Chapter 62 Seaside
After checking in at the inn, An Rui and Liu Boxing, a few energetic teenagers, couldn't help but go to the beach to play.
The newly joined Chen Shaoxuan obviously gets along better with An Rui and Liu Boxing, two extroverted teenagers of similar age.
Seeing the three people impatiently getting on a carriage, An Xin and the others could only shake their heads helplessly, and got back on the carriage and headed towards the beach.
The weather is very good today. The sunshine shines on the sea, like a layer of gold, and the waves are sparkling.
Everyone got off the carriage at the beach, stepped on the soft sand, and looked around.
The blue sea surges with rolling waves, and the waves beat against the rocks on the shore. Looking into the distance, the sky and the sea are connected together without boundaries.
An Xin took a deep breath. The fresh air made him feel relaxed and happy.
An Rui, Liu Boxing and Chen Shaoxuan, with their youthful hearts, have already started to let themselves go and have fun on the beach.
Li Ziyu wore a light white robe, Leng Xiangbai wore a blue Confucian shirt, Zhu Shijing wore a royal blue straight robe, Jiang Zhou wore a purple dress, and Kong Xun wore a black round-necked brocade robe.
The five young men, who will reach adulthood in a few years, have tall and straight figures, handsome looks and outstanding temperament.
Even Mr. Gongsun Jin, who came with them, couldn't help but admire them secretly.
If this group of outstanding young people were also knowledgeable, they would be truly rare young talents.
Mr. Gongsun Jin: "I heard that you are the principal of Wanhua Academy in Lin'an County. These students look pretty good. Did you trick them here?"
"What do you mean I cheated it?" An Xin smiled brightly at the shrewd old man, "I obviously picked it up."
"???"
The few people who were picked up glanced at their own hill chief, asking how come they didn't know when the items were picked up.
Old Mr. Gongsun Jin choked and thought to himself that this little girl was really sharp-tongued.
He turned his head and looked at the turbulent sea, reciting casually: "The tide swirls the Bohai Harbor, and the surging ocean adds to the vast waves."
When An Xin heard this first line of the couplet, a line naturally came to his mind: "The river and the sea moisten the Jingu River, and the river flows swiftly and violently."
When Mr. Gongsun Jin saw An Xin come up with the second line so quickly, he was surprised for a moment, then praised with delight, "Good, very good."
An Xin opened her innocent little eyes, and she accidentally said the second half of the sentence in her mind.
How could it be bad? The system forced the entire knowledge base of great scholars it had collected into her mind.
If she can't even match a couplet like this, how can the system allow her to complete her task of teaching and educating people?
Mr. Gongsun Jin wanted to test the knowledge of the young female headmaster An Xin, so he came up with another couplet: "Looking at Pengtai from the East China Sea, the scenery is the same, but the mountains and rivers are different."
An Xin didn't say anything this time. She came here to have fun, not to show off her literary talent. Besides, the man in front of her was not a handsome young man. She had no interest in an old man with wrinkles all over his face.
Old Master Gongsun was so angry at An Xin's disgusted expression that he smiled, "Girl, come up with a couplet for this first couplet. In the astronomy competition tomorrow, how about I let you be a judge?!"
An Xin tilted his head and touched his chin. With his clear eyes, he carefully looked the sturdy old man up and down. "I guessed that you were extraordinary, but I didn't expect that you were so extraordinary that you could randomly point out someone to be the judge of the Baichuan Academy's literary gathering."
"Since you invited me so sincerely, I will give you this honor. The judge, Mr. Benshan, has accepted it."
Li Ziyu and Leng Xiangbai saw their chief's arrogant and cocky look and couldn't help but shook their heads, with the corners of their mouths raised in a smile.
Mr. Gongsun was startled. Although he had no intention of fooling the little girl, it seemed that his invitation was not that sincere.
In fact, she could also refuse it for a while to see how sincere her invitation was.
“……” There are sincere ones, but definitely not many.
"I left my poems and poems in the south. Although my ambitions are small, everyone, young and old, knows my name." After finishing the second line, An Xin quickened his pace and slipped away.
The scenery here is so pleasant. She finally came to the seaside, and she didn't want to waste her time writing couplets with this old man.
Old Mr. Gongsun Jin was surprised that a woman like An Xin could have such outstanding quick thinking and knowledge. He smiled and found a reef to sit down, watching the group of young people walk towards the beach.
He whispered, "I originally thought that the little girl was just kind and polite like my wife said, but I didn't expect that she actually had some real talent and knowledge."
Old Mr. Gongsun Jin looked toward the sea with deep eyes, thinking, there are only a few judges in each session, and their preferences have been figured out by other principals who often come to participate in the literary gathering.
Although it was a bit casual to let a little girl be the judge, it is undeniable that it is a good idea to change the judges.
Gongsun Jin had met many learned women in his life, but he did not have the same contemptuous and prejudiced view of An Xin, the female headmaster, as other literati did.
An Xin walked along the beach, the waves surged onto the beach from time to time, chasing each other, and rushing one wave after another.
"for you."

An Xin looked up and saw Kong Xun's fair and slender palm handing over a delicate spiral shell with crisscross brown stripes and circles.
"It's not easy to come to the beach and pick up such a beautiful shell. You can take it back as a souvenir." An Xin lowered his head and scanned the surroundings. "I'll look for it myself, maybe I can find it."
Kong Xun pursed his lips and looked at An Xin with lost eyes.
Li Ziyu and Leng Xiangbai looked at each other and their expressions darkened. Their headmaster confiscated the shell from Kong Xun's hand, which made the two of them relax their brows.
A few stingy students thought that the young principal was their principal, and wondered why Kong Xun always surrounded her.
The two slowed down their pace, pretending to accidentally insert themselves between Kong Xun and An Xin, and they walked side by side along the beach.
Under the blue sky, seabirds circle over the rough sea.
An Xin heard the clean and hearty laughter of a young man coming from the front. He looked up and saw An Rui, Liu Boxing and Chen Shaoxuan. Their clothes and shoes were wet by the sea water because they ran too close to the beach.
Although it's not as cold here as in the north in late autumn, An Xin is still worried that they will catch a cold if they have too much fun because their clothes and shoes are wet.
So he shouted, "That's enough, you three. I seem to remember that you only brought a change of clothes this time, but no shoes. Do you want to walk on your own when you go back?"
An Rui: "Ahhh, it seems my cousin is right. We don't have any shoes to change into when we go back. Do we really have to carry our feet?"
The three stupid teenagers just remembered this then, and looked at each other, then looked down at their wet shoes, dumbfounded.
Zhu Shijing and Jiang Zhou took a look at their shoes splashed by the sea water, and to show that they were thoughtful, they simultaneously moved a few steps away from the beach.
Keeping a distance from the waves that rolled in afterwards showed that they had no intention of doing anything stupid like welcoming the waves.
On the other side, Qingfeng found a rock to sit down with an impatient look on her face. Lingyun stood not far from her, looking fiercely at Jixiang who wanted to follow her.
Since arriving at the beach, Jixiang has been trying to get close to Qingfeng, with a hint of frivolity in his expression, which makes Qingfeng, who is always steady and cautious, very disgusted.
It's just that she is used to being thoughtful in her work and doesn't want to cause any trouble at this time and make everyone unhappy.
