Since the factory has invited a troupe to stay for a long time, it naturally has to keep up, so it has specially built a large auditorium, singing on stage, and rows of seats like a movie theater under the stage.

But it's just a long strip of seats, not one by one, so that more people can be seated.

This is already very professional, when I used to go to other villages to watch plays, they were all open-air, and I brought my own stools.

In addition to the installation of air conditioning, these days during the free period of fear of too many people, air conditioning and refrigeration are insufficient, but also deliberately installed a few large fans in the high place, hula blowing.

Not to mention that in order to listen to the play, it is good for the surrounding villagers to bring their grandsons over to blow the air conditioner.

In fact, this kind of local drama is only listened to by some elderly people.

There is still a long time before the play starts, but the front seat has been almost occupied, and the sound of knocking melon seeds, chatting and chatting, and scolding children is also very noisy.

Zhou Heng and Jiang Xiaoxuan didn't go in first, and planned to take a look around outside, because it was also very lively outside.

"This place is well repaired! There aren't many people in this village who go out to work, right?" Jiang Xiaoxuan asked as she watched.

There is a business in my village, and it is doing well, so it must be recruiting workers nearby. That's good.

From time to time, she looks at the snacks on the side of the road or something, and if there is something she thinks is good, she will think about buying some and trying them.

There is also a hunting psychology for girls.

This actually gives her a feeling of niche travel, and she has a personal tour guide with her. Of course, tourism is not only about seeing beautiful scenery, taking selfies, buying souvenirs, etc., but also getting close to the local culture is the foundation of tourism.

More and more people are coming from all over the place, especially these snack places, which are almost crowded and very lively.

Zhou Heng accompanied her to watch the flowers, and unconsciously stood outside her, so as not to squeeze her or bump into her.

Probably men take women shopping subconsciously like this?

Jiang Xiaoxuan pointed to a roasted sweet potato stall not far in front of her, and said with a smile: "In many romance novels, there will be a plot where the hero and heroine go to buy a roasted sweet potato after work and then eat it separately. Especially in winter, I hold my hand warmer while eating, forming sweet memories, hahaha......"

Zhou Heng continued: "Then women can't stand this kind of hard life, so although they love this man from the bottom of their hearts, they still secretly follow their boss as Xiaomi, and the male protagonist is pitiful and dumped, and then he begins to work hard, become a female star, become rich and handsome in seconds, and become more powerful than the former boss, but the woman regrets it again?"

Jiang Xiaoxuan was still smiling, and after listening to him, she gave him a roll of her eyes.

Is this man a devil? It's not romantic at all, it's boring.

Then I saw someone squeeze him, but he didn't move, still giving her enough space.

Well, seeing that he is quite a gentleman, I will not bother with him.

Zhou Heng didn't notice her gaze, but when he saw that there was a fresh lotus pod selling in front of him, he asked, "Do you want to eat that?"

Fresh lotus pods are not available every day, they are truly a seasonal delicacy.

Even if it is sold elsewhere by air, and it is aged after two days, the taste is far worse.

This one looks quite fresh, and it should have been picked today.

Jiang Xiaoxuan's eyes also lit up, and said, "Okay! I still like to eat this." ”

Zhou Heng bought ten yuan and five. Seeing the wild water chestnut still sold at the stall, I also weighed some. Wild water chestnut is delicious, sweet, crisp and fresh, but the shell is a little difficult to peel.

Jiang Xiaoxuan said: "Is this also water chestnut? It's different from what I used to eat." ”

"Don't worry, this one is delicious, I won't lie to you. If you don't like it, it's okay, I'll finish it. ”

Jiang Xiaoxuan: "......"

After just walking around for a while, Zhou Heng carried several things in his hand.

met a marshmallow seller again, Zhou Heng originally ignored it directly, but Jiang Xiaoxuan was very excited to buy this to eat.

Zhou Heng thought to himself, isn't it just a snack, is it necessary to be happy like this?

However, when he bought two and ate one for each person, he also thought, well, it's quite delicious, it's so fragrant, and when he comes back later, remember to buy some more.

After walking through all the food stalls, Zhou Heng couldn't lift it in his hand, except for what Jiang Xiaoxuan wanted to eat, there were some things he bought for his mother and a few of them.

The time was about right, and they followed the crowd to the factory to watch the play.

The stage over there has already been set up, and the big red velvet curtain covers the lifter, which is quite decent and formal.

However, Zhou Heng didn't have much interest in the play, he didn't understand, he came here completely because he wanted to pick up his mother and them, and now he just joined in the fun.

When I was a child, I liked to follow adults to the theater, and at that time there were not many entertainment activities, so I could buy snacks to eat when I followed the theater, and I didn't have to herd cattle at home.

When he follows the play, he always runs here and there, and especially likes to go backstage to watch people put on makeup and fake beards.

What impresses me more is that there is a scene that is not sung, but is funny by a few harlequins, what kind of stupid son-in-law returns to the door, foolish marries and so on. When he saw the harlequin playing tricks on stage, he would also laugh along.

Zhou Heng walked over, found the seat that his mother helped them occupy, and then gave them the snacks, and several women were happy and smiling.

In other words, he used to play to eat snacks, but now he is buying snacks for his mother.

The deceased is like a husband, it is really a snap of a finger.

Jiang Xiaoxuan is the first time to watch a play like this, and the experience is very fresh, anyway, sitting down is just eating snacks, and it feels good.

Zhou Heng said: "When we were young, there was a family in the village who invited the troupe for their birthday, and they all set up a temporary stage, and sometimes when Wusheng jumped around on the stage, the board was bounced one by one. This one is very high-end, and it is all cement tables. ”

Since the play has not started yet, the whole auditorium is now full of people, children chasing and fighting, beating and scolding children, children crying loudly, plus the big fan is blowing, so the speech is a little inaudible.

Jiang Xiaoxuan leaned her ear over and asked, "What did you say?"

Zhou Heng said again into her ear.

Jiang Xiaoxuan retracted her ears, and then couldn't help but reach out and rub them, there was heat coming in, and her ears were so itchy. For a moment, her heartbeat was a little chaotic.

Zhou Heng peeled a handful of lotus seeds, handed them to Jiang Xiaoxuan, and asked, "Do you want to help you peel the skin?"

He just peeled the lotus seeds out of the lotus pod, and didn't help peel off the skin.

Jiang Xiaoxuan was a little embarrassed, but she was extremely calm on the surface, grabbed a few grains from his hand, and said, "I'll peel it myself." ”

The tender ones are easier to peel, and they taste very moist, very sweet, very fragrant, and fresh.

After eating only two pills, she said, "No, this one is too little to eat." ”

I just bought five!

It was too noisy around, Zhou Heng stretched out his ears and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

"The lotus seeds are delicious, I bought too little. Jiang Xiaoxuan whispered into his ear.

Zhou Heng retracted his ears, feeling that his eardrums were about to be burst, so he couldn't help but reach out and rub them, then got up and said, "I'll go buy some more, anyway, the play hasn't started yet." ”

I don't understand it anyway, and besides, I'm here for snacks.

Jiang Xiaoxuan didn't hear what he said clearly, but when he stood up, he knew that he had gone out to buy it again.

She couldn't help but smile, remembering that when she went out with her parents, no matter what country or place, her mother said she wanted to eat, and her father would buy it for her.

She felt that her father was a good father.

Not long after, Zhou Heng brought a big bag over, in addition to the lotus pod, he also bought something else, and also gave some to his mother.

Next, he peeled another water chestnut and tasted it, and it felt pretty good, with a fresh smell.

This is a wild water chestnut, not the common horn-shaped, and it will be more tender to eat.

Compared with lotus seeds, this is not so easy to peel, just when he bought water chestnut, Zhou Heng bought a gadget by the way, which is specially used for peeling.

He tried his hand and it was good.

Now people really know how to invent, think that at the beginning, when he was a child, he went to the pond to pick up the wild water chestnut, which was called a hard work.

A large pot of wild water chestnut, the family is the first to pick the tender one to eat, the one is easy to peel, and then there are all the difficult ones left, and they start to bite with their mouths.

The bite of the mouth is not easy to bite clean, not to mention, the skin still has a bitter taste. In order to eat delicious water chestnuts, I can only endure it.

But now that people have invented gadgets, it's much easier.

Zhou Heng tried to peel a few, which was quite fun, so he specially peeled them, peeled them out and put them in a bag.

Jiang Xiaoxuan saw that there was a peeled one, so she quietly stretched out her hand and stole one, feeling a little embarrassed, smiled at him with a hippie smile, and then quickly stuffed it in her mouth.

This wild water chestnut is really sweet!

This kind of wild seasonal fruits and vegetables is not something that can be eaten at any time if she has money, and she really hasn't eaten this before.

Zhou Heng looked at her like that, and felt that the goddess had become a girl, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can eat it, there are too many of this." ”

This can not only be eaten raw, but also cooked, such as peeling it out and making soup with pork ribs, or boiling it with spiced flavor and eating it with wine.

However, Zhou Heng always believes that this kind of raw food is more delicious.

As he spoke, there was a burst of music in the background, the play was about to start, and the surrounding voices became sharply quieter.

In this regard, the elderly people who come to listen to the play are very conscious, because they can't understand it in the first place, and if someone makes any more noise, it will be even more incomprehensible.

As soon as the music started, someone in the background began to babble and sing, and the curtain was slowly lifted, and a Danjiao in a red costume stepped out of the stage.

The makeup is not sloppy, the painting is still clear-eyed, and it is not perfunctory because it is free to sing, which shows that the boss of the factory has given enough money.

In other words, the artists start performing seriously when they get on stage, and they will not disappoint their stage.

From the table shape to the makeup, to the costumes, to the singing, it is all standard practice.

To be honest, although I don't understand it, the graceful posture and melodious singing voice are still very charming, and they give people artistic enjoyment.

The audience immediately fell in and began to listen earnestly.

Jiang Xiaoxuan listened while taking the time to eat a snack, feeling good - the local opera is sung in dialect Mandarin, she can't understand it more than Zhou Heng, and she can only taste the charm at all.

But this kind of viewing in front of the stage and watching it on TV are completely different feelings. The atmosphere of the scene, seeing the expressions and body language of the artists up close, is really different.

Zhou Heng couldn't understand it anyway, although he knew that these people sang professionally, but he couldn't pay attention to the stage.

So he peeled the water chestnut skin vigorously.
