More and more people gathered in the cafeteria. A group of soldiers came over with several leaders and sat down in the first row one by one.
When Commander-in-Chief Su saw his daughter sitting behind her seat, his eyes flickered for a moment and he nodded to her imperceptibly.
After the military district chief and political commissar gave speeches, the performance began.
On the stage, a majestic melody sounded, and a heroic female soldier walked towards the stage and bowed to salute the audience.
The sun sets in the west and the red clouds fly,
The soldiers returned to camp after shooting.
......
Her voice was clear and high-pitched, accompanied by a powerful melody, which blended the joy of the soldiers' victorious return into the song, making people's hearts surge with emotion.
This was the first time Wen Guoer heard Chu Ying sing. She had excellent professional skills, whether it was her stage presence, singing skills, or expressiveness! She had to admit that she had something to be proud of.
This was followed by several dance programs, which, due to the limitations of the period, mostly sang praises to the working people and great leaders.
Wen Guoer had seen many grand occasions in her past life, even attending banquets hosted by royal families from various countries and watching all kinds of exotic performances! But she was still attracted by the simple yet pure, unpretentious yet bold and passionate performances on the stage.
The audience in the audience was also very excited and interested in the performance. They even felt as if they were in the scene and danced along.
There was very little entertainment in that era, just radio, movies, model operas, and only a few fixed programs.
Being able to see such a lively performance like today's is something worth bragging about for a while!
"The one who just sang was Chu Ying, right? That girl is so pretty!" Wang Zhaodi chatted with Sun Guihua.
"Yes, all the girls in the art troupe have performed, and she is the best!" As he said this, he deliberately moved forward, stretched his neck and looked in the direction of Wen Guoer and the others.
Wen Guoer just thought there were two flies beside her and focused on watching the performance.
The last program was a chorus, with Chu Ying standing in front to lead the singing.
She saw Wen Guoer in the audience when she sang the first song. Thinking of Tang Zhan's attitude that day, she couldn't help feeling angry.
The chorus ended and the art troupe's performance today also ended. Finally, Chu Ying gave a thank-you speech on behalf of the art troupe.
Chu Yingluo thanked all the leaders in a general manner, but did not leave the stage immediately.
She smiled brightly and spoke cheerfully: Thank you all the military wives for coming. We have prepared one last program for today.
That is, to give this stage to the wives of the military personnel, and let today's performance show the unity and friendship of our big military family!
The leaders sitting in the first row also looked at each other in surprise. They had not expected that there would be such a program.
The head of the art troupe behind the stage slapped his legs hard, his eyes panicking: "What is this Chu Ying doing!"
But now that these words have been spoken, we can only wait and see!
The audience was like a hornet's nest, with discussions and a clamor.
"Are we supposed to perform on stage?"
"If I were on stage, my legs would be shaking!"
"We are stiff-necked and thick-voiced people. We can only work, not dance and sing!"
"No, I have to move back further. Luckily I'm not sitting in the front!"
“…”
The military wives were talking about it, pushing each other, but no one wanted to go up or dared to go up.
Things were developing as Chu Ying expected. She spoke slowly:
"Seeing that all the sisters-in-law are too embarrassed to go on stage, I will take the liberty of inviting a military wife to perform on behalf of everyone."
Before anyone could react, she pointed her finger at Wen Guoer, her tone gentle and humble:
"Military wife in the middle of the second row, are you willing to come up to the stage for the leaders, soldiers, and military families present?"
Wen Guoer looked into her eyes and sneered. She was undoubtedly trying to put herself on the fire with these words!
If you don't go, it means you are unwilling to contribute to the leaders, soldiers, and military families. It means you are selfish and don't care about the overall situation!
If I go, I will lose face and bring shame to the entire military region.
In short, it's just to make her unhappy!
Mrs. Wei advised her not to go, but Wen Guoer patted her hands and told her not to go with her eyes.
Commander-in-Chief Su, who was sitting in the front, couldn't help but stiffen. He knew that the girl on the stage was pointing at his own daughter.
His daughter was raised in the countryside, how could she sing or dance? From childhood to adulthood, he had failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father, and he couldn't let his daughter suffer in front of him.
Just as I was about to stand up to stop it, I saw a slim figure walking onto the stage with ease and a straight posture.
She was wearing a beige coat today, with her hair tied up high on top of her head, revealing her swan-like neck. Her small face, the size of a palm, was raised, her skin dazzlingly white and her facial features stunning.
Although she was not wearing a dress, she exuded the aura of a princess, majestic and noble!
Her eyes moved as she slowly spoke:
“I would like to thank Comrade Chu for the invitation, and I would also like to thank all the leaders and sisters-in-law for giving me this opportunity to stand here and perform as a military wife, representing all military wives.
Although I have not been a military wife for long, during this time in the compound, I have gained some superficial understanding of the identity of a military wife.
Next, I want to sing a song to express our feelings as military wives."
After saying that, Wen Guoer bowed deeply to the audience!
"Good!" Commander-in-Chief Su led the applause, and then the audience burst into applause!
Commander-in-Chief Su was excited. He didn't expect that his daughter could stand on the stage so gracefully and say those words just now. She was neither humble nor arrogant, and her temperament was no less than that of the diplomat!
