Chapter 10: Poetry
Chapter 10 Poems
"Hey, why are you here?" Song Yan was very surprised when she came over.
"Ah......" Before Zhao Zhi could speak, Xiao Dong said first: "Someone borrowed an umbrella from us." β
"Yes, I said, I didn't see you in the pavilion, which scared me, and then I wondered if you came first." Song Yan glanced inside: "If you want to make a poem, go in and take a look, this is the main thing, the first evaluation is the flower, the champion list eye and the flower, this time the evaluation is the poem, only one is selected, the color head is a green jade inkstone, many people are rushing to this." β
"No wonder."
They had gone in late, and the good seats in the hall had been occupied, except for a few chairs on the side. Song Yan tugged at Xiao Dong's sleeve: "Let's sit here." β
They walked up to them, but someone took a step forward and sat down on the chair first, and took the other two by the way: "Come on, there are two more here." β
Two more girls came over from behind, and Song Yan said, "This is where we came first." β
"You came first? Who saw it? This chair is your home? Engrave your name? β
Xiao Dong felt that this person seemed familiar, this was not the one he met when he visited the academy in the morningβyes, it was those three people.
This is really a narrow road.
"Sister Song, it's really unfortunate." The girl who had spoken to them in the morning smiled and said, "Are you too late?" I remember there are a few empty chairs in the doorway, so you might as well go and sit there. β
Zhao Zhi's face sank, why didn't they see the empty chair when they entered the door, but the people who came in and out, eighty percent of them shook their clothes and put their umbrellas there, how could they sit on the chair drenched with water?
No wonder when she said she was coming, her cousin said that it was better to dress up carefully, because she was afraid that these people would look at people and bully them?
Do you think they are native buns from the countryside and have never seen the world? Isn't it enough to snatch the chairs, but also send them to sit on wet chairs like a flower child?
Xiao Dong also felt that these three people were too much, the one who sat down first was scathing, and although the later one smiled, the smile seemed to be more hurtful than the mean words.
Someone from far and near heard and saw the movement here, Zhao Zhi wanted to say something, Xiao Dong pulled her, Zhao Zhi's face turned red, Song Yan saw that Xiao Dong didn't want to argue with people here, and said softly: "I'll go over there again to see if there are any empty seats." β
Miss Yin beckoned to them from the side: "Miss Song, come and sit here." β
They sat on a bench over there, and it really made room for them to move, and they moved a round stool from the side, which could sit three people.
Zhao Zhi glanced back a little stupidly, followed Song Yan over there, and asked Song Yan in a low voice, "Where are they coming from?" β
Song Yan said softly: "The smiling man in yellow is Wang Yinglan, the unlikable speaker is Meng Xia, and the honest one is Liu Huizhu." β
"Look at that proud one, the eyeballs are longing to grow to the top of the head, I have never seen them again...... That Wang Yinglan, what does she do at home? β
"Her father is Wang Jiahuai, the head of the household."
"Ah......h
That's equivalent to half a prime minister, Xiao Dong knows him, King An mentioned it once, saying that this person is a smiling tiger and is not easy to deal with. Should it be said that if there is a father, there must be a daughter? Wang Yinglan also looks like she is always smiling.
"Cousin, she's usually so unkind to you?"
Song Yan shook her head slightly: "We haven't usually said a few words, but today we happened to meet them twice in a row." β
The beautiful flowers at the flower race just now were laid out in a row, the smell of the flowers, the smell of the incense powder and the oil used by the girls, and the smell of earthy earth outsideβthe windows were closed for fear of rain splashing in, making people feel stuffy in their chests.
Zhao Zhi looked at what poems Miss Yin had written, but saw that the paper was still snow-white.
"Sister Yin, do you want that Qingyu inkstone when you participate in this flower competition?"
Miss Yin smiled: "Yes, this inkstone was made by Li Shan, a famous artist in the previous dynasty, and later it was transferred to the hands of Master Ou. Although there are more talented people in the academy than me, I still want to give it a try. β
"Master Ou?" Xiao Dong and Zhao Zhi said in unison: "Ou Lanying? β
"yes." Miss Yin smiled: "You have also heard of Master Ou's name, right?" β
Zhao Zhi nodded, and Xiao Dongxin said: Not only have I heard of it, but I have also been taught and reprimanded by her.
Since Miss Li collided with Ou Lan Ying that year, her life has become more and more difficult, and then one day she did not appear in Jiyutang, others said that she was sick, and then a Jiang female official temporarily took charge of Jiyutang. And Ou Lanying ...... As soon as she was ill, she became a young woman, and the temporary replacement of Jiang Female Official became an official appointment, and Ou Lanying did not return to Jiyutang later, and they did not know her whereabouts Xiaodong. Some people speculated whether she had returned to her hometown, and others said that she had left home. Unexpectedly, I heard her name here again.
Xiao Dong pondered, how much this district master loves education, left Jiyutang and came to Evergreen Academy again.
But after thinking about it carefully, she felt very understanding.
In addition to doing this, what else can Ou Lanying do? As those before had speculated, either she would return to her hometown and be forgotten and live in seclusion in the middle of nowhere. Or leave home. After all, she has become a living archway of Zhenlie, and it is impossible to marry.
There are too few things that women can do in this day and age, and there are too few paths to walk.
The best, the most orthodox, is still ...... Get married.
Getting married is a woman's biggest and best achievement. A good wife and mother, husband and children, trapped in the inner house all her life...... Only those who are not well married and cannot marry must find another way out.
Therefore, although Ou Lanying is a generation of talented women, few mothers are willing to let their daughters follow her path. Under the name of a talented woman is infinite loneliness and difficulty in gaining a foothold. Ou Lanying became what she is today because she was widowed and couldn't marry anyone.
Speaking of which, you still have to marry and take a secular and mediocre path.
Xiaodong feels that her life is now very complete and happy - she doesn't know what will happen to her in the future, what kind of person she will marry, and what kind of life she will live.
It must not be as good as it is now.
There will be no one like King An and Zhao Lu who love her unconditionally, tolerate her and care for her, she must learn to endure, compromise, and maybe learn to calculate and fight for ......
In the past, when I thought about it occasionally, I could use my young age to avoid it too early, but now I can't, she is no longer a child - her chest has begun to feel a dull pain......
Growth is inevitable, just like the path she will take in the future, and the people she will face......
One day, she will put on a red wedding dress and leave King An's mansion.
Zhao Zhi looked at Xiao Dong's stunned expression, a little puzzled, and patted her gently: "What's wrong?" What do you think? β
"It's fine." Xiao Dong also poked his head to see what poems Miss Yin had written on the paper.
"What kind of flower does Miss Yin want to write poetry for?"
Miss Yin raised her head, and Xiao Dong followed her gaze and saw a chrysanthemum.
Miss Yin is humble and kind, and she is quite enthusiastic, Xiao Dong hopes that she can get her wish and take the green jade inkstone home. However, this writing poetry is really not her strength, and she can't help if she wants to.
