Chapter 14: The Amazing Ancient Stage
"Hehe-this, I can't fly, it depends on the direction of the wind!" Ye Zhengzheng didn't seem to care too much about Yan Wen's rather unkind words, but instead smiled and asked, "It's you, brother, you look very good!
"Hmm!" Yan Wen smiled slightly and nodded slightly, "From the northeast!"
"This is Tingting's younger brother, Yan Wen!"
Seeing that Chu Yating didn't mean to introduce Ye Zhengzheng, Feng Yunqing, who was on the side, slowly stood up with her delicate body, supported Yan Wen's shoulders with a smile, and introduced Ye Zhengzheng!
"Brother, brother!"
Ye Zhengzheng pursed his lips slightly, nodded slowly, and then ignored Yan Wen anymore! He turned his head, looked at Chu Yating on the side, and said with a big grin!
"Tingting, didn't you have your birthday in Qinning yesterday? Those few goods are a total of today, you come back to make up a birthday party for you! Knowing that you love to listen to operas, they invited a few big groups from Pingjing and Jizhong to sing the hall ---- the pot with yellow skin and bangzi, which is guaranteed to make you feel comfortable, hehehe!"
Ye Zhengzheng's eyebrows fluttered when he said it, but Chu Yating refused coldly and shook her head!
"No need! Yan Wen and I have just returned from Chajing, and there are still a lot of things to do tomorrow! We are here for dinner today, and we also want to let Yan Wen and the sisters get acquainted with each other and meet each other! If you want to listen to the church meeting, you can listen to it yourself!"
"Don't, sister!"
Ye Zhengzheng still wanted to open his mouth to persuade Chu Yating, who was resolute, but what he didn't expect was that Yan Wen also opened his mouth to stop Chu Yating and said!
"Yesterday was your birthday? Then eating noodles is the right time! The left and right people are also having a lot of thoughts, let's go and listen to it! The big teams of Beijing and Hebei! With the current momentum, it is not easy to get together! They are all in the same line, how can there be any reason to hide from the stage when they meet?"
Chu Yating was stunned by Yan Wen's words!
She raised her head lightly and didn't speak, but there was a faint trace of worry in her narrow phoenix eyes!
Yan Wen smiled indifferently and shook his head lightly to indicate that it was okay!
"Alright then, let's go check it out!"
Seeing that Yan Wen was so persistent, Chu Yating didn't refuse again, she turned her head, looked at Ye Zhengzheng, nodded and said!
Ye Zhengzheng didn't expect that the young man in front of him, who looked thin and immature, would be able to influence Chu Yating's decision?!
You must know that this Miss Chu is notoriously stubborn in Qinning City!
He took a deep look at Yan Wen with a chuckle on his face!
"Go now, or wait a while?"
Yan Wen gently patted Chu Yating's white and tender lotus root, and then looked at the silent Ye Zhengzheng and asked!
"The platform has been set up, and the horns have arrived! If you want to go now, you can do it, if you want to go later, let them wait for a while, it's all right!"
Ye Zhengzheng thought about it and said carefully!
"Then let's go now!" Yan Wen glanced sideways at Chu Yating, and said with a chuckle, "Don't let Jiao'er wait! After all, we are going to run an opera academy, and there may be more places to communicate in the future!"
"Then you're not eating, aren't you still full?"
Chu Yating pointed to the mess on the dining table caused by Yan Wen's "wind and clouds", and asked suspiciously!
"Singing when you're hungry, hehe!" Yan Wen waved his hand indifferently, "Eat half full, there is something in your stomach, and you don't panic!"
"You're still going to sing?"
Chu Yating's eyes widened with a pair of charming and seductive narrow phoenix eyes!
"Definitely!" Yan Wen nodded as a matter of course, "It's rare to have such an opportunity to exchange and perform with famous actors! I used to follow the grass stage team to the mountains and go to the countryside, how could I have such an opportunity! Even if I don't wear makeup, I have to sing a few parts! Besides, sister, you have a birthday, I can't help but express it, right?"
"Brother, you can also sing?"
Ye Zhengzheng, who had been standing on the side, watching Chu Yating and Yan Wen talk, suddenly interjected and said!
"Yan Wen is the soon-to-be-appointed head of the Peking Opera Department of our academy!"
Chu Yating raised her jade hand and gently patted Yan Wen's shoulder---- not only to Ye Zhengzheng, but also to everyone in the room!
"The future is terrifying!" Ye Zhengzheng smacked his lips, shook his head and exclaimed, "Then let's go, just below the Wuhua Pavilion, the platform is all set up! Qiaoqiao, Xiaoqiong, you can come together, there are so many people!"
Ye Zhengzheng clapped his hands and looked at the other girls in the room and invited them with a smile!
It's not the first time Chu Yating has come to Feng Yunqing's club! So, before Ye Zhengzheng finished speaking, she said apologetically to her sisters, pulled Yan Wen, and went out first!
————————
"Wuhua Pavilion" is just one floor below the box where they dined before!
This is a very solemn and luxurious banquet courtyard located outdoors, the door is locked on weekdays, and it will not be open to the public at all!
But today, this entire courtyard was wrapped up by these top sons and daughters in Huaizhong to sing a church ---- to please the goddess in their hearts!
"How can you casually agree to someone's invitation?"
On the way downstairs, Chu Yating looked at Yan Wen's calm and indifferent face, and couldn't help but raise her pretty face slightly, and said angrily!
Although she also knew that Yan Wen must have his own reasons for making such a decision, she still couldn't help but worry in her heart!
With Yan Wen's identity, it's not so stable!
Yan Wen looked at Chu Yating's delicate appearance with frowning eyebrows and genuinely worrying about herself, and couldn't help but shake her head lightly and smile!
He slowly stretched out his hand, and in Chu Yating's puzzled eyes, he slowly climbed up to her eyebrows!
"Sister, since I promised my uncle to go out of the three eastern provinces with you and come to Qinning! That means that I am ready to face all variables!"
"Anyway---- you can do it yourself anyway!"
Feeling the temperature from Yan Wen's fingers between his eyebrows, and meeting his outstanding gaze looking at him, a faint flush full of shame gradually fell on Chu Yating's peerless delicate face!
"Hehehe!
The beautiful style of the moment only saw Yan Wen, a young man who was still immature, and his heart fluttered!
In order to hide his emotions, Yan Wen smiled lightly, naturally grabbed one of Chu Yating's white and tender wattles, and walked towards the "Wuhua Pavilion" in front of him!
————————
Entering the "Wuhua Pavilion", Chu Yating can feel that the furnishings here are very different from the usual low-key luxury!
Walking inward again, Chu Yating and Yan Wen unexpectedly found that in the center of the courtyard, a real antique two-story stage was set up!
The stage is backed by the eaves of the bright room in the front hall of the "Wuhua Pavilion", and three sides are open to the air, leaving one side for the screen door!
In the center of the screen door, there are portraits of different characters---- Yan Wen and Chu Yating can see at a glance that these colored images depict the "Thirteen Uniques of the Same Light" painted by Shen Rongpu, a painter in the late Qing Dynasty three hundred years ago!
The top forehead at both ends of the suspension platform is engraved with "out of the general" on one side and "into the phase" on the other side;
The roof of the rest mountain, the cornices and corners, the dome of the caisson in the stage, the carved beams and painted buildings;
Between the beams and columns, all kinds of carved statues are unique, extraordinarily delicate and elegant!
Such a professional and exquisite ancient stage suddenly appeared in the banquet courtyard of a clubhouse, which really shocked Yan Wen and Chu Yating!
"Sister, don't say it! just rush to this momentum, your group of wild bees and butterflies are really very hearty!"
Raising his hand to the stage close in front of him, Yan Wen turned his head, looked at Chu Yating, who was still in a trance in his eyes, and couldn't help smacking his lips and whispering!
