Chapter 85: Five surnames, seven families, and four sons
"Do you want me to take a look? haha......"
The person opposite Li Gongzi laughed, "It seems that Li Liu, you kid, are quite confident in the next performance, I want to see what 'good' is waiting for us ......"
When Li Gongzi heard this, he didn't get angry, he still smiled, and said with a little smugness: "Lu Sixteen, let me tell you the truth, I don't know what 'good' is below, I don't know ......"
"Oh, what do you say?" the son, who was called Lu Sixteen, was surprised, "Isn't this your business? Why don't you know yet?"
"Dehelou is indeed mine, but the acting troupe is not mine, I said that it is a famous Peking Opera class invited from Chang'an, and there is no lie...... You don't know how much effort I put into inviting them, don't look at it as a troupe, with a big temper, even I built De and Lou, people directly asked that it must be built according to the French style they gave, otherwise, people will not come ......at all."
"That's not to say, it's about to open, I said go and see their rehearsals, people don't let it at all, or say that if you can't make a sensation in Zhenzhou, you'd rather not take a penny, and you didn't let me watch it, do you say it's amazing?"
Listening to Li Gongzi's words, Lu Sixteen was suddenly speechless.
"So arrogant?"
"You also know, our brother is alive, when did I suffer this, I was going to lose my temper, but after thinking about it, since they dare to be so arrogant, it is estimated that they have some real talents, I don't watch it, I don't watch it, endure it for a few days, and I also have a thought, no, until now, I don't know how to act......"
"Hehe, Li Liu, this is not like you, aren't you afraid that they will smash up and completely mess up your reputation as Dehelou?"
"The performance is smashed?" Li Gongzi snorted coldly, "Dehelou is only 100,000 yuan, it's a big deal that I demolish it!" However, if their troupe dares to play for me, it won't be solved with money......
When Lu Sixteen heard this, he didn't speak, he raised his thumb and did not hide the schadenfreude on his face.
The other man in blue next to him spoke.
"Well, I thought I could see something good today, but what happened, alas...... I originally wanted to distract myself, but it seems that the result is worrying......"
Li Gongzi smiled when he heard this, "Cui Qi, my good brother, I know that your family has been going on a lot recently, and I am also kind, I will take you out to relax, if they mess up in a while, I will let you see the living people, wouldn't it be a good show?"
When the blue-clothed man called Cui Qi heard this, he hugged his fists, but shook his head, obviously not interested in the living people.
Seeing this, Li Gongzi smiled and said:
"Don't be too discouraged...... This troupe really has some ideas, isn't it Obon today, although I haven't seen their rehearsals, but I've heard that they said they want to perform some repertoire for the festival, to be honest, I really don't know what kind of repertoire is for Obon, no, I'm looking forward to it......"
Before Cui Qigongzi spoke, a black-clothed boy who had been silent in the box spoke, and there was still some unstoppable posture.
"I think this troupe may surprise us......"
"Oh?" this even Li Gongzi was surprised, "What is Brother Zheng's opinion?"
The man in black opened the folding fan with a "snap", shook it twice, and then said unhurriedly: "As the so-called seeing the subtleties, looking at the construction of Dehe Building, and then looking at these small details of Dehe Building, I think this opera troupe has real talent and learning......
"Not to mention anything else, it's the set of tables and stools around us, the style is novel, it seems simple, but it makes people very comfortable, and I can't help but want to relax when I sit here......"
"Look at this tea again, the tea ceremony is simplified, but there are infinite flavors contained in it, which is really in line with the truth of heaven and earth......"
"Then, let's take a look at the construction of the second-floor box, after pushing open the small window, we can talk about the first floor at a glance, and most importantly, we can also talk about the changes on the stage in my eyes, to be honest, even if I am asked to design, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve such an effect, it seems that this troupe, but it is not simple......"
"Haha...... Brother Zheng's high opinion...... Haha......"
Li Gongzi snorted, and continued to turn around and chat with the two of them, no longer paying attention to this Zheng Gongzi, as for Lu Sixteen and Cui Qi, they didn't answer this Zheng Gongzi's words at all.
Zheng Gongzi didn't think it was wrong, as if he had long been accustomed to this kind of treatment, just sipped tea, shook the folding fan slowly, stopped talking, and waited for the show to begin.
Obviously, the relationship between the three sons in the box and Li Gongzi is close and estranged.
The most recent should be that Lu Sixteen Gongzi, and Li Sirui have a good conversation, speaking very casually, it doesn't sound like a son of a family at all, but like a scholar from a small family, and secondly, it is the seventh son of Cui, although he is not as familiar as Lu Sixteen, but he also has a kind of affection in his words, and that Zheng Gongzi is far away, even the most basic title also reveals a kind of alienation.
But there is no way around it.
The four sons in the box are all very talented, they are all from five surnames and seven families!
Needless to say, Li Gongzi is the descendant of the Li family of Zhao County.
Lu Sixteen is a descendant of Fan Yang's Lu family.
Cui Qi is the third generation of the seventh son of the Boling Cui family, and now he is responsible for the exchange of wealth and goods in the family, although it is not as expensive as those of the Cui family who have entered the official career, but it is also a high power.
As for Zheng Gongzi, his original name is Zheng Jing, and he was also born in Yingyang Zheng, one of the five surnames and seven families, and it is not bad to say that it is a descendant, but the experience of this Zheng Jing Gongzi is relatively special, he is an illegitimate son, and he is the result of the chaos of the previous generation of Zheng's descendants after drinking, and he also grew up outside until he was ten years old before recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors, it is really difficult for people to see him as the descendant of the Zheng family.
It is precisely because of the special experience of Zheng Jinggongzi that Li Sirui and other sons have been lukewarm to him.
Fortunately, Zheng Gongzi is also used to these.
The four sons talked and laughed, waiting for the show to start.
Before the official start, it was still the old rule, jumping the spirit officer, jumping the God of Wealth, and jumping the official.
Subsequently, as the head of Guihe's class, Liu Puhe came to power.
first hugged his fists to the audience, and then said loudly:
"Thank you for your appreciation, our Guihe class is grateful! No more gossip, today is the Obon Festival, our Guihe class specially prepared a small drama to celebrate the festival, and when this small drama is finished, it will be the official big play, everyone, please take your eyes......"
"Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers!"
