The place I chose was still the open space in front of the canopy, but the direction of the stage was slightly changed. In my opinion, even if the stage is facing the canopy, it is impossible for all the relatives and friends who are dining to face the performance. Since it is impossible for everyone to see it, then simply ignore the question of whether you can see the show while eating. Besides, if the diners are interested in the show, they can go to the other side to watch the show after eating.
Regarding my decision, all the relatives and friends around did not raise any objections. Because after all, I am the head of the family now, and it is necessary to show some respect to me.
However, the owner of the small shop seemed to be a little bit reluctant, she said: "Isn't there a tree blocking the place you chose?"
Her words were a wake-up call to me, so I said to the stage builder: "Master (a kind of respectful title for artists here), in order to facilitate viewing, I think the stage should be slightly tilted to the west. Facing the southwest direction, in this way, the view will be much wider.¡±
"Well, I also think this direction is good. However, there are still a few branches blocking it." I don't know if it's because of the rush, but in short, the stage host appreciated my opinion very much.
"It's okay. This tree belongs to my uncle's house. I will ask someone to cut down the blocking branch immediately."
After listening to what I said, the person who set up the stage went straight to work without saying anything more.
Just at this moment, a very uncoordinated voice sounded again. "What's so good about this place? Look, the water on the well is drained here. Immediately, the family banquet is busy, and I don't know how much water will be drained? If the time comes, this place will be full of stagnant water, you How can I let others perform?"
I have to say that the observation of opening a small shop is quite careful. Under the reminder of her words, I also noticed this problem.
"It's okay, this problem is easy to solve. Just dig a ditch along the drainage hole to divert the sewage away. Then, dig a deep hole in this place. The problem will be solved!" The cousin standing aside heard, Immediately opened the mouth to explain.
I gave my cousin a grateful look. I know that my cousin is unconditionally supporting me, the head of the family who has not been in office for a long time, and is doing his best to maintain the authority of the head of the family, who has not yet had much prestige.
"How much water does it take to make a family banquet? What problem can a temporary small ditch solve?" The owner of the small shop retorted a little unconvinced.
"I think this method is feasible. It is now in a dry period. Look at the soil in this field. A little water is not enough to keep them full. How much water can a family feast use? Ditches plus deep pits, and at the same time The absorption of the long-drought soil must be enough to solve all the problems. Besides, the stage is much higher than the ground, even if there is a little water, it will not have much impact on the performance." As for Li, my cousin supports me, so I naturally have to support my cousin with all my strength.
After hearing what I said, the owner of the small shop still said reluctantly: "This is so troublesome! I think it's better for me to choose a place. Put it there, facing the west, and don't need to dig ditches for drainage. Yes, how nice!"
"Then, will you help dig up the whole tree!" The feeling of being on the stage couldn't stand it, and finally couldn't help but sarcastically said.
"What about digging tree trunks? You can't see it from the front, so can't you just watch from the sidelines!" The shop owner replied disapprovingly.
What is a fly? This is the one in front of me! Probably Tang Seng in "A Chinese Journey to the West" is nothing more than that. Now I have a deep understanding of the pain that Monkey King endured in the film.
"Okay, don't talk anymore, the matter is settled like this! If you say what I say, even if you quarrel until midnight, there will be no results!" At the critical moment, I had to take action, but I couldn't care if I offended him or not. people. Because, if this person is allowed to quarrel like this again and things change, then I am afraid that the problem of choosing the location of the stage today will really be unsolvable. Although I have always been quite kind, at this moment I had to look serious and resolute to stop the nonsense behavior of the small shop owner who wanted to speak again.
My rare strength is obviously unexpected when I opened a small shop. She was a little dazed, but before she could continue pestering her, a wise man reminded her loudly: "Go back and have a look! It seems that someone has come to your house to buy something!"
Hearing this, although the owner of the small shop was a little reluctant, he finally left angrily.
"Who was that woman just now?" She couldn't help asking while she was busy on the stage.
"It's a neighbor." I explained helplessly.
"No, just?? Neighbors! How do you act like a hostess? Even if it's the hostess, this man has already spoken, so what is she still talking about? (Typical patriarchal feudal ideology)" After listening to the stage, he complained rather unhappily.
"This time, she went too far. However, she is also kind and wants to help choose a better stage position." Hearing this, I explained it nicely.
"Good intentions? What kind of good intentions is this? She is obviously messing up the soup (dialect, which means trouble here). I just didn't know her identity at the time, otherwise I wouldn't give her a good look!" It seems that setting up the stage He still resented her for delaying her start time.
However, his words resonated with the crowd around him. As a result, many people followed suit. In the end, everyone almost reached a consensus that "he is a man of ability".
The so-called eyes of the masses are discerning. The practice of opening a small shop this time is indeed inappropriate, and even disgusting. However, we can't beat her to death just because of this. In fact, generally speaking, apart from talking nonsense and showing off, the owner of the small shop is still a pretty good person.
For example, during the National Day holiday, the owner of the small shop took the initiative to pick a lot of peanuts for our family. In the end, it was also under her mobilization that the neighbors helped each other that night, and the unforgettable scene of that night was full of excitement and laughter. It was because of her mobilization that finally, we were able to complete the heavy task of picking peanuts before the end of the National Day holiday.
For example, on the morning when my father vomited blood and fell into a coma, if it weren't for the help and companionship of the small shop, the mother who was alone at home would definitely be at a loss and be at a loss. It was with her advice and help (my mother never used her mobile phone to dial our number) that my sister and I were able to know about my father's situation in time and rushed back to our hometown as soon as possible
In short, after my father returned home from the operation, the owner of the small shop has been helping my family in one way or another. Therefore, even when everyone was "condemning" that ignorant woman, I was still full of gratitude to her. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
