Chapter 1568: Opera Troupe and Aunt

Officer Xiao Yang squeezed out of the crowd.

Song Tan asked curiously: "What is it that makes you so excited, is Qiaoqiao on the hot search?"

Yang Zhengxin grinned: "No, I swiped on Douyin that a boss in the neighboring city invited an opera troupe to celebrate his old mother's birthday, but they arrived a day early, the stage was built, and he wouldn't pay..."

At his age, he really had no feeling for opera; he was purely gossiping!

"Look at this comment section; the comment section says he bought tea leaves worth hundreds of thousands a jin from Chang Le Ju, he's rich! But he took a fancy to a girl who sang opera, and she didn't agree, so he deliberately withheld the remaining 20,000 yuan, not paying..."

This person!

Song Tan frowned: "How low-class!"

Now that opera troupes are declining, inviting opera singers for rural banquets might only earn those 20,000 yuan a day.

She and Lu Chuan got together and swiped through the comment section: "Liangcheng..."

Isn't this just bordering their Yuncheng? It's even closer than Huacheng!

Everyone loves gossip!

Officer Xiao Yang just shouted, and everyone pricked up their ears.

Now that they heard them whispering here, someone immediately asked:

"He is celebrating his old mother's birthday, didn't the old lady say a word of justice? In such a family, 20,000 yuan is not worth anything, right?"

Some people had also quickly opened Douyin and swiped to it, looking at the comments constantly refreshing in the comment section, frowning:

"Don't mention it, people say his mother is exactly the same as this son, a stingy and sharp-tongued old lady."

"Look, there's even a video here."

Inside, the old lady was wearing a flashy silk shirt, her dry and thin body couldn't be supported, but her voice was loud.

She was speaking in dialect, and everyone couldn't understand it very well, only vaguely knowing that she was scolding very dirty words.

And there were people in the comment section following up with translations: "She said there was a vixen in the opera troupe seducing her son, and this 20,000 shouldn't have been given in the first place..."

Pfft!

Little Doctor Guo was angry at the time: "Doesn't the comment section write it clearly? The girl is an opera major, accompanying her elders to practice a few shows during the holiday; who would take a fancy to this fat-headed, big-eared, old, and oily local boss!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

Yang Zhengxin was radiant: "This gossip is interesting, right? My mom loves watching it at home! She tells me about it at the dinner table."

Oh my! Once this was said, everyone was immediately surprised: it turned out that an outstanding entrepreneur like Officer Xiao Yang's mom didn't talk about stocks, companies, or projects at home, but had the same hobby as them!

No wonder she could teach a child like Officer Xiao Yang; so grounded, so likable!

Song Tan thought for a moment and looked at Lu Chuan: "How about..."

Lu Chuan thought about it: "If you want to invite them, invite them; it's just that it takes more than two hours to drive over from there, plus packing their stage and everything, and personnel rest, it will be night when they actually start singing."

Night is great!

At night, everyone in the village is free, and people from ten miles and eight villages will come to join the fun; Wu Lan and Song Sancheng probably won't love it, but Grandpa, Grandma, and Maternal Grandparents will definitely be overjoyed!

She immediately handed the phone to Officer Xiao Yang: "Is this a local troupe in Ningcheng? You ask if they are willing to come to our place; if they come, we will also arrange three or four hours of big opera at night."

Yang Zhengxin's spirit was lifted: "Then we have a ready-made stage!"

Just finished building such a large square, it's just the time to use it!

……

Yang Zhengxin was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, but he didn't rashly go to invite them; instead, he searched for this opera troupe online first, watched several clips, and went to their official account—

Poor! Only a mere 329 followers.

He sighed, and then went to the background to contact them.

And Qiaoqiao's livestream had already been turned off.

Grandpa Qi and Master Jiang were leading the employees to stir-fry large basins of dishes inside, with sweet and salty zongzi boiling in several large buckets nearby, and the vacuum sealer and packing boxes on the other side were all ready.

Little Zhang was staring at the orders coming out of the printer, and the 100 lucky draw zongzi would just be blindly pasted later.

Most of the employees' were to be taken back, but many people hadn't arranged their holidays yet, so they could only choose express delivery.

Only watermelons, tea leaves, and such, they firmly refused to send!

It wasn't that they felt the express fee was expensive; in fact, sending Fengfeng Express at the Old Song family's place was really quite affordable. But the problem was, no matter how good the express delivery was, it couldn't guarantee that the watermelon wouldn't break halfway!

For example, two people among the security guards said firmly: "I'll pack it in my backpack and take it back myself!"

The two small watermelons added up to about 10 jin, not even enough for the weight they carried for running every day!

Little Zhang: If he wasn't really reluctant to spend money, he would have bought two at this moment!

But this watermelon isn't enough to eat!

Gritting his teeth and taking one back at a friendly price of a hundred yuan, the whole family eats it up in two bites—isn't this like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit?

Such a lack of cost-effectiveness, he firmly refused to buy.

It was the zongzi; Wu Lan just said to let him take two back to taste, and Little Zhang was full of expectation.

And just at this time, Aunt Wu Fang and Uncle Zhang Hong finally arrived!

They came late, but as soon as they got out of the car, they greeted Zhang Yanping to move the boxes down; they were in the fruit wholesale business, and now, lychees, longans, grapes, bayberries, and large cherries, they brought two boxes of each.

One for Song Tan's family, and one for Wu Lei to take back, focusing on being practical.

The aunt was still embarrassed, and at this moment, she hugged two boxes of assorted fruits separately and greeted Guo Dong:

"Dongdong, Yan Ping said you don't eat much fruit usually, so I gathered a little of each for you; shall I put them back in the clinic for you? These bayberries and lychees need to be refrigerated quickly."

Guo Dong hurriedly thanked her and pulled Zhang Yanping back into the car again.

The aunt now thought she was pleasing in every way, not to mention the stable position she was thinking about... this is so good; there is a doctor in the family (rural clinic version), and one doing business (homestay non-profit version)!

Oh my, just get married and have a child quickly, and their task will be completed!

This old tune had to be played again, and Zhang Yanping hurriedly interrupted: "Mom, it's a holiday, shouldn't you give Guo Dong a red envelope!"

This task and that task, I don't know who gave them the KPI.

It's quite a sense of mission to say it out loud.

The aunt hurriedly said "Oh" again: "I have it, I have it."

She took a large red envelope out of her bag: "Your uncle and I are busy with business every day, and we can't take care of you. I don't know how Yan Ping's homestay is... Dongdong, I heard from a relative the other day that you can enter our People's Hospital with money, do you want to..."

Guo Dong was unmoved, smiling sweetly: "No need, Auntie. Yan Ping's career is here, I have to accompany him."

Zhang Yanping sat there motionless, thinking it's good that I planned to make more money early, and I will never let you live together in the future—

His mom is a good person, and her heart is good, it's just this concept... ===== CHAPTER 1569 =====
