Geng Jingzhong smiled slightly, and said: "The beautiful land in the south of the Yangtze River, the imperial state of Jinling, the cultural relics of Kyoto since ancient times are flourishing in the south of the Yangtze River, the literary style is in the sea, and the scholars with outstanding literary talents are like carp crossing the river, how dare they dare to be delusional?" However, I think that Brother Wang and Brother Yan can give it a try! β
I heard that Governor Geng implemented 'basic education' in Fujian many years ago, so that hundreds of thousands of young children in Fujian are proud to read and write, and the work of education, my generation of scholars is very admired. It can be seen that Fujian's literary style will be prosperous, and Brother Geng should not be too modest! Yan Ping said with a smile on the side, after Pu Yi finished speaking, he looked left and right again, and continued: "The guest has arrived, why don't you see the beautiful woman come out for a long time?" β
"Don't you come out after a thousand calls?" Wang Yanzhi chuckled and said, "Brother Ziyu, don't worry, wait for a while, and the beauty will come out to meet the guests." β
For Qin Huai's famous prostitutes, Geng Jingzhong naturally admired them in his heart, Qin Huai Simei, Qin Huai Bayan, Jinling Twelve, he can be said to be like thunder, but that was decades ago, this year's Qin Huai beauties, but I don't know if there are any famous, thinking of this, he asked casually: "I don't know Qin Huai beauties, who else are famous?" β
"Brother Geng's words can be regarded as asking the right person." Sun Shao said with a smile: "Shidanai is the king of the fireworks village, the leader of the alliance at the Mandarin Duck Meeting, Qin Huai Jiali, he knows everything about it." β
"Zitan, this is praising me?" Yan Ping pretended to glare at him, and then said with a smile: "Qin Huai Jiali, the first to recommend Ji Xiaoxiao." Magnificent. Grace is free. Twenty years ago, Ji Xiaoxiao was only ten years old, but he was appreciated by Hou Fangyu, one of the four sons at that time, and became famous, but now he is suspected of old age and decrepitude, followed by Zhao Lizhen, who has a beautiful complexion, is convenient to deal with, and is good at embellishing small words. As a heroic man, Jiangnan celebrities flock to it, and Tian Miaomiao, elegant and quiet, good Danqing, and Wang Ruonan, generous and super-easy, women do not let the eyebrows, often carry a bow and fly outside the city, good Hanmo. And then there is the poppy beauty of today. β
Wang Yanzhi said with a smile: "Brother Ziyu has still missed one person, a rookie in the song." Li Yuzhu, it is said that the color is extremely gorgeous, the smallest bound feet, but very good at dancing, I heard that she is fifteen years old, and she has not yet combed it, but unfortunately she has no chance to see it. β
Geng Jingzhong knew that combing was the meaning of opening buds and breaking melons, listening to the meaning of this, sixteen had not yet been combed, and it seemed to be very late, so he immediately said: "Qin Huai beauty is generally combed, when is the best?" β
Sun Shaohan said with a smile: "It's no different from a folk woman going out of the pavilion, the girls in the Kyoto Fengyue Field are generally able to come forward at the age of thirteen to meet guests, but after all, fourteen years old is too tender, called 'trying flowers', fifteen years old is the right time, it is called 'flowering', and sixteen years old is already a little outdated, called 'picking flowers'." After speaking, he couldn't help but glance at Geng Jingzhong, and secretly wondered, is this person interested in this Li Yuzhu who has not yet been combed?
Seeing this situation, Geng Jingzhong knew that the main man was about to appear, and sure enough, as soon as the wine and food were arranged, he heard the sound of the stairs, and a group of maids and stars hugged a beauty like the moon and turned out. Everyone got up to greet each other, Geng Jingzhong also stood up according to the customs, but after a little look, this poppy beauty is indeed fresh and moving, not only the eyebrows are picturesque, but also the skin is white and greasy, the facial features are exquisite, as carefully carved, but the dress is a very ordinary upper and lower skirt, the upper white clothes are better than snow, the lower skirt is faint lotus, and the only bright color is a light pink shawl on the shoulder.
The whole person is elegant and simple, fresh and natural, without the slightest flattery, and because of his tall figure, the miscellaneous group of girls is particularly eye-catching. Seeing everyone get up, Zhou Yuren squatted down and said softly: "The slave family Yu Mei, I have seen a few sons. β
"Poppies don't need to be polite." Sun Shao smiled.
Zhou Yuren glanced at everyone and said with a slight smile: "Sons, please sit down at the table, and the slave family will play a song to accompany the wine for your sons." As he spoke, he moved the lotus step lightly and sat cross-legged on the piano seat that had been arranged, everyone was used to fighting in the Fengyue field, and when they saw this situation, they went straight to the table and sat down.
Sun Shao raised his glass and said: "I can get acquainted with Brother Geng today, and I have two best friends by my side, and the younger brother will give a cup to a few brothers first." After speaking, he drank it all, at the beginning, the cup came and went, and the atmosphere on the table immediately became lively, and the wine was over three rounds, and the dish was over five flavors, and the sound of the sermon rang out in due course, and everyone stopped drinking and listening.
Geng Jingzhong didn't understand the rhythm, and he didn't know what kind of song she played, but Jue Se's voice was melodious and tactful, soft and smooth, two words, good, after the song was played, everyone applauded, and he also echoed.
After Zhou Yuren got up to thank him, he moved into the seat, Sun Shao intended to match, and hurriedly got up and put the chair next to Geng Jingzhong. As he spoke, he took a sip of the wine.
Everyone raised their glasses one after another, with the addition of Zhou Yuren, the atmosphere on the table immediately became warm, everyone chatted while drinking, most of them were literati anecdotes, Geng Jingzhong knew very little about this, naturally he rarely spoke, and echoed a sentence or two from time to time, and because he was worried about the wine orders on the table that gave him a headache, he had to frequently persuade him to drink, generally the southern scholars did not drink enough, this Rausch hibiscus liquid wine, it was too light for him, and they were drunk and drunk, so it was much easier.
Looking at this situation in Sun Shao's eyes, he couldn't help but secretly wonder, isn't this Geng Jingzhong interested in poppy beauty? It took a full four hundred taels of silver to move, so did it go down the drain? What kind of woman does this newly acquainted Brother Geng like? As for Geng Jingzhong's situation, he knocked on the side along the way, except for knowing that this Geng brother was from Fuzhou, and that he followed the Mawei Army to Jiangnan to prepare to accept the affairs of the Fujian offshore fleet, which was extremely famous in Jiangnan before, but the others did not get a useful tone. However, knowing that these are enough, befriending Geng Jingzhong will definitely be of great help to his family's business. And along the way, seeing that Geng Jingzhong is very interested in this Qinhuai River, so lustful is for sure, otherwise he would not spend a lot of money to invite Yu Meiren, thinking of Geng Jingzhong's question about combing, he couldn't help but move in his heart, is this guy really interested in Li Yuzhu who has not been combed?
After thinking about it for a while, he found an excuse to leave the table and come to the courtyard, since he wanted to make good friends with others, then it must be done to his liking. Therefore, in order to get a share of the business of the Fujian offshore fleet, it is necessary to seize the opportunity tonight to let Geng Jingzhong fall into the gentle township of Qinhuai Fengyue, which is the fastest and most direct way to get closer to him. This fleet, the fleet of the Mawei Army can be handed over to him, the relationship must be ironclad, if this Geng brother is brilliant, it will definitely make a group of Qin Huai beauties excited, at that time, whether it is a guest of the curtain or combing, there will be a chance to give favors, and then spend a sum of money to help him redeem people, not afraid that he will not receive this great favor.
When he came to the courtyard, Sun Shao summoned the servants waiting at the door and ordered: "Go to Mother Zhou and tell her that Li Yuzhu will be invited quickly regardless of any method, there are distinguished guests from Fuzhou on the table, and there are poppies present, and she can't be insulted, and the matter of silver is easy to say." β
"Yes, the little one will go right away." The servant bowed to himself.
"Wait." Sun Shao groaned slightly, and then said, "Isn't Li Yuzhu still combed yet?" Sue sΓΉ Zhou's mother, this is a rare opportunity, the main son is not only young and handsome, talented, and brilliant, but also has no shortage of silver. β
"Yes." The servant answered, and went away.
Geng Jingzhong frequently persuaded to drink, a table of people except Zhou Yu people are secretly complaining, the beauty is on the side, smiling skillfully, beautiful eyes, this guy keeps persuading wine, it is really incomprehensible, the scenery is ruined, Yan Ping and Wang Yanzhi will not refute his face, they have to raise their glasses frequently, and they have to exchange courtesies.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Yu people are happy, they have always persuaded to drink, and it is their duty to enliven the atmosphere of the wine table. As she spoke, she drank it all, put down the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Those who have always been good drinkers can poetry, and Geng Gongzi is as good as the rivers and seas, and he must be eight buckets high." β
Hearing this, Geng Jingzhong couldn't help but laugh, this girl didn't think the atmosphere was warm enough, and even used the agitation method to stimulate them, and immediately smiled slightly: "Those who can poetry must be good wine, but those who are good at wine may not be able to poetry, just as those who are amorous must be lustful, and those who are lustful may not be all amorous." β
"That's a wonderful statement." Yan Ping immediately smiled and said: "If you can say this, it can be seen that Brother Geng is an amorous man." β
"Since ancient times, amorous and empty hate, amorous has always been ruthlessly hurt, and amorous is not necessarily a good thing." Geng Jingzhong said casually. This sentence is a synthesis of two poems, "amorous and empty hatred since ancient times", in fact, an anonymous poem written by Shi Qingxi, a literati of the Qing Dynasty. For: Affectionate since ancient times, empty hatred, good dreams are the easiest to wake up. In addition, there are full poems in the novel "Flower Moon Traces" by Wei Zi'an of the Qing Dynasty, which is: amorous hatred since ancient times, and good dreams are the easiest to wake up. It's hard to get rid of the flowers, and the poor flying flakes are too floating. The incense nest is first married to the Mandarin Duck Society, and the new sentence is like a jade screen. It's not that the intestines are broken, and the tear stains are full of old clothes. Geng Jingzhong can't remember these poems, but he remembers one or two famous sentences in them, and he said them casually.
Since ancient times, amorous and empty hate, amorous is always ruthlessly hurt, all the people at the table are stunned, and they are secretly savoring, Zhou Yuren has already asked: "Is ruthless better than amorous?" β
"People are not plants and trees, how can they be ruthless?" Geng Jingzhong shook his head slightly, and said: "Don't you hear it, when the love is exhausted, it turns ruthless, and ruthlessness is more tiring than being affectionate." This sentence was still written by Wei Zi'an, and Geng Jingzhong practiced it.
Hearing this, Wang Yanzhi blurted out: "A good poem written by Brother Geng!" β
