Chapter 1
The class leader brought more than 20 people from the platform to Nanjing, and rushed from Peiping to Nanjing day and night. It was the time of winter, and the few who were not yet formed were sent to the resting place to collect dry firewood, and their hands and feet were cracked. The child, bared beading blood beads.
There was a brave child who urged him to escape from the deep mountains. Among the remaining children, the elders were fifteen or sixteen years old, and the younger ones were seven or eight years old. Clutching his red hands and trembling, at last he took advantage of the time when the head teacher went to spend the night at someone else's house, and a few people made an appointment to hide in the mountains. The children who had become horns were warming their hands and singing by the kang stove, for fear that their time would be wasted. , and no one has time to take care of these hungry apprentices doing odd jobs.
It was quite smooth, except for the layer of frozen snow that was particularly cold to the feet, the others were not a problem. There were only four children in this group, who were sent to learn opera when they were young. , there is a whistling cold wind in my ears, I have escaped for about a stick of incense, but I still haven't found the east, west, north, south, my fiery heart has cooled down for a while, some people can't stand the cold, they start thinking about going back, at least to The class leader admits his mistake, at most he will be whipped with a cane, and there will be a few more scars. The child at the beginning is silent and silent, the oldest child starts to walk back, and the child at the beginning panicked, so he had to follow, and then left again. Banzhuxiang, the snow is heavy, but the road is more difficult to walk. The feet of the children are swollen like carrots, and they hum when they take a step.
I couldn't find the way, and several people passed out.
In the end, the Dongchuang incident happened. Seeing that the firewood was almost clean, the class leader didn’t see the children coming back, so he hurriedly went to the mountain to see if there were any figures, so he understood a little bit, took a few big ones to look for them, and left. About half a mile away, I saw a few people with their heads covered and lying down in the snow, so they dragged them back. These children woke up and found themselves in the house, and then saw the class master sitting and dozing, knowing that it was over. Sure enough, after a few more days, when they arrived in Nanjing City, they were severely beaten, and the child who had started was confessed, and the beating was the most severe. The others all looked at the window I giggled at this scene in the movie, this kid, it will be even more difficult to become a character in the future.
In the end, the child was ordered to move into a miscellaneous room from the side room where he lived, and the troupe master told them during the day that a nobleman who only loved watching operas gave up this house to the troupe. Laziness, if caught again, they will be kicked out of the troupe.
The nobleman who gave up his residence was surnamed Fang, and had an only son who had just returned from military studies in Germany a few years ago, and now he joined the 74th Army of the Party Army in high spirits. The commander of the army, he is suave, and now he and the No. 64 Army led by Liu Zhuoqing are resisting the Anguo Army in the northeast. The city of Nanjing is looking for fun, although it is winter, the sea near Nanjing is not as cold as in the north.
His name is Yanshu, which is very literary. With his slightly childish face, he is even more elegant, but this kind of person was sent to the battlefield again, and he is also a military expert. He was educated in a private school, learned the Four Books and Five Classics, and also familiarized himself with the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, and he also has a scholarly atmosphere inside.
The most prosperous place in the city is Shili Yangchang on No. 85 Street. The Yankees are also full of praise for this place and come here frequently. The girls here are the most punctual dancers, all of them are in their twenties and eight years, and there are many middle-aged mistresses among them. Yulan is one of them, but these are also She no longer shows her face in public, but lives alone in the boudoir, receiving those real rich and noble people, and they are often popular when they are young.
Fang Yanshu also often comes here, he can dance very well in Western dances, that Western European dancer is his perennial dance partner, the crowd with rich clothes and shadows, the attendants shuttled among them with wine trays, the nobles who talked and laughed, It is easy to be addicted here, once you fall into the gentle town here, if you are not willing, you will be in the abyss.
The theatrical troupe is busy practicing opera. It's been more than half a month, and it will be Miss Fang's sixteenth birthday soon. She followed her father and was obsessed with listening to the opera. Master Fang sent the troupe to prepare a mulberry garden party. Fang Qiutong's favorite the play.
But now something went wrong again, the voice of Quan Yingzi, who sang Danjiao Luofu, was hoarse, and he couldn't even make some slight sounds. Cheng Hua'an, who can go to battle, originally
The child who fled at the beginning was only under 16 years old, and the class leader only vaguely remembered that the child was sent on a winter night, wrapped in several layers of ebony-colored cotton cloth, showing a small face, which was full of a daughter's appearance, with a bent face The beautiful distant mountain eyebrows are really moving. It looks like a five or six-year-old child, asleep, and the golden lock on his neck is engraved with Cheng Lan's Hua'an, so he called him Cheng Hua'an.
To be honest, this child is also a good material, but he can't become a famous actor. He has been on the stage twice, and the response is really ugly. After all, he is still too dull and not as flexible as water. This is a big stage, and all the people who come are famous. Man, if this kid makes a mistake again, I'm afraid he won't even have a place to stay in the future.
There was no other way, Cheng Huaan went up instead, the class leader and him talked in the middle of the night in the room, knowing that his chance was gone, Quan Yingzi was anxious and angry. Generally speaking, it is said that Cheng Hua'an poisoned Quanying's voice and vicious heart.
Huaan ignored these words, just practiced his voice silently. He hadn't touched opera for a long time, so he restarted everything from the beginning according to his memory. He knew that he couldn't fail, so he locked himself in the room and practiced in front of the mirror all day long, and he didn't know it when the meal was over.
The banquet is approaching. On this day, the Fang family has a guest. It is a man with a handsome face and a straight military uniform. Fang Yanshu is also very happy. This person is Liu Zhuoqing from the northeast, The deputy commander of the army, Zhang Zuolin's army temporarily retired, and both the Northeast Republic and the Republic of China settled down temporarily, and it was approaching Miss Fang's birthday, so Zhuo Qing rushed back. The two were born in the same hospital. Brother, it’s just that Yanshu stayed abroad later, and the two temporarily lost contact. It’s really rare to meet again. Qiutong is also very close to this brother, and has been pestering him all the time. Listening to him talk about the Northeast War, Master Fang was smoking a big pipe, looking at the two people who were close, with smiles on his face, and Mrs. Fang also asked someone to serve some fruit.
Yan Shu brought Zhuo Qing to Shili Yangchang, and as soon as he entered the door, a nobleman greeted him, calling Fang Shaohao, Zhuo Qing was recommended by Yan Shu, went up to the second floor, Yan Shu snapped his fingers and called the proprietor Zhao Yingsheng, an old woman who is already over half a century old, still wears heavy makeup, and the thick smell of makeup and powder, Zhuo Qing doesn't like it.
Then came a few dancers in high-slit cheongsam, charming and charming, surrounded them into the private room, Zhuo Qing was poured with wine, Yan Shu hugged left and right, and it was full of spring.
Zhuo Qing suddenly broke away from the dancer's hand and rushed out the door. Yan Shu was a little sullen, and chased him out. Zhuo Qing's face was rosy, and he was obviously a little drunk. Yan Shu teased him, "So you can't drink so badly, why can't you drink like that?" "Zhuo Qing raised his head to look at him, but didn't speak, just walked back, continued to pour himself cup after cup, there was crystal liquid flowing down his neck, Yanshu waved his hand to let the dancer go out for some reason, and watched alone. Zhuoqing was drunk and fell to the ground, muttering in his mouth.
When they got home, it was already evening, Yan Shu carried Zhuo Qing upstairs, threw him on the bed, and took off his coat, shoes and socks for him, but he kept mumbling, suddenly he grabbed the hand of the person in front of him, pulled him closer, Yan Shu froze for a moment, staring blankly at his approaching face, there was still water vapor on his eyelashes, his cheeks were flushed, and he breathed out the smell of warm wine. In the silence, Yan Shu heard him say inarticulately, "Lan Poe, it would be great if I were...a woman, then I would have...a reason to marry you." After he finished speaking, he fell asleep and let go of his hands. Yan Shu straightened up slowly, The complicated thoughts in my heart are entangled together, becoming more and more chaotic.
