Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Although Ouyang He felt that some of the old men Guan were a little out of tune to ask questions with the posture of elders, he still patiently answered some situations such as his hometown, family background, relatives and friends. Just as Ouyang and Zhiwu were speaking, suddenly a burst of laughter like silver bells came from outside the hall, and after a while, I saw a girl dressed in gorgeous clothes rushing in like a milk swallow through the forest, and only rushed straight into the arms of Master Guan on the master's seat.
"Daddy is so bad, he sneaked out to drink alone, and he didn't take me with him, I want to sue my mother
The coquettish girl suddenly saw that there was an outsider sitting in the hall, and her face suddenly lost a little, but when she saw the appearance of the guest clearly, she suddenly shouted: "Why are you sitting here, you thief." ”
"How did Jin Niang speak, this is a guest." Zheng Kezhang snorted, and then said to Ouyang Heyan. "The little girl is rude, Lord Ouyang, forgive me."
"That's it, that's it." The girl shook Zheng Kezang's arm unrelentingly. "Last time my sister and I went to Longhua Temple, he rushed in with a ghostly head, if it wasn't for his daughter's early appearance, who knows what bad things he would dare to do as a disciple."
As soon as he said this, Zheng Kezang's face looked at Ouyang He, and Ouyang He, who was in great embarrassment, hurriedly stood up and said to Zheng Kezhang and Jin Niang: "Master Guan, it was really an accident last time, and I have apologized many times, but Ling Ai doesn't want to listen to the explanation, it's really wronged!" ”
"Jin Niang, I think Lord Ouyang is a talent, but he is a gentleman who keeps manners, but I'm afraid that you and your sister made a mistake." Zheng Kezhang patted Jin Niang's hand dotingly. "Besides, the girl's family, what is the left sentence of a thief and the right sentence like a disciple, if you don't retreat first, Daddy will invite Lord Ouyang to drink."
"Humph!" Jin Niang snorted at Ouyang He with a tiger face. "I can't see that you're still an official, a few grades, what are you doing."
"It's just a promotion from the Seventh Rank Internal Affairs Department." Ouyang He responded with a smile and a smile, although he was promoted to a higher rank, his position had not changed. "Master Mengguan mistakenly likes to call him an adult, but in fact, he is a small official, not an official. (Just read the novel.)"
Jin Niang replied angrily: "You are also a little self-aware. ”
"Okay, Jin Niang," Zheng Kezhang finally put on the prestige of his parents. "It's enough trouble, don't go back, what kind of body does a girl become crazy."
As soon as Jin Niang ate Zheng Kezang's scolding, tears came out, she turned around and ran, Zheng Kezhang didn't chase after her, but just said to Ouyang Heyan: "It's also that I doted on them too much, so that Lord Ouyang was wronged." ”
Ouyang He, who didn't know that Jin Niang had turned into tears and laughed after leaving the hall, only felt extremely embarrassed, so he hurriedly proposed to say goodbye, but Zheng Kezang's play here had not finished and how could he let him out, so he tried every means to keep him, Ouyang He couldn't refuse, so he had to follow Zheng Kezang to the restaurant on the side.
Although this mansion is only used as a stage for today's play, because one of the protagonists is Zheng Kezhang himself and several county lords, the regulations are far grander than ordinary houses, even the dining hall - this pavilion in the middle of the lotus pond looks divided into three rooms on the outside, but the interior is completely open, separated by a few columns, and it looks very large.
There is a banquet at the east end of the water pavilion, but it is not according to the usual round table regulations in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but the Song people's division of the case and food.
There is a screen on one side of the two right-angled food tables, and there are faintly a few musicians serving behind the screen, but this is not the end, when the two of them sit down and the slave maid serves the food, Ouyang He actually used the eunuch of this old man.
Well, it's not a big deal to be a eunuch, it's not out of place for a rich family to use a few private confessions, but the water pavilion is as warm as spring, and obviously there is a brazier all around, but there is no smoke around, obviously this is the best fine charcoal.
It's just that the refined charcoal is not finished, and the dozen or so dishes on the food table are nothing, but what are those long-sleeved fluttering? Dancer! It's so luxurious, and there are songs and dances to accompany a meal. Is this the grandeur of a wealthy merchant and a proud prince? It's just that Ouyang He, who was born as the owner of a mere pharmacy, can't imagine it.
When Ouyang He looked at this qiē in shock, Zheng Kezhang was also looking at his reaction. [shuhaige dot netbsp;] Speaking of which, Zheng Kezang's daily life is not so extravagant. There are only four dishes and one soup for lunch on weekdays, and when I sit with my wives and concubines at night, there are only a few more dishes, and when I am in the army, I even have just one more meat dish than ordinary sergeants.
As for the music and dance of this era, Southern Opera and Kunqu Opera, Zheng Kezhang doesn't like it even more, but a few wives and concubines and daughters usually have nothing to entertain, and a few musicians are seconded out of the Shao music team of the Zhengdan Ceremony.
Soon, Zheng Kezhang smiled with satisfaction, although Ouyang He in front of him was shocked by Yiqiē, but he did not write **naked envy on his face like the few neighbors who were specially invited to pave the way for today's play, and a pair of clear eyes did not stay on the uneven curves of the dancing girl for too long, but tilted his head slightly as if listening to the music behind the scenes.
"Come, come," Zheng Kezhang raised his glass. "Lord Ouyang is full of drinks." Ouyang He was invited, and drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, Zheng Kezhang laughed and ordered the waiter to fill it. "Lord Ouyang, a good amount of alcohol."
The so-called wine color is the medium, a few sips of wine to drink, a few mouthfuls of food to eat, the atmosphere gradually became hot, at this time Zheng Kezhang asked: "Lord Ouyang is proficient in music?" How about these musicians under it. ”
"I'm ashamed to say that I am proficient in music." Ouyang He replied with a smile. "But I can hear that the musicians in your house are all masters."
"What about Lord Ouyang?" Zheng Kezhang asked. "Can you show your hand?"
"Don't dare, don't dare." Ouyang He hurriedly waved his hand. "How dare you get an axe in the next class, I'm afraid that I will stain Master Guan's ears!"
"Alas, how do you say this, before I tried it, how do I know that it must have stained my ears." Zheng Kezhang didn't let Ouyang and pass the door. "Could it be that Lord Ouyang has his own elegant voice, and he disdains to perform it in a businessman like me."
As soon as Zheng Kezhang said this, Ouyang He had to stand up and apologize, and then under the persecution of Zheng Kezang intentionally or unintentionally, he chose a transverse flute and played it faintly.
Zheng Kezhang didn't know what he was playing, but someone behind the scenes gently reported the name of the song: "It's the Guigui Order, which is commonly used in Kunqu Opera." ”
After the song was played, Zheng Kezhang applauded gently, and Ouyang He was about to say that he was not good at blowing, so he listened to Zheng Kezang's words: "Lord Ouyang is a person from Jiangnan, and he must be very familiar with Kunqu Opera. ”
Different from the imagination of later generations, "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" was originally a flute song, and the Ming Dynasty's "Boya Heart Method" said that "Huan Yi came out of the flute to blow the tune of the plum blossoms of the three alleys, which is exquisite, and the descendants entered the piano" This traces back to the origin.
However, the song of "Three Alleys of Plum Blossoms" is divided into three sections, one tone is clearer than one tone, and the guqin may not be able to express xiàn well, and the flute is even more difficult. For this reason, Ouyang He made it clear that he might not be able to blow it well, but because Zheng Kezhang insisted, he had to give it a try.
So the flute sound was melodious, but soon it was a little unconnected, and it happened that the harmony of the guqin came from behind the scenes, and the flute was magically brought up, and Ouyang He barely let Ouyang He finish the whole song.
"Good!" Zheng Kezhang cheered. "Great, come on, change the food."
The little waiter, who was regarded as a private confession by Ouyang He, came over to change the dishes that were already a little cold, and took the opportunity to re-serve the dishes, Zheng Kezhang asked, "What other musical instruments does Lord Ouyang have besides the flute?" ”
Ouyang Helian, who was frightened by Zheng Kezang, said no, but Zheng Kezhang asked reluctantly: "What about calligraphy and painting?" ”
Ouyang Heyue felt that it was strange, so he repeatedly said: "When I was young, I was urged by my father to study medicine, and I read a lot of medical books and sage texts, but I didn't have a chance to dabble in this calligraphy and painting, and as for the flute, I also learned it from my neighbors, and the rest of the musical instruments have less contact." ”
Zheng Kezhang skimmed it with some regret, and didn't say more, and then the cups were staggered, but he persuaded Ouyang He to drink a lot, and finally Ouyang He was drunk and sent back by Zheng Kezang's guards.
When Ouyang He left the water pavilion, Zheng Kezhang immediately ordered the musicians and dancers to retreat, leaving only one person to walk out from behind the screen: "How is it, do you think this person is okay?" ”
What responded to Zheng Kezhang was a shy face, to which Zheng Kezhang laughed: "If you are tempted, then it will be easy to do, but this person is not confused, and I don't know if he is pure and good-natured, or he is forbearing, so wait a few more days." ”
"Daddy, how can you talk about your daughter like that." Jia Niang, whose face was flushed with shame, beat Zheng Kezhang with her fist. "What's the urgency of my daughter, my daughter still wants to serve in front of her father and mother for the rest of her life!"
Zheng Kezhang hadn't spoken yet, and Jin Niang, who had just performed a little pepper temper, rushed in like a whirlwind: "Second sister, if you don't like it, sue me, sue me, if you don't like it, I'll go and smash his house, I will be angry when I see his two-colored eyes." ”
"Don't!"
Jia Niang subconsciously replied, and then realized that she had said the wrong thing, but it was irreparable, only to see Jin Niang laughing like a little fox who had stolen a chicken, and suddenly Jia Niang was so angry that she rushed up to scratch her sister's armpit.
"Look at your sister's laughter, look at your sister's words!"
The two girls laughed, and Zheng Kezhang also had a smile on his face, but this was only in front of his family, and after returning to the Xia Wangfu, Zheng Kezang's face was stern and he summoned the chamberlain who had appeared in front of Ouyang He as the steward of the Guan Mansion.
"Immediately find a middle-looking person among the palace people and send it to Ouyang He, just say that Master Guan knows that there is no foot warmer around him, and he specially gave it to him, and the right is used as a reward for today's song, please don't shirk it."
"Yes, slave and maid will do it." The chamberlain just wanted to turn his head, when something suddenly came to mind. "Your Majesty, what if this person shirks?"
"Then you arrange someone to pull him to **, see if he can do it, if the county lord marries and stays alive, he will kill you alive."
The cold words made the waiter feel excited, and before he could express his determination, Zheng Kezhang said again: "Remember to arrange a virgin for him, if you get sick, you will die yourself." ”
"Yes!"
