Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Chapter 400: A Famous Actress (Part 2)

The Red Garden is the most famous theater in the capital. In the capital where new and old things gather, the popularity of the Red Garden is far more powerful than those dance halls and cinemas. In the six southern provinces, the most famous stars must be those movie stars, singers or pictorial stars, but the popularity of the most outstanding famous actors in Beijing is far from that of movie stars.

Among them, the Red Garden is the most popular place and most sought after by men, women and children in the capital.

The owner of Hongyuan, Mu Honglian, was the most famous actress in the capital twenty years ago. In the old newspapers in the early years, she even described this stunning famous actress as "a country and a city". Now twenty years have passed, although this famous actress of the past generation is no longer young, she is still a beautiful woman with still charm.

Leng Sa and his party entered the Red Garden in a mighty manner, and were immediately ushered into the best box that had been booked in advance.

Leng Sa's trip this time was full of ostentation, besides bringing Gong Sihe and Fu Yucheng, Xu Shaoming also followed. At the same time, Zhou Yan and Jiang Zhan personally accompanied a team of guards. Even the steward who had been in charge of reception in the Red Garden for many years was shocked by this spectacle.

Countless dignitaries, wealthy businessmen and businessmen have visited the Red Garden over the years, but there are not many people like this young lady with so many armed guards.

It looked very much like the nouveau riche local warlord who was full of style no matter where he went in the early years. It was inexplicably weird that such a scene was put on by a beautiful young lady.

Even the passing guests were frightened and wanted to back away when they saw this scene. The steward looked at Leng Sa who was sitting and drinking tea with a leisurely expression, and said cautiously, "Mrs. Fu, our Red Garden...is quite safe. All parties in the capital are willing to give us some face, and generally no one comes here to make trouble."

Leng Sa turned back and smiled at him, "I'm really sorry, it's not that I'm worried about Hong Yuan. It's just... before I went out, I suddenly had a premonition that there was going to be a fight today. You know, it's a disadvantage if there are fewer people fighting in groups."

The manager is speechless, so are you planning to fight this fight in the Red Garden?

"Okay, you go down first." A woman appeared at the door and said with a faint smile, "Madam Fu, I will entertain you."

The steward breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the person coming, and hurriedly retreated respectfully.

The woman who appeared at the door looked less than forty, wearing a coral red long gown, her long hair was pulled back in a bun, with two hairpins inserted between her hair, and a few tassels decorated with coral beads. With her footsteps swaying gently.

Even though she is no longer young, this is still a beautiful woman who is both moving and still. People can't help but want to know how stunning she must have been twenty years ago.

This woman is naturally the current boss of Hongyuan - Mu Honglian.

Mu Honglian glanced at the four people sitting in the room with a smile, and finally she cast her eyes on Leng Sa, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Fu's visit to the Red Garden is really splendid. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality." As expected of a famous actress in the past, her voice was soft and charming, with twists and turns, even a person like Leng Sa didn't feel his heart move.

Leng Sa smiled and said, "I am a layman, please forgive me if I offend you."

Mu Honglian didn't care, and smiled, "I know, Mrs. Fu doesn't like to listen to operas. Then let's talk somewhere else?"

Leng Sa smiled helplessly, "It's because I'm an ordinary person, I don't understand this."

Mu Honglian laughed, "Who in this capital would dare to say that Mrs. Fu is an ordinary person? It's a pity that I don't have a good voice now. If it was twenty years ago, I would have to sing a section for Mrs. Fu."

Leng Sa was puzzled, "Why?"

Mu Honglian said, "If Mrs. Fu changed her mind after listening to my play, wouldn't I be famous in Anxia in a short time?"

Leng Sa shook her head, "As long as An Xia knows a little bit of opera, who dares to say that Boss Mu is not famous all over the world?"

Mu Honglian laughed until her flowers trembled, "It's really interesting to talk to Mrs. Fu Shao, please come with me."

Mu Honglian directly led the four of them into the back hall, from the back hall, went downstairs, bypassed a rockery, and arrived at a gazebo in the garden.

The noise outside suddenly disappeared, and it seemed much quieter.

Leng Sa glanced at the entire garden, and couldn't help but give a good compliment.

The fact that Hongyuan can become the sacred place of Liyuan in the capital is not only because of the good drama, but also because of the beautiful scenery here.

Asking the guests to sit down, Mu Honglian waved back the person who brought the tea and poured the tea herself before smiling, "Mrs. Fu, don't worry, no one will come near here without my words."

Leng Sa smiled and said, "I don't care about this, I'm just afraid of causing trouble to Boss Mu."

Leng Sa sized up Mu Honglian and said, "Actually...Although I said I came to listen to the show, anyone with a heart can probably guess it. I think this is very dangerous. Why does Boss Mu have to let me come here with such a big fanfare?"

Mu Honglian sat on the edge of the gazebo, half leaning against the pillar behind her and smiled, "The lady next to you belongs to Xing Wei, right? Don't you know?"

Gong Sihe shook his head in a daze, "Know what?"

Mu Honglian sneered, and said: "Xing Wei is quite thoughtful. I had a falling out with them a year ago. Since I am still alive, it proves that they want to deal with me for a while. I'm afraid I can't do it. They are powerful, and my surname Mu has been around for so many years, and I am not a soft persimmon at the mercy of others."

When she said this, the sharpness between her brows concealed her original charm, which was rather charming.

Leng Sa couldn't help but sigh in her heart, such a beauty, such a temperament, is many times stronger than Xing Wei.

But such a beauty is obviously more difficult to control than Xing Wei, isn't this just a car overturn?

Gong Sihe looked at Mu Honglian in surprise, she really didn't know about it.

Mu Honglian looked at Leng Sa and sighed softly, "So, Mrs. Fu, I'm really sorry. I actually... want to use the Fu family. I also know... They can't do anything to me in a short time, but after a long time, I just want to use it. I'm afraid I can't beat those people. If you are not interested in our line of work, I'm afraid you don't know. This year, several theater troupes have risen in the capital. Our Red Garden...it's already a bit sunset, so I have to borrow some external forces .”

Leng Sa didn't take it seriously, and said calmly, "If we have no value to Boss Mu, then how can we talk about cooperation? So, Boss Mu means..."

Mu Honglian said proudly, "Since we have fallen out, let's be more straightforward. On the bright side, it is better than me to guard against someone plotting against me every day. If one day I really die, at least someone will die." Know how I died."

Leng Sa frowned, disapprovingly said, "Boss Mu doesn't have to be so extreme."

Mu Honglian sighed, "I chose to follow him for my own sake. For a person like me, no matter what happens, he deserves what he deserves, but it's nothing."

As if thinking of something, she looked at Gong Sihe and said, "Speaking of which, although there are many women around him, there are not many women who are as stupid as your teacher. At least you seem to be smarter than her."

Gong Sihe's face was slightly gloomy, although her relationship with Xing Wei is not as good as before, but she is not very willing to hear others mocking Xing Wei in front of her.

And still mocking Xing Wei's feelings.

Gong Sihe has followed Xing Wei for so many years, regardless of Xing Wei's other aspects, but compared to his feelings for that person, Xing Wei can be said to be truly devoted.

The reason why Gong Sihe fell into it may not be because of Xing Wei, at first she just didn't understand why her respected teacher was so obsessed with one person?

Mu Honglian didn't talk much about Xing Wei, and said in a deep voice, "I grew up in an opera troupe, and since I was a child, apart from practicing kung fu, I just watched those brothers and sisters... Everyone in the world says that actors are ruthless and whores are meaningless. What kind of true feelings do people have for an opera singer. If someone hugs you today, you will be trampled into the mud tomorrow. It is not uncommon to meet a scumbag if you are unlucky. Sometimes speaking...it is worse than Louzi The girl in the movie is at ease. I’ve watched it a lot, and I’ve wanted to get rid of this kind of life since I was a child, and he...is the first person to give me this hope.”

"Second Master Zhang?" Leng Sa said.

Mu Honglian admitted generously, "Yes. I was too young to be on stage at that time, so I met him in this garden, which was not called Hongyuan at that time. He often came here during that time, and others were chasing him. He is the only one who comes to the back to talk to me every day. I thought he could take me out of this place, but then I found out... How could the second son of the Zhang family marry an actor? Let alone marry, Even people like concubines look down on people like us. Later, he married a girl from the right family, but before getting married, he bought the whole theater troupe and gave it to me."

The four people present were all quietly listening to Mu Honglian's past, and when she spoke, her expression was very calm, as if she was not talking about her own affairs.

Mu Honglian said with a smile, "I was still too young at that time. For a long time, I thought that we really loved each other, but we couldn't be together because of my bad background. He treated me well, and the troupe gave him Me, I was able to become popular so quickly because of his secret contributions. He even helped me deal with some troublemakers."

Speaking of this, Mu Honglian's expression gradually sank, "I didn't realize until later that the Hongyuan was mine on the surface, but it's hard to say who I listened to in the dark. I didn't use some connections until later. I found out about Xing Wei. I gritted my teeth at the time, thinking that it would be better for me to be my own decision than being used as a puppet. So I directly confronted him and told him that I was willing to help him do what he wanted to do, but how did Hongyuan develop? You have to listen to my management. He didn’t trust me very much at first, and it took me more than two years to really control the Red Garden.”

Leng Sa was a little puzzled, "If that's the case, why did you fall out with him?"

Mu Honglian leaned against the pillar and closed her eyes slightly, "I've helped him with some things over the years, and although there are many of them that are not well-known, I feel that I am still a human being."

"In the past few years, they have always wanted to give away the girls under my command. It's fine if they want to, and those who don't want to use force. I stopped everything I could, but there will always be a day when I can't stop .I even want to select some children for us to teach. It doesn’t matter whether they are suitable for this bowl of rice. What do these children want to do after teaching them? We are opera actors, and I am also an opera garden here. It’s not a kiln! Last year was around this time. I have a brother and sister here who are the most proud apprentices of my senior sister. They have been on stage for a few times and they are already on fire. We also plan to focus on training and make them the new stage of Hongyuan. Zhuzi. I didn’t expect... I went out to do some errands and came back. He sent people to take the two children out, and they came back lying down two days later. My senior sister treated these two children as if they were her own, because my senior sister died in less than a month gone."

Holding the handkerchief tightly with one hand, Mu Honglian looked sideways at Leng Sa with reddish eyes and said, "At that time, I understood that he is no longer a human being, he is a lunatic, a devil!"
