When the problem of eating was solved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and became happy.
However, thinking about what happened tonight, I became angry again.
"We can't just let it go tonight. I can't swallow this breath." Chen Dawei said angrily.
"They must be taught a lesson." echoed others.
"That's right, if they don't give us good things, let's not make them feel good either."
Jiang Chunxiu nodded in agreement, thought for a moment, and narrowed his cold eyes, "They brought out so much millet for the soybean fields. In this case..."
Jiang Chunxiu told Chen Sanwang and the others like this.
Chen Sanwang and the others nodded repeatedly as they listened, their expressions becoming more and more cold and vicious.
"Okay, let's go to bed now that we're done. Save some kerosene." Jiang Chunxiu yawned and waved her hands, "Don't light the kerosene lamp for too long after you go back to the room, and you must not turn on the electric light, you know?"
"I know." The others agreed, feeling unhappy again. During this period, they almost didn't have anything to eat.
Therefore, Jiang Chunxiu did not let them turn on the lights to save on electricity bills, and did not let them light the kerosene lamps for too long. After all, it costs money to buy kerosene.
They were used to switching from electric lights to kerosene lamps, and they were very uncomfortable. You know, they used to turn on electric lights casually, unlike now, they have to save every kerosene lamp.
It's all Chen Zhaozhao's fault.
They all thought so, and their hatred for Chen Zhaozhao grew day by day.
The next day, in the early morning, Chen Sanmei left home early with Chen Dawang and Zhang Genshan who were delivering fruits to the supply and marketing cooperative.
She is going to work in the soy sauce factory today, full of expectations, excitement and anxiety to start a new life.
After breakfast, Chen Zhaozhao and Chen Simei also went to the county seat.
Chen Simei was also very nervous and anxious today. The art troupe was reviewing her, and she didn't know if she could stay.
When they arrived at the county art troupe, there were still ten minutes before the examination started, and many people were already walking in.
The location of the examination is in the training room of the art troupe, and only those who are participating in the examination can enter.
Chen Zhaozhao escorted Chen Simei outside the art troupe and watched her go in. There were many people taking the exam standing outside.
There are so many people here, it feels like sending your children to take the college entrance examination in future generations.
Chen Zhaozhao stood there and did not leave until Chen Simei could no longer be seen.
The examination took time, so she took advantage of this time to get Yu Jinggui's clothes.
The art troupe was some distance from the grain station. She hadn't fully recovered yet and was too lazy to walk, so she called a tricycle.
When she arrived at the family courtyard of the grain station, because it was working time, there was no one in the family building, so she quickly entered Yu Jinggui's room and packed her things quickly.
On the other side, Chen Simei followed the people taking the examination to the training room. When she entered, there were already many people standing inside.
Everyone stood together in groups or in twos and threes chatting, and the training room was noisy.
Chen Simei was not used to such an occasion. Seeing this situation, her nervousness and anxiety instantly soared, and she felt like she wanted to run away.
But she thought about what Chen Zhaozhao told her on the way here, not to show timidity, but to be brave. If you are embarrassed to be in contact with others, don't contact them. You are beautiful alone.
Don't be afraid of being looked down upon. Rural people are not inferior to others. We dress well, look good, and have money. Our conditions are better than those in the county.
Even if you are scared, don't show it, just keep your face expressionless.
If you don't know what a deadpan face means, think of Lu Linfeng and imitate his look, so that others won't dare to cause trouble.
Don't be afraid if someone makes trouble for you. There is nothing wrong with scolding you back. Being aggressive is a good way to protect yourself.
For legitimate defense, don't be afraid of offending someone. Anyway, well, if it doesn't work, call the police and ask Lu Linfeng for support.
Thinking of this, Chen Simei smiled, walked into the training room with her head held high, and found a place to stand alone.
She felt that many people were looking at her, and she wanted to follow Chen Zhaozhao's advice and ignore them, but she couldn't help but glance over.
Those who looked at her secretly, were glanced at by her, and they all shy away from them in embarrassment.
Especially the young people who came to take the examination. They had never seen such a beautiful girl and couldn't help but look at her again and again.
The county cultural troupe is recruiting people this time, including both male and female actors. However, it is only recruiting four male actors, and the number of young people who signed up is much less than that of girls.
From the moment Chen Simei entered the training room, many people's eyes fell on her.
Mainly because her appearance and temperament are so outstanding, and her clothes are also very nice.
She stood there feeling like she stood out from the crowd.
Many girls looked at her with jealousy in their eyes.
Soon the three leaders of the art troupe who were responsible for the examination arrived.
Everyone stood up, greeted the leader politely, and waited for the leader to take his seat and start the examination.
Chen Simei's heart skipped a beat when she saw one of the leaders. The female leader with a cold and arrogant face looked very similar to the staff member in charge of registration that day.
The two of them look like sisters. If they are sisters, they must have the same thoughts, right?
In this case, her chance of being selected is reduced by one-third.
Chen Simei felt a little melancholy, but she could only tell herself to look away.
Because there were so many people, the examiner gave a brief introduction and the examination began.
The selection process for the art troupe is very simple. Each group of fifty people will first learn a dance together, and those who perform well will be retained to enter the next round of singing assessment.
The total number of people who signed up was more than 540, and the eleventh round took nearly two hours to end.
After the dance assessment was over, the leaders discussed it and announced the results.
"Those whose names are called stay, and those whose names are not called can leave." The examiner stood up, "From the first to the fiftieth, the ones who stay are..."
Soon there were more than thirty people standing in the middle of the training room. Those who stayed were smiling happily, while those who were not called were sad, and some even cried.
They were asked out by the staff.
"Next are numbers 300 to 350, and those left behind are..."
When they were in their group, Chen Simei was so nervous that her heart was in her throat. When she heard the number 336 being called, she smiled happily and walked out.
But she smiled and stopped laughing. After all, she just passed the first round of assessment, and the next step is the key.
Finally, fifty girls and twenty boys entered the next round.
With so many people picking six or four, the odds are quite low.
The singing assessment cannot be conducted by multiple people at the same time. The examiner will give each person a familiar song and each person will sing a verse.
Rest for ten minutes before starting.
Everyone goes to drink water, and everyone goes to the toilet.
Ten minutes passed quickly and the singing assessment began.
For this singing assessment, seventy people were divided into three groups, and were assessed separately by three leaders.
Chen Simei was assigned to the group of the female team leader named Wang, who looked very similar to the staff member responsible for registration.
When Chen Simei saw that she was assigned to her group, her already nervous heart instantly became even more nervous. She felt that her hope of passing was slim.
There are three groups for the singing assessment, two groups of thirteen people and one group of fourteen people.
Chen Simei is in a group of thirteen people, and she ranks ninth.
Each person sang a section, which lasted for more than a minute, and soon it was her turn.
Chen Simei stood up. Team Leader Wang looked at her and asked with a cold expression, "No. 336, Chen Simei from Lishan Village?"
