Chapter 124: Companionship is Good Medicine (2)
Seeing that Sister Lan didn't speak, Blueberry wanted to leave: "Forget it, when I didn't ask." β
Blueberry is a bit of a tiger falling into Pingyang, although it was not bullied by dogs, but to look down at people's faces, Blueberry always felt a little awkward.
"Eh. Sister Lan stopped Blueberry and asked unhurriedly, "I haven't spoken yet, what do you mean?"
Blueberry turned around and didn't answer.
"Can you sing?" asked Sister Lan.
Blueberry's eyes suddenly lit up and nodded: "Yes, yes." β
"Then come in. I hope you don't lie to me, because if you do, it won't end well. β
Sister Lan took Blueberry to a large room at the back of the restaurant, there was a dresser in the room, some cosmetics were placed on it, and there were some costumes next to it, Sister Lan explained, "I used to have a small theater troupe here, which was disbanded not long ago, and the clothes, rouge, and gouache are all ready-made, and you can use them as you like." β
"Huh?" Blueberry's eyes widened, "You don't mean to sing that you want me to sing, do you?"
"Sing whatever you want, but I'm a place for everyone to eat, drink and have fun, you have to think carefully when you choose tunes, don't get hot in your head, and sing me all the tunes." Sister Lan reminded Blueberry.
"Oh. Blueberry thinks this is just a trivial matter, he has been in the girl group anyway, and he has never seen any scenes, just a small performance.
"That's right. Sister Lan remembered something and asked, "What's your name?" β
"My name is Blueberry. Blueberry replied.
"I'll give you two hours to prepare, and when the hour comes, you'll give me the stage. β
Blueberry was a little depressed when she heard Sister Lan's words: "Eh, then you want to get me some musical instruments, right?"
"You can play a musical instrument?" Sister Lan looked at Blueberry in disbelief.
"A little bit. "Blueberries don't know what instruments are in this era.
"I've got people here for musical instruments. Sister Lan turned around and shouted, "Old Duan, come in." β
An old man walked in with a handful of instruments that said that the pipa did not look like a pipa, and that the guitar was not a guitar.
"This is Lao Duan, our instrumentalist here, tell him whatever you want to sing. Sister Lan said.
Blueberry thinks it's just a joke about what kind of music can be played on this broken piano.
Sister Lan explained this old paragraph again: "You can play whatever this girl sings." β
"Yes. Lao Duan replied respectfully.
"I still have something to do, you can prepare. β
Blueberry grabbed Sister Lan: "Eh, I don't know what your name is." β
"My name is Orchid, and everyone here calls me Sister Lan, so you can call me that. β
Blueberry almost couldn't hold back his laughter when he heard the name orchid.
Orchid walked out of the doorway.
Lao Duan asked Blueberry leisurely: "Girl, what do you want to sing?"
"Oh, you don't need you, you go and rest. β
Blueberry's words made Lao Duan a little surprised: "Don't need me, girl, are you kidding?"
"I'm not kidding, you go and rest. Blueberry affirmed.
After Lao Duan left, Blueberry sat in front of the dressing table in a daze, how could he sing with nothing.
Blueberry looked around to make sure that there was no one around, Blueberry waved his right hand, and a guitar appeared in front of Blueberry.
There is no doubt that people in this era have never seen such a thing as a guitar.
Blueberry is worried that he will be regarded as an outlier if he takes it out like this, but if he only has one piano, it is really difficult to perform, and Blueberry still values this job because he is not too tired, and he has experience in this area. If you don't get this job, Blueberries will have to look for it again, and it's far away.
Blueberry decided to play the guitar to surprise everyone, maybe everyone will like the guitar feeling.
The next thing Blueberry has to do is to put on makeup, Blueberry hesitated in front of the mirror for a while, and decided to go on stage without makeup, as for what to wear, Blueberry randomly chose a fitting dress from those costumes and changed it on.
The Wangxing Tower is already full of friends and guests.
Blueberry has never seen anything in the world, and when the time came, Blueberry exhaled slightly and came to the stage calmly. At first, Blueberry didn't attract attention, and the guests in the audience drank and chatted, and no one looked at the stage. It wasn't until Blueberry's guitar sounded that Blueberry chose a song with relatively cheerful lyrics and tunes, and changed "The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountains" into a guitar version.
Blueberry sat down on the bench first, posed, "The king called me to patrol the mountainβ" A high-pitched and powerful voice came out of Blueberry's mouth, and the aura seemed to calm the audience, and the noisy noise immediately quieted down, and everyone's eyes looked at Blueberry.
"The sun winks at me, the birds sing to me, I'm a little goblin who works hard and isn't clingy, don't ask me where I'm from, don't ask me where I'm going, I'm going to pluck the most beautiful flowers and offer them to my little princess. Singing this, Blueberry couldn't help but sell cute, and his voice became a little more coquettish: "Oops, I almost forgot." Then he returned to the original tune: "The king called me to patrol the mountains, I turned the world, beat my drums, beat my gongs, life is full of rhythm, the king asked me to come to patrol the mountains, catch a monk to make dinner, the water of this mountain stream is incomparably sweet, do not envy the mandarin ducks and immortals..."
Because Blueberry has a singing foundation, Blueberry is not worried that he can't sing well enough, but that he is afraid that the audience will not understand what he is singing.
After singing a song, Blueberry bent down to the 90-degree standard of the audience, and when he raised his head, he saw that everyone was looking at him, but he didn't react, so Blueberry's heart couldn't help but chuckle: What the hell? Is it bad to sing? Or do you not like it at all?
Directly below the platform, Orchid sat with several men, and the man close to Orchid was the first to applaud, and everyone applauded.
Blueberry noticed him, this man had some dark skin, but he looked very decent, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he looked very calm.
Blueberry smiled faintly at him and gestured.
Then after returning to the stage, Blueberry knew that this time it was really a failure, and he knew what kind of song he should choose, Blueberry slapped his head, it was really a pig's brain.
Forget it, Blueberry didn't want to be swept away, so Blueberry changed his clothes back and took his guitar to leave.
Orchid walked in: "Blue Girl." β
"Huh?" Blueberry turned away, not daring to look at Orchid's face.
Orchid didn't sell it, and said straight to the point: "Where do you live?"
"My family, I know I didn't sing well, it doesn't matter if you don't want to hire me, you want to know what my family does?" asked Blueberry strangely.
"When can you come to work and give me a good word, or will I schedule a time for you?"
Orchid's words surprised Blueberry, and Blueberry asked in surprise, "Are you willing to hire me?"
"Well, but to be honest, I didn't understand a word of your songs, but if someone likes you, you stay. β
Blueberry didn't listen to Orchid's words, only knowing that Orchid was willing to hire him, Blueberry felt so happy.
