Chapter 80: Controversy
On the second day, before the five of them got up, they heard someone shouting in the store.
I only heard one person say: "Red with green is an eternal principle, how can you change this red to another color?" seems to be teaching a lesson.
The other person said, "Who stipulates that red must accompany green? I like yellow, do you care?" There was a bit of rudeness in his words, and he seemed to be quite dissatisfied with the previous person.
The man before said, "Look at the peach blossoms in this courtyard, are they blooming very beautifully?" "At that time, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and although there was only one peach tree in the courtyard, the trunk was as thick as a bucket. Look at this appearance, this peach tree has been more than ten years old.
Fu Rong and the others stayed in this inn for five days, and they knew that there was such a peach tree in the courtyard. The branches of the peach tree were so thick that they covered most of the courtyard of the inn. The peach blossoms on it are piled up on the branches, and there is a breeze blowing from time to time, blowing down the petals on the branches, which is very beautiful.
After a while, one of them replied, "What's the matter?" Whoever sees the peach blossoms in the courtyard must also applaud and praise them. But the man did not know what the man meant when he asked him, so he answered.
The man from before said, "Do you see whether the petals on this peach tree are red or yellow?" After a long time, there was no sound. Fu Rong and the others thought that the person who refuted had been taken over by the person who spoke before, and they didn't dare to speak.
After a while, one person said, "Look, isn't this flower also so good-looking?" Fu Rong and the others listened to him, guessing that he must have brought a plant with yellow flowers from the left. I thought to myself, this person is interesting, in order to fight for this breath, he did not hesitate to spend so much effort to find a yellow flowering plant nearby.
The man before pondered for a long time and said, "Do you say that this peach blossom is beautiful, or is this rape flower beautiful?" It turned out that this person went to the outside of the city to get a rape flower, but the inn was five miles away from the city, and this person came and went only a cup of tea. Come to think of it, this person's foot kung fu is not weak.
The man who picked the rape flowers said, "The peach blossoms have the red and brilliant of the peach blossoms, and the rape flowers have the golden fragrance of the rape flowers. If you want to score superiority, you will think that this rape flower is better than this peach blossom. He didn't want to cause trouble, but he was forced to ask by the other party and had to answer. He also had a preconceived idea that yellow was better than red, so he said that rape flowers were more beautiful than peach blossoms.
The rape flowers pay attention to the beauty of the patches, the majestic wind blows, and the whole rape flowers are blown down one after another, and then stand upright again. It is like a golden wave, which makes people indulge in the fragrance of the whole flower. In fact, he only picked a rape flower, how can he compare it with the peach blossoms on the tree. I think it's for the sake of the moment.
The previous person was not annoyed, and said in a flat tone: "That is the case, do you see that there are green leaves on this rape flower?" This person should be as sincere as a hair, and when he sees the other party refute him, not only will he not be panicked, but he can also immediately find the other party's flaws. If this person applies this kind of mind to martial arts, he will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future.
The flower picker was immediately speechless when he asked this, but he was unwilling to admit defeat, and said, "You wait!" After saying this, the courtyard was quiet again. Fu Rong and the others knew that he was looking for the yellow flowers of Arino again, in order to prove that what the other party said was not entirely true. The people wanted to see the two men quarreling, and when the flower picker was gone, they got up and washed, and came to the courtyard to wait for each other.
Fu Rong and the others came out late, and saw a person standing in the courtyard with a huge paper kite at his feet. The surroundings were even more crowded, and I thought I heard the two arguing, so I came to see the excitement. The paper kite was made of bamboo chips with a white cloth on top. The corner of the white cloth is already green, but the blank space is dotted with a few yellows. I think that the man was coloring the paper kite before, and the man saw it, and the two argued about it.
Fu Rong saw that the young man standing next to this paper kite was Xu Huangmin, who was in a dilemma with Yu Sanqian yesterday. He had felt that the young man had been quite bold yesterday, and when he saw him arguing with someone, he wanted to see how he could persuade him. It was to stand in front of the baring in the middle of the courtyard and wait for the other man to come back.
Fu Rong and the others only stood in the courtyard for a moment, and one of them walked in from outside the door with a yellow flower in his hand. Seeing that the man glanced at everyone in the courtyard, his expression was quite proud. I think he found a yellow flower with green leaves, and he had the intention to compare Xu Huangmin in front of everyone. He walked straight to the middle of the field, put the yellow flower in his hand to his heart, and said, "Look, does this flower have green leaves?"
Everyone had already seen that what he had retrieved was a yellow flower, with a few green leaves under the stems and leaves. I all thought, this time Xu Huangmin has nothing to say!
Before this thought could turn around in his mind, Xu Huangmin said: "The begonia flower you took does have green leaves, but do you think this flower has more green leaves or more flowers?"
When the man heard him say this, he was speechless on the spot. Xu Huangmin said this, not to argue. Although this begonia flower is good-looking, it is not a big flower after all. In terms of color matching, it is obvious that it should not be green with yellow, but yellow with green.
Xu Huangmin saw that he had nothing to say, so he asked: "Since Brother Tai thinks that this yellow and green are good-looking, should all the paper kites be painted with yellow, leaving only a few places to be green?
The man didn't mean to do this, he wanted to use green as the base, and only dotted with a few yellow flowers on the paper kite. If, as Xu Huangmin said, all the paper kites were painted yellow with only a little green, wouldn't it be extremely ugly? Hearing Xu Huangmin say this, although he felt that what he said was quite inappropriate, he was not good at arguing, but he did not have the words to refute Xu Huangmin. was so angry that his face puffed up into a toad, and he didn't know what to do.
When everyone saw him like this, they all looked at him with a smile. I didn't laugh out loud, but the meaning was quite clear. This person is so useless, and the color of his paper kite has to be criticized by others, isn't this a joke?
When the man saw the crowd talking in a low voice, he naturally heard some of the words. People walking on the rivers and lakes have the most face, he was ridiculed by Xu Huangmin in front of these many people today, how can he raise his head and be a man in the rivers and lakes in the future?
Thinking like this, he couldn't help but be angry, and shouted: "This paper kite is mine, I can paint whatever color I like on it, can you control it?"
Xu Huangmin saw that he was angry, and bowed and said: "I don't mean to embarrass my brother, but you are not alone in this paper kite conference, if you get a nondescript paper kite to come out, and put it like this at the conference, won't it stain everyone's eyes and sweep away everyone's interest?"
When the crowd heard him say this, they applauded with sky-high prices. These people are all here for the paper kite conference, and I know that many people at this conference have come up with many new tricks in order to attract people's attention. Some people do have that talent, and the poems, calligraphy and paintings on the paper kite alone can attract countless onlookers.
And some people think of some strange tricks, and make something unsightly on the paper kite. Although this can attract everyone to watch for a while, but after that, everyone shook their heads again and again, quite ashamed to see such a thing.
If this person really made a nondescript paper kite as Xu Huangmin said, wouldn't it be embarrassing and conspicuous to come to the conference and make everyone unhappy?
