There is a bar in Houhai

Chapter 354
Shen Fang greeted Li Hui and Li Hui, and followed Zhao Yuming to the booth on the second floor. These are the reserved seats in the teahouse.This is also a tradition left over from the old times, so that it is convenient for people who are not easy to offend to listen to cross talk.

Zhao Yuming ordered the staff to help serve a pot of tea, and then brought a cold dish of peanuts and melon seeds, then said goodbye to Archer and returned to the backstage.Shen Fang and Qin Mohan sat near the guardrail, listening to the cross talk by leaning on the railing like the people next to them.

The two old actors on the stage had finished their performances, and two young cross talk actors came up. Shen Fang and Qin Mohan had also seen it backstage just now.After the two of them bowed their hands to the audience in turn, they slapped the audience on the second floor.

What they were talking about was a piece of "Manhua Foreign Languages". The two had solid basic skills, and the performances were closely related to the times. They also interacted with the audience from time to time, which made people overjoyed.After the two went down, there was another "Jinmen Dialect" performed by young actors, and then came to the finale of this afternoon's show. Young Ma Ye and his partner are also students Huang Zuming.

Ma Zhiming's cross talk is very different from his father Ma Shanli.Master Ma Shanli mostly does stand-up comedy, standing alone on the stage, just like chatting about family affairs, and will suddenly burst out wit and humor in the friendly and easy-going way, making you laugh out loud.Ma Zhiming, on the other hand, uses his profound basic skills more, combining teasing and teasing, and is neither tepid nor impatient.Slowly lead the audience into his jokes, forming his own unique charm.

Shen Fang couldn't help sighing after listening to a section of "Article Meeting": "It's really worthy of being a famous cross talker. You can see that they can make the audience laugh without being funny or talking about dirty jokes, and they can't get tired of listening to it."

"Why do I feel that they are different from Xiangwenshe?" Qin Mohan couldn't help asking the question in his heart. The two had gone to Xiangwenshe to listen to cross talk many times in Yanjing. Even though Qin Mohan heard it for the first time in Jinmen, he could feel it. the difference.

"There are some differences. Xiangwenshe's cross talk has some old traditions of entertainers in it, and it probably has something to do with what Uncle He used to practice with his master on the rivers and lakes and docks. Look at Uncle He and Uncle Xue on stage. Interact with the audience for five or six minutes, which is the rule of the past, let’s bring up the atmosphere.” Shen Fang explained to Qin Mohan: “The cross talk in Jinmen is more about cross talk in teahouses, and the focus is on strictness. The basic skills, all rely on their own strength to amuse the audience."

"How did I hear that Jinmen's cross talk doesn't wait to see Uncle He and the others." Qin Mohan looked at Shen Fang with a gossip and asked in a low voice.

Shen Fang smiled and said: "Their grievances are too much, and they can't finish talking all night. Next time, I will buy you a copy of "Master of Crosstalk", which contains details."

"Hey, let's not talk about it, and help others to advertise." Qin Mohan curled his lips and listened intently to the cross talk between the two below.

Ma Zhiming and Huang Zuming are now performing "The Tree Has No Leaves". A joke that was originally a joke is full of jokes, and the audience can't help laughing. This is the charm of cross talk in teahouses.

Shen Fang couldn't help but think, there are many times, why do everyone feel that cross talk is not funny anymore?In fact, this cross talk itself has nothing to do with it. The main reason is that cross talk still has to fit the audience. If you set yourself up high, the audience will look up at you, and the neck hurts when you look up. Who would be happy.

As the gateway to Yanjing, Jinmen, the capital of water transportation, has always been known as the northern food capital.Tianjin cuisine is even more famous for its "palace, business, hall, door, and home", that is, the main cuisines are composed of palace cuisine, commercial port cuisine, mansion cuisine, house gate cuisine and family cuisine.Among them, "Badacheng", "Nine Buildings" and "Top Ten Restaurants" are the most famous.

The "Eight Great Achievements" have already disappeared in the fireworks of history, leaving only the reputation still echoing in the word of mouth of the old Jinmen people.However, there are still many buildings in the Ninth Building.The place where Shen Fang invites him to dinner today is the Huifang Building, one of the original Ninth Buildings.

"Master Ma, please come inside." Shen Fang greeted Ma Zhiming to take his seat.

"Please!" Ma Zhiming entered with Shen Fang very politely. Just now, he was called by the younger generation in the teahouse, and he was able to take the airs. Now it is the other party who invites him to eat. It would be a bit too much if he was holding the airs.

Along with Ma Zhiming, besides his partner Huang Zuming, Zhao Yuming, who has been in touch with Shen Fang, accompanied Ma Zhiming.

Several people took their seats one after another. Ma Zhiming introduced Zhao Yuming to Shen Fang. Now Ma Zhiming is only a name in the Jinmen Music Association, and Zhao Yuming is basically in charge of other things.

Shen Fang handed the menu to Ma Zhiming: "Master Ma, it's the first time we have dinner together, and I don't know what your taboos are, and you are from Jinmen, so you can arrange this dish!"

Ma Zhiming was polite for a while, then asked about the taboos of the audience, called the waiter up, and asked her to arrange a few special dishes of Huifanglou, such as roasted beef tongue tail, braised beef nest bone, fried lake shrimp, braised dish fish Duan and so on, but what Qin Mohan likes the most is actually their family's most earthy pimple soup.

"Girl, what's the matter, Fanglou's pimple soup is not bad." Ma Zhiming watched Qin Mohan drink a small bowl, feeling unsatisfied, and asked Shen Fang to make another bowl for her.

"You're the real one, Ma." Qin Mohan wiped the soup from the corner of his mouth with a paper towel: "If it's our first time here, we definitely wouldn't order this soup."

Shen placed aside and put the half-bowl of pimple soup just filled in front of Qin Mohan: "Confucius once said: You can't get tired of fine food, and you can't get tired of fine meat. It's hard to stop eating an ordinary food to the extreme."

"Shen Fang is good, and his family has a long history." Ma Zhiming praised: "Although our cross talk school has never been seen by orthodox scholars, our understanding of eating and drinking is no less than others. Our cross talk school specializes in "On Food", "Reporting the Name of Dishes" is all about food. This Fanglou is also a place where we often discuss food."

"Yes, Master Ma said in cross talk: If you want to find a partner, go to Huifang Tower!" Shen Fang said with a smile: "This Huifang Tower is famous because of Master Ma's words."

Huifanglou's dishes are really good, with halal taste, very suitable for Qin Mohan, who is accustomed to the flavor of western Xinjiang. She ate several slices of a braised ox tongue tail.

"Master Ma, thank you for being old about the filming venue of our company's crew." Shen Fang picked up the teacup, and replaced Ma Zhiming with tea for a long time.Ma Zhiming belongs to the Hui people, and strictly restrains himself in accordance with the religious traditions, avoiding alcohol and pork.

"You don't have to be so polite, Beijing-Tianjin folk art circles are a family anyway." Ma Zhiming looked at Shen Fang, and remembered the past: "When I was studying art with Master Yang, my sister secretly stuffed me with a lot of good things." Eat." It's a cross talk story, and it's easy to tell jokes. Seeing that Shen Fang and the others were more interested, Ma Zhiming told a few interesting things about himself learning from his master, which made everyone laugh.

"Shen Fang, if you need any help in Jinmen in the future, just tell Yuming directly, and now he is holding a post in the Music Association on behalf of our cross talk school."

Shen Fang respected him and said, "I will trouble Brother Zhao in the future. Recently, we have another play to be filmed in Jinmen, and we need more characters in this play. At that time, we may have to trouble Brother Zhao to contact some Where are the actors in Jinmen?"

"That's right, that's a good relationship, and you can say hello if you have something to do." Zhao Yuming hastily replied.

After a meal, the friendship between the two parties has been connected. With the help of the Jinmen Music Association, there will be a lot of trouble during the filming. With Shen Fang's promise, Zhao Yuming also gave the actors in Jinmen more acting skills. Opportunity, win-win for both sides.

After coming out of Huifang Building, Shen Fang and Qin Mohan drove back to Yanjing. Although there was quite a lot of traffic on the Beijing-Tianjin Expressway on Friday, fortunately there was no delay due to accidents.

Qin Mohan took a nap after leaving Jinmen, and woke up before getting off the Beijing-Tianjin Expressway: "It's only an hour? Jinmen is so close to Yanjing. If Yanjing builds the Seven Ring Road one day, will it be the same as Jinmen?" connected."

"Maybe one day I can repair it to more than 20 rings." Shen Fang said with a smile: "Let me tell you a joke, saying that there is a man in Yu Province who promised his girlfriend that he would buy a house within 25 rings of Yanjing to marry her." She entered the door. His girlfriend was so moved that she agreed with her body. Later on a business trip to Yanjing, when I took a taxi, I asked the taxi driver: Where is the 25th Ring Road of Yanjing? The driver is also a Kanye, so he teased her and said: Yanjing The 7th and 8th rings are in northern Hebei, the 9th and 10th rings are in Quancheng, and the 25th rings are estimated to be in the middle of Henan Province.”

"Haha!" Qin Mohan, who had a low laugh, couldn't help laughing prettily, and glanced at Shen Fang: "In your eyes, we girls are so materialistic, right? Buying a house is still at the 25th Ring Road. Why do you Not to mention buying fifty rings, including Xijiang."

"I don't need it. My girlfriend is pure, pure and flawless, like a fairy. It is a blasphemy to compare any material with her. Her beauty is unimaginable, because her beauty has completely taken over her. It blows my imagination." Shen Fang's sweet words slowly made Qin Mohan's eyes bend, and he turned his head to stare at the car Shen Fang, the corners of his mouth couldn't hide his smile.

"Sweet words!" Qin Mohan curled his legs on the passenger seat, looked at Shen Fang who was driving, and said, "No wonder people say that they would rather believe that there are ghosts in this world than a man with such a bad mouth."

"Tch, now you don't like it?" Shen Fang joked: "I don't know who used his small cherry mouth to kiss my broken mouth reluctantly."

Qin Mohan found that he couldn't even argue with him, so she didn't want to talk to him. Seeing that she had already entered Yanjing Fifth Ring Road, she suddenly heard the little tune that Shen Fang had hummed, and she couldn't help humming:
"Ah ~ five rings,
You have one more ring than the fourth ring~"

Just humming a sentence, I couldn't help laughing: "Isn't it a bit too much for you to change the 'Song of the Peony' into the 'Song of the Five Rings' so bluntly, Mr. Jiang David will not trouble you."

"No, the composer of this song gave the copyright to the Conservatory of Music. Last time I asked Dean Zhang of the conservatory, he said that he would authorize me if I needed it."

"So you bought it with [-] million yuan." Qin Mohan sighed while resting his forehead.

"Ah... five rings...

You have one more ring than the fourth ring,
Ah...five rings...

You are one ring less than the sixth ring

......"

Later, Qin Mohan also became interested, and the two drove on the Fifth Ring Road, opened the car windows, and let the singing float in the night sky with the evening wind.Li Hui and Zhou Qi, who followed along the way, heard this brainwashing song and couldn't help humming along.
