The girls who knew each other looked up and saw Luo Lingyu, so they made way for her to pass. Luo Lingyu saw many flower scrolls on the table, and they wrote many names and copied them one by one on rice paper... A soft and delicate voice explained: "These are the names of the girls who will participate in the 'Flower God' selection. Everyone sign up here."
The person who spoke was Princess Pingning Liu Tang, who smiled at Luo Lingyu with affection.
The girls asked with a smile, "Ms. Luo, do you want to participate in the 'Flower God' election? If you do, write your name down."
Luo Lingyu acted very interested: "It's quite interesting, I'll try it too."
She scanned the names of people she didn't recognize, and when she saw "Chen Xiu", she raised her lips knowingly. Then she looked at Princess Pingning who was still hesitating, and encouraged her with a smile: "Princess, why don't you join? It's so fun. Maybe you can win the 'Goddess of Flowers'? Maybe you will be the first princess to be painted in the 'Portraits of Ladies' by celebrities?"
Being included in the "Portraits of Ladies" by celebrities would be a reputation that would be praised by the world and even passed down through the ages. The influence of celebrities today is extremely great. Princess Pingning was shaken in her heart: "I can't do it..."
Luo Lingyu was waiting for her to use the title of princess to compete with Chen Xiu, so that she could benefit. Princess Pingning would not suffer any loss... Luo Lingyu said: "Everyone should play together with their own abilities. Whoever gets the title of 'Flower Goddess' gets it, so why hesitate?"
All the girls were also smiling. Wang's daughter even turned around and said, "Then Princess, I'll add your name. What do you want to choose? Poetry, painting or dance music?"
Some of the contestants competed in poetry and painting, and some in dance music. This was the most common choice. However, when Lady Wang asked this question, Princess Pingning said, "We'll compete in horse riding."
The hand of the Wang family girl trembled as she wrote on the rice paper, and she only wrote a few words. Luo Lingyu looked back at Liu Tang's thin and weak appearance. She really couldn't believe that this girl would choose an unpopular horse... Seeing the name "Liu Tang" on the paper, Luo Lingyu's lips curled up, and she could imagine the spectacular scene of Liu Tang and Chen Xiu competing for fame. A princess who was the only one to appear in the royal family, and a lady from a famous family who was favored by celebrities... It would be easy for her to stand out if these two people were competing fiercely.
When interests conflict, the bystanders win. As long as she can suppress these two people, the most people will turn to her.
Luo Lingyu took the opportunity to ask them detailed questions about the Flower Goddess Festival. The girls were talking and laughing when Han's daughter came over angrily. Han's daughter clapped her hands and looked down to see the name Luo Lingyu had added on the rice paper. She grabbed Luo Lingyu's hand and said, "Sister Luo, you are also going to run for the 'Flower Goddess', right? I won't run, I'll give you the spot! You will definitely be the 'Flower Goddess' and teach Chen Xiu a lesson!"
The girls hurriedly asked what was going on: "I told you not to mess with Madam Chen... She is a talented woman, how can you win over her?"
The Han family daughter slammed the table and said, "I don't need to say anything about her! She said Sister Luo is beautiful but not talented. It's not the first day I've known Sister Luo..." She looked down and saw that the word "Wu" was written after Luo Lingyu's name. After a moment's surprise, she immediately took a pen to change it: "Sister Luo, compete with her in poetry and painting! I don't believe you are not as good as her!"
The Han girl had gone mad, her eyes were red, and she was only thinking about defeating Chen Xiu.
Luo Lingyu hurried over to stop him: "No, no..."
What she wants is to astound the world; just winning over Chen Xiu is not her goal at all!
The ladies of noble families learn a lot, but their personal talents are limited. Most of the ladies are suppressed by the famous talents like Chen Xiu. Moreover, Chen Xiu looks down on those who play all day long, and she claims to be noble, which makes people dislike her. Many people dislike Luo Lingyu... But this dislike contains more complicated feelings. They have no doubts about Luo Lingyu's character. Therefore, after hearing Han's daughter's imitation, the cousins pondered for a while and made a decision quietly: "Then I won't participate either. It's better for Madam Luo to win."
Luo Lingyu said modestly: "Don't be like this..."
My heart was filled with joy.
Smiling and full of true feelings, she said to Madam Chen, who did not sit and play with vulgar people like them: This lady is really a good person. The hatred was so stable that she actually got an advantage.
Chen Xiu saw Luo Lingyu's gaze: "..."
She turned to the girl beside her and said, "What does Miss Luo mean by that? Is she provoking me?"
A poor girl from a noble family actually provoked her? !
Seeing the gentlemen stealing glances at Luo Lingyu, Chen Xiu despised her in her heart: she is a mediocre woman, this is how men see her.
Not wanting to go along with those girls, Chen Xiu stood up and went to a painting screen alone. After thinking for a while, she picked up her brush and started painting. After a while, the girls seemed to have lost their pens and papers over there. Luo Lingyu looked around and saw many wolf-hair and rabbit-hair brushes in the pen pool on Chen Xiu's side, so she took the initiative to take the brush and grind it. When Luo Lingyu lowered her head to pick up the brush, she heard Chen Xiu's cold voice: "Ms. Luo, I am a few years older than you and have lived in Jianye longer than you. I deserve to be called 'sister' by you. There are a few things I want to tell you as a sister - you are a small family in Nanyang, how can you be a big family. If you have a narrow vision and knowledge, your behavior will be petty and not presentable."
"For example, relying on your beauty to talk to a man is so ungentlemanly."
"For women like me, virtue and chastity are the top priorities. You are younger, so don't take the wrong path or people will say you are frivolous."
"Don't bring your bad habits from Nanyang to Jianye."
Luo Lingyu raised her sleeve to take the pen and paused: "..."
She stood up and saw Chen Xiu painting on the screen while teaching her indifferently. Acting like a sister, she taught her to be dignified... Luo Lingyu raised her eyes. Metaphysics is popular now, not the time when Confucianism is in power. The girls in Jianye are all tough. Even Chen Xiu, who comes from a Confucian family, still keeps staring at Lu Sanlang... There are many girls in Jianye who are different from Chen Xiu. Why does Chen Xiu not say it to others but to her?
Do you think that she is a poor girl from a noble family, with no power to rely on, and can be bullied at will?
