Chapter 18 Eight Suonas clear the way! (Welcome the third helmsman, idiot! Please recommend!)
When the sky was dim and bright, Su Chen walked along the mountain road halfway up the mountain and arrived near Principal Tang's mourning hall.
Dressed in ancient plain clothes, it attracted many people's attention.
The suona in his hand was wrapped in a special black wrapping.
It is not revealed, but the extraordinary aura exuding from his whole body is something that most people would not dare to approach easily.
His eyes scanned the surrounding area.
Principal Tang's mourning hall is an abandoned school built halfway up the mountain.
The ruins of the walls have made it difficult to recognize that this was once a place where reading could be heard loudly.
As the sky gets brighter, more and more people gather up along the foot of the mountain.
They walked slowly towards the hillside, like an endless stream flowing upstream.
Some of these people are former students of Principal Tang, and some are residents of the town.
There were also people coming from surrounding towns.
In their hands they carried some paper money or wreaths.
They placed the paper money on the mourning hall, and flowers were piled in front of the mourning hall, surrounded by Tang Ying's photos.
The wreaths are placed on both sides of the mourning hall. If they can no longer be placed, they will be moved to the old wall of the school next to it.
Later, Juan'er, who was standing by, handed them the mourning clothes and hats that had been prepared long ago.
Wearing mourning clothes and hats, they kowtowed to Principal Tang twice before the coffin in the mourning hall.
Likewise, Juaner should greet the guests and kowtow in return.
More and more guests arrived, making the abandoned school halfway up the mountain look like a vast expanse of white from a distance.
The white mourning clothes, the white mourning hall, and the white elegiac wreath.
Before I knew it, it was eight o'clock in the morning.
There are more and more people coming to the foot of the mountain.
Except for Principal Tang’s former students and residents of the town.
Su Chen looked around and saw that many children were being led by adults, with white corsages on their chests, walking towards the abandoned school on the hillside.
These children are all students of Principal Tang.
Parents brought their children to see Principal Tang off.
On the way to the mourning hall, Su Chen also inquired about Principal Tang and learned something about it:
The entire Huayi Town went from not having a single school to a temporary village primary school with only a few students in the small classroom. The school-age children were busy with farm work and unable to study, and the family was unwilling to spend extra money.
; The elderly at home feel that it is more useful to let their children help with some farm work than to send them to school. It is precisely because of this that the teachers who support education have left one after another, and the education of the students has become more difficult.
Faced with such a predicament, Principal Tang did not give up. On the one hand, she visited various families in Huayi Town and persuaded them to send their children to school and receive education; on the other hand, she traveled to various related institutions.
, create better conditions for children to go to school, and find more teachers who are willing to come to teach.
Hard work pays off. Principal Tang’s eighteen years of perseverance finally succeeded in establishing a town school where children of all grades can receive education! These eighteen years of hard work have resulted in every child being able to
If you don’t give up studying because of poverty, you will get those young faces full of hope and longing! In exchange, you will get those Mama Tang’s voices that come from the heart!
Su Chen stood on the mountainside and looked towards the mountain road, imagining the scene of Tang Ying enduring the pain over the years, sweating and walking on various difficult and bumpy mountain roads.
Hard work, but very determined!
More and more men, women, and children are walking towards this abandoned school, lining up in a long line, walking to the mourning hall, placing wreaths, kneeling on their knees, lighting incense, and kowtow!
Seeing this scene, many villagers in the crowd couldn't help but squeeze out of the crowd, just to go to Principal Tang's mourning hall and kowtow to Principal Tang!
The cries were suppressed.
Coupled with the vast whiteness all around, it was like something was grabbing everyone's heart.
It's depressingly uncomfortable.
Almost everyone in Huayi Town came to attend the funeral.
Sometimes they lowered their heads to wipe away tears, and sometimes they remembered the life of Principal Tang. No one could laugh.
In the mourning hall, Xiao Ai looked at Juan'er angrily, gritting his teeth:
"Everyone raised money for you to go and invite Suona, but now you tell me that you haven't been invited? Do you think such a big thing as a funeral is just child's play!?"
"You think I don't want to? You haven't seen the domineering look of Team Leader Li, otherwise you would..."
Juaner said with aggrieved expression, already feeling a little regretful.
She didn't expect that so many people would come to the funeral, let alone that the scene would be so exaggerated!
The endless filial piety of the students can cover half of the mountain!
The man hid aside and did not dare to speak.
Xiao Ai's eyes were red with anger and her whole body was shaking!
At this time, a rough voice was suddenly heard outside the mourning hall!
"Li's class, the suona is here!"
The extremely penetrating voice seemed particularly abrupt in the calm and solemn funeral scene!
The rough and penetrating voice carries a solemn sense of ceremony.
The crowd outside the mourning hall was like a fading snow-white tide, slowly moving to both sides.
A temporary path about one meter wide was separated.
At the end of the path, a middle-aged man appeared holding a black-handled suona!
"Master Li!"
"Master Li is here!"
"The leader of Li's class, Li Hongzheng!"
People around were whispering that the Li family was a well-known team throughout the country, and it was extremely difficult for anyone to invite them to appear when something happened.
I just don’t know, how many Li’s classes have been invited this time?
Hearing the noise outside, the people in the mourning hall quickly came out. Juan'er was extremely surprised when she saw Li Hongzheng for the first time.
After all, Li Hongzheng was so decisive when he rejected him yesterday.
But at this moment, she didn't dare to blame Team Leader Li.
He quickly bowed and saluted, and greeted him respectfully.
After saluting, Juaner raised her eyes to look at Leader Li opposite.
Li Hong's expression did not change, and he walked towards the mourning hall with a solemn expression.
Behind him, several apprentices also appeared!
Three apprentices, each holding a suona.
Plus Li Hongzheng’s one.
A total of four suonas appeared in front of her.
Four!
Two large suonas, one medium suona and one small suona!
These are the four most powerful suona players in the Li family class.
Some young people did not know the rules and quickly asked the elders around them for advice:
"Uncle, why are there so many suonas?"
"The number of suonas is also very particular, either four or eight. When a person is alive, there are four suonas and eight sedans; when a person is dead, there are four suonas and eight suonas!"
"I see!"
"Si Tai, why is it Si Tai!?"
"Four people bowed in salute, and eight filial sons knelt down to greet her. The woman just bowed and saluted, and it seems that the four people she invited were invited!"
"The four instruments played by the leader Li himself are pretty good!"
Everyone was obviously disappointed and comforted each other.
According to their expectations, with a status like Principal Tang, no matter what, it would be the Batai Suona that would open the way!
Looking at the scene in front of me, it seems that there are only four suonas!
Outside the mourning hall, Xiao Ai's tears immediately flowed out. For a moment, she didn't know whether it was anger or grievance.
But soon, everyone’s eyes changed!
Juan'er's eyes also narrowed, as if she couldn't believe what she saw!
Three more apprentices followed from behind, holding various musical instruments in their hands.
It’s the erhu, flute, and sheng!
The last burly man was carrying a drum!
The faces of the eight people were all solemn with a hint of sadness!
It turned out to be Batai!!
Su Chen, who was watching the funeral not far away, nodded with satisfaction when he saw this scene, and the eight suonas opened the way!
Only then are you worthy of being sent off by Principal Tang!
Eight suonas,
A filial son kneels down to greet you!
Juaner looked excited and knelt down quickly.
Eight suonas, eight suonas played by leader Li himself!
This is the respect the Li family class has for Principal Tang.
The guests wearing mourning in the distance, the students of Principal Tang, and the villagers of Huayi Town all looked a little moved when they saw this scene.
Even more excited, my eyes were red and I was holding back tears...
