Chapter 584: A Woman Dressed as a Man
After the Jinguang Lake Poetry Conference, the prince's new literary style has been recognized by everyone, and what he took out before was the best in the Spring Festival couplets, of course, it is not easy to take the five money.
However, when Wang Xiang heard that he could get five times for making a pair of Spring Festival couplets, he secretly said that it was a pity, the book he gave to Lao Cheng had thousands of Spring Festival couplets, and he lost tens of thousands of times.
Of course, this is just a thought, if you really want to take out the "Spring Festival Couplets", it is impossible for the stall owner to come up with so much money, and Wang Xiang is not a person who is short of this money now, and he will not be reduced to selling Spring Festival couplets on the street for a living.
However, he is quite interested in the activities of the stall owner, and wants to see if anyone can make a classic Spring Festival couplet comparable to the "Spring Festival Couplets".
The price of Wuguan money is really not low, and everyone is also happy on the first day of the new year, and after a while, a young scholar tried to make a pair of Spring Festival couplets.
As soon as the work was finished, the people around cheered one after another, and the young scholars who made the Spring Festival couplets were quite proud when they heard the cheers.
After listening to this, Wang Xiang shook his head and smiled slightly, this young scholar is indeed talented, and he made two good poems in just a short period of time, but it is a pity that the poems are good poems, but not a good Spring Festival couplet.
The first thing is that the Spring Festival couplets are festive and auspicious, but the requirements for rhetoric and rhyme are not high, if the Spring Festival couplets posted at the homes of ordinary people are too profound, it is not good, popular and simple, festive and auspicious, this is the best Spring Festival couplets. The scholar obviously wrote the Spring Festival couplets according to the standard of poetry, the rhetoric was gorgeous, and the battle was also very neat, but Wang Xiang heard that these were just two verses describing the winter scene, and there was no sense of joy and auspiciousness in it.
Sure enough, the onlookers were watching the excitement, but the hawkers selling Spring Festival couplets were different, and when he heard it, he heard that the Spring Festival couplets made by the scholar did not meet the requirements, and immediately shook his head.
Seeing that the stall owner shook his head, the scholar was suddenly unhappy, everyone applauded, and he himself felt quite satisfied, what do you mean by shaking your head?
The stall owner saw the scholar's displeasure, and said with a wry smile: "It's not that this boy is bad, it's just that ......."
"Just what?" The young scholar snorted disdainfully, it is difficult for a hawker who sells Spring Festival couplets to compare with himself and see what he can say.
Although he didn't want to offend this young scholar, the peddler couldn't spend this unjust money, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "It's just...... It's just that I don't understand the Spring Festival couplets made by Childe. ”
What? Can't get it?
Everyone was stunned for a moment and burst out laughing, and the young scholar was also amused by the reason given by the stall owner.
You don't understand, so it's not good? You don't understand, so you don't want to pay? If you don't understand, I can explain it to you!
The crowd was excited, and the stall owner could only humbly listen to the young scholar explain what he meant by the two Spring Festival couplets.
Originally, I just didn't think I could understand it, so I didn't accept the Spring Festival couplets made by scholars, but after listening to his explanation, I understood the meaning, and I didn't want to accept it.
"How's it going, do you understand it now?" The scholar didn't notice the expression on the stall owner's face, and asked triumphantly.
The stall owner smiled bitterly: "Understood." ”
"It's good to understand, bring the money for Wuguan, today I also made these two poems out of inspiration, and I'm cheaper for you."
Seeing the scholar's outstretched right hand, the stall owner said secretly: Cheap you big-headed ghost, what I want is the Spring Festival couplets, the things you write can't be understood by ordinary people at all, besides, listen to your explanation, what you write is a snow scene at all, Guan Chun Lian, if you want such a poem, what am I looking for you, buy a book of poems There are many in it, where do you need five money.
Seeing that the stall owner had been slow to pay the money, the scholar suddenly became impatient, frowned and was about to speak, when a woman in the crowd couldn't help but speak: "Don't force others, your two poems are not the Spring Festival couplets he wants at all." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their heads to look at the woman who spoke, and Wang Xiang also looked at her curiously, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Standing in the crowd and speaking was a woman in men's clothes, although she was dressed in men's clothes, she couldn't hide her beauty at all, and the woman was followed by a cute little girl, who was younger than Xiao Lori, and when she heard the woman speak, the little girl hurriedly said: "Little ...... Master, let's go back. ”
The woman shook the folding fan in her hand and said lightly: "What are you going to do, we have just come out for a while." ”
"But...... But ...... "The little maid hasn't come out for a long time."
The scholar who made the Spring Festival couplets just now heard that there were still people who had doubts about the Spring Festival couplets he made, so he immediately turned his head and frowned: "This brother Tai said that the Spring Festival couplets I made are not the Spring Festival couplets he wants, so what kind of Spring Festival couplets are the Spring Festival couplets he wants." ”
"Yes, the poems written by this son are not bad, they are even better than the artistic conception of these Spring Festival couplets." The people around him also spoke out.
Wang Xiang sweated in his heart, did the ancients have face blindness? It's so obvious that a woman dressed as a man can't be seen, what else is it called...... Brother Tai.
Seeing that everyone was more anxious about their young lady's little girl's face, the woman didn't care at all, and leisurely shook the folding fan in her hand and said: "I didn't say that the poems made by this son are not good, I just said that the poems he made are not the Spring Festival couplets that this uncle wants, or that the ones he made are not Spring Festival couplets at all, they can only be regarded as two poems." ”
After listening to the woman's words, some people already understood a little, but the young scholar still didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he did, and asked: "Why do you say that I didn't make Spring Festival couplets?" ”
The woman asked unhurriedly: "Then may I ask this son, what is the Spring Festival couplet?" ”
The young scholar sneered and blurted out: "Isn't the Spring Festival couplets just ......?"
Seeing that he suddenly paused, the woman smiled and asked, "What is it?" ”
"Yes......" The young scholar was finally not calm, he only cared about arguing, he really didn't know what the Spring Festival couplets were, just regarded them as Spring Festival couplets and composed poems, and now it seems that this is not the case.
Sure enough, seeing that he couldn't come out of a reason, the woman smiled: "The Spring Festival couplets were created by the prince of Jiayuan Hou last year, used to replace the original peach charm, although the Spring Festival couplets also pay attention to the neatness of the battle, but this is not the most important, as for the rhetoric, there is no need to deliberately make the profound, the two poems you made ordinary people don't understand how to use them as Spring Festival couplets?" ”
Without waiting for the scholar to argue with the woman, she continued: "Besides, the Spring Festival couplets are used instead of peach charms on the occasion of the New Year, so you want to be happy and auspicious, the two poems you just wrote are completely just describing the snow scene, and they have nothing to do with the joy and auspiciousness. ”
