Chapter 531 Football Match (Subscription Request, Monthly Ticket Request)
"Okay, you go up quickly, we are leaving." After Chu Jinnian gave the instructions, he urged again and again.
Chu Jinzhou blinked in confusion.
Why did Da always feel that his elder brother disliked him today? However, it seemed that there was no evidence...
Chu Jinnian personally drove the carriage to the door of Zhuang Qingning's house.
The door of Zhuang Qingning's house was closed. Chu Jinnian knocked but there was no response.
"Sister Ning is not at home?" Chu Jinzhou asked.
"Yeah." Chu Jinnian nodded somewhat disappointedly. "He's probably busy with something else. Let's go to the workshop and take a look. Maybe he's there. If not, let's go to the shops in town and have a look."
When Zhuang Qingning is not at home, he must be busy with business. It will never be wrong to go to these places to look for him.
After parking the carriage aside and finding a tree to tie the horse, Chu Jinnian led Chu Jinzhou to the workshop.
A few children ran over from outside the village, laughing and giggling, and stopped when they saw Chu Jinnian and Chu Jinzhou.
The leader even asked, "You look unfamiliar, so you are not from Enji Village, right?"
"Are you also here to participate in Enjizhuang's football match?"
"Football?" Chu Jinzhou was immediately surprised, "What is that?"
"You don't know what football is? This is it!" The leader shook the ball in his hand. "It's a ball that is kicked with the feet, so it's called football. It looks like Cuju, but it's different. It's very fun."
"Come on, you guys don't seem to know, so it's pointless to tell you."
"That's right. Don't waste time. The game should have started by now. Go quickly. If you go too late, you won't be able to watch it. I heard that whichever team wins the football match can get 20 kilograms of tofu, 10 kilograms of preserved eggs, and 10 kilograms of yuba from this workshop every month. All the children from the nearby villages are here. It must be exciting."
The children talked without paying any attention to Chu Jinnian and Chu Jinzhou and just ran forward.
"Let's go and take a look." Chu Jinnian quickened his pace.
"Aren't we going to look for Sister Ning?" Chu Jinzhou quickly followed and asked.
"Just now those children said that if they win, they can get a lot of things, and these things are all from your sister Ning's workshop. So, where is your sister Ning?"
"I understand." Chu Jinzhou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he followed Chu Jinnian and walked forward quickly.
The two followed the children and walked through the village to the other end. As expected, they saw a crowd of people gathered at the entrance of the village, and cheers broke out from time to time.
Chu Jinnian took Chu Jinzhou to the side to watch this so-called football match.
The wide field, about two acres in size, was roughly leveled and marked with lime. On the left and right sides of the field, there was a wooden frame more than one person tall, with holes for fishing nets at the back. There was a person guarding each hole, and on the field, eight children were running back and forth, kicking the ball at their feet.
The children have red and blue bandages on their bodies, and it seems that they are divided into two groups. Both groups are trying hard to kick the ball into the other side's hole, but they are both blocked by the other side. The two sides are in a stalemate, which is very intense.
This is football.
It looks quite interesting.
Chu Jinzhou's face was full of surprise, and his eyes quickly stared at the football, unable to move away.
After taking a quick glance, Chu Jinnian looked at the crowd nearby. After a while of searching, he finally found Zhuang Qingning in the corner.
Zhuang Qingning was wearing trousers at this time, holding a few colorful flags in his hands, and was staring at the children playing football with a sharp gaze.
She originally had a thin figure, but now she stood there straight and tall, looking heroic. She looked even more heroic than usual, bright and charming.
"Your sister Ning is there, and your sister Sui is also here. Let's go together." Chu Jinnian said.
"Okay." Chu Jinzhou followed Chu Jinnian to find Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui.
"Lord Chu?" Zhuang Qingning was quite surprised by Chu Jinnian's arrival.
"I came to look for you and talk about the soap business, but when I saw that the door was closed and heard some kids nearby saying there was a football match, I came to see if you were here."
Chu Jinnian smiled and said, "I didn't expect it to be here."
"Of course he was, because I asked the village head uncle to help arrange this football match." Zhuang Qingning smiled.
"Oh?" Chu Jinnian was surprised and delighted, "Why did Miss Zhuang think of doing this?"
Girls are usually associated with knitting and needlework. Even if there are more associations, they are nothing more than music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Football is something that boys like to play at first glance.
"Well..."
You can't just say that you have to do daily tasks.
In the last daily task of sewing shoe soles, Zhuang Qingning received a fairly generous diligence reward, so he couldn't wait to ask a certain five to publish the second daily task.
When Zhuang Qingning first received this task, he was almost scratching his head.
Because the task requires holding a mass sports activity that is beneficial to physical health, and the number of participants must be no less than ten people.
Zhuang Qingning looked at this man who had been worried for two whole days.
After all, in this era, people have to be busy all day long to make a living, and it is a great thing to be able to take a rest in their spare time, let alone taking time for physical exercise. What's more, after looking at all the sports activities that are highly participatory and acceptable to everyone, there is really nothing wrong.
Until she went to the workshop, she saw Mrs. Wei, who was working in the preserved egg workshop, scolding her little son at the workshop door. She listened curiously for a while and finally understood that she was scolding him for being so busy playing Cuju that he tore a big hole in his clothes and didn't even do the housework.
When Zhuang Qingning was lamenting that children from poor families had to grow up early, he looked at the wicker ball and immediately came up with an idea.
Cuju has a long history and is the prototype of football. However, if traditional Cuju is to be played, the requirements are quite high. It would be better to change it into the appearance of football and have a suggested match. It would be fresh to watch and children could get familiar with the rules of the game relatively quickly, killing two birds with one stone.
Zhuang Qingning had an idea, so he asked Zhuang Jingye to take care of the matter. As for the reason, it was naturally that the adults were busy all day long, and there was nothing lively in the village during the New Year. The New Year was quiet, so holding a football match would be lively and make everyone happy.
Since it was Zhuang Qingning's suggestion, and all these things were produced by her workshop, Zhuang Jingye naturally agreed without hesitation and then went about taking care of the matter.
