The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 27: Zhangshanren


Zhou Huilin still didn't know what Yun Yanhui was thinking, but when he saw that they were smoothing things out, Zhao Yunchu also agreed, relieved, and got up from the ground. He wanted to find the doctor, but he couldn't help looking at Yun Yanhui suspiciously. : "Aren't you really setting up a game to wait for me? Are you fishing for me?"

"Do you think you're a bastard?" Hui Chong laughed angrily, "Didn't you want to invite trouble yourself?"

Zhou Huilin blushed a bit, and hummed: "Forget it this time..."

"Wait," Yun Yanhui said suddenly, walked over to him and asked in a low voice, "The person who fought with you last time was called Zheng Ling? Guan Erzheng?"

Zhou Huilin is not so arrogant anymore, and glanced at him, "Your own relatives, you ask me?"

He is now more sure that this person and Zheng Ling are relatives. If it is an ordinary civilian, how can he know the prince's son? This is why he inexplicably suspected that it was Zheng Ling's game, he thought it was too coincidental, but when he didn't bring his followers, he was so unlucky...

If you have this sentence, you will know it is right. Yun Yan shrugged back and stepped back.

Zhou Huilin looked at him, looked at Zhao Yunchu, shrank his head, remembered Zhao Yunchu's appearance, and walked back, thinking that he wanted to find out which clan this was, so he knew about it Is there any trace of Zheng Ling in the back?

After Yun Yan walked back, she looked at Zhao Yunchu for a while, then touched her chin and said, "Junior brother, the sentence you said earlier, 'My surname is Zhao, I'll kill you but stay at home for a few years' is so majestic. "

Hui Chong agreed, "I can't stand it anymore, I thought you weren't a junior."

Zhao Yunchu said embarrassedly: "...I heard my brother say it a few times in the past, so I learned it."

Yunyan Hui and Hui Chong: "..."

Sure enough, Zhao Yunchu's stupid white sweet personality will not collapse!

As for Zhao Yundi, this guy hasn't collapsed, he just didn't run away.

Although there was some trouble here, it was resolved quickly and the traffic was large, so it didn't affect the business. The last few Mojos were sold smoothly.

Hui Chong and Yun Yan took Zhao Yundi to visit Wazi, at the same time as Zhang Jinxian, a famous puppet artist in Bianjing. Famous entertainers and courtesans of this era are just like modern celebrities. Zhang Jinxian's stick-headed puppet has several classic puppet plays. Not only are the puppets beautiful and exquisite, but the plays are also wonderful, so they are quite famous.

The puppets in Beijing include stick head puppets, medicine hair puppets, hanging silk puppets, water puppets, etc. They are controlled in different ways. Like hanging silk, they are actually called marionette puppets in later generations, and the stick head is easy to understand. It is a puppet that is empty inside, supported by a wooden stick, and people hold the wooden stick to control the puppet's activities, and at the same time have to sing and read, and each style is different.

They sat in front of Zhang Jinxian's puppet troupe and watched a very fitting "The Cowherd and Weaver Girl". Both Hui Chong and Zhao Yunchu were very fascinated, while Yun Yanhui was more drawn out to appreciate and admire. There are no loudspeakers in this era. In such a large shed, the artists on the stage are full of energy, their voices are high and not harsh, so that everyone in the shed can hear clearly, which requires a lot of skill and strength.

And Yun Yanhui found that the stage design was also very careful. When the Queen Mother used a silver hairpin to draw out the Milky Way to separate the Cowherd and Weaver Girl, a black cloth was unfolded behind the puppet, and the black cloth was dotted with white dots. , from the audience, it looks like a galaxy in the sky, very beautiful.

The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were at the two ends of the galaxy, singing mournfully, and the audience suddenly exclaimed.

The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are separated by the Milky Way and cannot be together. Only on July 7th every year, when magpies build a bridge of magpies, can they meet.

Zhao Yunchu's eyes were red as he hugged Yun Yanhui's arm, "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are so pitiful!"

Although Yun Yanhui appreciates this puppet show, it is an appreciation for the skills. He really can't be moved by this story that he has heard countless times. He only thinks that Zhao Yunchu is really serious... So Lean on Hui Chong.

Hui Chong was under the weight of the two children and touched his bare head, "Junior brother is very soft-hearted, but it's okay, I will please the little lady."

Zhao Yunchu had tears in his eyes, "What about Brother Yan?"

He found out that Yan Ge'er didn't even have an expression. In fact, Yan Ge'er's laughter, tears, etc. have always been a little different from everyone else. I rarely see him laugh at jokes, or even Vasheri's jokes. It's better than Xiaobao's fall to make him laugh more. .

Hui Chong said: "Brother Yan pleases Langjun..."

Zhao Yunchu and Yun Yanhui said in unison, "Why?"

I have to say that Zhao Yunchu was simply asking why, while Yun Yanhui's thinking was a bit not simple... It's all because of Zhao Yundi's appearance!

Hui Chong laughed and said, "I want to have such a son."

Yunyan replied: "..."

What Hui Chong said was right, but because Yun Yanhui thought about it earlier, and he was not a real child, so he sounded like a curse, so he was a little depressed.

After watching the puppet show, I played in the washhouse again. Before I knew it, at the second watch, Hui Chong brought them back to their original place.

Yunyan returned the loan to ask for something to eat, took Hui Chong away, and said to Zhao Yunchu: "Junior Brother, please help me find someone, his name is Zheng Ling, the one who fought with Zhou Huilin that day, he should be someone The official's son."

Zhao Yunchu did not associate Zheng Ling's "Zheng" with Zheng Ping's "Zheng". This is also because he had never met Zheng Ling and thought Yun Yanhui was hating this person. He agreed, "I'll go ask my dad."

"Thank you." Yun Yan patted him on the shoulder back, if it weren't for Zhao Yunchu, with Bianliang's greatness and so many officials, he didn't know how much effort it would take, and he might not have been able to find out.

After a while, Hui Chong came back, and not long after, Zhao Yundi also dragged his legs to the round.

Zhao Yundi was still full of thoughts, but Hui Chong told him very conscientiously that Zhao Yunchu broke a yannei's hand tonight.

When Zhao Yundi heard this, he laughed and said, "It deserves it! I know that Zhou Lang will skip classes as soon as he goes to school, and he will spit as soon as he goes to the street. He even dares to bully my little Lang. Discounting his arm is considered a bargain for him, I have to block it again later, I have to ask him to kneel down and call Grandpa."

Hui Chong was speechless. He originally wanted to report to the parents, but who knew that Zhao Yundi was the biggest troublemaker. "Your legs are like this, so you can make people kneel down and call him grandpa?"

Zhao Yundi: "What do you know, it's because I broke my leg that he dare not follow me?"

Others: "..."

Yun Yanhui actually quite appreciates Zhao Yundi's idea of ​​touching porcelain. If he was in Zhao Yundi's position, he might also use this method, but unfortunately, he doesn't have that background.

So, after the Zhao brothers left, Yun Yanhui didn't go back immediately, but told Huichong and went to find an artist in the Washe.

As the promoter of the new branch of the whole Bianliang speaking industry, Yun Yanhui has made friends with many speaking artists, including the leader of this joke artist - Zhang Shanren.

Zhangshan people were originally from Shandong, and they made a living by telling jokes in their hometown. As I introduced before, they often used current affairs stalks in their jokes, insinuating those officials and nobles. Zhangshan people were in their hometown because they Their local corrupt officials were ridiculed and suppressed and fled to Beijing.

Gold will shine wherever it is. In just three or four years after entering Beijing, Zhang Shanren not only gained a firm foothold in Tokyo, but also gained fame and became the number one joker. He is very good at interspersing his works with 17-character mocking poems of five characters and three sentences. Because it is easy to understand and interesting, it has become the highlight and characteristic of his works.

Furthermore, Zhang Shanren was also one of the few speaking artists who did not join forces to boycott Daxiangguo Temple monks from entering the profession. So Yun Yanhui had a very good impression of him, and the two had been in touch several times, and they had a deep friendship with each other.

Zhang Shanren also has a performance tonight. He was the last one to play. He just finished his performance and is still backstage. This well-known washer artist is only about thirty now, but he has experienced all kinds of hardships and has a very mature demeanor.

After Yun Yan reappeared, someone who knew him invited him in and saw that Zhang Shanren was having a snack under the service of several disciples.

At this time, because of the rich nightlife, many people have the habit of eating late-night snacks, especially for artists who have performances at night.

Seeing Yunyan coming back, Zhang Shanren put down the snack and greeted him, "Brother."

The disciples of Zhang Shanren, ranging from 30 to 40 and as young as 13 to 14, also bowed and stood up one after another, shouting respectfully at Yun Yan, "Uncle."

Yunyan replied: "..."

Although this is not the first time he has been treated like this, he still avoids it unnaturally...
