Chapter 125: Troubles
Xingyun glanced at this Qiao Zitong again, although he didn't understand why this person was always against him, but he was targeting himself everywhere, which already annoyed him. After he crossed over to this world, under Ye Wenyu's influence, his temper changed a little, if it was before, he would have kicked him out without saying a word.
It was also when he saw that Xiang Chaodong was very respectful and polite to him, and he took care of him to some extent, and he didn't want to make trouble at his daughter's birthday banquet, so he didn't do it.
Xingyun didn't know that Qiao Zitong was targeting him because he thought that he had some ambiguity with Xiang Wenxiang and regarded him as a rival in love. Otherwise, it must be ridiculous. Although Xiang Wen is beautiful, she is just an ordinary woman in Xingyun's eyes.
"Nephew Qiao Xian, what do you mean by that? Are you blaming the kidnappers for being useless? Do you want the little girl to be kidnapped? ”
Xingyun didn't say anything, but Xiang Chaodong showed displeasure, he actually knew that Qiao Zitong didn't really mean this, but Xiang Wen's kidnapping had always made him feel guilty about his daughter, and now that Xingyun saved his daughter, this Qiao Zitong didn't praise Xingyun, but said such things, which naturally made him unhappy.
"Uncle Xiang, I-I didn't mean that, I-" Qiao Zitong suddenly opened his mouth, he just wanted to humiliate Xingyun, how could he know that things are extremely opposite, this sentence offended Xiang Chaodong. I wanted to explain something, but I couldn't take it back after the words were out, thinking that this was miserable, and I would definitely be deducted from my impression in front of Xiang Chaodong.
"Haha, Uncle Xiang, I know that Young Master Qiao doesn't mean that."
At this time, Miao Qingshui interjected, as if he was speaking for himself, which made Qiao Zitong have some good feelings for him, but then Miao Qingshui's words made him a little unbearable: "Young Master Qiao means that the kidnappers who kidnapped the eldest lady this time are too vegetable, and the kidnappers who kidnapped him two years ago are called powerful, otherwise, it will not let the extremely capable Young Master Qiao flow feces and urine, and finally when the police found him, he stinked all over his body as if he had been fished out of a pit." ”
"Coax-" Miao Qingshui's words made everyone at this table laugh, but Qiao Zitong looked frightened, and pointed at Miao Qingshui with shame and anger: "You-how do you know about this?" ”
To say that they are young and broad, they are naturally the objects of the kidnappers' eyes, Qiao Zitong was indeed kidnapped once two years ago, it was the first time he experienced a kidnapping incident in his life, and he was indeed scared to the point of urine, when the police found him, his pants were indeed full of feces and urine, and he lost face at that time. However, this matter was not made public at the time, and the secrecy was well done, and not many outsiders knew about it.
And Miao Qingshui has always liked to travel around, visiting folk ancient martial arts masters, although there is no result, but his surname is low-key and bold but let him travel extensively, when Qiao Zitong was kidnapped, he happened to be in Kyoto City, and it happened that a friend in Kyoto City who knew the inside story told him.
Although Miao Qingshui is playful, he is not the kind of person who likes to expose people's scars, but today he saw that this Qiao Zitong was targeting Xingyun everywhere, and he shook out his troubles in anger.
Now seeing Qiao Zi's childish appearance, he was very happy in his heart, and felt that he had finally spoken out for the master, so he smiled and said: "You don't care how I know, as long as you know in your heart that there is indeed such a thing." ”
"Haha-"
At this time, Zhao Weishan and the others at the table laughed exaggeratedly, in their minds, whether it was Qiao Zitong or Miao Qingshui, they were not from their faction, it was better to deliberately provoke a fight between them, the more ruthless they fought, and naturally there would be no time to help Xiang Chaodong at that time.
However, their smile of sowing discord made Xiang Chaodong vigilant, and he thought that he couldn't fight with his own people and coax them to see the excitement of these old guys, so he frowned and said: "The two virtuous nephews don't have to argue about this little thing, the little girl's birth banquet is about to officially start, let's be quiet." ”
Although he blamed Miao Qingshui and Qiao Zitong, because he felt that Miao Qingshui was talking to Xingyun, he didn't have any disgust with him, but he was very unhappy with Qiao Zitong, thinking: It's not bad to look at this young man usually, but once something happens, he can't hold up the stage, he is irritable and violent, and he is narrow-minded, but he can't make a big deal.
Originally, I had a little impression of Qiao Zitong before, but because of today, I was all deducted at once.
Qiao Zitong's embarrassment was revealed, and he felt very faceless, and he was going to say a few more words to save face, but seeing that Xiang Chaodong had already shown displeasure, he had to give up. It's just strange in my heart, I have never met this Miao Qingshui, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, why does he always target himself? Is it for the abandoned son of the Su family?
At this time, a soft music sounded, and a master of ceremonies was already standing on the stage, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Xiang Wen's birthday banquet officially began.
At this time, Xiang Chaodong walked to the stage, and saw thousands of people in the audience, and the momentum made him happy, because this proved that this year's daughter's birth banquet was indeed very grand, and said into the microphone: "Today, I am happy to say the joy of the little girl's birthday, thanks to all my relatives and friends to come to celebrate, it is really my honor to Xiang-" and then said a few words and walked off the stage.
Xiang Chaodong walked off the stage, and the master of ceremonies walked to Taichung: "Today is the joy of Miss Xiang Wen's birthday, below, I hope everyone wishes Miss Xiang a happy birthday with the sound of music!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the sound of a song wafted in the banquet hall, and the audience was quiet, and at this time, someone looked at Wen Makeup, but saw that there was no joy and joy on her face, and they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts: This year's birthday banquet for the eldest lady is so grand, why is she not very happy?
After Xiang Wen lost the jade pendant, she was always depressed and uneasy, always feeling that something was going to happen, even if it was a birthday banquet that was ten times more grand than today, it didn't make her happy.
After the music of the song ended, the master of ceremonies walked to the stage again: "Next, I invite our birthday star to play a piano piece for everyone!" A round of applause from all of you! ”
About half of the people in the audience participated in Xiang Wen's banquet for the first time, and when the emcee said this, he couldn't help but ask the people who had participated in Xiang Wen's banquet several times: "What?" Does Miss Xiang still play the piano? ”
"Of course, every year at the birthday banquet of the eldest lady, an indispensable program is her piano performance."
Xiang Wen has shown an excellent talent for the piano since she was a child, and she was born in a wealthy family, Xiang Chaodong naturally will not let her talent be buried, since she was a child, she asked a famous teacher to guide, went abroad to study, and now she is in her twenties, and she has a considerable intention of piano skills.
And every year at her birthday banquet, the first program is her piano performance, which has been the case for so many years, and this year will naturally not be missing this program.
It's just that Xiang Wenxiang is really not in the mood to play piano music today, but the thunderous applause from the audience and the expectant eyes of some people made her understand that she can't be rude at this time.
At this time, a staff member had already carried a piano, walked to the stage to Wen makeup, first saluted everyone in the audience, and then sat down in front of the piano.
What mood to choose what tune, in the past life banquet, Xiang Wen has always chosen some light tunes, but today, she chose a solo piano piece - "Dream".
The piano piece "Dream" is composed by Bai Mengyue, a famous pianist in Huaxia Kingdom, who is a musician with a mysterious style, and his music is inherently inexplicably infectious, which can tightly grasp the listener's thoughts while leaving people with infinite thinking space.
And Xiang Wen's purpose for the piano can also play this piece with slow sadness as the rhythm to the fullest.
Under her slender ten fingers, one by one, there were flowing notes, outlining a picture of the sky as cool as water.
Playing slowly, like people dissolving in the cool autumn night, looking at the stars in the sky, alone and silent; It's also like the boring moment of the autumn night, and the mind is constantly intertwined with various ideas.
But the main theme is the same, the slow beat, the main theme played by the bass, and a few crisp single notes in the middle of each variation, as if the eyes are slightly misty, and then it is as if you hear a crisp dripping sound. There are slightly faster beats to play, and there are also slow whispers. It's like a mood of ups and downs, just for the person I miss - everyone in the audience is fascinated, and many people feel that this trip is worth it, because listening to Xiang Wen's performance is no less than a concert of a famous musician. It's just strange, this song is good, it's good, but it's full of sadness, and it doesn't seem to fit the mood of today's banquet.
Most of the guests in the audience didn't understand the piano, but they just felt that Xiang Wenxiang played a sad but beautiful music, and a very small number of people who had a little bit of piano research heard that Xiang Wenxiang seemed to be expressing his thoughts about someone when interpreting this "Dream".
Xiang Chaodong in the audience took a sip of the wine in the glass, revealing a wry smile. He knew that his daughter could not suppress the longing for her biological mother since she lost her jade pendant, so he chose this melody that was both depressing and sad.
If my daughter is like this, why shouldn't I be like this? Xiang Wen's song has infected Xiang Chaodong, and it has also reminded him of his longing for his wife.
Nebula used to play musical instruments in his previous world, and after crossing over to this world, he naturally studied the elegant instrument of the piano. However, with his perverted absorption ability, it is said that there is some research, but it is difficult for ordinary people to match.
As the so-called layman sees the excitement, and the insider listens to the doorway, so he can not only hear Xiang Wenxiang expressing his thoughts, but even hear Xiang Wenxiang expressing a kind of sadness about losing something important when interpreting the tune, and he can also feel that this important thing to her is related to the person she misses.
"Could it be this jade pendant?" Xingyun remembered the jade pendant engraved with the word "makeup" in his pocket.
