Chapter 101 The Poetry Festival ends

It was approaching noon, and the poetry meeting had come to an end. This time in the Xu Mansion Poetry Meeting, the person who shone the most was undoubtedly Su Chen.

Originally, Su Chen came here with Bai Susu just to make soy sauce and go through the formalities. He didn't pay much attention to the poems and articles discussed by the talented people around him, and just tasted Xu's fine fruit wine, cakes and dried fruits.

Su Chen had no intention of being in the limelight, but that Mr. Hou jumped out and insisted on forcing him to write another poem, otherwise he would suspect that he was a fake and not the real Su Yixuan, and other talents were adding fuel to the fire, leaving him with no way out.

, which completely pissed him off and he didn’t want to keep a low profile anymore.

It is definitely unrealistic for him to create new poems by himself. Su Chen's talent in ancient Chinese is not inferior to that of those talented people who have studied the Spring and Autumn Anthology of the Book of Rites for more than ten years. Therefore, he can only use the Song Dynasty

Famous lyrics responded, thus causing everyone's surprise and helplessness.

Fortunately, the poetry meeting was over, and Su Chen finally got away from the various inquiries and advice from the talented scholars. His head was buzzing and he was about to explode.

Before leaving, Xu Cainv took the initiative to see him out of the house, and couldn't help but extend an invitation on the way.

"Mr. Su, where do you usually stay in Runzhou? Is it convenient for you to tell Qingwan? If you have time, you can make an appointment with me to discuss poetry and articles."

"Ahem!" Su Chen was almost frightened and refused directly: "This is not very convenient. I may stay in Runzhou for a short time and then travel around the world. I'm afraid we won't have the chance to meet each other."

When Xu Qingwan heard this, she felt a little disappointed and asked implicitly: "Then tomorrow..."

"Maybe I'll leave tomorrow!" Su Chen blocked his words. He didn't want to accept the appointment. Besides having to put on makeup and dress up next time, it would be troublesome. The most important thing is that besides being able to recite some poems, if he was like Han Xizai who asked him about Tang Quanwen last time,

He was speechless when communicating like this in parallel prose.

In Xu Cainv's disappointed eyes, Su Chen quickly left the gate of Xu Mansion, not wanting to come back again.

Although Xu Qingwan is unparalleled in beauty and talent, this kind of artistic young woman often has many things to do.

Bai Susu smiled softly when she saw his escaping attitude. Although there was nothing she could do about him, it was in line with her little thoughts.

The Bai family's carriage slowly left. Xu Qingwan stood at the door, watching Mr. Su get into the car of the eldest lady of the Bai family and leave. She felt melancholy and a little reluctant to leave. Although they had just parted, she was looking forward to the next time.

meet again.

………

Inside the carriage.

Su Chen looked happy because he had won 700 taels of silver from Mr. Ding through the couplets. At that time, he had clearly told Ding Yin to send the silver to Bairun Building for storage after the poetry meeting.

Ding Yin's head-to-head confrontation.

It is estimated that the person Ding Yin hates the most at this time is "Su Yixuan". Su Chen feels that it is better to avoid showing up in that identity in the future.

He leaned against the carriage and hummed a tune, which was "See Through" by a later host named He:

"Yihong Courtyard was stationed in front of the Yanyu Building. I stopped at the steps and did not stop me. I walked further and further away. I was drunk with beauty, so I broke the strings. If you were me, would you be in front of the common people... Others laugh at me for being too crazy

, I laugh so hard that others can’t see through..."

"Okay, okay, just hum. Why are you still singing? What a weird tune and lyrics!" Peng Qingqing stopped Su Chen and continued to sing a cappella.

Su Chen didn't take it seriously and smiled and said: "I'm so happy today. I won 700 taels of silver for no reason. That's a full 700 taels of silver. The pressure in life has been relieved immediately."

Bai Susu chuckled and said: "You put in a lot of effort to match seven couplets, but only won seven hundred taels. Qingqing won a thousand taels of silver from Miss Murong because of a small bet at the poetry meeting."

Su Chen looked at Peng Qingqing dumbfounded and asked, "What's going on?"

Bai Susu explained it immediately. After Su Chen heard the whole story, he secretly sighed at the huge gap!

"You should share half of your one thousand taels with me. I helped you win it!" Su Chen made a suggestion... to share the money.

"No way!" Peng Qingqing snorted, raised her arrogant head to one side, and rolled her eyes at him. One moment she was a scholar, and the next moment she was a philistine, and spat: "Why do you love money so much!"

Su Chen sighed: "Because I have been poor, I know how uncomfortable it is to have no money. Besides, if a man has no money, it is like a dish without salt, which means it lacks some flavor!"

Peng Qingqing pouted and said: "What a twisted theory! Men will become evil if they have money. I think it's better for you to have less money!"

Su Chen was too lazy to discuss the dialectical relationship between men and money with him. She was not his mother-in-law anyway, so there was no need to discuss these philosophies of life.

Bai Susu looked at Su Chen and asked, "Yansuo Pondliu, do you have the second line?"

Su Chen nodded: "Well, how about Shenzhen Teppanyaki?"

Bai Susu was stunned for a moment and murmured: "Where is Shenzhen? What is Teppanyaki?"

Su Chen smiled and explained: "Shenzhen is a place very far south. It is probably still a small fishing village, a barbarian land. Teppanyaki is a very delicious cooking method!"

Hearing that it was delicious, Peng Qingqing's eyes lit up and she said, "Su Chen, we made money today, so we should celebrate it well. Can you cook and make us Teppanyaki?"

"No!" Su Chen shook his head and refused. Just now his suggestion of dividing the money was rejected by her, and now he also rejected her willfully.

"Are you okay?" Peng Qingqing's voice was crisp, she put her jade hand on his shoulder and asked with a strange smile on her face.

"Well, let me think about it!" Su Chen felt the strength on his shoulders and consciously wanted to think about it again.

Peng Qingqing smiled as brightly as a peach blossom and said: "What are you thinking about? It's just a meal, don't worry about my mother-in-law!"

"Okay! Come to my house for a barbecue in the evening, and make a teppanyaki on the way!"

Su Chen immediately gave in. He had always believed in a truth: a good man will not fight with a woman, and a gentleman will not suffer the immediate consequences!

Before he was able to subdue this rouge horse, Peng Nuxia, it would be better for him not to fight her.

Words should be spoken softly, and deeds should be done firmly. The ancients said this is true!

Bai Susu was already used to Su Chen's character, and didn't care whether he had the integrity of a man in front of Peng Qingqing. Anyway, she had a share in going to Su's house to have a meal, but she was happy to see the two bickering and playing tricks there!

After Peng Qingqing happily argued with Su Chen for a while, she suddenly asked, "What should we eat for lunch?"

Bai Susu lifted up a strand of black hair scattered on her temples and stuffed it behind her ears, and said, "Let's go to Bairunlou to eat. Let the chef cook more signature dishes."

Su Chen was overjoyed when he heard this. He looked at Bai Susu's face and said with a smile: "Of course that's good. Bairun Restaurant is one of the major restaurants in Runzhou. I haven't been there yet. We agreed that all the expenses at noon will be charged to Bai Dasu."

Miss, the bill is free!"

Bai Susu smiled softly, and said with a smile: "Well, you can eat as much as you want. Whatever ingredients you need, you can bring them back to Su Zhai. When dinner time comes, Qingqing and I will go there together."
