Chapter 34: Miss Ding's Surprise
In fact, if the maid said that someone had a good couplet, she would not be so surprised, after all, in addition to the couplet, inspiration also plays a role, what if someone blind cat meets a dead mouse? But to say that one person is against several, she absolutely does not believe it.
The maid hurriedly said: "Miss, it's true, the upper and lower links are Bai Jingfei's son of Datong Mansion, and his lower links are 'male students, female students, male and female students', 'East School, West School, East and West School to learn things' and 'Left Guard, Right Guard, Left and Right Guards Serve Left and Right'. ”
Hearing the maid say the first link, Ding Xinru was very ashamed in her heart, such obscene words, only those frivolous and boring guys can say it, but after she heard it, the shame and anger all turned into shock. In fact, these three couplets are not absolutely neat, but it is by no means possible for ordinary people to come up with so many couplets in such a short period of time.
Bai Jingfei knew that this guy relied on his father's lofty status in Datong Mansion, and he didn't learn anything on weekdays, he was just a straw bag, when did he learn like this? Could it be that this person has been hidden all along, and he is making a splash today for his own sake? Thinking of this, Ding Xinru's heart couldn't help beating faster.
It's just that the next moment, she thought of the handsome face in the rain again, and her mind immediately calmed down: "You said that there are two other people who also came out?" Read it to me! ”
The maid said: "Okay, among these two people, Cao Gongzi only has one couplet, the right is 'big casino, small casino, big and small casino gambling size', and the two couplets of Liu Gongzi are 'ancient college, modern college, ancient and modern college to learn ancient and modern' and 'Sun learns, Zi learns, Sun Tzu learns to learn "Sun Tzu". ”
Ding Xinru nodded, in fact, in her opinion, the best link should be 'Sun Learn, Zi Learn, Sun Tzu Learn to Learn "Sun Tzu"', it and Uncle Bao's 'Spring Reading, Autumn Reading, Spring and Autumn Reading and Reading "Spring and Autumn"' are embedded in the title of the book, this Liu Gongzi really has a good way to learn.
Wait a minute...... Ding Xinru's heart jumped suddenly, and Liu Gongzi ...... The other party's surname is Liu? She hurriedly raised her head and asked the maid: "What do you say about the surname of the person who came out of the next link, and where does the family live?" ”
Miss's eagerness startled the maid, and she stammered: "Cao Gongzi is Cao Renxian, Miss, if you want me to say that although this Cao Gongzi's subordinate is not a bit serious, Cao Gongzi himself is very strong, and his family background is ......."
Looking at the maid's nymphomaniac eyes, Ding Xinru wanted to slap her twice, but now she couldn't care about this, and just asked, "I'm talking about Liu Gongzi." ”
"Young Master Liu?" The maid was a little disappointed: "I don't know about this, I just heard that the master said that he is from the capital, by the way, he is the same as Uncle Ding, he is the champion!" ”
It's him...... It must be him...... Ding Xinru felt that at this moment, the whole person was surrounded by great happiness, and she didn't dare to tell Ding Qingwen about Liu Gongzi, but she kept inquiring about him in private, and she naturally understood her sweetheart's every move.
Xing'er didn't expect that Liu Gongzi, who Miss had been thinking about day and night, would come to Ding's Mansion in person, and she couldn't help but be happy for Miss. However, she immediately realized a problem, she had just used the silver for Qian Yu to destroy, would it be self-defeating now?
She just wanted to ask her young lady about this, but Ding Xinru jumped up from the chair as if she was enchanted: "Xing'er, let's go, let's go to the front yard to have a look...... No, no, there are so many people in the front yard, it's not appropriate for me to go. What to do, what to do? Yes, I'll come up with a few questions, and you can help me send them to my dad and tell him that if someone's answer is what I want, it's all up to my dad. ”
After speaking, he asked the maid to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone, seeing that the young lady was flustered and shy, Xing'er hesitated for a long time and did not speak. Forget it, she asked Qian Yu to help, just to deal with those ordinary guests, now that Liu Gongzi, who has the best talent, has arrived, even if Qian Yu is still a little witty, how many waves can he make in the face of absolute strength?
Of course, Qian Yu didn't know that there had been a new change in the situation on his employer's side, and he was racking his brains to help Bai Jingfei think of the next link, just this time, Bao Xiren came out with four more links, and they were all relatively unfamiliar to Qian Yu, so he had to rely on his wit to deal with it. Although Qian Yu is a Chinese teacher, he also dabbles in the subset of scripture and history, but compared to those guys who deal with these things all day long, he is barely able to make three, and he is not very brilliant, fortunately, with the amazing performance just now, as soon as Bai Jingfei read it, there were a lot of applause, and he also successfully collected fifteen taels of silver.
However, it is the champion Liu Shijun, every time Bao Xiren comes out, he can answer as quickly as possible, not only neatly, but also quite meaningful, showing strong strength.
In fact, Bao Xiren deliberately reduced the difficulty of these couplets, after all, if the banquet wants to drive the atmosphere, it is best for everyone to participate in it, so except for Liu Shijun and Qian Yu, other talents have more or less come out, and Zhao An, who is cheeky and Bai Jingfei, is also right, but unfortunately in the sea of literature and thought that is full of flowers, it quickly sank.
Seeing that the atmosphere was slowly becoming warmer, Bao Xiren and Ding Qingwen glanced at each other and wanted to enter the next link.
Suddenly, a beautiful girl appeared in front of everyone, the girl's white dress was fluttering, pure and lovely, and immediately became a moving scenery in the eyes of all talents. Everyone couldn't help but stare at each other, and after drinking two more glasses, they even blew a hidden hooligan whistle under the pretext of drinking.
Ding Qingwen's calm face instantly darkened, because this woman is her daughter's personal maid Xing'er, you must know that the personal maid of a large family will marry her husband with the young lady in the future, and she is half of the room. So to a certain extent, the personal maid's every move can also represent the reputation of the young lady, and now that she is showing up in front of so many people, then others will think of their baby daughter so much?
Xing'er was actually very apprehensive in her heart, as Ding Xinru's mouthpiece, although she often ran before and after, it was the first time for her to stand in front of the public, and she even saw her master's ugly face.
took a deep breath, stuffed the note in his arms into Ding Qingwen's hand, and ran away without looking back, and at the same time secretly angry in his heart: "Miss is really, just a note, just find a family member to send it over, why do you have to run it yourself?" ”
Ding Qingwen looked at the note in his hand suspiciously, and there were already some conjectures in his heart, and when he opened it, he immediately laughed.
Everyone present looked at Ding Qingwen's face from Tie Qing when the girl appeared, to laughing heartily in an instant, and couldn't help but look at each other, what happened to make his attitude change so quickly? There is no shortage of people with a lively eye who noticed the note in Ding Qingwen's hand, what is written in it? How can it be so magical? For a while, curiosity was aroused.
Ding Qingwen couldn't help but be excited, because the thing in his hand was a link, and this link was written by his daughter herself, did this girl finally get her senses? His daughter's lifelong event has always been a headache for him, and it is rumored that Ding Xinru has not married yet, and he can't be the master of his daughter, in fact, Ding Xinru has never violated his will, he didn't marry his daughter in advance, just because of her mother's last wishes.
To be honest, he held this banquet without consulting his daughter, which was actually very inconsiderate, even if he finally chose the suitable person he thought was suitable, if his daughter did not agree, the marriage could only be abandoned. Now with this note, like a reassuring pill, Ding Qingwen instantly lifted his spirits.
Standing up and looking around, he smiled: "Everyone, you must have heard about the purpose of the old man's banquet this time, that's right, the old man has no children under his knees, and only Xinru has a daughter, so he wants her to accompany the old man for a few more years, but it's a pity that the woman is not staying......"
Bai Jingfei took the opportunity to interject: "Uncle don't worry, as long as Miss Ding is willing to marry, I can come to Ding's Mansion to be a son-in-law, and then let my father find me an errand in Qingfeng County. The father-in-law is the eye of the palace test, and he and his son-in-law are just chess opponents, and they will meet good talents......"
Everyone thought that they were hearing the key point, but they were interrupted by this guy. The dignified Datong Mansion Yin Dagongzi, for the sake of the upper position, is so shameless, but he is afraid of his father's prestige, and everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak.
Ding Qingwen didn't seem to hear the words, and paused: "I know that you can come today because of your love for the little girl, but there is only one little girl, and there can only be one husband, so next I invite you to show your talents and learn, and the little girl will judge it herself, which one is most in line with her heart, hehe...... We can discuss it in detail. ”
The detailed discussion in Ding Qingwen's mouth was meaningful, and the talents below couldn't help but think about it after listening to it, and they all sat upright, waiting for the following.
I saw Ding Qingwen stand up, picked up the note in his hand, and said, "There is a couplet here, you can try to pair it!" Shanglian is 'ten thoughts, thinking of clouds and rain and thinking of kings'. ”
Since Xing'er brought the note, all the talents have guessed, and now they have listened to Shanglian, and they are more sure of their judgment, which borrows "ten hearts" as "thoughts" to express their thoughts about the arrival of their lover, this "Jun", which can cover everyone present, can also be simply understood as themselves. This link is likely to be written by Miss Ding herself, has she been thinking about herself?
As soon as they thought of this, all the talented people immediately trembled with excitement as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. No, I must make the next couplet, harmonize with Miss Ding, and spread a good story.
Compared with others, Bai Jingfei is even more excited, you must know that it was he who offered to be the son-in-law just now, and Miss Ding wrote this Shanglian, as for the time sequence of the two...... This is not the point, the point is that he is infinitely charming, look at Liu Zhuangyuan, it seems that he is still considering, and then look at Cao Renxian, who is drinking by himself? He can ignore it. I'm going to be able to get ahead of everybody.
Thinking about it, he stood up and shouted, "I have it, my next link is...... Uh......"
Hearing Bai Jingfei's words, everyone couldn't help but be surprised, so fast? Oh no, but when they saw this thing and stopped, they couldn't help but look at each other.
Bai Jingfei instantly realized that he was a little anxious, he didn't seem to have asked Qian Yu yet? Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he was a little embarrassed, so he had to wave his hand: "Ah... I just thought about it, and I was excited and then forgot. Forget it, give you a chance, I'll think again! ”
After speaking, he sat back with a grin, his expression calm, as if it was someone else who stood up just now.
