Chapter 18 Preparation Before the Performance

Emenas, a town on the west side

The fields under the sunset are piled with straw hills, and the ground after the wheat is harvested still has broken sections of wheat stalks.

Feng Nai sat on a stone pier under the tree, watching the afterglow of the sunset spread over the world, pulling out long shadows from the hills made of straw.

The harvest is finally over.

This was her first time participating in field labor. Although she wanted to give up halfway through, she persisted because of her meager self-esteem.

When I go back today, I must take a good bath. Feng Nao began to miss the shower in the student dormitory, but there is also a bathtub in Servis' house, but it will take more time to boil water.

Residents of the town put these straws on carts and send them to the barn for storage. The next thing is threshing.

Penny came over with a bunch of ears of wheat.

"Miss, how do you feel, today's work." She leaned down, put her hands on her knees, and looked at this eldest lady who was different from the past.

"The only feeling now is that I don't want to do anything, then take a shower and eat something and lie in bed."

"It's nice to still remember to eat." Penny smiled.

"Has Feng Nai eaten wheat grains?"

"Of course the wheat has been eaten."

"It's either bread made of flour, or ears of wheat." Penny shook the ears of wheat in her hands. This bunch was different from the golden ears of wheat in the field, and it was blue in color, as if it wasn't fully ripe.

"Come with me." Penny took Feng Nai to a place where the wind was blowing, and then picked up a little straw left on the ground and lit it together. A puff of green smoke rose with the smoky smell, followed by A faint flame ignited.

As the personal maid of the eldest Miss of the Anemii family, although she is not considered top-notch, she still has Sequence 2. Usually, she can easily heat things up and serve her master better.

"Is this what you want?" Feng Nai looked at Penny with some puzzlement.

"It's roasted wheat ears."

Penny took the cyan bunch of wheat ears and roasted them on an open fire, and soon the smoke rose, and occasionally there was a crackling sound. As the flame ignited, Penny turned the ear of wheat in her hand to heat it evenly, and then a faint fragrance wafted out.

"All right."

Penny took off the bunch of wheat ears, and the shell of the originally blue ear grains was covered with a layer of charred black, the smell of smoky fire was in the air, and a little white ash floated and fell in the air.

"Do you want to eat and see, it's actually quite good."

After cooling down a little, Penny put the ear of wheat in her palm and rubbed it, and the dust and soft skin fell off. Then Penny opened her palm and let Feng Nai pick out the grains of wheat to eat.

Feng Nai was a little curious to try one. A waxy and sweet feeling filled the tip of the tongue. Although the weight was not large, the taste was very novel.

"Can you still eat wheat like this?" She stretched out her hand and took the roasted ears of wheat from Penny's hands, eating them in small pieces.

"Well, but it can only be unripe green wheat ears. The mature wheat grains are hard, so it's not good to eat it. Besides, there are a lot of black ashes when roasted. Those noble people will not try it."

"However, the taste is really novel."

When Feng Nao was eating, his fingers were also stained with black ash. Now this eldest lady is a little less innocent and a little more sunny and beautiful.

"Just like it. In fact, there are many novel and interesting things in the world." Penny stood beside Feng Nai and said. As the sun gradually went down, dragonflies flew in the fields under the afterglow of the sunset.

"thanks."

Feng Nai knew that Penny was enlightening herself. After two years of traveling and living abroad, she had gradually come out of the sadness of the past.

Although everything in the family has dissipated, at least she is still alive, right? Just like this field, even if the sky will be dark, the sunset will still be beautiful, and until tomorrow, the sun will still rise, and new life will be born on the earth.

"After graduation, I will travel around the world and then go back to Hopeland to say hello to Meru and tell her about my experiences over the years."

"After that, we will go to other places and run the Anemii family again."

She took off her hat, stood up, and looked into the distance side by side with Penny, letting her light red hair sway in the evening breeze.

Temple College, Singing Church.

The afternoon sun shone through the stained glass windows. Men and women in white stood on the steps to practice singing. They were sitting and preparing for the upcoming Winter Festival Gala.

In the row of chairs below sit a few students and teachers, listening to the performance above and occasionally pointing out areas for improvement.

In the last row of the church, the two girls sat side by side.

"Does Rosie usually attend classes and sing here?" Frozia asked, sitting beside the silver-haired girl, turning her head.

"Well, but I usually don't sing." Although he is known as a handed down singer, Loren Hill is shy and usually doesn't take the initiative to perform.

"You don't have to sing too well, just pass the average, your voice is very dominant." Frocia thought that Roland Hill was afraid that she could not sing well.

"This...Although I don't have much time to sing publicly, I can still hum." In fact, she does hum a short tune when she is alone.

Since last year, the crown of melody, Vicki, has been in an abnormal state due to the power of the Chaos Phantom.

state. The playing strength has dropped significantly, and in this year's melody crown competition, he also lost to other singers of the new generation.

And this new generation of singers has now come to the door to invite Rosie to join this year's Winter Festival Gala.

Faced with such an invitation, Roland Hill, who had an appointment with Frocia, of course readily agreed, so almost everyone began to participate in the rehearsal.

As the finale of this winter party, not only Lorraine Hill, but the new generation of Melody Crown also invited several celebrities and powerful people in the academy, including herself, a total of seven people will appear on the stage.

"It's almost there."

While the choir was resting, a girl in the front row came over. She had slightly dark skin, short white hair, a small earring on one ear, and a very neutral dressing style. And there are metal corners and accessories on the clothes. This is the owner of the current Emenas Melody Crown, Jan Di, known as the 'Blasting Voice'.

"Lü Shuang said she would be here later." A girl with the same light brown skin stood up, it was Ling Xin.

"Oh, since Sister Ling Xin said so, it shouldn't be a problem." Jian Di's height is shorter than Ling Xin's, not as tall as she is.

"Then let me introduce you to everyone first, and then Lü Shuang will come and help her fill it up." The girl with a somewhat tomboyish personality clapped her palm to attract everyone's attention.

"Welcome everyone to participate in this Winter Festival Gala hosted and designed by me. I feel very honored to see everyone prepare so seriously. You must have watched the various programs of this year, and many people are most concerned about the finale. Performance, here I will briefly introduce."

"The last one on stage will be a performance composed of seven singers. The seven people are me, Frosia, Lüshuang, Lingxin, Vimiya, Rosie, and Igley."

"I believe everyone will know just by seeing the members of the team this time, what an unprecedented performance this is, and this time our goal is not only to hold the Winter Festival Gala, but also to make it a historical event in Emenas. monument!"

The new crown of melody's tone changed from low to high, and immediately aroused the emotions of the students in the church. There were also bursts of anticipation and excited cheers from the field.
