这些天文城里《繁花》盛开，一朵又一朵在城头绽放。不由得又想起木心的《上海赋》，于是想与众文友再次分享。
知道木心是九十年代在美国，一位台湾朋友提及他时一脸的仰慕。我在一旁惭愧不已：学中文的，不知道大陆出来这么好的作家啊！直到新世纪，《上海文学》刊载了木心的《上海赋》，再一晃2006年，广西师范大学出版社出版了木心的《哥伦比亚的倒影》。那时中国知道他的人寥寥，出版社甚至额外加印一本小册子。专门介绍木心。

木心郑重其事告诉你：“大都会的文明只在西区，花园洋房高尚公寓，法国夜总会，林中别墅，俱乐部，精致豪奢直追欧美一流。而南、北、东三区以及中区的部分，大多数人家没有煤气，没有冰箱，没有浴缸抽水马桶。。。。每当天色微明粪车隆隆而来，状如巨大的黑棺材，有一张公差形的阔脸的执役者扬声高喊：咦唉。。。。于是各楼层的张师母李太太赵阿姨，王家姆妈欧阳小姐朱老先生，个个一手把住楼梯的栏杆一手拎着沉重的便桶四楼三楼二楼的下来。”
in English: "真是妙笔生花呀！ 木心还告诉你，要成为“正牌”上海宁，大有讲究：“一牌头，二派头，三噱头”。牌头是靠山，派头是衣着举止，有了派头才能进入噱头。官场商场情场赌场舞场，无一不是噱头世界。印证在市井百姓家，先生噱太太，少爷噱少奶奶，父母噱儿女。。。“巧言令色是噱功好，貌似忠厚是噱功更好。骂年轻人小滑头，他不生气，骂年长者老滑头，他不见怪”。“上海人一字以蔽之：噱”"

What a skillful and eloquent expression!
Mu Xin also advises on the intricacies of becoming an authentic Shanghainese, stating, "One needs a 'pai' for support, 'paitou' for demeanor, and 'juxtou' for gimmicks." The 'pai' represents backing, 'paitou' involves attire and behavior, and with these in place, one can delve into the realm of gimmicks. Whether in official circles, business, romance, gambling, or dancing, every sphere is a world of gimmicks. This is exemplified in the households of common people, where there are Mr. Gimmick and Mrs. Gimmick, Young Master Gimmick and Young Mistress Gimmick, parents with their gimmicky children. "Artful words and captivating looks are good gimmicks, appearing loyal and honest is an even better gimmick. Call a young person a little rascal, and they won't get upset; call an older person an old rascal, and they won't take offense." "One word encapsulates the essence of a Shanghainese: 'juxtou'."
