318 Banquet (It's not too late, two more ask for tickets)
There are many pedestrians on the streets of the town, and many of them are surrounded by beautiful women in bright kimonos. Luo Fei didn't believe that these women were the wives of those people.
When he saw Takahide Kurosawa, the pedestrians on the street would nod to him, but no one came up to talk.
Kurosawa Takahide also smiled and nodded in response one by one, and his bearing was heartbreaking.
And Luo Fei was personally accompanied by Takahide Kurosawa, so naturally many people looked at him curiously, but these people were very polite and didn't stare at him vigorously.
Obviously, the head of the Kurosawa family can be accompanied by himself, so that these people feel that Luo Fei's status must not be low. If it weren't for the fact that the current royal family can often see it on TV, I'm afraid some people will think that Luo Fei is the prince.
Under the vague scrutiny of these people, Luo Fei followed Kurosawa Takahide to a magnificent building.
It's just a little taller than other houses.
This is related to the architectural style of the Edo period.
The Edo period was a relatively prosperous period in Japanese history, and it was a relatively stable period compared to the turbulent years that preceded it, and the civic culture developed, which inevitably affected the construction industry. In terms of architectural style, the luxurious shoin building was influenced by the hermitage-style teahouse, forming the famous Sukiya style.
The Sukiya style is a far-reaching architectural style in the history of Japanese architecture, laying the foundation for Japanese architecture.
In terms of structural form, it follows the practice of the frame structure and lightweight star roof built by the academy, and the interior design abolishes the cumbersome decoration and replaces it with a simple composition.
This is not a simple abandonment, it is an abstract approach to seek balance in the composition of the space. And the natural expression of the material is pressed. This is a kind of conciseness that has been carefully considered, and in a sense is in line with the principles of formal composition of modern architecture.
Meantime. It still emphasizes the flexible division of space, and achieves the effect of integrating with the external environment through the use of transparent exterior walls and semi-outdoor spaces such as verandahs. Due to the relatively recent age. Many buildings from this period have survived to this day, among which the famous "Katsura Imperial Palace" in the history of architecture is one of the representative examples.
Katsura Rikyu Palace was the residence of the Japanese Imperial Family, and it absorbed the different architectural cultures of the aristocracy, samurai, and commoners, and integrated them, and many of the characteristics of Sukiya are fully expressed in this building.
In particular, it is worth mentioning that in the relationship between interior and exterior, it does not have the image of royalty above nature, but emphasizes the integration with the environment, forming an easy and natural architectural style. This emphasis on communication with the outside world is one of the most important features of traditional Japanese architecture. It originates from the traditional cultural psychology of advocating nature.
If you visit the classical buildings and gardens left in the ancient city of Kyoto, you will be able to appreciate this even more deeply. Sukiya architecture stereotyped and passed down this cultural psychology to the present day, and continues to be used in today's Japanese-style architecture and even modern architecture, forming a major part of Japanese architectural thought.
Shukiya style is a mature architectural form formed by the combination of Japanese architectural culture and the dungeon environment in the long-term development, it directly affects Japan's modern architecture as the essence of Japanese traditional architectural culture, and the relevant design concepts and their specific practices constitute the main part of Japanese Japanese-style architecture, which not only represents Japan's traditional architectural culture, but also applies to modern architecture, bringing regional color to modern architecture.
This town is completely in the style of Sukiya. The interior and exterior structures are built in the Sukiya style, so it is difficult to have any so-called domineering atmosphere on the outside.
Many people were waiting in front of the door of this house, obviously because Takahide Kurosawa personally went out to greet Luo Fei, so they had to pretend.
Even if it's pretending. It's also because Takahide Kurosawa is on the side, these people are quite in place.
Kurosawa Takahide didn't introduce too many people to Luo Fei, but just pointed to two young people who looked similar to Kurosawa Tomono and said, "This is my second son, Hikojiro Kurosawa." This is my third son, Eiza Kurosawa. ”
The second and third elders of the Kurosawa family all respectfully stepped forward to salute Luo Feifei.
Although they looked down on Luo Fei in their hearts, because he was a guest of his father Takahide Kurosawa. I had to solemnly perform the etiquette of meeting the elders.
Luo Fei didn't understand this, so he had to return the gift with his pitiful knowledge.
But there was no big mess in the end. It's just that Kurosawa's two brothers don't feel very comfortable.
As an elder, Luo Fei didn't have too many restrictions, but his casual attitude gave the two brothers the feeling that they didn't value themselves and even despised themselves.
If Luo Fei knew what they were thinking, he would probably be injustice. This time, he really didn't mean to lose face for the two brothers.
God can see mercy, Luo Fei really doesn't understand this!
Kurosawa Takaxiu seemed to see that Luo Fei didn't understand these traditional etiquette too well, so he smiled and led everyone into the house.
This phenomenon is very common, how many young people can understand traditional etiquette today?
The space in the house is huge, and the style of Sukiya architecture is everywhere. It's just that Luo Fei doesn't know anything about it, so he can be regarded as flattering to the blind man.
The crowd took off their clogs and rushed in, kneeling on the ground one by one.
Obviously, everyone's position is exquisite, and they don't know much about Luo Fei. Fortunately, he is the host and the only guest, so naturally he has a special place.
Kurosawa Tomono had long known that his master was a straw bale in this regard, so he informed his father early, and then knelt on Luo Fei's left rear without saying a word. In that way, it seems to be Luo Fei's entourage.
Not to mention that Kurosawa Tomono admires and respects Luo Fei, just talking about his father's attitude towards Luo Fei, he also has to serve his master with all his heart.
For Kurosawa's slightly suspicious behavior, his two younger brothers were obviously a little contemptuous, and they both looked at Kurosawa Tomono with mocking eyes.
But after Kurosawa Tomono sat down, he looked at his nose and his nose, his nose and his heart, lowered his head, and completely stopped looking at other people.
Luo Fei chatted with Takahide Kurosawa very casually about swordsmanship. However, Luo Fei's understanding of Japanese kendo is not necessarily as good as that of Kurosawa Takahide, so this guy is more about discussing the skills and practice methods with the other party.
In this way, Takahide Kurosawa's evaluation of this Nobuo Nakano in his heart has risen by another level. Without him, Luo Fei's insights are not comparable to ordinary masters, and often in a few words, Kurosawa Takahide has a feeling of being stunned. In his opinion, his son met a good teacher.
Since it is a banquet, it is natural to eat. The rest of the things can be talked about slowly after the meal.
On the way here, Kurosawa Tomono had already given Luo Fei a vaccination, and Luo Fei knew that a formal dinner like this was very troublesome. Even how to eat has a set of procedures.
For this reason, Luo Fei also went through some bad supplements from Kurosawa Tomono, but after all, he had never actually operated it, and in the face of the food served, he felt that he had nowhere to eat.
Many people in the room can see that this master of Kurosawa Tomono is a vulgar ordinary person, or someone directly divides the Nakano Nobuo played by Luo Fei into the insulting ranks of untouchables in their hearts.
They all guessed that this was the first time that Nobuo Nakano had participated in such a banquet.
With Luo Fei's arrogant posture in the early stage, these people, except for Kurosawa Takahide, probably want to wait to see Luo Fei's jokes.
And Kurosawa Tomono doesn't eat, he sits beside Luo Fei like a young man who serves his elders wholeheartedly, helping Luo Fei Bucai from time to time, telling him what to do.
With the thickness of Luo Fei's face, even if he eats Haisai himself, he will not feel embarrassed, but now with Kurosawa Zhiye's help, he will not take other people's eyes to heart.
And Kurosawa Takahide looked at his eldest son, and there was a little more relief.
The master who serves himself can still serve himself without estimating his personal face and serving him wholeheartedly, so what about his own father? Obviously, filial children will be treated by their elders wherever they go, and Kurosawa Takahide's favor for his eldest son has increased by another point.
And all this fell in the eyes of Hikojiro Kurosawa and Eimasa Kurosawa, who were waiting to see Luo Fei's jokes, it was not so wonderful. The two looked at each other secretly, and everything was silent.
Takahide Kurosawa entertained Luo Fei with a very high-standard original meal. The rules of this dish are directly proportional to its specifications.
Originating from the imperial court cuisine of the Heian period, this cuisine is one of the highest standards of hospitality in Japan, and it places great emphasis on etiquette and etiquette.
During the Muromachi period, the third shogun, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, made strict and detailed regulations on the content of Japanese cuisine, the utensils used, the order in which the dishes were served, the way they were placed, and the order in which the dishes were served, and they became the current honzen cuisine.
The highest dish of this cuisine is three soups and fifteen dishes, which are divided into five trays (five meals). Nowadays, the common basic dishes are one soup and three dishes, one soup and five dishes, two soups and five dishes, and three soups and seven dishes. The more complete form is three soups and seven dishes, and the others are simplified forms of this cuisine. There should be no even numbers in the menu, and if there is only one soup and four dishes in one soup and five dishes, it is called one soup with five dishes.
"Meal" is a rectangular tray with feet about 40 cm high, on which dishes are placed and served to customers, if there are five trays, it is called "five meals". When the dishes are served, the dishes of the five meals should be divided into five times, which are called the first meal (also called "original meal"), the second meal, the third meal, the fourth meal (also called "barbecue meal"), and the fifth meal (also called "gift meal"). There are different sizes, legs and no feet, and there are strict rules on where they are placed.
Usually, the tray for the first meal is larger than the others, and a footless tray is used when there are less than one soup or three dishes. Originally, lacquerware was used for serving dishes, but porcelain was also used in the Edo period.
Takahide Kurosawa makes people use porcelain.
These porcelains are all pure black, and Luo Fei can't say why, but when he touches them, he thinks they are all high-end goods. (To be continued......)
