Fang Huai's attitude was kind, and he already showed his appreciation for Gu Chengyu in his words. When the people next to him saw him, they all looked envious and jealous of Gu Chengyu.
After Gu Chengyu paid homage to his teacher, he also met with two deputy examiners, the examiner and the promotion officer, and also received many words of encouragement and praise.
The officials also felt that Gu Chengyu had a bright future, so they showed a little enthusiasm, but this alone could make other officials jealous.
Gu Chengyu finally paid a visit, and the banquet was already halfway through. This was his honor as Jieyuan. Other officials also needed to pay homage, but those officials just went through the motions and said one or two words of encouragement.
Cope with it.
Among them, Min Feng and Fu Yanshan were also considered to be the most influential figures at the banquet. They are both young people. They are not very old. Besides, they are in the top three, so their future is inevitable. Even Huang Junheng attracted a lot of attention, after all, there is a person standing behind them.
, cannot be tolerated by everyone.
Gu Chengyu was eating vegetables and thinking about the opening of Juxiang Tower today, when he heard a deputy examiner suggest that everyone write poems to cheer up the meal.
"Congratulations to all of you for being on the second list! Today is the Deer Ming Banquet. You are all talented and elegant people. Why don't you write some poems to cheer up the fun!"
In fact, this has always been a part of the entertainment program of the Luming Banquet. There is no way for a group of people who don’t know each other to sit together. If everyone is eating and drinking at the banquet, it will inevitably be awkward, so poetry is needed to add to the fun! Anyway, a large group of literati gathered together,
They are basically poems and songs.
Composing poems at the Deer Ming Banquet is also a good way to become famous. If it is done well, it will surely spread. People will pass it on to each other, and the spread will be wider.
Another deputy examiner on the side immediately responded, "Excellent! What do you think, sir?"
As the examiner, Fang Huai naturally needed to express his opinion first. Of course he would not disagree, so all the officials unanimously approved it.
"Then let's take the Deer Ming Banquet as a poem! It's also suitable for the occasion!" Fang Huai suggested, occasionally glancing at Gu Chengyu.
Gu Chengyu didn't pay attention, but smiled and said nothing when he heard the words. He had to write poems about the Deer Ming Banquet every year, but there was nothing new. What he could write had been written badly by his predecessors, and even if he wrote it, it was rare to be brilliant.
But, will people have no countermeasures? Of course not. I am afraid that I have been thinking hard for several days, composed countless songs, picked the best one, and just dealt with it. This is what every student will prepare.
, because it will definitely be too late to wait until the day when the results are released to think about it.
"Then who comes first?" Fang Huai glanced at Gu Chengyu from the corner of his eyes, but did not name him.
When composing poems, you don’t need to be the first one to write poems. It depends on your own wishes.
"Then why don't you let Mr. Liu come to you?" Liu Haonan lost face in front of the inn more than a month ago, and of course he wanted to get it back. He was not in a hurry, but if he had been thinking about it for a few days, the poems he composed would still be readable.
Otherwise, he would not have become one of the three great talents in the south of the Yangtze River, even though there is some falsehood in him.
Gu Chengyu is not interested in this. He is thinking about what to bring to Gu Wan when he goes home. After they go back, they will choose a good day in the shortest possible time.
After all, Sun Xian is not young, and it will be just in time to get married when he passes the exam. If he doesn't set a date early, he is afraid that they will not be able to make it. No one has been to the capital, so who knows when they will go back?
The niece in the family, eldest Ya, got married last year! The others can wait a few more years, and Er Ya is only thirteen!
It just so happened that after going round and round, Da Ya married Dongzi brother from the Huichun Hall in the county town.
Originally, my sister-in-law Fang asked a matchmaker to find a matchmaker for Da Lang and Da Ya, but she never found the one she liked. After all, the threshold of the Gu family was high, and it was not easy to find a suitable match.
For such a high and low job, there has been no success. The fourth brother opened a medical clinic in the town, and he usually went to the Huichun Hall in the county town to buy anything he needed. After going back and forth, the fourth brother became familiar with Dongzi.
He felt that Dongzi was a good person and progressive, but there was a sick old woman at home before, and she almost wiped out all the money in the family.
But my wife is fine now, otherwise she wouldn’t have thought of telling Da Ya to him. Although Dongzi’s family is living a hard life, the Gu family is not helpless. People are so clever, so let’s borrow some money when the time comes.
If two people start a small business and work hard, they can live a good life.
After coming back and discussing it with their family, the Gu family thought it was okay, but Fang was a little dissatisfied. However, in the end, Gu Chengyu suggested that they find a chance to see each other, but Da Ya was relieved.
Da Ya used to be a bit autistic. In recent years, her family life has become better, and she has gotten much better. However, she still doesn't like to talk, but she is very hard-working, not to mention how good-looking she is, and she is still somewhat delicate.
Both parties were satisfied, and Fang had to agree. Now Dongzi is no longer working as a waiter at Huichun Hall. He opened a small restaurant in the county town. This was Gu Chengyu's idea. It was the kind of fast food restaurant in his previous life. Although it is a bit tiring.
, but business is pretty good!
When Da Ya got married, Gu Chengyu gave her a hundred acres of land and some jewelry. He followed this standard for every niece of the Gu family who got married.
Dalang was talking about the girl from the grocery store in the town. They were living well after they got married. Gu Chengyu thought that Magistrate Chiang's performance would definitely be excellent this year. He was afraid that his position would be transferred this time. Then Dalang was not suitable to follow him anymore.
Chiang has become the prefect, and I don't know if Dalang has any plans.
As for Erlang
Gu Chengyu was thinking about the future arrangements for his family, but he didn't expect that his unconcerned appearance would catch the eyes of some new candidates.
After all, he is Jieyuan, so he naturally attracts a lot of attention. No matter whether it is a candidate or an official, they will not really leave Gu Chengyu behind.
In fact, Gu Chengyu didn't stay in a daze for long, but by now, he had already composed several poems for the banquet, and everyone's enthusiasm was unprecedentedly high. They were all poems that had been prepared before, so it would be quick to recite them. Some people can compose them.
The poem also received a lot of praise.
"Gu Jieyuan, while everyone is in high poetic mood at this time, Gu Jieyuan will also write a poem for everyone to read Gu Jieyuan's masterpiece."
A scholar had just finished writing a poem and received some good reviews. But when he saw Gu Chengyu sitting on his seat with no expression, he was a little angry.
Gu Jieyuan is so irrational. Could it be that he thinks his poems are hard to read?
"Yes! Gu Jieyuan is a quick thinker, and we want to see it. Before, everyone was just throwing out ideas, but now Gu Jieyuan should have brewed a masterpiece that will be handed down for generations. Everyone is looking forward to it!"
I have to say that this statement is very ironic. At the annual Lu Ming Banquet, no one from Jieyuan has ever made a masterpiece that will be handed down from generation to generation.
When Gu Chengyu came back to his senses, he saw the examinee looking at him with a smile on his face, but Gu Chengyu could see that he was only smiling.
In fact, this is not surprising. If he understands Yuan, it is inevitable that some people will be jealous. Isn't there a saying that people who are not envied by others are mediocre?
The seats at the banquet were all arranged according to ranking. Next to Gu Chengyu was Min Feng, and next to him was Fu Yanshan. Sun Xian and Ye Zhiqiu were still some distance away from Gu Chengyu, so they couldn't remind him.
