Chapter 123: Jade in the rough

Although Xibao feels that if he wants to compete with the best martial arts student in Jiangnan, a drama like Daomadan that combines singing and fighting skills will be more interesting, but tomorrow's visit to Boss Meng is just a trial performance, and the final drama that will be performed on the stage is still

You have to discuss it with Boss Meng to decide.

"Stealing Silver" is a play from "The Legend of White Snake". It is short and exquisite, and there are wonderful fighting scenes in it. I auditioned it in front of Boss Meng. If the performance is good, Boss Meng's eyes will really shine.

"Okay, the arrangement must be arranged. But I have something important to do today and I really can't spare the time. I'll go see you tomorrow morning. How about we all join in the fun together?"

Xibao had dealt with the people in Shangya class last night and knew their skills. They were very professional in fighting. This play was a play they were familiar with. It shouldn't be a problem to try out the play by simply joining the cast.

Su Yawang didn't say anything, turned around and left.

She envied the kind of self-confidence that Xibao exuded from her bones. She was born in poverty, and the girls around her all had low eyebrows and a bitter look.

She had only seen such a confident and calm expression on the face of a rich peasant girl at the entrance of the village. She couldn't understand why the same expression could be seen on the face of a female actress in Xibao.

So she turned around and looked at Xibao again within two steps. It wasn't until Xibao stopped looking at her and went back to the courtyard to practice his exercises that she suddenly stopped and froze where she was for a long time, her heart feeling empty.

It was as if all his previous years had been in vain.

It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She couldn't figure out what she was doing. She laughed to herself silently and finally went home.

Xibao really has something to do today. Tan Xiaofu and the others are going to help sing at the matinee. The old man in the theater industry is really famous. She only heard of his name in Tianjin Wei before but never met him. She has always been very regretful.

, now that she had this opportunity, she naturally wanted to take a look.

At this moment, Mei Zilan was holding the small green bat sent by Xibao and inserting it into her head. Wu Yuexian saw it at a glance and subconsciously snatched it away.

"Why are you here?"

This person is Shuang Yunting Shuang Chu. He is the "blind" among the three monsters of the Liyuan. Because he served as the master of ceremony in the palace and was responsible for loudly praising during the sacrificial ceremony, he has developed a good posture.

His voice became famous in the capital for a while after he went to sea.

"ah."

"Brother Xijun, it's time to wait."

He smiled while putting it on Mei Zilan, thinking that he had really found a treasure. He didn't think he was good at first, but he has become better and better in the past two years. It is like a piece of jade, the more it is polished, the brighter it becomes, and the more it is polished, the more valuable it becomes.

.

Song Youzhen looked at his master and apprentice from afar, then went up and said sourly: "I said you should take it easy on Yuexian, but those who don't know think that you are not looking at your apprentice, but your little lover."

Wu Yuexian said, looking at the pair of little bats again, thinking for a long time, and finally put them on Mei Zilan.

This person is Jin Dachuan.

As the name suggests, he has an eye disease, which was caused by an illness in his childhood. He could still see some things clearly when he first appeared on the stage, but later it became increasingly difficult to see clearly.

Mei Zilan was silent, lowered her head and smiled, but she looked even more charming, charming and charming.

"I know."

She herself disguised herself as Jiao Zan and went on stage to sing.

So she went to see Shuang Yunting's play with Song Youzhen during the day, and in the evening she hurried to the Oriental Theater to find Mei Zilan backstage.

Mei Zilan hurriedly explained to her: "Don't get me wrong, my master is very caring. If I just said it was you who gave it to me, he would think twice. Besides, there are so many brothers in the troupe. If you don't give it to others, give it to me."

, it won’t be good for you if you tell me.”

But the amazing thing is that when viewers who are not familiar with him watch his plays, they can hardly tell that he has eye problems, which is amazing.

Secondly, the most important thing for Xibao is that she must apologize to someone and express her gratitude.

Mei Zilan's face froze, and the disappointment in her eyes was visible to the naked eye.

Xibao said, leaning against the table, pouting, pretending to be angry.

As a fan of Tianjin Wei's Xiahai, Boss Jin has a close friendship with Jiang Yifu, a well-known fan of Tianjin Wei.

Now that Song Youzhen came with Xibao, he could support him even if he didn't help. Of course Wu Yuexian was happy, and immediately took Song Youzhen aside to talk and introduce him to someone.

But Xibao was already laughing so hard.

He was afraid that Mei Zilan would associate with some unscrupulous people outside. How can there be free pie in the world? If someone gives you such a precious thing without any other requirements, who will believe it?

When Xibao was young and naughty, she always wanted to go on stage to sing but was thwarted in every possible way. When she accidentally learned that Jin Dachuan was going to sing "Yang Pai Feng Beats the Jiao Pian" at a theater near her home, she took a wrong idea and sent her to the theater the first day mixed with croton.

I gave Boss Jin some snacks, which caused him to have vomiting and diarrhea, and he couldn't get off the ground for a whole day.

Xibao finally noticed the little bat and said with a smile: "Put it on? No wonder it's so beautiful. It turns out the person who gave it to me is discerning. I wonder when I became a tube box?"

It's not that Wu Yuexian is not willing to give Mei Zilan a new haircut, but it's not cheap. Mei Zilan has not yet graduated from the hospital, and all the money he earns has to be given to the troupe. With his own dim sum money, he can't buy it for a while.

How come you have such a valuable mane bat?

"No matter what, it is a good thing after all. If they pay us compensation, we can just keep it."

"Hmph, what kind of connections does a box manager have at home? He may have gotten it somewhere."

She didn't dare to tell others her identity, but it was okay to meet her old friend Jin Dachuan.

But she soon stopped laughing because a familiar voice came over.

Xibao came to Mei Zilan's side, looked at the showman in the mirror, grinned and said: "The reason why the Overlord loves Yu Ji so much is finally found. It's so beautiful."

Later, when he went to Songjiang Prefecture for various reasons, Xibao was not yet born. She had always heard people say that there was a blind famous actor in the opera world, but she never had the chance to see it. She, a big drama fanatic, felt a knot in her heart.

Today I finally got over this knot.

Xibao turned around and saw the anxiety on Mei Zilan's face, so she wanted to tease him again, "But how do you know that I didn't give it to anyone else, but just you?"

Mei Zilan knew what his master was like, so he didn't want to worry him. He casually made up a reason: "The one used by Qian'er was lost in the theater. The box manager was afraid of losing his job, so he said a lot of good things to me and asked me to help him."

In order to hide it, he gave me a new pair as compensation within a few days, saying that he got it with the help of a relative who had connections."

Mei Zilan scolded, holding the little bat on her forehead and said, "Stop making fun of me."

Now that the ancestors and the emperor are gone, no one has mentioned anything about her family back then.

Xibao was horrified and hurriedly covered his face and said, "Don't smile at me like that, or even my soul will be taken away."

Xiao Yonghua was taking care of many children today, and their performance was ahead of them. All the class leaders ran over there to help. He was the only one who followed Mei Zilan to the Oriental Theater to wait, and he looked very miserable.

"When did you change it? Why hasn't Master seen it?"

After that, her family was ruined and she was homeless. She never had a chance to apologize to anyone.

Let's talk about "The Legend of White Snake". This script is a traditional drama. It was first seen in the volume "The White Snake Forever Guards the Leifeng Pagoda" in Feng Menglong's "Warning Words". It has since been handed down and has been adapted by almost all operas including shadow puppetry.

Pass.

In the earliest Peking Opera, the plot of the first chapter "Two Snakes Fighting" tells the story of the green snake who was originally a male. Because he lost the fight with the white snake, he was willing to turn into a female snake and work as a maid for the white snake. In order to show the difference between the two, in the singing

The singing style of Feng Ruixue was also specially designed, which is a mixture of Kunqu opera calligraphy and Pihuang calligraphy.

However, due to some historical reasons, this version of "The Legend of White Snake" has been lost today.

Most of the scripts circulating today are the versions finalized in 1953 after being adapted by Mr. Tian Han in 1950, after deleting "The Robbery of Silver".

Let’s talk about Shuang Yunting mentioned in the article. His deeds are based on Mr. Shuang Kuoting, one of the Three Monsters of Liyuan. This person’s deeds are also quite legendary. If you are interested, you can search for them. I won’t go into details here.
