Chapter 14 Nanyin Singing, Slang Fun Talk
With a "start", the audience boiled.
In the sound of "squeak" chairs moving, everyone excitedly began to sit in rows.
The 80-square-meter hall is slightly crowded with nearly 60 people, but it can easily sit down with a slight adjustment of the layout.
Especially Deng Bo's huge recliner is no different from the bed, the back of the chair is so closed, and the remaining space can seat three more people......
If you want to say who is the most unhappy here, it is only Chu Qianyin's children's shoes with a sad face.
She was caught by her grandfather, and she was unwell in a large group of old men and old ladies.
"Now, you bring this."
Chu Qianyin handed over a black wireless radio bee and said weakly.
"So professional?"
Su Bai took it with a smile, glanced at it and found that it had been turned on, and it was clamped on the round neck of the T-shirt.
"Of course!"
Chu Qianyin said a little arrogantly: "Try to say a few words." ”
Su Bai opened his mouth and sang: "Nine sisters and nine sisters, cute sisters, cute sisters, nine sisters and nine sisters, red buds, red buds~"
"Poof!"
"Haha, what kind of ghost song are you singing!"
Chu Qianyin was instantly amused, and she couldn't stop the sound of "whoop" when she raised her hand to cover her mouth, and after a coquettish sentence, she quietly glanced at Su Bai, and her little face turned into a "red bud" directly......
What kind of ghost song, can the ninth sister become the four beauties in the Chinese music scene all because of this song...... Su Baile muttered in his heart, and asked with a smile, "How is it, is it okay?" ”
"Hey, this song is so ugly."
"I'm asking if I can radio normally......"
“!!!”
“...... OK. ”
After Chu Qianyin listened to it, she still couldn't help but want to laugh, feeling that this big brother was not so respectful, but very approachable, so she leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "Hey, wait a minute, you cough cough, wait a minute, can you sing that Nanyin faster, finish work early." ”
"No, it's been 3 hours since then, and you're 'born' by yourself!" Su Bai said with a smile.
The term "Zhisheng" was originally a theatrical term. Because the opera troupe must be performed live, the sudden change on the spot is unpredictable. Only rely on actors to respond on the spot.
Persistence is to control, birth, is vitality, and together, it is the meaning of "not letting go of the opportunity of a glimmer of vitality", and it is extended to the expression of wit.
"Huh? Three! Three hours? ”
Chu Qianyin's brain was buzzing, and her little face collapsed at once, if you want to listen to that kind of song for three hours, you will collapse when you think about it, what kind of life is still clinging, it is better to let me die directly......
Su Bai shrugged his shoulders, I can't help you.
Traditional folk music, most of them are monotonous, the rhythm is slow, the singing is obscure, and there are various dialect slang, you may not be able to understand what is being sung when you look at the words, and it is really difficult for young people to listen to it, which is no way.
Su Bai himself couldn't listen to it when he was a child, and he couldn't understand why someone was obsessed with such a dull thing, so he could understand Chu Qianyin's bad mood at the moment.
However, if you learn to appreciate, the aesthetics are in place, and the mood is in place, you will find out how addictive our traditional opera is, as long as you listen to it quietly, you can't escape.
In front of you, isn't there a large number of super fans who fall into the pit and can't get out?
In just two minutes, the TV room has been adjusted again, and it has nothing to do with the TV at all.
Even the leisurely teahouse style just now seems to have instantly turned into a serious classroom style, with Su Bai's "podium" in front of him, and the students sitting neatly and neatly below.
Sitting in front of everyone's eager eyes, Su Bai couldn't help but wipe a handful of sweat, and suddenly felt that he was not singing for leisure and entertainment, it was clearly in the classroom of the "University for the Elderly"!
"Well, we can develop this project in the future......" Su Baile thought hehehe.
Everyone couldn't wait, Su Bai didn't ink, and after seeing that they were all ready, he lifted the red cloth covered with the guzheng on the table, picked up the clapper and hit it a few times, and directly came to Duan Zhouxing's classmate Wei Xiaobao's opening remarks about the ancients:
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming so close and sitting so straight to listen to my song, it's so face-saving, the song I'm going to sing today is ......"
After a while, the old people shouted excitedly in unison: "Dishui Nanyin!" ”
"Yes, it looks like everyone is here for this."
This time, without waiting for everyone to speak, Su Bai immediately imitated Deng Bo's tone and asked himself: "Pick!" Definitely, didn't you come to listen to Nanyin, did you come to listen to you sing English songs? ”
"Poof!"
"Hahahaha!"
Suddenly, the audience burst into laughter.
Everyone clutched their stomachs and slapped their thighs, and even Dumber himself couldn't help but almost fall to the ground with laughter.
Because Su Bai's "imitation" just now cannot be said to be imitation, and even the word "vivid" is not appropriate enough, the tone and tone of the voice are exactly the same!
If everyone hadn't watched him intently, they would have 100% thought it was Dumber talking.
For example, the cute ninth sister classmate who had just deserted was stunned after reacting, and couldn't help but raise her head and cover her mouth and laugh loudly, suddenly feeling that she was not so boring......
A little weird interactive interaction, the atmosphere is lively.
"I think everyone should know that our show is called Lingnan Old Voices, so it is dedicated to singing some old things that no one has listened to.
"And because these songs are so old that no one has heard them, so before we start singing, I want everyone to read the lyrics, otherwise there will be a lot of words that you won't understand."
Su Bai said as he pulled down a piece of home movie curtain, turned on the projector, and prepared to play the lyrics PPT prepared in advance last night.
At this time, Deng Bo, who had just finished being ridiculed, was not convinced, and said loudly: "How is it possible, as long as it is Cantonese vernacular, we will definitely be able to understand it!" ”
"yes, there's no need, don't we all understand the song you sang yesterday?"
"Hey, don't talk about the Dishui Nanyin sung in a flat tone, we have all listened to a lot of big operas sung in the official dialect of the theater."
At the same time, several elderly people also chimed in.
After speaking Cantonese all my life and listening to opera all my life, can there be words that we can't understand?
Su Bai smiled, it seems that today's audience is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, many 24K pure drama fans.
The earliest Cantonese opera was sung in Zhongzhou rhyme, and the Guilin official dialect belonging to the northern dialect was used in Nianbai, but the Cantonese opera artists did not learn authentically, so it became the "official dialect" mixed with "white" in the "official language".
As a result, a post-break phrase was derived: "The official dialect of the opera theatre - neither salty nor light", which means that Cantonese opera is sung and recited in the official dialect of the theatre, which is neither the official dialect nor the vernacular of Cantonese, and it is difficult to define which dialect it is.
Nowadays, there are still many official dialects in the daily language of Cantonese, such as the "Ko Lao Ye" often said by the elderly, which is actually the "annoying also" in the official dialect of the theater.
"Ha, don't be too confident, a lot of colloquialisms and slang are used every day, but we don't necessarily know how they came about."
Su Bai took out a one-yuan bill from his pocket, shook it, and then said seriously: "Let me ask you a question, what do we usually call 'a mosquito chicken' in the vernacular?" ”
Suddenly, the audience was stunned.
Deng Bo scratched his head: "yes, how do we usually call a mosquito chicken?" ”
A few seconds later, Chu Qianyin glanced at the people who were deep in thought, and couldn't help laughing out loud, and said loudly: "You guys are fooled, a mosquito chicken, in the vernacular, it's called a mosquito chicken!" ”
“......”
Everyone was stunned again, and now they finally reacted.
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
Morning glory looking for cows, instantly all laughing.
It can only be said that Su Bai is too bad, and everyone is too upright, so they can't turn around at all.
"Poof, if you want to say that my sister reacts quickly, a mosquito chicken, isn't it called a mosquito chicken, it's really, the person who asked this question has a brain problem."
Su Bai couldn't help laughing, and after complaining about himself, he said, "Okay, let's be serious, does anyone know why we call one yuan a mosquito chicken?" ”
"Because a mosquito can call a chicken!"
Deng Bo raised his hand to answer, and immediately burst into laughter.
"Uncle Deng, you seem to be familiar with this, veteran?"
Su Bai teased, and said: "There is indeed such a saying, and it is widely spread, saying that in the past, if you want to drink flower wine, you don't need to go to the Qinglou, you only need to go to a restaurant, first write a piece of flower paper, and designate a girl in the Qinglou, and then, ask a restaurant guy to run errands and take it to the Qinglou, and the girl will come over when she receives the invitation, and the guy's errand fee is a penny, that is, a penny called a chicken, and then simply called one yuan a mosquito chicken." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was another very hearty laughter in the audience, Chu Qianyin's face turned red, and Su Bai raised his hand to suppress the voice, and continued:
"But! Don't get excited, you know that this origin statement is false as soon as you hear it, it's too far-fetched, it's not so cheap Okay, about the origin of the name 'Yiwen chicken', it is more appropriate and reasonable to say that it is from the inflow of Mexican silver dollars at the end of the Qing Dynasty.
"At that time, Mexico's silver yuan flowed into our country in large quantities through Bacheng, because of its good fineness, a silver yuan weighed seven coins and two cents, and the silver content was as high as 9 percent, becoming one of the main circulating currencies at that time.
"In the heyday of circulation, Xuantong 2 years of statistics, the country's 1.1 billion foreign silver yuan, of which the Mexican silver dollar accounted for one-third, because the Mexican silver dollar was cast with an eagle, so the humorous Cantonese people jokingly called the eagle 'chicken', so called a silver coin to make 'a chicken'.
"So! This chicken is not the other chicken, I hope you don't make a mistake, so that we are big foodies and people are all female ticket customers. ”
As he spoke, Su Bai pointed to the nine sisters' shoes in the middle, and joked: "Circle up, high school history questions, you have to take the test." ”
"Haha!"
"Hahaha!"
The old people laughed heartily, listened to Su Bai's witty quotations and classics, and talked about it eloquently, which was so funny that their palms were swollen for a while.
"Okay, what do I mean by giving this example, I want to tell you that we already know a lot of slang and colloquialisms that we still use.
"And those old colloquialisms and slang that no one says anymore, even if you can understand the words and understand the sound, if you don't understand the meaning, the fun of listening to the music will be less than half."
Quan Bo, who was sitting in the back row, kept nodding, it was true!
If you don't understand, that mosquito chicken is a dollar, if you understand it, and then listen to this word, you can feel that it may be an era.
Even Chu Qianyin thought so, and even couldn't help but think, if people in 10,000 years later excavated a sentence of "YYDS", how would they collapse?
At this time, Su Bai finally turned back to the topic, pointed to the lyrics on the curtain and said: "Then let's get down to business, everyone look here, the first track we are going to sing today, male burning clothes!" ”
