Chapter 23: It’s only when you’re drunk that you realize you’re a guest
Li You was really not interested in discussing topics like literary talent! Feeling guilty, he held his wine glass and thought, I just want to copy a few suitable poems at the right time and at the right place to gain fame and fortune.
I looked around, and most of them were looking at the excitement. There was no kind person coming out to smooth things over. It turned out that everyone at the banquet had a game mentality. At this time, the banquet was already in the stage of drinking and having fun, even if something out of the ordinary happened.
Not an exaggeration.
Young Master, is it easy for me to gain some fame? I can’t let it fall easily. If you want to watch a performance, I’ll give it to you! I remember that many literati in the late Ming Dynasty were wild and eccentric. If you are a little more wild, it shouldn’t cause too much surprise...
…
Thinking of this, Li You suddenly threw the wine glass on the ground. It didn't break. It turned out to be a silver cup. After that, he took the wine bottle from Yuan Baoer's hand, opened the lid, took a long drink, and threw the wine glass harder, still
Not broken.
Under the gaze of everyone, Li You walked up to Yan Juren's table. Mr. Yan sneered and turned his head away, ignoring you. He allowed you to make all kinds of calculations, but I always ignored him. Let's see what you can do.
Li You laughed and said, "Master Yan, I really didn't come here to find you. There's no need to hide." Then he bowed to the prostitute next to Yan Juren and bowed, imitating the opera and saying, "This sister, Xiaosheng."
This is so polite!"
This prostitute's name was Lou Xinyue, and she was also a famous courtesan. She quickly got up to greet her and wished her a blessing, but she didn't know what Li You wanted to do with her.
Li You said with a smile: "I just sat across from you below. I peeked at my sister and fell in love with her. It's very dirty and noisy here. Sister, you might as well come and sit with me for some peace and quiet." He turned around and called the servant loudly: "Here.
Add a chair to my seat!"
Lou Xinyue glanced at Li You in embarrassment, then at Yan Juren, and refused: "Thank you, sir, for your kindness. This place is very nice, sir. I'd like to thank you for your consideration."
Master Yan just hummed, wanting to see what Li You was up to.
Li You reached out and grabbed Lou Xinyue's little hand, looked at her affectionately and said, "I feel uneasy when I see my sister. Who would have thought that she wouldn't come close to me? Since I don't want to be rewarded, I'll give my sister a poem."
Although Lou Xinyue was a prostitute, she felt very uncomfortable being held by Li You in front of everyone. She was not as strong as Li You in holding back her hands to break free, so she had no choice but to be held by him.
Li You looked at the beauty with blurred eyes and muttered in a sad and low voice: "How many times have I sat under the flowers and played the flute, with the red wall of silver and flowers in the distance. It seems that the stars are not last night, for whom is the wind dew standing at midnight? Lingering thoughts
After pulling out all the remaining cocoons, peeling back the banana with lingering heartache. In March and May of the third and fifth years, the pitiful pot of wine never went away."
It seems that the stars are not like last night, for whom is the wind dew standing in the middle of the night... Is this what Mr. Li wrote to her? The handsome young man paired the beautiful love poem, and Lou Xinyue's heart was instantly lost.
Wherever she is, she is just crazy. She has crossed the long river of time, and when she wakes up, she finds that she has unknowingly sat on Li You's seat...
As long as there were people with literary talents in the hall, they all recalled the beauty of this poem and secretly sighed that this poem was about to be sung in Jiangnan again. People are not old these days, and serious poems are not as popular as love poems. At the same time, they looked at it very funny.
The dizzy Lou Xinyue was held by Li You and abducted as she was unconscious.
Li You laughed wildly, and his elegance suddenly turned into vulgarity, and he shouted: "Good sister! You should be satisfied with the youth here, unlike the people over there who are old and old and useless."
Mr. Yan, who was ridiculed, sat alone, his eyes almost popping out of his head with anger. This was a double slap in the face.
Everyone felt that they had watched a good drama and burst into laughter. Li Dianshi was really an interesting and charming man!
Even though Lou Xin had been having fun for a long time, he couldn't help but blush at this time, lowered his head in shame, and didn't dare to see anyone. He secretly said that he had lost his soul and became a joke. But he didn't know that among all the prostitutes present, who didn't? Envy, it will be another interesting story that will be circulated tomorrow.
At this time, someone laughed and said, "Li Dianshi can't afford a few taels of silver to find a beautiful woman! Why does he want to stay up late at night? It must be to win the pity of the beautiful woman."
Li Yougong cupped his hands and said, "I'm ashamed. My salary is too meager. I can only think about it in my heart."
Xue Yuanqing, who was a few seats away, said, "If Mr. Li is interested, how about I pay to redeem it and give it to him? This will prevent him from being frozen by the wind and dew every night, and our county will lose a famous person."
Li You waved his hands repeatedly and said: "I'm ashamed, my salary is too meager and I can't afford it."
At this time, Lu Shangshu also laughed and scolded: "You are such a mean boy. Your salary is meager in one sentence and meager in the other. Others only think that the county magistrate has wronged you."
However, Chen Zhixian reprimanded Li Youdao: "The country has its own system, and no kid can make any arbitrary comments!"
Lou Xinyue's mood gradually calmed down. Although she knew in her heart that Li You was just teasing Mr. Yan for fun, she was still a little disappointed. However, she quickly adjusted her mentality and used her usual tricks to flirt with Yuan Bao. The children, one on the left and the other on the right, poured wine into Li You's mouth.
The banquet lasted until midnight, and Lu Shangshu sighed: "The local sounds are in my ears, the family wine is in my mouth, there are old friends at the table, and new friends at the table, laughing and talking freely, and the drunkenness is flowing in my mind. It seems that the stars are not last night, I I haven’t had the joy of tonight in several years. All my excitement has faded away!” He stood up and was supported by others before leaving.
Li You was also drunk and staggered to his feet. Yuan Baoer and Lou Xinyue both looked at him eagerly, and their thoughts were self-evident. Li You laughed hoarsely and said: "You only realize that you are a guest when you are drunk, so why not go home?" !Destroyed! Hu Bugui!"
The two beauties were left guessing and were confused. Didn't the original sentence mean that they were guests in a dream? What did Mr. Li mean when he changed the word "Fang Zhi" to "Fang Zhi"?
The feast, which cost an unknown number of hundreds of taels, came to an end and everyone said goodbye to each other.
When they left the mansion, others were either riding in carriages or sedan chairs, and there were servants waiting on them. Only Li You came on foot alone, and walked back alone, which was very eye-catching.
I saw him staggering along the river and supporting willow trees, stumbling and shouting: "I have been laughing and dancing and singing wildly for forty years, enjoying myself among the flowers and sleeping in the moon. My name has been spread all over the world, and no one cares about the lack of wine money in my waist!" "
The people in the cars and sedan chairs returning home finally discovered that Li You had plagiarized the poem. Tang Yin was from Suzhou, and his poems were known to everyone in the local area. But at this time, everyone would only praise him for his good copying. The level has been copied, the realm has been copied, and it is just like the person, the situation, and the scenery.
Can Li Dianshi's plagiarism be called plagiarism? It's called learning from others! If it had been three months ago, Li You would have been ridiculed as a horse that doesn't know how to look, and a person who doesn't know how ugly he is.
It's just that Li Dianshi really drank too much and said something like "forty years" indiscriminately. No one could explain it, they just said that Li Dianshi said it smoothly.
Only he knows that the two lifetimes add up to exactly forty years. Moreover, today is the birthday of his previous lifetime, so he can’t help but sigh that he only knows he is a guest when he is drunk.
Tonight's Best Actor was too deep into the drama. He was having a drunken attack and suddenly stepped on the air. Li You, who had just finished imitating Tang Bohu, fell into the river and passively imitated Li Bai to fish for the moon.
Before he passed out, he heard an arty house slave shouting: "Look! Li Dianshi is going to imitate Li Qinglian and become immortal again!"
Another loud shout was heard: "Hurry! Get into the water and save people!"
