After opening the door of the elegant room on the third floor of Bairun Building, I looked out from the inside. In an instant, I saw Bai Susu's peerless appearance. Liang Youcai, who opened the door, was dumbfounded. He looked straight at Bai Susu with his eyes, and he was astonished.

For a moment, the appearance was like a fairy or a fantasy, and it was engraved in the bottom of Liang Youcai's heart, and it could not go away.

"Aunt... girl..."

"Thank you!" Bai Susu said softly, stepped into the room, glanced at the dozen or so talented people and beauties present, and finally her eyes fell on Xu Qingwan, she smiled and said: "I heard that Sister Xu is here, Su Su

I came here specially to meet you, and I asked the chef to add two of the restaurant's signature dishes to you, free of charge."

Xu Wanqing stood up, smiled at Bai Susu and said, "Susu, thank you for your trouble."

Bai Susu said politely: "As I said last time, as long as Sister Xu comes to Bairun Tower, she will definitely be treated as an honored guest. This banquet will be discounted at 20%. I hope that all the gentlemen and young ladies will return home with a happy mood."

Xu Wanqing smiled and expressed her gratitude. All the talents and beauties present here also felt that Bai Runlou was doing this to give them a lot of face.

"Who is this girl?" A handsome young man wearing a light green shirt asked.

Xu Wanqing introduced him: "This girl Bai Susu is a direct daughter of the Bai family. Because of her outstanding abilities, she was promoted by the Bai family to serve as the family decision-maker. Don't think that Miss Bai is a woman, but women are not inferior to men. She has already taken charge."

Most of the Bai family's business, including Bai Run Building, is also supervised by Miss Bai, who is the owner here."

Most of the talented and beautiful people present, such as Hou Shijie, the talented daughter of the Yan family, etc., all know Bai Susu, and even if they have never met her, they have heard her name.

Only two Jinshi scholars who came to Runzhou from Jinling heard about it for the first time, and their eyes lit up. They felt that this woman was not only extremely beautiful and graceful, but also had such wealth. It was a pity that she was a business woman, so these two

As a scholar who is proud of his talents, he looks down upon him a little bit.

But precisely because Miss Bai was not the daughter of a high-ranking official and powerful person, the two of them felt that they had a sense of superiority. Maybe they could show off their talents well and impress the woman with their talents, causing a good story.

"It turns out that it's Miss Bai, Chen Bo below. Last year's new scholar, this time I was ordered to come to Runzhou to fill the vacancy and serve as the Secretary of the Governor's Office. From now on, I will stay in Runzhou." Fang Chenbo handed over his hand and behaved,

It seems polite.

Bai Susu nodded slightly, not caring about it in her heart, and said politely: "I've met Mr. Fang!"

Peng Qingqing also came in behind her, smiled at Xu Wanqing, said hello, and called Sister Xu. As for the other talents and beauties, she was very indifferent and didn't pay much attention to them.

Another Mr. Zhao, when he saw the two beauties coming in, got up with great interest and introduced himself: "I am Zhao Yu, a native of Jinling. I was the second-class Jinshi in the same year as Brother Fang. This time I came from Jinling to accompany Brother Fang."

, I sent him to take office. I took the opportunity to visit the scenic spots and historic sites in Runzhou, feel the local customs and customs, and write down a few poems and travel notes."

Peng Qingqing looked at him and asked, "Mr. Zhao, do you know how to write a story about Green Forest Ranger?"

Zhao Yu said awkwardly: "Those stories about strange people and gibberish, and vulgar scripts are mostly written by the down-and-out scholars who lived in Sunshan. They are really not worthy of being elegant, and I rarely read about them!"

Peng Qingqing heard that he looked down on the storybooks and knight-errant stories, and curled her lips and said: "Legendary stories are just vulgar things. If the story is wonderful and the writing is rich, it can also show the feelings of family and country, and even cultivate sentiment!"

"The girl was joking. Legendary stories are mostly stories about down-and-out scholars and fox fairies, or the love affairs of brothel singers. How can they cultivate sentiments?" Zhao Yu retorted, not recognizing the positive role of legendary novels.

This Zhao Yu's thinking is also a common value among ancient scholars. The scripts were mostly used by Wazi storytellers and were usually written by scholars who failed in the imperial examination to support their families. Even many famous works such as "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin", "Dream of Red Mansions", etc.

, this was often the case. Even if it was a best-seller at the time, orthodox literati would still not accept it, and it was designated as "vulgar literature".

What they respect is Confucianism, and literature is used to convey Tao. Only poems to express aspirations and beautiful articles are orthodox, which is called "elegant literature". Since the legends of the Tang Dynasty, the scripts of the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and the Ming and Qing Dynasties,

Short stories, as well as rap literature, etc., have been developed in urban society and are closest to the popular language of the people, but the authors are not regarded as true literati.

In 1902, the twenty-eighth year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty, Liang Qichao published "On the Relationship between Novels and Mass Governance" in the first issue of "New Novel". The article exclaimed, "If you want to renovate the people of a country, you must first renovate the country's novels!"

"At this time, novels were absorbed by traditional literature and gradually became the orthodox position of literature.

Peng Qingqing likes to listen to knight-errant novels, so naturally she doesn't agree with Zhao Yu's statement, and hums: "That's not necessarily true. A talented man once told me that those who are righteous are mostly dog-slayers, and those who are unkind are mostly scholars. Even in the green forest,

There are also heroic knights with lofty aspirations! You can also write knight-errant novels with ups and downs to express your emotions and describe the emotions of a great knight who serves the country and the people!"

Most of these words were the thoughts that Su Chen had instilled in her yesterday. After Peng Qingqing wrote them down, she didn't forget half of them. She was not good at memorizing poems, but she could remember novels and stories, which were interesting and interesting, so she remembered them all.

Bai Susu, Xu Wanqing, Governor Shi Qianjin, the eldest daughter of the Yan family and other women present were all a little surprised when they saw Peng Qingqing say such a well-founded statement.

They used to think that Peng Qingqing didn't like reading, not to mention illiterate, but it wasn't too different, but now it was clear and convincing.

Zhao Yu's face changed, and he said with a bit of displeasure: "Most of the people who are righteous are dog-slaughters, and most of the people who are unfaithful are scholars. What the girl said is looking down on us scholars."

Peng Qingqing is also a shrewd woman. She smiled and said: "The person who said this to me is a talented scholar. He said it!"

Zhao Yu clasped his fists and said coldly: "I dare to ask you, girl, what is his surname? If you see him on the spot, I will think that I do not represent scholars, so I will slap him in the face and insult the scholars of our generation!"

"That's right, who is this arrogant?"

The other young masters present were also filled with indignation.

Bai Susu was worried that if Qingqing said Su Chen's name, it would cause him great trouble and make him an enemy of the entire scholar community. He would no longer have to hang out with her, so he hurriedly winked at her.

Peng Qingqing rolled her black and white eyes and said with a smile: "Then you will be disappointed. After the man finished speaking, he disappeared without leaving his name."

"Hmph, I think he is probably just a butcher, exaggerating his own status and belittling scholars!" Zhao Yu was indignant.

At this time, Xu Wanqing spoke up to smooth things over, leading to another topic and asking: "Sister Su Su, did Su Yixuan, the talented man who wrote Qu Yu Guan that day, look for you again?"

Fang Chenbo then said: "Yes, this Su Yixuan is a talented person in Jinling, but I and Brother Zhao have never heard of it in Jinling City. Can you please invite him out so that we can meet him? We are all talented people and we can communicate on the spot.

Poetry.”

Zhao Yuzheng was so angry at the sentence "most of the betrayers are scholars" and had nowhere to vent. At this time, he pointed the finger at the "Su Yixuan" whom he had never met and said: "Whether Su Yixuan is a talented man or not, just write a poem for me in person."

Just wait and see. If you just heard a song from somewhere and pretend to be a scholar, wouldn't it be ridiculous?"

Bai Susu glanced at the two of them coldly and said: "What a coincidence, he came to visit yesterday and saw me admiring flowers and plants and playing on the swing in the courtyard, so he wrote a spring scene poem. Susu's skills were limited, so he happened to take it out.
