In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 131 Yangfu City Banquet 2



Chapter 131 Yangfu City Banquet 2

"Second Master Xun, didn't you say that Miss Su would exchange paintings with us? Why hasn't she come out yet?" a man asked, holding a painting in his hand.

"Mr. Xin, don't be anxious. Lady Su has been driving in the carriage for the whole morning, so she still needs to have a meal first. My father will send someone to invite her soon." Xun Haoxuan said.

"I heard that Miss Su is not only a great painter, but also an excellent calligrapher of poems. Miss Su is also beautiful and gentle, and there are only three gentlemen in her backyard." said a young man.

"Mr. Chang, are you interested in Miss Su?" Xun Haoxuan asked.

"I'm afraid that Miss Su doesn't like me! I heard that Miss Su's master is from Fengdu Yang family, and her concubine is the eldest son of Lu family, a wealthy family in Yixian County. They are both good-looking and elegant. I don't have any chance." Chang Wen said casually.

"Mr. Chang is talented in all aspects, but Lady Su stayed in Yangfu City for too short a time, so we're afraid we don't have a chance." said a man.

"Second Master Xun, do you think Lady Su will choose one of us?" Xin Kang asked curiously.

Prefect Xun specially held a banquet for Miss Su, probably to win her over. He also invited young talents and literati from Yangfu City. There must be a deep meaning behind this!

Everyone's eyes turned to Xun Haoxuan.

"I don't know what my father and the others have arranged. I was studying in the study this morning! I also just learned that Miss Su from Yi County will attend today's banquet." Xun Haoxuan said casually.

He had never been interested in matters between men and women, thinking that women were too spoiled and too amorous. He always saw his father, a prefect, returning home to serve his mother after a day's duty, and his mother would bring new men into the prefecture every month, some of whom were as old as him.

After his eldest brother got married, he was either busy taking care of his dowry business or trying to win the favor of his wife. He did not have the same high spirits as before.

He thought that he could live alone for two years, and when he reached the age to get married in four or five years, he could let his father choose a wife for him.

Here, Su Yueyao and Yang Qianxun were still talking to the women at the banquet. At this time, a servant came over and spoke softly to Miss Xun.

Miss Xun stood up and said, "Miss Su has just finished her meal. Can you follow me for a walk?"

"Of course." Su Yueyao stood up and said.

The two walked out of the banquet side by side. Lady Xun smiled and said, "Lady Su, all the scholars and literati in Yangfu City have arrived today. At the banquet ahead, they are all waiting for Lady Su to show up!"

"Miss Xun, can you not go? I want to set off early." Su Yueyao refused.

"The eunuch Fuxin is still having dinner, and they will probably set off at the beginning of the afternoon. If Lady Su really doesn't want to go, that's fine." Lady Xun said with a smile.

"I...."

"My servant greets the lady, Lady Su." A servant bowed.

"Lady Su, the scholars and gentlemen are waiting for you at the banquet. The adults are here to ask if you would like to go over now?"

Su Yueyao sighed and said, "Please lead the way, Miss Xun, I'll go over and take a look."

"Go!"

Lady Xun watched Su Yueyao leave and then returned to the women's banquet. Su Yueyao followed the yamen runner in front of her.

"Ayao, if you really don't want to stay here, let's just leave." Yang Qianxun said.

"I think the prefect really wants me to go! Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent someone here specially. After all, he is the prefect, so let's give him some face!" Su Yueyao said softly.

"My dear wife, please don't drink any food that we don't give you, including tea, do you understand?" Lu Yuanyi said, perhaps understanding a little.

"okay, I get it."

When Su Yueyao arrived, all the gentlemen at the banquet looked at her.

Damn it, a group of men...without even a woman among them. Is there no female painter in Yangfu City?

"Greetings, Miss Su." The man immediately stopped talking and bowed when he saw Su Yueyao.

Su Yueyao endured it and stood there without moving, but Yang Qianxun and Lu Yuanyi behind her immediately returned the greeting.

"Don't be so polite, everyone." Su Yueyao said in a calm tone.

It was the first time for her to see a yard full of men, about 20 to 30 people, all of them good-looking.

But at this moment she had no mood to appreciate it, as she always felt that they would tear her apart... All of their eyes were staring at her.

"Miss Su is here. Here are all the literati from Yangfu City, and there are also painters! I wonder if Miss Su can have some exchanges with them?" said Prefect Xun.

This was specially done by him. If he could get some advice from her, it would be a great contribution to his achievements if some of these literati could become painters next year.

In Fengluan Country, anyone who is educated and goes to school can be called a literati, but only very few can become painters, zither players, chess players, etc.

"Of course." Su Yueyao smiled unnaturally.

Afterwards, Su Yueyao was led to sit in a higher seat.

As soon as Su Yueyao sat down, a young man came forward with a painting.

"Ms. Su, I am the son of the Xin family in the capital. I am currently learning painting. I wonder if you could show me your paintings?" Xin Kang asked with a smile.

"Okay, let me take a look!"

Xin Kang immediately took out the painting he had just painted recently.

Su Yueyao looked up and saw a very simple landscape painting. The retouching was very stiff and most of the colors were unblended, which made the colors very eye-catching.

"Is there anyone else who wants to see my paintings? What I draw is actually different from what you draw. If this is what your master teaches, you can actually continue to practice painting according to what your master teaches." Su Yueyao said.

"Ms. Su, my master took a picture of one of your paintings. The artistic conception is really great. My master has been studying how you painted it and has copied a lot, but the effect is not very good." Xin Kang said.

"Is there a drawing table?" Su Yueyao was ready to draw out some common sense directly, thinking that they would understand, right?

"Of course." Prefect Xun immediately signaled his servants to prepare the table and paint.
