Tracing back the origin of the skit, we can find that it is evolved from the Northeast Chinese opera, and the Northeast Chinese opera "Lafang Opera" is the closest relative. It carries the comedic elements that ordinary people love. In the situation of the overall decline of comedy, people will be Zhao Benshan as the representative of the Northeast artists launched, their favorite art performance will be put on the "skit" hat, whether it is appropriate regardless of, but also the first to put on and say.

La field play, belonging to the Northeast local theater, is a branch of the art of two people, commonly known as "small drop" is dressed as a small Dan, small, clowns and other lines of folk theater. This play is mostly performed by a man and a woman rapping, commonly known as two people.

La field theater is commonly known as La field stuff, bouncing theater. Also known as Yangge theater, character theater and Northeast local theater, it is a folk opera sung with the tune of two people. La field theater traditional repertoire of forty or fifty, some from the two people turn; some from the Lotus Flower Drop or ten not idle; some from the folk songs, songs; there are also from the evaluation of the opera, the clapper in the transplanted. There are two kinds of tunes, namely, the full plate accent and the song union. The former, such as the "skirt", "back to the cup"; the latter, such as the "Cold River Pass", "the second aunt to visit the sick" and so on. After the founding of New China, the three northeastern provinces organized and performed many new lafang operas, such as Glory Lights, All in the Family, Father and Daughter in the City, New Year's Greetings, Cousin Brothers, Wanting Family Pawns, New Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law, Haunted Grindhouse, Three Bride Price Bills, Red Apricot Blossoms, etc. The lafang operas are similar to those of other Chinese local operas. Like other local Chinese operas, the Lachang Opera is written in an artistic approach. Characters can announce themselves on the stage, and the folk and environment can be changed with the singing of the characters in the play. For example, in Feng Kui Sells His Wife, the scenery all the way from Feng Jiawan to the time of the sale is introduced through the characters' singing. Types of Lachang opera, from the content of the subject matter, there are positive drama (such as "kill the river", "fishing to kill the family"), tragedy (the old term "bitter drama", such as "Feng Kui sells his wife"), comedy (such as "picking cotton", "small greenkeeper") and farce (such as "double abduction"). Divided from the performance, there are two main categories of singing, singing and dancing operas. Singing operas generally have twisted storylines and strong dramatic conflicts, and the works are won by touching and heartfelt singing. Song and dance drama generally do not have a complex plot, and even no dramatic conflict, similar to the small singing, such as "Glory Lights". Lafang opera and other folk theater, first from the "two small plays" (Dan, clowns) developed into "three small plays" (Dan, Sheng, clowns), and later appeared in other lines, such as Lao Sheng (such as "Kill the River" in the Shawn), Lao Dan (such as the "Three Virtues" in the mother-in-law), Wu Dan (such as the "Three Virtues" in the mother-in-law), Wu Dan (such as the "Three Virtues" in the mother-in-law), Wu Dan (such as the "Three Virtues" in the mother-in-law). Later on, there were also other roles such as Lao Sheng (e.g. Xiao En in "Kill the River"), Lao Dan (e.g. Granny in "The Three Wise Men"), Wu Dan (e.g. Fan Li Hua in "Cold River Pass"), Wu Chou (e.g. Shi Qian in "Yan Qing Sells Threads"), Huafan (e.g. Bao Zheng in "Pao Gong Reparation"), etc.
