Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses-Chapter 624 - 243 Competing in Poetry with Bu Huoran! Naming Ning Su as a Painter of the Generation! (Request Subscription)_2

"Hey, alright!!!"

Yuchi followed Wei Sanhai, and along the way, he encountered many younger members of the Wei Family. It's not that Yuchi was trying to show off, but mainly because of Wei Xubing; the issue lay with Old Man Wei.

Why was it Old Man Wei's problem? Because Old Man Wei belonged to that rare group of people who had children very late in life. In this era, girls typically got married at around fourteen, and by seventeen or eighteen, they usually had children. Men were supposed to marry by eighteen, and anything over twenty was considered too old.

So, within the Wei Family, Old Man Wei's age should have made him Yuchi's grandfather, not his father. There was a gap of a generation. So, within the Wei Family, Yuchi's standing was indeed higher than usual. When he ran into members of the Wei Family, even one of the older men called him uncle.

It was quite something.

This immediately improved his mood significantly. The Wei Family really liked his down-to-earth nature. Gathered together, they chatted and laughed about many humorous things involving the Wei Family, making the surrounding old and young burst into laughter. It was truly endless fun.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Yuchi left them and returned to his courtyard.

He needed to dine at the Lamp Flower Tower with Bu Huoran later, and the afternoon's experience reminded him of some things from his previous life.

"In the past, the older generation did emphasize family hierarchy, but it gradually faded away. In the end, it was because families broke apart from large clans into smaller ones."

"Ranks appeared in huge families to help clarify who was whose uncle and who was whose brother. Understanding one's peers required hiring knowledgeable teachers to bestow 'generation names.' However, once those names were used up, the dwindling number of family members caused the tradition to decline."

"This might just be how society evolves."

Yuchi Jin'er realized his generation name, which was "Qing," making him Wei Qingchi, while his older brother Wei Zhe should be Wei Qingzhe.

"If people from the past had the choice, many might still prefer living together as a large family, offering mutual support. A clan of several hundred people... However, such gatherings often led to major incidents. A family holding together was sometimes seen by outsiders as defiance."

Casually considering this, Yuchi changed into a new outfit.

In his black brocade clothes, Yuchi now clean and tidy, even surprisingly tucked some rosy fragrance into his clothes, mainly to leave a good impression on Bu Huoran.

"Tsk."

"According to my calculations, Xufu Town is bound to grow into a major city, maybe in ten years, or in fifty? But in any case, Xufu Town will eventually connect the Jiangnan to the Central Plains. At that time, the Celestial Craft Workshop will surely come by, and if I have a good relationship with them, I might just get my hands on that lucrative business."

"Isn't this like getting something for nothing?"

Thinking about this, Yuchi felt he still needed to maintain a good relationship with Bu Huoran. Although she's already married, if handled properly, it shouldn't lead to any unseemly situations like those with infamous individuals of the past.

"Bu Luohua is my apprentice, Bu Huoran is my wife, so should I call Bu Luohua my daughter or my disciple? If Bu Luohua and I get along well, will the trio soar together?"

Oh my, doesn't this resemble the relationship between Chen Weiran and Yuan Tiangang? Chen Weiran's sister and wife being Yuan Tiangang's wife, so how should Chen Weiran address Yuan Tiangang?

Not acceptable!

We must promote truth, kindness, and beauty. What kind of rhythm is this?

Not acceptable!

"From today on, I'll call you brother, and you'll call me father?" Yuchi laughed at the thought.

...

"There are lamp flowers in the Lamp Flower Tower, seek a matching line."

Yuchi: "..."

Yuchi wasn't good at composing couplets, but he could play with some old jokes.

But upon seeing Bu Huoran's seriously teasing expression, he thought for a moment and said, "There's a tortoise inside the shell."

Bu Huoran: "..."

She chuckled: "Young master, your humor truly resonates!"

"Haha."

Yuchi's face turned red. He really wasn't good at composing couplets. But while dining with Bu Huoran at the Lamp Flower Tower, they chatted about everything under the sun, eventually landing on the topic of couplets, right as Lamp Flower Tower was particularly beautiful.

The inn was filled with various lanterns, so Bu Huoran suddenly asked him such a question and he managed to squeeze out this response.

"Then it's my turn."

"Please go ahead."

Yuchi looked at the teacup in front of him and said, "The countless aromas of tea overflow the cup."

Bu Huoran nodded slightly: "Unclear of the warmth of the couch yet treble hearts abound."

Yuchi: "..."

Bu Huoran, holding her forehead, giggled. While Yuchi admired this, she said, "Long night stretches with three to four cups of wine or tea."

Yuchi called out his inability to cope: "The small tower rings with eight or nine bouts of laughter and tears."

Yuchi felt socially overwhelmed. Thankfully, there were no familiar faces around. Otherwise, if a familiar person overheard, he might have just died on the spot. It was simply incoherent, but this level of embarrassment was still quite exhilarating.
