Chapter 180: Do You Want to See Her Make a Fool of Yourself?
The maids handed out white paper to each table. Even the poor students standing behind him also have one. Everyone quieted down and meditated, hoping to come up with a good sentence that would shock the four seats. Especially those poor students, is more active efforts, because the annual poetry meeting is a good opportunity for these poor students to get ahead, as long as their poems can attract everyone's appreciation, attract the attention of those masters, you will have the opportunity to enter the best institutions in the sky to study, as we all know, once you can enter the best institutions, the scientific examination is expected to be high school, and the future will be a lot smoother.
The poor students are to attract the attention of the masters, and the children of the official family are completely hoping to be in the limelight in front of everyone, and it is better to be favored by the beauties because of this! And the women just want to show their talents, hoping to win a good reputation, which is a great help to their relatives.
Time is the work of a stick of incense. By the time the incense runs out, most people have already made a poem.
After Ah Xing got the blank paper, she didn't start writing for a long time. Although she can't compose poetry, she likes poetry and remembers a lot of famous sentences. She can silently utter more than a dozen poems about the "moon" casually. However, she took into account the poems she remembered. All of them are the essence of thousands of years of culture left over from the world in her previous life, and any song will definitely cause a sensation to everyone. Not to mention that it is a little strange for her to have such poetic attainments as a folk girl, what worries her the most is that she has become a very eye-catching figure in the capital because of her running a theater, which has brought her a lot of benefits, but also brought her more trouble. If these poems cause a sensation again, it is really difficult to predict whether it will bring her a blessing or a curse.
This kind of limelight is not out of the limelight.
Ah Xing rolled up the blank paper and decided not to participate in this proposition poem, anyway, she is just a folk girl, and there is nothing strange that a folk girl can't compose poetry!
The Chen sisters and Yun Duo naturally don't feel strange when they see that Ah Xing didn't write poems, among the three of them, the Chen sisters have practiced martial arts since childhood, but they know a few words, and the words that Yun Duo knows are still taught by Ah Xing later, let alone compose poems, they learn from A Xing's appearance, and roll up the white paper confidently.
In the front seat, Bultai and Shen Yuanfeng did not put pen to paper, and after thinking about it, Zhang Zhao wrote four lines of poetry.
Chen Ying was very unhappy that Shen Yuanfeng took Zhang Qingqiu's poem, and when he saw that he didn't start writing, he sarcastically said: "Shen Yuanfeng, I saw you just now like you admired other people's poems, I thought you were very good, it turns out that you are the same as us, you don't know anything!" "She has a great relationship with Shen Yuanfeng. Therefore, although he was already a third-grade official at this time, there was still no difference between him and Shen Yuanfeng in the past in her eyes.
Chen Jing gently tugged at her sister's sleeve under the table, telling her not to make trouble on such an occasion. Chen Ying pouted.
Shen Yuanfeng turned his head and saw that Ah Xing still had an indifferent expression, as if he didn't care about what happened just now, he was angry in his heart, so he said: "Although I can't compose poems, I still have the ability to appreciate them, Miss Qingqiu's poems are like her people, fresh and noble, very rare!" These words were almost said in a kind of angry mood. You don't care about me, and I don't have to care about you, there are many women in the world who are worthy of my care.
As soon as these words came out, the Chen sisters and Yun Duo both turned slightly white. Even their mood was so uncomfortable, Ah Xing's mood at this time can be imagined, the three of them couldn't help but look at Ah Xing's face, but saw that she still had a faint expression. But it was this expression that made their hearts hurt even more, Chen Jing held Ah Xing's hand, and found that her hand was cold and cold, Chen Jing was distressed, and whispered to Chen Ying: "Chen Ying." Say no more. β
Chen Ying glanced at Shen Yuanfeng and nodded lightly.
Burtai smiled lightly and said, "Lord Shen seems to be very familiar with Miss Zhang Qingqiu. Heroes save the United States, it will be a good story! β
Shen Yuanfeng raised his eyes and looked directly at him, as if he was smiling, "I've heard a lot about the prince's good stories. The voice was very cold.
Bultai listened to Shen Yuanfeng's words, and glanced at Ah Xing with a smile, the gentle look in his eyes made Shen Yuanfeng's heart tighten suddenly, and he didn't have the courage to look back at Ah Xing's expression.
Burtai smiled: "The speed of rumors in your country really surprised Xiao Wang. The tone did not deny the rumors, and it became a kind of acquiescence in the ears of the prejudiced Shen Yuanfeng, who stared at him, unable to hide the coldness in his eyes at all. Although there was a faint smile on the corner of Bultai's mouth, he did not let his eyes go in the slightest.
Until Zhang Zhao said: "Look, everyone, Zhuang Yuanlang has sent the finished poem to the stage!" The two of them moved their eyes to the forefront.
At the front desk, many people have taken the poems to show in front of everyone, among which the poems belonging to the champion Lang are the most exciting, which won the most enthusiastic applause from everyone, and the poems of some other people are also very good. There are also some women who are shy to take the poems up for everyone to enjoy, although the level of poetry is far less than that of Zhang Qingqiu, but for a woman, it is good to be able to compose a neat poem. The women were appreciated by everyone, and some men were also remembered by them, and maybe they would make a good relationship because of this.
Ah Xing just saw that Zhang Zhao had already written a poem, but she didn't see him take it, so she asked: "Why doesn't Master Zhang take his masterpiece up for everyone to enjoy?" β
Zhang Zhao folded the paper, stuffed it into his sleeve, and said embarrassedly: "Everyone's poems are so good, don't take my clumsy work and embarrass people." It's better to take it home and enjoy it yourself! β
Ah Xing smiled: "Master Zhang is too modest!" β
Not far away, a maid bent down and whispered something in Miss Lu's ear, and a smile appeared on Miss Lu's face. The round-faced woman sitting next to her, Miss Xu asked, "What's wrong?"
Miss Lu looked at Ah Xing not far away and whispered to Miss Xu: "I deliberately asked the maid to pay attention, and sure enough, as I expected, this Li Xing only has a pile of grass left in her stomach except for the ability to seduce men." Just now the maid told me that she didn't write anything! β
Another Miss Wang covered her mouth and smiled, sarcastically: "Maybe people don't know how to write at all!" β
Miss Xu looked at Li Xing, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Since this is the case, we will act according to the plan!" β
Miss Lu nodded, stood up, walked to Zhang Qingqiu's side at the front desk, and whispered in her ear. Zhang Qingqiu nodded, and then said to everyone with a smile: "Miss Lu saw that many people were embarrassed to take out their poems, so in order not to bury the good poems, she proposed that everyone make a game together. β
Many people saw that the poems displayed on the stage were very exquisite, and some people who sighed that they were inferior were embarrassed to talk about poems and send them to the stage like Zhang Zhao. The poetry meeting was a little cold for a while. So when everyone heard that there was a game to play, they all expressed their support.
The ladies and ladies of Miss Lu's gang cooperated at this time and asked loudly what the game was.
Zhang Qingqiu said with a smile: "As for what game it is, let Miss Lu explain it to everyone!" β
More than 100 pairs of eyes in the audience looked at Miss Lu in unison, and Miss Lu was very excited to show her face in front of so many talented people. A melon seed blushed, she looked at everyone and said with a smile: "Actually, my game is very simple, which is to pass the flower ball." As she spoke, a maid brought a flower drum, and another maid handed a small ball covered with red tassels and bells to Miss Lu. Miss Lu shook the ball, and the bell made a Lingling sound, which was very pleasant.
"Later, my maid will beat the flower drum, and at the same time, everyone will pass the flower ball in turn at the bottom, and when the drum stops, whoever has the flower ball in his hand will show his poems in front of everyone."
Miss Lu paused, and Miss Xu in the audience immediately asked cooperatively, "What if I don't want to take out my poems?" β
Miss Lu smiled: "Anything that has no poems is taken out." You have to accept everyone's small punishment! As for what the punishment is, Miss Ben won't reveal it now, and everyone will know later! So don't hide your poems, and if you haven't written them yet, you should hurry up and write them. I believe that those who can come to the poetry club are people with a certain amount of talent, and they will never be unable to write even a few simple poems! β
The ladies in the audience spoke out in agreement, since the women were so interested, how could the men be so ungraceful to object? And although some people are embarrassed to put their poems on the stage, but they are a little unwilling to see their poems buried in it, this game gives them a chance, if the flower ball really falls into their hands, they are also forced to show their poems, even if they don't write well, the loss of face is not big, but what if it is well received by everyone? Isn't it a long face!
So everyone happily accepted the game.
Miss Lu saw that the plan was half successful, and she couldn't help but look at Ah Xing proudly, but saw that Ah Xing's eyes were resting on her body, as if she had been looking at herself for a long time. Miss Lu raised her eyebrows at Ah Xing, imagining that Ah Xing would be ugly in front of everyone later, and she was feeling happy in her heart, but she saw that the other party suddenly smiled lightly at herself, and the smile was infinitely strange, as if she had seen through something. The smile on the corner of Miss Lu's mouth froze, and she withdrew her gaze a little weakly, then got off the stage and returned to her seat.
Since Ah Xing received the invitation from this group of noble girls, she knew that they were asking themselves to come to the poetry club so aggressively, and it was by no means as simple as letting themselves play, so when Miss Lu came on stage to say this game, she felt that she was only afraid that her move was aimed at herself. She didn't want to plagiarize the poems of her previous life to get through this, but she didn't want to make a fool of herself in public, so the only way was to keep the ball in her hands. This is not difficult for her now.
After Miss Lu finished her seat, she gestured to the maid holding the flower drum on the stage. The maid nodded and began to beat the flower drum. "Knock knock", a heavy and rapid drum sounded, at the same time. Flower balls jingle from one hand to another.
In order to tease the women around them, some aristocratic children deliberately held flower balls in their hands for a while, and then suddenly passed them to the girls around them in the interval of the drums, so frightened that the girls screamed again and again, and hurriedly threw them to the next one, which made everyone laugh, and the girls were ashamed and red, although their mouths were full of disgusting words, but their eyes were shining, and there was no trace of anger.
The poetry will have the most lively and joyful atmosphere since its beginning.
The drumming stopped suddenly, and the flower balls were still circling in the first row, falling into the hands of a general's son. Others coaxed him to show off his masterpieces, and Miss Lu also smiled and shouted: "If you don't take it out, you will be punished!" Punish you for learning to bark! β
The men all coaxed him to learn how to bark, and the women covered their mouths with handkerchiefs and laughed.
The man naturally didn't want to be so embarrassed to learn how to bark a dog, so he proudly showed his poems, obviously a person who didn't usually read any books, and the poems were not neatly written, but everyone respected him as the general's son, and they didn't make much fun of him.
The drum sounded again, this time in the hands of a woman who also blushed and revealed her poem. And the next time it fell into the hands of a second-class official, he was a famous gentleman in Beijing, and he didn't learn or know, so he naturally couldn't compose poetry. Miss Lu won't be too embarrassed for him, but letting him flip in the front court is a punishment.
This is all planned by the nobles, if they make Ah Xing ugly as soon as they come up, it will make people feel that it is aimed at her, so they decided to let the flower ball fall into the hands of others first, and then it will not make people feel that it is deliberately targeted.
The flower drum sounded again, and this time, the flower ball had already passed to the second row, and it was getting closer and closer to Ah Xing.
The flower ball fell on Yun Duo's hand, and Yun Duo thought it was very funny, and passed it to Chen Ying with a smile, and Chen Ying passed it to Chen Jing, who threw the ball at Ah Xing......
Ah Xing knew that the moment the ball fell into her hand, it was when the drum stopped, she stared at the flower ball and was fully prepared.
Not far away, a group of noble ladies also looked at A-Xing with wide eyes, with an expression of expectation and excitement.
The maid on the stage stared at Ah Xing's hand, just waiting for the ball to stop beating the drum as soon as it reached her hand, which was something that her young lady had told her a thousand times.
The flower ball jingled and flew to A-Xing's hand,
The faces of the ladies showed excitement about to succeed
The maid stared at the ball and counted the last drum
Everyone's eyes were focused on A-Xing's body
But at the moment when the flower ball just touched Ah Xing's hand, Ah Xing's hand was as fast as lightning, and she quickly threw the ball into the hand of the woman next to her
At the same time, the drumming stopped
The cheers of the ladies stopped abruptly, and there was disbelief in their eyes
The maid was stunned, and her face turned snow-white
And the woman who received the flower ball has not come back to her senses, this woman is the woman who made a sarcastic statement about A Xing just now, and she is also the insider of this incident, she deliberately sat next to her, thinking that she would see A Xing's ugly appearance most clearly, but she didn't expect the result to be like this.
The others, not knowing why, saw the ball fall into the woman's hand, and asked her to show the poem.
The success fell short, and the nobles all showed disappointed and angry expressions. Miss Xu looked at Ah Xing and said to the person next to her: "This Li Xing must have seen through our plan, her hand just now, as if she knew that the drum would stop soon!" Did someone leak the news? As she spoke, she looked at everyone.
The rest of the people shook their heads and said, "No, we all wish she was making a fool of herself, so how could we report to her?" β
Miss Xu looked unwilling, and said angrily: "This fox spirit is really not simple!" β
Miss Lu snorted coldly: "Don't be afraid, we still have a trick, she can hide from the first day of junior high school, but she can't hide from the fifteenth!" β
Over there, Yun Duo touched his chest and rejoiced: "It's so dangerous, the ball almost fell into Ah Xing's hands!" β
The Chen sisters had already seen that Ah Xing had passed this level by using the techniques they taught, and naturally understood the strangeness. Chen Jing smiled and said to Yunduo: "Silly Yunduo, if it wasn't for Ah Xing's fast hand just now, there would be a big trouble at this time!" β
Yun Duo is not stupid, and after their mention, she also figured out the whole thing, and she scolded in a low voice: "These people are so insidious! β
Ah Xing hurriedly said, "Yunduo, don't talk nonsense." β
Zhang Zhao's table was very close to them, and naturally they also saw the scene just now, Bultai looked at A Xing and praised: "I didn't expect the girl to be so agile!" β
Ah Xing smiled: "It's just a small skill of carving insects, and the prince has won the award." β
Shen Yuanfeng said coldly: "I want to know what will happen if the ball falls into Miss Axing's hand?" β
Chen Jing couldn't bear it anymore, and said to Shen Yuanfeng: "Do you really want to see Ah Xing make a fool of herself in front of everyone?" β
Shen Yuanfeng was speechless for a moment, did he want to see A Xing make a fool of himself? No, of course not, even if she is sorry for him, even if she no longer loves him, he can't stand being humiliated in public
Annoyed by the realization, he turned his head away and said no more.
Ah Xing looked at his silent face, and there was a little warmth in his heart, he always couldn't bear to see her hurt.
However, she can't compensate for the harm she did to him for the rest of her life......
Flower balls continue in the pass, third row, fourth row...... There are many people who are "forced" to show their poems, and there are many good verses among them, and of course there are works that make people laugh, but everyone is so happy, who cares about these? The atmosphere has been very warm. When the flower balls are passed through everyone's hands, the game is over.
At this time, Miss Lu stood up again and walked to the front desk, and when everyone saw her get up, they knew that she had a good idea again, and immediately cheered and called Miss Lu's name. Among them is also Miss Lu's fiancΓ©. Miss Lu enjoyed this kind of attention very much, and her heart was full of pride. didn't realize that he had unknowingly stolen Zhang Qingqiu's limelight.
She walked to the front desk, first called Sister Qingqiu, and then said loudly to everyone: "Everyone has been playing with flower balls for so long, and they must be tired of it, let's change the game, okay?" β
The people at the bottom are playing well, so they naturally say yes. It is rare to have an unmarried woman go out and play several times a year, which is a precious opportunity for both men and women, and it is natural to have fun.
Although Zhang Qingqiu couldn't say a word on the side, he kept looking at everyone with a smile.
Miss Lu motioned for everyone to be quiet and continued, "When everyone came in, everyone got a number plate, right? At this time, a maid moved a big box, Miss Lu walked to the box, grabbed some small pieces of paper from the round hole in the box, showed it to everyone and said: "This is the same number plate as everyone, and my maid will find a number from it, and the person with the same number in his hand will pick out a person from the crowd and compete on stage with himself to compose a poem, and the loser will accept the punishment of the winner!" β
This game seemed to be more exciting than the previous ones, and the crowd was boiling again.
