Chapter 62: Ancient Poems

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The production team’s camera officially began recording. Everyone had a private camera following them, and the content this time was a live-stream.

“Welcome to the beautiful Moxin Town. This is the first stop of our trip. We will spend two days and one night here. The first thing we have to do now is to choose a house to live in at night.” The director began to explain the rules of the production.

“Now, there are five cards in front of you. Each card has a poem on it. As long as everyone can fill in the next sentence, you will obtain the right to live in the corresponding house.”

At this moment, the production team released five poems for everyone to see.

Best Actor Xiao hesitated for a moment. “There are a total of six of us, but we only have five cards. In other words, one person won’t have a house to live in?”

“Yes, the rule this time is that the person who can’t answer can only sleep on the streets or think of a solution themself.”

The camera was also aimed at the five ancient poems.

The first poem is:”…,… The drunken beauty leans against the bal.u.s.trade, graceful and charming, leaving behind the lingering essence of spring.”

The second poem is: “The beauty of April has faded away in the world of Man,… ,… Not knowing that it has come to reside within me.”

The third poem is: “The peonies in the courtyard are unruly, the lotuses in the pond lack any feeling…,…”

The fourth poem is: “Pear blossoms faintly white, willows deeply green, when willow catkins fly, flowers will fill the city scene…,…”

The last poem is: “Few flower buds now hold snow, lone flags and paintings tell tales we can hardly know…,…”

Faced with these ancient poems, the people who had been in the entertainment industry all year round were a little powerless. This was because it was obvious that the ancient poems found by the production team were not simple.

They were all poems that they had never heard of before. It was really a headache.

Nan Qiao took a look at these ancient poems and understood.

However, Nan Qiao felt that the production team had not only come up with so many ancient poems to make things difficult for everyone, but they also had other intentions.

These poems were very meaningful. In short, they were all poems about flowers.

Tree peony, peach blossom, peony, pear blossom, and wintersweet.

These flowers were very likely to represent the quality of the house. Since ancient times, plum blossoms had been said to be bitter and cold. Therefore, the houses represented by plum blossoms should not be good houses, so they naturally could not be the first choice.

Nan Qiao called out to Xian Yu and raised her head to whisper to him.

After hearing his Little Sister’s words, Xian Yu agreed. These words might really be related to the quality of the house.

Hence, the two of them decided to bide their time and let others choose first.

Nan Qiao and Xian Yu’s whispers naturally fell into the camera and were captured. The people in the live-stream had already begun to complain.

“It’s only the beginning, but someone is already forming a small group. How ridiculous!”

“Isn’t there already a scandal? This adulterous couple is really shameless. They’re publicly showing off like this.”

“We’re here to watch the show, not to watch the two of them having an affair.”

“This question is so difficult. I can’t answer it anyway.”

“Isn’t this making things difficult for the production team? Our Xiao Tian graduated from the University of Science and Technology. How will he know about these ancient poems?”

“Everyone, don’t worry. Other than Best Actor Xiao, everyone else doesn’t have a high education level, I’m afraid they won’t be able to live in a good house.”

“These questions are targeted at that student, right? Otherwise, would it be so difficult?”

The director gave everyone two minutes to think before asking, “Who will answer first?”

Liao Xiaotian was the first to step forward. “Then I’ll do it. I’ll choose the second ancient poem.”

“The missing verse in the middle should be: But in the mountain temple, peach blossoms are just starting to bloom. I long lament that spring has gone and I can find no place to seek it. Thank you, everyone.”

Liao Xiaotian had already spoken to the production team in advance, so he had memorized the ancient poem in advance. Naturally, he had to be the first to answer. It would be bad if someone else answered before him.

The production team: “That’s correct. Congratulations on obtaining House Two.”

Everyone in the live-stream applauded.

“Xiao Tian is indeed powerful. Even if he’s not good at literature, he can still memorize poems.”

“Xiao Tian is a music composer. He definitely has to read a lot. These poems are nothing.”

“Xiao Tian is so awesome. 1 want to see what else Xian Yu knows other than dissing other people’s songs.”

After a moment of silence, Best Actor Xiao also stood up. “Then I’ll answer next. I’ll choose the last poem. What it’s missing should be: Amidst the fragrance there is another charm, so pure that one does not feel the cold.”

The production team: “Best Actor Xiao’s answer is correct. Congratulations on obtaining House 5.”

Liu Fang and w.a.n.g Yuyan were still deliberating and could not answer. They looked a little embarra.s.sed. Nan Qiao and Xian Yu were still waiting for someone else to answer.

The production team: “Has the rest finished considering?”

Before w.a.n.g Yuyan and Liu Fang came, they did not know about ancient poems at all, so they were in a dilemma.

Liu Fang was a senior actress. When she debuted, she was accidentally discovered by a talent scout, and her academic qualifications were stopped at the high school level. It was really uncomfortable to encounter such a question now.

She even suspected that the production team was deliberately messing with her.

It was inevitable that she felt inferior, embarra.s.sed, and uncomfortable. She even felt a little aggrieved.

“I’ll answer.” Nan Qiao stepped forward with a smile.

“I choose the third ancient poem. It should describe a peony, so the next two sentences are: Only the peony truly represents the national colors, moving the city with the blooming season.”

The production team: “Congratulations to Nan Qiao for answering correctly and obtaining House 3.”

Nan Qiao smiled, revealing her cute canine teeth. “Can 1 give the house to someone else?”

This was the first time the production team had heard such a request and it was difficult to make a decision for a moment. “This… we’ve never had such a precedent before.”

“But the questions you chose are so difficult. Big Brother Xian Yu might not be able to answer them. There are still so many people who haven’t answered. You can’t really let us all sleep on the streets, right?” Nan Qiao blinked mischievously.

Then, in a place where the camera could not capture her, she said softly, “You don’t want to see the teachers sleeping on the streets, right?”

The production team knew that the poems they had found this time were not common. If it was really difficult for the two big shots, the fans would drown them with their saliva.

Moreover, if Xian Yu really could not answer the question and slept on the streets, he would have to leave overnight to stop recording. It was better to coax this ancestor.

“Alright, but you have to think about the consequences. After you give up the house, you won’t have a place to stay. A person can only have one chance to answer.”

“Alright, 1 want to give the house to Big Sisters w.a.n.g Yuyan and Liu Fang.”

The production team was speechless. “Didn’t you want to give it to Xian Yu?”

“I didn’t say that I wanted to give it to him.” Nan Qiao widened her big innocent eyes, looking like she didn’t know anything.

The production team:”…”

“Alright, but you can only choose one person to give the house to. However,

you can only exchange it this time. You can’t do it in the future.”

Nan Qiao pouted and said, “If I’m not wrong, these poems are all about flowers, and the peony is the king of flowers. It must be the best house. It definitely won’t be a problem for two people to live in.”

Best Actor Xiao looked at the number five sign in his hand and smiled bitterly. “Looks like my house is the worst.”

The production team clicked their tongues. Although the person they invited from the school back then was a top student, they didn’t invite her to cause trouble. If she had already guessed this, how were they going to record the next scene?

The production team: “There’s only one last chance left. If Xian Yu can’t answer, he can only sleep on the streets with Nan Qiao..”
