After New Year's Eve, Cheng Fengtai did not see Shang Xirui because he was angry; Shang Xirui also did not see Cheng Fengtai because he was guilty. In fact, it was Shang Xirui who avoided Cheng Fengtai, at first he didn't feel it, until the Lantern Festival was over, Cao Guixiu came to urge people, Cheng Fengtai asked Niu Baiwen to look for adjutants, who wants to be a soldier these days, especially opera singers People are not at all connected with the ambitions of the ranks. Niu Baiwen searched and searched but couldn't find a clue, so someone came and volunteered, but it was La Yuehong from Shuiyun Tower who heard the news and came to sign up.

Originally, Cheng Fengtai didn't dare to think about Shuiyunlou, now it's different from the past, he insisted on thinking about Shuiyunlou, he agreed on the spot, waiting for Shang Xirui to talk to him. Unexpectedly, waiting left and right, Shang Xirui was nowhere to be seen. Cheng Fengtai went to the backstage for a day, someone was letting the wind out in the backstage, saw Cheng Fengtai from a distance, rushed in to report: "Leader! The second master is here!" Shang Xirui's make-up hadn't been removed yet, when he heard this, he stood up and wiped his head. Locker room run. Nineteen was getting dressed inside, Shang Xirui slammed into it, Nineteen cursed and knocked him out. The back alley is an unobstructed place, so you can't go there. Shang Xirui stomped his feet anxiously, Ren Liu and Cheng Fengtai's greetings were already heard at the door, Shang Xirui looked around desperately, gritted his teeth, and jumped onto the roof beams on the dressing table in a dazzling costume.

Everyone in Shuiyun Tower was shocked, only Shang Longsheng and Xiao Lai were used to seeing Shang Xirui's tricks from childhood to adulthood, and they were not surprised. Shang Longsheng sighed silently and closed his eyes, while Xiao Lai was ashamed, turned his head and walked out. Everyone else looked up at Shang Xirui's beam, giggling, Shang Xirui wiped his neck with his eyes wide open, and pointed around them: "Don't look at me! Lower your head! Lower your head!" Cheng Fengtai stepped on the words and came in, Shang Xirui Rui immediately hugged the pillar and held his breath.

Cheng Fengtai glanced at the crowd, didn't see Shang Xirui, but noticed that they were all looking at him. The actors were intimidated by Shang Xirui, they didn't know where to put their eyes, they could only focus on Cheng Fengtai. The two sides stared at each other for a while, Yang Baoli said out loud, "The leader is not here!"

Cheng Fengtai frowned: "I'm not looking for him!" He called La Yuehong to him, and discussed with him about going to the Cao Guixiu Department to take up a job in the near future. For this matter, La Yuehong and Shang Xirui were having a very tense fight, Shang Xirui kept saying that they were free to come and go, when there really was a child who wanted to change course, he would still come out to obstruct it, he was reluctant to let go of the talent in Liyuan, and he was also reluctant to let go of himself painstakingly. Cheng Fengtai pried the corner of Shuiyun Tower under Shang Xirui's feet, how could Shang Xirui swallow this, he stared fiercely at La Yuehong. La Yuehong felt the sharp gaze from the top of her head, and responded somewhat absent-mindedly. Cheng Fengtai noticed it, and said: "Although you are an adjutant, you don't have to go to the front line to charge, it's still a life-and-death business, and the military salary is not much higher than your singing opera. Think about it again, anyway, you are not the only one over there, Niu Baiwen found me again Two people..." La Yuehong heard this, fearing that someone else would replace him, she hurriedly said: "I will definitely go! I have already agreed with the leader! The leader promised to let me go!"

Shang Xirui hates people who open their eyes and talk nonsense the most! When did he promise to let people go! Not caring about being discovered by Cheng Fengtai, Shang Xirui couldn't bear it and let out a curse: "Fart! You pay me back the tuition fees first!" He said, taking off his embroidered opera shoes and throwing them at La Yuehong's face: "You're talking nonsense! Soldiers will be promising? You are so ungrateful and full of lies, you will be reckless everywhere!"

La Yuehong didn't know that he heard everything verbatim! Didn't you say that you are deaf? The next two embroidered shoes he threw were placed on the table, and he blushed and dodged away. Cheng Fengtai looked up at Shang Xirui on the beam, he was also shocked, he has seen mice running on the beam, but never an actor running on the beam! Is this going to be hanged or something? Then it became clear immediately that Shang Xirui hid on the beam to hide from him! It's really strange, who of the two of them bullied whom? Are the perpetrators scarier than the victims

Shang Xirui is indeed afraid of Cheng Fengtai, until today he knows what it means for a man to be afraid of his wife! This fear is a combination of love and shame, as well as a kind of pity. Thinking back on what happened on New Year's Eve, I only felt 70% drunk and 30% gallant. Zhu Bajie ate ginseng fruit and swallowed it whole. This unclear feeling actually made that night extraordinarily wonderful, Cheng Fengtai's people were cold, the air was hot, and his hair smelled like tobacco, he whispered in his ear: "You dare! We are endless! "What he wants is to have an endless relationship with Cheng Fengtai! Even with a knife hanging over his head, he's going to do it!

Thinking of the beauty, Shang Xirui smiled at Cheng Fengtai. There was an obvious flattery in this smile, Cheng Fengtai didn't see it, pointed at Shang Xirui and said: "You're so proud! Come down for me!"

Shang Xirui hugged the pillar and shook his head, his eyes with theatrical makeup were very big and vivid, revealing his pitiful face. But Cheng Fengtai was not moved at all, he said angrily: "Aren't you coming down?" He swept his eyes around, grabbed a porcelain jar on the table and threw it at Shang Xirui, unexpectedly the jar was full The gouache, this throw, didn't hit Shang Xirui, instead it sprinkled the fine white flour all over his head and face.

Shang Xirui laughed from above, and the actors in Shuiyunlou also laughed, when did they see Second Master Cheng look disrespectful? But he didn't dare to laugh out loud, and rushed to pat Cheng Fengtai. Shang Xirui's voice was heard by Cheng Fengtai, it was provocative! Furious, he grabbed a folding fan and threw it again, this time hitting Shang Xirui's knee without a hitch, which hurt a little. Shang Xirui flattened his lips at Cheng Fengtai, then he performed Wu Dalang's dwarf kung fu on the low and narrow beams, bent his knees and moved to the window.

Cheng Fengtai said angrily: "Shang Xirui! How dare you! How dare you run away and try! There is no end for us!"

It's never over again! Shang Xirui is not afraid to end up with him! After taking a deep look at him, he flipped out!

Cheng Fengtai was so angry that his eyes were staring, he pushed away Yang Baoli who was wiping the dust for him, grabbed the towel and wiped his face, threw the towel on the ground and wanted to chase after him. At this moment, Shang Longsheng opened his eyes and called out, "Second Master Cheng!"

Cheng Fengtai had no choice but to stop. Shang Longsheng stood up and clasped his fists towards Cheng Fengtai: "San'er is not sensible, and he only focused on teaching opera since he was a child, which delayed his virtue as a man. If there is something to offend the second master, I will apologize for him, and I will definitely do it for the second master." Master teach him well."

Cheng Fengtai replied: "Master, you are serious! He didn't offend me, we were just joking around." Cheng Fengtai had experienced Shang Longsheng's actions before, and it was nothing more than beating Shang Xirui in front of Cheng Fengtai to calm down Cheng Fengtai . This is also annoying, it's not that a child loses a fight and goes to his parents, is there any dispute between him and Shang Xirui that he can't resolve by himself, and ask his natal brothers to intervene? Cheng Fengtai had a few words with Shang Longsheng, and it was impossible to arrest Shang Xirui. He walked forward, while Shang Xirui looked out the window on the back: "Going away?"

Shang Longsheng pointed to the ground: "Get down!"

Shang Xirui rolled down, acting like a big colorful cat, the costume was wet with snow, Shang Xirui quickly peeled off the clothes and handed them to Ren Liu. Ren Liu said: "Where did the class leader learn his dwarf skills? Really good!" Shang Xirui gave him a look.

Shang Longsheng cleared his throat, and everyone avoided him. According to Shang Longsheng's temper, he should not care about his younger brother's affairs, and if he wanted to, he would call first and ask later. But this time, Shang Longsheng was not ready to do anything. No matter how Shang Xirui offended Cheng Fengtai, Shang Xirui vented his grievances on Cheng Fengtai, so his mood improved and he regained some of his former lively appearance. The elder brother saw it in his eyes, so he couldn't avoid selfishness, and couldn't bear to blame him.

Shang Long said: "There is no reason to hide for a lifetime, if there is any knot, untie it as soon as possible." Shang Xirui lowered his head and remained silent.

Shang Xirui was afraid that Cheng Fengtai would blurt out hurtful words in his anger. Shang Xirui also knows that he can't stand the stimulation now, so he avoids it. Cheng Fengtai never went to the house in Dongjiaomin Lane again, he came backstage a few times claiming to be looking for La Yuehong, every time he came, he was aggressive and cold, Shang Xirui didn't dare to show his face.

This time Shang Xirui is really not there. La Yuehong's going to join the army has been confirmed, it's been hard these few days in Shuiyun Tower, Shang Xirui took the lead in treating him coldly, and the rest dare not talk to him, deliberately not to exclude others, let him be there every day Suffering in the troupe, he only hoped that Cheng Fengtai would quickly take him to the army. Cheng Fengtai came once every three days and left after a few words, but there was no news of his departure, in fact he just came to see Shang Xirui and see how this little bastard was going to end up. It's not that Cheng Fengtai didn't warn that this is a line that cannot be crossed, Shang Xirui did it on purpose, he suffered a big grievance outside, he used him as a punching bag! He didn't say a word when it was over, and threw it on the ground, freezing him for half the night! What does he owe Shang Xirui? To suffer this! What a waste of loving him for so many years!

After finishing talking with Cheng Fengtai, La Yuehong sent Cheng Fengtai to the door. There is also a car and two people at the door, they are Amber and Zhou Xiangyun. Amber is desperate to drag Zhou Xiangyun into the car and take him to "play". Zhou Xiangyun had eaten well in the past few years and had gained strength. She held the electric pole with one hand and refused to go no matter what. Seeing it, La Yuehong frowned, made another way, and said, "Second Master, let's go this way." There were other actors from Shuiyun Tower walking around, but they all turned a blind eye. Originally, no one was willing to punish Amber for a Zhou Xiangyun, but later Shang Xirui said that he didn't care about the private life of his subordinates, let alone others. It's not as good as an idle movie fan who will turn around and take a second look when they see it.

Cheng Fengtai never sees the bullying of men and women, seeing those opera singers look like they have nothing to do with him, it enrages him even more, thinking that their opera singers are really heartless! Cheng Fengtai left La Yuehong behind, and walked up to Amber with a smirk: "Master Baylor, what are you doing? It's so ugly to see people coming and going!"

An Bei Le rolled his eyelids at him: "Second Master Cheng." His subordinates couldn't help but relax, Zhou Xiangyun took advantage of this moment, threw An Bei Le away and hid behind Cheng Fengtai. Amber looked back and forth between the two, and laughed strangely: "Second Master Cheng's hands are so long! Master and apprentice are stewed in one pot! Merry! Ah? Really Merry!"

Cheng Fengtai and this thing can't speak human words, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter how many are stewed in one pot, once it's in the pot, the taste will be raw." Amber was speechless, Cheng Fengtai cupped his hands and said: "Joke! It's all Just kidding! Lord Belle, I'm sorry today, this has to be thrown into my pot, look." Cheng Fengtai laughed a lot, put one hand on Zhou Xiangyun's shoulder, and the two got into the Cheng family's car.

Zhou Xiangyun was rescued by Cheng Fengtai time and time again, wringing her fingers in embarrassment. He deserved to be so dishonest and ridiculed by others, Cheng Fengtai probably thought so too, so he didn't say a word of comfort, only let out a long sigh, drove around outside, and sent Zhou Xiangyun back to the courtyard.

Cheng Fengtai forgot where Shuiyun Tower was, and what kind of circle the singers were in. Such a trivial matter, everything went wrong the next day. Shang Xirui was deaf, but he didn't miss a word of gossip, it was said that Cheng Fengtai disliked Shang Xirui's deafness, and even more disliked Shang Xirui's collusion with the Japanese, it was not good with Shang Xirui, but after all, he went on a detour, and for a while Unable to get away from Long Yang's love, he developed another rookie Zhou Xiangyun as a target. Isn't this, actually snatching someone from Amber's mouth! Shang Xirui let out a laugh when he heard this, slapped the table and shook his head. How deep Cheng Fengtai's feelings for him are, he knows it clearly in his heart, of course he won't believe these words, but these words are not for nothing, he has his own use! Poor Zhou Xiangyun was quite disturbed when she heard the rumors, she found Shang Xirui who had good ears and tried to explain it clearly, but Shang Xirui didn't listen. The other actors even frightened him, saying that he and the troupe master's men were unclean, and that sooner or later he would be beaten to death by the troupe master!

When Cheng Fengtai came to Shuiyun Tower next time to talk about La Yuehong, Shang Xirui stopped avoiding him, rushed up to push La Yuehong away, and said: "You still have the face to fight with me! What did you do behind my back! I'm deaf, don't you know? Ah! I'm so sorry!" He called again: "Little Zhou! Bitch! Come here! See if I don't beat you to death!" Zhou Xiangyun stayed there, not daring to go forward. But Cheng Fengtai saw through Shang Xirui's scheming at a glance. Shang Xirui thought that if he found a fault and made trouble for no reason, his fault could be offset by the hatchback, so he didn't mention it anymore. He has always been like this, how big a mistake he has made, he can get over by being clumsy and coquettish, the other end is made of gold, it can't be lower! Cheng Fengtai's anger had almost disappeared, but now he was furious again! Without saying a word, he turned his head and walked away.

After that, Cheng Fengtai didn't even look for La Yuehong, and remained silent for several days, really moved the atmosphere. Shang Xirui became completely anxious, and embarrassed to ask for advice, wandered around by himself, mustered up the courage to call Cheng Fengtai, the call came to Mr. Tian, Cheng Fengtai didn't listen, next was Mr. Shang, even less Cheng Fengtai ignore. When it was Shang Xirui's turn, the little actors came to report that Second Master Cheng was watching in the box. As soon as Shang Xirui finished singing, before leaving the stage, Cheng Fengtai got up and left without delay. Shang Xirui was dumbfounded, outsiders thought that opera singers have a way of flattering others, but Shang Xirui is like a pampered young master, he has always been highly praised in interpersonal relations, if he does something wrong or says something wrong, someone will give him a gift Steps, turn around for him. This shady affair with Cheng Fengtai, coupled with deafness, has made Shang Xirui helpless, really worried.

It stayed like this until March, on the day of Jingzhe, Shang Xirui came on stage deaf. He may be rehearsing for plays now, when his ears are good, he will go on stage; The movie fans are very considerate of him, buying tickets for Shuiyun Tower every day, looking forward to it like a treasure. Today, in order to win the prize of Jing Zhe's solar term, Shang Xirui sang it whether he could hear it or not. When he came up to the stage, he wore a plain gown, behind him Li Qiaosong held a seat and a piano, and a flute was pinned to his waist. The person with a clear background opened his mouth and said a few words of his own, he said: " Everyone knows that my ears are hurt, and thanks to you, no matter how much wind and rain comes to cheer me up. Thank you!" Shang Xirui is not used to showing his true face, as if he had taken off his armor, he shyly looked down at the audience He bowed: "To tell you the truth, I woke up early this morning, and my ears didn't slow down. Too many strings disturbed my heart. Therefore, I don't dare to waste money, and I don't need any clothes. Let me show you in another way, okay?" If it's not good, you just take it for a fresh look, please forgive me!"

Shang Xirui sings this is the element. A voice paired with a qin or a flute is often seen at gatherings of literati and refined scholars. It is said that cutting out the complicated and simplifying it is actually more of a test of skill. But when literati gather, what they play is elegance. When the common people come to the theater, what they see is the excitement and excitement. I have never seen an a cappella that can still sell tickets! Needless to say, the next day someone in the industry will definitely scold the street, scolding Shang Xirui for saving money, for having such a big face to support a show by himself, to treat himself as a character, and to earn black-hearted money.

The audience below did not applaud, applaud, or leave the table. Shang Xirui gestured to Li Qiaosong, the first Kunqu opera was sung word by word, riding on the melodious sound of the flute, it was intoxicating. Cheng Fengtai was born in the south of the Yangtze River, but he didn't understand a single word, he only felt that his voice was comfortable, and the sharp words he bit were pleasant, which was the artistic conception of "the bright moon shines among the pine trees, and the clear spring flows on the rocks". Otherwise, who could tell that Shang Xirui's ears are bad? Anyway, Cheng Fengtai couldn't hear it, and presumably he couldn't hear it in the seat, because everyone sat there raptly.

Shang Xirui's ears are bad, and he didn't want to improve his voice, he drank several times in the middle, took a break, and sang for a full two hours, and called Yang Baoli, Zhou Xiangyun and other small actors to accompany the play, picking out the children's good at After the song was sung, I introduced everyone's background and strengths to Zuo'er. Cheng Fengtai watched from the box, he was still angry with Shang Xirui, but he didn't know what kind of regret was in his eyes. Cheng Fengtai saw that Shang Xirui was afraid that he would fail, so he used his fame to help his younger generation! Only when you truly love a cause can you be so selfless and willing to let people step on your shoulders. He really has many beautiful qualities that are unknown and misunderstood. If Cheng Fengtai thinks about it any more, he will forget to be angry with Shang Xirui, he was stunned for a while, when the show ended, Cheng Fengtai put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked downstairs, suddenly he heard a firecracker from the audience, no, no Firecrackers, not long after the new year, he heard too many firecrackers, so he mistook it for the sound of cannons.

Cheng Fengtai suddenly turned his head and looked down, and saw Shang Xirui fell backwards, a gust of blood instantly soaked half of his cotton robe, then people ran away, screaming, and people surrounded Shang Xirui in all directions. Cheng Fengtai ran down like crazy, wading through the crowd to Shang Xirui's side, and picked him up in his arms. The blood trickled out, soaked Cheng Fengtai's skin through his clothes, and soaked into his heart. Backstage people rushed out, shouting to catch the murderer, shouting to save the class leader, Cheng Fengtai didn't realize it as if he was deaf, he was unconscious for quite a while, until Ren Liu came to pull him: "Second Master! Second Master, you Get rid of the class leader! This has to be sent to the hospital!" After pulling twice, Cheng Fengtai suddenly woke up.

Ren Liu went to pat Shang Xirui's face again: "Leader, class leader! Let's hold on! This breath can't be swallowed!"

Shang Xirui opened his eyes, let out a breath, his face pale: "Fuck you...don't let him go!"

At the moment when the murderer was leaving the show, he stood upright in front of Shang Xirui and fired a shot at Shang Xirui. Fortunately, it was the curtain call, today Shang Xirui was not acting, Shang Xirui had normal vigilance and skill, he dodged instinctively, the bullet gnawed off a small piece of bone and flesh. If Shang Xirui puts on make-up in the play and concentrates his soul out of his body, there is absolutely no chance of surviving this shot.

The doctor operated to clean the wound, clipped out the broken bones, and served them on enamel dishes for relatives to look at. In fact, it was only a few scum the size of a grain of rice, Cheng Fengtai glanced at the things in the enamel basin, his whole body tensed up, he choked for breathing, and turned his head quickly. Shang Longsheng and Xiao Lai watched it too, Shang Longsheng frowned and didn't speak, Xiao Lai cried a lot. The actors from Shuiyunlou who came to the hospital looked at each other one by one, making voices of regret. After a while Shang Xirui was pushed out from the operating room, the anesthetic hadn't worn off yet, and it was uncomfortable to sleep like a dead body. The nurse asked the family members to sign and pay the fee to make the doctor's order, Cheng Fengtai didn't discuss with Shang Longsheng a word, and went on his own, Shang Longsheng didn't care. With Cheng Fengtai's temper, he would have to ask a lot of questions when he saw the doctor, such as if there were any sequelae, if there were any postoperative taboos, etc., before he finished asking, Shang Xirui woke up.

Shang Xirui started blowing as soon as he woke up, saying: "Before that man had time to draw his gun, he stood in front of me, and I felt strange, why was it strange, he was murderous. Thanks to me, if I were an ordinary person, I wouldn't have half my life in the rivers and lakes." Experience, you must die today!"

Shang Xirui was stunned by the anesthetic for an hour, and when he spoke, his throat became hoarse. Shang Longsheng said: "How old are you? Where did you get half a lifetime of experience in the world?" He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Shang Xirui's forehead hair. It was rare for him to make such an expressive gesture: "Save me Use your strength to heal your injuries! You are already deaf, but no matter how bad your arm is, let's see how you sing!"

The little nurse sucked the medicine into the syringe, and laughed when she heard this: "It turns out that Mr. is an opera singer! Let me tell you! I have never seen a person who can talk so much just after waking up from anesthesia, and his verbal skills are amazing." Yes!" Shang Xirui felt embarrassed, after receiving an injection, he stopped talking. The other opera singers felt that they were redundant, said goodbye and said they would come to visit another day, leaving behind Xiao Lai and Shang Longsheng, two muffled gourds, the ward was very quiet, Shang Xirui was sleepy again, just closed his eyes, Cheng Fengtai is back.

When Shang Xirui saw Cheng Fengtai coming from the door, two lines of tears fell first, and then he said "ah", as if he had been shot again, and moaned, "It hurts me! It hurts me, Second Master !"

Cheng Fengtai's clothes were stained with dried Shang Xirui's blood, his face was very haggard, he was really shocked to hear the sore throat, he rushed to him in two steps. Shang Longsheng was also frightened, he quickly stood up to make way for Cheng Fengtai, he was doing well just now, and he was just bragging, how could he howl

Cheng Fengtai knelt by the bed and touched Shang Xirui's face: "Does it hurt? Does it hurt?"

Shang Xirui said while crying: "It hurts me to death!"

So Cheng Fengtai also died of pain, put his cheek against Shang Xirui's forehead, and murmured in great pain: "Damn it..." It didn't kill Shang Xirui, it killed him, that heartbroken look .

Shang Longsheng seemed to understand a little bit, and turned to look at Xiaolai. Xiao Lai is not surprised, his face is expressionless. Shang Long secretly said how many years you two have been getting along, why did you still fall for his tricks? He also felt that his younger brother was too ignorant to intentionally torture people and harm his virtue, so he persuaded him: "It will hurt a little after the anesthetic is over. It doesn't matter if the bullet didn't hit the flesh. Second master don't need to..."

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Fengtai raised his head in pain and resentment: "The bones are all rotting! How can it not matter!" He swallowed, and said angrily: "Brother, go back and rest for a while! I'm here to watch Boss Shang enough!"

Shang Longsheng was contradicted, but he was not angry at all. There are people who are willing to be fooled by Shang Xirui over and over again, being deceived with sincerity, and willing to die, so what else is there to say, the elder brother can only be happy for him.

Shang Longsheng and Xiao Lai left. Shang Xirui was crying hard, his brow covered with sweat, he rubbed his head against Cheng Fengtai, sweat and tears all on his body, and said in a muffled voice: "Second Master, have you relieved your hatred when you see me like this?"

Shang Xirui is really a heartless thing, to say such a sentence at this time is to goug out Cheng Fengtai's flesh, Cheng Fengtai's tears that he endured for so long finally fell.
