Dreaming back to the Qing Dynasty: Die Luo Chuchen

Chapter 15 Relief
Zhang Tingyu smiled, "It's nothing, just a snuff bottle."

The sisters were waving at me. In the crowd, Xue Lian looked at me fixedly, with jealousy and displeasure in her eyes. I don't know why she looked at me like this.Surrounded by jeweled Yingyans, my father sat on his seat waiting for my gift.I made up my mind, walked over, wrapped the smelling pot in a handkerchief and held it to my father.

He opened it, and exclaimed in surprise, "What a delicate smelling pot." He handed it to the side, and the officials at the same table passed it on one by one, and they all followed suit in admiration.My father was very happy with his old consolation. "Mulan still understands Dad's thoughts, I like this gift very much!"

I breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to my father, and finally returned my heart to its original position.

"By the way, a few days ago your mother wrote that you were not in good health, but now you are better? Pay more attention to your health." Father's tone showed love.

"Yes." I saluted again.

None of the sisters thought that the gift I gave was unique, which really made my father happy.At that moment, the way I looked at me changed completely, with envy, jealousy, and suspicion.In short, this time I felt the closeness between the sisters. On the surface, everyone laughed and played, but secretly they naturally competed with each other. Who wouldn't want to win more favors in front of their father.

Back to the original position, I raised my eyes to look opposite, Zhang Tingyu raised the teacup and gestured to me.Seeing this, Mr. Nalan walked over with a wine glass, but the arrogant voice had already arrived before he arrived. "Ha, Miss Mulan, no one else saw what happened just now, but I saw it for real. If you have the honor to drink this glass of wine, I won't mention anything. If you don't drink it, then you will have to... Do you want to think about whether it's a face or not?"

Seeing his cheeky face, I frowned slightly.The girls at the same table whispered to each other, they couldn't understand Mr. Nalan's behavior.Seeing this, Ting Lu's face changed and she was about to get up.Ting Yu hurriedly held down his hand, signaling him to be calm and calm.If it was in Zhang's house, Ting Lu would have turned the tables a long time ago, but this is Yao's house after all, so they should be more or less concerned about the master's face and not to make trouble easily.It seems that this trouble that came to him had to be solved by himself.So, I smiled and took the glass. "It's not difficult to have a glass of wine, but Mr. Nalan has to promise me one condition."

"There are still conditions?"

"Of course. I have heard for a long time that Mr. Nalan is very talented, but the little girl doesn't believe it. I just took this opportunity to ask you a question today, how about it?"

"You?" Mr. Nalan looked me up and down, not believing that I could come up with such a difficult problem.He readily agreed. "Okay, my son will never refuse."

"This question is a bit difficult. If you lose, you will have to drink three glasses of wine as a punishment."

Hearing what I said, the sisters at the same table thought that I really made a question, and even the people in the male guest table over there looked over.Seeing my solemn expression, Nalan disapproved and urged me to come up with the question quickly.

"It's too much for a young girl to write poems and essays for Mr. Nalan. This question is a test of your memory." I took three cups and lined them up. Everyone didn't know what I was selling in this gourd. Medicine, everyone looked puzzled.Some of the guests at the nearby tables also turned their heads and looked at this side. "These three cups are called Wangjiang Tower in turn."
