Chapter 75: The Cultural Generation Gap
After arranging everything in place, Liu Jingxin turned his head to look out the window and found that it was already three poles up.
Liu Jingxin didn't continue to rub on the bed, quickly got up and washed, then changed into sportswear and went out to start his morning exercise.
At this time, the old people in the park have dispersed.
After running around the lake as usual for a few laps, Liu Jingxin began to walk slowly to adjust.
After these days of exercise, although he can't outrun the old man in the hurdle vest now, his physical fitness has improved qualitatively, and he will no longer be buckled by the old man.
After exercising for a while, Liu Jingxin believes that he will definitely be able to run past the old man, and maybe he will be able to buckle the old man's circle and regain his dignity as a young man!
With a hot sweat, Liu Jingxin walked slowly to adjust his breathing and state, and then climbed the path as usual to the small pavilion on the hill.
To Liu Jingxin's surprise, the two uncles who usually talked to him did not leave, and were sitting in the gazebo with fans and chatting.
Through these days of contact, Liu Jingxin has become quite familiar with these two uncles, and already knows that the bald uncle is surnamed Gao, and the uncle who likes to wear sunhats is surnamed Yu, these two people are quite obsessed with Peking Opera, and they are still a little famous among the ticket holders (opera enthusiasts) in this area.
"The two uncles haven't come back yet?" Liu Jingxin greeted with a smile.
Uncle Yu put down the fan, unscrewed the lid of the space cup, blew the wolfberry floating on the water and asked, "Xiao Liu, you came late enough today!"
Liu Jingxin said: "I was delayed by some things. What's the matter, miss me?"
Uncle Gao smiled: "No, I thought something happened to you." β
Liu Jingxin came to the stone table, put the thermos cup on the stone table, raised his eyebrows and said, "What can happen to me?" You go on, I'm practicing my voice. β
Uncle Yu asked, "Xiao Liu, what do you do, don't you have to go to work during the day?"
Liu Jingxin smiled and asked, "If I say that I am a singer, do you believe me?"
"Singer?" Uncle Yu was stunned, pouted and said in disbelief: "What have you sung?"
Liu Jingxin estimated that even if he told the other party that he was playing in a band, people might not be able to understand and agree, so he smiled faintly and said, "Keep it secret!"
With that, he stood aside and began his "Ahhh......h
After quitting smoking and drinking, and continuing to train during this time, Liu Jingxin felt that the biggest change in his body was that his lung capacity had improved, his breath had stabilized a lot, and his vocal range was even half a degree higher than before. And not only that, in the past, when he sang high notes, his voice would float so much that he often couldn't drag the length of the sound, but now he can drag the tone very steadily for a long time, and he can't stop at all.
Because the two uncles were watching from the side today, they didn't confront Liu Jingxin, which made Liu Jingxin feel very awkward, so he stopped after practicing for a while, wanting to wait for the two masters to leave before continuing to practice.
However, these two uncles not only had no intention of leaving, but instead pulled Liu Jingxin to chat.
Uncle Yu asked: "Xiao Liu, come and sit down, let me ask you, what do young people like to listen to now?"
Liu Jingxin was asked so thoughtlessly, he felt a little confused, and he didn't understand what the other party meant by asking for a while.
Uncle Gao added next to him: "What Lao Yu wants to ask is, is no one listening to Peking Opera now?"
Liu Jingxin said: "I don't know much about this, everyone's growth environment is different, and their preferences are different." β
Uncle Yu asked expectantly, "Do you listen to Peking Opera?"
Liu Jingxin scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and smiled: "I've heard a little bit." β
Uncle Gao hurriedly asked, "How much do you know about Peking Opera?"
Liu Jingxin was even more embarrassed, he thought about it and replied, "I know Mei Lanfang." β
As one of the four famous Dans, as a famous actor who promoted Peking Opera overseas, Mr. Mei Lanfang, who has a clear beard and strong national integrity, has become the business card of Peking Opera, and everyone knows and knows it.
But if you only know Mei Lanfang, it is really equivalent to knowing nothing about Peking Opera.
Uncle Yu said angrily: "Why are the things left by the ancestors so unpopular now? What are these young people listening to now, they can't listen to them at all! A good inheritance, maybe it will be broken one day!"
Uncle Gao hurriedly explained beside him: "Xiao Liu, Lao Yu is not aimed at you. He usually doesn't have any other hobbies, he likes to listen to opera and sing, but his granddaughter always talks about him at home, and the grandparents quarrel a lot about it. So, he's a little extreme. β
Uncle Yu immediately raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Who do you say is extreme? You are extreme! Your whole family is extreme!" He was angry not because Uncle Gao said that he was extreme, but because Uncle Gao said his private affairs, which made him feel a little faceless.
Liu Jingxin waved his hand, indicating that he could understand and not get in the way.
Many older generations want their descendants to like what they are passionate about, and the younger generations like to share what they like with the older generation.
Liu Jingxin used to be like this, learning a new song, and when he couldn't find anyone to be an audience, he played it to his grandmother. His grandmother didn't understand, and she didn't seem to like it very much, but every time she smiled and said it was good, and every time it made him feel that her grandmother was perfunctory to him, which made him very annoyed.
It is precisely because of these experiences that Liu Jingxin can understand Uncle Yu's mood at this time.
There is a cultural generation gap between Uncle Yu and his granddaughter, and it can even be said to be a chasm, whether they like Peking Opera or not is just a microcosm, it is conceivable that there must be a lot of contradictions between their grandparents and grandchildren in life due to mutual incomprehension.
Uncle Yu was still indignant and said, "Xiao Liu, if you have the opportunity to see my granddaughter in the future, you must tell more about her." I don't need her to like Peking Opera, but she can't help but let me like it! I've liked things for decades, how can I say that I will lose them?"
Liu Jingxin kindly persuaded: "Okay, uncle, you have to call her out, and I will educate her well." Don't be angry, it's not worth it to be angry!"
γDing!Detected that the host has received a wish request, triggering a limited-time task (15 days 0:00:00)γ
[Limited time mission: Yu Changshun's wish (14 days, 23:59:59)]
Note: Completing time-limited tasks can unlock themed original quests, which can help the host earn a lot of recognition, limited-time quests will randomly provide hints according to the host's completion progress, and if the quest is not completed at the end of the time, it will be judged as a mission failure. γ
This system prompt appeared very suddenly, which caught Liu Jingxin completely off guard.
Old man Yu just casually said an angry remark! I just casually persuaded me! Why did I trigger the wish task? If I really ran to educate other people's granddaughters, this old man Yu would not beat me up?
Liu Jingxin's expression was very exciting at this time, and he really wanted to slap himself in the mouth. How can this mouth owe so much?
Seeing Liu Jingxin's ugly smiling expression, Uncle Yu and Uncle Gao were a little surprised, and hurriedly asked Liu Jingxin what was wrong.
Liu Jingxin naturally couldn't tell the truth, so he could only make up a random reason: "Stomach hurts!"
He had a stomach ache? He was so angry with this broken system that he had a headache!
