Chapter 16: Long Time No See
Yang Yi's request was made very abruptly, and the old man looked at the bronze muscles on Yang Yi's arm with a strange expression, and he was solid.
Such a guy can play the guitar?
The old man's mind came up with an incongruous picture like a cow chewing a peony......
"Well, you can try. Hu Songnan still nodded with great dignity, and did not refuse because of his prejudices.
After Yang Yi took off the guitar, he sat generously on the chair opposite the old man, rested the guitar on his right foot, gently plucked the strings, and tried the sound.
The "...... hum" is a deep and thick bass that is clearly conveyed through the resonance of the case.
Yang Yi's ears moved slightly, and his expression became a little surprised. Immediately afterward, he tried a few notes.
"Professor Hu, this guitar of yours is not extraordinary!" Yang Yi finally raised his head and said to the old man with a little surprise.
Hu Songnan was stunned, he trembled his hands, pointed to a beetle-like engraving on the back of the guitar case, and asked incredulously, "You don't recognize this logo?"
"Is it still a famous brand?" Yang Yi took a closer look and shook his head.
Of course he doesn't recognize it, the musical instrument brand of the previous life does not exist in this world, and the musical instrument brand of this life? Just kidding, he hasn't studied for a few years at all, and it's strange that the predecessor without music cells can still be recognized!
The old man almost rolled his eyes, and gasped for breath helplessly before he calmed down the depression.
"Brown_Beetle, this is a vintage guitar produced in limited quantities by an old factory in Germany in 1970!" the old man blew his beard and glared at Yang Yi and explained, "Old man, it took a lot of effort to buy it from a merchant!"
Well, listening to Hu Songnan's description, it seems to be very powerful...... It feels like the Steinway of the guitar world!
However, Yang Yi also liked to play folk guitar in his previous life, so Yang Yi did not have a deep feeling about the classical guitar, which is known as the world's three major musical instruments.
Besides, Yang Yi prefers the violin to the guitar, and that is his favorite - pouring a glass of red wine, lighting a candle, playing the violin alone, and making a pair of shadows......
A little far, Yang Yi began his performance undeniably.
When the broken guitar strings converged into a low, melodious prelude, Hu Songnan, who was looking at Yang Yi curiously, frowned slightly.
This melody?
He hasn't heard it, which is normal, after all, Hu Songnan teaches classical music, and he may not be able to do everything about pop music.
It's just that Yang Yi's performance has given him a different feeling.
It's beautiful, it's smooth, it's not like a nobody's game!
I saw that the old man leaned forward slightly, and he listened carefully.
The faint melancholy melody lasted for more than ten seconds, and gradually kicked off, and Yang Yi gently hooked the strings with his fingers and began to sing.
"I have come to your city,
Walk the way you came......"
Yes, it's Eason's long time no see, a song that Yang Yi liked very much in his previous life!
Of course, Yang Yi's voice can't be like Eason, when it is low, it can still maintain a very empty magnetism.
However, Yang Yi's voice texture is not bad, his bass is very rich, and he has an inexplicable influence, which spreads that sad mood in the hearts of listeners.
"Imagine the days without me,
How lonely will you be......"
The melody in front was still very flat, but the old man listened to it very carefully.
Finally, the mood of the song ushered in a small explosion.
"Take the picture you gave,
The familiar street,
It's just that without your picture,
We can't get back to that day......"
Yang Yi sang very affectionately, and unconsciously, he brought the original Yang Yi and faced Murphy's complex emotions.
However, he didn't notice that the old man sitting across from him was trembling slightly.
The lyrics of "It's just that there is no picture of you" seem to make the old man's nostalgic memory come out all at once.
"Will you show up out of nowhere,
In the corner coffee shop,
I will smile and wave hello,
I'm sitting and chatting with you......"
Yang Yi finally sang the origin of the name of his coffee shop, but this did not attract the old man's attention.
The lyrics that touched him from time to time were so sad that they seemed to dye the air blue, and the old man's eyes moistened.
In the haze, he seemed to see his wife in front of the flower garden that had not yet withered, raising her head, waving to him tremblingly, and smiling at him.
"How I want to meet you,
Look at how you've changed recently,
No longer to talk about the past, just greetings,
Say a word to you, just a word,
Long time no see......"
Yang Yi didn't understand love in his previous life, and he didn't understand his predecessor in this life, but I don't know why, when he sang this song, his mind was full of Murphy's back.
I don't know why, he sang this song emotionally, especially the second time, he almost burst into tears when he sang it, and he almost couldn't extricate himself.
NND, he didn't want to say "long time no see" to anyone!
If you want to say that there is, then Xixi is barely one, but she is not emotional!
The soul is faint, how did you become so sentimental?
Yang Yi hung his head and closed his eyes, and he was still plucking the strings in his hand, and finished playing the faint finale, but he despised himself fiercely in his heart.
When Yang Yi raised his head, he saw an old man rubbing his eyes in a panic and sorting out his emotions.
Unlike Yang Yi, who has mood swings but quickly becomes like no one, the old man is not so easy to hide his sadness, but he loves face a little, maybe because as a teacher, he is used to maintaining his dignity, right?
"Ahem!" Hu Songnan looked at Yang Yi awkwardly, his voice was slightly hoarse, and the impact of emotional fluctuations was still there, "Xiaoyou's song is written sincerely, the melody is simple but deep, and the words are plain but affectionate, why haven't I seen it come out before?"
The old man was changing the topic, he was afraid that his vulnerability would be exposed by Yang Yi.
Yang Yi could see that he didn't break it, but just followed the old man's words and said: "Because I haven't planned to do this yet, this song is written for me, my first love, there are too many negative emotions......"
Yang Yi said that the first love is of course referring to Murphy, although it is an excuse to cover up, but obviously the predecessor has prejudices against this Murphy, but he still has feelings in his heart, so it is written for Murphy, and there is nothing wrong with it.
It's just that Murphy's identity is more special, Yang Yi feels that it is not appropriate to say that Murphy is a girlfriend and wife, and the ex-wife is even more ridiculous, so it is better to use the word first love to position.
At least including the previous life, Murphy was the first woman Yang Yi liked!
However, the old man was not very satisfied with Yang Yi, he blew his beard and glared and said: "How can this be said to be a negative emotion? This is called deep affection! What are you doing to belittle your love for the person you love?"
"From your song, you can hear that you still have deep feelings for your first love, even if you emphasize it again and again, it's just a greeting, just a long time no see, but you ask yourself, do you still hope that she can come back, or do you hope you can start again?"
In Yang Yi's stunned expression, the old man criticized Yang Yi with hatred, from his concept of love, to the lyrics of this song, hiding emotions, and training for half an hour without stopping!
The old man's original intention was to hope that Yang Yi would be able to pursue his former relationship without regrets.
However, Yang Yi could only nod with a wry smile.
What the hell is a love affair! This so-called first love, I'm afraid it's just unrequited love. This is really a lie made up by myself, and I can only accept it head-on.
However, unexpectedly, Yang Yi's "well-behaved" appearance was recognized by the old man.
"I've decided, I'll rent my house to you. The old man patted Yang Yi's shoulder a little sadly and said, "However, promise me, you must take it well." ”
Hu Songnan's eyes were a little gloomy, mixed with reluctance, but also with obvious firmness.
Yang Yi didn't know that his song once made the old man shake his decision to leave.
However, the old man finally figured out that his wife was not gone, she was just watching herself from afar, waiting for her reunion after a hundred years.
Maybe Yang Yi's appearance is also her secret arrangement, right?
My wife still hopes that I can live a happy old age with my children and grandchildren.
Then, please ask the person designated by this wife to take good care of this small building that carries the past!
It's been eight years, long time no see......
How many more years will we be able to see each other again? maybe, soon......
