The old stage looked particularly festive because of the maroon curtain.
Next to the stage, several slim figures in olive green were sorting out the props and costumes for the performance.
In front of the stage, everyone was still chattering about their daily lives.
There were also those who kept glancing towards the side of the stage.
"Female arts soldiers are so beautiful. Look at their faces, as tender as peeled eggs. They are nothing like the girls in our village, who are all dark..." a middle-aged woman couldn't help but sigh.
"Don't let your daughter work in the fields. In less than a year, she will be able to show you for nothing."
"Yeah, how can we, the peasants who work in the wind and rain and face the earth and back to the sky every day, compare with the girls from big cities?"
"People are shaped by the land and water they live in. Girls in the city drink tap water. When they turn on the tap, it flows out. We, on the other hand, have to dig shallow wells, and the water that comes out is so harsh that it hurts our teeth."
"Even if your teeth are hurt, I don't see that you have lost a tooth..."
…
The laughter from the audience was getting louder and louder.
Some little ones who couldn't calm down were laughing and playing around the crowd.
Su Ziyu carefully held his young wife in his arms, fearing that she would be touched by the little ones who were playing around.
Her cautious look made the young girls and wives in the village envious.
"This person who is pregnant is called pregnant. The one from the second branch of the Su family..." The person who spoke laughed.
I've only said half of what I said, and those who understand will understand.
"The other person got married with a formal matchmaker and spent a lot of money on it. What's hers? She married without a matchmaker and she doesn't respect herself. How can she expect others to respect you more?"
"It's not called unmatched adultery, they have a matchmaker." Someone joked with a smile.
"You have a matchmaker? Even if you have a matchmaker, you can't just go into Su Zijie's bed on the first day. If it were in ancient times, he would be thrown into a pig cage."
"You have to say that Secretary Su taught them well. They didn't get married even after getting married. They behaved very well. The one from the second branch of the Su family..."
…
As they were talking excitedly, they saw Yang Erni and Wang Chunmei carrying a small stool and walking towards them. They looked at each other and shut up.
"Second sister-in-law, second brother, here..."
Under the dim light, Su Lili smiled and waved at Su Ziyu and Shen Zhihuan.
It was located right in front of the stage, with no obstructions and an excellent location. One could tell at a glance that it was the credit of her family's Party Secretary Su.
Knowing that the propaganda team of the art troupe was coming, some people came after lunch to grab good seats.
That prime location would have been sold out long ago if her family secretary Su had not "reserved" it in advance.
After taking a look at the densely packed crowd, Su Ziyu decisively protected Shen Zhihuan and went around the periphery.
Just as they reached the entrance of the brigade, several female arts soldiers in olive green clothes came out chatting and laughing. The moment they saw Su Ziyu, they were all stunned.
"Captain." The taller girl was the first to react and saluted Su Ziyu.
Seeing this, the female art soldiers standing behind her also hurriedly saluted.
This action made the villagers stare in amazement.
Everyone knows that the second son of Secretary Su has great potential, but no one knows how.
Not to mention that the villagers were unaware of the situation, even Zhang Fengxia and Su Changjiang, the two parents, knew that his position was a regiment leader.
As for other minor details, they are also unclear.
Su Ziyu nodded slightly without saying anything, his attention all on the young wife in his arms.
The villagers were envious of him.
In the darkness, a pair of eyes stared straight at Su Ziyu's angular and handsome face, with a dazed look, as if immersed in some beautiful fantasy.
"The second kid from Secretary Su's family is so impressive!"
"If my brat could be half as powerful as Secretary Su's second brat, it would be worth it even if I died right now."
"The Su family's ancestral grave is already smoking. Can your family's ancestral grave also be smoking?"
"Don't tell me, Secretary Su's second son is really good to his wife!"
In the darkness, the owner of the eyes gritted his teeth and lowered his gaze a little, squinting at the extremely annoying person, his eyes full of unwillingness and desire.
He just wanted to pull Shen Zhihuan away from Su Ziyu's arms and take his place.
"Captain Su, do you know that tall girl just now?" Shen Zhihuan asked in a low voice.
If she remembered correctly, the tall girl was Xiao Xiaohua, the white moonlight in Zhou Xiaodong's heart.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
And the white moonlight in Xiao Xiaohua's heart...
Shen Zhihuan looked up at Su Ziyu's beautiful face that had brought disaster to the country and the people.
"Which one?" Su Ziyu lowered his eyes to look at the young wife in his arms, his voice gentle and his eyes blank.
"It's the one who saluted you first." Seeing that her Captain Su looked confused, Shen Zhihuan pointed it out directly.
"I should have seen her, but I'm not sure what her name was. What? Do you know her?" Su Ziyu thought about it carefully, but still couldn't think of a name.
Shen Zhihuan chuckled.
If someone confesses to you, you just dismiss it with the four words "you should have seen it before".
As they were talking, they had already arrived in front of the stage.
"Second sister-in-law, come here quickly."
Su Changjiang and Zhou Xiuqiao sat at the edge, with Zhang Fengxia, Xiao Qiping and Su Lili in the middle, and two empty seats in the middle.
Xiao Qiping insisted on sitting with Shen Zhihuan, and Su Lili also wanted to sit with Shen Zhihuan. For a win-win situation...
Su Lili moved to the middle, making room between her and Xiao Qiping.
As a result, Su Ziyu grabbed him by the collar and threw him to the empty seat next to him.
"Mom, look at my second brother..." Seeing Shen Zhihuan being dragged to sit next to Su Ziyu, Su Lili stomped her feet in dissatisfaction.
"Are you here to see your second brother, or to see the cultural performance?!" Zhang Fengxia glared at Su Lili and handed the extra bamboo fan in her hand to Su Ziyu.
Everything is good in the mountains, except that there are a lot of mosquitoes in the summer, especially at night. If you don't have a bamboo fan in your hand, you can't sit still at all.
"Dad, look, my mother's heart is almost in her armpits." Su Lili turned her head to look for help.
"You know your mother is partial to you, but you still rush to find out about your second brother's affairs. Don't you think you are stupid?" Su Changjiang gently shook the bamboo fan in his hand.
Everyone in Panshi Village knows that his wife favors the second boy.
"...Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, my father and mother's hearts are bent on our arms." Su Lili stamped her feet and cried.
Shen Zhihuan and Zhou Xiuqiao smiled at each other without saying anything.
In other families, parents will try to cover up their partiality.
Their mother-in-law really doesn't hide anything at all and tells everyone openly that she is partial to her second son.
If anyone has any opinions, keep them to yourself.
