I Use Idle Books To Become Saint

Chapter 238: The Good Show Begins

Xue Liangcai came out of the Zhengshitang angrily, with a very ugly expression on his face.

Because he was optimistic about the land where he built his house, the City Lord's Mansion would not sell it.

In the end, he raised the price to his own limit, which was twice the price of the surrounding plots. The reply from the City Lord's Mansion was still not for sale!

After further questioning, it turned out that the city lord personally circled the land and wanted to build a theater.

Just kidding, he Xue Liangcai is a well-informed master at any rate, he is seventy-two years old today, he has never heard of or seen anything, what is a theater?

Obviously, it was just an excuse used by Zhengshitang to perfunctory own.

such a pity.

His Xue family has been in business for generations, so he naturally has a keen judgment on the layout of the city. In his opinion, if Dongcang City is to prosper in the future, that piece of land must be a place of wealth and honor.

Therefore, Xue Liangcai planned to use this place as the foundation of his Xue family, but unexpectedly, he was rejected again and again.

...

Back in the rented courtyard, the three and a half children who were running and frolicking in the courtyard saw Xue Liangcai, stopped quickly, and said respectfully, "I've met the eldest father."

Seeing his three grandchildren, Xue Liangcai's face softened a little.

Although his Xue family is not a rich and famous family, it can be regarded as a noble family in a small town in Lanzhou, with considerable wealth. In his generation, he and his elder brother came out, both of whom were educated, and now they are all teachers territory.

But I don't know if it's because the two brothers have overdrawn the talents of their offspring. He has two sons, and his elder brother has three sons, none of whom are qualified to read through Talent.

They pinned their hopes on the next generation, but what disappointed them was that in the generation of their grandchildren, none of the five grandsons has a full-read Talent, and three granddaughters have a full-read Talent, but in their opinion, Talent is limited, and Confucian scholars who have become poetic are probably the ultimate.

Until a few months ago, several sons and nephews of own set foot on Martial Dao by reading the book of Marquis Wu. After a period of waiting and watching, Xue Liang finally decided to separate from his elder brother Xue Lianghua!

Like the choice of many families, Xue Lianghua stayed in the ancestral land and continued to teach the three granddaughters who had mastered Talent, while Xue Liangcai took his son and nephew who had comprehended Martial Dao, and even his grandson who did not master Talent, to Dongcang.

Leaving his hometown all the way, traveling thousands of miles, and arriving at Dongcang City, he could only live in this rudimentary courtyard house. After finally choosing a place to start his family, but being rejected, Xue Liangcai was naturally depressed.

It's just that when I saw three boys with thick heads and thick brains, my heart softened a little.

If it wasn't for them, he would still be a master anyway, so why bother to suffer from this man's leaving his hometown.

It's all for the children.

Xue Liangcai reached out and touched the head of the youngest boy among them, and said, "Ner, where are your father and uncles?"

This is the son of his youngest son, named Xue Na, who is most loved by Xue Liangcai. Xue Na respectfully said: "Back to Eldest Father, Father and some uncles have gone to apply for the city guard camp. The two elder brothers are still doing missions outside and have not returned home."

Only then Xue Liangcai nodded: "The martial arts hall will start in two days, and the elder has already registered you all. Then you should practice martial arts with your heart, and don't be playful."

The three little fellows bowed together and said: "I would like to follow the teachings of the great father."

After saluting, Xue Na stuck out his tongue again, and said, "Father, there's nothing interesting about this place, and I miss my second sister and the others."

Xue Liangcai smiled lightly. The second sister Xue Na mentioned was the daughter of his eldest son, and also the granddaughter who stayed in the ancestral land to study. This little granddaughter is skillful, and is used to making desserts and delicacies. Xue Ne said that he was thinking of his second sister, but in fact he was greedy.

At this moment, a policeman from the Government Affairs Hall walked into the compound. Seeing that Xue Liangcai was chatting with several young grandchildren, he quickly cupped his hands: "I've seen Master Xue."

Xue Liang returned the salute: "Is there something wrong with the virtuous servant?"

The other party put a piece of paper on the ground and said: "The city lord's mansion will have a play of "The Son-In-Law" at noon today. Our piece has been selected as the first batch to watch. Master Xue can go there with his family."

Xue Liangcai took the paper in doubt, and asked puzzledly, "Opening the play? What does this mean? What is "The Female Consort"? This son-in-law also has a woman?"

The messenger shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know, this word is passed down from above, let me explain it later. I have to go to the next one, so I will leave."

After speaking, the messenger turned and left.

Xue Liangcai looked down at the piece of paper, it looked a bit like a draft newspaper, with a few large characters prominently written on it——

"Create the world! Marquis Wu will open up the drama style again!"

"Between a square inch, it's the size of heaven and earth!"

"When you sigh, feel the length of time!"

"The premiere of "The Female Consort", may I ask why the dignified son-in-law is a daughter!"

"Please take a look!"

Xue Liangcai felt shocked. He had never seen such a word before.

After waiting for a long time, he saw the address at the bottom, which was actually the piece of land he was looking for.

"A square inch represents the world, sighing the years. It's so bold."

"Is this the reason why the old man was unable to apply for that piece of land?"

"I want to see what Marquis Wu is doing with that piece of land!"

...

Looking at the hurriedly completed theater in front of him, Chen Luo nodded slightly.

Luo Hongnu deserves to be a musical genius, he just made a few random remarks, Luo Hongnu not only quickly found suitable personnel among the people of Dongcang City, but also rehearsed the entire stage performance.

With the approval of Chen Luo, it is ready to perform officially.

On the contrary, the theater was short of time and couldn't make it so cumbersome. Basically, it built a hall, set up a big stage, and then set up some audience seats in a ladder shape. It's a bit similar to the lecture theater in the previous life.

When watching a play, there must always be a sense of atmosphere.

In the beginning, Chen Luo wanted to make it open like a big country stage. Anyway, his purpose was not to collect tickets, but he found that it was difficult for the audience to calm down. Cleared up.

Besides, since it has been made, it should be more formal, as a feature of Dongcang City. Other forms can be supplemented later.

So he gave Master Qin a special order to build the theater as soon as possible at any cost. From the current point of view, although it is far from what he imagined, there is still a prototype that can be played. As for the details, it will be supplemented slowly in the future.

Looking at the time, there are still two hours until the official opening. Chen Luo walked out of the "theater", intending to see Luo Hongnu's preparations.

...

At this moment, the news of "The Female Consort" has already spread in Dongcang City.

"Dage, tell me, can this son-in-law still be a woman?"

"Why not? There are women going to the brothels? Let me tell you, this woman... Uuuuuuu, why are you covering my mouth, third child!"

"A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory! Don't talk about those things that can't be put on the table. This is the article of the city lord, our Marquis Wu, how can we write those things!"

"Everyone, stop arguing, I heard that this is still singing!"

"Sing a song? The one in the hook bar?"

"Bah, bah, if you say that again, I'll kill you. Didn't you see that it was Miss Luo who sang in person?"

"Miss Luo! That's a heavenly figure. I heard that Miss Luo is in Kyoichi. Can she sing for those of us who are suffering?"

"Didn't you read the notice? In the future, if you have contribution points, you can go in and listen, no matter who you are. It's just that you have to take turns now!"

"Asshole, the ones we draw are three days later, and the sixth area in the east of the city is the first batch!"

"Hey, just wait..."

...

"Is this "The Female Consort" a new composition by Wan Amber?"

"It's just a piece of music, why bother to mobilize people like this!"

"Yes, yes, is it to make Miss Luo famous?"

"Miss Luo has long been famous all over the world with her lovesickness, so why bother?"

"Everyone, I heard that this song is not sung by one person alone, but by many people. I am afraid it is not the kind of song we are familiar with!"

"That's right. Look at the announcement. It's also mentioned above that it's Wuhou's newly opened civil society."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I can go to watch it tomorrow, and it will be clear at a glance."

"Hey, there are still sixteen hours and three quarters before viewing tomorrow!"

...

"Li's Little Sister, you also go there...to what courtyard...to listen to the music?"

"It's a theater. Also, the police said that it's for going to a theater, not listening to music."

"Yeah, I'm surprised. Aren't all the old men listening to the music? Why did someone tell you that all of us female relatives should go?"

"It doesn't matter, my man participated in the construction of that theater, saying that men and women sit separately in it, and nothing will happen. Otherwise, my man is so narrow-minded, he would take me with him when he went to the north, and he was willing to let me go with him." What kind of show is a group of old men sitting together to watch!"

"I don't care about any drama, as long as it is written by the Lord City Lord, I will go."

"Second sisters, are you also going to the theater? Why don't you go together?"

"It's just right, come, come, let's go together."

...

In the forty-sixth year of Zhenghe in the Daxuan calendar, winter.

On the eighth day of November, at noon.

Dongcang City.

People from all directions poured into a weird building, holding number plates in their hands, and found the corresponding seats to sit down.

They looked at the front strangely, and there was a huge curtain blocking their sight, as if dividing the entire hall into two parts, the front and the back.

It didn't take long for the hall to be filled with people, but everyone was instructed not to speak loudly when they entered the arena, so the buzzing of whispers continued.

At this moment, Chen Luo walked into the theater with Yun Siyao, and the scene fell silent.

Only the old Dongcang was lucky enough to have seen Yun Siyao, and now these newcomers to Dongcang suddenly saw Yun Siyao, and their hearts moved.

I thought that Miss Luo was already a figure in the sky, but I didn't expect that there was such a fairy beside the city lord.

As expected of the city lord!

"Ahem!" Yun Siyao felt the unnatural gaze on her body, coughed twice, and Chen Luo hurriedly led Yun Siyao to the front row.

Chen Luo nodded to everyone, and said, "The construction of Dongcang City has worked hard for everyone."

"Today, I am Chen Luo, and I invite you all to watch the show!"

"start!"

After Chen Luo's words fell, the curtain that covered the stage slowly opened.

On the stage, dressed in an embroidery building, a beautiful figure turned its back to the crowd.

The musicians on both sides of the stage played music, and the figure slowly turned around, it was Luo Hongnu.

Her eyes seemed to be looking into the distance, stepping on the beat of the music, walked to the front of the stage, and sang softly——

"The spring breeze brings warmth to Xiangyang, and sitting alone by the west window is desolate..."

The first scene, "Embroidered House".

"The Female Consort", the show begins!
