Chapter 48 - I can Do That

While they all were sitting on the couch and chair, Zhen Lu and Lan Yue came joined them.

When the mother and son came to sit with them, Zhen Lu looked at Ren Xuan with curious eyes to know about this new person and member of their village and seeing this Hu Wen step forward and said,

Hu Wen: "Lu'er this young man over here is the Big Brother of Luan'er, Ren Xuan who has arrived in our village today."

Zhen Lu: "Hello Mr. Xuan nice to meet. I am Zhen Lu, Lan Xiang's wife and Lan Yue's mother."

Ren Xuan: "Hello Mrs. Xiang nice to meet you. I am Ren Luan's Big Brother Ren Xuan."

Zhen Lu: "I have heard about you from my husband and son."

Ren Xuan: "Really thank you so much. By the way what you have heard about me ?"

Zhen Lu: "I have heard how you have managed to live yourself and how you have raised your little brother all by yourself."

Ren Xuan: "Well that's how it is in life for ourselves. In this hard hitting struggling world I only have my brother and he only have me to rely on each other. At that time if I hadn't stepped up in this world then probably we both shouldn't have been here."

Hearing his words all the people present in that room became quit and they also agreed to his words inwardly.

At that moment the things which Han Gong had spoke just showed the reality which everyone faces in this harsh world. Because ultimately this world just remembers and asks only the people who have done something in their lives.

Those who haven't achieved anything or done anything in their life just gets forgotten by the world.

Just as they all were having a deep thinking on Ren Xuan's words, Lan Xiang entered the living room holding some starters in his hands with some fruit juices with him.

Then placed the starters and juices on the table of the living room and then he served everyone the food and drinks.

After he had served everyone, he also joined all of them and then he also had some talk with all of them.

As they all were having a good conversation with each other, at that moment someone knocked on the door of Lan Xiang's house.

"KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK"

Hearing the knocking sound Lan Yue went to the door to open it and when he opened the door he saw that all of his friends were at his doorstep and they were the ones who had knocked on the door.

Then seeing his friends he remembered that he had invited his friends to his house to show them the performance of A'Xin as the female lead.

After remembering the reason the for which his friends had come to his home, Lan Yue welcomed then to his house.

Then they all entered their house and went to living room and after arriving at the living room they saw that Chief Wang, Hu Wen and the Ren Brothers were there.

Then they all greeted them and they also greeted them back.

Then seeing the kids coming to his house at that hour, Lan Xiang asked them the reason for which they have gathered at his home.

Just as they were about to answer Lan Xiang's question, Lan Yue step forward and said,

Lan Xiang: "Kids what is the matter why are you here at this hour ?"

Lan Yue: "Father they are all here because I have told them to come here at this hour."

Lan Xiang: "Why did you invite them son ?"

Lan Yue: "Father the reason for which I have invited them here is to practise for our play which we all going to perform at the village festival."

Lan Xiang: "Oh you all are taking part in the play for the festival and you have to practise now. Great going son and you all too kids👍."

Lan Yue: "Thank you so much father."

All the kids: "Thank you Uncle Xiang."

After that Sito Ran asked Lan Yue,

Sito Ran: "Where are we going to practise Big Brother ?"

Hearing his question Lan Yue remained silent for a few seconds as he thought something in his mind, "Everyone is here and it is a good opportunity which I could use."

After thinking for some seconds he opened his mouth and said,

Lan Yue: "Let's practise for our play in our front garden."

Hearing him everyone agreed to his idea as it will give them the feel of acting in the open space which will help them in their understanding of the real play stage which will be prepared for the village festival.

Then just as they all were about to leave the living room to go out to the garden, Lan Yue said something really unexpected.

Lan Yue: "Father, mother and everyone please come with us and watch our practise and give us your feedbacks for our performances."

Hearing his request all of his friends were really surprised and the elders were also surprised.

Then they all looked at each other and then Lan Xiang told them,

Lan Xiang: "The dinner is ready and there is nothing more to make and we still have time before the dinner so let's go watch the practise of our kids."

Hearing Lan Xiang everyone else thought about his idea for few seconds and then they all nodded in agreement with his idea.

And then all of them went outside to the garden of Lan Xiang. Then after reaching in the garden the elders took their seats on the wooden bench placed on the garden.

Then after all of the elders sat down on the wooden bench Lan Yue and his started their play practise.

At first some scenes were involved Lan Yue and his friends. They all started their play practise and they practised it for about thirty minutes.

They all have performed really well and all the elders applauded 👏👏 for their performance.

But the next scene was only meant for the male lead and female lead of the play. The male lead which is being played by Lan Yue was present their but the female lead which is being played by Lin Wen was not present their.

This created a little tension for the kids who didn't know what to do next. So for that they were thinking of stoppingbthe practise for the day.

Seeing the kids in deep thinking Zhen Lu went to them and asked them the matter for their sudden silence.

Zhen Lu: "Kids what happened? Why you all have stopped the play rehearsals in between ? Is everything alright ?"

Then after hearing her care filled questions Shen Kai answered her and said,

Shen Kai: "Aunt Lu we all are fine and there is no problem with us. But the reason for which we have not started our play rehearsals yet is because the next which we have to rehearse is only for the male lead and female lead and we don't have any part in it. We have Yue'er who is playing the maleblead but we don't have female lead with us now. So we are thinking to stop the rehearsal here for today."

Zhen Lu: "Hmn, I think what you all have decided the right think to do now."

After hearing these words from Zhen Lu they all have decided to stop the rehearsals now but one of them had a different plan on his mind.

And that person found the situation to be quite appropriate for him to execute his plan nicely and smoothly.

So with this thinking in his mind that person went near his friends and said,

Lan Yue: "Friends why are you all so sad and tense ?"

Shen Kai: "Yue'er you already know the reason for which we are tense."

Lan Yue: "I know thr problem but it shouldn't be a problem for us now."

Shen Kai: "What do you mean by that Yue'er?"

Lan Yue: "It means that the solution for our problem is already here."

Shen Kai: "is Lin Wen here ?"

Lan Yue: "No she is not here but someone else is here who can act in her place."

Zhen Lu: "Yue'er whom are you referring to ?"

Lan Yue: "Mother I am talking about A'Xin."

Hearing A'Xin's name everyone became really surprised including A'Xin herself.

Then Lan Yue explained why he named A'Xin for their rehearsal.

Lan Yue: "As A'Xin has been given the responsibility to help every actors who have taken part in the play with their dialogues. She has everyone's dialogues with her and she even memorised every dialogues of the female lead and we also practised together yesterday night."

Hearing his explanation all of his friends and Zhen Lu csme to understand.what he meant by that as all of his friends remembered that Lan Yue had already told them about the fact that they both have rehearsed before.

Then they all turn to A'Xin for help and told her to act with Lan Yue to finish their rehearsal. At first she didn't wanted to do it but after Zhen Lu insisted her and all of her friends also insisted her and then she agreed to do it.

Then both she and Lan Yue went in front of everyone and started to perform their part. From the start of their act to the finish they showed a great performance which just left everyone who was watching the rehearsal in complete awe for them.

Chief Wang who was seeing his granddaughter to act after so many years just got emotional and happy for her because she is just living her dream of acting in front of everyone.

After they both ended their part of the play in the rehearsals everyone just clapped for them with utter respect for their acting.

Then all kids gathered in front of their elders and bowed in front of them and told that they have ended their play and everyone just praised them with their kind words.

Then after the kids ended their rehearsals Lan Xiang told them to stay for the dinner but they refused saying that their parents were waiting for them and they should return to their home now.

But still Lan Xiang insisted them to eat some starters and fruit juices before they go their home to which all of them agreed.

After seeing that the kids have agreed to his request Lan Xiang went inside his home and then went to the kitchen and get the snacks and drinks for them.

After that he returned with the food with him and then after reaching garden he he gave the kids their food and they started to consume the foods they got.

Just as the kids were having their food, Hu Wen suddenly asked something to Lan Xiang.

Hu Wen: "Xiang'er have you talked with your friend for about the preparation for the fireworks show ?"

Lan Xiang: "Uncle Wen I have tried his number many times but he is not answering my calls. I don't know what should I do next."

Hu Wen: "In that case if you don't mind I want to suggest something for this matter but of course if Chief Wang gives me the permission."

Hearing his worrds Chief Wang thought about it for few seconds and then he said,

Chief Wang: "Go ahead Hu Wen and tell us your suggestion."

Lan Xiang: "Yes Uncle Wen please tell us your suggestion."

Hu Wen: "If you all don't mind then I want to suggest Mr. Ren Xuan the manager of the biggest fireworks company of Sun city to do this work."

Hearing Hu Wen's words everyone looked at Ren Xuan with questionable eyes and then seeing their gazes on him Ren Xuan cleared his throat and said.

Ren Xuan: "What Uncle Wen said about me correct. I do work at the biggest fireworks company of Sun cityand if you all want I can arrange the fireworks show for your village only if Chief Wang gives me permission for it."

Hearing the answer of Ren Xuan everyone had great expectation in their eyes and they all looked at him as they all wanted to hear the positive answer.

Seeing all of this Chief Wang sighed heavily and then he said,

Chief Wang: "Xuan'er I will give you permission to arrange for the fireworks show only on one condition."

Ren Xuan: "Tell me Chief Wang what is your condition if it is in my reach then I will surely fulfill it."

Chief Wang: "If you can also arrange the decorations of our village for the annual festival then I will give my permission for the fireworks show preparation to you."

Ren Xuan: "Sure Chief Wang I can Do That without any problem."

Chief Wang: "Then you have my permission to do both the things for this year's annual village festival."
