The dance was choreographed by Gao Shanyue herself, and she emphasized perfection.
It would be best to bring the audience into the atmosphere and make them feel the endless grief and suffering brought by natural disasters. In order to achieve the so-called effect, Su Niannian and others, as the lead dancers, almost worked themselves to death and even had to spend their off-get off work time in the dance studio training.
Fortunately, due to busy work during this period, Wang Guifen took Fubao to Gao's house, and even Xue Ya did not live at home. The little girl has been sticking to Xue Weidong all the time during this period, and it is obvious that she is still scared of what happened last time.
Living in a high house makes it convenient for them to travel.
Therefore, when dusk fell, the person waiting outside the art troupe was Gu Zhiye, who had got off work early. He was carrying the food from the army canteen, and after the guard registered it, he delivered the food to his wife. When Su Niannian was training, Gu Zhiye waited quietly by the side without expressing any opinions.
However, Gao Shanyue's voice was inexplicably lower when she got angry. She was a little afraid of her brother-in-law. After reviewing all the mistakes made today, she hurried Su Niannian to leave. Five or six hours of high-intensity training made someone with a weak constitution like Su Niannian suddenly relax, and her limbs became weak.
Her forehead was wet with sweat and her cheeks were flushed.
A rare embarrassment.
The art troupe was quiet at night. Gu Zhiye abandoned the idea of avoiding suspicion and simply carried his wife to the parking lot, then drove her home.
When she was not on a mission, Gu Zhiye would come to pick her up in person eight out of ten days.
When she got home, Su Niannian's eyelids couldn't stop drooping. She was extremely tired. When the hot steam filled her face, she was surprised to find that she was sitting in the bathtub, and a man with his upper body naked was wiping her body.
The action was about to go astray. Su Niannian was so scared that she grabbed his hand holding the handkerchief and stammered, "No... No! I won't have the strength tomorrow if you do this. Gao Wan made a fool of herself during training last time. I don't want to..."
In response to her, Gu Zhiye's smiling eyes, after wiping the water stains for her, the man put his strong arm through her legs and smiled wantonly: "Do I look like such a rude person? Don't worry, I won't touch you."
After carrying his wife to the bed, Gu Zhiye gave her a good massage to relax her muscles. After she recovered from the fatigue, Su Niannian felt sleepy again and her eyelids drooped uncontrollably, but she still remembered the most important thing. At this moment, holding the man's arm, she reminded him gently, "You are going to come to this performance, right? As a family member, I have reserved a ticket for you. You must come."
The man hummed softly, turned off the light, and fell asleep holding his wife.
This performance was very grand, and the admission tickets were basically distributed to leaders. Gu Zhiye had been on a mission two days ago, and when he returned, the tickets in the political commissar's hands had been divided up cleanly. It was said that even the leaders of major factories in the capital and wealthy and powerful people would go this time, and the tickets were sold out. Gu Zhiye thought it would take some effort to get a ticket.
Who knew that Su Niannian was still thinking about him. Indeed, he didn't want to miss any of his wife's performances.
For this reason, he turned down the invitation from Ning County.
…
Time flies and it is August.
On this special day, Captain Zhang did not dare to relax at all. After repeatedly confirming with Gao Shanyue the leaders who would be present, he followed the announcement.
The performance officially begins.
Su Niannian and others are having special effects costumes painted on their faces by professionals. Unlike the heavy makeup they wear on weekdays, all the members participating in this program are covered in dust and dirt. Jiang Xiaofei even starved herself to lose five or six kilograms. She heard from Xue Weidong that during that special period, even the wild vegetables in the village were snatched away. He only ate two meals a day and was starving.
Jiang Xiaofei only hopes that she can give the best performance possible so as to raise supplies and funds for the victims and do her best.
Gao Wan always had a solo dance. She was dressed brightly and beautifully, forming a sharp contrast with Su Niannian and the others. The moment they passed each other, she couldn't help but sneer, "It's ridiculous to use this kind of show as the finale!"
Su Niannian raised her eyes and looked at her: "Flowers have a variety of reds, it's better than you not being qualified to participate in this program."
Yes, Gao Wan was born with a bright and rich face, and her rebellious attitude, so she was excluded by Gao Shanyue from the very beginning. The best candidate was Su Niannian, who was born with a pure and lustful face. With her miserable refugee makeup, she could easily win the hearts of all men.
Seeing that the two seemed to be arguing, Gao Shanyue threw away the program in his hand and walked over quickly.
Gao Wan turned around and went to the front of the stage.
"..."
As the curtain opened, they could see the dense crowd outside, which was even more crowded than the last performance in the auditorium. Gao Shanyue ruffled Su Niannian's deliberately messy hair and asked with a smile, "Sister, are you nervous? This dance has abandoned your usual beautiful image..."
"I was nervous. I was just afraid that I didn't do it well enough."
"..."
With big eyes that were clearly divided into black and white, messy hair and patched clothes, Gao Shanyue herself was a little nervous, but the show had already been signed up, and for them, there was no way out. As one performance after another ended, it was soon their turn. Amid the noise, the whole venue fell into darkness.
Gu Zhiye, who was sitting in the audience, had no time to care about the eyes of the people around him. His attention was only on the stage. A vicissitudes of life voice gradually sounded: "Please save your life. I ate this Guanyin soil and my stomach became bloated."
As the lights came on, a white-haired old woman appeared in front of everyone, followed by the cart that was obviously made of wooden boards, on which lay the pot-bellied Su Niannian. No one had expected that the art troupe would use a stage play to expose the famine so nakedly in front of everyone.
The stagnant atmosphere and sad dance were like the last solo dance of life. The most eye-catching one was the pregnant woman played by Su Niannian. It was an interweaving of hope and despair. Everyone stared at it intently, as if their breathing was being held tightly.
Don't dare to miss even a single point.
I saw a pregnant woman who was tortured by life and finally jumped off the cliff due to hunger.
Everyone's eyes were wet.
No one noticed the stiffness and twisting of Su Niannian when she landed. Because of the high angle, the props team had already processed the mud and dead branches on the ground to cushion the force. Su Niannian and Liu Tao had learned the essence of acrobatic dance performances, so there should have been no problem with this jump, but she had cold sweat on her forehead and was holding her stomach, wailing softly on the ground.
The leader beside Gu Zhiye couldn't help but wipe his tears: "It's too tragic! It's really too tragic. I never thought she was living such a miserable life..."
As the voice behind the scenes sounded, the famine in the south was unveiled in another way and presented to everyone. The fundraising began, but the smell of blood seemed to linger on the tip of his nose. Gu Zhiye, who was sitting in the front row, caught a glimpse of his wife limping back behind the scenes and stood up suddenly.
In the darkness, someone was walking in step with him.
Almost running backstage...
