Looking at Pearl Rolling Blinds from afar

Soon, all kinds of bad news spread in the newspapers, "Mu Guiying has not yet taken command, Pearl Buck has lost her light", "Pearl Buck has sang her voice, and her stage career is over", the newspapers were overwhelming, I bought a lot and burned them all.

For a long time after that, I never saw Shang Junqiu on stage.When I went to the Wufu class and saw Mr. Wang Yuqing, he asked me with an inexplicable face: "What's wrong with you two?"

"It's nothing, it's just a little conflict, where is Junqiu?"

"His voice is broken, and he has been resting for a few days. I see him holding the script and reading it every day. I don't know what he is studying."

"He's mad at me."

"What's the anger between you?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I sang "Romance of the West Chamber" and he lost his appetite."

"What about the sesame and mung beans?" Mr. Wang shouted to the back room after finishing speaking, "Jun Qiu, come out!"

When I saw him again, his face was full of haggardness, and the young man who once sprinkled his face with youth and passion suddenly disappeared.

He came out of the back room slowly. When he saw me, he was surprised at first, but he quickly hid his expression and lowered his head silently.

"I know about the two of you. In those few days, you were crying like a woman just because of such a trivial matter?" Mr. Wang Yuqing said admonishingly.

"Master, this disciple realizes his mistake." Shang Junqiu said in a low voice.

"Liancheng is not good at singing. I have told him many times in front of you, but he is Boss Shen's son after all, and he is not too bad. Why doesn't Master despise you now, but now he despises you."

"Master..."

"Listen to me first, Liancheng hasn't graduated yet, and you are also studying drama with me. After all, you can be regarded as a pair of brothers. How can brothers tear each other down?" Mr. Wang was very angry when he spoke. .

I hurried over to help my husband give me a thump on the back and said: "Master, calm down, we will settle our affairs by ourselves, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Looking at this, Jun Qiu's voice is also hoarse, and he can't continue singing. It's not a good sign for us to fall down when we are young."

"Maybe there are other reasons? If Keban's food is not catchy, he may also get angry." I said with a smile, and came to Shang Junqiu's side again, put my hand on his shoulder and said, "I see junior brother Go live at my house, the kang in the troupe is too hot."

Shang Junqiu made a slight move, then gave me another look, but didn't say anything.

"Then you can go, raise it early, come back to sing opera early, and I will make up for you when I get home."

"Thank you Master, I'll take Jun Qiu home now to mend it."

I took Shang Junqiu's hand and walked out of Keban's compound. At that moment, I just felt that his hand was very cold, so cold that it seeped into my bone marrow.I don't know how he got here these days, but I know it must not be easy for him.

When he walked out of the courtyard, he broke away from my hand, "Do you dare to tell Master the truth?"

"I dare not." I said with a smile.

"Come back with me, let's not talk about Fengyue, just talk about drama, just like in the past."

"I can't go back, you ruined my memory into a mess."

"I apologize. I made a mistake, so I'll change it. Give me a chance, let's be friends again."

"I can't be friends, I feel awkward when I see you."

"Then continue to be senior brother, my senior brother, your senior brother. Don't be so fussy about two big men." After I finished speaking, I put my hand on his shoulder again.

"Don't go to the hall in the future, I'm afraid you will be ruined there."

"Okay." I looked at him with a smile.

He changed into a serious face and said: "Don't look at me, I will marry a wife in the future."

I leaned over and said with a smirk, "If you want a child, I will give birth to you."

"You're disgusting, I'll go find Master."

"Don't, don't, don't." I hurriedly pulled him back, "Master is getting old, just let him rest easy."

"It's obvious that you are not worried."

"Okay, I'm not worried. I'll change my past. I'll be a decent person from now on. Please come to my house and supervise me, junior brother."

Shang Junqiu did not move back to the wing room of my house in the end, he is such a stubborn guy.Not long after, we drank tea once more and had some frank conversation.I said that I will not miss him and other men in this world in love, I just want to continue to be friends with him, he said that he reacted a little too much last time, and said that he will not interfere with my private life again, But it's better not to go to a place like Tangzi, he thinks the people there are a little perverted, and bluntly said that I must also be infected with the bad habits there to say those abrupt things to him.In the end, he said that I really helped him a lot, and he will never forget it.

What can I say?I can only say that what he said is all right, but I know that I still like him in my heart.

We finally reconciled slowly, and I am very grateful for it.

Shang Junqiu's voice finally recovered, and his voice-changing period has almost passed by this time. Whether it is width or height, his accent has reached a new height.In this way, Pearl Buck was revived, and released a brighter color on the stage.

He continues to accept operas, sing operas, take various classes, sing various roles, walk various steps, and dance various dances. Even if it is a small role, he can still perform a bit of a trick.The third card, the second card, it only took him more than two years to sit on the top card Huadan of the Wufu Troupe.

Until one day, Master Wang Yuqing called him to his side and said, "You have become a Huadan." Shang Junqiu reluctantly left the Wufu Troupe Club. Symbolically kowtowing to the patriarch a few times, he was considered a graduate.

After leaving the Wufu troupe, Shang Junqiu took Sun Dixian's "Chun Xi troupe" first.At that time, we had to bring our own outfits when we were singing operas. In order to buy some decent outfits, we took a lot of painstaking efforts. In the end, we made a bunch of flowers, one with flower pleats, one with green pleats, and one with green pleats. A phoenix cloak, a water skirt, and a peony back.I gave him a pearl headband that I treasured, and Shang Junqiu took that exquisite and beautiful headband and turned it over to look at it, his eyes were full of joy.I took the pearl headband and put it on his head, looked at it carefully and said: "When you use it in the future, you should wear this. I can't be by your side every day, but it can."

"Little third master's old illness has relapsed, hasn't he?"

Hearing this, we both laughed.Liking is indeed a kind of disease, a kind of heart disease, I think I can't cure it.

In that team full of big names, Shang Junqiu chose to continue playing tricks.I told him that his strength can completely compete for three cards, and he said: "That's not important. Here, I can learn opera with those famous actors in an open and honest manner."

I don't think there is much difference between what Shang Junqiu sang and those famous actors. What he lacks may be opportunities.Later, I took him to visit Feng Erye, a famous Huadan family, and Feng Erye took him under his knees without hesitation, and Shang Junqiu was ecstatic about it.

Under the guidance of Second Master Feng, Shang Junqiu became more proficient in singing, reading, acting, and playing. After only one year, he was recommended by Second Master Feng to be a "second card" in the Chunxi Class.As for the top card in the Chunxi class, it was Gu Tongshan, who was red and purple at the time.

Although I also love to watch Gu Tongshan's Huadan, but I prefer to watch Shang Junqiu's Huadan. Shang Junqiu is the number one Huadan in my heart, and I hope he can become the number one in everyone's heart.However, if you want to be the top card, in addition to your own strength, you must also have some luck. You must have your own script, and you must have your own specialty. I am determined to spend some time on this.

In the west city of Peiping lived one of the most famous fanciers in the capital. He said he was a fancier, but in fact, he had already entered the business of Liyuan.This fancier used to be a clerk in a certain mansion in the former Qing Dynasty. Later, he lost his job because of the revolution, so he simply broke into Liyuan according to his preferences. He is Zhang Wenshan and Zhang Wuye, who are rumored to have compiled fifteen golden scripts. .

Zhang Wuye has always been proud of his talents, and he is an unscrupulous wit and weirdo. It is rumored that his greatest hobby is raising thrushes, and the second is changing scripts.That day, I visited with Shang Junqiu and brought a thrush carefully selected from the bird market.

Mr. Zhang Wu didn't care when he saw the two of us at first, but when he saw the thrush, his eyes lit up immediately.He held up the cage and carefully looked at it, and then said full of praise: "This bird is beautiful, with a big square head, green eyes, and beef tendon feet. It must be a good material." He whistled twice at the bird to tease him. Said: "Come on, call five masters twice."

The thrush seemed to understand the words of the human, and it actually barked twice tactfully.

"This bird has a good temper and is easy to handle." Fifth Master looked at the bird with a wide smile and praised.

After a while, Zhang Wuye turned around and looked at Shang Junqiu and me who had been left aside by him all the time, and said, "Bring such a good bird, is there anything you want from me?"

"To tell you the truth, Lord Wu, we are here this time to ask for a script." Shang Junqiu said respectfully.

"Who is your master?"

"My master in the Wufu class is Wang Yuqing. After graduating from the department, I took part in the Chunxi class to sing opera. Now I am learning opera from Feng Erye."

"What can I learn from Feng Ermazi, I can sing better than him." Zhang Wuye said arrogantly again.

"It's been heard for a long time that Wu Ye's old students are the best in the Liyuan, but the disciple is a singer."

"Hua Dan." Only then did Zhang Wuye raise his head and look at Shang Junqiu for a while, "The appearance is not bad, and the appearance should not be too bad. Sing a few lines for me."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but think of what Wu Ye said to Huamei just now. Although it felt a little awkward, I could only choose to endure it. There was no other way. He was just amazing, and I didn't even graduate from elementary school.

Chapter 8

Shang Junqiu sang Wang Baochuan in "Red Maned Horse", "Who is the red star in the night dream, it must be Hualang, Cailou..."

"Enough, enough." Zhang Wuye said impatiently, "Singing is not bad, practice hard, after three to five years, it will not be worse than Mei Lanfang and the others."

"Thank you, Fifth Master, for your appreciation."

Zhang Wuye looked at Huamei, then at Shang Junqiu and said, "As for this script, I have one at hand, but I don't know if you dare to sing it."

"May I ask what book it is?"

"Boss Tan's "Pearl Curtain Village" was all the rage in Shanghai back then. If you sing along, I'll change it for you."

Shang Junqiu hesitated for a moment, looked at me, and I nodded.

"It's good, but I still need more guidance from my husband."

"After Boss Tan's death, no one dared to sing "Zhulian Village". If you can't sing well, you will definitely get scolded, but if you sing well, you will be popular."

"The disciple must do his best to ask the fifth master to fulfill him."

"After three days, you come to get the notebook. As usual, a notebook is [-] oceans, and the fifth master is not worth the price here." After Zhang Wuye finished speaking, he looked at us and stopped looking at us, and ran to the side to play with the birds.

"Fifth Master is refreshing. We will come to pick up the book in three days." After I finished speaking, I stood up with Shang Junqiu and said goodbye to Zhang Wuye.

I didn't have enough money, and neither did Shang Junqiu. Later, he went to the troupe to borrow a sum, and I borrowed another sum from my father.It was only at this time that I saw the horror of cultural people. It seems that it is not too difficult to make money like Wu Ye.

Three days later, we took the money to Zhang Wuye and got the script.

At that time, I used the three-legged cat kung fu I learned from my master to accompany Shang Junqiu to practice at home. I played Li Keyong and his son at the same time. The queen, my mother and the servants at home just sat quietly by the side.

I have been regretting, regretting that I did not go to school well, and regretting that I did not study drama well.So much so that even though I'm just a vocalist, I still feel very powerless, unable to sing what I should sing or play what I should play.Shang Junqiu is different, his figure, his singing, and his footwork all reveal the gracefulness of flowing clouds and flowing water in the subtleties.This incongruity makes me feel very ashamed, but Shang Junqiu doesn't mind, he will comfort me, encourage me, and give me advice from time to time.

I said, "I'll just let you be my teacher."

He smiled, "We are brothers, don't talk about that."

In fact, at this time, I really want to learn the tricks well, so that I can go to the stage with Shang Junqiu to fly together.However, this is the case with the singing industry. Once you miss the best time to study, you will have no chance.I just missed it.

The only thing I'm lucky about is that I can still practice with Shang Junqiu now, and stare closely at his eyes for a while while singing. On weekdays, he will never give me such a chance to look at him unscrupulously s face.

During an interval of practice, I played somersaults with great interest.After I flipped a few times in a row, I failed to close the last somersault, and fell heavily on the ground. I grinned and screamed in pain.Shang Junqiu hurried over, helped me up and said, "It's all right."

I smiled: "You still care about me the most, look at that servant of mine is still standing there secretly laughing."

"I think you didn't fall hard enough, and you still dare to tease people at this time." He let go of his hand after speaking.

"Ouch." I yelled again in pain.

He looked at me and held out his hand.

I took Shang Junqiu's hand and stood up, maybe because of the shock just now, his palm was cold, and there were some sweat dripping down, it was soft to the touch, like a woman's hand.

"Get up, let go." He saw that my hand was still holding his hand, and even if I stood up, I didn't seem to want to separate.

I squeezed harder on purpose.

He struggled vigorously, then shook off my hand and said, "You are seriously ill."

"You are the medicine I need." I said with a smile.

"It's starting to be nonsense again. I'll go talk to my aunt in a while. Are you still practicing this play? If you can't, just take a rest and I'll do it myself."

"Practice, practice, practice. For so many years, this play is my favorite. "Zhulianzhai", you are Pearl Buck, I am Shen Liancheng, one bead after another, I think it is also destined. If I can get on that stage , must be a perfect match with you. Turn around, you can talk to your class leader, and let me knock on the clapper. "

"It's great to watch a play, why do you have to suffer?"

"It's still the same sentence, I like it."

It only took Shang Junqiu five days to practice "Zhulian Village". Under the recommendation of the class leader Sun Diexian, he brought in Yang Xiaolou, the most popular old student at that time, to play Li Keyong. So everything is ready.

The day before the performance, I accompanied Shang Junqiu to meet Mr. Zhang Wu, and brought a ticket for a box.Amidst the sound of thrushes from time to time, Shang Junqiu sang the whole "Zhulian Village".

"Okay, good singing." Zhang Wuye looked at Shang Junqiu excitedly, "I didn't expect you to be able to sing this kind of kung fu at such a young age. It's really a child's lesson."

"Thank you, Fifth Master, for changing the script well."

Zhang Wuye handed the ticket to Shang Junqiu and said: "Take the ticket back, I don't have to go, singing like yours will surely be popular tomorrow night."

"Fifth Master, you should go over and give pointers."

"No need, in the Chunxi class, if you sing the second empress, then Gu Tongshan will sing the elder empress?"

"Yes, that's what the class master arranged."

Zhang Wuye smiled, "Come here, I will tell you a few more words."

Shang Junqiu walked up to Fifth Master and bent down. Zhang Wuye leaned over and whispered a few words.

"Thank you, Fifth Lord, for reminding me."

"Hehe, let's go, Pearl Buck, "Zhulian Village" is a good show, a good show." Zhang Wuye said with a smile on his face.

On the way back, I asked Shang Junqiu what the fifth master had said to him, and he just smiled, "The fifth master won't let me talk." Then he pretended to be mysterious and said, "The fifth master is really unfathomable ,sharp."

On the night of the performance, there was an unprecedented grand occasion in Guangcheng Garden. It was heard that someone revived Boss Tan's famous show many years ago, and all the countless fans in the capital came.Although "Zhulianzhai" was ranked third from the bottom, the cast leader Sun Diexian still came up with the best performance lineup: Yang Xiaolou played Li Keyong, Gu Tongshan played the first queen, and Shang Junqiu played the second queen.As for why Shang Junqiu wanted to play the role of Er Huang Niang, of course Er Huang Niang had more roles. At that time, those who bought the script could choose the role first.Otherwise, I would not do such a loss-making business.

That day, when I sketched Shang Junqiu's face again, I could clearly feel his heavy breathing.I said, "Are you nervous?"

"a little bit."

"Sing how you usually sing, you can't go wrong."

After painting the face, I stayed for a while to massage his shoulders.

He turned his head and looked at me, "Thank you this time."

The performance of "Zhulian Village" was a great success.Of course, Shang Junqiu was the one who benefited the most. He played the role of Erhuang Niang and lifted the curtain, which made people's eyes shine.The father in the box looked at me and said happily, "It's worth the money."

On the second day, "Zhulian Village" became the penultimate finale.With the name of "Zhulian Village", Pearl Buck's name became popular in most of Beiping City.

Not long after, Gu Tongshan left the troupe, and Shang Junqiu became the top Huadan in the Chunxi troupe as a matter of course.

Once, I went to Guangcheng Garden to watch Shang Junqiu perform.After entering the box, I saw a thin young man hiding in the corner, who seemed to be asleep.Looking at the man's disheveled hair and long gown covered in patches, I frowned and walked up to him.I kicked his feet twice and said, "Hey, it's time to wake up, you're just playing."

The young man opened his eyes and rubbed it twice.When he saw me, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Master, I'm sorry, I sneaked in at noon, and I fell asleep until now, I fell asleep." After he finished speaking, he ate the one in his hand again Half of the steamed buns were stuffed into the pockets.

"You can save money by going to the theater. Come in and have a cup of tea at noon, and then just hide here and wait for the evening." I laughed at him and said.

"Master, don't tell the owner of the theatrical building if you play first, I just want to watch "Zhulian Village". Just leave after watching, leave after watching."

"You're good at calculating. "Zhulian Village" is the finale. When you finish watching "Zhulian Village", you'll be watching all the drama for one night."

"Please," said the young man, about to slip out of the box.

"Stop." I yelled at him.

The young man actually stopped. He turned his head and looked at me in horror.

"Where are you going? The seats below are full."

"I'll go to the porch by the pool and stand there to watch."

"Forget it, just sit here and watch. Anyway, there is no one to watch the show with the third master today. If you are lucky, you will catch up with me and be in a good mood."

"Little master, how dare I do this kind of seat."

"Where is there so much nonsense, let you sit down. Say one more word, and I will call the owner of the theater."

The young man nodded obediently, and carefully took the seat farthest from me.

I smiled and said, "What are you doing so far away, I won't eat you."

"Thank you for watching the show, my lord." The young man looked at me humbly and said.

In addition to drinking tea, I also like to take a few sips of water pipes while watching the theater. In the midst of being dizzy, I think Huadan looks more beautiful.

While setting up the stage, I was bored chatting with that strange young man.He said that he was from Hebei, and when there was a drought in his hometown, he followed the team of beggars and fled to Beijing.He said his name was Chen Dazhuang, and I immediately smiled and said, "Look at you, you look like a thin monkey. What is your name?" He immediately smiled and said, "Isn't this a famine?"

Chapter 9

Soon, the performance started, and I didn't bother to talk to that skinny monkey named Chen Dazhuang, and he was sitting peacefully on the side all the time.For him, a box must be a kind of luxury that he has never thought of. I only do some adult beauty things when I am in a particularly good mood.

After the last play was sung, I was still sitting quietly in my box. I watched indifferently as the tide of people downstairs gradually receded, thinking about the time for Shang Junqiu to take off his makeup.

Chen Dazhuang got up and said that he was leaving too. I smiled and said, "You picked up such a big bargain today, so you have to leave anyway."

"Thank you for your kindness, young master. This is the first time I've sat and watched a theater." After Chen Dazhuang finished speaking, he wiped his hands on his clothes, came to me, picked up the cigarette paper and shredded tobacco, and moved swiftly He wrapped a dry tobacco and handed it to me.

"Looking at your method, you are also a smoker?"

"I smoked it for a few years, but later my family became dilapidated, so I bought less."

"What did you do?"

"It's just a poor farmer who has studied for a few years, but it's useless."

"I have read books, it's not easy."

After a while, Shang Junqiu came to the box, he looked at the young man, then at me and said, "Who is this?"

"Report to Er Huang Niang, this is a tramp who is just playing around." I said with a smile and looked at Chen Dazhuang again, "You go, the person I was waiting for is here."

Chen Dazhuang glanced at Shang Junqiu with a surprised expression on his face after hearing me call the Second Queen Mother, and turned to leave.

"Where did the young man come from?"

"There's a famine in Hebei, and we're going to beg for food."

"Where is Hebei?"

"Suning County."

"Su Ning, I'm still from my hometown, I'm from Anguo."

"Not far, not far."

Having said that, Shang Junqiu looked at Chen Dazhuang from top to bottom again, then looked at me and said, "Outsiders are also pitiful in Beiping City, why don't you find him an errand, and you can do it with a little effort." It’s okay to have a meal.”

"You mean that I take him to work as a buddy in my teahouse?" I am not willing to make such an arrangement, because I have always been too lazy to ask about these things that have nothing to do with me. lazy.

"This is not necessarily the case. You have a lot of friends here, just ask casually. There is nothing good about it." Shang Junqiu said.

"Young master, don't be in trouble. I came here this time to watch the show. Now that I've finished watching, I'll go back wherever I came from. Don't worry about me, you two. I appreciate your kindness. Thank you, young master." Sit back and watch a play." Chen Dazhuang finished speaking and walked out.

"Wait." Shang Junqiu stopped Chen Dazhuang again, "I'll go backstage and ask Boss Sun to see if there is any shortage of helpers in the troupe."

I took Chen Dazhuang downstairs, while Shang Junqiu went backstage to find Sun Diecian.

After a while, Shang Junqiu walked over excitedly, looked at Chen Dazhuang and said, "Boss Sun said that there is really a shortage of coolies in the theater troupe, do you want to go?"

"Of course I do." Chen Dazhuang said excitedly, tears were about to fall.

"You're lucky, boy." I glanced at him and said.

The next day, I took Chen Dazhuang to take a shower, changed his clothes, and then sent him to the Chunxi Class.Before leaving, I told him: "You were brought into the troupe by Shang Junqiu. Without him, you might still beg for food on the street. So, when you join the troupe, you must always stand by Shang Junqiu's side, No one is allowed to bully him, and if there is any bad sign, come and tell me immediately."

Chen Dazhuang nodded and said yes, and then went happily.

The agent I installed for myself was a little smug.Because on weekdays, Shang Junqiu always likes to hide himself very deeply. In front of me, he is always in such a good mood, and he always smiles so much, which makes me wonder if he deliberately showed me a smiling face. watch.Even if he has become a famous actor now, I don't believe that he must have no worries.I am a little eager to know his story, his emotions, his love and hatred, I don't want him to cry quietly in those corners that I can't see, I don't want his smiling face to disappear after turning around Turned into dejected.And at this time, I have Chen Dazhuang, I hope he can provide me with some information.Even if I had to go to the teahouse every day, my eyes would always be on Shang Junqiu. Chen Dazhuang did me a favor.

At that time, there were many opera troupes in Beijing, and there were also many famous opera troupes.The troupe bosses tried their best to draw the audience into their own theater.Of course, if you want others to listen to your plays, the most important thing is that you have your own good plays.Therefore, many troupes are constantly launching new plays, and the popularity of Peking Opera is unprecedented.It is often that not long after this theater hangs up a new play sign, the opposite theater also hangs a new play sign.Therefore, even if it is a famous actor, if he doesn't have more than a dozen good plays, he won't be able to stand here.

After Shang Junqiu became the top card in the troupe, he began to have his own silver package. The troupe would divide the income from the performance every once in a while. At this time, Shang Junqiu was already considered wealthy.I smiled and said to him: "Is it time for you to invite me to the theater?"

He said, "Don't worry, I'm not willing to spend my money. Let's ask Mr. Zhang Wu to order two more books."

Of course I have no problem with his proposal.Later, we ordered two more books with Mr. Zhang Wu. After Shang Junqiu brought them, he sang and sang, and this time it completely burned the entire city of Beiping.

In the 20th year of the Republic of China, "Xinmin Evening News" held a selection activity for famous actresses.Because one of the "Four Famous Danes" had already been selected ten years ago, the selection at this time was quite a bit of an era of innovation and a new standard, and the city of Beiping was surging.But there are very few famous actors among the newcomers, and Shang Junqiu is the only one who can compete with the four famous names Mei Lanfang, Cheng Yanqiu, Xun Huisheng and Shang Xiaoyun.I once asked Zhang Wuye what chances Shang Junqiu had for winning the first prize.He said unabashedly: "Fifty percent. Although the four famous actresses have their own strengths, they also have their weaknesses. Relatively speaking, Pearl Buck is more comprehensive. Although Mei Lanfang is the most popular actress now, But in my opinion, Pearl Buck's appearance has surpassed that of Mei Lanfang."

I have no doubts about Wu Ye's comments, but I think I still have to work hard. I hope that Shang Junqiu can go higher, so high that all Hua Dan can't stand it.

At that time, besides the representatives of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the people who were qualified for selection were the leaders of various industries in the pear orchard, and there were also some famous votes.I suggested that Shang Junqiu visit officials and friends to get some votes, but he felt that would be unfair.So, I decided that I would do the job, and let him do his glory.

The Shen family teahouse still has some reputation in the capital, and I can be regarded as a well-known ticket, so I also went to find a face-to-face with those who can't even hit the eight poles on weekdays. Visiting relatives and friends is something that comes to me It's not too hard to say.For those who are stubborn, I still have to spend some real money. After all, prying open your mouth is a vote, accumulating water into a puddle, gathering sand into a tower, and I am proud of my little achievements every day.

Before the list was released, I went to the newspaper office to ask about the selection process, and the friend said, "Shang Junqiu has won the championship without any dispute."

I was very excited about this, and immediately found Shang Junqiu, and I said he was the oiran.

He just smiled lightly, "The result hasn't come out yet, what about the oiran."

"I have already asked the people in the newspaper, and you are the number one."

"It's just a false name, what's there to show off."

"What a false name, this is well deserved. You have given so much, you deserve it, and——I also made a little effort."

"Did you go canvassing again?"

"Everyone goes to canvass, but if you don't canvass, is it fair?"

"I don't like this, and the result is not what I like."

"No matter what, the result is the same. If everyone doesn't canvass for votes, you are also the oiran."

"It's different. If I really want to be an oiran, I hope it will be based on my on-stage skills, not off-stage tricks. I don't want such an unclean championship."

"You are stupid, these things obviously belong to you."

"I don't want it, I'm stupid." After Shang Junqiu finished speaking, he turned around and walked backstage.

Looking at his back, a nameless fire was added to my heart.All my efforts were burned by him, and his own efforts were also burned.I cursed and left the stage.

The next day, Shang Junqiu published a statement in the newspaper about giving up the selection of Mingdan.When I saw the news, I tore the newspaper to pieces.

I came to the rented house of Shang Junqiu angrily, pushed open the door, and saw that he was reading a script.I walked over a few steps, grabbed the script and threw it out, "What kind of statement did you send?"

"It's written very clearly on it, so I give up."

"Why do you give up, have you considered my feelings?"

"I've thought about it, I've thought about it a lot, so I decided to give up. The oiran bought with money has no meaning to me. I deserve it, and I will have no peace."

"Smell is exquisite, you are stinky. I brought your fame to you, but you were kicked away."

"That's not pure, I don't want it."

"Cleanliness, what kind of cleanliness are you playing at this time! Do you think I'm pure? Do you want it?"

He raised his head to look, and then turned his gaze elsewhere, "Although you are not pure, you are not bad."

"Then do you want it, or don't you want it?" I said sternly, thinking that my hard work was in vain, and I felt very distressed.

He lowered his head and said nothing.

I stood up, shook his shoulder violently and said, "You are talking, do you want me?"

He still didn't speak, and let me dangle him around.At that moment, I suddenly wanted to push him to the bed, but I held back because I saw him crying.

Chapter 10

For many days, I didn't go to see Shang Junqiu.But I couldn't bear it anymore amidst the tangled feelings. During this period of painful struggle, I lived like a year, and my life lost a ray of light.I once quietly asked Chen Dazhuang how Shang Junqiu was doing now, and he said it was still the same.

In the following days, he did not come to me, nor did I go to him.
