What the old lady said was very emotional. Jin Fengju felt a chill in his heart. He immediately straightened his face and said softly: "Yes, my grandson will remember the religious teachings of his ancestors and will not let such a tragedy happen."
Let's say that Fu Qiuning returned to Wanfengxuan and intended to educate Jin Zangjiao, but when he saw his son and daughter nodding and staggering around in sleep, he couldn't bear it anymore and had to order Yu Niang to help them go to bed. There was nothing to say all night, and I got up the next day to tidy up. Because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the school also had a day off. Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao didn't have to go there today. Plus they slept late last night, so they couldn't help but Lie on the bed for a while longer. After getting up and washing up, it's the end of Mao Shi.
Fu Qiuning then called his two children to his side, and asked Yu Niang and Yu Jie to sit on the left and right sides. Fang stared at Zang Jiao and said, "Jiao'er, do you know you were wrong?"
Jin Zangjiao thought she had escaped, but she didn't expect that she would be scolded in the end. She had to lower her head and whispered: "My daughter knows, I shouldn't have stood up last night and made my mother suffer by saying those unintentional words." I beg my mother to forgive me for the insult caused by my father’s and wife’s words.”
Fu Qiuning sighed and said: "Since you heard me sing the first line of the opera, I have warned you that no one should know about this. Maybe you don't understand in your heart, why can't others know? This is What are you afraid of when it comes to things that are pleasing to the eye and the ear? I just don’t want to come forward to educate you. Now that Zang Feng and Zang Jiao are older, I will tell you what really makes me afraid and panicked.”
As she spoke, she stood up and walked slowly to the window, seeming to collect her thoughts, and then said in a deep voice: "Jiao'er thought I was angry because of Jiang's verbal insult last night. In fact, What does that mean? In this deep house and compound, the most indispensable thing is verbal confrontation. Don't talk about me, the real wife who is like an abandoned wife. Even if she is the Jiang family, she controls all the power in the family, and she doesn't know how to accept it on weekdays. How many sarcastic remarks she made. Besides, I still said the same thing, it’s just words and swords. You don’t need to pay attention to her. Anyway, you won’t lose a piece of flesh on your body.”
She turned around and looked at the four people sitting across from her with burning eyes. Her voice became even deeper and she said word by word: "But the Huangmei Opera and Yue Opera I sang, if you think about it carefully, have you ever heard anyone sing it?" Passed? That’s it for Feng’er and Jiaoer. They are still young and have not been exposed to others. But Yujie, Yuniang, especially Yujie, before me, you were changed hands by human traffickers several times. It can be said that you have traveled all over the world. Across the country, let me ask you, have you ever heard of this?"
Yujie thought hard for a while and muttered: "To be honest, I am used to hearing grandma sing these things. Then I thought about it, this Yue opera is slightly similar to the ditty hummed by the boat girls in the Jiangnan area, but it is not as refined as that ditty." It sounds so much better, and the lyrics are also elegant. But I have never heard of Huangmei Opera and Kunqu Opera."
Fu Qiuning nodded and said: "That's it. By chance, I met that weird old woman and secretly learned these things from her. Even my mother didn't know. I just thought she sang well that day, and she asked me to just Being able to learn secretly and not telling anyone, I just thought it was fun and didn’t think much about it. When I returned to the capital many years later and I gradually grew up, there was no one around me who had even hummed half a line of this Yue Opera Huangmei Opera. Sometimes I secretly I asked those opera singers for advice. They said they had never heard of it and asked me where I got it from. I could only make up a lie and pass it by. Over the years, the more I think about this matter, the more afraid I become. The so-called abnormality is a monster. It's not that you don't know. Although I have a reputation for talent, I can never create these kinds of plays. What's more, those wonderful plays seem to have exhausted the wisdom of countless people and passed down their talents from generation to generation. Got it. How can I complete it with my own strength? But the more this happens, the more abnormal these things become, and I must be more cautious and never dare to let it reveal the slightest clue. Otherwise, this Houmen is as deep as the sea, how many overt and covert struggles are there? Nowadays, I am being regarded as a thorn in the side by the wives and concubines of the young marquis. Once this opera is exposed, they may say it sounds good when they first hear it. However, once they ask about it, where did I learn it? What do you want me to say? Go Are you looking for that old lady? She died the year I left, and now I am afraid she has turned into a pile of bones. But besides her, who else in the world can testify for me? Prove that I learned from others. ? No one testifies. What should I do if someone deliberately frames me? This is a life-threatening matter. You tell me, how can I not be afraid?"
The words made Yujie Yuniang and Jinzangfeng and Jinzangjiao brothers and sisters break out in cold sweat. Living in this era, they naturally understand how powerful this kind of thing is. It is often said that the wives and concubines of some wealthy families gave birth to monsters and were secretly forced to drink poison. No wonder grandma is so timid, but no, once someone uses this reason to demonize her, how can she still be here? A foothold in the government? Even life may not be saved.
Seeing that they were shocked, Fu Qiuning finally breathed a sigh of relief. He secretly said that his biggest secret has finally been resolved in front of Yujie and others. From now on, as long as he lives in Wanfengxuan and occasionally has sex, that is, he must never expose it again, there will definitely be no danger. .
He just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something else, but unexpectedly he heard a burst of laughter outside the door, and then a familiar voice said loudly: "I asked you why you refused to sing last night. It turns out that you take this matter so seriously. Serious." Then the door was pushed open, and Jin Fengju Shi Shiran walked in.
Fu Qiuning's body softened, and he fell down on the couch with a frightened sound. His hands and feet felt cold, and he secretly thought it was over. He was careful, but he didn't expect that this guy would eavesdrop outside the door. He... How could he? Came here so early? Besides, are you done in the morning? If everything is over, why doesn't the emperor keep him here today? For a moment, my mind was so chaotic that I didn’t know what I was thinking, and I even forgot to salute.
Seeing her pale face, Jin Fengju felt nervous and hurriedly said to the equally nervous Yujie Yuniang and her children: "Don't worry, only your father will hear your mother's words, and there will be no one outside. Yuniang, you lead the way first. Young Master and Miss, go to the study, Qiuning and I will have a few words."
Yujie and Yuniang were already at a loss. They looked up at Fu Qiuning, but saw that she was also unresponsive. They had no choice but to lead the two children to the study room, still worried about Fu Qiuning.
Here Jin Fengju came and sat down next to Fu Qiuning. Seeing that she was still distracted, he couldn't help but hold her hand and said softly: "Why are you so scared? Your hands are cold, what on earth is it?" Such a play makes you sure that no one in the country can sing it? Do you even think that 'abnormality is a monster'?"
Fu Qiuning was really panicking and couldn't help herself. Her operas were all brought about by time travel in her past life. This was her biggest secret. Suddenly it was discovered, or it was discovered by this shrewd and unfathomable man. She How can you still stay calm and rational? However, when he heard Jin Fengju ask this question, Fu Qiuning immediately realized: This is the only opportunity to clear his name. He must seize it firmly and make Jin Fengju believe that he is helpless and innocent. As long as he believes it , even if these operas are spread accidentally in the future, there may still be a glimmer of hope to save one's life.
Thinking of this, with three parts fear and seven parts acting skills, tears fell down like beads. He looked at Jin Fengju blankly and said, "When did you come outside the door? How much did you... hear?"
Jin Fengju smiled and said: "When I came, I saw that the door of your main hall was closed. I was curious, so I ordered Jin Ming to wait in the yard, and I secretly came to the door. I was listening to what you said about those verbal insults. What? You won’t lose any flesh on your body. Don’t tell me, you are really broad-minded and can see things. If half of my wives and concubines could have your insight, I wouldn’t have to worry.”
Fu Qiuning seemed not to have heard his words, and murmured: "Since I have been eavesdropping since then, I have also heard everything since then. Master, you have heard everything." At this point, it is even more so. Tears fell like rain, and he shook his head and said sadly: "Sir, this matter has been hanging in my mind and body for more than ten years. I am worried about it every day, but I am lucky enough to have it. I thought I would do it in this night breeze." Xuan and the rest of them will grow old together. Apart from them, these dramas will not spread to the outside world. Who knew that by some combination of circumstances, Jiao'er almost exposed it last night? I was so frightened that I didn't sleep all night. If I were to pursue it seriously. , there is really no way to tell. Over the years, I have been grateful to Mama Na Ye for teaching me these plays, which gave me something to rely on in this boring life. But I blame her even more, why did she teach me these things? I wonder where she came from? Why are there these dramas that have never appeared? It’s just that she has turned into loess long ago, and there is no answer. She only puts all kinds of dangers on my shoulders and lets me suffer in vain. These pressures."
Jin Fengju asked curiously: "The opera you are talking about is what you recorded on the table that day, right? I originally thought there was only one page, but according to your opinion, it turned out to be a complete opera. This is indeed not something that can be completed by one person. Well, it’s useless to say this. You can sing it to me, and I want to see what kind of unique drama is it that makes you afraid of being like this?"
Fu Qiuning took a deep breath, knowing that she could no longer hide the matter from Jin Fengju, so she wiped her tears, reluctantly put away her sorrow, drank another cup of tea, and pretended to have been brewing for a long time to stop her sadness. , and then started to sing a classic Yue Opera excerpt "Fortune Telling" from "Prince of the Desert".
