Chapter 129 He Doesn't Like to Be in the Spotlight
Seeing that he was of outstanding appearance and noble character, she secretly admired him and thought that if she could win his favor, it would be of great benefit.
County Magistrate Zhang and others all applauded and echoed. As soon as President Meng opened his mouth, the students in the academy couldn't wait to perform.
One person comes up with the first line of a couplet, and the other person comes up with the second line. The couplet should be appropriate to the Dragon Boat Festival.
If there were any that were particularly exquisite, everyone would praise and comment on them.
"Bao Ai Si Gentleman", "Yi Pu Zhu Saint"
"Qu Zi's Ode to the Beautiful Lady of Fragrant Grass" and "Poems of Doctor Bing Xin Jie Yu"
“The pear blossoms in the pond on Dragon Boat Festival can speak” and “The willow birds on the bank in the summer morning can speak”
“.”
Xie Jingrong listened to what everyone had said and found a few sentences that he found pleasing to his ears. He smiled and casually praised them, which made everyone even more excited and eager to join in.
Shao Liulang had done it and done it right several times, but they were all mediocre and did not attract much praise or comment from the public. Naturally, he did not attract the attention of County Magistrate Qiao and Xie Jingrong above him.
He couldn't help feeling secretly discouraged.
However, when he thought of his fifth cousin next to him who had done nothing and done nothing right, he became more spirited and mentally balanced.
No matter what, he is much stronger than Shao Yunduan.
Shao Liulang rekindled his fighting spirit and continued to search his brains out.
In fact, Shao Yunduan didn't do it because he was simply unwilling to do it.
He was not one to seek the limelight.
What's more, Mr. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao, who were sitting above him, didn't like his wife, and Mrs. Qiao was even more malicious. In this case, the lower his profile and the less sense of existence he had, the better.
Unexpectedly, Shao Yunduan wanted to keep a low profile, but someone wouldn't allow it.
Qiao Wei was "unintentionally" bullied by Qiao Xuan, and she was holding her breath.
But she dug the hole herself and fell into it herself. She still has to save face. There is no way she can get back at Qiao Xuan for this matter.
She was a person who couldn't stand being taken advantage of, so naturally she took her anger out on Shao Yunduan.
All the students in the academy were competing with each other, making couplets and matching them enthusiastically, but Shao Yunduan was the only one who remained silent from beginning to end.
Qiao Wei naturally didn't know that Shao Yunduan did it on purpose, she just thought that Shao Yunduan didn't know how to do it and didn't understand.
Oh no, since he is an idiot who knows nothing, she certainly can't let him go easily. She must watch him make a fool of himself in front of everyone.
This would mean that Qiao Xuan would make a fool of herself in public.
This finally relieved her hatred!
Qiao Wei rolled her eyes and whispered a few words to the maid Fendie standing behind her. Fendie couldn't help but glance at Qiao Xuan, nodded, and quietly went to find County Magistrate Zhang to convey Qiao Wei's words.
County Magistrate Zhang was in a difficult situation.
Although he didn't know much about the county lord's household affairs, he could tell a thing or two by looking at the fact that the county lord had two concubines but they had little presence.
He had also heard about the eldest lady's temper.
The eldest lady ordered the maid to pass on the message, asking him to make the second lady's husband make a couplet, and also asked him to make a couplet to embarrass the second lady's husband. What the hell is this?
He is a county magistrate, how could he embarrass the son-in-law of the county magistrate in public?
If he is stumped, will the county magistrate look good?
But if he didn't do it, the young lady was narrow-minded, and Mrs. Qiao always doted on her. Even if she couldn't find him, his wife and daughter would probably be in trouble.
County Magistrate Zhang had no choice but to finally decide to do as he was told.
He just laughed and looked at Shao Yunduan: "Shao Xiucai has always been very talented, but I haven't heard him speak today. Why don't we ask Shao Xiucai to write a couplet to liven things up?"
