Chapter 40: One Night Fish and Dragon Dance (6)
Chapter 40: One Night of Fish and Dragon Dance (Sixth)
When the woman walked out of the yard to pour water, the lights in front reflected the prosperity of Shangyuan Night. The yard behind Jinfeng Tower was not big, but it was considered exquisite. If it weren't for the top names in Jinfeng Tower, it would probably be impossible to live in such a yard. Today, on the Chinese New Year holiday, such a yard was not brightly lit, but it was actually quite rare.
In fact, most of the lights in this yard were only turned off not long ago. When it was almost time for a while, there were not many people coming to visit her. Nie Yunzhu looked at it and turned back to the room. Yuan Jiner, the owner of the yard, was lying on the bed and staring at the oil lamp in a daze, then smiled at her. Nie Yunzhu also smiled, put her face down and sat back to the head of the bed.
Logically speaking, Nie Yunzhu shouldn't have come tonight. Although she would come to teach the piano every few days, she had already left Jinfeng Tower, especially on nights and festivals, and shouldn't be close to here. But this time was an exception. Tonight, she went out to watch the lanterns with Hu Tao, and then met a Jinfeng Tower woman who was learning the piano with her. She was coming out to get medicine for Yuan Jin'er who was stained with the cold. Nie Yunzhu heard this and asked Hu Tao to come and visit him. When she learned that Yuan Jin'er wanted to see her, it was not too late, so she came in from the back door of Jinfeng Tower.
Yuan Jin'er is now the signature of Jinfeng Tower. Although he happened to be sick, it was still difficult to thank guests in such a day. Someone had been visiting him before. After confirming that Yuan Jin'er was really sick, he had a few conversations before leaving. Cao Guan, who is now known as the number one talented man in Jiangning, also visited him twice. At this time, he was drinking and writing poems with a group of talents outside. When Nie Yunzhu came in, he asked Yuan Jin'er's maid Kou'er to send a poem in. He was chanting the beauty in his illness. Yuan Jin'er had no choice but to accept it and ask Kou'er to go out to thank him.
"Speaking of this, Cao Guan is indeed very literary... How about my sister?"
It was said that the two sisters wanted to say private words. After sending Hu Tao out, Yuan Jiner showed the poem to Nie Yunzhu. Nie Yunzhu read it and put it down. Whether it was Yuan Jiner or Nie Yunzhu, there were many talented people who had seen this kind of poem that could show off his talent and was a little difficult to be amazed. What he cared about was Yuan Jiner's illness. Yuan Jiner smiled and shook her head.
"Actually, I feel sick. I will probably get better after taking one or two doses of medicine. But because of the cold, Yue Xin also happened to have arrived. His whole body was sore and weak, so it would be even more difficult to sing. Fortunately, my mother agreed to block some guests for me today, and she was afraid she would be in a state of anxiety."
"Mom's heart is still good." Nie Yunzhu nodded. She was orderly and well-off, so she was somewhat conscientious. If it were other places, she would probably not be able to redeem her body back then. Then she laughed and said something else: "How about sister and Cao Guan?" Yuan Jin'er had been getting closer to Cao Guan recently, and she knew about it.
"How can it be? The reputation of a talented man and a beautiful woman? Didn't my sister say that he is talented after all. What is the difference between Cao Guan and Li Pin? For Cao Guan, it's okay to be Yuan Jiner or Lu Caicai."
Yuan Jiner is younger than Nie Yunzhu. She is full of energy on weekdays. The cheerful and playfulness is the biggest reason why others like her, but today she looks lazy and discouraged. Nie Yunzhu wipes her face with a towel: "Don't say that, since he chose you instead of Lu Caicai, he will naturally have a better impression of you."
"Jin'er said that she wanted to find someone with family background and could raise Jin'er as a pig. Hey, Cao Guan has no money, so she doesn't like it very much."
"If you really raise you into a pig, you will be swept out immediately." Nie Yunzhu patted her face, "Cao Guan is talented, and I think it's okay to go to high school in the future. Will you really be able to raise Jin'er, you are a pig?"
"There are many talented men in the world, even the number one talented man in Jiangning mentioned by others. Is it so easy to go to high school? Besides, if you don't have money to manage your family and only pass the Jinshi, you have to wait and wait if you want to make up for your real vacancies..." Yuan Jin'er lay there and said, then pursed her lips and thought, "Sister Yunzhu, you said, if Jin'er also redeems herself, how about selling the pine flower eggs with you?"
Nie Yunzhu smiled and said, "Are you stupid?" She came here occasionally and had some conversations with Yuan Jin'er. Therefore, Yuan Jin'er also knew that she had built a pancake cart and had recently tinkered with some pineapple eggs, but she had never seen it yet.
Yuan Jin'er thought for a while and smiled foolishly: "No, but Hu Tao is going to get married too. After she gets married, Sister Yunzhu, you will feel lonely. It just so happens that Jin'er can come to accompany you. Sister Yunzhu, you said Songhua eggs so well. I guess it is a reliable business, and Jin'er has a support."
"I thought about being a pig for others all day long, but I said I wanted to do things. I thought I was confused." Nie Yunzhu just laughed. She naturally understood that Yuan Jiner could not count this at this time, just a sudden idea. "How can I make a stable business? I have been exploring all day long. I was losing money every day. Moreover, I'm afraid it's not easy to get married and become an old girl. Jiner should find a talented man who can raise you as a pig and love you..."
"It's quite majestic to be a female shopkeeper..." Yuan Jin'er said this, and then the two talked about talented men such as Cao Guan, Li Pin, etc. In fact, there are many talented men every year, and they know a lot of them. Yuan Jin'er was sick and menstruation at this time, and her mouth was a little vicious. Nie Yunzhu was also happy to hear it, and during this period he also talked about Ning Yi.
"That song is so good. Unfortunately, such a person married into a businessman's family, and the words were bought..."
Nie Yunzhu whispered: "You don't know Ning Liheng, how did you know that you bought it?"
Yuan Jiner pursed her lips and smiled: "If Sister Yunzhu is interested, she can go to the front and listen to the corner of the wall. Today, the talented men will definitely say it again, and I suspect that the words were bought."
There are only a few words about Ning Yi. Nie Yunzhu did not think of her opinion. Yuan Jiner just commented casually. She was a little tired after a while. Nie Yunzhu came over with a cup and asked her to drink some water: "It is best to have a rest, it is better to have a nap."
Yuan Jin'er hugged the quilt but didn't sleep. The sound of a lively banquet came vaguely outside. Nie Yunzhu sat by the bed with her, then carried the guqin beside her and placed it on her legs, and played a few notes. After a while, she sang in a low voice: "Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green all over the sky..." Her voice was light and soft, but she sang slowly casually, but gave the whole space an ethereal atmosphere, as if covering up the noise outside. Yuan Jin'er looked here, and Nie Yunzhu looked at her and smiled: "The evening breeze blows the willow flute and the sound of the flute is gone, and the sunset mountain is outside the mountain."
"What kind of music is this from Sister Yunzhu?"
The sound of the piano was slowly ringing, Nie Yunzhu smiled but didn't answer, and soon sang again: "The end of the sky, the corner of the earth, half of the friends are falling..."
This farewell song is the second song that Ning Yi gave to her before the New Year. Nie Yunzhu has been thinking about it recently. After the song was finished, the piano sounded for a long time before stopping.
Yuan Jin'er was puzzled: "It's like "Ruan Langgui", but the first sentence of the first stanza should be seven characters, but the second stanza is a little different, the rhyme is turning, how can this be done... It's just that Sister Yun Zhu's singing style is really nice..." She thought about it and widened her eyes, "Is Sister Yun Zhu studying the new singing style? But... it's a bit...well, it should be a game work..."
Most of the people Yuan Jiner came into contact with were just singing craftsmen. Only Nie Yunzhu had already entered the house, or was a master. She was qualified to change some singing styles. Of course, it was difficult to really accept it, but this was not publicly published anyway. But even to Yuan Jiner, it was good to be heard, but this singing style was indeed too surprising, and she was just a game work, and then she recalled the artistic conception in the lyrics.
"Although it's simple, this sentence is really a good mood. Unfortunately, it's not a lyric, it can only be called a short sentence. Jin'er is really envious of Sister Yun Zhu's talent."
"It's not what I did... Jin'er just moved around, have a good rest."
"Have Sister Yunzhu met the one she liked?"
"Don't think about it, you can't marry."
"Oh, I think of which girl it is... Well, this kind of short sentence game is also like..."
This song "Farewell" is actually paying attention to rhyme, but it is not respectful to the lyrics and cards, and is not a poem. Although it sounds good, it can only be called a game work. When she thought this way, Nie Yunzhu didn't explain much, but just put her into the quilt with a smile. At this moment, footsteps outside sounded, but Kouer and Hu Tao. Kouer looked a little nervous, holding a piece of poetry in her hand: "Miss, something unexpected happened, Mr. Cao is afraid that he will lose again this time..."
Before Nie Yunzhu came, Kouer served Yuan Jin'er by the bed, and the master and servant talked about many poems tonight. In terms of quantity, Lichuan has the most excellent works. But personally, Cao Guan performed very well tonight, and several of his excellent works were praised. Li Pin, who went to Puyuan to attend the banquet, was just a moderate performance. Therefore, in Kouer's opinion, Cao Guan's reputation will be confirmed again in many poems tonight. However, after running in without any thoughts, there was obviously another problem. Yuan Jin'er asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"There are poems coming over Puyuan. This time everyone was scared. The atmosphere outside was so strange..." Although it was not a six-ship boat, the Puyang family's poetry meeting was still called the Puyuan poetry meeting on the Lantern Festival.
"What's wrong with the Puyang family?" Although the goal in the future is to be raised as a pig, after all, after all, after so long contact, Yuan Jiner still hoped that Cao Guan would be famous, so she took the paper in confusion.
Nie Yunzhu next to him laughed: "It seems that Mr. Li Pin and Mr. Li can't help it after all..." It was already shocking that the Puyang family killed a dark horse five months ago. This time, Li Pin, who thought it was just ordinary all night, got angry and took out a masterpiece to shock everyone. This is not surprising, Li Pin's style has always been a bit off-the-scenes, but sometimes it is amazing.
After hearing the lady say this, Hu Tao's expression was a little complicated, as if she had something to say. Kou'er shook her head desperately: "No, no, no, it's Mr. Li, it's Ning Yi and Ning Liheng. He wrote another poem about Shangyuan..."
"ah?"
Nie Yunzhu was stunned for a moment and quickly looked at the paper. Kua'er next to her had already said vividly: "It's so interesting to say it outside. I heard that Ning Yi didn't plan to attend the poetry party today, but he was seen while shopping and was invited to the house. A large group of people even made things difficult for him..."
Nie Yunzhu looked at the lyrics on the paper at this time, and when she saw them halfway, she could no longer hear the noise.
She had been in contact with Ning Yi for some time. They did not interact because of their talent, but Nie Yunzhu had always heard of Ning Yi's talent. The two never mentioned talent learning poetry or something, but only interacted with ordinary friends. But it was impossible to say that Nie Yunzhu had no expectations in her heart and doubting it would be impossible.
For her, the other side of Ning Yi that she had never seen before.
"The east wind blooms thousands of flowers at night. It blows down even more, and the stars are like rain..."
Yuan Jiner read it out in a low voice until the last signature:
Su Mansion.
Ning Yi.
