Chapter 17: Mentoring Talented Women (1)
"Today it is rare for the talented women of Ningbo and Hangzhou to get together, in addition to enjoying the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, how can we be without poetry and songs, in addition to the scenery of the West Lake today, it is particularly charming, we will compose poems from the scenery of the West Lake Su Causeway today, what do you think?"
After waiting for Xia Ziang and Rong Tianyuan to keep up with the team, Min Yan proposed with a smile.
"Okay, well, I think it's very good, but when this West Lake Su Causeway is finished, I don't know where we will go next?" As soon as Min Yan's proposal came out, someone immediately chimed in.
But no, there are so many young ladies here, as long as they show a little, maybe they can get the beauty to rely on, if you can hug the beauty, wouldn't life be perfect? A great blessing?!
"Hehe, since you have come to Hangzhou, the West Lake Su Causeway is a must-go, and there is the first temple in the south of the Yangtze River, Lingyin Temple. If you come here, don't add oil and burn incense, and ask for a few good sticks, it's really a pity. What do you think? Hearing where the group was going after the West Lake Su Causeway was gone, Zeng Yuting also proposed.
This Jiaxing is separated from Hangzhou, not very far, it is about two hundred miles apart, half a day's journey by carriage, the slowest one day's journey can be reached.
But even for such a short distance, talented women in Jiaxing rarely come to Hangzhou, and generally do not go to this Lingyin Temple.
This Zeng Yuting is one, she has been to Hangzhou, but generally for half a year, once a year, Lingyin Temple has been there, not enough is two or three years ago.
In ancient society, especially in this era, women generally rarely went out, and generally stayed in that one acre and three points of land, so even when they died of old age, they never went out of the place where they lived since childhood.
It's not like modern times at all, even if you don't want to go, the helplessness revealed in it forces you to go.
"Are you going to Lingyin Temple?" This Zeng Yuting's proposal seems to have aroused the intention of the group, and they also want to go to Lingyin Temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha, petition, accumulate virtue, and see if they can have a little luck this year.
However, among the group, everyone was very interested in going to Lingyin Temple, but Rong Tianyuan was an exception, and his interest was average, after all, he didn't have any interest in burning incense and worshipping Buddha, and he didn't believe it at all, which seemed a little out of place with this group of people.
He was born in the army, so he naturally sneered at this god, Buddha and ghost. If you really burn incense and worship the Buddha to have good luck, then what hard-working people are needed in this world.
Although he was not very interested, he didn't say anything, he just needed to leave these people today, and there was basically nothing for him to do here.
Although everyone wants to go, they still look at Xia Wanyi, Xia Yuxuan and Xia Ziang, these three people have the highest status here, so they naturally want to see if these three people are going.
But even if the three sisters and brothers of the Xia family don't want to go, they have to go, after all, so many people have to go, they say they don't go, because of their identity, others can't say anything, but it is inevitable that they won't offend people.
So I saw Xia Wanyi nod slightly and said, "Yes, I haven't been there for a few months, so I'll go today." Xia Wanyi spoke alone, representing the opinions of Xia Yuxuan and Xia Ziang.
decided where to go next, and the group began to chant poems, and from time to time there were quite good verses, and everyone couldn't help but applaud, and the group was so unhappy.
"Hehe, Miss Su Wen Yuan Yuan is talented, proficient in poetry, and has extraordinary attainments in poetry, why don't we ask Miss Yuan to make a poem, what do you think?" When the people were rising, Min Yan suggested with a smile.
After Min Yan's voice fell, Liu Yang patted the folding fan in his hand and said with a very approving look: "This is good, we also want to see it very much, I don't know if Miss Yuan can?" ”
Although this Liu Yang really wants to see it, when he is saying this, he is also asking Yuan Yushi if he is willing, after all, they are all based on their personal wishes, and they will not force others to make a poem.
When the words of these two people fell, the rest of the people looked at Yuan Yushi with expectant eyes, wanting to see if she agreed or not.
This Min Yan's sudden proposal, Yuan Yushi, who was with Zeng Yuting, Xia Wanyi, Xia Yuxuan, and the daughters, was suddenly taken aback, and glanced at Min Yan with a slightly red cheek, she really didn't expect that there would be such a play.
Especially when she heard that Liu Yang was actually clamoring on the side, and the people around her were all looking at herself, all looking expectant, she was a little difficult to refuse, so she had to reluctantly nod and said softly:
"In that case, then I'll write a poem, but I don't know how good it can be, so if the poem is not good at that time, I hope you can help guide me."
Although this Yuan Yushi was caught off guard by this sudden incident, the etiquette that should be there and the gentleness that should be there are not lost at all, this is worthy of everyone's children, and a slight demeanor can reflect her cultivation demeanor.
"Okay, this Miss Yuan can just write poems, since it is to discuss poetry and songs, as long as there is something wrong, we will help Miss Yuan correct it." One of the men looked down at the crowd and said, "You say yes." ”
When everyone heard this, they all nodded one after another, indicating that they were all the same as the meaning of this man's words, and we would help guide them when the time came, and I don't know if some people understood the meaning of Yuan Yu's poems, or if they didn't understand it.
The meaning of Yuan Yu's poems is as literal as the meaning, but his words are normal polite words, so if you have a little emotional intelligence, you can hear some of them.
Rong Tianyuan stopped in his ears the whole time of the conversation between these people, but he didn't show anything, after all, these things had nothing to do with him.
However, when he heard what the man said, he glanced at him slightly, but his eyes were very strange, as if he was looking at a fool. He wanted to complain and ask: Are you a straight man? Or do you have low emotional intelligence?
Although I wanted to ask like this, I still didn't ask, I just smiled faintly, and looked at the Yuanyu poem, wanting to see what kind of poem the talented woman in Jiaxing could make, what it was.
Yuan Yushi nodded slightly to everyone, then walked slightly to the fence of Yusu Causeway, looked at the lake, and looked at the slightly thin and hazy fog at this time, one hand slightly supported his chin, and the whole person fell into deep thought.
When everyone saw this Yuanyu poem like this, they didn't make a sound, and looked at Yuanyu poem silently, quietly waiting for this Yuanyu poem to make a poem.
About half a pillar of incense passed, Yuan Yushi looked at the West Lake and opened his mouth to sing:
"Light yarn smoke willow warbler, incense scattered flowers one by one, West Lake even the sky Sugong embankment, a willow and a peach."
