In addition to a singing competition for unmarried women, there was also a rope-pulling competition for unmarried men.
That is to say, the competitions in Qingshui Town were all aimed at unmarried men and women, with women showcasing their talents and men showcasing their strength.
The better a village girl could sing, the more popular she was.
The stronger a village man was, the more popular he was.
Due to the town’s celebration, classes in town had been suspended during those days.
The unmarried young men in their prime such as Mo Wenxuan, Liu Chang, and Tie Dan had all returned home.
However, participation in the competition required passing a preliminary selection.
Mo Wenxuan, who seldom did any farm work, was eliminated in the first round.
Liu Chang and Tie Dan, on the other hand, made the cut.
Before the official competition, the village also arranged a friendly match between Daping Village and the neighboring Dajin Village.
They were completely defeated by Dajin Village, losing all three rounds, leaving the village chief at a loss for words.
Some said, “Dajin Village is famously known as Zhuanghan Village, where the villagers excel in hunting and farming.
However, Daping Village’s young men have become too lazy before marriage, unaware of the importance of building up their strength before taking a wife.”
Soon, someone brought up the name Ye Ge, “Don’t we also have an unmarried man in our village who excels at both hunting and farming?
What about Ye Ge?”
In the following days, several people tried to persuade Ye Ge to agree to participate, but he flatly refused.
Not even Old Zhou could persuade him.
Eventually, someone suggested asking Nan Feng for help.
Nan Feng was practicing singing by the riverside when she was called aside by Aqiu.
Aqiu said, “Feng girl, we lack strong men in Daping Village.
The village chief wants Ye Ge to participate in the rope pulling competition but he just won’t go.
They say Ye Ge listens to you, why don’t you try and persuade him?”
“Me?” Nan Feng only thought of Ye Ge’s usual expressionless face and his low-key demeanor, and felt it was perfectly reasonable for him to decline.
Nan Feng said, “Well…if he really doesn’t want to go, just find someone else.”
“Sigh, there’s nobody else to ask.
The rules state that only those who aren’t married can compete, and those who are can’t go.
Think about it, who else in our village is strong and unmarried other than Ye Ge?”
Aqiu blinked, “Feng girl, aren’t you afraid that Ye Ge will catch the eye of any girl during the town’s celebration and no longer want you?”
“Nonsense, he is not mine,” Nan Feng thought for a moment before saying, “Fine, I’ll go ask.
But if he refuses, then I can’t do anything about it.”
Haven’t seen Ye Ge for some days, Nan Feng was a bit excited to finally have an excuse to see him.
“Okay, you go ask him right away and tell him, even if some girl is interested in him, he can still marry you!” Aqiu began to tease Nan Feng.
“Go away, don’t talk nonsense!”
“Oh, your face is turning red!”
…
It was now evening, and Nan Feng knew Ye Ge would definitely be at home.
So, she headed straight to his house.
She reached the entrance of his courtyard and through the fence, she saw Ye Ge chopping wood.
He was still wearing his usual gown, revealing a very robust body.
A log as thick as a man’s thigh was instantly split into two under his axe.
Many men in the village accustomed to chopping wood would usually do so shirtless, Nan Feng suddenly realized that Ye Ge never took off his shirt in front of others.
Is he afraid others will see his hunchback?
Indeed, what exactly does the bulge on his hunchback look like?
Is it because of a deformation of the bone?
Or muscle deformation?
Nan Feng was lost in thought when Ye Ge, already alert, turned around.
Seeing Ye Ge’s deep eyes, Nan Feng felt her heart “skip a beat”, but then waved at Ye Ge: “Ye Ge, open the door!”
“…”
