Things about village flowers

At less than nine o'clock in the morning on October 1st, Ling Liping rode her bicycle from her home to the Qingdun Commune Party Committee compound more than half an hour in advance to prepare to take a truck with a group of 17 people from the commune performance team to the county to participate in the county's middle school students' art festival. The performance was scheduled to gather at 9:30 and set off at 10. She had the same mentality as me and concluded that I would also participate in the performance, so she couldn’t wait.

"Hi! Pingping (Ling Liping’s nickname)."When setting off, Ling Liping was about to climb onto the bed of the truck when she was stopped by her uncle's cousin who had just opened the driver's door.

"ah?! Cousin, you drive there! Bai Liping exclaimed and came to her cousin's side,"What a coincidence. If I got on the bus from that way, I wouldn't have hit you, hehehe.""She laughed as she spoke. Her cousin was driving in the commune supply and marketing cooperative and was very busy, so they rarely saw each other.

"Haha, what a coincidence!"My cousin laughed, then took Ling Liping's hand and said,"Pingping, come on, sit in the cab. It's comfortable and clean. How can I let you climb into the car when I'm driving?"As he said this, he picked up Liping and went to the right side of the car. He opened the door and without any explanation pushed Liping into the cab to sit down.

Liping was very embarrassed. How could she be qualified to sit in the cab? This is a commune revolution. Deputy Director Xia of the committee (captain of the commune performance team this time) was sitting. So when her cousin closed the door and turned around to walk away, Liping opened the door to get out of the car and wanted to climb into the car again, but happened to meet Deputy Director Cheng coming over. After getting on the bus, before Liping got off the bus, he pushed her in and told her to sit inside. She just happened to sit open, and then got on the bus. Because he was too big, Liping was squeezed inside and pressed against his face. Brother, Director Cheng closed the door twice before reluctantly closing it.

Along the way, Ling Liping frowned. Her delicate body was sandwiched between two big men like a cork. She had to avoid sitting as far forward as possible because of her buttocks. I sat too far forward, not even half of my buttocks sat down, and most of my focus was on my legs and feet. Over time, I felt sore and numb, as if I was being tortured. Also, Deputy Director Cheng took naps all the time, and he was not restless when sleeping. Don't worry, the big-headed melon seeds tended to lean towards Ling Liping at every turn. They kept drooping on her shoulders and used them as pillows. At first, it was a matter of face. Ling Liping could accommodate herself and tolerate it as much as she could, but later on, Deputy Director Cheng became a little unscrupulous. The stench of tobacco oil in his mouth was blown directly at Ling Liping, and from time to time he would drool on her. It was so disgusting that Ling Liping couldn't bear it, so she simply leaned down to avoid it, letting his mind wander. Relying on me, I suddenly realized.

Ling Liping was on the verge of crying but regretted it all the time. Riding in a car like this was simply a pain. If I had known how much more comfortable it would be to stay in the car and laugh and enjoy the scenery with everyone.

Fortunately, Ling Liping did not get car sick. The road from her hometown to the county seat was mostly mountainous, with twists and turns and bumps, and the car couldn't drive fast at all. It took more than an hour and a half to reach the county seat, only about 40 kilometers away. This journey made Ling Liping suffer a lot and will never forget it.

From the time she saw the county seat , From that moment on, Ling Liping and her classmates on the bus were excited, but Deputy Director Cheng continued to sleep, and her snoring was no less loud than everyone's cheers. This was

Ling Liping's second time in the city. The last time she went to the city was ten years ago. Her parents took her around the county town for a long time. She couldn't see enough with her big bright eyes, so she stayed at my house at night. The county town at that time was only in her mind. I only know that the county town is bigger and more lively than my hometown village, and that my house is brighter and brighter than hers, and the food is better than hers.

When I was about to enter the city, I also drove from the western mountainous area. They pulled the trucks of the participating students and followed them one after another, and the three cars drove into the city together. After 11:30, among the three cars, Ling Liping's car was in front, and the other two cars followed closely behind, pulling a group of surprises. The Shanli baby was so excited that she slowly drove into the courtyard of the county party committee guest house, which was composed of several large and small buildings. As soon as the car entered the guest house gate, Ling Liping opened her eyes wide and searched in all directions. She was sure that I would show up to greet her at this moment. I was indeed present, but both of them missed the moment of intersection.

When I rushed from the registration office of the conference, three cars had already driven into the gate of the guest house. Ling Liping's car passed by in front, but I only focused on The student who was standing on the side of the car did not pay attention to the cab at all, and even if he paid attention, he could not see clearly; at the same time, Ling Liping happened to cast her eyes to the other side, ignoring my existence. In this way, we can only pass each other by.

Ling Liping was unwilling to give in. After getting off the car, she filled the guest house and continued to look for me. No, I was discovered quickly.

After eating seafood braised noodles in the big restaurant of the guest house, they went back to their respective teams and returned to the performance team. Coincidentally, our municipal middle school student performance team lives in the same building and on the same floor as Ling Liping's Qingdun Commune performance team, which makes contact more convenient.

After a short break after the meal, at 1:30, the conference organized all participating teams to go to the county theater to familiarize themselves with the performance venue, also known as stepping in, where the performance will be held tomorrow. This theater is as familiar to me as my own hands. I have been here eight hundred times, either to watch plays, movies, acrobatics, meetings, etc., even with my eyes closed. Able to find one's seat.

But for most rural students, it is like walking into a sacred church, strange, noble and mysterious. The few strings of spotlights on the top of the stage can make you dazzled and dizzy.

Ling Liping sneaked up to me at some point, grabbed my hand with one hand, and pointed to the stage with the other, and said,"Brother Sifang, it's my first time to perform in such a high-end place, so I'm a little nervous." At this time, the light in the audience area of ​​the theater was It was relatively dark, almost like a formal performance, with only a few lights on, and everyone was focusing on the environment and facilities of the theater. No one paid attention to us, so I didn't avoid it.

"Hey, no need to be nervous!"I grabbed Ling Liping's hand and said,"Once you are born again, you will become familiar again. You will definitely face a more advanced place than this in the future; besides, you are participating in group programs, and the audience's eyes are not specifically focused on you. Don't be nervous. Be sure to relax and then relax again. Only in this way can you perform well and perform at your actual level. You should regard this place as your experimental field and springboard to the big stage in the future."

"Hee hee hee……"Ling Liping held my arm with both hands and leaned her head on my shoulder, laughing. I patted her arm to comfort and encourage her. She immediately said,"Brother Sifang, you are so optimistic about me! I think I can finish tomorrow's show without stage fright. I will be very happy.""

"Don't be humble! You must be able to act well, perform beyond your level and win awards."I grabbed her hand and said,"It's just a pity that you are applying for group performances this time. It would be better if you could dance solo or sing solo, so that you can attract others, especially the judges or professionals. The attention of people will be of great benefit to your future acting career. Try to become a professional actor as soon as possible."

"Hee hee hee……"Ling Liping smiled and said,"I'm not that ambitious, nor am I that capable."

"That won't work! Must be ambitious."I grabbed her hand with both hands and said,"A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. Don't let your acting talent live up to your literary talents. I believe you can do it."

"Hee hee hee……"She grabbed my hand with her backhand and said with a smile,"Stop talking anymore, Brother Sifang, if you say any more I will float up and I don't know what my last name is.""

"Hehe," I hugged her hand and said jokingly,"If you believe me, there will be bread and milk. Just put it in front of you. As long as you keep moving forward, you will be within reach. Unless you Indifferent, standing still"

"Hahaha……"After she heard about it, she put her head in my arms and laughed non-stop.
