Hungry Ghost Ritual Page #3

Let's continue

Among those people

I think Uncle Qun and Brother Kwai

don't really like me

Don't read too much into it,

Uncle Qun isn't that complex

As for Brother Kwai, that's his normal demeanor

And because of that, we broke up

I heard you came back because

your business went bust there

That's right

I was running a publishing business there

But I misplaced my trust

Coupled with the fact that I'm an outsider

I got cheated by a middle man,

lost my whole company

I came from a very poor family

I joined the opera troupe since young,

and am still here now

That's not true, at least you're the main cast now

Even though I'm no expert

But seems to me you're very good at what you do

At least it sounds that way to me

That shows you do know a thing

or two about the opera

Shouldn't be a problem for you to take over

Are you alright?

Good night

Xiu Yin, are you okay?

Sorry, have you seen Xiu Yin around?

Haven't seen her come back

Anything I can help?

Help me finish this "Ji" character

Sure

Hey, he'll get scolded

Hey, what are you doing?

Can you please show some respect to

the troupe's property?

What's with the leg?

Kit Zai, come help me with this

Who sealed the "mouth" of the character "Ji "?

Does he meant for us to have

difficulties singing even with a mouth?

Speak up

it was written by the stand-in troupe master

This is the unwritten rule of the industry

What you did undermined traditional customs

I'm sorry

Sorry for this, I'll slowly fill you in on all these

Come, the dishes are here, let's eat

Before that, I'd like to say something

What happened just now. I don't ever

want to see it happening again

I understand that it's tough to accept

An outsider as your troupe master

But I'll give it my all

Once my father has been discharged

I'll hand everything back to him

And you can act as if we've never met before

I'm just here to work

Let's begin our meal

Brother

You have my support

Still awake?

What brought you here at this hour?

I really cannot bear to leave the stage

Give me another chance, will you?

Come on in first

Alright

The rite of breaking in to the stage is done

Everyone can work in peace now

There really are a lot of traditional regulations

in Cantonese opera

I've told you

When we're in the middle of the rite of

breaking in to the stage

no looking around and talking

Sorry

Have a seat

The act that you've seen just now

"The White Tiger and the Dark-faced General"

ls for "breaking in to the stage"

it keeps evil spirits away, and ensures everything

that we do is smooth-sailing

Did you notice the idol on the stage

when you came in?

He's the guardian angel of our Garden of Pears
