Golden Fishing Village

Lao Ao didn't dare to think too much and continued to ask: "You are a gentleman, right?"

These words made the boat woman very dissatisfied. He stamped his feet and twisted his waist and said: "What man? Why are you so vulgar, the leader? What you say makes people very unhappy..."

"I'm really..." Lao Ao Yi had nothing to say, so he could only wave and say, "Speak well, don't act cute, me, me, me, a grown man like me can't stand this, so I'm asking you, are you a man? ?”

The boatwoman's face showed sadness, she nodded and shook her head.

Lao Ao was confused: "What do you mean? Are you a man? Are you a real second-chair?"

Erzhi is a dialect spoken in many areas in the north, and refers to men and women who do not have certain important organs.

The boatwoman was angry. He frowned, pinched his waist and said, "Why are you insulting people? They say that the village chief of Longtou Village is an upright man, but it turns out he is nothing more than that, just a common man!"

Ao Muyang waved his hands angrily and said, "Why don't you talk properly and stop making all this nonsense? Is he a man?"

The last sentence was asked to Wang Erjun and Wang Erjun.

The two of them didn't speak, and nodded in agreement.

The boatwoman defended herself: "I am physically a man, but I have the heart of a woman and a gentle and beautiful soul."

Ao Muyang sighed and asked: "Then you are a boatwoman voluntarily?"

Wang Erjun stared at him.

There was an expression of struggle on the boatman's face. He bit his red lower lip with his white teeth, looked at the boatman and then at Wang Erjun in embarrassment, and finally sighed softly: "You have to eat."

This answer made the boatman very dissatisfied. He said angrily: "Ah Zhao, please don't be evasive at this time. Give a serious answer. I'm not forcing you!"

He then said to Ao Muyang: "Leader, I really didn't force my brother. I can't help it. You see, we are just amateur performances, not a professional team. I can play the role of the boat master myself, but I can't find anyone to play the role of the boat man." Po. You need to find a beautiful girl to play a boat girl, but how can you find a beautiful girl to eat this meal now? Instead of walking around the streets and sleeping in the open air, you might as well go to a KTV in the city to sell wine. Alas, in today’s society, women are too long. They are so beautiful that they can not only be used as food, but also used as jewelry, jewelry, and currency. How can they be willing to lower themselves to play the role of a boatwoman? "

Ao Muyang asked: "Okay, no need to explain. Do the leaders of the town know about you?"

The boatman suddenly became nervous. He rubbed his hands and said, "Well, you probably know."

Ao Muyang's eyes suddenly became sharp: "Don't fool me, do you know? What do you mean you know roughly?"

The boatman said anxiously: "Don't be angry, leader, we didn't tell the town Ming, but when the town secretary Lu invited us to dinner, Azhao went to the toilet with him..."

"What? Azhao went to the bathroom with other men?" Wang Erjun was anxious, "I've never done that to him. Azhao, how could you do this?"

what is this? Jealous? Ao Muyang's scalp was numb, what a show of true virtue!

He called Lu Zhichao and told him about it. Lu Zhichao knew for sure. He said: "Hey, Xiao Ao, you are an old thinker. Boat lantern lighting is a traditional custom performance. Both men and women can participate. As long as the performance is good, Okay, does it matter what gender the character is? Mei Lanfang has been playing male roles all his life, but he is not an eternal master?"

Ao Muyang was even more speechless. He could only think silently in his heart. In fact, gender is really important. If you don’t believe it, ask the bachelors in the previous villages who took pictures. Look, let them know that the person licking the screen is a big man. Man, how will they react?

But this can only be thought of by himself. This scene was arranged by the town. Since the organizer has no objection, how can he get involved?

The scene of lighting up the boat lanterns went on as usual, and when the villagers saw the boat woman coming forward, they started to curse angrily.

Lao Ao came forward to suppress the riot: "If you don't want to see it, go home. Where is this place? The village committee office! The sacred place to vote for village cadres and organize party members to study! Listen to what nonsense you are saying. Don’t you think it’s embarrassing? Second uncle, please shut up. The old man’s eyes are looking at you. You are a party member. Do you think your performance is worthy of your status?”

From a conscience point of view, Azhao is excellent both in appearance and accent, so he is very qualified to play the role of a boat woman.

But most people just can't get over the hurdle of conscience. Playing boat lanterns is not like Peking Opera. Since ancient times, boat ladies have been played by girls.

To be honest, Ao Muyang felt pity for Azhao. With his appearance and voice, if his family had the conditions to send him to learn Peking Opera or find a platform to support him, he would really have a bright future in today's society.

Unfortunately, his background determines that these options have nothing to do with him.

If we didn't take into account the fact that the boat lady was a man, the boat lantern lighting activity in the first month was quite successful. The team found in the town was very professional.

Continuing their efforts, the town organized another event, the Fishing Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

For many years, the town has organized the Fishing Lantern Festival every fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but it didn’t pay much attention to it before. It just ended with hanging some lanterns and setting off some fireworks in the square in front of the town government.

There is no way, Qiantan Town is a poor town, and previous leaders have no way to increase revenue and can only reduce expenditures, and try their best to reduce public expenses. Otherwise, they will spend too much money at the beginning of the year and have no money at the end of the year.

Now that Lv Zhichao has taken office, he has changed his mindset. He is taking advantage of the tourism trend brought about by Longtou Village to promote Qiantan Town into an online celebrity town, attracting tourists from all over the country to check in.

This will make this year's Fishing Lantern Festival much more popular. The promotion started last year. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a few firecrackers will be set off from time to time in the town to remind the people and tourists not to forget this Fishing Lantern Festival.

In order to make this event more popular, Lv Zhichao also called the village directors and village party secretaries of each village and asked them to mobilize the villagers to form groups to participate in the event.

He said on the phone: "This is not a political task. Everyone, feel free to bring your fellow villagers to participate in this lantern festival. It will definitely be worth the trip. There will be a one-stop service of eating, drinking and having fun. I will be watching the whole process of this lantern festival. It will definitely be fun!"

Ao Muyang trusted him very much, but he could not personally take the villagers to the town. He had to walk through the ten temples in the evening, and Lu Zhizi had to cross ten bridges. This was also a local custom. Young people who had made an engagement had to walk through the ten temples and cross ten bridges on the Lantern Festival of the year of their marriage.

Old Ao didn't know where this custom came from. He asked around, and the most reliable thing Grandma Qianlai told him was: in the past, it was inconvenient to travel by car, and it took a lot of time and effort to walk through the ten temples and cross ten bridges. This action was held to test the newlyweds' piety to each other and to marriage.
