Being a princess in a world with more men than women
Chapter 67: Bookstore encounters poetry competition
This sounds good, but I don’t know if real life is really that comfortable.
Since there are literate women here, there should be no problem for her to go shopping in the bookstore!
So, Xu Yuexi spoke up when the carriage was about to pass by the bookstore.
"parking"
"Xier wants to go to the bookstore?" Tang Liuqing was a little surprised.
Xu Yuexi didn't understand why Tang Liuqing was so surprised. Could it be that women were not allowed to go to bookstores?
"I've been lying in bed for a few days, and my body is sore. I want to get out of the car and walk around. Is that okay?"
"Of course, I'll accompany you, just wait a moment."
Xu Yuexi watched Tang Liuqing and Yue Rensong get off the carriage together. She didn't know what they said. Then Yue Rensong walked away, and then he came to pick her up from the carriage.
This bookstore is very large, divided into three floors. Its architectural style is very unique, with blue bricks and black tiles, and is simple and elegant.
A horizontal plaque is hung on the lintel, with four large characters "嫏嬛书屋" inscribed on it, implying that this is a treasure house of books.
The bookstore had a large flow of people. From time to time, scholars dressed in colorful robes, holding various classics in their hands, would walk into the door of the bookstore in groups of three or five.
When Xu Yuexi, Tang Liuqing, Lou Moyu and Yue Rensong stepped into the gate, exclamations were heard all around.
Xu Yuexi is now very calm. She walks forward with her head held high and her chest out. She says, "I'm a princess. I have power, beauty, and a good figure. I have enough capital."
"Hello, lady, may I help you?" A waiter saw Xu Yuexi enter the store and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"Nothing, I just want to come in and take a look, is that okay?"
"Oh, yes, of course. Please, lady."
Such a polite girl, even if she can't read and wants to come in and take a look, there's nothing wrong with that.
After Xu Yuexi entered the store, she found that the bookstore was indeed very large and was divided into several areas.
Some areas are filled with various classics, history and miscellaneous collections, some are filled with poems and songs, and some are some current affairs and political commentaries. These books are so dazzling that it is hard to take it all in.
In a corner of the bookstore, pens, ink, paper, inkstones, and various stationery items are sold, making it convenient for literati and poets to write and express their feelings at any time.
There are all kinds of people in the bookstore, some are looking for a book they have long admired, and some come here to meet friends, talk about poetry and essays, and comment on current affairs. They shuttle between the bookshelves, sometimes stop to read, sometimes whisper and discuss.
However, at this moment they all fell silent, their eyes following Xu Yuexi and her group.
Xu Yuexi picked up a book at random and took a look. Fortunately, the text was the same as modern text.
Suddenly Xu Yuexi heard cheers coming from upstairs.
"Hello, may I ask what is going on on the second floor?"
Xu Yuexi asked the waiter who was waiting on the side.
"To answer the girl, the second floor is a fighting room, and the scholars are competing in poetry right now."
Poetry contest? As far as she knew, there were four ways to compete in poetry: one was to choose rhymes, two was to pick rhymes, three was to choose the same topic, and four was to sing in harmony.
"That's the way you guys compete in poetry here?"
"To answer the question, lady, we usually have the same topic," the waiter replied.
This woman is so amazing, she even knows how to compete in poetry.
Same topic? This format is usually given by the shop owner or an elder to let everyone write poems. It is a competition of both speed and quality, the one who is faster and better wins.
She can do this. Although she can't compose poems, she can recite them.
"Feng Qing, how about we go and take a look?"
Tang Liuqing nodded. It was rare that she was interested in something, so of course he wouldn't object.
"Miss, do you know about poetry competitions?" Yue Rensong asked.
In order not to expose Xu Yuexi's identity, she was called Miss in front of outsiders.
"I know! I know a lot!"
"Waiter, can we go up and take a look?"
