The people gathered in front of the village government were all waiting to leave, and when they saw the two families carrying a table out, they were not very interested.

Lao De saw it and said, "It's finally out." ”

The two housekeepers brought the table up, and the monkey asked, "Which one is Lao De?" ”

Lao De replied: "I am Lao De." ”

The monkey pony placed the table in front of Lao De, and the monkey said, "You put the table yourself, and I will have to carry the chair later." ”

The monkey and the pony went to carry the chair, and the old man said, "Put the table on it." ”

Lao De's daughter-in-law looked at Lao De and didn't want to listen to him. Said: "Go and put it yourself." ”

Lao De looked at his daughter-in-law and said, "I have a knee injury, it's not good to stretch my legs?" ”

Lao De's daughter-in-law glared at Lao De, and let Lao De's arm go: "It's a thing!" ”

Lao De's daughter-in-law reluctantly put a table for Lao De, and came back to help Lao De's arm without a good face.

Soon, three people appeared in the yatang one after another, two families and one soldier. The two family members carried a chair, and the soldiers in front of the yamen held pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. In front of the old man, he put the chair away, and put the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table. Lao De asked, "Where is the village master?" ”

The former soldier replied: "The village master is in the courtyard of the yamen." "The village lord was still kneeling in front of the door where he lived in the courtyard, and it was not easy for this soldier to tell the matter.

Lao De replied: "I don't know when the village master will come out?" ”

The soldier replied: "You can wait a while." After speaking, the soldiers turned around and left.

The faces of the two family members were still wine-colored, and the two of them had already carried the tables and chairs, followed the soldiers in front of the ya, entered the courtyard, and returned to the small room. The monkey wanted to go to Xiaojie, and said, "The urine bag is panicking, I'll go to the thatched house." ”

The pony urine bag was also panicked, and said, "I'm also panicking, let's go together." ”

The monkey said, "Let's run over quickly, don't let the village master call us over." The two of them still had wine on their faces, and the monkey didn't want the village master to know.

Pony said, "Let's go, don't let the village master know that we're drinking." ”

The two of them got out of the small room and ran along the side room to the thatched house.

At this time, the former soldier was talking to the village owner, and saw the two running in front of the wing room on the south side, I don't know what the two of them were doing? The village owner thought that the two of them still had to take the tables and chairs, so he didn't think much about it, and asked the Yaqian soldiers: "Didn't you say that the tables, chairs, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones have all been taken, why did the two of them go again?" ”

Ya Qianbing also thought that the two of them went to get tables and chairs again, and he said: "Do they think that the tables and chairs are not enough?" ”

The village owner said: "I have a table with Lao De? ”

Ya Qianbing said: "Could it be that the two of them don't have enough chairs?" ”

The two couldn't figure it out, and the village owner said, "Let him take it." After speaking, the village lord asked: "I secretly went to the old Derby poem?" ”

Seeing the village lord kneeling, the soldiers said, "Village master, the tables, chairs, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones have all been brought to the front of the village office." ”

The village lord looked at the door and hesitated for a moment, but he did not hear any movement in the house, and he stood up cautiously.

"Let's go." The village lord turned around and whispered.

The village lord followed the soldiers out of the village, and the soldiers stood up and said, "The village master! The village lord snorted and came to the yamen.

Lao De and the others gathered to see the excitement, and when they saw the village owner coming out, they all said, "It's finally out." ”

The village master went to Lao De, hugged his fist and said, "Wait a long time." ”

Lao De saw that the village lord's knees were gray, and asked: "Village master, have you ever knelt on the ground, I see that your knees are gray?" ”

It was inconvenient for the village owner to tell the shameful thing, and lied: "No, I accidentally fell to my knees." Both feet stumbled on the stone together. ”

Lao De said: "Oh, it turned out that I stumbled? ”

The village lord replied: "Yes, I stumbled." After speaking, the village lord touched his nose and asked, "When is the poem?" ”

Lao De straightened his chest and replied: "No matter when, my Lao De will accompany the village master." ”

The village owner said: "In this case, let's have a cup of tea first and be quiet." Think about how to compare poetry? ”

Lao De replied: "It's up to the village owner." ”

The village lord looked at the chair and said, "Sit." ”

The two of them sat down on chairs one after another, and the chairs and tables were all brushed with dark red oil. The village lord said to the soldier, "Go and get two pots of tea." ”

Ya Qianbing replied: "Yes, the village master." ”

After a while, the village soldiers brought two pots of tea and two teacups with a tea tray.

The soldiers put the teapots and cups on the table, and only poured tea for the village lord. The village owner saw that the soldiers in front of the Ya were not in the family, and the soldiers in front of the Ya were not doing this work, so he said to Lao De: "Old De, you can do it yourself." ”

Lao De was not angry, he grabbed the teapot and poured the teacup, and said with a smile: "I will taste the tea of the village master." ”

Lao De took a sip and said, "This tea is a medium-grade tea, not bad." ”

At this time, Lao De's daughter-in-law said to Lao De: "Lao De, you are here first, and I will go and drag the car home." ”

Lao De said: "You drag the car home, look at my group of students, I don't know when the poem with the village master will be over, when my group of students are out of school, you come back." ”

Lao De's daughter-in-law pushed Lao De and said, "I don't even care about students compared to poetry." ”

Lao De said: "You go back first, and wait for me to compare poems with the village owner." ”

The old daughter-in-law said: "I don't even care about the students." With that, Lao De's daughter-in-law went to Conde and dragged the car.

Seeing his daughter-in-law dragging the car away, Lao De took a few sips of tea and said, "How can this poem be compared?" ”

Although Lao De has some knowledge, he has not compared poetry with others, and it can be said that the poetry is 'the first time that the big girl gets on the sedan chair'.

Not to mention the village owner, his knowledge is not as good as that of the old man, and for the poem, it is also 'a virgin marrying a bride - the first time'.

The village lord thought for a moment and said, "A five-character poem or a seven-character poem, let's both make one, see who does it well, and let everyone judge." How? ”

At this time, the crowd gathered: "Five words are five-character quatrains, and seven-character quatrains are seven-character quatrains." ”

When the village owner and Lao De heard this, they looked over and saw that it was a man with a long face and a small mouth talking. The village owner asked, "What, you know poetry?" ”

The long-faced and small-mouthed man replied: "I've read dozens of Tang poems, but I don't know poetry." ”

"Dozens?" When the village owner heard this, he felt that this person was a master of poetry.

"Dozens?" When Lao De heard this, he was worried that this person was more educated than himself.

The village owner, Lao De, looked at the long-faced and small-mouthed man, and they were all worried.

Lao De asked: "I don't know who Mr. is?" ”

The long-faced and small-mouthed man replied: "I'm watching the excitement, what is my name, please forgive me for not telling me." ”

The village owner asked, "Do you just watch the excitement?" ”

The long-faced man replied: "Look at the fun." ”

The village owner was relieved when he heard this, and asked, "Don't you compare poems with us?" ”

The long-faced and small-mouthed man replied: "I just watch a lively scene, how can I compare poetry with the two." ”

Lao De stretched out his hand to the village owner and said, "He doesn't have to ask when he sees the lively village owner, let's compare poetry." ”

The village owner responded: "Okay, you and I are more than poetry." ”

Lao De stretched out five fingers again and asked, "Let's compare five quatrains?" ”

The village owner felt that the five-word poem should be good, and he said: "Okay, let's compare the five-word quatrain." ”

Lao De slapped the table and said, "Just five quatrains." ”

There is only one inkstone, and there are five or six pens, and the village owner first grinds it and says: "How do you compare these five-character quatrains, do you and I make a poem at random, or do we both make a poem with one thing?" ”

Lao De asked: "What does it mean to make a poem with one thing?" ”

The village owner replied: "Let's say that you and I can compose a poem with one of the blue sky, a house, and a tree. Got it? ”

Lao De replied: "Understood." ”
