Chapter 115 People are afraid of being famous

Wen Ruonan shook his head, "No, most of the people here are rich families or the daughters of officials and gentry who came from Kao City, and I also came from Kao City. Maybe my sister doesn't know, because there was a champion in this town 20 years ago. , that is, the grand tutor of the current empire, when he returned to his hometown in fine clothes, he set this rule. In order to be famous or to borrow the treasure of the grand tutor, talented scholars from surrounding states and counties like to participate in the poetry meeting, so that they can become famous. Second, you can make friends with more talented scholars or officials, which will help your official career.”

Yi Xue didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns. It seems that not everyone can attend such a poetry meeting.

"Actually, there is Miss Fourth here," Wen Ruonan pursed his lips and smiled.

"Miss Fourth?" Yi Xue was taken aback.

Wen Ruonan blinked lightly from the corner of his eyes, a little naughty, "Hu Yun'er from the Hu family is Hu Qingke's younger sister, Liu Mei from the Liu family, Li Man'er from the Li family from Huawangcheng, and Xia Yunwan from the Xia family", she said, sweeping her eyes away, Yi Xue Then we got to know each other one by one.

The one who looked at her with disdain just now was Liu Mei, but now sitting in the courtyard surrounded by three or five young girls, the one wearing a purple three-flowered Xuhua dress is Li Man'er, and the other girl with a snow-like body and a cold face is Xia Yunwan.

Xia Yunwan didn't seem to like crowds very much, just now she saw a few young girls surrounded by her, but now she was standing in the garden with her maid, staring alone in a daze.

After listening to Wen Ruonan's introduction, Hu Yun'er from the Hu family is now missing.

"Why isn't elder sister one of the fourth young ladies?" Yi Xue asked curiously, she felt that Wen Ruonan's talent wasn't bad just now.

Wen Ruonan smiled faintly, "I have been sick since I was a child, so I don't come out often. I came here once last year, just to watch the excitement. Besides, my sister, I don't have any talents, so I can't be a good one."

Yi Xue understands Wen Ruonan's thoughts, she is the same as herself, and doesn't care much about these things, unexpectedly, she meets a girl who thinks she has the same goals here.

"Sister Wen, why did you choose the Hu family?" Yi Xue asked suspiciously. The Hu family is just a family of scholars, and it seems that nothing is more prestigious than the officials and gentry in Kao City.

Wen Ruonan covered his mouth with a smile, and said in a low voice, "My sister doesn't know something. Although this Hu family doesn't look prominent, there is an uncle of the same family in the court. He also took good care of the Hu family”

Only then did Yi Xue realize that the Hu family was also a family of officials.

"Sister, when will this poem meeting start and how long will it take?" Yi Xue asked, she really wasn't interested in such a poem meeting, instead she was thinking about the Zhongyuan Festival at home, so she was a little anxious to go home .

Seeing Yi Xue's indifferent appearance, Wen Ruonan was curious. The girls here are all here to save their name or to be a good husband. The families of these rich and high-ranking girls attach great importance to the annual poetry competition.As long as you can become famous at the poetry competition, you can find a good husband, and those young masters will also flock to him.Another reason is that if you can find the good man in your heart here, it is nothing more than looking for a man.But Wang Yixue in front of her didn't seem to be interested, and she became more interested in Yixue immediately.

"Could it be that younger sister is homesick?" Wen Ruonan asked with a smile.

Yi Xue blushed, "My sister made fun of my younger sister."

"Miss, it's time for medicine," the maid said, taking out a pack of medicine powder and a glass of water from the cloth bag beside her.

"Sister, don't be surprised, I brought the medicine with me," Wen Ruonan said in a low voice, then took it, held his head up and drank it, then took a glass of water, put his hands on his heart, his face was a little pale.

Yi Xue thought for a while, then took out a cup of spatial spring water from her bosom, and said, "Sister, I have a holy water left by a wandering doctor here, which is very effective. Seeing that my sister is so uncomfortable, I will give it to my sister. Maybe it can ease the condition." "

Wen Ruonan shook his head, waved his hands and said, "There is no cure for my illness, so I won't bother my sister. Thank you for your concern."

Yi Xue smiled lightly, thinking that Wen Ruonan just didn't believe it, and then said, "Sister, you're welcome, I don't want to meet you today, and I don't mind calling you sister, and share your worries with her, what's the problem? Are you willing to take care of your sister?"

Hearing what Yi Xue said, Wen Ruonan was very polite, and quickly said, "Sister's kindness, how can I not know, since my sister has a heart, I don't dare to take it for granted, thank you my sister."

As he said that, he asked the maid to put it away, and didn't care about the holy water.

Yi Xue said to the servant girl, "This thing can be used twice, if it is effective, please ask my sister to come to Kao Village to find me."

Wen Ruonan said with a smile, "Thank you, sister."

"By the way, my sister just asked about the poetry meeting. I should introduce one or two to my sister." Wen Ruonan said, "This poem will be divided into two sections. Get to know each other, the next paragraph is freehand, in fact, everyone writes poems on the theme of Zhongyuan Festival to make fun of, generally speaking, it will be over by noon."

Yi Xue thought about it, time was still enough, so she waited with peace of mind.It's a pity that no one greeted them during the tea tasting time, and no other girls came to strike up a conversation. Instead, the two of them chatted at ease.

Yi Xue and Wen Ruonan chatted more and more speculatively, and after a while, the two started talking and laughing.It caused those girls to look back from time to time and stare at her in disgust.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the little girl is the young girl of shopkeeper Hu, Hu Yun'er, I think all the sisters are familiar with each other, now is the time for freehand brushwork, the male customers over there have already started to write poems, if the sisters find it interesting, we are also happy Have fun," said a girl with a golden ribbon tied in her bun like a dark cloud, her face pale as a baby, and her skin as snowy as water.

What a beauty, Yi Xue exclaimed, she didn't expect shopkeeper Hu to have such a daughter of a sign, but she had never seen it before.

"Okay, hehe, let's have fun for a while too," a girl said enthusiastically.

"Sister, this Hu Yun'er has been fostered by her uncle's house in the capital since she was a child, and this time she came here specially to host the women's family poetry meeting," Wen Ruonan said with a smile.

Yi Xue was taken aback, no wonder she was young, but she was steady and restrained, without the slightest timidity, it seems that children born to rich families are different.

"Sister, do you want to go up and write poetry?" Yi Xue asked with a smile.

Wen Ruonan shook his head, "I just came here to watch the excitement, mother is afraid that I will be bored at home, so let me relax"

"My sister thinks the same as me, so let's appreciate it," Yi Xue said with a smile.

"Qiu Shui, open the snack, I'll have a long talk with my sister," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Qiu Shui opened the wooden box, and saw several round things inside, some of which were engraved with the word moon, and some were covered with patterns, and the ends were beautiful.

"Sister, what is this? It's so beautiful," Wen Ruonan asked in surprise.

"Sister, this is a moon cake, which symbolizes reunion. There are sweets and dried fruits in it. Sister, you can try it," Yi Xue said.

"My sister is so kind, my sister will not be polite." Wen Ruonan was not as unfamiliar as he had just met, picked up a piece, opened his mouth slightly, and took a small bite.

"It's so crispy and sweet." Wen Ruonan's pretty face turned rosy, and the corners of her brows were affectionate, which was very cute.

"My sister likes it, so let's eat more, and this sister also has a piece," Yi Xue said to the maid.

The maid saw such a beautiful thing earlier, and she also liked it tightly, but the young lady didn't say anything, and she didn't dare to move. She looked at Wen Ruonan, saw her nodding slightly, happily picked up a piece, and put it in her mouth to eat.

"Sister, this thing is called Moon Cake. It's a really good name. I wonder if other stores sell it?" Wen Ruonan asked.

"Miss Wen, this item was made by my lady, so it has never been sold outside," Qiu Shui said with a smile.

Wen Ruonan looked at Qiu Shui, and didn't mind Qiu Shui interrupting the two of them, "My sister is really ingenious, I don't know who can get my sister's thoughts like this."

Yi Xue smiled, "My sister can cancel my younger sister, isn't it just a piece of moon cake, what's so strange, if my sister is interested, why don't I teach my sister?"

Hearing that Yi Xue said that she could teach herself, Wen Ruonan was immediately happy, "Sister, take this seriously."

Yi Xue nodded, "Naturally."

"Please invite my sister to visit my house when you have time," Wen Ruonan said.

"Sister Wen, you guys are so comfortable and fun, hiding here for fun." Suddenly, Hu Yun'er walked up to her.

Wen Ruonan snickered, then stood up, "Sister Yun'er, I haven't seen you for a year, and she's much prettier now. My sister feels inferior."

Women like to be praised, and Hu Yuner's face was full of joy, "My sister was joking, nothing compares to my sister's leisure, my uncle supervises my studies every day, it is very hard."

"Who is this sister?" Hu Yuner saw Yi Xue and asked with a smile, not being bothered by Yi Xue's roughness at all.

"This is sister Wang Yixue," Wen Ruonan hurriedly replied.

"Wang Yixue? Are you Wang Yixue?" Hu Yuner immediately opened her eyes wide and exclaimed.

This exclamation made the girls fighting poetry over there turn their heads in a daze, not knowing what happened.

"Yes, piss is Wang Yixue." Yixue smiled wryly. It seemed that shopkeeper Hu told Hu Yun'er about her affairs.

Wen Ruonan didn't understand what happened, and looked at Hu Yun'er curiously.

"Sister, your song Guan Shanyue is really wonderful, even my uncle was amazed," Hu Yuner said adoringly.

"Guan Shanyue?" Wen Ruonan was taken aback, and then hurriedly asked, "Sister, could it be that the Guan Shanyue that is circulating in the literary world was created by my sister?"

Yi Xue has been in Kao Village all the time, so she naturally doesn't know that her Guan Shanyue has been popular for a long time. If the shopkeeper Hu didn't hide the truth from the author, Yi Xue probably wouldn't stop.Now the only ones who know the author of Guan Shanyue are Shopkeeper Hu's family and Shopkeeper Hu's cousin.

Seeing that she couldn't avoid it, Yi Xue had no choice but to admit, "My little sister did it, but she did it occasionally in her free time. It would be embarrassing for me to do it again."

"Sister, you're being modest now. Now besides Guan Shanyue you made, there is another talented woman who is also famous for her talent." Hu Yun'er is indeed from the capital and knows a lot.

"Sister Yun'er, which family's sister is this?" Coincidentally, Liu Mei walked over and asked with a smile.But when his eyes swept over Yi Xue, his contempt was undisguised.
