Chapter 134 Hairpin Banquet
Outside the mountain, the Qingshan Building is outside the building, and the West Lake singing and dancing will be closed. For thousands of years, the shores of West Lake have been a place of drunken gold.
The dark green lake water in the moonlight ripples with sparkling silver waves. The exquisite painting boats, brightly lit, slowly cruising on the lake with songs and laughter, but seeing that every cruise ship is extremely luxurious, there are charming and weak singers holding the qin, singing the beautiful and distant Kunshan dialect. There are scholars with Eguan Bo who hum softly, and they pay attention to the flatness, up, going, and entering of the singing tone one by one, and strive to achieve perfection in every detail. There are even more officials and wealthy businessmen leaning on the red and green, pushing the cup to change the lamp, and drinking happily.
What a picture of the night banquet in the lake in the prosperous era!
Sun Yan retracted his gaze indignantly, gritted his teeth and whispered: "The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the backyard flowers across the river!" Chen Shounian on the side hurriedly whispered: "Silence, Brother Wenzhong!" Tao Yuchen sighed, his face sank like water, and Sun Ling closed his eyes slightly, as if he was asleep, as if he was enjoying the tune coming from outside the ship.
The five Shaoxing Kui in this college examination are the five of them, which shows that the eight-share examination does have its objective surname...... Basically, as long as it is an examiner from Hanlin, the results of the marking are very different.
The five people were arranged at a table, and there were Ningbo Wukui at the same table, watching the people around them staggered and gossiping, but the atmosphere of this table seemed out of place...... The hometowns of several Ningbo Xiucai are still under the ravages of the Japanese Bandits, and several relatives are still dying in this scene.
Fortunately, there are no so-called celebrities at their table, so they are dull.
Tao Yuchen whispered: "Senior brother, how can you say these people can eat?" ”
Shen Mo just wanted to try a piece of West Lake vinegar fish, but when he heard this, he had to put down his chopsticks and said with a wry smile: "Don't you still want to swim in the lake in the afternoon?" ”
"I just said come and see." Tao Yuchen said embarrassedly: "It's a visit, not a play." ”
"If you come, you will be safe," Shen Mo said softly, "at least this table is very good." The five people in Shaoxing stopped talking and ate with their heads bored. Looking at the five in Ningbo, they turned their grief and anger into appetite, and they were eaten like a whirlwind and clouds.
At this time, some celebrities proposed that these old-timers should go out to the joint examination school to take a look at the candidates from each prefecture, and they would naturally be very happy when they came up, and they would be fined three glasses of wine if they didn't come up.
Mention the head of the master of the good, then began to make a pair, today is a festive child, the old celebrities will naturally not be out of the way, pick up some auspicious pairs, purely to liven up the atmosphere a little.
The rookies are all really selected, and naturally they will not be stunned, and they are all right and tight, which attracts applause.
But when it came to the silent table, the old celebrity who made the question had already looked at them unpleasantly...... The good man is crying and mourning, isn't this adding to the blockage? Then he said to Shen Mo: "I have heard for a long time that the outstanding people of Shaoxing are excellent, and I have a pair here that I want to ask for advice." ”
The four of Shaoxing looked at Shen Mo, their hearts were very complicated, they wanted him to win glory for Shaoxing, but they didn't want him to take care of these sluts.
At this time, the old celebrity had already asked: "The six towers are heavy, and they are angular on all sides. "This is the famous spot in Hangzhou, 'Liuhe Tower', which is not so easy to connect with numbers.
Shen Mo kept silent, just raised his hand and waved.
The old celebrity thought that he couldn't come up, so he couldn't help but say proudly: "I'll give you another chance, if you can't come up this time, you will be punished for drinking." Another famous tower in Hangzhou was used to make a couplet: "Uncle Bao Tower, the top of the tower, sharp as a pen, the pen writes all over the world." ”
At this time, the boat sailed to the Jindai Bridge, and Shen Mo still did not say a word, but pointed to the bridge with his finger, arched his hand to the fat old celebrity, and then spread his hands evenly and raised it upward.
The old man thought he was telling him to forgive, so he laughed and said, "It's useless to beg for mercy, drink quickly." Everyone also laughed quietly: "Sure enough, it was a mouse carrying a gun, and as soon as it came out, it revealed its original form." ”
Tao Yuchen on the side couldn't help but sneer: "My senior brother has already crossed the lower link, but you just don't understand." ”
The old man was displeased: "You dare to quibble unreasonably and fool the old man? ”
"You are the mouth, my senior brother is the right hand." Tao Yuchen sneered: "I'll explain to you, if it's really right, how about the old gentleman punish himself with three cups?" ”
"No problem." The old man smiled reservedly: "The old man's upper link is, the six towers are heavy, and the four sides are seven edges and eight corners. ”
Tao Yuchen raised his hand and said, "One palm is flat, five fingers are three long and two are short." "When he landed, he was applauded.
The old celebrity's face turned red and said: "My second couplet is: 'Uncle Bao Tower, the top of the tower, sharp as a pen, the pen writes all over the world. ’”
Tao Yuchen pointed to the Jindai Bridge, arched his hand to him, spread his hands evenly, and raised his head upwards and said: "Jindai Bridge, the bridge hole is round, round like a mirror, and the mirror shines on all countries and Kyushu." This time, the applause was louder, and the old celebrity was completely embarrassed, so he could only borrow urine and escape.
The teasing of the Shaoxing students made those old celebrities very embarrassed, but they said that one to one, and they could only take the show of Ningbo Mansion to get angry. Then he came up with a long pair, to make them deflated, an older celebrity coughed and said: "Shou than Nanshan, the mountain is not old, the old man, the life is rich, abundant food and clothing, delicious food, great dignity, great glory and wealth, the distinguished guests should have arrived early, it is natural, it is natural." ”
Ningbo Xiucai couldn't listen to these people chanting poems against them, but now seeing them so shameless boasting, he was very angry in his heart, and immediately took the case, and said to the next couplet: "Blessing is like the East China Sea, the sea is not dry, the roots of the dead trees, the roots are rotten and the skin is thick, shameless, shameful and others, misleading the country and the people, Fujian and Zhejiang are defeated, and there are countless unjust souls in the underworld, who can not hurt and stab your mother!" After speaking, he led the Ningbo students to brush their sleeves away, and the people from Taizhou also followed...... They were so angry that they forgot that it was a man in a boat, and that the boat was in the middle of the lake, and they didn't remember it until they got to the side of the boat.
But he never came back to be with these people, so he jumped into the water and swam straight to the Jintai Bridge not far away.
Sun Yan was about to get up, but Chen Shounian grabbed his arm, so he gave up.
A lower joint scolded all the celebrities and people were ashamed to die, and the master of Tixue was no exception, and the banquet naturally could not go on anymore, so the painting boat was ordered to hurry to the shore, go back to their own homes, and find their mothers.
The five students of Shaoxing got off the boat, and Chen Shounian was infinitely worried: "Lord Tixue won't be jealous of us, right?" ”
Sun Ling, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly smiled: "What do you hate about us?" We didn't lose his face. ”
Shen nodded silently and said, "Don't be foolish, it won't affect your studies." ”
Chen Shounian said embarrassedly: "Then I'll rest assured......"
Looking at the sky, it was already the willow tops on the moon, and Shen Mo asked, "Where do you go to rest at night?" ”
When asked, there was a place to go. The Sun brothers went to join their uncle who was an official in Hangzhou, Chen Shounian had a cousin in the city, Tao Yuchen winked at Shen Mo and said, "I have my own place to go." "Naturally, I went to Master Tixue and wiped everyone's buttocks.
Shen Mo couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "As long as you have many relatives, why don't I have a cousin in Hangzhou?" ”
Tao Yuchen smiled: "Why don't you join me?" ”
"No, no, no." Shen Mo shook his head, suddenly patted his thigh and said, "By the way, I have a place to go." And he waved goodbye to the crowd.
After parting ways with everyone, Shen An asked in a low voice, "Young Master, you don't want to take me to the Qinglou, do you?" ”
Shen Mo slapped him on the skull, and scolded with a smile: "Have you grown hair?" ”
"Nope." Shen An said ashamedly, walked a few steps and asked, "Young Master, what about you?" Silence almost didn't fall to the ground.
Hangzhou is as hot as a steamer during the day, so everyone travels at night, and there are still many pedestrians on the street at this time, and many shops are still lit up.
Shen Mo seemed to be familiar with this place, and without asking, he strode forward with the little scholar.
Shen An followed behind and said, "Young Master, have you been to Hangzhou before?" ”
"Last life." Shen Mo replied very seriously.
"Young master, you're so funny." Shen An flattered: "Maybe you were from Hangzhou in your last life." ”
"Is it good to be a Hangzhou person?" Shen Mo asked casually.
"Of course, 'there is heaven and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou', everyone seems to live in a painting." Shen An said with infinite envy: "There are many delicious things, West Lake vinegar fish Dongpo meat, fragrant called flower chicken, it makes people drool just thinking about it." After speaking, he whispered: "It would be perfect if you changed two more things." ”
"Which two?" asked with a silent smile.
"First, the house is too expensive, even if I work for the rest of my life, I can't afford to buy a thatched house by the West Lake." Shen An said seriously: "The second is that the carriage on the street is running too fast, and I am scared to watch...... What do you say about this black light and hitting people? ”
The master and servant walked for a long time laughing and laughing, and gradually left the downtown area. Shen An was a little tired, so he asked, "Where are we going?" ”
"Find an inn." He listened to the young master.
"I was going to stay at the hotel." Shen An said depressedly: "We have already passed by several inns, why don't you go in?" ”
"Because I'm looking for an inn."
"Which one?"
"Here we are." Shen Mo finally stopped in front of an inn, Shen An looked up, and saw that the plaque of the inn reads 'IKEA Inn'!
