Chapter Seventy-Two: A Boy
Ye Heng really didn't know any Du Niangzi, and later after Li Xin's introduction, he learned that this Du Niangzi was the head of the first painting boat in Qinhuai River, and the name of this painting boat was called 'Wanqing', and the name was also elegant.
Because it was still early, the three of them walked slowly, chatting along the way.
Li Xin introduced the origin of this graceful painting boat to Ye Heng, and asked: "Our Xie Yuan, do you know the characters that Jiang Ning produced back then?" ”
Ye Heng thought for a moment, and then asked rhetorically: "Brother Li, you asked, but Wang Xie?" ”
Wang Xie refers to Wang Dao and Xie An in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, both of whom are history, among which the Wang family also went abroad to a famous calligrapher, Wang Xizhi!
In Jiangning, or the southeast, when it comes to the famous families of the scholars, these two families naturally cannot be avoided.
Li Xin nodded, and then said: "Yes, the person I want to talk about is indeed from the Wang Xie family, and he is also a talented woman!" ”
Ye Heng asked, "But what about Xie Daoyun?" ”
"Hmm!"
Li Xin said: "It seems that Brother Ye knows this talented woman, but some legends about her, Brother Ye is afraid that he doesn't know!" ”
Liu He smiled beside him: "Isn't it the word 'graceful' mentioned by Xie Daoyun himself?" Brother Li is deliberately showing off in front of Brother Ye, right? However, judging from the following, whether this legend is true or not remains to be verified......"
"But this graceful painting boat is parked in front of the mountain gate where Xie Daoyun lived back then, and this has been a matter for hundreds of years!" Li Xin looked at Liu He and asked, "You can't deny this, right?" ”
Ye Heng laughed beside him and said, "Whether the legend is true or not, it's all in the past, do you two want to quarrel over this legend?" ”
Li Xin and Liu He are very strange, first of all, their friendship is not bad, it should be said that they are very good friends, but the two of them have great differences in life and personality style, and they often quarrel because of some inexplicable and wonderful things. The last time they were at the Splendid Inn, they were arguing over 'Cone Thorn Bone' and 'Cone Thorn Stock', one saying it was a bone and the other was a fart. shares, which made Ye Heng really speechless for a while.
With Ye Heng's reconciliation, the two no longer argued.
When they arrived at the painting boat, the three of them found a box, it was noon, and there were not many people who came to the Qinglou at this time, so the painting boat was also quiet.
"Listen to me!" Li Xin took advantage of the fact that there was no one else in the box, and said to Ye Heng and Liu He: "Wait a minute, if you want to see Du Niangzi, you have to listen to my ......"
Ye Heng asked with a smile: "Then what if you don't want to see this Du Niangzi?" ”
Li Xin's face darkened, and Liu He next to him said, "Okay, it's all up to you...... Hehe, Brother Ye won't be so disappointed, right? ”
"That's it!" Li Xin nodded, this time his and Liu He's opinions were very unanimous!
After a while, the wine and food were served, and the two women were entertaining on the side, and the proprietress of the painting boat asked with a smile: "Three sons, do you need to listen to the music and accompany you?" ”
"Need is need ......"
Li Xin smiled, then looked at Ye Heng and said, "It's just that the three of us are bored today, so we want to ask Du Niangzi to help us, I don't know if Du Niangzi is free now?" ”
The proprietress frowned, as the head of the line, Du Niangzi is naturally valuable, and it is impossible to accompany everyone casually, right? If she accompanies anyone regardless of the three religions and nine streams, then in this way, wouldn't it devalue her worth?
So the proprietress asked with a smile: "Looking at the dress of the three sons, they should all be scholars and talents, right?" I was upset, but because of the Gongyuan today's list? ”
"Not bad!" Li Xin almost couldn't help laughing, where was he bored? It's all pretended, just to find an excuse to let Du Niangzi accompany her, Li Xin looked at the proprietress with a sad face, and sighed: "Alas! Don't mention it, anyway, there are ten things that are unsatisfactory in life**......"
"This guy ......"
Ye Heng shook his head, but he and Liu He both consciously did not dismantle Li Xintai, but whispered in Liu He's ear: "Brother Li is too good at cheating, right?" ”
Liu He was obviously also a little dissatisfied with Li Xin's deliberate pretending to be down, so he replied in a low voice: "He is like this, in fact, in my opinion, let's show your identity, and I am worried that I won't be able to see Nadu Niangzi?" ”
It's hard to see for the first time in this year, but if the three talented people who have just ranked before the township exam, the first and second places are here, I believe it shouldn't be difficult to see this Du Niangzi.
But Ye Heng shook his head and said to Liu He: "Is this still not good?" It's too ostentatious! ”
"That's right!"
Liu He agreed with Ye Heng's opinion, so he said, "Then we will see Brother Li's ability." ”
Over there, Li Xin had already said that the proprietress had moved, only to see the proprietress nod, and then she withdrew from the private room with a smile.
Ye Heng asked, "Brother Li, how did you talk to her?" ”
Li Xin smiled and said, "What else can you say?" Just gave her a price, okay! Let's eat first, and Du Niangzi will be here in a while! ”
"I don't know what a wonderful person he is, but he actually makes Jiangning Township try second and eighth so respected!" Ye Heng laughed.
"Naturally, it can't compare to Su Qing'er......"
Li Xin made a joke, then raised his wine glass and said, "Don't talk about this, Brother Liu, let's first toast Brother Ye's Xie Yuan cup!" Congratulations to Brother Ye for being awarded Xie Yuan today! ”
Liu He also raised his wine glass and said: "Look at the gold powder of the Six Dynasties, and laugh at 100,000 people!" Brother Ye can be said to be extremely beautiful today, this glass of wine should be toasted! ”
Ye Heng was embarrassed, and said with a smile: "What is 'smiling and proud of 100,000 families'?" I'm embarrassed to say it, come on! Cheers, we'll be the same year in the future, let's say okay first, don't laugh at me like that again! ”
"Same year, same year!" Li Xin smiled, pointed at Liu He and Ye Heng and said, "Classmate, boy, haha......"
Ye Heng and Liu He also laughed, and then both of them raised their wine glasses and drank them all.
The three of them are all young people, and their personalities are also open-minded, and they are not taboo about joking or anything, as the so-called wine is a thousand cups of confidants, after congratulating Ye Heng, Ye Heng and Li Xin raised their glasses to congratulate Liu He, and then it was Ye Heng and Liu He's turn to congratulate Li Xin.
I drank several glasses of this wine, but the person hadn't brought it yet, taking advantage of the strength of the wine, Li Xin slapped the table, then got up and walked out of the private room, and shouted loudly with squinted eyes: "** son, why hasn't this Du Niangzi come yet?" ”
