Chapter 268: Drinking Tea

In Hemingway's "Iceberg Theory", it is mainly emphasized that the work is hidden to a certain extent, the combination of fiction and reality, and emphasizes the use of "hidden" and "virtual" to stimulate the reader's imagination, so that readers can supplement and recreate themselves under the guidance of the "exposure" and "reality" of the work, so as to achieve less and more.

Rather than giving more tasks to the reader, this theory reduces the pressure on the reader while reading. Because of the more concise language, the reader can better understand what the author wants to express.

Then stimulate your imagination to make up the deep meaning in your brain.

Just like "The Old Man and the Sea", in order to express what it wants to express, Hemingway can extend more than the old man, and his battle with the fish can also be written a little more beautifully.

But Hemingway didn't do this, he just wrote such a simple story, integrating multiple meanings into such a simple story, although the text is simple, but there is great artistic tension, so that readers can fully mobilize their imagination in the process of reading.

Zhuang Yan sat in front of the computer, thought for a while, and finally decided not to put forward this "iceberg" theory, not because stealing Hemingway's things would make him ashamed, but because he knew that he didn't need to set up this kind of flag, because Hemingway's minimalist style could not be his inherent style in the future.

His style will be ever-changing, as this in itself is not under his own control and depends entirely on the dreams he makes.

I wanted to call to thank Lian Liwen for his praise, but I found that I didn't even have the other party's phone number, so I had to give up, and I had to wait until we met again in the future.

After working in the study for a while, Zhuang Yan received a call from Duan Chery asking him to come over for dinner at noon. Zhuang Yan wanted to refuse politely, but Duan Qirui was really resolute and had to invite Zhuang Yan to this meal, Zhuang Yan only nodded and agreed.

……

When he came to Duan Qirui's house again, Zhuang Yan did not bring fruit this time, but bought a little good tea from outside and brought it over. Zhuang Yan came to Duan Qirui's house and knew that his house only had melon slices, and he only drank melon slices, so he bought a pack of melon slices before the rain.

Speaking of buying tea, there was also an episode in the middle, Zhuang Yan ran to the tea market to sell tea and just walked to a store. Hearing that Zhuang Yan asked for melon slices, he took out a bag of tea and told him that this was a special melon slice before the Ming Dynasty.

Hearing this, Zhuang Yan turned around and left without saying a word, the shopkeeper didn't expect people to come in and leave without saying a word, and stood in place and was stunned for a while.

The reason why Zhuang Yan wants to leave is because this boss is not authentic. He is a tea seller, can he not know that there is no distinction between melon slices before and after Ming?

Not all green tea has pre-Ming Dynasty, and the melon slices are late in tea, basically before and after the valley rain, and there is no such thing as pre-Ming special grade.

Zhuang Yan didn't think that the shopkeeper didn't know, he must be trying to fool himself. Although Zhuang Yan doesn't drink much tea, Wang Lijian and Duan Qirui both love to drink melon slices, so of course they know this kind of common sense.

Carrying tea leaves knocked on Duan Qirui's door, this time it was Duan Qirui's wife who came to open the door.

Seeing Zhuang Yan carrying a bag of tea, He Yin subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he came back to his senses, he took Zhuang Yan's tea with a smile and said: "Hey, you can come, what else do you bring, he can't finish Lao Duan's tea himself, and it is estimated that it will be next year to drink your tea." ”

At this time, Chery also walked over, and he glanced at the tea leaves: "Melon slices, it's not bad, Xiao He can take the tea into it and open it, today we will drink Zhuang Yan's tea first." ”

He Yin rolled his eyes, "You're still more energetic." ”

After speaking, she smiled and said to Zhuang Yan: "Then Zhuang Yan, you go and sit down first, and I will make tea for you." ”

When He Yin entered the kitchen, Duan Qirui smiled and pulled Zhuang Yan into the living room, and as soon as the two sat down, Duan Qirui said: "Why do you remember to bring tea, didn't you tell you not to bring anything last time?"

Zhuang Yan joked: "Old Duan, you are a former high-ranking city official, I should come over and walk through your back door and bring some tea." ”

Zhuang Yan also saw He Yin's reaction when he opened the door just now, and probably guessed why He Yin reacted that way. It is estimated that people often come to give gifts, and Duan Chery must not accept them.

Duan Qirui heard Zhuang Yan joking, and also joked: "Okay, since I also accepted your gift, the hands of people are short, what back door do you want to go through, just tell me, I will naturally help you do it." Although I am a former high-ranking city official, I still have connections. ”

"I didn't ask for much, I just wanted to be a mayor. Zhuang Yan joked.

Duan Qirui touched his chin and shook his head thoughtfully: "I'm afraid the mayor can't do it, if it's the deputy mayor, it's okay." ”

"Haha, Old Duan, you really like to joke. Zhuang Yan said with a smile.

Duan Qirui shook his head again, "I'm not joking, if you want to be the deputy mayor, I'll run it for you when you go back, and promise to let you get what you want." ”

Zhuang Yan was stunned at this time, and thought that Duan Qirui was telling the truth.

Duan Qirui was stunned when he saw Zhuang Yan, and suddenly laughed: "Do you really believe it? You are the Jinling Municipal Party Committee and Government is my family's vegetable garden, and whoever you want to be the mayor can be the mayor." ”

Zhuang Yan was stunned again, and then smiled awkwardly: "It's that I'm thinking too much." ”

At this time, He Yin also walked over with two cups of tea, and asked with a smile: "What are you two talking about, you two can be heard laughing in the kitchen." ”

"When talking about tea, it is not a simple matter to drink Zhuang Yan's tea, but he said that after drinking this tea, he will make him the mayor. Duan Qirui said.

He Yin ignored him at all, pouted and said: "Listen to your nonsense, okay, you two have a good chat here, I'll go prepare lunch for you, Zhuang Yan has nothing to taboo, if you tell me, I'll pay attention." ”

Zhuang Yan smiled and shook his head: "No, I'm not a picky eater." ”

When He Yin left, Duan Qirui took a sip of the teacup and nodded: "This tea is not bad, it was before the rain." ”

Zhuang Yan also took a sip, but he didn't taste anything, what was the difference between before and after the rain, he couldn't drink it at all.

"I also bought it blindly, I don't usually drink tea myself, and I don't study these things. If this good tea is given to me to drink, it will be like a cow chewing a peony, and it will destroy the heavens. Zhuang Yan said with a smile.

Duan Qirui shook his head: "There's no need to pay too much attention to it, drinking tea is no different from drinking other drinks, it just depends on whether you like it or not, and it's not that tea drinkers and coffee drinkers are higher than drinking yogurt, they are just a kind of favorite drinks, if you can't even recognize this, the tea is also drunk in vain." ”
