Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Chapter 160 Imperial Examination Essay, First Female Candidate

Xing County.

Sweet Mouth Alley.

Li Ling arrived as a guest, holding a basketball hoop in her right hand and leading Gu Qi by the hand in her left.

Their arrival was also timely; Feng Yao and her son and daughter-in-law were both there. The three of them came out to greet the guests, except that the young woman was holding a toddler of about two years old in her arms.

Gu Qi looked at her.

A pair of almond-shaped eyes were looking at her curiously. When the two made eye contact, the child immediately looked away.

When Gu Qi looked away, her gaze secretly drifted back to Gu Qi.

Seeing this, Feng Yao told the child to get down. The little boy held his mother's hand and was unwilling to let go, but seeing his grandmother's sullen face, he had no choice but to let go.

"grandmother."

Xiao Tong walked up to Feng Yao, who sighed inwardly a hundred times and cursed her son and daughter-in-law under her breath.

They raised a perfectly good child to be timid and cowardly, showing no sign of her former magnanimity.

As a grandmother, she wouldn't eat people, would she?

Feng Yao then took Gu Qi's hand and introduced her to her granddaughter: "This is Sister Qi, she's four years old this year."

Then, turning to Gu Qi, he said, "This is my granddaughter, Yao De, who is two years old this year."

Gu Qi stood still and said to Yao De, "Hello, little sister." Then she looked up and asked Feng Yao, "What character is in your name, little sister?"

Feng Yao wanted to say it was the way of the Great Learning, the virtue in manifesting one's bright virtue, and considering Gu Qi's age, he dipped the characters in water and wrote them on the table.

"I've got it."

Gu Qi and Grandma Feng exchanged a few more words, then her mother, Li Ling, came over, and Gu Qi took Yao De's hand to find Yao An.

"Uncle Yao, can I ask you a few questions?" Gu Qi wanted to know the difference between Master Gu and Yao An.

Yao An had no problem with it, and they went inside to Yao An's study.

After Gu Qi was seated, let her speak.

Yao De listened to his father and older sister talking, quietly staying to the side, his gaze darting back and forth between his new sister and father.

After Yao An answered all of Gu Qi's questions, she had to admit that Uncle Yao An's achievements were genuine.

His explanations were easier for people to understand than those of Master Gu.

After thanking Yao An, Gu Qi planned to ask Yao An for help whenever he encountered problems he didn't understand.

Having finished studying, his gaze fell on Yao De, and seeing her well-behaved nature, he couldn't help but feel a little more affection for her.

"Little sister, is there anything you want to play? I'll play with you." Her little sister had just kept her company during class, now it was her turn to play with her.

Yao De's eyes lit up instantly, and she whispered, "Sister, I want a dough figurine. Can you come with me?"

"Are you outside?"

"Um."

Gu Qi glanced at the sky, which was nearing noon, and suggested, "How about we go this afternoon?"

"It's almost lunchtime."

Yao De immediately agreed, "Okay." But she tugged at Gu Qi's sleeve, "Sister, you have to tell Mother."

Her mother didn't like her eating outside food, thinking it wasn't clean.

Gu Qi pointed to herself: "Should I go and tell them?"

Yao De lowered her head and said, "Mm." She felt that her mother would not refuse guests, especially those her grandmother liked.

Gu Qi patted her head, agreeing like an adult before sighing, "Okay."

Yao De was even happier and pulled Gu Qi to find her swing: "Sister Qi, here you go play." She even wanted to push it to Gu Qi.

Gu Qi felt that swaying back and forth wasn't challenging, mainly because she couldn't fly very high, so she quickly stood on the wooden plank, pulling Yao De along with her.

After circling around a few times, someone called me to eat.

After lunch.

Under Yao De's watchful gaze, Gu Qi told the young woman, Aunt Aya, about what had happened outside.

When the topic of dough figurines came up, Aya's gaze fell on her daughter, but both children's eyes were sparkling, and she couldn't refuse.

Take a short nap in the afternoon.

Li Ling only felt that Aunt Feng's house had many rooms, and she was resting in a guest's room.

Feng Yao, Li Ling, and Aya brought their children out to make dough figurines.

The woman kneading dough figurines was standing to the side of the teahouse entrance. Feng Yao introduced the storyteller in the teahouse to Li Ling, saying that his stories were interesting.

Invite her to listen.

Li Ling didn't refuse; she knew that for two people to be together, they needed to have common interests.

The three of them found a seat on the first floor, with Gu Qi and Yao De each holding two dough figurines.

Gu Qi held a tiger and herself in her hand, while Yao De held a rabbit and himself in his hand.

"Mom, look, I'm fighting a tiger." She took her dough figurine and punched the tiger dough figurine, which was controlled by her hand and retreated step by step.

Seeing how much fun Aqi was having, Li Ling couldn't help but smile and made up her mind to take Aqi to see more fun things.

Seeing this, Yao De also started hitting the rabbit in her hand with her own.

For a moment, I felt incredibly powerful.

Seeing the two children having so much fun, Feng Yao's granddaughter smiled much more generously and offered to buy the children three clay figurines next time.

"Aqi, you can't compete with Grandma Feng next time, can you?"

Gu Qi nodded: "No, Grandma Feng, next time I want Sun Wukong."

"it is good."

Yao De also proactively requested, "I want Tang Zeng."

Feng Yao agreed.

As they were talking, the storyteller came up on stage. She was tall and had a spirited look in her eyes, but there was a dark ring under her eyes.

Today's story: The tale of Fang Xiangong from the previous dynasty, from a farmer's son to the prime minister who ruled the country.

The storyteller chooses versions featuring protagonists from wish-fulfillment novels to get the audience emotionally engaged and encourage them to tip her.

Gu Qi sat up straight, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the storyteller, as if she were captivated by the characters in the story.

They even forgot about kneading the dough in their hands.

"So, do you know where Prime Minister Fang and Emperor Wen first met?" The storyteller slammed his clappers down and said, "It was in a teahouse."

The people in the teahouse laughed heartily, looking around at each other. Gu Qi also looked around.

"Sister, what are you looking at?"

"They are looking for the emperor."

Gu Qi whispered into Yao De's ear.

Not seeing anything to the left or right, she looked towards the second floor of the teahouse, looking right, then left, and finally met someone's gaze.

Luo Sheng, who was on the second floor, didn't expect to make eye contact with a child. She glanced at the child and saw his round eyes.

He had a round face, was delicate and cute, and was also very bold, even smiling and waving at her.

Luo Sheng's initial anxiety was calmed down by the children's laughter. She also had a daughter and an adopted son.

Although she didn't have much of a mother's heart, she still did.

Gu Qi saw the person above waving at her, holding a plate of pea flour cake for her.

"Mother, there's an older sister calling me from upstairs." Gu Qi pointed to Luo Sheng's location and got off the bench.

Ignoring even the storyteller's tale, I walked quickly upstairs.

Li Ling kept her eyes fixed on her daughter's back as she explained to Feng Yao that the child had run away.

Before Gu Qi could reach the kind person, she felt many people staring at her, so she stopped and looked around.

She caught someone, and that person smiled at her, indicating that he meant her no harm.

Without thinking further, Gu Qi walked over to Luo Sheng and greeted her, "Hello, sister."

Luo Sheng: "..."

A helpless smile tugged at the corner of her lips: "You can't call me 'sister,' I have a child at home who's a little younger than you."

"Auntie," Gu Qi said, using a different form of address.

Meihua felt that her mistress had been framed, and that the child was trying to claim kinship.
