ninth junior sister

Chapter 138

Originally, she carried a lot of silver taels with her when she went out, but many of them were taken away by the bronze mask man, and now she only has a little bit of silver taels left on her body.

The silver is only enough for her to spend tonight, and from tomorrow onwards, she will be penniless.

She desperately needs to find a way to make money.

"Hey..." After Ling Xiaoruo sighed, he sat on the corner of the street for a long time before finding the nearest inn to live in.

This night, because there was no monitoring by the man in the bronze mask, she slept very peacefully.

The next day, the orange morning light penetrated the window and shone on Ling Xiaoruo's bed.

She opened her eyes, stretched her waist and got up.

After washing up, she left the inn and started wandering on the street.There were many medical clinics on the street, if Ling Xiao went in and asked, most of them didn't accept short-term workers, even if they accepted short-term workers, they would pay her tens of dollars a day, and it would be impossible to go to Yanbei.

"How can I make money quickly?" Ling Xiaoruo scratched his head, but couldn't think of a good way.

While wandering around, Ling Xiaoruo inadvertently went to a street. Yesterday because it was a harvest celebration, every street was crowded with people, but today, it was different, only the bustling street had pedestrians with businessman.

The street where she is now is undoubtedly bustling, because at this time the crowd is bustling with tourists.What caught her eyes even more was that there seemed to be a very wide space in the middle of the street, just like a modern civic square.

She was walking on the square, and when she looked up, she saw a banner with black characters on a white background, which was very clear. After seeing it clearly, she couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes, which were full of excitement, because the banner There are no surprising words written on it, only the following words: piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, one of the winners will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver.

When Ling Xiaoruo saw these words, the white silver had already circled her head, the amount was 200 taels of silver.

Among these eight, there are two that she is confident of getting the first place, one is piano, and the other is chess. Maybe after a little struggle, her other kind of painting may also be able to get the first place as a whole.

In this way, all the money to go to Yanbei can be obtained, and they can live a more comfortable life.

Ling Xiaoruo slapped both palms, went to the queue and stood at the end.

When she got to the rear, she asked the woman in front suspiciously: "My lady, what kind of competition is this, and what is the intention?"

When the woman in front turned around, after looking Ling Xiaoruo up and down, her eyes widened, and the fire of jealousy in her eyes ignited like a prairie fire, causing her whole body to heat up.

After staring, she turned around without answering Ling Xiaoruo's words.

When Ling Xiaoruo saw her movements, he couldn't help but twitched the corners of his eyes, and cursed a freak in his heart.

The queue was like a long queue, after waiting for a long time, when Ling Xiaoruo's legs were completely numb, it was her turn to sign up.

The person who was sitting in front of the table and was in charge of signing up was wearing the uniform of a servant. He was completely numb because he had already dealt with too many of the same things. When Ling Xiaoruo came to him, he didn't lift his head. Asked: "What is the name?"

Ling Xiaoruo replied: "Xiao Ling."

When the boy heard Ling Xiaoruo's voice, he raised his eyes and looked up. After this look, he immediately stared blankly, and saw the woman in front of him wearing plain clothes, and her black hair was simply lying on her side. Pulling her hair up in a bun, her youthful beauty suddenly appeared in her gaze, and she was stunningly beautiful.

Since the servant stared blankly, Ling Xiaoruo slapped him in front of his eyes without continuing to ask, "May I ask what kind of competition this is, and what is its purpose?"

Hearing this, the young servant came back to his senses immediately, with a smile on his face, he asked: "Is this the girl who came to Jinren for the first time?"

Ling Xiaoruo nodded.

The servant continued: "Our Murong Villa is recruiting maids."

When Ling Xiaoruo heard the words, his eyes twitched, and he said in a daze, "Your maid?"

Is there a mistake?It's just recruiting a maid, does it need such a big battle?What was even more frightening was that there were still so many people queuing up, some of whom seemed to be young ladies.These people are so willing to work as maids in Murong Villa?

What kind of villa is Murong Villa, is it awesome?
"Yes," the boy nodded, and then said: "The contestants have to go through the first, second, and final selections, and the final winner can enter the mansion."

The corners of Ling Xiaoruo's mouth twitched uncontrollably: "It's just recruiting a maid, there's no need to be so grandiose."

The boy shook his head and said, "We didn't expect this to happen. We just said that we were looking for a servant girl for the young master, and we ended up in this state."

When the young man spoke, he was always concealing his pride, as if his young master was so stalwart, as if he had poured out the hearts of all the women in the world, which made him sigh with regret.That expression seemed to say, it's all because my young master is so handsome!
Ling Xiaoruo pointed to the banner above his head and said: "Does this mean?"

The servant nodded and said: "It counts, we at Murong Villa never default on our debts."

Ling Xiaoruo then asked: "Didn't you say that you have to participate in the next round of competition after one round?"

The competition must be categorized based on piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and poetry. After the competition, each category will have a winner, and these winners should go to the next round of competitions, so that the final winner can be determined. The winner, her goal is just to get the money, and she is not good at being a maid, so she still needs to ask clearly about this, so as not to get into a thief's boat.

After hearing this, the boy twitched the corners of his eyes, is there anyone who is not willing to participate in the next round of competition?After twitching, he shook his head and said, "There is no rule about this."

Ling Xiaoruo raised his eyes, and immediately said coolly: "Continue to sign up!"

The boy was probably surprised by her heroic appearance, and he was stunned for a while before continuing to report his name.

After signing up, Ling Xiaoruo was invited to an inn. The inn was filled with women of various colors, fat and thin, tall and exquisite, each with its own merits.

After a short rest, the preliminary test was held. Out of the eight items, she chose three, piano, chess and painting. After the preliminary test, Ling Xiaoruo naturally advanced to the next round.

After the first round of preliminary competition, the person in charge notified them of the time for the second round of competition.

Ling Xiaoruo returned to the inn after remembering the time.

The time for the second round of competition was the morning of the third day. When Ling Xiaoruo went to the competition location, he realized that there seemed to be very few people participating in the competition.

At a glance, there seemed to be only about twenty people.

The competition started soon. Ling Xiaoruo's first competition was painting. She studied western painting since elementary school and never dabbled in traditional Chinese painting. Therefore, what she drew was naturally a sketch. After a sketch was completed, the chief judge of the review Although Guan felt that her paintings had a sense of objects and meticulous brushwork, they were still a little different from the usual aesthetics. Therefore, she only came second in the painting competition, and the first 100 taels of silver came from her. Flying past.
