Chapter 330 Grand Literary Gathering
The students of the county school cheered and were excited.
They had known the news for a long time and had been looking forward to it for a long time, and finally they got to see their idol.
A grand literary gathering was held in the county school, where the masters discussed and exchanged ideas, recited poems and composed couplets, and the students sat or stood, listening intently and attentively.
Those who can have a seat here are all the best among them. Although Liang Mingxuan is just a student, he is the youngest student with outstanding talent and bright future, so naturally he also has a seat here.
The second half of the literary gathering was the time for the talented scholars to express their talents by writing poems and essays, which they enjoyed seeing and hearing. Everyone immediately became more excited, full of energy, and secretly exerted their efforts, trying to overwhelm others and take the lead.
If the poems or essays you write can catch the eyes of the big guys and get their praise and comments, then it will be different immediately. It means that you are much better than your classmates, which is a great thing that will make you proud and confident.
Everyone competed with each other and presented their most proud works.
Liang Mingxuan also did it, but what he did was different from everyone else. He sang praises to his sister-in-law very sincerely and from the bottom of his heart, expressing his gratitude and respect for her.
He was young, old, had outstanding academic performance, and was good-looking. He was simply a chosen scholar, the mascot of Qingshan County School, and a living signboard. As soon as he arrived, the dean took him to introduce him to Mr. Songquan and others.
When Mr. Songquan and others heard his story, they were all amazed and moved.
Such poor students with miserable backgrounds, high talents and hard work have always been the most beloved and valued objects of the big guys.
Therefore, the big names may not read other people’s poems and essays, but they will definitely take a look at Liang Mingxuan’s works.
"What a good kid! Such a sincere heart!"
"Yes, at such a young age, he knows how to repay kindness."
"This article is also very well written. I was very moved after reading it."
"It's really good."
Liang Mingxuan stood up and bowed to the elders. "My sister-in-law has given so much to me and is extremely loyal to me. I respect her like a mother. Moreover, she is extremely intelligent. The threshing machine, windmill, water mill, potatoes, and sweet potatoes were all donated by her. I am very proud of her. My sister-in-law has achieved what she has today through her own hard work. I am also grateful to her for what I have today."
County Magistrate Lu couldn't help but nod and sigh, and casually told everyone present some of Zhichun's deeds. Mr. Songquan and others were amazed and praised him one after another.
"She is truly a remarkable woman!"
"She is indeed a virtuous, intelligent, and loyal woman."
"So those potatoes and sweet potatoes were all donated by her. My children and my wife at home really like sweet sweet potatoes, haha."
"It's the same in our family. I love spicy and sour potato shreds the most. They're appetizing. I can eat two bowls of rice with just one dish."
"Chicken stewed with potatoes is a real treat. Have you ever tried it?"
"Stir-fried potato chips are great too! I love potatoes cooked any way I like them."
"I prefer to cook sweet potato soup and add a pinch of chives. It's fragrant and sweet."
"Steaming and crushing sweet potatoes to make sticky rice cakes is also a great way to make them."
The big guys were talking at once, laughingly discussing what delicious things to make with sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Last year, they harvested so much that Magistrate Lu took it all away in the name of the government with a wave of his hand. In fact, it was not enough to divide it up, but these big guys still had ways to get some if they wanted to try something new, but it was not much. Their families also wanted to keep some for seeds, so there was even less.
I can only try it for two or three meals.
Look, now that I'm talking about it, I'm getting more and more greedy.
The county academy president laughed heartily. "Mr. Songquan and all the gentlemen are in for a treat today. Our Mingxuan's sister-in-law, Madam Xu, specially sent over two large baskets of sweet potatoes and potatoes a few days ago, saying it's a rare visit for you gentlemen, and it's an honor for Qingshan County, so please enjoy some of them! Hahaha! Madam Xu is truly low-key. She even covered the baskets when she delivered them this morning without a word, without fanfare or fanfare, not even a single unnecessary word."
Mr. Songquan and others were very happy and laughed and praised.
For people of their status, roasted whole lamb and three-piece duck are just a matter of asking for them, but sweet potatoes and potatoes are not something they can buy whenever they want.
It's rare for Madam Xu to be so low-key. If the dean hadn't mentioned it today, they would have just eaten it without even realizing it was her who provided it.
Mr. Songquan praised: "Mrs. Xu is truly a good person. Your name is Mingxuan, right? You are grateful and repay kindness, and you are a good boy! Study hard, and think and ask questions when you don't understand anything. I look forward to the day when I can hear the voice of a young phoenix more clear than that of an old one!"
"Yes, Mr. Songquan's teachings are engraved in my heart and I dare not let him down."
"Okay, okay, haha! I liked you the moment I saw you. This short article is also very well written. Do you have anything to say? Feel free to say it."
The students looked at Liang Mingxuan with envy or jealousy, and they couldn't wait to speak for him.
What kind of luck is this!
Mr. Songquan is asking for a gift! If he wants a pair of words of encouragement from Mr. Songquan, he will be rich!
They hated it so much, why didn't they have such a capable sister-in-law? Without a sister-in-law, anyone among their parents and brothers would do as long as they had the ability.
Unexpectedly, Liang Mingxuan bowed respectfully and solemnly requested, "Mr. Songquan, could you please write a eulogy for my sister-in-law? She is loyal to my brother and has devoted herself to me selflessly. I have nothing to repay her with yet. If she could receive a few words of praise from you, it would be a great honor for me."
Everyone was stunned.
He didn't ask for such a good opportunity for himself, but instead asked Mr. Songquan to write a eulogy for his sister-in-law?
This is Mr. Songquan!
Is he stupid?
Some students, like Dou Zhongli, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were hoping he'd do something stupid, hoping Mr. Songquan would agree immediately. This fool, who didn't know the importance of things, deserved to never get ahead.
Lord Lu, the county schoolmaster, and the other elders exchanged glances quietly, all of them sighing in their hearts: This child is truly filial and truly knows how to repay kindness! At such a young age, this is truly rare, truly rare!
Mr. Songquan nodded and sighed, "Since that's the case, I will fulfill your filial piety."
"Thank you, Mr. Songquan!"
"Haha, no need to be polite, sit down."
"yes."
Liang Mingxuan was overjoyed and extremely happy.
Once Mr. Songquan's praise comes out, it becomes another amulet.
Who was Mr. Songquan? How could he be wrong in praising someone? If the Qi family dared to act recklessly, they wouldn't be afraid of the title of "Mrs. Shanci" bestowed by the Emperor. But if they dared to ignore Mr. Songquan's praise, the local scholars would drown them in spit.
Mr. Songquan praised his sister-in-law for her loyalty and said that if the Qi family dared to force her to marry, they might as well give it a try.
He has been waiting for today.
