A talented woman married a couplet, which stumped hundreds of talented women and was finally met by a 9-year-old beggar.

It is easier to fall in love than to get married, which is the aspiration of many modern boys. If you want to marry your beloved girlfriend home, you must go through the mother-in-law's pass, not to mention how much savings you have, at least you must have a house and a car, otherwise your mother-in-law will definitely disagree. Most ancient marriages paid attention to the right match, but there were also many things that competed to recruit relatives and choose talents and husbands.

Everyone must be familiar with the matchmaking contest. Such stories are often seen in film and television dramas. No matter what the family conditions are, they are not required to be outstanding. As long as you can become the king in the ring according to the rules set by your master, you can win a beauty. The process of the game is very simple, and it is clear at a glance whether you win or lose.

The consideration of talent and emotion is relatively complicated, which can be roughly divided into poetry, prose and couplets. What kind of literary talent to focus on is decided by the subject. There was a talented woman in Qing Dynasty who planned to write couplets to marry her. Perhaps it was her antithetical couplets that were difficult, which stumped hundreds of great talents, but finally met a 9-year-old beggar.

The talented woman surnamed Xu, known as Miss Xu, has a rich family. She is a well-known rich woman with a beautiful face and a high rate of returning wherever she goes. At the age of eighteen, her parents began to think about marriage for her, and people came to propose marriage in an endless stream, which almost broke the Xu family's threshold.

Miss Xu has been familiar with poetry books since she was a child and is regarded as the apple of her parents' eye. When she grew up, she was very headstrong and independent. She hates arranged marriage, yearns for free love, rejects all those who come to propose, and tells her parents directly that she will find a suitable husband, so they don't have to worry too much.

Fortunately, her father was very open-minded and supported his daughter's practice. He spent a lot of money to build an inn and put her in charge of management. Not long after the inn opened, Miss Xu posted a notice on the door about recruiting relatives. Anyone who thinks he is talented can come and try. As long as she can recognize the couplets written by her own hand, she will commit herself to the inn as a dowry.

The news of her marriage soon spread all over the city, and people came from hundreds of miles away, including young and handsome scholars, juren over 30, and even Jinshi over 150, all wanting to marry Miss Xu home. It's a pity that there are hundreds of people who challenge her couplet back and forth, but none of them can pass, arrive with confidence and leave with frustration.

Chen Wenjie, a nine-year-old beggar, was a child prodigy. He has never lost in this respect. Hearing about Miss Xu, he felt very interesting and decided to challenge him. Miss Xu first made an online couplet: When the sky is a chessboard, who dares to play? Chen Wenjie made the next couplet without hesitation: There is a pipa road on the ground, which one can play?

I thought that Chen Wenjie's level would not be too high, but after listening to his second part, I was surprised and decided to use the killer. So, she thought for a long time, saying that she found it difficult to correct it from the first couplet: dry gossip, Kun gossip, 8864 hexagrams, hexagrams dry Kun has been decided! Chen Wenjie opened his mouth and read the next couplet: nine sounds of love, nine sounds of phoenix, nine sounds of 998 1, and the couple sang! His two bottom lines were absolute, and Miss Xu didn't break her word. From then on, she followed Chen Wenjie and took care of his daily life.
