At the door of a large household, a maid was chatting casually with a little boy in her hand, and it wasn't long before another male servant from the house came over. The two people's eyes flowed, and their affection was long, and it turned out that the two people were actually lovers.
The little couple met and played, which was normal, but the maid ignored the little boy in her hand, and her hand shook, and the boy fell to the ground with his head down. At this point, the maid could have made a big mistake, because this little boy was the only son of the lord of the house, and she was just the nanny of the house.
This large family name is Yu, is the residence of the famous Peking Opera master Yu Shuyan, and the little boy who was thrown down is Yu Shuyan's only son in this life.
The only son was thrown to death by the nanny
No one can question Yu Shuyan's achievements in Peking Opera, but his life was very unhappy, not only ending his career early, but also his family passed away one after another.
In the early years, he married the daughter of Chen Delin, a Tsing Yi Taidou, and although the two of them mixed oil in honey and raised eyebrows, Yu Shuyan was a little uneasy.
He raised another girlfriend outside, after the wife gave birth to a pair of daughters, the wife can no longer have children, in order to solve his regret of childlessness, Yu Shuyan and the girlfriend who was raised outside the home had a son, until the son was three years old to take back to the house.
Yu Shuyan accepted his son, but he also respected his wife, he did not choose to take a concubine, but instead used money to send his girlfriend, and his wife was not angry with him.
However, what Yu Shuyan did not think was that this only son also let the nanny fall, and after falling head down, the little boy was seriously injured and died and died.
Yu Shuyan, who was extremely sad, did not punish the nanny, but only drove her away and gave her more money to live.
After the death of his son, his wife also died of illness.
Even if Yu Shuyan remarried her, he never had a son again, and until his death, no son was sent to him.
Luxurious worshippers receive female apprentices
After Yu Shuyan's health gradually deteriorated, he once accepted two apprentices, one was Li Shaochun and the other was Meng Xiaodong.
Both of them had strong material strength, and Meng Xiaodong had to give good things to the teacher almost every three to five minutes, and with the support of Du Yuesheng behind her, a luxurious feast was held.
Li Shaochun spent thousands of oceans to give gifts to Yu Shuyan and his family and servants, and also paid a large amount of tuition.
Of course, these two apprentices were not only appreciated by Yu Shuyan by materials, they were all selected by Yu Shuyan, of which Meng Xiaodong was especially pampered.
Although Meng Xiaodong is a female apprentice, but extremely talented, Yu Shuyan can be described as a teacher to her, hoping that she can become the inheritor of the Yu Sect, Meng Xiaodong also lived up to the trust, and soon broke out of his own fame.
But as a woman, Meng Xiaodong was not only questioned by the Peking Opera circle, but also suffered from the jealousy of Yu Shuyan's wife.
As early as when Yu Shuyan's first wife was still alive, Yu Shuyan wanted to take Meng Xiaodong as an apprentice, but his first wife had a resolute attitude and absolutely disagreed.
After the death of his wife, Yu Shuyan was able to get what he wanted, but Yu Shuyan's second wife still did not agree, and was suspicious and jealous everywhere.
In order to reassure his wife and to calm the gossip, Yu Shuyan gave a lecture to Meng Xiaodong every time, and he had to follow his two daughters around him to avoid criticism.
It is difficult to cure the disease at a young age
The root of Yu Shuyan's body had been branded as early as childhood, and because of this, he ended his career early.
When Yu Shuyan was young, he would have blood in the stool after exertion, which was already an early symptom of many diseases, but Yu Shuyan himself did not care, not only did not go to the treatment, but also because the blood in the stool was a little embarrassing, and did not tell anyone.
After this, Yu Shuyan did not pay attention to his own physical health, not only busy singing all day and all night, but also spending time and drinking, and finally even causing vomiting blood and throat damage.
After that, Yu Shuyan began to tighten his habits, and his voice gradually improved, reaching the peak of his career at the age of 35.
At this time, Yu Shuyan's body had a big problem, his urinary function was abnormal, he had to go to the hospital to dredge, and the blood in the stool was serious, and then the body deteriorated, even if he was recuperating, there was no way to let his voice return to normal.
Because of his health, he had to say goodbye to the career he loved and could only perform once in a while.
In 1937, Yu Shuyan sang the last scene of his life, completely bid farewell to the stage, he wanted to start to concentrate on treatment, after being diagnosed with bladder cancer, Yu Shuyan turned to Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and finally chose to use Western medical methods.
However, at this time, the treatment was harmed by quacks, not only did not cure, but was deceived into saying that the body was already well. Yu Shuyan was convinced, and after being discharged from the hospital, he continued to abuse his body and smoked a lot of cigarettes, a habit that even spread to his apprentice Meng Xiaodong.
In 1941, Yu Shuyan's health deteriorated sharply, and he went to the Union Hospital for diagnosis and treatment, and the previous means of quacks were also exposed, but at this time, the quacks had already returned to China and could no longer be found.
Yu Shuyan's bladder cancer has turned into malignant, fortunately, in the Union Hospital for rapid surgery, Dr. Xie helped Yu Shuyan to undergo surgery to remove, but I don't know why after Dr. Xie's treatment, he got better quickly, and the recurrence was also menacing.
In 1944, Yu Shuyan had severe symptoms of blood in the stool and died on May 19 of the same year.
In the days before his death, his apprentice Meng Xiaodong and his family served around, and Yu Shuyan also left a will for the distribution of property, mainly to distribute existing deposits.
However, the most precious thing on Yu Shuyan's body are those relics of the Peking Opera industry, and these precious relics Yu Shuyan did not explain, according to the theory, it should be given to the apprentice Meng Xiaodong.
However, on the day of the funeral, Yu Shuyan's wife did something that provoked public anger, she burned Yu Shuyan's Peking Opera relics on the spot, leaving no one behind, and the people present were in an uproar.
brief summary:
Yu Shuyan's wife did not know much about Peking Opera, so she did not know much about the value of the things in her hands, and she did this for only one purpose, that is, not to let her husband's things fall into the hands of Meng Xiaodong, and her resentment towards Meng Xiaodong had a long history, and she did not believe that the two of them had any innocent relationship. The so-called master-apprentice relationship is definitely a joke of covering up the ears and stealing the bell.
These precious relics were lost in the woman's jealousy, and Meng Xiaodong could only cry with regret.
