Chapter 124 Twin Geisha
After sitting for a while, the little boy who led the way came out again and said at the table: "Masters, the food and drink are ready, please move to the dining room for dinner." Feeling bored, they all got up and followed the boy to the restaurant.

Naturally, he didn't come here to eat. After eating in a hurry, he returned to the hall, only to find that the seat he was sitting just now had been taken by someone else, and it was the person who came in at the last table.

It is true that sitting in the corner is not as clear as sitting in the middle, but if you make a noise because of one seat, it is unavoidable to be laughed at, anyway, it is the first row, and the guide boy kept apologizing, so they had to sit at the table in the farthest corner. Feeling a little depressed, Xian Ge picked up a fresh jujube on the table and bit it bitterly, and glared at the people at the next table, but those people just pretended not to see, and they all sang in the stands together.

Also had to give up.

The male and female characters on that stage finally sang a few words, and the play finally came to an end, and both of them left the stage.

At this time, there were no empty seats in the stands.

Sure enough, the city of Tokyo was overcrowded, and it was already full at this time.

The previous show was just a warm-up show. After everyone was seated, the good show would be presented. Sure enough, the chandelier on the audience side was pulled by the rope and slowly moved back. Someone upstairs extinguished the candles, leaving only a few lights on the stage. .

At the point of the light, a string of pipa plucked strings sounded faintly and faintly. Before everyone recovered, strings of plucked strings sounded one after another, like pearls pouring out, but they could only hear the sound, but not see it. People, the whole hall was attracted by the sound of the pipa at this time, all kinds of noise stopped immediately and fell silent.

The shadow of a female dancer is vaguely shown on the whole curtain, and is surrounded by a circular aperture, like a fairy in the moon, dancing gracefully with the rhythm of the pipa, and the lights behind the curtain are getting brighter and brighter , the figure of the maiko is printed on the curtain more clearly, the sound of the pipa is continuous, sometimes tactful like a pair of warblers whispering, sometimes agitated like a hundred birds contending, the shaft pulls the strings, the sound is like a complaint, the air in a hall seems to condense, Everyone is listening intently, indulging in the melodious pipa music, accompanied by the dancing figure behind the curtain, everyone has a story in their hearts that suits the situation of this song.

In the middle of the song, the strings were suddenly tuned higher and faster, the curtain was gradually withdrawn to one side with the sound of jingling gold and jade, the lights in front of the stage were turned on again, and finally the whole picture of the maiko could be seen, which really lived up to expectations.

I saw the maiko on the stage with childish eyebrows and eyes, slender waist, skin that was as snowy as snow, rosy complexion due to dancing, faint sweat on the forehead and nose, arousing pity.A pair of beautiful eyes seem to have infinite affection, looking forward to radiance, and under the shadow of the lamp, the colorful cloaks of the clothes are flying, radiant...

Finally, the curtains were completely withdrawn, and the pipa player also appeared in front of everyone. If you look carefully, you can see that he has the same appearance and figure as the maiko, and his clothes are also the same. At this time, the appearance is intoxicated in the music, shining like a fairy in a picture.

If these two dance together, or if they play together, it will be difficult for the viewer to distinguish.

The last note fell, the music stopped and the dance stopped, all the lights on the stage were turned off, and in the darkness, the footsteps were heard gently.

The audience came back to their senses and responded with thunderous applause.

Someone was whispering, "I haven't seen these two girls before, when did you come here?"

"This Cangxiang Pavilion has unexpected surprises after the test every year. I didn't expect that this year it turned out to be a pair of twin sisters..."

"I don't know what kind of sky-high price this year will be... Two people! Or twin sisters..."

"Do you know what your name is?"

"It's also the first time I've seen it, how do I know the name..."

……

In the dimly lit auditorium, there was another person at the next table who was about to move. He stood up and was about to climb up the stage. He probably wanted to follow him to the backstage. He was persuaded by a few young men in uniform black clothes standing in front of the stage. Said: "Guest officer, please be safe and don't be impatient. After a while, the madam will come out and say something."

Sure enough, the chandelier in the auditorium was lit again, the rope twitched and slowly returned to the top of the head, and the hall was bright again, as was the state on the stage.The madam stepped onto the stage, and behind him a man dressed as a servant set up a high chair and brought tea, as if she still had a lot to say.

The madam sat on it calmly, glanced at the people present, and said: "Guest officials, it's rare for you to come to my Cangxiang Pavilion to join me in your busy schedule. I, Xing Huahong, thank you here."

Speaking of this, he stood up and gave a blessing to the audience, and someone from the audience laughed strangely and said, "You bastard, why are you pretending to be gentle here! Let's talk about the prices of these two girls! Bu"

Someone immediately agreed: "Yes, let me introduce you! What's your name, how old is it? What's the price?"

The madam didn't answer with a smile, twisted her fat body slightly, sat back on the chair again, and said: "These two girls are the treasures of our shop, they just came to my shop yesterday, and they made their first appearance today, everyone, how can I help you?" It’s really a feast for the eyes and ears!”

Pick up the teacup on the high table, lift the lid, brush off the tea leaves, and take a sip.

The people below the stage were not happy again, and said: "You old bustard, stop teasing the men, talk quickly."

The bustard put down the teacup, glanced winkingly at the audience, but spat: "It's just too late, it's still early in the evening, so why bother!"

Someone in the audience said: "Then what kind of tricks are you playing this year? Let people come out so early?"

The bustard said: "If you want to talk about playing tricks, there are indeed some tricks, but I didn't come up with them, but the two sisters came up with it."

This time I did not let everyone urge me, and continued: "These two girls are named Lianhua and Lianyue. They are sixteen years old. They have learned dance and pipa since they were young. Both of them are good at both skills, and they can perform interchangeably. "

"Besides, both of them are literate, especially good at poetry. Most of the people sitting here today are masters of Juren, and even masters of Jinshi in a few days. Therefore, Lianhua and Liyue want everyone to compose their dances and pipa. The two poems will be judged by the two of them, and the one who wins the first prize will be the guest of the two."

"However, here I want to declare that the two of them are not my girls, they just borrowed my Cangxiang Pavilion to make a name, and my Cangxiang Pavilion is a business place. I don't know whether to write poems or do it. This will be beneficial, so today, all masters and young masters who want to participate in poetry, need to come to me to pay the registration fee, 200 taels of silver per person, those who think they are not as good as others, don’t waste this money, you can give it to me. You can transfer to other halls for free to find other fun, and those who participate in the poetry competition will stay in this hall, the pens, inks, papers and inkstones are all ready, and you can start now."
