Happy peasant girl

Chapter 59
The auspicious troupe invited by Lin Renyi can only be regarded as a second-rate troupe in Fu'an Town, and the troupe leader Li Jixiang often accepts some wandering artists.

After breakfast, Lin Xiaoyu and Lin Xiaotao came to Lin Qingxi and Lin Cuihua to listen to an opera. At first Lin Qingxi thought that children's "listening to opera" was different from adults, because in modern times, many For children, listening to operas at temple fairs and places means eating and playing.

But she didn't expect that "listening to the opera" here is really "listening to the opera". The children sat neatly next to the adults or at the front of the stage, and then raised their thin, sallow faces, all over their faces. Excited and curiously watching the stage, waiting for the good show to start.

"Sister Xiaoyu, what play are you singing today?" Lin Qingxi sat between Lin Xiaoyu and Lin Xiaotao, surrounded by children.

"My grandpa said that today's 'Sanyimen' is sung, and it's about three brothers of the opposite sex killing bad guys. It's really good!" Lin Xiaoyu asked Grandpa Hao to sing when he heard that the village was going to sing an opera. Grandpa Hao didn't tell her what kind of play it was until last night.

"Oh, I see!" Although Lin Qingxi had never heard "Sanyimen", but from Lin Xiaoyu's point of view, this song should be something with a heroic color.

As soon as the opening gongs and drums sounded, the audience who had been buzzing suddenly fell silent. Actors began to appear on both sides of the simple square platform. They were dressed in red or green clothes, although they were obviously exaggerated and vulgar. But they complement each other.

The high-pitched, resonant and melodious voice shocked Lin Qingxi.In modern times, she has heard national quintessence, local opera, and folk tunes, but the voice of each opera is different from that of the troupe here.

Just now Linyuanshan told her that as far as he knows, all the opera troupes in the state of Chu can only sing one kind of opera, that is the Chu drum opera unique to the state of Chu. This opera is mainly composed of drums, which are divided into small drums , Middle Drum and Big Drum, so Chu Drum Opera is divided into Small Drum Opera, Middle Drum Opera and Big Drum Opera, and most of the folks are small drum operas.

The auspicious troupe is a troupe that specializes in singing small drum operas. Most of the troupes usually operate in the countryside, but in recent years, there are fewer and fewer people singing small drum operas. It is also because the people have no money to invite opera troupes to sing operas, and opera singers can no longer rely on singing to support themselves and their families.

Sanyimen is the most famous play of Xiaogu Opera. Its content is the same as what Lin Xiaoyu told Linqingxi. It tells the story of three brothers with different surnames fighting violence and Anliang. martial arts performance.

Lin Qingxi also watched it with great interest. Although she didn't understand Xiaogu opera very well, the music of Chugu opera was simple and the singing was loud and clear. Soon she also fell in love with this kind of opera.

The Sanyimen play sang for a day, and Lin Qingxi and Lin Xiaoyu also stayed under the stage for a day. Only in the evening did the auspicious troupe leave Linjia Village.

The next day the sky was overcast, as if it was going to rain.Lin Qingxi didn't go to work in the field either, Lin Qinghe and Lin Qingmu took her to play in the cave in Dameishan.

On the Damei Mountain next to Linjia Village, there are several connected natural small caves. Children in Linjia Village usually like to play in these caves.

When the three brothers and sisters from the old Lin family arrived, Lin Qingxi found that Lin Xiaoyu and Lin Xiaotao were also there, as well as Lin Erhu, Lin Xuequan, Lin Yongjie, Lin Dajun, and Lin Xiaobo.

"Brother Erhu!" Lin Qinghe shouted at him as soon as he saw Lin Erhu's figure.

"Qinghe, here, here!" Lin Erhu's strong body stood at the entrance of the cave, and then waved to Lin Qinghe and the others.

When the children from Linjia Village gathered in the cave, they didn't pay much attention. Boys and girls sat together.

"Brother Erhu, is there anything special you asked everyone to come here today?" Lin Xuequan originally planned to follow his father to Fu'an Town today, but Lin Erhu told him that he had something to do today, so he didn't go.

"Yes, Brother Erhu, my mother is still waiting for me to go home to see my younger brother!" Despite his young age, Lin Xiaobo not only does housework at home, but also helps take care of his younger siblings.

Lin Erhu sat in the middle of the group of children, looking like a leader, but he turned his attention to Lin Qinghe: "Qinghe, tell me!"

Lin Qinghe, who was named by Lin Erhu, was not embarrassed, and said directly: "The tofu business in our village is getting worse and worse, and the people in Caojia Village are still bullying us like this. We must find a way. Otherwise, if we have good things in our village in the future, if we don’t like them, they will be stolen by outsiders!”

"Brother Qinghe, we are all children, can these things help?" Lin Xiaobo scratched his head and said in distress.

"What children! We are all grown-ups now! Last night I heard from Uncle Cheng that there is an escort agency in Fu'an Town to accept apprentices. I plan to try it out, and then learn all my skills and come back to protect our village. Are you going?" Lin Er Ever since Hu heard last night that the bodyguard bureau in Fu'an Town was looking for apprentices, his mind became active.

"Brother Erhu, I'll go if you go!" Lin Dajun is Lin Erhu's powerful supporter, and he has long wanted to go out for a break, although he is still a half-grown child in the eyes of adults.

"I'll go too!" Unexpectedly, Lin Qinghe also said that he wanted to go to the Escort.

"Fifth Brother..." Reflexively, Lin Qingxi planned to object, now that the family has no shortage of food and clothing, and her brother is still young, of course she is worried about letting him go out, not to mention that it is a very dangerous escort agency.

She doesn't know how hard it is to walk the darts, but just thinking about the days of eating and sleeping in the open and worrying, Lin Qingxi has a hundred thousand unwillingness in her heart.

"Sister, this time you are going even if you object to me. I have already made a decision, and both grandpa and father have already agreed!" Lin Qinghe knew that Lin Qingxi would object, but he had already asked Lin Qingxi for help. Yuan Shan and Lin Zhongguo agreed, so before Lin Qingxi could say anything, he interrupted her.

"Fifth brother, have you really made up your mind?" Lin Qingxi could see the determination in Lin Qinghe's eyes, but Lin Qinghe was only 11 years old, so going to the Escort at such an age, he would definitely suffer a lot in the future.

"Yes, I must go to the Escort, and I will definitely come back after learning martial arts!" Lin Qinghe said firmly, with a firm attitude.

Lin Qingxi actually wanted to tell him that if Lin Qinghe planned to learn martial arts, both Lin Liu'an and Lin Qixi could teach them, but when she got to the point of her mouth, she thought about it and didn't say it.

Linjia Village is a small place, and if you want a few eagles to fly out of this small place, then you can't trap them here, maybe it's good to go out for a break, not to mention that boys and girls are born different, as long as With wings, they can fly higher and farther.
