Chapter 15 Backup Singer

Liu Xiaomin remembered clearly that Xiu Xiu had a good voice.

When I was in middle school, I participated in a solo recital at the school, and even the music teacher praised her repeatedly, saying that Xiu Xiu was extremely talented and that she was a good talent in music.

But such a good prospect gave up the prospect of studying music after getting engaged to Xu Jiaxing.

The reason is that Xu Jiaxing wants Xiuxiu to stay at home to support her husband and raise children, and does not want Xiuxiu to show up in public after marriage.

In this way, Xiuxiu gave up further studies in music for Xu Jiaxing.

"Originally, you could have been the same as me, or even better than me..." Liu Xiaomin couldn't help but sigh, feeling sorry for the loss of a musical talent.

"Ahem..." Xiuxiu drank some water to calm down her shock. She didn't expect that the original owner had vocal skill points.

What can be done?

She was an agent in her previous life and had never performed any talents!

Liu Xiaomin grabbed Xiuxiu's hand and said in a sincere tone: "Xiuxiu, we are good friends. Even if I come all the way from town to your house to find you, you still have to do me this favor!"

Now Xiu Xiu couldn't refuse. After hesitating for a few seconds, Xiu Xiu could only nod and said: "Okay. But if I don't sing well, don't blame me. After all, I haven't sung for so many years."

Liu Xiaomin nodded repeatedly, thinking that this was Xiuxiu's humble words.

Xiu Xiu has a gifted voice. Even if she doesn't sing for several years, she will still amaze everyone when she opens her mouth!

After Liu Xiaomin left, Xiuxiu immediately began to practice her voice by imitating the way singers open their voices.

Fortunately, the original owner did have the skill to sing. Xiu Xiu was able to mobilize this skill of the original owner without spending much effort. After finishing the song, Xiu Xiu herself was very satisfied.

In order to make the performance more exciting, Xiu Xiu specially entered the space and drank a bottle of water from the creek.

Stream water has special effects, making her voice clearer and more penetrating. She will drink some stream water to moisten her throat before going on stage tomorrow.

This is Xiuxiu’s first time coming to Chunjiang Opera House.

As soon as I arrived at the art troupe, I saw Bai Jingjing.

Bai Jingjing's arm is still hanging. It seems that she hasn't fully recovered from the beating she received from Xiu Xiu last time, but her face is quite beautiful.

Seeing Xiuxiu, Bai Jingjing's face instantly turned pale, and she subconsciously hid behind the female companion next to her: "Liu Xiuxiu? Isn't it enough that you broke one of my arms? You even chased the art troupe to beat me?"

Bai Jingjing was left with a psychological shadow after being beaten at the bun shop last time. She had nightmares about Xiuxiu beating her every day.

I actually saw Xiuxiu in the art troupe today. I thought Xiuxiu came to the art troupe to beat her. My first reaction was fear. I thought Xiuxiu came to the art troupe to beat her.

Unexpectedly, Xiuxiu ignored her at all.

"Sister, I'm taking Liu Xiaomin's place in tonight's chorus. Where is the dressing room?" Xiu Xiu found an older sister with an armband from the art troupe and asked.

This eldest sister, whose surname is Zhang, is a director of the cultural troupe and one of the people in charge of tonight's performance. She had heard Liu Xiaomin talk about this before.

She looked Xiuxiu up and down, and was very satisfied with Xiuxiu's appearance and height. She dressed up to have a good image suitable for the performance.

It seems that Liu Xiaomin is quite good at finding people.

Director Zhang greeted Xiuxiu: "Liu Xiuxiu, right? You come with me."

With that said, he led Liu Xiuxiu to the dressing room.

A young female makeup artist is busy applying makeup to the actors.

The makeup technology of this era is still very backward, and the makeup is too thick. Xiuxiu went out for a while, found a place where no one noticed, and searched for her own cosmetics in the space. When she returned to the dressing room, she had already started to use her own cosmetics.

I put on my own makeup.

Bai Jingjing and her two female companions also came to the dressing room. They will also participate in the chorus tonight.

Knowing that Liu Xiuxiu came to the art troupe not to beat her, Bai Jingjing, who had forgotten the pain after being beaten, gradually became bolder again.

She had just asked Xu Jiaxing to come to the art troupe to listen to tonight's chorus. She wanted Xu Jiaxing to see Liu Xiuxiu make a fool of herself!

Bai Jingjing's two female companions also made sour remarks.

"It's so funny that she actually put makeup on herself. Don't make yourself look like a tabby cat!"

"Haha, can a village girl put on makeup as good as our Jingjing?"

The two female companions deliberately spoke loudly, which attracted the attention of the people in the dressing room to the newcomer Xiuxiu.

Even the makeup artist who had been busy stopped what he was doing and looked curiously at the new girl in the dressing room.

This girl is tall and has very three-dimensional facial features, especially her big black eyes, which are watery and look even more affectionate under the light of the dressing room. If you look at her accidentally, you will fall in.

The make-up artist's hands have touched hundreds of faces, and with just one look, you can tell that the makeup of the backup singer is absolutely stunning.

It's just that this girl's skin is a little tanned, but it's not as good as the girls in the art troupe. They don't see the sun all day long, and they know how to take care of themselves. All of them are white and tender.

Xiuxiu concentrated on putting on makeup and ignored the jeers around her.

The cosmetics and makeup tools of later generations are more complete than this era, and she also learned makeup tips from some makeup bloggers, which can skillfully cover facial flaws, make facial lines smoother, and make the makeup more perfect.

Xiu Xiu put on her makeup and went to the dressing room to change into her performance clothes.

After finishing her work, she took out the stream water she had prepared in advance from her bag and took two sips of it. Her throat suddenly felt soothing.

Director Zhang was already urging him outside: "Hurry up and get ready, the performance is about to start!"

The girls in the art troupe were suddenly in a hurry. The ones who were gossiping, having fun, and eating snacks were all anxious now.

There began to be some sounds coming and going——

"Where's my hat?"

"Where's my other high heel?"

"Xiao Tian, ​​please give me some makeup on your lips. I accidentally rubbed off the lipstick just now."

Bai Jingjing and her two female companions also hurriedly changed their outfits.

Director Zhang looked at the messy dressing room and couldn't help but reprimanded: "You guys, you just had so much time and didn't clean it up. You had to wait until the last minute to be as busy as ants! I'll give you a lesson another day.

Education class, regulate your behavior!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a woman walking towards her like a beautiful swan.

The woman is wearing a performance costume, with exquisite and elegant makeup, and a graceful posture. She is like a shining star, standing out in the chaotic dressing room.

Director Zhang stared at her small and delicate face. This woman's face was so beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes away.

Who is this girl? Why is she so beautiful? She looks like a fairy descending to earth!

Compared with her, those delicate and beautiful girls in the art troupe seemed to have lost their color in an instant!

When she came closer, she stared at Director Zhang with a pair of watery eyes, smiled and said lightly: "Director Zhang, I'm ready."

Director Zhang suddenly realized, oh, now that I think about it, this girl is none other than Liu Xiuxiu!
