33, Gathering and Celebrating (2)

There was a commotion that brought my mind back to the real world.

Zhang Lili came to my room with two international students.

Mary Liu greeted me first, "Miss Jiang, why are you alone in the room?" ”

I smiled at her and said, "Miss Mary, I just want to take a break, Zhang Lili and I went out very early this morning, and we have been busy for most of the day, and our bodies feel a little tired, so we came here to rest." ”

The butterfly turned at me and said, "Honey, won't I disturb your rest?" ”

I said to Butterfly, "I'm glad to meet you, Miss Butterfly, I've rested, welcome you to come and chat with me, how was your day going?" ”

Butterfly said excitedly, "Thank you for the arrangement, this place is so wonderful, a woman's paradise." ”

I asked Mary Liu again, "Miss Mary, do you think this place is good?" ”

Mary Liu also said happily, "Dear Jiang, I really like it here, I want to come here often in the future to enjoy, this is completely a woman's paradise, I am willing to do every project here, especially the women's sumo, the rose mud is so beautiful, I and the butterfly are not happy, I will bring my friends here in a few days, I must have fun." ”

I said to the two of them, "Come here and have fun, Boss Shen is very happy to meet you, you have become friends with her." ”

Mary Liu said to me very seriously, "Miss Jiang, we have been arguing with Zhang Lili for a long time just now, I have received the kindness of the two of you, and we are responsible for all the expenses that the two of us consume here, the more friends we have, the more we can't take advantage of them, we will settle the bill in a while, if you don't settle the bill for us, we won't come in the future." ”

I didn't know what was going on, so I looked at Zhang Lili with my eyes.

Zhang Lili smiled and explained to me, "No way, I also said just now, this time we invited the two of them to play, and when they come back in the future, they will settle the bill by themselves, and the two of them resolutely disagree, so pull me to find you, they must settle the bill, this is their living habits, and we should also respect them." ”

I understood what Zhang Lili meant, and decided not to argue with these two foreign friends anymore, so I said according to their meaning, "Two beautiful young ladies, this matter will be done according to your wishes, but because we are friends, my friend is the boss here, he wants to apply for VIP cards for the two of you, and then give you a certain discount according to the regulations of the VIP card, is it okay?" In the future, you will be paid at this discount when you come, including when you bring your friends. ”

Butterfly walked up to me, opened her arms and gave me a hug tightly, I also hugged her hard, Butterfly said to me, "Miss Jiang, you have such a good friend, we really envy you, give us a VIP card, we accept, there is also a discount for foreign checkout, this is a custom, we will have a discount in the future, we are very happy." ”

Mary Liu said to me happily, "Miss Jiang, we said yesterday that we would translate your book, and the three of us translators are here, can you tell us about your poems?" In the process of translation, we can grasp your meaning more accurately, and finally the original author is the principle that our translators should adhere to, understand your principles, and the translation of our books and poems can be more accurate, so as to show your artistic talent and achievements. ”

Talking about my poems, talking about my creations, I'm happy to talk to a few translators, "I'm happy to talk to you about my creations, about my poems, but let's talk so ramblingly, it's too unconsequential, I propose that this is okay?" Ask me the questions you care about the most, and I'll answer them, okay? ”

Mary Liu was the first to ask, "Miss Jiang, we read your poems especially prominently, for foreigners like us, it is not difficult to read your poems at all, why are your poems so easy to understand, while we are confused when we read other people's poems?" ”

I said to Mary Liu, "Miss Mary raised this question and I have been paying attention to it for a long time, there are many genres and styles in the process of artistic creation, and some literati and ink writers in order to show their talents, write their works in a mysterious way, as if they do not take some burning methods, people will not be able to write poems if they are confused, in fact, I think it should be the opposite, all our literary works, including our poems, are for everyone to understand, to be popular. If you want everyone to accept you, you must let people understand your poems, be able to understand your poems, learn your poems, and be able to be catchy, so that everyone can like it to the greatest extent possible, and spread it to the greatest extent, in fact, this is also a fundamental problem of literature and art, that is, for whom is the problem, we have long said that art is to serve the people, so my poems are easier to understand, written very straightforwardly, and artistically not as good as others, but I think I want to stick to this style, I write my poems so that everyone can understand, so that everyone can recite them, and they are catchy. ”

Miss Butterfly also asked me, "Where do you think the soul of your poetry is?" ”

I looked at the butterfly, and I looked at the other two, and then I said calmly, "All literary works have their characteristics, if you say what is the greatest characteristic of my poems?" Then it's the mood. China is a country of poetry, and there was a book called the Book of Poetry in ancient China, which was thousands of years ago, and later developed into metrical poetry, and since entering the modern era, modern poetry has become the protagonist of creation. Whether it is ancient poetry, metrical poetry, or modern poetry, the creation of Chinese poetry has followed a heritage, that is, artistic conception, or Chinese artistic conception, this phenomenon is not only manifested in the creation of poetry, but also in classical garden art, ancient architectural art, painting art, and literary creation. In literary creation, the artistic conception of poetry is more prominent, reading a poem is like a picture, like a flowing music, like a rigorous construction site, like a colorful garden, beautiful poetry will definitely give you a beautiful artistic conception, this is what I have been pursuing in creation, and I have been sticking to it, if there is any characteristic of my poems, it is the inheritance of Chinese artistic conception, let my poems adhere to this characteristic, that is the most beautiful enjoyment. ”

Zhang Lili also asked me, "Miss Jiang, I see that sometimes the style of your poems is not consistent, some are very neat in expression, and some poems are very untidy, but they will be catchy to read, how do you grasp the material of these poems?" ”

I calmly said to them, "The creation of poetry in our classical creation, that must be neat, only in the process of modern poetry there is a phenomenon of untidy, ancient poetry is very particular in the number of words, the creation of words is no longer so neat, and our modern creation does not pay attention to neatness, but when I was in the initial creation, I also wanted to make my poems neat, in addition to the number of words in the neat rhyme, the appearance is also very beautiful, but recently when I wrote poems, I also chose a lot of untidy long and short sentences, because time does not allow me to think about it, I will have more free bodies, when there is enough time, I will consider those rigorous neat bodies, which completely depends on the state of mind, which also completely depends on the content of the poem, of course, this grasp is random, but most of my poems are still neat, in the future creation, I also hope that there are more neat poems, I am very particular about form, a kind of beauty, and it is also liked by the majority of readers. ”

Just as they were about to ask, the waiter ran in and told me that Jiang Feifei had arrived.

While a few of them went out, I hurriedly hung up the phone to Senior Brother Qingfeng again, and the other party still replied to the message of turning off the phone, what is going on? A big question mark came to my mind.

When I came to Shen Xiaofu's office, everyone was already here, Jiang Feifei was wearing a big leather hat, a super thick and long red scarf, and a bright down jacket, and she was ridiculing everyone. Seeing me come in and standing up, the two of us walked over to each other, like sisters who had been reunited for a long time, I gave Jiang Feifei a big hug tightly, and said to her affectionately, "Third sister, you are finally back, we all miss you so much." ”

Everyone looked at us and hugged each other tightly, Shen Xiaofu jokingly said, "Eldest sister, look at the little sister, she is such an adult, she is still coquettish, she will never grow up, she is really a pure little girl, she is so cute." ”

Jiang Feifei also hugged me tightly and said, "Little sister, we still met last year, and the New Year is over in a blink of an eye, time is like flowing water, it's really not fake at all." ”

Jiang Feifei's humor is both natural and factual, although it has only been 4 days, but it has indeed passed the New Year and has become two years.

Xu Gezi said in his habitual melodious tone, "You two don't get tired anymore, Fei Fei has come back so far, how tired you are, little sister, hurry up and let your third sister take a rest, sit down." ”

Jiang Feifei pulled me to sit down on the sofa and said to me with concern, "I told you before New Year's Day, don't make yourself so tired this holiday, you don't listen, you tutor students every day, why don't you focus on one day of tutoring and two days of rest?" It's a big kid, it's really disobedient, and I've been busy for three days, so I know I'm tired. ”

Hearing Jiang Feifei's care, although she was complaining, she was actually distressed, and hurriedly told her, "I'm really not so tired, I'm so young, where can I not stand this little thing, I've had a full life in the past three days, I'll tell you in detail in a while, are you frozen?" Isn't it particularly cold over there? You're from Beijing, and you can endure the cold over there, and if I go over, it will be a big trouble, and I will definitely be so cold that I don't dare to go out. ”

Jiang Feifei said, "Although I grew up in Beijing, it was very cold when it was cold, but compared with Harbin, it was nothing here, the low temperature of minus 40 degrees, no matter how much you wore after going out, it would immediately freeze into a popsicle, and all the cold-proof clothes were useless, even then, the people who watched the ice lanterns on the banks of the Songhua River were also crowded, and you threw yourself into those crowds, you couldn't feel the cold, and what was even more strange was that some children and the elderly were among them, and we couldn't stand it when we were so young. How do you think they can withstand it? We also watched a winter swimming competition, and in that low temperature, everyone was wearing only swimsuits and swimming in the ice water, how much perseverance did it take? It really opened my eyes, what do people want to do? As long as you want to do it, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome, and I admire those winter swimmers from the bottom of my heart. ”

Shen Xiaofu said, "This scene has only been seen on TV news, and it will be more enjoyable to watch it on the spot, but those people, the result of years of accumulation, ordinary people can not rashly swim in winter, without a few years of exercise, it is estimated that it will not be successful, and how good physical fitness is needed." ”

Xu Gezi said, "In Harbin, on the bank of the Songhua River, it should be very beautiful to see the scenery on New Year's Day." However, people who go to see the winter scenery must have great courage, so the cold weather, if you don't protect it more, you must not be able to hold on, one day we four sisters will also form a group, to see the ice and snow scenery. ”

I looked at everyone, and then said to Jiang Feifei, "I have a friend named Zhang Lili, who is from the Language University, and she is also playing here today, and she also brought two international students, who just came out of my room, and will call you over in a moment to get to know you." ”

Then I said to Shen Xiaofu, "Second sister, those two international students must insist on settling the bill by themselves, you can give them two of them, the highest discount VIP card, they like it very much, and they want to bring their friends together." ”

Shen Fufu smiled and said, "Here you have the final say, everything is up to you." ”

Then I asked the waiter to invite Zhang Lili and the two international students, and they came after a while.

I introduced Jiang Feifei one by one, and they also chatted with Jiang Feifei for a while.

The butterfly said to Jiang Feifei, "Miss Jiang, where did you come back from?" Why do you still wear a hat with a big fur? ”

Jiang Feifei explained to him, "Miss Butterfly, I just came back from Harbin, which is the northernmost part of our country, and the temperature can reach minus 40 degrees, and the ice lanterns there are beautiful and magnificent, so I have to wear thicker, if I don't protect it well, my nose will be frozen." ”

Everyone was amused by Jiang Feifei's witty language, and Mary Liu said to Jiang Feifei, "I have an experience of that kind of cold, many of us Germans go to Sweden to ski, and the temperature in the Alps is also so cold, but the white snow scene is so beautiful, skiing is also a good sport, and it is not cold when exercising." ”

Jiang Feifei was very strange, looking at the two foreign girls, one was white and the other was black, but both of them were very tall and had devilish figures, and said to them, "The two of you speak Chinese so well, why don't you have accents like other foreigners?" ”

Mary Liu said, "I love China very much, love Chinese culture, I went to school at the Confucius Institute in my hometown when I was a teenager, and I have been learning Chinese for more than ten years Chinese. ”

In the process of Liu Mary's speech, the Beijing dialect and children's pronunciation are already similar to those of Beijingers, especially the intonation, which is basically indistinguishable, so that those of us outsiders are a little out of reach, Jiang Feifei is even more surprised, "Miss Mary, your Beijing dialect is really authentic, I, a Beijinger, have been amazed, I should really learn from you, you must be a Chinese expert, when it comes to Chinese culture, you are more convincing than us." ”

Mary Liu was a little shy, and said shyly, "Miss Jiang has won the award, I still need to work hard, I want to turn myself into an authentic Beijinger, except for the color of my skin, so that others can't see that I am a foreigner." ”

Shen Xiaofu said, "Miss Mary, you are now an authentic Beijing girl, you keep your hair up, cut your bangs, and comb your braids, then you are completely a Beijing girl." ”

Shen Xiaofu's witty language made everyone laugh, and Mary Liu also shook his devilish figure proudly, a pair of big eyes that could talk blinked and blinked, and her long eyelashes flickered, which was really cute.

Shen Xiaofu asked Butterfly, "Miss Butterfly, how are you having fun here?" ”

Miss Butterfly sang in a delicate white voice, gesturing and singing, "It's beautiful, it's wonderful." ”

Hearing Miss Butterfly's Beijing rhyme, I couldn't help but make everyone feel happier, and I couldn't help but laugh again.

Wash the pigeon and said to everyone in her elegant tone, "Today we will wash the dust of Jiang Feifei, Boss Shen specially prepared the old Beijing fried noodles, try the hand-rolled noodles made here, is it an authentic old Beijing flavor?" ”

Jiang Feifei said happily, "Second sister, you still have this hand." Old Beijing fried sauce noodles, in addition to hand-rolled noodles, fried sauce can be particular, it must be diced meat fried sauce, the procedure of fried sauce can be troublesome, can your chef make it? ”

Shen Xiaofu said proudly, "Third sister, give you this authentic Beijing girl to make old Beijing fried noodles, you will definitely pay attention to it, not only the fried sauce is very particular about kung fu, but also the dishes eaten with the fried sauce noodles are also very particular, soybeans and green beans are a must, mung bean sprouts are standard for an inch and a half, the beautiful radish shreds, celery dices, cowpeas, a total of six kinds, the dish code is not lacking, you see, okay, you will not let this Beijing girl find fault." ”

Jiang Feifei looked at Shen Xiaofu with amazement, "Second sister, you authentic Sichuan girl, if it is said that it is the cold noodles with shredded chicken in Sichuan cuisine, it is not surprising that you can say that the head is the Tao, why do you study the snacks and delicacies in Beijing so deeply now?" And the old Beijing's fried noodles are the first to say, it seems that your old code is really not in vain, in such a short time, you have already made Beijing's food so solemn, and it looks like you will make a lot of money. ”

Shen Xiaofu said triumphantly, "Borrow your auspicious words, in addition to the fried sauce and vegetable horse you just said, I also specially prepared for you, the freshly soaked laba garlic, the emerald green color, let you eat a bite, think about the second bite." ”

Xu Gezi said with a smile, "Look at the two of you, it seems to be a cross talk, the more you talk, the more energetic you are, hurry up and go to the restaurant to eat, how can you always listen to the delicious food, and you can know if it is authentic or not." ”

Everyone went to the restaurant in a hurry.
