Two days later, at half past five in the evening, Dahua Theater.
Leng Qingqiu, Leng's mother, uncle Song Runqing and servant Han Ma came to the theater to listen to the play.
When we arrived at the private room, we saw that the table was almost full of wet and dry fruit plates, Chinese and Western snacks, cigarettes, and tea cups.
The waiters in the theater are always arrogant and have no eyelashes. Because the ticket was bought by the Jin family, they thought the Leng family was also the Jin family, so they paid double compliments, which naturally made the Leng family a little proud.
At six o'clock, Xiang Nan came to the next room.
Song Runqing, Leng Qingqiu, and Mrs. Leng heard this and naturally came over to say hello.
"Brother Song, Qingqiu, Mrs. Leng, the waiter is very attentive. If there is anything inappropriate, just tell me." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"No, it's appropriate, it's very appropriate." Song Runqing said with a smile, "Thanks to the Seventh Young Master for today, otherwise we wouldn't have seen such a good show."
In such a big theater at that time, it cost 50 cents to sit down. If it's a good seat in the front row, it's usually three yuan or five yuan. And if it's a first-class box ticket, it's at least thirty to fifty yuan.
Therefore, ordinary working people will never be able to listen to operas every day. If you can listen to a few plays a year, you are considered a middle-class family.
"You're welcome." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Watching the theater alone is boring for me, so why don't we all come together."
"Okay, okay, it couldn't be better." Song Runqing was eager to chat with Xiang Nanduo, so she naturally agreed to his proposal.
Immediately, the two families arrived in the same box, and Xiang Nan was also arranged to sit with Leng Qingqiu.
…
Showing at Dahua Theater today are "Yu Tang Chun", "Borrowing the East Wind" and "Huang Tianba".
Although the four members of the Leng family love to go to the theater, they can't go to the theater more than a few times a year. Therefore, although the singing was lively on stage, the four people could not understand it at all.
Fortunately, Xiang Nan knew opera, and not only helped them explain the story, but also told them the lyrics, so they listened to it.
"Seventh Young Master is indeed very knowledgeable. Without you today, we wouldn't even be able to watch the show." Song Runqing said with a smile.
"It's just that I've seen more, so I understand a little bit." Xiang Nan waved his hands and smiled, "When you see more in the future, you will naturally understand."
"Harm, how can we have such an opportunity in the future." Leng Qingqiu sighed.
It was thanks to Xiang Nan that they were able to come in and watch the show today. If it were them, even if they bought individual seats, it would cost two yuan. It's simply not something they can afford.
Xiang Nan smiled when he heard this.
She has such regrets and has obviously moved on. And as long as you have the idea of bathing, the rest of the things will be much easier to handle.
"Oops, I feel tired from sitting all the time. I want to go out for a walk~" Xiang Nan stood up and said.
Seeing this, Song Runqing quickly pushed Leng Qingqiu away.
"Teacher Jin, I am also tired from sitting. Let me go for a walk with you." Leng Qingqiu stood up and said.
"Okay, let's go." Xiang Nan nodded.
…
The two left the theater.
It was already the end of October, Leng Buding came out, and when the wind blew up, Leng Qingqiu couldn't help but sneeze.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan immediately took off his coat and put it on her body.
"Thank you, Teacher Jin, but what about you?" Leng Qingqiu said gratefully.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. If you don't believe me, touch it and see, my hands are still very hot." Xiang Nan held Leng Qingqiu's hand and said.
Leng Qingqiu was a little shy immediately, but then said in surprise, "Teacher Jin, your hands are indeed very hot, like a stove."
Xiang Nan smiled, grabbed her other hand and put it between his own hands, "Here, let me warm it for you. Is it much warmer?"
"Yes." Leng Qingqiu nodded, but then shyly withdrew his hand.
"Don't move." Xiang Nan said softly, holding her hand tightly.
"Teacher Jin, I...you..." Leng Qingqiu's face turned red with embarrassment, and she wanted to pull her hand away, but she couldn't, as if she was being sucked.
"Qingqiu, actually I have something to say to you~" Xiang Nan said.
"..." Leng Qingqiu suddenly became a little nervous.
"I like you. I've liked you since the first time we met." Xiang Nan said softly.
Leng Qingqiu suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He looked at Xiang Nan with wide eyes, completely speechless with excitement.
"You don't have to rush to reply, I'm willing to give you time." Xiang Nan said again, and then let go of Leng Qingqiu's hand.
…
At this moment, three topless and arrogant gangsters walked out of the alley.
When they saw Xiang Nan and Leng Qingqiu, they immediately gathered around him.
"Oh, what a pretty girl, what a flattering young master~" a gangster laughed.
"Master, the three of us are hungry for wine, please lend us some wine money~" Another gangster laughed.
"Girl, it's freezing cold today. Come with the three of us to have a glass of wine to warm up." Another gangster smiled and reached out to touch Leng Qingqiu's little face.
"Get out of here, are you bullying me?" Xiang Nan pushed him away and said.
"Hmph, you still dare to push me, you are too brave, brothers, beat him!" the gangster shouted angrily, pushed Xiang Nan to the ground, and the remaining two gangsters also punched and kicked him.
Leng Qingqiu, a weak-minded female prostitute, had never seen such a scene of gangsters, and she was stunned to death. Not to mention running away, not even calling for help.
In just a moment, Xiang Nan received several punches and kicks. His clothes were torn and his hair was messed up.
"Qingqiu, run!" At this time, he still said loudly.
Leng Qingqiu just reacted at this moment and quickly turned around to run away.
Three gangsters immediately caught up with her and tried to catch her.
At this critical moment, Xiang Nan climbed forward, dragged the three people's legs with all his strength, and then shouted to Leng Qingqiu, "Run quickly~"
Leng Qingqiu ran back quickly, shouting for help while running, "Help, it's not good, I killed someone~"
At this time, the driver Dehai came up and asked, "Miss Leng, what happened?"
"Teacher Jin...Teacher Jin...Teacher Jin was beaten, go and save him!" Leng Qingqiu said breathlessly.
When Dehai heard this, he immediately picked up the bricks and rushed forward.
As soon as the three gangsters saw him, they ran away.
…
"Master, are you okay?" Dehai stepped forward and asked with concern.
"Teacher Jin, how are you?" Leng Qingqiu couldn't help but feel grateful and heartbroken when he saw Xiang Nan looking miserable and miserable.
"I'm fine, Qingqiu, just hope you're fine." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
Seeing that he was beaten like this but still thinking about him, Leng Qingqiu was naturally grateful.
"Master, let me help you get into the car." Dehai helped him.
Seeing that he was struggling to support him, Leng Qingqiu quickly stepped forward to lend a hand.
The two of them struggled to help Xiang Nan into the car.
"Master, I will take you to the hospital." Dehai said again.
"No, don't go to the hospital." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "This matter cannot be known to outsiders, otherwise it doesn't matter if I get injured, but it would be bad if Qingqiu is involved."
"Teacher Jin, don't talk about this now." Leng Qingqiu persuaded movedly.
