Chapter 72

When the third year of high school is close to the model, everyone will feel that time is getting faster and faster.Yu Ren's grades stabilized until Yu Xiaomin became calm and relaxed. Other parents fought for their children to enroll their children in prestigious schools, but her daughter turned them down.Originally, Yu Xiaomin was angry at Yu Ren's inaction, but she was relieved by the head teacher's words, "As long as she takes the normal exam, she can choose the school, and Yu Ren's psychological quality is very good."

He Tiantian in Yu Ren's class has already passed the independent enrollment of Renmin University. The hope of the class to hit Qingbei falls on Yu Ren's shoulders. When the class teacher talked to her about the choice of volunteers, Yu Ren said lightly, "Now I don't think about which one to study. So, I still focus on the review and don't want to get distracted." But the teacher felt that the child seemed to have chosen a goal, and he just restrained himself skillfully, and he didn't need to ask and disturb the student who could keep things hidden in his heart.

On the half-day vacation on Sunday, Yu Ren still went to the village in the city first, brought Yuan Liu a hamburger with French fries, and played with her in the Unicom store for a while before saying goodbye.Along with her was Huai Fengnian, her curly hair grew thicker and taller again, and she was tied up with a headband to expose her forehead, while Su Hai threw herself on her lap when she saw her coming, and then turned her face to the ground depressed and unwilling say.

"Su Hai's mother is pregnant." Yuan Liu vaguely knew the reason for her little friend's displeasure.

Yu Ren and Huai Fengnian looked at each other, while Su Hai muttered, "I don't want a brother or sister." Some time ago, the mother seemed to have quarreled with the stepdad several times because of this, saying that she would abort the fetus.The stepfather said that since she was pregnant, why bother?There was unconcealable happiness on his face, and he took more care of his mother.

There is also a cheap-mouthed one who always likes to tease Su Hai, "Xiao Hai, your mother is going to give birth to a little brother for you, and the house at home will not belong to you in the future, it will belong to your brother."

Huai Fengnian hugged Xiao Suhai under his lap, "Shall I take you to eat fried noodles?"

The little girl had no appetite. She looked at the older sister, "Do you have a younger brother or younger sister?" Huai Fengnian said that I was the only one in my family, because if there were younger brothers and sisters, my father would lose his job.

Asking Yu Ren again, she pursed her lips for a moment, "My parents divorced, my father formed a family with someone else, and gave birth to another boy."

As if he had found the answer, Su Hai's eyes lit up, "Then your father likes you or him?"

Children's desire for monopoly is always strong, Yu Renxiao said, "I don't live with them, so my father should like him very much." In the past two years, she and Ren Songhong have not had many opportunities to meet, and the father and daughter get along well. After a while, Ren Songhong talked about that son, "Skin! You can't compare with you." With the old father's loving face in his eyes, Yu Ren knew that this was a polite way to get close.

Su Hai has always been obsessed with the matter of fighting for family property, "That's not okay! The family property is mine."

"Yes, you have to keep emphasizing this point. You must never give up your own things." Huai Fengnian encouraged the little guy, and looked at his watch, "Yu Ren, we have to go?" daily necessities.

Yuan Huifang came back riding a bicycle. Two bags of fruits and vegetables were hanging on the faucet of her car. Yuan Liu shouted "Mom!" The voice was clear and intimate, and Yuan Huifang replied "Hey." He muttered, "Damn the green beans have increased by [-] cents" and swallowed.While her daughter had already stepped forward to help her carry the food, Yuan Huifang reached out and touched Yuan Liu's head, "Damn, don't you like chicken wings? Mom will fry them for you today."

"Xiaoyu and Xiaohuai are here? Have lunch at home before going back?" Yuan Huifang politely asked the two little guests, and then cleaned out the advertising leaflets from the car basket. A Yue opera actor, Yu Ren asked if he could show her.

"What is this? I'm going to throw it away." Yuan Huifang handed the stack of advertising leaflets to Yu Ren.

There are several Shaoxing opera actors printed on the leaflet. The female Xiaosheng and Huadan in the middle are wearing exquisite stage makeup and elegant costumes. The slogan is "Longxi Yue Opera Theater and Baizhou Yue Opera Troupe will jointly launch five classics." She will read it again. In the name below, I really saw "Producer Wang Li".Below are rows of small characters, Yu Ren saw the three names that made his heart beat faster: Bai Maosheng.

Uosheng was in the last row of the Longxi Yue Theater column, the fourth from the bottom.Yu Ren finally found her again in a row of small round portraits in the upper left corner of the leaflet. It was just the background of another actor, with half of her face painted with fresh makeup.

Huai Fengnian asked, "Huh? Interested?"

Yu Ren scanned the performance time and stuffed the soon-to-be-expired flyer back into the stack, "Nothing." After she finished speaking, she helped Yuan Huifang throw away the trash.

After returning home in the afternoon, Yu Ren turned on the computer. Yu Xiaomin, who was busy making dinner in the kitchen, had long since ignored her playing games online, wishing she could relax for a while.Yu Ren searched the news page and saw the performance in the local news.This time, Uno has a separate photo. She is wearing colorful trousers and water jacket with no makeup, gesticulating with an old actor.The caption of the picture reads "Young actors learn humbly from their predecessors".

Eyebrows are eyebrows, eyes are eyes, but Maosheng always has biological changes that Yu Ren can't tell.She stared at the picture for a while, and felt more and more strange.Yu Ren immediately withdrew from the news, and then cleaned up his online traces.

"Caicai, you can eat dinner by yourself. Mom will be going out for dinner soon. Rest early at home." Serving soup, Yu Xiaomin looked at her daughter's thin face and pinched her chin, "What do you feed the students all day in No. [-] Middle School? "

"It's just a normal meal. It's not delicious, but it's not bad." Yu Ren served Yu Xiaomin a bowl of soup, "Mom, drink some soup before going out to eat, remember not to drink."

Without the obstacle of Bai Maosheng, the fighting atmosphere between the mother and daughter has gradually subsided in the past year. Yu Xiaomin took over the bowl, "Have you decided what major to study?"

"Chinese language and literature should be given priority, followed by philosophy." Yu Ren's answer stunned his mother, "Ah, it's hard to find a job." Chinese language and literature are better, "Peking University is good." We must hurry up and let the children make up their minds to enroll in Guanghua College.

Yu Ren said "Yes", still thinking about Bai Maosheng in the photo.After dinner, she dug out her junior high school graduation photo, and Mao Sheng, who was standing in the second-to-last row behind Yu Ren, was smiling innocently and brightly, with gleaming white teeth.At that time, Yu Ren was not tall, and he was pulled out by the photographer after standing side by side with Uno, "You are small, stand in front." The two girls had to separate reluctantly, but when the photographer said to be ready, "1—— 2——", Yu Ren took Uosheng's hand from behind.

So Yu Ren's smile was a little stiff and guilty, while Uogi was silly, but the heat in his palm still seemed to be there.

Yu Ren remembered that the photo of Maosheng in the news looked unhappy, and his face lost the brilliance of singing.How confident is Xiao Uosheng who appeared on stage in the first grade of junior high school?Now that she has joined a professional theater troupe, she is like a flower bud that is beginning to shrivel—it caught up with a severe drought before it bloomed.

Looking at Uno in the graduation photo, Yu Ren once thought he was in love.She pointed at Uno's smiling face, and put the photo back in the drawer.

Yu Ren, who sat back at the desk again, became impatient. Bai Maosheng came to mess with her brain.Putting down her book, she opened Q again, which has not been logged in for 800 years. The latest news was indeed sent by Uno two weeks ago, "Yu Ren, I heard that you are almost identical, come on, senior year!"

In addition to these cheering words, Uno is a holiday birthday greeting.Even if Yu Ren ignored it, she still persevered.To say "perseverance" means more than a year.Some things can last for a year, not necessarily for ten years.

Yu Ren wanted to say "Congratulations on being on stage", typed a few pinyin and then deleted it.She can't let Uno find out that she is still paying attention to her ex-lover.

而海报上的时间在俞任的脑海里像咒符一样飘荡,最后的日期是“2006年3月4日、3月5日晚上6:30到9点。”她曾经多想看看正式舞台上的卯生,多希望那个俊朗的小生戴上她送的红绒帽。

One hour before the performance, Yu Ren clenched his fist and told himself, "You still have a set of math problems to finish." She should have walked out the day she was in the city library. As it should be.But Yu Ren looked at the time when his palms were full of sweat, only 15 minutes had passed.

If he waited any longer, Yu Ren might suffocate.She carried her schoolbag and went out, stepping on white sneakers and walking through the drizzle and damp spring.She lives in the old city, and it only takes 10 minutes to take a taxi to the Yue Opera Troupe in the south of the city.Yu Ren put away his umbrella and sat in the taxi trembling in a daze.The driver saw from the rearview mirror, "Is it cold outside? It's late spring."

Yu Ren wiped the raindrops on his hair, "Yeah." Yu Ren's heart, which had been chilled for more than 400 days, caught fire because of an unintentional glance, and was alternately hot and cold by the spring rain.

The ticket price is not expensive, and there are almost no scalpers.Many people got the task tickets or free tickets issued by the unit. Some people saw Yu Ren standing in front of the poster but didn't mean to enter the theater, so they went up to sell them, "80 yuan, do you want the tickets upstairs?"

Yu Ren said yes.The distance upstairs is very safe for her, she can watch the stage on and off the stage to her heart's content, without worrying that her eyes will reveal the fire in her heart.She felt that she was crazy, or that Yu Ren himself was a lunatic, but her self-control was far superior to that of ordinary classmates.

The setting was thoughtful, and the combination of video and real scenes made the audience who are used to the old mode applaud immediately. Yu Ren wiped his glasses and watched calmly.She didn't even recognize the actors, the main character, the supporting role, the clown, the villain, the boy, the official, the poor, each had their own merits, and she couldn't tell the good from the bad, and became more and more anxious, "Can Mao be on stage?"

After waiting for almost four or ten minutes, a tall figure walked onto the stage with footwork. Yu Ren's heart stopped, thinking that he might have read it wrong. After the accompaniment sounded, the actor in scarf sang, his voice was not high-pitched but not low-pitched , with a slight nasal sound, which made her singing highly recognizable, "Whatever you say, the daughter of the general is savage, with strange feelings and little warmth..."

It's Uno who has strange emotions and a lot of warmth. Once he recognizes him, Yu Ren can't listen to a word, but is only attracted by Uo's expression.Under the light, those eyes with eye shadow poured out like a galaxy, and Uo, who was singing, revived the spiritual energy in his body.Uosheng was very excited, because Yu Ren could hear the suppressed excitement in her voice.Uno was also very happy, because when she left the stage after singing a short paragraph, she walked with high spirits.

Seeing the master in the background, Uo gave a thumbs up directly, and immediately smiled back to the master.Without her master, she would not have this precious opportunity to be on stage.Colleagues from Shengyue Theater also nodded to Uo, "Xiaobai, yes." This is an approval.

She waited silently for more than half a year, and she was called to the stage by Wang Li's name, but she was secretly said to be a related family, and those who were really related have long been dubbed "Youth Successors".Uosheng, who was about to explode at an opportunity, was elated, feeling that the road in front of him suddenly became wider.

She could see the road in front of her, but couldn't see Yu Ren sitting on the stage in the first row upstairs crying.It was pitch black, and the audience was so busy applauding anyway that no one could see her.Yu Ren thought of the little scorpion in "Farewell My Concubine" who was crying while eating candied haws, "How did they become horns? How many beatings would they have to suffer?"

Uno won't be beaten, but it's still so difficult to become a character.How much cold air and bitterness did she have to endure?Her Uno should be standing in the center of the stage, singing and reciting and sitting and dancing recklessly for a long time, but why is there only this small glimpse?Yu Ren wiped away his tears, complaining why Uosheng didn't tell himself before going on stage?How many times has she listened to the girl's singing practice, has she even lost this qualification?

Yu Ren finally waited for Maosheng to play twice, at most he only read a few words, or made facial expressions to cooperate with others. It was not until the end of the curtain call that he came out first with several actors to express his thanks.Uno returned to his shy look, standing on the edge, Shui Shui's eyes looked from top to bottom, and then slowly swept from left to right, as if he wanted to engrave this rare night into his heart.

Mother Zhao Lan was looking at herself from the audience, and finally saw her daughter back to Baiyue to lose face.Yinxiu couldn't come because she was going to Guangdong on a business trip, but she had seen herself on stage in the provincial capital; the master had been watching her from behind the scenes, and was very satisfied with her apprentice's performance.Uno asked himself that he sang well, and there were no mistakes in the performance.If there is any regret, it is that Yu Ren is not here.Uosheng thought of his master's words, "You have to deal with Xiaoyin steadily."

But now Baizhou is like an insurmountable wall in her heart, half of which is covered with "Yu Ren", touching the scene to make her feel emotional, how can she let it go easily?

She took another deep breath to calm herself down.At this time, several rows of headlights on the top floor of the theater were also turned on, and the beams of light swept from upstairs to the auditorium downstairs. Uosu saw many audiences stand up and applaud, and their eyes were attracted by the only orange light in the shadow of a bunch of white lights. It landed on a female spectator sitting with her head bowed in the first row upstairs.

Maybe she was dissatisfied with the performance, Uosu thought, and was attracted to glance again: the female audience wore glasses, and her gaze was unobstructed to Uosheng on the stage, her eyes met, Yu Ren was stunned, Uso I also froze and forgot to bow again.

The old colleague next to her pressed her waist and whispered, "Xiaobai, bow."

Uosheng thanked him slowly, and then looked up, Yu Ren was still there.Uno is glad that he did not study hard, unlike others who have myopia.She waved at Yu Ren, wanted to laugh, but shed tears.

"Oh, Xiaobai, the days ahead are long, don't cry." The old colleague comforted her.

Uno nodded, then bowed and wiped his tears. After finally waiting for the curtain to fall, Uno couldn't wait to remove his make-up and change his clothes before rushing to the audience exit of the theater. The master was right, she had to understand the rules, and she couldn't do whatever she wanted.

However, Uno's legs didn't follow the rules, she stood out in the audience after the show, and she didn't feel embarrassed when people looked at her.She stared at the crowd, and finally a girl came out of the left entrance. She walked to the steps and prepared to hold an umbrella, "Yu Ren—"

Uosheng called her, and Yu Ren's umbrella was too shaken to open.She looked back at the girl in the costume running towards her, the rain and sweat began to drip onto her makeup, and Uosuke said, "Yu Ren." She was so excited that she didn't know what to say, and she stamped her feet after a while, "Wait Half an hour for me, just half an hour!"
