Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 185 Watching a Theater (Seeking a Monthly Ticket)

In the past, the meat was not tasty, so it was enough for everyone to share one share.

After all, there is always something acceptable.

For them, no matter fat or lean, it is meat, and it is good to be able to eat meat.

But now that the meat is delicious, those who usually don't want to eat meat have started to eat it, so each of them feels that it is not enough.

"Give me the potatoes if you don't eat them!" Someone suddenly shouted.

But where would someone give it to him?

I can't even eat enough.

This makes Chen Nian, who has just arrived, fully feel the enthusiasm.

"Thanks to everyone's love, I will make something better for everyone tomorrow!" After Chen Nian finished speaking, everyone's faces showed joy.

"That's great!"

"The hard times are finally over, Lao Zhang is finally gone hahaha!"

"Master Chen, don't worry, just tell me if you have something to do in the future, I will definitely help if I can!"

Chen Nian watched these people chattering towards him, and thought in his heart that these people seemed to have really suffered before.

The theater troupe is not too poor, and the food is not particularly bad.

If it is not done well, it can only be the reason of the chef.

Either the level is not good, or you can do it well but don't want to do it well.

Soon after dinner, this group of people went to work, and the show began immediately, and the people in charge of the water pot, the judges, the door curtains, the musicians, etc. all had to wait.

When the performance starts, the person in charge of the color box and other people in charge can come over for dinner.

None of them need to be on stage, but some need to arrange actors to wait in advance during the performance, and some need to be responsible for the props that will be used at that time, such as placing tables and chairs, placing bed curtains, spraying fire, throwing cushions and other trivial matters.

As well as things like lifting the door curtain. During this period, the actors went in and out through the left and right doors on the front of the stage. There were door curtains on the door, so there were a dozen curtain people at the upper door and the lower door, who were specially responsible for lifting the actors on and off. door curtain.Hitting the curtain is not simply a matter of putting it on and pulling it up, but is very particular about the accuracy of time and scale. Skilled people who pull the curtain can add luster to the appearance and appearance of the actors.

Therefore, everyone's work in the Chunyu class is very important, so the class leader has strict requirements on them.

With the publicity of the first wave of people, the second wave of people coming over is full of expectations.

As a result, after eating these, they were full of praise.

And the one who came this time was the chief manager. After eating the aged potatoes and braised pork, he decided on the spot that if he could follow this standard in the future, he would give Chen Nian a raise!

Because Chen Nian just came here, the money he gave was not much, which was [-]% of that of the previous chef, but now Chen Nian has this level.

He intends to directly increase the old salary to the original chef's salary.

In this theater troupe, the troupe and some ordinary apprentices are not paid. They are all at the lowest level.

But old age does.

Chefs are hired.

It is natural to be willing to get a raise in salary.

The other theater troupes don't know, but there is a rule in the Chunyu troupe, that is, the chef starts from preparing the ingredients and doesn't leave the kitchen until everyone has finished eating.

Because everyone eats with their throats, if anyone puts something in the pot, their life will be ruined.

But it doesn't matter after the big pot of rice is finished.

The next stove is a small stove, so there is no need to rush to prepare.

So, after Chen Nian cleaned up the kitchen, he came to the corner in front of the stage.

The audience was already full of people. There were scholars in fashionable clothes, laborers in short coats with rough faces, and some rich lords, wives, and young ladies.

However, most of the people sitting were well-dressed people, at least in coarse clothes.

And those who were dressed a little more shabby were standing.

And when they are watching a play, they are often very quiet, and it is the prerogative of respectable people to make noise here.

Although this situation goes against the original intention of Chun Yuban, it is also something that cannot be helped.

The class gap, the poor and the rich being able to watch the theater under the same stage seem to be some kind of charity.

There are two floors in the theater building in front. The first floor is the hall, which is a table, and most of the people sitting there are those who have nothing to do or who like to watch theatre.

On the second floor are some rich wives, ladies and some gentlemen.

As for the missing wall, it is old people and those poor people.

What is sung on stage today is the Peony Pavilion that I heard them practice in the afternoon.

Colorful embroidered fresh clothes, Beijing accent is busy singing.

On the stage, Du Liniang was eager to speak, seeing the spring as it was, wearing pearl flowers on her head, and a plain flower skirt with a floral shirt on a white background, her appearance is delicate and graceful.

The vigor is fully revealed between the eyebrows and eyes, but the words are also elegant and elegant.

Yingying's waist is soft and boneless, her steps are nimble, and the corners of her clothes are like butterflies flying, cute and elegant.

The sound of opening the mouth is like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley, and it sounds like a gurgling mountain spring flowing through people's ears.

"it is good!"

Suddenly, cheers erupted from the crowd.

Moreover, this is also one of the few troupe members who can be named by Chen Nian.

Now the woman on stage is named Du Liniang, the same name as the character.

This name was given by the troupe master. When she was a little girl, she was sold into the theater troupe. Li Fuchun, who was also young at the time, saw that the child was smart, handsome and had a good voice, so she kept her by her side.

Among all the Kunqu Operas, little Du Liniang especially likes the Peony Pavilion.

Therefore, the host gave her the name Du Liniang as her actor's name.

Over time, everyone kept calling her Du Liniang, but no one called her by her original name.

Nowadays, Du Liniang is still the first choice of Guimen Dan and Po La Dan, and she has even learned the direction of Zheng Sheng and Tsing Yi.

After all, in these classes, it is normal for one person to perform multiple jobs.

But among these professions, Guimen Dan is the best at it.

Chen Nian watched like this until after nine o'clock in the evening, his legs went numb.

It is estimated that the play will be over in about an hour.

Chen Nian hurried back to the kitchen to prepare food.

In the evening, he was going to cook some porridge for these people, and make some vegetarian dishes.

There are some artemisias in the kitchen, which can be fried.

There are also a few white celery, which can be cooked first, and then taken out to mix with a cold dish.

Finally, there are some water shields and shrimps. Chen Nian plans to fry these two together.

There are only seven or eight people who have not eaten.

Three dishes are enough.

The main reason is that the three dishes have a lot of weight.

Clean up all these vegetables, whether it is white celery, water shield, or artemisia, it is the first time to cook these old dishes.
