Wu Chunlai frowned and looked around, and saw a slender figure jumping from a boat onto the platform where the judges' seats were. A clear voice came out immediately.
"Sir, you have really good eyesight. You are a student. Please forgive me for being rude, sir. I am really busy. I just finished setting up the stage, and now I am here to see the teacher." Lin Jue cupped his hands and walked quickly. Come on, your hair is a little messy and there is some sweat on your face.
"I don't blame you. You came just in time. Master is being followed by a fly. Get rid of this fly for me. It's very disgusting." Fang Dunru shouted.
Lin Jue was stunned and didn't understand what it meant. He came closer and bowed, then looked around and said: "Where are the flies? Why didn't I see them? The night breeze was cool and it was on the water. Where did it come from? There are flies. Mosquitoes are really there to be afraid of.”
"Didn't you see such a big fly? What do you have eyes for?" Fang Dunru said angrily.
Lin Jue was stunned and immediately noticed the gloomy-looking Wu Chunlai standing next to Fang Dunru. He did not know Wu Chunlai. He pointed at Wu Chunlai and said, "You are talking about... this person?"
Fang Dunru snorted and said nothing. Lin Jue was amused. Fang Dunru had a good reputation. When walking on the streets of Hangzhou, people who knew him would come up to say hello or pester him to become his disciple. Lin Jue felt that I thought that Wu Chunlai was also an idler who pestered Fang Dunru to become his master. How could Lin Jue dare not respect his master's orders?
"Sir, please don't bother my master here. I don't want to offend you in today's Oiran Competition. I won't call the guards to get you. Let's go." Lin Jue came towards Wu Chunlai. He cupped his hands and smiled.
Wu Chunlai looked Lin Jue up and down, frowned and said, "Are you the teacher's new junior named Lin Jue?"
Lin Jue was stunned and said in surprise: "You are... Wu... Wu..."
"Exactly, it seems that the teacher told you that you should call me senior brother." Wu Chunlai said.
Lin Jue looked at Wu Chunlai carefully and sighed secretly in his heart. Wu Chunlai has a long body and elegant appearance, but he is a talented person. Why did he do such shameful things that betrayed his master? He really can't be judged by his appearance.
"I'm very sorry. I only know that my master once accepted a student, but that person was expelled from the master with evil intentions. Now I am the only student under the master, and I don't have any brothers or sisters. Mr. Wu, the past That's it. You have to take responsibility for what you do, so why bother with it? Please stop pestering my teacher, otherwise as a teacher's student, I'm afraid I will offend you. Please leave." Lin Jue said calmly. road.
Wu Chunlai frowned and said: "Junior brother, I have heard something about you. Do you know what position I hold? I am the director of the political affairs hall. Be polite to me. Maybe I can support you because of my friendship with you. you."
Lin Jue laughed and said: "Mr. Wu is indeed this kind of person. Those who are tempted by profit think that inducement is the best weapon in the world. Unfortunately, these will not work for me. I am not denying you Mr. Wu face. But I still have to tell you, there are so many people who want to support me. If you want to support me, first of all, you have to see if I am willing, and secondly, I’m afraid you have to queue up first.”
"You... don't know what is good or bad, what's the use of your words? Not to mention you are so arrogant and arrogant. You are so arrogant in front of me, aren't you afraid that I will punish you?" Wu Chunlai shouted coldly.
Lin Jue sneered and said: "I'm not afraid of you. I haven't broken any laws and I haven't done anything shameful. What should I be afraid of? You are an official and I am not a commoner. The Holy One has given me the name of a righteous man. You...
Does Guan'er have this title given by the Holy One? I'm not bragging or arrogant. Ask Prince Liang and Magistrate Yan, who among them doesn't want to support me? Mr. Wu, I don't want to quarrel with you. So many people are watching.
You don't think it's embarrassing, but I think it's very embarrassing. The Oiran competition is about to start, isn't Mr. Wu here to disrupt the situation?"
Wu Chunlai turned around and looked around, only to see several judges around him listening attentively. Apparently the argument was louder and had successfully aroused their interest. Looking ahead, he saw a boat full of colorful lanterns.
The bamboo raft has slowly come to the water in front, and standing on it is the host of the Oiran Competition. It seems that everyone is waiting for the Oiran Competition to start and for them to return to their positions.
"Lin Jue, remember what you said today. If you feel that what you said today is inappropriate and you want to apologize to me, then come to me at Chengdong Guanyi." Wu Chunlai said in a low voice.
Lin Jue almost laughed out loud. This Wu Chunlai was too confident and too shameless. I am afraid that this person is a person who is determined to retaliate. With these few words, he has already started to threaten himself nakedly.
"Mr. Wu, what you said is a bit inappropriate. You should think about it after you go back. If you feel that you have offended me, you are welcome to come to me and apologize. I am usually in the Lin Family Boat Shop lobby at Pier 1 in the middle section of the Shiyao River."
"Pfft!" An old man on the judging panel on the side finally couldn't help laughing and squirted a sip of tea, thinking: This Lin Jue is so naughty, but this will really offend Master Wu.
Master Wu's face turned pale, he snorted coldly and turned away. Lin Jue smiled and said, "Master Wu, don't you forget your kindness? How come you didn't even say hello to the teacher before leaving?"
Wu Chunlai was still willing to look back, and walked quickly along the wooden steps to the VIP seats. His heart was filled with anger and he cursed again and again. However, he heard a burst of whispers coming from the judges' seat behind him.
"Back then... I betrayed my master... I was ungrateful... I was worse than a beast..."
Wu Chunlai suppressed his anger and walked back to his seat with a pale face. He turned around and looked at the front where Lin Jue and Fang Dunru were talking intimately together. Fang Dunru was smiling and patted Lin Jue's arm, looking extremely loving.
Wu Chunlai was so angry that he bit his back teeth into pieces.
Lin Jue and Fang Dunru took the time to say a few words of sympathy.
"Teacher, I heard from Xiaohu that my wife is coming to the city tonight to watch the oiran competition. Teacher is here. Where is my wife? You can't squeeze in the crowd on the shore. I'll find a seat in the VIP seat to make my wife comfortable.
Sit down."
Due to lack of time and resources, Lin Jue was originally supposed to go to the academy to deliver the Mid-Autumn Festival gift to the master today, so Lin Jue had to ask Lin Hu to go for a trip in the afternoon and bring a lot of gifts. When Lin Hu came back, he also informed Fang Dun that tonight
There was news that the couple would go to the city. Therefore, Lin Jue felt that he should do his part in filial piety and arrange a good seat for his wife. This was not difficult. Lin Jue reserved dozens of VIP seats for people from the Grand Theater and freed up the
It's easy to get one.
"You don't need to bother me. I've already arranged it. Your wife actually doesn't understand anything, so she just joins in the fun. Moreover, Magistrate Yan also helped arrange the seats, so you don't have to worry. I heard that you arranged the seats for Wanhua Tower and Qunfang Pavilion.
To help with the boxing, you should just go about your business."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "I am still a gentleman and don't know how to get along. That's good. But I don't know where the master's wife is sitting? I'll go and see her."
Fang Dunru hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, it will start right away. You don't have to be distracted. Your wife will not blame you."
Lin Jue stood on tiptoe and looked at the dark crowd at the VIP seats on the rear platform. In fact, he couldn't see clearly where his wife was sitting. He thought for a while and said, "Forget it, after the oiran competition is over, I will send you and my wife to the academy."
Then I will confess to my wife."
Fang Dunru nodded and smiled, noncommittal. Lin Jue had no choice but to bow and say goodbye. After getting on the boat, the boat rowed towards the parking spot of the Wanhualou Qunfang Pavilion flower boat.
In the middle of the VIP seats at the back, among the dark crowd, a beautiful girl was looking at the figure talking to Fang Dunru from afar, her eyes full of contradictions and love. Since that figure appeared on Fang Dunru
After that, she didn't move her eyes away.
"Qiu'er, if you really want to see him, you might as well meet him after the show is over." The middle-aged woman sitting next to her reached out and held her cold little hand.
The girl shook her head slightly and said: "No... I am satisfied if I can see him."
The woman sighed and hugged the girl's shoulders lovingly.
"Dong dong dong! Dong dong dong!" A heart-stirring drum sound suddenly sounded in front. The people who were already a little anxious and tired of waiting were suddenly startled and attracted by the exciting drum sound. The buzzing voices
The noise also disappeared instantly, and the scene immediately became quiet.
After the drum beat three times in a row, the lights on the water in front of the three floating platforms and the judges' seat were brightly lit. A bamboo raft appeared in everyone's field of vision. Someone noticed the bamboo raft just as it was approaching, but the wind lantern on the bamboo raft was only
Two lanterns, it was unclear what the bamboo rafts were used for. At this moment, a series of wind lanterns raised on the long poles at the four corners of the bamboo rafts all lit up, and the scenery on the bamboo rafts was clearly presented to everyone.
The bamboo raft is an ordinary bamboo raft. On the bamboo raft, an old man wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat is slowly holding a long pole in his hand. There is also a man in a long robe and a black crown standing with his back to the people, posing in an extremely chic posture.
, and was shaking a huge snow-white folding fan in his hand.
"Qionglou Yuyu. It is obviously not affected by the heat of the human world. How can it be ordinary? But tonight, all the colors are the same. Su'e has read all about the present and the past. Why not stop and listen to my words. In those days, I danced with shadows. Wonderful tunes
Although it is passed down, what kind of person is he?"
The man recited a poem in a clear voice, with a clear voice and clear enunciation, which was very pleasant to the ears. After reciting the word, the man slowly turned around, held his hands in front of the person, and saluted with a smile.
"It's Mr. Zhao Zimo Zhao, hahaha." The people shouted loudly, and then they applauded like thunder.
Zhao Zimo is an iconic figure in the Oiran Competition. He serves as the emcee of the Oiran Competition every year. His words are witty and he has control. He has actually become a symbol of the Oiran Competition. Whenever he appears, everyone feels comfortable.
That means this is another authentic Mid-Autumn Festival Oiran Competition.
Prior to this, there were rumors that Zhao Zimo was seriously ill and might not be able to serve as the master of ceremonies for this year's Oiran Competition. The people were very worried and concerned. For many people, it seemed like something was missing because Zhao Zimo was not the master of ceremonies.
The Oiran Competition seemed incomplete. However, now Zhao Zimo still appeared in front of everyone. The people were pleasantly surprised. Many people had wet eyes and shed tears of excitement.
Zhao Zimo has indeed lost a lot of weight, his face has aged a lot, and his cheeks are sunken. But his smile is as friendly as ever, and his voice is still the same as before. But his aging has become very obvious. In the past, every Mid-Autumn Festival
Seeing him, he didn't seem to feel that he was aging year after year. But at this moment, people remembered that Zhao Zimo had been the emcee of the Oiran Competition for 21 years and was already in his sixties.
