preparations for a further feast |
text: |
In Dzeam-ang's house, or rather that of his older brother where he lives, several girls were gathered and were stomping millet with great energy. A little feast will take place in the evening like the one I seen three days ago. A neighbour of Dzeam-ang, the gaonbura Melo of the Bala morung, was married at first to Shui-dzing from the Au-kheang morung. After the divorce which came quickly, she returned to the house of her father taking with her Melo's little son Lo-meng. When Lo-meng is old enough to sleep in the morung he will enter the Bala morung and will probably eat with his father. |
