In the end, Zhang Qingfeng and Tian Ling got engaged, Tian and Yang's family were considered to be in-laws, and Zhang Qingfeng also had an extra fiancée.
This resulted in Zhang Qingfeng being a little unhappy this year.
However, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Qingfeng finally got rid of the trivial matters at home and went to the city to "study".
On the sixth day of the lunar new year, Zhang Qingfeng once again called together everyone in a theater troupe to continue rehearsing the show.
There are only ten days until the Lantern Festival, and they have to rehearse the first three scenes of The Legend of the White Snake.
Fortunately, after more than half a month of Zhang Qingfeng's hands-on teaching and continuous rehearsal, everyone's rehearsal speed is much faster than before.
Just two days before the Lantern Festival, Zhang Qingfeng finally finished rehearsing the first three plays of The Legend of White Snake.
On this day, Zhang Qingfeng's trouble came.
His fiancée found Mr. Zhao.
Fortunately, Mr. Zhao didn't leak anything, he just said that Zhang Qingfeng went to the city to play.
When Zhang Qingfeng saw Tian Ling, he also saw his eldest brother-in-law Zhao Kuan, who had followed him, and his "eldest brother-in-law" Tian Qingshan, who had severely injured him.
"Why are you here?" Zhang Qingfeng asked several people.
"It's almost the Lantern Festival, and your mother asked me to bring you something." Brother-in-law Zhao Kuan said to Zhang Qingfeng.
"Sanlang, these are some things I brought for you." Tian Ling also pointed to a large bamboo box and said to Zhang Qingfeng.
"We are here to sell things in the city, and we can buy some for you by the way." Brother Tian Qingshan explained.
"Thank you! Actually, you don't need to bring anything. I don't need anything here." Zhang Qingfeng said to everyone.
"What's the point, take it for you if I bring it for you." Brother-in-law Tian Qingshan gave Zhang Qingfeng a white look and said, "If it wasn't for my sister who insisted on seeing you, do you think it would be impossible for anyone to come here?"
"Brother, what are you talking about?" Hearing what Tian Qingshan said, Tian Ling immediately reprimanded him.
"Hmph, just rely on him for everything, and you will suffer the consequences in the future." Tian Qingshan replied, turned his head and stopped talking.
"Sanlang, don't take it to heart, my brother is like this, with a knife mouth and a bean curd heart." Tian Ling explained to Zhang Qingfeng.
"It's okay, I understand." Zhang Qingfeng nodded, expressing his indifference.
He is now mainly trying to find a way to send a few people away, and everything else is easy to talk about.
Zhang Qingfeng accompanied a few people to have lunch in the city, and sent them away in the afternoon. At this time, Zhang Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief.
After seeing off a few people, Zhang Qingfeng took a look at what they brought.
The family brought Zhang Qingfeng copper coins, as well as some school supplies and food.
Zhang Qingfeng looked at the things Tian Ling brought him again. In addition to food, there were also two sets of new clothes, which were handmade according to his body shape. He didn't know who made them.
Zhang Qingfeng didn't care so much. The next day, he started to organize people to move things into the city.
The props needed to perform the drama must be sent into the city today, because tomorrow is the Lantern Festival.
In Zhang Qingfeng's drama troupe, besides the main actors, there are almost 50 people who do odd jobs.
With so many people helping to transport things, it only took one morning to finish the transport.
In the afternoon, Zhang Qingfeng organized everyone to set up the stage.
Tomorrow morning, Zhang Qingfeng will lead everyone to finish a play.
In the afternoon, he was going to participate in the Lantern Festival organized by the official Lin'an, and they had to complete the next two plays by themselves.
However, with the experienced old man Liu in charge, Zhang Qingfeng wasn't too worried about it.
The Lantern Festival has not yet arrived, but Zhang Qingfeng found that many families have hung new lanterns.
On the second day, the Lantern Festival, almost all the houses in Lin'an City were put on new red lanterns in front and behind them.
Early in the morning, countless businesses on Yu Street were already in action.
All kinds of stalls are lined up on both sides of the Royal Street, some selling lanterns, some selling Lantern Festival, and some selling other miscellaneous things.
On this day, all the restaurants and inns in Lin'an City were full of customers. Today, countless people from other places would come to visit the city in groups, and the places to eat and stay were naturally full of people.
Speaking of the entire Lin'an City, the most profitable industry is still restaurants.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a popular saying among the people: if you want to get an official position, kill people and set fires and get promoted; if you want to get rich, sell wine and vinegar in a hurry.
Selling wine and vinegar refers to opening restaurants. According to historical records, there are more than 300 restaurants in Lin'an City.
At that time, there was a poem called "three hundred brothel wine flags", which shows the development of Lin'an restaurant industry.
Zhang Qingfeng's drama troupe will perform today at an open-air stage set up by a large restaurant called "Qingfenglou" to attract guests.
Zhang Qingfeng spent five thousand dollars to rent this stage. This was because the restaurant owner took a fancy to Yang Sanlang's reputation.
If it were anyone else, the restaurant wouldn't rent it at all.
You must know that a large restaurant like Qingfenglou with more than a dozen rooms earns a small amount of hundreds of dollars a day. When ordinary people come to rent a stage, they may not be able to value your mere five dollars.
The restaurant owner has heard of Zhang Qingfeng's name and hopes that Zhang Qingfeng's program can bring more business to the restaurant, otherwise he would not rent it out. You must know that such a large restaurant itself supports a group of artists. .
The night before the Lantern Festival, Zhang Qingfeng just found a place to live in Qingfeng Building. He wanted to watch the troupe's props, which was related to the performance on the Lantern Festival, so there was no room for loss.
On the morning of the Lantern Festival, Zhang Qingfeng gathered more than 50 people to have a big meal at Qingfeng Tower, spending several thousand dollars.
Around nine o'clock in the morning, when the flow of people on the street increased, Zhang Qingfeng finally decided to perform the first White Snake drama.
The Legend of the White Snake, after nearly a month of copying and continuous storytelling by storytellers, has now become a well-known story in Lin'an City.
When Zhang Qingfeng played his signature role in The Legend of White Snake, the stage was soon filled with people who were ready to watch the show.
Dangdang, clang, clang~
After a certain number of people gathered, and a burst of drum music sounded, the drama of the Legend of White Snake finally began.
First, a man dressed as a farmer appeared.
"I'm a snake catcher in Mount Qingcheng, I specialize in catching snakes for guts and selling them for money..."
After the snake catcher came to power, he made his purpose clear in one sentence.
At this time, on the stage, there were some prop snakes. After the snake catcher came out, he directly crossed a prop snake with a fork, indicating that he had caught a snake.
Then, he cut open the snake's belly with a knife, took out the snake's gallbladder and put it into the gourd.
This is the first snake he caught.
Soon, he caught the second snake, which was a white one.
"It's strange, how can there be a white snake on this mountain? This should be a snake spirit raised in the Taoist land of Qingcheng Mountain. Maybe the snake gallbladder is better."
After all, the snake catcher was ready to continue taking snake gall.
"Uncle, uncle, can you let it go, it's so pitiful!" At this time, a child ran over.
"Oh, little shepherd boy, you let me let it go? It's money..."
"Uncle, I have ten coins here, here you are, can you let it go?" The little shepherd boy took out ten copper coins and handed them to the snake catcher and said.
"Okay, for the sake of money, I'll let it go."
The snake catcher took the money, threw the snake away, and walked away.
Just after the snake catcher left, a little girl appeared at the white snake's place.
"Little shepherd boy." The little girl called to the shepherd boy.
"Did you call me?" the little shepherd boy looked at the girl and asked.
"Yes, I'm calling you. Thank you for saving your life. I will repay you in the future." The girl said to the little shepherd boy.
"Thank you for saving your life? I didn't save you!" The little shepherd boy asked in confusion.
"Anyway, remember, I will definitely repay you in the future..."
Following the little girl's words, Zhang Qingfeng hurriedly ordered people to put down the curtain in front of the stage.
At this point, the first act of this drama is over.
Soon, the curtain slowly opened, and all the audience saw that the layout on the stage had changed.
On the stage, Xin Yaoqin was dressed in white and sat on a lotus seat.
"I am Bai Suzhen. After practicing for 700 years, I finally achieved the human body... Next, I want to find Master Guanyin to transform me into an immortal..."
In one sentence, it explained the cause and effect.
Unlike TV dramas, because dramas are stage performances, many things can only be expressed through self-narration or narration.
