The third round of gambling
"What's the matter, Sister Wan'er?" Shi Sheng rushed to Lin Wan'er's room, and now she was sitting on the bed neatly dressed, with two lines of tears on her face, and her expression was a little haggard.
"Ah Sheng, I dreamed of my father!" Lin Wan'er finished speaking, her tears couldn't stop staying, Shi Sheng came to the bed and hugged her in her arms.
"Sister Wan'er, don't be too sad, otherwise...... Daddy and mother will be sad if they have a spirit in the sky, and Ah Sheng is here, I will definitely protect you and will not let you be bullied in any way!" Shi Sheng said with some sadness in his heart, patting Lin Wan'er on the back.
I don't know if Lin Wan'er is strong and sensible, or a little embarrassed, after a while, she stopped her tears, her cheeks were slightly red and left Shi Sheng's arms, after the two finished washing, one drank a bowl of porridge, and came to the neighbor's fifth aunt's house, Shi Sheng wanted to go by herself, but Lin Wan'er desperately insisted on following Shi Sheng.
"Hey, Wan'er and Shi Sheng are here. The fifth aunt was probably in her fifties, her face was full of vicissitudes, she was wearing an old skirt full of patches, she couldn't see her true colors at all, and looked at Shi Sheng and the two with a smile: "Shi Sheng, I heard Uncle Wang say that you are seriously injured, so soon?"
"Well, it's not a big deal. Shi Sheng smiled at the fifth aunt, naturally he couldn't say anything about his treatment, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
"Fifth aunt, Ah Sheng has to come out today to find some work, are there any lighter short-term jobs in the village?
"Today, the old house of the king in the village is demolished, and some manpower is needed, you can go over and have a look!" After the fifth aunt finished speaking, Shi Sheng and the others thanked each other and walked down the street.
The streets are full of bluestones, the buildings on both sides are green bricks and green tiles, antique, but some buildings are a little dilapidated, except for the yamen and some large families, there are some thatched houses on the edge of the village that are barely sheltered from the wind and rain.
"Thanks to Sister Wan'er today, otherwise I might not even be able to find the way!" Shi Sheng said helplessly.
Lin Wan'er just smiled slightly, but there was a look of worry in her eyes, she always felt that Shi Sheng had changed a little, and she was afraid that Shi Sheng's head injury would have any sequelae.
Not long after, the two came to a spacious bluestone road, a small courtyard appeared in front of them, just looking at the courtyard in front of them, they could see that it was a big family, but there was some old meaning.
There are two big stone lions at the door, two lanterns are hung on the door, and some family members go in and out to carry some things, some are placed on the carriage at the door, and some are thrown directly on the side of the road.
"This is the old mansion of Wang Yuanwai's family?" Shi Sheng sighed, feeling that the gap between the rich and the poor was really huge, he lived in a small thatched house, and the area of an old house of others was so large, it seemed that the gap between the rich and the poor in ancient and modern times has always existed.
In the courtyard, Shi Sheng suddenly appeared Bai Ming's figure, an old butler who was white, seemed to be explaining something to Bai Ming, Shi Sheng is ear chakra moved slightly, and then his eyes narrowed, and now since last night's meditation, his hearing and vision have been significantly enhanced.
"This old guy is really greedy!" Shi Sheng said with some anger, and the old housekeeper handed over all the twenty copper coins that Wang Yuanwai took out to Bai Ming.
Normally, two pennies hire a person, but Bai Ming can only spend one penny to hire a person, and in the end, he leaves two more pennies, and the remaining eight cents are finally handed over to the old housekeeper.
"One penny per person, limited places!" Bai Ming came to the door and whispered to several teenagers outside the door, most of whom were orphans like little beggars, dressed in ragged and shabby clothes.
"It's obviously two pennies per person, but when you come here, you are squeezed for one penny, is it your idea or someone else's idea?" Shi Sheng tried his best to raise his voice as high as possible, as long as the people around him heard it, he naturally wouldn't go to this volunteer who had eaten kickbacks.
To Shi Sheng's surprise, those people didn't know whether they believed Shi Sheng's words, or if they wanted to make this money, they nodded and agreed without hesitation, and after receiving the money, they went to work in the hospital, while Lin Wan'er looked at Bai Ming with an angry face.
"Hmph, use your mouth, tell you the truth, even if it's a penny now, Lao Tzu won't use you, you will wait to give Lin Wan'er to me in three days, hehe!" Bai Ming smiled mockingly.
Shi Sheng's face was a little ugly, and his fists clenched unconsciously, he didn't expect that there was such a villain in ancient times, and he was stumped by this villain, he felt angry when he thought about it, although Lin Wan'er was also very angry, she still pulled Shi Sheng's arm, which meant not to be angry.
In the courtyard, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old slender girl wearing a white plain skirt and outstanding appearance seemed to be arguing here, but she only frowned and didn't say anything, this woman was Yue Ling, the second lady of the Wang family!
"What? You still dare to do it here? Hehe, you can't earn a penny today, go home and drink the northwest wind, just like how to read Liu Gongzi......'s poem?
"Ragged and poor, self-satisfied, no blessing and ten thousand people are bullied! Hehe, I didn't expect you to compose poems, that's good, Shi will send you one on behalf of the poor, and your next two sentences don't need to be said!" Shi Sheng said with a sneer, shaking his patched sleeve robe, but he didn't look like a showman.
"Ding Ding is in a hurry to stay late, pecking all over the court and refusing to return, all day long for the king to get rid of the beetle, don't be idle and fly frequently!" Shi Sheng blurted out, and the people around him couldn't help but show surprise.
Shi Sheng's poem was originally written by the Tang Dynasty poet Chen Biao, who worked hard all day with a woodpecker, but was not loved by the master, which shows that those who work hard are not as good as those who tout the whiskers and horses in China and Japan, which not only belittles Bai Ming, but also satirizes the old housekeeper.
Bai Ming's face was immediately ugly, and he had a heart, but he didn't know how to refute it, after all, Bai Ming's two poems were still learned from others, and it was impossible for him to do it on the spot, even the old housekeeper couldn't help frowning, and his expression was a little unnatural.
The sound of clapping is heard!
"Good poetry!" A crisp woman's voice came out, and everyone followed the prestige, and couldn't help but show a solemn expression, and hurriedly nodded and bent over, "I've seen the second miss!" Bai Ming is eyes were a little gloomy, but he barely squeezed out a smile on his face.
The second lady of the Wang family ignored everyone, walked towards Shi Sheng, and walked to Lin Wan'er, Shi Sheng could even smell the faint fragrance coming from his body.
Looking at the girl's beauty, snow-white skin, and porcelain doll-like face, Shi Sheng was slightly distracted, but Lin Wan'er grabbed Shi Sheng's hand before he came back to his senses.
"Pass the award, just talk nonsense!" Shi Sheng said with some embarrassment, when had he ever seen such a stunning woman in the city?
The second young lady Yue Ling smiled: "You can make such a good poem casually? Then wouldn't you become a genius?
Shi Sheng shrugged his shoulders: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested!" After speaking, he pulled Lin Wan'er and turned around and left, he was here to earn some copper money for rice, but he didn't expect to earn even a penny in the end, it seems that it is really not easy to survive here.
"Don't you want to make money?" The second lady rolled her eyes, and sure enough, as soon as Shi Sheng heard that he was making money, he pulled Lin Wan'er to stop.
"Why did the second young lady say this?" Shi Sheng asked.
The second lady smiled slyly: "Compare the poems to the pair, and if you lose, take out ten cents to the other party, if you don't have it, find the real author of the poem you read out, and Miss Ben will see it." Yue Ling obviously didn't believe that this poem was written by Shi Sheng.
"Okay, but we should increase it, a hundred dollars a game!" Shi Sheng secretly snickered, comparing poetry pairs with himself, it was like looking for death, although he didn't have this ability, but the things left by the ancestors of Huaxia for thousands of years were simply casual.
"Hmph, ten cents are worth looking up to you, wouldn't you be able to take out a hundred cents right away? Shanglian, laughing at the past and laughing at the present, laughing at the east and laughing at the west, laughing at the south and laughing at the north, laughing back and forth, laughing at their ignorance!" the second lady smiled slightly.
A young passer-by shook the folding fan in his hand and praised it sincerely: "This pair looks simple, but it is an all-encompassing scene in ancient times, and the scene is not small, so it is good to be connected!
There was obviously irony at the end of the couplet, and Shi Sheng could naturally hear it, which was clearly alluding to his ignorance, and Shi Sheng's face was a little strange.
"What? give you a little more time, don't worry, this pair, as long as you can match it neatly, even if you win." Yue Ling saw that Shi Sheng's face was not very good, so she smiled slightly, although Lin Wan'er didn't know how to be right, she could still hear good and bad words, and she looked at Yue Ling a little unhappily.
Shi Sheng smiled: "Look at things and things, look at the sky and the earth, watch the sun and the moon, look at the top and look down, and watch others always have high and low!" Shi Sheng immediately retorted back, this couplet can also be all-encompassing, and in the end, there are high and low obviously have the intention of fighting back, of course, this couplet is naturally not made by Shi Sheng, it is purely borrowed.
"Wonderful!" The young passerby's eyes lit up, and the second young lady Yue Ling was a little moved, she didn't expect Shi Sheng to make such a neat pair so quickly, but she was a little angry that Shi Sheng fought back at the end.
Yue Ling was a little angry and gave out a hundred copper coins, the people around her were envious, Bai Ming's face was even more ugly, Shi Sheng asked Lin Wan'er to put away the hundred copper coins, Lin Wan'er's eyes widened and she couldn't believe it, it turned out that making money could be so easy?
But Lin Wan'er immediately took out ten copper coins and handed them to Bai Ming, who had a wooden face, and finally put down a big stone in her heart, and at the same time felt proud of Shi Sheng, who used to earn money to take care of Shi Sheng, and unconsciously, Shi Sheng was able to protect and take care of himself.
"Hmph, you win the first game, it's like a poem, this time it's two hundred dollars!
"Please!" Shi Sheng nodded, but his heart blossomed with joy!
The corners of Yue Ling's mouth raised: "Listen, the wind blows Fang Zhi Yan Nanfei, Nanfei Spring Green Pan Yan Gui, Yan Gui** is the most beautiful, the most beautiful Yan Gui is waiting for the wind to blow!"
The young passerby's eyes lit up, and they clapped their hands and admired: "It's really wonderful, not only the two words of the palindrome rhyme neatly, but the last sentence returns to the beginning, Yue Ling, it seems that your literary talent has not fallen!" The young passer-by obviously knew the second miss, Yue Ling smiled proudly, and more people gathered around to watch.
Shi Sheng pondered for a moment, this kind of poetry was best done by Su Dongpo back then, and Yueling's own creation can be described as exquisite, but compared with several generations of great poets, it is still a little worse, and the corners of Shi Sheng's mouth slowly raised.
"A trace of the autumn moon is like a hook, the moon is like a hook on the painting building, the hook is half a roll of the building curtain, and the floor curtain is half a trace of autumn!" Shi Sheng finished reading this poem, and everyone around was immediately shocked.
The whole poem is only thirteen words, but it is a perfect composition of a seven-word poem, not only rhyme, but also neat, each palindromic four words, although the poem of the moon spirit is exquisite, but compared with this poem, it is simply not a grade, even Lin Wan'er can hear it.
"Two hundred yuan, I am willing to lose the bet! Sister Wan'er collects the money!" Shi Sheng smiled.
Yue Ling's face was a little ugly: "Hmph, it's for you, maybe somewhere to write it down, even a poor boy like you can still write poetry?" Let's come again, Shanglian ......" Yue Ling handed over two hundred yuan, and was put away by Lin Wan'er, who was a little stunned, and was just about to open his mouth to make a couplet, but was interrupted by Shi Sheng.
"Miss, isn't this unfair, you have published poems in a row, should you let Shi Mou make a couplet?" Shi Sheng said with the corners of his mouth raised.
"Yue Ling, I don't think this kid is simple, don't compare!" The young passer-by shook the folding fan in his hand, and frowned and persuaded him.
But Yue Ling's competitive heart rose, and he waved his hand: "I don't believe that he can compose poems, he must have plagiarized from others, I see how many he can memorize, besides, how can I lose the title of the first talented woman to him?"
Shi Sheng's heart moved, and suddenly a thought came to him, and he said with a smile: "This time bet on the couplet of ten cents, as long as you can match, the ten cents will be yours." ”
"Okay, you say!" Yue Ling said with some competition, at this time, it was no longer a matter of money, but face.
Shi Sheng showed a meaningful smile and said slowly: "Shanglian, it's not north and south!"
Yue Ling laughed with a puff, and smiled at the young passerby: "Look, I'll just say that he is exhausted, such an idiot's Shanglian can come out, just open his mouth, three-year-old children will, hum."
Listen, it's not north and south, I'm not up to the bottom, it's not something down!" After speaking, Yue Ling looked proud, but the faces of the people around her were a little strange, and Lin Wan'er finally couldn't help but burst out laughing. Moon Ling is at a loss.,Am I not right?(This is the end.,The next chapter is even more exciting!)
(ps. cough cough, who will go to the next couplet?go to the book review area to study it, haha, ask for collections, ask for recommendations, all kinds of support, I'm going to hypnotize you and vote for me!!);
