Volume 1 The Heart of a Young Man Chapter 41 The Poetry Meeting Begins
The courtyard was quiet and silent, except for a few birds flying high and not falling, as if they were afraid of the cute creatures on the ground.
Li Xiaopestle was in place, and he didn't know what to say for a while. These cute things in the courtyard are from Sichuan and Shu, but they are not, and he really can't say why he faces the question of the woman in front of him, so he can't just lie like this.
"Why is the girl in this courtyard?" Li Xiao touched his nose lightly, and secretly sighed that his ability to open the topic was really unbearable.
The woman smiled, didn't care about the young man in front of her and opened the topic, just gently stroked the cute thing in her arms that was "babbling", and lightly opened her red lips: "The slave family is ordered to take care of these noisy little guys here, but they are sons." It seems that he should have come to participate in the poetry meeting, why don't you chant poetry in front of you and run here blindly. The pickled place is not suitable for readers. ”
Li Xiao looked around, saw that there was no one on the left and right, found a stone bench and sat down at random, and then poured a cup of hot tea with residual warmth on his own, and drank it: "The prelude to the poetry meeting is complicated and boring, and it is not quiet here." I don't know what the organizer thinks, shouldn't poetry be quiet, it's so noisy, I really don't know if it's poetry or something else. ”
The woman covered her mouth and smiled, the young man in front of her was talking interestingly, without worry, but it was also a young man of this age, who could not be so taboo: "What the son said is that these literati like complicated forms, and the ink is very, and if you have that time, it is better to make a few masterpieces." Besides, these poems and texts can't be used for food, and they are used for Rausch. ”
The woman in front of him spoke very interestingly, in line with Li Xiao's taste, he has always disliked this kind of occasion, those well-dressed talents, one by one, always like ink, pay attention to these forms, have this time, have already made a few poems. Could this so-called formalism be to highlight the grandeur of the poetry meeting? Or is it to pave the way for the so-called "masterpieces" that follow?
In his opinion, the so-called poems should be like Li Taibai's casual hair, such as Du Shaoling's depression and frustration, which is like this, a group of talented people full of poetry and literature, for the so-called fame and reputation to gather together, the so-called poetry meeting, is extremely absurd.
Li Xiao put down the teacup, laughed, ignored the commotion in front of him, and chatted with the woman who sat down about the cute things in the courtyard. These creatures from Sichuan and Shu are actually like the descendants of later generations, they love to be coquettish, especially the one in the woman's arms, babbling, and their furry bodies can't help arching in.
A red sun in the sky slowly shifted its position, and the shadows on the ground shortened a little. The noise from the front yard faded away, and when you listened closely, it seemed like someone was reading something out loud, and it was not clear.
Back in the courtyard, Li Xiao was lying on the table, he should be tired of talking, plus he didn't sleep last night and didn't eat much this morning, so he was a little weak now. But the woman, smiling faintly, kept talking, as if she would not get tired. and the cute thing in his arms, still arching inward.
Touching his belly, which made a few noises, Li Xiao dragged his tired eyelids, thinking of the serious illness that had cooled last night, and the soft big bed at home in Suzhou.
Just as he was thinking about it, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the hospital.
"Young master, why are you still here, the poetry meeting is about to start." The little girl ran in in a panic, gasped and said to Li Xiao: "That slow-talking son has been looking for you for a long time." ”
Li Xiao, who was lying on his stomach, had no strength to figure out how the smaller girl found here, as for the son who spoke slowly, it should be Ma Gongzi who brought them in, this Ma Yanyi always spoke with a literati atmosphere, and his unhurried way of speaking made Chu Chu complain several times.
"Got it." Angrily replied, Li Xiao raised his head with great effort and smiled at the woman sitting opposite.
Chu Chu also looked over immediately, and for a moment, she was still gasping for breath and stood in a daze, looking at the woman intently, speechless. This woman is really good-looking, her eyebrows are like water, soft, comfortable, Rao is also a woman, she will be envious, and she is only envious, and she dare not be jealous. Because women give people the feeling that they are different from ordinary people.
The woman turned her head, saw the little girl, examined it carefully for a moment, then smiled, and thought to herself, this girl is really clean, there is no noise in her eyes, and there is a sense of innocence all over her body, and I don't know how the unpredictable young man on the other side has such a blank paper.
In the eyes of others, this is just a glance between two women of different ages, but only they know that there seems to be a wonderful connection between the two, or rather, some kind of same experience.
Li Xiao didn't notice the performance of the little girl and the woman, shook her head full of sleepiness, got up and arched her hand towards the woman, showing a helpless smile, and then pulled the little girl who stayed in place and left quickly.
Only the woman was left, looking at the cute thing in her arms, stroking it repeatedly, until the two disappeared completely, and said for some reason: "You, you have to be so innocent." ”
The cute thing in his arms seemed to understand, babbling and rubbing.
……
Back to the front, at the right time, the poetry meeting had just begun, and all the talented people raised their eyes to look at Ma Yanyi, who was talking endlessly about the opening remarks, and no one noticed Li Xiao, who came back from the backyard quietly.
sneaked into the pavilion of Miss Lu Jia, like the others, the curtain in front was half-hidden, so that the people in the pavilion could see the talents present.
Sitting directly next to Chen Ziye, who was stealing pastries, Li Xiao touched Chen Caizi maliciously, so frightened that the latter knocked down a wine glass next to him, causing Miss Lu, who was sitting upright, to look back with a frown.
Miss Lu's face has not been good-looking since Li Xiao came in, and this time she turned around with anger, Lu Yunlu knew her sister's temperament, and panicked to signal Chen and Li to settle down, don't provoke Sister A, otherwise you will have to go around without eating.
Li Xiao smiled apologetically, feeling a little guilty in her heart, Miss Lu Jia's kindness, regardless of taking Lu Yunlu to play a few days ago, so that the three people who had no seats could have a place to stay, but who knew that he was wandering around the toilet for so long, and he came back restlessly, which was inappropriate. An Fen sitting, eating the pastries handed over by Chu Chu from time to time, sweet and crispy, it is the best quality.
Ma Yanyi in the central pavilion was still talking loudly about the opening remarks, what was it, Li Xiao didn't hear it clearly, probably what kind of wind and sunshine it was...... Colleagues show their poetic talents...... Words like dancing and flying, shining, etc.
He was not interested in these formal words, but the young man who read the words did not arrange seats for the three of them at first. In fact, Li Xiao didn't feel much, anyway, he wasn't interested in the poetry club, so it was a big deal to turn around and leave, but just now the little girl said that Ma Yanyi had found her, saying that she had already prepared a position, and it was still an independent pavilion, and there was also a talented man from Suzhou, who was said to be a doctor.
Regarding what Ma Yanyi said, no one knows whether it has been prepared or temporarily arranged, as for the person from Suzhou, Li Xiao can't think of who it is, the small place in Suzhou, it seems that there is no talent, and in the small city, Li Xiao only knows the teacher who can't pass the exam, but the gentleman is old and won't go so far to come to participate.
is also a talent, it will not be a woman, it can be considered a woman, and it is not as beautiful as Miss Lu's family.
Li Xiao drank a glass of sake and moistened his dry throat. Ma Yanyi's speech is finally over, such high-minded talk, and in his previous life, he was still tired of listening to those so-called experts in the square, just a few words back and forth, such a few meanings, I don't know why they are so tireless.
Bored, he turned his head and looked around, and the talents in several places were all looking down and thinking, or writing, it should be to write poetry, don't look over, rubbed Chen Ziye, and asked, "Brother Chen, what is the situation now." ”
Li Xiao embarrassedly asked Chen Ziye, who was thinking with his head down, and the current situation was like a student who was distracted and didn't take notes, at a loss.
Before Chen Ziye could speak, he heard Lu Yunlu, who was sitting dignified in front of him, slowly speak: "Li Gongzi came to participate in the poetry meeting, why didn't he even listen to what Ma Gongzi said, don't you look down on me?" Or is it because after gaining some talent and fame, he disdains to discuss poetry with us? ”
Hearing Lu Yunlu's words, Li Xiao sighed in his heart that Miss Lu, who looked weak, spoke so aggressively, and really told Lu Yunlu that whoever marries her in the future will be unlucky.
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Ziye hurriedly grabbed Li Xiao and said softly: "Lu Hou's daughter, we can't afford to mess with it, Brother Li can just say a few words, just a girl, for the sake of her giving us a place to stay, don't pay attention to it." ”
Also, what's wrong with saying a few words, the so-called good men don't fight with women, and reasoning with women is never possible, besides, I really don't look down on those talented people sitting in front of me, if these people are not for power, how can they get up early one after another, just to get a good seat.
"Ma Gongzi just took the bamboo in this small bamboo forest as the theme and asked everyone to compose a poem." Chen Ziye continued, but at this moment, he frowned, sighed, it seems that he is indeed old and can no longer write poetry.
"Bamboo?"
"Brother Li can have results?"
Li Xiao shook his head, naturally there was no, although there were not a few poems written about bamboo in the Tang and Song dynasties, but he didn't want to make one. One is that he doesn't want to be famous and cause a commotion, and the other is that because he is sleepy, it is not that he was sleepy last night, but he listened to the sound of talented people muttering poetry, and he felt as if he had returned to the time when he was in high school.
Sleepy-eyed, he leaned on Chu Chu, lying lazily Ge You, not caring about the strange eyes of the maids for a long time.
Squinting, he vaguely saw that not far away, busy subordinates were holding paper rolls in their hands, coming and going in the talents and pavilions, and a few people came out of the bamboo forest in the distance, handed over a few paper rolls, and then left quickly.
This poetry meeting is really lively.
This was the last sentence in Li Xiao's consciousness. He then lost consciousness and fell asleep in a daze.
