Chapter 67 第67章 Anticipation and betting agreement 期待、赌约 If something do not pay attention also on that's all, is the attention, the idea even more are more, certain impressions, even more is profound. 有些事情若不去注意也就罢了,越是注意,想法就愈发的多起来,某些印象,也就愈发深刻。 naturally very fierce woman. 那是个很厉害的女人。 The lights flash on and off to rock, in stage music circulation, dense light dance. Gu Yanzhen looks at that side scene, was called the Su Tan'er woman probably made an appraisal to that. 灯火明灭晃动,舞台上乐声流转,氤氲轻舞。顾燕桢看着那边的景象,对那个大概是叫做苏檀儿的女人做了一个评价。 Previously inquired related Ning Liheng news, naturally then can know that he is live-in son-in-law, married into the wife's household the family/home of merchant. Had not previously had too many concepts to his wife, but at this time seemed like, within the heart had an outline gradually, this outline was quite clear, that image that because the opposite party exposed, indeed made his impression profound. 先前打听了有关宁立恒的消息,自然便能知道他是一名赘婿,入赘商贾之家。先前并未对他的妻子有过太多概念,但这时看起来,才渐渐在心中有了一个轮廓,这个轮廓相当清晰,因为对方展露出来的那种形象,也的确令他印象深刻。 At first sight, perhaps is only beautiful natural wife and husband sits the situation in there seeing a play, lady of some wealthy and prominent family wealthy and powerful families, educate, the experience are many, can have the such image and makings. However brings to the Gu Yanzhen attention is not just this point, when is this when communicates the scene with others to husband and wife. 乍看之下,或许只是一名美丽大方的妻子与相公坐在那儿看戏的情况,一些高门大户的大家闺秀,教养好,见识多的,也能有这样的形象和气质。不过引起顾燕桢注意的并非仅仅是这一点,而是这对夫妻在与其他人来往时的情景。 Comes with the person who they spoke, first chose to face, almost all was that Ning Yi wife. Su brothers that previously had saw that to have neither learning nor skill, was as for the person who other came and went, first all spoke with that wife, soon after paid attention to that husband. This Ning Liheng the day before yesterday when Literature Building also such was Su brothers solved encircling, they came first cared that Su Tan'er, fierce of this woman, wants to come then to be inferred. 过来与他们说话的人,首先选择面对的,几乎全是那宁毅的妻子。先前有见过的那不学无术的苏氏兄弟,乃至于其他来来往往的人,首先全是与那妻子说话的,随后才去注意那相公。这宁立恒前日在文墨楼头还那样为苏氏兄弟解过围,他们过来时首先在意的还是那苏檀儿,这女人的厉害,想来便可见一斑了。 Quite had the self-confidence in this aspect Gu Yanzhen regarding the clear(ly) of own judge, past many things, actually also many proved his vision. In this way of the world, the woman is fierce, is very difficult, must this fierce side reserved to the present degree, fuses flawlessly in that strong trends it seems like gentle makings, that has to make one admire. But watches that side one piece with the harmonious atmosphere, obviously is this woman is also leading all, on the one hand is maintaining attaching great importance to of existences and others, on the other hand, is giving dual attention to existence of nearby man ingeniously, does not make this person totally the set-off, the wrist/skill was really as wise as the extreme. 在这方面顾燕桢对于自己的识人之明颇有自信,以往的许多事情,其实也多少证明了他的这种眼光。在这世道上,女人要厉害,很困难,要将这种厉害的一面内敛到眼前的这种程度,将一份看来温柔的气质在那强势间融合得天衣无缝,那就更是不得不令人佩服。而看着那边一片和乐融融的气氛,显然也是这个女人在主导着一切,一方面保持着本身的存在与旁人的重视,另一方面,也巧妙地兼顾着身边男人的存在,不让这人完全成为陪衬,手腕实在是高明到极点了。 This is a woman...... Gu Yanzhen is thinking these. If such a man, becomes the own opponent, perhaps obtained the Yunzhu heart, oneself really has to be sincerely convinced, but on the other hand, man of such domineering and outstanding female nearby that set-off...... 这是个女人……顾燕桢想着这些。假如是这样一个男人,成为自己的对手,取得了云竹的芳心,自己或许就真是不得不心服口服,可相对来说,这样强势与优秀的女子身边那个陪衬的男人…… He not possible to pay attention at this matter too for a long time, often spoke with the person in side, applauds and so on. The first round of performance, four competition leaders is very serious, is displays the oneself strong point and characteristics performance. The Luo Miaomiao color silk dance is riotous, the dance of Yuan Jin'er is nimble and resourceful, the Feng Xiaojing hundred birds toward the phoenix dance as before solemn atmosphere, to finally Qilan a ancient customs dance that reappears Confucius and father asks, the black ink clothes wide sleeve, the tone is refined, the ease dance comes, really has the black ink rhyme to keep the feeling of fragrance, that scholarly aura of indeed on her displays the peak. 他也不可能在这事上留心太久,不时的与旁边的人说说话,鼓鼓掌之类的。第一轮的演出,四大行首都很本分,皆是发挥自己长处与特色的表演。骆渺渺的彩绸舞缤纷瑰丽,元锦儿的舞蹈灵动活泼,冯小静的百鸟朝凤舞依旧端庄大气,到最后绮兰一曲重现孔子与老子问道的古风舞蹈,墨裳宽袖,气韵脱俗,悠然舞来,真有墨韵留香之感,也正是将她身上的那股书卷气息发挥到最高点。 In the middle of four people, Gu Yanzhen actually by no means likes Luo Miaomiao, her dance is riotous, can the first impulse, but the background is in fact insufficient, cannot compare other three people of calm. Initially chose her, in fact also because of Yunzhu that matter, this multi-colored dance style actually also good composing a poem first leg of an eight-legged essay, him is the attitude of being perfunctory. This time dances, wanted to write to write a word, but why does not know, looked at the Ning Yi that side, finally has not written, but called side to be responsible for registering fresh flower number that person, bought 500 to give that Luo Miaomiao. 四人当中,顾燕桢其实并不是非常喜欢骆渺渺,她的歌舞缤纷瑰丽,很能给人第一眼的冲击力,但实际上底蕴不足,比不上其余三人的从容。当初选择她,实际上也是因为云竹的那事,这种五彩缤纷的舞蹈风格其实也好写诗破题,在他来说不过是敷衍的态度。这次舞蹈完毕,原本想要挥笔写一首词,但不知道为什么,看了看宁毅的那边,最终还是没有写,而是叫了旁边负责登记鲜花朵数那人,买了五百朵给那骆渺渺。 500 are also 520 money, to him was also large one paid wages, because has not written the poetry, therefore gave simply all of a sudden. Soon after is the time of thank-you gift, some girls perform the side show, when the above read „Gu Yanzhen Young Master Gu delivered Miaomiao/remote(ly) everyone fresh flower 500”, he then also with the surrounding person submissively says some pleasantries, another side, Su Tan'er also waved to call the person, the digit of that preserved egg constantly renovated on the stage Damu (great wood) sign, over 100 will be notified loudly, soon after then heard that sound. 五百朵也就是五百两银子,对他来说也算是颇大的一笔开支了,不过由于没写诗词,于是干脆一下子给了。不久之后是谢礼的时间,有些姑娘上去做余兴表演,上方念出“顾燕桢顾公子送渺渺大家鲜花五百朵”时,他便也与周围人拱手说些客套话,另一边,苏檀儿似也挥手叫了人,那松花的数字在舞台后方的大木牌上不断翻新,一百朵以上的都会被大声通报出来,随后便听得那个声音。 „Ning Liheng Young Master Ning delivers Qilan everyone fresh flower 2000!” “宁立恒宁公子送予绮兰大家鲜花两千朵！” This sound comes out, middle of crowd is a sound wave, 2000 flowers, this truly already was makes big handiwork that one was flabbergasted, usually this grade of supporter after when three dances will all finish, acted. Ning Liheng this name listens to that somewhat mystically „1st talent”, having the talent is also lavish, in any event enough becomes the temporary subject, Gu Yanzhen actually understands that this is that woman handiwork, oneself for husband that marries into the wife's household makes this grade of matter on the such conference site, under this female gentle semblance, but also is really domineering and self-confident much. 这声音出来,人群中便又是一阵声浪,两千朵花,这确实已经是令人咋舌的大手笔了,通常来说这等支持者都会等到三场舞蹈皆毕之后才出手。宁立恒这个名字听来那有些神秘的“第一才子”,有才又阔气,无论如何都足够成为一时的谈资,顾燕桢却明白这是那女人的手笔,在这样的会场上为了自己入赘的相公做出这等事,这女子温婉外表下,还真是强势与自信得可怕。 He remembers that Century Egg matter, oneself also invests only 120 now, compared at present this, the matter that Ning Liheng handles...... is really the child's play laughably. 他想起那松花蛋的事情,自己如今也不过投入区区百两不到,与眼前这一幕相比,那个宁立恒做的事情……真是儿戏得可笑。 Just like this is thinking, Shen Miao collected from side, similarly looked at the past toward that side: „Really is big handiwork...... Yanzhen just now looked that side already looked for a long time, is it possible that to that Ning Yi scholarship, was really interested? If that is right, at the tonight's Queen of Flowers feast, is really the fierce struggle between two evenly matched opponents, had the good play to look.” 正如此想着,沈邈从旁边凑了过来,同样往那边望过去:“真是大手笔……燕桢方才看那边已经看了许久,莫非对那宁毅的才学,真是感兴趣起来了？若是如此,今晚的花魁宴上,真是龙争虎斗,有好戏看了。” Gu Yanzhen silent for a long time, smiled: „Brother Zishan may know, is that Yunzhu back man, actually who?” 顾燕桢沉默半晌,笑了起来:“子山兄可知,那云竹背后的男子,究竟是何人？” „Doesn't check...... Uh?” Shen Miao responded, „is it possible that was that...... Ning Yi?” “不是查不……呃？”沈邈反应过来,“莫非便是那……宁毅？” „Heh, is he.” “呵,便是他。” „He...... his however live-in son-in-law status.” “他……他可是赘婿身份。” The Gu Yanzhen faint smile is silent, Shen Miao smiled, shakes the head. 顾燕桢似笑非笑地沉默着,沈邈笑了起来,摇摇头。 „Then, if exposed this matter, how could it not be can the guarding the threshing floor good play? How doesn't know the Yanzhen in the heart idea?” “如此一来,若是将此事情揭发出来,岂非可以看场好戏？不知燕桢心中想法如何？” Gu Yanzhen looks at him a while, sighs finally: „Brother Zishan, if exposed this matter, how then can?” 顾燕桢看着他好一阵子,才终于叹了一口气:“子山兄,若将此事揭发,接下来会如何？” „Then to husband and wife in the heart, light then has the obstruction, if heavy, that domineering merchant wife will look for the Young Lady Yunzhu gate, when the time comes...... Uh, looked Yanzhen seems does not hope, wants to come or have the idea of showing tender affection, the so open-minded heart, making one admire.” “那对夫妻心中,轻则产生芥蒂,若重,想必那强势的商人妻子会找上云竹姑娘的门去,到时候……呃,看燕桢似有不愿,想来还是有怜香惜玉的想法,如此豁达心胸,令人佩服。” Gu Yanzhen smiles: „Is open about the facts Brother Zishan, the reason is not such but actually. Brother Zishan said right, light, then has the obstruction, heavy looks for the Yunzhu main house gate to create a disturbance, but even so, even if really makes to is heavily engaged finally, your I or watched a play. But Brother Zishan you said, I then did obtain that Yunzhu?” 顾燕桢笑笑:“不瞒子山兄,原因倒并非如此。子山兄说得都对,轻则产生芥蒂,重则找上云竹家门去打闹一场,可即便如此,哪怕真闹到最后不可开交,你我或是看了一场戏。可子山兄你说,如此我便得到那云竹了么？” „Uh......” “呃……” „For important matter, not bothers about trifles, our generation handles affairs, when is not puzzled for the minor details, faces directly the conscience. This grade of matter, even under doing, I cannot obtain anything in the end, spreads on the contrary, is despised by the people. I disdain......” “为大事者,不拘小节,我辈行事,当不为细枝末节所惑,直面本心。这等事情,即便做下,到头来我也得不到任何东西,反倒传扬出去,为人诟病。吾不屑为之……” Although the words are full of the arrogance, but his time tone unexpectedly is amiable, Shen Miao ponders, listens to reason submissively. Gu Yanzhen leads away the topic with a smile, looks the dance to that stage, discussed that the lights were blurred, actually looked at that Shen Miao. 话语虽饱含傲气,但他此时语气倒是谦和,沈邈沉思一番,拱手受教。顾燕桢笑着引开话题,望向那台上歌舞,议论一番,灯火迷离间,倒也望了望那沈邈。 Shen Zishan, one common thing, Scholar(egghead) spirit, hard to bring about important matter...... 沈子山,也不过一介俗物,书生意气,难成大事…… „2000, big handiwork.” “两千朵,大手笔啊。” When the stage that person said Ning Liheng to deliver 2000, Ning Yi is also somewhat funnily shakes the head, the people discussed that during exhibited one not to have the attitude of relations with me, really knew in any case his person were not many. inclined the head over, Puyang Yi is coming from that side submissively, exhibits a thanking for a kindness attitude. 台上那人说出宁立恒送两千朵时,宁毅也是有些好笑地摇了摇头,众人议论之中摆出一副跟我没关系的态度,反正真认识他的人也不多。只是偏过头去,濮阳逸正从那边拱手过来,摆出一副承情的态度。 „Concubine to are not many, but she who poetry unexpectedly understands gives the husband face, Concubine then gives her money, matter was so.” “妾身对诗文倒是懂的不多,只是她给相公面子,妾身便给她银子,事情便是如此了。” Su Tan'er lowers the head, the words are gentle, clever (child) is smiling, Ning Yi naturally knows why reason actually is, at this time Haha several, husband and wife two this time are impossible to know that one side of the conference site has a fellow named Gu Yanzhen to stare here is watching the sound. But one side of the stage, hears these 2000 flower news, Yuan Jin'er was also faint gawked staring, stares angrily, soon after looked for Nie Yunzhu to complain. 苏檀儿低着头,话语温婉恬淡,乖巧地笑着,宁毅自然知道理由到底是为何的,此时哈哈几句,夫妻俩此时倒不可能知道会场一侧有个叫顾燕桢的家伙正盯着这边看动静。而在舞台一侧,听得这两千朵花的消息,元锦儿也是微微愣了愣,气鼓鼓地瞪起了眼睛,随后找聂云竹告状。 „Sister Yunzhu, he bullies the person!” “云竹姐,他欺负人！” „Heh, obviously is the flower that his wife gives, what matter closes his.” “呵,明明是他娘子送的花,关他何事。” „I no matter, depended to have money to bully the person...... not to help sell Century Egg later.” Lives a while sulks, drew Su Tan'er to run toward the room that changing clothes to dress up, „Sister Yunzhu, I must dress up again, the later dance jumped well, saved the face.” “我才不管呢,仗着有钱欺负人……待会不帮忙卖松花蛋了。”生一会儿闷气,又拉了苏檀儿往更衣打扮的房间跑,“云竹姐,我要再打扮一下,待会的舞跳得好一些,挽回颜面。” Although in the heart did not plan to struggle that Queen of Flowers, but the face was the important matter, wants to fight over a struggle. 虽然心中不打算争那花魁了,可面子是大事,还是要争一争的。 However, before after all had not planned to struggle that Queen of Flowers, the discharged performance is also primarily the duty, at this time then calculates again earnestly, the final result does not have many fluid. The competition continues to conduct, the dance is magnificent, different-styled, to last round finished, a dance of Qilan named book mountain inkstone outshines other women participants ——, although behind has Puyang Family to be the backing, but Puyang Family most speaks the reputation now, Qilan the dance obvious under oversized Kungfu / effort. After this, Puyang Yi also offers 15,000 fresh flowers finally justifiablily, in the stage delivers the Queen of Flowers seat white clothing floating female of this. 不过,之前毕竟是没打算争那花魁,排出的表演也以本分为主,此时便算再认真,最后的结果却也没有多少可改变的。比试持续进行,歌舞瑰丽,风格各异,到得最后一轮结束,绮兰一曲名为书山墨海的歌舞技压群芳——虽然背后有濮阳家做后盾,但濮阳家如今最讲名声,绮兰的这曲歌舞明显下过大功夫。这曲之后,濮阳逸也终于名正言顺地送上一万五千朵鲜花,将这名在舞台上白衣飘飘的女子送上花魁位子。 Some people such as Su Tan'er have actually expected this result generally, but Puyang Family slow two years did this matter, speak the achievement of discretion criterion extremely, can expect, basically will not have the too big opinion. The tonight's dance is also attractive, although was slightly shorter than couple of days ago time, but a also has grand Queen of Flowers feast took the aftertaste after that this banquet was the Queen of Flowers post-game convention, was managed by Sir Prefectural Magistrate, since four competition leaders will have been invited along, rewards about three days to have the people of many support to the Queen of Flowers competition, four competition leaders will have prepared the careful dance to perform above, the indanthrene business circle sits together, often becomes a favorite story after that. 有的人其实早已如苏檀儿一般料到这结果,不过濮阳家缓了两年才做这事,也算是极讲分寸尺度的作为,能料到的,基本上也不会有太大的意见。今晚的歌舞也是好看,虽然比前两天的时间稍短,但此后还有一场盛大的花魁宴作为余韵,这场宴席乃是花魁赛后的惯例,由知府大人主持,四大行首作陪,酬谢近三日以来对花魁大赛有过诸多支持的众人,四大行首们也会准备精心的舞蹈在其上表演,士林商界坐在一起,此后也往往传为佳话。 Gu Yanzhen the below consciousness is seeking for Nie Yunzhu in the evening is, but had not found, when until feasts with that Shen Miao together, saw a form in side accidentally of that main hall, that form from head to toe servant dresses up, is mixes in the below person probably, hides the tree afterimage outside palace is anticipating anything. Is extremely familiar with this form, Gu Yanzhen also then recognized the opposite party. 顾燕桢一个晚上都在下意识地寻找着聂云竹的所在,但并没有找到,直到与那沈邈一同赴宴之时,才在那厅堂的侧面无意间看见了一道身影,那身影一身仆役装扮,大概是混在下人之中,躲在殿外的树后像是在期待着一些什么。对这身影太过熟悉,顾燕桢也便一眼将对方认了出来。 After entering the banquet, he understands what suddenly that form anticipates outside is anything. 进入宴席之后,他才陡然明白那道身影等在外面期待的是什么。 „Cannot think that...... Young Lady Yunzhu such then achieved here to come the business unexpectedly quickly......” “想不到……云竹姑娘竟这么快便将生意做到这里来了……” Shen Miao faint sighed, in this Queen of Flowers feast, each table of center, placed removed Century Egg of shell, in this period the pattern seemed to be, glittering and translucent carving. These two months, although the Century Egg business continually is still developing, but that side Nie Yunzhu continuously low-key, asking some people to help, but besides satisfying to supply each Alehouse, then without many new movement, it seems like starting from this evening, her finally already prepared to the business do. 沈邈微微感叹,在这花魁宴中,原来每一桌中央,都摆放了一些剥掉了壳的松花蛋,期间花纹宛然,晶莹剔透。这两个月来,虽然松花蛋的生意还在不断拓开,但聂云竹那边一直低调,请了些人帮忙,但除了满足供应各个酒楼之外,便没有多少新的动作,看来从这个晚上开始,她终于已经准备好要将生意做开了。 That woman, if must come above this banquet before, at least can be an honored guest, even if not struggle the Queen of Flowers manner to be low-key, in fact still has the feeling of many things around a center. But now for this grade of thing such as servant general hiding in outside, looks at inside people lively banquet scene unexpectedly, was anticipating this grade of small-scale business...... does not know now has to see me...... 那个女人,若在以前要来这宴席之上,至少都会是上宾,就算不争花魁为人低调,实际上也都有众星捧月的感觉。而如今竟为了这等东西如仆役一般的躲在外面,看着里面的众人觥筹交错,期待着这等小生意……倒不知道现在有没有看见我…… Suddenly remembers now the afternoon matter. He was not careful regarding that Century Egg, less than 120 business, it seems like boring. But sees the facial expression of that anticipation at this time, unexpectedly somewhat cannot help laughing, this was really skillful, does not know that she spends such to complete the beginning today vigorously, the anticipation of being filled with joy, tomorrow will then do for others married the clothes, what kind of feeling can be. 忽然又想起今天下午的事情。他对于那松花蛋原就不怎么上心,不到一百两的生意,看来无聊。可此时见到那期待的神情,倒是有些哑然失笑,这还真是巧了,不知她今天费了这么大力才做好开端,满心欢喜的期待,明天便为他人做了嫁衣裳,会是一种怎样的感觉。 My Gu Yanzhen does not care about this pitiful small retaliation...... he to tell oneself. However real such bumps into skillfully, will find it interesting. 我顾燕桢不在乎这种可怜的小报复……他如此告诉自己。不过真这么巧地碰上,还是会觉得有趣。 Therefore he said with a smile to Shen Miao: „This thing is it seems like interesting, actually the working procedure is not necessarily complex, now, I am also willing to bet 12 money with Brother Zishan several months later, does not have/leave half a month, in the market must have this Century Egg replica to appear, she took the big effort, feared that finally also does to marry...... the market for others also like the battlefield, is not that simple.” 于是他对沈邈笑道:“这东西看来有趣,其实工序未必有多么复杂,如今也过了几个月了,我愿与子山兄赌十两银子,不出半月,市场上必有此松花蛋的仿制品出现,她费了大力气,怕最后也是为他人做嫁……商场亦如战场,不是那么简单的。” Theoretically this betting agreement must win only need wait till tomorrow, if defeats, then needs for half a month the proof of time inevitably, two people chatted to take a seat, soon after has not then put this matter in the heart. However, as if had some to exist in the darkness before has choked to death this view for a long time, merely after the quarter of an hour, Gu Yanzhen then somewhat discovered gloomy, he lost these 12 money ahead of time...... 理论上来说这个赌约要胜只需等到明天,若要败,则必然需要半个月时间的证明,两人谈笑落座,随后便未将此事放于心头。不过,仿佛在冥冥中有某个存在在许久以前早已掐死了这一说法,仅仅一刻钟后,顾燕桢便有些阴沉地发现,他提前输掉了这十两银子……
