Chapter 132: The ignorant Cheng Rui seeks a monthly pass)
Xu Jie followed the servant to the sixth floor, but there was only one person on the floor, a scholar about thirty years old, who was handsome and handsome. After sitting in front of the desk, he sat upright and straight. There was a book on the desk, and the man was also slowly reading. Xu Jie came up and was quite moved. This man seemed to have not heard it, looking through the book in his hand.
The hall on the sixth floor is much smaller than the hall on the first floor, with only eight tables. There are more wine, dishes, snacks, and incense. There are two maids standing beside them, waiting to serve the guests. The one who knows that everyone has not come out yet. There should be a room in the hall on the sixth floor.
Xu Jie chose a case in the middle and sat down, and the maid came forward to pour wine. The servant who took Xu Jie upstairs went to a small door behind the hall, and it was obvious that everyone was inside.
After a moment, the servant came out happily again.
Seeing the servant's joyful face, Xu Jie also knew that everyone understood the poem about the Shuritten poem. Giving this Shuritten poem to Cheng Rui was actually a little bit of a thought in Xu Jie's heart, and if this famous Shuritten poem is really talented, Xu Jie was somewhat impressed.
Not long after, Cheng Rui came up on the stairs with joy, looking at Xu Jie's seat, he stepped forward a few steps and said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, Brother Xu. Brother Xu is really amazing. I don't understand that thing now, I admire you."
Xu Jie nodded and smiled, and then heard Cheng Rui speak again: "Where are you all? Why haven't you come out yet?"
Cheng Rui was really a little stunned. Xu Jie raised his hand and signaled, saying, "Brother Cheng, please sit down first."
When Cheng Rui heard this, he found a seat beside Xu Jie and looked around. He suddenly saw the person who was calm and leisurely reading in front of him. His face changed. After sitting down, he never looked up again and said nothing.
Then he looked at the man in front of him and looked back at Cheng Rui who had just said blankly, frowned slightly, closed the book, shook his head gently, and gestured to the wine glass in front of him. A maid behind him rushed forward to pour wine.
Xu Jie also noticed some of the subtleties. He looked around and looked at the two of them, and guessed in his heart that they knew each other, but they were not easy to ask, so he picked up a piece of snack to taste. In the evening, he went to visit Li Zhi, the Minister of the Secretariat, and came out for a moment. He wandered around the street for some time, and was also hungry at this time.
It was also when Xu Jie came to see Li Zhi, so he chose the evening time, because he was afraid that Li Zhi would be busy with official business. However, Li Zhi did not say anything to leave Xu Jie for dinner.
The atmosphere was a bit abnormal. Although Xu Jie had just met Cheng Rui, he also knew that Cheng Rui was a bit unrestrained and had a good heart and was kind to others. At this time, Cheng Rui lowered his head and said nothing. Xu Jie guessed for a few times, and always felt that Cheng Rui was afraid of the person sitting in front of him.
Not long after, everyone Jie finally came out. However, everyone Jie came out at this time, not as cold as before in front of the servant, but smiled like a flower and had a graceful body. After coming forward for a blessing, he said softly: "Thank you, the three young men, for coming tonight."
The person who read the book in front of him stood up, bowed and replied, "You are so kind to you. It is an honor to be able to see everyone's beauty."
Then he saw Cheng Rui who was standing up and bowing to the man in front of him. Xu Jie was a little uncomfortable. Xu Jie had never seen this courtesan before. For example, when Xu Jie saw Yan Siyu and Xu Jie met twice, most of them sat quietly and received the gift. He raised his hand to express it, but did not get up and return the gift respectfully to him.
However, the man in front of him was still bowing down like this, which made Xu Jie a little uncomfortable, but he did not learn the man's movements, but just raised his hand to signal.
After hearing the bowing ceremony, everyone seemed to feel a little uncomfortable, and it was another blessing, and then they said, "I wonder if the three young masters should listen to the song first, or watch the sword dance first?"
Then the man in front of him replied again: "But it's up to everyone's arrangement."
When everyone heard this, they sat down and smiled and said, "Then I was rude. I just read a poem about reading the fragrance of lotus, clear water, cool wind, long summer, and brilliant literary style. I wonder which masterpiece was it?"
The man in front of him turned to look at Xu Jie after hearing this, and was silently reciting the palindrome poem, with a hint of envy on his face. He couldn't help but look at Xu Jie a few more times. It was obvious that he was very eye-catching in the palindrome poem he had just heard.
Xu Jie turned to look at Cheng Rui. Cheng Rui looked at Xu Jie's eyes. He knew that this poem was the poem Xu Jie gave him. However, after seeing him frowning, he replied softly: "Let everyone laugh, I'm showing off my ugly face."
When the man in front of him heard this, he was shocked at first, and then he actually smiled slightly: "Hmph, third brother, you have a good future, why don't you practice martial arts and kill the enemy?"
When Cheng Rui heard this, his face was extremely awkward and quickly said, "I understand that everyone, in fact, that poem was not written by me, but written by Brother Xu."
This time it was Xu Jie's turn to be surprised, surprised why Cheng Rui was so arrogant. A person with a erotic temperament should not be afraid of another person like this, or he should not be so timid in front of others.
Looking at the Jieyi again, he looked surprised and obviously didn't understand what was going on. It seemed that the three of them knew each other in this scene. The person in front was called the "third brother" of the person behind, and the person in the middle helped the person behind to write poems.
The person in front seemed to dislike the person behind, and he spoke out and exposed the matter of writing poetry on his behalf.
Then he heard the man in front of him say again: "If you don't learn, you won't be able to achieve martial arts without learning. You will also learn this evil way, which is embarrassing."
The man in front of him was already scolding Cheng Rui. Xu Jie frowned and explained: "This brother, I haven't thought too much about it just now. I just wanted to help Cheng Brother, why should I scold him like this in front of others?"
The man in front of him stood up and bowed, saying, "This brother is very talented and kind-hearted, but he also needs to be aware of others. In the following... Chengwen is the second brother of the ignorant person. Today he meets his brother, National Taiwan University talent. He is very honored to have seen him with courtesy!"
Xu Jie was a little confused. This man named Cheng Wen had just spoken out in person and scolded Cheng Rui in person, not giving his younger brother any face in front of others. At this time, he was courteous and honest and polite to treat him.
These two images changed too quickly. Xu Jie stood up and bowed, looked back at Cheng Rui, who bowed his head and said, and then replied: "Brother Cheng, you are polite. Xu Wenyuan, although he was just a first time meeting with Ling, he also felt that Ling's character is good, not as Brother Brother said, so he wanted to help. Everyone has a love for beauty, and it is harmless to achieve one or two."
