Seeing Gu Jinyan eager to give it a try, Ding Jia took it to heart. He was really unwilling to lose to Gu Jinyan in the previous chess game. He glanced at Gu Jinyu, who nodded slightly. Ding Jia said directly: "Since it is a competition, of course anyone can do it, but I think
You have to participate, but you have to get a lottery prize."
"This gift cannot be anything. Qi Huan gave me a fine jade pendant, and Jin Yu gave me a phoenix-shaped hairpin." Ding Jia said with some disdain.
Like Gu Jinyan, what good things can she come up with as a bonus?
She just wanted to embarrass her at this time.
Gu Jinyan casually took out the amber bow on his head and put it in the lottery tray: "Is this okay?"
The color of this amber is excellent and of top quality.
Ding Jia was speechless.
She didn't expect Gu Jinyan to come up with something decent. Just a few months ago, when she saw Gu Jinyan, she had a plain silver hairpin in her head. Even the maids around her couldn't wear something like that.
It's really embarrassing.
There was no way he could beat Gu Jinyan in terms of winnings, so Ding Jia quickly changed his mind: "In that case, let's compete together for those who have won the winnings."
"I'm participating too." Gu Jinyu gave a casual shake.
Gu Jinyu did not participate just now. The step she gave Ding Jia was to participate in the competition. Ding Jia's pot throwing has always been very good, but it is more difficult for Ding Jia during this time. It seems that all his monthly salary has been spent.
Since Gu Jinyan overestimated his ability and insisted on being in the limelight here, he entered White Deer Academy for the first time, so he gave her a little show.
"Since Jin Yu is also involved, let's start over." Ding Jia applauded.
Their throwing pots are all very good.
Normally, when there was nothing to do, they would either play at the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion or at the Huiling Marquis Mansion. Ding Jia and Gu Jinyu were the best at playing pot.
"If you do it all over again, you will do it all over again." Meng Yun also got excited at this moment.
They are bound to get Ah Huan's jade pendant and must win it back.
The competition between these noble ladies became more lively, attracting many male students from White Deer Academy to come and watch.
There are many children from aristocratic families inside.
Men were usually not allowed to participate in their pot throwing competitions, so Ding Jia subconsciously wanted to drive them away.
Gu Jinyu gave her a look.
Ding Jia then gave up.
Since he participated, Gu Jinyu wanted to show off his talents in this pot throwing competition.
She's about to get her haircut, and it's time for her to get married.
Before this, all her social interactions were with the ladies of Kyoto, so it was time to show off. At this time, and with her status as a destined phoenix, she would surely attract even more attention.
These young men from aristocratic families did not expect to be able to take a look. They were all very excited. Those who were nearby were pulled over to take a look.
The noble ladies of Kyoto compete in pot throwing, which is a rare scene.
You can't see it at all on weekdays, that is, at White Deer Academy.
The eldest son of Huilinghou Palace is also here with his classmates, as well as the young master of the Shen family, the eldest son of Duke Yanguo, the young prince of Jiaqing Palace, and the second son of Duke Zhongyong.
Yang Huaichang, the second son of Duke Zhongyong, was the most active one: "Brother Ding, your sister-in-law is also here. I heard that your sister-in-law is very good at throwing pots."
The prince of Huiling Houfu said modestly: "Ding Jia is good at throwing pots, but she is not as elegant as the eldest lady of Zhenbei Houfu."
At this moment, Yang Huaichang saw Gu Jinyu, the eldest daughter of the Zhenbei Houfu. This was the second time he met her. The first time he met her, she was still young. My mother-in-law said that she was the eldest daughter of the Zhenbei Houfu.
Miss, these young people all know one thing, that is, the eldest daughter of Zhenbei Houfu is the Phoenix Girl of Destiny. According to the prophecy, the Phoenix Girl of Destiny is the one who can resolve the crisis and save the people of Dawn. In the hearts of every young man, Zhenbei
The eldest daughter of the Marquis is also a dream-like figure.
In imagination, she is a fairy-like figure, kind and full of spirituality.
Until one year, his mother's birthday party invited Mrs. Zhenbeihou, who came with her legitimate daughter Gu Jinyu. He saw Mrs. Zhenbeihou and her legitimate daughter in the garden of his house.
She was the young lady he saw slapping the maid repeatedly.
Looking at this destined phoenix girl again, the boy's dream was shattered. She was not the kind and brave young lady who was the duke of Zhenbei as imagined.
Naturally, I have not paid much attention to her in these years.
Now that I see her again, she still doesn't have the aura of the Destiny Phoenix Girl. She is no different from the ladies in Kyoto, with arrogance and rudeness on her face.
Yang Huaichang didn't say much, but put away his gaze, pointed at Gu Jinyan who was next to Meng Yun and Qi Huan, and asked: "That young lady is very unfamiliar, who is she?"
Ding Ji looked in the direction pointed by Yang Huaichang and saw Gu Jinyan.
At this time, she had tied up the cumbersome fabrics on her clothes, and she looked neat and tidy. She didn't care about her beauty and ugliness at this time, but under the sun, the confidence and beauty on her face were indescribable.
Eye.
Ding Ji was a little surprised. Is the second lady of the Gu family like this?
Some of it was blurry in his memory.
He didn't see Miss Gu Er very often. He usually went to Zhenbei Houfu to pick up his sister. Occasionally, he would meet her. She usually lowered her head and acted obediently, or she had something to ask of Gu Jinyu.
In front of her, she is even more humble than a maid.
The face is still the same, but the person seems to be completely different from that person.
"Gu Jinyan, the second young lady of the Gu family, is the daughter of Lord Shangshu." Ding Ji answered as calmly as possible.
"It seems that I have never heard of such a person before." The young master of the Shen family said subconsciously.
The young prince of Jiaqing Mansion also nodded.
There were only a few noble ladies in Kyoto, and they knew almost all of them, except for some concubine ladies.
"Is she a concubine?" Yang Huaichang asked curiously, without taking his eyes away from the person.
"Legendary." Ding Ji replied.
Yang Huaichang had a look of astonishment on his face. Although he was astonished, he didn't think too much about it. Things in the inner house have always been complicated. Even if he is a legitimate daughter, who knows what happened.
He looked pretty good.
She is much more eye-catching than the eldest lady of the Gu family.
"Huaichang, why are you asking so many questions? No matter how beautiful the minister's daughter is, just look at her and forget about other things." The young prince of Jiaqing Mansion said casually.
Who in this family is not rushing to marry Miss Gu?
Lord Shangshu does a lot of things in the court. If you marry a young lady from his family, you will be dragged down sooner or later.
"Why are you nagging like a woman?" Yang Huaichang replied unceremoniously, feeling a little irritated at the same time.
The young prince said it, and he knew what it meant.
