At two o'clock in the afternoon on the third day after the end of the play, Cheng Xiaolou and Duan Lanquan came to the gate of the Yulang Theater on time.

Yulang Theater, like the Rongchun Hall in Wu Mantun, is a two-story courtyard.

But whether it is the geographical location, the scale of the area or the layout and decoration, Yulang Theater is much stronger than Rongchun Hall.

I don't know if there was no performance arranged in the first place, or because of some other reason, the Yulang Theater did not open this afternoon.

"Tut-tut, it is worthy of being one of the best opera gardens in Mianshan, look at this red gate, this plaque, this lantern ......"

Standing at the gate of the Yulang Theater, Duan Lanquan smacked his lips vigorously on crutches, obviously having a very good impression of the theater in front of him.

Although, he's been here more than once.

"Hehe, it's really good, it's a bit of an old opera garden. ”

Cheng Xiaolou also smiled and nodded, this opera garden is known to be some years old at a glance, and every brick and tile exudes a faint antique fragrance.

"Let's go, let's go in and see. ”

Standing at the door for a while, Cheng Xiaolou took the lead and walked in.

There is a begonia planted in the small courtyard of the front hall, which is blooming brightly at this time, and the clusters of red and white petals look cleaner and cleaner in the sun.

"Hello, you must be the boss of Cheng Xiaolou, right?"

Cheng Xiaolou and Duan Lanquan had just walked a few steps into the courtyard, a girl in her early twenties, with a few naughty freckles on her face that were not very obvious, and a girl with short hair heard the footsteps and walked out of the room quickly, blinking at him with big beautiful eyes and asking.

"The boss doesn't dare to be the boss, I'm Cheng Xiaolou, and this is my senior brother Duan Lanquan. ”

Cheng Xiaolou smiled politely and politely reported his name.

Duan Lanquan next to him also grinned, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth.

"Oh, it's really you, I heard that you're only eighteen years old this year, and you're already a horn at such a young age, you're really amazing. Mr. Cheng, Mr. Duan, please come inside, our boss and third sister are waiting for you in the backyard. ”

The short-haired girl was surprised, and her eyes were different when she saw Cheng Xiaolou, and her words were extremely respectful, and every sentence was honorific.

"This sister, you are too polite, please please help us lead the way. ”

Cheng Xiaolou was embarrassed by her "you", and subconsciously touched his nose and smiled more and more sincerely.

"Hehe, in fact, I think you sound awkward, but the boss told me to be very respectful, or else I would have to deduct my money. ”

The short-haired girl was overjoyed by his sister's call, and looked inside on tiptoe, and when she saw that no one came out, she relaxed a lot, and instantly regained the lively and playful energy that she should have at this age.

"Don't worry, I must tell your boss that you respect me very much, by the way, I don't know what my sister's name is, maybe I will sing on a stage in the future, and I ask my sister to take care of me." ”

Cheng Xiaolou lowered his posture very low, and his smile became warmer and warmer, and he couldn't see a trace of the youthful ambition in him, he looked like a sunny brother next door.

"You call me Xiaozhu, that's what everyone in the theater calls me. You are so popular now, how can I take care of you, and you will take care of me in the future. ”

Xiaozhu's personality is very lively, even in the face of the boss in front of her, who became popular overnight, she did not show the slightest timidity.

"Take care of each other, it's useful for me, Sister Xiaozhu just asks. ”

While talking and laughing, the two walked through the theater in the middle and went around the side door to the backyard.

When Cheng Xiaolou and Duan Lanquan followed Xiaozhu to the backyard, a large number of people were practicing in the spacious courtyard, some were holding flower guns and gesturing, some were practicing pacing, and some were babbling.

Seeing the three of them coming in, everyone subconsciously stopped what they were doing, and looked at Cheng Xiaolou and Duan Lanquan behind Xiaozhu.

It is no secret that Yulang's boss invited Cheng Xiaolou to the opera garden this afternoon to talk about things, many people originally had other arrangements this afternoon, and when they heard that he was coming, they pushed their own affairs, so they waited to meet this Tsing Yi, who became popular overnight.

"He's really young, I heard that he just turned eighteen this year. ”

"With red lips and white teeth, he is really handsome, no wonder many people have said that he looks the same as a fairy daughter on stage in the past two days. ”

"If it's blowing that badly outside, who knows. ”

"That's it, now the male dan is no longer as good as before, and with such a little white face, he can compare to the third sister?"

......

There were about 20 people in the courtyard, almost half of men and women, and when they saw Cheng Xiaolou, they looked at them from head to toe, and talked in low voices.

The sound of their discussion was not loud, but it reached the ears of Cheng Xiaolou and Duan Lanquan without a word.

Before he dressed up, he obviously liked these women in the yard more, as for those male compatriots who sang raw horns, net horns and harlequins, they didn't seem to have much of a good impression of him with red lips and white teeth and handsome appearance, and he didn't seem to have much good feelings and politeness between his words.

Peers are enemies, this sentence is not wrong anywhere.

What's more, the conditions offered by the owner of Yulang Cinema to Cheng Xiaolou were not deliberately kept secret, and it was precisely because of this that many people in the theater were secretly unhappy.

"Damn, some people seem to be unconvinced. ”

Duan Lanquan whispered in his ear with a crutch.

"Normal, totally understandable. ”

Cheng Xiaolou smiled noncommittally, and stepped forward without showing any displeasure on his face, and said with a polite smile: "Hello brothers and sisters, my name is Cheng Xiaolou, may I ask who is Mr. Tao?"

His smile was clean and bright, as if he hadn't heard those sour and even malicious comments.

The courtyard was quiet, and many people's eyes unconsciously changed again when they looked at him.

A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a white suit came out of it, and said with a gentle smile from afar: "Boss Cheng is younger than I imagined, he is really a hero out of a young man, please drink tea inside." ”

"Mr. Tao is too polite, how can I be worthy of the title of boss, you still call me Xiaolou, the weather is good today, or we will talk in the yard, what do you think?"

Cheng Xiaolou carefully looked at this theater owner with a scholarly demeanor for two years, his waist was straight, and his smile was like a spring breeze.
