Shen Qiqi stood in the middle of the empty square and took a deep breath, as if to absorb the tranquility of the night into her lungs.
"This is it!" she announced excitedly. The moonlight cast a silver glow on her face, making her look even more radiant.
Lu Qing couldn't help but smile as he looked at her energetic appearance.
"This time, we're going to have a talent show for the villagers!" Shen Qiqi smiled mysteriously, a cunning glint in her eyes. "Of course, the content of the performance must be related to our village rules and regulations!"
"Talent show?" Lu Qing was slightly stunned, then he understood her intention.
Instead of boring preaching, it is better to use a more relaxed and lively approach to allow villagers to accept new concepts subtly.
Just do it!
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing immediately took action. They found wooden boards and paints and made a simple stage background with their own hands. They painted it with colorful pictures, all of which were scenes related to the village rules and regulations.
To enhance the atmosphere, they also hung colorful lights around the square, and the colorful lights illuminated the entire square like daylight.
After the news spread, villagers came to the square one after another.
At first, everyone was a little reserved, gathering in groups of three or five and talking in low voices.
Hesitation was evident on their faces, and the atmosphere of waiting and watching was quite strong.
“Qiqi, this…everyone doesn’t seem very proactive.” Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi with some concern.
Shen Qiqi, however, was not at all flustered. She smiled confidently, "Don't worry, the best is yet to come!" Then, she rushed onto the stage and cleared her throat, "Ahem, folks, tonight I'm going to bring you a song..."
She imitated the Huadan role in operas, with a graceful figure and melodious singing voice. She skillfully integrated the contents of the village rules and regulations into the lyrics, which drew cheers from the audience.
Shen Qiqi's performance instantly ignited the atmosphere of the scene. The villagers were attracted one after another, and the originally deserted square suddenly became lively.
Some brave villagers were also eager to try and wanted to go on stage to show their talents.
"Hey? What's that?" Suddenly, someone pointed to the sky and exclaimed...
A meteor streaked across the night sky, trailing a long flame, and fell to the earth like a dazzling diamond.
"Wow! Meteor!" The children shouted excitedly, and the adults also looked up with surprise on their faces.
This sudden meteor shower was like a visual feast, pushing the already bustling square to another climax.
The good times didn’t last long, and raindrops began to fall, from sparse to dense, hitting my face and bringing a hint of coolness.
"It's raining!" Someone shouted, and the villagers were a little panicked. Their original excitement was half extinguished, and a sense of unease began to spread among the crowd.
The square, which was bustling just now, suddenly became a little tense.
Seeing this, Lu Qing made a prompt decision and shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't panic, everyone! Go to the eaves next door to avoid the rain!" While giving orders, he and several young and strong men helped the elderly, the weak, women and children move to a safe place.
Shen Qiqi also joined the team to help maintain order.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, hitting the eaves with a crackling sound like a cheerful piece of music.
Under the eaves, the villagers' emotions gradually calmed down. Looking at the square in the rain, they began to talk in low voices again.
"This rain comes at a really bad time, just as the event is about to reach its climax..."
"Yeah, Qiqi's idea is really good. What a pity..."
Shen Qiqi felt a little anxious when she heard these discussions, but she did not give up.
An idea struck her, and she shouted, "Folks, even rainy days can't stop us from showing off our talents! We'll continue under the eaves!"
She took the lead in singing, and Lu Qing hummed along.
The singing was clear and particularly beautiful amidst the sound of rain, which infected the surrounding villagers.
Gradually, more and more people joined in, and the singing, laughter and the sound of rain intertwined to form a unique symphony.
Some villagers began to perform impromptu performances, some told stories, some performed magic tricks, and some imitated operas...
Although the venue was simple, everyone's enthusiasm remained undiminished and they became even more involved.
Shen Qiqi looked at this scene with a relieved smile on her face.
Village Chief Sun also nodded frequently
The rain gradually stopped and the air was filled with the fragrance of earth.
Shen Qiqi walked to Lu Qing and whispered, "Look, this rain..."
Lu Qing followed her gaze and saw...
The rainbow after the rain stretches across the sky, gorgeous and dazzling, like a bridge connecting the past and the future.
The villagers walked out of their roofs, looked at the beautiful rainbow, and long-lost smiles appeared on their faces.
The originally muddy road also appears exceptionally clean under the reflection of the rainbow.
"Qiqi, you are so amazing!" Aunt Li excitedly shook Shen Qiqi's hand, "Our village used to be so dirty and messy that it was unbearable to look at. Now it's better. Everyone pays attention to hygiene and is polite. Life is much more comfortable!"
"Yes, Qiqi, it's all thanks to you!" Grandpa Wang also echoed, "Those naughty kids used to be so restless. Now it's different. They've all become sensible and know how to help with housework!"
Praises came one after another, surging towards Shen Qiqi like a tide.
She was surrounded by villagers, and listening to their praise, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
"Qiqi, I'm so proud of you!" Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi affectionately, with a gleam in his eyes.
