Chapter 2 Love and Hate
"What about people?" Xiang Sina turned around and searched in the crowd for a long time, but she didn't find Wei Shihao's figure, so she asked the maid next to her angrily.
The crowd in the audience was excited, and kept teasing: "Miss Xiangjia, throw, throw the hydrangea!" Brother is tired of waiting for it. ”
"Miss, he got into the cornfield and ran!" The maid beside her pointed to the cornfield that was still shaking its leaves, and said embarrassedly.
"Damn it......" Xiang Sina looked at the crowd watching the excitement in the audience, ashamed and angry, and the tears of grievance rolled down like beads with broken threads.
"Nana, what's going on? Your hydrangea is thrown! Don't keep that little brother waiting. When the rich man saw that his daughter had not thrown the hydrangea for a long time, he was anxious, and hurriedly urged his daughter to throw the hydrangea, and he was very satisfied with the little brother who sang the song.
"Woo woo......" Xiang Sina didn't answer, hiding her face with tears of grievance.
Xiang was taken aback by the rich man, feeling that something was wrong, he squinted his eyes and looked at the audience again, all the descendants in the audience were almost the same, and he couldn't tell which one was the little brother who sang just now.
The rich man hurriedly got up and walked to his daughter's side, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The maid next to her replied: "Master, I don't know why, the elder brother who sang the song ran away without picking up the hydrangea." ”
"Huh? There is such a thing, is it not worthy of him that my eldest lady is still worthy of him? Xiang said angrily to the rich man.
The old man who had been sitting next to the rich man got up and came over to comfort him, "It's okay, it's okay! It is common for the offspring to be thin-skinned and not understand the rules, and then send someone to send the hydrangea to his house. ”
There are still people who are reluctant to take the hydrangea when they throw the hydrangea to the eldest lady, which makes the rich man feel very embarrassed, and he is embarrassed to say: "I'm really embarrassed to see the smile!" ”
"Alas...... Where's the talk? How can the golden beetle son-in-law be so easy to recruit? If he had received this hydrangea today, the old man might have looked down on him a little...... Out of the way, out of the way! The old man comforted against his will.
In fact, according to the customs of the Zhuang people, not receiving hydrangea is equivalent to rejecting this family business, and the old man is just afraid of embarrassment to his family and playing a round.
"Hehe, Master Lu said it very well! How can I not be welcomed by the eldest lady of the family? He bowed to the rich man again, in fact, he also knew in his heart that the other party was just saying words of comfort.
At this time, the excitement of the people watching the excitement in the audience was undiminished, shouting for Xiang Sina to hurry up and throw the hydrangea continuously.
"Go, go, go...... It's all gone, and that's the end of the song! When the housekeeper saw this scene, he immediately walked to the front of the stage to drive everyone away.
Most of the people in the audience were tenants of the Xiang family, and after the housekeeper drove them away, they all left in a funny way.
Xiang Sina, who had already cried into tears, had already rushed into the door of Xiang's house and fell into her boudoir and cried bitterly. She has always been arrogant and has never taken a fancy to any of her elder brothers. However, today, she took a fancy to her, but the other party ignored her and humiliated her in public, how could she not be sad?
At this time, a group of five or six horsemen and horses galloped from the main road to the west.
The leader was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, wearing a purple silk and a long sword at his waist, with an extraordinary bearing, and at a glance he knew that he was the son of a powerful family.
This young man is slightly chubby, with a round face and small eyes, and his appearance is not outstanding, but on the whole, he can also be called handsome.
When the crowd that had just dispersed from the song saw this group of people, they all hurriedly dispersed to both sides to make way for them.
The group headed straight for the house.
"Oops, it's late, it's late." The boy muttered to himself as he whipped up.
When he looked at the master, he knew that the person who came was his distant cousin, and hurriedly got off the stage to wait. The old man who came to listen to the song took his entourage with interest and quietly left.
"Eldest nephew, why are you here now? Hurry, please in the house! Said to the master.
......When the horse galloped to the old man, the young man shouted, stopped, turned over and dismounted, and saluted: "Junior-Deng Qiantu to meet my cousin!" The migrants have something to do today, but they are late. What about my cousin? Is this song gone? ”
"Alas...... Moti ...... Mo Ti ......" shook his hand at the rich man.
"What's going on? My cousin, what about her? Deng Qiantu asked.
"It's all back to the room...... What is this song called? Xiang said helplessly to the rich man.
Deng Qiantu vaguely felt that something was wrong, so he didn't ask any more questions, and rushed straight into Xiangfu.
Xiang Sina fell on her bed and was crying sadly, and several maids kept coming forward to comfort her, but to no avail.
"Sina, what's going on? Tell my brother about it. Deng Qiantu rushed into the room, saw Xiang Sina, who was crying breathlessly, and asked urgently.
"Woo woo ......" Xiang Sina glanced up at Deng Qiantu, then buried his head under the silk quilt and continued to cry.
"Ahh......h You should say a word, so that my brother can be angry for you! "Deng Qiantu is a short-tempered person, he was furious when he saw this scene, and there were still people who dared to provoke his cousin Deng Qiantu in these years, it was simply looking for death!
"It's not that rotten boy you respect-Wei Shihao!" Xiang Sina lifted the quilt, said a word to Deng Qian, and cried on the bed again.
"What? This kid is too arrogant, he dares to bully you? I just wanted to clean him up! You can't blame me for this. Deng Qiantu said angrily.
"Isn't it? Miss is a song to recruit relatives, he won the song, did not pick up the hydrangea, and slipped away, what is this? The straight-talking maid said on the side.
"Dare to provoke the people of my Deng family, this kid is looking for ...... death" After Deng Qiantu gritted his teeth, he turned his head and hurried out.
"Hey, hey...... Cousin, don't mess around...... Don't hurt him! After Deng Qiantu went out, Xiang Sina felt that the matter was serious, and immediately got up and shouted after him, but where was there still a trace of him?
"Hee-hee...... Miss still feels sorry for her brother! Seeing that Xiang Sina stopped crying, the maid joked on the side.
"Shut up, it's ...... eventual" Xiang Sina scolded the maid in her mouth, but she didn't really want to scold her, but felt that this girl's words were quite distracting, so she wiped the tears on her little face and burst into laughter.
Oh, yes! Why are you so sad about that decrepit boy? Isn't it just a song, people are in a hurry to leave! Isn't Xiang Sina worthy of him? Thinking like this, she felt a lot better.
"Miss, looking at Young Master Deng's posture, he will definitely eat that Wei Hehao!" Seeing that the young lady's mood was improving, the maid said again.
"Such an ignorant guy, it's good to teach him a lesson!" Xiang Sina pouted.
In fact, Wei Shihao's handsome face and the handsome and free when singing have been deeply imprinted in Xiang Sina's heart. But helplessly, she has a heart, but the other party has no intention.
Xiang Sina thought about it, and sang again:
Flowers have hearts and butterflies are not picked,
The lonely shadow of the empty night is coming again.
I don't know where Lang Jun is now,
The night is empty and the room is sad.
The poignant singing voice came from Xiang Sina's boudoir, which was heartbreaking, and made many single brothers eager to try. It's a pity that so far, except for Wei Shihao, who doesn't understand the amorous feelings, none of them are her dishes.
Compared with Xiang Sina, who was in a low mood at this time, Wei Shihao had not yet come out of the excitement of the song, he and Li Maozi ran wildly for several miles in the cornfield that was taller than a person's head, and then rushed out of the cornfield.
"Brother...... Elder brother...... Take a break, I can't run. ”
Li Maozi poked the flat pole to the ground, lay on it with both hands, hunched his waist, like a big buffalo that had just finished plowing the field, so tired that he opened his big mouth and gasped for breath, and the corners of his mouth were white foam. He breathlessly asked Wei Shihao to rest for a while.
"Look at your bear-like appearance, you've only been running for a few miles, and you're tired like this?" Wei Shihao didn't feel tired at all, his face was still full of excitement after winning the mountain song, and the coolness in his heart was something that no one could experience.
Wei Shihao's father, Wei Darthead, didn't know which tendon was on the wrong line, and he was forbidden to sing mountain songs. Wei Shihao did not dare to disobey Abba's order, and never dared to hum a mountain song at home.
Mountain songs are a unique form of dialogue among the Zhuang people, which can express the emotions of both parties well. Among the young people of the Zhuang nationality, it is very popular to connect with love and meet friends with mountain songs. For Wei Shihao, who has a cheerful personality and a good voice, how can he not sing mountain songs? When he went up to the mountain to collect medicine, he often sang it secretly alone, but he never dared to sing it at home or in the village, for fear that Abba would find out, and he would have to eat the whip.
"Who can compare with you? You are as strong as a cow, and it is estimated that you will run to our village in one breath, and you will not take a breath. Li Maozi rolled his eyes and said.
"Okay, okay! Then take a break and go. Wei Shihao said with a smile, walked to the grass next to Li Maozai, and sat down.
After Li Maozi also sat on the ground, he was surprised to find that because the speed of the two of them was too fast when crossing the cornfield, the herbs that had been tied to the flat pole had long since disappeared.
"Hey, where's my herb? That's a few copper plates...... No, I'll have to go back and find it. Li Maozi felt sorry for his two handfuls of herbs and wanted to go back the way he came to find them.
This kind of performance is completely different from his performance at the herbal medicine stall, which shows that Li Maozai's obsession with mountain songs is no worse than Wei Shihao.
"Forget it, when I go up the mountain to collect medicine another day, I'll pay you back. At this time, if you look back, if you are caught by the Xiang family, it will be a big trouble. Wei Shihao said.
After the two rested for a while, they sang all the way to the direction of Jingliu, and the beautiful singing resounded through the valley:
Mountain song is beautiful, Mountain song is beautiful,
Every mountain song is intoxicating.
The mountain song sang and floated over the col,
Angry old thrush in the forest.
