My Wife, Something is Wrong

  Chapter 34 Brother-in-law is really amazing

  The bright moon hangs high, and the sky is full of stars.

  Two boats are sailing side by side in the lake.

  The surface of the lake is rippling with blue waves, and the sky is full of stars and moons falling into it, like the bright Milky Way, dotted with stars, which is too beautiful to behold.

  Among the beautiful scenery of the lake at night, several young girls chatted about gossip about Mocheng with sweet smiles.

   On the other side of the boat, it was so quiet.

  Bai Ling was dressed in pink, standing at the stern of the boat, holding a penny, dancing with blue hair and fluttering clothes, like a fairy in the lake.

  Luo Qingzhou stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the attic in the middle of the lake not far away, silent.

  Xia Chan sat in the middle of the boat, holding a sword in her arms, as cold as ice and snow.

  Zhu'er glanced this way and saw someone standing motionless on the bow of the boat, she couldn't help but sneered: "My lord, aren't you seasick? Why are you still standing there? Are you not afraid of falling into the lake?"

  Luo Qingzhou withdrew his gaze, glanced at her, then at the girl holding a sword sitting in the middle of the boat, and replied, "Who said you can't stand when you get seasick? I don't get dizzy when I stand, but I get dizzy when I sit."

   Several girls were amused.

  Zhu'er said angrily: "Miss, my uncle did it on purpose, he obviously doesn't get seasick."

  Qin Weimo smiled and said: "Maybe my uncle usually suffers from seasickness, but today there is a distinguished guest, so he won't get seasick."

"Humph."

  Pearl pursed her lips and snorted, but didn't speak again.

  Since my lady defends that guy, what else can she say.

Song Zixi, who was sitting next to Qin Weimo, suddenly said: "Weimo, I saw a sentence in a painting the day before yesterday and thought it was quite interesting, but I don't know where it came from or who made it, and I don't understand the meaning. You read a lot. , I wonder if you can help me answer it?"

   As she said this, she glanced at the boy in the other boat.

   It was obvious that she was going to test a certain scholar to see if he was really as talented as her friend said, not to show off.

  Qin Weimo naturally knew what it meant, and said with a smile, "Zi Xi, then tell me."

   "Ahem..."

  Song Zixi cleared his throat, and after attracting the attention of everyone on board, Fang pretended to read: "The way of great learning lies in Ming Mingde, being close to the people, and ending in the ultimate kindness..."

  While she was reading, she shook her head like a teacher.

  Qin Weimo smiled slightly after hearing her finish reading, looked at the young man on the other boat and said, "Brother-in-law, have you heard this sentence?"

  In fact, as long as the scholar who is preparing to take the exam will know this sentence.

   After all, this sentence is from the compulsory reading of the imperial examination, one of the four books.

  However, for a woman who does not need to obtain fame, it is not easy to know this sentence.

  In this era, nine out of ten people have never read a book, or even illiterate.

  So for women, knowing some characters, reading some books, and even knowing a few poems are all things to boast and be proud of.

  Luo Qingzhou felt a little bored.

But since it was the second lady who asked the question, he naturally would not lose face, and replied: "This statement comes from "Book of Rites, Great Learning". It is said that it was written by Zeng Zi, but it should be written by some Confucianists in the later period. It means, The purpose of the university is to promote the upright character, to make people abandon the old and make new ones, and to make people reach the most perfect state... To put it simply, it is to demonstrate the bright virtues that everyone has, and then promote themselves to others. So that everyone can remove pollution and renew themselves, and strive for excellence, to achieve the most perfect state and remain unchanged..."

   On two small boats in the lake.

  All the girls looked at him quietly, listening to his eloquent answers.

Under the moonlight, the figure standing at the bow of the boat was tall and straight, with a handsome face, clear and resolute eyes, and a sonorous voice, neither humble nor overbearing, without the weakness and hypocrisy of other scholars, nor the inferiority and cowardice of other son-in-law. With his demeanor and temperament, the hearts of all the young girls who saw it swayed, like a boat getting off a lake, and the stars are shining.

  The sword-holding girl closest to him also looked at him expressionlessly.

  After he finished answering, there was a moment of silence on the two small boats.

   Immediately, Qin Weimo broke the silence, and said with a smile, "Zixi, what's the answer? Is it what you think?"

  Song Zixi curled his lips and said: "It's so-so, it's just something in the book, and readers should know it all."

  Qin Weimo smiled and looked at the young man on the other boat, and praised softly: "Brother-in-law is amazing."

  Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said nothing.

   Bai Ling who was punting at the bow of the boat also smiled, and imitated her tone and said, "Young master is very powerful."

  Luo Qingzhou looked away and ignored her.

  Two small boats rowed slowly on the lake, and soon came to the lotus bushes.

  Although it is winter, the water in the lake is warm, and the lotus bushes are in full bloom all year round, white, pink, and red. It is the most beautiful scenery in Tingyuyuan on a moonlit night.

  Every time Qin Weimo comes here, he likes to play among the lotus bushes, pick some lotus pods, break off some petals, play in the water by the boat for a while, his childlike innocence is still alive, and his mood will be much better.

  At this time, Meng Yulan suddenly asked again: "Young Master Luo, I have a question, can you answer it for me?"

  Luo Qingzhou looked at her, thinking about her brother's masculinity, and said, "Ms. Meng, please tell me."

Meng Yulan's brows were full of heroic spirit, and he said in a clear voice: "A gentleman is harmonious but not indiscriminate; strong is correct. Change; strong and correct. I don’t know how to explain this sentence?”

Luo Qingzhou looked concentrating, and replied: "This sentence comes from Chapter 10 of "The Doctrine of the Mean", which means that people with high moral character are gentle and do not follow the trend, this is the real strength. Staying neutral and unbiased, this is the real strength. Strong. When the country’s politics is peaceful, it does not change its ambition. This is true strength. When the country’s politics is dark, it insists on integrity and would rather die unchanged. This is true strength.”

There was a hint of surprise in Meng Yulan's eyes, she nodded and said: "Young master Luo is really familiar with reading, the meaning of the words and sentences in the Four Books and Five Classics are all familiar by heart, and he can easily remember the chapters clearly, admire, admire .”

  Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands, and heard what she said in her heart: 【Weimo really didn't lie, this guy is indeed talented, and the things in the book probably won't trouble him, I wonder how good his poetry is? 】

  Meng Yulan thought in her heart, and winked at Song Zixi next to her.

Song Zixi nodded slightly, and suddenly said: "Mr. Luo, I heard from Wei Mo that you know poetry very well. I got the first two sentences of a seven-character quatrain a while ago, but the last two sentences are not satisfactory no matter what I think about it. Can you pick it up for me, son?"

  Luo Qingzhou glanced at Second Miss Qin, and thought to himself: I have only confronted Second Miss, how does she know that I understand poetry? Is it to elevate me on purpose? Or to show off that she has a talented brother-in-law?

  It is rare for my sister-in-law to brag about her new son-in-law and brother-in-law in front of her friends.

  Since the second lady maintains his image so much, he naturally won't embarrass her. He cupped his hands and said, "Ms. Song, please tell me. I will try, but it may not satisfy Ms. Song."

Meng Yulan smiled and said: "There is no perfect poetry in the world that is completely satisfactory. Most of them are modified and revised before they are barely finished. Those that are occasionally obtained by skillful hands are rare treasures, such as rare, very few, Mr. Luo But it’s okay to do it.”

Song Zixi recited it silently in his heart, and finally read it: "There is no youth in the New Year, and I was surprised to see grass sprouts at the beginning of February... These are these two sentences. I continued a few songs, but I am not very satisfied with them. Luo Young Master, Wei Mo, Yu Lan, you can all try."

  The two girls beside them frowned slightly, thinking in their hearts.

  Luo Qingzhou silently recited the first two sentences several times in his heart, thinking secretly in his heart, his eyes wandered casually on the lake, and suddenly saw a pear tree not far away by the lake.

  The evening wind blew, and the blooming flowers on the pear tree fluttered one after another, flying lightly like snowflakes, passing through the scarlet railings, and falling into the gazebo next to it.

   His heart moved, and he had the last two sentences.

  At this moment, Bai Ling, who was standing on the bow of the boat and punting the boat, suddenly smiled and said, "My lord, if you can't tell me, you will lose your chance next month."

"what chance?"

  Qin Weimo asked curiously.

   Others also looked at her curiously.

  Bai Ling's eyes flickered slightly, and he said with a smile: "Second Miss, let's ask my uncle."

  Luo Qingzhou didn't answer. He looked at Miss Song and said, "I came up with two sentences, but I don't know if it fits with the first two sentences. Miss Song can comment on it."

   Several girls heard this and immediately looked at him.

  The sword-holding girl next to him also looked at him coldly.

  Luo Qingzhou thought about it again, and then read out: "There is no youth in the New Year, and I was surprised to see grass buds in early February. Baixue thinks spring is late, so she wears garden trees as flying flowers."

As soon as she finished reading, Meng Yulan's eyes lit up, and she immediately clapped her hands in praise: "Good poem! As soon as the last two lines are uttered, the atmosphere and art of the whole poem are greatly enhanced in an instant! Mr. Luo, it's amazing, really amazing !"

   Immediately said again: "This poem title..."

  Luo Qingzhou said: "The title of the poem is called Chun Xue, how about it?"

   "Spring Snow?"

  Meng Yulan tasted it, and immediately clapped her hands: "What a spring snow! Once the title of this poem comes out, the artistic conception of the whole poem will be improved! Mr. Luo is really talented!"

   "Bai Xue thinks spring is too late, so she wears garden trees as flying flowers... Chun Xue..."

Song Zixi murmured several times, and Fang looked suspiciously at the young man at the bow and said, "Mr. Luo, the first two sentences were written by you too, right? If not, then the last two sentences are too harmonious." Harmony, right? It’s just one piece, without a trace of splicing.”

  Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said: "The first two sentences were not written by me, and the last two sentences are just random, so I shouldn't deserve such absurd praise from the girl."

  Beside Qin Weimo raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a light smile, "Zi Xi, now you know how powerful my brother-in-law is?"

  This girl who is as delicate and beautiful as Lin Daiyu has a little complacency and pride in her tone.

  Song Zixi was completely convinced, and slightly bowed his head to the young man at the bow of the boat, and said, "Young Master Luo is really talented, I admire you."

  Luo Qingzhou bowed his head again and bowed his hands in return.

  Zhu'er on the boat also thought to himself: "I didn't expect this guy to be so powerful. No wonder my lady treats him differently. Maybe he can really win the first prize in the exam and feel proud for our Qin family."

  Bailing was supporting the boat at the stern, looking at the young man at the bow, his beautiful eyes sparkled, and he stopped teasing.

  The girl with a sword sitting in the middle of the boat was still as cold as ice, expressionless.

   "Clatter..."

  At this moment, there was a sudden sound of thumping and splashing in the lotus bushes.

   It turned out that a flock of white gulls was disturbed and jumped up in panic, and some of them rushed towards the two small boats!

   Several girls exclaimed in shock, and the boat shook.

  Bai Ling's expression changed, and suddenly he yelled "Oops", and the boat under his feet suddenly swayed and tilted violently.

  The girl holding the sword sitting in the middle of the boat seemed to be thinking about something. She was caught off guard for a while, and suddenly leaned back. With a "plop", she fell into the lake and disappeared...

  Bai Ling immediately exclaimed from the bow: "Oh my lord, Xia Chan fell into the water, she can't swim!"

  Luo Qingzhou glanced at her, and jumped down with a "plop".
