Mr. Zhang Jiqing smiled kindly.
"Xiao Guo, you have a good disciple. Xiao Bai is handsome and efficient. He has the demeanor of a gentleman.”
Old Guo was also quite gratified. Actually, before Lu Bai came, he had been quite nervous. After all, Lu Bai had retired from the crosstalk world, so he was no longer considered a member of the folk arts circle. If Lu Bai did not agree, as a master, he could not do anything.
Old Guo knew that Lu Bai was giving him face by agreeing to this matter. As for the responsibility of promoting traditional arts, who would believe it…
Thinking about it, Old Guo sighed. Xiao Bai had only left Deyun for a short period of time. Not to mention that he was doing well, he could even nurture Deyun now. Old Guo did not dare to say anything about other disciples, but after taking in Lu Bai as his disciple in this life, he did not become a master in vain.
"Xiao Guo, Xiao Bai…"
"Twenty-three years old.”
Mr. Zhang Jiqing looked at Lu Bai from head to toe. It was like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law. The more he looked at him, the more satisfied he was.
"She's a year older than our Xin 'er. If you ask me, these two children are a match made in heaven. Xiao Bai doesn't have a girlfriend yet, right?”
Well, as expected, old people like to matchmake young people. Mr. Zhang Jiqing was happy and started to matchmake Lu Bai and Li Xin.
"Sir!"
When Li Xin heard this, her little face turned red. She wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Old Guo was also stunned when he heard this.
In fact, he felt that Li Xin was not a bad girl. She was a Kunqu opera singer and had a gentle and refined temperament. She was really suitable for his disciple who had the style of a modest gentleman.
Speaking of this, Old Guo was actually a little anxious. He had naturally seen the scandal between Lu Bai and Yang Xiaomi yesterday.
Old Guo was not satisfied with Yang Xiaomi. Firstly, she was older than Lu Bai, and secondly, she was too domineering. She was not a good candidate for a wife.
"Hehe, Sir, this is not the past. Now, it depends on the young people themselves.”
She thought that Mr. Zhang Jiqing was just being polite, but she didn't expect the old lady to be serious.
Li Xin could be considered the successor of the new generation of Kunqu opera. Since she was young, the Kunqu opera masters had high hopes for her. They said that she was a boudoir that appeared once every 30 years. Although this girl had entered the entertainment industry, she still had a good relationship with the Kunqu opera world. The old masters considered themselves as her elders.
"I think it's really not bad. Look, both children are from the folk arts world and have a common language. Xiao Bai is handsome and elegant, but our hearts aren't bad either!”
It was impossible to say that Zhang Jiqing had no utilitarian-minded. Usually, when a family chose a son-in-law, they had to see if the young man had a house or a car. It was all the same.
Lu Bai was a young man with impeccable qualities in all aspects. Moreover, he was developing so well now. If he really became the son-in-law of the Kunqu opera industry, wouldn't the Kunqu opera industry have a backer in the future?
"Xin 'er, what do you think?"
After all, Mr. Zhang Jiqing was old, and his mind was still old-fashioned. He felt that it was the parents 'orders and the matchmaker's words that should be decided by the elders.
Li Xin was so embarrassed that she almost fainted. How could they matchmake each other like this the moment they met? Although, although Lu Bai was indeed very good…but I don't care about my face…
"I…I'll go out for a while…"
Li Xin really couldn't stay any longer. She secretly glanced at Lu Bai, who was acting as if nothing had happened, then lowered her head and ran out with a red face.
"Hey, this girl! You're so thin-skinned…"
Mr. Zhang Jiqing was a little embarrassed. In fact, she knew that this was not a good idea. She had used too much force, but it was now or never. A young man like Lu Bai was hard to come by. Li Xin had a gentle personality and was a little slow to warm up. If she had to rely on herself to get along with Lu Bai, how long would it take?
That was why Mr. Zhang Jiqing seemed to be in a hurry. If this matter could really be completed, the Kunqu opera industry would be able to breathe a sigh of relief. Li Xin would also be able to find a good man, and she, a Kunqu opera master, would be able to close her eyes even if she died.
" Little White, go and see your junior sister. Don't blame Mister for being long-winded. Your junior sister is a good girl. She has been under my Kunqu opera since she was a child, but we haven't had a relationship yet…"
Normally, when faced with such a blatant matchmaking by an elder, the girl would be shy, and the young man would most likely be shy as well.
On the other hand, Lu Bai was calm throughout the whole process, as if this matter was not meant for him. He did not panic at all. His skin was as thick as a city wall. However, it was also his steady performance that made Mr. Zhang Jiqing even more satisfied.
This young man was not ordinary!
"Hurry up and go."
"Alright."
Lu Bai was urged to go out and look for Li Xin.
In fact, he was not pretending to be calm. He really did not take this matter seriously. It was just a matchmaking. What was there to be nervous about? If he was unhappy, he could just do it secretly and go against it.
Lu Bai found Li Xin, who was as flustered as a little rabbit, on the De Yun Sky Terrace. When Li Xin saw Lu Bai, her face turned red again.
Initially, when she first saw Lu Bai, she only had feelings of admiration in her heart and did not think of anything else. However, although her teacher's words made her feel a little ashamed, it also gave her a small sprout in her heart.
Lu Bai was gentle and elegant, with outstanding talent and the most likable appearance. It would be strange if the lady did not feel uneasy.
After finding Li Xin, Lu Bai did not say anything rashly. Instead, he stood on the rooftop and smoked calmly.
Li Xin secretly peeked at Lu Bai's side profile and felt a little flustered. This was the first time she had met someone like Lu Bai. From the outside, one could not tell what Lu Bai was thinking. This person seemed to never lose his composure.
Perhaps this was the old saying that a person with a thunderous chest and a calm face could be worshipped as a general. But then again, such a person was really reassuring.
"Senior Brother, Mister Zhang is old, he's just spouting nonsense…"
"Yes."
"Senior Brother, let's leave our contact information. We'll…we'll contact you about the Kunqu opera program later.”
"Alright."
Li Xin had always been a young lady from Jiangnan. She was slow to warm up, but Lu Bai was not warm at all, let alone slow to warm up…The two of them stood on the rooftop for a long time without saying much.
However, the two of them stood quietly side by side and looked at the sunset in the distance for a long time. From afar, the man was tall and the girl was cute and cute. It really looked like that…
In the evening, Old Guo treated Mr. Zhang and Li Xin to a meal. Master Qian, Zhang Wenhao from De Yun were all present, so Lu Bai naturally could not be absent.
Although Old Guo had been denounced as an outlier by the mainstream crosstalk crowd, he had no qualms about his etiquette when facing the seniors of the folk arts world.
People in the folk arts world would talk about professional topics during gatherings. After eating and drinking, Old Guo took out Lu Bai's Storyteller, the current Deyun theme song. It also had some meaning to show off.
" Teahouses by the roadside…Shadows scattered…Two or three shouts came from the street…Fanning in front of people…striking the table…"
Mr. Zhang Jiqing also praised Lu Bai after listening to him. He thought even more highly of Lu Bai, this junior. To be able to combine crosstalk and pop music so perfectly, this was a great ability.
It's a pity that we don't have a genius like Xiaobai in Kunqu opera…"
Old Guo was a little smug to be able to make Qu Yi's seniors praise him so much. In addition, he had a few glasses of wine today, so he chuckled.
"I'll get Xiaobai to write a song for our Kunqu opera industry…"
"Really?"
Old Guo was actually being polite, but Mr. Zhang Jiqing wasn't being polite at all…
