No.296 A stool, a blanket

There were a lot of people who noticed the situation here, and they gathered around one by one, smiling.

Liu Li, who was sitting on the stool, seemed to be a different person, seeing that there were more and more onlookers, he picked up the stool and walked into the forest, and Kang Langxiang actually followed.

"It's done!"

Someone laughed.

Wang Mingyuan and Han Xiaoling looked confused and didn't understand what was going on.

"How did it be?" Wang Mingyuan caught a glimpse of Zhang Shouzhong also coming over: "Could it be that there is anything special about that stool?" ”

"Of course, there is a special one, this is a way for the Dai girl who wants to find a partner to take the initiative to attack, called Confucian control."

Zhang Shouzhong pulled a mouthful full of food and swallowed it ferociously before he continued: "The so-called Confucian control is generally to set up a spinning place in the open space of the village, light a bonfire, and a group of little girls spin collectively, and the little girls who come will carry a stool with them.

If there is a young man who likes it, the girls will take out a stool and invite the young man to sit on it.

If you don't like it, no matter how the guy teases, he won't care.

If you like, you will put on a blanket and chat until the early hours of the morning.

Kang Langxiang, this girl, just borrowed her own stool to show her meaning, and she also likes Liu Li! ”

Wang Mingyuan and Han Xiaoling, the curious baby, suddenly widened their eyes.

After doing it for a long time, Liu Li couldn't hold back a word, but was taken down by Kang Langxiang with a stool first.

This is a matter of course.

"You have to pay attention to this, if you go to the Dai family's village in the future, you can't sit on any stool casually." Han Xiaoling whispered on the side: "You have to remember!" ”

This little housekeeper!

"The marriage is not over yet, and it is already in charge!" Wang Mingyuan said with a smile.

Zhang Shouzhong smiled: "It's really like that, you really have to pay attention." The young men and women of the Dai family express their love in a variety of ways, which is quite interesting. ”

"And varied...... You can tell me about it, and it can be regarded as a long insight! Wang Mingyuan suddenly became interested.

"You wait!"

Zhang Shouzhong walked back quickly, and added some food for himself to return, this time he didn't gobble up like before, and it was estimated that he already had a number in his stomach.

Back to Wang Mingyuan, he looked at the grass next to him and sat down.

Seeing this, Wang Mingyuan and Han Xiaoling also sat down on the grass and ate their meals slowly.

But I heard Zhang Shouzhong continue: "The Dai family has a love habit called 'string girl', according to the Dai language, it is 'invite less', which is a way for young men to take the initiative to pursue girls, in the months after the opening festival. ”

"Open door?" Wang Mingyuan asked curiously: "What is the festival?" ”

He had never heard of the festival at all.

"I know this, it's a traditional festival of the Dai, Brown, De'ang, and some Wa people, who believe in Theravada Buddhism, and I've heard people talk about it before, and it's probably in mid-September."

Han Xiaoling is worthy of being a person who has lived in this place for several years, but she also knows some customs and festivals in the surrounding villages.

"Yes, that's it!"

Zhang Shouzhong nodded and said: "At that time, the autumn harvest had already passed, and the grain was in the warehouse, so there was basically not much farm work, so it was more leisurely. Unmarried Dai boys will put on clean and tidy clothes, drape blankets, take bamboo seers or play the piano, and talk to girls. Of course, in general, I go to find the girl I like.

If it is not in your own village, you will go to other villages to find your love.

Here's where you need to pay attention......"

Wang Mingyuan hurriedly asked, "What do you pay attention to?" ”

"When you get downstairs to the girl, you can't rush up to the girl's attic, it's about reputation, but downstairs, playing the bamboo sera and pouring out your love, which is also an indirect date.

If the girl likes the guy, she will go downstairs to meet, and the two will chat slowly, and if they think it is appropriate, they will sit downstairs with a blanket and have a long talk. ”

Draped in a blanket...... A long talk?

Wang Mingyuan couldn't help but doubt the role of the blanket.

"Is it that if the girl doesn't like it, it won't appear?" Han Xiaoling is very serious about cashing in.

Zhang Shouzhong nodded.

Wang Mingyuan laughed: "It's no wonder that most young men and women of all ethnic groups are versatile, this doesn't know how to be talented, it's difficult to marry a daughter-in-law, well, you have to have a big enough blanket." ”

Zhang Shouzhong smiled: "You kid, this mind is not right, what are you thinking?" ”

Wang Mingyuan scratched his head: "It's really easy to reverie." Just the two things you said? ”

"And, of course, for example, selling chicken. It is when the opening festival comes, the girls slaughter a sturdy chicken of their own, stew it or braise it, and sell it.

The guy who came to buy chicken, if the girl didn't like it, she would ask for more money to make it difficult for people to retreat.

If they like it, they will bow their heads shyly to avoid the young man's gaze, and if the two are in love, they will carry the chicken and carry the stool into the grove...... Belch! ”

Although Zhang Shouzhong ate very slowly, a big bowl of rice was still one step ahead of Wang Mingyuan and Han Xiaoling, the two guys who listened to it with relish, and couldn't help but burp.

"What are you doing in the grove?"

Wang Mingyuan asked. He was very suspicious that Zhang Shouzhong was hanging his appetite and deliberately selling Guanzi.

"What else can you do, eat chicken together and tell each other about your love...... Blind again! Zhang Shouzhong laughed.

"Is it true?" Wang Mingyuan looked incredulous

"It's still fake!" Zhang Shouzhong glared at him.

"Interesting, if you have a chance another day, you have to try it!" Wang Mingyuan laughed.

When Han Xiaoling heard this, her eyes suddenly turned up, and she kicked Wang Mingyuan angrily,

“…… I don't have a blanket, I can't play and sing, and whoever looks up to me is the only one who will come back with me stupidly! ”

Wang Mingyuan spread his hands and said that he lacked ability, which made Han Xiaoling's bulging cheeks return to normal.

"Actually, what I said before is mainly the customs close to Banna, and our place is different. If the young guys want to find a daughter-in-law, they will find a wide blanket, wrap themselves all over the body, show only two eyes, and then stand on the side of the road and wait for the arrival of the girls, wrapped in a blanket, which is also a sign that they are not married.

The girls who did not have a subject were wearing light-colored coats, short shirts and trousers, and small waists.

As long as the young man sees a girl dressed in such a costume, he can come forward to talk and court, and if the girl has a crush on the young man, he will take off the blanket on his body and pull the girl off the road to talk in detail. ”

Zhang Shouzhong put the empty bowl aside, took out his pipe and began to roll dry tobacco.

"It's all wrapped up like that, what does the girl think of?" Han Xiaoling asked.

Yes, to a large extent, this is more like opening a blind box. Wang Mingyuan also felt strange.

"Didn't you say it all, just to talk about it, you must know more about it!" Zhang Shouzhong pouted. He leisurely lit himself a cigarette before he continued: "There are also ways to throw flower bags during Songkran Festival...... If you two don't eat again, the food will be cold! ”

Wang Mingyuan was slightly stunned, got up and looked at the big pot where he was cooking, and the bottom of the pot was clean.

He suddenly had a feeling that he had been delayed by Zhang Shouzhong.

Han Xiaoling came over at this time: "You said, Liu Li couldn't say it just now, could it be because of the lack of a blanket?" ”

This fairy question......

Wang Mingyuan thought carefully: "Don't say it, it's really possible!" ”

"Fortunately, Sister Xiang has a stool!" Han Xiaoling was thoughtful.

Wang Mingyuan looked at Han Xiaoling strangely, he was obviously still a little hostile before, why did he call Sister Xiang so quickly!

A woman's transformation is really fast.

"I'm more concerned about one question, will they come when the movie is shown tonight?" Wang Mingyuan suddenly asked.

"I guess so!" Han Xiaoling wasn't sure.

"Have you eaten enough?"

"Almost!"

"I'm still almost, the third uncle is really pitted, I will grill the fish and share it with you!" Wang Mingyuan suddenly remembered Zhang Shouzhong's murderous appearance when he was eating before, and he hooked up with him and missed the delicious ...... Not for the first time.
