Listening to the more and more lively outside, Wu Bai said to the fence: "Let people remove the screen, let's also take a look at this scholar's masterpiece!" ”

To be honest, Wu Bai is really a little curious, and the remaining five uplink, this scholar surnamed Zhou can match a few pairs. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The ancient wood in front of the rocks and rocks is dry, and this wood should be used as firewood!"

Split the word couplet, this is a question to send points, relatively speaking, Wu Bai can't figure it out, why no one is interested in this one.

The last four are a little interesting, first of all, "the phoenix falls and the phoenix falls!" ”。 This is a palindromic couplet, a strange flower in the rhetoric of couplets. Couplets written in this form can be read either in forward or backwards, not only because their meaning remains the same, but also because they are quite interesting.

And then "smoke along the edge of the swallow smoke swallow eye!" ”。 The seven characters are homophonic, outlining a beautiful picture.

And then "Smoke lock pond willow!" The five elements are all possessed, gold, wood, water, fire and earth.

Finally, "Lonely and cold windows are empty and widowed!" ”。 In Wu Bai's view, academicity is not mentioned, and the artistic conception is unparalleled.

……

In the lobby of the Qixian Restaurant, the shopkeeper Sun specially left an empty table, and the scholar surnamed Zhou wrote with a pen. Every time a word is written, it is read aloud by those who are watching around and passed on to those who cannot see it.

After the restaurant maid removed the screen, Wu Bai and the three of them were also looking at the lobby.

I only heard someone read out loud: "The ancient wood in front of the mountain, rock, and rock is dry, and this wood should be used as firewood." The woman by the white water spring is good, and the girl is the most wonderful! ”

The surrounding scholars laughed for a while, and some people sneered: "Brother Zhou, do you still know the beauty of the girl?" It's not easy! ”

The scholar surnamed Zhou turned a deaf ear to the ridicule of others and continued to write

"The phoenix falls into the sycamore, and the phoenix lives in Songhai.

The lonely cold window is empty and widowed, and the handsome and beautiful couple is accompanied by a beautiful couple. ”

Three to one came out, and no one around them ridiculed them, and the rest of them all applauded. Shopkeeper Sun took out a hundred taels of silver and handed it to him.

A scholar who had just made a sarcastic remark suddenly saw Wu Bai in the private room on the second floor. With a roll of his eyes, he said loudly: "Wu Zizhan is here, don't let him comment!" ”

This scholar's words attracted everyone, and they all followed this scholar's gaze to Wu Bai. Being watched by so many people, Xiao Wunuo was a little frightened and quietly got down from the chair. Hiding behind Wu Bai, he clutched Wu Bai's sleeved robe.

The scholar surnamed Zhou, who got the silver and was about to leave, also looked at Wu Bai with some expectation in his eyes.

looked at the scholar surnamed Zhou, dressed in a washed white Confucian robe, with a hint of cowardice in his eyes. Wu Bai was silent for a moment, feeling the need to say something. Then said:

"Everyone, you love Taiwan, Zizhan is shallow in learning, if there is something inappropriate. I also hope that this Brother Zhou Haihan! ”

The scholar surnamed Zhou hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and Wu Bai continued:

"Brother Zhou's literary talents, Zizhan worships. But Zizhan thinks that the six arts of a gentleman are not just learning. When a husband stands in the world, he should be a little more masculine.

The woman by the white water spring is good, and the girl is the most wonderful. Eleven soldiers in the scarf tent, you need to use force to stop fighting! Does Brother Zhou think so? ”

The scholar surnamed Zhou thought for a moment, and the cowardice in his eyes disappeared and was replaced by perseverance. With a solemn face, he said to Wu Baibao: "Thank you Brother Zizhan for waking up, Zhou is very grateful!" ”

Looking at the changes in the scholar surnamed Zhou, Wu Bai had an inexplicable sense of achievement. smiled at him and said, "Brother Zhou is polite! ”

The scholar surnamed Zhou did not have a common name, and Wu Bai did not ask. When the scholar surnamed Zhou left, Wu Bai asked the screen of the small bar to move back to its original place, and no longer paid attention to the lobby of the restaurant.

After a while, when Shopkeeper Sun personally delivered the meal, he asked Wu Baidao: "City Lord, what are the three pairs of subordinates?" ”

Wu Bai said: "Just hang out as this scholar does!" ”

Shopkeeper Sun asked suspiciously, "But what do you do personally?" ”

Wu Bai shook his head and smiled, and said, "It's just a game, it's okay!" ”

In fact, in Wu Bai's view, the lonely cold window is empty and widowed, and it is a perfect match with the decaying pillow of the sycamore.

……

The southern district of Lanling City is a place where civilians live. After Zhou Zeng left the Qixian Restaurant, he hurried all the way here.

Zhou Zeng, whose name is Yi Nong, is a student of Lanling Academy. His father was a foot trader who died tragically in Zhao more than ten years ago. His mother raised him and his little sister with hard work.

At the beginning of spring, my mother was sick, and the family was poor and could not be treated in time, so that the root of the disease fell. A few days ago, Zhou had obtained a hundred taels of silver in the Qixian Restaurant. It's all spent on the mother.

It's May now, and in three months, the autumn township exam will begin. There was no money left at home, so in order not to delay the township test, Zhou Zeng thought hard for many days, and went to the Qixian Restaurant again to win a hundred taels of silver.

Hurriedly returning to the southern district, the thirteen-year-old little sister of the Zhou family was already waiting at the mouth of the alley. Seeing his brother returning, he immediately asked expectantly, "Big brother, have you won the reward?" ”

Zhou Zeng took out the money bag from his arms and shook it in front of his little sister's eyes. said: "Let's go, take you to buy your favorite pastry." ”

Speaking of which, the shopkeeper Sun is also careful. Knowing that it was inconvenient to carry a hundred taels of silver, he gave Zhou Zeng a hundred taels of silver tickets. I also gave a few taels of silver, which is called a pen.

When the little sister of the Zhou family heard this, she clapped her hands happily. But his footsteps did not move, and he said: "Big brother, I don't eat crisp cakes, this money can't be spent indiscriminately, I have to keep it for you to give you some township tests!" ”

When Zhou Zeng heard this, he felt relieved. After his mother fell ill, he was only 16 years old and took on the responsibility of running the family, so he really understood the greatness of his mother.

The little sister was so sensible, which made Zhou Zeng quite pleased, so she said: "It's okay, the crisp cake is not worth a few dollars, let's go buy some supplements for my mother!" ”

The brother and sister laughed and walked away. In front of Zhou's house not far from the alley, Zhou's mother had been standing for a long time. There was a door wall, and the brother and sister did not see their mother.

Hearing the conversation of a pair of children, Zhou's mother silently left tears and muttered to herself: "May the husband have a spirit in the sky and bless the children to be safe and ......."

The South District Market is not far away, and Zhou Zeng and his little sister bought things and returned home in less than half an hour.

After the meal, Zhou's mother found that her son had changed, a little more resolute and a little less cowardly than before.

After hesitating for a long time, he said: "Old man, I only found out today that my son is so heroic!" ”

Zhou Zeng smiled and said to his mother: "Mother, I met Wu Zizhan in Qixian Restaurant today. ”

Mother Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then said: "But that Wu Zizhan who is worried about the country and the people? ”

Through the evaluation of the head of the three princes of the current dynasty, it is "worried about the country and the people, Wu Zizhan". In this Lanling City, Wu Bai's current reputation can be described as a household name.

Zhou Zeng replied: "Yes, Brother Zizhan told me that the six arts of a gentleman are not only learning. When a husband stands in the world, he should have a bit of masculinity. I think it makes a lot of sense. ”

Zhou's mother smiled and said: "If you don't learn or not, an old woman doesn't understand, and a man should be masculine!" ”

When Zhou Zeng heard this, he understood what his mother meant, and said: "The child is dull, let the mother worry!" ”
