Chapter 151: Opera Troupe



In July, a troupe of opera singers came to the village.

A group like this goes wherever they go and sings.

Country people have nothing to do for fun except working and chatting, so a theatre troupe would be very welcome.

This kind of traveling troupe would basically stay in a place for half a month. If they sang well, the villagers would give them a lot of money. If they sang poorly, the villagers wouldn't lose much.

There was a large piece of wasteland at the entrance of the village. After getting permission from Zhou Lizheng, the troupe owner settled down there.

In the past, you had to lie on the wall to watch a play, but now the play is performed specifically for you, so the villagers are naturally very happy.

Some idle men would run over to talk to people with their bowls in hand.

After all, the opera troupe has traveled far and wide, so they are used to seeing things. They have seen a lot outside and can talk eloquently, even confusing the villagers who have never left the village in their lives.

It took a day to set up the stage. When the show started the next day, in the evening, everyone in the village ran to watch the show. Song Yuehua also brought her whole family, carrying long benches to watch the show.

The singing on the stage was in a humming voice, and Song Yuehua was confused.

Looking at the people around her, they all looked absorbed. Was she the only one who didn't understand?

Ignoring the literary scenes for now, the martial arts scenes are still good, and the martial artist who does somersaults does not look very old and has quite good skills.

After listening to several sessions in a row, Song Yuehua began to understand some of the meaning.

After dinner every day, he would take Dabao and Xiaobao to watch a play with the villagers. After the show, he would throw a few copper coins onto the stage as a reward.

After staying in the village for a few days, the people in the troupe became familiar with the villagers.

When Song Yuehua went to Dongshan, she saw a strange face. She pulled Gouwazi who was passing by over to ask about the man and found out that the man was the martial artist of the opera troupe.

"What is this person doing in Dongshan?" Song Yuehua asked.

Gou Wa smiled awkwardly and pointed with his mouth at Ren Xiaoxi who came out of the house with tea.

Song Yuehua, "..."

The two were a little far away from Wusheng and Ren Xiaoxi, so they couldn't hear clearly what they were saying, but looking at Wusheng's wandering eyes, Song Yuehua always felt that he didn't seem like a good person.

Wusheng looked around and asked absentmindedly, "Are all these lands owned by your boss?"

"Yes," Ren Xiaoxi said with a sweet smile, "The host is the most powerful woman I have ever seen. If she were a man, who knows how many women would admire her."

Wusheng chuckled and looked at her and said, "No man can resist being admired by a girl as good as you."

"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about!" Ren Xiaoxi blushed and scolded, "You are really good at coaxing people..."

Song Yuehua, who was far away, heard Gou Wazi's obscene laughter and asked, "You laugh like this, aren't you afraid that no girl will like you?"

Dog boy: "…" Why are you poking my heart for no reason?

Ren Xiaoxi on the other side coughed and asked, "How much money can you make from performing opera in a month?"

Wusheng paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "At least we can eat and drink."

"Oh," Ren Xiaoxi didn't give up and asked in a delicate voice, "How much is it?"

"300 wen, about that." Wusheng said.

"300 Wen? A day or a month?" Ren Xiaoxi asked again.

"You..." Wusheng looked at her lovingly, "Are you a fairy? You don't know the mundane things in the world. Who can earn 300 coins a day?"

"Oh..." Ren Xiaoxi lowered his head in disappointment.

I finally met someone who is good-looking and capable, but why is he so poor? He is even worse than the farmhands in Dongshan, who earn 400 yuan a month.

How bad!

"It's getting late. It's time for me to go home." Ren Xiaoxi stood up and was about to leave.

Wusheng looked around again, nodded and said, "Will you come to watch the show tomorrow?"

Ren Xiaoxi was a little hesitant, "My father has been restless recently, come over when you have time."

The disjunction in attitude was quite obvious. Wusheng thought about it and felt that since he had asked about his wages, it shouldn't be the case.

"I have prepared a gift for you. You must come over tomorrow and don't break your promise, okay?" Wusheng said affectionately.

Ren Xiaoxi didn't want to go at first, but when she heard about the gift, she nodded for some reason.

Because they were too far away, Song Yuehua didn't know what the two talked about specifically, but looking at Ren Xiaoxi's expression, it seemed that he had agreed to something that the martial artist had said.

"Gou Wa Zi," Song Yuehua said, "I don't think this Wusheng is a good person. Go and watch this man and don't let him do anything bad."

"I'm 16 years old, 4 years older than you!" said Gouwazi faintly.

Song Yuehua had to listen to the advice and said again, "Brother Gou, go ahead!"

Gouwazi: "..." Feeling insulted.

Because he had little education and could not express his troubles, Gouwazi felt sad, but he still followed Wusheng down the mountain.

As soon as Ren Xiaoxi returned home, he saw Jin Shaoyang sitting at his door waiting for him.

Uh, she didn't even start to flirt with him, but he came to me?

Ren Xiaoxi smiled shyly and said, "Brother Shaoyang, what are you doing here?"

Jin Shaoyang looked a little uncomfortable. He walked up to Ren Xiaoxi and asked, "The Impatiens flowers on the back hill are in bloom. Do you want to go see them together tomorrow?"

Ren Xiaoxi: "..."

This was the first time they had spoken to each other, right? He invited her to appreciate the flowers right away?

Isn't this kind of thing just about inviting your loved ones?

Could it be that Jin Shaoyang fell in love with her at first sight?

Ren Xiaoxi slapped herself twice in her heart before she came to her senses. Her appearance was at best pretty, how could anyone fall in love with her at first sight? That meant she had ulterior motives.
