Qin Baichuan was about to speak, when Sister Lan suddenly leaned down and whispered in his ear: "Sir, if you really have the ability, you will completely surrender this Chu Xuan, and your benefits will be indispensable in the future." ”

"How?" Qin Baichuan was slightly stunned.

"Aren't you short of silver? He's a fat sheep. ”

"Rich second generation?" Qin Baichuan's eyes lit up, it seems that it is quite good to accept a rich second generation as a junior brother!

Sister Lan didn't know what the rich second generation meant, but seeing Qin Baichuan's excited expression, a wicked smile welled up on her face: "Speaking of silver, you will come to the spirit?" Hmph, if you want me to sue you, then it's good to behave. I still have a lot of things to ask you, and when everyone is gone, let's have a long talk. ”

"Ten points for three watches, one time for the Spring Festival?" Under Sister Lan's bent down, Qin Baichuan could not only clearly see the snow-white slender neck, but even the bottomless ravine on his chest, and he was a little uneasy for a while.

Sister Lan's pretty face was flushed, this person was really hateful, she obviously had amazing talent, but she was a flower in her mouth. However, Sister Lan was born in a Qinglou and has long been comfortable with these meat words. Hearing this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" Three thousand taels of silver! ”

"Too expensive, cheaper ......"

"Get out!" Sister Lan couldn't cry or laugh, the first time I heard that sleeping women still have bargains, where did this guy come from?

"What do you mean, storyteller?" Seeing that Qin Baichuan was whispering to Yun Lan in a low voice as if no one was beside him, Chu Xuan interrupted them loudly, but he took the initiative to remove the word "stinky" when calling Qin Baichuan.

"Since you have brought it up, I will do what you want." With Sister Lan's instructions, Qin Baichuan's words were less contemptuous: "It's just that, Master Chu, the origin of my couplet is not my personal experience, but just a story I once heard." ”

"No problem!" Chu Xuan was embarrassed in his heart, in order to be in the limelight, he Chu Xuan told the story he heard as his own experience, but the other party was honest with him, in this regard, people's character was superior.

"Then you can hear clearly." Qin Baichuan had a lot of jokes in his stomach, he pondered for a while, and said: "This story is about a pair of talented and beautiful women, there was a dignified and affectionate poor student in the first dynasty, after his parents passed away, he built a thatched hut in front of the grave, studied hard during the day, and kept the spirit of his parents at night, and his filial piety spread in the township, and was praised by the people. ”

"After the expiration of the three-year period of filial piety, remembering the ancient precept that there are three unfilial pieties and no queen, this poor student wants to find a wife and start a family. Perhaps it was destined in the dark, but by chance, a poor student met a woman with a good figure by the lake, and he was shocked at first sight. The two talked for a whole afternoon, and they had the feeling of being friends at the end of the world and hating each other. ”

Qin Baichuan's story is very plain and old-fashioned, but in this era, the story of talented and beautiful women is a topic that all ordinary people never get tired of hearing.

"That night, they went home separately, and the talented man of the poor family was full of the woman's voice and smile, and after opening his eyes until dawn, the talented man asked someone to inquire about the origin of the woman, and wanted to conclude a good relationship with the woman." Just when everyone thought that a talented and beautiful woman would love a marriage match and achieve a good story, Qin Baichuan's words changed, and the story made waves: "I thought that woman was a young lady from a big family, but the final result was beyond the expectations of the talented man, she turned out to be a famous local Oiran and a prostitute in the Qinglou." ”

"Hey." Qin Baichuan revealed the identity of the woman, and Sister Lan may have thought of her own background, and she couldn't help but empathize and sigh heavily.

"Young Master Chu, if you are a poor student, how should you choose?" When telling the story, Qin Baichuan didn't forget to interact with Chu Xuan.

"Me?" Qin Baichuan's story is much more moving than his, seeing his serious expression, Chu Xuan thought for a while and said: "Although that student is poor, after all, he is from an innocent background, if he marries a prostitute, even if he is not drowned by the saliva of others, this disgraceful experience is enough to affect his career in the future." ”

"That's right." Qin Baichuan nodded and continued: "On the one hand, there is the woman he believes is the love of this life, and on the other hand, there are secular rituals, glory and wealth, and the talented man of the poor family is in a great entanglement. He had also tried to forget jì, but the woman's every move, a smile seemed to be engraved into his bone marrow, and it didn't linger at all. After several devastations, the talented man of the poor family made a decision and wrote the poem "If you have to become a star, why die, only envy the mandarin duck and not the immortal". ”

"Well written!" Qin Baichuan is a storyteller, his ability to tell stories and render the atmosphere is extraordinary, when he said the poems written by the talented man, the peddler's pawn couldn't help but clench his fists and applaud, but Su Muqing and other talented people frowned slightly.

In this era, men are inferior to women, and which man with status is not three wives and four concubines? In their eyes, women are just playthings for poetry, so why should they ruin their reputation for a lowly prostitute and discredit their future careers?

"If you have to become more than your eyes, why die, only envy the mandarin duck and not the immortal...... I'm afraid there is no such infatuated man in the world. The corners of Sister Lan's eyes were slightly moist, and she thought about it from her shoes, if a man was willing to treat her like this, I am afraid that she would die for him, and she would be willing.

"Why don't you ......die if you have to make a comparison" The rest of the people were immersed in the story, but Chu Xuan kept in mind the competition between the two. When he heard this, his whole body was like falling into an ice cave, and a poem that the storyteller said casually was a classic that he couldn't think of, but he couldn't think of it, but he couldn't do anything about it, but he wanted to provoke others.

"Brother Qin, what happened later, are they together?" The maid Xiaohuan asked, and the others also fell silent instantly.

"Later, the talented man of the poor family was under tremendous pressure, and took out the only ten taels of silver and asked the matchmaker to propose marriage." Qin Baichuan continued: "Some people say that the talented man is a toad who wants to eat swan meat, and some people say that he has a hot brain and will definitely ruin his future future, but he can't care about it. ”

In fact, the Qinglou Oiran has also been obsessed with the talented man since she saw it, and even had the idea of following him from Congliang, but the scientific examination is imminent, and she doesn't want her appearance to affect the life trajectory of the talented man. When the matchmaker came to propose marriage with all the belongings of the talented man, the ten taels of silver, the Oiran almost agreed to him regardless of a qiē, but in the end, she controlled her lust and decided to hand over all the qiē to the sky. ”

When the matchmaker was leaving, the Oiran handed her a note and a heavy hundred taels of silver, and told the matchmaker that if the talented man of the poor family could match the upper link on the note, it would be the destined marriage of God, and she would immediately redeem herself from the Qinglou, and go away with the talented man incognito; If he can't do it, then the two of them have no chance, let him take the one hundred taels of silver to Beijing to catch the exam. ”

"The matchmaker told the words of the Oiran to the poor man in full, and the talented man opened the note, but saw a line of beautiful small characters written on it: '氷 (Tong Bing) cold wine, a little water, two points of water, three points of water'."

"Brother Qin, what's down there, what's down there? Did the poor man come out of this couplet? Did he get together with that Oiran? Just as he was talking about the key point, Qin Baichuan suddenly shut up again, and the maids anxiously urged.

"What happened?" Seeing Qin Baichuan's gaze fall on him, Chu Xuan, who was fascinated by it, asked uncomfortably.

"Young Master Chu is distracted." Qin Baichuan said lightly: "The story I just said is the background of the origin of the couplet, the upper link is: cold wine, a little water, two points of water, three points of water, if you can match the lower couplet, our competition will be considered flat." ”

"Huh?" Only then did Chu Xuan remember that there was still this stubble.

"Ahhhh Aren't you very capable? Don't waste time, hurry up and make the next couplet, we are still waiting to hear the story! ”

"That's right, aren't these stories of the wind and snow that Mr. Qin said exactly what you scholars are good at? Why don't you speak, right? ”

"If you're sorry, hurry up and apprentice, maybe Mr. Qin is in a good mood and will pass you a few tricks!"

There was a commotion downstairs, and Chu Xuan's mind was also buzzing, no matter how stupid he was, he completely understood at this time, in terms of talent and ability, he and Qin Baichuan were not at the same level at all.

"This coupling is actually not too difficult, you can think about it for a while." Sister Lan mentioned earlier, Qin Baichuan did not force each other.

Chu Xuan shook his head shyly, in fact, the essence of the readers in this era is not bad, but the self-feeling of being poisoned by this society is too good, at this time, Qin Baichuan shows a far more knowledge and insight than him, which is by no means comparable to ordinary storytellers, and it is a tolerant and generous attitude, which reverses Chu Xuan's perception of him.

On the side, Su Muqing hung high and didn't mean to help, Chu Xuan thought about it for a while, and then he had a plan, instead of facing Qin Baichuan and suffering humiliation, it was better to put down his body, maybe he could win a good reputation of "not shamefully asking".

"Mr. Qin's intentions are lofty, and Chu Xuan has no good plan." Respectfully clasping his fists and saluting Qin Baichuan, Chu Xuan's face was a little feverish, but he still said seriously: "It's ridiculous that Chu Xuan is the frog at the bottom of the well, please don't make it difficult, please don't make it difficult, just finish this story, and Chu Xuan will bow to the teacher again." ”

"Hey, this kid is okay, dare to be a darer!" Since ancient times, the people have been the most tolerant, and seeing Chu Xuan put on an attitude of humbly seeking advice, instead of being gossiped, some people applauded him.

"Young Master Chu, what Mr. Qin just said to let you apprentice is just a joke, you don't have to take it to heart." Chu Xuan has already made it clear that he wants to admit defeat, and Sister Lan is not the one who beats the water dogs: "You have also seen that Mr. Qin is full of knowledge and talents, and he will never be under any talent in Jiangling, when we finish listening to Mr. Qin's story, if you are willing, you will just have a relationship with Mr. Qin's peers." ”

Chu Xuan sighed and was speechless.

"Since I'm not right, then I'll continue." Qin Baichuan didn't mean to embarrass Chu Xuan, sorted out his thoughts, and continued: "After entrusting the couplet and silver to the matchmaker, the Oiran waited for three months in a row, and there was no news from that talented man. Oiran only chose to take the silver to Beijing to catch the exam, and for a while he was ashamed and annoyed, anxious and angry, and finally spent all his savings to redeem himself from the Qinglou and fled away. ”
