The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 118 Selling Wine

"Then tell us! Everyone here promises not to spread the second line out!" Princess Chenxi said.

Lin Hai didn't sell things anymore.

"The smoke locks the willows in the pond, and the second line is the peach burning Jinjiang embankment!"

After listening to the second line, everyone began to appreciate it.

All eyes lit up, and they suddenly felt that this was the case.

"It's really amazing. It's still the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth! And the confrontation is also very neat. I'm afraid there is no other couplet that can be better than this one."

Princess Chenxi clapped her hands and said.

"It's embarrassing!" Lin Hai smiled slightly.

While others are talking about it.

Lin Hai started to eat the fruit without thinking about himself!

Only then did Shi Shu realize that he was no match for Lin Hai in making couplets.

He quickly changed the subject and said: "What's going on today? It's obviously a poetry meeting, why are we talking about couplets?"

Others followed suit.

"That's right. Since it's a poetry meeting, of course I have to compose poetry."

"How about the princess come up with a topic and we can compose a poem together."

"That is to say, couplets are just a trail. Only good poems can be remembered forever!"

……

Suddenly, it seems that no matter how good you are at making couplets, you are just inferior.

All people disdain the couplets.

Xiaocui was furious.

I really want to say something fair to Lin Hai.

But she is just a maid, and she is not qualified to speak on such an occasion.

If he talks nonsense, it means that Lin Ruoxue is incapable of discipline.

Will become the laughing stock of others.

Xiaocui whispered: "These people really can't afford to lose."

Lin Ruoxue was also in a very bad mood at the moment.

For the first time, I feel that although these people have some literary talents, they are too narrow-minded.

It's true that they are mortal enemies, but it's obvious that they can't even write the second line.

But he is still so belittled, which only shows that he is too petty and can't even afford to lose.

There is no literati style at all.

I used to enjoy participating in poetry gatherings. It was a great pleasure to be able to talk about knowledge with these talented people.

But suddenly Lin Ruoxue wanted to leave here as soon as possible.

It's better to find a tavern with Lin Hai, sit down, drink wine and chat slowly.

Or go to the wild, enjoy the beautiful scenery, and compose poetry at the same time.

How nice it would be to think about that scenario.

"Okay Xiaocui, don't complain. It's actually good to be able to see the true colors of these people earlier!"

Lin Ruoxue said softly.

"Well, Miss is absolutely right. Since I won't compose poems anymore, Miss, please eat more fruits!"

Xiaocui helped pick the grapes and placed them in front of Lin Ruoxue.

Lin Ruoxue was thinking about Lin Hai at the moment.

Turn to look over.

I found that my worries were unnecessary.

Lin Hai acted as if nothing had happened.

Holding fruit in one hand and snacks in the other, she ate and drank.

If you eat too much, take a sip of wine.

Leisurely and contented, not to mention how beautiful it looks.

Lin Ruoxue looked at Lin Hai's appearance and suddenly felt much better.

"Yes, there is nothing to be angry with these people. Now that I know they are villains, if I take it seriously with them, there will be no good except being angry and ruining my body."

Thinking of this, I don't care at all.He also picked up a grape and ate it.

Watching Lin Hai eating and drinking, the people around him couldn't stand it anymore.

Although there are snacks and fruits on the table, you can't eat and drink as much as if you haven't eaten.

Didn't you even eat when you came?

It was just for the purpose of making money from the beginning.

"Ahem, it's so embarrassing. It seems that these fourth-grade officers are not doing well. They seem to have never eaten fruits and snacks."

"That is to say, he has no self-cultivation at all. The poetry meeting will last for two hours. It's just to satisfy his hunger. It's better for him to just eat it!"

"That's how people come from small places. They don't even understand the most basic etiquette."

……

They deliberately let Lin Hai hear what they said, hoping to make him notice some impact.

Lin Hai sneered in his heart after hearing this.

Although I had some savings, I spent most of it on buying a house and doing business.

We also have to ensure food and drink for so many people.

It’s not okay if you don’t have money in hand.

And this kind of snack is expensive, and fruits like grapes are even more luxurious.

Only the rich can afford it.

Qiaoer is reluctant to buy such luxurious things at home.

After finally getting the opportunity to eat and drink for free, Lin Hai would not let it go.

You can eat as much as you can, it doesn’t cost any money anyway.

He even planned to take some away and let Qiaoer have a taste.

Seeing Lin Hai still eating and drinking, he didn't pay any attention to their discussion.

It made the people next to me a little confused.

He asked with a mocking look on his face: "Master Lin, you have been eating and drinking since you sat down. You have never eaten the snacks here, have you?"

When someone spoke, Lin Hai couldn't ignore it.

Swallowing the snack in his mouth, he drank another glass of wine.

"Desserts and fruits are so expensive, I really can't afford them with my salary."

"Hmph, don't tell me that these snacks and fruits are expensive, this wine is also 20 taels of silver a jar, you can't afford it normally, right?"

Lin Hai didn't care in the face of ridicule.

He said calmly: "It turns out that I thought that all the gentlemen came from famous families and were quite knowledgeable. I didn't expect that such an ordinary wine would actually taste good.

It seems like you really haven’t had a good drink! "

The person who made the taunting words was also from a wealthy family. When Lin Hai dared to say that he had never had a good drink, he became angry.

He sneered and said: "Do you dare to say that I have never drank good wine?"

"Let me tell you, I have tasted centuries-old wine worth several hundred taels of silver per jar!"

"Hehe, the century-old wine is indeed good. But it's still not as good as the good wine I've had." Lin Hai was confident.

He didn't take the other party's words seriously at all.

After hearing the quarrel between the two, others stopped talking about poetry.

They all looked over here, wondering what was going on.

"Then tell me, what kind of wine can be better than a century-old wine?" the black-faced young man said angrily.

"A Deyu Winery has just opened in the city. The best wine only sells for 30 taels of silver per jar. However, the wine has a rich aroma and is no worse than a thousand-year-old wine.

If you haven't tasted the wine there, don't say you have had good wine. "

Lin Hai drank a glass of wine leisurely.

He sighed helplessly and said: "Hey, can this be considered wine? Compared with the wine from Deyu Winery, it is just like water and has no alcohol taste!"

The black-faced young man was completely unconvinced.

"Hmph, I think you are just trying to save your face. I have never heard of Deyu Winery. If there really was such a fine wine, it would have become famous in the capital long ago!"

"That's right. I have never heard of the name of this winery. What you said is completely unbelievable!" Shi Shucai was eager to make Lin Hai look embarrassed and also helped to speak.

"Hey, it doesn't matter if you are ignorant. If you show it, you are mentally retarded."

"Didn't I just say that? A new store has just opened. If you are not convinced, you can buy a jar of wine and taste it, and then you will know whether what I said is true!"
