As soon as you step out of the music bar, you are greeted by the cool fresh air of the night.

Xiao Yao couldn't help but take a deep breath, trying to bring a moment of clarity to his brain paralyzed by alcohol, but it caused a violent cough.

"What are you doing, you're asthmatic?" Tang Xuewei patted him and affectionately cut his elbow on Xiao Yao's left shoulder.

Want to eat back grass now? It's late.

Xiao Yao secretly sneered in his heart, quietly pushed Tang Xuewei's hand away from his body, and said lightly: "No, it's too stuffy inside, and the air outside is good." ”

Originally, according to the meaning of Lao Tang and Lao Tang, they wanted to go to the dance hall, but Xiao Yao objected, saying that the outdoor air was good and conducive to sobering up, so the four of them walked four or five hundred meters along the sidewalk next to the green belt and arrived at the open-air dance floor near the Dongru County Experimental Primary School.

This open-air dance floor is free of admission and is purely public welfare, in fact, it is a descending platform close to the artificial lake of the county party committee compound. In the summer, there are always people who come here with a couple of big floor-to-ceiling speakers to play dance music, well, it's essentially square dancing.

However, in this square, the ballroom dance of the duo is still dominant. Generally, the playback rule of dance music is that after 2~3 ballroom dances, there will be a passionate square dance - songs such as "Love Treaty".

As a spontaneous non-commercial activity of the townspeople, there are some business opportunities here: there are people who sell soda and cold drinks, glow sticks, balloons, the kind of headdresses that shine on their heads, and even the kind of shoes that children wear that sparkle when they run.

As an aside, in fact, Xiao Yao only heard the word "square dance" after he went to the magic capital, because Dongru people call this kind of "collective dance", which proves that the people in the town are more collectivist.

In any case, this open-air dance floor is truly "for all ages" and can be found in everything from old men and grandmothers, aunts and uncles to middle and high school students, and even younger children – in essence, it is a public summer spot for the townspeople.

When Tang Xuewei and his party of four arrived, it happened to usher in the "group dance" time, she excitedly dragged Lao Tang with one hand and Xiao Yao with the other, rushed onto the dance floor, and found three vacant positions in the queue square as neat as radio gymnastics.

The reason why there are three is because Yu Luying refused to join. She smiled, shook her head, refused Tang Xuewei's deadlift and instigation, just leaned on the railing by the lake, and said I'll take pictures of you all.

Xiao Yao suddenly remembered that when he took Yu Bo's catechism class before, the old yellow calendar from 1912 said that "over-indulging in dancing is a sin", and remembered that on the balcony last night, Yu Luying and him expressed a similar view that "it is shameful to dance in public", so he spoke out to stop Tang Xuewei and told her not to be difficult.

"Then I began to recite the first love treaty, and all the dispatches must be willing, to be her chauffeur, to be her courier, and to be her ATM,"

Tang Xuewei seemed to be a master in this, which made Xiao Yao think of Shen Tianyun inexplicably. He began to follow Tang Xuewei clumsily raising his hands, kicking his legs, high-fives, and turning in circles, although his movements were not very standard, but he was originally trying to have fun.

Xiao Yao thinks it's quite fun to jump occasionally, at least it's a lively + crazy person, but it's still very incomprehensible to be fanatical like Shen Tianyun, but there is no need to force understanding if you are interested in such things.

"Follow me to repeat the second love treaty, the white lie must be told without changing her face, she is good at everything, she is beautiful no matter what, and then swear to love her for the rest of her life without regrets."

Xiao Yao suddenly realized that in fact, the joy of square dancing does not lie in the dancing itself, but in essence it is a social activity.

Since this activity is popular in 2034, my daughter can understand why she is keen on it as a major activity to socialize with her classmates and friends.

Thinking of the first night before he left the magic capital, Shen Tianyun inexplicably said to himself, "TA doesn't want me anymore, they don't want me anymore", Xiao Yao felt a deep uneasiness in his heart, and secretly decided to wait for his daughter to ask his daughter for clarification after returning to the magic capital.

"When getting along, remember to let her reverse right and wrong, and when she is reasonable, she must pretend that she is aware of it; Let her complain in pieces, spoil her heart like water, between the virtual and the real, fluttering like a fairy......"

Xiao Yao suddenly had a strong disgust and disgust for the lyrics of this song.

In fact, he sang this song in elementary school, and he skipped it here in junior high school, and he didn't think about it at the time, and he didn't think it was a problem.

But it sounds like today, isn't this what Shen Tianyun said in that era, "turtle man", "licking dog"?

As a popular aesthetic culture, what kind of values is this instilling in men?

Thinking of his own generation, mainly Xiao Yao himself, who had been poisoned by this kind of culturally oriented thinking and took a lot of detours, the teenager had an irrepressible physiological nausea, and he couldn't wait to smash the speaker with a punch.

Fuck ...... stopped jumping, Xiao Yao shook his hand and walked to the railing by the lake where Yu Luying was leaning.

No, wait a minute, why did the little Apple Man lose it again?

After turning around in place a few times, looking around, the dance was finished, and the little apple held a ...... A pair of glowing, long, rabbit ears scurried over in small steps.

Ah, Ya Butterfly Ya Butterfly.

The little apple ran to Xiao Yao, and regardless of whether Xiao Yao was happy or not, his back heel was two centimeters off the ground, and he put on the glowing rabbit ears for Xiao Yao.

"Cute pinch," Little Apple stroked his palm and smiled, "Big Rabbit Paper." ”

Xiao Yao cooperated with her to stick out her front teeth against the bottom of her lips.

Tang Jiaxin and Tang Xuewei also gathered around at this time, and praised the rabbit ears as quite in line with Xiao Yao's temperament.

After a group dance, followed by two ballroom dances, Xiao Yao wore rabbit ears and accompanied Yu Luying to lean on the railing by the lake to watch the curly-haired old Tang and Tang Xuewei dance.

During this period, Xu Ruiyi actually changed to a very bluffing motorcycle, looking like a biker in the comics.

"This ear fits you perfectly." Xu Ruiyi said.

"This is called slow three," Xiao Yao explained to Yu Luying while watching: "The song just now should be the slow four, slow three and slow four are the simplest and entry-level ballroom dances...... Damn, is that Shuyi? ”

"It seems to be, Shuyi!" Little Apple raised her hand to greet the child.

That "Shuyi" is the little niece who lives at the house of "Uncle Zhou" on the next floor of Xiao Yao's house, let's be regarded as Xiao Yao's little half of the green plum, Yu Luying also tutored her with math homework yesterday afternoon.

The kid was wearing a light blue short-sleeved T-shirt, brown mid-pants, ankle-length flesh-colored stockings and nude-colored plastic sandals.

"Sister Yingying, Brother Yaoyao!" Shuyi said hello to the two of them, and disappeared into the crowd with the little fat man.

“…… Do you want to let my Uncle Zhou know? Xiao Yao stroked his chin and quipped.

"You two-and-five!" Yu Luying glared.

"Just kidding," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I'm not a bad guy." ”

After the slow three dances of this song, the classic fast three "waltz" "Love in the Dust" sounded in the square - this is a song that Xiao Yao and Yu Luying both like very much, and it is also one of the signature songs of the old wolf and the short and tight.

Xiao Yao was about to ask Yu Luying if she wanted to learn to jump, she could teach her, but Tang Xuewei ran over and stretched out her hand to Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao just wanted to subconsciously refuse, but Yu Luying had already pushed him from behind: "Go."

Before the young man could react, Tang Xuewei had already grabbed his hand, hooked his shoulder with the other hand, and led him to the center of the "dance floor".

"That day, at dusk, began to drift snow, sad, blooming all over the hills, waiting for the end of youth......"

Xiao Yao felt the temperature from Tang Xuewei's palm, and an inexplicable feeling of discomfort surged in his heart.

Tang Xuewei's eyes revealed a provocative smile, and she began to twist her body lightly, stepping into the graceful waltz of her steps—the dance was as soft as flowing water, and every movement was accurate and flexible.

Xiao Yao struggled to keep up.

He slowly began to relax and integrate into the dance, and the steps of the two began to harmonize.

By "starting to coordinate", I mean at least not wrestling, stepping on or being trampled on.

Xiao Yao and Tang Xuewei's bodies staggered and rotated with each other.

I still remember that I also invited the other party to dance together, but the other party refused, and I have long forgotten the reason, I only remember that it is reluctant to be polite and decent - now I come to take the initiative to invite, which can be said to be different from the past.

"If you hadn't gone to school in the Demon Capital," Tang Xuewei put his head on Xiao Yao's ear and whispered softly, "Will you continue to chase me?" ”

Xiao Yao smelled the smell of wine at the corner of the girl's mouth and chuckled.

"The origin and the fate are free, and the affection is not up to others." The boy replied politely and decently: "Some people, once they miss it, are not there; And some people, only if they are missed, exist. ”

"Hmm." Tang Xuewei nodded, and didn't say anything more until he finished dancing this song.

But over there, the curly-haired old Tang invited Little Apple to dance without knowing why, and the latter smiled and shook his head: "I won't dance this kind of dance for two people." ”

"It's okay, I'll teach you." Old Tang patted his chest and said.

"Get out of the way," Xiao Yao walked over and put an elbow on Old Tang's waist: "If you want to teach me, will you teach it yourself?" ”

The curly let out a muffled grunt.

"Xiao Yao," Yu Luying saw Xiao Yao coming, so she grabbed his arm and said, "You teach me to dance "Love in the Dust". ”

"It's a bit difficult to get started." Xiao Yao scratched his head and said.

Having said that, Xiao Yao still put his left hand on Yu Luying's back, clasped her left hand with his right hand, intersected with her ten fingers and lifted it, took her to the corner on the side, and taught her hand in hand (physically).

Xiao Yao's own level is limited, and Yu Luying is learning it for the first time, and it is difficult to get started, but fortunately, she has a little bit of a foundation in folk dance, and her body coordination and comprehension speed are quite good - it was only a moment of kung fu, and Xiao Yao took her to spin in style.

The speed of the two people gradually increased, and Yu Luying made a mistake and stepped on Xiao Yao.

"If you don't let Shen Jie teach you when you go back, she will definitely do it." Xiao Yao suddenly thought of something.

"I just want to learn from you." Yu Luying leaned on Xiao Yao's ear and said—also full of wine.

Then, he was stepped on by Xiao Yao firmly.

At this point, it's finally time for the "group dance" again.

Yu Luying, who was excited again, let go of herself this time, joined the ranks of everyone, and shook her head and raised her hands to twist together, which was very crazy.

And this also set off a new wave of excitement in this wave of small groups.

Fortunately, she was wearing slippers with holes, this thing was relatively heavy, and she was not afraid of flying or stepping on it, Xiao Yao thought.

In the excited atmosphere, Yu Luying completely released herself, shaking her head and twisting her body to the rhythm of the music.

The beat of the drums stirred her body, and the girl's dance steps became agile and unique. She spread her legs and stepped heavily on the ground of the square, Yu Luying's long dress fluttered with her dance, and the light green color bloomed brightly in the dance. The girl's arms rose to the rhythm of the music and gracefully slashed through the air, as if painting a wonderful picture.

There was a glint of happiness in the girl's eyes.

The friends next to her were also infected by Yu Luying's crazy dancing, they joined her rhythm, cooperating with each other's movements, twisting their bodies together, and cheering and screaming together.

Xiao Yao was shocked by the "other side" of Yu Luying, who is usually quiet and ladylike, as if she had witnessed a completely different her.

Then, he thought of Shen Jie, who was dancing on the T-big bridge, and the video that was said to have become popular on the Internet, but he hadn't seen it yet.

In terms of level, Yu Luying and Shen Jie are really incomparable in this regard, but that spirit is three points closer.

The music of the square dance continued to sound, and Yu Luying released herself on the dance floor, she found her own freedom in the dance, threw off the shackles, and became the protagonist of this carnival.

……

At the end of a hearty "group dance", Xiao Yao planned to continue to teach Yu Luying to dance "Fast Three", but the strong rhythm of "Rabbit Dance" sounded on the scene.

Xu Ruiyi ran over and asked Xiao Yao to jump together.

", I'm not dancing with men!"

"Hahaha, it's rare to come back, dance one," Xu Ruiyi also looked a little upset: "Rabbit dance, rabbit dance!" ”

"Jump one, jump one," Tang Xuewei said, "I'll teach her to jump fast, and she can teach her better than you." ”

Xiao Yao clenched his two fists, placed them on his waist, stood on tiptoe slightly, twisted his knees to the rhythm of the "Rabbit Dance" music, and twisted to the center of the square with Xu Ruiyi and Lao Tang.

The process of hi dancing will not be repeated, the three old men danced "Rabbit Dance", and then danced a song "Butterfly".

Xiao Yao was having a good time, when he suddenly felt a smell of smoke in his mouth, and he was choked unexpectedly, and then coughed violently.

"What's wrong, Brother Xiao?" Curly-haired Old Tang asked.

"It's fine."

Xiao Yao said "It's okay" while secretly glancing his eyes in the direction where Yu Luying and the others were.

Sure enough.

By the lake, Tang Xuewei was half-hugging Yu Luying, unable to see the expression on her face, as if she was saying something, and patted Yu Luying on the back.

Yu Luying bowed her waist, pinching a thin and long object in her right hand, coughing violently while spewing out a puff of white smoke from her nose and mouth.

Xiao Yao's blood surged straight up to his brain.

Even if it's an occasional hiatus, there should be a boundary?!

"Hey, Lao Xiao, where are you going?"

Xiao Yao didn't answer Xu Ruiyi and Tang Jiaxin's questions, but just walked towards Tang Xuewei and Yu Luying with a grim face.

He walked up to Yu Luying, snatched the thin and long thing from her hand, and broke it into two parts: "What are you doing?!" ”
