Chapter 575: The Contest (3rd Update)
Shen Yue's eyes blinked twice, and then he thought of a fun one, and said, "In the past, everyone competed mostly in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs, and this time is no exception, but it is different from the past, everyone is grouped, male and female, but not all men, or all women, five or six people in each group, each has a good at, several groups compete together, and you can also guess lantern riddles, pairs, and flower ......." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
After Shen Yue finished speaking, Zhong Wenting clapped her hands and applauded, "This is a good idea, everyone used to fight alone, but this time everyone fought in a team." ā
Su Zixian said, "I'm afraid it's unfair." ā
After all, it is a team, and it is very likely that one team will crush the other teams, and without the suspense of victory or defeat, the fun of fighting will be lost.
Zhong Wenting looked at Shen Yue, what Su Zixian said was not impossible, Shen Yue smiled, "This is also easy to do, let those ladies and young masters of the family who are willing to participate write what they are best at into the lottery holder, everyone is only allowed to write one, and then draw lots to decide who is in a group with whom." ā
As soon as Shen Yue said it, Zhong Wenting knew it.
She had expected that there would be a lot of people from the Shen family today, and she was afraid that everyone would be bored, so she prepared a lot of riddle pairs for everyone to play with, and they were fully prepared for pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and everything.
After having a rough idea, she went down to order, first asked what everyone meant, after all, a few of them thought it was fun, and others might not think so, don't let her prepare, everyone doesn't play, it's too embarrassing, be careful not to make a mistake.
As a result, everyone was very interested and couldn't wait.
The little guy here helped the tables and chairs, and everyone over there put their names into the basket they were good at, and soon, it was ready.
The task of deciding who is in a group with whom is left to Shen Yue.
Several maids followed behind Shen Yue with trays, and Shen Yue grabbed them over and over again.
After that, those paper baskets were sent to Zhong Wenting, and she and Shen Langzhi read them out, reading them out in groups to determine who was in a group with whom.
Basically, there are men and women in each group.
After grouping, there are still people in the paper basket, but they can't make up a group.
Shen Yue said, "Each group sends someone to draw one, and whoever draws it will be their group." ā
The basic guarantee is that if everyone wants to participate, let them participate.
But whenever there is a competition, there will be a lottery, Zhong Wenting came over and discussed with Shen Yue, whether to set a lottery, so that everyone can play more energetically.
Shen Yue said with a smile, "There should be a color head, go to the treasury and pick up a few high-quality inkstones and calligraphy and paintings, as well as hostas and the like, seven for men and women, and the winning group will pick one for each person." ā
Zhong Wenting nodded, "That's just right, I'll pick it." ā
Shen Langzhi came over and said, "Since it is a competition, you need someone to be the referee, who will be the referee?" ā
Zhong Wenting smiled, "Do you still need to ask, there are so many noble ladies here today, go and tell the fourth aunt, how many noble ladies can be called." ā
Shen Langzhi said, "Originally, it was a temporary idea, and everyone was messing around, but in this way, it became a serious competition." ā
Shisu couldn't help but answer, "It's fun to have a serious competition." ā
Even the maid thought it was good, so Shen Langzhi said, "Then I'll let the maid tell the fourth aunt." ā
Soon, the fourth lady came over, followed by a bunch of noble ladies.
They were bored in the house, and when the fourth lady heard that the garden was competing, she became interested, and told them that the noble ladies thought such a competition was novel, and they came either with a son or a daughter, and they were also curious about who their sons and daughters were in the same group, and which group would win.
No, everyone followed.
The fourth lady smiled, "Which of you wants to be a referee?" ā
Mrs. Lin'anhou smiled, "Count me in." ā
Soon, there were six referees.
That's not all, the four masters over there also brought a bunch of people over, and those masters also had to be referees, no, the referees changed from six to eight, half of them......
Those young masters of the family who were going to participate in the competition and everyone felt pressure, wasn't everyone messing around, why did they all come to see it.
This is even more stressful than attending a banquet in the palace, after all, before a person, winning or losing will not delay others, but now everyone is grouped, winning and winning, and losing is a pit teammate.
Obviously I came to congratulate you, why did you participate in an interesting banquet by the way?
Zhong Wenting admired Shen Yue very much, she thought about how to make everyone have fun, from morning to evening, and also asked Zhong Yuting and Zhong Ruting to help, which added up to Shen Yue's casual words.
It's a pity that Prince Xuan's Mansion doesn't hold banquets, otherwise it would definitely be very interesting.
Because there are many referees, Shen Yue implements the scoring method of removing one of the highest scores and one of the lowest scores.
After the competition of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, there are pairs, guessing lantern riddles, etc., before Zhong Wenting was worried that the lantern riddles and pairs prepared were not sufficient, and she was not worried when she saw so many masters coming.
These adults are full of poetry and books, and making pairs is a piece of cake for them.
When you are ready, as soon as the gongs and drums are struck, the competition begins.
Lots are drawn to decide what to compare first.
This important task was handed over to Shen Yue again.
Fuqin.
After she had read the two words, the little maid sent the piano table over and placed it in the center.
"Who's coming first?" Shen Yue said with a smile.
After she finished speaking, no one spoke, and just as she said that she wanted to draw lots, a man raised his hand and said, "I'll come first." ā
After all, it's a man, and if you let the girl try it first, wouldn't it be a joke.
Anyway, it's all going to be a competition, so why not go up generously.
After the man strokes the piano, he is scored, and after removing the highest score and the lowest score, the small guy is scored.
After that, it was the turn of the other groups to compete on stage.
After stroking the qin, it is time to paint.
Then there is the composition of poetry.
In the dance competition, everyone's ladies are ordinary dances, and the men's dances are sword dances.
ā¦ā¦
In the garden, everyone was enthusiastic, and before you knew it, an hour had passed.
The fourth wife is a little anxious, it's time for a banquet, look at the posture, it's still early, aren't you hungry?
She didn't want to disturb people, so she went to ask Shen Yue what he meant.
Shen Yue didn't expect everyone to be so happy, so he said, "Let's wait for the competition to be over before the banquet, I'm afraid that everyone will be hungry, so I'll have more pastries." ā
Shen Yue gave her opinion, and the fourth wife asked Shen Jun again, and finally complied.
After the competition, it is a free competition, that is, the rush to answer the link, one point will be deducted for the wrong answer, and one point will be added for the correct answer.
In the previous competition, in order not to disturb everyone, it was very quiet.
At this time, it will be very lively.
The fight was fierce.
Right Xiang smiled, "This way of competition is really novel and interesting, who came up with it?" ā
The fourth old man smiled, "It was the princess who came up with it." ā
The right minister touched his beard and sighed, "The princess is exquisite, intelligent and filial, which is the blessing of the Shen family and the blessing of our Ning Dynasty." ā
