Chapter 38 The Great Poet
Shen Qingdie looked Zhao Zikang up and down in surprise, as if she had just met him. After a while, she said, "Go ahead! I'm listening!"
Zhao Zikang didn't mind his cousin's rudeness. He stood up, gently waved his folding fan, and posed in a very stylish way. Then he said loudly: "Moving the boat to the misty islet, the guest is worried about the sunset. The wild field is vast, the sky is low, the trees are low, the river is clear, and the moon is close to people."
Quiet!
The school was completely quiet!
Mr. Donghu and Shen Qingdie were dumbfounded, looking at Zhao Zikang in doubt. This guy hasn't even learned all the characters yet, and now he can write a poem? And such a good poem!
After a brief moment of shock, Shen Qingdie reacted, remembering that Jiang Dazhu could write poems, and turned to look at the bad guy. Unexpectedly, Jiang Dazhu was reciting these poems with his head shaking, and even praised them.
Could it be that my cousin has finally come to his senses?
Shen Qingdie looked at her cousin Zhao Zikang, then at the evil slave Jiang Dazhui, and didn't find anything wrong.
Mr. Donghu clapped his hands in praise and said with a smile: "I claim to know a little about poetry, but I ask myself if I can write such a good poem! My cousin has such a genius. I will report it to my wife so that she can be happy too!"
Zhao Zikang quickly pulled Mr. Donghu to his side and said modestly, "Master, don't worry! It's too early to report now. Wouldn't it be better if I can pass the imperial examination?"
Mr. Donghu thought about it and couldn't seem to find any reason to object, so he agreed.
Shen Qingdie withdrew her gaze from Jiang Chengfeng, tugged at her cousin Zhao Zikang's wide sleeves, and asked, "Cousin, don't lie to me! Did you really write this poem?"
Zhao Zikang now felt very proud, and even his back was straightened, with a smug smile on his face, "How could my cousin lie to you? What do you think, cousin?"
Watching the cousins arguing endlessly, Jiang Chengfeng suddenly remembered the argument with Meng Jianglin by the Bi Bo Lake.
If we just talk about talent, that girl is really good and has good vision, but she is too paranoid and will stab people with a knife if she disagrees with something.
Then, Mr. Donghu began his lecture.
After Shen Qingdie sat down, Jiang Chengfeng stood by her side. Mr. Donghu's hypnosis skills were indeed very solid. Jiang Chengfeng began to feel drowsy less than ten minutes into the lecture.
At this moment, Jiang Chengfeng suddenly felt someone pulling his sleeve. He looked down and found that it was Miss Shen II.
Miss Shen pointed to the chair beside her and motioned Jiang Chengfeng to sit down.
Jiang Chengfeng shook his head and said, "I am just a servant, how can I be qualified to sit down?"
Shen Qingdie pouted and said angrily, "Tsk! I didn't see you so humble yesterday? I asked you to sit down, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Jiang Chengfeng shrugged his shoulders and sat down carelessly.
After sitting down, Jiang Chengfeng realized that the Second Miss Shen was only sitting on half of the chair, so he asked in a low voice: "Has the swelling not gone down yet?"
Shen Qingdie glared at Jiang Chengfeng and muttered, "It's all your fault! But luckily I applied the ointment and it's much better now! I was almost discovered by mother last night! But don't worry, even if I was discovered, I wouldn't tell mother that it was you, a big bad guy, who beat me up!"
"Oh! I will remember the great kindness of the Second Miss!" Jiang Chengfeng smiled and bowed.
Shen Qingdie held her chin with one hand and sighed, "Do you think I want to control you? I just don't have many friends around me. If you are punished, who can I talk to?"
Having said this, Shen Qingdie's eyes darkened and she fell silent.
Jiang Chengfeng smiled bitterly and said, "Since the Second Miss is so loyal, I won't be stingy! If the Second Miss has any difficulties in the future, as long as I can help, I will never refuse!"
Shen Qingdie's pretty face turned red, she spat and cursed: "I don't believe you are so kind!"
If it weren't for her mother's pressure, Shen Qingdie would not have been willing to come to the school to study. But now it seems that it is not so boring. With Jiang Dazhu chatting with her, the happy day passed quickly.
Mr. Donghu didn't care about Miss Shen Er , because in his opinion, women didn't need to have profound knowledge, just knowing a few words would be enough. On the contrary, he became strict with Zhao Zikang, perhaps because of the poem about the moon!
Zhao Zikang himself was a good boy for the whole day, and he rarely slept in class. Today he experienced the treatment of a great talent. Although he felt itchy when he heard his cousin and Jiang Dazhu talking, he held it in for the whole day.
After finally waiting for Mr. Donghu to go to the toilet, Zhao Zikang finally couldn't help it and asked his cousin where they were going to play after school.
Shen Qingdie shook her head and said, "Mother said my sister is coming back, I have to wait for her!"
"Cousin Ruoyan is coming back soon?" Zhao Zikang's eyes widened, his face full of surprise. "In that case, I won't go out!"
Shen Qingdie covered her mouth with her hands and smiled sweetly, saying, "That's naturally the best! But my sister said that she will check your homework when she comes back, so you better be prepared!"
Zhao Zikang's eyes widened, then he laughed and said, "I suddenly remembered that I had an appointment with Brother Sun and Brother Dong to go to Feiyue Tower tonight. I'll leave the task of welcoming Cousin Ruoyan to you, cousin!"
As if Shen Qingdie had expected Zhao Zikang to say this, she stood up and smiled at Jiang Chengfeng, "I'm leaving!"
Not only Zhao Zikang, but even Jiang Chengfeng himself was stunned.
This girl actually said goodbye to me? Could it be that I left an indelible shadow in her heart yesterday?
Watching Shen Qingdie skipping away, Jiang Chengfeng asked Zhao Zikang why he didn't go to greet Miss Shen.
Zhao Zikang hung his head in frustration and said, "Actually, I really want to go! But Cousin Ruoyan is too strong-willed and always asks me to recite those nonsense Book of Songs. I don't want to study at all! Rather than being looked down upon by Cousin Ruoyan, I'd rather not go!"
Jiang Chengfeng couldn't help but be stunned. This guy has a severe aversion to school!
After thinking for a while, Jiang Chengfeng said with a smile: "Young Master, I won't hide it from you! The reason why Madam is unwilling to marry her daughter to you is because she despises you for not having any academic achievements! If you pass the imperial examination, Madam will definitely consider marrying her daughter off!"
Zhao Zikang chuckled, patted Jiang Chengfeng on the shoulder, and said, "You're right, kid! But I feel sleepy when I see a book! How about this! Teach me to recite a few more poems!"
Jiang Chengfeng smiled cunningly, patted his chest, and assured: "Of course!"
However, Jiang Chengfeng then became embarrassed and said that he had almost forgotten the masterpieces of his friends from his hometown and needed to go out to find some inspiration.
Zhao Zikang did not doubt him and agreed, "In fact, I have wanted to go out for a long time! Why don't we go to Chunxianglou, drink some wine and visit prostitutes, maybe..."
Having said that, Zhao Zikang quickly shut up.
