Volume 3 The Spring and Autumn of the Pencil Chapter 321 The Conditions for Giving It for Nothing
Cao Yi heard Diaosuo's question, and instantly became energetic, "I've been ready for a long time, what did you say to bet on?" ”
I had been worried that Diaosuo would make a difficult bet with him, but now that Diaosuo took the initiative to bring it up, then he didn't have to worry about it, and he was done calmly facing the gamble.
"Ahem, you are mainly because I have a very good personal relationship with your teacher Lu Gong, so I don't embarrass you, basically I deliberately gave you a condition, which can be regarded as fulfilling your master's request to let me take care of you in your master's letter." Diao Suo said that he looked like a righteous cloud, and people who were not familiar with him thought that he had done something good about sacrificing himself for others.
"Really?" Cao Yi looked at Diaosuo with a distrustful expression, this old man refreshed Cao Yi's perception of him again and again, in the face of an elder like Zhou Botong's old naughty boy, he already had serious doubts about Diaosuo, and he was afraid that this old naughty boy would suddenly come out of his own attention.
"Of course, it's more real than real gold!" Diao Su looked at Cao Yi obliquely, and replied to Cao Yi's words before he replied.
"......" Cao Yi felt that he still underestimated the fishing.
"Okay, Elder Zu, what is our bet or competition?"
"It's actually very simple, it's really very simple, especially for you, really I'm just taking better care of you, that's why I'm comparing this with you." Diaosu looks like his kind elders.
"Elder Zu, you are comparing yourself to me...... Who is young? Cao Yi blinked his puzzled eyes and asked with a serious face.
"......" Diao Suo looked at Cao Yi with a hurt expression.
Even Yu Youwei covered her mouth and snickered at this time, and the old naughty boy encountered a little impropriety, this pair of combinations was really funny.
"Okay, okay, Cao Yi, boy, you're so good, let's start directly." Fisher said indignantly.
"It can have started a long time ago, there is actually no need to be polite between us, let alone go through the process, just come directly." Cao Yi didn't hear Diaosuo's evaluation of himself, and nodded sympathetic to the second half of his sentence.
"Okay, in fact, I bet with you on five couplets, I will make five upper couplets, and you will match five lower couplets." There was a smug smile on his face.
Cao Yihu glanced at Diaosuo suspiciously, right to the pair, at first glance it seems to be relatively simple, but when did Diaosuo have so much confidence in me, he actually felt that I could win.
"Okay, Elder Zu, do you want you to make an uplink, and I will come to a downlink, or do you want to make five uplinks at a time, and I will give five downlinks together?"
"Five together, four of them are the four Shanglian you gave to Chu Mingxuan, and the other one is the 'Smoke Lock Pond Willow' you gave out in Yangzhou......" Yu Suo said with a sly smile on his face.
"......" Cao Yi stopped the action of wanting to transcribe the upper couplet, after all, if it is a new couplet that has not been paired before, especially five together, it must be transcribed in half a couplet. The back of the province is not neat because the words are missing. But now Diaosu has taken out the first half of his own alliance to make Chu Mingxuan right, and the other is that when Jiang Ning first participated in the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting, the eternal team.
"Ancestor, you can't make the next couplet of these five couplets yourself, so you use this bet to let me provide the answer, right?" Cao Yi looked at Diaosu with puzzled eyes, and couldn't help but ask at this time.
"What! Can't you? Hinde told me that the old man had been thinking about it for a long time, and felt that each one was absolute, and I did have a deep personal relationship with your teacher, so when he wrote to me before, he had already told me about the 'smoke lock pond willow', and I also thought about it for a long time, and I couldn't think of the next link, and even had several gray hairs for this, and even drank wine is not fragrant, so I want you to answer it yourself to see if there is a lower link that can be corrected. ”
Cao Yi stared intently at the white hair on Yusuo's head, and then looked at the empty wine jug of three or four pots of Qinglian wine on his seat, and his right eye twitched uncontrollably, which was really a good sentence "There are several hairs white, and even drinking wine is not fragrant"! Wouldn't it be even more shocking for you to say that you have several black hairs?
But after thinking about it, his brows furrowed slightly.
Looking at Cao Yi's expression, Diaosu asked in surprise, "What?" You can't answer either! These five are really eternal absolutes, and no one is right? ”
Cao Yi smiled at Yusuo: "It's not that these five can't be right, but in my original plan, these five Shanglian have other arrangements......"
"What plan? Listen to it, it's hard to say that my old man can still help you. Diao said disapprovingly.
Then Cao Yi said that when he planned to open in Zuixianlou, he would post the five uplink, and whoever answered any of the five first would get a free one-month supply of wine and food in Zuixianlou.
"You mean...... No matter which one is uplinked, as long as someone is the first to answer, that person can eat and drink for free in Zuixian Building for a month? Fisherman asked in surprise.
"Yes, yes."
"Including Taibai Drunk and Qinglian Wine?" Fisher asked, a look of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
"Well, there are up to four people at a time, and it must be eaten and drunk in the restaurant, and it can't be taken out, and if you take it out, you need to pay extra." Cao Yi replied very affirmatively, and then asked rhetorically: "Ancestor, do you want to think about it yourself for a while longer or let me tell you about the next link now?" ”
"But if you want to know about the next link, everyone present must not tell the next link." Cao Yi explained.
"You all go out, wait in the courtyard next door, I'll call you if there's something." Fei Haomiao waved his hand and asked the servants and maids who were originally serving in this courtyard to leave first, he didn't dare to guarantee that none of these people would leak the next link.
Diaosu looked at all the people at the scene, and said: "It's better for you to say the next link now, otherwise I really want to lose my hair at this association." And don't worry, none of you here will tell anyone else about this link. ”
Cao Yi looked around at everyone, and everyone nodded at Cao Yi, signaling that it would not be leaked out.
"Okay, Ancestor starts, you say an uplink, I'll go down." Cao Yi nodded at Diaosuo, and then prompted again: "I said five lower links, but you have to promise me a condition, don't forget!" ”
"Don't worry, my ancestor Wenhan has always said the same, and said that this condition was given to you for nothing, and it was given to you for nothing!" Diao said solemnly.
"......" Cao Yi said secretly in his heart: "This is for nothing!" ”
"Hehe, for others, it may be difficult, but for Cao Yi boy, isn't it quite a free gift!" A smug smile appeared on Fisherman's face. Lu Gong himself asked him to take good care of Cao Yi, and now he can get a good reputation, and he has been trained again by his apprentice, and the few eternals who have troubled him for a long time will definitely know what the next link is like now, he is naturally happy, if it weren't for the wrong occasion now, he would be eager to sing and dance with wine.
"That's not what I said, I wasn't born to be able to come out of these five uplink, nor was it easy to know the five downlink, life in the world, is the most unfair, but also the fairest, your efforts, your hard work, may not be able to cash in immediately, but every word practiced, every book read, in fact, is effective, I was just a gentleman three years ago, and I was called a fool two years ago, but I didn't give up, I don't care what others think of me, I locked myself in the room, I spent more than a year, I forgot to sleep and eat, so I locked myself in the study, and I read all the subsets of scriptures and histories......" Cao Yi looked deep, like a chicken soup wholesaler.
"And then? What exactly are you trying to express? It's so incomprehensible how young people talk nowadays, could it be that our age gap is too big, so there is an age gap now? Fisherman muttered to himself.
...... "Are you an ancient person or a modern person, how can you say that you are more than six people who have traveled through modern times, Cao Yi said in his heart.
