Chapter 31: Prepare props
The two sat at the door of the study and chatted, Mrs. Zhao had already gone back to the backyard, leaving two stupid boys to fight here, Cheng Chumo smiled and said: "Brother, if you want to say that your brain is really good, that fire kang is really a good thing, my father praised it, he fought on the battlefield in those years, and the pain in his arms and legs was unbearable in winter." Fortunately, with your fire kang to relieve him a lot," Su Bai smiled, and waved his hand again and again, these are nothing.
Think about it, such a good opportunity can't be wasted, the two happened to be sitting side by side, Su Bai bumped him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Cheng, do you want to see something interesting?" Cheng Chu silently leaked a bad smile that all men understand, and said cheaply: "There are good goods? Su Bai was a little stunned, why are the children of the Tang Dynasty so precocious, although you are more mature, but you are only nine years old! Su Bai gave him a disdainful look, in broad daylight, he actually thought about these dirty things, it was really.... Confidant!
Su Bai grinned and shook his head, "It's more interesting than that!" Cheng Chumo raised his eyebrows, more interesting than that? Isn't it the little yellow book, it's going to the Qinglou? Cheng Chumo looked Su Bai up and down, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "My father is strict, if he knew that I went to that kind of place, he would kill me", the corners of Su Bai's mouth twitched, and he knew what he was thinking about when he looked at his cheap appearance.
Su Bai coughed lightly and said, "Brother Cheng, have you heard of "White Fox"? Cheng Chumo nodded and said: "I heard the girl at home sing two sentences, it's a little weird, but it's very good", Su Bai smiled and said: "The little brother is not talented, then "White Fox" is written by the younger brother", Cheng Chumo's eyes widened, and he looked up and down Su Bai said: "It's really a person who can't be good-looking", Su Bai twitched the corner of his mouth again, what does it mean that people can't be good-looking? No matter how young master Ben looks at it, he is a handsome boy in the wind of Yushu, okay!
Forget it, for the sake of his own money-making plan, he didn't care about these details, and continued: "Brother Cheng, do you know what story this "White Fox" is about? Cheng Chu didn't care about it: "It's nothing more than what kind of love and love, I'm a big husband, I know what those things are", Su Bai sometimes really wants to strangle him, you say that other people's works are not good in front of the author, are you a fool? Well, it's not an author.
Su Bai decided not to go around in circles with him, and went straight to the point: "I opened a theater with my classmates to perform "White Fox", do you want to see it?" Cheng Chumo pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "The theater is the good thing you say?" ”。 Su Bai smiled: "It's definitely a good thing you've never seen!" Cheng Chumo didn't give any face, and shook his head directly: "I'm not interested, what I hate the most is to watch a play, how good it is to have that kung fu to practice bow horses."
Su Bai took a look, this grandson is not oil and salt, and said excitedly: "Let me tell you, we filmed a movie there, but it scared countless people who called themselves heroes and heroes, Brother Cheng shirked and didn't watch it, but he was afraid?" Cheng Chu glanced at Su Bai silently and said: "I've never seen you so superficial agitation, okay, since you insist on letting me go and see, I won't be able to lose your face, so let's go."
Su Bai thought to himself, now that the clothes have not been finished anything, you can go to see the effect, and shook his head at Cheng Chumo and said, "There are still some props left, how about we set it for noon in three days?" Cheng Chu thought about it for a while, and he didn't seem to have anything to do after three days, so he nodded and said, "But, I'll be looking for you in those three days to see what kind of play you have?" Can it scare me? Su Bai smiled, you wait for me to prepare the materials, I can't scare your third grandson!
In the afternoon, the two continued to discuss for a while, and a few veterans came to pick up Cheng Chumo, Su Bai later learned that Mrs. Zhao was Cheng Yanjin's only sister, and because she was unwilling to marry, she eloped with Zhao Ming, and Zhao Ming at that time was still Yushu Linfeng, which is why for so many years, although there is only one Zhao Yue'er in the Zhao family, and Zhao Ming does not accept concubines.
Everyone knows that the daughter of the Cheng family eloped away and married Zhao Ming, and they also know that they are in Qunxianfang, but for the sake of face, everyone pretends that there is no such thing, and Cheng Yanjin directly denies that he has such a sister, and there is a family standing behind him, and it is impossible to disgrace the family for his sister. Not to mention that the family that asked for marriage is not small, so it has to make the family get by.
......
Su Bai saw that Cheng Chumo was gone, and said to the master that he was going to leave, but Mrs. Zhao stopped him and said: "Ugly cow, you are talented and intelligent, you can study for one day, but you can be worth ten or even a hundred days for others, and the master is afraid that you will be arrogant and waste your talent", Su Bai gave Mrs. Zhao a salute and said: "Thank you for the teachings of the master, the ugly cow will definitely live up to the hard work of the master."
Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "Chu Mo, this kid has no scheming, but he is not a fool, and to interact with him, you still need true affection, you are talented, and your master and I don't have much to teach you, so we can only push you in terms of connections, let you catch up with the line, and the rest depends on yourself." Ugly cow, the circle of aristocrats is not like us, the family may be ruined because of a word, for yourself, but also for your family and master, remember to be careful in everything."
Mrs. Zhao's eyes were hot, he knew that Shi Niang was afraid that she would be proud of her talents and offend the nobles, so she was admonishing herself and pulling herself into the highest circle of the Tang Dynasty, what a favor this was, and how much risk she had to take!
Su Bai bowed deeply to Mrs. Zhao and said, "Master Niang, don't worry, the ugly cow will put his family first in everything, look at ten steps and take one step!" If one day the ugly cow is lucky enough to step on the clouds, the name of "Mingde College" will follow it for a lifetime and never give up! Mrs. Zhao pulled Su Bai up with a smile and said, "Go, go home, don't forget to come to pay New Year's greetings during the New Year." Su Bai continued to bow deeply and turned to leave.
Mrs. Zhao looked at the back of Su Bai leaving, and sighed secretly, looking at ten steps and one step? Ugly cow, you're still young.
......
Su Bai went home with him, and now the east wing room belongs to him and Erniu, Su Bai sleeps in one, Erniu and Xiaobao sleep in one, and Wang Xing and his wife sleep in the main room. Now Wang Xing's family is a little floating, they didn't eat meat at dinner, they ate some pickles and rice, and now the family has reached the point where they want to vomit when they smell the smell of mutton, only Wang Xiaobao can't eat enough, and he is the only one who is holding a leg of mutton at night.
The kang in the two rooms has already made Wang Xing hot, and told Wang Xing about the college holiday, and plans to go to chat tomorrow, Wang Xing nodded, and asked Wang Xiaobao to accompany him, and now with the help of Wang San's family, there are enough manpower, so let Wang Xiaobao serve Su Bai and be a scholar. Su Bai didn't refuse, now it's really time for him to employ people. Wang San's family now lives in the west wing, a family of three is here, two of them work for Wang Xing's family, the child is still young, can only follow the side to coax, grandparents in the village looking at one acre and three points of land.
Early the next morning, Erniu insisted on pestering Su Bai and asked him to take him with him, of course Su Bai did not refuse, his younger brother is also a hundred spirits now, Su Bai naturally does not plan to let his younger brother go back to the village to farm when the time comes, and there is no harm in leading him to see and see now.
Su Bai's family still can't afford to raise horses now, the three of them can only walk to Liaozhai, fortunately, the distance is not far, Liaozhai has no shopkeeper now, only a few running halls, when the time comes, they will also maintain the order of the scene, serve tea to people, lead guests to the seat of this simple work, now there is nothing to clean up.
Su Bai is half of the owner here, they naturally know each other, hurry up to say hello, but Xiao Erniu is envious, and he feels that his current brother is really majestic! Su Bai asked Ran Tang to take out the curtain that he hadn't finished painting yesterday, took out his pen and ink and continued to paint, today he plans to finish the curtain, and then make some simple masks tomorrow, and then "Painted Skin" will be used. I have to scare Cheng Chumo's grandson to death, haha!
Erniu and Xiaobao saw Su Bai painting for the first time, their eyes widened, they were all obsessed, Erniu now feels that his brother is simply like a fairy, not only to let his father bring him to Chang'an to eat mutton every day, but also to paint such a big painting, and the painting is the same as the real one, that is, the house of this painting is a little weird, and it looks a little scary.
Su Bai asked the two runners to lead Erniu and Xiaobao to go around first, and he painted the curtain seriously, and after more than twenty minutes, Wang Fatzi came in a carriage, and when he saw Su Bai coming to paint the curtain so early, he sighed and said, "Why did you come so early today?" Su Bai didn't raise his head and said, "The academy is on vacation, how are the costumes you made?" Wang Fatzi came to Su Bai with a big belly to watch him draw, and said casually: "The size is all measured, there is a ten days and a half a month is about the same", Su Bai frowned and said: "No, it must be made within two days, others can be put away, and the related to "Painted Skin" must be made!" ”。
Wang Fatzi took a breath and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?" Isn't there still a month for us to open?,Today I made an appointment with Mr. Storyteller.,I made a voucher yesterday.,I'm waiting to do it according to the plan you said today.,Why are you still urging up the clothes now? ”。 Su Bai continued to paint the curtain, without raising his head, and said: "I invited a big man to come to the play, the agreed time is in three days, no, now it should be two days later, as long as he is satisfied, help us publicize it, in the future, we will not worry about the location on the second floor, no one will buy it, and someone will want to double it!" ”。
Wang Fatzi was shocked, he knew the pricing of the box on the second floor, it was already high enough, doubled? Wang Fatzi felt that his heart was beating a little fast, and asked in a trembling voice: "You, who did you invite?" ”。
Su Bai raised his head and leaked out two little white teeth and said with a smile: "The eldest son of Duke Lu Guo!" ”
