Chapter 249: Divide Cao Shefu (1)

Seeing Jia Lian finish talking about business, Baoyu hurriedly touched Jia Lian’s sleeve and urged: "Brother Lian, tell everyone quickly..."

Jia Lian shook his head and smiled, seeming to shake his head helplessly, and then said to everyone: "Everyone must know that I am a rough man, and it is enough for me to compete in martial arts. This is an elegant thing on the wine table. , I’m not very good at it..."

As soon as Jia Lian said this, he immediately laughed.

Tan Chun said: "Brother Lian loves to be humble. If you are a rough person, we are not even rough people. From now on, we will not dare to mention the word 'elegant' again. "

"That's right, my brother's poems are so good, we are still waiting for you to open our eyes again."

The Yingchun girl also came with a smile. Just for fun.

Others looked at him with half-smiling smiles, with three words in their eyes: distrust.

Jia Lian then touched his nose and said to himself that the pretense cannot be taken back.

"That's all, since you don't believe it, I can't help it.

But Baoyu, even if you don't understand me, you have to be considerate of your second sister-in-law Lian, right? She doesn’t even know the word Douda. Isn’t it embarrassing for you to call her couplets and poems?”

Hearing Jia Lian say this, although Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes at Jia Lian, she still knew. She was the least educated among the people present, and she was probably not even comparable to the eight or nine-year-old Xiao Xichun.

Then he smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about me. You can play whatever you like. No matter what, I'll pour you wine next to you. That's all."

Jia Baoyu and others smiled. This was the reason why although Wang Xifeng couldn't play with them, they didn't hate her at all. Instead, they liked her because of her high emotional intelligence.

Baochai smiled at this time and said: "Since it is a drinking ceremony, it should be appreciated by both refined and popular people. Although the couplet poem is elegant, it is not suitable for this time, so let's change it to something else."

Jia Baoyu was just trying to get started. In fact, he himself was not good at poetry. At least he thought he could not compare with Daiyu. He just wanted to give Jia Lian a try.

At this time, when he heard Baochai say this, he remembered that Aunt Xue was probably just like Wang Xifeng, not good at this, so he could only nod and agree to change the way of playing.

But then everyone talked and proposed several ways to play, but they were all rejected.

Since the people present are not in the same league and have different hobbies, the gameplay proposed is either too vulgar, too elegant or too difficult, and cannot satisfy everyone.

Daiyu then smiled and said: "PhotoIf we keep talking like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to come to a conclusion until it gets dark.

In my opinion, it would be better to take out the wine order box, send one person to draw it, and play with whatever is drawn. Wouldn’t it be simple? "

"Sister Lin said, this is good and very fair. I think everyone is speechless. "

Lin Daiyu's number one dog-licking second treasure is online.

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "I have a pair of wine boxes here, but I haven't used them much. Since you want to use it, I'll take it out for you. ”

Because Ping’er went to pick up Jia Lan, Wang Xifeng got up and went to the house in person.

At that moment, Wang Xifeng took out the wine order box, and Ping’er also took Jia Lan out. Lan brought them over.

When Jia Lan saw all the aunts and uncles, he seemed very reserved. He bowed to everyone present in a serious manner, and then he sat next to his mother Li Wan obediently. Sitting next to me.

“Which of you will draw lots? "

Wang Xifeng held up the wine box and asked everyone with a smile.

Jia Lian said with a smile: "Lan'er is the youngest here, so let him smoke." ”

So, Jia Lan, who had just sat down, had to stand up again, saluted everyone again, and then stepped forward to salute Wang Xifeng.

The etiquette was thorough. It doesn’t work.

Then he stretched out his little hand and took out a random lot from the token box. When he turned around and looked at it, a child’s voice said loudly: “Shooting? "

From the questioning voice of Xiao Jialan, it can be seen that he does not understand what shooting is.

But the uncles and aunts here are all in a rage.< br />
“What a Laner, he pulled out the most difficult order in one draw! "

"Yeah, I'm not good at this..."

Seeing that Wang Xifeng and others didn't understand much, Baochai smiled and explained: "Shefu has been around since ancient times. It does exist, but it has been lost long ago. It was made up by later generations, and it was more difficult to compile than all the orders.

I guess most of the people here are not convinced, so they should give up and choose another one. "

When Daiyu heard Baochai speak so calmly, she knew that she must know how to play. She also said that most of the people here couldn't, so she deliberately wanted to be against her.

“Now that you’ve taken it out, why give it up?

If there is another one that someone doesn’t know how to do, what will happen then? So, why draw lots in the first place?

In my opinion, this is the order. ”

When Wang Xifeng, Aunt Xue, Xichun and others saw that even Li Wan and Tanchun found it difficult, they knew that they would definitely not be able to play.Yes, they all said they would let everyone play, but they would not participate.

Unexpectedly, Daiyu had already planned. Before they finished speaking, she smiled and said: "Aunt and second sister-in-law, don't worry, I mean, there are so many of us here, there will always be someone who knows how to play. There are always some people who don’t know how to do it.

How about this, we are divided into two classes, and we don’t have to do our own thing. People in the same class can help each other, isn’t it ok? This is the so-called The idea of ​​'dividing Cao Shefu' has existed since ancient times, and Sister Bao must know it."

Baochai and Daiyu were at the second position where Jia Lian started, and they happened to be facing each other across the table. At this time, they looked at each other. Take a look.

Baochai knew that Daiyu wanted to compete with her, and Daiyu also knew that Baochai saw that she wanted to compete with her.

So they smiled at each other and said nothing more.

"Divide Cao and Shefu? This is a good name, but there are eleven of us, how should we divide them?"

Tan Chun was moved by Daiyu's statement. , asked with a smile.

Seeing that Daiyu also frowned, Jia Lian smiled and waved to Xiangling beside him: "Come here."

Xiangling's eyes suddenly opened wide. , pointed at himself, and then hurriedly waved his hands to express that he could not come...

"Come here quickly! You have studied with your master for two years, and today is the time to test your achievements. , see if you have embarrassed your master."

Everyone laughed when they heard Jia Lian say this, and most of them knew that the teacher Jia Lian was referring to was Lin Daiyu.

Yu's face turned slightly red when she was told that, and she glanced at Jia Lian angrily. However, seeing that although everyone was laughing, they didn't mean to laugh at them, she also smiled.

When Xiangling saw that her masters were calling her, she did not dare to insist. She could only walk over slowly under the envious eyes of Qingwen and others.

A smart little girl immediately brought a chair over and placed it under Xichun's head.

After Xiangling apologized, she was about to sit down when she saw Sister Feng, who was at the end of the seat next to her, looking at her with a smile. She quickly stood up and said, "Grandma, please sit here. I'll switch with you..."< br />
"Go, go, go, sit wherever I tell you."

Wang Xifeng cursed in her heart, "You want to change my position with your little hooves and even before your hair has grown?"

Although the last seat seems to be the one with the lowest status, in fact, it is sitting alone, and you can look across the air from the chief Jia Lian. She is sitting well, how can she give it to Xiang Ling.

I also know that Xiang Ling just doesn’t understand the rules and is not too harsh.

When Xiangling sat down, Jia Baoyu couldn’t wait to smile and said: “That’s great.No need to bother, just divide it according to the seats. There are exactly five people on each side of us.

On our side, I, sister Lin, third sister, eldest sister-in-law and Lan'er, and on my aunt's side, aunt, sister Bao, second sister, fourth sister and Xiangling.

As for the second brother Lian and the second sister-in-law Lian, you can just choose one to join. ”

Jia Baoyu gave such a plan.

It seems reasonable, but in fact, the calculation is flying.

He knows that Baochai is knowledgeable Guangji thought that only if he and Daiyu join forces can they fight Baochai.

Moreover, with him and Daiyu on their side, plus Tanchun and Li Wan, their fighting strength Not bad at all, but on the opposite side, it seems that there is only one Baochai family. Just for balance, Jia Lian will also choose to join the opposite camp.

In this way, Jia Lian cannot be paired with Sister Lin. .

Daiyu doesn’t know Jia Baoyu’s little thoughts, and she doesn’t care. As long as she can compete with Baochai, it is a satisfactory grouping method for her.

However, when she heard that Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng could choose at will, she immediately looked at Jia Lian.

Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng knew who to choose even with their eyes closed!

Besides, she didn’t want Jia Lian to help Baochai.

Jia Lian really wanted to go to Baochai, because he thought that there was only one Baochai who looked powerful, and others such as Aunt Xue , Yingchun, Xichun, Xiangling, etc., are all relatively ordinary.

When playing there, with his own level that he considers not too high, it is easy for him to stand out.

But when he saw The look in Daiyu's eyes made him hesitate.

"Haha, in that case, I will join the camp of my aunt and sister Baochai.

I promised you that I am incompetent. If they make things difficult for you, Baochai, please help me more. "

Wang Xifeng is so smart. Although Jia Baoyu and Daiyu had a fierce quarrel, she could tell at a glance that Baochai should be the best at playing games.

And She and Jia Lian have the opposite plan. Even if they are not outstanding, they are not eye-catching.
However, that would be too embarrassing.

“It seems that I can only join Sister Lin’s side. ”

Wang Xifeng chose one side, and Jia Lian had no choice but to join the other side.

In this way, Lin Daiyu’s side can be said to be as strong as a cloud, even The only little Jialan, look at that kidHe doesn't look frightened at all, so he might be a tough guy.

On the opposite side, Xue Baochai’s side seemed to have no one powerful except herself.

Perhaps this is the reason why they can be at ease. Anyway, they are not the only ones who cannot do it. When the time comes, they will look at Baochai (Sister Bao).

Baochai didn’t care at all about this situation.

It is a small game after all, winning or losing is not important, let alone who you are paired with.

Yingchun said at this time: "Since we have divided Cao and Shefu, now everyone has been divided. I don't even know the rules clearly. Who can tell us in detail?"

Daiyu immediately smiled and said: "Sister Bao is the most knowledgeable, let her speak."

Baochai did not refuse and said bluntly: "The so-called shooting has been around since ancient times. , at first it was nothing more than randomly picking an object, covering it under a basin or bowl, and letting others guess it, and the one who guessed it correctly won.

Later generations deduced different ways of playing based on this, making Shefu famous. Big noise.

But today, the ancient gameplay has long been impossible to test. What I know is just what I heard from people in the past.

The orderer arbitrarily designates an object during the banquet, which is the base of the order. The base of the order cannot be spoken. Only a word or word related to it is said, which is called a cover.

Guess The orderer guesses the order based on the face of the person who gave the order. If he guesses, he is not allowed to say it. Instead, he says a word or phrase that is also related to the order, which is called shooting.

Giving the order The player will judge whether the shot of the person who guessed the order hits the base of the order. If he shoots, the two of them will drink a cup together.

In addition, the person who misses the shot will be punished with a drink. If he shoots successfully, If you make a mistake, you will also be punished with a drink."

Baochai had deliberately made the rules simple, but after hearing this, most of the people present still felt a little headache.

This is too difficult. There are many detours. How can we play this?

Tan Chun also asked: "How do you calculate the so-called words or words associated with them?"

"No matter poems, allusions, idioms, or sayings, they are Yes."

Baochai said it, and seemed to think that this gameplay was too difficult, so he took the initiative and said: "Shooting is an extremely difficult game. If it is too broad, it will be extremely difficult to guess.

Well, let’s delete the idioms and sayings and only allow poetry and allusions. This way the scope will be much smaller and it will be much easier to hit.”

“ Well, what Sister Bao said is true, just follow what Sister Bao said."

Jia Baoyu quietly wiped itThe fine sweat on his forehead, what Baochai said was a little different from what he thought it would be, and even harder!

So much so that he was no longer sure, and he was relieved when he saw Baochai taking the initiative to reduce the difficulty.

Since it is something that is available at the table and is limited to limited poems and allusions, it should not be difficult to guess it as long as you are knowledgeable enough and have a sharp mind.

Daiyu had played this game with her mother in her early years, and was familiar with it. She was afraid that everyone would be intimidated, so she hurriedly said: "The rules sound difficult, but in fact they are quite simple to do.

The difficulty of shooting actually depends on whether the order is biased or not.

Let’s play it first and everyone will understand.”

With that said, Daiyu asked Jia Lian to host the game and explain the specific gameplay and punishment system.

Jia Lian smiled and said: "There are six of us on one side, so why not roll the dice, it just fits.

My aunt is an elder, so she will throw the first dice. Well, whoever throws the number will be the one who gives the order in the first game.

Then we throw in order starting from me. Whoever throws the same point as the commander will be the one who throws the order. Who can guess?

For the sake of fairness, just as Sister Lin said before, you can ask people who are "Tongcao" for advice. If you fail three times, you will be fined one drink.

I also want to tell a joke, or tell a story, no matter what."

"Okay, second brother Lian’s idea is good, it’s even more interesting when I think about it."

So he asked the maids to get dice, paper and pen.

Jia Lian saw that all the maids were standing beside him eagerly, so he called Ping'er and said: "You make the arrangements. Those who should sit next to the table should be seated, and those who should go down to eat should go down to eat first. , you don’t have to wait here all the time.”

It was the old practice of the Jia Mansion that when the masters had a happy gathering, they would sometimes set up a “lower table” on the side for maids or respectable servants to sit.

This is not only a favor, but also to enhance the atmosphere.

Today is no exception. Small tables and low benches have long been set up on the corridors on both sides, as well as relatively simple dishes.

Those who can take a seat at this time and accompany the masters to eat are symbols of identity and status.
