On the Grass in the Lili Garden [Peking Opera]

"What, plan to marry him?" Zhang Mingfang rolled up his sleeves and tied his apron, preparing dinner for the evening.Xu Yanlin likes to eat fried meat, so he marinated it first.

"The United States allows marriage?" Shen Qintian poured pepper oil into the bowl according to Zhang Mingfang's instructions, but the excitement was too much.

"Hey, you are really Yanlin's master student, I know he likes to eat peppercorns!" Zhang Mingfang stamped his feet, and there was a small half bottle of it.

"Is it true!" Shen Qintian was excited.

"The government hasn't let go yet, but the people have been calling for it. I guess it will happen sooner or later." Zhang Mingfang kept moving the chopsticks in his hand, turning the meat soaked in rice wine piece by piece.

Shen Qintian held the oil bottle and didn't speak. He was both surprised and happy. He never thought that being an American would have such benefits.Seeing this, Zhang Mingfang smiled and said nothing.

He had already expressed his thoughts to Zhang Mingfang tactfully, but Zhang Mingfang didn't encourage him or hit him.

This road is difficult, and he doesn't want to take the initiative to guide Xu Yanlin's students as fellow travelers.All he can do is tell this young man about the difficulties he has experienced, hoping that he will avoid detours and be mentally prepared.

Then, wouldn't they be able to live together under the protection of the law in the future, openly and aboveboard!The more Shen Qintian thought about it in the dressing room, the happier he became, and he was so happy that Lin Weiran who was applying blush on the side was confused.

In half an hour, his self-selected repertoire will be on stage for review. Why is his partner giggling at this critical moment? Can you give me a hand?

Seeing the female colleague in front of the makeup mirror on the opposite side get up and go out, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else in the dressing room, Shen Qintian pulled his gray beard from the middle, revealing a mouth that was made into a figure 8, and made a strange face at Lin Weiran.

Lin Weiran was overjoyed, and directly tapped her middle finger to the wriggling place, and used the rouge on her fingertips to paint Shen Qintian's lips red.

"Believe it or not, I just came on stage like this!" Shen Qintian smiled and pursed his lips.

"You can't see it with your beard, so why not dare!" Lin Weiran rolled his eyes.

"Then you tap on the middle of my forehead, and I still dare to go on stage!" Shen Qintian took Lin Weiran's hand, making a gesture to put it on his forehead.What he actually wanted to say was: Then if you kiss the middle of my forehead, I will still dare to go on stage.At this time, Lin Weiran had finished applying lipstick, and her lips were red and bright.

Lin Weiran giggled and was about to speak, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Shen Yuetian walking in from the door, quickly withdrew his hand, and stood up. "Brother Shen, hello!"

"Hello, Xiao Lin!" Shen Yuetian patted Lin Weiran's shoulder affectionately, and walked to his younger brother.He had already seen the scene just now. Before the performance, they were not serious, and they usually made a fuss. It seemed that they had to separate.He held back the anger in his heart, and looked at his younger brother gently: "Do you want to put on makeup?"

"Brother, why are you here?" Shen Qintian tidied up his beard.He looked at the suitcase at his brother's feet and had a bad feeling.

"Uncle called to say grandma was having a temper tantrum. She said that in other houses, the whole family prepares for Christmas together. In her house, she and grandpa finish it alone. The children only come to have fun for a few days before leaving." Shen Qintian put the suitcase on the wall Side, press the lever down.

"It's not only November, Christmas is early!" Shen Qintian rushed to speak, trying to block what his brother was about to say.

"I haven't seen you for two years. I miss my grandson. She doesn't want to take medicine now, so she's angry." Shen Yuetian looked at Lin Weiran: "Xiao Lin, don't worry, I will definitely not delay your performance. The plane leaves at six o'clock, so it's still early Woolen cloth."

Lin Weiran nodded dumbly, he still didn't fully understand what was going on.

"Can't we go tomorrow!" Shen Qintian was a little annoyed.It's two o'clock now, and I have to go to the airport for an hour, and the flight has to go through the formalities in advance, that is, I have to leave as soon as my role is over and I take off my makeup.

He originally, originally arranged a western dinner to eat with Lin Weiran, as a celebration of his successful performance today.The most important thing is that he wants to explain to Lin Weiran before going to America.I didn't say it before, because I was afraid it would affect his rehearsal.

This was also his intention of running to find Zhang Mingfang at noon.Zhang Mingfang said with a gentle smile as always, after everything is revealed, you will go through hardships, and countless difficulties and setbacks are waiting for you.

"There will be no tickets tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and next week. If you delay, there will be no flights until December. It's only a few days before Christmas, and you still have to buy them." Shen Yuetian looked puzzled, looked at his brother, then looked at Look at Lin Weiran.

Lin Weiran finally understood: Shen Qintian was going to America for Christmas.

"Xiao Lin." Shen Yuetian winked at him, meaning you help me persuade my brother.He was also not sure if Lin Weiran knew that Shen Qintian was leaving, it would be best if he didn't know, and now it's a blow.

"You go, go to America." Lin Weiran paused every word.

Shen Qintian looked into Lin Weiran's eyes, feeling guilty for a while.So far, he has not told Lin Weiran that he is going to visit relatives in the United States this year.He's going to talk about it tonight!

"Leader." Shen Yuetian nodded to Han Pingqian.

"Here you come? Don't worry, Xiao Shen doesn't have many scenes, so I can go to the airport in time." Han Pingqian came in to check his makeup.In addition to Lin Weiran's excerpts today, there are several other plays, and the head and dean are all judges.

Feng Yukun, who came with him, put on some eyebrow powder for Shen Qintian, but didn't speak.

It turned out that he had already asked the regimental leaders for a leave of absence, and everyone knew about it, but I didn't know.Lin Weiran didn't change his face, and he never showed weakness at this time.He smiled kindly at Shen Qintian.Anyway, as a professional actor, I still have some acting skills, although my heart hurts a lot.

Shen Qintian knew he was wrong, so he went to the locker room in despair.

Mom is very kind to you, and she can't see you and him suffering from poverty.Come, come, good daughter, listen to your mother's words, and go pay that honored guest.The madam dressed up gaudyly and pushed Li Yaxian out of the door.After dismissing Li Yaxian, her face changed, and she beat Zheng Yuanhe, who had run out of money, out of the house without mercy.

Zheng Yuanhe was hungry and poor, and he pulled on his shoes, braving the cold wind, with hatred for the madam in his eyes, love for Li Yaxian, and emotion for his own bad luck.

Lin Weiran has learned this scene from Hong Junshi for a long time, and now he is doing pretty well.Hong Jun was watching from the audience, and from time to time he wrote down a note in his notebook, preparing to talk to him after the performance.

Shen Qintian stepped on stage with gongs and drums.This is the first time he and Lin Weiran have officially performed on the same stage. No matter how angry Lin Weiran is now, he will go all out to perform well.

Little bastard, I think Zheng Men is innocent, and there is no brothel guest like you who is unwilling to make progress and is willing to degenerate!When Zheng's father learned that the beggar in front of him was actually the son who went to Beijing to rush for the exam, he was so angry that his beard twitched.He snatched the bamboo stick from his son and hit him head-on, ignoring the pleadings of the old housekeeper.

Kill me, kill me, keep Zhengmen clean!Seeing his son collapsed stiffly, Zheng's father wiped his tears with his water sleeve, threw down the bamboo stick, got on his horse and left, and left a harsh word to order the housekeeper not to bury him.

Shameless people like this are only worthy of being buried in mud.Lin Weiran lay flat on the ground, closed his eyes, and listened to Shen Qintian reading his lines.This line, at this moment, sounds particularly poignant.Lin Weiran didn't know if he was too involved in the drama, he just felt that Father Zheng didn't say this to Zheng Yuanhe, but Shen Qintian said it to Lin Weiran.

When you come to the provincial capital, I treat you sincerely, but you have such shameless thoughts, now I am going to the United States, you take your dirty thoughts to fend for yourself.Qin Tian, ​​is this what you want to say?Lin Weiran's face was ashen.

I only pity that my wife has worked hard to give birth, and when she gets old, she has no children to support her.Father Zheng covered his face and wept, and ended up.The costumer who was waiting at the side quickly helped him take off his coat, Shen Qintian shook his head and hurried to remove his makeup.

Zheng Yuanhe lost his breath and lay on his back motionless.In order to throw off the zombie, Lin Weiran wore a fat jacket, but he was still cold, and the cold air invaded the internal organs.At the moment when his heart throbbed, he even thought that he was really dying, just like in the plot.

Li Yaxian came in a hurry, hugged the corpse and cried loudly, calling "Zheng Lang".

If it wasn't for the assessment, Lin Weiran really wanted to open her eyes and ask her: Are you crying because Zheng Yuanhe died, or did Shen Qintian leave without saying hello?Oh, it was Jung Won Hwa who was crying.If Shen Qintian doesn't tell Lin Weiran the truth, will you cry or not?don't cry?Why?Oh, you said that because Shen Qintian and Lin Weiran are just colleagues, it's not a big mistake not to say hello or tell the truth.

Ha ha ha ha ha.really.He and I are just colleagues, which law stipulates that he must talk endlessly to me?

Shen Qintian thought over and over again in the dressing room, but did not leave a note of apology in Lin Weiran's pocket.Sneaky, not his style.When he comes back from the United States, explain everything clearly, including his study plan.

The taxi that Shen Yuetian booked had already parked outside the door, and the driver helped them put the suitcases into the trunk.

"Just this little luggage?"

"Live for two months, you don't need to bring too much." Shen Yuetian fastened the seat belt for his younger brother.

That's right, anyway, there are all kinds of daily necessities in the United States. If you don't have enough clothes, you can go to your own foreign trade company to get them.Shen Qintian lowered the window glass a little, and then looked at the thick brass plaque outside the gate of the Provincial Court.

The scene on the stage just now flashed in Shen Qintian's mind. He watched Lin Weiran collapse with his eyes closed, but he walked away without mercy.Although it's acting, at least I should wait behind the curtain, rub his back and pass him a glass of water when he leaves the stage.

Shen Yuetian patted his younger brother on the head and told the driver that it was time to start.As calm as he is, how could he bring all his belongings at such a critical moment and make his younger brother suspicious.

Shen Qintian looked at the sycamore trees receding rapidly outside the window, and regretted why he didn't ask Lin Weiran to have dinner earlier and explain why.You must know that he specially drew a world map at noon the day before yesterday, as well as a villain and an airplane, all in cartoon style.He originally planned to tell Lin Weiran in this humorous way that he was going to Chicago, USA, and it would take eighteen hours to connect to the connecting flight, and the Navy Pier over there was very beautiful.

So far, Shen Qintian still has no doubts about Shen Yuetian.He completely believed his brother's words, he believed that grandma refused to take medicine, he believed that the air ticket was only for today, and he believed that his brother would bring him back after Christmas.

After crying for a while, Li Yaxian noticed that Zheng Yuanhe's heart was still beating weakly, so he massaged his heart vigorously.Before Lin Weiran woke up and screamed in pain according to the script, a voice from nowhere screamed into Lin Weiran's ear: Shen Qintian will not come back, he will not come back after going to America!

Ah, it hurts!Lin Weiran was startled and frightened, and blurted out.After shouting, he was still out of breath, and he really looked like Mr. Zheng wandering around before the gate of hell.

The madam was playing with the gold, silver and jewelry that Li Yaxian had left behind for her redemption on the stage, and the costumer was helping Lin Weiran change her makeup in the background, saying while changing, "Xiao Shen is also working hard. After changing his clothes, he ran away with his brother." It is troublesome if the old man is not around, no wonder the ancients said that the elders are still traveling far away, if there is something to do, it is really impossible to catch up."

Lin Weiran looked in the mirror, Zheng Yuanhe was dressed in light green pleats, embroidered with vines of the same color, he was full of vigor and vigor, and he didn't look as downcast as he was in the rich clothes just now.He shook his water sleeves, and the person in the mirror also shook.

"Wow, Xiao Lin, you look so good in green! Xiao Shen put on this pleated dress just now, he's not as handsome as you!" The makeup artist came over to touch up Lin Weiran's makeup, and by the way, she became nympho.

What is he doing with my pleats?Before Lin Weiran could sort out his thoughts, he was urged by the field inspector to get ready to go on stage.

Facing Li Yaxian who also changed his clothes, Zheng Yuanhe held the scroll in his hand and asked with his eyes: "Why is he wearing my pleats?"

Li Yaxian smiled and handed him the poured tea.

Zheng Yuanhe took it and drank it while continuing to stare at her: Why is he wearing my pleats?

Li Yaxian was played by a senior Huadan from the second group. She noticed that Lin Weiran was absent-minded, so she raised her eyebrows, slapped the table with her hand, and shouted: "Zheng Lang, what are you looking at!"

During the rehearsal, there was no such action as tapping the table.

Lin Weiran came to his senses, and said with a sneer, "I see how beautiful my sister is."

Li Yaxian's almond-shaped eyes widened, and he began to criticize Zheng Yuanhe for not studying hard and living up to his youth, if he continued to stare at himself instead of reading books, he would leave him.Zheng Yuanhe responded one by one, not daring to make mistakes, and sat down at the table to read carefully.

"Thank you, Sister Liu." Lin Weiran thanked her partner after the performance ended and entered the backstage.If she hadn't reminded her in a timely manner, she would have made a fool of herself.Sister Liu waved at him and went to the bathroom to remove her makeup.

Hong Junshi had already been waiting in the background, he was always gentle, but he didn't smile or speak at this moment, Lin Weiran felt trembling for a while.He knew that his performance in the second half was very poor. Even if he didn't play again after Sister Liu reminded him, there was hardly any tension in the performance.

Hong Jun didn't speak for a while, and he didn't dare to open his mouth.He knew Hong Junshi was angry because of his lack of commitment in his attitude, not his poor performance.Usually he was worse at studying and acting, and Hong Jun never lost his temper, just patiently pointing out over and over again.

"Qin Tian went to the United States for Christmas. This is a birthday present for you." Zhang Mingfang took out a box from under the table and handed it to Xu Yanlin.Xu Yanlin's birthday was one day earlier than Shen Qintian's, and the two of them, master and apprentice, always celebrated together in the theater school.

"I knew a long time ago that today's meat has such a strong pepper flavor, you must not have mixed it!" Xu Yanlin took out the shoes and tried them on. They looked pretty good, and the boy hadn't forgotten the teacher.Putting on his slippers again, he asked, "Are you going to the US today? Aren't you supporting a colleague?"

"How do you know that he is supporting the play today?" Zhang Mingfang was curious. He didn't tell Xu Yanlin about Shen Qintian's work plan.

"Hong Junshi came to the office and scolded for an hour, how could I not know!"

The author has something to say: I checked and found that the state of Hawaii briefly allowed same-sex marriage in 1993, and then some states successively allowed it. Until June 2015, 6, same-sex marriage was legal across the United States.
