Text Chapter 51 Quite a big scene

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    What is a gravel road? To put it simply, it is a road paved with gravel.  The newly prepared blanks of this kind of road are extremely rough. Although it can be driven on, it will cause great damage to the tires. However, after being rolled by a roller, the roadbed becomes quite smooth and can be driven on.

    The low cost of gravel roads is very suitable for construction in rural areas with small traffic volume and no heavy traffic. In addition, Huangjiang stone is produced in the river, and the construction team can use local materials, so it can be repaired quickly. Liujiagou is going to be repaired.  The road was only a dozen miles long, and by November there was only a tail of road left.

    This does not affect the performance of Liujiagou. The stage has been set up on the dirt slope at the head of the village early. The place is spacious and there are several connected wheat fields at the bottom of the slope, which is convenient for people to watch the show.  In order to free up space for the theater, Liu Guangju also specially directed the villagers to move all the crops in the wheat field.

    On the thirtieth day, the troupe invited from outside the mountain also moved in to Liujiagou.

    The name of this troupe is called Big Horse Troupe. At first glance, it sounds like they are performing acrobatics. Later I found out that the name of the troupe leader is Zhao Dama. The night before his mother gave birth to him, he dreamed of a big horse.

    When they were unloading things, Liu Junhao and the young people in the village also went over to help, but they didn't get involved because there were only a few boxes of things, and those weapons, swords, and halberds looked like fakes at first glance.  He was just about to pull out a sword and take a look but was scolded by a person who looked like a small leader. As for those python robes, jade belts and phoenix crowns, he couldn't even touch them.

    Early in the morning on October 1st, I saw many people from other villages coming to Liujiagou in groups, riding bicycles or hiking.  Suddenly, Liujiagou seemed to have become a market.  Moreover, these people all looked very experienced, and they all carried chairs in their hands, probably hoping to get a good seat early. Many of them also carried food and ate it while walking on the road.

    At this time, the crops in the fields have just been harvested, and the winter wheat has not yet been planted. Therefore, it is a relatively free time for rural people. Many people travel ten or twenty miles just to watch the show.

    When Liu Junhao and Zhang Qian arrived there, they were a little shocked. Looking around, they saw that the stage was dark and full of heads. It looked like there were no less than 3,000 people. There were rows of bicycles behind the stage.  There are hundreds of them.  There are more than 20 private cars farther away, and even city residents are here?  Liu Junhao couldn't help but sigh, how did they know the news.

    "What are you thinking? Who in the city still goes to the theater now? These people are probably planning to come here during the National Day holiday. They just happen to come over to watch the show when it happens."

    Liu Junhao slapped his head, no, today is not the National Day, people in the city are on holiday, it is completely normal to visit Liujiagou.

    They walked to the place fifty meters away from the stage and couldn't squeeze in anymore because there were too many people.  Many naughty children even climbed up and squatted on the big tree nearby. There were five or six children sitting on the acacia tree as thick as the mouth of a bowl.

    Zhang Qian immediately became nervous when she saw it. She stood under the tree and yelled loudly, calling them all to come down one by one. Most of these children were her students. When they heard the teacher's order, they naturally became frightened and came down obediently.  But as soon as Zhang Qian turned around, they climbed up again like monkeys, one faster than the other.

    The play hasn¡¯t started yet, so the audience is in a mess, with people talking and vendors shouting with small speakers.  Liu Junhao admired the dedication of these traders and their business success.

    With the sound of gongs and drums, the show finally started after waiting for a long time. Those half-grown naughty children kept throwing firecrackers on the stage, and some of them were thrown into the middle of the theatergoers, which immediately attracted a burst of curses.  .

    Throwing firecrackers on the stage is an old tradition here. The country people believe that if the opera is good, it is good, and if it is bad, it is bad.  If they are good, they will throw firecrackers on the stage during the break. The more they throw, the better the performance is.  However, this group of half-grown boys were just messing around. The play hadn't even started yet, so they kept throwing things up. It wasn't until a few adults came over and scolded them that the naughty children sat down.  over there.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Liu Junhao belongs to the latter type of person.  He just came to watch the fun with Zhang Qian, so he became distracted after just watching for a while, and began to simply admire the men and women walking in and out of the stage, as well as the colorful and shiny facial makeup they painted.

    "Liu Junhao, what kind of play is this? Why can't I understand it?" Zhang Qian suddenly asked at this time. Her understanding of the play was only a little introduction in the book.

    "I don't know, maybe it's Peking Opera. I read in the book that it seems that Peking Opera facial makeup is used." Liu Junhao also explained awkwardly.  Although he had lived in Daqingshan since he was a child, he didn't understand a word of the Yiyi Ya Ya opera that was half written, half spoken, half shouted and half sung.

      "You young man, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. This is obviously our local opera Luantan. Where is Peking Opera? The main singing styles of Peking Opera are Xipi and Erhuang. Our Luantan" An old man who knew opera sat behind him.  When I heard him talking nonsense, I immediately scolded him. The most annoying thing for old people watching theaters is when someone talks nonsense despite not understanding.

    I was provoking someone, and I was not allowed to express my opinion. Liu Junhao saw that this old theater fan wanted to continue teaching him a lesson, so he quickly asked: "What kind of play are you always talking about?"

    "Rantan is just random, and there are other kinds of drama mixed in"

    Liu Junhao listened to this old opera fan's explanation for a long time before he figured out that "Emotional Play" is to put other opera types into a hodgepodge and put it on the stage, and sing indiscriminately. No wonder it can only become a grass opera troupe (I don't know, right?  Is Luantan¡¯s explanation correct? I¡¯ve heard old people say it before. In my understanding, Luantan is like this. I know very little about drama. I hope you won¡¯t blame me if I¡¯m wrong. I¡¯ve always been the kind of person who watches dramas to watch the excitement.)

    He watched it for a while and found it really boring. There were just a few people singing back and forth on the stage, and he couldn't understand the singing.  But every few minutes, the veteran opera fans in the back would yell "Hello" and then keep clapping their hands.  Every time the old man suddenly shouted, he would be startled. If he continued like this, he would suffer a neurasthenia.

    "I'll go out for a while, and you can watch first." Liu Junhao finally couldn't stand it any longer, so he picked up his chair and said.

    "I'll go out with you too." Zhang Qian also moved the chair.

    "Young man, this play is busy, why are you leaving?" The old theater fan asked a little strangely when he saw that they were leaving.

    "You take your time and watch, we still have something to do"

    They were sitting on the side, so it was easy to get in and out, and they didn't disturb many people. When they came out of the crowd, they looked at each other and laughed. Not everyone can appreciate the quintessence of the Chinese nation.

    He saw a vendor selling roujiamo in the free space next to him. Many children gathered around to buy it. Liu Junhao also became interested and asked Zhang Qian if he wanted it. Then he bought two and took them back without waiting for her answer.  , the two of them wrapped it in paper and stood outside the venue to eat it.

    This Roujiamo is made authentically. Although the meat inside is fatty pork, it is braised until crispy. In addition, the chopped coriander mixed in it removes the fishy smell of the fat. It tastes smooth but not greasy, and does not require teeth.  The meat rots in your mouth when you bite it, and the smell of meat is still left in your mouth after eating.

    After eating, he was looking around when he saw Liu Guangju smiling and holding a small piece of paper in his hand, standing in front of the camera and reading his lines.

    "He's going to be on TV again. Is he from the county TV station?" Liu Junhao couldn't help but be a little surprised. He didn't expect that this big show would also attract people from the county TV station.

    ??The timing of the drama in Liujiagou is good, it happens to be during the National Day, and the county has just opened a grandstand for the construction of rural spiritual civilization to celebrate the National Day. Now Liujiagou has become a typical example.  The meaning of the drama has also changed. In the words of TV reporters, it became "a grand event for our rural cadres and groups to celebrate the National Day."
