Chapter 4 Temperament and Cultivation
This is the first time that Bai Coralhu has entered Pangu. To be honest, it is too luxurious. Everyone in and out of the country wears bright and beautiful clothes. It is obvious that he is a successful person and puts a lot of pressure on Bai Coralhu.
However, when these successful people approached Zuo Xiaoyou, the rich man instantly became low-key. He was completely overwhelmed by Zuo Xiaoyou's temperament and momentum.
For a moment, successful people saw Zuo Xiaoyou and retreated one after another to prevent their glorious and majestic image from being suppressed.
Zuo Xiaoyou took the initiative to hold Bai Shanhu's hand and gave her a warm smile: "Don't be nervous, the people here are no more noble than anyone else. Hold your head up and your chest out, you are the future queen."
Bai Coral's eyes were moist and her delicate face was flushed. She let out a light whisper, her chest raised and her head raised. An international style that was weak but hard to bloom was revealed.
For a moment, Bai Coral's momentum gradually covered those successful people under the leadership of Zuo Xiaoyou, and no one dared to underestimate them.
Zuo Xiaoyou smiled and walked into the restaurant hand in hand.
Pangu’s buffet is very rich, and you can basically eat Chinese, Western and Japanese. There is a little bit of each of Zuo Xiaoyou, especially Western desserts, which tastes very good.
White coral is a bit awkward, I don’t know what’s good to eat. I can only choose rice based on my face and pick which one looks good.
After hundreds of years, although Zuo Xiaoyou learned to drink, he still didn't like the taste of wine, so in terms of drinks, he chose freshly squeezed juice. This is also an advantage that Bai Coral loves. She likes men who don't drink.
Although she drank by herself, she took a bottle of red wine.
"..." Zuo Xiaoyou opened the bottle of red wine with his own hands, poured half a cup, and said, "Adjust red wine can beautify the skin, but excessive amounts will not be good. Today, this half cup will be taken back to school to drink slowly."
Bai Xianghu licked her lips and nodded, "I understand."
Haven't drunk yet! What's the point of not doing?
After all, it was young and it was the first time she had a meal in such a high-end place. Bai Shanhu couldn't help but take a photo with her mobile phone. As for whether she would post a Moments or something in the future? It would be as good as she likes.
"Teacher Zuo, pick up the cake and smile."
“…”
Zuo Xiaoyou smiled helplessly, picked up the small cake, and smiled with a pursed lips.

Bai Shanhu looked at the photo effect. Zuo Xiaoyou on the screen looked wise and had a gentle temperament, just like an ancient Confucian gentleman. Bai Shanhu was obsessed with for two or three seconds and quickly calmed down. He laughed and said, "It's very handsome."
"It mainly depends on temperament." Zuo Xiaoyou said.
"Puff--" Bai Shanhu covered her mouth with her bare hands and smiled with her eyebrows and eyes: "Yes, Teacher Zuo's temperament is also first-class."
"Haha." Put the peeled prawns on a white coral plate: "Stop shooting, eat!"
"Thank you, Teacher Zuo."
Eat, drink, talk, laugh, but for a long time, the two of them were already full of food and food.
It was already seven o'clock in the evening. Zuo Xiaoyou wiped his hands with a napkin and asked, "Are you going back to school now? Or are you going to my room to sit?"
Bai Coral's face turned red. She pursed her lips and asked, "Are you just sitting?"
"Ha..." Zuo Xiaoyou knew what she was thinking and couldn't help but chuckled: "I want to try the guzheng, if I'm not afraid of the harshness."
"I want to listen." Bai Shanhu smiled with teeth: "I heard Teacher Zuo say he could play the guqin in Liangshan. I have never been able to win the sound of Tianyin, and I will not miss it today."
"I'm thankful that if you say Tianyin, it's not noise."
"Hehe, if I could hear the noise played by Teacher Zuo, I could blow in front of my friends for the rest of my life."
"You are a beauty, why are you so sinister?"
"The most toxic woman's heart is not the first time Teacher Zuo has heard of it!"
“…”
While chatting and laughing, Zuo Xiaoyou took Bai Shanhu into the room he had opened. At this time, the four guzhengs were already placed beside the bed.
"There are snacks and drinks in the cabinet, please take them yourself." Zuo Xiaoyou said, going to open the packaging of the four Guzhengs and debug the tone one by one.
Bai Shanhu was a little thirsty, so he took out a can of functional drink from the refrigerator in the room, and watched Zuo Xiaoyou debug the strings while drinking. Listening to the occasional thunderous sound, Bai Shanhu asked, "Teacher Zuo, is it so troublesome to adjust the strings?"
"If you just bounce it casually, it doesn't matter." Zuo Xiaoyou raised his head and smiled slightly: "But in order to achieve the most perfect effect of every note, you still have to carefully debug it."
He paused: "Playing the piano is also to cultivate one's own temperament and improve one's own cultivation. Don't you think that everyone is beautiful and elegant when playing the piano?"
Bai Coral was thinking: "Temperament...cultivation..."
"You are better than Hong'er in this regard." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled.
Bai Shanhu understood, and was a little embarrassed: "No, actually Hong'er is also very proud... that..."
She has no words to swear.
Yu Honger's temperament is completely 0!
Well, I wonder if funny is considered temperament?
"Temperament is very important." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "Even if the appearance is average, you can make up for it. If the appearance is like you, plus the increase in temperament, you can directly transform from a beauty into a goddess. Of course, you are already."
"Haha..." Bai Shanhu was happy: "It's okay."
"But you have to learn more and work hard to improve your cultivation." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "Only your cultivation can benefit you for life. Think about it, when other elderly people retire and can only take care of their children at home to support their children, you can write and draw books, accept various interviews, and contribute to the spiritual civilization of mankind. Do you instantly feel that you are much more high-end?"
"It's true." Bai Shanhu's eyes lit up and she asked quickly: "Teacher Zuo, how can we improve our own cultivation?"
"Reading, writing, drawing, playing chess, and playing the piano can improve one's own cultivation, and the cost is very low." Zuo Xiaoyou debugged a guzheng and said, "Okay, I'll try to play it, don't be unpleasant."
"No." Bai Shanhu sat upright: "Disciple listen carefully."
"Naughty." Zuo Xiaoyou chuckled, put the guzheng on the table, pulled a chair, and put on Yijia. His hands were clanging and playing some scattered and long notes. He felt that the tone had reached the level of satisfaction, so he pressed his hands on the strings and asked, "Have you ever heard of ancient music?"
"I've heard some." Bai Shanhu lowered her head a little ashamed: "I can't appreciate it very much, I don't listen carefully."
Zuo Xiaoyou was not surprised and smiled and said, "I think it doesn't sound good?"
"It's not bad." Bai Shanhu pondered the words and said, "I just think the ancient song is slow and I want to go to bed after listening to it."
"Young people are passionate and active, but they can't hear the Qingyuan voice, which is understandable." Zuo Xiaoyou nodded and said, "But as you grow older and experience grows, when you calm down and listen carefully, I believe you will have a different feeling."
Apart from nodding, Bai Coralhu didn't know what to say.
"Listen." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly, and played a series of passionate notes in a climax. Bai Shanhu was instantly excited: "Smiling, Proud Wanderer!"
This is the zither and flute ensemble in the 1996 version of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer". It can be said that although this version of "The Smiling, Proud Wandererererer" is not satisfactory in the choice of some actors, the Smiling, Proud Wanderererererer of the zither and flute ensemble has become an eternal classic, no less than the movie version of the sea of laughter.
When I first heard the music of the zither and flute ensemble, Zuo Xiaoyou was amazed for a long time. After so many years, I still thought it was a classic score that would never be surpassed.
Similarly, although Bai Shanhu was very young when she watched this TV series, she had a deep memory of the Smiling and Proud Wanderer song played by the Qin and Xiao. She could not forget it after listening to it once. It was really good to hear it so much that she cried.
At this time, when I heard Zuo Xiaoyou's playing, the name of the song blurted out.
Zuo Xiaoyou stopped and smiled and said, "This is a modern ancient song, which is a good song. But it is passionate and full of spirit, which is more suitable for young people to listen to. Older people like to be more melodious, such as this."
Zuo Xiaoyou played a slow and melodious tune again. But this time Bai Shanhu only listened calmly for more than ten seconds, and his face became a little impatient.
The sound of the zheng stopped, and the left and right hands were placed on the strings. He whispered: "Do you think it's ugly?"
"Teacher Zuo, I don't understand." Bai Shanhu frowned slightly: "The second paragraph is really not as good as the Smiling Proud Wanderer!"
"It's not as good as the Smiling Proud Wanderer." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled faintly: "But this is like our ink paintings, which emphasizes artistic conception rather than pursuing similarity. No matter how true the paintings are, can you compare to the real camera? Do you know how many Western painters in the world are so poor that they can't get rid of the blame?"
"Well……"
"But ink paintings are different. Because we pay more attention to artistic conception, their value will not only not depreciate, but will continue to appreciate. You go online to check the calligraphy and paintings of famous people. Millions or tens of millions are no longer new. Some people even spend more than 100 million yuan to a calligraphy and painting. This is the value of artistic conception and ink painting."
"But what does this have to do with Guqu?" Bai Shanhu asked.
"Ancient songs are like ink and wash, and they are all pursuits of artistic conception." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "In fact, we ancient Chinese people were all artists. Not only are they piano, chess, calligraphy and painting art, but even cooking is also art."
"Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are art, I have nothing to say. But how can cooking be art?" Bai Shanhu shook her head: "I don't believe it."
"Foreigners cook simply, but our Chinese food is not." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "Think about it, what is the most important thing about Chinese cuisine? Don't say you don't know, you must have heard of it."
"Um..." Bai Shanhu thought about it carefully and said tentatively: "Whole color, fragrance and taste?"
"Don't be afraid." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled and said, "You are right, it's all about color, fragrance and taste."
"Hu..." Bai Shanhu patted her chest: "I was shocked."
Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head: "Stealing education has harmed a generation, and even students have no idea of their own."
"That's it." Bai Shanhu agreed very much: "When the teacher was giving a lecture, he asked some questions casually. None of the classmates in our class dared to answer them. They were waiting for the teacher to give the answers themselves, for fear of saying something wrong. It was only in the past two years that I had slowly corrected it."
"We won't complain about domestic education." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "Let's talk about the artistic nature of cooking."
"You said." Bai Shanhu listened carefully.
"What else do I say when you do this?" Zuo Xiaoyou said helplessly, "Just think about whether our Chinese chefs are good at cooking? Cut vegetables, stir spoons, catch fire in the pot, and the shape after filling the plate. Is the whole process beautiful?"
"Beautiful." Bai Coral nodded, there was nothing to say.
“Is the cooking process of foreign chefs beautiful?”
"Uh..." (To be continued.)
