"You really don't need me to accompany you?"
In front of the car, Shi Rui straightened the collar of the girl in front of him and said.
Yu Zhi ruthlessly brushed his hand away and said helplessly, "I'm not a child anymore, why do I need you to follow me around all the time?"
Today was the day she had agreed to meet Mr. Lin's apprentice, but the man in front of her was not only more concerned than herself, but he had even mentioned the idea of accompanying her three or four times at least seven or eight times this morning.
It’s not that Yu Zhifei didn’t want him to go, but this time they had agreed to go to the opera troupe to take a look, and the face of the actor Shi was too iconic, so it would easily attract everyone’s attention.
Moreover, this time her parents had not returned for the New Year for a long time, so she naturally wanted to let the family reunite more.
Shi Rui was still a little worried, and his expression was very hesitant.
Actor Shi has been the man of his word for so many years, but this is the first time he has become fussy.
Yu Zhi reached out and patted the other person's cheek, as if coaxing a child, and said, "Be good, Sister Zhizhi will be back soon."
No matter how Shi Rui felt, as a man he naturally could not tolerate such an action.
His eyes became dangerous, and he reached out to grab the little girl's arm and asked, "Who is Sister Zhizhi?"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Yu Zhi fully utilized her escape instinct at this time, jumped into the car, and stared at the man through the window with wide eyes.
Shi Rui looked at his empty hands and burst out laughing in anger.
The little girl is becoming increasingly difficult to deceive.
However, he still walked forward and knocked on the car window. After the other party obediently lowered the window, he reminded him again: "The Lin family is not as peaceful as you think."
"The Lin family is divided into two groups. One is led by Mr. Lin's son, and the other is led by his eldest disciple."
It stands to reason that since we belong to the same team, we should prosper and suffer together.
But Mr. Lin's son did not inherit his father's noble character at all. He always thought of some evil ways and even looked down on the team led by his eldest disciple, and often suppressed them in secret.
I guess Mr. Lin also knows this to some extent, but at his age, he is no longer willing to get involved in the fights between his descendants.
But after weighing the pros and cons, he still introduced his more reliable senior disciple to Yu Zhi, which was very considerate.
A theatre troupe is a small society where many people live to make a living, which naturally requires everyone to maintain the most sincere heart.
Yu Zhi was used to seeing this kind of thing when she was a child, so she didn't find it surprising after hearing it now.
Having seen so much, she has learned more ways to deal with things, so none of this should be able to scare her.
......
With the concern of a certain movie star, the car finally stopped slowly.
This place is hidden in a busy residential area, and the driver drove around for a long time before finding the real location.
The area is full of life, with vendors setting up stalls and children riding bicycles everywhere.
Stepping over the scattered vegetable leaves on the ground, Yu Zhi finally arrived at the door of the opera troupe.
The building in front of us is very charming. Every pattern on the wall seems to have extra vitality, telling the world a story of hundreds of years.
There is a large plaque hanging above it, with the words "Lin Family Opera Troupe" written in firm and powerful strokes.
A woman in a plush cheongsam was standing in front of the door. Her hair was combed so neatly that not even a single strand of hair could be seen clearly.
She had an innate temperament, and Yu Zhi felt as if she could see the Peking city of the past through her.
She also noticed the person coming, and first smiled very friendly, then came forward to greet him.
His steps were steady and not hurried, even his earrings did not sway at all with his steps. This person's foundation must be very solid.
Her speaking manner is just as she appears at first sight: although a bit formal, she doesn't make people feel too distant.
"Zhizhi, right? I'm Tian Hanxia, just call me Sister Xia."
Yu Zhi shook the other person's hand and introduced herself respectfully: "Hello, Sister Xia, my name is Yu Zhi."
"Don't be too formal with me. Master said you wanted to come and see the opera troupe?"
The two walked side by side towards the door, and at the same time they were getting to know each other in the simplest way.
"Yeah," Yu Zhi agreed, and then added, "I still want to sing opera."
"But the path you are on now is one that many people long for but cannot reach."
This is indeed true. With Yu Zhi's current momentum, if she continues to develop, it is probably only a matter of time before she becomes a top star.
Drama is obviously more suitable as a hobby. If it is regarded as a career, according to its current development, it is naturally not very promising.
To be fair, before meeting Yu Zhi or hearing what she said, Tian Hanxia really didn't have much affection for this girl known as the Peking Opera Beauty.
Nowadays, everyone advocates reviving traditional culture, and even opera troupes sometimes welcome a few young girls and boys in their early twenties.
However, their purpose is often not to sit down and watch the performance, but to take pictures, open them, and post them on WeChat Moments or Weibo to attract attention. This has a significant impact on the audience and the actors on that day.
But everyone who comes is a guest. Tian Hanxia has taken over this place for more than ten years and has witnessed its rise and fall. She also hopes that these people can make this place a little warmer.
Unfortunately, it didn't happen. With the booming entertainment industry, this dilapidated garden received even less attention.
Sometimes a large group of actors even have to perform in front of an empty audience, or ask a few cleaning staff to come to the stage to perform.
Can they not act?
cannot.
Learning a skill is not that easy. Everyone has been practicing since childhood. We have devoted all our time to it since our youth. How could we easily give up this decades-long persistence?
For many people, this is their rice bowl. Even if this rice bowl can't even hold water, they will never give it up.
