Chapter 144: Continue to compete

A few smiles appeared on the priest's wrinkled face: "The winter solstice is not here, it's still early."
"Then ask the priest for the assessment!" Han Yuqing smiled slightly, showing the demeanor of the ladies in a low-key manner.
The priest said: "Miss Han is so in love with others, no one in Pingning knows. No need to take the exam."
"How can it work?" Han Yuqing said, "The rules must not be broken."
The priest handed over the book that Xia Qianqian had just read to Han Yuqing. Han Yuqing had learned literal hyphenation since childhood and could easily read it out.
"Miss Han has also passed." The priest said.
Han Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked with a smile: "How many girls are there who don't know how to pass?"
"There are Miss Han and Miss Xia." The title priest is particularly interesting. They are also unmarried women, one lady and one girl, and the identity gap is instant.
Xia Qianqian was not convinced, but she couldn't help it because she was a country girl at present. She looked at Han Yuqing, and Han Yuqing was also looking at her.
"It turns out that Miss Xia is not only proud, but also talented." Han Yuqing smiled lightly.
Xia Qianqian smiled and said, "Don't dare, just try my best."
"In that case, I also donate money." Han Yuqing told the maid beside him, "Rui'er."
"Yes." Rui Er handed a heavy purse up.
The priest was flattered, holding his purse and repeatedly thanked him, "Thank you, Miss Han."
"Pingning Town is the root of the Han family. This is what it should be. The priests don't have to be polite. What are the next tests?" Han Yuqing asked.
Xia Qianqian also wanted to know what to test next, because she was no better than Han Yuqing than donation. But she has a strong nature and wants to compete with Han Yuqing.
After all, she has already paid a dozen silver dollars and can't choose to lose her money. If you choose, you can pay back five taels and reduce losses.
"This..." The priest didn't know what to answer for a while. In previous years, there was no literary test. This year, she heard that Miss Han was going to take part. Now there are two people who passed the exam.
Li Cui thought, even if Xia Qianqian is literate, she cannot be as talented as Miss Han, so she gloated and said, "Since it is the second choice, it is better to continue the competition. It's all girls, bibi singing and dancing!"
Xia Qianqian's whole person is not good. She can't dance.
Han Yuqing readily agreed: "But at the order of the priest."
"It's better than singing and dancing!" The priest also agreed.
Xia Qianqian felt bitter, and asked for an excuse: "Priest, I suddenly have a stomachache. Why don't you compare it tomorrow?"
After all, Xia Qianqian was also the one who had donated silver taels, and the priest agreed to make her too embarrassed.
Xia Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled: "Miss Han, which room do you live in?"
"I don't live here." Han Yuqing looked at Xia Qianqian curiously. The girls in the village saw her behaving very humble, only Xia Qianqian was bolder than she had imagined.
"Miss Han lives in Gu Mansion." The priest interrupted.
Xia Qianqian's heart froze for a moment: "Gu Mansion?"
"Gu's family is my aunt's house." Han Yuqing explained.
Xia Qianqian felt that she was chilled instantly. The old ancestor doesn't know her identity yet, she must have helped her cousin.
"Miss Xia, rest, I will come back tomorrow."
Han Yuqing left, and so did the priest. Xia Qianqian lowered his head in frustration, thinking about countermeasures. She is so-so while singing, but she can't dance. Gu Yanjing said that she had stiff limbs and danced like a toad.
"Why? Scared?" Li Cui asked strangely, standing on the stairs.
