However, she was not confident in competing in calligraphy. After all, her calligraphy was only limited to her hobby with Wu Shuangshuang back then! Wu Shuangshuang loved calligraphy, so she had been learning it for a few years. She didn't know if she could use it!
"Just let Yu Caiyue compete with Su Yufei! Then, Miss Yu would compete with the winner. Wouldn't that be good? One was the number one talented woman, and the other was the number one beauty. Wouldn't it be the most interesting to see who won?”Gu Qingqing, who had been silent all this while, stood up and suggested.
" I..." Yu Caiyue had indeed been trying her luck. It didn't feel good to be ignored.
From the beginning, Yu Caiyue had been staring at Yu Yin 'er. She had noticed that Yu Yin' er's expression had turned difficult when she heard about the calligraphy competition. She didn't believe that she couldn't win against a fool!
"Why doesn't Younger Sister Gu personally compete with Younger Sister Cai Yue?”Su Yufei, who had been watching everything silently, stood up and said with a faint smile.
"That's right! Why not Big Sister Gu compete with Big Sister Cai Yue?”A little girl sitting next to Su Yufei also echoed. Yu Yin 'er couldn't help but take a few more glances at this little girl.
She sat next to Su Yufei and did not attract much attention. However, when one looked carefully, one could see that her young face had already revealed some unconcealable beauty.
"Zhu Huan, whose daughter is that?”Yu Yin 'er tilted her head and asked. Zhu Huan, who was beside her, followed Yu Yin' er's gaze and took a closer look.
"She's the daughter of Liu Qingsong, the third-grade assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue! Liu Ruxi!" Zhu Huan replied in a low voice. The little girl had always been on good terms with Su Yufei and had attended all kinds of banquets at a young age.
"Liu Ruxi? What a good name!" It was just that there was some scheming in his eyes at such a young age. He did not know if he was worthy of this good name! Yu Yin 'er lowered her eyes and walked to the side leisurely, watching this unknown show.
"I…I'll compete!" Gu Qingqing really hated Su Yufei, a woman who only had beauty! Just like Yu Yin 'er, she was a pretty woman! She hated herself to the core. If it weren't for her cheap mouth, how could she let that bitch Su Yufei take advantage of her!
"Sister Gu, please!" Yu Caiyue gently bowed to Gu Qingqing. To outsiders, Yu Caiyue's actions were extremely delicate. Needless to say, how many young masters would be deceived by her!
However, Yu Yin 'er had seen Yu Caiyue's true colors, so she was not surprised!
"Humph!" Seeing Yu Caiyue's weak appearance, Gu Qingqing's heart was filled with anger. She walked up to the stage first, picked up the brush and began to write on the paper without using the ruler.
As soon as she started writing, the ink on the brush fell onto the rice paper and stained the paper. The young ladies sitting nearby saw Gu Qingqing's actions and could not help but laugh.
Gu Qingqing's face instantly turned red from this smile. She then looked at Yu Caiyue and gently picked up the writing brush of Xiao Zhuan. She dipped the ink on the inkstone and then started writing on the Xuan paper. Her writing posture was very beautiful.
Immediately, Gu Qingqing felt like she was asking for humiliation. She threw the brush aside and ran off in embarrassment, leaving Yu Caiyue alone.
"Looks like Miss Gu has forfeited! Who would go up and compete with Second Young Miss Yu?”Wei Yunye stood up and said after cursing Gu Qingqing in his heart.
Yu Yin 'er swept her gaze around the place and found that these young ladies were somewhat restless, but no one dared to move. Su Yufei, on the other hand, had a calm expression, as if she was a fairy who did not eat the mortal world.
Yu Yin 'er lowered her eyebrows and recalled the night of the festival. At that time, she was so envious of Su Yufei's appearance. But now? Hehe, did Su Yufei recognize him?
"I've long heard that little sister Cai Yue's literary talent is outstanding, big sister should come and give it a try, I hope little sister will show mercy!”A gentle voice rang out, making one's heart feel warm. This voice was quite pleasant to hear.
Yu Yin 'er couldn't help but take a look and saw an eyebrow walk out of the crowd. The woman with faint eyes and a dignified and generous face walked like a weak willow supporting the wind, making people feel pity for her.
Yu Yin 'er couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Indeed, men could not compare to the beauty of a peerless beauty, but men could not compare to a gentle woman!”
Without a doubt, the woman in front of him was a gentle woman!
"Sister Qin?" Yu Caiyue didn't expect that the person who came up was her good friend. She couldn't believe it.
"Sister Cai Yue, show me your ability! I won't harm you. Let's begin!”The woman picked up the brush and began to write. She only glanced at Yu Caiyue indifferently and said in an almost inaudible voice.
Yu Caiyue finally understood, and she couldn't help but nod her head. She also picked up her brush and began to write.
"Who is this?" A woman who was willing to pave the way for Yu Caiyue was truly extraordinary! Yu Yin 'er only saw the woman move her lips. Although she couldn't hear what she said, she could guess from Yu Caiyue's expression that she was paving the way for Yu Caiyue.
"It's the Second Rank Minister of Works Qin Ziyao's daughter, Qin Kehan. She's always been on good terms with the Second Miss and is said to be the Third Miss's external family!”Zhu Huan replied in a low voice. She had confirmed the identities of these people in advance. She was afraid that Miss did not know these people, and she did not know either.
"Yes! You're a person who values relationships!" Yu Yin 'er praised lightly, but she didn't think much of it. The Third Miss Yu Cailing's physical family was on good terms with the Second Miss, this was really a big joke!
"Yes, Miss Qin has always had a reputation as a friendly sister in the socialite circle in Beijing!”Zhu Huan thought that Yu Yin 'er was talking to him, so he replied.
Yu Yin 'er didn't expect that there would be such a sentence at the end. She couldn't help but smile and said indifferently,""Humans should never believe what they see!”
After a while, the two of them finished writing. Yu Wanwan, Wei Yunye, the Li family, the Zhu family, and the three princes commented on it.
The few of them evaluated the two's words and finally came to the conclusion that Yu Caiyue was the winner.
"Sister, thank you for letting me win!" Yu Caiyue said to Qin Kehan, her eyes filled with gratitude.
"It's because Younger Sister is better!" Qin Kehan said calmly.
"Is there anyone else who wants to challenge Second Young Lady Yu?”Wei Yunye stood on the stage and swept his cold gaze across the crowd. Finally, his gaze fell on Yu Yin 'er.
Yu Yin 'er noticed his gaze, but she lowered her eyebrows and pretended not to see his provocative gaze.
"Looks like this king didn't give enough!”Wei Yunye's lips curled into a faint smile, but his eyes revealed a dangerous aura.
"Wangye, this official's daughter wants to give it a try!”Su Yufei saw that she was almost done with her preparations, so she answered. Everyone looked at her in surprise. Didn't she say that she wouldn't compete? Why now?
Yu Yin 'er narrowed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up."I underestimated you!"
Everyone knew that Zhang Xiuzhi had been practicing her zither skills for ten years, but now she had lost to a fool. It could be seen that this fool's zither skills were not bad, so no one responded.
"Since no one is challenging us, then this round will be considered the victory of the eldest daughter of the Yu Family. Let's proceed with the calligraphy! After all, it was getting late. They could just pick two items and compete!”Wei Yunye didn't care about what the others said and directly announced the contents of the competition.
Yu Yin 'er frowned. When she was still in the modern world, her mother had asked her to learn the zither. At first, she had refused. However, after her mother passed away, she had practiced the zither hard. In the end, she even won the first place in the city's zither competition. At that time, she was so excited that she had burned the certificate to her mother.
However, she was not confident in competing in calligraphy. After all, her calligraphy was only limited to her hobby with Wu Shuangshuang back then! Wu Shuangshuang loved calligraphy, so she had been learning it for a few years. She didn't know if she could use it!
"Just let Yu Caiyue compete with Su Yufei! Then, Miss Yu would compete with the winner. Wouldn't that be good? One was the number one talented woman, and the other was the number one beauty. Wouldn't it be the most interesting to see who won?”Gu Qingqing, who had been silent all this while, stood up and suggested.
" I..." Yu Caiyue had indeed been trying her luck. It didn't feel good to be ignored.
After Yu Wanwan's announcement, someone volunteered to stand up and challenge Yu Yin 'er.
Yu Yin 'er was originally standing below and did not intend to participate in the battle now. After all, she was the one who went in the beginning, and it would really consume a lot of energy.
However, when Zhang Xiuzhi looked at Yu Yin 'er with disdain, Yu Yin' er slowly walked up to the stage.
Everyone thought that Yu Yin 'er would refuse, but they didn't expect her to walk up so leisurely and calmly.
"I know that my zither skills are not good, so I hope that Sister Xiuzhi will show mercy!”Yu Yin 'er walked forward and bowed slightly. She had always been polite before resorting to force, and her face still carried a trace of indifference.
Zhang Xiuzhi heard her words and snorted."Elder Sister will only treat it as showing mercy to Younger Sister. I hope Younger Sister will show your true abilities!”
As everyone knew, this silly girl of the Yu Family was not good at anything. How could she possibly know how to play the zither, go, and calligraphy? This was also the reason why Zhang Xiuzhi dared to challenge Yu Yin 'er. She just wanted to make her presence known among the male guests below. However, the male guests below did not see it that way. The beautiful Yu Yin' er being challenged by Zhang Xiuzhi only made them look down on Zhang Xiuzhi even more.
Even Yu Wanwan looked down on Zhang Xiuzhi, who had challenged her daughter. Her daughter was known to be a fool, and she had challenged a fool. It was really boring!
"Please!" Yu Yin 'er turned her body slightly and said. She had let Zhang Xiuzhi choose first because she didn't want Zhang Xiuzhi to say that it was unfair.
Zhang Xiuzhi didn't stand on ceremony and sat down in front of a zither. It could be seen that the two zither were equally matched, while Yu Yin 'er sat on the other side.
Zhang Xiuzhi began to play the zither. The music was sometimes melodious and sometimes deep. She was familiar with the fingering, and the melodious sound flowed out from her fingertips like water.
