Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 644 - 643: White Plum Lamp (2)

Beside the White Plum Lamp, various other lanterns were either hanging or displayed, each one exquisite, showing the maker’s effort.

There were not many people gathered around, occasionally two or three would approach, pause for a moment, and then leave scratching their heads.

"Sister-in-law, cousin-in-law, let’s go!"

Luo Lingshu was about to lead the two forward when two slender figures arrived at the entrance of the restaurant ahead of them. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Miss, see, it’s the White Plum that Mr. Duan likes!"

The three focused their eyes and saw Yi Qianqian and her personal maid standing at the door, eyes sparkling as they looked at the White Plum Blossom Lamp.

"Tch~" Luo Lingshu curled her lip, "I thought it was someone else, but it’s her again, truly relentless."

"Isn’t that the cousin?" Lian remarked, "Should we go up and greet her?"

"Greet what?" Luo Lingshu rolled her eyes, "Come, let’s go take a look."

Shen Qinglan smiled faintly and followed Luo Lingshu as she strolled over.

"Miss, sorry, but the White Plum Blossom Lamp is not for sale!"

As the three arrived, they heard the waiter at the door looking troubled as he said, "That’s the rule set by our shopkeeper. Unless you can compose a poem about plum blossoms on the spot, you can’t take this lamp."

"What a ridiculous rule?" The maid angrily said, "Not even a hundred taels can get you this broken lamp?"

"It’s not a matter of money," the waiter said, "It’s the rule, set by our shopkeeper, please understand."

"Can’t we really make an exception?" Yi Qianqian asked with a pitiful expression.

The waiter, feeling compassionate, firmly shook his head despite the reluctance.

"Ha~" Luo Lingshu sneered, "I thought the cousin was truly as talented as the legends say, proficient in everything, but it seems that’s not the case."

Yi Qianqian and the maid turned around abruptly, feeling a bit embarrassed upon seeing the three behind them.

"How can the cousin say that?" the maid retorted, "Even if it were you, you might not be able to compose a poem on the spot!"

"Of course, I can’t!" Luo Lingshu said matter-of-factly, "It’s well-known throughout Bright Moon City that I have no knowledge, unlike the cousin whose reputation as a talent precedes her."

The little maid said, "Cousin, please don’t speak carelessly; those are just rumors spread by others, our young miss never admitted to them."

Luo Lingshu shrugged and said with a leisurely smile, "But the cousin never refuted them either!"

Yi Qianqian’s eyes gleamed as she looked at Shen Qinglan with a smile, "Rumor has it, Miss Shen is exceptionally intelligent, surely, composing a poem would not be difficult for her?"

Why should she bear the embarrassment alone? She didn’t believe Shen Qinglan could compose a poem on the spot.

Shen Qinglan slightly raised her eyes, her cold gaze directly meeting hers, and said with a sarcastic smile, "When did this rumor start, and why do I not know of it?"

Yi Qianqian internally laughed, thinking Shen Qinglan indeed couldn’t write it either, and said, "Mrs. Duan often praises you. I believe Miss Shen can certainly compose one on the spot."

The little maid scoffed disdainfully, "They clearly stated it must be an original new poem; any previously written by famous figures doesn’t count."

"A mere maid, what business do you have speaking when the masters are talking?" Luo Lingshu glared at the maid, "Speak one more word and I’ll tear your mouth apart, believe it or not!"

The little maid felt aggrieved at the words, "I trust Miss Shen, I meant no disrespect in my heart."
