Chapter 170: Old Man Xu
"Uncle Xu, tell us about your experience of winning five consecutive championships!"
Yue Lianshan was the first to jump off the dragon boat, and said with a smile, "My father is at home, just say how powerful he was back then, tell me, he is really so powerful?" β
"Stinky boy, your dad is holding your eldest nephew over there, be careful that he comes over and whips you!"
Old Man Xu slapped Yue Lianshan on the shoulder with a hippie smile.
Yue Lianshan smiled and squatted to the side honestly.
Others disembarked, squatted or stood.
The dragon boat race in Anshun County uses small dragon boats, after all, it is a village unit, and it is not easy to gather young oarsmen in the prime of life.
Including drummers, gong players, and helmsmen, there were 19 people in total.
The drum is the order, and the rudder is the life.
In a dragon boat race, the drummer beats the drum to drive the rhythm of the oarsmen, and the helmsman controls the direction and must cooperate with all his might.
Yue Lianshan is the gong player and the flag bearer.
Boss Xu is the drummer, while Boss Xu is the helmsman, controlling the direction.
The three of them occupy an absolutely important role in the dragon boat, and they are also the ones who bother to boil up.
As for the remaining sixteen oarsmen, they are divided into two rows with the dragon boat, and they paddle according to the drum sound of Boss Xu, as long as the rhythm is not chaotic and the output is stable, it is basically stable.
But if someone messes up the rhythm a little, it may affect the whole situation.
Old Man Xu looked at these familiar young men in front of him, clapped his hands, gathered everyone's eyes, and said, "Do you want to win?" β
"Thinkβ"
Everyone replied in unison, quite loudly.
Old Man Xu nodded with satisfaction.
"In the past few days, I have heard that people from other villages have sent matchmakers to our village to make stumbling blocks!"
"I don't want to find out if it's true or not!"
"After all, people live for themselves!"
"There's nothing wrong with thinking about yourself."
"However, what I want to tell you is that to be a man and do things, you must first stand up yourself!"
"As the old saying goes, if there is a plane tree at home, the phoenix will come by itself."
"What does this mean, I won't break it, you all understand!"
"It doesn't matter if you marry a daughter-in-law or a daughter-in-law, if you can't stand up on your own, can you really have a good life?"
"Think about it for yourself!"
"Also, our Lingshui Village hasn't made it to the finals for ten years!"
"This year is the last year!"
Old Man Xu raised his finger and pointed at Boss Xu, Second Boss Xu, "If our village is still the same as before this year, in the future, my family will not be involved in this dragon boat race again!" β
"I can't afford to lose this man!"
"For the dragon boat race in our village, my family's carriage trade changed hands. I'm not afraid to tell you that this trade is really profitable! β
"But my old Xu Tou is not a little vague!"
"Why? It's just for our Lingshui Village to have a good result. Let our Lingshui Village become the leader of these ten miles and eight villages! β
"Let you not be looked down upon when you marry your daughter-in-law!"
"Let the daughter of our Lingshui Village get married, and she can choose a wishful husband with her heart, so that her in-laws dare not look down on her!"
"Even if you now accept other people's conditions and set a family matter, can't he regret this family matter?"
"Grow your heart!"
Old Man Xu's gaze swept over everyone's faces, and when he saw that several of them were ashamed, he understood that what Old Man Yue said was true.
However, he did not name names.
In this life, people will always make a little mistake, but if they can change it, they are good children.
He's going to take a gamble!
