Chapter 186: I'm going to be famous
Cheng Xiaopang and Cheng Xiaofeng mentioned the closure of the bun shop. With disappointment on his face, Yi Yu comforted: "It's not a good time to close the door, there is always a day to come back when you return to your hometown, otherwise this store should be given to others in the morning, you see if the signboard is still hanging." β
Cheng Xiaofeng thought about it and said, "What I said is that their business is so good, how can they say that they won't do it if they don't do it." She also went to the queue to buy steamed buns this morning, only to find out that the business was closed.
While a few people were talking, the shopkeeper had already filled the four empty teacups on the table, "A few distinguished guests, what are you going to use for this meal?" β
Cheng Xiaofeng pointed to the dozens of woodcarvings hanging on the side wall to the relic jade, and said, "Xiaoyu, look at it, the red brand is the signature dish, and the staple food is that I eat cakes with Xiaohu." β
"Well," Yi Yu didn't say anything polite to her, walked under the vegetable brands, and stretched out her hand to pass it one by one, "Let's have a crab roe lion head, money shrimp cakes, white fungus vegetarian stew, soup Luo embroidery pills... Then there is a mushroom and phoenix claw soup, and three lotus cakes. Two bowls of rice. β
She has six dishes and one soup, which is the standard dish of the restaurant, Kyoto is not better than them in the countryside or town, meat accounts for almost eighty percent of the daily dishes, and the vegetables that can be eaten are mostly regarded as wild vegetables by Chang'an people, and only people who are not rich will use it for dinner.
The shopkeeper has a good memory, and after ordering the jade, he reported it again, and was about to retreat, but was stopped by Cheng Xiaofeng, "You wait-two more pots of Qiong Su." β
As soon as Yiyu heard the name, he knew that it was wine, and the wine at this time was mellow and fragrant and not easy to be intoxicating, and the Tang people took drinking as a graceful thing, regardless of men and women, young and old, even if they were students in school, it was common to drink one or two cups on weekdays, and Mr. would not blame him for this, as long as he was not drunk.
Lu Zhi said on the side: "I still have classes in the afternoon, Xiaohu gets drunk when he gets drunk, I and Yiyu don't drink, you drink two pots by yourself?" Xiao Er, just take a pot and go down. β
The shopkeeper glanced at Cheng Xiaofeng, and saw that she had no objection, so he bowed and retreated.
The four of them sat down at the table. Cheng Xiaofeng fiddled with the ivory basket in his hand, frowned and said to Yi Yu: "The one at the gate of the academy just now, that-"
Yi Yu kindly answered, "Chu Xiaosi." β
"Yes, you said she fell out with Changsun Xian?" Cheng Xiaofeng had a look of curiosity on his face.
"It's not a falling out..."Yi Yu didn't know how to explain to her, so he told her the conversation between Chu Xiaosi and Changsun Xian in the morning.
Cheng Xiaofeng pursed his lips, then lowered his head and stretched out his fingers to break them one by one, "One, two, three..."
Yi Yu asked Lu Zhi with her eyes: What is she doing here?
Lu Zhi picked up the teacup and explained without hesitation: "She is counting that Miss Chu, who is the first student of Guozijian who is good friends with Changsun Xian, and she is alienated by her. β
As soon as his words fell, Cheng Xiaofeng had already counted, took a sip of tea, and said to Yi Yu with a sneer: "I only found out after Yating said it, although Changsun Xian enrolled a year late, but in the past half a year, thirty percent of the students in Guozi School who were punished for making mistakes had befriended her before. β
Yi Yu nodded as if he didn't understand, "You made a mistake when you said it." It's like Chu Xiaosi and them, use ** on me, and then lock me up in a small black room? β
"That's not all, there are a lot of dirty things that can't be seen in this country's prison." Cheng Xiaofeng's eyes were a little cold, as if he remembered some bad memories.
Seeing that her face was not very good-looking, Yi Yu hurriedly changed the topic, "By the way, I heard in the morning that the third lady in the eldest grandson's mansion went to study in your Tai Academy?" β
Lu Zhi took her words very cooperatively, "Well, I just came here today, hehe, you are not the youngest female student in Guozijian right now, there are always people who are even more powerful than you." β
Hearing him praise the people of the eldest grandson's family, Cheng Xiaofeng was quickly diverted, and said dissatisfiedly: "What's amazing, it's just a showmanship, Xiaohu, don't you say?" β
Cheng Xiaohu is lucky in the eyes of most of the male students in Guozijian, there is just one more seat in their teaching room, and Changsun Xi will make up for this vacancy, and the two will have to attend classes together from now on.
Cheng Xiaofat, who had been struggling for two plates of fruit on the same table for a long time, was named, he spit out the kernel from his mouth, and replied with a stirring cheek: "No, the third lady's 'poem' is very good." β
The Academy of Calligraphy has a rule that new students must write on the ink wall when they enter the school, while the Tai Academy has to chant a poem written by himself in public and let everyone evaluate it. Call it a "poem",
Cheng Xiaofeng was demolished by Cheng Xiaohu, and his eyes widened, "Do you know poetry, you know what is good, the first poem you entered the school was written by Azhi for you in advance!" β
Yi Yu chuckled beside him, Cheng Xiaofat's face turned red, but he didn't have a hard mouth, but said: "Everyone said that she did a good job, and even Dr. Cha praised herββ"
Speaking of this, he reached out and patted his head, his voice suddenly raised, and said to Yi Yu: "By the way, Dr. Cha also praised Xiao Yu!" β
"Huh?" Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows.
The dissatisfaction on Cheng Xiaofeng's face also turned into interest, and he reached out to grab the fruit plate in front of him, and asked, "Old man Cha, cough cough, Dr. Cha praised Xiaoyu?" Come and hear it! β
When Yi Yu heard them mention Dr. Cha, he felt that this person's name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he tilted his head to look at Cheng Xiaohu, ready to hear what was going on.
Cheng Xiaofat was stared at by three pairs of straight eyes, and touched the back of his head with some embarrassment and said, "It's ...... in the morning."
Some students of Tai Academy have long been convinced that the third lady in the eldest grandson's mansion. At the beginning of the school year in October, they were going to study at Tai College, and some male students who still had vacant seats in the teaching hall were very excited, including the one where Cheng Xiaohu was.
Cheng Xiaopang knew that it was too late, after arriving at school this morning, he heard this in the conversation of others, after the class bell rang, Mr. took the third lady of the eldest grandson's family into their teaching house, and a group of male students suddenly turned red with excitement.
Changsun Xi is indeed a top-notch beauty embryo, and a young man like Cheng Xiaohu who has not yet opened his love is dumbfounded when he sees it for the first time, not to mention other young masters in the capital who are about the same age as him.
The eldest grandson Xi very obediently greeted the students in the teaching house, and then composed his own poem in the country. The students sitting below, whether they were literary or average, all sighed loudly, wasting a whole quarter of an hour on the evaluation, or Dr. Cha spoke out to stop these excited teenagers.
"Miss Changsun's poem is beautiful and elegant, and it does not lose its deep meaning, it is very good, very good, alas, except for the little girl in the academy, you are the woman with the best qualifications that the old man has ever seen."
As soon as Dr. Cha said this, the students below were not happy, Changsun Xi is now a student of Tai Academy, and he is not as good as a scholar academy, although they did not contradict it loudly, but they also talked one after another, with a look of disbelief.
Dr. Cha heard their whispered discussions, Xu got up early and drank two cups, cleared his throat, squinted his eyes with a little drunkenness, shook his head and read: "The tide of the spring river is even with the sea, and the bright moon on the sea is born together...... I don't know how many people will return to the moon, and the falling moon will shake the river trees. β
Dr. Cha recited a poem in its entirety, swept through the three or five students who were good at poetry, saw the intoxicated look on their faces, was very satisfied, and took out a piece of paper from the notebook he brought with him, shook it carefully, and handed it to the students in the front row for them to circulate.
"Miss San, let's take a look, this is the font created by the little girl herself, how about it, the old man didn't lie to you, alas! Don't tear it up, it was 'borrowed' from Dr. Jin by the old man, and he wants to pay it back. β
With a smile on her beautiful little face, Changsun Xi took the lead in responding in a coquettish voice: "The student sighs to himself, whether it is a word or a poem, he loses to that young lady, can you tell the student that the young lady has a big name and has such a literary woman." It's a pity that students don't know it. β
Seeing her modest and respectful appearance, Dr. Cha forgot about the earlier explanations of others for a while, and said with a smile: "Okay, Miss Changsun is not arrogant or discouraged, she has such a demeanor at a young age, and she is not the daughter of Shangshu Mansion, the female student of the Academy of Books is surnamed Lu, you all know the famous Gongzi Lu of our Tai Academy, that Miss Lu is his own sister." β
In the amazement of the students in the teaching house, Cheng Xiaohu was whispered by the people around him about the Yu because of his proximity to Lu Zhi, and he only cared about silly fun.
Cheng Xiaohu finished telling the matter vividly, Cheng Xiaofeng slapped his face and asked him with relish, Lu Zhi and Yu glanced at each other, the eldest brother of the Lu family shrugged, and the little sister of the Lu family reached out to support her forehead to suppress the feeling of dizziness.
Cheng Xiaofeng, who was still unsatisfied, leaned over to Yi Yu's side, slapped her on the back, and praised loudly:
"Haha, good! That's great! This matter is going to reach the ears of the eldest grandson, and it doesn't make her angry to death, she has always thought that she is the most talented and beautiful in this country, and now she is pressed by her fairy-like sister, and her sister is pressed by you again! Xiaoyu, Dr. Cha's words today have spread, you are definitely famous! My Cheng Xiaofeng will also have a talented girl sister in the future, haha..."
"Hehe..." Yi Yu laughed dryly at her twice, and then turned her head to glare at Lu Zhi, who was holding his fist to his lips to hide his smile.
After Lu Zhi coughed lightly, he restrained his smile and said to her: "It's okay, some fame is a good thing, but you may have more trouble recently." β
Yi Yu could hear the joke in his words, and knew that the trouble he said was not like being teased, so he asked suspiciously, "What trouble?" β
Lu Zhi smiled and said nothing, just as Xiao Er knocked on the door to serve the food, he shouted at the door: "Come in." β
The dishes in the private room of Hongyue Building are in charge of a special chef, and do not mix with the guests outside the seat, although the speed of serving is not fast, but it is better to be complete, no matter how many dishes you order, they always have a way to give it all at once.
Yi Yu didn't want to listen to Xiao Er's allusions to their signature dishes while serving the dishes, looking at the sly smile on Lu Zhi's face, he always felt hairy in his heart.
