Chapter 712 The troupe is here (an extra update for Leader Vera)
The two mothers and grandsons made a little noise, and their voices woke up Lin Xiuqing who was sleeping in the room.
Originally, she was sleeping lightly, but Ye Yaodong didn't come back. She waited there all night and didn't sleep. She couldn't stand it any longer, so she fell into a deep sleep.
At this moment, there was some movement outside the house, and she woke up immediately. Looking at the empty space around her, she immediately sat up, quickly got out of bed, put on her coat and went out.
"Grandma, is Adong back?"
The old lady stood at the door and turned around and said, "Yeah, I don't know what he did last night. I just came back and knocked on the door, and I realized that he didn't come back to sleep at night."
"Where is he now? Why hasn't he returned to the house?"
"He took the armchair and stool and went out again. He said he was going to the Mazu Temple to get a good seat for us and then sleep when he came back. This kid was too honest and didn't listen. I told him everything and let his mother
Just move there later, but he won’t listen.”
The old lady said with a distressed look on her face, and then continued: "There is still porridge cooking in this pot, and I can't catch up with him. Forget it, I will be back in a while, it's only a few steps away."
Lin Xiuqing felt relieved when she heard that he had come back and was just carrying a stool to Mazu Temple.
I've been busy all night and don't know what I'm doing. I just came back now.
"It's still early. It's not even five o'clock yet. It's just dawn. You go back and have a nap. When Dongzi comes back, I'll ask him to go in and sleep. I won't give him any more work. This kid is too honest.
, I’ve been tired all night, and I’m still thinking about us going to the theater..."
The old lady muttered as she walked towards the stove. When the porridge in the pot was cooking, it needed to be stirred occasionally to avoid sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Lin Xiuqing also went back to the house and lay down.
When Ye Yaodong went to Thean Hou Temple, there were already many stools or chairs under the stage. He didn't know who was as alert and as smart as him, so he came early to occupy a seat.
"Whose family does this belong to? It's so fast?"
The old man who was looking at the temple said: "The village chief and secretary brought it over last night. If you come here in advance, you can put it with theirs."
"Alright."
It's the middle position anyway.
The old man took out a red rope from his pocket and tied the two stools and chairs together. "It will save you a while at dawn, when the villagers come to occupy their seats and make a lot of noise. They moved yours and can't find them."
"Thank you. I'd like to trouble you to keep an eye on it."
"Originally, I also like to watch temples. It's rare to build a big temple and it's so busy, so of course I have to watch it."
Ye Yaodong watched him bundle several chairs together, then handed them over to him with confidence and went back first.
He was really sleepy. He didn't sleep for more than a day and a night, so it was okay. But his energy had been tense yesterday, and he relaxed only when he got home. He felt a little unable to bear it.
Now if there was a bed for him, he could lie down and sleep immediately.
At home, the old lady was still stirring the porridge in the pot from time to time and muttering a few words.
"How come it's been so long and it's still not cooked? I don't usually cook it for so long... I won't be able to eat it when I get back..."
"How can I sleep if I haven't eaten? I will be hungry... If I had known earlier, I would have gotten up earlier and cooked..."
Ye Yaodong just wanted to catch up on his sleep first, and eating came second.
When he came back, he saw the old lady still cooking. He said hello and planned to go back to the house directly.
"Do you want to wait until you have eaten before going to bed? You should feel better after being bored for a while..."
"No, you can eat it after you wake up." After Ye Yaodong said this, he opened the door and went into the house.
Fortunately, I had already taken a shower yesterday, so I didn’t need to take a shower now. I just took off my outer clothes, put on a tank top and shorts, and climbed into bed.
Lin Xiuqing didn't sleep even while lying on the bed, waiting for him to come back.
"Why didn't you come back until dawn? What were you and dad doing last night? I asked dad last night, but he didn't say anything. He just said you were back and asked me to ask you."
"Hmm, I had something urgent last night. I'll tell you when I wake up."
"Okay, then you go to sleep first, and we'll talk about it when you wake up."
Lin Xiuqing saw that his face was exhausted and his eyes were a little red, so she didn't ask any further questions and just let him have a good sleep.
I haven't slept all night, and I must be exhausted from working outside. It's not bad for a while. With dad here, I must not be doing bad things, but must be doing serious things.
Not even a minute after Ye Yaodong touched the pillow, he immediately started snoring.
Now she didn't have to sleep anymore. After lying down for a while, she couldn't stand the snoring in her ears, so she simply got up.
He doesn't snore normally. He only snores when he is very tired or drinks too much.
She covered him with the quilt, looked at the child sleeping sideways inside, pulled the quilt twice, and then got out of bed. If she felt sleepy at noon, she could just take a nap.
Ye's father on the other side did the same. He knocked on the door as soon as he got home. Ye's mother was sleeping soundly. She was woken up early in the morning. When she got up, she was so angry that she opened the door and scolded her.
Ye's father looked exhausted and didn't care about him. He went directly to the house and fell asleep, ignoring the grunting and cursing in his ears. The snoring was louder than Ye's mother's scolding.
"The old man didn't come back all night, and he didn't know why he was there. As soon as he came back, he fell asleep and became a thief. Both father and son are the same..."
After cursing a few words, she lay down and kicked Father Ye a few times, "Move in a little bit so that no one else can sleep?"
Father Ye grunted vaguely, unable to explain what he was talking about. He pulled the quilt and turned over again.
Mother Ye angrily pulled the quilt over him again, "Don't you want anyone else to cover you? Old man, go out and sleep alone tomorrow..."
The opera is about to begin today. The villagers came together very early in the morning. The first thing they thought of was moving the stools to Thean Hou Temple to reserve seats in advance. They may not be able to see the excitement once in decades, so of course they were enthusiastic.
Early in the morning, not long after Ye Yaodong returned home, there were villagers who got up early and rushed to carry stools. Some even used a cart to pull a cart of stools. Who knows how many people are in the family?
These people probably plan to eat standing up these days.
The village has been noisy and lively since the morning, but the lively atmosphere is only on the road from the village to Mazu Temple, and it can't make any noise at the beach.
Ye Yaodong slept soundly and soundly, and no one came to disturb him.
The children at home carried schoolbags on their backs and did not go to school early in the morning. Instead, they ran to the Mazu Temple to watch the excitement, because the troupe's cart was coming.
The children in the village risked being beaten and ran behind the big car. They bared their teeth and claws in excitement, running and screaming all the way to the Mazu Temple.
Why is going to school more important than watching the excitement?
"The troupe is here, the troupe is here~ What a big car~"
"It's going to be a big show~ It's going to be a big show~"
"It's so lively, our village is going to have a big show~"
"It would be great if I didn't have to go to school. I don't want to go to school. I want to watch a big show!"
"I also want to watch a big show and don't want to go to school!"
"Let's not go to school, right? Let's just watch the fun here..."
"No, there are so many adults here. If my mother says that when I go home, my ass will be spread open."
"I hate it, why do we have to go to school? It's Mazu's birthday, shouldn't we worship her? Why do we still have to go to school? Why do children still have to go to school when adults don't work anymore?"
"That's right, that's right, adults don't work anymore, why do children still have to go to school? It's not fair!"
The adults nearby listened to the children's noisy talk and found it interesting, so they said something funny.
"Then you go to school and talk to the teacher and ask the teacher to give you a holiday!"
"I don't dare..."
"Wouldn't it be great if you asked the teacher to come over to worship Mazu and listen to the big show?" A young man laughed and said with a bad idea.
"It makes sense, let's go, let's invite the teacher to come to our village to watch the show."
"Okay, okay~"
After saying this, all the children lost their nostalgia for a moment and started singing the opera in the afternoon. There is still time now.
The whole group of children ran out in high spirits, preparing to go to school to invite their teachers to come to their village to watch the show.
The teachers also come to their village to watch the play, so there is no need to attend classes~
Perfect~
As soon as the troupe arrived at Thean Hou Temple in the morning, they were welcomed by the villagers. A group of men came forward very actively to help move it. After the move was completed, they stayed there to help and arrange the venue.
The whole Tianhou Temple was full of people coming and going, and everyone was very busy.
These days are the most lively days in the village. The villagers have a tacit understanding not to go out to sea. This rare liveliness cannot be missed, even going to the market cannot compare.
The opera was sung for five consecutive days, and villagers from all over the country would come to their village to watch the show. When they walked out, everyone in the village felt their faces were glowing and proud.
All the cadres of the village committee also came to Thean Hou Temple and watched the villagers help the troupe settle down.
The newly completed Thean Hou Temple is relatively large and is divided into two parts. The inner part is built against the mountain and is located at a relatively high level. You need to climb more than a dozen steps to go up.
Directly opposite the main hall where the statue of Mazu is located, there is a stage built under the main hall. Today's opera is to celebrate the completion of Thean Hou Palace and to sing for Mazu.
Members of the troupe set up mosquito nets on the floor in the walkway beside the main hall of Mazu Temple. In the next few days, they will also sleep directly in Thean Hou Temple.
I was too busy last month. I owe Vera Rich Woman two updates and Eleven Alliance Leader two updates. I will try my best to pay them back this month.
It’s the beginning of the month, please give me a monthly pass, please give me a monthly pass, please give me a monthly pass~
Chapter completed!
