Female-male sex: Salted fish forced to rise to prominence

The shopkeeper had made preparations in advance. He asked all the participating students to move to an open space in the hall. More than a dozen desks had been set up there early that morning, complete with pens, ink, paper, and inkstones.

Then he instructed a servant to take charge of the registration.

The maid Tingyu said to Qin Yuehua, "Miss, let's ask the waiter to take us to the private room first. I will come down and register for you later."

The young lady in their family is extremely talented, and her grandfather often says that if she were reborn as a man, she would definitely be as good as any other.

"Okay." Qin Yuehua nodded in agreement.

Although most of the applicants are students, the shopkeeper did not specify that only men can participate, which means that women can participate as well.

Song Xuanzhi looked at this group of students and Confucian scholars who were eager to try. Although he also wanted to participate, he was not good at literature. He had always thought of working hard to pass the examination to become a scholar, and then find his brother-in-law who was the county magistrate, to make some connections and get a position.

Last time, following his brother-in-law's instructions, he took Su Yu to a brothel to ruin Su Yu's reputation. He thought that after this fool Su Yu spent the night in a brothel, his reputation would be ruined.

Who knew that the guy would find an opportunity to escape? Even though he had given me such a strong drug, I don't know how he managed to escape.

Fortunately, although the expected effect was not achieved, Su Yu's reputation of visiting brothels was still spread, otherwise he would not know how to explain to his brother-in-law, County Magistrate Yang.

So, he came up with a plan. When he secretly asked Lin Lantian to register, he would also register Su Yu's name.

He wanted to see Su Yu's embarrassed look when the time came, unable to compose a single poem. Just thinking about it made him laugh foolishly.

Su Yu looked at the enthusiastic crowd. He had no desire to attend any poetry conference. He had come all the way from the clothing store and encountered so many things. He was really hungry.

Su Yu didn't care about anyone else and just called a waiter to lead them to the private room on the second floor.

This was also Su Yu's first time in an ancient restaurant, so he told the waiter to bring all the store's signs to the two tables.

Su Yu and his group sat at one table, while Xie An and Xie Nanxing sat at another. It wasn't that Su Yu had class consciousness, but rather that he was adapting to the times and avoiding unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, Su Yu is indeed their master, with a sense of priority, making him easier to manage and gain their obedience.

The dishes came up immediately, including steamed goose with salted bamboo shoots, roast chicken, roast duck, fish soup, glutinous rice porridge with shredded chicken, leek and eggplant, three-stranded tofu, three-fresh soup, fried small fish, tofu soup, steamed sugar cake, osmanthus cake, and many other varieties.

Su Yu was hungry, so he had a meal of delicious food. As expected of the largest restaurant in Taohua County, the food tasted good, but there was no chili pepper, which was a bit lacking for Su Yu, who loved spicy food.

The other three scholars, seeing Su Yu eating like a starving ghost, showed disdain on their faces, but their speed in picking up food was no slower than Su Yu's.

Fortunately, Su Yu started eating early, and by the time they reacted, Su Yu had almost finished eating.

Seeing that the three people looked like they hadn't eaten enough, Su Yu kindly asked the waiter to serve a portion of the signature dish and also asked him to serve their most famous Zhuyeqing.

When the three of them saw Su Yu generously instructing the waiter, they thought he was a fool and was planning to treat them to a meal to please them.

After all, in the academy, only the three of them would pay attention to this idiot. If this idiot was not rich, who would pay attention to him? So with the idea of making a killing out of Su Yu, the three of them ate a lot.

After the wine arrived, Su Yu invited everyone to eat and drink, toasting each other, leaving the little girl Xie Nanxing beside him confused. "Has this master become good friends with these scoundrels again?"

"It's a good wine, with a mellow taste, slightly bitter but sweet aftertaste," Su Yu praised.

Su Yu shouted outside: "Waiter, bring three more pots. Brothers, we must drink to our heart's content and not leave until we are drunk."

Xie An was the only person who understood the situation at the scene. Looking at Su Yu's increasingly amiable face, he knew that these people were in trouble. They had to mess with their own master instead of anyone else.

On the other side, the third lady Chen Manli, who was late, finally arrived at the restaurant. Fortunately, Bai Mufan had already sent Bai Shu to pick her up secretly. As soon as she appeared, the servant Bai Shu led her and the maid Biluo to a private room in a secluded corner.

From the moment Chen Manli opened the door and appeared, Bai Mufan could only see her with his whole body and mind.

Today, Chen Manli wore a peach pink corseted silk dress with a white gauze covering the outside, which made her round eyes look even more charming.

Her black hair was combed into a lily bun with a few tufts of hair left on her forehead, making her look simple and innocent. Two hollow gem crabapple hairpins were pinned on both sides of the bun, and a finely crafted gold hairpin peony step-shake, also called a back hairpin, was pinned on the end of her hair. The glass beads moved when she shook it, making it more unique.

Biluo behind her also put on her most beautiful dress today, and also wore a few pink hairpins, but General Bai didn't even give her a glance, and she couldn't help feeling lost.

Bai Mufan stared at Chen Manli without blinking, as if he was deeply attracted by her beauty.

Seeing him like this, Chen Manli couldn't help but find it a little funny, so she gently pushed him and said in a gentle and playful tone: "Brother Bai, what's wrong with you?"

These words were like a key that opened the door to Bai Mufan's thoughts and brought him back to his senses from his trance.

"Maner, you, you are so beautiful." Bai Mufan stammered and could only utter this sentence.

"Brother Bai is also extremely handsome, and is the man that many ladies in the world want to marry." Chen Manli was telling the truth, but she was not among those people.

To her, Bai Mufan was just a useful tool.

Despite this, she tried her best to hide her inner impatience because she knew that Bai Mufan was of great use to her.

When Bai Mufan heard this, a warm feeling surged in his heart, as if a fire was burning.

He stared at her with his fiery eyes, full of affection and desire.

He gently called "Maner". Although his voice was low and weak, it was full of endless tenderness and love.

This call was like a spring breeze, gently touching her heartstrings. Although he did not express this emotion directly, he believed that she would be able to feel the affection in his heart.

At this moment, the distance between them seemed to become closer, and the atmosphere between them became more ambiguous.

His thoughts went back to five years ago, when the little girl kindly rescued him from the river when he was injured. From that moment on, there was no room for anyone else in his heart. His heart and eyes were filled with only the kind-hearted girl in front of him.

He thought to himself that Man'er was fourteen years old this year. After she had her coming-of-age ceremony in a year, he would go to her house to propose marriage.

Chen Manli pretended to be shy, opened her eyes wider and rounder on purpose, and looked at him with watery eyes.

She said: "Brother Bai, I told you last time about breaking off the engagement. Although my father and mother were very angry when they heard that Su Yu went to a brothel, they didn't say they wanted to break off the engagement. What should I do now?"

When Bai Mufan heard this, his handsome face was filled with sharp eyes and a murderous aura. When he turned to look at her, he said gently: "Man'er, don't worry, I will help you think of a way.

Bai Mufan was very angry. The Taohua County Magistrate volunteered to help him deal with Su Yu. He couldn't even handle such a small matter, and yet he wanted to join him and follow his ways. What a useless person.

In Taohua County, County Magistrate Yang sneezed for no reason and suddenly felt a little cold all over.

"Brother Bai, I knew you would help me. You are the best to me," Chen Manli said softly.

When the two wanted to say something else, they heard the shopkeeper downstairs say that the Pine Needle Wine Cultural Poetry Competition had officially begun.

Chen Manli was also surprised that there was pine needle wine in this small county town. Although she was well-known for her talent in the capital, she also knew her own level. If she hadn't brought her half-sister Chen Qingqing with her today, she would definitely not be able to write this poem.

Look at Bai Mufan next to him, a reckless man who only knows how to brandish swords and guns all day long. There is no hope if we rely on him.

But this pine needle wine is indeed a good thing, and she also wants it, so he looked at Bai Mufan expectantly, with big watery eyes, an innocent face, and pretending to be melancholy.

Bai Mufan saw her expression and asked, "Man'er, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Manli said: "Grandmother's birthday is coming soon. If I can give her this jar of pine needle wine, she will definitely treat me and mother better." After saying this, she sighed softly.

Bai Mufan felt so distressed when he heard that, he said: "Maner, you have been wronged, don't worry, I will definitely help you get this jar of wine", Bai Mufan promised solemnly.

"Thank you, Brother Bai. I have been away for a long time today. If I don't go back, my mother will look for me." Chen Manli's eyes were full of guilt, as if she was reluctant to leave.

As she said this, she bowed to Bai Mufan, said goodbye and left.

Looking at the back of his beloved woman walking away, his heart was filled with reluctance.

However, he knew that now was not the time, so he suppressed his emotions.

He believed that if he waited another year, the girl he loved would marry him, and he never doubted it.

After all, he was the general's son and the fourth child. Although he was only an adopted son, his two older brothers had already died on the battlefield.

The third brother retired from the battlefield, his legs were disabled, and he was bedridden for many years.

Now, he was the only heir to the General's Mansion. Although he had a younger sister who was ranked fifth, she was a girl after all and would have to get married sooner or later.

Man'er, he was determined to get her, and the heat in Bai Mufan's eyes became deeper and deeper.
