Chapter 42: Choosing an Oiran
Just do it, in the remaining four days, Song Yaoyao took the two of them to visit the streets and alleys of Hejian Mansion, and they really bought a lot of things.
On the day of the selection of the Oiran, Song Yaoyao and the three of them dressed up and rushed to Huayue Tower early in the morning.
Originally, Song Yaoyao thought that the selection of Oiran was either a street or a lake, so that it was convenient for the people to have a glimpse of the demeanor of the famous prostitutes.
I found out yesterday that it was all nonsense in a novel. In fact, every Oiran Contest is held in the Green House, where wealthy local businessmen, talented people and politicians are invited to judge the Oiran.
As for ordinary people, at most, they can only know who this Oiran flower is, and if they want to take a look, they don't have to think about it.
In addition to these invited judges, if others want to go in and watch the competition, one person can get a seat for 10 taels.
Song Yaoyao's heart hurts, just watching a game costs 30 taels, this is the Oiran Competition, this is simply the ancient version of the Victoria's Secret show.
Song Yaoyao and the three of them came early, and found a relatively high seat and sat down.
There are two rows of seats in front of them, which are the judges' seats, which are different from their several people at a table, the judges' seats are luxurious single seats, and there is a coffee table next to them, on which there are fragrant teas and fruits and some small snacks.
After Song Yaoyao came in, he learned that there was a private room on the second floor, which was specially reserved for powerful VIPs, regardless of the number of people, the same price, 100 taels per room.
As soon as the time came, Hua Yuelou's mother came to the stage to announce that the Oiran Contest had begun.
Everyone in the audience lifted their spirits at once, waiting for the beauty to come on stage.
When Song Yaoyao was concentrating, he caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, and vaguely felt a little familiar, so he turned his head to take a look, it was Xu Lianhua.
Xu Lianhua was also accompanied by a tall man dressed in alien clothes, and the two were following the attendant to the second floor.
Xu was aware that someone was looking at him, Xu Lianhua turned his head, and happened to look at Song Yaoyao.
Song Yaoyao didn't expect him to turn around suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately raised his glass and nodded.
Xu Lianhua was also taken aback, he didn't expect to see Song Yaoyao here, but there were distinguished guests around him, so he nodded slightly, turned around and continued upstairs.
A small episode was quickly left behind by Song Yaoyao, and he began to concentrate on watching the game on the stage.
Originally, I thought that the Oiran Contest would require all the girls to take turns on stage to perform their talents, and the winner would naturally be elected Oiran.
In fact, this is not the case at all, there are more than 100 famous prostitutes from various state capitals who come to run for Oiran, and it will be the turn of the Year of the Monkey to come to power one by one.
The Oiran Contest is divided into several rounds, the first of which is a contest of appearances.
The girls were divided into groups of ten, and all the girls in each group came to the stage together, and the mother called out to introduce their origins, and the judges began to select, and only the five people in the group were selected, and the other five were eliminated.
In this round, half of the candidates will be brushed off.
Song Yaoyao looked carefully in groups and watched six groups in a row, and she didn't see any girl whose appearance could surpass Tan Yige, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
In the seventh group, Tan Yige finally appeared.
She came in full makeup today, and she looked even more brilliant, wearing a light blue smoke and flower silk group, outlining her figure with a slender figure.
A black hair is curled into a cloud bun, a pair of gold silk inlaid peony sideburns are inserted in the sideburns, a double butterfly play cloud white jade tassel is swayed on the bun, and a golden silk flower is skewed.
The whole person is both graceful and luxurious, like a Nine Heavens Xuannu who stepped on the clouds, which makes people fascinated and dare not blaspheme at will.
Among these ten people, Tan Yige's appearance is undoubtedly the most outstanding.
Song Yaoyao Da'an whispered to Zhu Feng and the others: "It has reached the seventh group, and no one can match Miss Tan's appearance, it seems that there must be no problem with the top ten, and I think the top three also have hope to compete." ”
Zhu Jingxing said: "The three local famous prostitutes have not yet come to power, so let's take a look." ”
After that, the three famous prostitutes in Zhu Jingxing's mouth also came to the stage in turn.
Sure enough, the red jade lady is tall and heroic, which makes people shine. As the name suggests, the autumn water fairy is as gentle and moving as autumn water with a smile and a smile. The delicate girl has a beautiful appearance, and her figure is the best among the people, she is really convex and backward, exquisite.
After the first round of competition, only sixty-four girls remained, and Tan Yige successfully advanced without accident.
Song Yaoyao commented: "Among the three people, only the autumn water fairy can compare with Miss Tan's appearance, and the other two are slightly worse. ”
Zhu Jingxing replied: "I heard that the autumn water fairy is the last Oiran, in addition to them, there is also the Luo Qingyi from Binyang Mansion whose appearance is also superb, and they are the fierce rivals of Miss Tan." But Miss Tan and Luo Qingyi are not as famous as the other three, and it's really hard to say who the top three flowers will be. ”
Song Yaoyao nodded, in addition to its own conditions to be good enough, fame is also a very important condition, some people can be popular quickly, this has been the case since ancient times.
The second round is to test their talents.
A pillar of incense is written with the theme of the moon, and the judges judge and select 30 poems to advance.
In order to show justice, this poem topic is drawn by lottery on the spot, and the girls' poems will also be copied by someone before being handed over to the judges.
Song Yaoyao said: "It seems to be fair, but it's too harsh to choose an Oiran and test cultural knowledge." ”
Zhu Jingxing said: "If you want to become a famous prostitute, in addition to your appearance, you must also have extraordinary talent and talent, which are all mandatory requirements. However, the shopkeeper can rest assured that Miss Tan's poetry is much higher than mine, and it will not be a problem to enter the next round. ”
After a selection, Tan Yige was successfully promoted.
"Are you going to pick the top 10 next?"
"It should be."
Mom took the stage, laughed with everyone for a while, and livened up the atmosphere for a while, before announcing: "Now it's the girls' turn to show their talents, according to the previous rules, only the top ten in this round are eligible to enter the final round to run for the Oiran, are you looking forward to it?" ”
The audience below also shouted with face: "Looking forward to it!" ”
Mom stepped down with a smile.
Song Yaoyao originally thought that the thirty girls would take turns to perform on stage one by one, and she was a little worried that if Tan Yi's song was rehearsed later, she would suffer, after all, there were only a few kinds of talent shows, and it was inevitable that she would be aesthetically tired after a long time.
But it turned out that she was worried about it again, and the organizers divided the remaining talents into three kinds, piano show, dance show and singing show, the girls only need to choose their best, a team of six people will perform on stage together, and then the judges will pick out the best two people in each team to advance.
This not only saves time, but also compares the advantages and disadvantages of the same group, which is convenient for the judges to judge.
Tan Yige is in the piano group, her talent is pipa, and she played a song "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night" with five other people on stage.
Song Yaoyao doesn't understand folk music, but he can also hear that Tan Yige's pipa skills are pure, and there should be no problem with promotion.
Song Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, even if he couldn't enter the top three, but in the future, Tan Yige was one of the top ten famous prostitutes in Jiangnan, which was enough for Song Yaoyao.
