Wu Shuang listened carefully, but Mi Yang couldn't give any more advice, so she just comforted her and said, "It's okay, you don't have to worry too much, I think Mr. Zhan is a very nice person, and his family must be easy to get along with too. Search :\(¨¨¨¨¨) Watch fine literature for free"

Wu Shuang nodded, her expression relaxed a little.

In the evening, Zhan Rong didn't invite many people, but there were still many people who came here admiringly. Zhan Rong received the reception in the lobby, leaving only a small hall for the old lady and her family to sit down and chat.

Mrs. Zhan is about 70 years old, with silver hair curled slightly, wearing a purple velvet cheongsam, and only a few simple pearl jewelry. She has a good temperament, and it can be seen that she was a big Beauty, sitting there chatting with Zhan Rong's little girl, with a smile on her face.

When Zhan Rong brought Wu Shuang in, the old lady was talking to the people around her. She saw Wu Shuang smiled first, and said in a loving voice, "Here you are? Sit down and have a rest. I told him not to invite so many people." If people come, this child will not listen."

Wu Shuang was a little nervous and sat down next to the old lady.

Zhan Rong said with a smile: "They heard that you came, and they all want to come to see you. I can't stop them. Those people outside have nothing to do with me. Most of them are friends of older brothers and sisters."

Old Mrs. Zhan shook her head and smiled, "You're still acting good when you get a bargain. They invited someone here to help you."

Wu Shuang didn't make a sound at the side. She had heard from Zhan Rong that the old lady of the Zhan family had no children all her life and had adopted several orphans, all of whom had been cultivated into talents.

Zhan Rong was sitting on the side chatting with the old lady, also smiling, not his own mother and child, but better than his own.

Someone knocked on the door twice, and then he couldn't wait to open the door and walked in. This time, a blond foreign boy came in. He saw Mrs. Zhan's eyes light up, and the puppy who couldn't wait to show off Generally, he rushed over and said affectionately: "Mom, look quickly, what I found! Sure enough, it is best to find it by yourself. Isn't this the poster you have always wanted, is it this? Here, the above There are also photos of you and other friends!"

He walked over in a hurry, seeing that no one had time to look at it except the old lady, he came to present the treasure with the two posters he had found so hard, and said proudly: "I even found someone to restore it, the master's handwork is very good !"

The old lady Zhan took it over and was not in a hurry to look at it. She first scolded: "Zhan Yi, you are so irritable, how many times have I told you to be more cautious, and make people laugh? Come and say hello, this is..."

Before she could say anything, Wu Shuang stood up first when she got nervous, stretched out her hand and said, "Wu Shuang, my name is Wu Shuang."

The sneaky little yellow-haired brother who had a Chinese name and spoke Chinese looked her up and down, and then at the old lady.

Old lady Zhan said with a smile, "It's your brother Rong's girlfriend."

Brother Huang Mao immediately smiled, shook Wu Shuang's hand, and said kindly: "Hello, sister-in-law!"

Wu Shuang's face was a little hot when he shouted, but she was also infected by his enthusiasm, and she was not as restrained as before, so she also smiled.

The foreigner said hello, and then looked at the old lady expectantly. He is the youngest of the adopted children, and he is old enough to call old lady Zhan grandma, but when he was young, he heard other brothers and sisters calling "Mom" Envious from the bottom of my heart, this one was also crying and clamoring to shout, but Mrs. Zhan just let him shout.He stayed with the old lady for the longest time, and he has the deepest affection. The old man usually has no other hobbies, but likes to collect some old objects from the pear orchard in the past. The children keep these in their hearts, and help the old man find some when they are free. Zhan Yi was the most diligent in finding them.

Mrs. Zhan put the crystal glasses hanging on her chest on the bridge of her nose, opened the old yellowed poster and took a look. It was neat and clean. The paper was a bit brittle after a long time, but the corners had been repaired properly. A few traces of dirt have also been cleaned up, and it can be seen that they have been carefully disinfected and treated very carefully.

It was a promotional leaflet for an old troupe performing in the first month of the lunar year. Although it was a simple playlist, Mrs. Zhan still read it carefully for a long time. From the list of actors on it, she could see the behind-the-scenes of lighting, painting scenes, props and costumes, etc. The name of the staff, she looked at each word slowly, especially the simple black and white still photo, after she stroked it with her fingers, her eyes looked at it as if she saw the past time through this piece of paper .

"I didn't expect to find this." Mrs. Zhan looked carefully at the time. "In March [-], I remember this one. It was a special performance hosted by the People's Committee, and a theater troupe was invited to perform."

The foreigner asked happily, "Mom, did you go too?"

Mrs. Zhan nodded, her eyes still on the poster, "Go, everyone has gone."

The foreigner showed off to Wu Shuang again: "My mother used to be an actress in a theater troupe. She was the leading actress, and she was very good. Do you think she is still in good shape now?"

Wu Shuang nodded quickly: "Yes, the temperament is very good."

Old lady Zhan raised her head and said with a smile: "Don't listen to him talking nonsense, he hasn't even seen a show at all, I just sang for two years old before."

Wu Shuang said: "You have a good voice, and you must sing well."

Mrs. Zhan said: "There is a little Guizhi in the theater troupe. Her voice is the best. Old students can sing with colorful faces. Later, my father, oh, the head of the theater troupe, specially taught her to learn dan roles. That voice, you have to listen to it live to know what it means to know the taste of meat in March."

Wu Shuang glanced at the poster, was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Who are you and Master Jin?"

"That's my father. You may have heard the names of my grandfather and maternal grandfather more." Mrs. Zhan said a few names to her calmly.

The name of a national treasure Peking Opera master flashed across Wu Shuang's mind, her mouth opened slightly in surprise, and then she became a little nervous. She was looking for materials for making a set of jewelry, and she deliberately read books about Peking Opera for a while. But if you just flip through the book, you will definitely not be able to surpass the Jin family class. The Jin family was the first group of artists to travel together during the friendly visit between the two sides of the strait, and it was a sensation at that time.

As for later, the cultural movement happened in 76, and many old artists suffered a lot.

The old lady Zhan had a dignified manner, but after Wu Shuang observed carefully, she realized that she was sitting in a wheelchair with a thin blanket covering her knees.Wu Shuang lowered her eyes and didn't ask any more questions, but she couldn't help but look at the corner of the wheelchair again, and sighed in her heart.

Mrs. Zhan didn't notice her gaze. She was praising her young son next to her: "This poster is really good. It has been kept for more than half a century. I remember that a ticket cost one yuan and eight cents at that time, which is different from now. Then A set of sesame seed fried dough sticks is only ten cents, which is enough for a full meal." She stroked the poster with her finger and smiled, "It's a luxury to be able to watch a show, but it's still hard to get a ticket, after all, the venue The seats are limited, how can there be such a big venue like now. I remember at that time, my senior brother had a friend who tried everything to get a ticket, and finally learned Sanxian. Come and help us, free of charge, just let him sit on the sidelines and listen to the show, hehe, decades have passed in a flash."

The yellow-haired brother immediately doggedly said: "Mom, you are still young and beautiful!"

Mrs. Zhan was amused by him, and patted his arm lightly, "How old are you, what are you talking about, I miss my old friends, and I don't know if they are doing well now."

Zhan Rong said: "You have been back for a long time this time, I will accompany you to search, and I can always ask slowly."

The foreigner also nodded: "That's right, this time when I was studying in the third hall, I saw someone holding a list of plays over there..."

Mrs. Zhan suddenly looked up at him, grabbed his arm and said anxiously, "What did you say?"

"Ah? I said a play list..."

"No, the third hall...is the third hall still open? Is anyone still there?" Mrs. Zhan asked anxiously and quickly, "Why, why didn't Zhan Rong mention this to me before?"

Zhan Rong hurriedly said: "It's a new store, I haven't had time to ask, don't worry, Shuangshuang knows the young owner of this store."

Wu Shuang also said: "Yes, yes, his name is Mi Yang, what can you do with him? He is also here today."

Mrs. Zhan mentioned the surname, and suddenly smiled and said, "That's right, Mi Hong, isn't his child's surname Mi!" She looked up at Wu Shuang and Zhan Rong eagerly, "You said Mi Yang came here Well, that's such a coincidence, invite him in quickly, I have something to tell him, don't scare that child, just say it's an old friend returning home to visit, I want to talk to him about something homely, speaking of me and his family But it's a good friend!"

Zhan Rong agreed, and went out with Wu Shuang to find someone.

Wu Shuang followed him, her heart was still beating like a drum when she left the small hall, and she asked some questions in a low voice: "Mr. Zhan, why isn't the old lady's surname Jin?"

Zhan Rong was silent for a moment, then sighed: "There are some reasons, and my mother doesn't want to talk about it. We don't want to make her sad."

Wu Shuang hurriedly said, "I'm sorry."

Zhan Rong rubbed her head and said with a smile, "What are you apologizing for? It has nothing to do with you."

Wu Shuang was still annoyed: "I don't know this, so I just ask casually..."

Zhan Rong said: "I didn't tell you on purpose, and it's not an interesting memory. As time goes by, everything will get better gradually."

Wu Shuang nodded.

They searched all the way, and met a big brother of Zhan Rong. Earlier, Zhan Rong specially introduced Bai Luochuan to him, but now only the big brother is left here. He was also slightly surprised when he saw Zhan Rong: "Bai Luochuan? He left with the person he brought, as if he had something to say and went home."

Zhan Rong came a step late, and Wu Shuang had already called Mi Yang, and got the same answer. Mi Yang apologized slightly: "I'm sorry, I have some business at home and I'm in a hurry to go back. Next time we will be hosts. Please eat."

Wu Shuang looked at Zhan Rong with some embarrassment, and then asked, "Ah, so, it's actually Mr. Zhan's mother who wants to get to know you."

Mi Yang: "Huh?"

Wu Shuang said: "She and your grandfather seem to know each other, but I can't tell, just wait a moment." She gave Zhan Rong the phone number, and Zhan Rong explained it to Mi Yang. At Rong's request, he left his phone number behind, and said with a smile, "So it's an old friend of grandpa and grandma, so I should call grandma too, and I'll trouble you to say hello for me, and when we have a chance to meet again, I must spend more time talking with her old man."

Zhan Rong said politely: "Where, we are the ones who want to disturb your peace."

They talked briefly, then hung up the phone, and Zhan Rong went back to explain the whole story to Mrs. Zhan. The old lady was obviously disappointed, but she nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll go and see him in person tomorrow. Where is that Xunsantang opened, is it still near Liulichang?"

Wu Shuang has been there many times and is very familiar with it. She nodded and said, "Yes, I know the address. I will write to you."

She wrote down the address, and showed the map to Mrs. Zhan. The old lady looked at it for a while and said with a smile: "I'm still wondering where it is. It turned out to be the old location. I don't even know the road repairers in the capital." , but I am familiar with that area, take me there tomorrow, just to have a look." gd1806102
