Chapter 464: A dream of Yangzhou once in ten years
()
Woke up early the next morning, saw that the Peng family's mansion was much busier than the previous two days, those maids and servants put together the eight immortal tables on the house, the eight immortal tables were full of fruits, chickens, ducks and fish, Yang Zheng looked puzzled, and thought that the big man was coming, grabbed Fu Bo and asked, only to know that today is the day to welcome the gods, the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month of the year is the day to send the gods, the gods of the lower world are all ascending to heaven to pay homage to the Jade Emperor and report the good and evil of human behavior when sending the gods, and go down to earth again on the fourth day of the first month. It is said that the gods go to heaven to report on the good and evil in the world, and on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, they will return to the world to continue to accept worship and monitor the good and evil in the world, so it is necessary to be very careful to welcome the gods down to earth on that day, so it is called "the day of receiving the gods".
The oranges and sugarcane placed on the table imply that the wealth is vast and the life is sweet; the second table is pastry, which means high and evergreen; the third table is the main table, which is for the whole pig, the whole chicken, the whole fish, and the ingots soup. Half of the table is rice, noodles, vegetables, a bowl of roadhead rice inserted in a green onion, the green onion tube inserted a millennium red, meaning Xingchong, every year red. The wine and food on the third table must be served only after receiving the five gods of wealth, Yang Zheng looked interesting, saw that Mrs. Peng took Peng Chengfeng, and sent the incense candles to the east, west, south, north, and middle five directions of the God of Wealth Hall to ask for it. After all the reception, the master and the men bowed to the God of Wealth in turn, and after worshipping, the horse curtain on the original offering table was cremated to express the gift to the God of Wealth.
Yang Zheng was looking at it intently, and suddenly saw Duan Yu coming over, winked at him, and said in a low voice: "Brother Yang, how are you doing these days?"
Yang Zheng nodded and said, "It's not bad, it's just boring?"
Duan Yu smiled, and suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the Red Sleeve Move has reopened recently, do you want Brother Yang to go out and have a look?"
"Isn't it okay to visit the Qinglou during the New Year?" Yang Zheng muttered, not immediately agreeing.
Duan Yu thought he wasn't going, so he leaned over and said softly: "I heard that there are a group of singers inside, and there are also small songs, how about Qin Yue'er sing small songs?"
Yang Zheng was a little moved, except for the second lady who often came to see and talk these days, she was really bored, and thought about it: "It's okay, it's so boring here, it's not bad to go out and listen to a little song, and drink a few glasses of water and wine?"
Duan Yu smiled when he heard this: "What Brother Yang said is extremely true, but, this silver?"
Yang Zheng knew that Duan Yu had a family to support, so he was frowning, and patted his chest very proudly, and said, "This silver is placed on me today?
Duan Yu suddenly opened his eyebrows and smiled, "Is it most comfortable to follow Brother Yang?"
"It's just, let's go out like this, what if the eldest lady knows?" Duan Yu asked cautiously.
Yang Zheng's heart had already been provoked at this time, and when he heard Duan Yu's worried words, he was a little annoyed, and said in his heart: "Okay, you Duan Yu, you don't provoke fire, and you don't be responsible for extinguishing fire, isn't this a pastime for me?" glared at him fiercely.
Duan Yu also knew that this was not an authentic question, so he laughed dryly, and craned his neck silently.
Yang Zheng squinted at the Eight Immortals table in front of him, and saw that those subordinates, under the guidance of Mrs. Peng and the eldest lady, had already prepared sacrifices, cakes and fruits, incense candles and other things, and sounded gongs, drums, incense and worship, pious and respectful to the God of Wealth, Peng Chengfeng saluted in turn, and looked like it would not be finished for a while and a half, and thought about it: "This God of Wealth is afraid that it will not be finished for a while, and we can't help much here, besides, we are just going to listen to small songs and drink small wine, and we are not going to be prostitutes, what are we afraid of?"
Duan Yu said cautiously: "Brother Yang, are we really just listening to small songs and drinking water and wine, wouldn't it be a pity?"
Yang Zheng glared at him a little speechlessly, and said angrily: "It's not up to you to decide where you went?"
Duan Yu was stunned for a moment, and then opened his eyebrows and laughed: "Brother Yang said yes!"
Paid attention, while Mrs. Peng and the eldest lady instructed Peng Chengfeng to worship God, Yang Zheng lost a look at Duan Yu, Duan Yu understood, and the two of them sneaked out of the main room, bypassing the atrium and rushing towards the door.
Along the way, it was also smooth, bypassing a few rockeries, the pool arrived in the front yard, Duan Yu was about to open the wooden door, when he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, followed by a voice behind the two: "Bad guy, Duan Yu, what are you doing sneaky?"
Yang Zheng's heart jumped, and he said in his heart: "It won't be so coincidental, right?" Needless to say, the two of them knew who it was-Second Miss!
"Brother Yang is not good, is it the second miss-?" Duan Yu said pitifully.
Yang Zheng didn't expect to meet the second lady here, if she knew, her future husband would be going to sue the eldest lady when he went to the red sleeves, and this girl still had a knife in her arms?"
"Who do I think it is, it turns out to be my little girl?" Yang Zheng stabilized his mind and smiled.
Duan Yu on the side heard the three words of Xiao Obedient, and immediately felt embarrassed, and said in his heart: "This Brother Yang really dares to scream!"
When the second young lady saw that someone was there, Yang Zheng shouted out intimate words that only the two of them knew, her little face turned red, she glared at him fiercely, and said, "Sneaky, what do you want to do again?"
*******
"Look at what you said, I, Yang Zheng, am that kind of person, I haven't done bad things for many years, and I'm doing a good thing now to steal the handsome and leave a fragrance?" Yang Zheng said shamelessly.
"Hmph, I don't know if it's true or not?" said the second lady with a suspicious face.
Yang Zheng said seriously: "Of course it's true, Second Miss, don't you know that I am a person, I have always followed the rules very much, and I never tell lies?"
Duan Yu touched the beads of sweat on his forehead, and said in his heart: "This Brother Yang is really powerful, he blinks when he tells lies, is he a character?"
The second lady wanted to ask something, and suddenly heard the voice of a maid in front of her: "Second miss, the second lady asked you to go to worship God quickly?"
"God help me?" Yang Zheng secretly shouted: "Madame called you, worshipping God is a big deal, as the saying goes: the first day of the first month is a chicken, the second day is a dog, the third day is a pig, the fourth day is a sheep, the fifth day is a cow, the sixth day is a horse, and the seventh day is a person." Zhengdan painted chickens in the door, and posted people in the account on the seventh day. But you can't delay, or it won't work? You should go sooner, right?"
The second young lady looked at him suspiciously, gritted her teeth and said, "Then you wait for me, I'll come when I go, and you can talk to me?"
Yang Zheng nodded and agreed: "Okay, okay, you go quickly, I'm afraid I'll provoke Mrs. to scold me if it's late?"
The second lady answered and turned around, and Duan Yu on the side was admiring.
Yang Zheng glanced around, saw that no one was paying attention to them, and said to Duan Yu: "Okay, it's not too early, let's go, the second miss will come back in a while, but she won't be able to get out?"
……
Duan Yu answered, opened the door, and was about to go out, when he suddenly heard a voice behind him shouting, "Where are you going?"
"Oh my day, I'm not so unlucky, right?" The two laughed, turned around and saw Peng Chengfeng dressed in white, shaking a folding fan and walking over slowly.
Seeing that it was Peng Chengfeng, Yang Zheng hadn't spoken yet, so he heard Duan Yu say: "Look at me this time!"
Yang Zheng was stunned for a moment, then saw Duan Yu walking over with a smile, gently patted Peng Chengfeng's shoulder, glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "Let's go to the Red Sleeves to have some fun, I have always known that the young master likes to listen to tunes very much, I don't know today-?"
As soon as Peng Chengfeng heard the tune, his eyes immediately lit up, he turned his head to look around, and said in a low voice, "Can you take me to see it?"
Duan Yu nodded secretly and said, "Young Master has this Yaxing is the best, today's silver tael, I'm out?"
Peng Chengfeng folded the fan, glanced at Duan Yu appreciatively, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go up!"
Duan Yu smiled and said, "Where!
Yang Zheng was dumbfounded, and said in his heart: "Can't you see that this guy still has this hand?"
Duan Yu and Peng Chengfeng walked over and looked surprised when they saw Yang Zheng, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Yang, let's go!"
The three of them went out of the gate, and the three of them started with Duan Yu and rushed to the red sleeves.
At this time, it is the morning, the West Lake is very lively, because it is the New Year, the peach willow is thick and cloudy, the red and green are wrong, the rope, the hussar, the flying money, the ball, the kicking wood, the sand, the swallowing knife, the fire spitting, the circle, the Jin Dou and the play of all kinds of birds and insects, all gathered. There is also buying and selling, fragrant tea and fine fruits, and what is needed in wine. And the makeup puppets, lotus boats and war horses, ao sheng and drums, and trivial play equipment to delight Tong Cao are not lively in the rendering of an ancient city of Hangzhou in Chengshi.
The three of them walked around the street, enjoying the scenery of the street and feeling the atmosphere of the New Year, Peng Chengfeng seemed extremely happy, and pulled Duan Yu and Yang Zheng and said, "Brother Duan, Brother Yang, thank you today?"
Yang Zheng smiled and said, "It's nothing, in fact, we didn't do anything?"
Duan Yu on the side also said: "Yes, we just brought the young master out, it's nothing, don't talk about this little thing, as long as I can help the young master, don't talk about going up to Dao Mountain and getting into the oil pot, I'm also willing to help the young master?"
Yang Zheng paused for a moment and said in a low voice: "When did this guy become so shameless?
Duan Yu seemed to see the surprise in Yang Zheng's eyes, and leaned over and whispered: "Didn't Brother Yang say that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people are cheap, they will be invincible, and I will start to learn from Brother Yang?"
Yang Zheng sweated profusely, pretending to be confused: "Did I say this?" “
Duan Yu smiled and didn't speak.
The three of them talked and laughed, and after a while, they came to the red sleeve move. After the last assassination, Yang Zheng thought that the Red Sleeves was about to close, but at this moment, he realized that he obviously underestimated the charm of the ancient Qinglou.
Qinglou culture was very popular as early as the Tang Dynasty. The intellectuals of the Tang Dynasty took walking around the Qinlou Chu Pavilion as one of their main businesses, from Yuan Bai to Li Du, without exception. In Du Mu's poems, you can see too many works of "Don't drink the official ji" and "Chagn Lou drama gift", and the dream of Yangzhou once in ten years won the name of Qinglou Bo Xing.
These places are indispensable places for literati in addition to temples, families, rivers and lakes, but where there is the sound of reading, there must be a green building.
