Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Binglan had spent much time writing the script and knew all the lines. Therefore, she used different voices and played the roles of several people during rehearsals.
Everyone at home watched Su Binglan without blinking, thinking her play was beautiful.
Su Wenwu had seen his sister leading her rehearsals before and thought it was excellent. However, he felt her mock performance this time was much better. Su Binglan performed multiple parts and even changed voices throughout. It was wonderful.
Yue Huachen watched her mock performance, his heart racing. He was in a trance and felt like he had returned to his time in the deceased royal’s mansion.
After the mock performance, Su Wenzhe was the first to clap. “That was wonderful! My sister is awesome! I’ve never seen a more lovely performance. It was excellent and understandable.’
The family watched with interest and was full of praise. Su Wenwu said, “You should perform on stage, Little Sister. You’d cause a sensation.”
“l won’t perform, Wenwu. I’ll arrange for others to do it.” Su Binglan’s primary motive for creating this play was for Luo Jin’an. She wanted everyone to know about the injustice the Wei family army faced.
Luo Jin’an had protected the Wei family, but the enemies framed him for their deaths. Su Binglan knew the commoners would understand the play and stand on Luo Jin’an!s side. Her plays purpose was to bring light to these events.
“But you performed so wonderfully just now,” Su Wenxiu happily said, “We’ve never heard such passionate singing before.”
Shen Qiuhua smilingly added, “My daughter sounds amazing.”
Shen Mohen said, “Sister Binglan, I’ve watched plays before in the capital, but none can compare to yours.”
He was amazed at how good Su Binglan’s song was as she combined her singing with acting out a story, which everyone understood.
‘Sister?’
The Su brothers realized Shen Mohen had called Su Binglan his sister, and they felt envious, thinking he was trying to steal their sister away. Shen Mohen insisted on calling Su Binglan his sister even though she was his cousin.
Still, the Su brothers did not mind it, even though they were jealous initially.
Su Binglan was just as stunned when Shen Mohen called her “Sister Binglan.” She did not know Shen Mohen wanted nothing more than to build a bond with her.
After all, not everyone had a sister with such outstanding medical skills and capabilities.
It was also Luo Jin’an’s first time seeing Su Binglan’s play. He had to admit he was awe- struck just now as he had never seen anything so wonderful.
At that moment, he looked at his wife with a gentle expression as profound emotions threatened to pour from his eyes.
Su Binglan seemed to have sensed something as she talked to everyone. Immediately after, she looked at Luo Jin’an and locked eyes with him. She felt like she had gotten electrocuted, and her heart skipped a beat.
Yue Huachen regained his senses and went to the carriage to get his zither. Then he played the tune Su Binglan had just performed.
Yue Huachen possessed unmatched zither skills, and everyone enjoyed listening to him play. They could not help but indulge in the music.
Su Binglan bobbed along to Yue Huachen!s unquestionable zither-playing skills. When he finished, everyone applauded and praised him.
Yue Huachen raised his head to look at Su Binglan and saw her bobbing. He was stunned as his intuition grew exponentially.
He recalled Princess Lan Ruobing teaching him to play the zither while living in the deceased royal’s mansion. He knew she would bob along like Su Binglan if he had practiced and played well then.
However, their appearances differed, and Yue Huachen suspected he might be hallucinating.
‘Perhaps something has possessed me to consider such a possibility. Princess
Lan has already died, so why do I feel like Miss Su resembles her so much?’
“Now that I have a zither player, we should finalize things soon. I want it to be as lively as possible.”
This era had almost no entertainment. If there were a performance, Su Binglan felt everyone in the village should be able to watch. Even Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai were excited because they loved crowds.
Watching a play was something new for everyone in Su Teng Village. Su Binglan could imagine villagers from other villages traveling far and wide when they heard about her upcoming play.
“Where will everyone perform, Little Sister?” Su Wenzhe asked.”
Su Binglan answered, “We must build a stage for the actors to perform while the audience watches.’
After some thought, Su Fengmao said, “That requires a spacious place. The stage won’t be too big, but the space must accommodate the audience. Otherwise, they’ll have to cramp together.”
Su Binglan asked, “Why don’t we do it at the village’s entrance?”
Su Wenzhe agreed, “Sure, that place is big enough for an audience. It’s also next to Su Teng Market, where our shops are. Even though the embroidery shop and winery reside there, there’s still ample space beside it.
“l think building the stage there will be best since the area can accommodate a large audience.”
Su Binglan became wide-eyed when she heard that, saying, “Indeed, it’ll be much more convenient for my actors to change their clothes if I set up the stage next to the staff dormitory.”
Su Binglan’s stage performers were living at the staff dormitory. If she set up the stage there, it would be easier for them to change into various costumes.
Moreover, the area had ample space. Since Su Binglan had bought all that land, she had the final say about what she wanted to build there.
The family happily discussed these things, and everyone was excited.
Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao were in charge of cooking the rice cakes, and they had already finished doing so. Then Shen Qiuhua opened the lid and looked inside before putting red dots on them to make them look more appetizing.
She removed a few pieces from the pot and placed them in a big bowl. Immediately after, she took the big bowl to the heated brick platform, where everyone sat, saying, “The rice cakes are ready. Have some and tell me if you like them.”
“They smell so good!” Su Wenzhe picked up a rice cake and broke it into pieces for everyone. If one person ate one, they might be unable to finish, so the family ate slowly.
Liu Yinyin took another piece and broke it in two before blowing on them and giving them to her children. “They’re still a little hot, so eat them slowly.” Everyone took a bite and said it was delicious.
“Mother could only make a few rice cakes last year,” Su Wenzhe said emotionally, “We could only eat a few bites on New Year’s Day but couldn’t have them regularly. Since our businesses did well, we can eat as much as we want this year.”
Shen Mohen felt sorry for the family when he heard that. He never knew his aunt and her family had to endure poor conditions in the past.
‘It must’ve been tough for them. My father would be sad if I told him about that. He only hoped for Aunt Shen to live well.’
Su Binglan said, “Don’t overeat, everyone, The rice cakes will be more delicious after I make some vegetables..”
