Chapter 218 Asking the Wrong Person

After Zhang San drank the soup, he felt that the taste of the soup was really wonderful. It was worth it to be able to drink such a delicious soup in his life.

The meal I had with the eldest lady at Zhaixing Tower today was really enough for him to go back and joking with his brothers for a while.

Half a quarter of an hour later, four people ate five dishes and one soup, and Zhang San even ate four bowls of rice. He was embarrassed to beg for food again. If it weren't for the eldest lady and the others, he would have eaten two bowls of rice. The dishes in Zhaixinglou were really served very well, and people would want to eat more and more.

After dinner, the waiter served a pot of tea.

Chen Wan was drinking tea and planned to sit for a while before leaving.

There were two tables behind her, and three scholars wearing long gowns and scarves sat.

As soon as the three scholars entered the Zhaixing Tower, they kept looking at Chen Wan and the others' table.

Zhang San had already noticed the three of them. Seeing that they were still looking here, they were sneaky and suspicious, so he untied the sword on his waist and placed it on the table.

When the three scholars saw Zhang San put the sword on the table, they hurriedly withdrew their gaze, and those who drank tea and those who drank food were eating.

"What's wrong?" Chen Wan asked.

There should be a reason why Zhang San suddenly made this move.

Zhang San pointed with his chin, and replied: "There are three men who look like scholars over there, who are always sneaking and looking at our table."

"Oh?" Chen Wan turned her head and looked, and saw that there were indeed three scholars not far away. The three of them were really burying their heads at this moment and did not look here. They might have been frightened by Zhang San's sword.

However, what do they always look at their table? There is nothing good to look at their table. Suddenly, in the aftermath, she glanced at Qiu Ju who was looking at the three scholars, and smiled and said, "I understand, they must be watching Qiu Ju."

Speaking of which, Qiu Ju has reached the age when a woman should get married. She is quite good-looking. It is just as beautiful as a flower and jade. It is normal for people to peek frequently.

"Madam, don't joke with me," Qiuju said with a pout, "They are looking at me! It's clearly looking at my wife."

According to her, the scholars were clearly looking at her wife, because the wife had become popular in this imperial city. Many scholars admired her very much! It is said that some people wrote poems to praise her!

"What do they think of me?" What is she good at, a married person? Shouldn't a young man look at a young girl?

"They are here." Seeing that the three scholars actually got up and walked over, Zhang San quickly raised his vigilance and placed his hand on the sword.

Chen Wan turned her head and looked at them. Seeing the three scholars, she really walked towards them with a look of embarrassment.

When they walked to her, the three scholars stopped, exchanged glances with each other, and bowed one by one: "Wang Changqing has met Mrs. Song at Xiaqingyun Academy."

"Dong Ming met Mrs. Song at Xiaqingyun Academy."

"Lin Chu met Mrs. Song at Xiaqingyun Academy."

Chen Wan was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Uh... Hello."

The three scholars suddenly walked to Chen Wan's table, which naturally attracted the attention of the guests in the restaurant.

Seeing the three scholars calling Chen Wan the name of Mrs. Song, they all looked at Chen Wan.

Although there are many people who have never seen Mrs. Song in this imperial city, there is no one who has never heard of Mrs. Song’s amazing deeds.

Some people looked at Chen Wan and whispered: "Ah! That's Mrs. Song Shen?"

"Finally, I saw the real person, it was really not as ugly as the rumored one."

"Are still a beautiful woman!"

"General Song is so blessed."

The scholar named Lin Chu looked at his companion and looked at Chen Wan awkwardly, saying, "I have been peeking at you, Mrs. Song just now. I am really rude. Please don't blame Mrs. Song."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Ju immediately looked at Chen Wan and showed a look of "Look! I'm right! They are just looking at you, Madam."

"Oh..." Chen Wan dragged her long voice.

Then? Are they here to accompany them for their misconduct and politeness? I have to say that these ancient scholars were really very polite!

Seeing that Chen Wan didn't speak, Lin Chu looked at her companion again, and continued with her companion's eyes: "The day before yesterday, I gave a first-team exam and asked me to wait for the second couplet within four days. But I was just a little confused and thought about it for two days but couldn't come up with the second couplet. Today, I saw you, Mrs. Song, and I wanted to ask for advice."

Chen Wan couldn't help but twitch the corners of her eyes. She didn't know much about the right couplet. That day, it was just a blind cat who met a dead mouse, so she came up with the absolute second couplet that everlasting, which made others mistakenly think that she was a talented person. Now, these three scholars actually want to ask her for advice. It seems that she is afraid that she will be in trouble today.

Although she was not a talented woman, she was a little embarrassed to be exposed and looked at by so many people.

Chen Wan still values ​​face very much, so she doesn't want to be embarrassed in front of so many people. She thought for a while and said, "Since it's the gentleman who wants to take the exam, you should naturally think about it yourself, and you really shouldn't ask me."

Another scholar named Dong Ming said: "We also know we should think about it ourselves, but we really can't think of it and have given up. Now, we just want to know what this couplet is? Otherwise, I will be unable to sleep again tonight."

Wang Changqing also said: "Don't worry, Mrs. Song, we will never use the second couplet you matched to hand in the messenger."

Didn’t you ask for advice? Why did she become the right one again!

Young people nowadays! It's really...

"You guys asked the wrong person." A beautiful female voice started.

Everyone in the hall became quiet and looked in the sound.

I saw a elegant woman wearing a snow-white skirt and flying fairy hair sitting at a position on the left corner of the hall. Opposite her, a elegant man wearing a blue shirt and a square hat, about twenty-five or six years old.

"Kong Ruyan?" Chen Wan frowned. This woman was not someone else, but the female gentleman Kong Ruyan who was driven out of the Song family.
