Smiling at the peach blossom fan, peach blossoms smile at the spring breeze

In the blink of an eye, it's the Yuanxiao Festival, the traditional Chinese spring Valentine's Day. Hou Fangyu sat in front of the window, flipping through the annotations of Zhu Xi on the Four Books and Five Classics and the series of examination experiences and excellent essay collections of the predecessors of the Fushe Society, but his eyes kept looking out of the window, and when he thought of the Yuanxiao Festival, he couldn't help but think of the white and round Yuanxiao, and when he thought of Yuanxiao, he thought of the poems about the Yuanxiao Festival and the young lady such as "The crowd is looking for her thousands of degrees" and "People are about after dusk", as well as "The hot spring water is slippery and washes the cream", and when I think of "a branch of red apricot comes out of the wall", I can't help but think of the white faces and arms of the young ladies.

After thinking about it for a while, Hou Fangyu felt hot and dry, and he couldn't sit still at home, so he went out to walk on the street.

Walking in the streets and alleys, Hou Fangyu felt that Nanjing is much stronger than his hometown Shangqiu, where the scenery is beautiful, the streets are neat, the shops are lined up, the goods are varied, the tourists are weaving, and the salted duck here is particularly delicious, and you must bring a few to the children when you go back.

The fly in the ointment is that no one knows it when walking in the downtown area, which is not as good as Shangqiu. Hou Fangyu is a celebrity in Shangqiu, someone greets him at any time on the road, the men cast envious glances, the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law continue to send Qiu Bobo with hooks in her eyes, and she gains confidence and admiration all the way. Now walking in Nanjing, no one notices that others are handsome and excellent, and they can't hold anyone's little hand to walk on the street, which makes him feel like a pearl buried in the sand.

What makes Hou Fangyu most dissatisfied is the young ladies here, not only do they have eyes that don't know gold and jade, but also have a very problematic taste in clothes

I originally came out today to buy a workbook, but my feet didn't listen to the call, and I didn't know how to walk to the Qinglou street - the old courtyard of Changqiao.

Since he came, he couldn't be hypocritical, Hou Fangyu walked around the doors of the major green buildings, his eyes looked at the places where he shouldn't be looking, looking forward to a sister Lin falling from the sky, thinking that if there was any sexual encounter, this trip to Nanjing would be perfect.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, Chairman Hou turned around and transferred to Li Zhenli Art School, stopped at the gate of Zhu Qi, wanted to go in and talk to the artist, and thought that it would make people laugh when he turned to the Qinglou in broad daylight, so he quickly turned around and walked away. But I regretted taking two steps, if I didn't go in, this long day was really difficult, and I was really sorry for this Shaohua spring, the flowers bloomed and could be broken straight, and there were no flowers and empty branches.

Just when Hou Fangyu was struggling with whether to go in, there were voices from inside the door, and then several people walked out.

Hou Fangyu looked at it, but it was Liu Mazi, County Magistrate Yang and Professor Su.

When the three of them saw Chairman Hou, they all came forward to greet him with a smile. After chatting a few words, Hou Fangyu learned that there was no one in the art school, and all the teachers and students went to another art school for a party.

This Qinglou Gala has a nice name: Box Club - a unique festival in Nanjing's Qinglou industry.

Qinglou industry is a pillar industry in Nanjing, and has made great contributions to Nanjing's fiscal revenue. Qinglou workers meet on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year to hold a congress of all artists to exchange work experience, formulate industry standards, discuss and jointly reduce vicious competition in the industry, safeguard the basic rights and interests of Qinglou workers, and study and deploy the overall work ideas for the next step.

Different from the organizational form of the traditional meeting, there is no chairman to convey the spirit of the superior, no annual work report of the general manager, no special report on finance, trade union, audit and welfare, and there is no need to pass any resolution, but to take a more lively form - tea party. On this day, the delegates wore makeup and brought a box to the meeting. The box contains all kinds of food, including cantaloupe from the Western Regions, Persian wine, jackfruit from Hainan, all kinds of homemade desserts, pastries, meat, seafood, etc. Delegates chatted while eating, showcasing their food, discussing their cooking skills, and tasting other people's food and offering praises. The atmosphere is lively and warm, but also warm and relaxed. The meeting also formed a team of judges to judge and score the food brought by the delegates, and those who taste good praise and those who taste bad will be punished.

During the meeting, a technical competition was also arranged, and the business backbone of each unit showed their talents, established the image of the unit, and built their own brand.

The conference also invited some local gentry, celebrities, literati, retired cadres, old customers of units, and long-term partners in the industry to attend the meeting, and interact with artists and art schools as special guests and judges. The guests sometimes give rewards to some highly skilled and skilled artists.

The box will usually be hosted by some large and medium-sized art schools with strong strength and good social reputation in turn. The principal of the school that hosted the meeting was very famous, and his name was Bian Yujing.

"Yujing" doesn't sound like a person's name, but more like a place name. In fact, Yujing is the name of the place, located in the highest level of the thirty-six heavens, the Yuqing Holy Realm Qingwei Heaven, and the owner of this layer of heaven is Yuan Shi Tianzun. One is passed on to three friends, and the two religions are divided, so it can be said that Yuan Shi Tianzun is the core of the second generation of Taoist leadership collective, and his residence is naturally extraordinary.

At present, the scientific and technological level of human beings cannot detect the existence of this layer of heaven for the time being, but according to the records, this layer of heaven often has auspicious clouds around the purple gas to the east but never rain and wind, it can be inferred that this layer of heaven should be at the top of the troposphere to connect to the troposphere, 10-50 kilometers away from the earth.

This airspace is very large, but the resident population is small, and there are only Yuan Shi Tianzun and a few subordinate staff who are responsible for miscellaneous work. However, there are many people who come and go, sometimes there are gods to visit friends, or poets to seek Taoism, or monkeys to ask for help. In order to prevent guests from sleeping on the streets, twelve high-rise buildings and five castles were built to accommodate the service staff and guests. Because the building materials of these castles are white marble, it is also called "White Jade Jing". "Bai" and "Bian" are basically the same sound in ancient Nanjing, so Bai Yujing's and Bian Yujing have the same pronunciation.

Such a tall place should not be used as a personal name, let alone the name of a Qinglou worker. The name of the Qinglou worker should be Fenghua Xueyue Meilan Zhuju, or Qinqi, calligraphy and painting, Yanwan Yaying is not out of the circle, it is Xiaohong Xiaocui's cheesy name is not wrong, but it is too much to call the name of the residence of the Taoist Supreme, so that the three Qing, four royal, and twelve golden immortals are embarrassed.

Taoism regards false fame as floating clouds, all laws are empty, meat and vegetarian do not avoid no sword in their hands, no dust in their hearts, but if anyone dares to link the core figures of Taoism with the work of Qinglou, they will be thundered by Taoism for demons and evil spirits.

The reason why Bian Yujing dared to use this name was because she herself had another identity: Daogu. Bian Yujing used it as a Taoist name to express his infinite respect for the Taoist leader Yuan Shi Tianshi and his devotion to becoming an immortal and getting rid of reincarnation.

There is a question here, is there a conflict between the identity of the Qinglou worker and the beliefs of Taoism?

There is no conflict. The vast majority of Taoist teachings do not shy away from the affairs of men and women, and some sects seek to get out of the dust by entering the world, and oppose the three customs with the three customs, and are even more bold and open than the people in the world. Taoism believes that the lonely yin is not born, the lonely yang is not long, the harmony of yin and yang is the right way, there is a special research direction called yin and yang complementarity, the old Taoists take yin to supplement the yang, and the banshees suck yang energy are all for the purpose of cultivating the avenue, many old Taoists are veterans in this, so the old Taoist Wang in "Dream of Red Mansions" can recommend special drugs to Baoyu.

Even Buddhism also has a discipline that specializes in the study of the relationship between men and women, "happiness and emptiness", the dual cultivation of men and women, the desire to control desire, and the dyeing to achieve purity, which is the supreme way for some branches of Buddhism to achieve liberation. It was Siddhartha Gautama who also had a temporary husband and wife with a young lady named "Thirsty Curtain Music". Thirsty Curtain Music, which literally means hunger and thirst for joy, is a name that shows how crazy he was when he was with the Buddha. There is nothing wrong with this way of practice, but if you don't enter the WTO, where will you come from?

Of course, this practice is not applicable to all monks, but only to the leaders of a single department who have the Tao and have deep roots, high rank, and power.

Buddhism has both men and women's days off, and it is still a formal method, which subverts our cognition. We believe that monks and Taoists should be pure in heart and have few desires, and resolutely put an end to male and female love, so we believe that such monks are evil monks, which leads to the weakening of this branch.

Bian Yujing is not a natural Taoist, let alone a natural Qinglou worker, but a lady. Her original name was Bian Sai, and she had a younger sister named Bian Min, who was born in the family of the official eunuch in Nanjing.

This is a bit of a disadvantage, because Qinglou is a traditional service industry that requires specific professional skills. In order to improve the service level and meet the needs of customers, Qinglou practitioners conduct in-depth research on the psychology and physiology of customers, and on this basis, formulate the general syllabus and code of conduct of Qinglou. The advantage of this is that most of the Qinglou workers can receive professional education, have strong business ability, good service attitude, and can do it in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs. Of course, the disadvantage of this kind of professional education is that it is the same, from the dress, language, and manners all with the Qinglou fan, it is not a serious person at first glance, especially it cannot meet the needs of some high-end customers with tricky tastes, weird habits, and the pursuit of taste.

This is very obvious in Bian Sai. With or without professional education, Bian Sai relies on his own feelings and understanding when doing business, does not please customers, does not have a strong sense of service, does not have high enthusiasm for work, and cannot fully practice the basic line of "coming from the masses to the masses".

That's not right. You must know that most of the people who can find Bian Sai at this level are upper-class people, everyone comes to Qinglou in addition to studying physiology and hygiene, and more importantly, it is a high-level spiritual enjoyment, listening to songs, listening to piano and dance, talking about life, talking about ideals, talking about life, looking for first love and finding true love.

Also due to the lack of professional education, Bian Sai has less bad habits of professional women in Qinglou, and has more shy, cold and other rare ladies in the industry than his peers.

If the femininity of Dong Xiaowan and others is learned or acted, Bian Sai's temperament is exuded from the bones, and the natural style is performed. This makes Bian Sai look otherworldly among his peers, and it alludes to the gist of "being a Qinglou worker like everyone's ladies".

Women have a hundred charms and thousands of reds, each with its own merits, and it is difficult to say which one is the most beautiful. Therefore, women are not afraid of shortcomings, they are afraid of having no characteristics. With the remarkable feature of "everyone's girlfriends", Bian Sai quickly stood out among his peers.

Of course, as an artist, Bian Sai's basic skills are very solid, poetry, piano, calligraphy and painting are omnipotent, among which there are four major specialties: one is good at small letters, good handwriting; second, through literature and history, and the literati can chat, let go of the chat, without her can't catch the wake up, to ensure that people can talk to the best of the fun and transparent; the third is to be able to draw, "a pen to do more than ten papers"; fourth, the eyes are very bright, always watery, "the eyes are clear, the day and the good ink and paper reflect each other"; fifth, the amount of wine is good, the wine is good, never drunk after drinking, and a little more charming.

With the unremitting efforts of the charming bones and the acquired and distinctive characteristics, Bian Sai's career has achieved great success, he is glamorous at a young age, fans gather, the silver grate is broken, and the blood-colored Luo skirt is turned over the wine stain, and the first beauty at that time, Chen Yuanyuan, is as famous: "The wine is looking for Bian Sai, and Chen Yuan is out of the bottom of the flower."

How could such a stunning beauty have anything to do with Jiutian Laojun? It can only be said that life is impermanent, and creation makes people.
