The "Golden Leopard" hit a big hit, which accidentally brought the whole martial arts scene to the fore again.In the past, there was a rule of before and after in the ranking.Lao Sheng is the first to be promoted, Tsing Yi is the second, and Wu Sheng is the third.Later, Danjiaoer gained the momentum to surpass the old students, and the top card was taken in turn.Now that it is so popular, Wu Sheng's limelight is about to compete with the previous two professions. 360 lines, the rules are all set by people.What to put on the top card, in the final analysis, is up to the seat to decide.So all the teams that can perform martial arts dramas hung up martial arts dramas while it was hot, hoping to take advantage of this east wind to catch fire.

After all, Wu Lianrui was old, no matter how advanced his skills were, he still couldn't bear such exhaustion.He has a quick temper, but he has a clear view of his profession, and he is very measured in handling the affairs of the play.He accompanied Xiao Yulin to play the leopard for a few days, and took advantage of this enthusiasm to let Xiao Yulin perform a few monkey plays and Wu Song plays, which were very popular.Later, these tricks were suddenly stopped, and he was only allowed to play in other people's plays.Xiao Yulin was a little puzzled, but Wu Lianrui bluntly said that his kung fu has not yet mastered.At first everyone watched, dazzled by his tumbles and somersaults.But after a long time, even the best work will be tiresome. At this time, people should test his other skills, such as singing skills, such as body posture.If he accidentally cast Bai Yutang as Sun Monkey, he would be booed in the future.If you fall somersault, no matter how good your reputation is in the first place, it will be in vain later.So Xiao Yulin is still learning opera and practicing kung fu every day, and is supporting others in the Hechun class.

During the time when he was on fire, he was very busy, and after the show, he was all entertaining.Occasionally, I will meet someone who is not open-eyed. Seeing that he is beautiful, I want to take advantage of it.In the end, he was always beaten to the point of crying.When the news got out, it became a lot of fun in the pear orchard.Everyone laughed, laughing at the blindness of those rascals.As the old saying goes, a good man can't beat a Lai Xizi.Although their singing is a bit showy, their skills are far more flexible than ordinary people.Xiaoyulin Kaimeng's Hechun troupe was originally a boxer training troupe, and later he went to the rivers and lakes to perform tricks and gradually became a theater troupe.He has a solid boy kung fu, and the Wu school he studied under later also followed the hard kung fu way.Although the martial arts raised in this way are not comparable to serious martial arts masters, dealing with a few rogues is just like playing.

Yu Dongrong had a headache with this matter.Most of the actors who want to socialize are wealthy people with status.Xiao Yulin punches Nanshan today and kicks Beihai tomorrow, maybe one day he accidentally offends Tai Sui, and it will be troublesome.He explained this truth to Xiao Yulin in detail.Xiao Yulin said he understood.In the future, if someone provoked him, he would run away like a jerk, and finally got the nickname Zhou Feileg.

Young Master Yu Qi thought this nickname was really ugly.But there is no way to complain anymore, Xiao Yulin is willing to be obedient, he is thankful.Although Yu Dongrong is not yet married, he always feels that raising children is nothing more than that--the daily worries are endless.

Xiao Yulin was free here for a while, so Yu Dongrong hurriedly hired a teacher for him, and wanted him to learn some culture honestly.In fact, Mr. Cao was invited to the class earlier, mainly to teach young children.Xiao Yulin was much older than others, sitting in it was out of place.He himself has a very proud temper, and he can't stand those kids sneaking glances at him every day.I have been there for less than a week, and I will never go there again.Yu Dongrong looked for him everywhere in the Cao family compound, and finally found him sitting on the beam eating beef sandwiches.Seeing Young Master Yu Qi, his eyes were bent; but when he heard that he was asked to go back to class, Jun's face suddenly collapsed.Even though Yu Dongrong broke his throat, he refused to come down.

By the time Yu Dongrong struggled to find the ladder, there was no one on the beam.After the play at night, Yu Dongrong spanked him under the covers.Before he could wait for anything, the world was spinning, and he rode on Yu Dongrong.Young Master Yu Qi was almost crushed by him, so he had no choice but to coax him off his body first.I was very depressed.

Even so, the idea of ​​letting him learn culture has not been extinguished.I hang out with celebrities and dignitaries all day long, so I don't have any ink in my stomach.These days, famous actors are not given in vain.Even Wu Lianrui, who is as stubborn as a donkey, can write a few lines of old-style poetry in plain rhyme.Not to mention the fact that He Cuixian spends all day with literati, and his poetic talent has already been praised to the heavens.Ye Xiaodie came from Qingyin Class, and she knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.As for Qin Meixiang... Yu Dongrong gave Xiao Yulin a sad look.When Xiao Yulin compared with Boss Qin, it was a big deal.

If Qin Meixiang hadn't been in poor health recently, he really wanted to send Xiao Yulin there for a few days, so that this disobedient bastard could enjoy Boss Qin's elegance.

So when the husband was sure to come down, he directly showed his cards to Xiao Yulin: "Teacher, please come over early tomorrow morning. From now on, after you finish your meal in the morning, you will have a cultural class with Master for two hours, and then you should do it again." Why are you going?"

Xiao Yulin got off to the play early today, and was lying happily beside Yu Dongrong in changed clothes, planning to talk to him about the new play.Hearing such a sad news, he suddenly sat up from the bed: "Didn't I say that I can read and write! I can read newspapers and write letters..."

"Your writing is also called calligraphy? It's almost like a dog crawling." Yu Dongrong slowly wiped his hands with balm. The weather is dry and cold in autumn and winter, and his hands tend to have small cuts, so he must apply some of this stuff.

"But how can I have time..."

Yu Dongrong put the balm aside: "Be obedient. If you want to be red for a long time, you must have some ink in your stomach. Someone will write a new play for you tomorrow, and you read the book from beginning to end, stunned." If you don’t understand, how do you proceed?”

Xiao Yulin remained silent.Yu Dongrong looked at him for a while, then sighed: "I just don't understand. There's nothing wrong with learning something. Isn't it easier to sit there and listen to Mr. talk, write and write than you practice kung fu?"

When Xiao Yulin spoke again, his face was very serious, and he no longer looked like a child: "The things Mr. said are not right." He shook his head: "The things in the books he said are all deceitful..."

Yu Dongrong seemed to understand a little bit: "Just listen to it, you don't have to take it to heart."

"Then what's the use of me listening to it?"

Yu Dongrong was at a loss for words.

"Three teachings and nine schools, our opera singers are the last of the nine schools." He said seriously: "Scholars look down on us, so what should I learn from them?"

This is a set of fallacies, but Yu Dongrong can also hear it. It seems that the class leader Cao invited a sour Confucian to teach the children.Young people can't think so deeply, but Xiao Yulin is already at this age, and he can't be fooled by treating him like a child.Young Master Yu Qi then comforted him: "This time, the gentleman is not the same as your last time..."

"Quail showman monkey. We're just playing with each other." Xiao Yulin chuckled lightly: "You don't need to waste your time."

Yu Dongrong frowned: "Who said that?"

"That's what they say."

"Whoever says that is a quail. What the hell." Yu Dongrong sat up and said, "Anyway, you will start teaching me tomorrow. If this gentleman fails, when Boss Qin is ready, you can go to his place to have a smoke smoke."

There was an odd silence between the two of them for a while.Finally, Xiao Yulin lay down reluctantly: "Anyway, you have the final say."

Yu Dongrong rarely fell asleep.After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yulin came up and put his arms around his waist.

Young Master Yu Qi sighed rather melancholy.

When winter came, Qinghan Yang finally came back.As soon as Qin Meixiang got the letter, she brought Xiao Yurong to the door.It's hard to talk about it, but Master Yang didn't agree to accept him on the spot, he just said it depends on fate.Fate is mysterious and mysterious, how do you think about it.Xiao Yurong was sad and disappointed, but Qin Meixiang smiled a little, and just said don't think too much, just sing well every time in the future, that's all.

After sending away the bewildered little Yurong, Qin Meixiang went back to the house to help Yang Qinghan peel the longan. While peeling the longan, she said gossipingly: "Rong Guaner's Youlongxifeng, you really should listen to it. When you were young the taste of."

Yang Qinghan rolled her eyes: "If it wasn't for his performance, I wouldn't even see him. Anyone can come here casually?" He said so, but his tone was very happy.

It turned out that I had heard it a long time ago.Qin Meixiang has been by Master's side for many years, how can she not know his thoughts.But I still couldn't help complaining: "Since you intend to take him in, why did you pick on him so many problems in person. He has always been a timid person."

"I just want him to know that he won't be complacent if he knows two plays. He is still far away." Yang Qinghan carefully wiped his head and face with a soft brush and fine silk: "The waist is so hard, the hands are so thick. No wait If he sings well, he will start a family first, and then drag the family and lead the mouth. If he doesn't work hard, it will be useless based on how good his voice is."

Qin Meixiang sighed.He knew that what Master Yang said was reasonable.

Yang Qinghan wiped it for a while, and slowly lost his mind: "When I look at him, I think of your senior brother. He is a very good child, but he is timid and confused, and he died a long time ago. Sometimes I also think, at that time, be more respectful." Be patient, is your senior brother still singing now? If you sing, I can still be with you..."

Yang Qinghan took in a great apprentice named Lan You in his early years.Everything is good, the kind that the ancestors enjoy the meal.He has been popular since he took the stage, but unfortunately he was led astray during the social gatherings, and he became addicted to smoking at a young age.Yang Qinghan was so anxious that she was tied up and cured, and tried all kinds of methods, but she couldn't get rid of it.However, Lan You sang really well, with him on stage for a day, everyone else's seats were gone.Maybe it's blocking other people's money, maybe I'm tired of the world, maybe it's an accident.One day after coming to power, he went to a social gathering and died in a pavilion behind the Yudai River.How he died, no one can explain clearly, only know that the death is very dishonorable.There were many people in the same place that day, old and young, wealthy businessmen, and all corners of the troupe.No one admits that this matter has something to do with themselves.

That was 20 years ago, and the old dynasty still had a titular emperor.The world is more chaotic than it is now, and the officials' judgments are all muddled.Cao's family worked up and down, but unfortunately they couldn't get justice for Lan You in the end.

Yang Qinghan was extremely sad, and since then she has hated Gao Baoying who has been bringing Lan You to social parties and instigating him to smoke opium.The case was closed in a muddle, and Yang Qinghan chased Gao's house with a sword to kill him.Gao Baoying dared to scold Yang Qinghan at first, but after seeing the truth, she lost all momentum.The one who played the role of emperor and general on stage, was hacked by Yang Qinghan all the way to the police station, crying like a clown in the audience.Yang Qinghan spent half a month in jail because of this matter, and when she came out, she was disheartened, saying that Su Pai would never be in Lan You's generation.

Until later I met Qin Meixiang.

He is a free and easy person, but he keeps secret about this matter.When Qin Meixiang first became popular, she went out with Gao Baoying one day, but Yang Qinghan saw her and dragged her back. She couldn't help but be punished to kneel in front of the patriarch's statue for a whole day.Qin Meixiang is a clever person. After receiving the punishment, she went to ask class leader Cao quietly, only then did she know that there was still such a past.

He was afraid that Yang Qinghan would be sad if he thought too much, so he pushed the bean paste balls towards him: "Master, if you don't eat any more, it will get cold."

Yang Qinghan came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "There is no one who is perfect. Either he is confused, or he is too smart." He started to scold the apprentice around him.

Qin Meixiang smiled: "Look at Xiao Yurong, from now on..."

"One puppy leg." Qinghan Yang said bluntly.

Qin Meixiang laughed.Yang Qinghan likes to give judgments to people he just met, and the people around him have more or less passed the judgments.Although it's not nice or polite, it often hits the nail on the head and hits the nail on the head, so it becomes a very interesting thing.Ye Xiaodie is a little money fan, He Cuixian is narrow-minded, Cao Xiaoxiang is an old quail, and Huixiang is a little wood.Qin Meixiang also got it, she was a little beauty - back then he was sallow and thin, like a little beggar.

Yang Qinghan ate a few mouthfuls of bean paste soup, and remembered something: "This time I went back to Shenjiang to go to the acupuncture point, but I saw the excitement of the colleagues at the other end. Nothing else, I think the setting of the mechanism is really interesting, compared to us blindly working on the stage. Sing much better."

Qin Meixiang went to Shenjiang with Yu Dongrong the year before last, and sang there for half a month, and felt that the colleagues there were much more open to new ideas than those here.It's just that firstly, the theater troupe here still adheres to the old rules, and secondly, the set-up of the organ is expensive, so after thinking about it, I let it go.Hearing Yang Qinghan mention it this time, I was a little tempted again.

Yang Qinghan just said casually, and quickly turned the topic to important matters: "How is your throat? Do you need your hands?"

Qin Meixiang showed him that she was still the same as last year, her hands were painful and frozen.Yang Qinghan squeezed his hand and sighed: "What's wrong with this? I don't think you should hold it anymore. Isn't the bungalow surnamed Xu warm? You can just live on his side."

Qin Meixiang shook her head: "It doesn't matter. The doctor prescribed a medicated bath and soaked it twice a day. It's much better now, at least not red or swollen." The root of the disease.There is no hope of going away, but after maintenance, the attack will be lighter.If it happened to someone else, it would actually be an innocuous symptom, but if it happened to Qin Meixiang, it would become a problem.

Apart from the physical troubles, there is another trouble, which is the problem of taking shifts.Huixiang couldn't hold on anymore, and leader Cao wanted to invite Qin Meixiang back.The Lianxi troupe originally picked when crossing the bridge should have disbanded by this time.This is a very common thing in the first place, even if it is a large team, sometimes it is just a matter of breaking up.Just thinking about their love for the same stage, Qin Meixiang and Wu Lianrui wanted to find a way out for everyone in the class.He discussed with the class leader Cao and asked the Wu family father and son to come to Cao's class to take part in the class, which happened to be able to play with Xiao Yulin.As for the others, Cao's class has a hole that is missing, and they can fill it if they want.Some of them can be introduced to other characters to make scenes.The rest really had nothing to do, so they each sealed a pen and money to break up, and let everyone find a way out.

It can be said that it is extremely kind to do things like this.But still some people are dissatisfied.They didn't dare to trouble Wu Lianrui, so they pestered Boss Qin everywhere.Winter is hard, and Qin Meixiang understands them, but she always feels a bit of a headache.

Yang Qinghan looked at him bitterly: "Forget it, push it to me. I'll dismiss it for you. You, when will you learn to be more cruel?"

Qin Meixiang felt a little guilty: "Master..."

Yang Qinghan waved him away: "Let's go, old Dong is coming over later."

After leaving the Yang residence, he saw Xu Pingshan's car waiting at the door.Qin Meixiang sighed: "Why did you come here?"

Xu Pingshan raised his eyebrows: "Your mother said, it's cold and the road is slippery, let me come pick you up."

This is to bribe the family members.Xu Ma didn't know about the twists and turns between Xu Pingshan and him, but she just felt that this person cared about Qin Meixiang, and he never came back empty-handed.Xu Pingshan had instigated the Qin residence from inside to outside.

Qin Meixiang got into the car, still holding the hand stove in her hand.Xu Pingshan glanced at him: "There's a new movie theater at the other end of the flower market, there's nothing to do today, let's go and see?"

Qin Meixiang nodded.

As a result, when I looked over there, people from the cinema were walking outside.After inquiring about it, they said that unfortunately, there was a power outage today.

A look of disappointment appeared on Xu Pingshan's face.He was busy outside for a long time a while ago, and he came back only two days ago.With busy military affairs, it was rare to be able to get together with Qin Meixiang.It's been half a year like this, it's a lie to say he's not in a hurry.

There was something in Qin Meixiang's heart that she didn't know.In fact, he couldn't understand what he was trying to do by being so nonchalant.He always hesitated when he said that he wanted to be together; he also hesitated when he said that he wanted to drive people away.Seeing a person who others see quite clearly, when it is his turn, he starts to get confused.Sometimes when I think about it, I keep thinking about the sad things in the past, which is a hurdle that I can't get over.But like now, I feel that the sadness seems to be too light to mention.

He looked outside: "Or, why don't you go to the Fengle tea garden in Huashikou?"

The tea garden is not like a movie theater. It is a brick building, and the wind leaks everywhere in winter.Xu Pingshan looked at his pale face: "It's so cold..."

Qin Meixiang smiled: "There is a quyi venue over there, which is very interesting. I haven't been here for a long time, so I just happened to check it out today."

He is willing to be interested, Xu Pingshan is not against it.The street is narrow, so we got out of the car and walked towards it together.When crossing the bridge, I saw many people buying snacks and gadgets.Qin Meixiang bought two freshly baked bowl cakes and handed one to Xu Pingshan.

Xu Pingshan was a little surprised: "For me?"

Qin Meixiang nodded: "The salty ones have shiitake mushrooms and minced meat in them, I don't know if you're used to them..."

Even if what was handed over was a cornbread dipped in arsenic, that wouldn't mean that he wouldn't eat it, let alone a hot piece of cake.Xu Pingshan took a bite: "Yo, it smells so delicious."

Qin Meixiang smiled: "When I first entered the Wufu class, Master Yang was free during the day and often brought me here to play." Like Tianqiao, it is also a lively place where artists gather, but the flower market is more regular than Tianqiao. The performing arts are all in the tea garden.And the tea gardens here don't collect ticket money like opera gardens.The guests who come in for entertainment pay for tea.

There are not many people in Fengle Building, and the downstairs is not even half full.Xu Pingshan asked for a private room upstairs and asked the waiter to serve the most expensive tea.Business is light in winter, and finally a big customer came. Those who sell gadgets, snacks, and hot hand towels, come to the front one after another.The guards couldn't even bombard anyone.When Xu Pingshan entered the city, he basically only watched Qin Meixiang's plays.It was performed in theaters and theaters, which was different from the boss's rules.

It's not surprising that Qin Meixiang has been in and out of such places since she was a child.He called the clerk, stuffed a few dimes, and said a few nice words to the man, and then he got clean.

Every time Xu Pingshan saw him, he could see something different from him.Seeing this scene, I thought about it: "Have you acted here before?"

Qin Meixiang shook her head: "This is not a place for opera troupes. I used to come here to learn things. Master often said that there are all kinds of things in an opera, and even if the opera singers look good, they must act like one. We sort of deal with it."

"Then what else do you do besides singing?"

Qin Meixiang thought for a while: "I don't remember, I have learned some playing and singing." He smiled: "But I am not good at it."

The man brought a pot of tea and said it was the best.Xu Pingshan took a sip, and it was much worse than Qin Meixiang's.

On the stage was a storyteller, no matter how deserted the seat was, he was still talking about a story about the Three Kingdoms.Speaking of the highlights, some people in the audience also applauded.Qin Meixiang had good ears, and felt that a certain voice sounded very familiar.He lowered his head to look downstairs, and saw Xiao Yulin in the seat with a rapt look on his face.

He just saw the playlist at Yang Qinghan's place, and he remembered that Xiao Yulin had a play today.Look at this posture, it must have been forgotten.Mistakes are a big deal.So without hesitation, she got up and went to find him.

Xiao Yulin was listening intently, when suddenly she was patted on the shoulder and saw Qin Meixiang standing behind her.

He said happily, "Why are you here!"

Qin Meixiang said softly: "Passing by. Do you have a show today?"

The expression on Xiao Yulin's face changed from bewildered to panic: "There is..."

Qin Meixiang said to Xu Pingshan, who was chasing him down: "Let me borrow your car and take this child to the theater."

When we got into the car, there were three people sitting in the back seat.Qin Meixiang had no choice but to lean against Xu Pingshan, body to body.It's rare to be so close, so Xu Pingshan didn't care about Xiao Yulin's interruption.He stretched out his long arms, and put his arms on the seat behind Qin Meixiang, which looked like he was hugging someone.

Xiao Yulin sat close to the side, watching his eyes, nose, nose, nose, nose and heart, pretending that he didn't see anything.

Qin Meixiang was a little puzzled, he knew that Xiao Yulin didn't take drama seriously: "Why are you so obsessed with listening to books?"

Xiao Yulin said honestly: "Master taught Zhao Yun opera, and he learned it over and over again. He always said that I didn't learn well, and I didn't have the demeanor of a general. I just want to hear how it is told in other stories." He thought for a while, then turned his head Looking at Xu Pingshan, thoughtful.

Xu Pingshan didn't dislike him with his ignorant and fearful appearance.He glanced at Xiao Yulin, with a half-smile: "What's the matter, do you want to act like me?"

Qin Meixiang shook her head and said, "That can't be done."

Xu Pingshan became interested: "Why not, I have tens of thousands of soldiers under my command anyway."

Qin Meixiang thought for a while: "On stage, we are acting as people, but not people. What you want to show the audience is Tao, not tools." He looked at Xiao Yulin with a puzzled expression, and pondered for a while: " For example, if you pretend to be a leopard on stage, you are not a real leopard. But Zuoer is as frightened when he sees you as if he saw a real leopard. Because you have the spirit of a leopard in you."

Xiao Yulin nodded: "I understand a little bit."

As soon as he arrived at the theater, Xiao Yulin got out of the car.Qin Meixiang told him a few words, telling him not to worry, there was still time.

Watching Xiao Yulin go in, Xu Pingshan could finally talk to him: "Why can't you act like me?"

Qin Meixiang gave him a subconscious glance and said nothing.How did he know that Xu Pingshan couldn't control himself after being looked at like this.

His bandit temper was broken again, and he stuck it to Qin Meixiang's ear, half grinding his teeth and half jokingly: "I listened to the book well, but I was disturbed. Boss Qin, how can I compensate me?"

There was heat in Qin Meixiang's ears, and her body felt a little weak for some reason.The voice also softened: "Or, go back?"

Xu Pingshan put his arms around him and said in a low voice: "Go to my place, huh? It just so happened that a few goats just came these two days..."

Qin Meixiang broke away from him lightly: "I have to go back, I still have secondary medicine waiting for me."

Xu Pingshan was quiet, and took his hand: "Come with me to lie down in Jinling in the spring of next year, there are good doctors there too."

The car drove all the way to Qin's residence, and Qin Meixiang got out of the car.Xu Pingshan looked at him for a while: "Then you should rest..."

Until the door of the Qin Residence was closed, Xu Pingshan was still sitting in the car.The driver asked: "Master, come back?"

Xu Pingshan was silent for a long time: "Go back."

Before the words fell, the door creaked open.Qin Meixiang was still wearing that cloak, and stood behind the door with a lantern: "Grandma made fried mutton with scallions and white water radish soup today...it's cold, eat before leaving."

After he said this, there was no movement in the car for a long time.Qin Meixiang thought it was a strong wind, but Xu Pingshan didn't hear clearly.Just took a few steps out the door.Suddenly the car door opened, Xu Pingshan stood in front of him, staring at him.

Before Qin Meixiang could say anything, the lamp in her hand was taken away.In the next second, the world was spinning, Xu Pingshan carried him on his shoulder, and strode into the door.
