People in Datang, start with a golden hoe

Chapter 191 191: Filial piety suppresses people

Cai Xiaolan took the opportunity to leave early and waited for Xu Xiaoqin to come out. As soon as he saw her showing up, he immediately pulled her away.

"Haha, let me tell you, some people come to the poetry meeting and can't write a single poem. They are just making trouble. Even if they dress plainly, their poetic talent is barren!" Qi Lihong saw that Cai Xiaolan was about to leave, and immediately Exporting hurts people.

Cai Xiaolan glanced at the speaker, not seeing him before, and turned to leave. But I heard her continue to yell: "Yo? What are you looking at? Is the biting dog ready to bark?"

"Madam, I don't know you, right?" Cai Xiaolan was displeased.

"Hmph! Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. When you are a white man, you want to..." Qi Lihong continued to attack, but was interrupted by another person on the side.

"Miss Qi, if you have anything to say, come directly to me, why bother others?" Lu Shiyu was furious. Qi Lihong said this obviously to lose face as the introducer.

When Xu Xiaoqin saw her sister Xiaolan being bullied, she complained: "No, sister Xiaolan is talented in poetry. She also wrote a poem last night, which fits today's topic."

"Tsk - I need a yellow-haired girl to come forward! If you have poems, why don't you write them out? Hide them and hold them back, just like a turtle?" Qi Lihong has a talent for reciting poems and writing poems, and the words he spits out are very vivid. One against three, no fear at all.

"Hey, there is also a piece of Hu Pancake hidden in my arms. It's oily. Aren't you afraid that the lard will blind you?" The woman's nose smelled the spices in the Hu Pancake.

Cai Xiaolan shook her head, "Xiaoqin, there is no need to argue with others."

"Hahaha, the turtle shrank its head."

The vulgar speech attracted more people's attention. The person who stepped out of the hospital with one foot retracted his foot again. He didn't enjoy the first scene, but the second one was performed with drums and gongs.

Of course you have to watch it!

"You—" Even though Cai Xiaolan had a good temper, she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Isn't it true? There are poems that you don't want to read?"

Xu Xiaoqin couldn't hold it in any longer, "The sound of firecrackers removes the year old, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu; thousands of households always replace old talisman with new peaches."

"Hahaha, are firecrackers considered bamboos?" Qi Lihong laughed.

At first, some of the spectators laughed too, but fewer and fewer people laughed, and they gradually became stunned.

"Little lady, does this poem have a title? Can you leave a name?" a student from the Imperial College asked Cai Xiaolan. The little girl just said it was her sister's work.

"Title: Yuan Day."

"Wonderful! Today's poetry meeting was not in vain." The man laughed and left.

Others wanted to refute, but those in Imperial College robes spoke highly of him and did not dare to say anything against their will just to flatter him.

Qi Lihong, who had just laughed at people, her face turned red and white, and she could open a dyeing workshop.

Cai Xiaolan and Xu Xiaoqin walked away without incident.

"Oh, I told you to keep a low profile! This Chang'an also has my story!" Cai Xiaolan murmured to herself.

……

The insane man in the room woke up.

Shangguan Yi said in surprise: "The little girl has good medical skills. She said she would wake up in just a moment, and she did."

Cui Boyan was also happy for Shangguan Yi when he saw him waking up. Shangguan Yi wanted to make friends with him, but he didn't have many friends, so they had a lot of connections with each other. He had known that his friend wanted to go to school. If this person died at the poetry meeting, his career would be completely in despair before it even started.

"Xiaoqin is so awesome!" Cui Dongping was overjoyed. This joy diluted the depression caused by the third brother. He was obviously just going out to participate in a poetry meeting, but he was punished to stand in a corner in public.

At the same time, there was something strange in her heart. Four years ago, Xu Xiaoqin was still a country girl following her. But now, she has become a real country girl. She only knows a little bit about female celebrities, and the characters she recognizes are still those taught by Cai Xiaolan. Being new to the world, she really couldn't understand why her father came back and her family became bigger, but there was no room for the "three brothers and sisters-in-law" who were constantly thinking about things.

Since the man explained that this time it was a recurrence of an old illness, it had nothing to do with the poetry meeting. Shangguan Yi invited a coachman to take him back. When leaving, he took care of him and said: "Brother Qu, this prescription was left by the girl who just treated you. You have to decide whether it is effective or not."

The man was confused, took the paper from Shangguan Yi's hand, put it in his arms casually, got in the car and left without saying anything else. The epilepsy happened in public, and with the speed at which gossip spread in Chang'an City, all the noble families would know about it tomorrow. It is almost impossible to marry a well-matched wife. As the second eldest son in the house, without the help of his wife's family, how can he compete with the boss?

Thinking of this, he almost lost all hope.

……

As expected, Cai Xiaolan once again felt speechless about the ancient people's meal time. She took Xu Xiaoqin and ran all the way, but still didn't make it in time for dinner. The second meal at the inn was finished before the sun set.

Xu Xiaoqin glanced out the window. The old man who set up the stall yesterday was not there. She couldn't help but feel lucky: "Sister Xiaolan, it's lucky that we have two biscuits, otherwise we would have been hungry again at night."

"Yes, thanks to Xiaoqin. If you hadn't said you would eat two cakes, I really wouldn't have bought more."

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

The poetry meeting was unexpectedly delayed for a while, and still went on until late at night. Cui Dongping stayed next to Cui Boyan, and fell asleep twice before hearing the host of the poetry meeting announce the end.

"Wonderful! Among the poems in today's poetry meeting, the one from "Yuan Ri" is the best. The sentence seems simple, but after careful consideration, it contains new ideas and has a unique flavor! I heard that it was written by a woman, but it's a pity that I didn't see it." Cui In the carriage, Bo Yan was still recalling the poems from the poetry meeting, and regarded it as a regret in his life that he could not see the creator of "Yuan Ri".

When he asked, the people who watched the second "play" said a lot of adjectives, but this did not remind everyone at the poetry meeting who this person was.

The introducer, Lu Shiyu, had already gone home early.

But Cui Dongping guessed who it was. It was dull and dull, as if it had been starched many times. Wasn't it what her "third brother and sister-in-law" wore outside?

She listened to the third brother sighing and couldn't help but tease him, "Third brother, I know who wrote the poem. Promise me one thing and I will tell you."

"Real or false?" Cui Boyan couldn't believe it for a moment. His sister, who had been living in a boudoir for a long time, actually knew someone that none of the young people in Chang'an recognized.

"Don't talk about one thing, just three things, and the third brother also agreed!"

"Okay, just three things." Cui Dongping took it seriously and made the request first: "First, take me out to play once a month!"

"No problem!" Cui Boyan slapped his chest loudly.

"Secondly, you have to give me pocket money."

"Third brother, I didn't bring any money when I came out today. I'll give you money as soon as I get home!" Cui Boyan looked at Xiao Dongping distressedly. He was negligent, and his sister took the simplest things as conditions, which was enough to see how boring her daily life was.

This brother of his has neglected his duty.

"Third, marry the third brother and sister-in-law back!"

"Uh-" Cui Boyan was stunned for a long time, "This matter..."

"Is it difficult? My mother-in-law said that you are now a high-ranking official in the imperial court. Isn't this okay?" Cui Dongping was puzzled and continued to talk: "Don't you want to know who wrote the poem?"

Cui Boyan was silent for a long time, "Dong Ping, the closer you get to officialdom, the more difficult it is to be free. The word 'filial piety' is overwhelming."

"Can't you? Let me tell you, the person who wrote the poem is the third brother and sister-in-law, and she is in Chang'an. Please promise me -"
