Chapter 206 第206章 According to responsibility 依荷 The time crossed the lunar calendar in May/five months, three hottest periods of summer also already arrived. In June intense summer heat, hot, knew in the sound, the high sun seems like must distil off the heat wave in the streets, under the eaves tree's shadow, dog is sticking out one's tongue to lie there, the vision is looking at the scene between tunnels, feels some coolness, when has occasionally the carriages and horses roll by, raises the intermittent dust, immediately is peaceful in the middle of that heat waves. 时间过了农历五月,三伏天也已经到了。六月酷暑,烈日炎炎,知了声中,高高的日头像是要在街道间蒸出热浪来,屋檐树影下,狗儿吐着舌头趴在那儿,目光望着巷道间的景象,感受些许的阴凉,偶有车马驶过时,扬起阵阵灰尘,随即安静于那片热浪当中。 The such weather, can not go out was also generally insufficient to be under the hot sun to take to the streets to endure hardships, a business of each family merchant shop therefore was also lonelier, only has these position good teahouses to be full daily, entered in the teahouse, the coolness that 0.1 pot cold tea, record/native place the plain wooden ceiling as well as big tree sprinkled, listening to the person to explain the Chinese classics, is eating the dessert, then can also well on a day. Naturally, if is really the wealthy family, will also leave Hangzhou City mostly, industry within do not live in the last days to the coolness of nearby ravine, the summer vacation goes. 这样的天气,能够不出门的大抵也都不至于顶着烈日上街遭罪了,一家家商户店铺的生意也因此冷清许多,唯有那些位置较好的茶楼日日都能满座,进了茶楼之中,点一壶凉茶,籍着古朴的木楼以及门外大树洒下的阴凉,听人说书,吃着点心,便也能好好地过上一天。当然,若真是豪门富户,多半也会离了杭州城,到附近山间的阴凉别业间住上一段日子,避暑去也。 Although Hangzhou place does not have the Jiangning Qinhuai River great reputation, but transports/fortunes Heyi Road greatly, Yangzhou, Suzhou and Hangzhou are the place of renowned fireworks, the brothel are also numerous. When the night, the city lights extend, in everywhere brocade building Xiuyuan music and song graceful dance. Forms compared with this summer warmer being overwhelmed with emotion atmosphere, naturally, in the daytime this grade of situation is could not see, bustled about late females or is resting, or to afternoon, sat the colorful butterfly that has a look at to dance in the air in the courtyard shade, the expressing feelings self-inflicted injury...... 杭州一地虽然没有江宁秦淮河的盛名,但大运河一路,扬州、苏州、杭州也都是远近闻名的烟花之地,青楼众多。每到夜里,城市灯火延绵,一处处锦楼绣院中笙歌曼舞。形成比这夏日更为热烈的销魂氛围,当然,白日里这等情形自是见不到的,忙碌了一晚的女子们或在休憩,或是堪堪到了下午,坐在院落阴凉处看看飞舞的彩蝶,寄情自伤…… Having several places is slightly more different. 只有几处地方稍稍不同一些。 Situated in the city northwest one side, near „Yi Lily Garden that” the water occupies, will be in the daytime will also open the door, Yi Lily Garden will not be big, but the geographical position will be very good, then in the intense summer heat summer, in the daytime will have the cool breeze to blow, inside or outside old camphor tree copal, green wooden dense, will be quite cool. Usually in seems like, here seems like a teahouse, in fact, unexpectedly several place of female together housing took off/escaped brothel body. 位于城市西北一侧,有一处临水而居的“依荷园”,是白日里也会开门的,依荷园不大,但地理位置很不错,便是在酷暑夏日,白日里也有凉风吹来,院内院外老樟古柏,绿木森森,颇为阴凉。平日里看起来,这里像是一间茶室,实际上,倒是几名脱了青楼身籍的女子一同居住之处。 In these brothel females, is the head named Ding Wanjun, once in Hangzhou, had the name of Queen of Flowers for a while, afterward took off/escaped record/native place Shentui, lives in this , the common en guest never forgets, comes the patronage, she to the guest is also nitpicking, one day see above one person, judges tea at most, spoke. 这几名青楼女子之中,为首的名叫丁宛君,曾经在杭州之中,一时也有花魁之名,后来脱籍身退,居住于此,也常有恩客念念不忘的,过来光顾,她对客人也是挑剔,一日顶多见上一人,品品茶,说说话。 Escaped record/native place to also several females afterward one after another, lives with her in this together, here unexpectedly was handled present this it seems like pure institute gradually, whenever the intense summer heat cold winter, business unexpectedly is even more good, in the summer several teahouses are cool, full garden knew the sound to accompany the intermittent string and woodwind instruments, it is said can make the person mind peaceful especially. 到后来也有几名女子相继脱籍,与她一同居住于此,这里倒是渐渐被打理成了如今这番看来清净之所,每当酷暑寒冬,生意倒是愈发好起来,夏日里几间茶室阴凉,满园的知了之声伴着阵阵丝竹,据说格外能让人心神安静。 Long Boyuan usually inside likes here sitting, naturally, does not have the place anytime. His actually likes this feeling, occasionally kept off the frame, is not angry, after all looks like in he himself, between he and Ding Wanjun, is friendship, the opposite party is involuntary, must deal with other people, he also understands. 龙伯渊平日里边喜欢到这边来坐坐,当然,不是随时都有地方。他倒也喜欢这种感觉,偶尔被挡了架,也不生气,毕竟在他自己看来,他与丁宛君之间,算是君子之交,对方身不由己,要应付其他的一些人,他也明白。 In Ding Wanjun...... among the friend, his status cannot be regarded high, naturally cannot be regarded lowly. He is Xingshou of Hangzhou textile business guild. The Long Family generation peddler, but this generation several studied to read well, he and Younger Brother Long Bofen in some poetry book together talent, but latter came home the parents saying that you two must have one to receive the family property, he then received. 在丁宛君的……朋友当中,他的身份算不得最高的,当然也算不得低。他是杭州布商行会的行首。龙家世代行商,但这一代出了几个念书念得不错的,他与弟弟龙伯奋于诗书一道都有些天分,但后来家中父母说你们两个总得有一个接下家业啊,他便接下了。 Now he and Younger Brother has passed the 30 year-old, Long Bofen had the successful candidate in the imperial provincial examination status, made up the idle duty of writing pole in the Hangzhou Government alley, does not have the big future, but expresses feelings the poetry scenery, although participates in this and that poetry get-together every day, actually also therefore became a Hangzhou literary world riches and honor idler, knew many people, therefore can also become a Long Family big backer. When he business in family/home makes get rich, indeed high spirited and vigorous, as a result of childhood also show off literary skills after a period of time, he with the merchant of general filthy rich has the entirely different makings, others said that he is a scholarly businessman, perhaps is also therefore, he can be acquainted with Ding Wanjun, subsequently becomes the good friend. 如今他与弟弟都已过了而立之年,龙伯奋有个举人身份,在杭州府衙补了个弄笔杆子的闲职,没有大的前途,但寄情诗文山水,虽然每日只是与人参与这样那样的诗词聚会,却也因此成了杭州文坛的一名富贵闲人,认识了不少人,于是也能成为龙家的一大靠山。他则将家中的生意做得风生水起,正是意气风发之时,由于小时候也舞文弄墨过一段时间,他与一般满身铜臭的商人有着截然不同的气质,旁人都说他是儒商,或许也是因此,他才能与丁宛君相识,继而成为好友。 The Yi Lily Garden position is extremely good, if Ding Wanjun and the others did not have the backstage, perhaps here was then occupied by the person of coveting early, he should also be one of the backstages, once then several some people wanted to compel Ding Wanjun to sell out this place, he acts to help speak, heard that also has compared with his position higher person acts to speak. 依荷园的位置极佳,若丁宛君等人毫无后台,恐怕这里老早便被觊觎之人占去,他应该也算是后台之一,曾经便有几次有人想要逼着丁宛君将此地卖掉,他出面帮忙说过话,听说也有比他身份地位更高之人出面说话的。 Ding Wanjun is the long sleeves help one dance beautifully female, the relations quite a lot, he did not mind, the 40-year-old age, comes, woman who wants to dally with, what has played, what now he likes is opposite party disposition noble and pure side, occasionally sits together drinks cup of tea, spoke several words, the does not say words are also good, are insufficient ***, related to ***, the opposite party speaks before him is also unscrupulous. He likes this, if really gangs up in the same place, he will be weary on the contrary. 丁宛君是个长袖善舞的女子,关系颇多,他不介意,40岁的年纪,一路过来,想玩的女人,什么样的都玩过了,如今他喜欢的是对方心性高洁的一面,偶尔坐在一起喝杯茶,说几句话,不说话也行,不至于***,涉及***,对方在他面前说起话来也是肆无忌惮。他喜欢这样,若真是勾搭在一起,他反倒会厌倦了。 Being insufficient to think that the opposite party disposition then should not be the brothel female nobly and purely, or should not with this and that man. During one's lifetime, many times are involuntary, struggle, have the charitable disposition also on that's all, his youth read the saints and sages book, afterward did business, has done many involuntary things, therefore thought that the opposite party and oneself also had the similarity, had is not willing, feeling that actually has to make, therefore had to love tenderly. 不至于觉得对方心性高洁便不该为青楼女子,或者不该与这样那样的男人来说。人生在世,许多时候身不由己,一路挣扎,心存善念也就罢了,他少时读圣贤书,后来经商,也干过不少身不由己的事情,因此觉得对方与自己也有相似之处,都有不甘愿,却不得不去做的感觉,故而心生怜爱。 As a rule, he will not come to here the matter belt/bring outside teahouse, is a person comes, to sit then goes back in the morning. Naturally today is somewhat different, in this room except for him with playing a qin Ding Wanjun, also has another man and he sits relatively, this person is also area Su and Han big textile business, named Fang Min, the opposite party is this Yi Lily Garden Bai Qianqian Young lady Bai good friend, today happen to meets, the opposite party intends to be intimate with, comes to chat the things in some business with him, he then also treats with courtesy, in the surface naturally cannot display what impatient feeling. 通常来说,他不会将茶室之外的事情带到这里来,都是一个人来,坐上半天便回去。当然今天有些不一样,这房间里除了他与正在抚琴的丁宛君,还有另外一名男子与他相对坐着,这人也是苏杭一带的大布商,名叫方敏,对方是这依荷园白芊芊白姑娘的好朋友,今天正好遇见了,对方有意亲近,过来与他聊些生意上的事情,他便也应酬一番,表面上自然不会表现出什么不耐烦的感觉。 „...... The north goes to war, affects unexpectedly to be not big in your me, but area the southwest Fang La really makes is also fierce, recently my Fang Family also had a batch of cloth to be robbed, this business however was getting more and more difficult to do......” “……说起来,北方打仗,于你我影响倒是不算大,只是西南一带方腊闹得也实在厉害,最近我方家又有一批布料被劫,这生意可是越来越难做了……” „That side Fang La, although makes, but I looked also steadily, heard that Imperial Court has sent Tong Guan Sir Tong to command troops to go south, this time must exterminate Fang La thoroughly.” “方腊那边,虽然闹起来,但我看也长不了,听说朝廷已派童贯童大人率兵南下,这次必然是要将方腊彻底剿灭了。” „Is only I felt, among north Jin and Liao hits, my Wu Dynasty must certainly dispatch troops to go north, at this time makes General Tong go south, actually also has who can go north to cut down Liao (distant)? Always the inadequate double thread makes war.” “只是我觉得,北方金辽之间打起来,我武朝肯定也是要发兵北上的,此时却让童将军南下,却还有谁能北上伐辽？总不成双线开战。” „Heh, how this matter your I knew, the Imperial Court matter, has in Imperial Court the person to be worried, I and others completed own business also then that's all......” “呵,这事情你我又如何得知,朝廷的事,自有朝廷中人担心,我等做好自己的生意也便罢了……” The also without too many friendship with Fang Min, nothing but was said that some present everyone in chatting idle talk nothing more, chat one, that Fang Min mentioned other things. 与方敏之间并没有太多的交情,无非是说些如今大家都在聊的闲话而已,如此聊得一阵,那方敏说起些其它事情。 „...... Must discuss, Su(zhou) Embroidery Hang(zhou) Embroidery, is one, although that Jiangning textile industry is also developed, usually in north on business is in the majority. This that Su Family female unexpectedly went south to do business, has however visited you?” “……要论起来,苏绣杭绣,原为一家,那江宁布业虽然也是发达,平日里倒以北上的生意居多。这次那名苏家的女子倒是南下来做生意了,可是拜访过你了吧？” „Um, has then seen in May/five months, how does Mister Fang feel?” At this time in the big city each business already had the own guild, must come Hangzhou to do the textile business business, in any event, must go to that side Xingshou to report, therefore opposite party's first pays a call, or was Long Boyuan. “嗯,五月间便已见过了,方公觉得如何？”这时候大城市里各个生意都已经有了自己的行会,要来杭州做布商生意,无论如何,一定是要去行首那边报备的,因此对方第一个拜会的,或者就是龙伯渊了。 „Heh, but said, pours does not have any feeling. The female looks like very serious, recently, actually is low-key, courtesy quite entire. A while ago pays a call I, I know some rookies came. This Su Family area Jiangning is also big textile business, Boyuan should be is clear about in her family/home the details?” “呵,只是说说,倒没有什么感觉。那女子看来挺本分的,最近一段时间,倒也低调,礼数颇全。前段时间拜会我,我才知道又有新人进来。这苏家在江宁一带也是大布商,伯渊该是清楚她家中底细的吧？” „Knows something, Jiangning textile industry is headed by Wū Family, Su Family is listed second, we did not communicate with that side densely, to this Su Tan'er, I was not very clear, but heard in his family/home the elder once is a fierce character, but fears that now already was also old.” “只是略知一二,江宁布业以乌家为首,苏家暂居第二,我们与那边来往不密,对这苏檀儿,我也不是很清楚,只是听说他家中长辈曾经是个厉害人物,不过现在怕也已经老了。” „Su Family had a shop here, but does to produce goods in several small-scale business, on can not what floor. However this time comes, judges by what he does it, I think that she wants an achievement. That side Yang Datou, her newly-opened shop, the business unexpectedly has nothing temporarily, but heard that she moved to several trees in the past, the big fee/spent is flustered, gives back to nearby passer-by to prepare the dark plum tea to relieve thirst free, does not raise sells the arrange/cloth, although is only the minor matter, but I felt, she attempts large.” “苏家远本就在这边有个店铺,但不过是在几项小生意上做出货,上不得什么台面。不过她此次过来,观其行之,我想她是欲有一番作为。羊坝头那边,她新开的店铺,生意暂时倒是没什么,只是听说她移了几棵树过去,大费周章,还给附近过路行人免费准备酸梅茶解渴,丝毫不提卖布,虽然只是小事,但我觉得,她所图颇大。” „Hehe, since comes Hangzhou peddler, paid a call your I, naturally want an achievement, she has not acted, is not normal. unexpectedly I look at Mister Fang, seems quite interested to this Su Family Young Lady......” “呵呵,既然来杭州行商,又拜会了你我,自然想要有一番作为,她没有动作,才不正常。倒是我看方公,似乎对这苏家小姐颇有兴趣嘛……” Fang Min year about 50, therefore the opposite party called him for Mister Fang, at this time unexpectedly laughed: „Haha, but remembers suddenly, spoke thoughtlessly. Jiangning textile art, unlike my Su and Han, she wants to develop the aspect, is not one day two days of things, but her female comes, making people think interesting that's all. Oh, heard that she and Lou Family somewhat relate......” 方敏年近五十,因此对方称呼他为方公,此时倒是大笑起来:“哈哈,只是忽然想起,随口说说。江宁布艺,与我苏杭不同,她想要开拓局面,也不是一天两天的事情,只是她一个女子过来,让人觉得有趣罢了。哦,听说她与楼家有些关系……” Long Boyuan nods: „This matter my unexpectedly knows, heard when the Su Family people go south, happen to met with Lou Family Young Lady, same number of lines day. These two...... two people conditions, is somewhat similar, wants to come is also therefore quite gets along well. Since Mister Fang saw Su Family Young Lady, must also see that Su Family Young Master, hearing actually is Scholar(egghead), is somewhat similar to Lou Family Young Master.” 龙伯渊点点头:“此事我倒是知道,听说苏家众人南下之时,正好与楼家小姐遇上,同行数日。这两人……两人的境况,也有些类似,想来也是因此颇为投契。方公既然见了苏家小姐,应当也见了那苏家姑爷了吧,听说倒也是一名书生,与楼家姑爷有些相似。” „Um, is quite low-key, asked that his poetry how, he also shirks several, was not afterward good to talk, helping the person almost slightly cross. That Lou Family Young Master has seen several times, only then some different, I thought that he as if quite wants to direct the person to pour goal, is only the scholarship is insufficient, others also always think otherwise to him......” “嗯,颇为低调,问他诗文如何,他也只是推脱几句,后来便不好搭话,让人几乎略过了。那楼家姑爷见过几次,只有些许不同,我看他似乎还是颇想引人注目的,只是才学不够,旁人也总是对他不以为然……” Long Boyuan raised the eyebrow: „Can abandon the man who the family/home marries into the wife's household, there is anything to say......” 龙伯渊挑了挑眉:“能弃家入赘的男人,又有什么好说的……” He to this matter, somewhat thinks otherwise, is disinclined to raise, Fang Min also on didn't say. Also chatted one, Fang Min said goodbye to leave, Long Boyuan sat in the window drinks tea, the simple and beautiful female named Ding Wanjun caressed one, just now came to sit down, poured tea. 他对此事,有些不以为然,懒得提起,方敏也就不说了。又聊了一阵,方敏告辞离开,龙伯渊坐在窗边喝茶,名叫丁宛君的清丽女子抚了一曲,方才过来坐下,重新斟茶。 „The in market, said here, did not fear that listened, spreads carelessly?” “商场上的事情,在这里说,也不怕被人听去了,胡乱传扬么？” Long Boyuan smiles: „Was Heh, only some minor matters, is it possible that Wanjun regards what secret to listen inadequately?” 龙伯渊笑起来:“呵,只是些许小事,宛君莫非当成什么机密来听了不成？” „unexpectedly finds it very interesting.” Ding Wanjun smiles, „that Su Family Young Lady is who?” “倒是觉得挺有趣的。”丁宛君笑笑,“那苏家小姐是谁？” „Another Lou Family Young Lady.” “另一个楼家小姐。” „Oh.” “哦。” The Ding Wanjun nod expressed the understanding. The Lou Shūwan name has many people to know in Hangzhou, because the Lou Family three brother and sister are quite able in the market, in addition some Lou Family enormous influences, which aspect regardless, cannot be underestimated. As for in secret attitude how, average person, even if directs, is still useless. 丁宛君点头表示了解。楼舒婉的名字在杭州有许多人知道,因为楼家的三兄妹在商场都颇有能力,再加上楼家原本就有的巨大影响力,无论哪方面,都不容小觑。至于私下里作风如何,一般人就算指指点点,也是无用。 Lou Family has the person in the market and government, the average person dallies with the woman, Lou Shūwan then plays the man, moreover others played frankly and uprightly, righteous, she was quite nitpicking regarding the man, many people know that she with outside man together, often did not have the means to determine she actually in secret with anyone, if you thought that oneself was loose, wants before her frivolous, she also met firm to give you a slap on the face, pure and chaste practicing moderation, it is said two Scholar(egghead) were wants to gang up with Lou Shūwan, to the method, made uselessly others were angry, did two people brings ruin and shame upon oneself. 楼家在商场、官场都有人,一般人玩女人,楼舒婉便是玩男人,而且人家都玩得光明正大、理直气壮了,她对于男人极为挑剔,许多人知道她私下里跟外面的男人一起,却往往也没办法确定她到底跟谁,你若觉得自己风流俊逸,想要在她面前轻薄,她还会正色地给你一耳光,贞洁自持,据说有两名书生便是想要勾搭楼舒婉,没用对方法,弄得人家恼了,将两人搞得身败名裂。 The woman misconduct, this is the matter that many people know indistinctly, but only communicated with a man each time, moreover at least in Hangzhou, keeps the secret as far as possible. Because in her family/home the husband marries into the wife's household, her person is also strong, after that helps Scholar(egghead) be willing her to imagine becomes gets married , the lonely and noble woman, is somewhat pitiful, but she not the temper that likes the person pitying, on the contrary seems somewhat proud, therefore unexpectedly sets off an aesthetic sense to come...... part of Scholar(egghead) to be willing to understand like this. 那女人行为不检,这是许多人都隐约知道的事情,但每次只跟一个男人来往,而且至少在杭州,还是尽量保守着秘密。由于她家中夫婿是入赘,她人也强势,那帮书生就更愿意将她想象成一名成亲之后寂寞又高贵的妇人,有些可怜,但她又不是喜欢人怜悯的性子,反倒显得有几分傲岸,因此倒是衬出一种美感来……一部分书生更愿意这样理解。 „But, this Miss Su, unexpectedly visits each time, leads her husband...... that husband is also being marries into the wife's household.” Ding Wanjun said with a smile in a soft voice. “不过,这苏小姐,倒是每次拜访,都带着她的夫婿嘛……那夫婿也是入赘的吧。”丁宛君轻声笑道。 „When Lou Shūwan just got married, does not leave with her Husband double enters right. That Lou Shūwan is not necessarily willing to help support the family from the beginning, the man is incompetent, others said a lot, she thinks that did not become fed up difficultly...... this Su Family Young Lady husband, calling anything to come...... Oh, Ning Liheng, when greeted, the feeling was still permissible, this something to be talked about later few, for greeting several words, have perhaps been practicing. Hehe, will fear in the future is also difficult to escape this grade of pattern...... that Miss Su, although is it seems like gentle, but has nothing petty, is well-mannered, the words and deeds are appropriate, sleek/moist silent, is a talent, the such woman, the common men cannot suppress, let alone is marrying into the wife's household......” “楼舒婉刚成亲时,不也与她那夫君出双入对。那楼舒婉一开始也未必不愿意相夫教子,男人无能,旁人说得多了,她想不生厌都难……这苏家小姐的夫婿,叫什么来着……哦,宁立恒,打招呼时,感觉尚可,此后话就没几句,说不定为着打招呼的几句话,都是练过的。呵呵,往后怕也难逃这等模式……那苏小姐虽然看来温婉,但没什么小家子气,举止大方,言行得体,润物无声,是个人才,这样的女人,一般的男人都压不住,何况是个入赘的……” Long Boyuan spoke thoughtlessly, expressed the view. Ding Wanjun is pouring tea, unexpectedly faint gawked staring: „Ning Liheng?” 龙伯渊随口说着,发表看法。丁宛君正在斟茶,倒是微微愣了愣:“宁立恒？” „Um?” “嗯？” „Just now said that...... that person of marrying into the wife's household did call Ning Liheng?” “方才说……那入赘之人叫宁立恒？” „Yes, how?” Long Boyuan looks at her to smile, „is it possible that Wanjun knows this person.” “是啊,怎么了？”龙伯渊看着她笑起来,“莫非宛君认识此人。” „No, did not know.” Ding Wanjun smiles, shakes the head, after thinking , to continue to pour tea, „thinks that other things...... thought suddenly this name is good.” “没,不认识。”丁宛君笑笑,摇了摇头,想想之后,继续斟茶,“想到些其它的事情……一时间觉得这名字挺好的。” „Oh.” “哦。” Although Long Boyuan was called is a scholarly businessman, but after all in this field of endeavor, did not read occasionally, reads some classical old books, in present literary world, snorts contemptuously. Ding Wanjun is thinking this name unexpectedly looks like Prelude to Water Melody and Green Jadeite Bowl author, but thinks that is marries into the wife's household, thought that is impossible, perhaps of the same name. 龙伯渊虽被人称为是儒商,但毕竟不在此道上了,偶尔看书,也都是看些经典古籍,于如今文坛,是嗤之以鼻的。丁宛君想着这名字倒是像水调歌头、青玉案的作者,但想想是入赘的,也就觉得不可能了,许是同名。 Hangzhou said small, not really small, said big, not really big, opposite party, if is really, comes already to have 1-2 months, she does not use, when will hear from the Long Boyuan mouth at this time, other Scholar(egghead) Scholar, feared that should say early. 杭州说小不小,说大不大,对方若真是,过来已经有1-2月的时间,她也就不用等到这时才会从龙伯渊口中听到,其他的书生文人,怕是早该说起来了。
