Chapter 9 Literary Talent First

Chapter 9: The first

Choose Ye Fan?

The maid was stunned for a moment and looked at Yu Niang with confusion: "Miss, you have just read a poem. Have you not read any of the ones below? What if there are better poems below?"

"If the lady chooses Ye Fan, wouldn't it be aggrieved for the lady? Ye Fan has no money and no background. This time he has provoked the Li family. I hope the lady will think twice."

The maid's name is Xiaohuan. She has always grown up with Yu Niang and has to consider many things for Yu Niang. Now that Yu Niang has chosen Ye Fan so easily, she is puzzled.

Whoever comes here today has a better identity than Ye Fan? What’s more important is that Ye Fan has provoked the Li family and Yu Niang chose Ye Fan, wouldn’t she also offend the Li family’s sons?

How could Yu Niang not know the maid’s thoughts? However, after she saw Ye Fan’s poems, she had already made up her mind to choose him.

"Don't think about it, just choose him." Yu Niang waved to the maid, picked up Shi again and looked slowly.

When the maid saw Yu Niang's actions, she knew that she could not convince her. She walked out of Yu Niang's room with regret and worry.

Outside.

"I heard that the young masters of the Li family are all literary and martial. Today, the first name must have appeared in the young masters of the Li family."

"Yes, Yu Niang's guest entering the temple today must have been born among the young master of the Li family."

The entire hall was praising the people of the Li family, no matter whether these people wanted to curry favor with the Li family, or whether the young masters of the Li family really had real talents and knowledge.

Ye Fan was not worried.

Back then, for the sake of the college entrance examination, he memorized the Tang and Song lyrics. After so long, he should have forgotten this poem.

But strangely, after rebirth, Ye Fan's memory seemed to be strengthened. Those books he had read in later generations not only did not forget them, but instead became clearer in his mind.

Ye Fan looked at the faces of these people, and showed a look of disdain on his face.

Li Shimin and others who had been secretly paying attention to Ye Fan had secretly regretted seeing Ye Fan's expression. At the same time, they were thinking in their hearts that when the result came out, they would let them laugh at Ye Fan with the result.

"Come, come out."

Someone shouted in the field, and everyone was shocked and looked up at the second floor. Sure enough, they saw the maid who had just taken away the result and walked towards the ring with Yingying's smiling face.

"Today's first name has come out, he is." The maid stood on the stage, her eyes swept to the audience, and finally fell on Ye Fan who was standing in the corner.

She raised her jade hand slightly, pointed at Ye Fan and said, "The first name today is Ye Fan."

"What?"

"How is this possible?"

"I don't believe it."

Everyone exclaimed and looked at Ye Fan with disbelief.

The smiles on Li Shimin and others' faces froze instantly, and they never expected that things did not develop in the direction they thought.

Ye Fan has become the first name, so why aren’t their plan today finished?

Just when several people wanted to stand up and question Ye Fan's poems, Ye Fan sneered and said, "Everyone, how about it, I have said that as long as I appear, there will be nothing you can do."

Arrogant.

Too arrogant.

Everyone present heard Ye Fan's words and was immediately embarrassed and angry, and every pair of eyes stared at Ye Fan.

If the eyes could kill people, Ye Fan didn't know how many times he had died.

"What kind of poem did Ye Fan write that can become the first name?" Li Shimin glanced at Ye Fan with a gloomy face, and then looked at the maid.

When the maid saw Li Shimin's attitude, she knew that Li Shimin wanted her to take out Ye Fan's poems and convince everyone.

"I want to read Ye Fan's poems?" asked the maid.

"Not bad." Li Shimin said.

"Well, since that's the case, please wait for a moment."

The maid said, bowed and retreated. After a while, she came out with Ye Fan's poem and recited on the stage:

The fragrance curtain moves the flowers into the building, and the zither sings the zither at a high-profile eases the sorrow of the night.

The heartbroken mountain is not explained, and the curtain hook is lingered on the waning moon.

After listening to the poems read by the maid, everyone was silent. If they were them, it would never be possible to write such poems.

How could Ye Fan, a rice seller, write a poem better than them? Everyone looked at Ye Fan and showed an incredible look.

Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, Chai Shao and others all had gloomy faces. Yesterday they discussed inviting Ye Fan to the Cuiyu Building to suppress him.

Now that Ye Fan has become the first name, how can they suppress him?

Several people looked at each other, and then Li Jiancheng stood up and said, "Let him be proud first. Tomorrow is the last time to hand over the grain. Then he can't hand over the grain. We want to deal with it, but we have the final say."

"Well, that's all."

The others nodded and stood up one after another.

At this time, Li Jiancheng looked at Ye Fan coldly and said, "Ye Fan, I hope you can still be so proud tomorrow."

After Li Jiancheng finished speaking, he swayed his sleeves and turned around with the others to come out of Cuiyu Tower.

Li Shimin and his gang left, and the other playboys pulled up the Cuiyulou girl beside her to have fun and spread the depression in her heart.

"Ye Fan, you have got the first name, please."

Hua Niang came to Ye Fan and said to him incredible ways.

"Hua Niang, what you said yesterday is pretty solid. You only have 5,000 taels of income today, and the rest are mine?"

Ye Fan had no intention of going up to the second floor, so Hua Niang asked directly.

Although Ye Fan did not reject becoming the guest of Yu Niang's visitor, he had more important things at the moment, and he got money to buy one million kilograms of grain.

Before the Li family came to monitor him, they left Cuiyu Tower and looked for a place where they could store ten thousand bags of rice.

"Shopkeeper Ye is worthy of being a businessman. It's all about keeping his mouth shut. Don't worry, the tickets sold today were 8,000 taels, I only want 5,000 taels, and the other 3,000 taels are yours."

"Now, Manager Ye should go to Yu Niang's place first. As for the money, let's share it until tomorrow." Yu Niang saw that Ye Fan's mind was on the money, and said with a smile.

Wait for tomorrow?

How can that work?

Tomorrow, Cuiyu Building is surrounded by spies from the Li family, so how can he put out the rice?

Ye Fan quickly shook his head and said, "Hua Niang, I think we'd better share the money first. I still have something to do today, so I won't go to Yu Niang's place."

"You really only need money? Don't you go to Yu Niang?"

Yu Niang looked at Ye Fan in disbelief.

If it were someone else, she would have run into Yu Niang's room without asking her.

"I won't go." Ye Fan said cruelly.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to go, but that he can’t stay in Cuiyulou for too long. When he goes to Yuniang’s place, he probably won’t be able to get out of here.

"Okay, I hope you don't regret it." Hua Niang had no choice but to nod and said.

Immediately, he waved to Ye Fan and said, "Follow me."

Following Hua Niang and coming to her room, Ye Fan saw the silver she had just collected and asked Hua Niang to arrange a carriage for him to pull the silver, and quickly left Cuiyu Building.

As soon as Ye Fan left, Hua Niang went to Yu Niang's room.

"Sister, what about Ye Fan?"

Yu Niang was in the room, but she didn't wait for Ye Fan, but instead waited for Hua Niang, and immediately looked at Hua Niang in confusion.

"Go away."

Hua Niang said, walked to Yu Niang and continued, "Ye Fan is very capable of making money, and we must not let such a person go."
