On the Grass in the Lili Garden [Peking Opera]

The third uncle didn't say anything irrelevant such as "people move living trees, move dead" or "you are still young and don't worry about not having a job". The job is gone, Lin Weiran's father's bad temper is well-known in the whole family.

At first, Lin Weiran was thinking about whether there would be a farewell performance, but it turned out that the head of the group was about to take up the post of secretary of the chemical fertilizer factory in a neighboring county. Many colleagues in the group had also found new jobs, so they gradually recovered under Lin Weiran's hard training. There is no chance to show the sound of the chamber.

Lin Weiran entered the children's class of the county theater troupe at the age of five, one year younger than most of the classmates in the class.After practicing the basic skills for two years, he got his wish and put on a flowing beard to learn from the old students.

Because of his willingness to endure hardships and his talent, he was once a little celebrity in the children's class. He participated in many report performances organized by the province, won several awards, and was also featured in the internal publications of the Provincial Department of Culture.

When he was 11 years old, a secondary school for drama from other places came to enroll students, and all the students who took the exam were students who were one year older than him, that is, two years older, because the age required for admission to the drama school was 13 years old.As a top student, the instructor asked him to take the exam as an opportunity to exercise.

Lin Weiran's professional score was very high, and the admissions teacher ticked off his name on the spot.In the end, after checking his information, he realized that the child was only 11 years old and was not eligible for admission.

Lin Weiran didn't take it as a big deal that he couldn't be admitted. He came here to study. After the exam, he should still practice his skills and hang his voice.Unexpectedly, more than ten days later, the admissions teacher came again.

It turned out that the teacher went back to report to the director of the drama school, and felt that this child was a good talent, and he was afraid that he would be admitted to other schools next year, so he made a special recruitment.

Originally, the special move was something everyone envied, but Lin Weiran seemed to be a blessing and a curse.The enrollment requirement of the drama school technical secondary school is 13 years old, and Lin Weiran was only in his early 11 years old at that time, and his voice had not yet started to change.

After entering the drama school, after a professional assessment, the teacher thought that the child had an excellent voice and would be a good young student after the voice change, so he suggested that he change his career as a niche student.

In fact, regardless of whether his voice has changed or not, the teacher at the theater school saw that his voice was clearer and longer, and his facial features were particularly outstanding, so he was asked to change his career.But he always thought it was because he hadn't started to change his voice into a shrill voice.

Lin Weiran was unwilling to ask him to change to a junior student.

At the beginning, he fell in love with Peking Opera because he thought that Dai's beard was very elegant, so he enrolled in the children's class to learn from the old students. He couldn't figure out what was so good about the young students. Heroic.Besides, since he was an old student in elementary school, wouldn't it be too late to change his career now?

But the teacher said on the first day that he was born with the voice of a niche student, on the second day he said that there was a big gap in talent in the niche industry, and on the third day he told him about Jiang Miaoxiang and Ye Shenglan. Lin Weiran did ideological work for three days.

Seeing that the teacher was eloquent and ready to tell him how Shang Xiaoyun changed from Wusheng to Huadan, and how Xun Huisheng changed from Bangzi to Peking Opera, Lin Weiran finally obeyed the arrangement.

Lin Weiran has a single-minded mind. After accepting the fact that he is a primary school student, he no longer struggles with the fact that he was born as an old student in singing.

In the past two years, he studied well in the opera school, but his voice change came a bit late. He didn't start to change until he was almost 15 years old, and he didn't pass until he graduated at 16 years old.

Boys lose their voice during the period of voice change, which is very common in drama schools. The instructor told him not to rush to raise his voice, and at the same time arranged him to learn more martial arts.

At that time, Lin Weiran practiced kung fu with the martial arts class of the Peking Opera Department every day.If he hadn't had to adjust his voice every morning with master Huqin, he would almost have thought that he was a martial arts student at that time.

During the graduation report performance, Lin Weiran chose Wu Xiaosheng's play "Eight Sledgehammers" and Wen Xiaosheng's play "Liu Yin Ji".It's not that he has confidence in his voice, after all, he is a student, so he can't stop singing.

Although his singing skills are weak, his Lu Wenlong martial arts is very exciting, and he successfully won many difficult moves, and he has a good grasp of Liang Shanbo's character, and the performance is good.

A foreign theater troupe approached their principal on the spot and offered to recruit Lin Weiran as a martial artist.

The leader of the theater troupe said that Lin Weiran's martial arts background was almost the same as that of the martial arts class, and that he must have a bright future in his career as a martial arts student, but they didn't have the nerve to say that the kid's voice is a bit weak, so let's change to a martial arts student.

But Lin Weiran's instructor firmly disagreed, saying that the student who turned his voice upside down must be a good young student.

Lin Weiran himself didn't want to go to that theater troupe, it wasn't a matter of Wu Sheng's niche business, he wasn't sure if he could still have a voice in the future, and he didn't object if he really wanted to change to Wu Sheng.

The reason for his reluctance was that his eldest sister was married, his second brother joined the army and was in another province, and his parents had no one to take care of him.Although the two elders are still in good health, after all, as they get older, various chronic diseases also come, and they cannot live without a child.If he went to that theater company, he would not be able to return home for two or three days on the way.

He is the "threshold monkey" in his hometown. He likes to stay not far from home, and he doesn't want to leave his hometown without seeing his relatives.After thinking about it, Lin Weiran decided to go back to the county theater troupe, which was an hour's drive away from home.

At that time, he was admitted to the drama school, and the leader of the county troupe said that he was welcome to come back after graduation.As a result, he changed his niche, and the regiment leader was even happier.

Their troupe didn't have a single student before, so the group asked Lin Weiran to take the lead in arranging a few niche dramas. The audience responded well, mainly because the handsome Lu Bu and Lu Wenlong attracted many young women into the crowd of fans. There are always [-]% old men and [-]% old ladies sitting.

Do you regret it?Lin Weiran looked at the empty bowl on the table covered with tender yellow chicken oil.

No regrets.He doesn't regret going back to his hometown, he doesn't regret being closer to his parents, and being closer to his third uncle and third aunt.But filial piety can't be eaten, he has to go out to find something to do now.But what can he do if he is looking for a job?

He has been studying drama professionally since he was in kindergarten. Although he also takes cultural courses, he basically just popularizes some common sense in life. He has not learned much about mathematics, physics and chemistry, let alone English is required for job hunting now.Where does he know foreign languages, he can also read 26 letters, with a good belly.

Then stay at home and farm?Lin Weiran had already foreseen his father's rage: I told you to stop singing in operas!After so many years of delay now, isn't it back again!What are you fussing about!

"I've read two sheets of flower paper, and I'm writing a few lines with a brush in my hand. One is to worship General Ji Ling, and the other is to worship Liu Guanzhang." Yuanmen shoots a halberd, Xipi Erliu, no single-skin drum and no Jinghu, Lin Weiran said. Cheng Yun began to sing in the room.

Recently, he felt that the period of his voice change was about to pass, so he stepped up the training of his small voice.But isn't this a blessing and a curse, he gradually recovered his voice, and his small voice gradually lit up, ready to try his skills on the stage, but the troupe disbanded.

Lin Weiran hadn't finished singing a verse when his father called out "Ran boy" with a high decibel. "But boy, your Aunt Zhang and Erfeng are here, come out quickly!"

The Aunt Zhang his father was talking about was the wife of a truck driver in the west of the village. In the past, her relationship with the Lin family was neither good nor bad, just average.Erfeng is her daughter, Lin Weiran left home since she was a child and can't remember if they played together when they were young, but his mother mentioned Erfeng the last few times when he came home, saying that she was good to look after this girl when he was young.

As soon as Lin Weiran came out of the back room on the second floor, she saw Aunt Zhang standing in the courtyard talking to his father, and his mother smiled and looked at a tall girl next to Aunt Zhang, her face was flushed.

This... Lin Weiran has vaguely guessed what is going on.Let him sit down and pour the water, and chat for a while, Lin Weiran's mother talked about some embarrassing things about him when he was a child, Lin Weiran laughed, revealing his two deep dimples, and raised his eyes to Erfeng, in her eyes The scorching heat made Lin Weiran feel uncomfortable.

During the busy farming days these days, Lin Weiran also went to the fields to help after practicing early in the morning.Before he went home, his third uncle told him not to stop practicing. He himself felt uncomfortable if he didn't do Lajin for a day. Besides, if he didn't practice at home, wouldn't his parents be suspicious?

That day, he was bending over to work in the field, when he heard his father behind him say "but the boy opened his mouth", he tilted his head slightly, and a straw was stretched out to his mouth, and he sucked it, a touch of honey water.It's not his dad's style.

Lin Weiran looked back and saw that Erfeng was blushing, holding a thin porcelain bowl with her left hand, and holding a straw with her right. Behind her were the Lin family's parents who were smiling a little from ear to ear.

After dinner, Lin Weiran melted the eye circles with a pot of soot in the house.

His Danfeng eyes are double inward on one side and double outward on the other. Although the size of his two eyes looks the same, if the eye circles are adjusted according to the width of the folds of the double eyelids, it is easy to be one big and one small.

It’s okay if it’s performed on the stage, and the audience may not be able to see it if it’s far away, but their county troupe usually sends plays to the countryside, and Daguping, the ancient temple platform, and even under the big tree at the entrance of the village used to be their performance venues , the fellow villagers stood up close and watched. Aren't Lu Bu's eyes so big and plausible?

So he practiced eye circles when he was free.

The door squeaked behind him, and Lin Weiran saw Erfeng push the door in from the mirror, his mother yelled "You guys talk for a while" outside the door, then turned and went downstairs.The folk customs in the countryside are simple, and it is common for people to visit each other. No one will say hello in advance, and knocking on the door of the host's house will definitely receive a warm welcome.

Lin Weiran's mother never thought of letting Erfeng come in after telling the child first, she just thought it was not time to sleep, what would others be afraid of if they came in, besides, the girl was not ashamed to come home on her own initiative.

Lin Weiran felt a little uncomfortable, but still smiled and stood up to greet Erfeng.

He has such a character, he doesn't like to say what he thinks in his heart, and he doesn't show it on his face, he is sullen and restrained.People who don't know him will think he is easy-going, but he is not.

"You..." Erfeng looked up at him and smiled.

"I'm going to wash my face." Only then did Lin Weiran remember that he still had two dark circles under the Panda brand.

Erfeng nodded, looked at Lin Weiran running towards the door with a blushing face, and whispered: "It's actually quite beautiful."

Lin Weiran squatted by the well holding water to wash his face.His village had tap water a few years ago, but he still likes to use well water, which is cool and comfortable, and it doesn’t have the weird smell coming out of the aluminum water pipes.

Wiping off the water from his face, he opened his eyes and saw the face towel that should have been hanging behind his door.After taking it and wiping his face, he stood up and said "thank you" to Erfeng.

Lin's mother said with a smile on her face, "You guys go out for a walk", Lin Weiran caught a glimpse of her mother holding Erfeng's hand from the corner of her eyes, knowing that it was impossible to refuse at this time, she had to stuff the towel into her mother's hand, and Erfeng went out for a walk.

At the beginning of May, in the evening in the countryside, the scenery is very beautiful.The mountain flowers are full of insects and birds singing, and a lot of fennel grows on both sides of the field ridges. The air is mixed with various natural aromas, which is very pleasant.

It's a pity that Lin Weiran was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery and beauties at all, no matter how Erfeng's long braids were blown up by the breeze, they couldn't caress him.

The author has something to say: I read that Peking opera students should not practice their small voice too early, so it seems that five or six-year-old children do not learn much from them, and it is easy to damage their voices.Every boy in an opera school has to change his voice to see if his voice is upside down before deciding whether he can continue singing.There was a handsome guy in a competition last time. He was a little Peking Opera star since he was a child.That kid is so handsome!

To correct a mistake, I didn't understand it when I wrote the article, in fact, Wusheng didn't have a voice.An excellent martial arts student must have a voice.Recently, I have watched a lot of martial arts dramas, and gradually I can see something famous.The martial arts students who can only fight but not sing are mostly supporting roles or secondary roles, with beautiful somersaults and chic movements, but those who can play the leading role have voices.It seems that most martial arts operas are Kunqu opera singing, and they are sung while doing it. It is not enough to have lung capacity without a voice.
