Chapter 240 Boy's Art
Han Lu thought to himself: Why did Tao Tao think about accepting Song Xiuyan as his apprentice? Xiao Song has a very irritable personality. She used to teach Ding Lauyu very harshly, so don't teach people and children at least.
During the cooking process, our Director Han was very worried and ran over to take a look from time to time.
It’s strange that Tao Tao usually speaks loudly and is very strict with her family. But today when she faces Song Xiuyan, she smiles on her face, and her smile is a little... kind, and she speaks softly.
After practicing the voice, she taught Xiao Song another joke. When she encountered something that was singing wrong, she stopped and explained it repeatedly.
Song Xiuyan also seemed calm and studied seriously despite his normal behavior.
Soon, the meal was ready, and Han Qing also returned home, so Han Lu invited the two of them to have dinner.
Han Lu knew that Tao Tao was strict with students, and he was not allowed to touch meat and fish, and he was not allowed to stick to cigarettes and alcohol. But Xiao Song was only nineteen years old, so could he not allow him to eat meat?
No, Song Xiuyan never touched the pot of the pot of rice he made, and just scrambled tomatoes and scrambled three large bowls of rice.
Han Lu was not curious and asked, do you believe in Buddhism and don’t touch any flesh?
Song Xiuyan replied that he used to eat, but just now he heard from his master that he wanted to have a good voice, not eat meat or spicy food. I want to listen to the master’s words. I want a good voice, I want to sing opera.
Even though he said that, his eyes still fell on the meat and vegetables, and he moved away reluctantly for a long time.
Han Lu praised in his heart: This kid is very persevering!
He loved children. Seeing Song Xiuyan's pretty face and round head, he couldn't help but touch the top of his head. He also remembered that the bastard boy patted his vest a brick, and he deliberately said, "Look, Tao Tao is now your master, I am your master's husband, and I am also your master. One day, one father, you have to call me dad."
Song Xiuyan snorted in his nose, his face collapsed, but it was not easy to get into an attack.
Han Lu took revenge for an arrow, felt very happy and said with a smile: "Son, call me dad, don't be too slow."
Song Xiuyan: "Master's wife."
Everyone squirted out all the rice in their mouths with a thud.
Han Lu was stunned and said, "Is this unreasonable?"
Song Xiuyan said seriously: "You are my master's spouse, and that is the master's wife. Who stipulates that the master's wife must be a woman?"
"You kid is different from ordinary people!" Han Lu screamed in anger.
Tao Tao smiled like a crescent moon: "Xiao Han, is there anyone who makes fun of your children like you? I hate this most."
She was in a very good mood today. She took a good bath before going to bed and sprayed the perfume she bought for her last time on a business trip on Han Road, reminding her that it was the weekend.
It depends on her attitude that she wants to have a happy holiday and a sense of ritual.
Han Lu was shocked, this is a burden that cannot be bearable in his life!
The night is already very deep.
Han Lu: "Are you really planning to accept Song Xiuyan as your disciple?"
Tao Tao: "It's already collected, and I will teach him for two or three hours every afternoon."
Han Lu smiled bitterly: "Lu Yiding and his fourth uncle Lu Guoming had a dispute over the vegetable field, and the house Lu Guoming rented was from Song Tian. I was planning to clean up the outsiders living in the center, and this afternoon I had a fight with Song Tian because of this. As far as I know, Old Song was very disgusted with Song Xiuyan's opera."
Tao Tao: "What's wrong with singing operas? Isn't Song Tian also a Peking Opera actor? Song Xiuyan is in poor physical and mental state, and he is in a good mood for singing operas, which is also good for him. We also know that singing operas has no future, but Xiao Song is no longer studying now, so can we talk about a future?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it is because Xiao Song's child is in poor spirits that Song Tian strongly opposes his son's learning opera."
"Why?"
"Did you find out that Song Xiuyan's raising up, and his favorite singing is female role. If you are a man and a real man, you will play female role, which will make you even more abnormal? I can understand Song Tian's concerns. If Song Song learned to beautify and learn to be a young student, I think Song Tian's reaction would not be so big."
"Xiao Han, Xiao Han, you are still the leader of the Cultural and Art Center. I didn't expect that your thoughts are so feudal." Tao Tao sneered: "What's wrong with a man playing a female role? Is Mr. Mei Lanfang a man? Is the drunken concubine he played an immortal classic? Can the female role he played on the stage be passed down through the ages? Will his cross-dressing female role affect his greatness?"
"Also, decades ago, traditional dramas were actually very conservative, and male and female actors could not be on the same stage. It is very common for men to play female roles, and female actors to play male roles."
Han Lu was refuted by her and smiled bitterly: "Yes, yes, you are right. But when it comes to Song Tian, they can't accept it. Who wants to see their son's clothes?"
Tao Tao's face looked ugly: "You are still feudal."
Han Lu yawned: "Xiao Song wants to learn, if you want to teach, then teach it. Anyway, it's just a fun thing. I know you are a good teacher and you can't change your nature. However, don't let Song Tian know about this, at least until the problem of his dormitory is solved, otherwise it will intensify the conflict."
Our Director Han is really afraid of Tao Tao. His wife's emotional instability. If you don't know what sentence you will make her furious. There is no way, you can only follow it and just want peace in your home - the happiness of middle-aged people is that simple.
Tao Tao: "What's all about it? Xiao Han, I tell you that Song Xiuyan is a genius, with a higher talent than Ding Nanyu. Look at it, it only takes one or two years to train him into a top Sichuan opera star in the city, the province and even the whole country. No, no, no, give me a year, and maybe he can go on stage. Xiao Han, you can recruit him into the center and let him act."
Han Lu was startled, and then disagreed: "Comrade Tao Tao, are you talking nonsense? You are much more skilled in traditional drama than me. You can't just learn opera for a year or two. Even if you have a famous teacher's guidance, no matter how talented you are, it's not. Because opera requires basic skills and you need to practice from a young age. When you are 189 years old, you can become famous. When you are about 40 years old, your physiological functions will deteriorate and you have to slowly retreat to the second line."
"So, the opera is actually a bit like eating youth. The most important thing is the boy's skills, and it's a bit like "If you don't become a national player at the age of sixteen, you will have no hope for life." Song Xiuyan is almost nineteen years old and has been established in all aspects. Now it's too late to get started."
After listening to him talk for a long time, Tao Tao suddenly said, "Song Xiuyan has the merits of a boy."
"What?"
"He has the skills of a boy." Tao Tao said affirmatively.
Han Lu: "It's impossible. Didn't Song Tian always oppose children's drama learning? He scolds him when he catches him, and beats him when he catches him. How did Song Xiuyan learn?"
Tao Tao: "Study secretly."
She said that when she was teaching Song Xiuyan to learn opera, she found that the child had solid basic skills and was not curious, so she asked him where he learned it.
Song Xiuyan replied that when he was a child, his father Song Tian would get up to practice martial arts every morning, and he would watch it by the side. After watching for a long time, he became interested and secretly learned.
Because his father was very opposed to his learning opera, he encountered something he didn't understand, so he took the video tape collected by his home and watched it, and picked up the textbooks he had when he was in the opera school. When he had the chance, he even went to the Peking Opera Troupe and the Cultural and Art Center to study other actors.
As long as there is a performance in the city, he will not go to watch it any.
Over the past ten years, the foundation has been consolidated.
But because there has not been systematic learning, there are still many unsatisfactory places that need to be compensated and strengthened.
After hearing Tao Tao talk about this, Han Lu was surprised. He was a little tired and responded: "Let's talk about it then. If Xiao Song finished his studies, Song Tian would not object. It would not be a big deal to perform on stage. However, I will not provide the staff, and I will not even pay the salary. At most, I will give you a performance fee of twenty yuan at most."
"Okay, that's all, give me a year." Tao Tao became excited and suddenly asked, "Xiao Han, do you want to smoke?"
Han Lu: "I..." His wife has always opposed smoking and cannot smell any smoke at home. Every time he smokes, he can only go to the balcony, and the river wind blows into the wind and blows the flesh.
Tao Tao jumped off the ground, found a carrot, and lit a cigarette for her husband himself: "I'm happy today, I'm making an exception for you."
It’s a pleasant to pour out the bed. Han Lu sighed in his heart: This is a bit warm to the family. As long as Tao Tao can get better, she can do whatever she wants, and I don’t care.
