Chapter Seventy-Three: Sun's Drum
It wasn't until it was getting late that Yue Hanwen pushed the game with the group of players who came from nowhere.
After losing a few hundred in the whole day, Yue Hanwen's face did not change, and he practiced money to the extreme, and his mentality was quite good. Later, the yellow-haired thug came to work, and not only won back the money he had lost, but also made a small profit of more than a hundred years inside and out, which made him very happy, as if he had gained a great benefit.
When the stall was dispersed, Ermao also smiled and agreed to come back tomorrow, looking like he didn't have enough to take advantage of.
When the crowd completely dispersed, Su Yiyang and Gu Nanqiao finally greeted them.
"Uncle Yue, are you free at this time...... I want to talk to you. ”
"We're going to close the door to eat, what are we still doing here?" Yue Hanwen lifted his eyelids, his eyes swept over Gu Nanqiao and Su Yiyang's bodies, and then took it back casually, "What's the matter, I still plan to eat without success, hurry up, I only have food for two people in this small courtyard, and I don't have your share." ”
"I won't delay your meal, Uncle Yue-"
As soon as Yue Hanwen turned around, he beckoned to the gate of the compound, and the parrot flew over with good training.
"Give me ten minutes, or five minutes......"
Seeing that Yue Hanwen didn't leave directly, Gu Nanqiao hurriedly spoke, and hurriedly stepped forward again, "I want to talk to you about the spring garden, you may not know, after the old troupe was disbanded, my master ran a private theater troupe, and it has been ...... in the past few years."
Who knows, Gu Nanqiao just started to talk, and was interrupted by Yue Hanwen's sneer.
"Come on, did he Fan Lingchu open a troupe or a theater troupe, what does it have to do with me Yue Hanwen? Everyone was in the old troupe back then, you sold the door god and he sold the ghost, barely half of the same family. Now that even the door is scattered, naturally there is no extra affection, whoever is good will take it...... I didn't let you have fun at home, but you can't come all the way to come and come to me unpleasantly, right?"
Then, Yue Hanwen put his elbow against the door frame, which had the meaning of directly driving people.
"Then, don't you send it slowly?"
Gu Nanqiao and Su Yiyang looked at each other, they really didn't expect Yue Hanwen to be so unkind.
Even if it's a three-way house, there is a cup of tea to welcome guests. The two of them waited for nothing for the whole afternoon, and they didn't get any chance to talk in detail, but they also complained about it, where can they be reasonable?
In the end, Yuexi River, who came back from setting up a stall, broke the siege.
"Forget it, brother. ”
Seeing Gu Nanqiao's helpless gaze for help, Yue Xihe walked slowly to the door with a cane in one hand, and pushed the dilapidated red lacquered door open.
"It's not easy for two children to come all the way here. The people who are not familiar with the place, and Songjia Village is such an environment, so leave them for dinner before leaving. ”
"I'm begging them to come," Yue Hanwen raised his eyelids, hooked the corners of his lips and laughed mockingly, "Isn't it that they are in a hurry to find it themselves, and who is too lazy?"
Saying this, Yue Hanwen finally relented, he withdrew his arm that was across the door frame, turned around in a dashing manner, and walked towards the compound like an uncle, and tacitly let these two people who came from afar, rushing to find unhappy friends to enter the door.
After that, this meal can be said to have made Gu Nanqiao stunned, and after many years, he still felt that his temples were beating and hurting.
At the dinner table, although Yue Hanwen was not cold, but between the lines, the praise and implicit derogation of Sang and Huai, and the whole process was never broken, so that the business negotiations were so good that they talked about the taste of the Hongmen banquet.
Gu Nanqiao endured the numbness of her scalp, and adhered to the posture that no matter what the result was, she couldn't come in vain, she pretended not to see Yue Hanwen's sinking face, and stubbornly pulled the topic to the top of the spring garden. Then she and Su Yiyang went hand in hand, talking about business planning from the old days, from the development of Peking Opera today, to the bright future of spring in the future.
It can be said that everything that can be thought of and can be said is what Gu Nanqiao said.
But Yue Hanwen was always unmoved, and he didn't even bother to give extra glances, as if these were floating clouds, which would soon drift away with the wind, and it was not worth using his brain at all.
Compared with direct rejection, the biggest sense of powerlessness is the indifference expressed by the other party.
After all, if it is a refusal, it will give a reason, or it is dissatisfied with the conditions or the status quo, or there is something in the bottom of the heart that cannot be relieved, always because of something. And when these concerns are addressed, the problem will be solved, and we can continue to work together or build other relationships – in other words, there is room to continue talking.
But Yue Hanwen is true, and he doesn't take these things seriously at all.
His contempt and indifference are revealed from his bones, Gu Nanqiao's so-called affection can't poke his pain points, Su Yiyang's interests are not taken to heart by him, and even because of the changes in the old troupe, he is completely chilled, and even talking about the so-called pursuit or ethereal dreams can no longer make this old artist moved.
It's equivalent to a salesperson with outstanding eloquence, no matter how much he talks about it, he can't persuade the blind to get short-sighted glasses, and people will only point to his empty eyes: "Young man, I don't need it, you should hurry up and persuade others." ”
In this way, Yue Hanwen did not say it directly, but his attitude was already quite obvious.
Seeing that he was talking about the collapse, Gu Nanqiao sighed lowly, and he no longer had hope for this trip. Her long eyelashes drooped slightly, many complex emotions precipitated in her eyes, and she no longer gave Yue Xihe, who was relatively easy to speak, a look for help, leaving only an indescribable regret and sourness surging in.
Somehow, Gu Nanqiao suddenly thought that it was Solomon's bottle, the conversation between the devil and the fisherman.
In the first century, the devil thought that whoever saved him would have spent his entire life with money that he would not be able to spend. But a century passed, and no one came to his rescue. In the second century, the devil thought, whoever saved him, dug up all the treasures in the ground for him. But there was still no one to save him. ”
"In the third century, the devil said to himself, 'Whoever saves me in this century, I will surely repay him and fulfill his three desires.'" But there was still no one to save him. He had been in the sea for four hundred years, and he swore an oath: 'Whoever comes to save me now, I will kill him.' Then the fisherman retrieved the bottle and saved him. ”
Sometimes, belated hope is more chilling than no hope at all.
"Uncle Han Wen, Uncle Xihe......"
Thinking like this, Gu Nanqiao bit his lower lip tightly and spoke with some difficulty.
"I know what you mean, I...... I'm sorry, this time it was me and Su Yiyang who were abrupt and disturbed your lives. It's just that...... The garden is full of spring and really needs you, and the big guys in the old troupe really want you to go back, if you can change your mind......"
Regarding Gu Nanqiao's affection and reason, Yue Xihe seemed to be moved in a flash.
His thin lips touched up and down, as if something was tossing between his lips and teeth, and he was swallowed alive.
And before he could hold back his thoughts, Yue Hanwen's casual banter and laughter came first, he leaned back in the chair, one leg crossed on the other knee, and the parrot jumped on the dinner table after tea and dinner, and from time to time grabbed a few grains of rice that the master put in the palm of his hand and devoured them, making a few crisp and beautiful chirps.
"After the meal is eaten, the conversation has been discussed, can we send off the guests now? ”
Gu Nanqiao frowned tightly, he couldn't say what he wanted to say, only a silent sigh.
The loss in her eyes stung Su Yiyang, almost instinctively, Su Dashao stretched out his hand, soothed it on the back of the girl's soft and delicate hand, and patted it gently.
Gu Nanqiao turned his head sideways in some surprise, and then saw Su Yiyang curling the corners of his lips and chuckled.
Facing the person on the edge of the table who was holding the best rice to feed the parrots, and at this time the silence was better than the voice of the eviction order, Su Yiyang finally stopped weighing the so-called balance of interests, and did not care about the impact of revealing his scars, almost in that moment, he finally decided something.
The final hole cards, it's time to show them.
"Uncle Yue, if you don't touch the above conditions, then I'll add one more. I saw Su Yiyang stand up, pour a full glass of wine, bend those smiling eyes, and open his mouth unhurriedly.
Prior to this, Gu Nanqiao was an Uncle Yue, Uncle Han Wen shouted, but Su Yiyang did not have a deeper friendship with the Yue brothers, so he just shouted "Teacher Yue" politely and thoughtfully.
At this moment, he suddenly changed his words.
Yue Hanwen didn't react to Su Yiyang's abnormal change, he just continued to tease the bird carelessly, without taking the toast, and didn't even raise his eyelids.
Su Yiyang ignored Yue Hanwen's reaction, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and when he put down the empty glass, he took out the jade pendant from his coat pocket and put it on the table together. It is a piece of black black jade, the jade is firm and warm, black as ink, the color is heavy and greasy, even those who don't know how to taste jade can see that the jade pendant texture is fine, it is a rare superlative.
When he saw this jade pendant, it was obvious that the faces of the Yue brothers had changed.
Gu Nanqiao looked at Su Yiyang with some surprise, he really didn't know what kind of medicine Su Dashao was selling in the gourd, and why did the Yue brothers give such a big reaction?
As soon as Su Yiyang entered the door, Yue Hanwen didn't give this son-in-law a good look.
After all, he has never been accustomed to businessmen who are full of copper stench, and he is not happy to deal with laymen who don't understand Peking Opera at all, and when he saw Su Yiyang at first glance, his first reaction was that this son and brother had taken up both, and he also had a cynical prodigal atmosphere, so Yue Hanwen even felt that it was a waste of his tongue and he was simply too lazy to deal with it.
But now it seems that Su Yiyang can not only have a relationship with the Peking Opera circle.
It's an authentic old man.
"The Ji family is a young student and a family dan, and the Yue family's pianist is a ...... of the Sun family's drums" Su Yiyang ignored the surprise of everyone present, and said unhurriedly, with a little calm and relaxed, "If the old troupe invites you, can the Sun drum please move your old man, Uncle Yue?"
Yue Hanwen didn't answer Su Yiyang's question directly, but just looked at him meaninglessly and asked lightly.
"Sun's Drum...... Boy, who are you Sun Muying?"
