Fantasy: Starting out as a gigolo, born a Confucian sage

The autumn examination was over, and Shen Wuming returned to his previous peaceful life. Apart from attending banquets, he fished and read books every day.

Of course, it’s not about reading books at home.

Instead, he came to the bookstore in Yuzhou Xiaomian. The old man with the scabrous head had already cleared out the inventory here.

But he still likes the atmosphere here.

Although it was a bookstore, there was no one there, except for an old man with a malignant head who was dying to die.

Chu Youyi still brought supper every night and came over to discuss poetry with Shen Wuming.

Under Shen Wuming's intentional or unintentional suggestions, Chu Youyi's own poetry writing skills also skyrocketed.

Looking at the entire Zhongshan County, not to mention there is no one who can compete with her, even if there is no one left behind who is eating dust.

"My wife is not the most talented woman in Zhongshan County!"

"Even if all those talented people put together, they can't compare to your little finger."

Shen Wuming was not bragging, but was stating a fact.

"uh-huh?"

Chu Youyi raised her chin slightly, "If you were not from Zhongshan County, I could accept this honor!"

"It's a pity that with the domination of the gold list, I am haggard. How can my level be enough?"

Nowadays, there are rumors in Zhongshan County that Shen Wuming is the most talented person in Zhongshan and Chu Youyi is the most talented woman in Zhongshan.

Talented man and beautiful woman, a match made in heaven!

Even Cui Zu'e once said publicly that she is ten times as talented as me.

However, Shen Wuming was indifferent to this kind of praise.

He couldn't help but think of the legends in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Cheng Yu said that Xu Shu was ten times as talented as him. Xu Shu also said that Zhuge Liang was ten times as talented as him.

In the end, Zhuge Liang said that Pang Tong was ten times more talented than him.

So after conversion, Pang Tong is equal to a thousand Cheng Yu!

Then, Liu Bei's Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chu are equal to 1,100 Cheng Yu!

But just because Shen Wuming didn't take it seriously doesn't mean that others didn't take it seriously.

Even those giants have been hearing about Shen Wuming's reputation recently.

Especially with the announcement of the results of the autumn examination, the three words Shen Wuming have even become synonymous with Zhongshan County.

After all, Jieyuan is not only top in Zhongshan County, but top in the entire Dingzhou!

When people from Dingzhou mention Zhongshan County, they won't talk about anything else, they will only talk about being haggard and dominating the gold list!

Even the merchant leader Cao Zijing was still complaining, and Cao Zhuyu turned his elbows outward.

After learning about Shen Wuming's results in the autumn exam, Cao Zijing said nothing.

He just asked Cao Zhuyu to make an appointment for him to have an interview with Shen Wuming.

"He must have been very busy these two days!" Cao Zhuyu shook his head.

"Didn't you see that when he came out of Gongyuan that day, he couldn't hold the invitation he received in his arms?"

"Don't you have a close relationship with him?" Cao Zijing glanced sideways at his daughter.

"You can't even make an appointment with your father, so you have the nerve to bend your elbow to him?"

"Who said that? Just make an appointment." Cao Zhuyu cocked her neck unconvinced, "Just wait for me."

After saying the next word, Cao Juyu ran outside, leaving Cao Zijing stunned.

"No, it's already dark today. You can go there tomorrow..."

"No, I want to go now."

Cao Juyu didn't care so much, she got on the machine carriage and drove away.

At this moment, Shen Wuming was still discussing poetry with his wife, and heard hurried footsteps outside.

When I opened the door, I saw that it was Cao Juyu.

"Master Cao, what's wrong at this late hour?" Chu Youyi's beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation as she stepped forward and asked softly.

"Not my father yet!"

Cao Juyu was a little unhappy and sat down next to Shen Wuming. She picked up the teacup on the table and took two sips.

Shen Wuming swallowed the words he was about to blurt out. This is his cup...

"What's wrong with your father?"

Chu Youyi glanced at the cup and seemed to have noticed this, but she didn't say it out loud.

Instead, he continued to ask.

Cao Juyu was someone who couldn't hold back her words and quickly poured out the contents of her stomach.

"It's not about the matter of disabling the carriage last time. Didn't Mr. Shen say..."

Finally, he looked at Shen Wuming, "So Mr. Shen, when do you have time? Let's have a meal with my father."

"This..." Cao Zhuyu opened her mouth in person, and Shen Wuming couldn't refuse, "But tomorrow is the hairpin banquet..."

The hairpin banquet is an old tradition in the imperial examination.

After the autumn examination, all successful candidates, local officials, squires and daughters of aristocratic families will be invited to a banquet.

In name, it was to congratulate these successful candidates, but in fact... it was just to build relationships.

In the future, these candidates may become officials in various places or return to their hometowns.

Let's establish a relationship first, and then we can help each other.

In addition, there is also a matchmaking intention. After all, many of the candidates are young and not yet married.

Especially Juren who come from a poor family will be favored by many women from aristocratic families.

One invests and the other pulls investments. It’s easy for a fly to catch sight of a mung bean.

Although Shen Wuming does not need to attract investment, as Jieyuan, he is the representative of all Juren.

It's never good to be absent.

"Husband, it's hard to refuse the Hairpin Banquet, but I think it's still quite early."

Chu Youyi didn't know what to think. She chuckled and said, "It just so happens that my husband is fine. Now go tell Uncle Cao. It shouldn't be a waste."

After that, she looked at Cao Juyu again, "I just wonder if Uncle Cao is free?"

"I'm free. He's been free these days." Cao Zhuyu nodded immediately. "Shall we go now?"

The old man was just saying that he was too stubborn and couldn't even make an appointment.

Now she took Shen Wuming over and gave the old man a good slap in the face.

The two women discussed it and didn't give Shen Wuming a chance to express his opinion. Cao Zhuyu dragged him into the carriage.

"Wait, wait, wait, it's my first time to meet Uncle Cao. I'd better bring a gift."

Shen Wuming climbed onto the carriage, then jumped off, went back to his room and took out a box.

Then, the carriage started.

"No... It's so late, I won't disturb Uncle Cao, right?" Shen Wuming leaned against the window, still feeling something was wrong.

"It's best to disturb him. Who told him not to give me face?" Cao Zhuyu snorted and raised her breasts like a milk ball.

The plump and plump body was only half an inch away from Shen Wuming, and he could still smell the fragrance coming from her body.

A pair of plump but not bloated beautiful legs were crossed, and the shiny little leather boots were shaking gently.

Shen Wuming was thirsty and quickly looked away, but the space in the carriage was not large.

He could only lift the curtain.

The breeze blew by, which slightly calmed the throbbing in Shen Wuming's heart. He took a deep breath and calmed down.

Zhongshan County City is still prosperous, and there is no curfew. Even after nightfall, there are still many people.

The fireworks of the world, how can you linger?

However, some passers-by began to whisper after seeing Shen Wuming and Cao Zhuyu.

"It has been said that the two of them have an affair. Look, they are still running out at such a late hour."

"A single man and a single woman, without even a beast, are using a mechanical carriage. You can imagine what they are doing?"

"I heard that inside the car..."

Most people were discussing the affair between the two.

"Didn't they open the curtain? What are you talking about?" Some people were not convinced.

"Just because you saw it was open doesn't mean it was always open. What about when you didn't see it?"

"Everyone has already got on the highway, but you are still there..."
