Chapter 32: Da Ming Da Vinci
Since the third day of the first lunar month, Lu Xiaochai has returned to the Huancai Building to get busy, the float parade of the Huancai Building has been launched, Feng Niang is bound to create a huge momentum for the Xiangyun girl, and beat the top card in the remaining three Qinglou of the same specifications, and Lu Xiaochai as the first Oiran in Hangzhou City who won the first place in the last Oiran Competition, under Feng Niang's prodding, it is naturally incumbent on him to help improve Xiangyun's skills.
Chen Xianben does not like to be lively, under the strong request of Xiaochai, only reluctantly accompanied her to see a few times, the float is actually a moving stage, the people on the stage or song or dance to attract popularity, the most lively every day in the unitary time, at this time Huancailou, Drunken Immortal Pavilion, Miaoyin Fang, Dream Pavilion in Hangzhou, the four major green buildings in Hangzhou, as well as some of the famous Qinglou Lingyuan, will let this year's strong girl board the beautifully arranged float, the line to the Fang City between the performance and fame.
At this time, the crowd on the street often rubs shoulders with each of these girls with a flower ball in their hands, and if they like a certain boy on the side of the road, they will throw the flower ball over so that the boy can meet the famous man that night.
This pattern of throwing flower balls also has an elegant name, called "early picking flower branches", the meaning is simple and clear: you receive the flower balls, you don't need to wait for the fifteenth Oiran Dabi, you can come to the future Oiran earlier than others, appreciate its beautiful appearance, observe its skills.
It seems that since the Tang Dynasty, this kind of play has been spreading, and the poet Liu Yuxi also wrote such a sentence in a poem "Five-color Embroidery Reunion": "See the flowers and branches early in spring, and hate the dynasty late." and look at the flowers behind, but remember the time before they bloomed. Fortunately, there is a ball throwing music, a cup of gentleman. ”
Similar to the fact that a certain son likes to have a flower ball, and a certain young master grabs the flower branch early, this kind of romantic affair is like a pervasive wind, so that Chen Xian, who is taking a small fence to open meat in the middle of the Hui Food at this moment, is not very disturbed.
Hui Shiju is a well-known restaurant, although from the outside, it is only a two-storey building that is not magnificent, but because of the excellent taste and close to the school and the business is prosperous, every time it is close to the autumn season, but also because of a rock sugar soft-shelled turtle that means "dominant", so that many people who rush to take the exam will squeeze this small shop into the slightest wind.
At this moment, Chen Xianzheng was bored with the chopsticks in his hand to pick up the vegetables, the lion's head in the pottery bowl was steaming, glutinous and fragrant, and the chopsticks were divided into two petals with a little force, revealing the filling inside.
"Hey! Did you hear that? This time, the Oiran Yan Selection, the Oiran Lu Xiaochai girl did not participate! ”
"Huh? If she doesn't participate, then who else is there in Huancailou? ”
"Naturally, it's the Xiangyun girl who became famous a few days ago!"
"Xiangyun? She seems to be far from Lu Xiaochai! I'm afraid it's difficult to pose a threat to Liu Yanyan and Liang Wan'er! ”
"What do you know? I heard that there is a famous rich and noble son in the capital, and he has already picked the flower branches of the Xiangyun girl yesterday......"
"It's broken! It's three o'clock in the unitary hour, and I still have to pick the flower branches of Yang Qingqing in the Liuzakura Pavilion! Leave! ”
"Ahh I'm going to try my luck too......"
The scholars next to each other seemed to be talking and forgetting the time, and they went out together in a panic at this moment.
Chen Xian has heard almost all these topics when he walks in the streets and alleys in the past few days, and he only feels that his ears are about to grind out calluses, after all, as long as it is a mention, almost everyone has to mention how the last Oiran Lu Xiaochai is, and there are more well-informed people who can also tell his name Chen Xingzhi, as well as the article "I am a melancholy guest in the world" he made.
"Whoa-" The wooden door that had just been brought by Xiao Er was suddenly rudely pushed open, and the cold wind suddenly poured into the house, making people feel cold.
"It's really annoying to me! After squancing for three days, no one threw the flower ball to me Sun Xiaosong, don't say that the head of the small building in the countryside is the head of the four green buildings, but so, they are all people with eyes and no beads! The scholar who wore a patched short jacket walked in scolding, he found a stool to sit on at random, patted a few copper plates, and opened his mouth to shout: "Little Er, the old rules!" ”
This scholar was quite impolite, and after pushing the door in, he didn't even know how to bring the door with him, and he was wearing a patched and torn jacket, and he even said that the top cards of the four famous buildings of the people were eyeless!
Xiao Er in the store walked over and closed the door, blocking the whirring cold wind outside, and then walked to the side of the big customer Chen Xian with a smile, and said apologetically: "Childe, this guy is so unreasonable, people say he is crazy!" ”
"Oh?" Chen Xianzheng was bored, so he raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "Let's hear it." ”
"This Sun Xiaosong is also a bit talented, and he also took the exam to show his talent!" Xiao Er peeked at the people over there, and then lowered his voice and said, "Suddenly one day I went crazy and said that the earth under our feet is round!" It is also said that it is mentioned in "Chu Ci"! ”
"Hmm." Chen Xian chuckled and nodded, in this era, everyone regards "the sky is round and the earth is flat, and the Central Plains is in the middle" as the most reasoned, even Fujian and Yunnan are called barbarians, this Sun Xiaosong can jump out of this kind of thinking shackles and explore the truth independently, no wonder others think he is crazy.
Seeing that Chen Xian was interested, the shopkeeper smiled happily and said: "This guy also made a wing with wood and feathers to tie it to his body last year, and jumped down from the top of Ziyang Mountain. Later, after lying in bed for two months, he became even more crazy, and this guy actually looked at the steaming iron kettle and said that water vapor can replace manpower! Childe, do you think he's crazy......"
Lose your marbles? Isn't this the Da Vinci of the Ming Dynasty? Wingsuit flying? Even the steam engine came up with it?
Chen Xian was stunned for a while, and he couldn't listen to the follow-up words of the shopkeeper, he looked sideways at this rude and shabby-looking scholar.
The scholar, Sun Xiaosong, is now enjoying his old rules: a bowl of Yangchun noodles, a stack of fried soybeans, and a small pot of sake.
He stretched out his dirty fingers and pinched the edge of the bowl to pull Yangchun noodles in front of him, took a big sip, then stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the soybeans, took a sip of wine, and even smacked his mouth.
As if sensing that someone was looking at him, Sun Xiaosong looked up, and after Chen Xian's gaze met in the air, he glared at him and said viciously: "What are you looking at?" ”
"How unreasonable are you!" Where was Xiao Liang willing to let this crazy scholar bully Chen Xian at will, and immediately fought back with a small eye: "Talking so presumptuously, the sage books have been read in vain!" ”
"Huh!" Sun Xiaosong was stunned by what the sharp-toothed little fence said, and then he threw his chopsticks towards the bowl, frowned at Chen Xian and said, "I don't talk to you, a red-mouthed and white-toothed maid!" Isn't your master a mouthful? ”
"Flutter." Chen Xian smiled and stood up.
The shopkeeper was startled, thinking that Chen Xian was going to make a move, so he hurriedly came to Chen Xian's side and said in a panic: "Childe, childe, you are a big customer of our store, can't you do it in the store!" ”
What he said clearly meant was ...... Sun Xiaosong has been "hands-on" a lot, son, if you want to do it, then pull him out and beat him again!
