Yunmeng Pavilion opened for business today, and of course held activities for the male and female nuns who came to find love.
One of the activities was very interesting. The male and female monks who participated in the activity anonymously wrote five poems from their hearts on five pieces of colored rice paper.
Make a mark and put it on a big table. The poems written by the male practitioners are placed on the left table, and the poems written by the female practitioners are placed on the right table. Then everyone selects the poems.
If one person can pick all five poems written by the other person, he will receive free entertainment from Yunmeng Pavilion. The two will be included in the tearoom where they can meet alone and enjoy free food and drinks.
If not all are selected, it can also reflect the fate of the two people or their understanding of each other.
Murong Hai originally took Ruan Ying to visit Yunmeng Pavilion, but the other three men were on a blind date with Ruan Ying after all, and they refused to give up their blind date easily.
What's more, there are not many opportunities to visit the owner of Yunmeng Pavilion. It would be even better if he could meet other suitable female nuns on the way.
Therefore, Gan Yuyang, Situ Shi, and Wu Yuan had this mentality. They clearly noticed that Murong Hai was interested in Ruan Ying, so they still followed him.
Murong Hai was a little helpless, but this was all his own fault, and he couldn't blame others.
The poetry talk event was about to begin, and he felt that this was a good opportunity to show off the other three people, so he wanted to invite everyone to participate.
I came to the flower hall to find other people. As soon as I entered the pavilion, I felt the strange atmosphere here. Tang Yue stood alone and talked nonstop.
Shang Fanling was okay, but the others looked hopeless. When they saw him coming in, their eyes shone with a brilliance they had never seen before.
Luo Zhenxi said: "Brother Murong, you came to us, but do you have any special activities?" He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, like a lump in his throat, like a thorn in the quilt, and he couldn't sit still for a moment.
Murong Hai said blankly: "Yes, we have a poetry meeting here, I wonder if you are interested."
Tu Zhenghui said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, we are particularly interested. Let's go now."
The men and women in the pavilion all stood up. Dongfang Heng said: "Brother Murong, please lead the way. We especially want to see the special activities of Yunmeng Pavilion."
Murong Hai couldn't figure it out. Why didn't he know that his family was so good at work? Even these high-ranking disciples, who were always picky, were looking forward to it.
But of course he was happy when someone came to spend money, "Please follow me."
Although Yunmeng Pavilion will provide free wine and food to the young lovers who are drawn, when choosing poems, the wine and food provided next to them are not free.
If you want to write poems and participate in the marriage, monks need to pay a fee for the peach blossom blessing paper. Yunmeng Pavilion can make a lot of money.
The monks were either in groups or alone, all looking through the colorful rice paper on the table.
In order to prevent the monks from being able to identify people based on their handwriting, the poems were handed over to the attendants of Yunmeng Pavilion, who transcribed the poems. All the fonts were in standard fonts.
Tang Yue had already put on a veil at this time, but her reputation was so great that many people saw her here and hoped that they could pick her poems.
The three people who had just been tortured by her speech were afraid that if they chose her poems, they would be educated again.
Murong Hai searched carefully, thinking about Ruan Ying's character and what poems she would like.
He saw a sentence, "White dew grows on the jade steps, and it invades the stockings for a long time at night. But under the crystal curtain, I look at the autumn moon." (from Li Si, Tang Dynasty: Li Bai)
I intuitively felt that this was the poem Ruan Ying would like. Although she looked careless, she actually liked such poems that could express the delicate feelings between men and women. They were very subtle, but beautiful.
He took another poem of a similar style and carefully selected it according to her preferences. After a while, he selected five.
These poems all expressed the woman's longing for the man, and he remembered that these poems came from the collection of poems in Ruan Ying's room.
In fact, Murong Hai and Ruan Ying were childhood sweethearts. The Murong family and the Ruan family have known each other for generations. They grew up together. He also entered Ruan Ying's boudoir and saw the furnishings in her room.
He handed the five pieces of paper he selected to the steward, "These are the poems I selected."
He handed in the poem, then sat drinking tea and observing Ruan Ying's actions.
Today she is wearing a light yellow dress, with a hibiscus flower on her head and a golden walking sway. When she walks around, she sparkles.
There are many beauties in Yunmeng Pavilion today. Senior Sister Shang is beautiful and refined, and Tang Yue is even more stunning in appearance. But in his eyes, he can actually only see one person.
He watched Ruan Ying grow up and see her become a beautiful girl. He was also sad because of her nonsense, but in the end he couldn't bear to be angry with her.
He can only do some strange actions as revenge, hoping that she will also be hurt for him.
After many years like this, he now feels that he is the only one who is angry, while Ruan Ying is unaware of it and continues to live her carefree life.
Suddenly, he felt very boring, thinking that if she was also embarrassed because of him, he would have some balance in his heart.
Ruan Ying also took a step ahead of the others and submitted the poems she selected. The steward had already received a lot of poems and began to check the results.
The steward said to everyone: "The first lucky male cultivator appeared in our field, and the five poems he selected were all from a female cultivator.
Yunmeng Pavilion will send its most sincere blessings and hope that they can form a relationship."
Yunmeng Pavilion will not publish the names of the lovers, so that if the two of them fail, it will not be too embarrassing. Such a move is still very considerate.
Everyone was very surprised. This person was so fast and he was selected so quickly.
According to the rules of poetry selection, it is indeed true that the sooner you pick out an appointment, the later you go, the more poems will be taken away, and it is possible that you will not be able to collect five lines of poems.
The steward added: "Coincidentally, the woman who selected these five poems also selected all the poems of this male character. These two are really a match made in heaven."
Murong Hai was shocked. He was convinced that he was the first person to submit poems, so the manager would check his results in advance.
Could it be that he didn't choose?
But the boy still walked up to him, bowed to his young master, and took him to a compartment in the waterside pavilion.
He lifted up the gauze, and it was Ruan Ying sitting inside.
Only then did Murong Hai realize that Ruan Ying had chosen the poem he had written, and she gradually felt infinite joy in her heart.
Ruan Ying: "You are not blind, you know this is my choice."
Then she took out the five pieces of paper in her hand and chuckled, "I also found your poems."
Murong Hai's eyes were a little wet. He knelt down on the mat, poured a cup of tea for Ruan Ying, and said, "I still don't understand you after all."
Ruan Ying put away her smile and said, "When you see beautiful women, will you treat them specially?"
Her expression at this time was unprecedentedly serious. No one who interacted with Ruan Ying would have thought that she had such a side.
Murong Hai put the tea in front of him, "I don't know how."
Ruan Ying was silent for a moment, "I am not a smart woman, and I have a bad personality. I often get into trouble, but I also have my own ideas and persistence. Do you understand what I mean?"
Murong Hai solemnly said: "I swear to Heaven that I will treat you wholeheartedly in this life."
