Scholars unparalleled

After a while, when Lu Chensheng left and disappeared, the two continued to play chess.

"The kid looks all right."

"Well, it does look pretty good, but I don't know how talented it is."

"Try another day?"

"We'll have a look then..."

...

"Does my uncle also like playing chess?"

Xiaoyu looked at her son-in-law. These days, her son-in-law has nothing to do, so he especially likes to watch the two play chess.

"It's an interest."

Lu Chensheng thought for a while, and then responded.

Previously, Lu Chensheng played chess by himself, but now he saw other people playing chess, and the moves and routines were all different from those played by Lu Chensheng before.

After seeing it, I naturally felt that it was interesting. Looking at it these days, I have gained a lot.

"Is that young master's chess skills better than those of the two families?"

Xiaoyu seemed to have a kind of blind admiration for Lu Chensheng, and now she said something full of expectation.

Lu Chensheng touched Xiaoyu's little head when he heard the words, "Playing chess is just to pass the time, it's a hobby, and it's meaningless if you have to compete."

Xiaoyu seemed to understand, but after nodding, she led Lu Chensheng home quickly.

"Grandpa, today I'm thinking about the dishes taught by my uncle, and it's very good. My uncle will go home and try it. When the young lady comes back, I can eat it!"

Xiaoyu stopped talking about playing chess, and instead talked about the dishes she cooked today.

Lu Chensheng smiled when he heard the words, and followed the other party back to the White Mansion.

Chapter 236 Lianyun Poetry Society

In Chunnan City, the atmosphere here is quite peaceful.

When Lu Chensheng often wandered around the city, he saw that the people had a very leisurely feeling. The people in the city seemed to be living pretty well.

At least Lu Chensheng seldom saw beggars, and the common people were well dressed.

The sun became more and more fiery, and a lot of fruits gradually grew on the streets.

It looks very delicious, but Lu Chensheng is shy in his pocket, and the two taels of silver he earned before is still saving a little, lest he might spend it all someday.

For such a situation, Lu Chensheng was really helpless.

He was short of money and couldn't even afford a chess board.

In the yard, Lu Chensheng planted a few more peach trees.

Xiaoyu is also a little puzzled that her uncle likes to plant peach trees so much.

I just heard from my uncle that by next spring, these peach trees will grow peach blossoms, which are very beautiful with a little pink.

After listening to this description, Xiaoyu couldn't help feeling a little bit of anticipation for the scene when the peach trees bloom next year.

"Uncle, the Lianyun Poetry Club is going to organize a poetry meeting recently, do you want to go and see it?"

Xiaoyu stuck her hands to her chin, saw that her uncle seemed to be drawing something, and asked a question out of boredom.

Lu Chensheng shook his head when he heard the words, "What is your uncle going to do? His poetry club didn't invite your uncle."

"But, isn't this kind of poetry meeting open to talented scholars? You don't have to be invited to attend."

Xiaoyu was a little puzzled when he heard this.

Previously, my uncle said that he could write poetry, so why would he let this chance go.

"Besides, there are many talented women in the poetry fair."

As she said that, Xiaoyu's expression became more and more serious.

Lu Chensheng was startled when he heard this, and looked at Xiaoyu a little bit dumbfounded.

"Why, you still want your uncle to find a new love?"

Xiaoyu was stunned when she heard the words, and then quickly waved her hands, "No, I just think my uncle is boring every day, and I should actually meet some people."

Xiaoyu was a little uneasy, but seeing her uncle, she seemed to have nothing to do every day.

After thinking about it, I also felt that if my uncle knew some people, the situation would be better.

Lu Chensheng was taken aback when he heard the words, and then smiled slightly after glancing at Xiaoyu, "Your uncle has no shortage of acquaintances, but only lacks someone to talk to."

Short of someone to talk to?

Xiaoyu was a little puzzled, looked at her uncle and said in a daze, "If you have anything to say, you can also talk to Xiaoyu."

Lu Chensheng patted Xiaoyu's head, "It's not that my uncle doesn't believe you, it's just that there are some things that I really can't tell you."

Xiaoyu seemed to understand but didn't understand, and vaguely felt that there seemed to be many things hidden in her uncle's heart.

When summer comes, Bai Yi spends less time at home.

Xiaoyu has always wanted to show her cooking skills to her young lady, and she especially wanted to see the shocked eyes of her young lady.

It's a pity that occasionally Bai Yi would come back, and then leave in a hurry.

Such a situation made Xiao Yu quite helpless.

However, after the reduction of manpower in the White Mansion, Bai Yi's salary was released, which was barely enough.

In this way, there is no need to worry that there will be no food to eat in a short time.

The two taels of silver I earned before, because I bought a lot of meat due to my greed, there is not much left.

Speaking of which, at this moment, Lu Chensheng really seems to be living on Bai Yi's little salary.

...

"You are a little absent-minded in playing chess today."

Under the big banyan tree again, Lu Chensheng sat aside and watched the two play chess.

There is a huge tree cover here, and there is a small river beside it, and it is extremely cool under the gloom.

Mr. Yu glanced at his good friend and smiled, he basically won this game.

Seeing this, the old man surnamed Fan nodded, but he simply conceded defeat.

"A few days ago, the poetry meeting organized by Lianyun Poetry Club produced a lot of good poems."

"Well, but what I didn't expect was that those few talented women won the first place. We, the talented people in Chunnan City, are not good enough."

The two old men started chatting as if no one was there, with a bit of regret in their conversation.

There are many talented men and women in Chunnan City, but when it comes to poetic talent, women still have the upper hand, and the poems they write often cover up many of those talented men.

When people of the older generation heard about it, they couldn't help but laugh.

Speaking of this, the two of them couldn't help but think that a few days ago, the few talented women who stole the limelight at the poetry meeting, each with a poem, would overwhelm all the talented women.

At that time, those talented scholars were all ashamed.

"By the way, did you write any poems in the previous poetry club?"

The two turned their heads suddenly, glanced at Lu Chensheng, and asked.

Lu Chensheng came back to his senses after hearing the words, and subconsciously shook his head, "I have never been to this poetry meeting before."

The two shook their heads immediately when they heard the words. At that time, almost all the talented scholars in the city went to this poetry meeting. Lu Chensheng said that he didn't go, it was probably a lie.

I probably felt a little ashamed, so I simply said that I didn't go.

The two of them were also young, and they knew that some of the young people's hearts were stronger, so they didn't ask one or two at the moment.

How could Lu Chensheng know what the two of them were thinking, if he knew, he might be crying.

He really didn't go to the poetry meeting that day.

"Maybe it's because of General Bai Yi. Any official in Chunnan City would not be afraid to see her. Under such circumstances, there is some reason why women in Chunnan City are better than men."

The old man surnamed Fan said with a wry smile.

Who in Chunnan City doesn't know Bai Yi.

His strong personality is well known.

After a long period of time, the women in Chunnan City gradually overwhelmed all the men in other aspects.

Lu Chensheng was slightly stunned listening to it, and never thought that such a cheap lady would actually have such an aspect.

It's no wonder that as a son-in-law, he has been here in Chunnan City for some time, but he has never heard of anyone provoking him.

It seems that there are very few inquiries.

Maybe it's because of this lady in my own family.

"General Bai Yi is very powerful, but he is in some trouble right now."

The old man surnamed Yu shook his head, "The princes of various places are getting more and more complacent, and now there seems to be some bad news vaguely, and the imperial court is planning to cut Pan. If it is serious, there may be a war.

At that time, General Bai Yi will naturally become the main army. With General Bai Yi's ability, it is not a problem to defeat a few princes, but if there are more, I am afraid that he will not be able to catch them. "

"It doesn't work if you don't cut it. After such a long period of development, each of these princes has become a small country. If this continues, big things will happen sooner or later."

Lu Chensheng frowned as he listened from the side. Seeing the situation, Bai Yi hadn't been back much recently, so it was because of this.

Chapter 237

Boom!

There was a flash of thunder, and then white rays of light filled the air.

At some point, dark clouds overwhelmed the top, and the horned dragon was moving through the clouds.

Tick, tick...

Large and large raindrops fell directly, soaking the ground instantly.

Seeing this, the two old men hurriedly got up, packed their things and waved goodbye to Lu Chensheng.

After Lu Chensheng bid farewell to the two, he got up and walked slowly towards the White House.

It's just that compared with the pedestrians on the street, Lu Chensheng felt a little less hurried, walking unhurriedly, as if thinking about something.

A scholar hurried past at this time, seeing that Lu Chensheng was drenched, but still walking on the street unhurriedly, he was a little curious.

"Brother, why don't you get away from the rain as soon as possible? Why are you still so leisurely?"

Lu Chensheng turned his head and glanced at the other party when he heard the words, and saw that the other party was almost the same as him at this time, and his whole body was basically soaked.

Shaking his head, he said, "I'm already completely wet, and I've got all the drenching, so I really don't mind."

The scholar thought about it after hearing the words, and it seemed to be true. He immediately laughed and walked forward leisurely with Lu Chensheng.

"Brother Tai is kind-hearted, but I am a little persistent."

The scholar walked together in the rain with Lu Chensheng, and some women on the side hurried past with oiled paper umbrellas, watching the two walking without the slightest hurry, there was a trace of weirdness in their eyes.

Wei Wei stopped for a moment, originally thinking of sharing an umbrella to shelter from the rain with the two of them, but how her own umbrella...

After thinking for a while, the woman turned and left.

"Look at Xiongtai's face is very raw, did you just come to Chunnan City? It seems that you have never met Xiongtai at the Lianyun Poetry Club before."

The scholar looked at Lu Chensheng and started talking.

"Well, I didn't participate in this poetry meeting before."

Lu Chensheng nodded when he heard the words, indicating that he did not go.

"Then if it's the next poetry meeting, brother, you can go to participate in it. You can meet a lot of talented people at the poetry meeting."

The scholar looked at Lu Chensheng and suggested.

Since Lu Chensheng said that he had just arrived in this place, he probably didn't know anyone. If Lu Chensheng wanted to meet someone, it would be the easiest at the poetry meeting.

"I've heard about this poetry society. The talented women in Chunnan City seem to be extremely talented."
