Journey To the World of Film and Television Chapter 537

Chapter 537 The tea house opens!

After a few pleasantries, Gu Qianfan noticed that Song Yinzhang's concerned gaze was looking at the door from time to time, evading something to say goodbye to Song Yinzhang and leaving. Before leaving, he saw Zhou Ji next to him, his gaze was a little dignified, and he recognized Zhou Ji's identity.

The Imperial City Division supervised all the officials, with dark lines all over the government and the public. Zhou Ji knew that the other party had already investigated him, but what if he did the investigation?

The Taoist believer who was planning to convert Buddhism into Taoism did not step down, so there was no need to bother Zhou Ji to do it. Naturally, someone would help solve all the troubles.

Song Yinzhang's thoughts were all on Zhao Pan'er at this time. After sending Gu Qianfan away, he lifted the corner of his skirt and ran into the courtyard in a hurry. Run across the promenade to the lawn in the yard.

Zhou Ji shook his head, helped her close the door, and left unhurriedly.

Song Yinzhang, who was halfway running, suddenly felt that something was missing, turned around and saw the closed gate, and hurriedly turned around and chased it out.

Yah~

The door opened, and Zhou Ji was no longer seen outside the door. Song Yinzhang lowered his head angrily, and tapped his forehead lightly, "Fool, fool, Mr. Zhou sent you back all the way, why didn't he even say thank you."

Just as she was walking towards Zhao Pan'er's boudoir dejectedly, she heard Zhao Pan'er's sobbing voice, pretending to be calm, "Sanniang, I'm fine. Where's the introduction?"

"Yinzhang went to find Mr. Zhou to rescue the soldiers. Ms. Si Teng moved the Liyuan to the outskirts of the city. It might be too late to live with them."

Sun Sanniang's gentle and concerned voice came, "So many things happened today, you should take a good rest and don't go to the store tomorrow. There are me and Yinzhang in the store."

"Pan" Song Yinzhang wanted to say, 'Sister Pan'er, Sanniang, I'm back', but heard Zhao Pan'er say, "That's not going to happen, it's only been a few days since the reopening, if I don't go, the world will be in chaos. Don't worry. , I'm fine."

The room was quiet for a while, and Sun Sanniang's sad and aggrieved voice came, "Pan'er, are we so unworthy of your trust?"

"Not so? I just"

"Pan'er, there are some things I wanted to tell you a long time ago." Sun Sanniang interrupted Zhao Pan'er, and the grievances that had been accumulated in her heart for a long time burst out, "You are the strongest person I have ever met. You worry about everything and worry about everything. Rely on yourself, but have you ever thought about it, Yinzhang and I also have a share in this store!

When I first married into Fu's family, I also opened a restaurant. Do you think I can't stand the restaurant for a day with the introduction?

Am I just going to be the 'yes', 'right', 'that's right' and 'that's it' answerer forever?

Just follow your **** every day? "

Zhao Pan'er couldn't hold back her tears again, and the tears slipped down after rinsing, revealing a softness and fragility that she had never had before, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it.

I. I used to say, 'Yinzhang, don't feel inferior', but in fact, I am the one who looks down on me the most. Because of my humble status, I am always afraid that people will look down on me, so I just...so I just...what I want to do everything well, and I want to hold everything in my own hands.”

At the end, Zhao Pan'er was choked up sobbing.

Song Yinzhang leaned against the door, looking up at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky.

Listening to Zhao Pan'er's sobs, Song Yinzhang never thought that the "proud and confident Sister Pan'er" in his eyes would care so much about her status as a "bad family".

Song Yinzhang once heard Zhou Ji mention the word 'lack of security' in the Liyuan.

Turning around and opening the door, Song Yinzhang looked at Zhao Pan'er who was wiping away tears and pretending to be calm, and said firmly, "Sister Pan'er, don't worry, you have a good rest today, as long as Sanniang and I are in the shop."

"Introduction?" Sun Sanniang froze for a moment, recovered, hugged Zhao Pan'er's shoulders, and continued, "Yes, Pan'er, why don't you try it once, you see, if you don't go to the store tomorrow, God will will collapse."

Zhao Pan'er wiped away her tears, looked at the two of them, and said 'OK' softly.

the other side.

The star fell and fell into the city.

Last night, red flames streaked across the sky, seen from far and near, which alarmed the people of the city and attracted a lot of discussion.

Lin Lingsu guessed that this matter might have something to do with "Immortal Zhou", and became more and more fanatical about immortality. When he was ordered to enter the palace the next day, he took the opportunity to create momentum for the Taoist sect, frightened Zhao Heng with the theory of "heavenly punishment", and restarted the debate between Yi and Xia , trying to classify Buddhism into Taoism, changing Buddhist temples into temples, and changing the titles of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and Arhats into Taoist names.

Zhao Heng is in awe of the theory of ghosts and gods, and hesitates a little in his heart, but these court religious disputes have little to do with Zhou Ji and Zhao Pan'er.

And the tea house on Zhou Ji's side officially opened two days after the troupe's rehearsal.

After the pre-heating of the storytelling of "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" a few days ago, both literati, inkmen and traffickers are eagerly waiting for the follow-up "Case of Guillotine Beauty".

On the day of the opening, even the half-covered business was affected. Familiar faces such as Yuan Tuntian, Du Changfeng, and Mr. Zhuoshi, Zhao Paner and Sun Sanniang, met many.

Song Yinzhang, as the head of the troupe's musicians, often runs between Banshimian, Jiaofangsi and the teahouse Liyuan. Was rejected by Zhao Paner.

"Miss Pan'er, Sanniang, why are you sitting here? The lobby is noisy and far away from the stage. Why don't you sit in the elegant room on the second floor." Zhou Ji noticed the three people in the corner, and walked slowly to show his face. smiled.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for your kindness. We don't need it~ We are here today to learn from the scriptures, so sit in the hall and watch carefully~~" Zhao Pan'er said half-jokingly, half-seriously, with the corners of his mouth raised.

"Where is it, Miss Pan'er was joking." Zhou Ji laughed dumbly, looked up at the counter, Hongkui walked briskly across the lobby with a tray, and placed teacups and refreshments on the table.

"This is."

Zhao Paner looked at the tea set with a lid on top, a bowl in the middle, and a tray on the bottom, with novelty in his eyes.

"This is the Sancai Bowl. The cover is the sky, the entrustment is the earth, and the bowl is the person. It is for the Sancai. It comes from the meaning of the unity of heaven and man." Zhou Ji opened his mouth at the same time, and the guys running around the restaurant were also asking about the tea set. The guest explained the same thing.

"What a harmony between man and nature, this tea set alone is quite innovative."

Officials worship Taoism, and follow the example, which naturally has a deep influence inside and outside the court.

Mr. Zhuoshi stroked his beard and nodded, admiring the tea set alone.

Zhao Paner is self-taught without a teacher, and soon discovered the magical effect of tea cups.

For tea drinkers, some prefer strong tea, while others prefer light tea. The tastes are different, and it all depends on the tea master's preparation.

With such a tea set, put the tea cover in the bowl. If you want the tea soup to be thicker, you can use the tea cover to scrape gently on the water surface, so that the whole bowl of tea can be turned upside down. Scraping lightly will make the tea weak, and heavy scraping will make the tea thicker. The technical requirements are not so high.

More importantly.

The lobby is noisy and people are coming and going. A single tea bowl with a cover looks too abrupt. If there is a support and a cover, you don't have to worry about the tea bowl getting hot, and you can cover the mouth of the bowl to keep the temperature, and it looks much cleaner.

"Are all the Sancai bowls in Mr. Zhou's shop?" Zhao Pan'er lifted the tea lid and looked at the 'loose tea' inside, feeling a little relieved.

Zhou Ji smiled and said: "Of course not. If you want to drink some tea, we also have a tea doctor here to order tea, but ordering tea is too cumbersome, and you can only drink one dish per cup. Clear tea can taste five flavors, and it is more suitable for sitting and chatting for a long time. , Watching a play or listening to a book, we will arrange it only if the guest mentions it."

While speaking, a burst of crisp gongs sounded from the stage in the middle of the teahouse.

The noisy lobby gradually quieted down.

On the right side of the stage, two clerks passed under the stage side by side, and carried away the signboard with the red paper of "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness: The First Scene of the Beauty Case" away. There were ringing sounds in the lobby.

'It's started~' 'It's coming~'

Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang often listened to guests talking about "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" while half-hiding their faces, knowing that it was Zhou Ji and Si Teng's intentional storytelling to promote their teahouse.

As the characters appeared one after another, the babbling voice resounded through the teahouse, attracting applause and warm applause from time to time.

Half-hidden is run by the three of them. Now that they all come to support, it means that the store is closed. Even though Zhao Paner and Sun Sanniang have never heard the story before "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness", they are still attracted by the story of "Qin Xianglian". I even forgot that I only planned to sit for a while before going back to open my own shop.

Morning, afternoon and evening, on the opening day, there will be three performances in total.

Some guests even sat from morning to night, drank some tea and clear tea after drinking, and ate dozens of plates just for tea.

Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang had already left, and Song Yinzhang also left with them because of the work of the Jiaofang Secretary. Seeing the guests who were still unsatisfied and asking for additional performances, Zhou Ji had no choice but to go forward to appease everyone and promised them three more performances tomorrow, starting from the day after tomorrow , the theater troupe only performed at night, and mainly played storytelling during the day.

People in this era lack the means of entertainment and culture after all, otherwise Zhao Pan'er's store would not be supported by Song Yinzhang's pipa alone.

There are quite a few Goulan tiles in Bianjing, but few of them are classics like "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" that are enough to be passed down to future generations.

What's more, in addition to "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness", Zhou Ji also prepared "The Romance of the West Chamber", "The Legend of the White Snake", "The Match of the Immortals", etc., which are enough to kill all imitators.

Speaking of 'following', after three days before the opening, the business of the tea house is still full every day, even getting hotter every day.

Many tea houses and teahouses in Chatang Lane began to imitate Zhou Ji's place, and asked someone to write down the storytelling of "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" and go back to retell it. It seemed that some business was diverted, but in fact it further promoted the reputation of Tongfu Teahouse and attracted more people. New customers come to the teahouse to 'catch up'.

It takes a lot of time and energy to prepare the theater troupe. These people don't have Zhou Ji's drama, nor Si Teng's ability, so they set their sights on another new store that is grabbing business.

In the afternoon of this day, Song Yinzhang finished playing three pieces and was about to get up and return to the Jiaofang Division, but he saw Shen Ruzhuo going up to the second floor and coming to the elegant room.

Song Yinzhang had met him a few times in the Jiaofang Division, and he was not familiar with him, but when he saw him enter the door, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said, "Master Shen, Wan'an".

"Yinzhang Pipa has improved again, but it is a pity that it is less free and easy than when I first heard it in the courtyard."

Shen Ruzhuo felt Song Yinzhang's restraint and alienation towards him, so he pretended not to care, and greeted her in a gentle tone.

Hearing Shen Ruzhuo calling his own name directly, Song Yinzhang couldn't help flashing another figure in his mind, saluted with lowered eyes, and said with a bit of firmness in his weakness, "I don't know Mr. Shen well, please don't call me Mr. Shen. boudoir name."

"Tsk tsk tsk~ It's really cold and ruthless." Shen Ruzhuo shook his head, jokingly said, "It's really sad. If I knew this, why would I be so sentimental and come here to inform you."

Shen Ruzhuo said as he took out a food box from behind.

"What is this?" Song Yinzhang didn't know, so Shen Ruzhuo smiled and said, "You can see it when you look at it."

Song Yinzhang opened it, his face changed slightly, and inside the food box were four half-hidden signature fruits.

"This afternoon, there are at least four teahouses selling such fruits in Chatang Lane. I went to buy one specially for you to see." Shen Ruzhuo smiled.

"Thank you, Mr. Shen, for letting me know, Mr. Shen, for your trouble." Song Yinzhang's face was a little ugly, he forced a smile, closed the food box and said, "I still have some important matters to deal with here, so I will leave first."

Shen Ruzhuo was elegant and easy-going, stepped aside and said, "I've already hired you for half a day at Jiaofang Division, so just go and quote."

Hearing Shen Ruzhuo calling his name directly again, Song Yinzhang stopped in a hurry to leave, thinking that he had just accepted the favor of the other party, if he offended, he might not be able to leave his membership in the Jiaofang Division in the future, he hesitated to speak, and continued to go downstairs go.

Zhao Paner and Sun Sanniang were still sifting tea leaves in the back, when they saw Song Yinzhang approaching angrily, they asked in surprise, "Did you quarrel with that Shen official?"

"No." Song Yinzhang shook his head, and put the box of peach blossom fruit on the table angrily, "Look at this. Shen Ruzhuo said that at least four teahouses in Chatang Lane are selling this kind of fake products this afternoon, not only Quantity, and it only sells for a box of 100 Wen!"

"Officer Shen is very enthusiastic, and even came here to tell you."

Zhao Pan'er smiled slightly and said with great interest.

Sun Sanniang opened the food box, glanced at the peach blossom fruit inside, and frowned, "It looks like I made it."

Song Yinzhang said indignantly, "Those teahouses not only copied our fruits, but also copied our drinks. They learned all kinds of drinks in the shop. The most annoying thing is that Qingmingfang invited two Pipa girl, sit in the shop and play all day long!"

Sun Sanniang said angrily: "No wonder the business of our shop has been much worse these days than before! It turns out that we encountered a thief!"

"Don't say that, Ms. Si Teng's teahouse has just opened, and the 'Sancai Bowl' has also been copied by other teahouses?" Zhao Pan'er shook her head slightly, and said with a gloomy expression, "It's not those imitation teahouses in Chatang Lane that took everyone's business away." shop, but Miss Si Teng's tea house."
