Liang Liang's younger brother and sister skipped and jumped around beside their parents.
They were quiet while watching the show, but then their lively nature returned.
When Liang Liang reached her doorstep, she stopped and said, "Mom and Dad! I'm leaving!"
His father didn't say anything, he just smiled and looked at him.
The mother, who had previously been eager for her son to go out and do something, was now somewhat reluctant to let him go.
"Take good care of yourself when you're out there alone, and come back as soon as you have a holiday."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine outside."
After saying that, Liang Liang patted his younger sister Liang Youyou's head: "You two be good! Study hard."
My younger brother and sister are fourteen and twelve respectively, and they're basically still too young to understand anything, so talking to them won't make much difference.
After waving goodbye to her family, Liang Liang returned to the brigade's courtyard.
The performance equipment has been packed up, and about half of the tent has been dismantled.
Upon his return, Liang Liang immediately participated in the dismantling of the greenhouse.
Bi Sheng's dance troupe has a total of two trucks and an old-fashioned bus.
Trucks were used to transport various props for the dance troupe, while buses were used specifically to transport people.
This is a bus with 28 seats. The dance troupe currently has 20 members, so there is plenty of room for everyone.
The further back you sit in the bus, the bumpier it gets, especially the area behind the rear tires, which feels like a sieve.
Liang Liang was a latecomer and could only sit at the very back of the bus.
He was surrounded by uncles and elders from the song and dance troupe, and the girls were all sitting in front of him, which made it boring. There wasn't even anyone he could sneak a little advantage of in the dark.
There were two middle-aged women in front of him, but they didn't seem to have any intention of making a move!
Liang Liang's worries were obviously unnecessary. Gold shines wherever it is. As soon as the car drove out of the village, Ming Hongling and Cuihua ran to the back to keep him company.
Ming Hongling was a little slow, allowing Cuihua to sit down next to Liang Liang first.
"You damn Cuihua! You've got a knack for grabbing spots. Do you want to sleep with Liang Liang tonight?"
"Hehe! If you don't sleep with him tonight, I'll sleep with him. What's there to be afraid of?"
Liang Liang was a little dumbfounded: "Are you all this open-minded?"
Or we could sleep together, I have over ten years' worth of them here.
"What are you thinking? We're very innocent when we sleep."
That's utter nonsense. The dirtiest time for a person is when they're sleeping.
Cuihua is a dancer and singer in the song and dance troupe. Her name has a certain feel to it, which reminds Liang Liang of the joke about Cuihua serving sauerkraut.
It would be quite interesting if we could release this song someday and have Cuihua cook sauerkraut on the show.
Cuihua sat next to Liang Liang for a short while before giving the seat to Ming Hongling.
"Since you got dumped, I'll give you this seat tonight. But if I manage to snag it again, I won't let you have it."
Ming Hongling showed no gratitude for Cuihua's "kindness" and sat down next to Liang Liang without any politeness.
"Cuihua just said you broke up with your boyfriend. Tell me what's bothering you so I can cheer you up," Liang Liang teased Ming Hongling.
Ming Hongling rolled her eyes at Liang Liang, annoyed, and didn't say anything.
"It's no big deal! There are no three-legged people in this world, but two-legged toads are everywhere. You can guarantee that none of them will be left."
Cuihua chuckled from the back seat.
"What do you mean? So I have to find a two-legged toad? Believe me or not, I'll twist you to death."
"No, no! Don't be depressed anymore, child. You have to live a lively, cheerful, and strong life, just like a madman."
Ming Hongling reached out and pinched Liang Liang's thigh hard.
Liang Liang instinctively grabbed Ming Hongling's hand, his breath coming in cold air. This woman was ruthless; she hit her so hard.
If this spot were five centimeters further in, I'd have trouble urinating.
However, this woman's hands were quite smooth. Liang Liang touched Ming Hongling's hands a few times, thinking, "I'll pinch you and get some interest back."
Ming Hongling quickly withdrew her hand and glared at Liang Liang in the darkness.
Liang Liang laughed heartily.
The song and dance troupe's next stop is Shannantou Commune on the southeast coast.
The distance between Shannantou Commune and Pingshan Brigade is more than 30 li. Half an hour later, the troupe's motorcade arrived at Shannantou Commune.
Bi Sheng had scouted the location in the afternoon, so the convoy parked directly at the spot he had chosen.
Tomorrow is not the market day in Shannantou Commune; the place where they set up camp is the market location.
As soon as the car stopped, the entire dance troupe got busy, working through the night to set up the tent.
The greenhouse was set up at midnight, time for bed.
Those with wives had their own small tents, while the men without wives slept together in the shed, and the women without husbands slept in the bus.
Liang Liang and three or four bachelors younger than himself spent the night on the stage of the greenhouse.
He laid out his luggage and set up mosquito nets on the stage that had been set up.
This will be where he sleeps from now until winter.
Those kids, even younger than him, had a lot of energy; they were still chatting idly even at this hour.
Somehow, it all got dragged into Ming Hongling.
"That bastard Li Hui is such a jerk! Senior Sister Ming is so beautiful and so good to him, and he just packs his bags and leaves." A guy named Ga Zi started the conversation.
“Who says otherwise? I heard that woman named Hu Mei is very capable, and many people in Asia have unclear relationships with her,” another guy nicknamed Iron Ball chimed in.
"Do you guys think it's possible that Hu Mei and Li Hui did *that* thing, and Li Hui ran off with her?"
"That's possible. It's said that Senior Sister doesn't even let Li Hui touch her hands. Now that she's here and he can do whatever he wants with her, how could he not be attracted by her and run off with her?"
"Damn it, no man is any good!" came one of the idiots from the darkness.
A moment of silence followed by a burst of laughter.
"You damn donkey! As if you're not a man."
"This idiot even insulted himself, hahaha!"
Liang Liang shook her head. If Ming Hongling found out that these loose-lipped guys were talking about her behind her back, she might slap them twice each.
Liang Liang slept until seven in the morning, only to be woken up by Ming Hongling pulling his ear.
"Lazybones! It's so late and you're still sleeping!"
Liang Liang slapped away the hand that was pulling her ear, rubbed her eyes, and said, "Sister Ming! If you pull my ear again, I'll turn on you."
"Oh ho! You've got some nerve now, you're getting angry! Come on! Let me see if you can turn the pages of a book faster!"
"Turn your face away right now! I'm naked! You might see it and be unable to pull your head out!"
"Tch! What's there to be afraid of looking at? I haven't even seen the big ones yet, let alone the small ones!"
This is like a scholar encountering a soldier—he can't reason with him.
However, Ming Hongling didn't stay there, probably worried that Liang Liang was really naked. After saying that, she turned around and ran away.
