Chapter 10
"The time has come, all ladies who have written lotus poems, please hand over your masterpieces here."
Bai Fu watched the incense stick burn out in the censer, motioned for the girl to knock down the gong, and raised her voice to announce that the scroll was closed.
Gu Shu and her mother exchanged a win-win look, and first handed in the carefully copied and dried poems.
"Hard work mother."
Bai Fu responded with a smile:
"Children's words. Mother is just sitting there admiring the lotus flowers and looking at the scenery. What's the hard work? You guys have worked hard on writing poems. Take a sip of walnut juice to nourish your brain and quench your thirst."
"Mother is the most considerate."
Gu Shu acted coquettishly, took on the responsibility of the host, arranged for the girls to serve walnut dew to the ladies, and exchanged greetings with everyone.
The ladies of each family handed in the papers one after another, looking at each other's poems on the way, or complimenting each other sincerely or perfunctorily.
Yu Mei looked on with cold eyes and was not in a hurry to hand in the paper.
When a person who looked like a daughter-in-law in charge came over, she reported a few words to Gu Shu's mother, and hurriedly led him away, so she calmly went up and handed in her poems.
"Are you going to take this poem to Gu Shilang and other elders for evaluation?"
Yu Meisi asked politely, her voice was not high, so she didn't attract the attention of Gu Shu, who was surrounded by stars and moons.
"Yes. We also want to judge the top three here. The lottery is very generous. I hope that Miss will be among the best."
The girl explained sweetly, she didn't seem to recognize her.
Yu Mei looked deeply at the girl, and smiled softly with the corners of her mouth curled up:
"Then I'll borrow your auspicious words."
She turned to leave, and the large sleeved robe seemed to sweep across the table unintentionally.
She looked down, gave a soft click, and bent down to pick up a scroll of poetry.
"One of them dropped."
The girl hurriedly took it, put it neatly into the stack of poems written in black and white, and thanked her repeatedly.
"You don't need to be so polite. With so many people here today, it's inevitable that you make mistakes in your busy schedule. It's fine if you don't throw them away. Collect them quickly and send them for review, so you can get rid of your errands early."
Yu Mei comforted her softly, and received the grateful eyes of the little girl, as well as unanimous praise from the ladies who handed in the paper later, saying that she was beautiful and kind-hearted.
Yu Mei blushed slightly, and said humbly:
"Sisters, don't make fun of me. I didn't do anything. If it were any of us, we wouldn't want to let our hard work fall to the ground, so we wouldn't be able to participate in the review fairly, would we?"
The people in the flower sedan chair carried people, Yu Mei spoke nicely, and the other little sisters also gave face, talking to each other cute things, it was inevitable that they would talk about Yu Mei's skirt.
"Sister Yu, this dress is really beautiful. Are you going to dance next? Then I will bet on my sister to win."
Yu Mei smiled quietly and shook her head.
"You don't know me yet? I'm weak, and I don't look good at dancing, so I won't show my ugliness. But for the next contest, I intend to give it a try, so as not to sit and be bored. Everyone, come together."
Everyone chattered and laughed to make fun of it. Some said they wanted to dance, some said they wanted to draw pictures, some said they wanted to throw pots, and some didn't participate in anything, just eating as spectators.
"My sisters are talking so lively, why don't you take me to play with you?"
Gu Tu came in belatedly, bringing in the fragrance of flowers all over her body, and the crisp and sweet voice of the little milk was particularly pleasant to the ears.
"Ah, which family's child is this? It looks familiar. Could it be that you can't find your family members? Who brought you here? Don't be afraid, sister will feed you some fruit."
The person who spoke was a young lady from a military commander's family. She was quite chivalrous and was used to taking care of her younger siblings at home, so she naturally said hello first.
"I belong to the Gu family, my name is Gu Tu."
Gu Tu imitated Gu Shu's expression, smiling sweetly and harmlessly.
"Are you Gu Shu's younger sister?"
The sharp-eyed young lady recognized her immediately.
It just so happened that when the gong sounded over there, the audience was silent, but this sentence was highlighted.
Gu Tu nodded obediently, and generously admitted:
"Yes, I'm here to find my sister."
