Chapter Thirty-Three: The Battered Cook
"I'm not good at anything else right now, so I'm hungry for this. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Watching the two chefs finally finish the cooking and bring it to him, Li Shuang stopped his saliva. Although it was only a short fifteen minutes in between, his gluttony was hooked: "It's better in this era, if it were changed to before, it would be good to have a bite to eat, how can there be this kind of treatment." ”
"When I'm older, I like to reminisce, and so do I. It's like yesterday when I was a young man, and when I woke up, I was already in old age. Wu Xiangang also smiled and nodded.
"In the seventies, my family was really poor, not to mention meat, I couldn't even eat rice, and I was coarse grain every day. At that time, there were four children in the family, and I was the third in line, and my status was not high. It's not as good as the old one, and it's not as painful as the old one. Later, as soon as my parents got together, they handed me over to a cross talk speaker, that is, my teacher, and went to live with others. As soon as the water outlet of the memory was unscrewed, it couldn't be closed, and Li Shuang couldn't stop talking about it.
"At that time, no one had spare food at home, including my master's house. Every day, I have eaten the last meal and the next meal, barely able to live, and it is a luxury to eat enough, not to mention practicing every day. Cross talk pays attention to speaking, learning and singing, and it can be divided into thirteen courses. At that time, what I did every day was to practice hard, and if I couldn't practice well, let alone eat, I would be beaten up. Later, after three years of school, he was barely able to leave the school, so he followed the teacher to the street to perform arts, barely enough. ”
"I have been talking about cross talk for more than 40 years, and in the eighties and nineties, I was counting on being able to make a name for myself in the last Spring Festival Gala. Since the beginning of 85 years, there have been such a group of sketch guys who have walked on the Spring Festival Gala and talked about cross talk to grab jobs, you can say that there is no lack of virtue. Li Shuang pointed at Wu Xiangang and scolded with a smile.
"Didn't they all recover later, and now don't say anything else, as long as you are willing to work, there is no problem at all in living." Wu Xiangang is older than Li Shuang, and he has suffered more. From the era when the family worked hard and couldn't eat, he is also very satisfied with his current life.
"It's been relieved. Later, I said that cross talk began to become famous in the circle, and some parents sent their children to my home and asked me to accept them as apprentices, and I will imitate them for you. ”
The so-called learning in the singing refers to the imitation of the market shouting, provincial dialects, etc., Li Shuang has been immersed in this way for more than 40 years, and has long mastered it handy, imitating a woman in her thirties vividly.
Just look at him standing up, pinching his waist with one hand and putting one hand at his side, looking like he was dragging a child, pinching his throat: "Teacher Li, you see, this half of my family is not good at school, and people are not smart, and it is estimated that they will not be able to do any work in the future, so I will think about sending him to you to learn cross talk with you, which can be regarded as mastering a craft, and usually giving him a mouthful of food, and he will not die of hunger." ”
After Li Shuang finished learning, he put on a dumbfounded expression: "Ho, you co-authored this kid who couldn't do anything and sent it to me?!" ”
This sudden laugh made the audience laugh out loud, even the photographer almost bent over with laughter, couldn't lift the camera, and the recording had to be paused first, so everyone on the scene slowed down first.
After everyone eased up, Li Shuang continued his story.
"Many people think, since the child is not good at learning, just send it to learn a craft, what to learn? The cross talk seems to be very good, standing there and moving his mouth, there is no need to do any tiring work, and the money is not less than that of other industries. ”
"Actually, how can you! If it's really that easy, then everyone will learn cross talk. It's not easy to learn cross talk, it's really hard. There is a tradition in our cross talk industry, that is, you must never teach your own children. Why? I'm afraid that when the child doesn't study seriously, he won't be able to get that hand! Although I don't advocate beating children now, if you ask my apprentices, there is no one who has not been beaten by me. Seriously, if you take the spirit of learning cross talk to learn something else, there is nothing you can't learn! ”
Li Shuang picked up the tissue on the table and wiped his sweat, and after talking for such a long time, his forehead was sweating: "My son was going to drop out of school some time ago, saying that he wanted to learn cross talk with me. As soon as I thought I couldn't do it, I threw him to my old partner and disciplined me for a few days. I stayed with my old brother for two weeks, and when I got home, I ran to school with my schoolbag, and I never talked about cross talk again. ”
Cross talk is generally divided into stand-up comedy, stand-up comedy and group comedy, which are three situations: one person, two people and more than two people. The old partner in Li Shuang's mouth is the one who praised him during the crosstalk. The two have been working together for nearly 30 years, because they talk about cross talk, and they have shaken out all the hobbies of teasing, and now they see him in three words: "smoking, drinking, and burning their hair".
waited until Li Shuang finally said that he was happy, and then he began to move his chopsticks.
"Not to mention, your craftsmanship is much better than that of the yellow-faced woman in my family."
The chef had a smile on his face, and he didn't know how to slander him. No matter how good a person is a first-class chef, if he is not as good as your own cook, then you don't have to do it in this industry.
"Otherwise, I'll send an apprentice to you for a few months of internship, and when I come back, I can enjoy the blessings, and I don't have to go to the restaurant every day."
Frightened, the cook waved his hand again and again, and he just didn't agree.
Just kidding, if your apprentice's mouth is the same as yours, then can my restaurant still be opened? I'm still counting on that store for a few more years.
"Don't accept it? Do you still want this medal? Although he said so, Li Shuang just wanted to have fun, and finally gave the medal to the chef to wear.
The cook was about to cry when he looked at the medal on his chest. After all, it made people destroy an episode of the show alive, and no one could laugh. In the end, they sat next to Yu Nian and comforted each other.
