She didn't expect that after her rebirth, she would inadvertently change her original trajectory.
With the nourishment of the spirit spring, her skin became smoother and smoother. Although it was not as white as snow, it was indeed much better than when she first came to the capital. At least, her skin was no longer as rough as before. The spots on her cheeks that had been exposed to the sun had also disappeared. Her eyes were brighter and darker than before, and her chest had expanded a little. Her clothes were two inches shorter than before. It seemed that she had grown a lot taller.
Fortunately, new clothes were made, otherwise, it would be shameful for her to wear clothes that did not fit her.
"Mister, the music of the six arts does not necessarily have to be tested on the zither. Other instruments are also fine, right?" Ye Zhen didn't want to display her zither skills during the music test. Whether a person played the zither well or not, it was easy to tell from the basic skills.
She used to be best at playing the zither. Needless to say, her basic skills were excellent. The teachers in the Women's College were shrewd and could easily see that it was not her first time playing the zither.
"Then what do you want to test?" Mister Dan frowned and asked. He was not worried about Lu Yaoyao's other talents, but he was worried about the music.
Everything else could be crammed, but the zither skills were accumulated over a long period of time. How could they be learned in a short period of time?
"The drum." Ye Zhen remembered a talent she had never shown in front of others. She could play the drum. No one knew about this except for her maids and father, but they were all gone.
Mister Dan's eyes lit up. "There are several kinds of drums. Which one do you know?"
"What do you think of the drum dance, Mister?" Beating the drum in the way of dancing on the drum was completely in line with the requirements of the music test, and it would not let people see the basic skills of her zither skills.
In ancient times, the drum was revered as a heavenly artifact. It could not only be used to cheer the army, but it could also be used in sacrificial ceremonies. The drum had the artistic conception of boosting momentum and uplifting people. However, because women were not strong enough, few women would choose such an instrument to learn.
If it was an inspiration … then it was different.
Mister Dan found that this Third Miss Lu was much smarter than he thought. She might be comparable to his disciple. Unfortunately, her surname was Lu, otherwise, he would like to accept another student.
"I've never seen anyone dance on the drum. Just this drum alone is hard to find." Mister Dan said.
Ye Zhen said, "I know of a place that can make this drum. It will take about ten days, and I will just take the exam."
Mister Dan nodded. "Since you've already decided, let's do it this way. When the time comes, it won't be a problem if you can pass three out of the six arts."
In the book of etiquette, music and archery, Ye Zhen's archery was certainly no problem. There was no need to read the book, and she could barely pass the exam. Therefore, it was not important whether she could get a pass in other aspects. Anyway, as long as she was sent to the Women's College, she would teach her other aspects in the future until she had the ability to enter the palace.
Ye Zhen followed Mister Dan's calculations for a long time. Arithmetic was one of her weaker subjects, but it was no problem for her to cope with the exam.
"Let's call it a day. Old Madam Lu's people have come to the door a few times. I think your grandmother is thinking of you." Mister Dan said faintly. He kind of understood why Old Madam Lu liked this third young lady. If not … he had some affection for Lu Yaoyao.
Ye Zhen's heart flashed with annoyance. She didn't like to go to Old Madam Lu's place, not because she hated the old lady, but because she felt resistant and unwilling to accept the old lady's love. Moreover, she didn't want to meet Lu Lingzhi there.
"Mister Dan, I'll go to the upper room first." Although Ye Zhen didn't like to go to Old Madam Lu, it was necessary to please the old lady in order to survive in the Lu family.
At this time, it was already time for dinner. It was estimated that the old lady wanted to invite her over for dinner.
The inner room of the upper room was already filled with laughter. As soon as Ye Zhen walked outside the door, she heard the voices of Lu Er and Lu Si. It seemed that there were other people besides them.
"The third young lady is here." The maid by the door opened the curtain for Ye Zhen and bowed with a smile.
Ye Zhen returned a shallow smile, which stunned the maid. She felt that the third young lady seemed to have changed a little. The wild girl who had just entered the house had become so beautiful.
"Grandmother, I'm here." When Ye Zhen stepped into the room, she had already put on a charming and naughty look, and her face was even raised with a bright smile.
The people in the room were quiet when Ye Zhen came in. They only felt that the little girl's smile was so beautiful that it made everyone else lose their luster.
Since when did that tanned and skinny wild girl become so beautiful and beautiful?
Old Madam Lu smiled and beckoned Ye Zhen to come to her side. "Come here, you must be very tired after a day's homework."
Ye Zhen also looked at the people in the room. In addition to Lu Er and Lu Si, there were two girls she had never seen before, about fourteen or fifteen years old. They were sitting on the right side of Old Madam Lu. They were also looking at her with surprise and suspicion in their eyes.
With Ye Zhen's transformation day by day, she was no longer the dark and thin little girl she used to be. She would gradually become the same as before, a stunning beauty.
"Grandmother, I'm not tired. In order to enter the college in the future, it's nothing to be tired at this time." Ye Zhen sat down obediently and took the old madam's arm affectionately. "As long as you leave me more delicious food, my whole body will be full of strength."
Old Madam Lu was amused and laughed, "I knew you were a little foodie."
"It's a blessing to be able to eat." Ye Zhen said solemnly.
"Aiyo, our Yaoyao is truly blessed." Old Madam Lu hugged her and smiled, then pointed to the two girls who had been looking at Ye Zhen. "These are your two cousins who came to the capital to play for a few days."
Ye Zhen stood up and saluted, "Yao Yao greets the two cousins. It's great to have two such lovely little girls to accompany grandmother. I'm just afraid that grandmother will not love Yao Yao anymore when the time comes."
Old Madam Lu smiled and nodded her head, "I know you are talkative."
The two girls also stood up and returned the salute. "Hello, Yao Yao sister. I've long heard of the third sister. Today, I finally get to meet you. It's really better to meet you in person than to hear of your reputation."
This was not the first time they came to the Lu family. They had heard that their third sister grew up in the border town before. They thought that she must be ugly. How could they know that she was such a radiant girl?
