My Entire Family’s Gone Haywire! Chapter 914

....
914 Didn’t you say that your family is poor?
Princess Xing Nan was convinced of her defeat, but there was still one more round, painting.
As only the degree of similarity was needed for a person’s portrait, Gu Xin chose to sketch.
It just so happened that the palace didn’t have the brush she needed, so the Emperor had the young eunuch go to her house to get it. She could also rest for a while.
The Emperor ordered the dishes to be served. This competition should wait until after the meal.
The Prince and Princess of Xing Nan were not in the mood to eat!
Prince Xing Nan said,”Royal sister, that little girl will definitely ask you for a horse later.” You didn’t even give me a fixed amount just now. If you ask for more, you’ll be beaten by father when you go back!”
Princess Xing Nan was furious,”am I going to lose?” Even if I lose, I’ll just get it back.”
Prince xingnan asked,’how do we get it back? You can still fight with the young lady? Even if you don’t find it embarrassing, I do! Even if the great Zhou agrees to you, you can find someone else to compete with you. If you win, you will win the great Zhou’s things, not the young lady’s.”
Princess Xing Nan replied,”I’m looking for her sister for a Kung Fu competition!” The one sitting next to her mother was obviously a martial arts practitioner. If they were to shirk responsibility, they would be embarrassed. If she loses, I can just ask her for her warhorse. They were a family! Besides, I might not lose. I can’t lose the warhorses. If I win, we’ll have silk, cloth, and tea! Since they’re asking for warhorses, let’s just use silk and tea leaves as a bet!”
Prince Xing Nan looked at Gu Hui and said,’the ladies of the great Zhou Dynasty have always been virtuous, and this one is probably virtuous too. He was quite good-looking, fair and clean, and probably knew some martial arts. He looked quite arrogant and probably thought that he was very powerful! Just now, the Empress used words to run us down. In a while, we’ll return the same words to her. Let’s not compete in terms of men, let’s compete in terms of girls.”
Princess Xing Nan felt that her brother was right.
Gu Hui, who was eating calmly, noticed the two brothers looking at her and raised her eyebrows.
After the meal, the Emperor and Empress Xue called for people to carry two tables to the middle of the hall.
After that, he let Gu Xin and Princess xingnan draw.
The judging panel of twenty people from both sides also went out.
Within two hours.
Both of them were drawing eunuch Fu who was beside the Emperor. Gu Xin only drew eunuch Fu’s facial features, so she used much less time than Princess Xing Nan.
Princess Xing Nan drew her entire body.
When they were done, the twenty people came in. Ten chose Princess Xing Nan and ten chose Gu Xin.
Everyone chose their own, but Gu Xin was faster than Princess Xing Nan, so she won.
Princess Xing Nan looked at Gu Xin’s painting for a long time. Alright, she was convinced of her loss.
Princess Xing Nan asked,’lady Gu, is this the new painting method of the great Zhou? I’ve never seen your paintbrush and your technique before.”
Your Highness, ” Gu Xin replied honestly, ” my mother and I came up with this together. It’s actually for convenience’s sake. In the past, our family was poor, so we had to buy a brush and ink for father to practice. Mother said that we girls don’t need to take the exam and it’s good to use this charcoal pencil to write.”
Princess Xing Nan was very impressed,”Madam Gu is really good at managing the family and teaching!” Lady Gu, why don’t we do this? we’ll bet on gold, silver, jewelry, Jade, and the like. This is what your family needs.”
As soon as she said this, the hall fell silent.
Cai Xiaolian was certain that the Emperor and Empress Xue were definitely holding back their laughter.
Before Gu Xin could say anything, Princess Jinghe said, ” “This Princess saw you yesterday at the courier station where you sold the washing and protection set. Here, it’s sold by the Gu family that you say lacks gold and silver jewelry. One set isn’t cheap!”
“Yueyue, didn’t you say your family is poor?” Princess Xing Nan asked.
