Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Duet of Two Cats

The next day, Zhou Xiaochuan got up early in the morning, went to the vegetable market with great anticipation to buy a fatty fresh fish, hid it in a black garbage bag, and then rushed to the pet home, waiting for the sand to come to 'trade'.

It wasn't until half past nine that Li Yuhan was late, and Shazi naturally followed her.

After greeting Li Yuhan and taking advantage of her to treat a sick cat, Zhou Xiaochuan and Shazi met in a corner that was not easy to be seen.

"How's it going, did you take the picture?" Zhou Xiaochuan lowered his voice and asked sneakily.

Shazi replied, "You can rest assured that I will run errands, and the memory card will be in my master's bag." But you, did you buy me fresh fish? It licked its tongue with a look of anticipation.

Zhou Xiaochuan raised his hand and pointed to the garbage bag next to him, and said in a low voice: "Oh, just hide it in that bag, you give me the memory card, and I will give you this fresh fish." ”

"No problem." Shazi answered, jumped in front of the cabinet where Li Yuhan put the bag, easily opened the cabinet, and took out a memory card from the bag and put it in his mouth. Then, he closed the cabinet door briskly.

The whole process only took a few seconds. And, from beginning to end, it was quiet. Li Yuhan, who was treating the sick cat not far away, was stunned and didn't notice it at all.

After putting the memory card in his mouth into Zhou Xiaochuan's hand, Shazi urged vigorously: "The memory card has been given to you, hurry up and give me the fresh fish." You know, I'm hungry and haven't eaten anything today, and I'm waiting for this fresh fish meal......"

Zhou Xiaochuan pressed the excitement in his heart, put this memory card into his pocket, and then lifted the black garbage bag, and said to Li Yuhan and Huang Xiaowan in a way that wanted to cover it: "Look at my surname, I forgot to throw away the garbage when I went out in the morning." I'm going to throw this bag of garbage out and I'll be back soon. ”

Li Yuhan and Huang Xiaowan didn't care, they just smiled and joked about his surname, and then started to work again. Taking advantage of the fact that the two of them were not paying attention, Shazi also slipped out of the pet house and followed closely behind Zhou Xiaochuan.

Zhou Xiaochuan walked out of the flower and bird market until he stopped in a relatively secluded alley next to it. While handing over the fresh fish in the garbage bag to Shazi, he also did not forget to remind: "You should finish eating here and then go back to the pet house, otherwise, once your master sees it, then you will be guilty." ”

"You don't need to remind me, I know!" Looking at the sand shining in the eyes of the fresh fish, he hummed, and waited to open his mouth to pick up the fresh fish and eat it in a hidden and uninhabited corner.

At this time, the old turtle suddenly appeared on Zhou Xiaochuan's shoulder, and said to Shazi: "Your Majesty, Respected Sha Lady King, please wait for a while." ”

It can be seen that the sand has left an indelible terrifying impression in the heart of the old turtle. Otherwise, the old turtle would not be so flattering to it.

Sand turned around, looked at it, and said impatiently, "Aren't you an old turtle in the aquarium shop?" Yesterday I heard that you became the pet of this human, and now it seems to be true. Stop me, what's the matter? ”

The old turtle didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "I just want to ask you if you are interested in sending a surprise as a gift to your master." ”

Sandzi asked, "Surprise?" What kind of surprise? ”

The old turtle said, "On the day of your master's life, how about you and my master join forces to put on a show?" I think your host will be pleasantly surprised after seeing your wonderful performance! ”

"Let me put on a show?" Shazi pursed his lips and sneered a little disappreccantly: "What kind of show is performed?" Shake hands? Roll? Or play dead? ”

The old turtle shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, these shows you are talking about are too uninnovative and too small." The program I want you to perform is to sing while my master is playing the harp......"

"Singing?" Before the old turtle could finish speaking, Shazi burst out laughing, "Are you kidding me?" Although I am indeed very good at singing, to the ears of humans, whether I sing "East Wind Breaking" or "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is", it is just a meow and meow cat meow, how will they know that I am singing? ”

The old turtle smiled and said, "Don't worry, humans will definitely know that you are singing." Because of this song, the lyrics from beginning to end only have the word 'meow'. ”

Shazi was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "There are still such songs?" How did I not know? ”

The old turtle really had two brushes, and immediately raised his head and said, "Of course there is." The song is called "Duet of Two Cats" (), a self-deprecating piece composed by the famous Italian composer Giohinorossini in the first half of the 19th century. The whole song is an imitation of a cat's meow. Although the name of this song is "Duet of Two Cats", I believe that even if you are the only cat, you can successfully perform it! Imagine how pleasantly surprised you would be if you could present such a song to your family on the day of her birthday. Would you be interested in giving her a once-in-a-lifetime surprise? ”

Shazi was moved by the old turtle's words, and asked, "How is that song sung?" ”

The old turtle said: "Don't worry, there are still a few days before your master's birthday, and I have to teach my master to play this song first." In this way, on Thursday and Friday nights, you quietly come to the Baiguo community to find my master. At that time, I'll teach you how to sing this song and let the two of you practice it together. ”

"Thursday or Friday nights? Well, do as you say! After dropping these words, Sandsa opened his mouth and picked up the fish in the black garbage bag and disappeared into the alley.

After the sand left, the old turtle raised his head and said to Zhou Xiaochuan: "Master, it seems that in the past few days, you have to work harder and learn another tune." ”

Zhou Xiaochuan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You are really going to find something for me, even the song you taught me yesterday, I don't know if I can learn it before Saturday." Now, you're asking me to learn "The Duet of Two Cats" again. Don't you know the truth that greed can't chew too much? ”

The old turtle's expression became quite serious at this time: "Master, I have confidence in you." I'm sure you'll be able to learn these two tunes by Saturday. To be honest, you did a real surprise last night. Even those pianists who are extremely talented and hailed as geniuses do not have such an amazing performance as you when they first learn piano! If it were someone else, I wouldn't believe he would have been able to learn these two pieces in five days. But you, I firmly believe that we will succeed! ”

"You really think of me......" Zhou Xiaochuan muttered, but in his mind, he recalled the scene last night, when that mysterious energy helped him learn the piano. Unexpectedly, the mysterious energy still has such a role. I don't know, in addition to improving my body and helping me learn the piano, what other effects does it have? Is...... I'm looking forward to it! ”
