Chapter 78 The seventy-seventh cheek has a legacy of fragrance

This Zhao Wenxiu's cousin, Wang Shigong, has been doing business in the theater these past two days, so Zhao Wenxiu came to him, and it was a sure thing that he would meet him.At that time, the car arrived at the gate of the theatre, and the patrolman standing guard at the gate didn't know what kind of rich man had come, so he hurried to stand beside him.When the car door opened, it was Zhao Wenxiu who came out, unexpectedly.Normally when Zhao Wenxiu came in and out, he would laugh with the patrolman at the gate, but now he got out of the car and entered the gate with his head held high. When the patrolman laughed with him, he ignored it.When he got to the manager's room, Wang Shigong was writing a letter. He looked up and saw him. He was about to speak when he saw two soldiers with box cannons standing behind him. He couldn't help being startled.Zhao Wenxiu first smiled and said: "Cousin, my good friend Brigadier Commander Wu is now at the Ping An Hotel. I came here in his car just now. These two are his guards. There is also the Brigadier Commander, Kong Junqi Officer, Chief of Staff Sun." Wang Shigong heard him say a lot, but he was inexplicable, he just stared at him, and then said: "My good friend Brigadier Wu, he has a few words to say Tell me. I came here specially to talk to you." Wang Shigong said: "Which Brigadier Wu? I don't know him." Zhao Wenxiu said: "It doesn't matter if you don't know him, he is my good friend, you will go with me all the way Go and see him." Wang Shigong said: "If there is something to do, I must go, I will definitely go. But you have to tell the whole story, what do you need to come to me." Zhao Wenxiu was afraid that Wang Shigong would not go, so she went He told about Wu Xueqi's recommendation for a role, but he didn't mention who the role was.After Wang Shigong heard the details, he put down a stone in his heart. It turned out that it was not a big deal.According to Wang Shigong, he had to take his own car.Zhao Wenxiu said: "Why bother, we can go together in Brigadier Commander Wu's car." Looking back, seeing the two guards had left, he said with a low smile: "Take his car, there are two people standing outside the car. A soldier, how majestic is that? And the car runs like flying, and it’s really a pleasure to sit on it." When he said that, he urged Wang Shigong to let him go.Wang Shigong couldn't be urged, so he had to go with him.

When I arrived at the Ping An Hotel, I met Wu Xueqi, and I saw Zhou Meifang at the first sight, and suddenly realized that she was the one who recommended her.Wu Xueqi said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, boss Zhou, probably he also knows him?" Wang Shigong said: "We are very close friends." Wu Xueqi said: "Since we are very close friends, why don't you invite her in your garden? What about singing?" Wang Shigong said: "That's what I meant." Then he frowned, because he said, "I have no choice but to invite you long ago. At this time, I really dare not add anyone." Wu Xueqi saw He meant to refuse, so he was very unhappy, the color of his face changed from black to light purple.His brows shrugged and his eyes stared.Seeing that he was disapproving, Wang Shigong was afraid of offending him, so he hurriedly said: "But the person introduced by Brigadier Wu has to find a way. Let me go back and discuss it with the backstage." Wu Xueqi said: "There is no need to discuss it. You want to go back to discuss, isn't it because you are afraid of spending money?

This level doesn't matter, how much money should be spent, I will take it out.What do you think? "Wang Shigong said with a smile: "That's a joke, how can there be such a reason? "Wu Xueqi said:" What's the matter?Do you look down on me and say that I can't spend this money? "Song Hanbiao was afraid that the two of them would have a quarrel with each other and some jokes would be made, so he was fair to Wang Shi: "My brother Wu can do what he says, and he is not being polite, so Mr. Wang will decide what to do. "Wang Shigong said:" Brigadier Wu is very grateful for such kindness, but he dare not act like that. "Wu Xueqi said: "You are reluctant to spend money in the theater yourself, and you are embarrassed to spend money when others spend money.After all, the person I recommend will definitely lose face. "Wang Shigong said: "Don't dare, dare not, Boss Zhou is very good, so we plan to invite him.With such an introduction from Brigadier Wu, I really want to invite you.But..." Wu Xueqi said: "Don't be too good at it, you might as well invite her.As for the amount of money, we don't care, but we just want this face. "Wang Shigong saw that Wu Xueqi repeatedly said that it was not about the amount of money, but that he didn't want much money, so he agreed. Then he replied: "Since Brigadier Wu is helping in this way, I will take some responsibility, which is regarded as inviting Boss Zhou.As for the amount of silver, let me go back and discuss it, and then I will reply to Brigadier Wu. "Wu Xueqi said: "It doesn't make sense if you say this.I'm still staying in Ping'an Hotel for ten or eight days, waiting for your reply?It's settled once and for all, if you have anything to say, just say it face to face and it's over. "Wang Shigong was embarrassed by his hard words. Song Hanbiao said again: "Mr. Wang, you don't have to think about it, just take this responsibility for a while.You made a deal with Bao Yin in person. "Wang Shigong said with a smile: "Although my brother is a manager in the theater, he can only hire the miscellaneous actors who cost twenty or thirty yuan, and he can be dispatched at will.As for the better ones, it is always necessary to discuss with a few senior members of the shareholder meeting. "Wu Xueqi said: "I see that you may not be able to produce three hundred and two hundred.If it is said to be 80, then I don't care, I only play cards with Boss Zhou once a month and it will be enough.Didn't you say twenty or thirty yuan, can you be responsible?Now I don't need you to pay thirty yuan, but only twenty yuan. "

Speaking of this, he turned around and said to Zhou Meifang: "Don't think you have too little money, I'll give you an extra one hundred yuan every month. I pay the one hundred yuan, and I'm not afraid of showing my face in the theater." When he said that, his face turned to Wang Shi Gongdao: "Don't tell the truth to the outside world. If I recommend someone, only twenty yuan is enough, but I will be scolded." , what a strange thing.At that time, he replied: "As expected, brother can be responsible for agreeing. But I don't know when Boss Zhou is willing to take the stage?" Wu Xueqi laughed and said: "I can't decide this. The matchmakers in the world can only find you a new wife, but I can't take care of you." Zhou Meifang was a little embarrassed to hear his rough words.Wu Xueqi saw that she was silent, so he said: "What's the matter, do you think the money is too little? Don't worry. If the money I promised is nothing, I, Wu, is not man-made." Everyone in the room laughed.Wu Xueqi said: "Don't laugh, I'm telling the truth. Boss Ji, don't tell outsiders about what we're doing. Once you tell, Boss Zhou will feel embarrassed." Before Ji Danmei could answer, Wu Xueqi lost his mind again. Turning her head, she said to Zhao Wenxiu: "You have to give her a boost. Didn't you want me to find a job? You have to do this job well. I'll do something for you. You got it right, surname Wu's words are not broken." Zhao Wenxiu was very happy in her heart, and she wished she could immediately agree to say yes.Helplessly, in front of many people, I was embarrassed to say that, so I just laughed dryly for a while.Wang Shigong asked Zhou Meifang when she would be on stage, but he never asked, and he guessed, this may not lead to any clues.After talking for a while, I asked Zhou Meifang to discuss it again in the theater, and left before leaving.

Zhao Wenxiu messed around in the Ping An Hotel for a while, until only the boss Ji Zhou, the second brigade commander of Song and Wu, left. He listened to Brigadier Wu's words that he could give an errand, so he planned to spend the night.I want to praise Zhou Meifang, but when it comes to money, I am not qualified, unless I advocate for her in the newspaper.Yang Xingyuan, the editor of the film newspaper, had a little friendship with him, why don't you go and see him.If he is willing to draw a piece of land on the supplementary sheet for me to comment on the play, I can give him a big praise as much as possible.

But if you find someone out of the blue, aren't you suspicious?Zhao Wenxiu spent most of the night thinking about a solution, but unexpectedly he got an idea.On the next day, I came to visit Yang Xingyuan.Yin said: "Last two months, I told you that I wanted to invite you to the theater. Just because I was busy with things, I forgot about the treat. Yesterday, two friends asked me to invite him to the theater. I suddenly remembered this matter. So I don’t dare to delay any more. I am here to visit you today. Please set a date for me so that I can come in the future.” Yang Xingyuan said: “Thank you very much. But your brother You didn't invite me to the opera, I'm afraid you misremembered it." Zhao Wenxiu said: "Yes, yes, I'm afraid Mr. Yang has too much business to do, so he forgot this date?" Yang Xingyuan can't think that it is someone who invites him to the opera. malicious.He said: "I'm very busy these days, I don't have time to go, what should I do?" Zhao Wenxiu said: "If you are busy, you can go later, and just listen to one or two good plays. We have a ready-made private room. Go there at any time, there are vacancies there. As long as you go, you can say hello first, and I will prepare everything for you. I don’t see the play tomorrow very well, so I won’t invite you. The next day’s play, it’s okay , there is also a very beautiful new actor coming to the stage, you can invite Mr. Yang to take a look. As long as Mr. Yang says yes, and the newspaper promotes it again, then it will be worth ten times as soon as it is titled." Yang Xingyuan said with a smile: " I don’t dare to take what you say. Besides, I have a lot of things to do, how can I have the time to be a drama critic?” Zhao Wenxiu said: “That’s okay. If you don’t think my article is nonsense, I’ll give Mr. Yang the job. Work, send five hundred words to the government every day, please correct it." Yang Xingyuan thought about it, he is a researcher of leather springs, and he knows some tricks.If you can send four or five hundred words of jokes every day, it's a good deal, you can't miss it, so you said with a smile: "If you can do me a big favor, I will be grateful, what exchange do you want?" Zhao Wenxiu said: "Fulfilling a pure duty, there are no conditions. If Mr. Yang must be paid, at most there are some old novels you don't want, and you can send me two sets, and that's it." Yang Xingyuan laughed and said: " As an editor, if someone sends a good manuscript to him, it is like a cook who gets a gift of rice, so it is not unreasonable. If you have such a good intention, please give the big manuscript as soon as possible." Zhao Wen Xiudao: "Although I am willing to play tricks, I don't know what Mr. Yang's opinion is. We will use the play the day after tomorrow as a standard. We will watch it and discuss it at the same time. After the discussion, I remember that it is a good article. The day after tomorrow Please be sure to come." Yang Xingyuan was asking for something from him, so he agreed to go.

On that day, Zhao Wenxiu called several times to remind her, and after one o'clock in the noon, she left.When Zhou Meifang took the stage, she sang "Nuqi Jie", Yang Xingyuan thought it was very good, and praised it a few words.After a while, Zhao Wenxiu left the box, went somewhere, and then walked over with a smile, and said: "Mr. Yang, you think Zhou Meifang is pretty good this week, right? She also knows you." Yang Xingyuan said: "This is It's absurd. Although I love to listen to operas, I have nothing to do with opera singers, not to mention she is a Kunling who has just arrived in Beijing, how could she know me?" Zhao Wenxiu said: "There is naturally a reason for this. One If you say it, you will understand. Among Mr. Yang's fellow villagers, is there anyone who borrowed money from you to go home with you?" Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "The more you say this, the more strange it becomes. Is Zhou Meifang still my fellow villager?" Zhao Wenxiu He smiled and said: "I don't tell you that you can't understand. Although Zhou Meifang is not from your hometown, she has a follower, but she is from your hometown. The name of this fellow is not passed on, only Lao Qiu. Is there such a person?" Yang Xingyuan smiled. Said: "Yes, there is this person. He was wandering in Beijing and couldn't go back to the south. He sued his fellow countrymen and asked for money to leave. I helped a little bit. But it's been a long time. Has he not left yet?" Zhao Wenxiu said: "That's not it, he's been taken care of by Zhou Meifang now. As soon as he praised you to Zhou Meifang and introduced me to you, Zhou Meifang said that he would go to the noble apartment to see it tomorrow." Yang Xingyuan said: "Then I will declare in advance It's not that I don't want to see you, my Ju Ding, he likes to hold the horn of Kun most, and I often persuade him. If Kun Ling wants to worship me again, I'm too contradictory." Zhao Wenxiu said: "Since That's it. I'll take you to her house to play." Yang Xingyuan said: "I don't know each other before, so it would be rash to go?" Zhao Wenxiu said with a smile: "They are originally open-minded, and now they are new to the stage, they want to be more open Get married.

You go, she is very welcome, not at all rash. "When Yang Xingyuan saw Zhou Meifang's appearance, she felt that she was quite delicate. She couldn't stand Zhao Wenxiu's encouragement, so she had to agree to go. Zhao Wenxiu didn't wait for the show to end, so she brought him to Zhou Meifang's house. It's a long way from here. Near, just across a road. This is a Shanghai-style small Tukumen one-story house newly built by the municipal office. One house has a small courtyard, surrounded by four houses on three sides, and two rows of houses are sandwiched into a small alley.The house is small, there are many people, slop buckets, soil baskets, broken tables and chairs, etc. are crowded into the alley through the door.Walking through a small alley, at the corner, there is a narrow door, half-opened and half-closed.A small red note was pasted on the door frame with the words "Shang Yu" written on it, and there was a small white board with the words "Li Yu" written on it.Zhao Wenxiu said: "This is it." He stepped forward and knocked on the door knocker twice.A white face sticks out from the front room, and it smiles when it sees anyone.She was Zhou Meifang, she immediately nodded to Zhao Wenxiu, and called "Old Qiu" again.That old Qiu rushed out, saw Yang Xingyuan, and quickly said: "Boss Zhou, this is Mr. Yang."

Zhou Meifang greeted him straight out and asked him to sit in the room.Yang Xingyuan saw that there was a table with bare legs in the middle of the room, and a pile of briquettes piled under the table.Another half of a bag of flour.There are a few unpaired chairs scattered around, a picture of a beautiful woman on the flour company's month plate hanging on the wall, and a few New Year pictures of the rich and the rich, and nothing else.Fortunately, it was clean enough to sit down.Yang Xingyuan never expected that the beauty lived there, it was so simple, he couldn't help but look a little surprised.But Zhou Meifang saw it, and said with a smile: "Our room is really dirty, but we really can't entertain distinguished guests, what should we do?"

Zhao Wenxiu said: "It doesn't matter. I asked you to take a big bag of money and rent a big house, and then you can invite us to drink." Lao Qiu rubbed his hands and stood at the door of the house.He smiled and said: "Grandma Zhou here is about to invite Mr. Zhao, but she has just left." Zhou Meifang said: "Why do you need her at home?" Then she smiled at Yang Xingyuan: "On this street, A Jiangsu restaurant has just opened, and I invite the two of you to have some dim sum there. If you two appreciate the face, please go with me. If you don’t appreciate the face, I dare not invite you in a daze." Zhao Wenxiu laughed : "Go, go, I'm not polite." Yang Xingyuan thought about it, it would be too vulgar to refuse, and he will take it later.Also go by default.When Zhou Meifang heard about it, she changed into a moon white silk shirt and went with them to the Jiangsu Pavilion.

The three of them found a private seat, and the understanding guy had already put down the curtain.Zhou Meifang smiled, pointed to the top and said to Yang Xingyuan: "You sit here." When she said that, Zhao Wenxiu and her were already sitting on both sides, leaving only the bottom vacant. Yang Xingyuan couldn't give in if he wanted to, so he smiled and said, "It's better to be respectful than to obey, so I'll sit down." Zhou Meifang and the waiter asked for a dish plate, and handed it to Zhao Wenxiu with a smile, "Mr. Zhao, can you represent me? I don't know how to write." Zhao Wenxiu said: "Didn't you say to eat dim sum?" Zhou Meifang said: "No! I invite you two to have a drink and two dishes." Yang Xingyuan wanted to be a host, so he wouldn't politely refuse.Zhao Wenxiu and Zhou Meifang were more acquainted, and the more they refused to refuse, they asked for pen and ink and opened the menu.Zhou Meifang asked Yang Xingyuan, "What kind of wine do you drink?" Yang Xingyuan said, "I don't know how to drink." When he was talking, he was grabbing melon seeds on the table with his hands.Zhou Meifang put her palm on the back of Yang Xingyuan's hand, looked at it and said with a smile, "You must drink some." When she smiled, there were two small dimples on her cheeks and she fainted.The back of Yang Xingyuan's hands felt hot, and he felt a strange feeling, so he smiled and said: "If you want me to drink it, I can drink a little rice wine." Zhao Wenxiu said: "That's good. There is Chen Shaoxing here." It's decided Yes, I ordered half a catty of rice wine first.The menu was handed over, and after a short while, the food and wine came.Zhou Meifang took the small tin wine jug, held the jug beam and stretched out her white arms, and poured it into the Yang Xingyuan big wine bell.Yang Xingyuan didn't have time to toast to each other, so he just put his hands on the cup and said yes.After pouring, Zhao Wenxiu was not polite, she had already picked up the cup and waited in vain.Zhou Meifang poured it for him, and poured most of the cup herself.Zhou Meifang smiled and said "no food", raised the cup to Yang Xingyuan, Yang Xingyuan also smiled, raised the cup and drank.From then on, Zhou Meifang raised a gesture to Yang Xingyuan as soon as she brought a cup, smiling and insisting that he drink.Yang Xingyuan couldn't help but drank three cups in succession.Seeing that he was drunk, Zhou Meifang came over with a jug and poured him another drink.Yang Xingyuan smiled and said, "Boss Zhou, don't be too polite. My serving is too small, I really can't drink it." Zhou Meifang was holding the wine pot of sorghum hanging in the air, refusing to take it back. He smiled and said, "If you don't continue, I won't be able to get it back." Yang Xingyuan couldn't help but drank another cup.So he covered the wine glass with one hand, hid it in his bosom, and smiled at Zhou Meifang: "I really can't drink anymore, I have never had the capacity to drink. There are many ways to go home. If you are drunk, it will be very inconvenient. "Zhou Meifang smiled, and the two dimples moved again, and said: "Okay, drink another half a glass, and dinner is here.What do you think? "Yang Xingyuan said: "If it's only half a cup, it's still too much. " As she said that, she stretched out the cup to catch the wine, but Zhou Meifang took this opportunity to pour the jug at Yang Xingyuan's cup desperately.Yang Xingyuan smiled and hid the wine glass in his arms.As soon as the wine in the wine glass rippled and overflowed, it splashed a piece of the clothes in front of his chest.Zhou Meifang shrank back with a smile, and said, "I don't know what to do, and I can't even pour wine." Then, she took out a handkerchief from her body, walked over, bent down, and wiped it for him. Wine stains on the chest.Yang Xingyuan took the handkerchief and flicked it a few times.Zhou Meifang repeatedly said sorry.Yang Xingyuan smiled and said, "I'm sorry, it's something that the southerners always say, and Boss Zhou has learned it anyway." Wither Meifang smiled and said, "That's what I heard too.Isn't that right? "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "Exactly.But it's too difficult for you to be so polite and say sorry. As Zhi said, Ke put the wine glass on the table next to him.Zhao Wenxiu smiled and said to Zhou Meifang: "You don't want to toast! If you want to toast again, Mr. Yang will have to escape from the banquet." Zhou Meifang turned her head to look at Yang Xingyuan. No more persuading people to drink.Yang Xingyuan has always refused to drink hard, so he has never been drunk.This kind of rice wine doesn't feel strong when you drink it, but after drinking it for a while, the wine will explode in your stomach, and you will feel a little dizzy.The dishes I usually like to eat, but now I eat them, but they have a different taste.I reluctantly ordered half a bowl of cold porridge and drank it, which made me feel better.So he quietly took out a five-yuan bill, handed it to the clerk, and asked him to settle the accounts.After a while, the clerk brought the bill and the change all the way.Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "The account has been settled, we won't let it go." When Zhou Meifang saw it, she smiled and said that she couldn't do it, but the money had been handed over to the cabinet, so she had to forget it, and said with a smile: "Yes, please wait a day later. Forget it." Then Zhao Wenxiu was very honest, he scooped up the vegetable soup one after another, scooped it into the rice bowl, and even mixed the rice with the soup meter, hesitantly, he ate his own with the vegetables and rice. Yang Xingyuan always felt a little flustered in his heart, afraid of getting drunk and throwing up in front of people, it would be very unseemly, so he talked to Zhou Meifang perfunctorily before leaving and going home first.When I got home, I quickly asked the servant to make a pot of strong tea.While drinking tea, while lost in thought.Considering that Zhou Meifang is very handsome, she has been reduced to showing off her looks, and using wine and food to communicate with others, which shows how difficult it is for people in the world to eat.But such hospitality is rare.Thinking about it, I kept drinking a pot of tea, but I was still thirsty.At this time, the feeling of alcohol was strong.Yang Xingyuan lit a benzoin, put it in the steel stove, sat down to gather himself together, and saw a fountain pen on the table.Because the tip of the pen was not covered, I picked up the pen by chance, and took the thick horizontal paper on the table to practice English, and wrote with the pen for fun.I don't know how I remembered two lines of Tang poems in an instant, so I wrote: "At that time, I was drunk and beautiful, and the beauty was as delicate as a flower. Today, the beauty..." After writing here, I couldn't remember it again, so I pushed the paper away. , put up the pen, stood up, and stretched, feeling sleepy.Because I greeted the servant, I had boiling water and made tea, so I took a book, sat on the sofa to read, and waited for the tea. If you read half a page first, you can still understand the words in the book. After reading half a page, you don’t know what the book says, and gradually you even forget what you are doing sitting here.When I opened my eyes, I saw that the electric lights in the room were blindingly bright, and the evening wind was blowing in from the windows, blowing on people, making it a bit shady.Except for a few bugs chirping at the foot of the outer wall of the window, there was no sound at all.When I looked out the window, it was as dark as lacquer, and I could only see a shadow of the roof on the opposite side, which was dark and gloomy.It turned out that the night was dark and everyone was asleep.Sit quietly and think about how I fell asleep leaning here.At this time, there was a slight smell of wine, mixed with the fragrance of flowers, which could be faintly heard.Thinking: "I'm really drunk. Why do I still have the illusion of this kind of wine after sleeping for so long?" So I quietly paid attention to it for a long time, to see where the fragrance of flowers and wine came from?After smelling it for a while, I suddenly laughed out loud.It turned out that the smell of alcohol didn't come from anywhere, it was the breath from his own mouth.Sitting here quietly, I will smell this smell.I thought to myself that this is the so-called fangs between the teeth and cheeks.Even though the owner of the drink had paid for it himself, Zhou Meifang's kindness was appreciated.I sat and thought for a while, because my throat was still very dry, I poured out a whole pot of boiling water and poured it into a teapot. I was about to find a cup of tea when I saw something covered with a piece of white paper on the table. There was a line of words written on the paper: "What's the matter, I made my brother drunk like mud. When I came here, I was dreaming, so I didn't dare to disturb it. I bought a plate of yellow mandarin oranges and put them on my brother's case, in case of emergencies. The moon is oblique The wind is still, the city is on the third watch, the dream is broken for the first time, where is Yu Xing, when I saw this thing at the first glance, I was surprised and half-smile? Smile. Jian Chen and blue waves are the same white." Yang Xingyuan looked at the tea tray, and it was indeed on display. Eight oranges.And his paper knife was also wiped clean and white, and he put it aside.When he was thirsty and wanted to eat cold food, he was very satisfied when he encountered this kind of food. He cut the orange with a knife and ate three in one go.After eating four heads, I felt thirsty better.After eating a meal of oranges, I just went to bed and fell asleep. When I woke up the next day, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning.When he woke up in cloak, he saw a letter and a photo on the table.See that the letter is in Scullian's handwriting.When I took it apart and looked at it, I only said a few words, saying that Sister Dongqing had two family videos in my place, and I asked to give one of them to my husband, so that I could keep a photo of Aunt Li in your place and send it to Sister Qing for receipt. Please reply to this film to avoid suspense.Nothing else is mentioned here.Yang Xingyuan also knew that the two parties had a marriage relationship, and the traces had disappeared. Of course, she couldn't say anything in the letter.At that time, Yang Xingyuan did not hesitate, and wrote a reply letter on the English grid paper on the table, just saying that the photo had been received. On the other hand, he had written a few words last night, but he didn't pay attention, and hurriedly I sealed it and sent it to be mailed. After playing for a long time yesterday, I got up late again today.This work is naturally crowded together, and we must get busy.Therefore, the door was never left, and I tried my best to write and edit the manuscript, and it was only at six o'clock in the afternoon that all matters were considered completed.After five or six hours without stopping writing, the man was very tired, so he leaned against the sofa in the outer room, half sitting and half lying down.He sat quietly for half an hour without moving.Suddenly someone in the yard outside said: "Why are you so quiet? Did you hurt the wine? Are you sick again?" Another said: "It's not about sick wine, it's not about sad autumn." Listening to that voice, the first one was He Jianchen, and the second One is Wu Bibo.Yang Xingyuan pretended to be asleep and ignored him. The two of them came in and ran to the inner room.He Jiansheng said: "Why is there no one?" Wu Bibo said: "Although we are not far away, you don't see the manuscripts on the table, they are piled up unreasonably, and the ink boxes are not covered." He Jianchen said: "Let's play a joke on him, Put this manuscript away. When he comes back, you can see him looking for it. "Wu Bibo said: "The best thing is to put away the manuscript, get a few other sheets of paper and burn them to ashes, put them on the floor, and say..." After a few words, I saw Yang Xingyuan sleeping in the outside room, He smiled and said, "We still have a bad idea.I haven't thought of an idea yet, and everyone knows it.You see, he doesn't sleep outside. "Yang Xingyuan still ignored him, just pretending to be asleep, but He Wu came over and shouted again and again: "Wake up, there is a guest. "He Jianchen said: "Looking at this, Bo couldn't wake up, probably he worked too hard. "Yang Xingyuan stood up with a smile and said: "Don't feel sorry for me, and plan to burn my manuscripts. "He Jianchen smiled and said: "My idea is just to put away your manuscripts, and I don't want to burn the paper to scare you.This poisonous idea came from Bibo. " Wu Bibo said: "He's so happy, we should scare him." Yang Xingyuan said: "I'm so happy about something. I feel that everyone has something to sleep, so is this happy?" Wu Bibo laughed. : "At that time, I was in a beautiful family, and the beauty was as delicate as a flower." Yang Xingyuan said: "Hey, is that for this? Yes, it seems that I wrote these fourteen characters last night. How did you see it? "Wu Bibo said: "Have you eaten the tangerines we left behind?" Yang Xingyuan said: "Yes, thank you." Wu Bibo said: "We bought you tangerines for your fourteen characters." Today we are going to ask you, which family are you drunk with? A good man should not lie." Yang Xingyuan said: "This is a very public matter, why did I lie?" Yin told all the things he had heard about the play yesterday afternoon, and Zhou Meifang's invitation to dinner.He Jianchen said: "Fortunately, you are the one who can do it. If she can do it, you will be in trouble enough." Yang Xingyuan said: "Then why?" These are two old sayings, what do you not understand? Zhou Meifang and you have such a great friendship, how can I invite you to dinner as soon as we meet?" Yang Xingyuan said: "I have already understood this level. Advocate for her. She is a newcomer, and she occasionally makes a show, which is also the meaning of cultivating cosmetics, so there is nothing wrong with it." Wu Bibo said: "Your words are simply to promote her, no wonder it is popular in society. When doing business, the first thing is to treat guests. No wonder there are such benefits to treat guests. In fact, that kind of person is fine." Yang Xingyuan said: "Isn't this the era of social openness? Men can invite women, and women can also invite men. Why? Kunling treats guests, so you can’t come?” He Jianchen said: “I mean, that’s not what I said. I thought that Kunling’s contact with Mr. Li of the newspaper was nothing more than wanting him to give her a boost. After eating, do you still want to promote it or not? What about advocacy? If you don't promote it, you are sorry for others. If you promote it, are you willing to hold the horn? "Yang Xingyuan said:" You are also worried about what you said.But Kun Ling's art is really good, we should also reward a few words.You can't scold Kun Ling just because you are suspected of supporting the role. "He Jianchen said:" I didn't say that Kunling should be scolded.But you have never seen Zhou Meifang's art, so why do you say that you should reward it? "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "You two have come here so hard just to refute this matter? "He Jianchen said: "He came here without hesitation, you guessed it.As for interfering with your holding the role, that's not true.We have a very important mission, and we want to talk to you, can you accommodate? "Yang Xingyuan said: "I don't know what you are discussing, how can I accommodate your request first?If you want to chop off my head, should I agree first in a daze? "Wu Bibo smiled and said: "Although it is not necessary to cut off your head, but it is quite troublesome to tell this matter. " As soon as Yang Xingyuan heard the voices of the two of them, and looked at their faces, she understood that there were nine out of ten things, but she still pretended not to know, and said with a smile: "Since you say this, I want you to explain it in detail even more. It's detailed." Wu Bibo looked at He Jianchen and said with a smile, "Go ahead." He Jianchen smiled, and without speaking, he stared at Yang Xingyuan's face.Yang Xingyuan said: "Why? If you have something to say, just say it." He Jianchen said: "I will say it naturally. Let me make a statement, everyone speaks in a realistic manner, and no high-profile voices are allowed. "Yang Xingyuan said: "That's good, what I'm most afraid of is singing high-profile.Please go ahead. "He Jianchen smiled, concentrated his attention for a moment, and then said: "You are a smart person, if we talk about it so solemnly, there is nothing you don't understand.We are here to talk about nothing else but your own marital problems. "Speaking of which, Yang Xingyuan sat on the chair and moved slightly together, as if he wanted to speak. He Jianchen stretched out his hand, waved it a few times, and said: "Wait a minute, let me finish.Ordinarily speaking, there is of course no room for us to intervene in the important matters of your marriage.But we have been entrusted by others, and since we have something to say, we have to tell you. "Wu Bibo smiled and said: "You hear this clearly, this is a clear explanation, don't take it as a false hat. "He Jianchen said: "Don't joke with him.As a result, he pays less attention to our words.Xingyuan, I think about your own business, you have some plans.But when the pushcart reaches the wall, you have to turn yourself, and you can't necessarily rush over the wall.The old Mr. Fang specially invited the two of us to dinner the day before yesterday, saying that Ms. Li had a last resort and couldn't go any further with your relationship.And you are fully aware of this kind of difficulty, and you are very understanding of Ms. Li's attitude.Because of this, Ms. Li is very unwilling to delay your marriage because of her personal relationship, so she recommends someone to replace you.As for Ms. Zhi, we rarely met, so we couldn't know how well she was educated.But on the outside, he is also a smart and handsome character.However, because of her age, she is more lively and cannot be as quiet as Ms. Li. "Yang Xingyuan said:" You two don't need to mention it, I know everything you want to say.I not only need you two to persuade me about this matter, but I also persuade myself all the time.But now I feel that the matter of marriage, rather than being forced, is worse than nothing.It's never about people.I'm telling the truth, now it's planned, I will go back to the south after autumn, visit my mother for a while, and then talk about this matter.Before I go back to the south, I will not mention it for the time being. "Wu Bibo said:" Since you are so resolute, after you meet your aunt, do you want to go to Ms. Li?The mansion and the Pipa Pavilion are only separated by a strip of water, so it is very convenient to go there. "Yang Xingyuan said: "Although I am willing to go, if she doesn't see me, what should I do?So this idea, I haven't made up my mind yet. "He Jianchen said:" He doesn't need to mention it.I know everything you have to say.What you mean is to solve this difficult problem face to face with Ms. Li.You can't make up your mind until you have an interview with Ms. Li.So for anyone to have a marriage event, you are unacceptable.Right or wrong? Bibo, forget it.We have been planning in vain for a while, and according to what he said, our words cannot be heard. Needless to say.The thing I asked you to praise is very important, so let's do it. " Wu Bibo smiled and said: "This is what you journalists often use, and you just make a sudden turn. Have you uncovered this issue?" He Jianchen said: "What if you don't make a turn? You don't know the current affairs, and you can't talk to him all the time. Won't your words work?" Yang Xingyuan said: "You are all scolding me. I have made up my mind. Not only do I not expect praise in this life, but even if I am convicted of not getting married, I am willing to bear it." He Jianchen said: "Nonsense, I said asking for praise is a real thing." Yang Xingyuan said: "Who is asking for praise? Why do you have to go through Bibo's hands? Don't you just do it?" Wu Bibo said with a smile: "I'm doing it now. This kind of business is solicited everywhere. Is there anyone on your way to ask for compliments? I can hire you, very quickly, within two weeks, and you can come down." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "I don't see that Bibo got the advantage of a famous errand. This has become bureaucratic." Bibo said: "Do you think this is some kind of mess? This is a very open business. Now the Ministry of Internal Affairs does not pay salaries, and everyone has a hundred and ten yuan vouchers. This kind of Vouchers are thrown on the street, and it takes a lot of effort for people to pick them up. But there is an advantage in this department. If you use this voucher to ask for compliments, one dollar is treated as one dollar, out and out. So some people Go to the Ministry to ask for praise, and the cash will be left by the person who handles it, and you will be handed over a coupon. The person who asks for praise has nothing to lose, and he can exchange waste paper for cash as soon as he changes hands.事情，只有主管司科的人得着，旁人岂能不眼红。因之部里索性公开起来，无论是谁，只要是本部的人都可以介绍请褒扬。主管的人和介绍的人，另订一种调剂的办法。这一来，他们就四处打听，有人请褒扬没有？只要你肯请，阿猫阿狗，都可以办。而且另外订几个优待条件，可以照章程上的价目，打折扣缴款。并且可以指定日子完事，不象从前，平常请褒扬，拖了整年的工夫才能发表。”杨杏园道：“这倒有趣，是打几扣呢？” 吴碧波道：“这就早晚市价不同，神而明之，存乎其人了。”杨杏园道：“你并不是内务部的人，你为什么倒要出来兜揽这件事情哩？”吴碧波道：“这我自有缘故在其中。我有一个亲戚，在那边办事，穷的了不得。他自己上了几岁年纪，懒在外面兜揽，却把那事拜托了我。我想一个两个人，那是有限的事情，我就和剑尘约起来，各人分头写信到南方去，问有要办的没有。说明了，只要来请，准可办到。不料成绩很好，在一个月工夫里，我们两人凑起了十几位请褒扬的，有几百块钱的买卖。我想和敝亲商量，并案办理，代用券换下来的现金，就三一三十一，各人分一点，留得看电影吃小馆。这种事，一方面救济了灾官，一方面又替人请了褒扬，一功而两得。虽然从中挣几个手续费，也不能算是造孽钱吧？”杨杏园笑道：“挣钱的人，他都有要挣钱的理由，不过象你二人，还少这几个钱用吗？我觉得你们这样办，未免细大不择了。”何剑尘笑道：“不劳而获的钱，又管它多少呢？你等着罢。 将来我得了钱，可以请你吃饭。“杨杏园笑道：”我是贪泉勿饮，请你不必作这个人情罢。“何剑尘道：”这样说，我们可以从今天起，画地绝交，因为我还是个贪人呢。“吴碧波笑道：”你别忙，你看有了钱，请他吃小馆子，他去是不去？剑尘，你在这儿等一等，我到敝亲衙门里去一趟，若是他有相当的答复，今天晚上，我们就先吃一顿。“说时，拿着帽子在手，站起身来就要走。何剑尘道：”好，你快走罢。我静等着你的好音。“吴碧波听了他的话，当真笑着去了。
