Chapter 123: Poetry Contest
"Brocade girl! Zhao Gongzi! Zhao Xuanyang walked in with two middle-aged men.
The middle-aged man walking in front of him was dressed as a scholar, and he was like Zhao Xuanyang, with a big belly, kind eyebrows, and a smile like Maitreya Buddha. Another middle-aged man was older, dressed in a gray scholar's robe, with a thin and slender figure and a wise glint in his eyes.
Zhao Xuanyang turned his head to the former and said, "Dad, this is the little girl named Li Jinshu I told you." Miss Jinshu, this is my father, whose name is Qishan. β
Jin Shu hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Dean Zhao, the little girl is polite." β
"Little girls don't have to be polite, you can hold such a talent competition, which is also beneficial to the students. The old man appreciates it very much! Zhao Qishan smiled kindly, without a little arrogance at all.
This is Zhao Xuanyang who began to introduce another person: "This is Master Song of our academy, whose name is Jingxian. β
"I've seen Master Song." The brocade book is the way.
Master Song twisted his beard and said with a smile: "The old man came uninvited, don't be surprised by the little girl." β
Jin Shu hurriedly said: "Don't dare." Dean Zhao and Master Song came, which made the four o'clock residence shine. Two, please come in! She personally accompanied Dean Huo and Liu Fuzi in, all the way to the VIP room on the third floor.
Xiao Er quickly came in to pour tea, and at the same time set up melons and fruit snacks. After Zhao Xuanyang sat down with the two heavyweights, Jin Shu came down from upstairs. At this time, the entire Four Seasons House was already full.
It's finally time for the game. At the signal of the brocade book, all the guests gradually quieted down.
She chose a position where everyone could see and stood still, and then said loudly: "Everyone, the little woman Li Jinshu is one of the bosses of the Four Seasons House. Here, on behalf of all the people at Four Seasons, I would like to welcome you all and hope that you will have a good meal. The poetry contest will start soon, and before that, I would like to introduce you to two distinguished guests, Dean Zhao and Master Song of Zhiyuan Academy. β
Dean Zhao and Master Song also came out of the room and leaned on the railing to salute everyone. Jin Shu continued: "These two are the judges of the poetry competition, so you don't have to worry about any unfairness in the competition. β
Everyone nodded after hearing Jinshu's words. These two are well-known figures in Ren'an County, especially Dean Zhao, who used to be an official in the court, so they can be trusted in terms of character and prestige.
At this time, Jin Shu signaled to the shopkeeper Lin Yicai to continue. Lin Yicai walked to the middle of the lobby, with a smile on his face, and said loudly: "Lin Yicai, the shopkeeper at the fourth time in the next day, thank you for your support." The poetry contest is now officially underwayβ"
Shopkeeper Lin continued: "The theme of our first round of competition is 'food', whether it is a variety of dishes or melons, fruits, snacks or wine, pen, ink, paper and inkstone have been prepared for everyone, please write down your poems, a stick of incense for a limited time!" β
Zhao Qishan smiled slightly, looked at Jinshu thoughtfully, turned his head and said to Zhao Xuanyang: "Xuanyang, this little girl is very interesting. "In order to promote the restaurant, I have spared no effort.
The time of a stick of incense slowly passed, and all the students stopped writing. Everyone read out their poems one by one in order.
In the end, after the judgment of Dean Zhao and Song Fuzi, a total of 20 students entered the second round of competition. In the second round, ten people were eliminated with the theme of "Four Seasons", and finally after the third round of competition, the first, second and third places were finally decided.
After the competition, Jinshu asked people to frame the excellent poems, and took out the brand-new silver ingots prepared in advance, and asked Dean Zhao and Song Fuzi to serve as the guests of honor, and distributed the prize money to the students who won the competition. Students who have not achieved the ranking are not disappointed, after all, they can still enjoy free food and drink.
