Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream
Chapter 35 The long-lost smile
Listening to Mr. Ran talking about the techniques of exquisite velvet embroidery, Wei Bingyan also became serious. After all, exquisite velvet embroidery was very rare in the capital, and she was naturally willing to study hard if she could learn a new method.
"How is it? Did you hear it clearly?" After Mr. Ran had basically finished speaking, he tilted his neck and asked Wei Bingyan.
Wei Bingyan said: "Well, I heard it clearly, but I don't know how the embroidery will turn out."
Mr. Ran smiled and said, "You will know when you go back and try it. Don't worry, take it step by step. If you don't understand anything, just ask me."
"Yes, sir." Wei Bingyan bowed and spoke softly.
"Okay, go ahead, so that everyone won't go and watch while you're still sitting here in boredom." Mr. Ran said with a smile.
Wei Bingyan smiled lightly. She had no interest in the so-called excitement at all. However, since Yang Tang said so, she had to go and see the scenery of Jinyun Academy, which was famous all over the world.
After greeting Mr. Ran and leaving the study, she saw Yang Tang standing upright outside the study, looking over. As soon as he saw her come out, he immediately waved to her.
An Xiang walked over outside the study and said, "Miss, do you want to go over?"
"Let's go and take a look!" Wei Bingyan said calmly, walking towards Yang Tang's direction.
"Bingyan, let's go to the front mountain quickly. Others have already gone there." Yang Tang had already come forward at this time, holding Wei Bingyan's arm tightly and shouting.
Wei Bingyan's body stiffened slightly. She was not used to people other than her mother being so close to her. The smile on her face was not very natural. She pulled her arm out of Yang Tang's hand without leaving a trace. "Does the academy have a Kung Fu competition every year?"
"It didn't happen before, but this year is the first time. Have you seen that Li Yuyan? He is the sharpest and most powerful person in the academy." Yang Tang looked around, his cute little face showing a resentful expression. "Many people secretly bet that he will win first place, but I feel that Xu Jinyang will definitely beat him this time."
"Oh? Why?" Wei Bingyan asked puzzledly. The Xu Jinyang that Yang Tang mentioned must be the reason why she was going to Qianshan.
"Li Yuyan is very talented, but I haven't heard of how great his skills are. Xu Jinyang comes from a military family, so his martial arts must be better than Li Yuyan's." Yang Tang mentioned Xu Jinyang directly, and her cute little face kept shining.
A smile flashed across Wei Bingyan's eyes, and she said, "So, do you think Xu Jinyang will definitely win?"
"We will definitely win!" Yang Tang didn't notice the blooming smile in Wei Bingyan's eyes, and shouted with her lips pouted.
"It seems that this Young Master Xu is very important in your eyes." Wei Bingyan said while holding back her smile.
Two red clouds appeared on Yang Tang's face. She realized that Wei Bingyan was teasing her. She immediately stretched out her hand to scratch her, "You are so annoying. Don't ridicule me! I don't recognize him."
Wei Bingyan let her hand go and smiled. She had beautiful eyebrows and eyes that curved at the ends. Her eyes were like dazzling pearls, sparkling and bright. "Okay, I won't say any more."
"Oh, Bingyan, you look so beautiful when you smile!" Yang Tang suddenly stared at her with wide eyes and exclaimed with emotion.
Wei Bingyan was stunned for a moment, then touched her face and said, "I smile every day, how come I don't say I look good?"
"That's different. That's how you smile. Normally, you smile with a dagger hidden behind your face, which doesn't look good at all. If you don't believe me, ask Anxiang if today's smile is the good-looking one?" Yang Tang asked while pulling Anxiang.
Anxiang looked at Wei Bingyan with a smile. Ever since she followed Wei Bingyan, she rarely saw Wei Bingyan laugh sincerely.
Each of her faint smiles seemed to carry a lot of little secrets, and she had an unclear sense of vigilance and caution towards everyone. Today was the first time I saw her truly pure smile.
"Miss, if you laugh, it will bring disaster to the country and the people!" Anxiang couldn't help laughing.
Wei Bingyan glared at them, "Don't tease me, I'm so beautiful that I can shame the moon and the flowers."
Was she happy? Hadn't she laughed before?
Yes, ever since she became Li Yunze's concubine, she has never truly laughed. All her laughs were false, insincere, and illusory.
Even after being reborn, she found it very difficult to give up this habit. Today...did she laugh for the last time?
That's good. She won't have to live that kind of aggrieved life anymore. She will live her life with a smile on her face from now on. If anyone makes her unhappy, she will make that person even more unhappy!
There is a Peach Blossom Spring in the front mountain. It is very large, with at least ten acres of land. There is a meadow in front of the Peach Blossom Spring.
"Bingyan!" Someone nearby called Wei Bingyan happily.
There were already quite a few people gathered around the vast meadow, all of them young men and women, forming a semicircle. Wei Bingyan couldn't see who was surrounded by them, but she could vaguely see a few targets for practice.
The one called Wei Bingyan was Xie Shujing, and standing beside her were several noble ladies whom Wei Bingyan had met before, including Chu Xueying who did not get along with Xie Shujing.
Wei Bingyan and Yang Tang walked towards them.
"Bingyan, are you here to watch the game too? Hurry up, it's about to start. The first round is an archery competition, the second round is a horse riding competition, and the third round is a combat capability competition..." Xie Shujing stretched out her hand and waved to Wei Bingyan, giving her a position in the front.
When I walked to the front, I realized that there was a martial arts arena divided by a bamboo frame. The students who were watching the excitement were standing upright outside the bamboo frame, chattering non-stop.
Wei Bingyan looked directly inside and saw several college students wearing wide-sleeved and stylish uniforms.
Li Yuyan was standing upright among the crowd in a green shirt with arrow sleeves. He had a very slender and handsome figure, and was also very graceful. His whole body exuded a proud and calm aura.
Just standing there like that was enough to attract everyone's attention.
Li Yuyan's fame and influence are unrivaled in the capital, not only because of his decisive command and profound strategic thinking, but also because of his extremely good looks...
"Bingyan, we all bet that Li Yuyan will get first place, what about you?" Xie Shujing asked with a smile on the other side of Wei Bingyan.
Yang Tang curled his lips and his eyes fell on the man near Li Yuyan. The man was tall and straight, his face was not handsome, but he had an air of incomparable determination. He seemed to see Yang Tang, and his originally solemn face softened a lot.
This man is the Xu Jinyang that Yang Tang had mentioned before!
You still say you don't recognize me? Wei Bingyan tilted her head and looked at Yang Tang.
The girl's face had turned red from shame, and she couldn't hide the love in her eyes as she looked at Xu Jinyang.
"Any woman like you is really shameless. Even if Li Yuyan won the first place, she would not thank you. There is no need for you to nag about it everywhere." Chu Xueying said mockingly, looking at Xie Shujing with contempt.
Xie Shujing pouted and said, "I'm talking to Bingyan, what does it have to do with you?"
A little girl next to Chu Xueying burst out laughing, "Xie Shujing, do you still think Bingyan is your backer? The Wei and Chu families are about to marry their children. You are shameless when I say you are shameless."
After these words were spoken, not only Xie Shujing's face changed, but even Wei Bingyan raised her eyebrows.
She almost forgot about her engagement with the Chu family.
However, thinking about the two skinny horses that Marquis Chu had sent to Wei Zhong, Wei Bingyan found it difficult to establish any blood relationship with the Chu family.
"Bingyan, are you going to marry that Prince Chu?" Yang Tang asked Wei Bingyan in a strange voice.
Wei Bingyan shook her head, "No."
Chu Xueying rolled her eyes at Wei Bingyan and rudely pushed Xie Shujing away.
Xie Shujing was furious and wanted to open her mouth to curse.
However, Chu Xueying glared at him cruelly and violently, as if she wanted to devour someone, and he was too timid to open his mouth.
"What's wrong with my brother? Why don't you marry him?" Chu Xueying looked at Wei Bingyan defiantly and felt that Wei Bingyan was simply too noble and elegant.
My mother told me that it was originally agreed that Wei Bingyan was betrothed to my brother, but how come it turned out to be that Wei Bingru.
Although Wei Bingru will be the legitimate daughter of the Wei family in the future, there is still a difference between a child born to a legitimate wife and a child born to a concubine.
Wei Bingyan looked at Chu Xueying calmly with a faint smile on her lips, "How can one make the decision on one's own in marriage? Miss Chu's question is quite strange."
Chu Xueying snorted, "Don't say such high-sounding words. You look down on my brother, but my brother may not look down on you. Don't pretend to be noble and elegant."
"So Miss Chu came here to complain about the grievances and pain she felt on behalf of your brother." Wei Bingyan suddenly realized and said with a slight smile.
"Who said that my brother was depressed and miserable? Don't flatter yourself." Chu Xuying was furious. "Maybe you secretly made a lifelong commitment with someone outside, so..."
"Miss Chu, you'd better be careful with your words. Although our Wei family is not a royal family, we are not someone that can be deliberately oppressed or bullied by others. You should think clearly about the consequences of your words." Wei Bingyan interrupted Chu Xuying and spoke softly.
This tone was very gentle, but it was full of threat, like an invisible and intangible pressure that suddenly came down, suppressing Chu Xuying and the others who were about to ridicule her, so that they didn't dare to say a word.
The Wei family is not a royal family, but they are more difficult to offend than ordinary royal families.
The atmosphere immediately became awkward, and even other people nearby noticed it and kept looking towards this place.
"Junior sister! You are here too?" Suddenly, a cheerful voice sounded.
Wei Bingyan was startled and turned around to look, only then she realized that the person standing next to Li Yuyan was Guan Hualang.
Because he was dressed differently from usual, she couldn't tell him apart at first.
Guan Hualang had already rushed to Wei Bingyan's side and said with a smile, "Junior sister, you are here to watch me and Third Senior Brother compete in the competition, right?"
"Big Brother." Wei Bingyan sighed in her heart. She didn't want to have any relationship with Guan Hualang or Li Yuyan here. "Why are you here?"
