Chapter 295 "The Rod Maker on the Wuxi River"

Chapter 290 Six "The Rod Maker on the Wuxi River"

Li Junge said with a smile: "This [-]-year-old has been keeping us in the dark. We haven't even seen this movie. Let's take us with you when the time comes. It shouldn't be bad for a movie that gets two nominations."

The old man Ikeda and Liangzi's mother chatted with Liangzi and the stripper about the life in Lijiagou. When Liangzi released the wedding video for the old man Ikeda, the old man was stunned for a while, and then wiped tears uncontrollably. After a while, he laughed happily again.

The old lady also laughed and cried.

After watching the wedding clip, Ikeda said to A Yin and Li Junge: "Liangzi has a deep love for Huang Sang, but between our two countries, alas! People in Lijiagou are very friendly, Liangzi lives very well there, and has not been affected at all. Discrimination. Thank you, thank you for your care."

After speaking, he bowed deeply to the two of them.

The two were so frightened that they hurriedly returned the salute, and A Yin said, "Old man, don't dare to act! This is what we juniors should do."

Ikeda said with a smile: "Today is a day of great joy. According to your Chinese customs, it should be called 'Huimen', right? Today I have arranged a traditional Japanese dish for you, 'Sushi Sushi', which is the ancestor of Japanese sushi. The legend is still yours." It came from China!"

The squid in the Japanese population is what the Chinese call crucian carp.

The old lady clapped her hands twice, and the apprentices came in to remove the refreshments and brought a new plate.

There are some rice balls on the bottom of the plate, and on it are slices of sliced ​​crucian carp. The cavity of the crucian carp's body is full of fish eggs.

The old man Ikeda beamed at the introduction: "This is made from the squid produced in Lake Biwa near us. It is a well-known specialty and has always been regarded as a high-end product. It's rare for you to come today, and I specially opened a barrel."

After finishing speaking, he picked up a piece with chopsticks and said: "There is a record in the Enki ceremony of the Heian period. It is said that it is located in the Omi country in Shiga Prefecture today, and the sushi sushi is used as a tribute item."

"At that time, vinegar hadn't been invented in Japan. Our ancestors selected the freshwater squid during the spawning period. The scales and gills were removed, and only the eggs were left. After cleaning, the squid was smeared with salt and put into a bucket. Put the inner lid on, and then place a heavy object on the bucket and wait for two to three months to slowly squeeze out the blood in the carp's body."

"Wait until about summer, then take the squid out of the bucket and wash it first, then fill the fish cavity with rice covered with salt, then put the squid into the bucket stuffed with rice and put it on the heavy The longer the time, the better. The sour taste in sushi comes from this.”

Then he asked Liangzi's mother, "How long has this barrel been marinated?"

Liangzi's mother said: "This bucket has been marinated for a year and a half."

The old man Ikeda greeted everyone: "Come, come, the delicious food that took two years, everyone hurry up and taste it."

The Japanese are also meticulous in their eating. A plate of sushi is distributed to each person with a small rice ball.

Li Junge has heard a few key words, "marinated", "two years", "rice", "salt", "sour taste", and he is vigilant. I also have doubts about your Japanese food.The last time I saw Liangzi eating natto, I knew it!

The others stuffed the rice balls into their mouths without knowing the severity.

Seeing that each of them had their own weird expressions, Uncle Bamboo Carpenter wanted to vomit but didn't dare to vomit, rolling his eyes and swallowing!

Uncle Wangcai's cheeks suddenly puffed up, and he quickly covered his mouth with his hands.

Lin Zhao's eyebrows, nose and eyes were wrinkled, and he sneezed rudely.

On the other hand, Ah Yin, who was still eating there, was smiling and eating with great relish.

The old man Ikeda looked like he had succeeded in teasing people: "Hahaha, many people can't stand the taste of fish sushi for the first time, huh? Miss Ayin is pretty good, have you tried it?"

Li Junge rolled his eyes and muttered in his heart, the Miao family, as long as it is sour, they think it is delicious!
Hurry up and give my piece to A Yin: "I like eating so much, come on, I'll give you my piece too!"

A Yin took it happily: "Erpi, you are so kind! This fish sushi has a special sour aroma, which is similar to the sour meat and sour fish in our Miao family. This is the first time I have eaten sour fish that is not spicy! "

Now that the Ikeda family knew that A Yin really liked this dish, they were even more happy.

As for the others, they were all slandering, and it was sour, it sounded so good, it was obviously stinky!
Li Junge nodded with a smile: "How can such delicious food be enjoyed alone? I have already thought about the gift for the return journey. Neither the pig nor the eighth woman can escape!"

Fortunately, the following dishes are all normal. Although I am still not used to it, they are all at a good level, especially the teriyaki eel, which has won unanimous praise from everyone.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day everyone went to Kyoto together, one was to arrange the orchid exhibition, and the other was to participate in watching movies.

The Tokyo Film Festival has arranged shows for each participating film, and the audience has the opportunity to watch each film.

The theater is not small, half of them are people from the Federation, and the other half are audiences who are interested in this movie.

When Li Junge saw that the theater was full, it could be seen that the Japanese still value traditional handicrafts.

There are even many young people among them.

It turns out that in addition to being interested in manga, small movies, and cosplay, Japanese youth actually like traditional handicrafts.

The lights go out and the screen comes on.

The title is an animation, a doll jumps with a plastic gun, and then aims at an apple on a milk bottle, then zooms in to a close-up, the front sight on the gun is aimed at the apple, and then pulls the trigger, "Boom", and a gun comes out Foam fist with shrink rod to knock apples down.

The doll giggled, and the camera zoomed out. It turned out to be a circle with a cross in the circle, like a cross sight. The cross divided the circle into four rooms. In each room, there was a naughty doll, with five Chinese characters next to it. Star Studio".

The title made many people laugh, Li Junge said to A Yin: "Er Zhun's title design is quite fun."

The next thing is the feature film. As soon as the picture comes out, there are a few disturbing and hectic scenes.

The opening scene is a noisy market, the sound of cars, hawking, and yelling... The background is people's busy trading, moving, and near the camera are several baskets of radishes and vegetables packed in bamboo boxes.

Next is the noodle restaurant on the street of Yuzhou, the small table is placed on the street, the sound of horns, the sound of diners ordering, the sound of the boss's promise, the background is people walking in a hurry, diners are eating noodles, the camera is close There is a small table where no one is sitting, with a chopstick tube on it and a handful of bamboo chopsticks inside.

Finally, there is the nightclub, with crazy music, dancing crowd and scattered lights in the background. A fruit plate is close-up. The fruit is cut into small dices, and a bamboo toothpick is stuck on each diced.

The music is getting more urgent, the crowd is getting wilder...

Just when the audience began to feel uncomfortable, the irritable music stopped abruptly, the picture suddenly changed, and the whole picture turned into a cloud of fog.

Then some bamboo branches and leaves appeared on both sides of the bottom of the screen, and then moved to the top of the screen, and the audience realized that the camera was still moving from top to bottom.

Then a puddle of green water appeared at the bottom of the screen, and people realized that this was a section of the steaming river surface.

The green water is clear, the mist is misty, and it looks like a fairyland.

There is no music, only the chirping of birds from the woods on the bank.

The hearts of the audience who had been irritated before suddenly calmed down, and many people even let out a comfortable "oh".

Suddenly, the bow of a small wooden boat broke through the fog, and then the figure of Uncle Bamboo Carpenter standing on the boat came out of the fog, holding a long green bamboo pole, tapping the water surface from left to right, facing the camera. Come.

Uncle Bamboo Carpenter frowned lightly, showing no expression, but he was dressed in the same attire he wore after meeting Ryoko. His thin face, vicissitudes of eyes, and low eyebrows were definitely full of the charm of a middle-aged man. I heard many little girls "wow" in the theater.

The subtitle "The Rod Maker of Wuxi River" appeared on the surface of the water, and then was deformed by the waves on the surface of the water, and then was crushed by the bow of the boat and disappeared into the water...

Li Junge held A Yin's hand tightly. This opening is okay.

Then the film starts to flashback, and the beginning is the scene of Uncle Bamboo Carpenter's wedding.

Grandma was sitting in the new house, smiling and accepting the worship from Uncle Bamboo Carpenter and Ryoko, and putting bracelets on the bride.

What followed was the joyous scene when Ikeda came to visit. There were cups of cups and cups interlacing, laughter during the art test, and the ambiguous warmth of the uncle craftsman weaving the sheep's head as a gift to his son.

Li Junge turned to look at Liangzi, Liangzi had already been deeply immersed in the atmosphere of the film, and his eyes were already full of tears.

But then, the tone of the film became more and more dignified, and the only prominent theme was "loneliness".

He sits alone in the middle of the yard straightening bamboo poles, scraping and planing bamboo branches, accompanied by only a ray of sunlight passing through the bamboo forest and a few birdsong...

He set up a stall in the countryside, and there were people coming and going around him, but no one cared about it. The only thing that accompanied him was the pile of finely woven and exquisitely carved bamboo utensils...

He was mixing glue and mixing paint in front of the dim fire, and the flames kept beating in the hearth. He was accompanied by paint sores on his arms caused by allergies...

And his difficult climb in the snow-stained forest, the wind and snow blowing his hat away, accompanied him only by the whistling mountain wind and the icicles from breathing on the edge of his beard...

Empathy, experience, the corners of many people's eyes were moist, especially the pole makers of the Federation, they were even more crying.

Liangzi took Uncle Bamboo Carpenter's hand and kissed softly on his mouth, it seemed that only in this way would he not cry out.

But no matter how downcast the bamboo craftsman is in the camera, his eyes are always the same.

Sunshine, birdsong, human voices, paint sores, wind and snow, everything can't make his dull and focused eyes move away from the bamboo.

The film clearly conveys to the audience that this person, no matter what his appearance is, no matter what his environment is, as long as he is given a bamboo, he will immediately become extremely powerful.

Lonely, desolate, poor, sick, in the face of this kind of strength, can only be crushed to pieces!
Li Junge's eyes were also wet, and he took A Yin's hand, and said in a low voice: "Bright and open, with no stains in his heart. Dirty and pure, what troubles me!"
