Chapter 3 Lao Tzu does not sell

Nowadays, Xu Xunsheng's life is very regular. Most of the children come to class on weekends or in the evening, and during the day they compose music, practice the piano, and plant flowers and plants. Sometimes I would go up to the mountains to pick some fruits and tea, and sometimes I would take on some performances to earn extra money. The income is not high or low, but it is enough to make her live comfortably.

There are also college classmates who mention her and will say: Xu Xunsheng, she has courage and lives a life that everyone yearns for.

Some people also said: Xu Xunsheng's professional courses in college are so good, but he is a little unmotivated.

Xu Xunsheng laughed it all.

Her parents didn't care at all, and after paying her a down payment on the house, they let her live a free life. Sometimes her father called her and asked her about her experience in growing flowers. The two fathers and daughters could discuss on the phone for a long time, until their mother urged on the other end: "The food is cold!" by the way, he grabbed the phone and told Xu Xunsheng a few words, be sure to live a down-to-earth life, work hard, and not let go of professional improvement. At that time, Xu Xunsheng leaned on the rocking chair in the studio, reaching out to touch the sun, and slowly promised one by one.

After renting out the training room, the Sunrise Band didn't come to train right away, and Xu Xunsheng didn't care too much. The following weekend, one of her guqin students was going to participate in the school art show, and the parents wanted her to come to the scene to guide and encourage. Xu Xunsheng naturally agreed, and did not ask for any expenses.

The elementary school show is held in a large square by the river. When Xu Xunsheng arrived, he saw students and parents who were pressed by the black pressure everywhere. A stage was set up in front of them, and a group of children were singing and dancing, and the songs were still quite pop music. Xu Xunsheng stood in the back, looked at it for a while, sneered, and felt that the children were very energetic and cute.

Her student performances were arranged in a relatively later order, and when she saw Xu Xunsheng arrive, the children were very happy and the parents were also satisfied. Xu Xunsheng squatted down, talked to the child for a while, encouraged her, and pointed out the mistakes she usually likes to make. The child was full of promises, and when he came on the field, the whole person was majestic and high-spirited.

The child also performed very well and won a second prize in the end. The parents happily took their children away, Xu Xunsheng watched the performance for a while idlely, and saw that the show was over, and all the parents and children almost instantly faded like a tide, leaving only an empty stage and a square with some garbage. There are also staff members who are starting to move away from equipment, chairs, and so on.

Xu Xunsheng raised her head and looked at the sunshine by the river, she squinted for a while, turned around and walked in the direction of home, picked up a bag from the ground by the way, and picked up the garbage when she saw it.

After walking for a while, he was bending down to pick up two drink bottles, and several staff members walked by, dragging a row of plastic chairs. Xu Xunsheng immediately took two steps back to make way for them. But I heard an unhurried, clear and bright voice say, "Have you always been so idle?"

This voice, those who have heard it once, will never forget it in their lives.

Xu Xunsheng raised his head and saw that Cen Ye was only wearing a T-shirt, slacks underneath, and all of them were black. The middle part of the head is still so casually placed, and the eyes are lazy and bright, as if hiding the winter sun. As he spoke, a mist immediately erupted from his face.

Xu Xunsheng looked at his exposed arms and was a little surprised: "Aren't you cold?"

Cen Ye looked at her dressed like a dumpling, but it was still a fresh and refined dumpling, he couldn't help laughing, holding the row of plastic chairs in his hand, and said, "Work, cold fart." ”

Xu Xunsheng was a little uncomfortable with his speaking habits, but he didn't say anything, turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw a few people looking like his band mates, also moving things in front.

"What are you doing?" Cen Ye stared at the garbage bag in her hand.

Xu Xunsheng also looked down and said, "Anyway, I'm idle." ”

Cen Ye nodded: "That saves us trouble, and we will have to clean up later." ”

Xu Xunsheng asked calmly: "You work during the day, is this what you do?"

Cen Ye stretched out his long arm, pulled a chair from the side, folded it, and replied casually: "It's not all, it's not all about odd jobs." ”

"Oh. Xu Xunsheng didn't have anything to talk to him about, so he stood sideways and asked him to go first. Cen Ye pushed the chairs piled up like a hill, and didn't look at her: "Let's go." ”

Xu Xunsheng: "Goodbye." ”

Before the words fell, someone ran over, it was Zhang Tianyao. Like Cen Ye, he only took off his T-shirt, and his long hair was tied back today, but his eyebrows and eyes were clean and handsome.

"Xu Xunsheng!" Zhang Tianyao looked very surprised, and suddenly stood in front of Cen Ye, between the two of them. Zhang Tianyao asked, "Why are you here?"

Xu Xunsheng explained why he was here, and Cen Ye, who had been silent, suddenly interjected: "When I saw her, she was picking up garbage on the ground one by one. Both boys laughed, and Xu Xunsheng didn't know what they were laughing at. Zhang Tianyao gave her a thumbs up: "Convinced, you are really a god!"

Xu Xunsheng thought about it, smiled, and saw that the two big boys were still clubbing in front of him, so he kindly said, "Be careful not to catch a cold." Zhang Tianyao replied: "No, it's too underestimating us." Looking for this job, Ono also said that if you want to exercise and engage in music, you must have a good body, especially the lead singer and lead guitarist. Isn't it?"

Cen Ye let out a soft "um".

Xu Xunsheng was a little surprised, but he didn't expect this kid to think about it for the long term.

She waved her hand, "Goodbye then." Zhang Tianyao spoke again: "Xu Xunsheng, we have a performance at the black coffee bar next Wednesday night, do you want to come and watch?"

Xu Xunsheng was stunned for a moment, and Zhang Tianyao looked at her expectantly.

Cen Ye laughed in a low voice and said, "What did you invite her to do? Does she look like she likes people underground? You~Isn't she Beethoven!"

Zhang Tianyao was a little disappointed, but he still didn't give up, and said, "Come on, you can be regarded as sponsoring us now." Ono, I, Teruko, and Tanzi will all go. We are guest performers and can have a couple of free tickets and you can also bring your friends to ......"

Under the sun, the two boys unexpectedly saw her nodding her head slightly, her eyes slightly bent, and the light flowed, as if she was smiling.

"Okay, I'll go. She said, "I don't need you to send the tickets, I'll buy them myself and cheer you on." After all...... I don't just listen to Beethoven. ”

Cen Ye was stunned, but Zhang Tianyao laughed, patted Cen Ye's head, and then said: "Wow, I'm not mistaken, you are really a tasteful woman!

Xu Xunsheng walked slowly, just as she came slowly. The two boys continued to work. Don't look at the chat with Xu Xunsheng, the two of them seem to be extremely relaxed and presumptuous, but in fact, they have been moving and unloading all day, and they are already sore and exhausted. dragging the body like an old scalper, it is easy to finish the rest of the work. Others drove all the equipment away, and the two of them put on their coats, and they didn't bother to wear sweaters, and they sat by a flower bed in the square, looking at the river not far away, and they didn't care whether the ground was dirty or not.

Zhang Tianyao took out half a pack of cigarettes, lit them himself, and threw them away to Cen Ye. The two swallowed the clouds. At this time, Zhang Tianyao showed a completely different silent demeanor from just now, and after a pause, he asked Cen Ye: "We finally got the opportunity to perform in the black coffee, do you think it will be ...... next week?" Can we explode?"

Cen Ye took a deep puff of cigarette with his slender fingers and said, "Afraid of hair, when did we not blow up the audience?"

Zhang Tianyao laughed, as if the little lack of confidence in his heart was swept away. He squinted his eyes and said, "I didn't expect Xu Xunsheng to really come." There was joy in the words. Cen Ye glanced at him: "You won't be tempted by her, will you?"

Zhang Tianyao said lightly: "Move your ass, can't I tease her?"

At half past eight in the evening, the two arrived at a bar on time. Although this bar is not as well-known as the black coffee, it pays them well. Huizi and Zhao Tan have arrived. Keyboardist Zhang Hai was late as usual.

Before it was their turn to perform, a few people sat in the lounge behind the stage, smoking and chatting. Cen Ye took out his phone as usual and indulged in the game. Zhao Tan brought a cup of fat sea tea, put it in his hand, and said, "Drink some and moisten your throat." ”

"Hmm......" Cen Ye freed up his hand to pick up the tea.

These are all brothers, but only Zhao Tan is his college classmate, and he also followed him from the northeast to Xiangcheng, although he is taciturn, he usually takes care of Cen Ye.

"Damn!" Cen Ye yelled and rolled his eyes, "Lao Tzu was killed!

Everyone laughed, Zhao Tan was not angry, and said lightly: "Are you he~ the lead singer, are you worthy of us if you don't have a good voice?"

Although Cen Ye was still a little angry, he stopped talking, picked up the teacup and dried it down, and put it down with a "bang".

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Zhang Tianyao replied lazily: "Come in." ”

Coming in was a girl with dyed yellow hair, a pair of cat ears, a short skirt, heavy makeup, and long snow-white legs. Seeing that they were only in their early twenties, and they were still holding a large piano case in their hands, they came in and smiled when they saw them.

When the boys saw her, they all looked at Cen Ye. Cen Ye glanced at her, picked up his mobile phone from the table and continued to play.

"Do we have to avoid it?" said Teruko, who said maliciously.

Zhang Tianyao whispered: "I said that he attracts bees and butterflies, right? He~ good looks is popular, how long have we only debuted, how many girls are obsessed with him?

Cen Ye didn't raise his head: "Avoid your sister!"

The boys laughed and waited to see the show. The girl named Shu Yan was not shy, and when others saw her, they only felt that her whole face and eyes were full of light, which was the unique light of the girl when she looked at the boy she liked. She greeted them one by one, generously, and then walked up to Cen Ye.

"Ono. Shu Yan said, "You said last time that you liked this brand of guitar, and I begged my father to buy this." It's a gift for you to premiere at Black Coffee next week. ”

In the eyes, in the words, there is anticipation.

Seeing that Cen Ye was indifferent, she smiled and opened the box. Several boys came over, and they all exclaimed: "Damn! Shu Yan, you have made a lot of money!" Zhang Tianyao pushed Cen Ye's shoulder: "Xiao Ye, what else are you pretending? For this guitar, you have to kiss one! Not to mention that Shu Yan looks so right!" The implication is that even if Cen Ye accepts Shu Yan and has a good time, it is okay.

Cen Ye raised his head, looked at the guitar, looked at Shu Yan again, and smiled.

Their band has been formed in Changsha for a few months, and has performed several times, which is considered a little famous and has some fans. Shu Yan is one of them, about two months ago, as long as there is a performance of the Sunrise Band, this girl is almost everywhere, and she follows every scene. Cen Ye was really a little annoyed.

"This guitar is a few thousand years bigger to buy, right?" asked Cen Ye.

A look of pride flashed in Shu Yan's eyes. The other boys looked at Cen Ye's appearance, but they knew that it was not good, this guy was yin and yang, and he was afraid that he would be angry.

Cen Ye said slowly: "It's so expensive, I can't afford it even if I work for three months." If you accept it, then you can't sell yourself to you?"

Shu Yan's face flushed slightly: "Ono, don't be kidding, I didn't mean that......"

Cen Ye didn't listen at all and interrupted her: "If you don't sell your body, you have to sell your kidney, and I can't bear to do both." If you don't have any merit, you should take this piano back, whoever wants it wants it. Lao Tzu doesn't ask for women's things in vain. ”

After speaking, he leaned back on the sofa and smiled again: "What's more, now, Lao Tzu already has a better guitar to play." ”
