Li Ruofan invited his sister, Song Yunting and classmates from several drama clubs of Lan Yuxuan to eat Western food at the famous Liuguo Hotel in Minxiang in the eastern suburbs. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although he retreated a few times, he still couldn't resist Song Ping'an after all, so he and the big housekeeper of the Song Mansion took a box of small yellow croakers to Dongtangzi Hutong in Dongcheng.

That's it, Song Ping'an also said apologetically that he had taken advantage of his juniors. Of course, for Li Ruofan, with this box of gold bars, it is naturally more or less an income.

Li Ruofan didn't expect that drama would be so popular at Yenching University now, of course, the university was the first to accept new ideas. It's also interesting, if you act in movies and sing Peking Opera, everyone thinks it's a lowly profession, but drama, at that time, was a new type of drama that existed as a foreign product, but it was a performance that everyone thought was high.

Because of the large number of people, Li Ruofan simply asked for a big box. But as soon as he sat down, the classmates belonging to two different clubs sat on both sides of the table distinctly, which made Li Ruofan a little funny.

Li Ruoyun looked at this loser's brother with some unhappiness, how much does a Western meal cost! She received a letter from her father in advance.

But in front of her classmates, she was embarrassed to say it, after all, this was her brother's help to earn face.

In 1901, a Belgian sleeping-car company specializing in train carriages built a Western-style hotel called the Rand Hotel des Wagon-Lits on the east side of the Yuhe River in Beijing. In 1905, Britain, France, the United States, Germany, Japan and Russia jointly ventured to tear down this Western-style hotel and rebuild it and named it the Six Nations Hotel.

At that time, the Six Nations Hotel was a place where ministers, officials and upper-class people from various countries often stayed, dined and entertained, forming a meeting place for dignitaries and dignitaries. In addition, some military and political dignitaries who stepped down at that time often took refuge here.

There have been thrilling stories here, such as Yuan Datou's assassination of Zhang Zhenwu, the hero of the Wu-Chang Uprising, Zhang Dashuai's assassination of Shao Piaoping, Hu Die's scandal with Zhang Xueliang, and so on.

Although it is said that the Six Nations Hotel brought Western bread, coffee, steak, and a complete set of dining etiquette to the people of Peking for the first time. But in Li Ruofan's view, it can't even reach the level of McDonald's fast food in later generations, but at this time, it is very modern enjoyment.

When Li Ruofan saw the waiter in a suit and bow tie coming over with the menu, he took the initiative to order food for his sister and other classmates.

Salmon, sardines, steak, pork chops, chicken curry rice, tomato chicken shredded rice, drinks Li Ruofan asked for whiskey for himself, and asked for beer for the boys, and the girls for soda and lemon juice.

It can be seen that some people have eaten Western food, and the history books are chattering about how to stack snow-white napkins, how to use knives and forks, and how to avoid chewing as much as possible when eating, including the gentleman's rule of giving priority to ladies in everything.

Of course, the object of his dedication is Song Yunting.

Although Song Yunting and Li Ruoyun are good friends, they don't have any idea of looking at the object when they can come over today. In my heart, I don't look down on this Li Ruofan who is full of money. That's why there is a scene where a group of people come over.

At that time, girls, especially female students who were studying, were idols who were talented writers, writers and poets who wrote new poems, novels, and dramas. And Li Ruofan obviously does not belong to this category.

Since ancient texts, there is no first martial arts and no second, after listening to a few words, Li Ruofan also heard a rough idea, the Nanguo Society where Shi Shuyun is located and the Chunliu Society where Ouyang Shutong is located are somewhat discordant.

But now the Nanguo Society is rehearsing a new play, and the advertisements have been released, and it will be performed at the China Grand Theater at the end of the month, and it is said that it is still a play between Tian Han and Guo Moruo.

Now Shi Shuyun is persuading Song Yunting to join the Nanguo Society, and promised to let her play the B role of the female number one, that is, a substitute.

"That's "Zhuo Wenjun" written by Mr. Guo Moruo, what a rare opportunity!"

Ouyang Shutong buried his head in dealing with the steak in the plate, after all, he couldn't say anything, although the Chunliu Club was established early, but now it is a little outdated, there is no good script, and naturally the actors are all lost.

Of course, Shi Shuyun is drunk and warm, not in wine, but when I saw that not only the eyes of several girls were revolving around Shi Shuyun, but even my sister was adoring.

Li Ruofan is not happy! Pay for Shi Shuyun's rival performance?

Li Ruofan picked up the whiskey and took a sip, this foreign wine was actually not delicious at all: "Isn't it just a drama?

Shi Shuyun was stunned for a moment: "Who said this? Do you know drama? Guo Moruo's drama, do you know how many people are competing for this B corner?"

Li Ruofan laughed: "I don't understand drama? This is really a joke that is not funny." ”

Li Ruoyun said angrily: "Brother! Don't make trouble! You have been listening to opera in Shanghai all year round, and you will definitely sing Peking Opera!"

Li Ruofan was worried that his brother would have a bigger appearance, so he simply pointed it out. She had never heard her brother talk about anything related to drama, and her mother said that her brother was obsessed with a drama in Shanghai, so how could it be good to have such a lazy brother?

Song Yunting is her good friend, and another good friend Lan Yuxuan is also there, she doesn't want to go back and be teased by her best friend and can't hold her head up.

Shi Shuyun was well-informed, and he knew that there was a young master from Jinling, and he was a little vigilant, but when Li Ruoyun opened his mouth like this, he was relieved.

"Does Mr. Tian Khan know? This time we are rehearsing two plays, and Mr. Tian Khan's "Night of the Tiger" will definitely be hard to find at that time. We have all planned to perform for a month, and the Jinmanlou Theater diagonally opposite the China Grand Theater will be Mr. Mei Lanfang's Peking Opera at that time, and Young Master Li will definitely like it. ”

Li Ruofan glanced at Shi Shuyun, who pretended to be reserved, this person was more subtle and more clever in his means of stepping on people. Li Ruofan naturally has a kind of indifference, which makes Shi Shuyun feel a little more threatening for no reason.

Looking at Ouyang Shutong beside him, Li Ruofan smiled and said, "Does Jinmanlou Theater only perform Peking Opera?"

Ouyang Shutong said: "How come? The first floor of the Jinmanlou Theater is a department store, the second floor is Peking Opera, and the third floor is a small song. By the way, Jin Manlou is not opened by Song Yunting's house. ”

Li Ruofan smiled: "So, the third floor is also a big stage, which can be used for dramas?"

Ouyang Shu said: "Of course you can, if you really want to talk about it, it is no worse than the seats at the China Grand Theater, and our dramas have also been performed in Jinmanlou before." ”

Shi Shuyun chuckled and said: "Don't take out those old yellow calendars, the translation of foreign dramas, who likes to watch them, we are the future and direction of Chinese dramas!"

Li Ruofan said with a smile: "Young Master Shi is so confident, do you dare to make a bet against Taiwan?"

"Bet?" Shi Shuyun was stunned, "What are you betting?
