Views:

When the woman walked out of the door in the yard to pour water, the lights in front of her reflected the prosperity of Shangyuan Night. The courtyard behind the Golden Wind Tower is not big, but it is exquisite. If it weren't for the top names of the Golden Wind Tower, it would be impossible to live in such a courtyard. Today's Shangyuan Festival, such a yard is not brightly lit, it is actually quite rare.

In fact, most of the lights in this yard were turned off not long ago, and when it was almost midnight, there were actually not many people who wanted to come to visit the doctor. Nie Yunzhu looked at it, turned and went back to the room. Yuan Jin'er, the owner of the courtyard, was lying on the bed staring at the oil lamp in a daze, then smiled at her. Nie Yunzhu also smiled, put his face away, and sat back on the head of the bed.

It stands to reason that Nie Yunzhu should not come here tonight. Although she will come to teach the piano every few days, she has already left the Golden Wind Tower, especially at night and festivals, and should not be near here. But this time is an exception. Tonight, I went to the street with Hu Tao to admire the lights, and then I met a woman from Jinfenglou who was learning the piano with her. She was coming out to get medicine for Yuan Jin’er, who had contracted the cold. Nie Yunzhu listened and asked Hu Tao to come and visit. Knowing that Yuan Jin'er wanted to see her, it was too late to pinch her, so she came in from the back door of Jinfeng Tower.

Yuan Jiner is now the signboard of Jinfeng Tower. Although she happened to be ill, it is still difficult to thank guests behind closed doors on such a day. People have been visiting before, and after confirming that Yuan Jiner is really sick, they talk a few words before going out. . Cao Guan, who is now known as the number one talent in Jiangning, also came to visit twice. At this time, he was drinking and writing poetry with a group of talents outside. When Nie Yunzhu came in, he also asked Yuan Jin'er's maid Kou'er to send in a song, chanting sickness. Yuan Jiner had no choice but to accept it with a smile, and let Kouer go out to thank him.

"Speaking of which, this Cao Guan is indeed very talented... How is my sister?"

It was said that the sisters wanted to talk privately, and after sending the walnuts out, Yuan Jin'er showed the poem to Nie Yunzhu, and Nie Yunzhu read it and put it down. Whether Yuan Jiner or Nie Yunzhu, I have seen many talented people. Although such handwritten poems can show talent and want to be amazing, it is a little difficult. What I care about is Yuan Jiner's illness. Yuan Jiner Smiling and shaking his head.

"Actually, the illness is mild, and it's probably better to take one or two doses of medicine. It's just because of the cold, it just so happens that Yuexin also arrives, and the whole body is sore and weak, and it's even more difficult to start singing. Fortunately, my mother also agreed to block some for me today. Guest, she is afraid that she will be overwhelmed."

"Mom's heart is still good." Nie Yunzhu nodded, orderly and well-off, people have some conscience, if it were other places, she was afraid that she would not be able to redeem this body, and then laughed and said something else: "My sister and I How is Cao Guan?" Yuan Jin'er and Cao Guan have gotten closer recently, so she knows it to some extent.

"What can be done, the reputation of a talented person and a beautiful woman is nothing but my sister. He is talented and learned after all. For Yuan Jin'er, what is the difference between Cao Guan and Li Pin? For Cao Guan, what is the difference between Yuan Jin'er? Jin'er is still Lu Caicai, so it probably doesn't matter."

Yuan Jin'er is younger than Nie Yunzhu, she is full of energy on weekdays, and her cheerful playfulness is the biggest reason others like her, but today she seems lazy and discouraged. Nie Yunzhu wiped her face with a towel: "Don't say that, since he chose you instead of Lu Caicai, he naturally likes you more."

"Jin'er said, I want to find someone with a family background who can raise Jin'er as a pig. Hehe, Cao Guan has no money, so I don't like it very much."

"If I really made you a pig, I'm afraid I'll be swept out of the house immediately." Nie Yunzhu patted her face, "Cao Guan is talented, and it's fine in the future high school, but he won't really be able to make Jin's work at that time. Are you raising pigs?"

"There are so many talented people in the world, what is Jiangning's number one talent in the mouths of others, is it so easy to get a high school? Besides, if the family doesn't have the money to manage, and if you only get a jinshi, you have to wait, wait, wait, etc. "Yuan Jin'er was lying there and said, and then pursed her lips and thought for a while, "Sister Yunzhu, you said, if Jin'er also redeemed herself, how about going to sell the Songhua eggs with you?"

Nie Yunzhu laughed: "Isn't it stupid?" She came over once in a while and had some conversations with Yuan Jin'er, so Yuan Jin'er also knew at this time that she had a sesame cake car, and she had been playing with Songhua eggs recently. , just haven't seen it yet.

Yuan Jin'er thought about it for a while, then smirked: "No, it's just that Hu Tao is about to get married. After she gets married, Sister Yunzhu, you will also feel lonely. It just so happens that Jin'er can also come to accompany you. That said, it must be a profitable business, and Jin'er can be counted on."

"I've been thinking about raising people as pigs all day, but now I say I want to do something. I think I'm sick and confused." Nie Yunzhu just laughed, she naturally understood that Yuan Jin'er couldn't do anything at this time, it was just a whim." How can there be a stable profitable business, I have only been groping all day, and I have lost money every day. Besides, I am afraid that it is not easy to marry, and if you want to become an old girl, Jin Er still find someone who can treat you like a pig and love you. The great talent..."

"It's quite majestic to be a female shopkeeper..." Yuan Jin'er said, and then the two talked about talents such as Cao Guan and Li Pin. In fact, there are many talents every year, and the two know a lot. Yuan Jin'er was ill and had her menstrual period at this time, and her mouth was a little bit more vicious. Nie Yunzhu was also happy to hear it, and she also talked about Ning Yi during the period.

"The head of that water tune is really good, but it's a pity that such a person is in a businessman's family, and the words were bought..."

Nie Yunzhu said softly, "You don't know that Ning Liheng, how do you know you bought it?"

Yuan Jin'er pursed her lips and smiled: "If Sister Yunzhu is interested, you can go to the front and listen to the corner. Today, at Yuan, those talented people must speak up again, and suspect that the word was bought."

That's all about Ning Yi's topic. Nie Yunzhu didn't say what he thought. Yuan Jiner just commented on the past. After a while, he got tired of talking. Nie Yunzhu came over with a cup and asked her to drink some water: "Take a rest. , it's best to get some sleep."

Yuan Jin'er hugged the quilt but didn't sleep, and there was a faint sound of a lively banquet outside. Nie Yunzhu sat beside the bed to accompany her, then carried the guqin next to her and put it on her lap, plucked a few notes, and after a while, she sang in a low voice: "Outside the pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green... Her voice was light and soft, but she sang it casually and slowly, but it gave the whole space an ethereal rhythm, as if to cover up the noise outside, Yuan Jin'er looked over here, Nie Yunzhu looked at her and smiled Laugh: "The evening wind blows the willow flute and the sound of the willow flute is remnant, and the mountains outside the sunset mountain."

"Sister Yunzhu, what kind of music is this?"

The piano sounded slowly, Nie Yunzhu smiled but did not answer, and soon after he sang: "The end of the sky, the corner of the earth, the friends are half scattered..."

This farewell song was the second song that Ning Yi gave her a year ago. Nie Yunzhu had been scrutinizing it recently. After one song was sung, the piano sounded for a long time before it stopped.

Yuan Jin'er was puzzled: "It's like "The Return of Ruan Lang", but the first sentence of the upper row should be seven characters. The singing is really nice..." She thought for a while and widened her eyes, "Could it be that Sister Yunzhu is researching a new singing method? It's just... that's a bit... um, it should be a game..."

Most of the people Yuan Jin'er came into contact with were just singers and voice craftsmen. Only Nie Yunzhu had already entered the hall, or could be called a teacher. If she wanted to change her singing style, she was qualified. Of course, it would be difficult for people to accept it, but This wasn't a public announcement anyway. But even if Yuan Jin'er heard it, it was good to hear it, but the way of singing was really too strange. I was surprised for a while, and only regarded it as a game, and then I reminisced about the artistic conception in the lyrics.

"Although it's simple, this sentence is really a good mood. Unfortunately, it's not a poem, it can only be called a short sentence. Jin'er is really envious of Yunzhu's talent."

"I didn't do it... Jin'er doesn't move around, rest well."

"Has Sister Yunzhu met someone she likes?"

"Don't think about it, you can't marry."

"Oh, who's the girl I want to come from... Well, this kind of short sentence game is also like... "

In fact, this "Farewell" also pays attention to rhyme, but it does not respect words and cards, nor is it a poem. Although it sounds good in artistic conception, it can only be called a game. When she thought so, Nie Yunzhu didn't explain much, just smiled and tucked her into the quilt. Also at this moment, footsteps sounded outside, but it was Kou Er and Hu Tao. Kou'er's expression was a little nervous, holding a piece of paper in his hand: "Miss, there is an accident. This time, Young Master Cao is afraid that he will lose again..."

Before Nie Yunzhu had come over, Kou'er served Yuan Jin'er by the bed, and the master and servant talked about many poems tonight. In terms of quantity, there are naturally the most masterpieces in Lichuan. But personally, Cao Guan performed very well tonight, and several of his best works were praised by others, while Li Pin, who went to the banquet in Puyuan, only performed moderately. I am afraid that Cao Guan's fame will be confirmed again. However, this time he ran in without a thought, and it was obvious that something went wrong. Yuan Jin'er wondered, "What's wrong?"

"There is another poem coming from Puyuan, this time everyone was frightened, the atmosphere outside is so strange..." Although this time it was not a six-ship boat, the Puyang family's poetry meeting was still called Pu on the night of the first Yuan. garden poetry.

"Puyang's family... what's wrong?" Although the goal in the future is to be raised as a pig, but after all the contact for so long, Yuan Jin'er still hopes that Cao Guan will have a high reputation. Paper.

Nie Yunzhu, who was next to him, laughed: "It seems that Mr. Li Pin and Li can't bear it anymore..." The Puyang family killed a dark horse five months ago and it was already shocking. This time, it was an ordinary night. The odd Li Pin was furious, and came up with a masterpiece to shock the crowd. This is not surprising, Li Pin's style has always been a bit slanted, but sometimes it is very surprising.

Hearing the lady say this, Hu Tao looked a little complicated, as if she had something to say or not. Kou'er shook his head desperately: "No, no, it's not Li Gongzi, it's Ning Yi and Ning Liheng, he made another syllable poem..."

"what?"

Nie Yunzhu was stunned for a while, and quickly looked at the paper. Next to him, Kou'er has already said vividly: "It's very interesting outside, I heard that Ning Yi didn't plan to go to the poetry party today, but he was seen when he was shopping, and he was invited up, a large group of people. People are still making things difficult for him..."

Nie Yunzhu looked at the words on the paper at this time, and halfway through, he could no longer hear those noises.

She had been in contact with Ning Yi for some time. They did not communicate because of their talent, but Nie Yunzhu had always heard about Ning Yi's talent. The two never mentioned that they had learned poetry or anything, and only communicated as ordinary friends, but it would be impossible to say that Nie Yunzhu had no expectations or doubts in his heart.

For her, there was another side of Ning Yi that she had never seen before.

"East wind blooms thousands of trees at night. It blows even more, the stars are like rain..."

Yuan Jin'er read it out in a low voice until the last inscription:

Su House.

Ning Yi.

Ning Liheng.
