Chapter 107: Dry Kiss

Sunlight poured into the room through the gauze curtains, and an elegant grand grand piano stood quietly in the room, from where the moving music came.

Jian'er walked over gently, for fear of disturbing the people who were intoxicated with music.

Under the sparkling sun, a lady in a snow-white dress is sitting elegantly in front of the piano, her slightly undulating arms raised and falling, and her slender fingertips gently caress the keys, bringing up a string of moving notes.

Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" was immediately audible, and this was one of the few Beethoven's pieces that Jane liked, although Beethoven's music was a masterpiece of classical music, and at the same time opened up the road of music in the Romantic period, which played a pivotal role in the development of world music, and was revered as "the saint of music" by later generations. But Jane didn't like his music very much, because Beethoven's music was too emotionally conflicting, which was not to Jane's liking. But this "Moonlight Sonata" is an exception.

In particular, the first musical chapter of the "Moonlight Sonata" is extremely rich in emotional expressions, with meditative tenderness, sad chanting, and dark premonitions. Although there are few changes in the accompaniment, theme and dynamics, there are still guò harmonies, changes in pitch and rhythm, delicately expressing the fluctuations of the author's heartstrings. It has a dream-like improvisational quality, delicate and quiet, with a hint of melancholy. Although it is the simplest of the three musicals of the Moonlight Sonata in terms of technique, it is Jane's favorite. In order to better appreciate this favorite tune, Jian Er also went to check the background information related to this "Moonlight Sonata".

The Moonlight Sonata is not called that from the beginning, it was composed by Beethoven in 1801, also known as the Piano Sonata No. 14 and #c小调奏鸣曲, which Beethoven dedicated to his first lover, Juliette Gichardi. At that time, they had broken up, and Beethoven suffered greatly from the loss of love and ear problems, and this piece was composed under these circumstances. It was named "Moonlight Sonata" because the German poet Lershtab said after listening to it with first pleasure, "This piece reminds me of the moonlight on Lake Lucerne in Switzerland", and the publisher named the work "Moonlight".

Beethoven himself titled the piece "Fantasic Sonata" because it is full of the author's fantasy and exploration of production, and it is also full of freedom and improvisation in the structure of the work. And this sonata also has a moving story.

Legend has it that one autumn Beethoven traveled to a small town on the Rhine. One night, as he was walking along a quiet path, he heard the staccato sound of the piano coming from a hut, playing his tune.

As Beethoven approached the hut, the piano suddenly stopped, and someone was talking in the room. One of the girls said, "How difficult it is to play! I have only heard people play it a few times, and I can't remember how to play it, but it would be nice to hear how Beethoven played it himself!" and a man said, "Yes, but the tickets to the concert are too expensive, and we are too poor." The girl said, "Don't be sad, brother, I'll just talk about it." ”

When Beethoven heard this, he pushed open the door and walked in gently. There was a candle lit in the hut. In the faint candlelight, the man was making leather shoes. There was an old piano in front of the window, and in front of it sat a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl with a very beautiful face, but her eyes were blind.

When the cobbler saw a stranger coming in, he stood up and asked, "Sir, who are you looking for?" Beethoven said, "No, I have come to play a piece for this girl." ”

The girl hurriedly stood up and gave up her seat. Beethoven sat down at the piano and played the piece that the blind girl had just played. The blind girl was fascinated by the song, and when she had finished the song, she said excitedly, "How skillful you play, how deep your feelings! You, you are Monsieur Beethoven, aren't you?"

Beethoven did not answer, but asked the blind girl, "Do you like to hear it?" and I will play it to you again. ”

A gust of wind blew out the candle. The moonlight shines into the window, and the qiē in the thatched hut seems to be covered with a silver veil, which looks particularly quiet. Beethoven looked at the brother and sister standing beside him, and pressed the keys in the quiet moonlight.

The cobbler listened quietly. He seemed to be facing the sea, and the moonlight was rising from where the water and the sky met. The microwave sea was filled with silver light in an instant. The moon rose higher and higher, passing through the veils of light veils. Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the sea, and huge waves rolled up. The moonlit waves rushed towards the shore one after another...... The cobbler looked at his sister, and the moonlight shone on her tranquil face, and on her wide open eyes, and she seemed to see, to see a scene she had never seen before, a rough sea under the moonlight.

The brother and sister were intoxicated by the beautiful sound of the piano. By the time they woke up, Beethoven had already left the hut. He rushed back to the inn and spent the night recording the song he had just played, "Moonlight Song".

Jian Er sat lightly on the stool beside her, her hands lightly folded on her lap, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she enjoyed her favorite music with a smile.

When the music slowly dissipated, Jane couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

When Jian Er opened her eyes, she saw Jinxiu's mother looking at her with a smile, Jian Er blushed, and felt very embarrassed about her gaffe.

Seeing Jian'er like this, Jinxiu's mother is happy, this girl is still so straightforward and cute. She also heard her daughter say recently, Jian'er has been doing good things during this time, and she has made several windfalls one after another, she is still a little worried that this girl can't bear it, and her heart will float up, now it seems that she is worried in vain, this girl is still the same, no wonder she likes her.

Looking at Jinxiu's mother's appearance that seemed to be smiling, Jian Er couldn't help but blushed and shouted in protest: "Aunt Yang!"

This screamed so that Jinxiu's mother couldn't help laughing anymore. Laughing straight at her, Jian Er's face slowly turned red from her cheeks to the roots of her ears.

However, Jian'er's behavior made Jinxiu's mother make up her mind, and even though her old man was also there, she simply mentioned her thoughts.

Thinking of this, Jinxiu's mother couldn't help but say directly: "Little Jane, what do you think of your aunt's treatment of you?"

"Very good!" Hearing Jinxiu's mother's question, Jian Er couldn't help but mention 120,000 points of caution, her waist was also straightened, and this sitting posture also changed from the original free and relaxed to a standard ceremonial sitting posture, and her face also subconsciously brought on the standard ladylike smile that Lu Wang's intensive training had finally cultivated during this period of intensive training.

In fact, you really can't blame Jian'er for reacting so much, because in Jian'er's experience, this is really not a good word, because every time Jinxiu's mother said this sentence before, the next sentence was usually "Since Auntie is so good to you, it's okay for Auntie to ask you for a little favor?" and then Jian'er became the sandwich biscuit between the two mothers and daughters.

But Jian'er really can't say with her conscience that Jinxiu's mother is not good to her, because if it weren't for Jian'er's clear understanding that Jinxiu's mother is not her own mother, anyone would say that she is a good mother who loves her daughter very much with Jinxiu's attitude and care for Jian'er. In Jinxiu's mother, Jian'er can feel the deep maternal love, and at the same time, she also feels a kind of sisterly affection in Jinxiu. So although this "sandwich biscuit" is really not good, Jian Er still admits this bad errand.

Looking at Jian'er like this, Jinxiu's mother couldn't help but be secretly happy, she really couldn't blame her for her bad taste, because every time she said this, Jian'er's expression was so loving, especially when Jian'er turned into a "lubricating oil" and turned on both sides, the mother and daughter couldn't help but be happy. In fact, don't look at Jinxiu's mother as a tender little woman in the Jiangnan water town, in fact, the temperament of Jinxiu's mother and daughter is very similar, and they can only be described in one word, that is, "stubborn"! Although I know that the other party is for my own good, and this is for my own sake, but understanding is one thing, and it is impossible to do it.

Every time the two have different opinions, in the words of Jinxiu's father, it is "the two stubborn cows in the family are on the right side again". At this time, Jane's role as "lubricat" is very important, because she made a good buffer for the two mothers and daughters in the middle, if it weren't for her such an important role, the two mothers and daughters would have been inseparable.

What? Why don't you ask Daddy Jinxiu why he doesn't play the role of "lubricant"? Just kidding! For a man who is a modern standard "wife slave" and "female control," he really can't afford to hurt himself when he faces the contradiction between the two most important women in his life. As long as he walks up, no matter who says anything, as a "wife slave" and "female control", he will only say "yes!", which leads to the final result not only did not play a role in alleviating the conflict, but became a big target for the two mothers and daughters, provoking the fire of the two even higher.

"Don't worry! Seeing Jian'er like this, Jinxiu's mother couldn't help but be happy.

Showing a dry smile, Jian Er secretly breathed a sigh of relief, isn't it good!

Looking at Jian Er's eyes suddenly softened, Jinxiu's mother spoke: "Girl Jane, today is Auntie's birthday, can Auntie take a birthday gift from you?"

Birthday gifts? Of course that's no problem! Pulling the zipper of her bag, Jane wanted to pull out the gift she had prepared a long time ago. I believe that this gift will be liked by Jinxiu's mother.

At this time, a hand pressed on Jian Er's hand, Jian Er raised her head, and looked at Jinxiu's mother suspiciously, Didn't she ask for a gift? Why did you stop her from letting her take it?

Shaking her head slightly, Jinxiu's mother said, "This gift only needs to be said by you." Stretching out her hand, Jinxiu's mother gently hung Jian'er's hair scattered on the side of her cheek behind her ear, "Call me Mom!"

Jian'er opened her mouth wide, she couldn't believe what she heard! Actually, Jinxiu's mother had said this before, but Jian'er had always listened to it as a joke, after all, what her best friend's mother said was usually a funny joke about her daughter. Jian'er has never taken it seriously, she didn't expect that Jinxiu's mother would mention it to her so cautiously at this time this time, this time Jian'er really didn't take this sentence as a joke anymore.

"Auntie, your ......" Jian'er didn't know how to express her feelings in words.

"Yes, Auntie asked you cautiously this time, are you willing to be Auntie's daughter?" Jinxiu's mother nodded, once again confirming that Jian'er had heard correctly, and she had not said it wrong. RS
