Because of the chaos in Xia Tian, ​​the city was desolate for a while.There was a telegram from Jinling, then an interview, and then various instructions.All in all, it is something to stabilize the situation and appease the people.Slowly, everyone saw that there was no danger of fighting again, so they returned to their previous appearance.Shops and businesses, schools and private schools are gradually opening as usual.The rich first tried to hold small church meetings at home, inviting one or two actors, and singing a cappella without any costumes.Later, seeing that the situation was stable, it returned to the old way.

The opera garden gradually became popular again, but it was not as good as before.Famous actors have more or less contacts with their superiors. After a battle is over, the structure of the military and political circles will inevitably change.It is inconvenient for the corner of the class to sing in the city, so it is natural to go to other places to go to acupuncture points.It's getting closer, it's Weiyang.Further away, there are places like Chang'an, Luocheng, Licheng, and Shengtian.Thinking that he was capable, he took all his belongings and went to Jiangcheng. Shenjiang went to such a prosperous place to sell the gold caves and make a fortune.

Don't mention other jobs, just talk about them: Ye Xiaodie and Yang Qinghan went to the south, He Cuixian lost her voice, Qin Meixiang had a cough in autumn, Cao Xiaoxiang was busy teaching the children... forcibly leaving the boss a space for the younger generation files.All of a sudden, many opera singers who were unsuccessful in the past but also sang well had a chance to make their mark.

Xiao Yurong is one of them.He is young, good-looking, and has a beautiful voice. Although he is not as popular as older famous actors for a while, he has taught many fans to remember him.And because he and Wu Zhiying became husband and wife, it was the time when Yan Er was newly married.The two of them sang "Dragon and Phoenix" on the stage, with their bodies and eyes, every step of the way.There are lovers on the stage, and young couples off the stage. The world is reversed, and it is also a natural marriage.For a while, it attracted people to talk about it, but it actually rushed to the posture of becoming popular.

Everyone is very happy when the hard times see light.Wu Zhiying was only working in Hechun class, so Bao Yin was calculated according to normal, but he earned a lot more than Xiao Yurong.The fact that she officially went to sea to sing an opera made Wu Lianrui very angry.But after being ill, I slowly thought about it.The children of the Liyuan, if you don't enter the Liyuan, where can you go?

After saving a little money, the husband and wife went to the Qin residence and wanted to pay back the money.Qin Meixiang didn't accept it, but told Xiao Yurong not to give up studying opera even if she became popular.He bluntly asked Xiao Yurong if she wanted to worship Yang Qinghan as her master.This master is not a drama teacher who talks about drama in the class, but the kind who has a serious master's inheritance and will pass on to apprentices in the future.Yang Qinghan is an officially registered master in the troupe, which is very different from the kind of master who guides apprentices who are not popular in small groups.Xiao Yurong was overjoyed, but after she was overjoyed, she hesitated again.

It was rumored that Yang Qinghan's conditions for accepting apprentices were extremely harsh.He became popular at the age of 20, and for more than 30 years in a flash, among the disciples officially admitted to the temple, apart from a senior disciple who died young, there was only one Qin Meixiang.Yang Qinghan's school, which is called Su School in theory, is a very small school in Liyuan, but its inheritance has always been continuous, and it has high requirements for the talents of its disciples.Therefore, although the sect is not obvious, there have been famous actors who have been extremely popular for generations.It has been passed down to Qin Meixiang's generation, which is the seventh generation.

With a master's inheritance, it means that he has entered the pedigree of Liyuan Xing, and it means that he officially has a place in this industry.Xiao Yurong thought about it when she was daydreaming, but she just thought about it.When it was really close in front of his eyes, he was rather timid.For him, singing is not so much pursuing something, as it is just for a bowl of food.The best day he can think of is what he is doing right now, with a family, a loving wife, and a child soon.His task is to sing opera desperately, get through these five years earlier, so that he can teach his family to live a good life.He also knows what he is capable of, he has a good voice, but he doesn't have basic body skills.Nowadays they all sing Huashan Opera, and Tsing Yi singing blindly hugging their stomachs is out of fashion.But his kung fu and water sleeves are just mediocre.Even though Qin Meixiang treated him well and was willing to cultivate him, he still felt that he was not good enough.There is Dongting Lake between him and Boss Qin.

Qin Meixiang saw his inferiority complex, so she didn't say much, just told him to go back and get ready.As soon as Yang Qinghan came back, he took him over to visit.To be honest, Qin Meixiang herself was not completely sure.But these years, Yang Qinghan has often expressed the intention of taking another apprentice, and often said that if the eldest disciple hadn't died young, at least Qin Meixiang could take care of him.In short, success or failure depends on Xiao Yurong's fate.

Wu Zhiying's body has been around for more than four months, and she can't see it yet.She won't be able to go on stage until she becomes pregnant in a few months.After giving birth, I have to take care of the child in confinement, and the hard days are behind me.Qin Meixiang was a little worried about them.In his eyes, Xiao Yurong was just a child, confused, and knew nothing but singing.He is a child himself, why is he raising a child?

After sending off the young couple, the time is almost up.Qin Meixiang coughed a few times, got up and put on her coat, planning to go out.There was a sound of a car outside the courtyard, and his hand on the cloak paused.

Sure enough, within a short while, Xu Pingshan came in with two big baskets of white pears.

Qin Meixiang bit her lip lightly, feeling a little worried.Two people now, let's talk about lovers, it doesn't count; talk about friends, it doesn't count.He understood Xu Pingshan's thoughts, but if he was asked to respond, there was always a hurdle in his heart that he couldn't overcome.

During the time when Xu Pingshan was recovering from his injuries, Qin Meixiang occasionally chatted with the people around him, and only then did he know that the man had said a total of three sentences when he was injured.The first sentence is to scold the enemy's ancestors for three generations; the next sentence is to explain how to retreat; the last sentence is, in case something happens to him, when he is buried, Qin Meixiang's close-fitting clothes will be put in the coffin.

This sounds like a silly statement, but Qin Meixiang had heard it mentioned before that there was such a custom in the other side of the pass.This is usually the case between husband and wife, implying that Quan Xia is also a husband and wife, and there is an appointment in the next life.Then I remembered Xu Pingshan's saying, life is his man, death is his ghost.

He didn't ask Qin Mei Xiangle if she was happy.

But in the dead of night, when Qin Meixiang thought of this, she always felt tight in her chest.He knew very well what would happen if he was tempted in such a relationship.There are so many lessons learned.The world is like this, and people can't help it.Every time Xu Pingshan takes a step closer, he is one step closer to the abyss that is beyond redemption.

Xu Pingshan was just obsessed with this appearance.But he is not.If it hadn't been for the fact that he had already moved his heart, how could Yao Jiatang be so painful that night.

It took him so long to figure it out.

In the end, there was only a wry smile left.Yang Qinghan was his master, who taught him how to sing and how to be a man, but he still couldn't learn a single bit of master Yang's free and easy style.

These unspoken and fruitless feelings are just a burden to him.

In the end, I can only pretend that none of this happened.

Xu Pingshan will never take back the things sent over, even if he refuses.

He wanted to sigh again: "I can't finish it...Leave it for nothing, it will go bad."

Xu Pingshan didn't care at all: "Save it and eat slowly. Is your cough better today?"

Qin Meixiang nodded.Mama Xu sent a pot of Sydney honey to drink.Xu Pingshan naturally took it and carried it, and got into the car with Qin Meixiang, and went to the theater.

Today is the premiere of Xiao Yulin's "Money Leopard".Hui Xiang also came on stage to play the role of Miss Tang who was robbed.Fearing that the scene would be deserted, Yu Dongrong booked a third of the seats and placed flower baskets in a row at the door.Xu Pingshan thought at first that the young master was holding Huixiang, but he was really surprised when he found out that it was Xiao Yulin.The box was reserved, but Qin Meixiang didn't sit with him, but went backstage first.

Xiao Yulin was concentrating on hooking his face there.This play was originally Jingxing's play, and later became Wusheng, and Wu Jing played both roles.In Wu Lianrui's generation, because he acted so well as a martial artist, few people dared to compete with him, and gradually he became a martial artist.Just because he wanted to play a vicious goblin, the facial makeup program was kept.This play can also be regarded as Xiao Yulin's debut play, so Wu Lianrui left his team and played in person to play Monkey King for him.

Originally, this play was Wu Lianrui's specialty.Although the leopard spirit is the protagonist, the Monkey King who fights with him is also very important.But because of his temper, the supporting actors came and went, and it became more and more unsatisfactory.Because there are dangerous techniques such as flying forks and throwing gongs in the play, if the two actors do not cooperate properly, accidents are bound to happen on stage.There was such an incident ten years ago, when Fei Cha hit the supporting actor, it made Zuoer startled and angry.It was a good sign, but it was smashed.Wu Lianrui is a shameless person, and he will never act in this play again.

Now he is willing to be a green leaf and concentrate on praising his apprentice, which makes others sigh.Leader Cao said bluntly: "If you had such a mind back then, why have you been lonely for all these years..."

Wu Lianrui sighed, but still refused to admit it: "If they have half the skills of my apprentice, I will give them a grandson in exchange!"

This is a compliment to Xiao Yulin, and it is also a compliment to himself.He didn't care if he said this, so as not to offend others.Others knew that he had such a bad temper that was proud of his talents, so he laughed dryly and stopped talking.

Qin Meixiang said a few words of encouragement to Xiao Yulin, but she was not as worried as Yu Dongrong was.He is an expert and knows the skills of Xiao Yulin and Wu Lianrui.It's a pity that the timing is not good enough, if Xiao Yulin can be in this scene at the beginning of the new year, maybe Xiao Yulin can really become a hit.But it's not a bad thing to come steadily.

Compared with Xiao Yulin, he was more worried about Huixiang.It's been almost a year since this kid was out of school. At first, everyone saw it as fresh, and he was still somewhat popular.But slowly, not only did the popularity not rise, but it went down.It is said that he has worked hard in learning opera, and the class also praised him deliberately.Even if it can't be very popular, it shouldn't be the way no one cares about it now.

Hui Xiang sat alone in front of the dressing table to apply rouge.Seeing Qin Meixiang coming over, he forced a smile: "Brother."

Qin Meixiang turned around and coughed twice, picked up a pen and drew eye circles with him.After drawing, gently hold his face and let him open his eyes to look in the mirror.Because of the makeup, the person in the mirror is no longer as listless as before.Huixiang stared at herself for a while, and there was a nasal sound in her voice: "Senior Brother draws better..."

Qin Meixiang sighed: "Take it easy. You have put on makeup, and you have to do it all over again. Wait for you to sing for a few more years, maybe you can draw better than me. What happened recently? Master Cao is very worried about you, you And he refuses to talk to him." As she said this, she kept holding his face in her hands, drawing a pot of cigarettes to draw his eyebrows with him.

Hui Xiang was silent for a long while: "I feel that I... the patriarch did not appreciate the meal."

Qin Meixiang stopped writing, carefully looked at his eyebrows on both sides, then put down the pen, and comforted: "Those who eat our bowl of rice will become popular after one show, and some will slowly become famous while singing. You work so hard , and the ancestors are all in this business, how many people have passed?"

Hui Xiang shook her head: "It's because of this that I feel that I can't do it. Others don't have these things, they are equally popular, and people go to see them...Look at Yang Yinxian..."

Qin Meixiang looked at him with serious eyes: "Don't compare yourself with him, he is not the right way."

"But……"

Qin Meixiang put down the pen: "You want to say that I'm also that popular, don't you?"

Hui Xiang hurriedly shook her head: "No, no... Dad said, you are the opposite. Because you are popular, that's why... Brother, don't be angry..."

"I'm not angry." Qin Meixiang dipped in bright red paint and painted his lips: "I heard your voice seems a little dark recently?"

Huixiang nodded: "Father said that at this age, the voice will change, and the appearance will gradually change from before..." He said dejectedly: "Others are getting better and better, but I am getting worse and worse." He bowed his head Look at my little belly, it's round and round.

This is what's really on his mind.Some things are up to God's will, and God has the final say on what it looks like.

Qin Meixiang touched his belly, and Huixiang's flesh shrank back.

"Didn't I tell you to eat less?"

"I'm hungry and dizzy after eating too little, and I can't keep up when I sing..." Hui Xiang was extremely wronged: "I get fat even after drinking cold water..."

From top to bottom, the Cao family has a rich figure.And they all have a good appetite, love to eat rice, meat, snacks, pastries and melons.Qin Meixiang didn't believe that Hui Xiang just drank cold water, look at that radiant face.But he also knew that it was extremely uncomfortable to be hungry, and at Huixiang's age, she was still growing.

But Huixiang's worry is not without reason.His voice and appearance are indeed not to the audience's appetite now.In the early days, because of her young age, she had a sweet voice and a beautiful appearance.Now these advantages are gone, and the figure has begun to thicken.With such conditions, it is no wonder that the more he sings, the more confident he becomes.

Qin Meixiang thought for a while, then said cautiously: "Hui Xiang, have you ever thought about changing your career?"

Hui Xiang shook her head: "I grew up in Tsing Yi in primary school, and I only knew how to sing dan roles, where can I change to?"

"When you sealed the box at the end of last year, you played a role as a niche for a while, isn't it very good."

Huixiang was a little taken aback.That was indeed the time he had received the most applause since he took the stage.But the cross-dressing is just for lively and festive, not serious.

Qin Meixiang got up to put a photo on him, and patted him on the shoulder: "There is still a long way to go, don't get discouraged at the beginning."

Hui Xiang came back to her senses and nodded seriously.

Qin Meixiang returned to the box, and saw Yu Dongrong sitting in the opposite box with a few business friends, talking and laughing happily.The man turned his head abruptly, saw Qin Meixiang, nodded and laughed.Qin Meixiang smiled too, as if she had greeted her from a distance.

Xu Pingshan stared at Yu Dongrong thoughtfully for a moment: "The young master is quite elegant, after holding this and that..."

Qin Meixiang said lightly: "Master Qi has always sponsored a lot in the Liyuan tour." He talked to Huixiang for a long time, but now he coughed again.Xu Pingshan handed him some tea and pressed it for him: "Hurry up and change to a few more doctors tomorrow. Foreigners are good at treating trauma, but they are not good at treating the symptoms of exhaustion."

Qin Meixiang drank a few sips of warm tea and took a little breath: "It's just that the weather in autumn is dry and I don't get used to it for a while. It will be fine after a while."

In autumn, when everyone else is fat, he still looks thin.There seems to be no place between the eyebrows, and there is always a little sadness.

When Xu Pingshan looked at him before, he only felt that he was polite and distant, which made people feel anxious that he had nowhere to speak.After going through life and death several times, I spoke out frankly, seeing his expression that seemed to be crying but not crying, but slowly tasted something else.

Qin Meixiang was not happy.He slowly let go of the shell, revealing this unhappiness to himself, which was actually much better than the way he always greeted him with a smile.At least he was willing to face himself with a true face.

In the past, I listened to people's storytelling, talking about the beacon fire and the princes, just to make the Bomei people laugh.Xu Pingshan was extremely puzzled before, but now he can understand seven or eight points.If he can show off Qin Meixiang's beauty, he may not know what he will do.Since ancient times, the hero is sad about the beauty, and the old saying always has its truth.

At this stage, Xu Pingshan really regretted the stupid things he did that night at the Yaojiatang meeting.Who did Qin Meixiang have with in the past? After all, it was all in the past.He wanted his people, his heart, for the sake of the future relationship between the two.He was originally a man with a big heart, but he lost his head on this matter alone.If you want to be sincere with others, you must show the appearance of sincere friendship.

But when he came back to this feeling, it seemed to be too late.

So far, there is no other way to think of it except for 12 to watch patiently.Occasionally, he also wondered what good Qin Meixiang was.Do you look good?Yes, but there are too many beauties.Turning off the light and hugging him on the bed, that was actually the case.So in fact, this person's goodness is more of a thing under the surface.But he insisted on saying it, but he couldn't say anything.The word love is really the biggest unreasonable thing in the world.

It can only be attributed to one thing and one thing, and tofu in brine.

His heart, Xu Pingshan, was taken by Boss Qin.

The gongs and drums were blaring on the stage, and Xiao Yulin appeared majestically, holding the lapel of his cloak.The audience immediately shouted "Hello" - they were all arranged by Yu Dongrong.Xiao Yulin's eyes were fierce and fierce, and he flicked his clothes, and said: "Leopard-headed tiger with fierce clothes, and in front of Hongmei Mountain, he is the king!" His voice was like a bell, and his heart was full of energy.When he read: "Thousands of goblins in the cave, they roared fiercely and shook the mountain." When the last three words were like three thunderbolts, they shook people's hearts.The people who responded to him below were full of enthusiasm - the people arranged by Young Master Yu Qi were overwhelmed by the applause from the seats.

Qin Meixiang admired softly: "From now on, he is Boss Zhou."

Xu Pingshan was amazed: "You're a brat, you haven't shown your style yet, how did you become Boss Zhou?"

When Qin Meixiang saw Xiao Yulin's spirit, she felt that the cloud-like melancholy in her heart was swept away.He said with a rare smile: "This kid doesn't know timidity at all, he regards himself as a heavenly king... With this kind of spirit, whether he is popular today or not, he is Boss Zhou. Didn't you see that he opened his mouth just now?" , the bodies of the seats below were all shaken?"

Xu Pingshan broke through from the hail of bullets, unlike ordinary people.No matter how big the momentum on the stage is, it can't scare him.But Boss Qin's smile made him dizzy.

Looking at each other, Qin Meixiang's smile faded away.Xu Pingshan stared at him for a while, then stretched out his hand to hold his cold hand: "Wait for you to tell me."

All the light in the opera garden is on the stage, but it is dark in the box.Xu Pingshan asked this very softly, but Qin Meixiang could still hear clearly amidst the loud drumbeat.He was silent for a while, and his voice was also soft: "Life is too short to enjoy yourself in time, isn't it enough?"

Xu Pingshan was stunned for a while before he could figure out the meaning behind his words.So there are all five flavors in my heart, which is complicated and unspeakable.

Qin Meixiang looks gentle and amiable, but she is actually a fierce person in her bones.Xu Pingshan has already seen it once, and doesn't want to see it a second time.

He also understood it.Blindly using force can only end up in pieces.But once she withdraws, Qin Meixiang will disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye.But in the current situation, in the final analysis, he can only blame himself if he wants to blame.

So he took his hand back and sighed, "What are you talking about?"

This time it was Qin Meixiang's surprise.He looked sideways at Xu Pingshan for a long while, only to see that he was staring at the stage absent-mindedly, with a rare gloomy expression on his face.

He silently curled up his fingers that had lost warmth, and turned his gaze to the stage again.

Unexpectedly, after a while, Xu Pingshan stretched out his hand again and hugged him.Qin Meixiang was hugged by him, her expression softened.

The box at this end was silent.In the box at the other end, Yu Dongrong watched the play with trepidation.

In this leopard play, many famous martial arts actors have actually acted. The lyrics are the same, but the kung fu displayed on the stage has its own merits.If Xiao Yulin wants to be popular, he has to show off something new.

Sure enough, when I saw Miss Deng for the first time, I saw him flying down from the high table, leaping over the little leopards, with a fierce aura and a snappy air.This is something that no one has ever seen before, and it immediately won a lot of favor.In the following scenes, whether it is bashing the tent or flying across the table, it is done in one go without any pause.In the final highlight, the flying fork, the two warriors first threw the fork to join the fork, and then Wu Lianrui turned over from the height of three tables first.Yu Dongrong looked at it strangely, because there was also a high chair tied to the top of the three high tables.Before he allowed him to figure it out, he saw Xiao Yulin climb up without a single hesitation, step on the back of the chair lightly, and fall down with one hand.It landed quickly, without even making a sound.This height is four and a half tables.The audience immediately applauded like a fried nest.

Yu Dongrong shuddered, paused for a moment, stood up abruptly, and shouted hello to him with all his strength.

The play ended amidst such roaring applause.There were shouts from the ground: Zhou Yulin, Wu Lianrui... In the end, the one calling Zhou Yulin overwhelmed the one calling Wu Lianrui.Yu Dongrong shouted hoarsely, sat down after a long time, took a breath, and smiled heartily.

After the show, everyone was overjoyed.The manager of the theater followed behind Xiao Yulin, flattering: "From now on, the martial arts show will be the top card of your Boss Zhou..."

Xiao Yulin was quite calm: "Master taught me well. I haven't mastered Kungfu yet."

Wu Lianrui waved his hands again and again: "When you learn home, I will starve to death." Everyone knows the old saying: teach the apprentice, starve to death the master.Although Wu Lianrui said this, his eyes were full of smiles.He is very proud today.No matter how popular and famous Xiao Yulin is in the future, he will also be Wu Lianrui's apprentice.

Others couldn't see it, and echoed repeatedly, saying auspicious words.

Wu Lianrui said with satisfaction: "When you become popular, I can rest."

As soon as he said this, some people were happy, but some people's expressions changed.How long has it been since Lian Xi Ban was established? Qin Meixiang coughed for more than half a month, and the audience has already been reduced by half.Wu Lianrui left his team behind and ran to Hechun troupe with the supporting martial arts students to praise his apprentices.It doesn't matter once he's gone, what do the people below rely on for food?So each had their own concerns, and He Xi's words were not so sincere anymore.Others could hold back the conversation because of face, Wu Zhikun immediately flicked his face, and walked away with a cold snort.

Yu Dongrong stood far away at the entrance of the stage, watching everyone's expressions lightly and clearly.He frowned, and quickly put on a smile on his face.When Xiao Yulin saw him, he finally couldn't hold back his poise.He made a face at Young Master Yu Qi from a distance.

Yu Dongrong was amused by him, and he raised his arms and called out: "Don't leave, I'll treat you to dinner tonight!"

Whether everyone is happy or not, everyone's brows are filled with joy: "Qi Ye is open!"

When walking outside, Yu Dongrong clung to Xiao Yulin's ear, gritted his teeth, and said, "Three tables and one chair are really emboldened."

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Xiao Yulin suddenly tilted his head and pecked Yu Dongrong's face: "No need to eat, I am a leopard today, sir." After speaking, he walked briskly to help Wu Lianrui carry his luggage.

It took Yu Dongrong a long time to recover and touched his face.This brat!It's the other way around!Why hasn't he come out of the play yet!

So I made up my mind to have a good talk with him when I go back tonight.
