Shuang Qi

After Jiang Qifeng went back, he told his relatives that the blind date was wrong, and as expected, he was reprimanded.

His aunt hoped that he would join the girl's wechat to chat, maybe it could be redeemed, but Jiang Qifeng had no feelings for that girl at all, and he didn't plan to get married in a hurry, so he simply refused.

Fortunately, most people’s holidays are coming to an end, young and old are supposed to go to work and go to school. Within two days, on the morning of the seventh day of the lunar new year, Jiang Qifeng bought a ticket, carrying large and small bags of agricultural products, and took Jiang Hua, on the road. On the way back to Beijing.

"Hello, Yuan'er." Sitting in the car, Jiang Qifeng called Xia Yuan. "Did you sign up for the unboxing program?"

The background sound on Xia Yuan's side was a bit noisy.

"Huh? What?"

"I said, did you sign up for the unboxing program?"

"On what?"

"Unboxing show!"

"I'm too noisy here, let's talk about it later."

After finishing speaking, Xia Yuan hung up the phone.

It is understandable that there are many people around and noisy environment, but what is the faint impatience in this tone?

Jiang Qifeng hesitated for a moment and decided to send him a WeChat message.

After the message was sent out, they waited for the other party to reply. This waited until noon the next day. Jiang Qifeng had already returned home to pack up and sent Jiang Hua to school.

Xia Yuan said that something happened at home, and he didn't come back so soon, let him read the newspaper, any program will do.

There is no big problem with these words, but Jiang Qifeng always feels uncomfortable.

Why does it feel like he's being perfunctory...

Until the day of the unboxing performance, everyone arrived backstage on time, greeted each other a few words, and talked about the bad things about the Chinese New Year.Jiang Qifeng noticed Xia Yuan's abnormality, he was really perfunctory, as if he had something on his mind.

"Yuaner, is that the right word?"

Xia Yuan sat on the chair and looked up at him, then said absent-mindedly: "Hey, it's not the first time I'm doing this job, don't worry about it."

Jiang Qifeng choked back his words, such as "Are you worried?" "What's wrong?" "You're in a strange state." In the end, he didn't ask, just poured him a cup of hot tea and walked away. .

For several days after that, Xia Yuan kept his distance, and only did this to Jiang Qifeng. Anyone who saw it would know that something happened to these two people.

"Brother Feng, what's the matter with you and Brother Yuan?" Shen Shaoguang rarely took a weekend to come back to perform, and when he got backstage, he noticed the strangeness between the two of them, and asked secretly.

Jiang Qifeng said angrily: "I said I don't know, do you believe it?"

Shen Shaoguang was a little surprised, he thought the two had quarreled, how could there be a cold war for no reason? "Then when did you two start acting like this?"

"I don't know, I remember I sent him a message on New Year's Eve and he was fine, and it was like that after the new year." Jiang Qifeng said.

Shen Shaoguang glanced at him meaningfully, and then whispered: "I suggest you ask him directly, don't be cold war for no reason, and hurt your feelings."

Jiang Qifeng was even more uncomfortable, he didn't do anything, he was left alone for no reason, why did he have to ask first?

Xia Yuan really misunderstood something, can't he tell it?Let him ask, ask what?Do you have a problem with me?

Back home, he tossed and turned, tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep, his mind was full of the cold face that Xia Yuan gave him these days.

He couldn't bear it anymore, opened WeChat, but didn't go directly to Xia Yuan.

"Uncle, have you ever tried to fight with your partner?"

It was two o'clock in the morning, and I thought that Xie Yan should have fallen asleep, but who knows that it didn't take long for him to hear back.

"Quarrels are inevitable, and cold wars are rare."

Jiang Qifeng: "Then what if there is a cold war?"

The thank you words may have been hesitant, and it took a while to reply: "If there is a problem, it will be solved, and the cold war will not help."

Jiang Qifeng asked again: "But I don't know what the problem is at all, he just happened like this all of a sudden."

Thank you: "Ask him directly."

Jiang Qifeng: "Why am I the first to speak?"

Xie Yan was already smiling behind the screen. He thought Jiang Qifeng was getting more and more mature, but he was still childish. "Are you a primary school student quarreling? Do you have to worry about it?"

Jiang Qifeng was speechless.

"Okay I see, thank you."

The next day, at the backstage of Dongcheng Tea House, after the performance, Jiang Qifeng took the initiative to find Xia Yuan, sat down beside him with a teacup, put the cup on the table, and asked him: "Yuaner, let's chat? "

Xia Yuan was indifferent: "If you have something to say, tell me."

Jiang Qifeng's tone was sincere, straight to the point: "I want to know what misunderstanding is there between us, why have you left me alone recently?"

Xia Yuan smiled and said: "Hey, it's nothing, I really didn't let you go."

Jiang Qifeng was a little more serious: "Yesterday I turned over several of my baggage by myself. You didn't leave me alone. Could it be that you slipped on stage?"

Xia Yuan was silent, lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jiang Qifeng is also patient, he keeps exhausting himself without speaking, until he opens his heart.

Finally, Xia Yuan raised his head and looked at him, with anger in his eyes and a little dissatisfaction: "Then tell me, why are you eating alone without telling me?"

Jiang Qifeng was stunned, what does it mean to eat alone?

Xia Yuan reminded him: "Capital Satellite TV's Spring Festival Gala."

Well, for this matter.

Jiang Qifeng finally remembered that when Zhao Huyou told him about it, he specifically told him that Xia Yuan would not be included in stand-up comedy, so he didn't tell Xia Yuan in advance.

After agreeing, I have been busy rehearsing, and I forgot when the recording was over. Until today, I haven't thought of telling Xia Yuan.

The program was broadcast on the third day of the Lunar New Year, no wonder Xia Yuan didn't give him a good face after the Chinese New Year.

Jiang Qifeng knew it in his heart, and quickly explained: "This matter... well, I didn't know it beforehand. Teacher Zhao came to me a week before the recording. I really didn't mean to hide it from you."

Xia Yuan is usually a kind person, but today he was rarely touched by him, and asked: "We are partners, why are you worried about such a small matter? Worried that I won't agree with you to go on TV and talk alone? I'm not so narrow-minded. .You remember to report to Boss Tang, so you can’t let me know? Unless, you don’t believe me at all.”

Having said that, it really hit a sore spot in Jiang Qifeng's heart.I forgot to mention it later, but I kept it from him at first because I was really afraid that he would have a grudge.

"I'm sorry, Brother Yuan, it's up to me." Jiang Qifeng sincerely apologized to him, and explained to him: "But I'm really afraid that you misunderstood, I also took the old man's position, Teacher Zhao is afraid that fat water will flow into him Tian, ​​an outsider, was so anxious to let me take the top, I was afraid you would think too much... I really didn't mean not to take you with me."

Xia Yuan was helpless and angry, and took a sip of tea to calm down his anger: "You didn't tell me because you were afraid that I might misunderstand. What about now? Are you satisfied with the result?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't think carefully." Jiang Qifeng said.

The backstage actors had all left long ago, and the two of them were left sitting side by side at the tea table without talking, and the room fell into an awkward silence.

After a long time, Xia Yuan spoke first.

"What do you think about partnering with me?"

Jiang Qifeng was stunned, and asked himself, Xia Yuan is not bad as a person, and his work is not bad, except that he is not fresh enough, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Very good, why ask this?"

Xia Yuan grinned, but his words were very serious.

"Mr. Jiang, if you don't dislike him and plan to continue dating, at least learn to trust me first."

Jiang Qifeng was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"I understand that this kind of thing will never happen again."

-

After Jiang Qifeng and Xia Yuan broke the news, they gradually returned to their previous positive state. They went on stage full of energy and cooperated with each other, and went off stage to practice new tasks against each other.

If you pay, you will be rewarded. Seeing the progress of the two, the audience is naturally willing to give applause and praise. Those prejudices and scolding gradually disappear, replaced by recognition and praise.

In a blink of an eye, Jiang Qifeng has been in Dongcheng Teahouse for a full year, and he has gained neither much nor less. At least in terms of business, he has improved a lot through training.

It's another year of Dongcheng Tea House's anniversary celebration, and the audience and actors have great expectations for the program list, but this year's program list was posted, which surprised people.

"Why didn't you see Mr. Jiang?"

"I remember he signed up for the show?"

"Isn't it because I didn't choose..."

Others said that Tang Chongan threw it away when he was done using it, and Jiang Qifeng's preferential treatment came to an end.

In fact, Tang Chong'an is also very big-headed. He is quite satisfied with Jiang Qifeng's performance and is willing to allocate resources to him, but he can't stand the dissatisfaction of the rest of Dongcheng's management.

Among them, Huang Qiying has the biggest opinion on Jiang Qifeng. He just can't understand Boss Tang's attention to such a young man. How many old artists will never be able to make it to the big stage in their lifetime. A yellow-haired boy, why should he?

"He just came here last year, you said give him a chance to show his face, okay. This year, he has already shown his face, right? There are so many old gentlemen and outstanding young actors in the club, and he can't be the only one given the opportunity."

Tang Chong'an retorted: "It's not that I take care of him, but just talk about his ability. It's only natural to give him this opportunity."

Huang Qiying didn't take it seriously: "He is capable, and so are others. Boss Tang, you can't just see him alone."

"Just say that you don't want to schedule a show for him."

"I want to be fair to other actors."

Huang Qiying is an old man in the Dongcheng Tea House, and he has contributed capital and effort, and Tang Chong'an can't refute his face.

"Okay, then I'll arrange another job for him, so don't stop me." Tang Chong'an said helplessly.

Jiang Qifeng didn't react much after learning about this, and went to and from get off work as usual, pulling Xia Yuan to figure out how to retell the old jokes in new ways.

Xia Yuan also felt strange about this matter, Jiang Qifeng didn't come to Dongcheng to settle forbearance, how could someone rob the stage and still have no complaints?

"You don't feel aggrieved?" Xia Yuan asked him cautiously.

Jiang Qifeng put down his phone, and a classic crosstalk video from decades ago was playing on the screen. He shrugged indifferently, and said, "What can I do if I feel aggrieved, and make trouble with Boss Tang again? It's embarrassing."

Xia Yuan was puzzled: "Then you didn't intend to fight for yourself?"

The corners of Jiang Qifeng's mouth raised slightly, and he hooked his fingers to signal him to come closer.

"Boss Tang has other arrangements, and he won't treat you and me badly."
