After his wife Li died, she continued to marry Wang. On the wedding day, guests were packed. Among the guests, one person caused a discussion: "Why is Cui here? He never intervened! " "Yes, Cui, a notoriously stingy man, why did you send a generous gift?" A nosy man asked Zhang Shouchen why.
Cui Ziming, an old pumpkin, is a famous funny drummer. Cui is a very quiet, honest and frank person. He makes a living by busking, never wins by comparison, and is free and easy. I have something at home, and I don't know if I will meet anyone else. Others have something to do and don't participate. Therefore, among some artists, it gives people a stingy impression.
Cui, both jugglers, only performed on the same stage, but did not associate with each other. The communication between them should start with the church meeting.
When Zhang Shouchen goes to church, he will appear as an actor, led by an agent (intermediary).
Only the old lady Li mentioned above is special and doesn't need it. Therefore, every time I go to the Li family party, I appear as an agent and an actor.
Every actor in the church meeting must be selected by an agent. I admire Cui's personality and appreciate Cui's art, so I invited Cui to go. In this way, there is a story between them.
At the Lijiatang meeting, Cui played first and last. After the performance, Cui Ziming walked up to Zhang Shouchen and said, "Chen Shou, I'll go first." Ready to leave.
Zhang Shouchen stopped Cui and said, "Uncle Cui, don't go."
Cui asked, "There's something else."
Zhang Shouchen said, "What's the matter? How can you leave without taking the money? "
According to the so-called rules of the church, actors leave immediately after the performance and must collect remuneration from their agents the next day. Fraud goes without saying. Cui has been an artist for many years and knows this "principle". Hearing Zhang Shouchen mention the reward, he quickly waved and said, "No, no, Chen Shou, I'll get it tomorrow." Insist on going.
Grabbed Cui and said, "No way. Take it tomorrow, and I'll leave it behind. Please be patient with your snacks, wait a little longer, and take the money before you go. "
After the family paid the reward, Zhang Shouchen gave Cui Ziming the reward he deserved and said, "OK, you go." Cui has been an artist for decades, and it is hard to encounter such a situation. He was so moved that he didn't know what to say and said, "This money is all mine."
Zhang Shouchen smiled: "You earned it yourself, but it's all yours! It's getting late, go home quickly. "
It's past midnight since I left the Li family. He walked out of the Li family gate. It was very cold outside. Suddenly, he saw a shadow shaking not far ahead. Shadow saw Zhang Shouchen out of the door, and Zhang Shouchen was greeted by him. After careful observation, it turned out to be Cui! Zhang Shouchen asked in surprise, "Uncle Cui, why don't you go home!"
Cui Ziming said, "Chen Shou, I am waiting for you."
Zhang Shouchen asked incredulously, "It's so late, and it's still so cold. What are you waiting for me? "
Apprenticeship and teaching art
Cui Ziming said: "Chen Shou, the more I think about it, the more insecure I feel. I usually earn a few dollars when I go to church. Today, I earned 30 dollars. How can I get so much money! " While speaking, he took out the bounty and a few dollars from his pocket and said, "Chen Shou, since this money was given to me, I am very grateful. Well, here's six dollars. Take it. Too much money. " Too much money is the commission that brokers deserve.
Zhang Shouchen looked at the honest old man who was frightened by life. He couldn't help sighing and saying, "Uncle Cui, I don't want too much money. Can I have a party alone? You helped me. You earned it yourself, so you deserve it. I earn more than you, so I can't take your money. Don't worry, I'll call you at the next meeting. Hurry home, don't freeze. "
Cui thanked Ziming again and again and left.
