【Sun and Moon】Playing with Dragons and Phoenixes

The summer when Tan Wuyu was 16 years old was surprisingly hot. In June, the sky in the capital city was as hot as a fire, unbearably hot.

This year, Su Zhenzhen's voice has been down, he is taking medicine for recuperation, and he can't go on stage for the time being. He has no desires and doesn't want to play with others. Apart from singing some Tsing Yi dramas occasionally, he stays indoors to read, write, and think about singing. .Ordinarily, Tan Wuyu and Keban signed a contract of selling their lives, and it doesn't count whether he sings or not. Everyone in the class didn't dare to force him, not to mention that even if he only sang Tsing Yi's leading roles, it was enough for the class to earn a lot of money.The apprentices in the class jokingly called him "Tan Erdong's family" in private, Xiao Lanxiang sneered and said, where is the second master's family, they are all ignorant bastards, but he is the young mistress!Xiao Xifu at the side scolded him with a hippie smile for selling Shanxi mature vinegar.

On this day, Su Zhenzhen paid out of his own pocket to buy ice lumps for the troupe to cool off the heat, and then personally delivered them to everyone's room, slipped around, and finally came to Tan Wuyu's room, it was already afternoon.He opened the door curtain and entered the room, and saw Tan Wuyu wearing snow-white underwear and Mei Ziqing's nightgown, lying on the bed and taking a nap, still holding a book in his hand.Su Zhenzhen walked over lightly, took the book from his younger brother, and looked down, it was the "Zhuangzi" Qiushui.At that time, the sun was hanging high outside the house and the heat was steaming, but in this room facing such a person and reading such a book, Su Zhenzhen felt as if he was in the cold, and all the anxiety disappeared.He was so in love that he couldn't help but took off his shoes and went to bed.

"Su Huanzhen... In this hot day, you don't feel tired and panic..." Tan Wuyu didn't even bother to open his eyes, complaining in a daze while moving into the bed.

Su Zhenzhen stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his junior brother's waist very naturally, the silk nightgown under his hand was chilly, which made people feel very comfortable, he couldn't help sighing: "It's like a snow cave here, how can it be so hot?" Woolen cloth?"

"Hmph..." Tan Wuyu took advantage of the situation to rest his head on Su Zhenzhen's shoulder, put his hands on his chest, and murmured dimly: "Give me some ice, the clothes are all scalded in the sun, who wouldn't know how to buy them yourself? You go to be a good person..."

"Wuyu feels distressed, huh?" Su Zhenzhen asked with a wicked smile.

"Fuck you!" Tan Wuyu pushed his chest and wanted to turn over to ignore him, but Su Huanzhen hugged him tightly and couldn't move, so he could only give up.After squinting for a while, he asked again: "By the way, how is your throat?"

"All right."

"Okay?" Tan Wuyu was startled when he heard the words, quickly propped himself up, and stared at him with wide eyes.

"Don't believe me? If you don't believe me, I'll sing a few words for you!" Su Zhenzhen cleared her throat and sang in a serious manner: "Tell Zhang Sheng to hide under the chessboard. I'll come step by step and you'll crawl step by step. Be bold and swallow your breath. Don't be afraid. Follow the little matchmaker and you will see her." Xiaohuadan's small voice made him sing in pieces, it was really a barbaric accent, his voice was hoarse like a saw blade, it was unbearable to listen to.

After Tan Wuyu heard the first three words, he frowned and stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, but made Su Zhenzhen dodge left and right to sing half of the song, and continued to sing: "It can be regarded as a romantic song." ..." Finally, Tan Wuyu couldn't bear to move his head, and kissed him hard, which made the little matchmaker with a male duck voice shut up.

"Why don't you know how to take care of your own voice?" Before Su really enjoyed it carefully, Tan Wuyu raised his head and scolded, "It's a hell for a singer, how many people are ruined by it?" Here it is! How many people have finally become a role, but they have lost their voices and can only play tricks?"

Su Zhenzhen had a good time, and felt that the junior brother was as cute as a cat with prickly claws, so he stretched out his hand to purr Hulu's hair and said, "You still say you don't feel bad? See you are so anxious."

"I feel sorry for you? You are very attractive, aren't you?" Tan Wuyu pushed aside the claws that were making trouble on the top of his head, and said with a sneer, "That's right, Mr. Su doesn't point to this bowl of rice to eat, and he can't sing anymore." Don't care! If Mr. Su is willing to eat this bowl of opera, please tell me as soon as possible, so that I can find someone else to join me, don't delay for nothing. You are right, I sold it to your family, and I have to sing, Still have to make a living!"

Seeing that Tan Wuyu was really in a hurry, Su Zhenzhen apologized again and again: "Junior brother, it's all my fault, I'm messing around! Hey, I wanted to make you laugh, but I didn't flatter you well, so I slapped the horse's hoof. It's gone!" He rubbed his hands up and down on Tan Wuyu's back as if comforting, and stroked his waist back and forth, "Let's go and tear up the deed of prostitution now, and we'll pick a class by ourselves when we catch up tomorrow. Hang the top card, I will sing for you the second-way old student, the cross-sword old student, and the tricks, but you must not want the senior brother!"

Tan Wuyu was originally worried about him, but now seeing his soft and gentle confession, he felt relieved, and felt that he had spoken too much, but he couldn't open his mouth to apologize, so he reached out and hugged Su Zhenzhen Leaning his head on his chest, he said softly, "Who dares not want you...Let's leave the deed of prostitution with the troupe master. Anyway, it will expire in a year or two. I don't have any expenses. The singer Bao Yin Just think of it as filial piety to the masters."

"No desires, no desires, you really live up to your name." Seeing him leaning on her chest, Su Zhenzhen's body was about to crumble, "I have the same amount of silver as you, and now I can buy a small courtyard in Xizhimen My son, with so much money, you just say a word of filial piety to the master, it's so heroic and chic!"

"Things outside of the body..." Tan Wuyu felt drowsy again, he rubbed his chest and whispered, "Go to sleep for a while..."

"Well, go to sleep." In the afternoon of Kuxia, he hugged his younger brother and fell asleep in the ice pile. Su Zhenzhen felt that he would not change even if he became the emperor, and fell asleep after closing his eyes.

I fell asleep until supper time, half dreaming and half awake when I talked about Wuyu, I felt a hand reaching into his obscene clothes from behind to touch him, the warm palm first lingered on the smooth back, and then slowly pressed down on his back. The sensitive waist was kneaded, and he stroked it back and forth until his whole body was soft and numb, as if it was about to turn into a puddle of water. He couldn't help but open his eyes and complained: "Well... Su Zhenzhen, you woke up Come and hurt me..."

Seeing that he was awake, Suzhen smiled and leaned into his ear and said, "Wuyu, I was dreaming just now, and I dreamed of a poem, and you commented on it: Everyone walks like a madman to avoid the summer heat, only the younger brother doesn't stay out of the room. It’s not because there is no heat in the room, the jade bones and ice muscles are naturally cool.”

"You... um... don't mess with Bai Juyi." Tan Wuyu blushed with shame, buried his face on Su Zhenzhen's shoulder, and said in a trembling voice: "The sky is bright and white, don't... "

"Don't what?" Su Zhenzhen drew a circle on his back with his index finger, and drew it up and down along the provocative curve of his back, "The sky is not good, so let's wait a little longer, the sun will go down... ..."

"Hey, what a coincidence that I came?" Gongsunyue covered her lips with a fan, her beautiful eyes rolled around on Tan Wuyu's bed, and then she turned around pretending to be surprised.

"It's Ah Yue!" Tan Wuyu was taken aback, struggling to sit up, but Su Huanzhen hugged his waist tightly, so he could only say apologetically in this position: "Please, Ah Yue, wait for me in the veranda." , I’ll go find you after I pack up.”

"Okay, okay, Boss Su doesn't want to come together, I'm afraid he will swallow me alive!" Gongsun Yueji laughed heartily a few times, and walked away slowly.

"Come on, I want to change clothes." Tan Wuyu patted his brother's depressed face with his hand, Su Zhenzhen reluctantly let go, staring straight at Tan Wuyu's dressed The back figure didn't speak or move.Tan Wuyu saw his expression from the reflection in the full-length mirror, and couldn't help laughing to himself. After changing into the dark blue gown, he went to the bed and sat down, and asked him cheek to cheek: "Unhappy?" Being so close, smelling each other's breaths, lips and teeth eager to meet, the sweet scent of incense on Tan Wuyu's clothes is intoxicating, and the sensuality in the eyes is more clearly coaxing Su Zhenzhen to kiss him, but Su Zhenzhen just moved , but he turned around and avoided it. "Su Zhenzhen, the future will be long." Tan Wuyu stood by the door with a particularly bright smile, "I'm still young!"

"I've failed my studies, I've failed my studies!" Su Zhenzhen gritted his teeth and stared at the fluttering door curtain and muttered to himself, then turned his face and kissed Tan Wuyu's pillow ferociously.

"Ah Yue, I made you laugh." Tan Wuyu came to the veranda and bowed his hands to Gongsunyue.

"You still want to say these things to me, Wuyu, you're too out of touch!" Gongsunyue was still dressed in men's clothing, wearing a maple red gown, with a delicate cap on her head, sassy and beautiful, " It’s really evil this year, the capital is hotter than Shanghai! I said I can’t avoid the heat, so I can listen to your plays anyway, what’s the matter, that one’s voice is down?”

"That's right, it's been several months, and it hasn't recovered." Tan Wuyu frowned and said, "Why don't you go back and ask in Shanghai to see if Western medicine can help?"

"Hey, you really don't care about him! I've never seen you entrust me with your own affairs, it's all for him!"

"Who is for him? I think it's too late for him, and it drags me down so much that I can't sing."

The two of them were talking, when they suddenly saw a ball of red fire crashing in from the gate of the small courtyard, "Hey, he really found it!" Gongsunyue closed the fan and slapped the palm of her hand.

"Ayuezi, how can Nong be here? It's been a long time for Alasin Nong! Who is he?" Although the person had not arrived, he had heard the voice first, and Tan Wuyu saw the person wearing a fiery red gown from a distance. Peonies and butterflies are embroidered all over with gold thread. What's even more surprising is that his long hair tied up high is the same color as the gold thread on his clothes. The whole person seemed to be on fire, waited for someone to run closer, and looked at his face again, a pair of blue eyes were shining like cold stars, and the long and curly eyelashes were also golden, fluttering like butterflies.The person who came spoke Wu Nong's soft language, but he was a very handsome foreigner.

"He is my good friend Tan Wuyu, Wuyu, this is stupid... Mister Butterfly." Gongsunyue introduced with a smile.

Mr. Butterfly looked Tan Wuyu up and down with his sharp eyes, as if he was going to tear him apart with his eyes, "Tan Wuyu, it's a great name, you have to think about Ah Yuefa, and you have to think about it."

"It's ridiculous." Tan Wuyu was not annoyed, and said calmly, "In my opinion, Mr. Butterfly is a good name. It attracts bees and butterflies, and you will be romantic when you hear it."

"Don't talk nonsense! There are quite a lot of people who like me, but I don't want any of them except Ah Yue!"

"Hey, I said why are the magpies chirping today, I think some distinguished guests have come?" Just as they were arguing, Su Zhenzhen walked over Shiran, and saluted Gongsunyue and Mister Butterfly with a smile.

"Ah Yuezai, how can there be another man!" Mr. Butterfly saw that the man beside Gongsunyue was so handsome, he was so anxious, "Are there still four or five in this room?"

"Don't embarrass me, this is Su Huanzhen, brother Wuyu." Gongsunyue spread out her fan again, covering half of her face helplessly.

"Hello," Mr. Butterfly greeted angrily, thinking about giving his "rival" a blow: "I'm Bart Flay!"

Su really laughed, "Butterfly? When a man doesn't understand foreign language, isn't he just a moth flying in the garden!"

"The hearts of the people in the capital are broken. Ayue is back to Shanghai. When I go back to Shanghai, I will cook some side dishes for you!" Mr. Butterfly saw that he couldn't win the good and the bad. He was anxious and angry, and pulled Gongsun Yue's hand The sleeves swayed left and right.

"Nong shows Ning the face of this daughter-in-law," Gongsunyue knocked off Mr. Butterfly's hand with a fan, "I want to return it to Nong myself."

"Yes, I would like to ask Mr. Butterfly to go back to Shanghai by himself." Seeing that Mr. Butterfly is so funny, Suzhen even thought of playing tricks, "Mr. Xu Yanzhao, who entered the palace for the second time, is a family member with a painted face."

"Hey! That's a good show!" Gongsunyue immediately got excited when she heard the opera, and asked carefully without Mr. Butterfly: "Whose Concubine Li Yan, whose Yang Bo? I don't want to sing if I'm not a good actor, this drama is very particular."

"I know you're picking someone, so it's naturally Li Yanfei, my younger brother, and Yang Bo." Su Zhenzhen raised an eyebrow and said with a smile: "I still have to ask you to help us both."

"It's really good, Boss Su, you have been hiding with your family for so many days as co-author, why don't you hide your strength and bide your time?"

"Haha, as the saying goes: Steal half a day's leisure in a floating life, and sleep in the small window with a jade man in your arms. A pillow with a deep sleep and a mandarin quilt soft. I don't envy Lingshan for flying immortals."

"Whatever you say, it's all your own nonsense. It's just a fabrication like "Tong Kao of Ancient and Modern Characters." Tan Wuyu's face was hot, and seeing Gongsunyue's smile was very clear, he was even more embarrassed, so he quickly changed the topic: "Boss Su will play the golden voice again, and the class will have to hold a grand occasion. Let's first sum up how many songs we will sing."

"I think the finale is "Second Entry" by the three of us. The main axis, of course, is "Wujiapo" by you and me. Before that, there are "Autumn Hu Xie Wife", "You Long Xi Feng", "Fen The Bend of the River?"

Tan Wuyu kept a blank face and said nothing, but Gongsunyue laughed so hard that she laughed and said, "What is this for? I think it's because I've been bored enough for the past few months, and I need to come back from a molestation that is worth it? Qiuhu molested me." Luo Funv, Zhengde molested Li Fengjie, Xue Rengui molested Liu Yingchun, Xue Pinggui molested Wang Baochuan, it’s hard for you to think of so many at once! Only Yang Bo and Li Yanfei are not husband and wife, but they are bothering you because of me.”

"Why don't Yang Bo find someone else to sing and let him pretend to be Yan Jia's old emperor, and make it all together! What kind of addiction is it like on stage!" Tan Wuyu's angry Su Su took a good look, "To be honest, singing so many lives If it’s a joke, it’s better to sing the whole "Si Lang Visits His Mother" earlier, and you are still the main one, and I will sing Princess Iron Mirror to support you."

"It's not good, I haven't sung for a few months. If I don't see my junior on stage, I feel panicked."

"Or just sing the whole "Melontown", "You Long Xi Feng" also has your two characters embedded in it, and Hua Dan who has no desire will not steal your play."

"How can we talk about it?" Mr. Butterfly saw that the discussion between the three of them was in full swing, so he quickly interjected, "Allah can sing too. Is there a lady with a pretty face in "Second Entry to the Palace"?"

"Ha, there is Xu Yanzhao's daughter in this play, what's the matter, you come here?" Su Zhenzhen said with a smile.

"Ni'er..." Mr. Butterfly didn't realize that Su was really teasing him, and really moved his mind.

"Hey, it's just his alley style, don't give me gossip!" Gongsunyue tapped Mr. Butterfly's head with the handle of her fan, "When the time comes, Ms. Xu will show up with a sword, and she will say: Lennon What Ning? The audience must not laugh out loud!"

The four of them laughed and chatted, until the sun and the moon rose, they didn't feel hungry, and they went to Fengze Garden for dinner together, and they left very late.

"There's nothing to say about today's play, this one in the capital is the first one!" An old theater fan raised his thumb and said excitedly to the people next to him.

"That's not true! The best actors, the best cultural and military venues, and the best outfits. I heard that the backstage is full of gifts and flowers from fans!" , I just hope that the war will not come to Beijing, and I can still listen to the two actors singing!"

"Hey, life is like a dream, let's enjoy it!" The old theater fan shook his head, and slowly dispersed on crutches.

"Young Master, He Yi has already taken stock, and you have to see some of the gifts from the nobles yourself." Lao Li, who is in charge of the account, sent the gift list to the dressing room in the backstage. Tan Su and Su have just taken off their makeup and are having tea Rest, "There are still a few gifts, written for you two, I asked the guy to carry them, please talk about the boss."

"What are you talking about, someone gave me a gift at your venue." Tan Wuyu stood up in surprise, took the gift list and looked at the gift.

"You're not me, I'm not you, what are you doing so clearly." He waved his hand to get Lao Li to step back, Su Zhenzhen leaned behind Tan Wuyu, put his head on his shoulder and looked at the gift list together, "Hey, These are die-hard movie fans who talk about the boss."

"I don't see any foreign guests, and I don't socialize with the nobles in Beijing, so tell me who are these?" Tan Wuyu stuffed the gift list into Su Zhenzhen's hand.

"Zunzhi!" Su Zhenzhen began to read from the first article, "The world of Confucianism presented a box of Diancui head noodles to the talented Sun and Moon, two folding fans with jade handles from Tang Yin, a pair of ancient swords, and four pairs of 64 flower pheasant feathers. Dragon Su is really generous, all the gifts are good things that money can’t buy, and this head, ancient sword, and plume are clearly for you, it’s nice to say that it’s a gift for the sun and the moon, and I’ll just use a folding fan at most!”

"Think this Long Su is a rich man?"

"No, the world of Confucianism looks like Xiling Yinshe is an elegant gathering of literati, but it is actually a powerful organization. It does all kinds of business and makes a lot of money. Shulou Longsu is the leader of Confucianism. , there are other buildings all over the place, which are built like the emperor's palace! Fortunately, he has recently become obsessed with an old man who sells the power of Tianqiao, otherwise I really don't trust you." Su Zhenzhen turned his head and talked about nothing Yu kissed his face, and then read: "Master Cang of the Beijing-Tianjin Garrison, a pair of dragon and phoenix and Ming Guqin, two volumes of piano music, are presented to Sun and Moon talent."

"Hey, it's so elegant!" Tan Wuyu was overjoyed, and hurried to look through the piano score, "It's exactly the one I wanted, but I couldn't find it in many places, and I don't know where he found it. of!"

"Huh, this is a lot of thought, and the gift will naturally be delivered to your heart." Su Zhenzhen turned around and took a sip of tea, and then continued: "Liu Piaoxu and Yin Qiujun gave Tan Fengqing Tan Boss an enamel pinch. A pair of silk beauty bottles, hey, I didn’t mention my matter directly! Junior brother, it’s amazing, this person has made you surrender.”

"Liu Piaoxu sounds familiar, is she writing drama reviews?"

"Liu Piaoxu is his pen name. This person is a big reporter who is in the limelight at the moment. He writes sharply and speaks unforgivingly. He occasionally writes drama reviews and scolds everyone in Liyuan. Few can join him. In my eyes, I guess the only one who hasn't scolded you is you."

"Oh? I scolded you too? How did you say it?"

"Under the stage is like a crown of jade, but on the stage is old-fashioned."

"That's a good word! Say you're good at singing." Tan Wuyu put down the score and turned to look at Xiang Su.

"There's more to come," Su Zhenzhen continued, "The offstage is virtuous, while the stage is cunning and cunning. We only cooperate with Boss Tan, and we will make a perfect match and do our best."

"Miao ah, he seems to know you!" Tan Wuyu clapped his hands and smiled, "Is there anything else, read on."

"There is one more, don't worry about reading it." Su Zhenzhen closed the gift list and threw it on the table.

"What kind of young master's temper is playing, read it quickly! If you don't read it, don't I know how to read it myself?"

Su Zhenzhen was reluctant, and moaned and said: "The hundred-herb medicine Lumu Shaoai gave Fengqing ten hundred-year-old mountain ginseng and two pairs of ganoderma lucidum. This romantic young man's mind is really vivid."

"Why, don't you have kidney deficiency and mental fatigue, and you need to take ginseng and ganoderma tonic, but they didn't give you a gift?" Tan Wuyu walked up to him and asked, "Where did this evil fire come from?"

"I feel evil when I see you," Su Huanzhen pushed him against the wall with all his strength and gnawed, kissing and muttering: "Sooner or later, I will let you know who has kidney deficiency..." Tan Wuyu was caught by him The dear one was in a daze, his muscles and bones were numb, and he barely supported himself by resting his hands on Su Huanzhen's shoulders.

"Wuyu, I'll help you prepare a return gift for them, we don't owe them any favors..."

"Hmm... OK..." Tan Wuyu panted and nodded, and then was kissed hard again.

"Wuyu, if someone posts a message asking you, don't go, I'll just go to socialize."

"Okay... I'm not going... I'm not going anywhere..." The two kissed inseparably, like two strands of candy trying to get together, with an indescribable charm.

Burning fire cooks oil, flowers bloom brocade, don't forget that the feast must come to an end;

Tenderness and sweet love, you and me, it will be a long day of greed and joy.

Fang Xi Ronghua is just right, but hates impermanence again.
