Chatting about sweet potato vermicelli in Wangpo Township.
The old Ma family sisters also grew up in the countryside, their hometown is not far from Wangpo Township, Majiapo.
“To say this sweet potato vermicelli or Wangpo Township do authentic, high elasticity chewy, eat fragrant, how to cook can not be rotten.”
“That’s right, those hot and sour noodles in our city are all made of cheap stuff.”
“Our parents are still in the time, the family is not also made every year, other families to do vermicelli have to go around looking for outside help, our family has more people from their own family to do the thing.”
“The only photo our father left behind was taken on the grain field where the vermicelli was drying.”
Sweet potato vermicelli immediately evoked the memories of the crowd, the crowd chatted, thought of the death of more than thirty years old father, the atmosphere became a little sad.
Wu Jun’s grandpa is called Ma Bangde, an honest and ordinary old man in the countryside.
“If our father and mother are still there now, let them also enjoy the blessings, the old couple worked all their lives, who did not enjoy the blessings.”Ma Dongmei felt, wiped the corners of her eyes with her fingers, her voice a little choked.
Aunt Ma Chunmei also followed the tears: “Yes, our parents will be very happy to see our brothers and sisters like this.”
Dong Li Zhu comforted the crowd, “Big sister and third sister, maybe our parents are watching our siblings from heaven, blessing us.”
“I’d say so, our family has had good weather in the past two years, so it must be our parents’ spirit in heaven.”Second Aunt Ma Qiumei wiped her eyes with a small handkerchief and agreed.
“Okay, okay, let’s not talk about this, look forward, life has to look forward!”
Qianna saw that the atmosphere was a bit dull, began to liven up the atmosphere: “Today we all get together to be happy, eat and drink enough for a while don’t go, the youth group give me karaoke to go! Older group’s bring their children to sweat steam, my treat!”
“This can be, no one is allowed to run in a while!”Wu Jun took the lead and coaxed in response to Qian Na’s arrangement.
Bian Xuedao also smilingly followed the coaxing and said, “It’s a deal, whoever wants to go first, who’s going to pay for this meal tonight!”
Chen Meng held up her small arms in protest, “Auntie Nana, I want to join your youth group, I want to go sing karaoke, don’t go to sweat steam with grandparents! I’m an adult.”
Qian Na looked at Chen Meng and said with a doting smile, “OK, OK, OK, you’re an adult, when we go there in a while you’ll be the one to sing for everyone first, so that you can warm up the scene.”
“YES, I can do it!”Chen Meng clenched his fists and happily jumped up from the ground.
“You bunch of crazies, don’t drag me along if you want to go crazy, I’m not going to go crazy with you.”Ma Dongmei blankly glanced at her son who was “instigating the atmosphere” at the side, but the corner of her mouth was hung with a smile.
Her son is now a multi-billionaire super-rich man, in front of his siblings, he can still keep his heart unchanged, never put on airs, which makes her as a mother very gratified.
At 9:30pm, the crowd packed up their own things and went downstairs.
According to Qianna’s arrangement, the crowd split into two groups at the entrance of the Stone Gate Inn.
The older group’s took a few children to the steam, and Chen Meng ended up being taken away by her grandparents.
Later in the KTV will inevitably have to smoke and drink, small children are not suitable for that kind of occasion.
The final line is, Bian Xuedao couple, Chen Xingyang couple, Ma Chaoyun Dong Lizhu couple, and Wu Jun.
Wu Jun looked at other people in pairs, on their own a single dog, suddenly feel strange!
The manager on duty at Stone Gate Inn had already found a chauffeur in advance.
The four cars set off from the Stone Gate Inn, the destination – Wen Na Pure K.
This KTV was selected by Qianna, before she went to MBA she would ask a few girlfriends to sing K every now and then.
According to her, this KTV is considered a better ktv in the entire Shimen City.
Lighting and sound effects are very good, there is a singing platform, there is a stand-up microphone, the whole feeling is like a concert.
The lighting of the box is also very cool, have been to a few times after completely fall in love with this place.
To the destination, as Qian Na said, this KTV decoration style, as well as lighting into the effect does give people a high feeling.
Seven people asked for a large box.
Qianna has never been a stingy person, especially when it comes to treating her own people, it’s even more generous.
Fruit plate beer is like no money, ordered a big table full.
Finally also did not forget to give Wu Jun asked for the most expensive cigarettes in this KTV, Liqun’s Fuchun Mountain Residence.
It is said that this cigarette has been discontinued and rarely seen on the market.
“Jun, if your sister treats me half as well as she treats you, no, I’m too greedy, I’ll be satisfied with a quarter as good!”Bian Xuedao pulled Wu Jun’s hand, aggravated to the point of crying.
He didn’t even have the right to smoke at home, Qianna even never bought him cigarettes.
Changed Wu Jun, good guy, directly on more than 20,000 a cigarette!
Cousin to this extent, absolutely is the only one in the world!
“Old side do not cry, give you a packet of pocket since the individual private secretly smoke it.”Wu Jun didn’t be polite with his cousin, after unpacking, he pulled out a box from inside and handed it to Lao Bian.
“You are my brother!”Lao Bian “with tears” took the cigarettes in Wu Jun’s hand, very nimbly stuffed into his trouser pocket.
“You two almost got it ah, in the performance continue can go to the Hengdian follow the aunt to mix food!”Qianna, who was ordering songs at the jukebox, looked up at the two and joked, her voice spreading through the microphone into the box.
The crowd was amused by Qian Na’s words, and the scene began to warm up.
Ma Chaoyun was also very nonchalant and reached out to Wu Jun, “Xiao Jun, you can’t be biased, give me a packet as well, I haven’t smoked such good cigarettes either.”
“Give you two packs.”Wu Jun smiled and threw two packets to Ma Chaoyun.
“This uncle of yours, why are you like a child.”Dong Li Zhu shook her head and laughed at the side, speechless at her own husband and nephew for a while.
“Cousin, you take it too.”Wu Jun tossed another two packets to Chen Xingyang who was mostly just smiling nervously and silently listening to the crowd.
“Hey, thank you cousin.”Chen Xing Yang also took the cigarettes and thanked Wu Jun with a naive smile on his face.
“Jun, you’re not being generous! How come both brother-in-law and cousin have two packs and I only have one pack!”Old Side touched the packet of cigarettes in his pocket and yelled and started to protest.
Wu Jun looked at Lao Bian, and said with a reasonable face, “Lao Bian, smoking is harmful to health, it’s not bad to smoke less. I am concerned about you, why can’t you understand my painstaking efforts.”
“I believe in your evil! I thank you!”Lao Bian cried and laughed for a while after hearing Wu Jun’s explanation.
This side had just finished dividing the spoils when the musical accompaniment and Qian Na’s opening remarks slowly resounded in the box:
“I’ll warm up everyone first, a song of initial dream for you, I hope everyone can find their initial dream and persistently move forward towards their dream!”
“Good! Go wife!”Bian Xuedao led the applause, his face full of smiles.
Although he was often “bullied” by Qianna, he enjoyed it, and whenever his wife needed support, he was always the first to step forward and support her.
When Wu Jun asked Qianna to study for an MBA, he was also the first to support her.
Because of the academic problems, the couple who had been living together almost night and day for seven or eight years were trying to separate from each other for the first time.
Lao Bian applauded vigorously, clapping his palms red, with only Qianna standing in front of Li Mai in his gaze.
Qianna’s clear and soulful voice rang out.
At this moment, there was no arrogance in her gaze in the past, gentle as water, and there was only one person.
Qian Na had a gentle face and sang the first line with a smile on her face:
“If pride hasn’t been coldly slapped down by the sea of reality.
How would I know how hard I have to work.
I’ll be able to go far away.”
Having graduated seven or eight years ago and having been in society for seven or eight years, Qianna agreed to do an MBA, which was a big challenge for her.
But she knew that she had to challenge herself.
Otherwise she would hold her cousin back in the future.
During the MBA period, obviously there were not many classes per week, and Kyoto was not that far from Shimen, so it did not take long to travel back and forth.
However, in order to study, in order to learn better, remember more firmly, apply more flexible, and be able to learn to use.
Qianna took the initiative to give up and his favourite person towards the twilight, choose to stay in Kyoto alone to concentrate on studies.
Because she knows that only hard work can go far.
It was no wonder that she used this song as the opening song of the night.
The first line of this song sang her heart out.
This kind of singing voice that brought in emotions made her, a non-professional, sing with a few hints of a professional.
It gave her singing voice a penetrating power that pierced through the heart.
Qian Na continued to sing gently, “If a dream doesn’t fall off a cliff in the nick of time
How can we know that those who are persistent
Have invisible wings
Plant your tears in your heart
Will blossom into brave flowers
In times of fatigue
Close your eyes and smell a fragrance
Like a good night’s sleep till morning
You can walk and hum a song
At a brisk pace
When I’m down, I feel the weight of loneliness.
I long for the warmth of someone who knows how to lend a shoulder.
I’m glad that along the way
Our understanding is so long
Through the wind and round the bend
Our hearts are still connected as usual.”
When Qian Na sang here, the old side of a big man wow hugged Wu Jun and cried a lot.
This song is more like a love song that Qian Na sang to him after a goodbye reunion.
Wu Jun look at the old side in his arms, and then look at the same tears flying cousin on the stage, a burst of speechless……
This kind of large-scale dog abuse scene, is it interesting!
Qian Na’s song continues:
The initial dream is held tightly in the hand.
The place I want to go the most
How can we turn back halfway?
The original dream will definitely arrive
Only when I’ve realised my true desire
Only then can we say we’ve been to paradise
……
“It sounds good, it sounds good, it sounds too good!”Old Bian’s cries also continued, and he was relying on Wu Jun’s arms not to get up.
Wu Jun patted Bian Xuedao’s shoulder and said breathlessly, “Old Bian what’s the matter with you hugging me, isn’t your daughter-in-law just somewhere ……”
“Jun, you don’t know how hard Nana is trying.”
Lao Bian let go of Wu Jun and whimpered, “After graduating for so many years, the knowledge learnt in the university has long been returned to the teacher.
In order to better absorb the knowledge taught and not fall behind in her progress, she learnt every night at one or two o’clock.
Wake up at five o’clock in the morning to start reading in the morning, reviewing English to sprint for the sixth grade.”
It was also the first time that Wu Jun heard something about his cousin Qian Na during her MBA studies.
He had only paid out money and found connections to send people in at first.
He only went to a phone call occasionally to ask about the life and study things.
Qian Na naturally only reported the good news and not the bad, in order not to let Wu Jun worry, what difficulties she had, she carried them down silently by herself.
Wu Jun turned to look at his cousin who was still smiling and singing, and secretly promised: there will always be rewards for effort, and a hard-working person will eventually have achievements that are worthy of her efforts.
Although this is difficult to achieve in most people, but not including cousin Qian Na.
Dong Lizhu and Duan Xiangyan often call or WeChat contact with Qianna, coupled with each other and are women, or the closest relatives, almost nothing to say.
The two heard Qian Na through the song to convey the voice of the heart, the same touched, and constantly applauded.
After Qian Na finished her song, her make-up was already blurred from crying, like a little flower cat.
Dong Li Zhu and Duan Xiang Yan got up and went forward, one on each side to hold Qian Na tightly.
“Cheer up Nana, aunt and uncle know you can do it.”
“Cheer up Nana, you don’t just have Lao Bian, there’s also us, we are also your strongest backing.”
Qian Na smiled and said, “Thank you Auntie, thank you cousin-in-law, I have no problem.”
Lao Bian also got up and walked over to Qian Na, looking at her with a soft face.
Without waiting for him to open his mouth, Qian Na spoke first, “Lao Bian, I’ve worked hard for you during my absence.”
After finishing her sentence, Qian Na took the initiative to go forward and wrap her arms around Lao Bian’s neck, giving him a light kiss.
“Worth it!”Lao Bian touched his face where his wife had kissed him and smiled like a big fool.
Wu Jun looked at the two people who were already an old married couple still this mushy, on his mouth he joked about the two people, but in his heart he was blessing the two people to grow old together.
“Sour you to death!”Lao Bian mocked Wu Jun one sentence while talking to Qian Na, “Daughter-in-law, order me a song of Shin Lei Orchestra’s Love Even When You’re Dead, I want to challenge the tenor!”
“Stop stop stop!”
“Old Bian you calm down!”
“Nana quickly stop your old side!”
After Lao Bian finished his sentence, the crowd dissuaded him!
Listening to others sing cost money, listening to Lao Bian sing cost lives, especially this kind of song with soaring high notes, it was killing them!
In a burst of cheeky banter, Lala OK has been OK until eleven o’clock in the evening.
Singing, drinking and chatting to their heart’s content, without a care in the world.
This night, all the people are singing high, drink too much.
Lao Bian finally sang his song, “Love even after death”.
Not waiting for him to finish a song, only he and Qianna left in the private room, others were his “amazing world weeping God” singing sung away.
The next morning.
When Wu Jun opened his eyes, he found himself sleeping in a hotel bed.
He lifted the quilt from the bed and sat up, reaching for the mobile phone that was charging on the bedside.
After unlocking and opening the screen, Wu Jun saw two missed calls from his brother-in-law on it.
The first one was from half an hour ago, which was exactly eight o’clock in the morning.
The latter one was called ten minutes ago.
Just when Wu Jun was wondering what his brother-in-law was looking for him so early in the morning, his call came in again.
