Those who were in the same room were slightly stunned by Qixuan's words.
The Young Master who had originally given a statement and had somehow intentionally or unintentionally humiliated Qixuan fell silent.
But he was annoyed with the mocking smile that was plastered for real on Qixuan's face. This Grand Miss of the General family was brave enough to offend him who was in fact the nephew of the Emperor's Beloved Grand Concubine. Heh, just a nephew why so proud?
"Of course, Yue'er has a different way of thinking than you. Your behavior is also very different, Yue'er is so gentle and shy while you as a Young Miss look so forthright." The Young Master compared them to piss Qixuan off.
Qixuan who heard that was annoyed but she instead felt amused by the remark the Young Master had sent out and found a loophole to counterattack.
Qixuan covered part of her face with her sleeves, chuckling and saying.
"Young Master, calling Biaomei with such an intimate call. It seems like Biaomei already has a suitable partner, I am so envious. Isn't that a blessing from the sky for both families?" Qixuan's words impliedly explained their intimate relationship, as they currently did not have any special attachments but this Young Master had already summoned Xiu Yue in front of the crowd with such an intimate call, making Xiu Yue's reputation as an innocent girl tarnished.
Initially the other person who heard the Young Master's remark was no one paying more attention to detail because it was focused by the way the legitimate Son of the Mayor's family humiliated the Grand Miss of the General's family - indeed an interesting spectacle, which was not a very good thing, but after Qixuan spoke like that there were from them who were whispering badly about what kind of relationship Xiu Yue and this Young Master had.
The girl they were talking about had not yet come.
Maybe if you hear all this talk, Xiu Yue will act more to make the atmosphere more tense and make Qixuan more challenged.
The Young Master displayed a darkened look on his face as if he understood Qixuan's intention of counterattacking making Xiu Yue's name become indirectly tarnished by his actions.
"You..." The Young Master said angrily but was cut off as the door of the main hall opened featuring two women of different ages.
The clothes that the two women wore were very conspicuously visible to those who were like the Hosts of this banquet. This is an event for Qixuan.
Really want to attract popularity, thought Qixuan while shaking her head.
"Greetings to the Great General, the Vice General, the Second Young Master and the Great Miss." They both said respectfully.
The Great General nodded from earlier he only noticed the behavior of his Princess who was so confident and clever.
Qixuan who was looking at them-smiled happily.it seemed that their main topic had arrived at just the right time.
Seeing the nod of their General standing up and Xiu Yue approached Qixuan with the item her maid had given her.
"Biaojie, I'm sorry we were late for being too eager to find the right item to be a gift and until we forgot the time." Xiu Yue said
"Don't know, is Biaojie willing to accept the gift I've prepared?" Xiu Yue continued to hand the item on her arm to Qixuan, she displayed an expression so innocent and weak. Qixuan was about to melt but had to remain insistent and must not trust this human like Xiu Yue because she learned so many things from the colossal drama, in a girl-type drama like Xiu Yue is the antagonist right?
But Qixuan was sure humans had two sides, not necessarily Xiu Yue was so evil and continued to pretend.
'Sok familiar' Qixuan said inwardly, but outside she put on a gentle smiling expression and took the gift.
"It's been troubling you." Said Qixuan who was so reluctant to say thank you.
"Has the banquet not yet begun?" Asked the second Madam to pay attention to the atmosphere that there was no singing and dancing like a banquet.
"Second Lady, the banquet just wanted to start but there were some obstacles." Qixuan replied glancing at the Young Master was cynical.
The second mistress frowned confusedly and Xiu Yue put on a questioning face as Qixuan gave such a cynical look to the Young Master but then Xiu Yue's gaze changed and she slightly smiled happily, I don't know what that means.
The Mayor who saw his son's shameful behavior immediately spoke up.
"The Great Lady is so noble and virtuous. My son has offended, Miss. Please Miss be willing to be merciful." The Mayor cupped his hands together.
Just now Qixuan wanted to talk Huanran had already cut off his words.
"Master Master is so condescending, Xuan'er won't notice those trifles." Huanran
"Yes, it's true what my son, Mr. Mayor, said. Better continue this banquet." The Big General's timpals shifted the topic.
Huanran did not want his sister to go any further and cause trouble the first time he entered the noble circle, so he helped put an end to it.
After all he had already retaliated against the Young Master's attack, but Qixuan would not be silent if anyone intended to look for trouble with him.
The banquet began and many took Qixuan to speak or could be said to only intend to lick it.
The behavior of the guests looked different when with Xiu Yue there were some Young Lords who intended to approach Xiu Yue but stopped at the thought of Qixuan's words and there were some Young Miss whispering talking about Xiu Yue.
It seemed like Second Madam and Xiu Yue would soon know what Qixuan had done earlier which made Xiu Yue's name tarnished.
Qixuan saw Xiu Yue being approached and spoke to Young Master the mayor's legitimate son. They do look close. Xiu Yue smiled shyly as she spoke to the mayor's son, Qixuan was a little disgusted at him.
But it was quite a thumbs up because Xiu Yue was smart to choose a man who was quite status in this city, let alone a nephew of the Emperor's Beloved Grand Concubine who was indirectly her Imperial kinship family.
In the middle of the event Xiu Yue performed some beautiful dances that made the guests so stunned, that they forgot that Big Miss Xiu was Qixuan.
Qixuan who saw the dance also looked at it with admiration and enjoyed the dance while eating snacks provided on her desk.
Hey, he's a big fan of colossal dramas and there must be some parts of the drama that dance like Xiu Yue but he's never seen firsthand, when he could see straight away he wouldn't waste a chance and spread his admiration right?
When the dance was finished, Xiu Yue looked down and said hello.
"Biaojie, please be advised that my dance does not impress you at your banquet. But if Biaojie is willing to ask for his guidance by performing in your special way because I hear Biaojie is very good at music and presenting poetry." Xiu Yue said to Qixuan, she was intending to take revenge on Qixuan as if she already knew what the situation was when she and her mother had not yet reached the banquet.
Xiu Yue knew Qixuan had no talent for noble women in general, other than such exquisite calligraphy skills. but by humiliating Qixuan he will be satisfied and the rumors about him will be covered with rumors belonging to Qixuan. Really smart way.
Qixuan who was eating a snack heard the words choked in shock.
"Ohuk.Uhuk." The female servant nearby hurriedly poured water and helped Qixuan drink it.
'Heh, since when am I good at music and poetry? I have no talent here.' Eluh Qixuan in heart.
Guests who saw Qixuan's overreaction whispered.
"The reaction is so big, is he really that proficient?"
"I'm sure she's not proficient because she's been studying in the village for a long time, there are indeed teachers who teach talent to be noble women there."
"Maybe Xiu Yue wants to trap him."
And other whispers.
Xiu Haocun, Xiu Jierui and Huanran looked at Qixuan anxiously because they knew Qixuan had never been taught and educated into noble women with abilities such as Dancing, Playing Musical Instruments, Chess, Painting, Calligraphy, and so on, Writing Poetry and Writing Poetry.
All they knew was that Qixuan's abilities only existed in her Calligraphy which was so beautiful. But now that Xiu Yue said Qixuan was good at music if Qixuan rejected her she would be seen as a useless Big Miss and have no talent as a noble lady.
