"Sis, it's getting late, let's go to the troupe and take a look."

Xiuxiu hugged her sister's arm, glanced at the time on her watch, and then urged them to go to the troupe.

At noon, her brother-in-law mentioned that there were soldiers performing in the regiment, and she wanted to go and see what was going on.

Lu Fangfang glanced at her watch, then looked at her sisters-in-law, "Sister-in-law Lanying, Sister Shufen, shall we go to the troupe together?"

Wang Shufen was quite interested and nodded quickly.

"Forget it, you guys go ahead. I've seen the troupe's performances many times before."

Zhao Lanying smiled and shook her head, deciding to stay at the breeding farm tonight.

Xiao Lu and Sister-in-law Shufen were both new to the military, so she didn't go with them.

The other sisters-in-law, some planned to go, and some didn't want to go.

Lu Fangfang looked at the little wild donkey again and saw that it had fallen asleep again. So she and her sisters-in-law took Xiaohua and the little Tibetan fox out the door.

They were both part of the group, so it was a good opportunity for them to go and have some fun together.

On the main road outside, there were several children playing with lanterns. This was the first time she had ever seen the residential compound so lively.

Upon entering the regiment's auditorium, it was filled with soldiers, and a performance was taking place on the stage.

Not wanting to disturb them, Lu Fangfang and the others stood at the back and watched.

"Read the leader's books, listen to the leader's words, act according to the leader's instructions, and be the leader's good soldier!"

On the stage, several soldiers sang revolutionary songs from the army.

Below the podium, soldiers were playing musical instruments to accompany the lecture.

When the music ended, enthusiastic applause rang out in the auditorium.

"Slap, slap, slap, slap."

Lu Fangfang clapped enthusiastically. The soldiers sang a few lines off-key, but their spirit was strong and their singing was powerful.

Tonight's performance is all from the same troupe, so anyone can go up and perform. She felt quite comfortable with it.

At this moment, the soldiers on the bench also saw Lu Fangfang and the others, and they all turned around to greet them.

"Happy New Year, sister-in-law."

"Sister-in-law, you've worked so hard for us."

"Yes, sister-in-law, we just ate quail eggs and drank quail soup. It was so delicious. You and Sister-in-law Shufen have worked hard."

"Oh, it's not hard at all, it's not hard at all. Happy New Year, Happy New Year."

Lu Fangfang still had candy in her pocket, so she quickly grabbed a handful and scattered it, saying, "Eat candy, eat candy."

Listening to what the soldiers said warmed her heart.

Hearing the noise, Zhuang Mingcheng, sitting in the front seat, immediately stood up.

He quickly walked to his wife's side, then helped her to the front row.

"Mingcheng, am I not late?"

Lu Fangfang looked around and found that tonight was even more lively than when the cultural troupe came a few days ago, and there were even more people.

There aren't any lively places to go near the family compound, so most people are probably here tonight.

"No, the soldiers have just started. Please have a seat."

Zhuang Mingcheng smiled and helped his wife sit down on the bench.

"Commander, would you like your wife to perform a talent?"

"Yes, Commander."

"Go away, go away, stop causing trouble."

Zhuang Mingcheng smiled and waved, then sat down next to his wife.

The soldiers looked at him and felt a pang of regret. Then they turned their eyes to Xiao Aiguo.

"Political Commissar, would you like your wife to perform a talent?"

"Yes, Political Commissar, let your wife perform a talent show too."

On the platform, Chen Shuhua was preparing to call up the next group of soldiers.

Hearing the soldiers' words, she smiled and looked at Wang Shufen.

"I only know the folk songs from my hometown. If you don't mind that I sing them badly, I'll go up and sing a couple of lines."

Wang Shufen had just had a few drinks with her husband and was in a good mood.

Upon hearing the soldiers' words, she immediately stood up.

"Everyone, please welcome Sister-in-law Shufen. Let her sing us a folk song from our hometown."

On the podium, Chen Shuhua led the applause.

The soldiers below immediately burst into enthusiastic applause.

"Slap, slap, slap, slap."

Wang Shufen wasn't shy at all and walked confidently to the podium.

Clearing her throat, she began to sing a cappella, without any accompaniment, "Everyone says, oh, Yimeng Mountain is beautiful~"

"The scenery on those mountains in Yimeng is so beautiful!"

...

Sister Shufen's shout immediately silenced Lu Fangfang, who was sitting on the front bench.

She even forgot to crack the melon seeds at this moment. Holding Xiaohua and the little Tibetan fox, she stared at Sister Shufen on the stage with her mouth agape in surprise.

She really didn't expect that Sister Shufen had this talent; she sang so well!

Even the little flower and the little Tibetan fox in her arms tilted their heads, looking curiously at Wang Shufen on the stage.

"Whoosh~"

"Slap, slap, slap, slap~"

After Wang Shufen finished singing, the auditorium erupted in prolonged applause.

The soldiers clapped their hands enthusiastically, genuinely pleased.

Of all the performances so far, Sister-in-law Shufen has sung the best.

On the stage, Chen Shuhua clapped her hands and walked to the center of the stage with great surprise. "Sister-in-law Shufen, you sang so well. Just based on that one note, you could have joined our cultural troupe."

"How about you sing another song for the soldiers?"

Wang Shufen blushed, then shook her head, "I only know this one little tune, I'm going down now."

After saying that, she quickly stepped down from the podium.

"Sister Shufen, you really surprised me! You sang so well."

Lu Fangfang gave Sister Shufen a thumbs up in admiration.

Wang Shufen scratched her head, smiled sheepishly, and then sat down on the bench.

"Xiao Lu, Comrade Xiao Lu, would you like to perform a show for the comrades as well?"

On the podium, Chen Shuhua smiled at Lu Fangfang.

"I?"

Lu Fangfang hesitated.

She used to love singing, but nowadays she doesn't dare to sing recklessly.

"Comrades, let's give Comrade Xiao Lu a round of applause and encourage her!"

"Slap, slap, slap, slap."

The soldiers immediately became excited again and clapped their hands.

"Sister-in-law, would you like one?"

On the stage, Chen Shuhua said with a smile, "Xiao Lu, don't be shy. Sing whatever you know. We're all family here today, so come up and perform a song."

Six months ago, Lao Gao recommended Lu Fangfang to join the performing arts troupe.

She was certain that Xiao Lu would sing a couple of lines.

Thinking of this, Chen Shuhua smiled and clapped again, encouraging Lu Fangfang in the audience with her eyes.

"I'll have one."

Xiao Ting suddenly stood up from the far right of the front row of the auditorium.

Xu Jinbu glanced at her from the side, then pondered for a moment before saying nothing.

"Alright, let Xiao Ting perform a show first, and I'll go on next."

Lu Fangfang smiled nonchalantly, not caring at all.

After she finished speaking, she sat back down on the bench.

Forehead……

Chen Shuhua paused for a moment, then quickly reacted, “Comrades, let’s welcome Comrade Xiao Ting first, let her perform a show for us, and then Comrade Xiao Lu will come up next.”
