On the Grass in the Lili Garden [Peking Opera]

After class that day, Teacher Zhao took out something from the bag, and everyone was taken aback when they saw it.A bamboo board about one foot long, the color is yellow, and it looks like it has been around for a while.There is no one who studies opera who does not know it and has not had intimate contact with it: the ruler.

"I know that you are all selected from the theater troupe. You are not here to go out to find a job, but just want to plate gold, so you don't have to feel pressured." Teacher Zhao shook the ruler.

"Kunqu Opera is a comprehensive art in which singing, dancing, melodrama, and white performances cooperate with each other. The long-term performance history has formed the performance characteristics of singing and dancing, especially reflected in the performances of various characters. They can be roughly divided into two types." Teacher Zhao read the words in the book again.

"One is the auxiliary posture when speaking and the freehand dance developed from gestures; the other is the lyrical dance with the libretto, which is not only a superb dance movement, but also an effective means to express the character's heart and the meaning of the lyrics."

"The water sleeve technique we practiced last time is one of the stunts of Chinese opera. The water sleeve is a technique used by actors to magnify and extend the emotions of characters on stage."

"You are all mature stage actors. Regardless of the genre, water sleeve skills are a must. Although Xiaosheng's water sleeves are not as versatile as Danjiao's, it doesn't mean that Xiaosheng's water sleeves can be dealt with casually. The reason why famous artists are called famous is because They can perform unique skills while not forgetting the basic skills, and never let go of the research on any detail."

Teacher Zhao's voice became severe.

When the students heard what Teacher Zhao said, they all lowered their heads and eyes, their faces full of shame.Indeed, the water sleeve task assigned by Mr. Zhao three days ago, everyone thought it was too elementary, and everyone knew it, so they didn't spend a lot of time practicing it.It just so happened that there was a new movie released yesterday afternoon, everyone gathered together and slipped out of the practice room during self-study time.After all, it is the heart of a teenager.

As the saying goes, if you don’t practice for one day, you will know it, if you don’t practice for three days, the master will know it, and if you don’t practice it for ten days, the audience will know it.No, as soon as Mr. Zhao was in class today, he could see that the students did not practice according to the requirements seriously.

Teacher Zhao brought out the ruler, he must be beaten.Although everyone felt guilty for not working hard at their practice, they felt a little helpless on their faces.

Which one of the opera students has never been punished by the teacher, Lin Weiran often left marks on the back of props and knives when he was a child.It's just that after joining the troupe, almost no one was beaten, at most it was the instructor who lost his temper.Now this group of backbone students from various theater troupes, the oldest being 26 years old and the youngest 19 years old, are going to be beaten, and their faces are always a little purple.

"You have caught up with the good times, and the country has begun to support opera. You have to be born 20 years earlier, and even the profession of niche will be wiped out at that time, and there will be no performing studies. However, even if the spring breeze ushered in the opera world You still have to be willing to sweat and endure hardships in learning opera!" Teacher Zhao looked at everyone and said nothing more.

Lin Weiran instantly felt Teacher Zhao's huge aura attacking him.As expected, he was an excellent actor who had reported performances to the leaders many times. His eyes clearly belonged to Lin Chong who was training in the school field. Even though he was over seventy, he was still majestic.

Teacher Zhao stretched out his left hand, and the student who stood first obediently stretched out his hand.

"Don't let you study hard!" The bamboo board was lifted up and fell, with a crisp sound, Lin Weiran's heart tightened, and it hurt when he heard it.The second board was raised, before Lin Weiran had time to take a look at Teacher Zhao's expression, he heard another crisp sound.

"Let me not teach well!" This board actually fell into Teacher Zhao's hands.

"Tell you not to study hard!" The classmate hit the board.

"Let me not teach well!" Teacher Zhao was hit by the board.

Only then did all the students realize that Teacher Zhao was beating the students with the slap and himself with the slap.The lack of strictness in teaching and the laziness of the teacher, it seems that Teacher Zhao attributed half of the responsibility for the lack of work of the students to himself.

Almost at the same time, everyone gathered around and put their hands on Mr. Zhao's.It's obviously my fault, how can I let the teacher be punished, let alone such an old teacher.A young girl who was learning Henan opera cried out, saying that we were wrong, teacher, please stop beating yourself, beat us.

Coincidentally, the difference between Lin Weiran and Qian Ying's hands fell by one-tenth of a second, so Lin Weiran's palm was pressed against the back of Qian Ying's.Lin Weiran froze for a moment, he couldn't take his hand away at this time, besides, there were other classmates' hands under his hand, and it was not easy to do so with more than a dozen hands stacked together.

Qian Ying's skin was naturally smooth and delicate, and the back of her hand was close to Lin Weiran's, and she inevitably felt the calluses in the other's palm.

There are not many martial arts in Yueju opera, and Xiaosheng mainly plays literary operas. Tang Bohu and He Wenxiu, Prince of the Desert, rarely perform martial arts.Unlike Lin Weiran, in order to perform martial arts such as Lu Wenlong and Shixiu, not only the palms and the tiger's mouth, but even the pulp of the fingers were roughened.

"Okay, now let's continue to practice water sleeves." Teacher Zhao's voice was calm.

The students withdrew their hands one by one. Qian Ying stared at Lin Weiran for a few seconds, then withdrew her hands, turned around and returned to her previous position and stood silently.

"Lin Weiran." After class, Qian Ying called him.Qian Ying's Mandarin is not very standard, and it sounds lingering.

Lin Weiran waited for her to speak.

"Take a rest tomorrow, how about we listen to the material aria together?" Qian Ying's eyes are very beautiful, the white part of the eyes is a little blue, and the eyes are very pure.The actresses who played with her always said that her eyes are too charming, which makes people play.

Lin Weiran thought for a while, then nodded in response.

"Today I want to listen to "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", a Yue opera." It was a rare break, everyone went shopping, but Qian Ying continued to study.There is still one month left for the training class to end, and she will soon participate in the Yue Opera Festival competition after returning to the troupe.

"Okay, let's listen together." Lin Weiran sat cross-legged one meter away from Qian Ying, the two of them in the empty rehearsal room, and a tape recorder in front of her, which Qian Ying brought from home.

At that time, when Lin Weiran was rehearsing "The Story of the Willow Shadow", their county theater troupe set up a special research group to show the opera version, TV series version, and movie version of Liang Zhu every day, and of course the quite famous Yue opera "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" was indispensable.

After watching it countless times, Lin Weiran, who couldn't understand Jiangnan's soft language at all, quite liked some of the arias, and could even hum a few lines.This time he came to Beijing to go to school, and there were students from various genres in the class, and he felt that this was a good opportunity to learn from everyone.

"Show me the libretto." Although I have listened to it many times, I still don't understand a few places. The pronunciation of Peking Opera and Yue Opera is quite different.Lin Weiran raised his hand to take the script from Qian Ying.

There are many notes in small characters on the notebook, which should be written by Qian Ying. The handwriting is also beautiful, and there are a few words in it, which are very similar to my own.Lin Weiran looked at Qian Ying, and Qian Ying was also looking at him.Lin Weiran pointed to the tape recorder, and Qian Ying nodded.

Caoqiao worships, classmates read together, send each other off at eighteen, return to eighteen, meet in the building, Shanbo is dying, Yingtai gets married, and turns into a butterfly.After more than an hour, it was over.The tape is shorter than the stage play, and can only record the aria, and the dance part cannot be recorded.

"Which part do you like best?" Qian Ying got up and took the tape recorder, and sat down a little closer to Lin Weiran.

"Eighteen friends, carefree, and quite humorous." Lin Weiran was repeating in his heart the voice of teacher Fan Ruijuan played by Liang Shanbo.Fan Pai also uses guttural sounds, which is a bit like old Beijing opera students.

"anything else?"

"Ten Lovesickness from the Loutai Club is also very nice to listen to."

In fact, what Qian Ying asked "is there any more", referring to the discount of the [-]-year-old gift, besides the carefree and humorous Lin Weiran just said, what other thoughts do you have, such as Liang Shanbo is too stupid, Zhu Yingtai is helpless .In the end, Lin Weiran interpreted it as Qian Ying asking him which part do you like besides the part about sending off the Eighteen.

"Listen to Eighteen Brothers again?" Qian Ying suggested.

Seeing Lin Weiran nodding, Qian Ying took out the tape, looked at the front and back, put it back into the tape recorder, and fast-forwarded for a while.

There is a plum tree in front of the study, and the birds are fighting each other on the tree.Magpies are chirping all over the tree, announcing the good news to you, Brother Liang.

The two brothers went out, and there were pairs of magpies in front of the door.The magpies always report the good news, congratulations to my virtuous brother for returning home safely.

Both Lin Weiran and Qian Ying sang along in low voices, but when they sang "Magpie", Lin Weiran sang "Magpie" according to the pronunciation of Peking Opera, while Qian Ying and Qian Ying sang "Qia" in the tape.Uh, Lin Weiran poked his temple with his hand, but he didn't remember the pronunciation.

Thank you so much, brother, for coming to Yucheng.

Brother Liang, come early to carry the sedan chair.

Lin Weiran liked the part of personally talking to Xu Jiumei. Even though he was only listening to the tape, he could still hear Zhu Yingtai's shyness and bravery, she was a very smart woman.

Qian Ying rewinded the tape again, and after pressing the play button, she was singing, "It's a pity that you don't know how to play the piano, but you brother Liang is as stupid as a cow." Qian Ying smiled and asked Lin Weiran if there is such a stupid person in the world , Men and women are indistinguishable.

Lin Weiran smiled and said nothing.

Before I leave, I want to ask you a question, brother Liang, do you have a wife and room in your family?

When this line was sung in the tape, Qian Ying pressed her finger, and it stopped with a snap.She turned around and sang to Lin Weiran: "Ask Brother Liang, do you have a wife and room in your family?"

Study now and test now?Lin Weiran laughed aloud, and opened his mouth to answer "You knew Brother Yu..." At this point, his eyes met Qian Ying's, but he saw that in the other's clear eyes, there was no trace of Zhu Yingtai asking Liang Shanbo if he was married. The shyness, only bright eager for the answer, without fear, met Lin Weiran's gaze directly.

Lin Weiran already knew what Qian Ying was thinking.Although he has never liked any girl, he is not stupid.

In the past, Qian Ying asked him to practice and study together, but he only felt that it was within the normal range, so he didn't refuse, he couldn't give up eating because of choking, he wouldn't touch a girl, so he didn't want to sing that niche drama.I don't want Qian Ying to be as brave as Zhu Yingtai to ask this question.

Trying to control the ups and downs of his chest, Lin Weiran was thinking about how to answer in his heart.He didn't want to deny it, he just liked Shen Qintian, he had long regarded Shen Qintian as his only lover, why should he deny it.But how do you say this, in front of a girl who likes you.

But before he could speak, Qian Ying sang again: "But who is the unknown daughter?" Seeing the other party's reaction, she had already confirmed that Lin Weiran had a sweetheart.

This song messed up the order of the original song. The original song should be Zhu Yingtai asking "Brother Liang, do you have a wife and room in your family?" , Zhu Yingtai replied, "If your brother Liang is undecided, my younger brother will be your matchmaker." Liang Shanbo then asked, "My virtuous brother will be my matchmaker, but I don't know who the daughter is." This is the right way to sing.

Just now Qian Ying sang Zhu Yingtai first, and then Liang Shanbo.One person plays two roles.

"Is it the one in your wallet?" Qian Ying looked at him seriously.

There is a photo in Lin Weiran's wallet, from left to right are Sun Rui, Chu Lan, Lin Weiran, and Shen Qintian. Lin Weiran is holding a bouquet of flowers and smiling brightly.This is after the success of their second troupe's premiere of the full version of "Wu Song", Shen Qintian presented flowers to Lin Weiran in the background, and the four of them took a group photo to commemorate.

He has never shown this photo to anyone other than the one on the photo, so he doesn't know how Qian Ying saw it.

How did you see it?Of course I saw it with my eyes.The girls of the family pay attention to Lin Weiran all the time, and when he was paying for something, he saw the person in the photo at a glance.

Lin Weiran nodded and said, "Yes, that's him."

After speaking, he instantly relaxed.Tell Qian Ying now, and he will tell the whole world in the future.He looked at Qian Ying calmly, waiting for the other party's reaction.

"Is she your colleague?"

"Well, from our hospital." Lin Weiran didn't know why he told Qian Ying. Could it be that Sun Rui already knew about it anyway, so he wasn't afraid anymore?It may also be that he has already made up his mind, and he is not afraid to talk about it.It is also possible that he wants everyone to know about them and bless them.

"You have great vision, and you are a good match. I wish you happiness forever." Qian Ying smiled, but couldn't hide the pain in her heart.Who can be happy when the first love fails.But the girl in the photo is indeed very beautiful, prettier than herself.

"Thank you!" Lin Weiran was surprised and happy.Qian Ying didn't feel disgusted with herself and Shen Qintian?She blesses us, and it seems she is a heart-to-heart friend.

Lin Weiran didn't know that Qian Ying made a mistake at all, and Qian Ying didn't even know that she made a mistake.Chu Lan, who was thousands of miles away, suddenly sneezed a few times while sitting in the theater school office.

"Are you okay!" The two male teachers at the desk opposite Chu Lan stood up at the same time, their eyes full of concern.Although Chu Lan has already received a certificate that she belongs to the Sun family, it's okay to care about her beautiful colleagues!

Chu Lan thanked the other party with a smile, took out a handkerchief from her bag and rubbed her nose, the huge diamond ring on her finger gleamed under the fluorescent lamp in the office.

It's not that she's showing off, she really doesn't want to receive the attention of the opposite sex anymore.With Sun Rui, her life is enough.But the men around continued to attack. She didn't want to hurt the peace among her colleagues, so she finally came up with a trick and took out the diamond ring that Sun Rui had when he proposed marriage.Later, Dai got used to it, and even after receiving the certificate, he never took it off.

Sure enough, the male teachers sat down at the same time.Right now I don't have the money to buy a bigger diamond for the goddess of my dream.They are all studying Peking Opera. How could the military student in the Provincial Academy have so much money!Hey, feelings hurt my arms, soothe my heart for a long time.What will Taixi do? The destiny is against me!

The author has something to say: No one who learns opera will not be beaten.Even in the last amateur training class, the teacher was carrying Jiedao...Of course, he would only use the back of the knife to point it out
