   "Mother, wait a moment, I'll go and find out." Wei Yichen replied, and then got off his horse and walked into the crowd.

  After waiting for a while, Wei Yichen came back, his expression was much more excited than when he went.

   "Mom, it's a newly opened store that is holding a competition."

   "What shop, what competition?" Seeing his son's excited appearance, Yun became more curious.

   It is rare to see my son so excited about one thing.

   "It's Sibao Zhai. It opened a branch in Xingshan County, and competed in calligraphy and writing. The winner will get the calligraphy of Tibetan forest dwellers."

   "Sibaozhai? The paper your father brought back last time seems to be from Sibaozhai."

   "It's this Sibaozhai!" Wei Yichen said excitedly.

"There is also the Tibetan monk, is he a famous gentleman in Huzhou Prefecture? I heard your father mention him last time. The article is very good. He used to be an academician of the Imperial Academy. After he retired, he lived in seclusion in Huzhou Prefecture. , planted a bamboo forest in front of the house, and regarded himself as a layman in the Tibetan forest."

   "It is this person!"

  That's why Wei Yichen is so excited now.

  Whether it's the paper from Sibaozhai or the ink treasures of Tibetan Buddhists, Wei Yichen is very interested.

  Seeing his son's thoughts, Yun said, "Then why are you still standing there? In terms of calligraphy and writing, my son is one of the best in Xingshan County."

  Hearing this, Wei Yichen looked at his father at the side again.

  Wei Mingting agreed: "Go, as a father, I also want to see my son's literary talent."

   "The son has gone."

  Wei Yichen walked into the crowd excitedly.

  Wei Mingting said to several people in the carriage: "You guys also get out of the carriage and take a walk."

  After Wei Mingting had spoken, the Yun family let go of the three children, asked Wei Qingwan and Wei Ruo to put on their veiled hats, and told their maids to follow them closely.

  As for Wei Yilin, she watched in person, so that the child would not know where he went.

  After getting out of the car, Wei Ruo and Xiumei squeezed into the crowd, surrounding the audience to compete for the calligraphy of the Tibetan Layman.

   Both of them had excitement on their faces. Although they were not as good as Wei Yichen, they were obviously more concerned about other things, especially Wei Ruo.

   The content of the competition is very simple. Participants will make a short essay on the spot according to the given topic and write it on paper.

  Finally, judge the pros and cons according to the content of the article and the quality of calligraphy.

   The shopkeeper of Sibaozhai, who presided over this competition, was a middle-aged man with a beard. He was slightly fat and had a simple and honest smile.

  He warmly greeted every attracted student, explained the rules of the competition to them, and invited them to participate.

  The pens, inks, papers and inkstones used in the competition are all provided by their Sibaozhai.
