But Yang Xingyuan told Zhu Luansheng's history again, but the text was still wrong. He said there was a reason.Fu Ka Kui asked why?Yang Xingyuan said: "That was the first time, today is the second time." Because he told me that he had a banquet with Zhu Luansheng two months ago, Brother Fu sighed for a while. It turned out that that night, when Zhu Luansheng came back from the rain, she cried with her head in her arms. The shopkeeper in the apartment knew that she didn't borrow money, so she also worried about her.However, he saw that Zhu Luansheng was a young woman in her twenties, with a handsome personality, and he couldn't bear to drive her out of the apartment. In addition, she was a young lady from a wealthy family, so she didn't dare to treat her indecently, so she had to accommodate her. She lived for a few days.One morning, when the weather was fine, when everyone in the apartment had gone out, he walked to the door of Zhu Luansheng's room and said, "Mrs. Zhu, how about this model of yours, you have to think of a way." Come in.Zhu Luansheng said: "Of course I have to find a way, I can't live here forever."

The shopkeeper said: "Let me ask you a question, you still have to take care of your identity all the time, and you can still find a way in a vague way?" Zhu Luansheng's face seemed drunk when he asked this question. The wine was average.Reluctantly showing a solemn look, he calmed himself down.Said: "I don't quite understand what you said. How can you find a way in a vague way?" The shopkeeper squinted at her, twisted his neck, and said, "Come on, you don't understand." Zhu Luansheng looked at the man's hippie salivating face, and he knew it a long time ago, thinking that I can do whatever I want, and I can't do it for you. The few money owed came to beg you, and he said: "You don't need to talk nonsense, I will pay you the money owed to you." The shopkeeper had no choice but to answer her words.Said: "Very good, as long as you can give the money, what else can we talk about. It's been so long, we can't keep waiting, please tell us a date." Zhu Luansheng said: "If I give you a day, I will give you a day. I will give it to you within a week, what do you think?" The shopkeeper predicted that she would have nothing to do in the next few days, so he said, "I will allow you a week. If you don't give it when the date comes, I will talk to you again." Settle the bill." After finishing speaking, he slapped his legs and left.Although Zhu Luansheng said this hard word, in fact she was not sure at all. She closed the door, put a pillow on the folded quilt, and lay down on the bed, thinking slowly, planning in her heart, what to do. Can make a lot of money.In the past, I often heard people say that women are economically independent, but now it seems that this is the truth.She lay on the bed for a while, then sat up again, propping her chin with both hands, facing out of the window, staring blankly at the sky, as if something was written in the sky and figured out a way for her.After looking at the sky for a while, I felt uncomfortable, turned around and went to lie down on the bed again.Climbing up and falling asleep like this, after making a fuss for a long time, suddenly I couldn't stop the tears from flowing out, and the pillow was wet from crying, and a day passed like this.At night, when I was sleeping on the bed, I had to think about it all the time. I kept thinking about it until dawn, but I fell asleep instead.

When I woke up the next day, it was already morning, and I looked at the mirror and combed my hair, only to see that the two eye sockets had fallen into a circle, and the haggardness on my face had stopped a lot.I complained to myself: "I'm not in a daze. If I think about it for a while, the money will come? When it comes to the bottom line, I should go to find the money early, and don't make fun of the shopkeeper when I have no money." Thinking, I really couldn't save face, so I wrote two letters to give him two girlfriends who are a little more intimate. These two people, one is Mrs. Zhao and the other is Young Mistress Qian. They both often go to the theater together and play small cards together. Uehara wrote very simply in the letter, just inviting them to talk, so they all came.Young Mistress Qian came first. Seeing Zhu Luansheng like this, she knew that it was not a good intention to invite her, so she regretted it first, thinking that it was all wrong to wander around outside in the past.For this matter, I had a few quarrels with my family and almost broke away.Now that I understand, it’s too late, don’t mention the money, it’s very inconvenient, and the whole family regards me as a thorn in the side, looking at other people’s eyes everywhere, what can I do, I just have to endure it.I advise you to hold back your breath and go back to Tianjin.As a woman, we can't go if we want to go, and can't do what we want to do. How can we hold on to this breath.After Zhu Luansheng heard this faction, it was all unpopular.It's not easy to refute her words, but also has to tell a reason, so that I can ask her to borrow money.Then he sighed and said, "Oh! I don't know what you said. But each family has its own account, and you can't look at it in the same way. It's hard for an upright official to decide on family affairs. Who are you talking to.” At this point, he paused for a while, then smiled again, and said, “You know my temper, and you just want to save face. Now that the situation is like this, the Zhu family wants to I'll go back, how can I have the face to enter his door?" Then, he smiled at Young Mistress Qian again, and continued: "I want to find a way to settle down by myself now, instead of begging for help. But, but...but I still have to ask someone to do a little help." Young Mistress Qian said: "As long as I can help, I will definitely help. I'm afraid I won't be able to help if I'm weak." Zhu Luansheng said: "It's not a big deal. I just need to raise a sum of two or three hundred yuan, and things will start easily."

Young Mistress Qian said: "A few months ago, I alone could help with this little money, but it is not possible now. I have to raise this money, but I can't get it together. But since you are in trouble, no matter How about it, I will always think of something for you." When she said that, she slowly untied the money bag in her hand, reached out and dug in it for a long time, and took out a five-yuan bill, with a smile on her face, handed it to Zhu Luansheng and said "I couldn't afford this small amount of money. You keep your pocket money for now. After a day or two, I will do some activities at hand, and I will give you some money." Although Zhu Luansheng is poor, she still doesn't care about these few dollars. see it.Then he said to Young Mistress Qian: "I'm just saying this, I don't want it right away. I still have pocket money in my hand, and I don't wait to use it. I'm very grateful for your kindness. When you let your hands move around a bit , give me another way." Seeing that she didn't want it, Young Mistress Qian felt a little embarrassed.It is not good for Zhu Luansheng to accept it, and it is not good to take it back into the pocket, so I had to hold the banknote in my hand and said to Zhu Luansheng: "Do you think it is too little?" Zhu Luansheng said: "My eldest sister, what year is it now?" , Do I still dare to treat five or six dollars as small money? I want to wait until I beg you, and then I beg you. Because I am afraid that if I get it early, I will loose it again. Isn’t it strange to borrow it? ?" Mrs. Qian thought she would not accept it, so she could only say: "That's fine, I'll talk to you again in a day or two." After talking for a few more words, she left.After learning this lesson, Zhu Luansheng knew that it was hopeless to borrow money from others, so she canceled this plan again.

The next day, Mrs. Zhao came and saw that Zhu Luansheng's luggage was out of order. She understood half of it, and asked, "When did you move here? Why don't I know?" Zhu Luansheng said, "Mrs. Seeing my situation, shouldn't I hide a little bit?" Mrs. Zhao nodded and said, "You don't need to say, I understand what you mean. I don't know, so forget it. Now I know, In any case, I have to think of something for you." When she said that, she slowly untied the money bag in her hand, stretched out her hand to take a look inside, and took out a roll of banknotes without counting them, and handed them to Zhu Luansheng said: "I couldn't afford this little money. You temporarily accept the pocket money, and slowly think of a way to save your life for a long time. Otherwise, you can move to my house and everything will be convenient. Some." Zhu Luansheng took a look at the banknotes in his hand, he was afraid that there were fifty or sixty yuan, but unexpectedly, his nose moved and his nose shrugged, tears almost rushed out.But I always had to keep my dignity in mind, tried my best to hold back my tears, and said to Aunt Zhao: "Your kindness is really rare, and I don't need to say thank you. To tell you the truth, I owe this apartment too much." There is no way to get out of the debt. Now that I have these funds, I can go out and think about things freely."

Aunt Zhao said: "What are your plans?" Zhu Luansheng said: "Oh! I don't have any plans, it's all worth what I do." Aunt Zhao said: "You can't have no plans at all!" Zhu Luansheng hesitated After a while, he said: "If you treat me like Mrs. Zhao, you are a confidant. I have nothing to say. But this is a stupid idea. I have been bored for several days. I am always afraid that it will not work. It cannot be said that it is done.” Mrs. Zhao said: "What a stupid idea, I'll listen to you if you tell me." Zhu Luansheng blushed, and suddenly smiled.

Said: "This is a joke. Can't I still sing a few lines? I want to use this ability to set up a team to sing and watch. If I sing, it will be a career, and I will have food in this life." It’s the same, if you really want to do this business, if you want to treat guests to make your outfit, you’d better put some capital first.” Aunt Zhao said: “According to my opinion, this is not something I can’t do. But people will look down on me if I do this business. In the future, relatives and friends will not be in touch. Are you happy? "Zhu Luansheng sneered and said:" Relatives?There are relatives who take care of me, and I will not end up in this general situation.When it comes to friends, old sister, if I don’t flatter you face to face, I can’t pick out one person like you out of a thousand.It is also nine out of ten who do not communicate.Anyway, people looked down on me, so I opened up and didn't care about face, that's all. "Aunt Zhao said:" Can the Zhu family make it public? "Zhu Luansheng said:" We have broken away from the relationship, and we are doing our own things, can he control it? "Aunt Zhao said: "If you say it like this, you must do it. "Zhu Luansheng said:" The cart has reached the wall, so there is nothing to do.Think about it, besides this, is there any good way for me? "Aunt Zhao said: "If you want to enter this business, you need someone to introduce you. Do you have any acquaintances? "Zhu Luansheng said:" That's true. The Wang Tuozi who told me about operas in the past, now in Beijing, he is very familiar with the people in Xiyuanzi, so I can ask him to come out and say anything. "Mrs. Zhao said:" how much does it cost to make a suit? "Zhu Luansheng said: "That's not sure, there are too many, thousands of tens of thousands, and it's worth it.At least, it will cost three or four hundred yuan.I really have no choice but to raise two or three hundred yuan, which is indispensable. "Aunt Zhao said:" I don't dare to do everything now, but I can give you some ideas. Within five days, you listen to my letter. "Seeing her saying this, Zhu Luansheng thanked her again and again. She also declared that no matter how much money she paid, she never borrowed it with her mouth. Even if she borrowed it, she had to write an excuse. Aunt Zhao was humble for a while and thought it was unnecessary.

From this day on, Zhu Luansheng officially planned the way to go to sea, paid off the debts in the apartment, and had some money left, took out two clothes from the pawn shop, and went to find Wang Tuozi.This Wang Tuozi lived outside the Temple of Heaven, in a small house, Zhu Luansheng searched for a long time before he was able to find it.There is a half of a low wall made of random stones, and there is a gap in the wall, which is the gate. Inside the gate is a small yard, with four or five wooden sticks, a dozen rotten ropes, and two pumpkin vines.There is a chicken case under there, with chicken feces all over the floor, and a broken foreign car here, with only one wheel left, lying on the side.There are some broken vats and cans piled up in all directions.There is a slop bucket next to the rickshaw, a large piece of wetland, and the dirty water leaks into a ditch, which flows directly to the door.Next to the door, there is just another small latrine.Under the poisonous sun, there is a strange stench, which has been burrowing into people's brains.In the old days, Zhu Luansheng would feel nauseous when he saw a little bit of dirty water, and he would not even look at such places.This helplessness is to solve life problems, so I have to go in.He could only swallow a sip of water, summoned up his courage, and asked, "Is there anyone here?" At this moment, in the low room above, half of the broken bamboo curtain was raised, and a head stuck out.His hair was shaggy, he had a yellow and black face, and he looked at people with two pockmarked eyes.Zhu Luansheng saw that it was a middle-aged woman standing there with half of her chest open.

She agreed, "Excuse me, is there someone surnamed Wang here?" The woman said, "Yes, where are you?" Isn't it at home?" After saying a word, I heard someone agree to come out from the inside and said: "Hey, this is the young lady of the Zhu family, please sit inside, please sit inside." While talking, a person ran out.He was wearing a pair of blue cloth shorts, his feet were bare, and he was stepping on shoes.The spine was exposed on it, and a gray-black plush handkerchief was draped over it. It was Wang Tuozi.Seeing Zhu Luansheng standing by the wall, he hurriedly said: "This is unexpected, how come you have the time to come here. The room is very dirty, what should I do?" Seeing this, Zhu Luansheng didn't need him to give way to the room , and told him his current address, saying that there is something urgent to discuss, please go there today.Wang Tuozi said: "Yes, yes! Let's go today. Please go to the house and rest for a while." Zhu Luansheng said: "I have something else to do, no need, let's talk about it later." After finishing speaking, he left.Wang Tuozi thought that Zhu Luansheng was still as rich as before, and he introduced him to talk about dramas, so he found Zhu Luansheng's apartment that day.Zhu Luansheng was also afraid that he couldn't believe it easily, and she would end up going to sing an opera, so she separated herself from the family and told Wang Tuozi one by one about the difficulties in life.Then he said, based on his ability to sing a few lines, he planned to go to sea, and asked Wang Tuozi to find a place so that he could perform.Wang Tuozi never expected Zhu Luansheng to make such a move, he couldn't find a suitable answer for a while, he hesitated for a while, and then said: "I really want to sing, but I don't have to worry about having no place to show off.

But how much money you can get, maybe.With the brand name of the young mistress of your Zhu family, you can always call it a few percent. " Zhu Luansheng said: That's not acceptable.I have broken away from the Zhu family. If the name of the Zhu family is still used, their family will not agree to me.I want to introduce this, only anonymous people can do it. "Wang Tuozi smiled and said: "That's difficult, let alone you, how many people have studied opera for five or six years, and they can't live and eat on stage. It's not sure yet, it's up to you..."

When Wang Tuozi said this, he paused.Zhu Luansheng said: "I'm not surnamed Zhu, so can't I sing opera?" Wang Tuozi said: "It is possible, but everything pays attention to a brand name, and the same is true for singing. As long as the brand name is famous, don't mention it. Some people really say that they love to buy, but if they don’t have a brand name, even if the goods are very good, they won’t be able to attract people. When you first came to power, it’s like selling cigarettes. Create a brand, the price is cheap, and the goods are better. If you can't sell it, you have to try your luck." Zhu Luansheng was overjoyed when he heard Wang Tuozi's words, and then disappeared.Asked: "What do you think should be done?" Wang Tuozi said: "Now I can't make a decision. Let me find a way for you first. If I can find it, I will write back." Zhu Luansheng had no idea at this time, so he had to agree. with. Two days later, Wang Tuozi was suddenly very happy, and when he came, he said to Zhu Luansheng, "This is really your good luck, maybe you can get rich like this. Now the Miao Stage in Changxin Store, send people to Beijing to invite actors, I talked about it several times, but nothing was settled. I met him yesterday and said that there is a female fancier like you, and I would like to make a guest appearance for a few days. I asked him if he is welcome? He is also in Qiqi, and he knows your reputation very well. It is great if you are willing to go. As long as you are willing, I will bring him back later." Zhu Luansheng said: "How do you say I am a fancier?" Wang Tuozi said: "That's okay, let's talk outside It's a cameo, so that people can think highly of us, but we actually agreed with the organizers over there that we should take the part." Zhu Luansheng said: "That makes sense. But from your tone, I still use my real name on stage, this I don't dare." Wang Tuozi said: "Changxindian is a small place. People in Beijing will go there if they have nothing to do. I'm afraid no one will know if you have sung for three or five years. If you want to sing in Beijing If you don’t go to the flyover, if you want to form another team, try to move the drama back, let alone the role. If you want to go to Beijing, the eldest son will be born in the dwarf team, which must be your big axis. This is a face. In the future If you become popular, go to Baoding, go to Zhangjiakou, where you are not allowed to go." Hearing what Wang Tuozi said, Zhu Luansheng made sense, so he asked how much money he could get a month?Wang Tuozi said: "I won't go without you. I'll talk to him about it. It's about one or two hundred yuan, and there will always be some money." In the past, Zhu Luansheng regarded this money very ordinary.Now let’s say one or two hundred yuan a month, even ten or twenty yuan, is also good.At that time, he agreed to Wang Tuozi's method.Wang Tuozi asked Zhu Luansheng again if he had any clothes?It is too late to do everything in a hurry, so the only way is to buy ready-made ones. If you can scrape together two hundred yuan, you can buy some 60 to 70 percent new ones.Because Aunt Zhao's wife had agreed to raise a sum of money with her, Zhu Luansheng would always have one or two hundred yuan.He said: "Then I have already thought of a way, and there will be no delay." Seeing what she said, Wang Tuozi didn't need to ask, and let her do it. Two days later, Wang Tuozi got in touch with her with some ideas, but the money promised by Mrs. Zhao has never been delivered.Zhu Luansheng couldn't wait any longer, so she went to Zhao's house to meet Aunt Zhao in person.Unfortunately, Aunt Zhao fell ill again.Zhu Luansheng went all the way to Aunt Zhao's room on the pretext of asking about her illness, and sat in front of her bed to talk to her.First, I just talked about some gossip, and then there was no one in the room. Aunt Zhao held Zhu Luansheng's hand and asked softly: "How is your work going now? Is it almost successful?" Zhu Luansheng said: " The matter is about to be finished." Speaking of this, his eyebrows frowned, and he smiled bitterly.Aunt Zhao tapped her head on the pillow twice, and if she realized something, she still held Zhu Luansheng's hand, shook it twice, and said, "I'm sorry for you, what I said, because it hurt the whole world. Illness, put it on hold. Are you waiting to ask for the money?" Zhu Luansheng was asking this question in his heart, so he nodded and said, "To tell you the truth, I didn't know you were sick, it was Came for this. Now..." Mrs. Zhao said: "My money is not at hand, and I can't get it myself, so what should I do?If there is a way, I can think of it, but I really don't want to do it. "Zhu Luansheng smiled and said: "It's really difficult for you, so forget it, is it a small favor for you to help me? "Aunt Zhao said:" It's not a big embarrassment.The old woman who combed my hair has a few hundred yuan on hand, and it is okay to ask her to borrow two dollars for ten days and a half months.But I can't speak to her. "Zhu Luansheng said:" That's natural, how can I ask you to borrow money from her.She won't believe it even if she tells it!Let's do it this way, you can honestly say that I borrowed it, and please be a guarantor.What do you think. "Aunt Zhao said:" By the way, I think so too.In the future when my illness is cured, I will withdraw the money from the bank and pay her back for you. Isn't that the solution? "While Aunt Zhao said that, she asked someone to call the old mother who combed her hair, Yuan Ma. Aunt Zhao told her: "I promised to transfer two hundred yuan to this Young Mistress Zhu, but now I can't get up, I want to break my promise." up.Do you have money?If you can get it out, I will give you five cents of the interest, and I will guarantee it. There is nothing wrong with it. "Yuan Ma smiled and said: "Where do I have this money. "Aunt Zhao hummed on the pillow and said," I'm not joking with you, it's true. "Yuan Ma said:" Yes, but there is, but it is not at hand, so I have to get it. "Aunt Zhao said:" That doesn't matter, you can pick it up today, or this evening, or tomorrow morning, and just send it to Mrs. Zhu's apartment. "Zhu Luansheng was very grateful to see her for being so thoughtful. After a few polite words with her, she said goodbye and went back to the apartment. On the next day, Mama Yuan brought 200 yuan and sent it to Zhu Luansheng's apartment. Her original intention, Thought that although Zhu Luansheng borrowed money, the empty sign must still be there. Now that the luggage is very simple, I feel a little regretful. Fortunately, the money is guaranteed by Aunt Zhao. I thought that if there is something unstable, I can go with Aunt Zhao. If you want money, then I am not afraid of her. Because of this second thought, I took out the money. But I said to Zhu Luansheng: "Mrs. Zhu, if you don't need it, please return it to me as soon as possible. This money is borrowed. . "Zhu Luansheng said:" That's right, after twenty days, you can come here to get the money. "Zhu Luansheng said this casually. She thought in her heart, within twenty days, will Aunt Zhao pay it off for her? Seeing that she said it so naturally, Mama Yuan believed it. Zhu Luansheng got the money and kept 20 yuan for pocket money, and handed over the rest to Wang Tuozi for the outfit. It just so happened that the manager of Miao Stage over there also made an agreement with Wang Tuozi to meet Zhu Luansheng along the way.The man was wearing a sapphire blue linen gown, a jade bracelet, and a carved wool fan. He was a person from twenty years ago. Judging by his appearance, he is only in his fifties, with a horse face, but he is chubby, and when he smiles, his mouth is full of numb teeth.Although there are no braids on the head, the front half of the head is shaved and the second half of the hair is grown, which is still the duck-ass style popular in the early years of restoration.Zhu Luansheng thought about it, with his appearance, can he spend tens of thousands of capital to open a theater?At that time, Wang Tuozi was also afraid that Zhu Luansheng would look down on him, so he would blow up with her when he came.It is said that this Mr. Zhao Desan was also doing something in the political circle, because his house was in Changxindian, so he built a garden there.Although Zhu Luansheng couldn't quite believe it, seeing Zhao Desan's serious and serious demeanor, and not being slick, he started negotiating with him.After all, it was agreed to be five yuan a play.Sing it out, count it out.Calculated according to a month, the day and night performances cost 300 yuan a month.Even if you play day or night, you still have 150 yuan a month.Zhu Luansheng did the math, and besides the expenses, he could always save some money, and also avoid being stranded in Beijing.I made up my mind and agreed.Because they didn't make a monthly payment, Zhao Desan only left 30 yuan to Zhu Luansheng as a fixed payment, and made an appointment to go to Changxindian two days later.That Wang Tuozi took over Zhu Luansheng's scene by himself, let him play the huqin, and recommended him to make his brother Kuaishou Zhang the drum master, and it was Wang Tuozi who found it for him, so he recommended his nephew Wang Defa to Zhu Luansheng, Zhu Luansheng Originally, he didn't know that the world was difficult, and he was even more ignorant of the rules of Liyuan.So what can Wang Tuozi say?The outfit he asked Wang Tuozi to buy was also reimbursed by him alone, and he didn't know the price.It cost one hundred and sixty seventy yuan.I bought more than 20 pieces of clothes, which is not too small.But among these clothes, there are only two or three pieces that are 60-70% new, and the rest are very old.There are two ancient dresses made of water-red silk, and there are two large black marks on the back, probably caused by hair.Zhu Luansheng frowned, holding those few outfits in his hand, turned them over to look at them, and then turned them over to look again, and said, "Can you wear this look? First you know this look, it's better to make two less, and you can get a point." It's very new." Wang Tuozi laughed and said, "You're still playing tickets at home, you can spend a hundred or ten yuan to make a kind of outfit, but you don't care, how can you compare it like that now." Zhu Luansheng said: "Darby is impossible to compete with. You have to wear it well." Wang Tuozi said, "It's okay. In that small town, there are clothes like this. If you show them to him, he will see them very well." Zhu Luansheng Seeing that the wood is a boat, the sea is helpless, so it has to be done.After discussing with Wang Tuozi for a while, they decided on three sex scenes based on their outfits.It was also Wang Tuozi's idea, saying that now that he is playing "The Drunken Concubine", there is no need for Fengguanxiapei, and instead of wearing ancient costumes.There are two ancient costumes here, they are not bad, let the people there have a fresh look, let's just do it on the first day, Zhu Luansheng also felt that there was a good reason, and decided to perform on the first day. On the next day, he and Wang Tuozi came to Changxindian.Although this kind of place is very close to Beijing and not a commercial port, in Zhu Luansheng's eyes, it is naturally very simple, but it is a place to live, and it is also an old inn.The room is very small, and more than half of the inside is an earthen kang, covered with a reed mat, surrounded by lace.The kang is next to the window, and the window is no higher than a person's height. It was pasted with some newspapers, and the paper turned yellow.There was not a single glass there, and the room was gloomy.A small table was placed against the wall, the color of which could no longer be seen, and there were many knife wounds and traces of cigarette burns on it.Besides that there is nothing at all.Zhu Luansheng sniffed it carefully, and felt that there was an indescribable smell in the room.Take a look at the reed mat again, it is worse than the floor mats of people in Beijing, and it is extremely dirty.Although she had been wronged for several months in the apartment, the apartment was still in the middle class. First, the paper is white in the room.Looking at this place now, it is a place I have never seen or thought of in my life, and I have long felt uncomfortable.Wang Tuozi and the others also lived in the front room, attracting many messy people to talk there.After a while, Zhao Desan, the manager of Miao Stage, also came.It is said that Boss Zhu will be on stage in the future, and there will always be people supporting the play, and a few people have to be introduced first.There is Hu Jinbao who sings the clown. She has been here for many years, and she is also a few years old.When meeting Boss Zhu, he should be extra polite.Those people in the background all call her aunt.When he said this, he was clearly telling Zhu Luansheng not to be a sister.He made an appointment to take her to the backstage tomorrow to have a look first, and then went to Wang Tuozi's room in front.Zhu Luansheng thought about it, I have been rich and famous for half of my life, and today I am in such a situation, and I still have to call my aunt to curry favor with some irrelevant people, it is not worth it. Listening to the talking and laughing in the front room, sitting alone in the dark room, I felt so lonely, so on the first night in this inn, I cried for a while in front of the pale yellow kerosene lamp. stay. In the afternoon of the next day, Zhao De and the third Wang Tuozi took her to the backstage of the Miao Stage.She looked at the theater from the outside, and it was all made of wooden boards. It looked a little bad, so she went to the back and pushed open a wooden door. Inside was a small courtyard. There is a lot of noise, and the inside is the backstage.Zhu Luansheng had voted for one play. The backstage is not clean, and she knows it.The backstage was even worse. Melon skins, peach cores, and snot and thick phlegm were all over the floor. The big basin of washing water shared by everyone was placed in the middle, and the ground was drenched.Nothing else, but a smell of sweat coming from somewhere, very unpleasant.For this reason, the smelly flies are flying in groups among the people.When those backstage people saw a new pillar coming, they couldn't help but cast their eyes on Zhu Luansheng alone.First, Wang Tuozi introduced her to meet the backstage manager, and then introduced Hu Jinbao who sang the clown, Du Yuanhong who sang Zhesheng, and Liu Bixian who sang Xiaosheng, to Zhu Luansheng in turn.When Zhu Luansheng saw those people, they all had three-pointed images, so he didn't want to at first. That clown Hu Jinbao, about forty years old, wore a small bun, wore a double-breasted water red coat, and held a big banana fan. , with his shoes on and his chest upright, he walked around with every move. When Zhu Luansheng came to this kind of place, he was alone and had no choice but to say a few perfunctory words to everyone.It's fine for others, but Hu Jinbao has a smirk on his face, which is extremely annoying.I didn't want to stay in the background for a long time, so I left immediately. When those people saw that she left as soon as she came, with a bad look on her face, everyone laughed and said, this person probably has good skills, just look at how big she is putting on airs.Hu Jinbao said: "Don't be too busy, let's see you on stage tomorrow." This was also on everyone's mind, how about watching her play tomorrow.However, for the sake of making money, Zhao Desan and Zhu Luansheng had been advocating for a while. Although her history was not mentioned on the poster, it had been widely circulated outside that the person surnamed Zhu was a young lady who made a TV station. The actor's Dekou is like a general, with a very strong background, people who listen to it don't care whether they listen to the opera or not, so they are willing to come and see what this person is like.So on the day Zhu Luansheng took the stage, it sold out to a full house.As for her ability, in her own opinion, she thought it was very good, and no one would say no to it.In fact, playing tickets at that time was spending money outside, and it didn't matter if it wasn't good.Moreover, they are all fanciers, and their talents can't be as neat as those of experts. Compared with them, they can always be dealt with.Now that I'm really on stage, I can't play it in front of my face.When Zhu Luansheng thought about it, he didn't dare to think that he was sure.So before going to the backstage to put on makeup, I found Hu Jinbao and Liu Bixian who were supporting the show.To a pair of drama, Hu Jinbao said: "No need, right? Can a drama like this be wrong?" Zhu Luansheng was also careless, expecting Gao Peilishi's words to be frank, and he couldn't make too many mistakes, so it's okay to be wrong up.When it came out, she yelled "Show me" in the door curtain.Those who came to see her had already made a loud noise, calling for a door curtain color.As soon as the door curtain was lifted and Concubine Yang came out, everyone saw that she was not the usual costume, but a water-red ancient costume with a high bun, and thought in her heart that she might be a very fashionable ancient Tsing Yi flower shirt, so It's not surprising to wear this kind of clothes.Later, Zhu Luansheng sang a long section, but it didn't seem to be beneficial. She was wearing ancient costumes for the first time, and her figure couldn't match, so there were discussions under the stage.Luckily, her appearance is still pretty. People watching the theater, for this reason, forgive her for not shouting.Hu Jinbao, who was acting in the role, saw that she was nothing more than that, but relied on her status as a clown to sneer at her on stage.Using the title of the play, she said to Zhu Luansheng: "Let's play the empress: the golden carp saw the empress wearing a beautiful new ancient costume, and went to see the empress." The three words "new ancient costume" are just ridiculing that the outfit is old.Later, when Gao Lishi had a drink, Concubine Yang asked what the same night wine was called.She also said: "In the years of improvement, this wine is made with a new method. The previous rules have been abolished, and this is called co-selling wine." Some people in the audience understood Hu Jinbao's intentions and knew that she was sarcastic. Zhu Luansheng said that this guy is really bad. Zhu Luansheng heard what the people on the stage said.She was really ashamed and angry about this matter, although she couldn't cry, her neck turned purple.She barely made it through the play, heartbroken.Hastily unloaded, went back to the inn, climbed onto the Kang, held his head in both hands, fell on the pillow, and cried bitterly.
