Chapter 338 The Village Comes a Troupe (2)

-

After the theater troupe arrived in Meiyu Village early in the morning, they started to build the stage non-stop. The stage was set up on an open space in front of the temple. It is spacious and open and can accommodate about a hundred people.

After a morning of construction, the stage has been built, and the actors will start singing in the evening.

Today, every household in the village had dinner very early. Everyone had dinner early. The men in the family came to the front of the temple with benches on their backs. Those who came early sat at the front and had an excellent viewing position. People who are late can only sit at the back and watch from a distance.

Tonight, the moonlight is sparse and the stars are sparse, and the cool breeze is blowing. Several large lanterns are hung on the stage, and the stage is full of people.

Ru Yi and Qian came to the front of the temple with a long stool, and the good seats in front of them were all occupied, so they had no choice but to silently carry the stool to the back of the crowd.

However, the distance at the back was a bit far from the stage, and there were so many people that it was hard to see clearly. In order to watch the play, some male villagers even stood on the stools, completely blocking their sight.

Ru Yi looked at the scene in front of her, and suddenly didn't know where to put the stool.At this time, a faint shout came from the lively and noisy crowd: "Jinhua, Jinhua, Ruyi, come and sit here!?"

Ru Yi glanced over the crowd, and saw Aunt Wang waving to call them. Qian's lips parted, she glanced at Ru Yi, and said, "Let's go, Ru Yi, let's sit with Aunt Wang."

Ru Yi nodded and followed Qian into the crowd.

Aunt Wang was sitting alone on the bench, surrounded by people. She waved her hand and watched them walking towards her step by step with a smile.

Mrs. Qian made a lot of effort to come to Aunt Wang, she sat down and said, "Sister-in-law Wang, why are you here alone watching the theater today? Where are Brother Liu and your sons? Why didn't they Come?"

Ru Yi sat down next to Mrs. Qian, looked at Aunt Wang, and called out softly, "Aunt Wang."

Aunt Wang smiled and nodded towards Ruyi, and then said with a smile: "Hey, those of my family said that they are tired from work today, so they won't come. I'm the only one who came to see it. Fortunately, I Come early, or you won't even have a good seat."

"Yes!" Qian replied, and his eyes slowly turned to the front of the stage. The stage not far away was covered with lanterns, and the bright candlelight illuminated the stage brightly.

At this time, a short man dressed in black and wearing a mask appeared on the stage. He held a pen and inkstone in his hand, his legs were bent, and he performed a silent scene with the sound of gongs and drums.

She said, "Hey, Mrs. Wang, which play is this tonight?"

Aunt Wang replied: "The foreplay is still the same as "Inviting the Eight Immortals", and the main play seems to be called "The Story of the West Chamber". Hasn't this "The Story of the West Chamber" been sung in our village yet? I heard people who have seen it say it is very beautiful."

"Really? Then I have to take a good look." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Qian stopped talking, and focused all her attention on the stage.

The eyes of the villagers in the audience were fixed on the stage, and they watched the play very seriously.The foreplay "Invite the Eight Immortals" was very short, only about a quarter of an hour. After the foreplay was sung, the curtain fell on the stage. Now it was the intermission time, and it was also time for the actors to hurry up and put on makeup.

Ru Yi felt that sitting here was very boring, so she said to Qian: "Mother, the show hasn't started yet, I'll go for a walk outside first, and I'll watch it when it starts."

Qian replied: "Okay, it's getting dark now, then you should pay attention and don't go too far."
