Looking at this little thing, not only is it standing on the chair, but it is also looking at me with pride, as if it is like, just leave everything to me.
This made Su Changan feel like pulling off this little guy's pants and giving him a beating.
When he saw the old scholar on the stage speaking, he, who had just learned the identity of the old scholar from Su Linhan, bowed and responded, "Yes."
The old scholar watched Su Chang'an salute, return the salute, and then asked, "I was talking to your father yesterday, and I heard you say 'Read ten thousand books, and write like a god' when you were advising your sister?"
Su Changan was stunned. He didn't expect the old teacher to ask him this question suddenly. So he thought for a moment and said, "Please forgive me for making fun of you. That day, I saw my sister being beaten by the teacher in the private school, but she still endured the pain and copied books. That's why I said this. I wanted my sister to study instead of copying books while enduring the pain."
The old man continued to ask: "What is 'broken'?"
Su Changan replied: "Read carefully."
The old master then asked, "What is intensive reading?"
Su Changan replied: "Enjoy, savor, and study deeply."
The old man, who had been expressionless all along, suddenly smiled: "Great kindness!"
The people around were listening to the questions and answers between Su Changan and the old master, and seeing that the old master actually laughed at the end, everyone looked at each other.
Thoughtful.
Originally, all the participants, regardless of their purpose, were talented and learned people.
Everyone should carefully savor the sentence "Read ten thousand books and write like a god", and then savor the question and answer just now.
Everyone looked at Su Changan with a little respect.
As for the possibility that Su Changan would be taught a lesson, he simply didn't think about it.
Le Zongjie, who was most eager for Su Changan to be scolded and humiliated, clenched his fists when he saw this scene. He knew that with the old man's smile, Su Changan would be fine, and he became even more angry when he saw such a sensation!
The old master looked at Changan and spoke again: "I toasted because the poetry meeting has begun. There are millions of people in the world, and everyone is different, with different thoughts, bodies, etc. Since you are allergic to wine and tea, you don't need to reply to me. The word etiquette is not to hurt others or injure others. It's just order."
After saying that, the old man raised his hand and motioned for Su Changan to go back to his seat.
Su Changan bowed to the old master again and then returned to his seat.
The old man also said to everyone: "Miss Su's words 'Reading ten thousand books will make you write like a god' and the question and answer between me and Miss Su, please remember to think carefully, it will be helpful for your study."
Everyone stood up and bowed: "We will follow your instructions, sir."
The old master nodded slightly and said, "I am not a long-winded or pretentious person, so I will not say more about the opening. The theme of this year's poetry competition is 'Night'. All students can show their talents. There is plenty of time for the poetry competition. Everyone must remember to think carefully. If the creation is completed, you can give it to the maid beside you."
The old man had just finished speaking.
The maids immediately came forward with trays and placed them on all the tables.
On the tray are naturally things like pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
"After writing the poem, it will be sent to the three gentlemen, and then it will be recited for everyone to appreciate. Finally, the winning poem will be selected, and the one who writes the poem will be the winner of tonight's Early Winter Poetry Festival." Su Linhan explained to Su Changan.
Su Changan nodded and put the matter aside for the time being.
His eyes are now on this little guy Su Zhaoxin.
Su Zhaoxin sat on the chair, looking at Su Changan with pride, blinking his eyes, with a look of "Praise me, praise me!"
Su Changan looked at the little thing and said, "Why don't you go stand over there?"
Su Zhaoxin was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at the place Su Changan mentioned. It was actually behind the table, behind the screen.
There weren't many people there, and it wasn't pitch black because of the lanterns, but why should I stand there!
So Su Zhaoxin wondered: "Why?"
Su Changan said directly: "I'm allergic to you."
Su Zhaoxin didn't react.
but.
Snapped! !
However, Su Wan'er couldn't bear it any longer, and she slapped her brother on the back of the head. Then, without saying a word, she pointed at the corner and glared at Su Zhaoxin.
Su Zhaoxin looked at his sister's hand and wanted to ask if it hurt, but when he saw Su Wan'er glaring at him, she pursed her lips, muttered something, and walked towards there.
But after only two steps, he turned back, seemed to want to say something but stopped, then turned around and walked away.
Su Wan'er glared at her brother and then looked at Su Chang'an.
Su Changan smiled and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Su Wan'er shook her head: "It doesn't hurt."
Su Changan smiled gently and rubbed Su Wan'er's hand gently. It was all red. She had not yet healed from being beaten with a ruler, so how could it not hurt?
Yan Ruyu leaned close to Su Changan's ear and whispered, "I have tasted all the food, it's okay, you can eat it. I have tasted the wine and tea, they are okay, the second young lady and the others can drink them, but you are allergic to them, so even if you can drink them, you can't drink them here. Ask for some water, I will try it later, you can drink it if it's not poisonous."
Su Changan turned around and looked at Yan Ruyu.
I didn't ask Yan Ruyu when she tasted it. After all, she was an eighth-rank master, so it was understandable that they didn't notice it.
but
Looking at Yan Ruyu, Su Changan frowned and wanted to say a few words, but when he looked at Su Linhan, Su Wan'er and others who had not gone to drink water or eat vegetables because of him, he sighed.
So he said, “Thank you.”
Then let Su Linhan and Su Wan'er eat.
Su Linhan and Su Wan'er were curious, but they didn't ask much. Besides, they weren't hungry, so even if they were asked to eat, they didn't actually plan to eat.
It's Su Changan's side.
He is really hungry!!
In order to prepare for the poetry reading, he had already eaten a full stomach before coming in the afternoon.
But I don’t know if it was because I was too tired from sitting in the carriage, or because I was too tired from sitting in the chair here, but all the food in my stomach was digested.
Plus, the dish smelled quite fragrant, and my stomach rumbled when I was asking and answering questions with the old man just now.
However, Su Changan thought that no one heard it, so he didn't take it seriously.
Now that Yan Ruyu has tasted it and found it to be poisonous, she won’t be polite!
Yan Ruyu sat aside and watched Su Changan start eating, and smiled helplessly.
She didn't know whether others heard it or not.
But she did hear Su Changan's stomach rumbling.
That's why she went against Su Changan's instructions yesterday and started testing the poison.
but.
Thinking of the fact that Su Changan seemed to be blaming her just now, Yan Ruyu felt helpless.
I couldn't help but think of the day before yesterday
Su Changan asked if he could try the poison.
She naturally said yes directly.
After all, her mission is to protect Su Changan.
Of course, we must also ensure that Su Changan will not be poisoned.
But then, Su Changan shook his head and said, "No, forget it. I can't let you test the poison. I'd better not eat or drink anything."
Yan Ruyu replied, "No problem, I can cure most poisons myself."
But Su Changan still shook his head and said, "No, we are the same person, how can I ask you to help me test poison? Your parents would be heartbroken if they knew their daughter was testing poison for others."
Whenever Yan Ruyu thought of these words these two days, she always felt warm in her heart.
……
The inner courtyard poetry meeting has begun.
The hall outside this restaurant is packed with people!
Even the people on the streets outside who couldn't come in to sit because they were short of money, there were still huge crowds of people.
"It's started! The poetry reading has begun, and everyone has started writing poetry." A restaurant waiter hurriedly ran out and shouted.
There was a lot of noise inside and outside the restaurant.
It’s finally started!
"Have there been any poems?" Someone looked at the restaurant waiter impatiently.
"Brother Li, why are you in such a hurry? It's just the beginning. We need to wait a little longer." The man's companion immediately spoke with a smile.
The man was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and bowed to the people around him.
Although there were smiles on people's faces, they were not mocking. After all, every year's Early Winter Poetry Festival and the Lantern Festival Poetry Festival would surely produce excellent works, which was something that the scholars like them who could not get in could not wait to see.
So, it's understandable.
The clerk took a breath and said, "However, there is a conversation between Master Yao and Miss Chang'an. Miss Chang'an seemed to have said to her sister at home, 'Read ten thousand books and write like a god.'"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone around looked at this guy who was obviously educated.
After thinking for a while, the waiter told the whole story of what happened between Master Yao and Su Changan.
After a little quiet.
The noise starts again!
"What a great man who has broken through ten thousand scrolls, what a great man who is like a god! Shopkeeper, another pot of wine!"
"Enjoy it, savor it, and study it. Not enough, not enough. Far from it."
"If you read like this, it will be very time-consuming and laborious, but if you don't read like this, you won't understand the meaning of it."
"So beautiful, so talented, a country girl? Ridiculous, but the world laughs!"
"If you can say this, I have underestimated Miss Chang'an. Everyone, I will treat you today!"
"A country girl can say such a wise thing? I don't know what those who spread the rumors were thinking."
"Brother Zhang, please tell me, who is prettier, the courtesan Liu Baishi or Miss Chang'an?"
