Chapter 19: I want to sing a song for her
"You haven't been in love?" asked Liu Jingxin suspiciously.
Liu Jingxin recalled that when he first saw Tong Wenxuan, Tong Wenxuan's eyes were red and swollen, his face was haggard, and it was obvious that he had cried. At that time, Liu Jingxin suspected that Tong Wenxuan had just fallen out of love, so he sang her the healing love song "Look at me".
Could it really be a misunderstanding?
Tong Wenxuan's pretty face was flushed, and she hurriedly said, "I really haven't talked about it!"
Liu Jingxin scratched his head awkwardly and smiled, diverted the topic and asked, "Then who is the person you are talking about who is very important to you?"
Tong Wenxuan did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically: "Do you have someone who is very important to you?"
Liu Jingxin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought.
Someone very important to him? Of course, there is! And many, many people!
There are parents who gave birth to him and raised him, and every brother in the band, and he would rather pay any price than lose any of them! So he disbanded the band and sold guitars for the sake of his parents, so when he decided to reorganize Friday, he wanted to get Zhang Xun back as well, instead of finding someone to replace Zhang Xun.
Tong Wenxuan saw that Liu Jingxin was silent and did not speak, looked down at his toes, and whispered as if talking to himself: "I am a grandmother who grew up from a young age, whether I am willful, temperant or unreasonable, she is not angry, everything follows me, she always tells me that I am the person she cares about the most." ”
Speaking of this, Tong Wenxuan's voice was already a little choked, and crystal clear tears fell down her delicate chin one by one, but she only lowered her head and did not wipe it, as if she didn't want Liu Jingxin to see her fragile side.
Tong Wenxuan held back his tears very hard, adjusted his breathing a few times, raised his hand to fan his already red face, and asked softly, "Do you know Alzheimer's?"
Liu Jingxin blurted out: "Alzheimer's?"
Tong Wenxuan said angrily: "You are only senile dementia!"
Liu Jingxin smiled awkwardly, secretly connecting Tong Wenxuan's words before and after, and it was easy to guess that Tong Wenxuan's grandmother had Alzheimer's.
Although it is not very nice to say, Alzheimer's disease is indeed the equivalent of Alzheimer's disease.
Once this disease is obtained, it can only be alleviated with drugs, and it cannot be completely cured at present, and the most obvious clinical manifestation is amnesia. At first, the patient may just forget what happened recently, but as the disease becomes more severe, the patient will forget even the previous things, even who he is, until he or she completely loses the ability to think logically and cannot speak and communicate with people normally.
Tong Wenxuan was silent for a while before continuing: "My grandmother has that disease, she has forgotten where her home is, she has forgotten her name, and sometimes even my father can't recognize her. I naively thought that even if she forgot everyone, she wouldn't forget me, because I was the one she cared about the most. But ......"
Speaking of this, the tears that she finally held back burst out.
Liu Jingxin took out a tissue on the side and handed it to Tong Wenxuan, he wanted to comfort a few words, but he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only accompany him silently.
Tong Wenxuan choked up while wiping her tears: "Am I not the person she cares about the most?
"Can't she remember anything now?" asked Liu Jingxin.
Tong Wenxuan said: "She still remembers some things when she was with her grandfather, and now she often holds the portrait of her grandfather, listens to a song over and over again, and sits for a day, every time I see her like that, my heart is very uncomfortable." ”
Liu Jingxin captured a key point from this sentence and asked urgently: "Listen to a song repeatedly? Could it be "Look at me"?"
Tong Wenxuan shook his head and said: "It was sung by an American grandfather, I don't remember what that person's name was, but I knew that the song was called "Lady". ”
Liu Jingxin suddenly realized, and finally knew why Tong Wenxuan asked him to order songs that day, and why he looked like he was crying again. He was singing "Lady" to Sun Guomin in the private room at the time.
"Why does your grandmother listen to that song repeatedly?" Liu Jingxin didn't understand this, people in that era should like to listen to traditional dramas, how could they have such a strong interest in country music?
Liu Jingxin realized that there must be other stories behind this.
Tong Wenxuan explained: "My grandfather is very fond of music, and the family still has a lot of vinyl records that my grandfather used to collect. My grandfather died on my grandmother's birthday, singing that song in my grandmother's arms. ”
I see!
Liu Jingxin asked: "You asked me to learn guitar, not because you like guitar, but because you want to learn this song from me, right?"
Tong Wenxuan nodded and said, "Yes, in another week, it will be my grandmother's birthday, and it will also be my grandfather's death day." She doesn't remember me anymore, but I wanted to play that song to her that day as a birthday present for her. ”
Liu Jingxin frowned and said, "Then why didn't you say it earlier?"
Tong Wenxuan said with some grievances: "I said it." ”
Liu Jingxin thought about it for a while, and said with great certainty: "You definitely didn't say it." ”
Tong Wenxuan hurriedly said: "I really said, I asked you in the first class, when will you learn to play a song, you ignore me!"
Liu Jingxin: "......"
Okay, you win! Are you girls so tactful?
Liu Jingxin secretly muttered a few words in his heart, and then said with a look of embarrassment: "Seriously, this song is actually not difficult, but the key problem is that we only have a week in the next week, and it is estimated that you will not be able to master the chord transformation of your left hand, and it may not be realistic to play and sing on your grandmother's birthday." ”
Tong Wenxuan's eyes immediately darkened when she heard this, she lowered her head and said, "Actually, I already guessed after the first class with you." ”
Liu Jingxin suggested: "Why don't you sing with accompaniment, it is estimated that the effect is better, and if you can't sing a cappella, you can also do it." ”
Tong Wenxuan shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it." ”
It can be seen that she is still very unwilling.
At this point, the two fell silent again, and they both continued to walk aimlessly along the road with their heads down.
Liu Jingxin now knows what Tong Wenxuan's wish is, but judging from the current conditions, it is not realistic at all to successfully complete the task!
No, since the system has arranged this task, there must be a way to achieve it! But why doesn't the system give a hint?
Liu Jingxin thought for a while and suggested: "Otherwise, let's start practicing this song from tomorrow, and you will spend more time practicing in the next week, what if you succeed?"
Tong Wenxuan was stunned when she heard this, and then her eyes lit up again, and she nodded heavily: "Well, it's decided!"
