Change your past and make a comeback

"Then did you see-?"

Song Qiwen immediately came over to ask, but Su Yunqing looked at him and held him down.

"What did you see?"

Xibao pretended not to know and continued to ask: "Did the two squad leaders see anything in front of Master's grave?"

"It's that paper money——"

Song Qiwen still wanted to ask, but Su Yunqing didn't ask him.

Xibao still pretended not to know.

"Paper money, what happened to paper money?"

This should be no longer the case.

Su Yunqing and Song Qiwen looked at each other, stopped talking to Xibao, and walked away shoulder to shoulder.

After walking out of the second door, Song Qiwen whispered to Su Yunqing: "They are fine, which means the master is looking for us."

Su Yunqing thought the same way, and his legs were weak now.

"Don't talk nonsense. Master is the most fair person. Why do you favor us over Song Youzhen?"

Song Qiwen thought for a moment and finally expressed his thoughts yesterday.

"Perhaps we made a mistake back then and should have sold our clothes to save Master's life."

Su Yunqing was stunned and looked at Song Qiwen, speechless for a long time.

After so many years, he has always insisted that his original decision was not wrong. On the one hand, he did not want anyone to poke his spine and scold him for being ungrateful and willing to die.

On the other hand, he wanted to feel at ease. God knows, every time it is the anniversary of his master's death, a death, or many days that can arouse memories of the past, he will repeatedly ask himself whether he did something wrong back then, and whether he should not be reluctant to let go of that. Just a little bit of travel money, after all, one has to survive before there is hope.

But the done deal is useless and regretting is useless. He can only keep telling himself that he is right, so that he can continue to live with peace of mind.

But is he really right now?

If even Master says he is at fault, then he is really at fault.

"Yun Qing, Yun Qing, what's wrong with you? Don't cry. Of the three brothers, you always have the most ideas. What should I do if you cry too?"

"Brothers - three?" Su Yunqing was in a daze.

Song Qiwen didn't expect him to say this, and suddenly he realized that subconsciously, he still missed his childhood and regarded Song Youzhen as a brother.

But he thought Su Yunqing didn't like what he said, so he immediately changed his mind and said, "No, there are two of us. Now it's just you and me."

"No!"

Su Yunqing held Song Qiwen's arm and said with red eyes: "There are three of us. Master told us to change our ways and be brothers. That's what it means. If the old man is still alive, he definitely doesn't want the three of us to become like this. son."

He said and pulled Song Qiwen away.

"Let's go find Youzhen. Let's talk about what happened back then and admit our mistakes to him."

Song Qiwen nodded, but quickly hesitated: "But what if he doesn't forgive us?"

"That's his business. If he wants to be a disciple who doesn't agree with the master, let him go. At least we have to listen to the master and we don't want to be disobedient disciples."

"Um."

Xibao had been standing behind the second door listening to the two men talking. She didn't know why, but seeing the two brothers walking side by side, she felt a little moved.

In fact, she has vaguely felt over the years that if one person in the lives of three people never has a name, does that mean that this person himself is somewhat unsociable?

At least he didn't take the initiative to fight for this friendship.

But no matter what, Xibao will stand by his master no matter what.

When Song Youzhen came back, Xibao immediately went to greet him.

"How did Xijun and Xiaofu perform at the nightclub for the first time? Isn't it embarrassing?"

"It's not my first time on stage, how can I be embarrassed? It's all good."

Song Youzhen was a bit shy. When talking to Xibao, she always turned her back to her and her voice was deep, not as clear as usual.

Xibao sensed that something was wrong. She thought that Song Youzhen would be happy after teaching Su Yunqing and Song Qiwen such a lesson, but she didn't expect him to be in such a low mood.

This was not Xibao's original intention, but she didn't want to admit that Song Youzhen's bad mood was due to this, so she wanted to confirm it.

"By the way, Master, Squad Leader Su and Squad Leader Da Song came to see you earlier. They seemed quite anxious. They asked them what was going on but didn't tell them. They said they wanted to go directly to you. You two can't find them.

You?"

Song Youzhen was hanging up her hat. When she heard her asking this question, she suddenly stopped again. After a while, she raised her head and said: "Seeing that I was seeing him, he was like having a convulsion. He actually said something that was not true, and he knelt down for me in front of so many people."

I admit my mistake, I have never been so embarrassed in my entire life."

Song Youzhen's voice became more and more dull, even with a hint of crying.

"Forgive them? They haven't admitted that they were wrong for so many years, and this suddenly happens, who knows what they are worried about?"

Xibao was completely shocked. She had followed Song Youzhen for more than four years. He was always there to protect her in any difficulty she encountered. Although it was not as high as a mountain, it was still like a city wall.

When had she ever seen him cry?

At this moment, he was crying. On this joyful day when Mei Zilan and Tan Xiaofu made their debut at the nightclub, he cried sadly.

This is all because of her.

"Master!"

Almost instantly, Xibao knelt down involuntarily.

"The disciple knows that the master is wrong."

Song Youzhen turned around and looked at Xibao, her eyes filled with astonishment.

"What does it have to do with you? Get up quickly and don't break your knees."

Song Youzhen couldn't take care of the tears still on her cheeks, and hurriedly tried to pull Xibao up, but Xibao couldn't get up.

"It is indeed my disciple's fault. The things that happened to Team Leader Su and Team Da Song were actually caused by my disciple."

Xibao then confessed to Song Youzhen exactly how she set up a trap to trick Su Yunqing and Song Qiwen into burning paper, and how she made red letters appear out of thin air on the paper money.

"What? You actually used green onions to write on the paper money burned for the master to scare them both?"

Song Youzhen was so angry that she paced back and forth in the room, and then asked curiously: "Can you really make the scarlet letter appear out of thin air?"

Xibao felt that Song Youzhen's point was a bit sudden, but he still patiently explained to him: "Well, after the green-white juice is applied to the paper, it will form a transparent film. Compared with paper money, this film is easier to burn, so

After being roasted, it will turn dark red first. Use green onion to write on the paper money, and then use the paper money to bake it. The writing will appear before the paper money burns."

As Xibao spoke, he looked into Song Youzhen's eyes. Seeing that his gaze was not good, he spoke softer and quieter, and finally he simply shrank his neck and did not dare to raise his head.

"I see, how did you come up with it? Oh no! You are so disrespectful! This is the first time you have gone back to meet your master, and you are doing this kind of trick in front of him. How can you call me a master?

?You go out and kneel down!"

Xibao was startled and raised his head and looked at Song Youzhen with aggrieved eyes.

After so many years, Song Youzhen still made her kneel down for the first time. It was clear that just now he was worried that she would damage her knees and wanted to pull her up.

But who told her she did something wrong?

After reforming and turning over a new leaf, wouldn't the words she wrote to Su Yunqing and Song Qiwen apply to her?

"oh."

Xibao then stood up, walked out of Song Youzhen's house in three steps, and stood in the yard, looking for a clean place to kneel down.

As a result, Song Youzhen finally relented.

"That's all, kneeling down as a punishment will hurt your body. Please practice "Butterfly Dream" that I will sing in a few days. I will take a test on you in tomorrow's morning class. If you can't sing, see how I punish you!"

Let's talk about "Butterfly Dream". This play is also known as "The Great Splitting the Coffin" or "Tian's Splitting the Coffin". It is adapted from the Yuan opera "Drum Pen Song Zhuangzi Sighs the Skeleton". In addition to Peking Opera, Han Opera, Ping Opera and Gui Opera are also

There is this play called "The Big Coffin Split"

", Sichuan Opera is called "Nanhua Hall", Hunan Opera, Yi Opera, Anhui Opera, and Qin Opera all have "Butterfly Dream", and Hebei Bangzi also has "Zhuangzi Fan Grave". This plot is all performed in places, which shows that the modified plot was widely circulated at that time.

The audience is quite broad.

The specific content will be discussed in the next chapter, so I won’t go into details here. It is worth mentioning that although the play had a very avant-garde realism-critical style at the time, the two protagonists in the play borrowed the names of Zhuangzi and his wife but did not refer to them.

He was described as a positive and upright figure, so he was criticized by the majority of Zhuangzi's admirers in the 1950s.

After that, it was banned from performing and was required not to be performed until the negative impact on historical figures was removed.

As a result, this classic play, which has been performed for hundreds of years and has been refined by three scholars, has almost been lost.

It was not until 2005 that a new arrangement was made with the cooperation of the Shanghai Kunqu Opera Troupe and teacher Gu Zhaokun, and it was finally put on the stage again.

Well, a special statement is that respecting historical figures is very important, and historical nihilism is unacceptable.
