Summer afternoon. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The sun at two o'clock was so hot that it shone on a person like boiling water.
Sophie closed the bamboo curtains hanging from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, and all of a sudden, the sunlight became dappled and detached, with a hint of lazy taste, and it was no longer so sharp.
She lifted the keyboard cover, and the black-and-white keys appeared in front of her.
A ray of sunlight shone on it, and Sophie stroked the keys, and the light gradually shone brightly, as if flowing slowly along an elegant arc.
Taking a light breath, Sophie's pretty face smiled leisurely, her fingers slowly pressing on the keys, and then speeding up.
Soon, the crisp sound of the piano sounded, sliding from the bass to the treble, the tone gradually high-pitched, and slowly sliding from the treble back to the rhythm.
Li Du boiled the tea, then leaned against the kitchen door to watch the scene, listening intently to the cheerful sound of the piano.
The tone of this piano piece is light and joyful, the piano notes beat high and low, the tune dances like an elf through the wind and rain when it is compact, and when the tune is relaxed, it slowly falls back like a tide.
For the next few minutes, the sound of the piano resounded in every corner of the living room, sometimes soothing, sometimes turbulent, but always so light and crisp.
In the sound of such light music, the dull atmosphere of summer in the house was swept away.
For the first time, Li Du believed that music is a living thing.
At the end of the song, Sophie finally struck the keys smoothly, and with a lingering end note, the piano fell.
The last scattered piano sound, Li Du listened to it and felt like jade beads scattered on a jade plate, fine, smooth, translucent, and shiny.
Sophie turned her head to look at him with a smile, her green eyes were extremely clear, and for a moment, Mr. Li felt that these were the jade beads he had thought of earlier.
"How do you feel? I'm pretty good, right?"
Li Du said sincerely: "Please do it again!"
Sophie laughed merrily and said, "As you wish, my sir, this is the best compliment you can give me." ”
Hearing this sentence 'my husband', although Mr. Li knew that this was what she said casually, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, and he had an urge to just live like this.
The piano sounded again, this time she changed the tune, not so cheerful, but softer, just as beautiful.
After the long curl, Sophie smiled, "Do you know its name?"
Li Du shook his head awkwardly, his musical literacy was almost zero.
Sophie said: "It's "The Mark of Spring", spring and summer converge, I think it's pretty good, right?"
Li Du said: "Of course, both pieces are beautiful. ”
The tea boiled, blistering, jujube and lemon slices washed up on the surface of the water by boiling boiling water, surrounded by stretching black tea.
Suddenly, a fruity aroma of tea permeated.
When the tea boiled, Li Du poured it into the cup, he poured half of it, and the tea was very thick and a little sticky with juice.
But when he put a lot of ice cubes in it, as the ice melted, the fruit tea was diluted and became cold.
Sitting at a small wooden table under the tree, the two of them each had a cup of chilled fruit tea, and Meow got a small dried fish, and the crisp noodles got a piece of apple.
Meow went up the tree with the dried fish in his mouth, and he was not in a hurry to eat it, because it was full, so he put down the dried fish, and his limbs hung freely, and he hung his body on a branch.
Simply noodles pinched apples and anxiously circled the tree, looking for water sources to wash its food.
Li Du said helplessly: "Simply noodles, there is no water here, no need to wash it, I will wash it for you." ”
It didn't know if it understood or not, it blinked its small eyes, and still looked anxiously from side to side.
Li Du spread his hands and said, "There is no water, it's washed." ”
He simply lowered his head and sighed, puffing out from his long nasal cavity, which sounded exceptionally loud.
Then it pinched the apple and swung its paws, as if there was water in front of it, still doing the action of washing.
Sophie laughed, "It's a smart raccoon, and a smart raccoon would do something like that." ”
After Li Du raised the noodles, he would inquire about the raccoon when he had nothing to do.
Indeed, raccoons are very strange in their way of washing their food, they don't do it to really wash anything, it seems that they have this consciousness in their genes.
Clever raccoons do this even when they don't have water, as if they have simulated water in their minds.
Li Du took a sip of black tea, and the reason for using ice cubes was that it was very cool, but this affected the taste, and the fruity and tea aromas were diluted.
There was no wind in Flagpole City in the afternoon, so it was still a bit hot.
Fortunately, after an hour, as the sun sets in the west, the temperature begins to decrease, so that it is more comfortable to drink fruit herbal tea in the shade of the trees.
Li Du talked about some of his experiences in Los Angeles, and Sophie listened very carefully, asking a few words from time to time, and her pretty face was full of expectation.
After the introduction, she said, "Where else have you been? Is there anything interesting?"
Li Du asked, "Haven't you been there?"
Sophie lay on the table melancholy, supported her chin with her hands and said, "Hey, it's all my fault for being too homely." I stayed in Flagpole City until I graduated from high school, then went to college in Phoenix and came back after graduation. ”
Li Du was surprised: "You haven't been to Los Angeles, or Las Vegas? Las Vegas is not far from Flagpole City. ”
Sophie said regretfully: "The farthest is Phoenix, isn't my life boring?"
At this, she became a little depressed.
Li Du subconsciously held her hand and said, "How can it be? A stable life is also very good, but if you like it, then I can take you out for a walk in the future." ”
Caught by his hand, Sophie's eyes widened sharply, two red clouds appeared on her delicate cheeks, and then she quickly lowered her head.
As for what Li Du said, she probably didn't listen to it at all.
Seeing this, Mr. Li was also a little embarrassed, but the warm skin of his little hands was very smooth, and it was quite cool to hold in his hands, so he didn't let go.
The atmosphere will become very awkward if this continues, so Mr. Li pretended to be very comfortable and continued: "I met a girl in Los Angeles, well, this is our third meeting, and she is the opposite of you......"
He told the story of Tina, a girl who wandered across the United States in pursuit of her musical dreams, like a proud and strong wild goose.
Sophie propped her chin in her remaining hand and listened intently as he told her about Tina.
When he finished speaking, she said faintly, "You know her well." ”
Li Du was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had done something stupid!
He hurriedly tried to find a way to remedy it, but fortunately, Sophie just sighed casually and continued: "Her life is very rich, and every day is wonderful, but I don't think I can do it, I can't take care of myself." ”
Mr. Li smiled: "Then I'll take care of you?"
Sophie also smiled, glanced at him and said, "I mean, if I go wandering, I can't take care of myself, if I still do the same, of course I can live well." ”
Mr. Li smiled cheekily and said, "Then when you go wandering, I will take care of you." ”
Sophie raised her eyebrows and made a noncommittal expression, and said with a grin, "But I don't want to wander now." ”
