Chapter 232 Awesome and upright
“Dad, is the Dragon King's Banquet delicious?” Si Niang couldn't help but licked the corner of her mouth.
Liu Ji thought of the longing looks of the scholars in the front hall and said uncertainly: "It must be delicious. If it's not delicious, can it be called the Dragon King's Banquet?"
Si Niang immediately raised her little hand: "I want to participate!"
The little girl thought that anyone could participate in the competition.
Liu Ji said that several big families in the city had already rounded up the team and had been practicing a month ago. Ordinary people could just take a look.
Siniang sighed, "Okay."
But it would be great if you can join in the fun!
Because what they heard was the righteousness of the scholars, and what they saw was the prosperous future of the prosperous country.
There were many people who got up early to endorse, and 90% of the people in the inn were scholars who came to take the government examination. Not long after dawn, the good place of the patio was discovered, and many scholars came one after another.
“The sound of reading is so nice.” The grocery shopping lady praised.
The sound of reading aloud is like the sound of bells and drums (same sound as sweet).
Under his leadership, everyone squeezed through the people on the river bank and came to a big tree on the east side of the stone bridge.
Someone who had an extraordinarily cheerful personality came over and read an article with them.
Because Qin Yao was still sleeping, she walked in and out of the house as quietly as a thief. She could not help but grin when she saw a row of Da Lang, Er Lang, San Lang and Si Niang sitting at the door reading quietly in the morning.
“Aniang, many big brothers are studying with us this morning.”
Under Qin Yao's suspicious eyes, Liu Ji proved with practical actions that he was seriously planning for today's dragon boat race.
Liu Ji replied: "The game starts on time at noon, but we have to go early. If we go late, we might not be able to find a good seat!"
Liu Ji asked if he wanted to ask Liu Li to come with him. Qin Yao nodded and asked him to ask.
“Are you afraid of heights?” Qin Yao asked the smallest twin in her hand.
As soon as Qin Yao said this, a burst of cheers erupted in the room. Qin Yao quickly made a booing gesture, and the four children laughed and covered their mouths.
Otherwise, if there were other guests entering or leaving the guest room at this moment, they would have to step over the four siblings.
Qin Yao asked doubtfully: "Are you not happy?"
The four brothers and sister shook their heads stiffly, tried their best to smile, and said numbly: "Happy."
When asked, Liu Ji showed an ecstatic expression of "You understand me", "Yes!"
“Be quiet and don't disturb other guests.” Qin Yao warned warmly.
Fortunately, Qin Yao chose a room on the first floor facing the courtyard of the inner courtyard yesterday, and there were stone steps to sit on.
Until the sound of reading stopped, the people who stopped at the door of the inn reluctantly dispersed.
Limited by his height, he looked over and felt like he was being submerged by human legs. It was so scary!
Qin Yao held Sanlang in one hand and Siniang in the other. She glanced at the strong tree in front of her, and thought of Liu Ji's inconsistent temper. She raised her eyebrows in disbelief, "You don't want to Shall we go up the tree?"
Even both sides of the river are covered with human heads.
“Okay, get ready, let's set out to watch the dragon boat race.”
Four brothers and sisters: “Okay!!”
Those who broke the sky were early the next day, just to quickly read the early reading, and then went to find a good position to watch the dragon boat.
In fact, the villain in my heart is shouting crazily: Thank you, I can't sleep at all in the morning!
But earlier than them was Liu Ji, who deserved the title of King of Volume in Kaiyang County Academy!
He finished his homework in advance, borrowed a vegetable basket from Mrs. Zou who managed the kitchen by brushing his face, and went out to buy the vegetables.
The four brothers and sister nodded, but they couldn't stop the happiness in their eyes.
But it was no challenge to her.
This is an atmosphere of morning reading that the Dalang brothers and sisters have never experienced before. They were immersed in it for a while and forgot where they were.
“That side is specially reserved for the prefect and ladies from the city's aristocratic families to watch the game.”
I took out the groceries I bought this morning and put the rest in the room.
Qin Yao didn't do that trick of you letting me and I letting you. She ate quickly, finishing in three or two bites. She stood up and backed out of her seat. She waved to Da Lang to sit down and eat slowly. She smiled and listened to what happened in the morning.
But it's such a rare experience, why don't you write another diary?
“Come back tonight and I will teach you how to write a diary. Let's record this special day.” Qin Yao said with a smile.
Can Qin Yao still refuse?
“When will the game start?” Qin Yao asked Liu Ji.
“I've asked about it, of course I know it!” Liu Ji said sarcastically, “But I also know a great location. Come with me.”
Dalang's sharp eyes found that there was an empty platform next to the stone bridge. He was about to call his parents over, but Liu Ji, who understood his thoughts, said:
“Well, then go to bed and wake up, finish your morning reading and then go over.”
By the time Qin Yao and others arrived at the competition point, the best viewing position - the stone bridge above the finish line, was already crowded with people.
“Auntie, let's go?” Dalang, Erlang, Sanlang, and Siniang looked at Qin Yao expectantly.
Liu Li asked: "How do you know?"
The two sides looked at each other inadvertently, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but raise slightly.
“Your dad is really a talent!”
There were also people under the tree. Dalang looked at his father distrustfully, "You can't even see them."
Qin Yao secretly sighed, it felt a bit like zombies attacking the city.
They are hawkers who get up early to do business, women who buy vegetables, hard-working people who are getting ready to go to work, and officials who have just come off their posts.
Maybe they didn't understand what those words meant, but they were inexplicably attracted to them.
I thought I was early enough, but I didn't expect that everyone thought of going together. They all thought they could predict others' predictions, but one of them left earlier than the other.
The expressions of both the dragon and the phoenix who were talking excitedly changed.
The tender children's voice sounded, and the scholars looked around in surprise. They saw four little children, holding books in hand, sitting in a row on the stone steps. They were also reading forgetfully.
Liu Li readily agreed and called Da Zhuang. The two families happily left the inn and walked towards the competition venue in the south of the city.
People passing by the inn door couldn't help but stop when they heard the loud and neat sound of reading.
There were only four benches, and Liu Ji consciously stood up to eat. Dalang gave up his seat to Qin Yao and squatted on the ground to eat. Anyway, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to pay too much attention.
It can be seen that I am really happy this time.
So one passed the word to two, and the second to four, and the whole courtyard was filled with the sound of reading.
The morning sun rises, and the entire city is shrouded in golden light, shining brightly.
Dalang and Erlang almost choked on the food they had not yet swallowed.
When the family gathered around the table to have breakfast, the twins were very excited and told Qin Yao what happened to them this morning.
Qin Yao looked up at the branches above her head. The nearest branch was more than four meters above the ground, and most people couldn't climb it.
The brother and sister said excitedly: "Don't be afraid!"
"Okay, let's go up then!" As Qin Yao finished speaking, she threw her hands up. Amidst Liu Li and Da Zhuang's frightened inhales, San Lang and Si Niang fell steadily into the middle of the tree branch.
