Chapter 93 Romeo and Juliet
Classes officially started on the 5th, and He Shu still followed his previous plan and did morning jogging and exercises every day.
I never missed any of the classes I chose, and in addition to participating in club activities, I also applied for an off-campus driving school in the remaining time. It can be said that my schedule for the rest of the time was fully scheduled.
Feng Haoxiang asked He Shu to submit an application to join the party with him. It is said that this process will require a probation period of one to three years.
It is not clear whether it can be approved, but Feng Haoxiang said that this is very necessary and it is worth it even if it is a little troublesome.
Although Feng Haoxiang seems to be unruly on weekdays, he is very positive in all aspects and has his own plans.
It can be seen from the fact that Deng Hongyuan and Li Mu always spend their free time playing, while he studies in the dormitory or organizes activities in the group with his mobile phone.
And even though Feng Haoxiang looks the least outstanding in the dormitory, he is the monitor of Class 13, and is deeply loved by the counselors and other students.
Even though He Shu's grades were good and he never missed classes, he was not proactive enough in expressing himself, nor did he have the enthusiasm towards people like Feng Haoxiang, so he never served as a class leader.
This actually has an impact on He Shu's university life, because going to university is equivalent to entering society.
The relationship between students and counselors is no longer just a simple teacher-student relationship, and a student's qualification will no longer be represented by grades alone.
Social skills, organizational skills and a series of other abilities are the basic requirements for judging a student's overall quality .
He Shu has many shortcomings, the most important of which is his personality when interacting with others. He is too slow to warm up.
But his only advantage is also quite obvious, that is, he will always stick to his chosen goals and do them seriously.
He joined the drama troupe at that time in order to improve his expressive skills, so he actively participated in every troupe's activities.
But if he is allowed to go on stage, he will feel a little stuck.
The troupe is currently rehearsing "Romeo and Juliet", a play that has been performed so many times by other troupes that there is really nothing new about it.
But it is not easy to come up with a new script. It has to be interesting and meaningful. The screenwriters in the troupe always say that they have no inspiration.
The male and female protagonists were decided, and Lingzi arranged a role for He Shu. He played Juliet's cousin (Tybalt). He didn't have many scenes and was soon killed by Romeo.
But this was He Shu's first time to perform on stage. Even though he played a villain and had few lines, He Shu was still very nervous.
There were no problems during rehearsal
But his expression was unnatural and he recited his lines like a textbook.
A drama is different from TV dramas and movies. Because the duration is short and it needs to express emotions, the body movements and expressions are often a bit exaggerated.
This is what He Shu lacks the most. Fortunately, the play will be rehearsed for a few weeks before it is performed.
He Shu practiced whenever he had free time, and occasionally when he met Xia Miao, he would perform his part for Xia Miao alone.
Every time Xia Miao felt that He Shu's performance was very funny, but she would always point out the problems seriously, so He Shu made rapid progress.
Life on campus is busy and interesting. Apart from having more courses in my freshman year, the theoretical knowledge is actually not that difficult.
It was November in a blink of an eye. In addition to basic courses, the class also had many more organized activities.
He Shu's time became even tighter. In order to have more time to take care of those chores, he got up at 5 o'clock every morning and went to bed at 11:30 at night.
I don’t even have much time to date Xia Miao, and we can only communicate by sending messages on the phone.
The temperature was already a bit cold in November. He Shu received a call from his grandfather's house. It was his aunt, who said she had knitted a sweater for him and asked him to take time to visit.
He Shu said that he didn't have time recently, but he didn't expect that his aunt would show up at school the next day with a lot of bags.
My aunt and my uncle also came with me.
The uncle wanted to visit his dormitory and deliver some things to him. He Shu couldn't refuse, so he took them back.
There was no one in the dormitory at that time. My aunt asked He Shu which bed he was in and took out all the things he had brought.
A light brown knitted cardigan with a white shirt underneath is perfect for this season.
There are also sweaters and woolen waistcoats, several of which are knitted in different colors.
There were also knitted pants to wear inside. My aunt said that when it gets colder, she would ask He Shu to wear them inside.
My aunt asked He Shu to try out the size of each piece. She estimated the size of each piece and was afraid that it would not fit.
But the sweater would look better if it was a little looser, and it fit He Shu well, so his aunt was satisfied.
After asking He Shu which bed he would sleep on and which table he would use, my aunt took a look and originally wanted to help He Shu clean up.
But he saw that He Shu's seat was neater and cleaner than others. Even his quilt was folded into a tofu shape, just like during military training.
The uncle saw this and felt more and more that He Shu was suitable to join the army.
However, when my uncle saw the model tank he gave to He Shu placed on the desks of other classmates, he became unhappy again.
I asked directly: "Don't you like the toy I gave you?"
He Shu pursed his lips and said, "My roommate liked it very much, so I gave it to him."
"Huh, you're very generous."
He Shu didn't say anything. When his aunt saw the tank, her joy faded.
He Shu thought they would go back after seeing the dormitory, but his uncle looked at the time and asked He Shu to treat them to a meal in the cafeteria.
This naturally could not be refused, so the three of them went to the cafeteria at mealtime. The aunt saw that the dishes in the cafeteria were quite rich, and she was relieved to know that He Shu was eating well.
At the dinner table, my uncle said that my aunt would be back in a few days and asked him to go back then so that the family could have a meal together.
Thinking of the aunt who looked very much like his mother, He Shu nodded and agreed.
After dinner, my uncle took my aunt away.
He Shu sent them to the parking lot. His aunt held He Shu's hand all the way and asked him if he had any money.
She took out her wallet and tried to give him some money, but He Shu refused to take it. Seeing this, his aunt did not force him. She just kept telling him to eat well, dress warmly, and not work too hard...
She kept nagging like a mother who was worried about her son.
Only after his uncle's car drove away did He Shu slowly turn around and walk back to the dormitory.
He Shu has very complicated feelings towards his grandfather's relatives.
He longs for family affection, but also feels that he will be controlled if he is too close. It is really difficult to make a choice.
Soon, the day for the play "Romeo and Juliet" to be performed arrived.
Before the date was confirmed, He Shu used his spare time every day to help the troupe distribute flyers. When Xia Miao found out, she specifically asked for some and took them to Dadu College to distribute.
She wanted to help He Shu and the others sell more tickets, and ended up attracting quite a few people to watch the show.
She brought Zhou Xiaoduo and Li Qiutong with her. Since that day, Xia Miao had completely severed her relationship with Sun Yuanyuan, and naturally would not let her come to such occasions.
He Shu appears later, and the romantic plot has nothing to do with him.
He Shu changed his clothes and wore an exaggerated wig, white half-knee socks, a crudely made imitation of ancient European clothing with a belt that covered his buttocks like a skirt.
It seems ridiculous, but their budget is limited, and it is already good enough that even a minor supporting role like him has a complete set of costumes and props.
The whole play lasted two hours, He Shu only appeared for a few minutes, and Xia Miao kept craning her neck waiting.
But she was also attracted by the love at first sight of Romeo and Juliet. Even though this play has been performed countless times, Xia Miao is moved every time.
Because even though she fell in love with He Shu at first sight, she believed that her love with He Shu would not end up in tragedy like in the drama, and they would love each other until old age.
It was the scene where He Shu came on stage, had a conflict with the boys, and was then killed.
He Shu walked out arrogantly with another actor. Xia Miao had seen He Shu's rehearsal and he was not wearing makeup at that time.
Now seeing the drastically changed He Shu, the emotions she had just put into watching the drama disappeared, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
Zhou Xiaoduo and the others were also laughing so hard because He Shu was so different from his usual self.
He Shu pretended not to hear, spoke his lines seriously, cooperated with the male lead, and finally successfully completed the performance, and was killed on the stage ...
