my daughter my hometown

Chapter 159
A group of people from Xinshitang finally rushed to the high-speed rail square, and after getting off the car, they were a little dazed looking at the situation in front of them.

They were ignorant, and Su Wu and others were even more ignorant.

When they greeted the Canglan lion team just now, they thought there were only nine lions.As a result, they didn't finish their words, and more than a dozen different cars rushed up, and one after another, teams carrying lion heads appeared at the door of the store.

Su Wu and the others are at a loss, who will tell them what's going on?

Luo Gan from Xinshitang got out of the car, he frowned and looked around, and quickly understood what happened.

In the morning, Su Hai went to their Xinshitang to invite someone, but Luo Xincheng refused in person.Even this cheater called the other Lions in front of Su Hai, telling them not to accept the job of raising Xingu.

Now Xin Shitang himself saw that something was wrong, he regretted it first and rushed to apologize.Naturally, Luo Gandang had to inform the lion team who was also cheated by his son.

When he notified, he told about the city's plan, and the lions quickly understood what was going on.On the surface they didn't say anything, but secretly they were scolding Luo Xincheng for fucking.

Just scolding and scolding won't help.They had no choice but to follow Xinshitang's example, quickly packed up their equipment and rushed over.

Naturally, these lion teams also have their own good friend lion teams, and they communicate with each other and exchange news.The result became what it is now, the Lions rushed over regardless of whether they were notified or not.

They all hold the same mentality, and if they don't seek to befriend Yangxingu, at least they can't befriend each other.

In case the documents in the city are released, they who have betrayed Yangxin Valley will be the first to lose, and it will not be easy to make up for it at that time.

Su Wu didn't know what the lions were thinking.He silently counted the lion heads.Now let alone nine lions, there are even nine times nine heads.

There were too many lions, and the place was crowded.Su Qing was holding the tea and pitifully didn't know where to send it.

Originally, she thought that such a big pot of tea was more than enough to entertain the Lions.Looking at it now, it was really a thousand miles away.

She couldn't help squinting at Su Hai.

"Heizi, what's going on here? Are you sure you only called one lion team, didn't you call all the lion teams in the city?"

"This, this..."

Su Hai was completely confused.

His bald forehead was covered with sweat, and he subconsciously flipped through the phone call records in his hand, but he couldn't find any clues.

Su Wu and the others were confused, as were the shops in the neighborhood.

A few days ago, they already knew that there would be a new neighbor today, and they were happily waiting for the fruit plate from the new neighbor Baimen in the store.

The longer they waited, the more they felt something was wrong, and they couldn't help but poked their heads out to look around.

Seeing this, they couldn't help but be speechless.

Good guy, there are half a square of lion heads densely packed outside.This is not a small store opening, I am afraid that the opening of the world's top [-] is nothing more than that.

Could it be that the city is holding a lion dance competition?But I didn't receive any news.

The neighbors who came back to their senses looked at me and you, each with serious eyes.I don't know who started it first, they didn't wait for the new neighbor's fruit plate, but decisively took out their own fruit plate.

Su Qing looked at the neighbors all around who came over to congratulate her with smiles, trying not to show a dazed look.

She had visited these neighbors one by one when the store was just being renovated earlier.At that time, they were not the amiable and smiling faces they are now.

"Xiaoqing, Sister Liu first wishes you a prosperous business and a lot of money." The boss who sells boutique women's clothing next door came over with a smile.

"There are so many guests coming to the opening, you can't be too busy. There is a saying that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. They are all neighbors. If you have something to do in the future, remember to say hello to us. Everyone will help if they can."

"That's right. Sister Liu is right." All the neighbors echoed, "If you need help, just tell me, Xiaoqing, and we will definitely help."

Seeing that everyone said that, Su Qing was not polite, she smiled and asked them to help greet the lions all over the place.

Su Wu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief seeing that Su Qing had enough staff.

He stood silently for a while, and was about to call Mo Wenbin, wanting to ask what was going on.

As soon as he turned his head, Su Wu happened to see a big drum not far away, with three golden characters "Xinshitang" written on the drum's waist.

His eyes flashed, and then he stopped the dialing hand thoughtfully.

On the side of Xinshitang, Luo Xincheng looked at Su Wu, who was calm and calm, from a distance, and his teeth were gnashing loudly.

His friend Luo Dong next to him heard the movement and couldn't help being curious, "Chengzi, have you dealt with Su Wu over there before?"

"No." Luo Xincheng glanced at him, and said bitterly: "We live in the city and live in the countryside for bastards. How can we have any chance to deal with each other?"

Luo Dong nodded, he was even more curious.

"Since you haven't dealt with each other before, what kind of grudge is it? You look like you want to swallow him alive?"

Luo Xincheng was silent for a while, and then whispered after a while, "This bastard married my goddess away."

Luo Dong was dumbfounded, "The goddess you are talking about is not the singing Wen Lan?"

He is a lover of entertainment and gossip. In addition, there have been more news about Yangxin Valley and Wenlan on the Internet recently, so he also remembered some true and false rumors.

"Yes, it's Goddess Wen." Luo Xincheng nodded heartbroken.The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, as if he was about to rush over and fight Su Wu desperately.

"I'm so pissed off. With Wenlan's almost perfect appearance and singing voice, if she hadn't wasted a few years of youth marrying this bastard, she would have become a singer by now."

After hearing his words, including Luo Dong, everyone in the surrounding Xinshitang had strange expressions on their faces.

Dare to feel that this guy is eating Su Wu's dry jealousy, so he always finds Yangxingu not pleasing to the eye.Even the door-to-door business of Yangxin Valley was rejected, and Su Hai was mercilessly kicked out.

It turned out that before he kept saying that he was thinking of his cousin, it was just an excuse to cover up.

"Chengzi, calm down." Luo Dong was furious, and he slapped Luo Xincheng hard, "Su Wu is from Yangxingu. Don't say you are a bachelor, even if we go together, we can't beat you." ah."

Luo Xincheng groaned, clutching the back of his head and trembling, couldn't help cursing: "Luo Dong, you're crazy, beat me up?"

"I didn't hit you, Chengzi, you are confused." Luo Dong's eyes were full of surprise, and he spread his hands in a very bachelor way: "If you don't believe me, you can ask everyone."

Everyone felt refreshed and nodded at the same time, "No, Luo Dong has been standing peacefully and never touched you."

"Yes, it's probably too hot, Chengzi, you got dizzy from the sun."

……

Luo Xincheng, who became a tiger of three, scratched the back of his swollen head in doubt, and then regained consciousness.But not long after, he stared at Su Wu in front again, cursing the Three Character Classic in a low voice.

"This guy is hopeless. He must not be allowed to pick vegetables for a while." Luo Dong reminded in a low voice.

"Yes, he must not be allowed to pick vegetables, otherwise who will know what he can do. It's just..."

"It's just that our Xinshitang still has a chance to go out and pick vegetables?"

Who will come out to pick vegetables?
Su Wu is also hesitating about this matter.

At this moment, he has already figured out what happened, which caused the lions from all over the city to rush over to celebrate the opening of his small shop.

Although the reason was a bit dumbfounding, but Uncle Jiu's time was approaching, so Su Wu could ignore anything else, and he had to give the lion head for picking vegetables anyway.

It's just that this is not something that can be decided casually.

Under normal circumstances, no matter what to congratulate, the host will only pre-select one Lions team, and it is almost impossible to see dozens of Lions teams in front of them.

As for the number of dancing lions that the lion team will produce during the congratulations, it is usually determined by the red envelopes.If the money is paid more, there will naturally be more lion dances; if the money is given less, the lion dances will of course be reduced accordingly.

However, because each dancing lion comes from the same lion team, it is clear at a glance who has higher skills or higher status.These lion heads with high skills or high status are usually responsible for the task of picking vegetables or greens.Other lion heads serve as background panels below.

The current situation is a bit special.

Because there are dozens of different lion teams, Su Wu has to be particular about choosing one of them to pick vegetables, which is equivalent to choosing the lion team with the best skills.

"Everyone." Su Wu cleared his throat, and took the microphone sent by Bai Qian, "Although there is a reason for the incident, the visitor is a guest. We at Yangxin Valley thank all the lion teams for their support."

Regardless of the reason, many Lions teams present responded with a bang.For a while, the entire high-speed rail square was bustling with congratulations everywhere, attracting countless onlookers.

After a long while, Su Wu smiled and pressed his hand, motioning for everyone to be quiet.

"Although our Yangxin Valley belongs to Zhenhe City, the roads were blocked before, so we seldom went to the city to communicate with the leaders. Frankly speaking, I, Su Wu, don't know the level of your lion team."

He said: "Now the auspicious time is approaching, and since the place is not big, I won't go into too much trouble and specially choose the lion's head for picking vegetables."

"According to the principle of first come, first served, please come out to order and pick vegetables first. As for the other brother lion teams who want to congratulate, they can stand up. As long as they arrive, our red envelopes are still big."

Although they didn't come here for this reason, all the lions applauded in unison when they heard that there was a red envelope.

Soon the time came, and the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and the Canglan Lions team who arrived first were overjoyed, laughing so hard that their mouths almost cracked.

For them, it was a lucky star hitting their heads.Not to mention the red envelopes in the lettuce.Only one out of a hundred lions is a rare opportunity to show his face.

As long as they quickly pick off the vegetables, the Canglan Lions will be the only word in the eyes of the many onlookers outside.As for the dozens of other Lions teams, no matter how good the equipment and skills are, it will not help.

Will they not be able to pick off vegetables that are [-] meters tall?
Obviously not.

So their Canglan Lions team took a chance to show their face in vain.

Thinking in this way, the Canglan Lions came to the door of the store holding their lion's head softly on their feet like they were stepping on cotton, and lined up in a row.

"The auspicious time is here, the lion awakening will start at dawn." The person in charge of the Canglan Lions team stared at the time closely, signaling Su Wu and the other masters to come forward.

Bai Qian next to her quickly brought over the pen and ink she had prepared.

The three siblings picked up the pen with a smile, and they happened to be standing in front of a lion head.

The head of the lion team sang loudly.

"Left the gold, the golden light is shining, and the wealth is abundant;
Click silver on the right, the silver light is shining, good luck;
There is peace in the middle, auspicious stars are shining brightly, and good luck is on the way..."

The three of Su Wu clasped their hands together as a wish, followed the libretto next to them, and carefully nodded the lion's head.

After finishing the lighting, the person in charge of the lion team said another auspicious word, and then announced that the lions had woken up, and He Ye's performance officially started.

The three lions were lifted up in an instant, and the lion dancer warmed up by warming up with Nanquan on the beat of the drum.Soon a big-headed Buddha came out, holding a sunflower fan and leading the lion into the arena.

Bai Qian is from the north, and this is the first time to see a lion dance up close.She secretly tugged at Su Qing who was cheerful in front of her.

"Sister Qing, I only now know that there is a horn on the lion's head."

Su Qing was slightly taken aback, and said with a smile: "The horn on the lion's head is a symbol of the southern lion, and the northern lion has no horns."

"Southern lion? Northern lion?" Bai Qian was a little confused, she couldn't tell these things apart, "But real lions don't have horns on their heads, right?"

Su Qing nodded.

"Real lions do not have horns, but sometimes dancing lions have horns."

She explained slowly.

"The lion dance is also called the lion dance. In ancient times, it was exclusively for the emperor to appreciate, that is, the imperial dance."

She smiled and continued: "You also know how much the emperors cherished the word imperial use because of the strict hierarchy in the past. Ordinary people can't use the word imperial use casually, even to watch the lion dance."

"If you look at it, it's breaking the law and you'll be beheaded."

"So ruthless, what happened next?" Bai Qian couldn't help being curious.

"Later..." Su Qing paused: "As the saying goes, there is a right policy and there is a countermeasure. The ancients also went to great lengths to watch the lion dance. They thought of a way to avoid the taboo, that is, put an extra horn on the lion's head .When the government asks for trouble, they say it’s a unicorn dance, not a lion dance.”

"Unicorn?" Bai Qian was stunned, "What is this?"

"The unicorn is actually the Nian beast in the legend." Su Qing said: "The Nian beast is afraid of fire and the sound of cannons in the legend. So the lion dance is the same, they have to dance when the firecrackers go off."

"It's a pity..." Bai Qian couldn't help muttering.

This is the urban area, or near the high-speed rail station where people come and go, so firecrackers must not be set off.

The two whispered for a while.

When the gongs and drums sounded, some lions could not sit still.They distanced themselves and danced to the drums one after another.

At first, there were only one or two heads, but later on, there were more and more dances.They were unconvinced with each other, and each of them was vigorously making gestures with the nearby lion team.In the end, the audience danced in unison.

Nearly a hundred lions danced together, and the scene was huge and magnificent.Countless onlookers stared dumbfounded at this rare scene in a century, and when they looked at the small shop in front, they couldn't help but look a little more dignified and curious.

Su Wu saw this scene, and ordered Su Qing and others to book a restaurant with Su Hai again.

For the opening of a small shop, they originally planned to wait for the lion to pick the vegetables before returning to Yangxin Valley, and they didn't plan to hold any banquet.

Now it can be regarded as being pushed to the top.But Su Wu is not so reluctant to give up this little money.

The dance of the lions continued, and the first batch of customers poured into the small shops inside one after another.They looked around curiously, wanting to see what the little shop was selling, and they needed to recruit so many lions to celebrate.

It turned out that all the ordinary vegetables and fruits were displayed in the store, and these people were not interested, and they were all ready to leave.

However, when Wei Hui said loudly that in order to celebrate the opening of the new store, all the ingredients in the store would be given away for free, these people became interested.

They couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw the prices marked on the vegetables.

Black, really dark.

The price of the same water spinach in this small shop is almost twenty times that of the vegetable market.The same goes for other types of vegetables.The most eye-catching thing is that the grass carp on display is directly priced at 10000 a catty.

"Xiaoqing." The owner of the women's clothing store next door called Su Qing, "Is the price of your fish wrong? Ten thousand one catty, gold is not that expensive, right?"

"Sister Liu," Su Qing said calmly and patiently, "I've checked again and again, and all the prices here are correct. Especially for this fish, I originally wanted to write a higher price. Because it is worth the price .”

"Little girl, I don't know if it's worth it or not," said an old man next to him, "It's just a mere grass carp, and it's not a rare fish. No one will take it for granted."

"Give me one." A middle-aged woman with a kind face in the crowd suddenly said, "It's ten thousand and one catty fish. Don't want it for free. I'll take one back and try it."
