Chapter 56 Music and Thought

"Hahaha……"

In the experimental theater, there was constant laughter at this time.

Liu Zhou sat in the audience, watching the audience in the back row being amused from time to time, and he felt completely relieved.

As long as there are no unexpected events later, this drama should be a success.

You can tell whether a show is going to be popular these days by listening to its laughter. That’s the case with the big-name show “Rhino in Love” by Meng Jinghui.

Liu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and turned his attention to the stage.

"Pei Kuishan, is your lower body not working well?"

"Zhang Yiman, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean? She said you can't do it!"

"What can't I do?"

"You're not good at that!"

"You know I can't do it? Have you tried?"

"Tie Nan, try it with him, it won't take more than a few seconds."

"a ha ha ha……"

Yuan Quan in the audience couldn't help but laugh, and then asked Teacher Chang Li:

"Teacher, isn't this line too bold?"

"The lines in this play are much more unrestrained than those in traditional dramas, but this is a new-style drama after all. Take a look at Meng Jinghui's popular play Rhinoceros in Love, where the lines are even more bold, with all the talk of semen, mating, and so on."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Quan fell silent. Although the drama "Rhino in Love" was very popular, she had never seen it.

She also received traditional drama education, so hearing these bold lines gave her a mental shock.

She also discovered that not only were the lines in the play bold, but the play itself was also very bold.

The story of this drama takes place during the Republic of China period in a school called Sanmin Primary School in the northwestern mountainous area. The principal's surname is Sun.

As soon as he heard the name, Yuan Quan understood what it meant.

Principal Sun led three teachers, Zhang Yiman, Zhou Tienan, Pei Kuishan, and his daughter Sun Jia to settle down in the countryside, wanting to teach rural children to read.

This is a good thing and a very meaningful thing.

However, in that chaotic era, education was also a difficult task.

In desperation, Principal Sun falsely reported a teacher in order to make more money, which meant he was drawing a salary without working.

The falsely reported teacher was Lv Deshui, but he was just a donkey. Because he was responsible for pulling water for the school, Principal Sun named him "Deshui".

It was okay at first to eat such an empty sound, but after a long time, it also exposed the greed of several teachers.

For example, Zhou Tienan bought some sports equipment, Zhang Yiman bought some clothes, and even the money for Principal Sun to repair his glasses was paid with Lu Deshui's salary.

Later, the school bell broke, and Principal Sun found a coppersmith to repair it.

The school bell in the opening scene is meant to introduce the important character, the little coppersmith.

Later, the donkey shed accidentally caught fire. Sun Jia wanted to use water to put out the fire, but Principal Sun and the three teachers refused. They thought the fire was too big and it would be a waste of water. It would be better to let the fire burn out completely.

The first conflict between the three broke out here, with Sun Jia shouting that he would report them for drawing salaries without working.

Sun Jia's outburst exposed the filthiness of this seemingly good mountain village school.

But in the end, Sun Jia was suppressed and appeased by her father, Principal Sun.

Later, the higher authorities wanted to send a special envoy to inspect, and Principal Sun had no choice but to ask the young coppersmith to impersonate Lu Deshui.

At the beginning, Principal Sun applied for an English teacher for Mr. Lu Deshui, but Mr. Lu didn't know how to speak English, so he had to find someone else to teach him English, and that person was Zhang Yiman.

The highlight of this section is here. Zeng Li, who plays Zhang Yiman, wears a cloth cheongsam with the side opening reaching her thighs, revealing a pair of white and slender long legs, which is very arousing.

Coupled with Zeng Li's charming charm in her every frown and smile, it can be said that she is very alluring.

Yuan Quan didn't expect Zeng Li to perform so well.

Yuan Quan was shocked for a moment, and suddenly saw her boyfriend's eyes shining out of the corner of her eye, and immediately pinched his thigh.

In fact, Liu Zhou originally arranged for this segment to have some friction between Zhang Yiman and the young coppersmith, which would have given people a stronger impact and temptation.

But now the actress who plays Zhang Yiman is Zeng Li, his girlfriend. Liu Zhou must be stupid to make such an arrangement, so he deleted this detail.

Opening the cheongsam to the thighs was the limit that Liu Zhou could accept.

"Teacher Lu Deshui, your true colors have really been revealed."

After listening to teacher Lu Deshui's unique Mongolian English, the special correspondent said the following.

Everyone thought that their conspiracy to collect empty salaries had been exposed.

All the teachers and staff of Sanmin Primary School came over to apologize, some admitted their mistakes, and some took responsibility.

But what I didn’t expect was…

"Can you handle it?" The special commissioner spoke harshly to the few people, but smiled at Teacher Lu Deshui and said, "Only Teacher Lu Deshui can carry the banner of rural education in China."

this……

"Hahaha……"

"This special envoy is a fool...hahaha..."

The audience was amused to see this, and discovered that this special envoy was actually an fake who could hear Mongolian as some Shakespeare classic.

Seeing this, Liu Zhou almost burst out laughing, even though he had seen it many times.

Afterwards, the special envoy waved his hand and increased Lu Deshui's salary from 1800 French francs to French francs.

This made everyone very happy.

Then the lights went dark and the scene changed.

The time is two months later, and the scene is everyone dancing to the music under the lights, looking free and easy.

Everyone was laughing happily. Pei Huaishan had changed the most, with an extra mink coat on his body.

Then, the lights changed from bright to dark, and there was another scene change. Soon everyone could see the difference.

There is no sign of "Deshui Classroom" at Sanmin Primary School anymore, and the teachers' names are directly written on it, which shows the power of money.

Then it was the important character, the coppersmith's wife, who came on stage. Qin Hailu wore dark makeup and coarse cloth, and her teeth were painted yellow with a hint of black. She stared with her eyes, looking like a fierce woman.

Although he and Zhou Tienan knew that they were from the same Northeast, it was useless. She still wanted to make a big fuss.

"I just want to ask, who among you has an affair with my coppersmith?!"

"My coppersmith has stopped working since you came back. He's been flipping through some old books and mumbling something. I don't know what language he's speaking!"

"We've been married for so many years and I still don't know him?"

"Has he changed his posture in all these years? Huh?!"

"I'm going back from here! Your postures have changed, and your tricks have become more varied. Yesterday! Yesterday! He actually bit my damn ear!"

"Just do your job, why are you biting my ears? Can ears be eaten?!"

Seeing this part, the audience burst into laughter.

Qin Hailu undoubtedly performed very well and with great explosiveness.

Next was the scene where the special envoy was kicked by a donkey, which also made everyone laugh.

The continuous jokes made some viewers with low sense of humor laugh so hard that their stomachs hurt.

Then comes the climax of the whole drama, which is when everyone reveals themselves.

Pei Kuishan, with a black plaster on his forehead and a body covered in mink, was extremely vicious because of his previous resentment towards Zhang Yiman. He forced Zhang Yiman to admit in front of the special envoy that she had an affair with the coppersmith.

Zhang Yiman had no choice but to admit it, and then was hit in the face by the coppersmith's wife.

When they were about to leave, the young coppersmith found Zhang Yiman again, but Zhang Yiman directly shattered his fantasy.

"You still want to live with me? I slept with you just to keep you for photos for inspection."

"Do you really think I like you?"

"I am just that kind of person. As long as it's a man, it's fine. That happens to be you."

"Are you awake? Go home with your wife."

"Do you really think of yourself as a human being? In my heart, you are just an animal!"

After forcing the young coppersmith away, Zhang Yiman squatted on the ground, crying and trembling all over.

The lights went dark and the screen changed again.

This time, not only did a special envoy come, but a beautiful Chinese also came.

The special envoy also specifically reminded everyone that Teacher Lu Deshui's salary was 100,000 French francs.

Everyone understood that the higher-ups were taking kickbacks, but they still readily agreed.

The young coppersmith had already left, but was invited back by them.

Then the young coppersmith relied on the power of the special envoy to retaliate against Zhang Yiman crazily. Pei Huaishan also said all kinds of insulting and vicious words to him. Although Principal Sun didn't want to do this, he remained silent.

“I, I… ahhh…”

Zhang Yiman is crazy!
Her hair was cut like it had been chewed by a dog, and the beautiful girl was gone.

The upright Tienan, who had been stopped by Principal Sun before, could no longer bear it and loudly revealed the truth that Lu Deshui was a donkey on the spot.

But the special envoy still wanted to continue the drama, so when facing Zhou Tienan who was directly against him, he directly ordered his soldiers to open fire.

Bang! The gun went off.

The lights dimmed again, and everyone in the audience's hearts were in their throats. The plot just now was so tense that it was taut. Conflicts and contradictions between the characters kept emerging one after another, making it hard to breathe.

After a while, the lights came on.

Zhou Tienan lay on the ground motionless, while Zhang Yiman was beside him, her face full of fear and tears in her eyes.

Everyone’s first reaction was that Zhou Tienan was dead.

But Zhou Tienan suddenly stood up.

"Oh my god, I didn't hit you, I didn't hit you, haha... I'm not dead."

However, when Zhou Tienan stood up and faced the special envoy's gun again, the audience who thought he would be tough again gasped.

"No, no, no! Special Envoy! I was wrong!"

In an instant, this originally tough man hugged the special envoy's thighs, his flushed face was full of fear, and tears and saliva flew out.

"I was wrong! I was wrong! I was wrong! Please don't shoot! I will listen to you! I was wrong! I was wrong! I was wrong..."

As you know, this person is deformed.

Sun Jia, who had a mutual affection with Zhou Tienan, wanted to say something immediately when she saw him become like this, but was suppressed by Principal Sun's use of the father-daughter relationship.

The coppersmith didn't speak English at all, so there was no way he could fool the beautiful Chinese woman, and then everyone arranged for him to fake his own death.

When the American Chinese saw that teacher Lu Deshui, whom they had sponsored, had died, they offered to give his family $10,000 as compensation.

The ten thousand dollars made everyone's eyes turn red instantly.

So Sun Jia was begged by Principal Sun to play the role of Lu Deshui's fiancée. Sun Jia wanted to expose this matter, but Principal Sun suddenly knelt down.

"Lü Deshui's death was so unjust! It's all my fault! It's all my fault!"

The person kneeling was actually his own daughter, Sun Jia.

Finally, the American man proposed to take Sun Jia to the United States, but when the little coppersmith heard this, he also wanted to go and suddenly came back to life.

Although everyone managed to smooth it over, Sun Jia was forced to hold the wedding with the young coppersmith.

Then the coppersmith's wife suddenly appeared, adding some humor to the originally depressing atmosphere.

The coppersmith's wife almost suppressed the coppersmith by blood, and then made a scene at the wedding.

After the farce, the crazy Zhang Yiman chose to commit suicide, and Sun Jia chose to go to Yan'an to join his eldest brother.

Principal Sun, Zhou Tienan and Pei Huaishan continued to stay in the school. Principal Sun still suggested that everyone get together to gather together, as if nothing had changed.

And this drama has come to an end.
