Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

Cui Yu was frightened by Madam Liu and shook her head quickly, "I don't know, I was just following the young lady's instructions, but when I came back, she was gone!"

At this time, several servants in the room had already brought the two people out.

Although they were young ladies and young masters from official families, such a scandal happened in someone else's house, so we can't blame them for being cruel.

So the two people were pulled out without hesitation.

Although they were given a simple tidy-up, the two people's messy hair and completely shapeless clothes proved what had just happened.

"Zhiqin, my Zhiqin!"

Madam Liu rushed over, quickly took the cloak handed to her by the maid, and surrounded her daughter.

It’s a pity that those who should have seen it and those who shouldn’t have seen it now know what happened, and the voices of ridicule are endless.

Next to her was her drunken nephew. Although he had been brought out, the drunkenness on his face had not yet completely sobered up. He was still muttering, "Beauty, my beauty!"

Everyone also saw clearly that these two people were just framed or had their work done wrong.

Now that the dust has settled, everyone goes their separate ways.

Liu Zhiyin heaved a sigh of relief. If nothing else, at least the first hurdle was passed.

Even if he had to face the embarrassment of his father and stepmother when he returned home, his good sister had to marry her cousin in this life because such a thing had happened to her in public.

As the only daughter of the Liu family, she would not be easily abandoned by her father, but would seriously choose a good marriage for herself.

Although the banquet started off well but ended badly, its original purpose had been achieved.

At the very least, the mistresses of each household have already chosen their favorite daughter-in-law.

My cousin Ma Nanxiao's marriage is also in sight, but it's just a preliminary meeting now. It will take some time before the three matchmakers and six betrothal gifts are arranged, so it will take some time.

The flower viewing banquet a while ago gave everyone a lot of talk for a long time. It was all about what kind of quarrel had happened in the Liu family, and how they even wanted to pass off a concubine's daughter as the legitimate daughter and deceive their fiancé.

If Liu Zhiyin had not made preparations in advance and frequently invited friends to her house, her father would have really swapped their identities.

It’s a pity that the Liu family’s reputation had plummeted by then. Even if she was innocent, it would be difficult for her to find a good marriage in the capital.

Liu Zhiyin didn't care about these things, but actively contacted her mother's family, hoping that they could find a marriage for her in another place.

After all, there is no benefit for her to marry into the capital, so she might as well take this opportunity to leave the capital.

And get rid of this family.

Liu Zhiyin found a good day and got married in a low-key manner. Although he was just a juren from another place, his family was upright, so it was considered a good marriage.

As for Liu Zhiqin, although she was unwilling to marry her cousin, her scandal was discovered in public. Apart from getting married, her only option was to become a nun.

Comparing the two, getting married is actually the best choice.

Although Liu Zhiqin was unwilling, she had no choice but to get into the bridal sedan crying.

However, everyone in the capital knew about their affair, so their wedding was held in an extremely shabby manner and no one came to congratulate them.

My cousin's family had committed a crime and were now just ordinary civilians, so they wanted to curry favor with a powerful family in order to improve their status.

I didn't expect that after marrying this cousin, it was like worshipping a big Buddha. If she was not satisfied, she would go back to her parents' home to complain.

It made the whole family restless.

Although Mrs. Liu loved her daughter, she loved her own family even more. Comparing the two, she could only let her daughter be patient and temporarily give birth to a son and then hand him over to the Liu family for upbringing.

It's a pity that they have a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days. They have no peace at all, let alone getting pregnant and having a baby.

It also added a lot of jokes to the capital.

These days, apart from going to school as usual, Zuo Zhizhi spends her time watching the lively life of their family.

After all, according to their bold actions, although I intervened and a big change occurred, there is no doubt that the story of this family is exciting enough.

The only pity is that I can’t visit their home often, so I can only learn about their current situation through some gossip.

Fortunately, there were many storytellers in the city. They simply gave this incident a pseudonym and began to tell the story openly.

Therefore, the teahouse was crowded during this period, and Zuo Zhizhi and several sisters often went to the private rooms of the teahouse to drink tea together.

Apart from anything else, just looking at the situation of this family is enough to make people happy.

Just when everyone was happy, another major event occurred in the capital.

A new heroine appears!

The female protagonist's official position this time is not very high. She is just an ordinary sixth-rank official. In this capital city full of royal relatives, she is definitely at the bottom.

But at a very ordinary banquet, a few little girls were just writing lyrics and composing music, treating it as an ordinary game.

Unexpectedly, one person stood out from the crowd.

With his poem "Song of Water Melody", Su Yun not only captured the hearts of all the women present, but also made all the young men in the capital admire her when the poem spread.

After that, Su Yun was often invited to various banquets, and she was not at all nervous. She participated in every competition confidently and won all the battles without a doubt.

This greatly boosted Su Yun's reputation in the capital.

After all, beauty can be a personal preference, and fame can be feigned, but a person’s talent and reputation are genuine!

Especially Su Yun’s series of poems, each of which is a rare good poem in a century, and all of them are amazing!

Because of Su Yun's special status, the school where Zuo Zhizhi studied also sent her an invitation, inviting her to the school.

Although there were a few young ladies from high-ranking officials who wanted to make friends with her, there were more young masters who admired Su Yun and wanted to increase her value so that they could have a chance to win her heart.

The first thing Su Yun did when she arrived at the academy was to ridicule in public. However, she wasn't ridiculing a particular person, but these poems.

Her arrogance and publicity attracted a large number of people, and countless men and women were very fond of her.

Of course, on the other hand, many people also have a bad impression of Su Yun.

Even if you are talented and knowledgeable, it is not the behavior of a gentleman to disrespect the martyrs and the ancients.

It was just this dispute that made Su Yun's reputation rise to a higher level.

There's no way. This is a fictional dynasty, and there are no poems that I've learned before. If I wanted to, I could still amaze everyone with this.

But Zuo Zhizhi chose to stay away from Su Yun.

You must know that this is a critical period in the struggle for imperial power. If you show up in a high-profile manner at this time, it will be a problem how to get out of it safely!
