Chapter 151: Stirring Up Emotions
Fortunately, Gu Lan has already made preparations, and the Liu class master of the troupe has been studying how to sing the Three Kingdoms, and so far, he has written several excerpts, which are usually only performed in Xiaolongkan, and every performance can receive rave reviews.
But now is not the time to call the Three Kingdoms debut, and now in this situation, it should also be called the Water Margin.
Therefore, as soon as he received the task, Liu Banzhu began to fight at night again.
It has been three months since his family moved to Xiaolongkan, and these three months have been like a dream for their family.
The only grandson, Xiaodouzi, no longer has to sleep with them, and now he can live in a tiled house that can shelter him from the wind and rain, go to a spacious and bright private school to study, and make friends around him are all good children.
Besides, the rest of their family, the son doesn't want to sing, because of what happened before, he hates singing, but life is not child's play, if it is not singing, what does the family rely on to fill their stomachs?
Therefore, once he had the opportunity not to contact singing, Liu Qing, the son of Liu's class master, immediately chose another career.
Because he has a good skin, he was bullied when he was young, and he is not good at socializing, but now, he has the opportunity to get away from the opera industry, and wandered around all walks of life in the village for a long time, but he still can't find a goal.
In the end, I listened to people read stories in front of the display board at the entrance of the village, and read the Three Kingdoms and read the Water Margin, until one day, Liu Banzhu followed his grandson to learn the simplified Chinese characters made by Gu Lan, while studying the Three Kingdoms, humming and singing to figure out how to sing to achieve better results.
As soon as he turned around, he saw his son squatting in front of his feet, and his face stopped talking.
Liu Banzhu saw some clues, his son said that he didn't want to sing, so he let his son not sing, everyone said that he loved his grandson, but in fact, he felt the most guilty about this son.
"What's wrong? Why did you come back today? Liu said while taking back the drama text, he thought that since his son didn't want to sing, he must hate the past, usually his son is at home, he also tries to study these in the study, today's sun is just right, so he thought about drinking tea and singing under the tree, but he didn't expect his son to come back suddenly.
Class Master Liu was afraid of annoying him with sad things, so he simply put away his things.
Unexpectedly, he was grabbed by his son.
Liu looked at his son in surprise.
Liu Qing hesitated for a moment before saying, "Dad, I still want to follow you, but I don't want to sing, I want to write lyrics." ”
Liu Qing knows what his father has been doing, there are books on the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin at home, all of which were sent to him by the village, usually Liu Banzhu takes his grandson to read these stories, and he also listens to them, but he has not said them because of his face.
His father is writing lyrics, and he naturally knows it, but what can he do if he knows?
He doesn't like to sing.
But when he was really able to get out of opera, he didn't know what he could do.
Every day when he listens to the play in front of the exhibition board, in fact, he can't help but think in his heart, how to sing this part and how to adapt it.
Liu looked at his son with satisfaction, he lowered his head, was silent for a moment, did not say anything, did not ridicule, just silently took out the texts again, found a stool for his son, and gave him half of the place.
"If you think about it, if you want to do it, you will do it seriously and treat it as a big thing."
"Mrs. Gu in the village told me, she said that in this world, all the industries and the best in the world are all based on their own ability and talent to eat, why are we inferior to those who eat this bowl of Baijia rice?"
"It should not be us who are inferior, it should be the landlords who look down on the working people!"
Liu Banzhu didn't know what a landlord was, but this did not affect his words to be generous and powerful.
Liu Qing nodded approvingly, "Dad, I know." ”
The father and son have worked together for many years and have their own understanding of opera, and now they are working together, which is much faster than the progress of Liu Banzhu alone.
Soon, Liu handed over the plays he had written to the disciples he had written, and then returned to his old profession and took the troupe to perform in various villages.
He sang the Three Kingdoms, sang the Water Margin, and during the interval, he received a new task from Gu Lan, to perform a play called "The White-Haired Girl".
What kind of play is this white-haired girl? At first, Liu was not clear, but when he finished watching this play, he couldn't wait to eat Huang Shiren's meat raw.
"What an animal! Even jackals, tigers and leopards are better than this animal! ”
The story of the white-haired girl was widely spread in the previous life, and I don't know that the poor people who were oppressed by the landlords at that time were intense, and what Xi'er's family experienced is universally representative.
The family is oppressed by the landlord, it is difficult to live, and it is also oppressed by soldiers and bandits, how sad it is to be this day, not to mention that there is a Huang Shiren watching from the side!
Huang Shiren forced Xi'er and forced her to sell herself, a good girl lost her innocence, her parents were forced to die, and even she fled into the mountains and became a white-haired girl who was neither human nor beast.
When Gu Lan gave Liu Banzhu the story, she deliberately modified some of the original background, integrated the story into the current environment, and modified the original ending.
The original ending was that Xi'er's love came back as a soldier, killed this group of bastards, overthrew the landlord, and successfully restored humanity under his careful care.
And Gu Lan didn't write such an ending, she only wrote that the ending was that Xi'er became a white-haired girl and drank blood in the mountains, who could save her?
This question was asked to her countless times, but Gu Lan never told him the answer.
As soon as the white-haired girl was staged, it attracted countless people to watch, and everyone cried or laughed with the ups and downs of the plot, and some people even rushed to the stage on the spot to beat Huang Shiren, but fortunately they were stopped by Gu Lan, who had been prepared.
In the end, knowing that Xi'er had transformed into a white-haired girl and drank blood in the mountains, everyone's mentality collapsed.
"Who can save Xi'er?"
The people spread the word of mouth, and they all cared about the fate of the same character, even if this person was just a character in the story and did not exist in life.
But who can say that they are not Xi'er?
Nowadays, I don't know how many people in Jingguo are living in such pain, they endure heavy taxes and can't resist, and there are big machines like families in the local area waiting for the moment when natural and man-made disasters come, giving them a painful blow.
Where are these children sold?
Haven't you been bought by these families and become their unspeakable slaves?
Aren't these children Xi'er?
Aren't they Yang Bailao?
Aren't these families Huang Shiren!
More and more people are realizing what this tragic story and their lives have in common.
That's one word: miserable!
