Chapter 408 The big campaign is not over ([-])
Time flies, and half a month has passed quietly. Today is Sun Yan's ninth birthday. Not a lot.
But since everyone in the village knows that Sun Sheng is strict with Sun Yan, they are not so much celebrating Zheng Xie as they are here to watch the play. After all, they have watched the play twice. It's pretty clear what the quality of the scene really is.
"I wonder if Young Master Sun will easily pass his father's test this time like the previous two times?" A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman at a wine table speculated with great interest.
"Sure! You must know that Sun Yan is a child prodigy! No child of his age in the village is smarter than him." On the other side of the wine table, a farmer said.
In this village, whether it is a farmer, a businessman, or a village official, everyone gets along very harmoniously. It is also common for merchants and farmers to sit together at the wine table, so it is not surprising.
"No, no, no!" At this moment, an old woman suddenly said, "I heard that Sun Sheng spent a lot of money to test his own children this time, and invited many children from outside the village to come here. It seems that one of them is from the city. The child prodigy inside is very famous."
"Grandma Guan is right, and these children are almost three years older than Zheng Xie. I think the situation of Young Master Sun this time is not optimistic!" A young man dressed as a scholar said with a frown.
"You can't say that. Age is not particularly important. Even if both of them are child prodigies, it depends on who is smarter. So I think Young Master Sun may still beat them." Another middle-aged man said.
"Okay, okay, everyone, don't talk about it. Anyway, we are just spectators. The ones who decide the final result are Sun Sheng and Sun Yan, us! Just eat and join in the fun." The person who said this was An old gentleman in the village.
When he was young, he taught many children in the village. He is considered to be a great first teacher in the village today. It is exactly like this. Even the village head will respect him when he sees him. So when he said, There was silence among the people present.
But what he said is not wrong, a spectator is always a spectator, and a spectator only needs to do his duty as a spectator. As for the final result, let's wait until that moment comes, and then discuss it!
Today is a sunny day. Thanks to this, Sun Sheng placed all the banquets outside the compound of the Sun family. There were about fifty tables in total. Most of the villagers were invited, and he was also in the middle of the compound. An open space of about [-] square meters was left, but everyone knew that it was for Zheng Xiebi to try out.
It's just that in this open space, there are still seven tables of different colors arranged in a circle, and upon closer inspection, the Four Treasures of the Study are neatly placed on the table, as if waiting for someone to pick them up.
After a while, Sun Sheng walked slowly from his seat to the open space, then lightly raised a wine glass, and signaled to the crowd. Everyone understood what he meant when they saw this, and they all fell silent. down.
"First of all, as in previous years, I would like to thank all my relatives and friends for coming, and I will have a drink instead of Gouzi!" After finishing speaking, Sun Sheng generously drank the wine in his hand.
"Then it will be the same as in previous years. I will come up with a test to test the dog, so please be a witness." At this moment, Sun Sheng filled his glass again, and then finished the wine, which is considered to be a landlord's etiquette.
"Hahaha! Brother Sun, you are welcome. We are also very honored to be able to bear witness to this supernatural power of Young Master Sun!" The speaker was a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi who was about forty years old. Ordinary, but in this village, no one dares to disrespect him, because he is the village head of this village - Lu Qing.
Also because of his status, he sat at the main table like Sun Sheng, and his daughter Lu Mengyao sat with him.
But when it comes to this little girl, it's a little strange. Although the three of them were born on the same day, she didn't act as smart and mature as Sun Yan, nor as eccentric as Yu Qian. She was always quiet, Usually, he doesn't say a word at all, he just secretly looks at Zheng Xie, completely unaware of the meaning?
In addition, Zheng Xie, who is a birthday star, and his nominal younger sister Yu Qian are also sitting here. Although they have been eating vegetables, they are actually paying attention to the surrounding situation, and even paying attention to Lu Mengyao who is sitting opposite. .
It's just that Lu Mengyao kept hiding herself, especially when Zheng Xie looked at her, she lowered her head inexplicably, so they also felt a little helpless, after all, they suspected Lu Mengyao and wanted to know her real identity.
In short, after Sun Sheng casually chatted with those people, the main show officially opened without the slightest suspense. Zheng Xie, who is the absolute protagonist tonight, is naturally doomed to be unable to escape from the situation before him, so after he sighed, Still went to the open space.
But there were six other children, four men and two women, who appeared with him. They walked out of the living room slowly, all of them were rebellious, all of them were dressed in red, and all of them were taller than Zheng Xie , like a small folk champion, exuding a temperament that is different from other children.
"So that's the case. From the perspective of ordinary people, these people are indeed not bad." Zheng Xie looked flat, and when he turned his eyes, he understood their aptitude: "But unfortunately, compared with me, you are not as good as you are." A lot!"
Others naturally don't know what Zheng Xie is thinking, and no one cares what Zheng Xie is thinking, but soon, under Sun Sheng's instructions, the seven children, including Zheng Xie, started talking one after another. Walk to the open space, choose the seat you like, and stand next to the selected table.
Zheng Xie prefers gray, so he chose a gray table, and after choosing the table, he also looked at the six children present again, but what was different from him was that these six children looked at each other. He didn't look at him, as if he didn't take him seriously at all, but that's right, after all, he is a little brother, and they are big brother and big sister.
"Oh! I'm still a cultivator at the early stages of the Life Determination Realm, and now I'm being looked down upon by a few brats. It's really sad!" Zheng Xie smiled helplessly in his heart, and seemed to be more touched.
At this time, Sun Sheng said again: "The rules of the competition are very simple. I will ask seven questions next. Whoever can answer correctly will get one point, and the person with the highest score is today's No.1." , the second highest score is No.2, and then push No.3 and No.4..."
"Listen clearly, No.1 I will reward 1000 taels of silver, No.2 will get 500 taels of silver, No.3 will get 300 taels of silver, but No.4 will no longer be rewarded, so you can How much money you take depends on your strength..."
"Also, you don't need to say the answer immediately, I will give you a cup of tea to think about the answer, and then you just need to write it on the paper in front of you! Do you understand?" Sun Sheng said seriously .
"Understood!" The group of children responded.
"Okay! Then the competition will officially begin."
As soon as the words fell, except for Zheng Xie, all the children's hearts were raised, and almost all of them quickly picked up the brushes. They were indeed elite children. You can see their extraordinaryness by looking at the correct posture of their brushes. Not only them, even those who were watching the show became quiet again.
After all, this is a major matter related to money, and they can't disturb these children.
But only Zheng Xie calmly held the brush in front of him, but his posture was not as correct as the other children, and even a little ugly, which made those who supported Sun Yan feel a little bit in their hearts. worry.
"It seems that facing so many big sisters and big brothers this time, this child prodigy is also a little flustered! Oh, now..." a businessman whispered.
But before he finished speaking, Sun Sheng, who had relatively good hearing, interrupted directly: "Please be completely quiet and keep quiet, thank you for your cooperation!"
For a moment, the businessman covered his mouth.
And Sun Sheng then said: "Then...start the first question!"
