A mob of clones

Chapter 11: Eat well, drink well, and get on the road well
Although the funeral arrangements were being discussed, in the end there were only two or three steps left.

So there aren't really many things going on.

The play was performed directly on a stone platform next to the Liang family courtyard. The repertoire was selected by Liang Bo and was called "Liang Crying".

It tells the story of a young man named Liang who accidentally got into trouble while wandering around. When he returned home, he found that his father had been killed. He then became furious and endured the humiliation to avenge his enemies.

Wu Jiaban didn't know this piece before, and it was a bit murderous. It would be okay if it was performed normally in the countryside or in towns, but it is not suitable for singing during the Red and White Events.

Otherwise, according to the taboo, it will either ruin the happy event or scare the souls of the dead.

But Liang Bo insisted on performing with this piece, and repeatedly increased the remuneration and offered to provide the main costumes, so they reluctantly agreed.

It is precisely for this reason that Liang Bo came to pay the deposit more than a month in advance. Part of the reason was to familiarize the Wu family class with opera.

This piece is not too difficult, there are not many lines, and the movements are not difficult, so the performance does not take long.

However, after the scene, Wu He, as the leading actor, was still sweating profusely.

Mainly because the weather is getting hotter, and this costume is really not thin.After some exercise, although Wu He was not tired, he was still covered in sweat.

Of course, in addition to this, Wu He also had a strange feeling. When he sang, he always felt as if there were ropes tied to his body, which made him quite uncomfortable.

However, while he was singing, he also carefully observed his own situation and found nothing unusual. Liang Bo did not make any small movements, but just watched the opera end silently, with tears in his eyes.

If what happened before had not happened, maybe Wu He would have really believed this acting...

However, after observing for a long time, he did not find whether Liang Bo made any small movements, and there was no change in quietly pulsing his pulse. After thinking for a long time, Wu He could only attribute these things to the fact that the costume was a bit small compared to him...

"This piece of shit, take it off after you finish singing."

By this time, the time to see the weather had already reached Shen hour, almost four o'clock in the afternoon...

They had just finished a big performance, and it was obviously unrealistic to ask Wu He and the others to carry the coffin right now.And Liang Bo seemed to have realized this early. Just after everyone finished playing the music, dishes were brought into the yard.

At the same time, Liang Bo also began to greet everyone and began to eat.

It is strange to say that such a large funeral probably cost no less than 30 taels of silver. Even if it were placed in the homes of those landlords, it would be quite a lot of money.

It is really strange that the only people Liang Bo invited to attend the funeral were a theater troupe from his Wu family, who were neither relatives nor friends.

However, Liang Bo excused this on the grounds that Liang Xin had been alone since his mother-in-law died. Apart from a son like Liang Bo, he had no other relatives as an excuse.

And everyone in the Wu family class is not allowed to talk about other people's family affairs, so they can only stay silent...

……

"Everyone, it's good to eat and drink well! After eating and drinking, you will feel strong, so we can hit the road..."

"Grandpa! Second uncle! Second aunt, Ahe, look, braised pork!! Braised pork!!" x2
Staring at the plate that was served, Wu Yan and Wu Yu's eyes suddenly widened.

In the past, their meals had always been light and watery. How had they ever seen so many good dishes?Even if Wu He brings some birds and fish home every three days...

But those are basically just things with little oil and water, except during festivals when flax has so much oil and water.

Almost instantly, Erxiao left behind the psychological shadow of seeing Liang Bo before.

As soon as a plate of greasy braised pork was served, the two of them eagerly stretched out their chopsticks to get a piece first.But before the two of them could complete their actions, a pair of chopsticks hit the person's hand ahead of them.

"Look at how you are eating like hungry ghosts! Eat slowly. Those who don't know better think that our old Wu family is uneducated!"

The person who spoke was naturally Wu Shen, the head of the old Wu family.

He looked at his family, especially the two boys Wu Yan and Wu Yu, angrily, and showed an apologetic smile to Liang Bo.

In response, Liang Bo, as the host, waved his hand and said proudly:

"It doesn't matter. You can eat as much as you like. If you don't eat and drink well, how will you have the strength to go on the road?"

Although Wu Sheng felt that there was something wrong with what he said, and it seemed a bit unlucky, but he was soft-spoken and short-handed, and Liang Bo was a young man after all, so he probably didn't care much about this, so the old man just smashed it. He didn't even say anything...

After responding to Wu Sheng's words, Liang Bo took out another bowl of roast chicken, placed it directly in front of Wu He, and said:

"Little brother, you should eat quickly. You acted really well in the opera just now. As the leading actor, you should eat more, right?"

In response, Wu He showed an awkward yet polite smile.However, he did not take the chicken leg from the opponent's hand. He stretched out his hand and tore off a piece of meat. After seeing Liang Bo start to eat the chicken leg, he breathed a sigh of relief and stuffed the meat into his mouth...

Wu He was very careful and only ate the dishes that Liang Bo had eaten.While eating, Wu He also recalled the scene when he met the other party in the past.

Three years ago, Liang Bo was still a sunny and cheerful boy, although his face was gloomy when they first met, as if his girlfriend had died.

However, according to Liang Bo’s own complaints at that time, he was a young man who had just grown up, selling sesame seeds here all day long, and he was not discouraged by anyone...

Wu He even gave him 360 lines as a gift at the beginning, saying that he would be the number one scholar in every line.It ignited his self-confidence. At that time, he looked so arrogant to everyone. I don’t know what happened in the past three years to turn a sunny and cheerful man into the gloomy and hypocritical person he is now. appearance……

However, it should be said that Liang Bo is indeed Liang Xin's son. He must look like him. When he handed Wu He the roasted chicken just now, Wu He inexplicably remembered that when he first saw Liang Xin, the other party looked at him as just a child. A 12-year-old boy gave me an extra portion of sesame seed cakes.

"It's so similar, but so different..."

It seems to mean that Liang Bo gradually becomes like his father when he grows up. It does not mean that Liang Bo gradually loses his appearance when he grows up...

However, Wu He suddenly felt relieved when he thought about how in his previous life, the big dyeing vat of society, which was talked about by various netizens on the Internet, turned people into things that he didn't even recognize.

As for Wu He's psychological reactions, it was obviously impossible for Liang Bo to know.

He looked at the Wu family class eating and drinking, and the smile in Liang Bo's eyes became even stronger.All kinds of big fish and meat were kept being pushed outward by him, with that generous attitude, as if he wanted to make each of the eight of them gain three pounds.

If it weren't for the salesman who could be seen coming and going outside the door, which was similar to the delivery boy who appeared in the ancient Song Dynasty, Wu He and others would have doubted whether they had entered the Peach Blossom Spring...

After eating and drinking for a while, the eight of them were all satisfied with their food, and they felt like they had endless energy all over their bodies.

By this time, the sky was already approaching unitary hour, which was around five o'clock modern time.

After stopping for a while, the sun sets and the town gate closes, making it impossible to get out.

In order to save time and not allow everyone to digest the food in their stomachs, Liang Bo quickly called on everyone to carry it, and then slowly walked out of the town in the face of the gradually setting sun.
