Chapter 205: It's more like a couple

The difference between the Celestial Empire Tea Room and the Island Country Tea Room is more about the difference in the attitude towards tea that they represent.

The most important tea ceremony in the island country is Sen no Rikyu sauce.

These four words can be very revealing: harmony and respect.

Whether it is the design of the tea room, or the corresponding dry landscape, the tea ceremony, it is a concrete representation of their spiritual world.

And for this spiritual world, it is recommended to refer to two books. "Chrysanthemum and Knife", "Pillow Grass".

Tea was transmitted to the island nation by the Celestial Empire, and was originally the plaything of the ruling class, and gradually penetrated into the people with economic development.

In this process, the people of the island country respect and even worship tea. Because of tea, it gives everyone great spiritual sustenance.

And the tea of the Celestial Empire has not been elevated to the so-called spiritual realm, because it is a drink that is commonly used in people's homes.

Tea is always put last, for example, qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, hops, tea, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea.

Tea is a supplement, a medium, and a bond.

After these two problems are solved, it is time to make a comparison.

The island country tea room is a place that is purely used for tea ceremonies. The size and placement of each tatami mat, the position of the tea table, and the interior decoration are all extremely strict. Therefore, the inheritance of the tea ceremony is completely in accordance with the Master's teachings, and it is carried down exactly the same. The stride, rhythm, and speed of each step into the tea room should be exactly the same, and the tea of the samurai class is a tense struggle between the two people.

When drinking tea, be silent, so that you can show enough attitude.

Therefore, the function of the island country tea room is to drink tea, and it is only for drinking tea.

The design of the Celestial Empire Tea Room is more of a tea-based space function design.

In the traditional culture of the Celestial Empire, the ideas of Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism all had some influence on the design of the tea room.

These tea rooms are mainly used for drinking tea in terms of function, and of course, you can also write, read, play the piano, play incense, and of course, you can also play games and talk nonsense all day long.

The Celestial Empire was more people-oriented in its attitude towards the tea room.

The island tea room has a fixed frame in the design of the idea, following the tea ceremony.

The tea room design of the Celestial Empire is more dexterous, and it pays more attention to the harmony between man and nature, and will also use the way of landscaping to do some scenery into the room.

The small entrance to the tea room is perhaps one of the rarest designs in the history of architecture in the world, and it is a desire to experience selflessness in a hands-on way.

Both the exterior and interior of the tea room strive to express "asymmetrical" beauty, an aesthetic that is the fruit of Zen-related Taoist ideals.

Shingo Harano squeezed through this "entrance" with some difficulty, and his mood was slightly uncomfortable, which was too restrained.

After entering with Ai Fukuhara, I saw Erika Matsushima and Nobita Yamashita wearing kimonos, kneeling on tatami mats, smiling and not knowing what to talk about.

"Shingo is here! Come on, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Nobita noticed the movement at the door, turned his head and exclaimed.

Erika Matsushima had a surprise in her eyes and saw the two people she had been looking forward to for a long time, Shingo Harano and Ai Fukuhara.

I said hello to them and glanced at the scroll painting hanging on the wall of the alcove, on which were written a few large characters that were strong through the back of the paper: Wuyun Changlong.

Seeing Nobita Yamashita trying to kneel at the small square table, his slightly obese body seemed to be a little tired because of his straightening, and he took a sip of tea slowly, and Shingo Harano wanted to laugh a little.

He sat down cross-legged directly, how comfortable and how to come.

Matsushima Erika showed a different color, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and said to him with a smile: "Hasn't Harano-kun been to the teahouse before?" ”

Pulling the hem of his clothes, he raised his head when he heard Matsushima's words, and then Ai Fukuhara, who was beside him, whispered, "Shingo, you should kneel in the tea room." ”

patted the back of Ai Fukuhara's hand, turned his head to look at Yamashita and Matsushima, "It's the first time I've come, I didn't expect there to be such a Zen place, what's wrong, do I have any problems." ”

"Then it's not surprising, Yuanye-kun is just free to do so."

"Why! It's the first time I've been here, but my feet were a little crooked just now, and they were... Yes! ”

Shingo Harano: "What's wrong Nobita?" ”

"No... It's okay, I was scalded by the tea I just drank. Nobita Yamashita had a drop of cold sweat on his head, and his left hand shook under the table as Erika Matsushima grabbed the hand around his waist.

It's been almost two minutes since you didn't drink it? Why is the reflex arc so slow, you are the legendary long nerve reflex crowd.

"Then Yamashita-san, be careful." Ai Fukuhara believed it and said with a smile.

"Hehe... Hehehe. ”

Matsushima Erika pinched the teapot with her index finger, placed her thumb and ring finger on both sides of the tea bowl, her middle finger buckled above the tea lid, the mouth of the bowl was slightly tilted inward, and two small cups were placed in front of her, and the two of them slowly poured tea for the two of them.

"Harano-kun, I heard that you won the Akutagawa Prize..."

"Well, it's me, to be honest, I've heard so many similar questions lately, and it's made my head almost big."

Shingo Harano smiled and answered the question again, speaking with a little helplessness in his voice.

"Is there any money!?"

He nodded and said, "One million plus a pocket watch." ”

"Cut~~"

and its considerable indifference and contempt.

"Shingo, you write lightly.,A month's manuscript fee is a lot more than this.,I've seen the statistics of the number of purchases.。

Nobita Yamashita smashed his mouth, feeling that this Rausch Akutagawa Award is not very good, and people will casually scatter millions of dollars for an essay.

Matsushima Erika looked angry, reached out and knocked Nobita Yamashita on the head, and whispered angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, you don't understand at all!" ”

"Wow~~, but there's not much money..."

"Can honor be measured in money?"

"If you don't have money, you can't even afford to eat, can you..."

"You."

Shingo Harano smiled, a little helpless to Nobita Yamashita, who had more nerves, and said to Erika Matsushima: "Okay, okay, Matsushima-san, Nobita doesn't pay attention to these things, and he doesn't know that he should be." ”

"Hmm." Erika Matsushima stopped the noise and nodded at him.

"Uh-huh, I'm right, isn't there a saying that the ignorant are not guilty, and I should be the same nature as this now."

Erika Matsushima: "I didn't think you knew a lot, huh?" ”

Nobita Yamashita: "No, I'm also very knowledgeable, and there are very few things I don't understand from ancient times to the present." ”

Erika Matsushima: "Then why did you count down in the class on the exam this time?" ”

Nobita Yamashita: "......"

Shingo Harano and Ai Fukuhara glanced at each other, and they both saw the amusement in each other's eyes, but it was really warm.

Perhaps, that's what it means to be a couple, but Shingo Harano and Ai Fukuhara are more like a couple...
