Qiong Yin lingers

Chapter 16
Looking up, Huang Simi realized that there was a woman standing beside Wang Yunfei: tall, with white skin, three-dimensional features, willow eyebrows and almond eyes, she was a beauty.

When she looked at Lin Zirou, Lin Zirou was also looking at her: she is not tall but has good lines, thick eyebrows, slightly sunken eye sockets, with low mountain roots, the whole face has the charm of ethnic minorities, and it is rare to have Hong Kong and Taiwan fashion sense.Two words, beautiful!
Especially when Huang Simei was speaking, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and there was a sense of affinity flowing from her body, which was as warm as a mother, and people couldn't help but want to get close to her.

After Wang Yunfei introduced her to his wife, he picked up the snakeskin bag in his hand: "This is the cassava and sweet potato that brother Nian asked me to bring back for you. He said you like this. Also, don't throw away the plastic bag inside. Oh! That's the result of brother Nian's six months of hard work, he specifically told me to tell you, buy whatever you want, don't let yourself be wronged!"

Huang Simei's eyes crooked with a smile on her face, and her heart was warm: "He always says that, but I look like a foodie! Oh, look at me, I'm busy talking, please come in, both of you! Hurry up! Today just happens to be our teahouse There are new excerpts on the play, you also help to comment and comment!"

After the two sat in the front row, Lin Zirou looked at the table and chairs in front of him, his eyes turned into copper bells: "This...is rosewood! It's the best island huanghuali material!"

Wang Yunfei didn't know why: "Pearwood?"

Lin Zirou looked around, and lowered his voice to his ears: "The island's huanghuali material is now nearly a thousand yuan a catty! I took a rough look, and not only the furniture in this teahouse is full of huanghuali material, even the furniture used in this house is made of huanghuali. , all of them are huanghuali. Didn’t you say that the Dongfangqiong Troupe is very poor?”

Wang Yunfei: ...

Although, but, he also has blindness to huanghuali.

Quietly calling Huang Simei over, Lin Zirou gave her an introduction of huanghuali wood: "I've estimated that the whole house is worth hundreds of thousands!"

Huang Simi couldn't close her mouth for a long time: "This huanghuali is really so valuable?"

That's it!

No wonder Mondodon is so persistent: since he was kicked out by Meng Huaxiang for the first time, he has visited many times, in the name of helping the Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe through the difficulties. From the beginning, he wanted to buy the entire Qiong Opera Troupe. He wanted to buy the wooden attic, and later, he said to buy some furniture to sponsor the troupe... As a result, of course, he was kicked out by Meng Huaxiang.

Seeing her expression of disbelief, Lin Zirou nodded thoughtfully: "Well, when we go back to the provincial government, first bring some gadgets for you to show to the experts, if they are true, we are not in a hurry to sell them! Because Hainan huanghuali is very rare and has a very long growth cycle, the beams on the roof can’t grow for a hundred years! And if you look closely at these tables and chairs, you will know...Oh my god, this table is still full There are grimace patterns! You, you, you, you are rich!"

The pattern of huanghuali is beautiful, the color is soft and fragrant, and the dark and light colors are easy to mix and are more suitable for inlays.

The ghost face pattern is that in the humid environment of Hainan, huanghuali grows slowly, and it takes hundreds of years to grow into a heartwood with a thick bowl mouth. When it grows in a harsh environment, scarring will appear. Its pattern is more beautiful, and it is called grimace pattern.

Therefore, the grimace pattern is more precious than other patterns.The price is naturally astonishingly high!

Huang Simi was stunned for a long time when she heard this, and then said: "We really don't know how to be blessed when we are blessed! However, Ruan Azu said that no matter how poor we are, we will not sell houses, tables and chairs. This is also my mother-in-law's insistence. Of course , in their eyes, huanghuali is just wood, and they are not allowed to sell because they have a future at home!"

Seeing her cute look, Wang Yunfei and Lin Zirou suddenly relaxed their nervous nerves: Yes!For them, this is wood!

Isn't huanghuali a kind of wood? !
The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, suddenly enlightened.

Wang Yunfei clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Sister-in-law is right! No matter how poor you are, you can't sell the house! Come on, let's drink tea, eat cakes, and listen to a play!"

Huang Simi smiled with eyebrows and eyes crooked, and leaned into Lin Zirou's ear: "I'll let my mother-in-law sell it when I need it in the future!"

Although the bank owed a huge amount of money now, neither she nor Zhang Shennian dared to touch her mother-in-law's nilin, of course it was something left by their ancestors, Huang Simi also thought about it, and kept it in mind.

At least for now, it is not yet the stage of selling houses and beams.

However, the information brought by Lin Zirou gave Huang Simi a new thinking - the vision and pattern of people still need to go out and see more, so as to become bigger.

With a thought, Huang Simi thought, if Qiong Opera wants to develop, it is better to watch more!Otherwise, you will become a frog watching the sky from a well, and it is difficult to keep up with this ever-changing era.

While the two were biting their ears, the snacks from the Oriental Tea House were served one after another.

Wang Yunfei cleared his throat, imitated the tone of the triangle nail master before, and introduced oriental special snacks to his wife.

"Qiongxi zongzi, the zongzi leaves are made of 簏lù糒bèi - pandanus leaves, supplemented with local pig pork belly and new glutinous rice, the fragrance is not greasy!"

"Oriental Job's tears bua, glutinous rice skin, shredded coconut white sugar, peanut sesame brown sugar filling, the taste is amazing!"

"Fried bag, brown sugar heart, white glutinous rice and sesame skin, deep-fried until the whole body is golden, soft and fragrant, delicious and delicious!"

"The seafood noodle soup is full of freshness, the rice noodles melt in your mouth, and the aroma of oil and garlic melts into the clear soup. Once you eat it, you will never forget it!"

……

When Huang Simei delivered the roast suckling pig, Wang Yunfei was dumbfounded: he doesn't know how to do this question.

Huang Simei put out the dipping dish and sugar dish, covered her mouth and smiled to introduce them.

"Our Erxian Village is located in Dongfang County, the westernmost part of the island. The roast suckling pig in Sigeng Town in the East has a history of more than 300 years. It is also a four-shift suckling pig that grows according to its age. The pig is small in body, thin in bone, thin in skin and lean in meat. It is marinated with special spices and then charcoal grilled until golden on both sides. The finished product is crispy in skin, tender in meat, crisp in bone and crisp in taste. Fragrant but not greasy."

Lin Zirou tasted the dipping version first. The pork skin was crispy in the mouth, and the unique fragrance filled the mouth. It was so delicious that it made people want to scream.

After tasting the salty mouth, Lin Zirou dubiously tried dipping it in white sugar. The sweetness in the mouth combined with the crunchy aroma of the suckling pig had an indescribable taste, sweet but not greasy, and the mouthfeel lingered.

Lin Zirou squinted her eyes in enjoyment, one piece after another, unknowingly ate half of the pot.

Wang Yunfei nodded again and again: "As profound as I am, I can't find any adjectives to praise it!"

Huang Simei changed into Li Jin costumes, hurriedly gave them a new snack: "This is a shrimp cake that every family can make, with green onion flour as the base, add a few dried shrimps before putting into the oil pan, and fry until When the corners are slightly yellowed, it can be out of the pot, you should try it too!"

Wang Yunfei and Lin Zirou fought again, their mouths were full of oil, and they kept shouting.

*
Huang Simimei made her debut, and when she spoke up, Lin Zirou's heart skipped a beat.

"Shocking waves shoot the island, Russia is full of loyalty and loyalty!"

The voice is clear, high-pitched and passionate, full of power.

This is Huang Simei's excerpt "Red Flag Fluttering" adapted from Zhang Lujin's fight against devils.

The story tells the history of Ruxian Village’s resistance against Japan during the Qiongya Revolution. It eulogizes Zhang Lujin, the sharpshooter of the Qiongya Squad, who fought bravely against the enemy and cared about his family and country, and presents the family and country feelings and national integrity of Zhang Lujin and the villagers of Erxian Village.

Lin Zirou was completely immersed in the storyline of "Red Flag Fluttering". When the curtain slowly fell, she had already shed tears on her clothes. Together with the tea guests, she couldn't help standing up, applauding, cheering, and applauding!
"Okay! Hit the Japanese devils! Give me back my beautiful home!"

"The heroic soul of the island is here, and the spirit of the Russian Yin is long!"

"Don't be afraid of the wind and waves rolling in, swear to protect the river and mountain with your body!"

……

The applause was thunderous and lasted for a long time.

Huang Simei took the actors and orchestra of Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe to the curtain call again. The tears on her face were not dry, but she was full of pride and pride: "We in Erxian Village are not afraid of strong enemies and hardships! There was Qiongya Erxian in the past. The village team fought against Japan bravely, and today there are Russian villagers who are diligent in farming and farming! We have to rely on our own hands to find our own foothold in the market economy!"

There were warm cheers from the audience again.

Lin Zirou, who was still deeply moved, burst out laughing: "I see, my sister-in-law is quite good at brainwashing, much better than Brother Nian!"

Wang Yunfei gave a thumbs up: "That's not true! Look at the brand new big tile building behind the teahouse. It was built by my sister-in-law for the purpose of building a kindergarten and a dyeing room. The brocade business was also initiated by my sister-in-law... Don't say anything else , the ability to adapt a repertoire has far exceeded the ability of a Qiong opera actor."

Lin Zirou's heart moved, and she got up excitedly: "No, I also want to learn Qiongju opera! Look at the tall and straight sister-in-law! This beautiful face! This slender figure..."

Wang Yunfei remained silent, looked down at his increasingly round belly, and suddenly felt a little bit of a sense of crisis, otherwise, he would also learn to sing a Qiong opera?

The husband and wife pulled Huang Simimei and had to ask her to accept her as an apprentice, which made people laugh and cry: "Qingong Opera pays attention to children's skills. If you want to join the troupe, you must be unqualified. But, to be a fancier, I will teach you how to sing. No problem at all! When you go to Haikou to sing more, it can be regarded as a promotion for our Qiong Opera!"

Lin Zirou laughed so hard that she had two rows of white teeth: "Sister Mei, you are so right! Nowadays, the spring breeze of reform is running everywhere, and you need to drink to know how to drink! I have been on the island for so many years, and it was the first time that Qiongju touched my soul. This shows that the promotion of our Qiongju opera still needs to be strengthened, but the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys!"

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

After Huang Simi was stunned for a moment, a bold idea flashed into her mind: "It seems that our Dongfang Qiong Opera Troupe should go out more, not only in Shiliba Township and Erxian Village, but also in Dongfang City and the provincial capital!"

Lin Zirou rolled up her sleeves: "Then I've made a deal! When I go to the provincial government, I have to arrange a maid's singing for me no matter what!"

Huang Simi blurted out and responded: "Okay! At that time, I will personally write the libretto for you, and write a memorable and easy-to-sing part of the journey." Wang Yunfei always felt that something was wrong when he saw the scene of the two embracing and stamping their feet tightly, but he dare not say.

……

In order to let Wang Yunfei and Lin Zirou understand the teahouse Qiongju opera excerpt culture, Huang Simei took them around the whole village in the next two days.

When they went to Erxian Mountain, Huang Simei repeated the legendary story of "March [-]" for their husband and wife.

Hearing Agui and Erniang's unswerving love, Lin Zirou couldn't help feeling filled with emotion: "It's so good! A couple for a lifetime!"

Wang Yunfei took her hand and interlocked his fingers: "We are a couple for the rest of our lives. I am Agui and you are Erniang!"

Along the way, Lin Zirou exclaimed repeatedly when he saw the ancient straw and mud boat-shaped houses in Erxian Village.

Literature records: "Li people live in one building with two eaves. Where the Han people are adjacent, the door is opened under the eaves, and the walls are made of woven wood and painted with mud, like a boat canopy."

Seeing that Lin Zirou was very interested, Huang Simi quickly explained to her the beautiful legend of the boat house.

Legend has it that Princess Danya of the Li country in the South China Sea, because her three husbands died one after another, was rumored by the fortune-teller to descend to earth as a broom star, which would lead to the ruin of the family and the country.

Amid the people's calls for Princess Danya to be executed, the king couldn't bear it, and sent the pregnant Princess Danya to a boat without a rudder and oars, and only prepared some wine and food, a machete and three Let her fend for herself.

Princess Danya drifted with the waves with her beloved little yellow dog, and finally ran aground on the shore of a deserted island.

This island is the current island. Princess Danya got off the boat and looked at the jungle with high mountains. Monkeys were playing carefree. Her depression and panic were swept away, and she planned to settle down.

In order to shelter from the wind and rain, and to defend against the invasion of wild animals, Danya set up wooden piles, buckled the boat upside down on the wood to make a roof, cut thatch to surround the wooden piles, and built his own home.

During the day, Princess Danya took her beloved little yellow dog up the mountain to hunt and pick wild fruits; at night, she rested in the boat house to replenish her energy.

After the wind and sun rotted the ship planks, Princess Danya covered the roof with thatch, but still kept the ship planks.

This is the prototype of the boat-shaped house where the Li people live on the island.

When Lin Zirou was in the village, he saw various boat-shaped houses: elevated boat-shaped houses and low-bay (floor-style) boat-shaped houses were scattered, which became a beautiful landscape of Erxian Village.

These boat-shaped houses are shaped like boat canopies in an arched shape, intertwined with red and white vines, and the boat-shaped roof is covered with thick basil or sunflower leaves. From a distance, it looks like an upside-down boat.

The round arch shape is still strong even in typhoon weather. The overhead structure can effectively prevent moisture and heat in the humid coastal environment of the island. Because of its simple construction and good function, it has been passed down from generation to generation in the settlement of the Li nationality.

Lin Ziruan and Wang Yunfei were amazed at the wisdom of the ancestors of the Li nationality, and also listened with relish to the legends told by Huang Simmei.

Lin Zirou couldn't help asking her: "Are there any records of these stories? How do you remember them so clearly?"

Huang Simei smiled shyly and said: "This is passed down from mouth to mouth in our Erxian Village. Just like our Qiongju opera, many singing songs are not based on theories in books, but on the inheritance of master and apprentice, one sentence at a time. The figure and martial arts of the five majors of life, dan, jing, ugliness, and last are all passed down by the master teaching each move one by one."

Lin Zirou looked at her as if looking up at a fairy: "Sister-in-law, now I not only fall in love with Qiongju! It seems that I also fall in love with you! How can you be so capable! So beautiful!"
