After confirming that Qin Ye was really fine, Jia Jun left him a sum of money. Then, under Yongning's lead, they went to the venue of the Mid-Autumn Festival cultural gathering.
However, just as they arrived, Yongning found an excuse and left first.
Jia Jun looked at the crowded lakeside and felt a little troubled. How was he going to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Literature Meet?
Just as he was puzzled, a voice came from behind him."Third Uncle Jun?"
Jia Jun turned around and saw the delicate Jia Rong and Jia Lian standing behind him.
"Second Brother Lian, Nephew Rong." Jia Jun greeted the two of them.
Jia Lian smiled at Jia Rong." Haha, I thought we could only watch from the sidelines. I didn't expect to meet Third Brother Jun. This time, we have a chance."”
Jia Rong nodded excitedly.
Seeing that Jia Jun was puzzled, Jia Lian hurriedly explained the matter of the literary club to him.
This cultural gathering was divided into three parts. The first was a lantern festival held on the shore. Anyone could participate. As long as they answered three riddles correctly, they would get a chance to draw lots and board a pleasure boat on the lake at random.
This pleasure boat was the second part of the cultural gathering. There were a total of eight ships, each of which had a famous courtesan. If the participants could obtain a token from this famous courtesan, they could enter the core location of the cultural gathering, the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
This pavilion was the third part of the cultural gathering, and also the most important part. There are officials, celebrities, courtesans and so on. Over there, through layers of competition, the final victor of the cultural gathering would be decided.
Moreover, it was said that this year's literary conference was different from the past. There might be some special segments, but Jia Lian was not sure what they were.
"Third Brother Jun, although everyone can participate in this lantern festival, we can't even answer a single question. Now that you're here, we have hope. What I want is to go to the pleasure boat. Third Brother Jun, please grant my wish.”Jia Lian had a face full of joy as he looked at Jia Jun as if he had seen his savior.
"Second Brother Lian, aren't you afraid that Second Sister-in-law will find out about this?" Jia Jun asked, amused.”
Hearing him mention Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian's face darkened.""Don't mention her, it'll spoil the mood.”
After saying that, he went to look for the lantern riddles.
"Third Uncle Jun, don't you know?" Jia Rong whispered to Jia Jun. Second Uncle Lian had already separated from his aunt.”
Jia Jun raised his eyebrows and deliberately asked,""Why is this? They haven't been married for long."
"I'm not sure about that. According to the old maids, Second Uncle Lian wanted to settle it, but Aunt didn't allow it. The two of them started quarreling, and the result became more and more awkward. The old lady had tried to persuade them a few times, but the two of them remained the same.”Jia Rong said.
Jia Jun nodded. Was that really the case? This should be an excuse, right?
"Third Brother Jun, come and take a look. What is the solution to this lantern riddle?”Jia Lian waved at Jia Jun.
Jia Jun walked over with Jia Rong, only to see Jia Lian holding a riddle. On it was written: Alone, waiting for the sunrise.
Jia Rong scratched her head, looking confused.
"This is the word 'Dan'." Being alone was one. When there was a sunrise, it was the word 'Dan'.”
Jia Lian thought about it and understood. He said happily,"Third Brother Jun is indeed talented!”
Seeing Jia Jun solve the riddle so easily, Jia Lian and Jia Rong were greatly encouraged. They quickly found a few lantern riddles and asked Jia Jun to solve them.
Jia Jun was also happy to help them and quickly helped them untie it. He was proficient in poetry at the master level, so it was naturally easy for him to understand this kind of popular lantern riddles.
Very soon, the three of them arrived at the answering area and handed in their answers, obtaining the qualifications to draw lots to go to the pleasure boat.
Jia Rong was the first to draw lots. He drew the word " zither " and his expression immediately turned bitter. How could he know anything about zither? However, he still had to go. He might even be able to see those famous people.
And Jia Lian drew the word "song".
"Hah! On the boat with the word 'Ge' was Miss Shi Han. It was rumored that Miss Shi Han was talented and this time, he could finally see her beauty.”Jia Lian smiled. He was very satisfied with the result of his draw.
The last person to draw lots was Jia Jun. The person in charge of drawing lots was an old man. He glanced at Jia Jun and suddenly asked,"Young Master, are you the Young Master Jia Jun who 'lives as if it was the first time we met?”
Jia Jun nodded. Does Mister have any advice?"
The old man stroked his beard and smiled." I don't dare to advise you. I just thought of the rumors, so I asked."”
As he spoke, he picked up Qian Tong and shook it."Young Master Jun, please draw lots."
Jia Jun glanced at him and drew a lot.
Song.
"Third Brother Jun never thought that we would be on the same pleasure boat. This is truly a coincidence, but it's good that we're going together!”Jia Jun seemed very happy when he saw this.
Was it really a coincidence?
Jia Jun looked at the old man again and saw him smiling at him. He smiled back at him and then said goodbye to Jia Rong. He boarded the small boat with Jia Lian to the "Song" character pleasure boat.
The Mid-Autumn Festival cultural gathering had begun.
