Chapter 70: Puzzle Clearing
Hearing this, Miqiu looked at the sky, sighed, and then looked down at the bamboo scroll in his hand, and said, "Then who do I ask this poem?" ”
"Or..."The maid knelt aside, looked at Miqiu and said hesitantly, "Go and ask the lord?" ”
"How dare you ask my father?" Mi Qiu said, lowered his head, looked at the bamboo scroll in his hand, and said with a sad face: "It's just to deal with my father's evening questioning, if I ask him myself, won't he be told that he doesn't care about going to school." ”
"Then that, then go and ask the second son." The maid on the side looked at Miqiu and suggested.
"Second brother?" Miqiu raised his head and looked at the door.
She turned her head to look at the maid on the side: "Is the second brother out of school?" ”
The maid nodded: "It's time to go, when the concubine (Note 1) came back, she watched the head manager of Fengcun take the little mute to the second son's study." ”
Listening to the maid's words, Miqiu's eyes lit up, and he propped up the table to get up.
The maid hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Miqiu stood still, patted the folded skirt, then picked up the bamboo roll on the table, and ran to the door with his feet in white socks, put on the paulownia clogs and walked out.
Shi Yiguang was still grinding for the second son Xiong Chao in the house, lowering his eyebrows, almost forgotten.
Xiong Chao held the pen and gently outlined a little of the woman's red lips on the cloth with cinnabar.
There was a "clang", and the door was pushed open.
Xiong Chao was so frightened that his hand shook, and the cinnabar on the tip of the pen was pulled, and the cherry mouth of the beauty in the painting was instantly pulled like a toad. He frowned suddenly, and was about to raise his head and scold.
The next moment, the stone yellow embroidered Qi skirt appeared around the wooden screen.
Who is wearing this dress, Xiong Chao naturally knows.
Before he could finish speaking, the cloth on the table he was holding in his hand was pulled down, and he put down the pen stained with cinnabar.
"Third sister, why are you here?" Xiong Chao asked softly as he pulled the cloth that had not yet been hidden under the table.
"I don't know two lines of poetry here, so I'll ask my second brother." As he spoke, Mi Qiu walked to the opposite side where Xiong Chao was sitting, sat down, put the bamboo roll in his hand on the table, and pushed it towards Xiong Chao.
"Can you explain it for me?"
Xiong Chao coughed dryly, took the scroll pushed by Miqiu, and unfolded it to read.
"Kaopan is in Ah, Shuoren's Xue (ke). Sleep alone, forever. (Note 2)" Xiong Chao looked at the bamboo scroll, muttered softly, and frowned.
What does that mean?
Mi Qiu looked at Xiong Chao and frowned, and then frowned, with a bitter face, and asked, "Second brother doesn't understand?" ”
Xiong Chao pursed his lips, scratched his scalp, and said hesitantly: "This, this ......" said, he raised his head and looked at Miqiu: "You learned such a difficult thing at such a young age?" ”
"Is it difficult?" Mi Qiu looked up at Xiong Chao and asked puzzledly, "I see that the same sisters seem to know." ”
"Then why don't you ask them?" Xiong Chao looked at Miqiu and asked rhetorically.
"They live so far away, my father should have turned my back after dinner, and I have time to ask them." Miqiu sat opposite Xiong Chao and replied honestly.
Xiong Chao listened to Miqiu's words, and his brows furrowed and did not let go.
"Kaopan is in Ah, Shuoren's Xu? Lonely Song, forever Yafu?? Xiong Chao muttered, and then looked up at Miqiu: "Knocking on plates in the middle of the curve to make fun?" Just happy? ”
Xiong Chao said uncertainly, frowning.
"What does that mean? It's a joy to bang on a plate in the mountains. Knocking on the plate and knocking it out cheerfully? Witchcraft. Xiong Chao stared at the bamboo scroll in his hand and said uncertainly.
When I said it, I didn't feel right.
Shi Yiguang lowered his head, silently studied the ink in his hand, and said nothing as if it didn't exist. Hearing Xiong Chao's muttering, the corners of his mouth pulled down. There was a slight disgust in the look that I couldn't see.
Suddenly, Xiong turned his head and looked at Shi Yiguang, who was not paying attention to anyone on the side. He said, "You, you go out, find a father's doorman, and say that I have doubts and ask for advice." ”
Hearing this, Shi Yiguang put down the ink stick in his hand, got up and exited.
Xiong Chao turned his head, looked at the bamboo scroll in his hand, and then looked up at Miqiu sitting in front of him: "Such a difficult question, if any gentleman solves the puzzle, I will give him a baht." (Note 3)
Shi Yiguang paused backwards.
Then he raised his head and looked at Xiong Chao.
Sensing Shi Yiguang's stopped movements, Xiong Chao looked up at her, frowned and said unhappily: "Little dumb, what do you look at?" Tell you to go to the gentleman immediately, didn't you hear? ”
Miqiu and the maid beside him also turned their heads, inexplicably looking at Shi Yiguang who stopped in place.
Shi Yiguang looked at Xiong Chao, and his lips moved.
"You say, to solve the doubt, you will promise a baht?"
Mi Qiu and Xiong Chao both stared at Shi Yiguang with wide eyes.
"You're not dumb?!" Xiong Chao looked at Shi Yiguang and exclaimed.
Miqiu, who was sitting opposite, also opened his mouth in slight surprise and looked at Shi Yiguang in surprise.
Shi Yiguang shook his head, and his tone was unwavering: "I didn't say that I was dumb. ”
When Xiong Chao heard this, he didn't think about it and asked, "Then why don't you speak?!" ”
Shi Yiguang looked at Xiong Chao and said without changing his face: "Ignorant people, don't talk to them." ”
In a word, the choked Xiong Chao and Miqiu are both a meal. The two glanced at each other before turning their heads and continuing to look at Shi Yiguang.
"That is, in the past we were all ignorant in your eyes?" Xiong Chao looked at Shi Yiguang and asked with an unbelievable tone.
Shi Yiguang looked at Xiong Chao and didn't reply, only said: "Is the poetic explanation incomprehensible?" ”
Xiong Chao was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Do you know? ”
Miqiu on the side didn't think about Xiong Chao, and when he heard Shi Yiguang say that he wanted to solve it, he took the bamboo scroll on the case and handed it to Shi Yiguang's direction: "Solution, then you can talk about it." ”
Seeing this, Shi Yiguang was not polite, went straight to the side of Miqiu and sat down, took the bamboo roll in her hand, looked at it, looked up at Miqiu, and said with a glance: "Kaopan is here, Shuoren's Xue." Sleep alone, forever. This is a poem about a reclusive gentleman. The poetic meaning is roughly that in the mountainside far away from the hustle and bustle, the virtuous gentleman has a broad mind. Singing alone and sleeping alone, I don't forget this comfortable feeling. ”
At that time, on the way, in order to better recognize words, An Yangjun told her all the obscure words in "Poems".
"Singing alone and sleeping alone, don't forget this comfortable feeling." Miqiu repeated Shi Yiguang's words, looking at the bamboo roll and muttering to himself.
She nodded as she spoke: "Yes, Mr. seems to be taught like this." As she spoke, she suddenly raised her head, looked at Shi Yiguang and said with a smile, "Thank you." ”
After that, he didn't wait for Shi Yiguang to reply, he just turned his head to look at Xiong Chao, and said coquettishly with a smile: "Second brother, can you give me this slave?" ”
