Chapter 21 The Stage Play

Lin Chengshuang didn't find the stack of "birthday presents" on the balcony until two days later, and called him directly: "I saw the autographed photo you sent me! I knew you still love me the most... "

Ji Li: "You read it wrong, May [-]rd is the gift."

"Uh……"

"It's almost late for my self-study here, so I hang up."

Lin Chengshuang hurriedly said: "By the way, are you free this weekend? Do you want to come out to play together?"

"Sorry, no." Ji Li explained, "I'm going to the imperial capital this week."

"Would you like to see your grandma?" Lin Chengshuang regretted, "That's fine, we'll make an appointment next time."

Taking advantage of the weekend holiday, Ji Li took the high-speed train going north.

The next day, Ji Li followed his grandmother to his father's cemetery.

The location of the cemetery is very quiet, and it is repaired every year. Even the texture of the stone fence matches the direction of the blade. It is obvious that the old lady paid great attention to the purchase.

The old lady of Ji's family passed away early, and she has two sons and a daughter under her knees. Both the eldest son and the youngest daughter are busy with work, and the elders only find time to come out when speaking. They also brought the children of the two families with them.

The joss sticks and sacrifices were sent by others in advance, and they only needed to use them directly.The only thing Ji Li brought over with his own hands were two bouquets of flowers glistening with dew, and a pure white bird of paradise raised its head and spread its wings.

One bouquet was inserted in front of this tomb, and the other was given to another tombstone adjacent to it.

Ji Li wiped the small statue on the stone tablet clean with a silk cloth, stared at the fixed smiling eyes for a while, stood up and bowed to the tombstone.

In fact, he had never seen the other person, at least he hadn't seen the other person's appearance when he was alive, because the other person went there before he was born to save his mother.

But now, his mother's tomb stands next to his father's, with a distance of less than ten meters.

Because the old lady missed her grandson, Ji Li stayed in the imperial capital for lunch before leaving, but even if he bought a ticket for the latest train, he would still be able to return to Chongliu City at night.

The weekly exam in the afternoon is definitely going to be missed.

The others only knew that he went to the emperor to visit relatives, but they didn't know who he was visiting, and they all expressed their envy.

Until the school committee appeared and ruthlessly interrupted the fantasy.

【Cui Juyue: What are you thinking】

[Cui Juyue: Brother Xiaosa will definitely ask him to come back and make up for the Chinese test this week]

【Jian Mingyuan: I suddenly don't feel envious anymore】

[Cui Juyue: Monitor, are you in the car now? 】

[Ji Li: Well, I'm making up my homework.What's wrong? 】

【Cui Juyue: No big deal】

【Cui Juyue: We'll discuss it after you come back】

Ji Li put down the phone.

There are foldable small table boards behind the seats of the high-speed rail, and Ji Li used it as a pad for the test papers.

Sitting on his right is a lady with a child. The child is too young to be held by its mother, and its two paws are waving around, grabbing the pen cap that is moving on the left.

Ji Li was caught off guard, and the tip of his pen made a long mark on the test paper.

The lady hurriedly stopped: "I can't take this, return it to brother!"

The child clung to the cap of the pen.

The lady tried to break her hand: "Baby is obedient, let go!"

The child took two breaths and began to sob and cry.

The people around couldn't help but look this way, the lady is also a novice mother, she couldn't be coaxed well under anxiety, and her head was sweating from anxiety.

Ji Li put down his pen, took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and shook it: "Baby, look at this."

The chocolate was given to him by the old lady before he left. It was wrapped in gold foil and shone under the lamp. The child liked it at a glance, and reached out to grab it.

Ji Li nodded the pen cap in her hand, and coaxed her softly: "Shall we exchange?"

The kid grabbed the chocolate, uncapped the pen, and giggled.

The lady breathed a sigh of relief, and said gratefully, "Thank you, little classmate, did I bother you to do your homework?"

"No." Ji Li smiled, "She's very cute."

The child can't speak yet, but he can already intuitively discern the meaning in the words of the people around him, and he looks up with a sweet smile.

The test paper was almost done, Ji Li put away his things, and when he got out of the station, he saw a private car parked outside.

The window of the driver's seat was lowered halfway, revealing Aunt Lin's face: "Little Li, come up."

Ji Li walked over: "Did my grandma call you?"

"Yes." Aunt Lin turned the key and started the car, "Go to school now? Why don't you just go home and rest for the night, and forget about it tomorrow morning?"

Ji Li shook his head: "There is still self-study at night."

"Okay, it will take a while to get to school here, you should take a rest first."

"Excuse me."

"What's the matter?" Aunt Lin turned the steering wheel, showing an expression of "unfortunate family": "It will be great if we have you as a good couple in our family."

In the past, she didn't think there was anything wrong with her monkey-like son. It's normal for a boy to be more active. As long as his conduct is not too serious, no matter how poor his grades are, he will never fail in the future.

Until later, the old lady of the Ji family came over and entrusted her grandson to their family who lived in Chongliu City to take care of her because of her school status, and paid money on time every month.

She didn't know much about the Ji family. At first, she knew that the child had lost his parents at such a young age, yet he was so self-disciplined and polite that it made people feel distressed. Later, she saw Ji Li and Lin Chengshuang with their own eyes for three years in junior high school. , a year of high school, and a brilliant record of occupying the top and bottom positions of the grade list for four full years.

With contrast, there is an instant injury.

If it wasn't for the technical level, she really wanted to put her son back and rebuild it.

Ji Li didn't expect that the first classmate he saw after arriving at school was not Lin Chengshuang, nor Jian Mingyuan, but Ying Yunsheng.

Originally, I followed the teacher's instructions and went directly to the office. When I glanced at him, I saw the other party standing by the desk, looking up and looking at him as if feeling something.

Prophet Mao handed over a paper: "The answer is in there, you just need to correct it by yourself after you finish writing it, I won't spare time to explain it in the weekly exam paper class, read the explanation if you make a mistake, and ask me if you don't know it. "

Ji Li walked out of the office with the test paper and answers in his arms, but instead of going back to the classroom, he stood still outside the door.

In less than half a minute, Ying Yunsheng came out with a whole class of Chinese answer sheets.

"You don't have a weekly exam this afternoon?"

Ji Li said "hmm" and said, "Going to visit relatives."

The two didn't stop talking outside the office. Ji Li rummaged through his pockets as he walked up the stairs, and took out another golden chocolate: "For you."

Ying Yunsheng was stunned for a while.

When the old lady stuffed him with chocolates, he took two. One coaxed a baby on the road, and now there is only one left.

But the use is the same.

Seeing that he didn't take it, Ji Li simply peeled off the wrapping paper and handed it over: "Open your mouth."

Ying Yunsheng took his hand and bit the snack, then turned to look at him.

The light in the corridor was dim, and the light from the classroom on one side shone through the window on the man, dividing the half-bright and half-dark border of Chu River and Han, and smiled softly at him.

Ying Yunsheng suddenly called him: "Ji Li."

"Ok?"

"Do you have someone you like?"

"Uh..." Ying Yunsheng didn't know why he suddenly asked, but he had to take advantage of the moment when he was not clear-headed emotionally, otherwise, once he was relieved, it would be absolutely impossible for him asked such a question.

"Do you have someone you like?"

Ji Li was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this sentence just after throwing out the trash: "Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

"I went back and thought about it for a long time," Ying Yunsheng said, "That girl seemed to want to confess to you on Wednesday night."

"No." Ji Li was a little helpless, "She just wanted to say thank you."

"People in our class talk about you a lot."

"It's such a coincidence that people in our class often mention you."

"Wang Lili asked you if you could be her boyfriend when she was in elementary school."

"She turned around the next day and asked her deskmate if she could be her boyfriend."

"I have seen many people like you in private and write love letters to you since the first year of high school."

"Their liking is the same as that of celebrities. If you can say love to this one today, you can change the wall tomorrow."

Ji Li smiled and said: "Most people in this world like butterflies but not caterpillars, but they are essentially the same species, at most, the former lived a few months longer than the latter and looked more eye-catching. And humans are born visual animals, even if the first reaction is to catch them, they are used as specimens rather than kept."

Ying Yunsheng: "You are changing the concept secretly."

"It's a fact." Ji Li said, "They didn't have real feelings for me from the very beginning, and your question itself is meaningless."

Ying Yunsheng looked at him fixedly: "Is there no one around you who has confessed to you seriously?"

"Yes, I have."

"and then?"

"And then it broke."

"Uh……"

"It's impossible for me to keep someone who likes me by my side and continue to be a friend. There is no one else in the world except this one." Ji Li said, "What's the difference between this and fish farming?"

Ying Yunsheng didn't know what "fish farming" meant, but he also knew that it would definitely not be a good word in connection with the context.

He was silent for a while: "What if... someone close to you will confess to you in the future?"

Ji Li: "Break friendship."

The sudden get out of class bell rang between the two of them, breaking the precariously stagnant atmosphere at once.

Ji Li patted him on the head: "You're only so old, don't think about all these things."

"You're just four months older than me."

"Okay, I'm young too, children should study hard." Ji Li didn't argue with him, pushed open the security door, waved his hand, and walked downstairs, never entering the shadow of the stairs.

There was a 10-minute break after the morning self-study get out of class. Cui Juyue was holding her mobile phone and her shoulders kept shaking.

Wu Yiqing saw this scene as soon as she walked over, and asked inexplicably, "What's wrong with you?"

Cui Juyue raised her head, her eyes were foggy, filled with tears that were about to cry.

Wu Yiqing panicked all of a sudden: "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Cui Juyue took the tissue handed over by the other party and wiped the corners of her eyes, "I'm so happy."

"Uh..." Cui Juyue pulled her to lower her head under the table, and turned the phone over: "Look at this."

There was a full-screen photo on the screen. It was probably a candid shot taken under unexpected circumstances. The picture was a little distorted, but it was obvious that the two people in it were students of their school. It was brightened by these two people for more than one degree.

And one of them stretched out his hand and seemed to rub the other's head.

Wu Yiqing stared at it for a long time: "The one on the left seems to be our monitor, and the one on the right..."

She suddenly shuddered, and her head hit the desk directly, the pain was so painful that she almost burst into tears.

Cui Juyue pressed the back of her head that she hit: "Can you be more careful."

Wu Yiqing's eyes widened: "He, he, he...they..."

Cui Juyue nodded, smiling as an old mother who finally saw her son grow up: "Do you know how excited I was when I saw this photo on the forum?"

Wu Yiqing said in her heart that she didn't know just now, but now she knows.

Cui Juyue turned off her mobile phone: "By the way, why did you come to see me?"

Wu Yiqing moved her head up from under the table: "As for what happened yesterday, did the monitor agree?"

Cui Juyue froze instantly: "Nothing."

"Squad leader." Cui Juyue shouted.

"Squad leader, there are only three lines in total, and the total must not exceed thirty characters."

In the middle of writing an inscription, Ji Li raised his head and sighed: "There are so many people in the class, can't you change one?"

Cui Juyue leaned on the table: "This may be our last group activity in high school. As the leader of the class, shouldn't you lead by example?"

"Uh……"

"This is already the character with the fewest lines in the whole play. You can just play a cameo role. You don't even need to rehearse. I guarantee that your precious study time will not be wasted."

"Uh……"

"The main purpose of this year's art festival is for students to be judges, not teachers, otherwise we wouldn't be looking for you."

"Uh……"

"Squad leader, just a very ordinary little character..."

"Stop." Ji Li stopped her, "Are you sure you gave me an ordinary character?"

"Uh……"

"Let me play Sleeping Beauty?"

"Uh……"

"Aren't you afraid that the original author will crawl out of the coffin and knock on your door?"

"Uh..." The program of the art festival is actually not limited to stage plays, but because it is graded by students, after a heart-to-heart discussion, everyone agrees that it is easier to get a high score in role-playing than singing and dancing with special classes Some.

And the most emotionally arousing part of the performance is naturally the cross-dressing.

Cui Zhuoyue firmly believes that she has sufficient legitimate reasons for looking for Ji Li.

It's definitely not because he just wants to take advantage of his position to see him wear women's clothing.

It's a pity that the person involved disagreed, and it was impossible for her to forcefully pull him onto the stage.

In contrast, Jian Mingyuan, who was at the same table with Ji Li, showed great enthusiasm for the festival.

"Speaking of which, did last year's art festival have two classes cooperating to perform a program?"

Cui Juyue glanced at him: "You also want to find another class to cooperate with?"

Wu Yiqing is a literary and art committee member and knows more about this: "But if the two classes are not familiar with each other, the rehearsal process will be half the effort, and the final scores will be shared. If the grades are good, it's okay, but if the grades are not satisfactory, there is a high probability That's the beginning of class fights."

Cui Juyue: "And the people in the specialty class have already decided on the performance program, and it is impossible for us to get in now."

Wu Yiqing: "So it's completely unnecessary."

Jian Mingyuan: "But I didn't say I was looking for a specialty class."

Question marks appeared in the eyes of the two girls in front of them at the same time.

"Aren't you looking for Ji Li because of his topicality in our grade?" Jian Mingyuan said, "As long as he is topical, isn't there one in the first class of science?"

"Uh……".

Jian Ming never thought that he just made a suggestion, and the result would be like this.

At the beginning, it was just that Ji Li was unwilling to act. Cui Juyue complained every day about how much traffic he was about to lose in his class. He simply wanted to help the class develop. Nothing.

As a result, in the following week, he witnessed with his own eyes how his deskmate was getting more and more ruthless.

Jian Mingyuan was puzzled: "Haven't you guys already talked to the first class of science? Why are you still looking for him?"

Cui Zhuoyue said: "The literature and art committee member of the first class of science said that it is okay to cooperate, but the condition is that the ceremony must be attended."

Jian Mingyuan: "?"

Cui Juyue: "In exchange, they will try their best to persuade Ying Yunsheng to participate."

Conciseness is far from understanding.

Ye Ruhui in the front was originally listening to the excitement with a sandwich in his mouth, but because he had also been cast in the role before and knew something about the script, he suddenly interjected: "If Ying Yunsheng participates, then you can talk about it. Change your mind."

Cui Juyue instantly put on an expression of wanting to hear more about it.

Ye Ruhui said: "Let Ying Yunsheng play Sleeping Beauty again."

"Uh……".

In fact, neither of the two classes moved anyone in the end.

But the partnership is still there.

It is said that it was because the two parties shared their experiences, and the similar experience of working hard for so long but not touching their own façade signs made both parties feel a sense of sympathy for each other, and they made a decisive decision.

Ji Li didn't pay attention to the follow-up, and still had to go to class every day and brush up on the questions.

Except now every time I go to the canteen after class, I can always meet Ying Yunsheng.

He couldn't hold back: "You have to follow me?"

Ying Yunsheng nodded: "Yes."

"why?"

"I'm afraid you're in danger."

"What danger can there be in school?"

Ying Yunsheng looked at him expressionlessly, with three large characters written in his eyes: What do you think?

Ji Li said he would not leave him, so he simply went with him, just as if he had an extra regular fan friend.

And one of the great joys of this process is feeding people.

For the first time, Ji Li discovered that he might have a hobby in feeding.

Ying Yunsheng tried to refuse at first, but then he probably saw the situation clearly, so he gave up and let himself go.

The discussion about "like" that day didn't have any impact on Ji Li.

Ying Yunsheng could see clearly, and the clearer he was, the calmer he would be.

Ji Li suddenly reached out and grabbed him: "Be careful."

When Ying Yunsheng came back to his senses, he saw the steps in front of him.

"What are you in a daze for?"

Before Ying Yunsheng could find a good excuse, thunderous applause suddenly came from the art building next to him.

It was so loud that it abruptly attracted the attention of all the students passing by.

"What are they doing?"

Ji Li glanced at the art building: "Maybe someone from our class is rehearsing."

"Art festival performance?"

Ji Li hummed, seeing that his gaze had been on it all the time: "Would you like to take a look?"

The script still uses the story adapted by Wu Yiqing, because the two classes cooperated to make fine-tuning and added many characters.

Later, I specially borrowed the music classroom in order to provide the background sound for the plot. People in this class played the piano, and people in that class played the violin.

The wisdom of the ancients that a single tree cannot support a thousand trees into a forest is perfectly presented here.

The full name of the story is "The Witch of the Deep Sea and the Snow White Queen".

The witch of the deep sea successfully replaced her own voice because she got the voice of the Little Mermaid. Stabbed fell into a deep sleep, was thrown into the forest after being punished by the king, and met the Snow White Queen in the forest.

Snow White pursued beauty for half her life, but in the end she was expelled from the country after Snow White returned, and even the magic mirror that was always with her was smashed.But she didn't know that the magic mirror was just a magical tool for communication. The man-like voice of the man who had been talking to her all this time was the deep-sea witch who tried every means to pretend that she was going to sea to find "netizens" because she was afraid that her voice would be unpleasant. .

There is also a more magical point here. The magic mirror only transmits the sound but not the picture, so Queen Snow White doesn't know that there is a witch on the opposite side. Similarly, the witch of the deep sea doesn't know what Snow White looks like.

Ji Li only saw this at the beginning, so he really didn't know how to evaluate the screenwriter's imagination.

Ye Ruhui played the role of the magic mirror that shattered into pieces at the beginning and only existed in Snow White's memory.

"Can you stop being so perfunctory in your words? You are recalled by the queen now, with a double filter of death and affection, can you have a more affectionate expression? Think of the queen as the goddess you can't ask for!"

Ye Ruhui: "I have never had a goddess, how do I know what my attitude is when talking to a goddess?"

Jian Mingyuan: "Can't you imagine? Can't you think of the person in front of you as Audrey Hepburn?"

Ye Ruhui: "If you can treat the old Wang next door as Cleopatra, I can treat a man as Audrey Hepburn."

Jian Mingyuan: "Can you respect your personality?!"

Ye Ruhui: "If you are a tree here, you won't be destroyed if you talk about it?!"

Jian Mingyuan: "..."

Wu Yiqing slapped the script on her face and rolled her eyes helplessly at the sky.

Taking a glance from the corner of the eye, he suddenly found two extra people at the threshold.

"Squad leader? Ying...Yunsheng?"

Ji Li nodded: "Don't worry about us, just rehearse."

In the play, it is not Sleeping Beauty, but the two leading actors, who are finally finalized for the striking role.

Because there are too many classes in the whole grade, the time left for each class is limited. In addition to the leading role, the other characters in the whole play are actually only a few lines. of.

It is said that moving the props up and down in the middle of the performance is too troublesome and too easy to make people play, so I simply asked the students to carry one piece on their backs and use it as a background board when the time comes.

The only character who doesn't need to be reversed, has more than ten lines of lines, and doesn't need to carry heavy props is the magic mirror.

It can be seen from this that it is not unreasonable for Jian Mingyuan to be so jealous of this role.

It's a pity that Ye Ruhui didn't feel honored at all.

Asking him, a man, to treat another man as the lover of his dreams at the same time, is this a fucking human thing?

As for why the two leading actors have to play back together?

"To be honest," Wu Yiqing said sincerely, "Actually, when we first talked about cooperation, our idea was to have you two play the leading roles."

"Uh……"

"But none of you are willing, we have no choice, so we settled for the next best thing and got the Sleeping Beauty with the fewest lines. It would be nice if one of you was willing to dedicate himself to the festival."

"Uh……"

"It's a pity that none of you want to be a girl."

"No."

Hearing this, Ji Li turned his head subconsciously.

Wu Yiqing was surprised: "Why do you want to? Then why did your class culture committee tell me that you don't agree to act?"

Ying Yunsheng looked at the open space in front of him: "I just don't want to be alone, I didn't say I don't want to be a girl."

Ji Li looked sideways at him.

Ying Yunsheng didn't speak any more, just staring at the small spot of light cast by the incandescent lamp on the ground.

People always have ridiculous thoughts.

It would be great if he was a girl, this idea really appeared in his mind once.

It is only natural for a girl to like a boy, but if a boy likes a boy, he will be called crazy.

Ying Yunsheng didn't expect that the day after he said that sentence, he would be approached by his art committee again.

"I heard you don't mind cross-dressing?"

Ying Yunsheng didn't raise his eyelids: "I don't act in stage plays."

"Don't worry, brother, Ji Li finally let go and agreed, if you don't give us face, at least give him face..."

Ying Yunsheng's pen stopped suddenly: "Who agreed?"

"Ah?" The cultural committee was stunned for a moment before realizing, "Ji Li, he is..."

"Why did he agree?"

"I don't know about that either," the Culture Commissioner scratched his head, "The people in their class seem to be quite strange, and there is no sign of it."

There are omens.

Ying Yun thought.

After watching the joint performance of the two classes yesterday, they walked back together, and Ji Li suddenly asked him: "Do you like the deep sea witch or Snow White?"

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

"Do you like the deep sea witch or the Snow Queen?"

"Deep sea witch."

"why?"

"She's great."

Ji Li was surprised when he heard that: "Excellent?"

Ying Yunsheng nodded: "It's just amazing."

At least she dared to love.

But now, their class cultural committee sat in front of him and said to him: "Ji Li chose Snow White, and there is one deep sea witch left. And I have already asked, the brothers who play these two roles are eager to strike immediately, if you agree, You can take over the role of the deep sea maiden now."

Ying Yunsheng clenched his pen tightly.

Can't think about it.

It cannot be expected.

Don't be self-indulgent.

Can't……

"Brother, big brother, Ying Xueba, please count on me..."

"I act."

Cultural Committee: "You...really?!"

The author says:

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
