Chapter 5 Tea Mountain Song Party (1)
Someone came to inform Uncle Ji that the Ji family's new tea was selected. The whole family is overjoyed, and they are busy preparing new tea every day to send it to Guanli as soon as possible. I'm the only one who can't keep my soul, and my spirit is getting worse and worse. Ming'er was anxious in her eyes, and she didn't dare to persuade her, she always frowned at me, and walked away with a sigh.
On the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar, Qingcheng tea is fragrant, and the tea picking festival is held as scheduled. Qingcheng Tea Mountain Village is connected to villages, villages and villages, and tea farmers have gone out of their homes to gather in Shili Tea Mountain to celebrate this tea picking event. Walking and singing, it is the festival of free acquaintance between men and women in ancient times.
Early in the spring, Yingying and Ming'er dressed up and looked forward to this event.
"Sister Ming'er, can you also help me comb my beautiful hair." Even Chunyan was dressed up with Ming'er.
I sat under the window and watched them lively, but I couldn't lift my spirits.
"Hey, I'm excited at a young age!" Ming'er saw that Chunyan had changed into a saffron dress early and joked.
"I also want to be beautiful, my sister is the spring heartbeat." Chunyan blushed and pointed to the spring warbler who was facing the mirror hairpin and smiled.
"Hey, you bad girl, dare to talk nonsense, see how I'm cleaning you up." The spring warbler pounced to twist my sister's mouth, and the sisters pounced around me, and the little spring swallow let out a giggle and laugh. It's a good time of the year, I smiled and watched them busy, but I didn't want the three of her to see that I was still wearing a cloth shirt for picking tea, and they all came forward to help me dress up. was in a bad mood, so she picked a plain white Luo skirt from the clothes she brought with her and changed it on, so that Ming'er loosely wore a hanging bun and decorated with a silver hairpin.
"The fairy has descended." Chunyan smiled and came to hold my hand.
"Swagger?" I looked at Ming'er.
"No matter how much my sister dresses, she can't hide her peerless face." Ming'er smiled, thought about it, ran to the courtyard to cut a pink camellia, and I was satisfied with the hairpin: "This will not be too plain, and it can also line my sister's jade face, which is unparalleled in the world." ”
"Nonsense!" I smacked at her and said, "If you don't leave, you'll get up early in the morning and catch a late meeting." ”
Talking and laughing all the way, before arriving at the place of the tea picking festival, there was singing in the distance, and it seemed that the song had begun.
We found a place where it was not too crowded to stand, and saw young girls in costumes standing in three or two rows of tea ridges like green walls, surrounded by people listening to songs and watching the game on the flat land, the forest and even the trees. Chunying pointed to a stone platform covered with flowers not far away and told me that it was the singing platform for the finals of the Tea Mountain Song Festival, and the tea pickers who won the title of singer could get rich prizes, so all girls who could sing would participate. Now it seems that the girls from other villages are singing with the daughters of the Liu family.
Girls, you come, I go, the tea song is loud, the lyrics are interesting, or folklore, or gags, and there are more girls who can't come up with a red face and retreat, the girl who won is full of pride, and the people around her are applauding or cheering, so it's not lively.
After a while, the Cuihong of the Liu family seemed to have won three games, and Zhengzhi asked proudly: "Who else dares to sing against me." "There is a great way for the king of singers to give up on me.
Ming'er wrinkled her nose and said, "I can't get used to her arrogant appearance, sister, you go to fight her, kill her majesty, and look at her posture of being the king without tigers and monkeys in the mountains, it's really annoying." ”
I shook my head and patted Ming'er on the shoulder, and said, "It's better to have less trouble." ”
"My sister is most afraid of things now." Seeing that I didn't allow it, Ming'er pulled Chunying forward and said loudly, "I'm right with you." ”
The two sides pulled apart, and the singing resumed......
Tea picking in the first month is the New Year, borrowing slave golden hairpins to point the tea garden.
Twelve acres of tea plantations were ordered, and the official wrote slowly and paid the money.
In February, the tea sprouts, and the sisters go to pick tea.
Sister picks more, sister picks less, picks more and picks less, and goes home.
In March, the tea leaves were green, and the sister embroidered a hand towel in the room.
The west side is embroidered with tea flowers, and among them is embroidered tea pickers.
Liu Cuihong's singing voice is tactful, Ming'er's singing voice is clear, the two of you come and I sing until March, I see that Ming'er has a faint sweat on her forehead.
In April, the tea leaves are long, delaying the Tanaka plough cowherd.
The plough is good and the field is old and old, and the seedlings are yellow and yellow.
After Liu Cuihong finished singing April, she waited for Ming'er to continue, but Ming'er hadn't thought about it yet, her face was slightly red, and she sang two sentences:
Tea picking tea leaves in May, the old dragon plate at the foot of the tea tree.
He lowered his voice, and was so anxious that he pulled the spring warbler beside him, and looked at me with his eyes a little flustered.
Burn money and paper to respect the land, and the green seedling land is safe.
In June, the tea picking is hot, and the willows are planted on the top and mulberry are planted below.
Plant more mulberry trees to raise silkworms, and plant willows to rest and cool.
In July, the tea leaves were scarce, and the sister sat on a high machine in the room.
Weave silk and satin, and weave tea clothes with Lang.
Liu Cuihong saw that Ming'er couldn't continue, so she grabbed the song and sang for two months, and didn't forget to pick Ming'er with her eyes when singing, Ming'er was shy and anxious, and there were tears in her eyes. Can't let people bully Ming'er, I made up my mind, lifted my skirt and squeezed forward, without waiting for Liu Cuihong's singing voice to settle, I sang:
In August, the tea flowers are yellow, and the wind blows the camellia all over the ground.
The eldest sister picked it for the second sister, and the morning tea did not have the fragrance of evening tea.
Tea picking in September is Chongyang, and Chongyang is full of fragrant wine.
Every family makes Chongyang wine, and three cups of wine are sacrificed to Chongyang.
While singing to me, he took the hands of Ming'er and Chunying, smiled and nodded to them, and they saw me like a savior, and hummed along to my tune. After the song ended, applause and cheers rang out, and Liu Cuihong on the other side had already changed her face, looked at me with a dark and heavy face, thought for a while, and sang:
In October, I picked tea and crossed the river, and walked on the bow of the boat.
Pedal the bow of the boat to go to the middle of the river, and return to the hometown after selling the fine tea.
After singing, he raised his eyebrows and flattened his mouth at me as if provocatively, I just didn't see it, and sang slowly:
Picking tea in the winter moon and winter in the winter, ten quintals of tea seeds and nine quintals of empty.
Ten quintals of tea seeds are empty and nine quintals are empty, and the tea picking lady wastes her work.
Layue picks tea for a year, and the backpack starts to beg for tea money.
You give me the money for the tea, and you go this year and wait for the next year.
In one go, not leaving half room for the opponent, I suddenly felt that this was me, my face was slightly hot, but my mood was greatly improved under the red glare. Don't think that my sister is a bully.
With cheers, applause, and laughter, I was in a trance back to the days in the Hibiscus Music Workshop, and now I think that the days there were not bad, at least, at least...... I can still see that person all the time. Just when I was in a trance, I didn't want to be pulled onto the stage, and I had become a tiger rider when I returned to my senses, and it turned out that the preliminary round was over and the finals began.
When I raised my eyes, I saw Liu Cuihong glaring at me viciously, and she was like silk and charming eyes on weekdays, but now she has become a triangular eye. I sneered in my heart, looked at her calmly and hooked the corners of my lips, and I didn't think so. Xu is my posture of not taking her in my eyes at all to provoke her, she said to the Chinese people in the countryside: "There is nothing new in the annual song meeting, but the familiar songs of the tea picking girls in ten miles and eight towns are re-sung, I propose a new idea, this year's song finals must be counted as singing and dancing." After saying that, he squinted at me.
Before the Chinese person spoke, the audience was already in a mess, and the sentient beings who were waiting to watch the play were all sorts of people, I couldn't help but laugh at the corners of my lips, alas, I actually wanted to compete with me, a woman from singing and dancing, sighing Isn't this Liu Cuihong just moving a stone to hit her own feet! was secretly thinking about it, and saw that Liu Cuihong had walked to Taichung, the snake's waist turned lightly, and her eyes swept away, and she sang and danced. In all fairness, her singing and dancing are rare and rare in this poor countryside, and with a red dress and a ten-out seduction frame, it makes the village farmers in the audience who have never seen the world stupid...... At the end of the song, she proudly raised her head to salute the audience, and when she turned around, she didn't forget to crook her mouth at me defiantly, probably thinking that she was already winning.
