The host on the stage spoke again, "Our lovely military wives must be shy. Comrades, let's applaud and give them some encouragement, okay?"
Thunderous applause rang out again, urging the military wives to go on stage and perform.
Chen Jiao was young, and everyone felt that they couldn't rely on her at a time like this.
Jiang Siyu, a fence-sitter, quickly flattered Zhang Fengxia, saying, "Mrs. Zhang, look at what you said. The military wives in our family compound have always followed your lead, not because of Political Commissar Liang's rank, but because you are capable and have arranged everything properly. Everyone respects you."
When Zhang Fengxia heard Jiang Siyu's words, she straightened her back a little and raised her chin proudly.
But he still said, "I am old now, I don't understand what you young people like, and I can't make decisions for you."
At this time, the host had already called on the soldiers to applaud for the second time.
The host's original intention in making this suggestion was to let the military wives celebrate with the soldiers, but now it has made them so embarrassed that they can't get off the stage.
Yu Donghua whispered to Chen Jiao, "Jiaojiao, Zhang Fengxia saw that your man was promoted to the head of the group, and she was afraid that everyone would side with you in the future, so she deliberately used Qiao to intimidate you!"
Chen Jiao naturally knew Zhang Fengxia's intention.
She originally just wanted to come with the army to review and concentrate on preparing for the college entrance examination, and she was not prepared to compete with anyone.
However, Zhang Fengxia made trouble at this time, and the military wives became a mess. Not only would it embarrass the host, but it would also leave a bad impression in front of the leaders, and it might even make the leaders have a bad impression of their own men.
Chen Jiao simply stood up and said, "Sisters-in-law who can sing "Nanniwan", let's go on stage together and sing together!"
In this situation, a chorus would never go wrong.
The song "Nanniwan" was very popular in this era, and almost everyone could sing it.
Chen Jiao raised her arm and called out, and immediately received a response from the military wives.
Seeing that all the military wives stood up and followed Chen Jiao onto the stage, Zhang Fengxia looked grim and a little flustered.
Soon, Zhang Fengxia was the only one left in the seat for military wives.
She wanted to stand up and go on stage, but she couldn't bring herself to do so. If she didn't go on stage, she would be the only one left in the audience, as if she didn't fit in and was out of tune with everyone else.
Liang Yong, who was sitting in the front, was also in a bad mood today.
In this reward system, except for those who were promoted because of their great contributions like Lu Zhengxu, most of the soldiers received some material rewards for their hard work, but he, a political commissar, received nothing.
This was tantamount to slapping him in the face in front of so many soldiers.
But now Zhang Fengxia is still embarrassing him.
Liang Yong turned around and glared at Zhang Fengxia fiercely.
Zhang Fengxia shivered, stood up under the gaze of everyone, and walked onto the stage alone.
On the stage, Chen Jiao was already arranging the military wives to line up in order of height.
Yu Donghua and Jiang Siyu were also helping.
Zhang Fengxia was relatively tall among the military wives, so Yu Donghua arranged her to stand in the last row.
Now, Zhang Fengxia's face became even darker.
I just feel that Yu Donghua must have been instructed by Chen Jiao to deliberately arrange her to the last row to annoy her.
The feud between her and Chen Jiao was complete.
After Chen Jiao arranged the group, she also consciously stood in the last row according to her own height, cleared her throat, and started the group, "The flowers in the flower basket are fragrant, listen to us sing, sing, sing... Let's sing!"
"The flowers in the basket are fragrant,
Listen to us sing, sing, sing, sing,
Arrived at Nanniwan,
Nanniwan is a good place, a good place.
Good place, good scenery..."
Soon, the loud singing of the chorus floated over the auditorium.
The chorus of the military wives was naturally not as beautiful as Han Mingyue's solo, but because the song was so familiar and Chen Jiao was leading the way, they did not go out of tune.
Moreover, the sound of the chorus has a spiritual quality that the solo voice does not have.
Soon, after the song was finished, warm applause broke out from the audience again.
The host came on stage at the right time and said, “Our soldiers are heroes who guard our country, and our wives are the unsung heroes who silently contribute behind the soldiers.
All the achievements made by our soldiers today are inseparable from the dedication and support of military wives. Comrades, are you happy to hear our beloved one singing "Nanniwan" for us? ”
"happy!"
The loud voices of the soldiers below the stage seemed to lift the roof of the auditorium off.
"If you are happy, please all soldiers stand up!
Today, whether your family members are on the stage or not, please say "thank you" to these military wives who are silently contributing to our defense.
The host's voice is very empathetic.
When the performance stopped and the audience rang out in unison and sincere "Thank you", many military wives had red eyes and couldn't hold back their tears.
Indeed, it was only after arriving here that Chen Jiao realized how hard the lives of military wives are.
The wives of soldiers who are able to follow the army are already the happiest group of people, but they are only a minority after all.
Moreover, before joining the army, all of these military wives had waited anxiously at home for several years or even more than ten years.
A woman gets married, but she can't even see her husband all year round. She suffers like a widow.
I also have to take care of my parents-in-law, raise the children, and do all the housework and farm work.
Such hard and tiring days are the daily life of these military wives.
After the soldiers' voices died down, Chen Jiao, Yu Donghua, and Jiang Siyu organized the military wives to step down.
After all the military wives stepped down, she was the last one to step down.
But he was stopped by the host.
"Sister-in-law, please stay."
"During the chorus just now, our army's lark praised me backstage for your great voice. May I ask if you are also a literary and artistic worker?"
Chen Jiao answered generously: "No. I just like to sing when I am tired from work."
Of course, this custom is from the end of the world.
She was living alone at that time.
While others have to struggle for food, she has her own space, so she doesn't have to worry about food and drink. She has plenty of time to waste every day, so she watches and learns all kinds of things.
She collected a lot of old songs at that time.
For a while, she was particularly obsessed with rap. After searching for gold among a number of rap songs of varying quality, she listened to Phoenix Legend, Bao Shi Laojiu, Pharaoh and so on on repeat for a while.
The host immediately followed Shen Jiao's words and said, "Sister-in-law, can you sing a song for us now?"
