Chapter 233: Tsing Yi
"I still remember the smile on the corners of my eyes and eyebrows, she said, big brother, I can finally perform on stage, you must come and see it." The innkeeper took a sip of his wine, "I almost wanted to kiss it...... It's ok and it's ok......"
Qian Xiangrong made his debut on stage and sang "Farewell My Concubine", which amazed the audience.
This is the innkeeper's most impressive scene to this day. At the age of twenty-five, when I performed for the first time, there was still a little immature female voice, like throwing a stone into a lake. Charming and tactful, suing for entry and death. Thousands of thoughts are full of sorrow when they smile, move and move, and turn back and forth.
In the end, the moment Yu Ji fell to the ground and died, the tears accumulated by the innkeeper finally burst out of his eyes.
Qian Xiangrong became popular overnight, and they all praised her for inheriting the style of Mrs. Qian. Mrs. Qian just smiled, looked at Qian Xiangrong, and said nothing.
"The old lady of the Qianjia family has been singing all her life. We cultivators, singing and listening to opera is just a pastime, she is not, she has given all her enthusiasm and life to opera. The innkeeper said, "There have been many amazing people in this pear orchard, and the only one I admire is Mrs. Qianlao." ”
In that year, Qian Xiangrong became the woman that the male cultivators in the city wanted to marry the most. In the next thirty years, Mrs. Qian rejected countless proposals to Qian Xiangrong.
Qian Xiangrong is still young, and the old lady is definitely reluctant. That's what everybody thinks.
There are still twenty years before Qian Xiangrong retires, and she is already the most famous character in Xiucheng, and the innkeeper gradually retreats from her life. It's just that sometimes when I hear the sound of Qianxiangrong practicing as usual from the other side. He always remembered when he was a child, when he smiled happily, but now he only has a toothless smile left.
"Tsing Yi is an industry, and most of the songs are bitter horns. If the life outside the play is still unsatisfactory, then it will be really bitter, and Coptis is born. The innkeeper said, "Qian Xiangrong himself is a Tsing Yi outside the play, and it is bitter inside and out." I wanted to scatter some sugar, but the final taste turned out to be bitter and astringent. ”
On that day, a handsome and unparalleled son came to Xiucheng, riding a spirit beast. It resembles a white tiger. He listened to a play in the pear orchard. That scene is sung in the White Snake "Sacrifice Tower", Qianxiangrong, a woman who has never been out of the boudoir, actually interprets the sadness of the separation of mother and son to the depth, which makes people can't help but cry.
After Childe finished listening to the play. Find Qianxiangrong. He said. That scene reminded him of his mother.
The two became acquainted because of the play, and later every scene of Qian Xiangrong, Childe would listen to it. Qian Xiangrong is not just staying at home. On the willow bank and the green poplar embankment, you can often see her and her son.
"That son's appearance is really very good, but his taste is not very good, and he actually gave a very ugly jade pendant to Qian Xiangrong as a birthday gift, and I feel ......ugly when I look at the jade pendant," the innkeeper said, "Do you see it, it's the same as taking things outside the door." ”
Wu Jiong turned his head, it rained outside the house, there was an extra umbrella at the door of the inn, and the open umbrella was facing the house, and if the wrinkled surface was jade, it was really not very good-looking.
The male cultivator in Xiucheng was heartbroken, a beautiful flower was picked by outsiders, Mrs. Qian looked for Qian Xiangrong, and Qian Xiangrong only said one sentence: Can we be anything else but friends? Grandma, you're overthinking.
Mrs. Qian no longer cares, Qian Xiangrong's singing skills have already surpassed her, and she only has one less experience. She can't teach Qianxiang what to do anymore, her children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren.
It's just that Mrs. Qian never expected that after only a year, Qian Xiangrong would take the son back to the house and announce their relationship. The Qian family was furious and resolutely disagreed, and Qian Xiangrong finally quietly left Xiucheng with the man. Mrs. Qian was extremely angry, coupled with her earlier depression, so she just left the west.
After another twenty years, a scholar in Tsing Yi came to Xiucheng, how familiar the face looked, the innkeeper saw the scholar standing at the door of a thousand houses for a long time, the side face was very familiar, and he couldn't help blurting out, "I want to look!" ”
The scholar in Tsing Yi turned around, and the innkeeper clearly saw the Adam's apple on his neck, and he was worried, oh no, he recognized the wrong person.
"Big brother......" The scholar in Tsing Yi opened his mouth, and he could hear that it was a clean male voice, but it exploded in the innkeeper's brain, and the voice was familiar to him no matter how it changed, it was the voice of Qian Xiangrong.
"That's right, Qian Xiangrong is a man's body. Mrs. Qianlao had been looking forward to a granddaughter to inherit her mantle, but Miss Qianjia gave birth to a baby boy. Qian Xiangrong was raised as a daughter since she was a child, and later she really thought she was a woman. He followed Mrs. Qian Lao to practice Tsing Yi, sang a female voice, and learned a female form. For so many years, there has been no discomfort in her behavior, and she is completely a girl. Coupled with the magic weapon to hide the gender found by Mrs. Qianlao, Qianxiangrong's male body has not been discovered. ”
Because he was angry with the old lady, after Qian Xiangrong worshiped the old lady, the Qian family finally did not let him enter the house again. At the same time, the news that Qian Xiangrong turned out to be a man spread all over Xiucheng.
remembered that Qian Xiangrong eloped with a man, and the rumors in the city became higher and higher, and Qian Xiangrong was pushed to the limelight again for a while.
"Qian Xiangrong came back because he was abandoned by that negative man, and that negative person is not a good thing, he originally had the good of Longyang, and he had already discovered Qian Xiangrong's male body and deceived him. In the end, it was discarded like a piece of. "The innkeeper seems to have really drunk too much, and his face has turned crimson," Xiang Rong said that the most important thing in his life is that person, followed by singing. Now that person doesn't want him anymore, he wants to dedicate his whole life to his opera like Mrs. Qianlao. ”
That was the last time Qian Xiangrong took the stage in Liyuan, and it was the same as his first stage singing, or "Farewell My Concubine". That play, in the words of the old drama bones, has no ancients before and no one after it, it is a swan song.
Because he's been there, he understands.
It's just that scene, more of it is drowned in rumors, Qian Xiangrong's life in the city is very bad, everyone wants to know his past, and he and that son. but ignored his play. Some people even came to tease him, and Qian Xiangrong was so beautiful that people forgot his male body.
was overwhelmed, and thousands of families faintly blamed Qian Xiangrong for continuing to sing Tsing Yi, embarrassing outside. Qian Xiangrong didn't know what pill he had eaten, and changed his God-given face to be ordinary. No longer has such a soft face, Qian Xiangrong can no longer go on stage to sing Tsing Yi, and the deadline for him to leave the pear orchard has long arrived.
Later, Qian Xiangrong left suddenly, and I heard that the son who abandoned him came to pick him up again. After Qian Xiangrong left Xiucheng, his private affairs were gradually forgotten, but the unprecedented scene was gradually brought up again. So, there were soft-looking boys in the pear orchard who began to sing Tsing Yi, and slowly, men sang women's voices, which became a habitual thing.
"I don't know what happened to Xiangrong now...... Tsing Yi can develop to today's scene, and he has contributed a lot. It's just that the sin at the beginning has made him suffer......" said the innkeeper, standing up, "Actually, even if I knew that he was a man, I still ...... Or ......"
Staggering, the innkeeper got up and entered the back room behind the counter.
“…… I don't mind. ”
The aftermath came out, reaching the ears of Ah Umbrella, who was staring at the oil-paper umbrella at the door of the inn in a daze, Wu Jiong drank the last sip of wine and walked to Ah Umbrella.
"It's raining."
"yes, it's raining."
Ah Umbrella heard himself answer, yes, it's raining. (To be continued.) )
