Chapter 5 Accident

The snowflakes are falling down from nowhere, and they are getting bigger and bigger.

The Jiang Peian brothers were walking on the path back.

Looking at his depressed brother, Jiang Peijian took a sip of his lollipop, grinned with his cavities exposed, and gloated:

"I just said that Uncle Li wouldn't agree to it. Now it's better. I didn't invite anyone and even brought two boxes of things in."

Jiang Peian glanced at his mouth full of cavities and said calmly:

"I'll go back and tell grandma that you secretly eat sweets again."

Jiang Peijian immediately exploded:

"It's obviously the pocket money you gave me!"

"I didn't let you buy candy."

Jiang Peijian drooped his head and said gloomily:

"I was wrong, brother."

"Well, then I won't tell my grandma..."

"Thank you, brother..."

When the audience watches a play, one is to watch the excitement, and the other is to have a sense of involvement.

But in recent years, affected by the turmoil in the sea, actors have quit acting to find work.

Jiang Peian recognized the figure as Li Shouguo, and he ran towards Li Shouguo with his long legs.

"It's okay. My aunt already has a basic disease. Coupled with the cold spring weather these days, she has a high fever.

"Brother...is he calling us?"

…

On the bed, Zhang Xiuying's face was pale, she was breathing too much in and out, her forehead was hot, and she was very weak.

Folk ditties are about parents who are short-tempered, and even have some vulgar content.

The cold wind carried Feixue, and every time he opened his mouth to shout, the wind and snow poured into his throat.

"I don't want to sing opera, and I don't want to sing opera anymore."

Li Shouguo looked at Zhang Xiuying's sleeping face and continued:

"Go back! It's Uncle Li!"

Jiang Peijian pulled his brother's sleeve and pointed at the person behind him.

Therefore, the best choice is to be in line with the public when it comes to casting, and even look worse than ordinary people.

Listening to Li Shouguo's words quietly, Jiang Peian said slowly:

Due to its popularity, Bang Opera has troupes at almost every level in Xinyang City.

But ordinary people simply can’t do it, or the cost of learning is extremely high.

Li Shouguo was silent for a while and then suddenly said.

Li Shouguo asked hoarsely.

Zhang Xiuying, Li Shouguo’s wife.

Jiang Pei'an has many years of experience. When he saw Li Shouguo's appearance, he knew what he was thinking and said:

"I paid all the expenses, including the money for hospitalization and medicine in the next few days."

Before Jiang Peian finished speaking, Li Shouguo interrupted and said:

"Although I don't know if what you mean by acting is different from what I understand, but you can get paid for acting, right?

You have paid in advance, and I will act with you."

Jiang Peian smiled slightly.

In fact, the opera troupe began to decline in the 1980s and did not revive until Jiang Peian was reborn.

When Jiang Peian saw this situation, he had to go to the hospital.

Most of the stories are about family ethics such as the mother-in-law being blamed and the daughter-in-law being overpowered, the brother-in-law and the sister-in-law being the most powerful.

Jiang Peian was so happy that he immediately jumped down from the hospital bed, took out a notebook from the small bag and said:

"Uncle Li, this is the script, you have to read it first."

They are also invited to perform on stage when there are weddings and weddings in town.

Seeing Li Shouguo approaching anxiously, Jiang Pei'an said "after I go to Jiangliu Clinic" and pulled the cart towards the next town.

Everyone gets the same amount of money for every performance, and I, a cripple, get the same amount as everyone else, and everyone feels uncomfortable.

Especially the protagonists of folk songs are all middle-aged men and women in their thirties.

Asking his cousin Jiang Peijian to support Li Shouguo, Jiang Peian quickly ran towards the hut.

We have also been facing the problem of low wages and benefits for employees, and neither current nor retired personnel have received social security, medical, accident insurance and other security benefits.

It's better to go back and continue to stay in the town theater troupe.

Bang Opera is the most popular type of opera for people north of the Huaihe River.

In particular, the image of Li Shouguo is very appropriate.

He has been performing on stage all year round, so he has plenty of experience and his movements are spot on. More importantly, the singing part does not require dubbing.

He won't spend a penny on Xiuying's medical treatment.

"Cold, cold..."

Jiang Peijian suddenly turned pale. His mother was much stricter on him than his grandmother!

Exhaling a breath of mist, Jiang Peian tightened his collar.

The most outstanding feature of folk tunes is the combination of singing tunes and movements.

Judging from the fact that the average monthly salary of urban employees is 777 yuan, 50 yuan in rural areas is already a lot.

There are more than a dozen people in the troupe, and they perform around to earn some extra money during their spare time.

After teasing his little cousin, Jiang Peian felt much better.

…

Even in the eyes of someone like Li Shouguo, who only had one acre of land to harvest, it was too much!

"You are not from the troupe."

Although it is possible to find ordinary people to play the role, it will take a lot of time to train.

"Uncle Li, I originally came here to ask you to act in a play, the kind that can be on TV..."

Because Henan Opera was formerly known as Yu Province Bangzi, Bang Opera is the common name of Henan Opera in northern Xin'an Province and Pengcheng, Suzhou.

Everyone has no money, so I don't want to drag them down.

But I was lame just for the performance!”

It turned out that he wanted to ask him to take Zhang Xiuying to see a doctor.

Li Shouguo is very suitable, but he is unwilling to play the role, and his words seem to exclude the Zhenbang Theater Company?

Jiang Pei'an also couldn't understand the grudge between him and Bang Opera Troupe.

Originally, Xiuying started to have a fever two days ago, but I thought just taking some medicine would be enough..."

Li Shouguo took a look at the notebook, which was a Tianzi grid, the kind used by children to practice calligraphy.

Wrapping Zhang Xiuying in his cotton clothes, he found a cart from outside the house.

It originates from Shahe Diao, one of the four major tunes of Henan Opera.

Zhang Xiuying whispered.

"Although the theater troupe comes to express condolences every year, they don't bring such expensive gifts.

Jiang Pei'an only has one requirement: that the actors can ignore the presence of the camera and speak the lines and perform actions fluently at the same time.

In the snow that was flying all over the sky, a staggering and embarrassed figure was running towards them.

Bang Opera is also called Henan Bang Opera, Xiangcheng Bang Opera, Gusu Bang Opera, etc.

"I'm willing to star."

On the hospital bed next to him, Jiang Peian was wrapped in a quilt with only his head exposed.

So Jiang Peian pulled the trolley all the way to the clinic in the next town.

"Uncle Li, don't worry, I'm going to take a look now."

The biggest problem right now is finding actors.
