The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 90
[Chapter 90 Stage Play]
Immediately afterwards, in the theater, the faint sound of a woman crying could be heard.
Everyone in the audience couldn’t help but shudder.
Even the burly man felt a little panicked.
At this time, the scholar had already walked to the door, opened the door and went in. There was nothing except a dilapidated bed.
The scholar sighed and packed up.
Most of the audience present are regular customers of Goulan. Even if they have not watched “Nie Xiaoqian”, they have heard about it from Mr. Shu and know more or less the plot.
Seeing this scene, I immediately understood that the scholar was Ning Caichen.
At this time, I was going to Beijing to take the exam. Because housing prices in the city were so high, I had to live in a deserted suburb.
Soon, we will meet that female ghost Nie Xiaoqian!
Sure enough, Ning Caichen had just taken out the books from his bag and was going to stay up late to read.
On the other side of the stage, several beautiful women appeared, whispering.
The audience in the audience knew that these women were all female ghosts controlled by the old demon from Montenegro, so they couldn’t help but become a little nervous.
Although I know in my heart that these women are all actors, this is just a play.
But in the dark environment, people unconsciously insert themselves into it, as if they are immersed in it.
For a moment, the entire theater fell silent. Only the whispers of a few women echoed in the theater and lingered for a long time.
The performance on the stage continued.
Ning Caichen finished reading the book, blew out the candles, and lay on the bed, but could not fall asleep for a long time.
Suddenly hearing a low voice outside the door, he got up from the bed and walked out of the house.
When the audience saw this scene, they couldn’t help but hold their breath and concentrate.
Ning Caichen followed the sound, walked to the wall, and secretly looked at the women.
I saw several women surrounding a woman in her forties, discussing something quietly.
After walking a little further, I heard the woman say, “Why hasn’t Xiaoqian come for so long?”
One of the women said, “She’s almost here!”
The woman said, “Do you have any complaints against grandma?”
That woman said
He said, “I haven’t heard of it.”
The woman said, “That girl is not easy to get along with!”
Before she could finish her words, another twenty-eight-year-old woman walked onto the stage with a very beautiful appearance.
Everyone knows that
this beautiful woman is Nie Xiaoqian!
Women’s voices came from the stage.
Everyone looked up and saw her smiling and saying: “Don’t tell anyone behind your back. While the two of us were talking, the little goblin came quietly. Fortunately, she didn’t say anything about your shortcomings.”
Then she said: “Little lady” She is as beautiful as the person in the painting. If I were a man, I would be seduced by you.”
Nie Xiaoqian smiled and said, “If grandma doesn’t praise me, who else will say good things about me?”
Her voice was clear and sweet .
Beautiful.
The woman and Nie Xiaoqian didn’t know what they said again, but no one could hear clearly.
Before they knew it, they were engrossed in the show on stage.
An hour later, Ning Caichen walked to the wilderness and dug out Nie Xiaoqian’s bones under a dead tree.
Even though they knew the plot, when everyone saw the expressions of the corpse and Ning Caichen, their breaths couldn’t help but stagnate.
Just as they were looking at Ning Caichen intently, wanting to take a look, he saw Nie Xiaoqian’s reaction behind the body, but they didn’t want to, and the curtain suddenly fell.
Then, a familiar figure walked onto the stage and said in a powerful voice: “This is the end of the first episode of “Nie Xiaoqian”. Dear viewers, please exit in an orderly manner.”
Everyone was startled when they heard this.
The big man who had forced his way into the theater had a dazed look on his face, and he didn’t even react for a moment.
After a while, I realized that the show was over.
Having received a beating before, he grieved and wanted to denounce the show for being terrible.
But
no matter what, I can’t think of anything bad about this show.
In fact, this new way of drama almost made him immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.
There are no good singing songs, no exaggerated movements, just a few actors, using simple performances to present the contents of the book on the stage, which is so fascinating.
He was conquered by this stage play!
Everyone else had the same reaction. They were startled at first, then in a daze, and then with emotion.
What kind of culture can the guests in Goulan have? Most of them are ordinary people. Even if they express emotion, they can only say “good-looking”.
Apart from the fact that it looks good, there is nothing else I can say about it.
However, this was far beyond Old Man Sun’s imagination.
Seeing the judges off the stage immersed in the new show, his hanging heart finally fell to the ground.
There is nothing wrong with your decision.
While he breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn’t help but admire Fang Xiu, the young son of a well-known family.
Mr. Fang is really awesome!
The curtain has fallen and the actors have made their exit.
The audience under the stage was still a little unsatisfied.
The show ended and there was half a time to burn incense, but no one left their seats.
Several of them took out copper plates from their arms, threw them on the stage, and shouted: “Keep on with the performance! I’m just seeing the excitement, what’s this?”
“Ning Caichen saw Nie Xiaoqian’s body, what happened next? When
everyone saw this scene, they took out coins and threw them towards the stage.
This is a common practice in Goubao. Those storytellers or actors will stop when a program is over or at a critical moment. Only the spectators below will reward them, and then they will continue to perform.
This is very common in Goulanwa City. After all, the entrance fee is only ten cents, which is not enough to support a family.
Rewarding is the source of income for storytellers and actors. Guests who often hang out among them also understand the rules. They may curse a few words, but the rewards that should be given will still be given.
But theater is not a hook bar.
Naturally, the rules of hooking up bars are not applicable in the theater.
In the audience, Old Man Sun obviously did not expect that the audience would be so enthusiastic.
Compared with before, the copper coins given as rewards are not less generous.
But the rules set by Mr. Fang cannot be changed because of these copper plates.
After one show ends, you can only wait for the next show to start. No matter how much money you give, it will have no effect.
Therefore, he had no choice but to walk onto the stage and say as loudly as possible: “Dear readers, the show is over. If you still want to watch it again, you can come back next time.
There will be a notice at the box office for the specific time. If anything happens, , accidentally missed, there will be another scene, such as “
I am a little old, and I don’t have the strength to speak.”
After only saying a few words, my throat felt dry.
So, he said to Zhang San beside him: “You tell me the rest.”
Most of the audience below knew Old Man Sun and Zhang San. When they saw them coming on stage, they all became quiet and listened quietly.
With Zhang San’s previous experience, he was no longer as at a loss as before when meeting so many people.
He cleared his throat and said: “For example, in the first episode of “Nie Xiaoqian”, there will still be one at noon the day after tomorrow.”
