Teacher Nenniang, a famous burlesque performance artist in Shanghai, is respected by everyone as the old aunt, a famous burlesque actor, formerly known as Fang Liying, a famous burlesque artist, and Nenniang is a stage name.

Due to the hot market reputation of the burlesque play "Sanmao Student Intention", in 1958, The Pegasus Film Studio decided to make it into a film of the same name, and invited the famous drama master Huang Zuolin as the director, while NenNiang still played the role of Xiaoying, which also gave her the opportunity to switch from the stage to the screen.

Differently, in the movie, you rely on the muscles on the face, the eyes, and the eyes are expressed by the window of the soul. The stage is big, it all depends on the body, because it can be played, but you are in the camera, in the movie, you don't want to be scared to death, right, this is also impossible. Xiao Ying in the movie, her actions are relatively small, are relying on the eyes, "Mr, Sir", but on the stage to be more exaggerated, but also exaggerated, "Mr, Sir," the voice is very loud, shouted very loudly, because to let the audience hear, in this movie, Mr., Mr. to be real, eyes, but there are also eyes on the stage, you use the eyes on the stage, the eyes also want, do not want the words to play can not be expressed, because the movie to be real is also to be close to life, and this TV is the same, to be close to life.

Yu Fei is a film actor who is very familiar to Shanghai audiences, and because of his big nose and deep eye sockets, he has played the role of a foreigner in many movies. At that time, when they were performing the burlesque play "Living Bodhisattva", they all said, "Window of America" is now performing in carlton theater, the old called Changton Theater is now called Yangtze River Theater, the performance of "Window of America" in which a person named Yu Fei acted really well, really like a foreigner, everyone said so, then everyone has to go to see it, when they rest, buy a ticket to the Yangtze River Theater to see "Window of America" is not her alone, the crew all go to see, a look down this Yu Fei is like a foreigner, The voice is so loud that she thinks that the drama actors are great, we burlesque actors are really inferior to them, the burlesque actors want microphones, and the microphones are hanging from the top, not now wireless microphones, to hang down from above, do you hang accurately, go to the middle point, afraid that the sound will go out to the audience can't hear. Unexpectedly, the stage idol in her mind actually appeared on the set of "Sanmao Student Intention", although it was only a role in playing soy sauce, but his dedicated work attitude also made The young lady increase his good feelings for him. Yu Fei in the play role is nothing, at that time she rested, rest on the dock, rest on the dock she also want to see the trick, saw a foreigner, rotten sailor, because after drinking the old wine paste confused they called him rotten sailor, stumbled and rushed to see a stall selling tofu flowers, he hula, horizontal a foot, vertical foot, she looked at it is also quite funny, like our diners on the stage kicked over and ran down, how this role should be crossed a foot, vertical a foot, probably kicked for half an hour, a look at who, is Yu Fei, She thought that this film actor was great, so serious about such a little drama, she saw that she was quite envious of him. Later he asked her out, we went to the Shanghai café for a cup of coffee okay, she said okay, then he came to her first and then arrived, once he arrived, everyone talked about it, then he said, Young Lady, you "Living Bodhisattva" I have seen three times, she thinks how I don't know at all, this is also not known, because he dressed like a foreigner in "Window of America", wearing a leather coat, it is not quite like, then they talk about it, they want to talk but they can't insert a word, it's all his heavens and the south of the sea, Oh, after three hours of talking, she always listened like a book, she always listened to him, and later they had a common language, so he had a heart for her, she was interested in him, then everyone was united. Unlike now do you love, you talk about you, they don't talk, they are from the feelings, from the heart to the eyes, everyone has something in common, then it has been combined for nearly forty years.

After the outbreak of the Cultural Revolution, burlesque was banned from performing as a social tumor, and many burlesque actors such as Nenniang were forced to leave the stage and were assigned to factories and rural labor reforms. So advanced sheep shed, then into the cowshed, and then into the pig shed, three sheds sheds shed, then can not perform, the model play for him (me) cattle ghosts and snake gods are not good to sing, then accept the poor and lower middle peasant re-education in the dry school, how do the peasants themselves learn from them, accept the poor and lower middle peasant re-education, pick the mud, they are poor and the middle peasants pick the mud, so pick well, so one pour that I don't know such a piece of mud to see like chocolate, the weight is very heavy, a piece of at least thirty or forty pounds, On both sides of them they picked sixty pounds, never picked a burden, then she picked, learned from them and fell like this, a waist twisted. Work can not be done, songs can not be sung, seeing that everyone has something to do, the young lady who is active is even more bored. Oh young lady, what tender lady, not tender lady is Fang Liying, alas, you can't go to the earth to catch the sparrow well, she thinks, well, I go to catch the sparrow, catch the sparrow, they are all singing the model play, she catches the sparrow, then the average person chases the sparrow to drive it away, then she thinks in her mind I will not always be here, I will always return to the stage, my voice because singing the model opera people are good at practicing their voices, they are not good at practicing their voices, so what to do, she catches the sparrows, This short-lived Fang Liying sparrow was going to die quickly to catch up with this tone.

The end of the Cultural Revolution in 1976 completely liberated the depleted hearts of the masses, and also made the performance market at that time quite hot, and the young lady and her wife Yu Fei, who were nearly sixty years old at the time, were also overjoyed, because they could return to the familiar stage again. Now talk about walking caves, northerners talk about walking caves, they Shanghainese talk about "crooked Lun", this "crooked Lun" has three files, they are equal to a group of the same. Yu Fei said cross-talk with the statement, then how about her, she sang "Carriage Fresh Wind" in Shanghai, "Carriage Fresh Wind" in which she had to play several roles by herself, to play a conductor, but also to play a child, but also to play Ningbo people, Anhui people, etc., are all this kind of role, she has to speak so many dialects alone, then the voice is very good, her voice at that time can be typed to A tone, now only p a word tone, lying down. In that era, when going out to perform without charging money, not talking about how big you are now, how much money you have, everyone comes back with a box of snacks, under the industrial and mining enterprises, big state-owned enterprises all go, they will call, and then their old people are the same as interest, may be out of the art can not put down, think that this is life, art is life will go to the performance, after the performance, there is no money, then there is only dim sum, at that time to the neighbor's family to send snacks to her grandson Jin Feng He remembered, when he was a child, he ran to his grandfather's grandmother's house, Then Grandpa and Grandma said to send a snack to the neighbors whoever was going to send a snack, then he would go to deliver the snack, and then when he came home, he would bring home five or six packs of snacks, which he could eat for half a month.

Nenniang and Yu Fei are not only highly praised for their acting skills, but also praised by their peers in the circle on weekdays, and Yu Fei's old partner and famous program host Ye Huixian can't help but burst into tears when recalling the artistic couple' bits and pieces. In 1981 and 1981, he couldn't remember, he was a guest at the home of this young lady teacher, and the teacher Yu was talking to him, this ticket is for you, do your friends want this TV ticket. He wanted to wonder if you don't have a TV at home, said no TV, he said that you have to add one to the cross village of Teacher Yu, you have to add one, and the result is that Teacher Nenniang is really a funny actor, she has a set, our family is that you see that there is no money, no money, he does not believe, at that time Teacher Yu Fei said that you see we have two or three hundred pieces of us to live, he was sour in his heart, two big artists, when he went back he and his lover said, because he just returned to Shanghai, he did not have any money, his lover said at that time, She had a certificate of deposit for 2,000 yuan, but the death period, that is, if she wanted to take it out, maybe this interest was to lose a little, not a little, at that time it was quite large. Ye Huixian remembered that in a small alley next door to the Guanghua Cinema on Yan'an Road, the two of them went to get this, and it was put on the back shelf of the bicycle and pushed it to the house, helping Teacher Yu to carry it to the house, and it was two people on the fifth floor who came up( carried) up, on this matter, the two of them thanked him for more than twenty days, and she said, "Xiao Xian, Nong is really good." In 1988, the Shanghai Qu Artists Association established the Evergreen Qu Art Troupe, inviting retired funny old artists to rehearse new programs, and Nenniang and her old colleagues who had been separated for more than 40 years laughed and giggled and re-partnered, rehearsing many popular classic passages.

In the early 1990s, Shanghai Oriental Television began to prepare for the filming of a large-scale Shanghai-style indoor comedy "Old Niang Uncle", and the crew unanimously agreed that the role of the old aunt in the play was none other than the young lady, but the young lady who received the invitation from the crew actually refused at first. At the beginning, they asked her to shoot this "Old Lady Uncle", then in "Old Lady Uncle" she played the old aunt, the old aunt she partnered with, with Li Jiusong, Li Jiusong is eight years younger than her, how can the eldest eight years older, on the stage does not matter, you are eight years older, I make up or something, the stage audience is far right, and it is not clear, this TV is not OK, a close-up is obvious, either do his sister or do his aunt backwards, then her lover Yu Fei did her work, he said you are not an old actor, ah, She said I am an old actor, how about the old actor, the old actor should use his brain, she said what brain, you think of a way she said I can't think of it, Pudong is not a big lady, he said that she thinks well, then she will continue to play the old uncle, and then after the performance they all say that the two of them are similar, the young lady She is very happy, they all say that Li Jiusong is brutally old, so it is quite close to life to act like this. The old aunt is quite kind, although it is a small person, but she is quite close to life, and the old uncle Li Jiusong also plays very well, so the two of them are quite tacit.

Under the interpretation of The young lady's humorous but not losing her life, the role of the old aunt gradually penetrated into the hearts of the vast number of Shanghai audiences, and no matter where she went, there would always be a kind "old aunt" in her ears. She went to the hospital to see a doctor, I don't know a little friend ran so big, old aunt, oh, such a small child called me old aunt, then next to his grandmother led, this little devil head has no measure, how can you call people old aunt, should be called grandma, should call grandma you know, no, she called old uncle, young lady she is very happy.

In 1999, the Shanghai Drama Center rehearsed Cao Yu's famous book "Sunrise", and the then director of the play, Yu Luosheng, decided to play the role of Grandma Gu Ba in the play, which was a new challenge for Young Niang. She said that your drama is an elegant temple, her own funny actor is probably incompetent, the dean is very good, the young teacher you must come, this Mandarin herself can not speak as if this meaning, must you come, you must come, I now show you the book, then called someone to send a book, she saw this role is spiritual, she saw that she was very happy, and then she agreed to go to the meeting. I don't know if this director always said to her, you let go a little, no problem, you let go a little. Her mind is thinking that I am good to put ah, I am a burlesque actor, as soon as you put this drama overturned, people will scold themselves. "Pretty good Cao Yu's famous book "Sunrise" to get a young lady to do seven twists and three, knocking over our play, what a famous hall, she is afraid of it. In terms of performance, Nenniang showed herself with many years of experience, but in terms of language, due to the long-term use of dialect performances, Mandarin has become her biggest weakness. Xu Chengxian played a doctor, she saw that she was going to call him a doctor, doctor you came, then they said that you said that this sentence is not right, should say "doctor" is not "not", she is not clear, doctor, not, then later they corrected her, they talked about it now probably is not correct, the dean is very good, the dean is the director, Yu Luosheng, very good, comfort her, after, their own line again, they are happy, over. But you know how much work she has spent, many days do not sleep, do not eat, just take this book to read, turn over Chinese, character, must be with them to cooperate with, this she is very happy, will never forget.
