【Sun and Moon】Playing with Dragons and Phoenixes

Chapter 6: The Fragrant Mist and the Moon

This "Peony Pavilion" was as expected by Qin Yanfang, it really made Tan Su and her two famous in four or nine cities, and became an instant hit.

When singing "Photography", Du Liniang on the stage frowned and sighed: "There are also ancient and modern beauties who married their husbands and fell in love with each other, and made pictures for him; !” The unmarried old lady who was over [-] years old in the audience was crying so hard that her heart broke, and several servant girls hurriedly patted her on the back; at the end of the song "Yuan Jia", Liu Mengmei wore a futou, a brocade robe, and a holding bag. When Yuhu came on stage, the champion of beauty saw that all the concubines and wives in the audience were full of enthusiasm. Eight-treasure hairpins, wishful pendants, beads and jades were all thrown on the stage as if free of money. At the end, everyone felt that they were stepping on gold threads Sing on the jade chips.The elder of the Chrysanthemum Altar who was present said that the two of them were not bad in hand, eye, body, step, singing, singing, dancing, and dancing. One was as handsome as the morning sun, and the other was as beautiful as the bright moon. He also gave them the nickname "Sun and Moon Talent". I hope that the two of them will shine like the sun and the moon, shining in the Liyuan.

"These two are really good. They have words in their mouths and fashion in their bodies, not to mention their looks. They look like the right couple!" Mr. Qian, who was celebrating his birthday, stared at the stage with narrowed eyes, and turned his head slightly to the housekeeper. Said: "What's the matter, Qian Zhong, bring it to the back hall to receive the reward?"

"Hey, master, it stands to reason that you shouldn't be spoiled today," the housekeeper Qian Zhong rubbed his hands and replied, "but this matter, it's really embarrassing..."

"Hey, who dare to climb onto the bed of some noble family, and let the early bird peck the tip of the bud? You really can't underestimate these little actors!"

"The opera troupe is next door to Xianggong Tangzi. The youngsters don't study the opera well. They spend all day fussing and trying to catch up with a master or young master. They all regard themselves as Yu Tangchun!" Qian Zhong nodded and bowed and said with a smile: "But this The two little boys are different, they are children of a good family." The housekeeper leaned over and whispered something in Master Qian's ear.

"What's the matter!" Master Qian's eyes widened in shock, "It turned out to be the son of the tea king! A family like them has gone crazy for letting their son sit in a science show?"

"That's right, everyone calls Su Lao a lunatic!"

"Hey, it's a pity, it's a pity, it's hard to see." Master Qian smacked his lips regretfully, and asked unwillingly: "Are these two old-fashioned?"

"The one who plays Liu Mengmei is called Su Zhenzhen, Su Lao's eldest son." Qian Zhong paused and continued: "The one who plays Du Liniang is his younger brother."

"What a lovely couple, Lao Su is very lucky." Master Qian rubbed his nose, "Come on, let's continue the reward."

Seeing Qian Zhong leave the main seat, Fourth Master Lei, the class leader who was standing on the side, rushed up to greet him, "Butler Qian, are you satisfied with the show?"

"Satisfied, satisfied." Qian Zhong smiled and cupped his hands, "I also have to congratulate Fourth Master Lei for bringing out two good characters!"

"Don't dare, dare not!" Fourth Master Lei hurriedly returned the gift, and then asked cautiously: "But, is there anything about receiving a reward in the back hall?"

"I mentioned it..."

"Hey, I can't go, I can't go!" Fourth Master Lei broke out in a cold sweat, interrupting Qian Zhong and said, "The one who plays Liu Mengmei is our young master!"

"People say that you are old and hot, and I don't think it's as easy as a young boy?" Qian Zhong glanced at Fourth Master Lei, "Before the play started, your young master came to me and prepared a generous gift. If you want me to take care of their brothers, who has a grudge against money?"

"Both brothers? What kind of brothers? Our boss is just one..."

"Hey!" Qian Zhong hastily stretched out his hand to cover Fourth Master Lei's mouth, "Old Lei, are you confused? I use money to do things, but I only know that Du Liniang is playing Du Liniang. Brother or love brother love brother?"

"Yes, yes, what the butler said is very true, when people are old, they don't have enough brains!" Fourth Master Lei bowed to Qian Zhongyi and said, "There will be a big gift to the house tomorrow, thank you for your care."

"That's right, that's sensible." Qian Zhong stretched out his finger to tap Fourth Master Lei's shoulder, turned around and left with a smile.

At this time, the music started again, and another good show was sung on the stage in the distance, "I will appear on the stage after you sing." Fourth Master Lei sighed, and said to himself: "Young master, you protect me!" If you have him for a while, can you still protect him for the rest of your life?"

Hearing that the host had rewarded it and there was nothing wrong with it, Tan Wuyu breathed a sigh of relief.He has always been very thoughtful, pondering things over and over in his mind, and he became more and more disgusted that the backstage was noisy and dirty, so he didn't take off his makeup, so he escaped by himself while everyone was going to receive the reward, and stood on the veranda to blow the air.

Just as he was thinking of going into a trance, someone suddenly hugged his waist from behind. Tan Wuyu was about to get angry, but when he turned around, he froze for a moment as if he had rubbed against something.The person hugging him said in a loud voice: "I've been looking for you in the background for a long time, why didn't you go to receive the reward?" Tan Wuyu glanced sideways at the people behind him, only to see a small painted face with Xiang Yu's face on it, Wearing Bawangbai and thick-soled boots, he hugged him tightly, the oil paint on his face rubbed onto Du Liniang's shirt, "You sing so well! Sing with me in the future, my Concubine Yu!"

Before Tan Wuyu could answer, he just felt being pulled by a strong force again, and bumped into another person's arms. "Young master, you must be a bit reckless!" Su Zhenzhen didn't take off her make-up, she was still dressed in Liu Mengmei's attire, holding Du Liniang at this moment, she felt full of confidence and spoke a little louder.

I don't know if it's because of his addiction to drama or something, Xiao Hualian shouted loudly, and shouted in a dramatic voice: "You are a young scholar, you dare to snatch an orphaned beauty!" He made a face, his eyes widened , So mighty, and sang again: "The hero is invincible, destroying Qin, abolishing Emperor Chu, and fighting for the control of Huayi." It was a few lines sung by Farewell to the overlord of Chu when he appeared on the stage.

Ren Shisu was really clever, so he couldn't help being taken aback at this moment, but Tan Wuyu burst out laughing, and said with a smile: "Young lady sings so well, she has a beautiful face with a hammer." Only then did I realize that she has a small face and thin hands, she is not a girl!

"Do you also think I sing well?" Xiaohua lost her posture and jumped up happily, "Then you don't sing with him in the future, go back to Shanghai to sing with me, there is no such good actor as you in the whole Shanghai Beach !"

"This is impossible, he sold it to our family!" Su Zhenzhen hugged Tan Wuyu and refused to let go, while constantly arguing with Xiao Hualian, "Stop hooking up with me, first tell me where you are from The reckless overlord who came out?"

"On the stage, he is such an elegant young man, but why is he so ignorant off the stage?" Xiaohua frowned, with a look of disgust, "I'm here to celebrate Uncle's birthday, so you can call me Gongsun Gongzi." Turning his face to Tan Wuyu with a smile, he said, "You call me Ah Yue."

"Ah Yue," Tan Wuyu felt that Xiao Hualian was very cute, so he patted Su Huanzhen's hand away, and saluted her, "I'm Tan Wuyu, he's Su Huanzhen."

"Wuyu is so kind of you, gentle and polite! You can learn a little bit about plain things!" Gongsunyue pulled Tan Wuyu to sit on the veranda. Just go on stage and act out. "Originally, I was going to sing a beautiful case today. My uncle, who is always old, married another concubine recently. I was afraid that my aunt would be bullied, so I planned to sing this play so that the old man would not forget the dross. Who knew that my aunt would not Let me say that it is not appropriate to sing bloody songs on the day of great joy, and I can't sing Farewell My Concubine either. If you ask me, she's too scared of things, and I'm here to give her a head start!"

Su Zhenzhen was very happy when he heard the words, and said: "It's not that she is afraid of things, it's that Gongsun Gongsun, you are too rampant, and I want to give your uncle a cut!"

"If you want me to say, all the heartless people in the world deserve to die." Gongsun Yue glanced at Su Zhenzhen, "Where is there such a sincere gentleman as Liu Mengmei now? What's more, when the "Peony Pavilion" was over, they were still young couples , after more than ten years, there is no such beautiful family as flowers, only years like water passing by, who knows if Liu Mengmei will also betray Du Liniang?"

"Liu Mengmei will never fail Du Liniang." Su Zhenzhen looked at Tan Wuyu and said word for word, Tan Wuyu also looked back at him, his eyes were full of water, but he was still speechless.

Gongsunyue's flexible eyes were turning back and forth between Tansu and Su, and suddenly smiled and said: "If you lose, what should you do?"

"If you lose, call me..."

"What are you calling? Don't talk nonsense, it's all a joke!" Tan Wuyu stood up, "Besides, what's the point of those sweet words and vows of eternal love? There is no end to this life, so you can't do anything right. It just makes people sad when they think about it later!"

"Wuyu, what's wrong with you?" Gongsunyue was startled, "The reaction is so big!"

"Ayue, I'm sorry," Tan Wuyu suddenly felt his spirits fade, and with the setting sun and the evening wind, he felt even more depressed, "I've lost my composure, I'm tired today, please show me your favor in the future Where I live, I'll make an apology to you!" After speaking, he turned and left.

"Are you still chasing?" Gongsun Yue blinked and asked Su Zhenzhen, who was still in place.

"Gongsun Gongzi, do you know a saying that when a fake is true, it is also a fake?" Su Huan looked at Tan Wuyu's back and said quietly: "It's true and false, I sing a lot of operas, and I really can't understand it." Clear. There are many truths that can only be borrowed from the mouths of the people in the play, and they are all told as lies. After stepping off the stage, there will be a lot of helplessness and worries in the world of mortals, but it is not as comfortable and happy as in the pink and ink. The more I think about it, the more I feel There are more times when you want to act, and less time when you want to be a person."

Qin Yanfang stood in the small courtyard waiting for his apprentice to come back from the play. She saw a figure approaching from a distance, and hurried to meet her, but after a closer look, it was Zhang Meiqin, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you, I can't do it today, I I have to see Feng Qing come back to feel at ease."

"How do you say that I came here to do that kind of thing?" Zhang Meiqin said with a smile, "I'll wait for the young master, can't I?"

"It's okay, anyway, you taught this play anyway, so you should ask. I'm afraid that Mr. Qian is not a good stubble, and spoiled our children!" Qin Yanfang's eyes were still fixed on the gate, "Hey , it seems to be coming!"

"Master, Fengqing is back." Tan Wuyu entered the door, saw Qin Yanfang was waiting for him, kowtowed three times without saying a word, "Thank you for the cultivation, Master, for letting Master worry."

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!" Qin Yanfang had tears in her eyes, and knelt down to examine Tan Wuyu's body, "Everything must be complete? Didn't anything bad happen?"

"No, everything is fine." Tan Wuyu also wanted to cry, but he just held back.

"What are you talking about? What a wonderful thing! Fengqing is popular, why are you crying?" Zhang Meiqin hurriedly helped Qin Yanfang up, and helped him wipe away tears, "I think the young master's family has already taken care of it, the first few days He also asked me what Chief Qianfu likes."

"Okay, okay, okay, I love him for nothing!" Qin Yanfang said to Tan Wuyu earnestly, "Fengqing, you have to miss your elder brother! I have to thank him for this matter!"

"Think of him..." Tan Wuyu lowered his head, feeling that tears were about to flow.He thought about this matter in his heart all afternoon, and always felt that He Su was really inseparable. Now that he had confirmed it, his heart was both sweet and sour.

"Master Zhang, you are here!" Su Zhenzhen walked into the small courtyard with a smile, and gave Zhang Meiqin a deep bow, "Long Zhang, thank you for your training. We sang "The Peony Pavilion" and won a lot of applause!"

Zhang Meiqin hastened to help him up, "Young Master, please be polite, this is all Meiqin's job."

"Shaodong's home just happened to come. Wu Yuzheng has something to say to you. You brothers and sisters can talk to you." Qin Yanfang always knew that his apprentice was thin-skinned, and he couldn't say his thanks to Su Zhenzhen in front of everyone, so she pulled Zhang Meiqin turned around and went back to the house.

"Wuyu, why are you still kneeling? It's cold on the ground." Su Zhenzhen squatted beside Tan Wuyu and said softly.

"Su Zhenzhen, I told you not to be so nice to me, and I also told you not to meddle in other people's business, why are you still..." Tan Wuyu still knelt down and said in a low voice, " How about now, I owe you something, but what do you want me to pay back!"

"I don't want you to pay..."

"It must be paid back!" Tan Wuyu raised his head and stared at Su Zhenzhen, his eyes were filled with tears, and he could only see the blurred outline of Su Zhenzhen, "The last thing I want to owe is your favor! You What do you want, as long as I have it, there is nothing wrong with talking about having no desires, even if I don’t have it, as long as you draw a path, I will find it for you from heaven to earth!"

Seeing Tan Wuyu's appearance of crying but insisting on being brave, Su Huanzhen felt both love and pity in his heart, and couldn't help leaning over to kiss his eyes, the thin eyelids, the trembling eyelashes, Kissing away the warm tears, "Wuyu, Wuyu, I want to carry you back to the house, and you will catch the cold if you kneel here again, okay?" Tan Wuyu closed his eyes tightly and nodded, plainly I really felt that his whole body was shaking when I hugged him horizontally.

"Su Huanzhen, as long as you want, I will give you anything today." Tan Wuyu lay on the bed and buried his face in the pillow softly like a kitten afraid of people.Su really bowed his head and kissed his hair, "Wuyu, I just want you to sleep well today. You are still young, and you will have a bright future."

Hearing the sound of closing the door, it took Tan Wuyu a while to turn over, the moonlight dragged a long shadow of a person in the small courtyard, and reflected on his door.He raised his hand and sketched in the air along the edge of the shadow, his eyes were clear and blurred, bright and dark, and he thought of a libretto in his thoughts: "Ah! It's hitting the karma of 500 years ago."

Such a star and such a night, for whom will the wind and dew stand in the middle of the night?

The lingering thought exhausts the cocoon, and the heart hurts the banana after the rain.
