Chapter 306
Village head Xia had heard a long time ago that a young man in Nancheng Village opened a village school, and he was a little disdainful at first, after all, age and qualifications were there.

But seeing Ding Shitou's behavior and conversation today, he was secretly surprised, and he believed that the compliments of his daughter and son-in-law were not empty words.

But Jiangxia Village School's strength and qualifications are there, so it is still calm to meet Ding Shitou today.

Ding Shitou also had no intention of making friends with people from Jiangxia Village, so he entered the table after saluting, not being restrained by a table of elders.

Not long after, the banquet started, and everyone toasted and drank. Ding Shitou served the rice and concentrated on eating, except for the first round of serving the cup for a sip.

If the summer floods have not come this year, if the autumn harvest goes well, she has no intention of participating.

It didn't take long for Mr. Xia, surrounded by his two sons and son-in-law, to come out. He didn't greet him at the table, but just stood on the steps outside the open room and gave some speeches.

Of course, the birthday banquet this year will make way for Xia Xiaoxiucai's rejoicing in passing the exam, so the conversation is full of emotions about having two successful sons.

Everyone listened quietly, envious.

Ding Shitou was secretly glad that she had picked up a bowl of rice as soon as she came to the table, and she would not delay what you said at this time.

"Today, this old man has double happiness. I'm very happy. At the suggestion of my friend, I want to play a fun game." The topic suddenly changed by Mr. Xia made everyone look surprised.

Luminous game?

Ding Shitou raised his eyebrows, wondering what kind of game it would be?
Fortunately, Xia Laoxiu is an ancient person, so I don't have so many guesses for you to tantalize, so I will talk about it soon.

"...There are three topics, poetry reciting, fighting against, and archery. Choose the top three for each, and get one tael of silver! You can choose to participate in one, or you can participate in all three."

The game is very simple, as long as you know how to do it, then the focus is on participating.

But everyone talked happily when they heard it.

Ding Shitou opened his ears and listened, but found that everyone only had expectations for archery. Why?
Thinking about it carefully, I couldn't help but laugh. The people sitting in this yard are all farmers, so it seems easier to shoot arrows.

As for reciting poems and fighting against each other, it is the business of scholars, and only friends of scholars will participate.

"The game is meant to add to the fun, and the most important thing is to participate. It's eclectic. If you want to participate, just come." Xia Xiaoxiu said loudly with high spirits.

But having said that, no one dared to get up for a while, and they were a little embarrassed.

"Master Ding, since you are the master of Nancheng Village, why don't you make a start so that everyone can actively participate, what do you think?" Seeing that no one dared to participate, Mrs. Xia immediately went to Ding Shitou's table to invite.

"Ding Shi didn't study much, so he didn't dare to make a fool of himself in front of his seniors, so let's try archery." Ding Shitou stood up with a smile, and walked to an archery target set aside by the bamboo fence outside the courtyard gate.

According to visual inspection, the distance may be ten meters.

I didn't expect that the scholar's family still has this thing. Is it for teaching children to ride and shoot?

Li Sheng stood aside holding the bow and arrow. Ding Shitou glanced at him, took the bow and arrow and checked it to make sure that there was no tampering with it, so he drew the bow and nocked the arrow.

Zheng!Zheng!Zheng!
Three consecutive arrows shot into the red heart.

There was an uproar all around, followed by crackling applause, and the discussion was like a wave of sound.

"You're showing your ugliness!" Ding Shitou handed back his bow, and walked back to the courtyard modestly with his fists clasped.

"I didn't expect you to have such a strong arm. I'm afraid you will start, and no one will participate." Xia Xiaoxiu glanced at Ding Shitou unhappily.

Getting you started is not about showing off!
