Carefree Scholar

Chapter 20: Tanabata word

Views:

The women in the village have been preparing for many days, and the Qixi Festival has finally arrived.

When Li Yi walked out the door, he could see the high platform that had been built not far in front of him. Xiaohuan and the others called it Qiqiaolou. The four corners were tied with ribbons, and the atmosphere was very festive.

On the stage were fried qiaoguo, flower melons, some simple dishes and other seasonal items. Li Yi just saw that Xiaohuan brought needles, threads, pens and inkstones from home, thinking that he would use them for the evening activities.

They really attached great importance to the Qixi Festival, and they might not be able to eat the snacks on the stage during the Chinese New Year.

You must know that the average living standard of Liuye Village has not reached a moderate level of prosperity. Except for the family members of the Liu family who live in a slightly better situation, the rest of the people are just eating and clothing so that they will not go hungry.

Because of Qixi Festival, Li Yi can find another reason to give the bear children a few days off. Most of the bear children who are greedy for snacks like Qiaoguo Huagua are wandering around the side of the Qiqiao building, thinking of climbing up to steal a little, just approaching Qiao building, they were driven away by their own sister or the girl who arranged the clever building.

Li Yi saw from a distance that Liu Xiaohu was waving a stick in his hand vigorously, and he had a bit of aura, and he got countless envious eyes from the surrounding children.

Most members of the Liu clan practice martial arts, no matter men or women, they have more or less kung fu skills.

Leaving aside sisters Liu Ruyi, Li Yi's voice at home became much quieter when she saw a solid wooden table shattered by her wife, and when her sister-in-law chopped off a tree trunk as thick as an arm with a sword.

Of course, he ran into them occasionally these two times, and he didn't have the chance to see them fight with others, but Li Yi made a rough estimate in his heart, and he might not be a match for any of them out of ten.

With the increasing understanding of this world, Li Yi began to realize that things like martial arts or rivers and lakes might really exist here.

Although it is not clear whether there is such a fierce person in martial arts novels who take the enemy and generals with a rank of one hundred and thousands of horses, the individual strength of a martial arts practitioner is still far beyond Li Yi's imagination.

In short, this world is very dangerous, and you need to be cautious when going out. Li Yi thinks it's better to stay in the village honestly.

Liu Xiaohu is the king of children in the village, the head of a bear child, who has practiced martial arts with adults since he was a child, and his body is strong and tight. Li Yi stood aside and watched with interest.

"Hi sir!"

Suddenly, a certain brat saw Li Yi behind him, and after a shock, he immediately bowed and yelled respectfully.

Only then did the brats turn their heads and saw Mr. standing behind them, they all bent down to salute, as if they had suddenly become obedient children.

Liu Xiaohu also dropped the stick in his hand, his face was a little flushed because of exercising just now, he was panting slightly, but his expression was very respectful.

Among all the bears, he is the one who likes to listen to Li Yi's stories about Journey to the West the most. Although he is usually very naughty, he will immediately become a good baby in front of Li Yi.

To say who is the most popular among these brats in the village at present, no one can compare with Li Yi.

Where can I find a good gentleman who won't let them memorize those messy things, will tell them stories, and often takes vacations. The brats think that the current gentleman is much better than the old man before.

Li Yi nodded to the brats, then waved his hand and said, "Go and play."

Seeing the brats scatter in a hurry, when they were about to go to the front to have a look, a cold snort suddenly came from their ears.

"Mr. What, it's just a forager..."

The voice was so familiar, it sounded like the kind of grapes that could not eat grapes and said that the grapes were sour, or the peaches that had been coveted for a long time were picked by others. Li Yi looked back and saw a young man standing Not far behind him, he looked at him rather unkindly.

The first time he saw him, Li Yi recalled, wasn't this the guy who broke into the house with his second aunt Wu that night, and was finally scared away by Liu Ruyi

The way this guy looked at him was like a dog seeing bones, which made Li Yi very upset.

"Oh, Wu Ying, don't say that, he's a scholar..." The young man just finished speaking when a person beside him said.

"You fart scholar, you're not a formidable..." another person said.

There were several people beside the young man, and after a few words of booing, they burst out laughing.

Since ancient times, civil and military have been opposites. Scholars who practice martial arts think that they are a bunch of reckless men with strong limbs and simple minds, who can only show off their bravery.

Similarly, martial arts practitioners also look down on scholars, thinking that they can only play tricks and have no real skills. Even if they can read a few poems and draw a few pictures, they are still scumbags with only five combat effectiveness...

What's more, the direct line has never had a good impression of the direct line, and Li Yi now has a big direct line label attached to him.

"What are you doing here?" A clear voice came from the side, and several women walked down Qiaolou. When they saw Li Yi, smiles appeared on their faces immediately. , I just need my brother-in-law's help with one thing."

The name of this generous woman in front of her is Liu Yu. Her father is an old subordinate of the former village master. She is about the same age as Liu Ruyi. She is usually referred to as a sister. After getting acquainted with her, she calls Li Yi her brother-in-law.

For this woman, Li Yi had met before but didn't know her name, and never said hello. Later, for some reason, when she met again, the other party's attitude suddenly became much more enthusiastic.

Not only her, even the girls beside her at the moment would smile and say hello when they saw her.

Out of curiosity, Li Yi asked Xiaohuan to find out that they all liked the paintings he painted on the sky lanterns. The girl thought of him in her heart.

When Xiaohuan said these words, Li Yi's expression was bewildered. She couldn't hear what she said later, all she knew was that Liu Ruyi gave herself ten cents for each painting, and sold it for thirty cents. For a moment, Li Yi felt that he was a fool...

The young men and the others were very upset when they saw a group of girls treating themselves as air, but greeted Li Yi with a smile on their faces. The young man named Wu Ying snorted and said, "What can a scholar do? Whatever it is, just tell us."

Although the two belonged to different camps, the young man surnamed Wu would naturally not treat beautiful women like he treated Li Yi, and said enthusiastically, patting his chest.

Liu Yu turned her head, looked at him with a strange look, and said, "Today is the Qixi Festival, so I will trouble you to compose a Qixi poem that fits the occasion."

"Qixi... word..."

When the young man surnamed Wu heard the words, his face froze for a moment, and then turned green and white, which was wonderful.

Lyricist

He even knows one big character, so how can he know how to write lyrics!

If he had known that Liu Yu was looking for someone to write Qixi Ci, he wouldn't have pretended to be so forceful!
