Chapter 231: Creating a New Genre

Walking into the gate of Fat Yan Zhai, there were many people in the hall, all of them were women, including boudoir ladies, ladies and maids, and ordinary village aunts and village women.

Most of these people's eyes are with some contempt and contempt, after all, as young men, they naturally want to pay attention to the fame of the imperial examination, and reading these unserious books is not doing their jobs.

Jiang Yun ignored these strange glances, and was about to go straight to the counter to talk to the shopkeeper about the manuscript, when he heard an exclamation from the side: "Isn't this Brother Jiang!"

Jiang Yun looked back when he heard the sound, and saw an aunt in a coarse cloth skirt looking at him with a surprised face, and when he saw the other party, he was also a little impressed, and knew that her surname was Gu from the name of others.

How come every time he comes, he can see this Aunt Gu, and he secretly slanders in his heart, it seems that this Aunt Gu is really a frequent visitor here, and she is obsessed.

"It turned out to be Aunt Gu. He bowed politely.

"It's really Brother Jiang!" Aunt Gu stepped forward in surprise, gave a thumbs up all of a sudden, and began to praise the other party.

"The book written by Brother Jiang is really good-looking, everyone said it was good, I bought it back, and I have read it more than a dozen times so far, every time I read it, I can watch it with relish, after reading it, it is not enjoyable, and I have been thinking in my heart, when will Brother Jiang have a new work...... Yes, Brother Jiang, sign your aunt's name......"

For Aunt Gu's enthusiasm, Jiang Yun couldn't refuse, Aunt Gu had already asked for pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the study, and handed over a brand new West Chamber, he took the brush, dipped it in ink, and inscribed his pen name "Jiang Shang Diaoyusuo" on the title page of the book.

After finishing writing, he handed the book back to Aunt Gu and said with a smile: "Aunt Gu, this is my first signature." ”

When Aunt Gu heard this, she smiled even more, touched the signed title page, and said with praise: "It is worthy of being a scholar, this handwriting is beautiful, and it is better than the Spring Festival couplets written by Xiucai Gong in our village! Thank you Brother Jiang, this book will definitely be well preserved." ”

Aunt Gu's movement had already alarmed many people in the hall, and under curiosity, many people gathered around here.

"Aunt Gu, what are you doing here. ”

"What, this little brother is Jiang Shang Yusuo, the author of the West Chamber?"

"This can't be, I heard that the river fishing is an old Confucian who is rich in learning and likes to fish on the river, how can it be such a young brother......"

"Aunt Gu, are you confused......

Everyone gathered around and talked endlessly, most of them expressed doubts and disbelief about Jiang Yun's identity.

Aunt Gu clarified vigorously: "This is true, this little brother Jiang is the author of the West Chamber, he is the river fisherman, he can't be wrong!"

"It seems to be really this little brother Jiang, I remember the last time I came, I saw him come to contribute. There was a green-dressed maid next to her who stared at Jiang Yun tightly, as if she wanted to remember.

"Is it really him, a young young offspring?" a woman sighed, as if she had a feeling of idol disillusionment.

"I didn't expect the famous river fishing to be so young, what do you call a young brother? ”

"It doesn't matter what his name is, anyway, I like to watch the West Chamber!"

"Yes, I've read the West Chamber no less than three times from beginning to end, and I can memorize the words in it!"

"Ever since I watched the West Chamber, what Yutang Chun, the complains, I haven't watched it. ”

"Fishing on the river, sign me a name!"

"Sign me a ...... too"

Some people believed in the identity of the author of Jiangyun Xixiangji, and some people were still suspicious, but when they saw that everyone else said so, they also believed it, and they begged for autographs.

All of a sudden, the scene was so noisy that Jiang Yun felt tired and anxious.

"What's going on, what's going on?"

With a crisp voice, a beautiful woman in yellow clothes walked in from outside the door, followed by a green-clothed girl.

"Miss Liu!"

"Miss Liu is here!" Seeing the visitor, many people greeted one after another.

Miss Liu came to the crowd and asked curiously, "What's wrong, why is there a large group of people gathered here." ”

Someone next to him smiled and said: "It's really strange today, I heard that the famous river fishing is here, and look, it's this young brother." ”

Miss Liu's eyes had fallen on the only man in the crowd at this time, and she was stunned, obviously remembering that this one was not the one who came to submit the manuscript at the beginning, but also the author of the West Chamber.

Remembering that she swore that she would never look at this West Chamber, a trace of discomfort flashed on her face, in fact, she was indeed disdainful, even if the West Chamber had been written for a long time, and after it was very popular, she insisted on disdainful of it.

Until one day, the green-clothed maid Xiaozhu next to her couldn't help it, and secretly bought a copy with her own private money and came back to look at it secretly, she found out, and scolded her, but even the maid Xiaozhu couldn't help but say that this West Chamber Book is good-looking, and she can't stand the maid's hard pouting, curiosity, with a critical mind, she just casually a few pages, and this look, it is out of control, up to now, this West Chamber has been read no less than three times from beginning to end, of course, she will never admit it, even to her own maid will not admit it。

"I know, you are the author of the book that wrote the West Chamber, what is good about this West Chamber, what is great, it is just blown out, the text and plot are vulgar and old-fashioned, the taste is the same as chewing wax, there is nothing to be desired!"

Miss Liu raised her eyebrows, and said lightly without blushing and her heart beating.

Jiang Yun also remembered Miss Liu, who likes to find fault inexplicably, and said with a smile at the moment: "I remember that this girl once said that she would never read my West Chamber, and it seems that she broke her promise." ”

Miss Liu snorted and said stiffly: "Who reads your West Chamber, don't be self-righteous here, I haven't read a word!"

Jiang Yun said slowly: "Since I haven't read it, how do you know that the text and plot are vulgar and old-fashioned, and the taste is the same as chewing wax, so there is no merit?"

When the people next to him heard this, they couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker, Miss Liu pursed her lips and said, "Do you still need to watch it, you don't need to watch it, you just know it if you think about it." ”

Jiang Yun couldn't help but be speechless, this young lady is really domineering, she doesn't need to look at it to know, she immediately raised the manuscript in her hand and said, "This is a new work in the next one, I hope you don't look at it well." ”

"Ah, Brother Jiang, you really have a new work, great, what's your name, when the book comes out, Auntie must have a sneak peek." Aunt Gu said with a smile.

"It seems that he is really a river fisherman, and there is a new work. ”

"I'm really looking forward to it, I really want to see it sooner. ”

"Fishing on the river, is the new work a sequel to the West Chamber, I haven't seen the West Chamber. ”

"Can you tell us a little bit about that?"

Everyone is gossiping, and they are obviously looking forward to Jiang Yun's new work.

That Miss Liu was so angry that her face turned blue, she glanced at the other party fiercely, and said: "Hmph, don't be stinky, I don't plan to watch it, I don't need to see it to know, it must be another vulgar clichΓ© story, I have polluted my eyes after seeing it!"

Jiang Yun smiled, shook the manuscript in his hand, and said slowly: "It's okay to say that this book is anything else, but to say that it has an old-fashioned plot and is unbearable, it must not be, it is completely a novel work that opens up a new genre." ”

"Phew, it's also a new genre, Wang Po sells melons, sells herself and boasts! It's disgusting! Xiaozhu, let's go!" Miss Liu took a sip, didn't choose a book, pulled the maid, and turned around angrily and went out.

Out of the gate of Fat Yan Zhai, Miss Liu stopped again and instructed the maid Xiaozhu beside her: "Xiaozhu, wait a minute, you go and ask Shopkeeper Tong, what is the name of the new work submitted by that fanatic." ”

When the maid Xiaozhu heard this, she lowered her head and covered her mouth and snickered.

"Stinky girl, what are you laughing at!" Miss Liu exclaimed in annoyance.

The maid Xiaozhu couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss, since you said that you don't read that person's book, you want Xiaozhu to ask him what the title of the book is." ”

Miss Liu said with a tense face: "I understand, don't look at it in the future, lest I accidentally turn it over and be disgusting." After that, he walked away with confidence, and the maid Xiaozhu followed, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, then Xiaozhu will ask and understand, you must not let the young lady see that person's book!"

In the hall of Yan Zhai, everyone was even more appetized by Jiang Yun's words, and they asked one after another.

"Brother Jiang, what's the name of your new book? Aunt Gu asked curiously.

"Fishing on the river, you're not bragging, are you, is it really a new genre work?"

"What kind of story is written? "Someone is getting more and more curious.

As for the story written, when the book comes out, everyone will know after reading it. ”

Jiang Yun reported the title of the book, immediately separated the crowd, and walked to the counter, leaving a large group of people there to speculate and discuss.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes?" sounds weird. ”

"Or maybe it's a new genre. ”

"You really believe him, it's so easy to create a new genre!"

"That is, I have seen a lot of mountain people and monks in the past, and they swore that they would do something innovative, but the result came out, and it was not that old-fashioned!"

"I believe in Brother Jiang, when this hero comes out, I will definitely buy a copy and have a sneak peek!" Aunt Gu was full of confidence and looked like a supporter.

Jiang Yun ignored these people's discussions, and went straight to the counter, the female shopkeeper behind the counter, Tong Lingyu, had already seen him, but when she saw that he was surrounded by people, she didn't come over to disturb him, and at this moment she greeted him with a smile.

"Jiang Gongzi, you are a rare guest, you are here, you have missed the welcome, please forgive me!"

In fact, she has been waiting for the other party's new work for a long time, but after all, the other party is a young boy with a good future, and she should be famous for the imperial examination, so she is not easy to urge, otherwise it would be too much of a sin to delay the fame of the imperial examination.

Now that she sees the other party coming, and faintly hears that the other party has brought a new work, she is still happy in her heart and is looking forward to it.

Jiang Yun said: "Shopkeeper Tong has seen the outside, some time ago, during the trip to Fucheng, he was taken care of by Shopkeeper Tong, and he should have come to visit him a long time ago, but he has been busy recently, and he has not been idle." ”

"Jiang Gongzi is polite, please serve tea inside, and sit down if you have anything to say. The shopkeeper Tong smiled and stretched out his hand, and led the other party into a private room next to him and sat down.

After sitting down, drinking a few sips of tea and greeting a few words, Jiang Yun talked about business, took out a volume of manuscripts, put it on the table, and said: "This is a new work in my spare time, I wonder if it can get into the eyes of the shopkeeper Tong?"

Tong Lingyu's eyes swept over the manuscript on the table, and he didn't take it for a while, but said with a straight face: "The concubine has a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Jiang Yun said strangely: "If the shopkeeper Tong has anything to say, just say it." ”

Tong Lingyu said: "Then the concubine will say it directly." Jiang Gongzi is outstanding in learning, has good qualifications, is young, he was a child, and his future can be described as very good, and he should work hard to make a name for himself in the imperial examination, and make meritorious contributions, this is the right way, if he delays the right path of the imperial examination because of distractions, it is because of small losses, and the gains outweigh the losses. The concubine's bluntness, please don't be surprised. ”

Jiang Yun listened, only then did he understand what the other party meant, and was about to say something, Tong Lingyu waved his hand again, stopped what he was about to say, and then said: " I know that Jiang Gongzi's reputation is not good for a while, and Shilin has many slanders, but Jiang Gongzi can't be self-defeating and give up on himself, Jiang Gongzi is still young, and the road is still long in the future, and the temporary stigma and reputation are nothing, the saints are all clouds, and they can change their mistakes, and they are good, as long as Jiang Gongzi is brave after being ashamed, he will reform himself, change his mind and face from now on, work hard, and finally revive his reputation, the day of the title of the gold list, I don't know if Jiang Gongzi thinks so?"

It seems that she thought that the other party had a bad reputation and had become a street rat and a scum of Shilin that everyone shouted and beaten, so she simply gave up on herself.

Jiang Yun listened, what else could he say, what the other party said was just, and it was also good, he had to say a few perfunctory words to express his agreement with the other party's words.

Tong Lingyu's eyes swept a few glances at the manuscript on the table, although she wanted to stay, but in the end she held back this thought and said, "Then this manuscript, Jiang Gongzi will take it back." ”

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Tong thinks that writing this book will delay the serious scientific examination?"

Tong Lingyu nodded, and Jiang Yun said: "Shopkeeper Tong doesn't have to worry, I said, this is just my leisure work, it doesn't have much impact on my academic homework, and I will take the Xiucai exam next year, so I naturally know the importance and will not lose a big deal because of a small one." ”

"What Jiang Gongzi said is serious, it really won't affect your academic homework?" Tong Lingyu asked again.

Jiang Yun said: "Of course it's true. ”

Seeing what he said, Tong Lingyu believed it, and looked at the manuscript on the table again, in fact, she also wanted to see it.

Jiang Yun added a fire to the side and said: "It's not boasting, this is a book that opens up a new genre." ”

This sentence became the last straw that broke the camel's back, Tong Lingyu didn't hold back, and immediately reached out to pick up the manuscript on the table, spread out the beginning in front of him, and looked down in front of him. (To be continued.) )
