it turned out, Wang Yao had a pretty thorough understanding of Xianyu's temperament.
As expected, Xianyu felt bored with the routine greetings and small talk before the meal, and Fengjie kindly helped her find an excuse to take little Daiyu out for a stroll.
And here I happened to meet her.
The only problem was that she was not alone, but brought little Daiyu with her.
Although Xiao Daiyu is not an outsider, it is not as good as having her sister alone.
Wang Yao looked at Xianyu with some regret. He planned to chat for a while, pick a flower in the garden, and then go back to continue drinking with Feng Ziying and the others.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, he suddenly heard Xianyu's voice.
[Emma, my cheap brother is really happy today. I wonder how he will respond if Master Kang really wants to use him in the future, or use him to death.]
