Chapter 29: Camouflage
Lin Jin, who was encouraged by Zihao to walk out of the study, heard the sound of silk strings coming from the backyard, looked at the sound, and asked with a smile: "Which team sent this?" ”
Zihao hurriedly replied: "It is the filial piety of the Li family, a salt merchant." It is said that the corners in it were all taken to several places by the master in the opera garden, carefully selected, bought back at a large price, and carefully trained for three years before becoming a teacher. Not long ago, at the year-end guild of salt merchants, he appeared on the stage for the first time and won a full house. The Li family heard that Mrs. Gu likes to listen to operas, so they specially sent them to Mrs. Gu to sing a few folds. ”
The whole Yangzhou city knows that Aunt Lin not only loves to listen to operas, but also likes the "ventriloquism" in the hundred operas, when Jia Min was still there, although Aunt Lin was Lin Ruhai's aunt, but because she was still the mother of her second room, these salt merchants still had some scruples, and the action was not too big, but after Jia Min passed away, the action of currying favor was blatant.
Compared with the unknown preferences of other people in the Lin family, Aunt Lin likes to listen to operas and enjoy ventriloquist performances, which is placed on the bright side, so it is easiest to start with her, so all kinds of opera troupes and various ventriloquist artists continue to send them to the house.
Seeing Lin Jin walking quickly towards the Cuiwei Pavilion where Aunt Lin lived, Zi Mo shook his head imperceptibly, revealing a rather sinister smile, and said secretly in his heart, he knew that this would be the case. It is said outside that Mrs. Gu likes to listen to operas and ventriloquist performances, but in fact, her own uncle will not let her much. It's just that it's well hidden, unlike Mrs. Gu, who hasn't been known by outsiders.
Seeing Lin Jin striding over, Aunt Lin, who was listening to the play across the Water Pavilion, beckoned to her and said with a smile: "Come, Brother Jin, come here, now this Hall of Eternal Life is singing to the point of wonderful, you listen, how well the crown student who plays Emperor Tang Ming sings." ”
Lin Jin sat down next to Aunt Lin, she was not interested in the performance in the hall, there was no way, she herself was not interested in the opera industry, and she had listened to the current performance of "The Palace of Eternal Life" hundreds of times, and she was about to vomit, so she was really in no mood to appreciate it.
The little girl next to her, Zihao, didn't see her like this, if she did, she would know that his previous conclusion was wrong, and his uncle actually didn't like to listen to dramas.
With patience, I finally finished singing in the play. Aunt Lin called the two little actors who played Tang Minghuang and Yang Guifei over, and while ordering people to give rewards, she asked them about the way they used their voices when singing, the exchange of large and small voices, the conversion of virtual voices, and the tricks of vocal position and luck in the voice.
If the person asking is a peer, it is obviously impossible for these two little actors to answer, but it is Aunt Lin, the wife of a wealthy family, who is asking them, and it is obviously impossible to compete with them for jobs, so they are very detailed, and even some of the secret skills of the ancestors are said.
Aunt Lin was obviously very interested in this aspect, and even did not hesitate to try it herself, according to the method they said, changed her voice, learned a few words, although she didn't sing, but Bai Kou can still learn it, and after the performance is over, they will point out the shortcomings, and then change it until it is more perfect.
Seeing Aunt Lin's energetic appearance, the little actors who came to sing didn't understand her fetish, but after all, it didn't hurt, besides, Aunt Lin gave a relatively generous reward, so they didn't take it seriously, and after thanking Aunt Lin and Lin Jin, they withdrew.
"Do you understand?" As soon as the people left, Aunt Lin withdrew from the people serving around her and asked Lin Jin with a straight face.
Lin Jin nodded hurriedly, "I understand what I heard, but if I really want to say it, I may have to practice in private, after all, there is still a gap between listening and really knowing." ”
Aunt Lin sighed and said, "It's okay, there are still a few years before you reach the voice change period." ”
