5. Chapter IV

When Cui Qi went home, Yu Chunyou was pinching bean sprouts in the yard, and when he saw Cui Qi coming back, he asked with concern: "Did you quarrel with Wang Xiaopang?" ”

When Wang Xiaopang ran home with dog shit, several old people were outside to cool off, Wang Xiaopang cried and choked and told everyone the ins and outs of the matter, but the old ladies didn't take the children's quarrel seriously, maybe they would have to talk about Wang Xiaopang's dog shit when they got home, laugh and laugh. Yu Chunyou has been more relaxed recently, no longer confined to the house, and will take a stool to cool off in the evening, but the puppet continues to do it. Seeing that Wang Xiaopang came back, he specially went home to take a look, and when he saw that his grandson didn't come home, he guessed that he might be with the children of the Hao family. There are always a few children in this film who don't deal with it, and the old ladies have nothing to do to chat about the disturbances between the children, and they also know that the children of the Hao family are obviously Wang Xiaopang's rivals. In terms of being well-informed, no one can compare to this group of gossiping old ladies from time to time, and the situation in the short zone of any parent will live in the mouths of the old ladies. Speaking of the Hao family, an old lady said that my relative's relatives and the second aunt of the Hao family are brothers-in-law, and I heard that the ancestors of the Hao family are on it; Another old lady said that the Hao family's dragon and phoenix fetus was delivered in my son's hospital, and I heard that it was at that time; There is also an old lady who said that when I was young, I worked in the same unit as the deceased old man of the Hao family, and then the old man of the Hao family was transferred away, and the family history of the Hao family was cleaned up in a few words.

Yu Chunyou knew about the Hao family. The father of the twins used to be a special soldier, and I heard that he also participated in the National Day parade, which was rumored for a while, and after retiring from the army, he entered the Public Security Bureau, and now he is in the criminal police team. Hao's mother is a music teacher who is looking high, beautiful and temperamental, and gentle, when she was young, she had several suitors, and the Hao family's grandmother saw it at a glance, and in order to take the lead, she personally went into battle for her son. Hao's grandmother was a Chinese teacher in Wanggao before she retired, and she taught in Wanggao for 40 years. But to say that the thing she is most proud of in Wanggao is not that the world is full of peaches and plums, but that she has set a daughter-in-law. 9 years ago, her son retired due to injury, 30 years old, a proper older youth, and many injuries, must be the master of the hospital for a long time, so it is difficult to find a daughter-in-law. Hao's grandmother took a fancy to the new music teacher, and ordered her son to pick her up from work every day, so that she could brush up in front of the little girl, and grind the little girl's office every day to isolate a young male teacher with bad intentions for the little girl. Fortunately, the little girl has a heart for the son of the Hao family, no matter what, the twins and his father are still quite good-looking, tough and handsome, compared to a group of polite male teachers, the charm is different, and the grandmother of the Hao family is like a god, and she is the first to get through the relationship between the little girl's parents, so the little girl who accepts the Hao family's son's commuting service every day for a year nodded.

The Hao family does not live in Jiuqu Creek, but lives in the house assigned by Wanggao to the faculty and staff, which is next to Wanggao and quite close to Jiuqu Creek, so the Hao family is very familiar with the old ladies, especially Hao Ziqiu, who climbs trees everywhere, which really left a deep impression on the old ladies. This house is still the grandmother of the Hao family, the old house more than ten years ago, the neighbors are mostly a group of teachers, the Hao family and the couple see that the growth environment here is good, and the influence on the children is good, so they have been living here.

The Cui family does not have a rule of not saying anything, and Yu Chunyou asked more carefully during the meal, and was surprised to hear Cui Qi say that he was playing in the Yun family this afternoon. The Hao family is just ordinary, but the Yun family is famous. At the beginning, the Yun family was indeed a nouveau riche, but they couldn't stand the two sons of the Yun family, one was an official and the other was doing business, and they both made a good reputation, and then the Yun family became a nouveau riche in Wangdu. In addition to this, another famous name of the Yun family is the grandson of the Yun family, who is Yun Qing, who has already won two international piano competition awards at a young age, and is really a man of the hour.

Hearing that Yun Qing was so famous, Cui Qi was surprised, but more were gone. Yuchun is thinking that her grandson has found a playmate, but Cui Qi is thinking about the homework assigned by the teacher this week.

Nowadays, primary schools are all su zhì education, in addition to the prescribed curriculum, the school will also be interested in groups, in addition to the school, usually parents will also consciously let their children participate in some special classes, such as piano, Go, calligraphy and painting. Yu Chunyou didn't expect these things, Cui Qi didn't mention it, Song Xiao wanted Cui Qi to participate in a specialty class, Cui Qi just shook his head, not uninterested, he has been practicing the piano since he was a child, and he can play a few songs simply, but now it is not possible to continue learning, he knows that his family's economic situation is not good, and he can't support expensive interest classes.

"Do you want to go to the competition?" It's just that Song Xiao is afraid that Cui Qi will be seen as a nerd, obviously he used to be a literary and artistic activist, but now he is unusual, he is worried, and he deliberately pays attention to some competitions that Cui Xi was interested in before.

"Golden Microphone" small host competition, Cui Qi glanced at the leaflet, this competition is the city's children's program selection of small hosts. He participated in it once last year and won the encouragement prize, which was still in his desk and never touched.

"The host is actually paid, right?" Cui Qi's heart moved, one is that he really likes this aspect, he only won the encouragement award last year, and on the other hand, he is paid as a host, he thinks if he can make money, will his family be better?

"Huh? Yes, right? When asked about this, Song Xiao was stunned for a moment, thinking of the current Cui family, he only felt sour in his heart, which originally did not need Cui Qi to care.

The matter of participating in the competition was quickly decided, Cui Qi also participated last year, and there was a car accident, and the TV station took a gimmick to send him directly to the semi-finals this year, so Cui Qi was actually a little unhappy in his heart, but Yu Chunyou said that he was lucky this time, and he didn't choke with his grandmother, Cui Qi was just silent.

"Golden Microphone" is the third session this year, because last year's session attracted a lot of attention, and this year it was directly a TV show, and several people came and went in the semi-finals, Cui Qi really knew better, and many of them participated in the competition last year. Last year, it was still very copycat, and the words were said casually, but this year it was on TV, and the director specially prepared a set of rhetoric for a few small contestants for the sake of the effect of the program.

It took a month from the primary selection to being on TV, and it was New Year's Day by the time the semifinals were over. There were a total of 12 people in the semi-finals, half of which were brushed off, and only six made it to the finals. For the sake of the effect of the show, the twelve people were all dressed up handsome and cute when they first appeared, and on the surface, everyone was really a little angel.

At the beginning, it must have been introduced by the contestants, these are all short films made by the program team, twelve people have their own characteristics, some people take the route of academic tyrants, some people take the literary route, cute angels, cool demons and everything, even bear children are a kind of characteristic, when they get to Cui Qi, it has become a tear-jerking route, edited with artistic effects, and the happy photos of a family of three are compared to the empty home of the old and young people in an instant tear-jerking. Cui Qi didn't know about these before, his parents gave full authority to the choreographer, and when he saw the live effect, Cui Di's face was not very good, he was most annoyed to show weakness like this and say how miserable he was, but the choreographer still felt that the effect was good. The effect is really good, and some people in the audience wiped their tears when they watched it, but Cui Qi was not happy.

After the contestants are introduced, the host will ask a few words, these are the original memorized words, for example, the host asked why he wanted to participate in the competition, Cui Qi said that he failed to win the championship last year, and he will continue to work hard this year, and get the championship to show his deceased parents ....... a string, in short, how to tear up, how to come, Cui Qi didn't realize anything before, but now after watching the short film, he suddenly understood the director's thoughts, but he was not happy!

"The No. 8 contestant was the encouragement award of our Golden Microphone Competition last year, and this year is a very difficult hurdle for Xiao Cui Qi, but we can see Xiao Cui Qi's strength and courage from the short video, I am very happy to meet you again on this stage, let us give Xiao Cui Qi a round of applause! …… So, little Cui Qi, come to tell Sister SΓΉ, why do you want to participate in this competition? ”

Cui Qi raised his head and glanced at the choreographer in the audience, pursed his lips and was serious: "I want to participate in the competition." ”

The host originally prepared a set of rhetoric, just saying how strong and brave he was, but Cui Qi didn't come as planned, and the host on the stage was stunned, and blurted out a sentence: "It's gone?" ”

"It's gone," Cui Qi raised his eyebrows, his expression unchanged.

Jin Xue'er choked suddenly, and turned the topic to the next player with difficulty: "Okay, let's take a look at the self-introduction of the No. 9 player." ”

Audience: "......"

Today's TV shows like to broadcast live, and Jin Microphone is no exception, before the director decided to cut this paragraph, the sudden increase in ratings decided that the host Jin Xueer was slapped in the face in various ways.

For a while, Weibo comments continued.

"233333~The host is so pitiful~"

"This kind of program is memorized in advance, right?"

"Clearly unplanned"

"Unplanned+1"

β€œ+2”

"No. 8 looks so cute~"

"The domineering president has a sense of sight?"

β€œhhhhh~”

"Domineering President +1"

"Is it just me that thinks number 6 is cool?"

"Number 6!"

β€œ666666”

"I pick number 3"

"Little angel number 3, come to my bowl"

"The bear child is not bad! Two goods one~"

After introducing himself, there is a talent show, basically based on singing and dancing, of course, the top student chooses calligraphy, Cui Qi plays a piano, so-so. They are all children around 10 years old, talented but their level is not much better, but a cool street dance is at a real level, and the difficult action of high-speed rotation on the top of the brain directly explodes the audience.

"Damn, that's awesome!"

"Professionals tell you, how hard it is to practice!"

"Number 6!"

"Handsome!"

"Cool!"

"Dazzle!"

"Didn't anyone notice the dull hair on his head?"

"Silly .......hhhh"

After two quarters, it was an off-site vote, and the cool stream ranked first, Cui Qi ranked fourth, and there were five, six, or seven behind him.

The host competition definitely requires the young contestants to speak clearly and generously, of course, literacy is also very important, so the first item is recitation, and the topic is selected.

I don't know how much the program director loves homesickness, 4 out of 12 people chose homesickness, and they are different authors, and there were all kinds of complaints on the Internet for a while.

"In the Afterglow"

"Xi Murong"

"North Stone, the string holding the kite"

"Watch the formation upstairs"

"Boiling Red"

"Ice Heart"

"Sanmao"

"Huang Wanting"

"Richard Clayderman"

Cui Qi didn't choose nostalgia, he chose "I Love This Land", deep sentences and 8-year-old children's voices make people play every minute.

"233333 ~ domineering president is the sense of sight"

"Contrasting Moe"

"Choreographer, you're a monkey invited to make a joke."

"hhhh~ It's funny"

"Serious"

But these five are almost unlucky, and the others are very normal, what "My Mother", "My Dad" and "When I Grow Up" are all poems that are very suitable for children. TV invited two professors from Wangdu University to score, professionalism was guaranteed, and after a round of scoring, Cui Qi ranked sixth.

The third round is a story performance, divided into three groups, each group of four people, still in lottery mode. Cui Qi and Xuebaliu Angel Xiao Tiantian are together.

Several children Xueba are a little older 12 years old, Angel is 11 years old, Xiao Tiantian is 9 years old, Cui Qi is 8 years old, for the sake of his youngest, the other three children are very Kong Rong let the pear consciousness let Cui Qi go to the lottery, and then he chose the most difficult problem, the ancient poem performance "Xiao Chi".

Xueba bared his teeth, the angel squinted and raised his eyebrows, Xiao Tiantian stared, and Cui Qi was helpless.

"Hhhhhh~ Everyone is an emoticon"

"233333~S-class most problematic"

"Congratulations to the players for winning the S-Rank Package"

There are three levels in the three groups, the simplest is "The Mermaid", although there are no lines, everyone knows the story, and the more difficult one is "Homecoming Doll Book", but it is not difficult to write poems on the card, only "Koike", a title and an author, no.

"Who will carry it?" The angel asked, embarrassed she couldn't remember which one it was.

Britney shook her head, she didn't know.

As for Cui Qi, who is Yang Wanli [Southern Song Dynasty]?

The three of them stared at Xueba with six pairs of eyes in unison.

was pinned on high hopes, Xueba was excited for a moment, and blurted out a poem: "Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaves He Tiantian." Fish play among lotus leaves. Fish play lotus leaf east, fish play lotus leaf west. Fish play lotus leaves in the south, fish play lotus leaves in the north. ”

"Okay, one of us plays the fish, the other plays the flower picker, and then ...... Fisherman and lotus leaves! The little angel instantly decided the role: "I'll play the flower picker!" ”

"I play lotus leaves!" Britney raised her hand.

"Then I'll play the fisherman!" Xueba nodded.

The three of them looked at Cui Qi with six pairs of eyes.

"There is a very important question," Cui Qi said solemnly: "This is "Jiangnan" by Han Yuefu, and it is definitely not "Xiaochi". ”

Three: "......"

"Hhhhhh~I'm laughing to death~"

"Gangnam, Koike~~2333333"

"Hhhhhh~ It's funny!"

"Wrong back~2333333"

"Is my focus on picking flowers?"

"Hhhh~I choked with laughter~"

"I see!" Xueba touched his nose embarrassedly: "I was mistaken, the words of "Koike...... Fasting before daytime fatigue, love Koike Kiyoshi at night. There is no remaining scenery in the forest, and the water is slightly cool. Sit on a pu fan and moan three or two times. Intentionally not big, Zhan Zhan abbot remains. The lotus side is clear and dewy, and the fish are swimming. Every time you sit here, you will return to Qingxi Residence. ”

"What do you mean?" The angel asked.

"I don't know," Xueba winked.

"Contentment and happiness," Cui Qi frowned: "This song is by Bai Juyi." ”

Three: "......"

"hhhh~ I got it wrong again~"

β€œ233333~”

"Xueba is so pitiful~"

"The president is serious and said that it is funny to make a mistake~"

"There are a lot of poems that Xueba can memorize, although he often reverses them wrong~hhhhh~"

"Don't you think the president is the real person who doesn't show up?"

β€œ+1”

β€œ+2”

β€œ+10086”

"Is my focus only on time? There are 48 seconds left until the end of the discussion! ”

β€œοΌοΌοΌβ€

"This group is still reciting poems...... hhhhhhh~”

"45 seconds left!" Cui Qi glanced at the time and reminded.

"Come to think of it, which song is "Little Pond"?" The angel suddenly jumped to his feet: "Yang Wanli's poem is Yang Wanli!" ”

"Think about it too!" Xueba sweated.

"No, it won't."

"I haven't memorized it."

Cui Qi and Xiao Tian shook their heads directly.

"There are still 30 seconds left before the end of the discussion, I think each group has already assigned roles and lines, and the groups that are not ready should come on~" Jin Xue'er reminded in a timely manner, and the sweat on Xueba's face became more and more.

"This group is still reciting poems ~hhhhhh~"

"Which song is Koike?"

"Little lotus shows sharp corners"

"Oooo

"hhhhh~ I just can't remember~"

"Countdown 10, 9, 8......"

"I see!" Xueba shouted: "The spring is silent and cherishes the trickle, and the shade of the tree shines on the water and loves the sunshine." The little lotus has only shown its sharp corners, and there are dragonflies standing on its head! ”

β€œ5,4……”

"Dragonflies, trees, lotuses...... Sun! The angel hurriedly assigned the role: "No matter, act as you want for a while, and think your own lines!" ”

β€œ2,1,0…… It's time! The host shouted, and the four of them hurriedly stood next to them.
