Chapter 208: Suzhou

"Brother, the ship is about to stop in port." Xue Fei was closing his eyes on the bed to recuperate, and the person who said this was the person in the same cabin as himself, after Xue Fei was woken up by this person, Xue Fei said to him: "Thank you!" Then Xue Fei took his things and walked to the deck to wait for the ship to stop in port.

"Braised fish noodles, old soup stewed fish noodles!" Xue Fei was on the deck and heard the cries of the vendors on the dock.

"It's stopped! Let's all go down! The boatman on the boat asked the people on the boat to start disembarking, Xue Fei walked at the back, Xue Fei got off the boat and looked at the scene on the dock, he watched the merchants who came by boat take the carriage and left.

Xue Fei watched the big man carry a sack on his back to earn that little bit of hard-earned money for his livelihood, and he saw the small vendor braving the cold wind on the dock to sell, Xue Fei walked to a small food stall selling hot noodle soup.

Xue Fei looked at the snack stall and said to the boss: "The boss brought me a small bowl of hot noodle soup, put a little chili pepper in it, and put some vinegar in it!" ”

The owner of the snack stall saw that Xue Fei was dressed in general, but he was dressed very cleanly, he pointed to the table and stool he had set up and said, "Little brother, sit in my place!" That's it! ”

Xue Fei sat on a stool waiting for the arrival of hot noodle soup, in Xue Fei's memory, Suzhou was a place he longed for, because every time he went home when he was a child, Lin Huiwei would tell him about Suzhou, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, in his bedtime story.

In the previous life of Xue Fei's life, Suzhou was already a completely commercial city, and in that era, Suzhou was not as quiet and peaceful as Lin Huiwei portrayed, but gave people the feeling of impetuousness.

Xue Fei was looking at the scene on the dock, the vendor served the noodles to Xue Fei, Xue Fei looked at the washed white sleeves and apron and a pair of clean hands, Xue Fei looked at the hot noodle soup that the stall owner brought up, Xue Fei picked up the chopsticks in the tray and said with a smile to the boss: "Thank you!" ”

The boss asked Xue Fei to continue eating, and he continued to be busy with his business, after Xue Fei finished eating, he wiped his mouth with the most worthless cotton cloth, and then he drank all the soup of hot noodle soup, and Xue Fei finished eating and then went to the place where there was a hired carriage.

Xue Fei looked at the carriage driver and asked, "Go to Yueting Zhai in the east of the city!" ”

The carriage driver looked at Xue Fei's dress, he didn't speak, he said to Xue Fei, "Go in!" ”

After Xue Fei got into the carriage, the carriage began to drive towards the west of the city, an hour later Yue Tingge arrived, Xue Fei was almost asleep sitting in the carriage, Xue Fei opened the door curtain and looked at the plaque of Yue Tingge, he said to the carriage and carriage: "How much?" ”

Coachman: "A tael of silver." ”

Xue Fei looked at the sky-high price of the carriage driver, he didn't say anything, he could only take out the money and give it to him, the coachman took the money and drove away without speaking, Xue Fei stood on the ground alone and looked at Yue Tingge, he stepped forward and began to knock on the door.

"Buckle button!" Xue Fei knocked on the copper ring on the door, and the special sound made by the copper ring hitting the wooden gate penetrated the door guard's ears.

The doorman walked out of the room where he was, he opened the door, he looked at Xue Fei and said, "Who are you looking for?" ”

Xue Fei was holding a package in his hand, wearing a robe made of ordinary embroidered cloth, and he tied his hair with an ordinary hair crown.

Xue Fei: "I'm looking for Lin Mingyu!" ”

The doorman looked at Xue Fei with a poor and sour look, but he didn't say anything, he said to Xue Fei: "Our master has gone out to run errands these days, if you have something, I can tell our master when the master comes back." ”

Xue Fei knew that it was the doorman who refused to go in by himself, and he said to the doorman: "Since Master Lin is not at home, then I will take my leave," but when you came back, tell him that the son of the Xue family in the capital is visiting, and he knows that the master is not in Suzhou, so he will leave. Thank you, then I'll go. After speaking, Xue Fei left Yueting Pavilion.

Xue Fei walked slowly on the street, anyway, he has time now, the reason why he said this just now is that he knows that the doorman will not tell Lin Mingyu his message, because he didn't give him money.

Xue Fei settled in a small inn, Xue Fei opened a first-class room, Xue Fei opened the window, he looked out the window at the gurgling water and the willow branches blown by the cold wind.

Xue Fei felt that it was really good at this moment, there was no war at this moment, there were no battles in the court at this moment, there was no shackles of rights, there were no trivial matters to deal with by himself, Xue Fei just had to look at the scenery quietly.

Xue Fei had seen enough of the scenery, he walked out of the inn and started to play on the street, Xue Fei came to a teahouse, the teahouse was really singing Kunqu opera, Xue Fei sat in the back of the teahouse and listened to the play.

"Guest, do you want tea?" As soon as Xue Fei sat down in the teahouse, the shopkeeper came over to ask Xue Fei, Xue Fei looked at the person who was singing in front of him and said, "Just have a pot of ordinary green tea!" ”

The shopkeeper continued to ask: "Do you want another plate of melon and fruit pastries?" ”

Xue Fei shook his head: "No need, a pot of tea is enough!" Then Xue Fei listened to the opera, to be honest, Xue Fei really listened to the opera in the capital quite little, because the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty did not allow the emperor and the princess to listen to the opera, so only on special festivals, Xue Fei could hear the opera, so he now looks at Kunqu Opera is particularly fresh, not to mention the opera of another time and space.

Xue Fei drank the tea from the shopkeeper, he looked at the people above, Xue Fei asked the person sitting next to him and said, "Who is singing above?" ”

The person who came to listen to the play with Xue Fei next to him said: "This is Miss Su Yusu, and the Du Siniang she sang is the most moving!" ”

Xue Fei listened to this, he looked at Su Yu who was singing on stage, and he continued to ask this person: "I heard Brother Tai say this, Miss Su sings so well, why don't you go to the troupe to sing?" ”

The man shook his head and looked at Su Yu and said to Xue Fei, "You don't know this!" Miss Su is now a free body, she can sing wherever she wants, the reason why she is here today is because of this teahouse, because she sang here when she was not famous before, this is not that she has been singing here for the past few days. ”

Xue Fei: "Then why didn't a few people come to listen to her play?" ”

The man: "Because there is a big gathering at the City God Temple these days, everyone goes to the City God Temple to play, and few people come here to listen to the play!" ”。

Xue Fei suddenly realized, he continued to listen to the play, he felt that it was not interesting after listening for a while, Xue Fei began to observe the environment in the teahouse, to be honest, Xue Fei didn't think the teahouse was so good, but the layout was not bad, in Xue Fei's opinion, it was really not as good as the stage in the palace, but after all, it was a folk.

"Childe, you've been watching it for a long time, I don't know what you're looking at?"
