Chapter 199 Cultural Performance
Perhaps sensing Qiu Huoming's embarrassment, Zhao Jiamin poked his arm, "Why don't we put the rice on the small coffee table next to it and eat it..."
Qiu Huoming nodded in agreement, "Master, uncles, classmate Zhao and I will go to the side to eat, otherwise you won't be able to let go of the boxers."
Xu Lang also felt that the seats were too crowded. When he saw him asking to sit at the small table, he immediately agreed, "Let's move to a larger dining table another day. I will wrong you both today."
Qiu Huoming was overjoyed. He didn't come to the table, which meant that today's meal was exempted.
The two of them filled their plates with rice and some vegetables, and sat down at the small coffee table.
"You don't even have to divert the trouble away. It seems that God is taking pity on you..." Zhao Jiamin joked in a low voice.
"Because of your glory, last time you were away, I was so dizzy..."
"Don't look at my uncle's thin body, but he has a good drinking capacity..."
Lao Jin was drinking rice wine and sipping it with a contented expression. Within less than a minute, the two of them started to argue again over some topics.
There was no way to argue with words, so the drinking order was immediately followed, and the outcome was determined by it.
Qiu Huoming and Zhao Jiamin finished their meal amidst their noise.
"I've gone back to school, do you still have to wait for your uncle?" Qiu Huoming asked.
"No wait, as long as he drinks, he will lose his bottom. I will go back by myself. Come on, I want to go to the station too."
Zhao Jiamin put away the bowls and chopsticks and stood up.
She greeted Lao Jin casually, "Uncle, I'm going home first."
Lao Jin wiped the corner of his mouth and said, "Hey, okay, you can go back by yourself. I'll be back after I finish drinking..."
Zhao Jiamin responded and walked downstairs.
"Master, I'm back to school. Goodbye, uncles." Qiu Huoming also stood up.
"Wait a minute." Xu Lang took two connected copper keys from his arms and tossed them away.
Qiu Huoming reached out to catch it.
"From now on, you can come here any day. I'm usually here on Sunday mornings." Xu Lang waved his hand after saying, "Let's go, let's go."
Qiu Huoming put away the keys, walked a few steps quickly, and caught up with Zhao Jiamin downstairs.
Xu Lang, who was upstairs, teased Lao Jin, "They left together, aren't you worried?"
Lao Jin snorted coldly, "Amin is smart and knows what to do and what not to do. You should worry about it. In the future, your apprentice will be kidnapped by me..."
The two of them got angry as they talked, and started fighting over drinks.
Qiu Huoming caught up with Zhao Jiamin, and the two walked side by side outside the park.
"Your uncle and the others have a deep relationship." Qiu Huoming sighed.
"They all grew up and went to the same school. Our Jin family were also patriots back then. During the Anti-Japanese War, we supported many people, including their family members..."
"The previous generation's relationship was already good, but in their generation it's even better."
At noon, there was almost no one in the park. The sun was hot and the lake was sparkling. The two people were walking and talking, and they were almost at the entrance of the park.
Suddenly a voice sounded behind them, "Qiu Huoming?"
Qiu Huoming turned around and saw Pan Jincheng holding a soda in his hand and wearing short-sleeved shorts, trotting over from behind.
"Sure enough, it's you, and you're here to see Uncle Xu again? Have you seen my cat?" Pan Jincheng asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Jiamin beside him.
"Hey, you..."
Zhao Jiamin smiled and said: "Why isn't your sister here? I haven't seen her for a long time."
"Sister Jiamin, my sister lives on campus and doesn't usually come back."
Qiu Huoming looked at his expression with a mixture of arrogance and respect. His attitude towards himself and Zhao Jiamin were completely different.
"I saw Xiaobai, why didn't you go in? Your uncle didn't welcome you? Then again, why are you here?" Qiu Huoming asked.
"I live nearby. This is my base camp. I'm not happy to see my uncle. I'm just worried about my cat..." Pan Jincheng said.
Zhao Jiamin asked: "Don't worry, Xiaobai is living a good life, and he has a cat friend. Oh, by the way, your sister lives on campus, why don't you live on campus?"
Pan Jincheng curled his lips and said, "My mother won't let me."
He was a little downcast, "I'm going back..."
He took the soda, strode in front of them, and walked quickly into an alley outside the park.
"He seems to have an awkward temper, but he has a good heart. When he was a child, he often fed small animals and was very soft-hearted. You can't tell..." Zhao Jiamin said.
"He's a naughty kid, but he's quite principled."
"Their family has good tutors..."
The two of them walked as far as possible along the shade of the trees on the street. The heat on the road hit them, making them feel like they were being roasted.
"There's a popsicle seller out front. Let me buy you one. It's so hot..." Qiu Huoming felt smoke rising from his throat.
I bought two popsicles, one for each person. Qiu Huoming bit into them, the ice touched his teeth, and the coolness spread in his mouth...
Everyone felt comfortable.
There were not many people waiting for the bus at the station. It was too hot and everyone was feeling miserable.
"Do you want me to take you home?" Qiu Huoming asked.
"No, I'll arrive in one car, so you don't need to transfer."
Not long after waiting, several buses pulled into the station one after another as if they were scheduled. Zhao Jiamin was lucky, the bus she was waiting for happened to stop in front of her, "Goodbye."
She waved her hand and went straight to the car.
Bus No. 22 was at the end of the queue. The door slowly opened, and several young people immediately ran over.
Qiu Huoming also ran over...
After sweating profusely, Kankan quickly got into the car just as the driver was about to drive away.
Fortunately, there were not many people in the car. He found a seat by the window and used his hand as a fan. The car was not much better than outdoors. The wind brought a heat wave and he missed the air-conditioned cars of later generations...
After returning to school, I was dragged to rehearsal that night, and the next few days of evening self-study were spent in the auditorium.
There will be a half-day holiday on the 30th. Starting at 2: pm, the National Day cultural performance will officially begin.
Those who went on stage needed to put on make-up in advance. Qiu Huo clearly refused the offer of a part-time make-up artist and did not have thick eyebrows and big eyes like the others in the group.
Zhao Jiamin changed into her favorite purple dress and attracted most people's attention as soon as she appeared.
She took her violin and sat next to Qiu Huoming. Both of them had outstanding temperament, and the tutor couldn't help but look at them a few more times.
She put on light makeup today, and her desolate temperament was a little more charming.
"Have you read the program list?" Zhao Jiamin asked.
"Look, you are ranked fifth, and I am ranked behind you. There is a poem recitation and a dance in between..."
The two of them were chatting when Pan Jincheng came over and said, "Sister Jiamin, I'm in front of you." After saying that, he sat down next to her.
The students who performed all arrived early. In order to make it easier to enter and exit the backstage, a space was circled on the left side near the backstage.
At this moment, students are already coming to the auditorium in an endless stream.
Cheng Xiaohui came a little late because she had to do the makeup of a rural girl. As soon as she saw Pan Jincheng, she yelled that she wanted to change places with him. Pan Jincheng was good at this and didn't quarrel with the girls, so he immediately moved next to Qiu Huoming.
As soon as Cheng Xiaohui got attached to Zhao Jiamin, she started asking questions, and even Qiu Huoming couldn't get in the conversation.
Pan Jincheng looked at Qiu Huoming from the side and suddenly asked: "Qiu... Squad leader Qiu, can I participate in your 'English Corner'?"
Qiu Huoming glanced at him in surprise. This kid took the wrong medicine. For the first time, he didn't call himself by his first name. He explained: "Of course, our aim is to educate everyone without discrimination..."
As soon as Pan Jincheng thanked him, he realized that there was something slightly wrong with this sentence, "There is no distinction between education and distinction? Do you mean me?"
Qiu Huoming looked at him and shook his head: "You are overthinking it. Now the English Corner is not only attended by students, some are staff, and some family members and children of school staff will also come..."
Pan Jincheng fell silent. Although the young man had an awkward personality, he could tell the difference between good and evil. Since this sentence was not directed at him, he could not be unhappy about it.
While the two were silent, the loudspeakers on both sides of the stage suddenly sounded loudly. This was the sound check by the logistics team.
It seemed that the performance was about to begin. Qiu Huoming glanced at his watch. There were still 20 minutes left.
Pan Jincheng clenched the bamboo flute in his hand, with excitement in his expression, but no nervousness at all. He was very similar to Qiu Huoming in that they were not afraid.
At this time, most of the venue was full, and everyone was talking. The sound of music mixed with everyone's voices. As the number of people entering the venue increased, some students participating in the performance began to feel uneasy. The counselor next to them was patient. , constantly comforting them...
Even Cheng Xiaohui was a little uneasy. Zhao Jiamin understood her and distracted her attention with a few words.
This year's program is a lot more entertaining than previous ones, so everyone is full of expectations for this year's art show. The program was announced a week ago. In recent days, almost everyone's talk revolves around the art show. .
Just after 2:, the music suddenly stopped and two hosts, a man and a woman, came on stage.
Qiu Huoming glanced back and saw that the dark venue was full of people. Those who had no seats simply stood on the sides and in the aisle.
The first three rows in the center were occupied by school leaders and some teachers, as well as guests invited from outside the school.
Both hosts are dressed up today. The female host is wearing a red dress and white leather shoes. The male host is wearing a white shirt with a bow tie on his upper body, a pair of black trousers on the bottom, and a pair of white leather shoes on his feet. Polished black leather shoes.
Red velvet was tied to the microphone, with a long line trailing underneath. The host dragged the microphone to the center of the stage.
Their voices spread through the speakers to every corner of the venue.
The first performance was still the same as the rehearsal, with Zhang Chunhua singing "Ode to Red Plum Blossoms"...
The atmosphere was heightened.
As Zhao Jiamin came on stage, the atmosphere reached a climax. Her appearance and temperament were outstanding, and with the blessing of music, she became a goddess in one fell swoop and became a goddess in the hearts of the audience.
The better she became, the more resentful Tan Jialiang and Cai Jiwei felt. While they were performing on the stage, they were whispering to each other.
"Old Tan, don't worry, do you know that Qiu Huoming is running for the vice president of the student union?" Cai Jiwei said with seeming concern.
Tan Jialiang sneered, "Come on, why should he compete with me for this position instead of you? Didn't you slap him in the face enough last time? I just don't like him, but that's all. The guy in the stands... …”
"I have an outstanding appearance, and I heard that my grades are very good. I don't have any idea. Anyway, I don't lack a girlfriend..." Tan Jialiang didn't shy away from it. Anyway, he has never had a good reputation when it comes to relationships between the sexes.
"She doesn't even look down on you, but how can she like me? I have no idea about her. A good man doesn't fight with women. Didn't you say you wanted her to join the student union last time?"
"She didn't fill it out, but her roommate filled it out for her. I didn't know it, but it was her name and signature on the form, so I just accepted it..." Tan Jialiang snorted coldly, "She originally majored in mathematics. I'm still her senior brother, and she actually went to the Department of Architecture, and Lao Luo is here to protect her..."
"She probably has someone in mind."
As soon as Tan Jialiang said this sentence, it resonated with Cai Jiwei, "I think it's that kid..."
"Can the same thing last time be done soon?" he asked tentatively.
Tan Jialiang shook his head, "That's not right, wait a little longer, we have to leave no trace. Look at Zheng Yongqiang..."
Cai Jiwei shuddered. What happened in his freshman year came to his mind again, "It's hard to handle the person named Qiu, but this guy is quite capable and has a pretty good reputation among the freshmen..."
Tan Jialiang glanced at Cai Jiwei. The boy was obviously giving up.
While they were chatting, it was Qiu Huoming's turn.
As soon as the host's broadcast ended, he saw Qiu Huoming carrying a guitar on stage. The microphone was fixed on a long pole. He stood behind him. He put the guitar on his back and reached out to pluck a few notes... …
His fingering was smooth and the chords accompanied the singing. This way of singing made the people in the audience mesmerized...
After singing the song, there was thunderous applause.
Cai Jiwei heard someone commenting not far behind him, "He is Qiu Huoming, and he is responsible for the English Corner. I didn't expect him to be so good at singing. I heard that he is running for student union minister? I want to vote for him." "
Jealousy was stirred in his heart again, and his expression became uncertain for a moment.
"I'll vote for him too. The English Corner is really good. I've been there several times. Don't you think I'm a little bolder now?"
Voices of approval rose one after another behind him.
Tan Jialiang's face looked a little worried. He was about to say something when he suddenly heard Cai Jiwei snort, "The rafters in the early years are easy to rot..."
"I heard that a while ago, a lot of people were arrested for speculating..." Tan Jialiang said with a smile. Cai Jiwei looks like he has no power, but he is actually suspicious and jealous. As long as you have a good grasp of the scale, you don't have to worry about him. Not for your own use.
"Hit the snake seven inches..." Cai Jiwei was obviously a little worried.
"I've read his information, don't worry, his family background couldn't be more ordinary..."
Both of them spoke in extremely low voices, "It's not convenient to talk about it here. We'll talk about it later..."
After the art performance, Qiu Huoming's reputation suddenly soared. Originally, he only had a good reputation among freshmen, but now some seniors also favor him.
At the freshman ceremony, I met Hou Yizhao, the student representative of the old students, who promoted him well in their department. Hou Yizhao is very famous among the old students. He is a mathematical genius and has participated in many competitions, large and small. I heard that after he graduates, he will be sent directly by the school to study abroad on a government-sponsored basis.
With this great man's endorsement for Qiu Huoming, Qiu Huoming's campaign for vice president of the student union got some extra help.
Coupled with the aftermath of this cultural performance, Qiu Huoming felt that as long as he could hold his own, the vice-president should be in the bag.
Happy New Year. I climbed a mountain today and am so exhausted...
Between making progress and going to work, Xiao Zuo chose to burn incense...
