Cheng Fengtai and Shang Xirui turned around and forgot what happened the day before. Their lives are too exciting, and they have seen so many people. The small troubles of the little people are not worth worrying about in their eyes, but other people's families are not so calm and breezy.
Let's not mention Sheng Ziyun's resentment for now. Mr. Lu booked a box the next day to listen to Shang Xirui's play. After that, he must come to every scene, and he didn't listen to the previous scenes, just to wait for Shang Xirui. If Shang Xirui sings the finale, Mr. Lu will get up after singing, don't listen to the main one; if Shang Xirui sits in the civil and martial arts field and plays the huqin, Mr. Lu will wait until he finishes the opera. Later, he was instructed by others to follow the routine of performing operas in Liyuanxing, sending flower baskets, adding ostentation, setting up a table for dinner, paying reporters to write many articles praising Shang Xirui in the newspaper, and trying to To learn to sing a voice. Although Cheng Fengtai said that he was very flattering to Mr. Lu, it was entirely out of flattery to his father and family background. In terms of this person alone, Cheng Fengtai regarded him as the same type as Sheng Ziyun - a brat who didn't have the same hair. And Shang Xirui is nothing more than one more fancier with status, one more is not too much, and one less is not too little, he doesn't take it to heart at all.
This day Cheng Fengtai was waiting for Shang Xirui at the backstage of a small theater near the bridge, the backstage of the theater was not as spacious as Qingfeng Theatre, it could fit a long sofa, and a few camphorwood opera boxes here would be full. Cheng Fengtai was bored and irritable waiting, sitting on a big box and smoking a cigarette. This is logically not allowed, but no one dared to say anything about him, he and Shang Xirui were intimate and intimate, in Shuiyun Tower, the actors already treated him as the proprietress. After a while Shang Xirui got off the stage panting, sweat soaking the collar of his coat, Young Master Lu followed behind him, chattering endlessly. Mr. Lu is now able to speak a little bit about the opera, and he can talk about their opera nouns, which is much better than Cheng Fengtai. Cheng Fengtai has been with Shang Xirui for several years, but he still doesn't have much interest in drama. Young Master Lu knew what he liked, and annoyed Shang Xirui so much that he sighed, thinking that Sheng Ziyun wouldn't be coming for a while, who would want to change it to something even louder than Sheng Ziyun, half a bucket of water dangled around, splashing people all over Shui Hua'er, when he can knock him down with one punch, how pure it should be.
Seeing Shang Xirui's brows were tightly frowned, Mr. Lu seemed to be full of sadness when he said nothing, he felt that even this was touching, so he pestered him to take off his make-up again, and was sent away reluctantly. As he walked forward, Shang Xirui complained in public: "Oh! It's so annoying! It's so annoying!" Facing the mirror while picking velvet flowers, he turned his head and said to Cheng Fengtai: "Second Master, play with me!"
Cheng Fengtai has been ignored for a long time, Mr. Lu only knows that Cheng Fengtai has invested in two theaters and has a cooperative relationship with Shang Xirui, so he doesn't regard him as a love rival. Cheng Fengtai sat on the play box and watched helplessly as Mr. Lu tried his best to please Shang Xirui with all his knowledge, he found it very funny, he didn't know why they all liked to sit and talk with Shang Xirui, as if they wanted to get close to Shang Xirui, causing Shang Xirui Rui's attention, play is the only way. However, what resounding insights can Peking opera lovers who have become monks on the way to tell? This set is almost a waste of effort, and it only makes jokes for experts. With Shang Xirui's opera skills, do you still have to rely on fanciers? He used to have long conversations with Shang Xirui every night, and it was also based on drama and people, purely because he became interested in Shang Xirui, and what he talked about was the story of Shang Xirui.
Cheng Fengtai held a cigarette in his mouth, smiled badly and said: "I won't play with you, anyway, there is the world's number one swordsman to play with you."
Everyone looked at him puzzled. Cheng Fengtai explained: "The number one swordsman in front of Guan Gong's gate!"
Everyone thought this metaphor was good, and they laughed a lot, knowing that Master Cheng was the most humorous. Shang Xirui also grumbled and frowned, feeling so annoyed with this half-baked guy.
Yuan Lan said: "If you want to talk about our troupe leader, his temper is much better now than when he was a child, and he can be a human being." The senior brothers and sisters have no objection to this sentence, and the later little opera singers and Cheng Fengtai were all surprised, Shang Xirui Now this heartless person is actually better than in the past, so what kind of a dick was it in the past
Nineteen went on to say: "When Wu Sheng, the lead singer of the class, became famous when he sang, there was a fancier like Young Master Lu who would drag him around, and the head of the class would say: 'I'm going to shit! See you later. I’m sorry for you!’ Take the road and run away! No matter what your status is, you can’t get off the stage! Our old class leader beat the class leader badly because of this!”
Cheng Fengtai looked at Shang Xirui and asked with a smile: "Oh? You used to be like this?"
Shang Xirui still had his head shaved when he was born, when he felt uncomfortable, or when he was shy and angry, he would subconsciously rub his green head. He and his fellow fanciers escaped by excrement and urine, rubbing their heads wildly while talking. Nineteen failed to describe the situation in detail, and the old people recalled the situation at that time, but it was very gimmicky. Now Shang Xirui has indeed grown up.
When they thought of this, they saw Shang Xirui reaching out his hand to fish the top of his head twice, and Xiao Lai was unloading the film for him, so he hit his hand. So they laughed again.
Sending Shang Xirui home that night, Shang Xirui didn't take what Mr. Lu praised seriously in his heart, but he wanted to say it out of his mouth, to make Cheng Fengtai jealous, just to annoy him. Said how precious and rare the head that Mr. Lu found for him was. Cheng Fengtai listened with dissatisfaction, didn't say anything, just glanced at Shang Xirui. In the end, Shang Xirui got too seductive, got too involved in the drama, and actually expressed a little bit of resentment when he was not married when he was married. Cheng Fengtai was so angry that he grabbed Shang Xirui's neck and bit him hard, biting him until he yelled: "I'm going to publish a newspaper right now! Publicize the two of us, lest anyone else think about it!" He said He patted Shang Xirui's ass: "It will save you restlessness! What are you doing! I've booked this place! What's wrong with you planning to sell zero seats?"
Shang Xirui raised his foot and kicked: "What a fart you are!"
Cheng Fengtai dodged that leg, still patting his ass: "It's just covering your ass!"
Shang Xirui said: "Then I'll fart for you right now - make you look like a dog!"
Cheng Fengtai smiled and said: "Really? Is it the dog's fart?"
The old Geha in front laughed out loud, but swallowed it back embarrassed, afraid of offending Shang Xirui. Shang Xirui's side was already furious, he punched and kicked in the cramped back seat, causing Cheng Fengtai to be beaten and slapped several times, and Xiao Lai's big braid was accidentally pulled in the middle. The two of them were a little angry, when Shangzhai got out of the car, Cheng Fengtai grabbed his arm and said, "You wait for me at home tomorrow, and I will kill you."
Shang Xirui raised his proud head: "Am I afraid of you?"
Cheng Fengtai said: "If you run away and disappear, you are afraid of me, so I will set fire to the house."
Shang Xirui gave him a piss, kicked the car before entering the house. As soon as he left, because of the lack of him and the noise he made, the back seat seemed to have a lot more space, and it seemed almost empty. Cheng Fengtai sat there arranging his clothes and hair, sighed from exhaustion, and still smiled angrily, feeling as if he had fought with wild dogs on the side of the road. Lao Ge glanced at Cheng Fengtai from the mirror, and saw an obvious black footprint on his white shirt, he couldn't help laughing in Shanghai dialect: "Second Master, boys and girls are really different!"
Cheng Fengtai also replied in his hometown dialect: "I'm out of luck, I fell into the trap of an opera singer! When I first met, I was so cute, quiet, and shy. Who knew that once the packaging was unpacked, it turned out to be like this? !" Now that Cheng Fengtai has suffered Shang Xirui's loss, and is angry with Shang Xirui, he will complain to people in the know that Shang Xirui's product is not the right version. But Lao Ge looked at his expression, he definitely didn't look like he was cheated and wanted to return the product.
Cheng Fengtai tried his best to brush off the big footprints on his shirt, shook his head and said to Lao Ge: "I'm so surprised, how can there be a Dandan singer like this? How can such a Dandan sing well?"
Lao Ge said: "Didn't you hear that Boss Shang was originally a singer? That's probably why he is a little different from other boys who sing Dan."
Cheng Fengtai said: "What is he singing about, Lu Zhishen?"
Both of them laughed, and after laughing for a while, Lao Ge was still there to comfort his second master: "After all, it's a boy, it's normal to be a bit barbaric." Repeating this repeatedly made Cheng Fengtai feel aggrieved. He and Shang Xirui sometimes clashed with each other, it would be a bit of gunpowder, and when there was a gunpowder smell between men, they had to flirt with each other. Xin Dao Could it be that in the eyes of onlookers, Shang Xirui has risen from flirting to barbaric? Then what have you become? Didn't he become a punching bag? He couldn't help trying to save face and said: "He, little friend, since he got acquainted with me, he has been fighting and fighting for nothing serious, I don't have the same experience as him, it's too much of a joke."
Lao Ge promised, thinking that you just want to see and see, but you can't beat him, right
Cheng Fengtai was determined to show off his style to Shang Xirui, and the next morning, stuck between two meal times, he drove to Cao's mansion by himself. Commander Cao has been living in an apartment for the past few years, and installed three telephones in the study to command Cao Guixiu and his batches of troops remotely. The higher-ups were still worried about him, forcing him to pretend to be sick and get away, and he didn't show his face to the outside world for a while. In detail, it was another secret battle.
Cheng Fengtai jumped two or three stairs, and jumped lightly to the door of Commander Cao's office. The doctor had just finished measuring the blood pressure of Commander Cao. Commander Cao was not wearing military uniform, but a silk nightgown. Cheng Meixin was standing beside him, pretending to be As if something was wrong. This Western doctor was originally dispatched by the higher authorities, but he was bribed for some reason. The side who turned to Commander Cao was very protective.
Cheng Fengtai smiled and raised his head, and said: "Mister Fang, how is the commander? Are you all right?"
Because Dr. Fang was young, handsome, and smooth-talking, he was also very pampered in front of the commander. While writing the medical records, he said without raising his head: "Nothing else, just high blood pressure, tracheitis, coronary heart disease—you have to... Otherwise, I’ll give you another cerebral hemorrhage, okay? Commander? You don’t have to go to the meeting next month.”
Commander Cao scolded him with a smile: "Fucking curse on me!"
Doctor Fang said: "Then how about a nutritional injection? Commander?"
Commander Cao laughed and scolded again: "Your mother is being beaten! Get out of here!"
Dr. Fang raised his eyebrows and pushed his glasses with a smile, and left after writing the medical records. After so many years of life, Commander Cao didn't say much about his foul language, but now he just said one sentence, which shows that he really likes Dr. Fang. Cheng Meixin poured a cup of coffee for Cheng Fengtai, and said with a smile: "There are no rules, the commander is used to it." A diamond ring that was usually worn in his hand flickered, Cheng Fengtai took the opportunity to grab Cheng Meixin's hand, and pretended to look at it Fan. This diamond is not worth a lot, it is all made up of thin diamonds in the shape of a flower, which is quite trendy.
Cheng Fengtai said: "Sister, this ring is quite modern! Where did you bring it? It seems brighter than your blue one."
Cheng Meixin turned the back of her hand towards the window to admire herself, and said, "It's from Switzerland. Didn't Director Wang's youngest daughter go on a trip to Europe? She brought some jewelry and a watch. Hey, she brought this coffee pot back too." of."
Cheng Fengtai nodded, and said to Commander Cao: "The teacher who robbed me last time, brother-in-law, I'm going to Tongtongzi! I thought it wouldn't look good to send money, and he was afraid of his wife, so I gave a set of diamond jewelry Give it to the teacher's wife. Guess what happened? The official is not big, and the vision is not small, but it was confiscated, so I probably didn't like it."
Commander Cao said, "You boy just can't bear to spend money."
Cheng Fengtai laughed and said: "What's wrong with the world now, you should spend some money, and you can get sister's big blue diamond ring anywhere? Brother-in-law, you know a lot of Russians, or you can ask me, and I will entrust you to buy one for me Only."
Commander Cao immediately sneered at Cheng Fengtai: "Go! I'm going to find the Russians for your crap? I'll treat you as a second-hand dealer?" After finishing speaking, he waved Cheng Meixin's hand: "Go and give him yours. Stay for lunch at noon!" The last sentence was still addressed to Cheng Fengtai.
Cheng Meixin's face froze slightly, she turned her face to glance at Cheng Fengtai, agreed with a smile, and went to the bedroom to get the ring. From the study to the bedroom, there was a short flight of stairs, high heels thumped on the carpet, and she was not in the mood to be perfunctory when Miss Cao San greeted her in the corridor. After entering the bedroom, I struggled to find the blue light diamond ring, took off the old one from my hand, put on the big diamond ring again and compared it again and again. It turned out that it was just a small silver flower on my finger. Just put it on, like holding a big star between your fingers, it is dazzling, and you can distinguish between superior and inferior. Tears are about to come out of distress, and you have to blink several times before swallowing them. This was the reward that she had specially given her by Commander Cao when she fought with Commander Cao, and she was reluctant to wear it at ordinary times! But Cheng Meixin is Cheng Meixin after all, and she will never disobey Commander Cao for this kind of thing. When Commander Cao said that she wanted to give it away, she had nothing to say no matter how reluctant she was. Without such self-cultivation and saving trouble, she would not be able to be Madam Cao. I specially found a velvet jewelry box, took off the ring and wiped it clean with a glasses cloth and inserted it in, scolding Cheng Fengtai in my heart, but when I handed the ring to him at the dining table, he was very kind and told Many words. Under Cheng Meixin's gentle gaze, Cheng Fengtai felt chills down his spine. If he hadn't grown up with her and knew his temperament well, he would have been fooled by her attitude.
Going to the commercial house in the afternoon, Shang Xirui really stayed at home, not only Shang Xirui, but Niu Baiwen was also today, pointing and poking at a tall and thin young man standing beside him, the young man wore a light blue long coat, A huqin hangs from the waist, which is half covered by the hem of the clothes. This is Niu Baiwen who finally found the treasure and came to meet him on business. Zhou Xiangyun and other little actors were practicing their kung fu, while still staring at the young man, they heard Shang Xirui asking him: "Oh, it's been fourteen years."
As soon as Cheng Fengtai arrived, Niu Baiwen hurriedly gave up the seat next to Shang Xirui for him. Cheng Fengtai and Niu Baiwen said hello, and sat down next to Shang Xirui without being too polite, with one hand on his lap, drinking the tea from his cup. That young man looked only a few years older than Zhou Xiangyun and the others. He had played the piano for fourteen years, and he had started learning at an indefinitely young age.
Shang Xirui also said: "It seems too young. There is a big difference between studying for fourteen years and playing for fourteen years!" He looked at Niu Baiwen and said with a smile: "I knew when I learned the piano: The flute plays for a hundred days and the flute plays for a thousand days, and the little huqin breaks its waist."
Before Niu Baiwen opened his mouth to speak, the young man first smiled, and said respectfully and calmly: "It is always said that Boss Shang is famous in Kyushu and aspires to the top of the Pear Garden. Many people from majors have sung Danjiao for half their lives, and they are not as good as Boss Shang." It took me three years to change my career and sing. When I saw him today, I realized that Boss Shang is also very young."
When he said this, Niu Baiwen and Cheng Fengtai were slightly surprised, they just looked at Shang Xirui and laughed. Shang Xirui didn't expect the kid to challenge him as soon as he opened his mouth, and immediately offended Er Biaozi, he unbuttoned the two collar buttons of his short shirt, started rolling up his sleeves, and opened his mouth to shout: "Little boy! Take my huqin Bring it! I want to compete with him!"
Niu Baiwen said "Ouch", and didn't know how to stop him, and said with a startled laugh: "Officer Rui! There is no such thing as you!". Looking eagerly at Cheng Fengtai, Cheng Fengtai's brain ached, he pulled Shang Xirui over and whispered in his ear: "Boss Shang, tell me, do you want a piano fighting partner or an opera singing partner. "
Shang Xirui said: "Of course it's an opera!"
Cheng Fengtai said: "Then sing and listen! What are you doing playing the piano with him! If he wins and you lose, what does that mean? Don't get involved in some drama and look like a cockfight, are you tired! Sit down. "
Shang Xirui thought about it, and also felt that he was messing around a bit, solo and accompaniment are actually not the same thing, but he still felt uneasy, and said to Zhou Xiangyun: "Little Zhou! Come and practice with him!" He sat down and sucked the spout of the teapot , raised his eyes and stared at them seriously, he hadn't moved yet, and was sweating again.
Zhou Xiangyun was wearing a light blue exercise suit, blushing, at a loss, she was so shy, she followed his master Shang. When he met the young man's eyes, he blushed even more, and asked Shang Xirui: "Leader, which part are you singing?"
Shang Xirui said: "Whatever, sing quickly."
With the door closed, Shang Xirui has this rough temper, and if he continues, Shang Xirui will curse again. The more anxious Zhou Xiangyun became, the more he couldn't remember, while the other little actors just looked at him and smiled gloatingly, and didn't make any moves. At this time, I heard the young man say: "Let's play "Da Baoguo". Little Erhuang opens the door." As he spoke, he lifted his clothes and slowly untied his huqin from his trouser belt.
When Hu Qin saw the sun, Niu Baiwen looked at Shang Xirui proudly, to see how he would react. Shang Xirui was taken aback, his neck stiffened, there was no other major reaction, but the next Huqin seemed unnecessary, he had a resentful expression on his face. After the two younger students over there had finished singing and playing, Niu Baiwen smiled and said, "How about it, boss Shang, did Boss Ning's eyes never miss it?"
Shang Xirui said embarrassingly: "So this is Jiulang's..." Ning Jiulang sent all the relics left by He Shaoqing to this kid, there must be nothing to pick on about this hand-stringed work. Shang Xirui asked: "Are you from Tianjin?"
The young man said: "I've lived with Boss Ning for two years, occasionally playing with his old man's voice, please give me advice."
Shang Xirui said: "Does Jiulang have anything to say to you?"
The young man said: "Boss Ning told me to follow Boss Shang with peace of mind, saying that I am stubborn and weird, which is easy to offend people. Boss Shang is different from other roles. Only by following Boss Shang can I enjoy this bowl of rice comfortably." While talking, he looked at Shang Xirui's expression. Shang Xirui shook his head when he was praised, his face immediately showed joy, this alone is different from other characters, other characters are very good at putting on airs, they don't show their emotions or anger.
Shang Xirui thought for a while and said: "Okay, you follow me wholeheartedly, you are recommended by Jiulang, I'll take the seven and you three first."
Niu Baiwen is in charge of a theater troupe, he is more sensitive to the economy, he heard the news more than anyone else, forced the young man to bow to Shang Xirui to thank him, and said happily: "You are a good boy! Do you know how much it is? That's it. If you give me 10%, you should wake up from your dreams with laughter! Wow! You have no one to support you, and you will be a rich man in the future! Don't be fooled!"
The young man just nodded to Shang Xirui lightly, without showing any gratitude. Shang Xirui himself is a person who doesn't care about money, he stood up and patted his pants indifferently, and said with a smile: "I sang "War Wancheng" with Lei Shuang and them on October Festival, now I don't care about the huqin, I can concentrate on preparing play."
Niu Baiwen also laughed and said: "Look, in the end I have to work hard with the boss to get things done. At least I've done my job, no credit but hard work, right?" Shang Xirui repeatedly said yes, Niu Baiwen Said: "Then let's agree, leave me five tickets for your "Zhan Wancheng", I will take the children to see it, don't let me go backstage!"
Shang Xirui agreed with all his mouth, thinking that you returned five tickets, what a big deal! At that time, let alone seat tickets, with Bao Boss serving so many people, it would be a blessing to get in the backstage! Send Niu Baiwen out of the gate, take Cheng Fengtai's sleeve and go back to the room to sleep, the young man is still standing in the middle of the yard, Shang Xirui turned around and asked him: "By the way, what's your name?"
The young man said: "Li Qiaosong."
At that time, Shang Xirui never thought that there was anything wrong with this surname, he just thought it was Muzi Li, a common surname, who can be seen everywhere, entered the room and fell on the bed with Cheng Fengtai, Cheng Fengtai got up early today to blackmail, and in the afternoon he also felt sleepy and lay down He closed his eyes and said, "I was going to give you a gift today, but Master Niu has already given you a big gift, so I won't give it."
This was to tease Shang Xirui on purpose, Shang Xirui really knew how to tease him, he tossed and turned on the bed and made a fuss, it didn't work for a while, the whole person lay on Cheng Fengtai's body, and drove down the pile honestly, almost killing Cheng Fengtai's The liver was spat out by Tun, he patted his ass and said: "It's in the pocket of your trousers, you can find it yourself." Shang Xirui hooked Cheng Fengtai's trousers with his foot, took out a jewelry box, opened it, and inside was It's the blue light ring.
Cheng Fengtai propped his head and said with a smile: "How is this compared to the one your fancier gave you?"
No matter how well-informed and well-informed a person is to get this big treasure, he will be amazed. Shang Xirui's happiness doesn't lie in this: "Haha! Isn't this Cheng Meixin's? How did you get it?"
Cheng Fengtai said: "It's a lie."
Shang Xirui was overjoyed: "Is she angry?"
Cheng Fengtai sighed: "Angry, I must be mad!"
Shang Xirui lay down on his back, trying to put the ring on his finger, but the man's knuckles are thicker after all, the ring got stuck after the first joint. He poked his hand in front of Cheng Fengtai, and Cheng Fengtai said: "Find a silver shop tomorrow to make the ring bigger. Just change it to a men's style, this one is only a women's style, anyway you won't be able to tell the style when you wear it on stage, change it to a It’s a men’s style, and you can wear it on a daily basis.”
"Women are women!" Shang Xirui looked at the ring triumphantly: "I want to sing "War Wancheng" with it on! Cheng Meixin is so mad! - What will happen if she knows that the ring is in my hand? Sample?"
Cheng Fengtai laughed and said: "I was so mad at you! Then I chopped off your paw." Then he kissed the back of his hand: "Why do you hate my sister so much? Although my sister is not kind, she is quite good at it. Perfunctory, not the kind of jealous woman. How on earth did you two end up enmity?"
Shang Xirui hesitated and didn't say much, he just said vaguely: "Seeing your brother-in-law give me good things, you're not happy! Talk about me behind my back! Spread rumors!"
Cheng Fengtai thought to himself, have you been rumored less? There are too many lice and it's not ticklish, it's worth hating, he hugged his waist sleepily and smiled: "Oh? My brother-in-law doesn't give you money, give you something? That's making you an official concubine, can my sister Don't you hate me?" Xin Dao is nothing more than gold and silver, what good things can you know: "Boss Shang, look at the ones you compete with, Jiang Mengping, my sister, are all women, if you go on, you You've become a bitch now. The newspapers gossip about you every day, why don't you compete?"
Shang Xirui said seriously: "Nonsense, what I hate the most is fishy intestines, your sister is far behind! She is the one I picked up!"
Cheng Fengtai rubbed his head and yawned, too lazy to answer his silly words.
