Crazy Farm Chapter 139: Chongyang Festival for the Elderly
The Old Age Palace of Dakang Village is at the entrance of the village, facing the road at the entrance of the village. Due to the economic conditions of Dakang Village, the office of the village committee is also located in the Senior Citizens Palace.
On weekdays, the old age palace is mainly for the activities of the elderly, such as playing cards, mahjong and chess.
Today's old age palace is much more lively than usual, even more lively than when the village sings a big opera every few years.
On the entrance wall of the Palace of the Elderly, some ribbons and some festive things are hung on the wall, and there are even more couplet banners.
Most of the people in the village took leave today and didn't go to work. The gate of the old age palace was crowded, and from time to time someone helped the old man to go inside. The village has not been so festive for a long time. In addition to the elderly, many villagers come here to join in the fun.
Everyone in the village has heard about it. Today, not only did the centenary banquet and red envelopes be given away, but also a very good opera troupe was invited. Therefore, people from the neighboring villages also came to watch the opera.
"Shanzi is coming!"
"Shanzi."
"Come on."
Wang Leshan arrived at the gate of the Old Age Palace, and everyone he saw greeted Wang Leshan with smiles all over his face. Shanzi also responded with a smile and walked in.
"Is this the Wang Leshan?"
"Tsk tsk, so young! I thought it was quite big!"
"Of course I'm young, I'm just 20 years old today, and I'm not old enough to marry a wife. I've heard that there are many people in this Dakang Village and our other villages who want to give it to him. As a matchmaker!"
"I heard that this little doll rented out the wasteland at the foot of the Dakang Mountain for one million yuan by himself. How can he be so rich at such a young age?"
"You probably haven't heard how much the vegetables grown on his farm are sold for. The corn and potatoes are sold for more than ten yuan, but they are more expensive than meat, but there are still people rushing to buy them! Can you make money? ?"
"Yeah, I heard that the income of the village committee of Dakang Village today depends on him alone. Also, he builds this and repairs that on his farm. The people in the village work every day, 150 yuan a day. , sometimes 200, and eat big fish and meat and these sky-high corn potatoes every day.”
"What is this! I heard about the bosses who go to the farm to buy goods. They give loose cigarettes to the people who help out there, and the loose ones are all soft Chinese, and also, packs of loose! Not to mention anything else. , just this smoke. Think about it, tsk tsk tsk..."
"I also heard that this Wang Leshan has a good relationship with the leaders of the town and even the city! It seems that the mayor will come today."
"Do you think this is the appearance of the dragon **** on the Dakang Mountain? If such a young man is born, he will not talk about making money himself, but also thinking about helping the villagers to make money! You said that our village can't be like this. Talent!"
"Talent? Where is this talent? This is the God of Wealth, the God of Wealth! With this God of Wealth, Dakang Village is really going to be released this time!"
…
The villagers of Dakang Village inside and outside the Old Age Palace grinned to the back of their heads as they listened to the words of those who came from neighboring villages to watch the big play. Straighten your back, raise your eyebrows!
For many years, the villagers of Dakang Village have not had this kind of enjoyment!
Wang Leshan walked into the Old Age Palace, and the inside was obviously cleaned up, and even some places were slightly renovated. It has been more than 20 years since the old age palace was built, and there are quite a few couplets in it. Originally, I could not read the characters clearly. Now I have remade some of them, and I can see the characters clearly.
As a child, Wang Leshan always wondered what those blurred words were, but now he can finally see it clearly. Especially the couplet on the front of the stage.
"God is human, ghost is human, human is human, one or two people are ever-changing"
"The chariot is the same as the soldier.
Ten tables have been set up in front of the stage below the stage, some cold dishes have been placed on the tables, and there are already many elderly people sitting beside them.
The seniors invited for the Double Ninth Festival are all over the age of 60. There are about 100 seniors in Dakang Village this year. There are more than 90 people who can go out with the help of their family members, which is just enough to sit at ten tables.
Of course, the chef in charge of this hundred-year-old banquet is Fan Mingwei, and another deputy is Zhu Dandi. When Zhu Dandi heard Wang Leshan's words, he agreed, but when he came, he was even more shocked when he saw Fan Mingwei. The goods from Dandi Restaurant were always delivered by the farm, so Zhu Dandi never saw Fan Mingwei. . Not to mention asking him to be a deputy to a master idol in the industry, even if it is to wash vegetables by hand, he is willing.
In addition to these two people, there are also several restaurant owners in the town. I don't know where I heard the news. They came to stock up early this morning, and then used the excuse that there was nothing today. Dian followed the past to fight Fan Mingwei. This saves a lot of things, and some women will wash the dishes and serve the dishes, and the matter of this hundred-year-old banquet will be settled.
The temporary open-air kitchen is at the side door of the old age palace. Many people who come in and out, from the village or from the neighboring village, recognize the chefs who are working there, and they almost don't drop their jaws.
Brother Zhu Dan and those restaurant owners are all characters in the town. It's enough to invite them to the village's hundred-year-old banquet. I didn't expect these bosses to come here to fight. The chef is someone else.
There are villagers who have heard of Fan Mingwei's name, but they are very enthusiastic and people who don't know each other in neighboring villages give a thumbs up and say that this is a famous chef in the Yangtze River Delta. He originally worked at the Sunshine Hotel in the city. Be a chef. I don't know where I heard it, but I told Fan Mingwei's glorious deeds on the 18th floor of the Sunshine Hotel in a straight-forward manner, what a table of 5888, and it was so vivid that the people in the neighboring villages were speechless. , The more they were frightened and envious, the more the villagers said it!
"The mountain is here."
A group of people came to meet Wang Leshan, including the village head Wang Dabao and several village officials, as well as the mayor Lin Xiaohu, and a few middle-aged people whom Wang Leshan did not know, all of them smilingly greeted people.
"Uncle Dabao, Mayor Lin, hello everyone."
Wang Leshan greeted everyone politely, calling Lin Xiaohu Brother Tiger in private, but on occasions like this, of course, it is better to call the mayor respectfully, and said with a smile, "There is something on the farm, it's late."
"Just right."
Wang Dabao smiled and introduced to Wang Leshan a few people standing beside Lin Xiaohu, a few were the town masters, section chiefs, and a few were the village chiefs of several villages in the town.
Then I talked to Wang Leshan about the activity process before the show, and I still wanted Wang Leshan to speak. After Wang Leshan heard this, he immediately waved his hand to beg for mercy. Seeing this, Wang Dabao didn't want to persevere, so he gave Wang Leshan another "task", which was to give money to the elderly on behalf of the village. Just have to.
After a while, the old people were invited by the villagers or their family members to sit down. Those who came to watch the play in the neighboring villages either sat on the rows of benches behind the ten tables, or stood on both sides. There are already many people in the old age palace, sitting and standing, full to the brim.
The gong and drum troupe on the stage was in place. After a cheerful and festive gong and drum, the village chief Wang Dabao, who had already prepared, took the microphone and walked out from the side of the "General".
"Hello folks!"
Wang Dabao usually shouts through the loudspeakers in the village, but this is the first time he has spoken to so many people on stage. There are so many people from the neighboring villages and the leaders of the town. When I got on stage, I was obviously a little nervous.
However, the leader of Yitong coughed a few words, but calmed down.
After talking on the phone, I was basically thanking all the old people for coming, thanking the villagers from the neighboring villages for coming, and thanking the leaders of the town for coming. Then I talked about the great events and happy events that happened in the village this year, and praised Wang Leshan. , and then I wish the elderly a happy Double Ninth Festival, health and longevity.
"Today, we are very fortunate that the mayor of our Sanhe Town also came to our village. Now, we welcome the mayor of Lin Xiaohu to speak."
Wang Dabao invited Mayor Lin and handed the microphone to him.
Lin Xiaohu took the microphone and said with a smile: "Today is the Double Ninth Festival, the Seniors' Day. I am very happy to be able to come to Dakang Village to participate in this Double Ninth Festival. Respecting and loving the elderly is a virtue of our Chinese nation. Tradition is a major event. As the saying goes, if there is an old man in a family, there is a treasure, and there are so many old people in Dakang Village, that is, there is a treasure mountain! On behalf of the town government and myself, I wish all the old people good health, long life and happiness!”
After speaking, he handed the microphone back to Wang Dabao.
Wang Dabao took the microphone, coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "Originally, the next paragraph, I want to ask Wang Leshan Shanzi, a young talent from our village, to say it, but Shanzi is thin-skinned and embarrassed to come on stage. "
The audience laughed kindly and gave warm applause to Wang Leshan under the stage. Wang Leshan smiled and waved at the big guy~IndoMTL.com~ Wang Dacheng and Hong Ximei who were beside Wang Leshan were all smiles.
Wang Dabao waited for the applause to stop and said, "Then I'll tell Shanzi, all the elderly, eat and drink well! The centenary banquet is open!"
The people who had already prepared from the side door walked in one by one with trays. This is the first dish, rice noodles made from Linggu. Fan Mingwei cooked longevity "noodles" strictly according to the eating habits suitable for the elderly. Named "Longevity Without Borders", one end came in, and the aroma was overflowing immediately.
At this time, Wang Dabao also stepped off the stage, and the gong and drum troupe started beating, and the show started!
Today's first play is called "Man Bed Wat". It is about the 60th birthday of Guo Ziyi, a famous Tang Dynasty general. All seven sons and eight sons-in-law came to pay their respects. Because they were all high-ranking officials in the court, they all had a wat board in their hands to pray for their birthday. When placing the wat board at the head of the bed. Taking advantage of Yu's family's prosperity, wealth and filial piety, it is also very suitable for the occasion.
After the first show, there is still the "original" called "Magu's Birthday", and the "Zhuangyuan Seal" and "Pan Taohui" to be sung in the evening are all related to the birthday.
This time, the troupe was invited to sing for three days. The first day was for auspiciousness, and the next two days would perform some popular songs. (To be continued.)
