Chapter 324 Zongzi
"But... have you seen Brother Songlin?" The group of four were so tired of watching that they only reacted when they squeezed out of the crowd.
The An Songyu sisters also looked at each other.
Not only did they not notice An Songlin, they didn't even notice the dragon boats in their own village.
So... they came out too early?
He turned around and looked at the crowd that had blocked their previous position.
A few people really didn't have the courage to squeeze in.
However, looking at the sky that had not brightened since morning, they felt there was no need to worry too much.
This rain seems to fall as soon as it is said to fall.
With this thought in mind, the few of them first bought drinks at a nearby store, and then walked for a distance before finding a snack bar.
It is obvious that this store did not sell snacks before today.
It’s just that because there are so many people today, the number increased.
An Songyu and his friends were not picky. They bought some of everything that was available in the store.
From fish balls and beef balls to radishes and potatoes, the taste of street beef offal seems to be particularly delicious in such an atmosphere.
But as they were eating, fine rain began to fall.
Several people let out an incomprehensible sigh.
I quickly increased the speed of eating.
Sure enough, after a while, the drizzle had wet the road surface.
Some of the spectators crowded on both sides of the river have already run to roadside shops to take shelter from the rain.
However, there are some people who, like An Songyu and his friends, have made sufficient preparations.
An Songyu and the other person held umbrellas for Jian Ziyu and the other person respectively, and once again chose a suitable position, watching the dragon boat team in the river attentively, whose enthusiasm had not diminished in the slightest.
Today's weather seems to have been infected by everyone's enthusiasm.
Although there was always rain, it was not heavy.
People who came specially to watch the dragon boat race but were not prepared wanted to leave but were reluctant to do so.
If I stayed, I would get wet in the rain, so I went back and forth between the river and the roadside shops countless times.
An Songyu and his team also successfully took photos of the Jiangcun dragon boat.
Even when the dragon boat passed through the river in front of them, they waved and said hello.
Looking at An Songlin sitting on the side of the dragon boat, stroking the oar, Jian Ziyu and the other person pressed the shutter button one after another.
With the special greetings of An Songyu and the others, the people of Jiangcun on the dragon boat also obviously noticed them.
Seeing the four people's overly professional photography equipment, they immediately took action.
This also caused the dragon boats in front and behind to move along.
By now, both the spectators and the riders were obviously showing signs of fatigue.
It was as intense as the performance from beginning to end.
Now it has become taking a break from time to time and then performing for a while.
The dragon boats around Jiangcun disappeared from everyone's sight after An Songyu and his friends' passionate performance for a while.
As for the dragon boats that came later, there were no performances for the time being.
But after a while, the rushing dragon boats brought another round of excitement.
An Songyu and the others were able to feast their eyes.
Until the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.
The sun made everyone hot and hungry, so they left reluctantly.
"The dragon boat race seems to be getting more exciting every year!" On the way back, Wang Henian couldn't help but sigh.
An Songyu also laughed.
Yes, the dragon boat race is not only more exciting every year, but also more lively every year!
But as time goes by, more and more people become interested in it, and the number of visits to see it becomes less and less.
However, if Jiangcun participated in it every year, An Songyu felt that no matter how busy she was, she would be able to find time to watch it.
After returning home, An Songyu packed up and hurried out again.
Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, also a traditional day for family reunion.
So An Songyu had to rush to Jian's house before noon, deliver the gifts, and then go home in the evening to reunite with his family.
Jian Ziyu thought of An Jianping and his wife, whom she had only had time to greet in a hurry this morning, and couldn't help but remind her girlfriend again:
"When you come back, you must help me say sorry to your parents!"
"What's there to be sorry about?" An Songyu found it funny:
"It's not that you didn't come, it's that our family is busy!"
"That's true. I didn't know a village with a dragon boat race would be so busy." Wang Henian in the back seat also replied.
In the past, if they wanted to go out to watch the dragon boat race during the Dragon Boat Festival, it wouldn’t take so long.
Generally speaking, on such festivals, relatives will visit each other.
But I didn't expect that they came early to settle down.
But he could only meet An Jianping and his wife.
Although they also wanted to support their son's dragon boat race.
But Jiangcun arranged for everyone to go and cheer for the dragon boat race.
They also had this opportunity because of the special care of the village committee.
The couple naturally didn't want to give up.
"What is this!" An Songyu shook his head slightly:
"My brother is the only one in our family who is half-involved, and he's not that busy."
"Everyone else in the village who is involved has started preparing very early."
“Some even started rehearsals a few days in advance just to help cheer.”
"So exaggerated?" Wang Henian's eyes widened.
An Songyu nodded affirmatively and said:
"There will be a chance in the future. I will take you to watch the dragon boat race then and you will understand the atmosphere."
This year, the village has basically not given any consideration to young people like them.
In addition to dragon boat racing, some young people can participate due to physical factors.
There wasn't a single young person cheering.
Regardless of whether these young people can make it back or not, they are left to fend for themselves.
But this won’t happen again in the future!
An Songyu decided to encourage her brother more and see if he could join the dragon boat racing team.
At that time, she could naturally go and cheer.
I didn’t see my aunt’s family because An Songshu was a dragon boat racer.
They naturally obtain the privilege of encouragement as relatives.
Wang Henian didn’t know what An Songyu was thinking, and he nodded expectantly.
Jian Ziyu, who was driving, shook his head slightly.
The two have been together for many years, so he naturally knows the situation in Jiangcun.
It's just that he seldom participated in it before.
But this time...
He thought that they might not have a chance next year.
But there is still a long way to go!
It was only a matter of time before I could go and watch the dragon boat race with my own eyes.
When they arrived in the north, Jian Ziyu first sent his friend home.
When Wang Henian got off the bus, An Songyu took out the homemade rice dumplings:
"These are the ingredients that my uncle's mother prepared herself, and she asked people from our village to come to her house to make them."
“There are traditional steamed rice dumplings and alkaline rice dumplings.”
"There are also specially made egg yolk and salted pork dumplings, as well as sweet red bean paste and red date dumplings."
"I've divided some of each. When you eat, pay attention to the color of the thread and the comparison of the flavor."
“Take it home and share it with your family!”
"You've even prepared mine?" Wang Henian asked in surprise and emotion.
He had just helped An Songyu carry things into the car, but he never expected that there would be a share for him.
