With such a manager and good food, Xie Yixiao felt that if Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower could not be opened, then it was destined to be like this, and it would just be left to dawdle in the future.
I hope it can be worthy of the care she and Steward Mingjing put into it, as well as her painting of Mr. Jinghu's "Wind, Rain, Mountains and Rivers".
The dancer on the drum wears a pair of special embroidered shoes. She flicks her toes on the drum, and the drum sounds again, as if she is beating the drum. Her clothes are elegant, her red sleeves are swaying, the painted boat is still moving, and the water waves spread out.
There are ripples on the water, and shadows are reflected on the lake.
The two painted boats were finally connected with their bows facing each other. The two girls on the drum surface flicked their toes and landed on the opposite drum surface, and then continued to dance. This went back and forth several times, with flower petals swaying.
The fall is like a fairy dancing on the lake in the fairyland on earth.
When it was almost over, the two painted boats staggered a little further, then passed each other and continued to swim forward. The girl stopped dancing and jumped from the drum head. The drums sounded again, and then became farther and farther away.
Just when everyone was reluctant to leave and feeling regretful, the music of the piano came again. The clang of the music reflected the tranquility and distance of the water, as if it was so far away that they didn't know where it came from. It made people listen carefully and look around.
Not long after the sound of the piano started, there was another sound of flute, which interacted with the sound of the piano, and then merged into a song.
This is a piano and flute ensemble.
At this time, two bamboo rafts came from both sides of the lake. There was a man wearing a bamboo hat punting the boat. There was a piano seat on the bamboo raft on the left. An elegant woman in Tsing Yi was sitting in front of the piano seat. She was slender.
His fingertips touched the strings, and the sound slowly came out.
On the bamboo raft on the right stands a man wearing a green robe. He has a slender figure and a hollow flute in his hand, which he is playing.
The bamboo rafts come to meet each other from afar, the music of the piano and the flute harmonize, the water on the lake is rippling, and the sounds of the piano and the flute seem to be gathered in the sound of the flowing water. The scene is elegant, clean and beautiful, and the artistic conception is profound and longing.
When the two bamboo rafts were handed over, they did not pass by each other like the painted boats in front. Instead, the music of the piano and flute stopped. The man bowed his hands and saluted, smiling and inviting the woman to go with him.
The man's voice was gentle and polite, and the woman's was gentle and elegant. They seemed to fall in love at first sight, and then they returned home hand in hand, and the two bamboo rafts walked to the left.
The sound of the harp and flute started playing again. The woman sat in front of the harp seat and played, while the man stood beside her and played the flute.
The wind blows, the sound of the water slows down, the water surface sways gently, the figures reflected in the water merge together, the floating light and shadow move, reflecting the passing years.
The world didn't know that it would end like this, and the building suddenly became lively.
"How can it still be like this?"
"Bringing beauty back together is a great joy in life."
"I was just a music listener, but they asked me to watch this."
"The piano and flute are played together, and the husband and wife are in harmony. It's good."
"She plays the piano well, and Xiao also plays the piano well. This man and woman are a perfect match."
"This Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower is quite interesting."
Xie Yihui praised: "The play you arranged is really interesting, nice to listen to and watch, and very satisfying."
Probably most people in the world like to watch this kind of play about lovers finally getting married. The two people played the piano and the flute and played together, as if they had met a soulmate. After meeting, they fell in love with each other, so they returned home together hand in hand.
It's very touching.
Especially literati like this the most.
Xie Yixiao said with a smile: "It's all the thoughts of a woodcutter. He is a capable person." Even if Xie Yixiao gave him some tips and gave him ideas, it is still very impressive for him to be able to come up with these things.
It's up to you.
Mingshi said: "If there is a performance like this every now and then, why should Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower worry about poor business?"
Xie Yi smiled and said: "I'm afraid it's not easy to do it every once in a while, but it's possible occasionally."
Ming said: "It's good once in a while, but boring if it's too much."
Xie Yi smiled and nodded: "Indeed." Occasionally, surprises come, and if you advertise that there will be a performance on a certain day, you can attract customers. If it happens every day, you won't have time to come up with anything new, and it will be boring if you watch too much.
It's good to catch customers occasionally.
The ensemble of pianos and flutes paused for a while, and then there was music again, and painted boats and bamboo rafts came slowly on the lake, swaying with the ripples of the water.
This piece is a piece that Xie Yixiao picked after listening to many pieces from this world. It is an ensemble piece, and its artistic conception is somewhat similar to "Breeze Tour on the River". It is also played on the water, which is very suitable for the occasion.
Everyone leaned on the railing, looked at the bamboo rafts of the painted boats on the lake, and listened to the music. They suddenly felt relaxed and happy, as if they were among the painted boats on the river, feeling the breeze blowing on the river.
There is a faint fragrance of lotus in the wind, the water is clear, the sun is shining from the sky, and there are sparkling waves on the water, bright and clear. When you look up, it is a very beautiful picture.
After the Qingfeng Tour on the river, there are several other programs, including the fisherman Wu Nong's soft-spoken ballads on the awning boat, the gentlemen traveling around the mountains and rivers to collect folk customs, and the girls joining hands to travel together.
The guests were dazzled and exclaimed that it was wonderful. They felt that they had only watched these few performances today, and it was a worthwhile trip.
After the performance is over, the competition will begin.
Manager Mu arranged a venue for the competition. The third floor of the teahouse near the lake is not used as a competition venue. The second floor is used for chess competitions, the first floor is for poetry competitions, and the tea fight is on the first floor of another teahouse.
As for throwing pots and guessing lantern riddles, they were arranged in the open space in front of the teahouse. Although the sun was already out, the April sunshine was not too hot, so it was just in use.
The top 30 participants in the competition can all get rewards from Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower. The first place winner will get a lottery prize, which is not cheap. The second and third places also have their own things, which are also very good.
Those ranked four to ten will get five kinds of food from Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower for free, and those ranked eleven to thirty will get two kinds of food.
When the competition started, the building became more lively. Many students came for Mr. Jinghu's "Wind, Rain, Mountains and Rivers", so a lot of people flocked to the poetry competition.
There are also many people who play chess, throw pots, and guess lantern riddles. The one with the smallest number of people is tea fighting. In the middle of the former Qin Dynasty, the life of the powerful was particularly enjoyable. The world also liked to drink ground tea powder. There were countless people who were good at this.
Later, in the late Qin Dynasty, tea making became popular. Gradually, few people played this game. Nowadays, people who study this skill are rare.
On the third floor, the two gentlemen invited by steward Mu were already standing in front of the prepared desks. They were painting and writing. Many people came to the third floor to watch.
These two are also considered to be famous painters and calligraphers in the Imperial City.
"I'm just watching, I'm afraid there will be a fight between Chang'an Tower and your Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower in the future..."
