As early as two or three hours ago, the actors had already entered the theater and walked the stage according to the procedure, which was the final rehearsal.

At seven o'clock, the host walked onto the stage in a suit.There is no suspense about the host's identity, none other than Zhao Huyou.

"Welcome audience friends to the 13th anniversary performance of Dongcheng Tea House. Before the first pair of actors come up, let me ask, is there any [-]-year-old audience here?"

Originally, I was interacting with the audience and asking casually, but there were quite a few people in the front row shouting "Yes!"

Holding the microphone, Zhao Huyou took a few steps forward and approached the auditorium, squinting his eyes and looked: "Hey, I think you are familiar. How about we have an event, after the performance is over, all 13-year-old audiences, With the one-year-old ticket stub of the Dongcheng Tea House, you can pick out a dozen or so performers in the backstage, right?"

He couldn't help laughing when he said it himself, and the audience naturally heard that it was not true.

However, where the real old audiences come to listen to cross talk, they like to play with the actors.

In the front row, a big brother flipped through his bag and took out a worn-out performance ticket, raised his hand and waved it towards the stage. "Teacher Zhao, look here!"

As expected, Zhao Huyou's attention was attracted, and he walked over to look carefully at the words on the ticket: "I really brought it! Then wait outside after the show is over, if someone comes to you..."

"How is it?" The big brother in the front row asked excitedly.

Zhao Huyou said: "That means it's getting late and you're hallucinating."

For a while, the whole house was full of laughter, and the elder brother who had been teased was not angry, he leaned his head back on the seat, and laughed along with the people around him.

The warm-up talk is almost finished, time is limited and there is no delay, Zhao Huyou retreated to the middle of the stage, and said seriously: "Not much to say, first of all, please enjoy the cross talk "Stealing the Ax", performed by Huang Qiying and Liu Yuchun."

The two actors stepped onto the stage amid applause, while Zhao Huyou bowed and returned to the backstage.

The backstage of the theater is larger than the teahouse where the performances are usually performed. It is quite spacious for more than a dozen actors to sit and lie down here to rest. Listen attentively.

Holding half a cup of tea in his hand, Shen Shaoguang looked at the seniors around him, and then at Jiang Qifeng in the distance. After hesitating for a while, he put the water back on the table and walked over to pat him on the shoulder. "Brother, it's still early, you don't plan to listen to every game here?"

"There's no harm in listening more. If you are familiar with Dongcheng's style, you can polish your own works in the future." Jiang Qifeng replied, but his attention did not shift.

Time passed by every minute and every second, the foreshadowing in the front was stable and the rhythm was tight, and the burden continued in the back, which made the audience laugh. There was only one thing that made Jiang Qifeng uncomfortable. I don’t know if Huang Qiying did it on purpose. Take Jiang Qifeng to smash it.

Everyone knew that Jiang Qifeng abandoned his mentor and came to Dongcheng Teahouse from Qulan Club. This matter was justifiable by Qu Lan Club, but it was not a good idea for Dongcheng to be so messed up.

They said it easily, what will the audience think after laughing?There is no size on the stage, but it is not a loss of proportion.

Huang Qiying and Liu Yuchun came down after talking. The second program was Qunkou's "Picking the Jacket". After the three actors went up, there was an empty seat on the sofa, and Huang Qiying sat there very naturally.

"Master Jiang, I have to thank you for all my burdens today."

I haven't asked him for an opinion yet, but he preemptively strikes.

Jiang Qifeng suppressed his dissatisfaction and said with a smile, "It's no big deal."

Soon he discovered that something was wrong, not only the first pair of actors kept their three words away from him, but also the following shows, so he looked at Tang Chong'an very displeased, hoping he could explain something.

Although Tang Chong'an was not on the sidelines, he could still hear what the actor in front said, even if he couldn't listen carefully to every sentence, Jiang Qifeng's name appeared so many times, it must have caught his attention, right?

But until the fourth group of actors came on stage, Tang Chong'an still didn't say a word.

Jiang Qifeng left the side view and returned to the vanity mirror, stroked his hair a little in front of the mirror, and sighed inadvertently: "The burdens of the teachers are overwhelmed, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to catch them later .”

The others didn't speak, but judging from their expressions, there seemed to be a lot of schadenfreude.

It is rare for Xie Yan to mention him bluntly: "If you feel overwhelmed, don't talk about it. We didn't have this paragraph when we rehearsed the dialogue."

Jiang Qifeng said confidently: "I know what's in my heart, so I don't need to say much, just a little bit of water is enough."

After waiting for another half an hour, the previous show was coming to an end, and most of the actors in the background did not speak, and their eyes were on Jiang Qifeng and Xie Yan.

Jiang Qifeng patted the hem of the coat he had just put on, and stood up neatly and walked towards the side view. Shen Shaoguang understood, adjusted his collar a little, stood up and followed.

The actors in the fourth scene came down, and Zhao Huyou went up again.

"Next, please enjoy the group cross talk "Training Apprentice", performed by Jiang Qifeng, Shen Shaoguang, and Xie Yan."

As soon as the voice fell, Shen Shaoguang was on the left and Jiang Qifeng was on the right. The two walked onto the stage side by side, and stood in front of the microphone and the table.

As usual, the person standing inside the table should be the popular actor, that is, Shen Shaoguang.

But "Training Apprentice" is a bit different. In this show, Shen Shaoguang's role is an audience member. He came to the actor Jiang Qifeng to sing the lyrics of Taiping, and finally thanked him for coming up to train his apprentice.

Therefore, unlike other programs, Shen Shaoguang stood outside the table, while Jiang Qifeng was inside the table.

"Today is a good day, the [-]th anniversary of our Dongcheng Tea House." Shen Shaoguang raised his hand to support the microphone, and said first: "When I come to the stage, let me introduce myself first, my name is Shen Shaoguang. Hey, no applause, no applause .”

Adding such a sentence is actually reminding the audience to applaud. After the words fell, there was warm applause in the theater, and a few audience cheered exaggeratedly.

"Is anyone outstretched for applause?" Jiang Qifeng said with a smile.

Shen Shaoguang went on to say: "My name is not worth mentioning. After introducing me, I have to introduce the teacher next to me. This teacher is not simple. You may not have seen him, but his name has repeatedly appeared in your ears. "

Jiang Qifeng reminded: "Say the name..."

"You..." Shen Shaoguang hesitated: "What's your name, tell me yourself."

"I don't know if I'm a co-author?" Jiang Qifeng rolled his eyes at him, then said to himself: "My name is Jiang Qifeng, the Jiang Qifeng who lives in the mouths of the teachers in front of me."

Shen Shaoguang jokingly said: "Young Master Jiang, you are always there in the front?"

"That's right, I haven't seen a few more wages paid to me." Jiang Qifeng said.

Shen Shaoguang looked sideways at him slightly: "Let me ask you, are you short of money?"

Jiang Qifeng made a vigilant expression, hesitantly said: "What's the matter, what do you mean?"

Shen Shaoguang said: "That is to say, I like you, your art, and our cross talk singing."

"Taiping lyrics?"

"Correct."

Jiang Qifeng understood: "Oh! This is a traditional thing, do you like it?"

Shen Shaoguang said: "That's right, Mr. Jiang, I'll ask you to sing and give you money, do you think it's okay?"

They have been working together since here, and the two have worked together for more than a month. It is not a tacit understanding, but at least they have gotten to know each other a lot, and the whole song is solid and interesting.

When Xie Yan came to the stage, the audience's interest was even higher. As Xie Yan raised his fan and slammed it down, there were three muffled "bang bang bang" sounds, and laughter and applause exploded together, which lasted for a long time in the theater.

"Mr. Jiang still has hard work, but his partner is too young to hold the line."

"What's the use of hard work, human nature is bad."

"It's not as bad as it is said on the Internet, right? I think he has been in Dongcheng for more than a month and hasn't said anything bad about his old club."

"Watching works, watching programs, we don't care about the family's grievances."

At the end of the show, the three of them bowed and returned to the backstage. Xie Yan was used to it after all the battles, and Jiang Qifeng didn't have too much experience. The sweat-soaked coat finally felt relieved.

Jiang Qifeng glanced at the air outlet of the air conditioner, pulled out a piece of clean clothes and put it on Shen Shaoguang's body: "Don't blow your sweat directly on the air conditioner, because you'll be sick tomorrow and how can you perform."

"Alright, thank you brother." Shen Shaoguang responded.

The next few scenes were all famous actors and actresses in Dongcheng, and the audience's response was self-evident. The last round was the most lively, and Zhao Huyou had to laugh for a while after every sentence, which made Tang Chong'an sigh.

"I figured it out, Mr. Zhao is just a switch."

Xie Yan corrected him: "It should be said to be their laughing hole."

The [-]th anniversary performance of Dongcheng came to an end in the dark, the audience left the stage one after another, and the backstage actors also began to pack their things and discuss where to go for a meal later.

It's just that no one expected that as soon as they walked out of the theater, they saw a figure not far away, the one who interacted with Zhao Huyou at the beginning.

Zhao Huyou laughed out loud when he saw him: "Pfft, brother, are you really here to take me back?"

The actors behind also laughed.

"Old Zhao, you can continue to work the night shift!"

The big brother in the audience was very enthusiastic and cheerful in the theater, but at this time he felt shy, touched his forehead in front of the actors, and said embarrassedly: "No, no, I just like a few teachers for many years, really from the first year I started chasing... I want a group photo, do you think so?"

Zhao Huyou was also easy-going. He found some bright spots on the side of the road and asked him to take a group photo one by one.

Just when everyone thought it was almost time to leave, the big brother in the audience hesitated and shouted again.

"Young Master Jiang!"

At first, Jiang Qifeng thought that this was an old audience in Dongcheng, and he should have nothing to do with him. Halfway through his fugue, he was suddenly called and was stunned. He stopped and looked at him: "Huh?"

"Can I take a photo with you too, so that I will be your old audience after more than ten years."
