The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

After a few days. Google search reading

The deadline agreed on the theater ticket has arrived.

Tianhe Tea Garden.

Bai Gui, Bai Xiuzhu, and Mrs. Bai entered the box upstairs together.

The box is a small compartment, about twenty square meters, separated by rows of wooden boards, with curtains hanging above it.

The movement in the box next to him was difficult to see clearly.

The servant followed and entered.

Within a moment of entering, the bead curtain facing the stage was rolled up.

Bai Gui felt that his field of vision was much wider.

He was sitting at the railing of the box, and on the hand guard were placed wet and dry fruit plates, cigarettes and teacups.

"This orange tastes good."

Bai Gui peeled an orange casually, tasted a few pieces, and nodded.

These wet and dry fruit plates are provided with the box ticket, which is worth little compared to the box ticket.

"You can also eat a few slices."

Bai Gui casually handed the half-drawn orange with the peel still remaining to his neighbor Bai Xiuzhu, and said with a smile.

"I'll have a taste."

Bai Xiuzhu hesitated for a moment, took the green tangerine, and as soon as she ate a small piece, she was immediately sore and uncomfortable, but she still had to maintain her ladylike demeanor and endured her facial expression unchanged.

He could only hold his breath, reach out to the soft flesh of Bai Gui's waist, and prepare to twist it hard.

But she just stretched out her hand.

Bai Gui secretly held it with his big hands, and then let it be frivolous.

Bai Xiuzhu's pink face became hot and she wanted to retract her hand, but her strength was not as strong as Bai Gui's, so she became discouraged after going back and forth.

Mrs. Bai squinted her eyes and saw all this. She held her nerve and pretended that nothing happened.

"It's just a fight between a young couple. The fight is about kissing and scolding, and it's about love."

"I ran over here to stir up some trouble..."

Mrs. Bai was so disgusted by this move that she felt regretful. If she had known she would not come.

At this moment.

The stage troupe was ready and the opera started.

"It's so pitiful to think of those days when we were in prostitutes' houses, welcoming the new and seeing off the old..."

"Su San left Hongdong County and came to the street. I didn't say anything, but I felt so miserable. I respect the gentleman who passed by and listened to me..."

"You are originally the queen of the eunuch family. You have a good character, eat delicacies, wear silk clothes, and have all kinds of satisfactions. I never expected that you would end up in this situation..."

Xiaodan is fully dressed and babbling.

The song was "Yutang Chun".

Bai Gui also put Bai Xiuzhu's little hand back. He just wanted to be angry with Mrs. Bai. There are no unnecessary thoughts. He could understand and agree with Mrs. Bai's coming. It was normal to be worried and scared, but... staring at him like a thief made him feel a little uncomfortable in his heart...

But that's all he had.

Besides, this was just a joke with his fiancée, there was no harm in it.

Being polite all the time will not enhance mutual affection. valley

"You don't listen to plays very much. This Yutangchun is about Su San, a famous prostitute in the Ming Dynasty. Her stage name is Yutangchun. At that time, Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty succeeded to the throne, Liu Jin was in power, and the wise minister Wang Qiong..."

Bai Xiuzhu took back her hand and explained in a low voice.

Present, Mrs. Bai is from Japan and has listened to many plays with the Jin family, but no matter how much she listens, it is difficult to understand them in detail. As for this play, if you don't know the general background and just listen to the babbling part, although it is enough to applaud, it will inevitably lose some interest.

"It's spring in Yutang, Feng Menglong wrote in "Words of Warning to the World", it's called "Spring in Yutang is hard to find a husband."

Bai Gui nodded. He had never heard of the opera, but he had read the story. He thought of Feng Menglong's comments on this matter and smiled: "Feng Menglong said in "Warning Words" that Yu Tangchun met Wang Jinglong, Wang Qiong's son. , Wang Jinglong is a good man, he took Yu Tangchun back to pay homage to his parents, brother and sister-in-law, and also met the Liu family whom he was marrying, and decided on their wives and concubines..."

"In the future, Wang Jinglong will be the imperial censor of the capital. He will have wives and concubines and have children, and his family will be prosperous..."

After saying that, he carefully raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Xiuzhu.

"Um."

Bai Xiuzhu said calmly.

She took a handful of melon seeds from the hand guard at the railing, about ten of them, crushed each one, and started eating casually, as if she didn't hear anything, but she squeezed the melon seeds too hard and there were not many melon seeds. Completely intact.

Bai Gui stopped, did not mention this issue, and continued to listen to the show.

Soon, he was chatting and laughing with Mrs. Bai and Bai Xiuzhu again.

After "Yu Tang Chun" was sung, the next section on the stage was a storytelling, about "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties". It only told a plot, which said "Cheng Yaojin released his former enemy and saw his mother and received the favor, and fulfilled his death oath to Wang Bodang." Die for your friends.”

Bai Gui had already seen this plot before, but the narrator's voice was loud, and the ups and downs in the story were intertwined and very fascinating.

The foundation is very deep!

In the ordinary seats on the first floor of the theater, the audience began to give gifts. Silver dollars, silver taels, pearls, gold leaves, whatever they had, were thrown onto the stage.

This is a reward.

According to the rules of the old days, if the performance is good, there will be rewards, and the audience will throw money on the stage on the spot.

Bai Gui was impressed by what he heard and took advantage of it and threw a few ocean coins.

"The one who performed Yu Tang Chun just now probably didn't have a horn. He sang well, but there weren't many people watching..."

He said smoothly.

As the saying goes, "Praise the corner", "Praise the corner", this corner must be praised. Those who are excellent at singing and singing can naturally stand out, but if they sing well and are considered first-class actors, they are not famous and have no one to praise them. Basically, they may not receive much reward after a performance.

To put it simply, if you want to be successful, you must not only have solid skills, but also have people to support you. Once the wealthy gentry sees and appreciates it, these common people will also follow suit. After going back and forth, the corner was finally achieved.

Whether a person is a good actor or not depends on how many people watch each scene.

"The one just now is not a character, but the one who talks about storytelling is famous in both Yanjing and Tianjin. Look, it's written on the theater ticket. His name is... Fu Ping'an. I heard from several ladies in the Jin family that he talks about "Sui and Tang", "Yongqing Shengping", "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" and "The Legend of Ming Lie" are unique works."

"If you want to listen to his storytelling, I'll ask the servants at home to keep an eye on his performance for you later."

Bai Xiuzhu replied.

"No, I don't like listening to storytelling. I just happened to be able to listen to it for a while."

Bai Gui nodded, but he didn't intend to pay any attention to it.

At this time, whether it was singing or storytelling, it was a low-level job. Although he doesn't despise him, he still won't discuss his identity. It was just a casual chat to get to know this person.

"When you mention Yu Tangchun, do you think that Xiaodan just now is beautiful?"

Bai Xiuzhu asked casually.

"It's not like you don't know this sentence about actors being ruthless. I've read a lot of poetry and books, and I've read Ouyang Xiu's preface to the biographies of actors..."

Bai Gui raised his eyebrows and replied immediately.

He heard a story in his previous life. Ye Yongfang, a famous actor in Tianjin, worked hard to promote a certain actress, but when he died of illness, all he got was a four-yuan memorial gift sent by someone else. This incident shocked Beijing and Tianjin. In both places, all actors who hold roles are disappointed, saying that actors are ruthless, and they all agree that if they want to take roles in the future, they must choose the right person.
