Chapter 1688: The old man is brave, the ancient and talented man is aspiring to a thousand miles (please subscribe and vote at the end of the month)
The young ladies on the flower boats were watching the noisy scene under their noses with great interest.
My eyes were focused on the place illuminated by the lights to see if there was any handsome young man.
There is no way, no matter how old they are, as long as they have some talent, they are willing to call themselves talents or poets.
Just like over there, there is an old poet who wears a cane and needs help when walking. He is asking his servants to help him send his hard work to the peony garden.
Then he tilted his head, stroked his long beard, squinted his presbyopic eyes, and walked to the shore with his cane trembling slightly.
Then he stroked his long, snow-white beard, and with an expression that every man could understand, he looked at the beautiful ladies on the six flower boats.
Even though most of the young ladies were old Si Ji, they were still a little overwhelmed by the presbyopia of this ancient man.
I also admire from the bottom of my heart this ancient man who dares to face the pursuit of his own needs in life.
Seeing this scene, many talented people in their forties and fifties couldn't help but praise him.
"The old man has his ambition to reach a thousand miles; the martyr is still ambitious in his old age. What this old man did today is a model for our generation..."
"My dear friend, your words are polite. When I am over seventy years old, I will definitely have the ambition to board a ship."
"Seventy years old, hey hey... Brother Yu, listen to my sister, brother Xian, you seem to have some waist problems during this period..."
"Brother, please stop talking nonsense. Wait, although we brothers are well-connected, how could my wife tell you this..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Let go, Brother Yu, I am not the kind of person you think.
My brother and sister said this when they were chatting with a bunch of handkerchiefs. My wife was also present at the time.
The reason why I say this is because I’m worried about your face, brother Xian, because after all, my brother and sister have had too many handkerchiefs..."
"Wow, wow, I'm so angry, those old ladies are just talking nonsense.
Brother, don’t listen to her nonsense, I must go upstairs today, otherwise I won’t be able to escape this humiliation.”

Cui Luoyang and others were sitting on a viewing platform in the Peony Garden near the bank of Luoshui River.
Not only can you examine and size up the lanterns that are gradually rising in the peony garden, but you can also admire the young ladies blooming on the flower boats.
Well, of course you can also enjoy the lights on the south bank of Luoshui River. However, the population on the south bank of Luoyang is really a bit withered, and it is far less popular than the one in the north of Luoyang City.
However, there are a lot of boats going in and out of Luoyang, and many of them are carried by high-ranking officials who think they have little literary talent, or have tigers in their families, or are rich gentry and wealthy businessmen.
They just came to watch and join in the fun, and they would definitely not end up anyway.
At this time, there were already some works that had been praised and praised by poets and poets, and they had been presented to the viewing platform.
However, in the eyes of Cui Luoyang and others, they are mostly rubbish full of flashy words, or some mediocre works.
More than ten songs came in one after another, but only one was finally selected. When the poet, who was over forty years old, heard that he had been selected.
I couldn't help laughing wildly among the crowd, and strode towards the pier where the flower boat was docked under the eyes of envy and jealousy.
At this moment, there was a sudden uproar among the crowd, and another masterpiece appeared.
After shouting several times in succession, a follower quickly shouted loudly, "My master, that is my master's masterpiece."
"Master, master, you have been selected..."
Many people's eyes followed the running follower, and finally, they all saw the follower running to the bank of the Luo River.
The old man with a crutch, a hunched back, and white beard and hair stood next to him and excitedly reported the good news.
"I, I... it's true, hahaha... I didn't expect that I have participated in the Luoyang Peony Festival for so many years, and finally the day to board the ship has arrived.
Come on, why don’t you help me board the ship? I’m going to this ship.”
"..." Countless talents from the Central Plains, poets and poets were all delighted to see this grandpa's talent boarding the ship, and everyone worked harder and harder.
Some people even started to modify the words and sentences in their works on the spot, trying to make their works more perfect.
The owner of the flower boat chosen by this old talent with snow-like hair and beard had a frightened expression on his face.
My dear mother, you have to hold on to this old and talented man of your grandfather's generation, and don't get so happy that you get mad at me on my flower boat.
Thinking of this, I quickly warned the ladies in Huazhizhaozhan to be more reserved and not to make any big moves.
It is necessary to ensure that the elderly receive meticulous care, and at the same time, the elderly talents must not be overly stimulated. The elderly talents must be allowed to spend the day of the Luoyang Peony Festival in peace.
The old talent finally arrived at the designated flower boat with the help of his entourage.
At this time, the two older ladies quickly boarded the boat to greet them.
Unexpectedly, the old man with a stick and pestle suddenly became furious. "What do you mean, you are bullying me into old age?"
"Captain, please quickly ask those two pink and green ladies to come over and serve this talented man. I look a little older, but in fact I am very energetic. Don't use the old and slutty ones to bully my old eyesight."
The captain had a stern look on his face and could only ask the two young ladies with dark faces to step back, and let the two most tender and green young ladies come over to help him.
The old talent smiled brightly, and his hearty and joyful laughter echoed along the banks of Luoshui River.
"Haha... Man, just as my aunt expected, even if he is old, he still likes young girls who are green and tender."
"That's right, let's... Hey, wow, sisters, look over there. Over there, that little brother with red lips and white teeth and a face as beautiful as a crown jewel is so cute."
Hearing the screams of those nymphomaniacs inside the flower boat, the several hook-and-rail thugs standing on the deck had disdain on their faces.
"Haha... Women are indeed fickle. I said before that I like mature and stable ones, but as a result, I started to go crazy when I saw the green and tender pretty face."

Cui Luoyang watched dumbfounded as the old man with hair and beard like snow, who was in his seventies if not eighty, and with only a handful of bones left in his body, walked in with the support of two green and tender young ladies.
The flower boat.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a ship not far away, slowly heading this way.
Cui Luoyang looked at it intently and let out a light sigh.
This ship is a rare large ship on Luoshui. It is three stories high, and the most strange thing is that the second floor is completely obscured by white gauze.
