【Chapter 159】 The singing is melodious
While Liu Rui and the others were happily preparing dinner, Liu Zhi and Tongtong were also working the highway from Qingyun to Liangcun. After getting off the boat from Qingyun Wharf, Liu Zhi felt sorry for his sister, so he kept riding a bicycle with her, and the little girl was a little restless even if she sat in the back seat, chattering non-stop.
After a week of intense study at school, Tongtong was like a bird out of the cage after the holiday, sitting in the back seat and looking around, breathing in the air with the fragrance of plants and trees, feeling that everything was so beautiful.
The sun begins to set from the other side of the mountain, and the golden sunlight spreads on the surface of the lake, and the trees are like a layer of gold dust, which is intoxicating.
What used to be a rough plow road has now been transformed into a wide and flat asphalt road, and the bicycle runs on it almost without bumps, and the road is smooth. In the past, when Liu Zhi and Tongtong went home, they had to push the cart back every other way, which was extremely hard. When it rains, the muddy road is like a paste or polenta, and the wheels are stuck in it and you can't move it.
Sometimes, the good mood of returning home will be completely ruined by bad roads, but the villagers of Yeliang Village are helpless.
Now, the asphalt road from Qingyun to Liangcun has been opened to traffic, which makes Liu Zhi, who rides on it for the first time, feel more comfortable and directly feel the convenience and speed brought by this road.
Facing the blowing breeze, Liu Zhi, who was in a good mood, couldn't help but open his throat and began to sing, and for a while, the out-of-tune "Heart Too Soft" echoed in the wilderness. In the past two years, Ren Xianqi's song "The Heart is Too Soft" has been sung in the streets and alleys of Qingshan, not to mention young people like Liu Zhi, even some old men and women can hum a sentence or two.
However, compared with Liu Rui's artistic cells, Liu Zhi seems to be a little incomplete, and his roaring "Too Soft Heart" is not gentle at all, but a bit hard.
"Liu Zhi! Don't sing your broken gong voice anymore, save yourself from attracting the wolves in Xiaoqingshan! The little girl frowned and patted Liu Zhi on the back.
Hearing his sister's protest, Liu Zhi scratched his head a little embarrassed, obediently stopped singing, and said, "Then you sing a song, otherwise it's too quiet!" ”
Liu Zhi also knew that his voice was a little unsuitable for singing, so he was a little looking forward to his sister's tactful and melodious singing, and proposed at the beginning.
Since Liu Zhi made the whole suggestion, Tongtong didn't twist, cleared his throat, and began to sing, which is also a reserved program for the two of them. Liu Zhi rode hard in front with Tongtong, and she used singing to pass the time and drive away Liu Zhi's fatigue. Over time, the two of them have formed a good tacit understanding, and the way home will not seem so dull.
Soon, the crisp voice began to echo in the woods, drifting with the wind, filling the evening trail with a sense of agility. Tongtong's voice inherits the innocence of the mountain girl, and her natural and unadorned voice sings the pop song of 'Muji', which also has a unique flavor.
In recent years, a pair of young singer-songwriters have become popular, and the slightly female style has won the love of a large number of little girls, and it is quite popular among girls in junior and senior high schools, and Tongtong is no exception. Tongtong, who has listened to her sisters, sisters, aunts and sisters-in-law sing mountain songs in the village since she was a child, has a good voice since she was a child, and she sings like a lark.
After going to school, after learning some singing skills with the music teacher, Tongtong became more and more fond of the feeling of singing, and she had a part in every theatrical performance in school. After a long time, almost everyone in the school knew that a little girl sang very well, and Tongtong had a lot of popularity in the county No. 1 Middle School.
Generally speaking, most of the children who go from the countryside to the city will become a little inferior and sensitive because of the huge gap between urban and rural areas, and they cannot adapt well to life in the county. The children in the countryside either form a small circle with the villagers and live carefully in the city; Or just bury your head in your studies and use your studies to prove that you are not bad at all.
However, unlike others, for various reasons, Tongtong's surname is very cheerful and confident, and after entering the county, he is also very good at expressing his views and showing his advantages. Soon, her singing talent was valued by the music teacher of No. 1 Middle School, and she would practice with the teacher every day after studying, preparing to apply for the art college after high school.
Over time, Tongtong became more and more confident, and she had already gotten rid of the image of a yellow-haired girl in the countryside and became a lively and simple little girl. In Qingshan County No. 1 Middle School, the little girl can be regarded as a popular figure, and she can attract the admiration of some little boys wherever she goes.
Now sitting in the back seat of the bicycle, seeing that she is about to get home, thinking that she can eat the food at home, the little girl opens her voice and sings, just like her bright mood.
Muji's songs are relatively high, and the clear voices of Guangliang and Pinguan are very good, which is no wonder that they can attract a large number of fans. In contrast, Xiao Tongtong's vocal range is higher, although the singing skills are still a little jerky, but it also gives the work a new charm.
Bicycles run on flat asphalt roads, and the sound of the howling wind sends the song in all directions, and the crisp sound falls on the nearby woods, vegetable patches and lakes, leaving everyone who hears them sideways.
When everyone looked at the two little people on the bicycle, they all looked at each other and smiled.
Half a year ago, the Liu family suffered such a major change, Liu Rui and Tongtong were sad every time they went home, worried that the situation at home would deteriorate. At that time, they always walked silently, as if a dark cloud was chasing them in the sky.
Now that time has passed, the Liu family has long since disappeared from the crumbling situation at the beginning, and after the clouds are cleared, all that remains of the Liu family is sunshine. From the performance of the two dolls on the way back from school, the villagers can see a hint that the situation of the Liu family is indeed improving rapidly.
The car quickly passed through Xialiang Village, and went straight to Shangliang Village along the asphalt road, at least two or three times as fast as usual, and that kind of pleasure was something that Liu Zhi couldn't feel.
The bicycle is speeding all the way, and the singing is also sprinkled all the way, although it is a scene of sunset, but under the golden sun, it is full of youth and vitality, forming a harmonious beauty.
Just when the two of them passed by the reeds by the lake, they suddenly realized that compared with before, the reeds in front of them seemed to have changed dramatically.
The reed leaves, which were originally still a little green, have withered and yellowed, and only the white-flowered reeds are swaying in the wind on the branches, and a gust of wind blows through the lake, and the reeds are like snowflakes, flying all over the sky and covering the sky. However, in the eyes of Liu Zhi and Tongtong, such a scene has long been commonplace, and it is not strange to be used to it.
What really catches their eye are the elves that loom in the reeds!
