Chapter 16: Young man, sing me a Dongfang Hong
As June draws to a close, and July is about to begin, it still feels a little hot even if you wake up early. Especially if you have to carry two burdens and walk more than ten miles to reach the countryside, it will be even hotter.
"I feel like my current image must be very silly B!" Walking on the winding cement road in the countryside, looking at a motorcycle that had just run past him, a muscular man with shoes who was about 1.75 tall and could already vaguely see a little muscle, Tang Xiaoxiao, suddenly "muttered to himself".
"That's better than being treated as a psychopath!" A black-bellied system replied lightly.
Hearing this, his face was not good, and his face suddenly became even more ugly, and he couldn't help but think of his grandmother's words the night before.
"Do you know that the whole brigade (the whole village) is now saying that you are insane."
Before it was dark, grandma didn't play cards in the teahouse, she returned home with a dark face, and when she saw Tang Xiaosa, who was ready to leave home, was sitting and drinking tea in the sunbath in front of the door, she immediately reprimanded her head and face in a low voice: "What do you say you are doing all day?" It's okay to run up the slope and yell and scream, and hit the big cypress tree with your hands and feet, your hands and feet are very hard, aren't you? Then why don't you go and hit the stones? Our Tang family's face has been lost by you. β
"......" Tang sat on the chair casually, didn't understand what grandma meant, and looked at her in a daze: "...... You, what do you say? β
"Still pretending to be stupid?"
Seeing Brother Chic's expression, Grandma was even more angry, "You said that you would be embarrassed and thrown in your own home, and you were thrown into the ears of the whole team, I just went to the teahouse to prepare to play cards, and Old Man Wang stopped me and said Do I have a grandson named Tang Xiaoshi?" I said yes, what's wrong? And he said to me, "Do you know that your grandson is crazy?" Running up to the mountains every morning and yelling and jumping around is nothing, the point is that he still hits the big cypress tree with his hands and feet! The cypress tree is so hard, and it's so big, don't you think his hands hurt? β
Grandma said so much in one breath and felt a little uncomfortable in her voice, so she stopped, looked at Tang Xiaosheng, who was embarrassed, depressed and crying and laughing, and continued: "Old man Wang asked me again: Have you ever thought about treating him?" Even if you are crazy at such a young age, it is estimated that it is not very serious, and maybe it can be cured! β
After grandma finished speaking, "Old Man Wang" talked about "Zhang Dacang" - "Zhang Dacang also interjected on the side and said, Aunt Li, you have to take good care of that madman, I think he has a lot of strength, the bark of the big cypress tree is dented, in case you hurt someone, your family will be responsible." β
"Don't, don't say it!" Seeing that her grandmother was still going to talk about other people's evaluation of "being crazy", Tang Xiaosa immediately stopped in pain and speechlessness. Then, he smiled bitterly and exhaled deeply, and said to his grandmother, who was dissatisfied with being stopped talking: "Mother-in-law, I made a decision in the afternoon, and I was going to go out in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, and my clothes were all packed. β
"Didn't you say you were going to play for a week this morning? Why are you suddenly leaving now? Grandma was going to reprimand him for a while, but now that she heard that Brother Chic was about to flash, she immediately threw her stomach full of anger aside, and even felt that it was because she had scolded him just now that she didn't want to stay in her hometown.
"That's right, I'm going to work in the magic capital, and now it's time for fewer people to take the car." Tang Xiaoshi didn't say that he was going to be a star, because after today's situation, he didn't want to make extraneous branches for the time being. It's better to wait until you become famous, and then call and tell your family!
Grandma saw that he was very serious, and he was really embarrassed in the village now, so she didn't say more, nodded and said, "It's a good thing to go out to work and make money, and I won't stop you." Then you must work hard, pay attention to your safety anytime and anywhere, and don't spend money when you have it......"
When he officially went out this morning, grandma didn't want to ask his grandfather to send it, but Tang Xiaoshuang obviously couldn't accept this kind of thing, he immediately ran out with his two packages, and then strode along the highway and turned around a hole in the village, disappearing into grandma's teary-eyed sight.
If I leave so "secretly", I am afraid that from now on the people in the village will believe that I was sent to a psychiatric hospital for treatment. The dashing brother with a dark face was very depressed, he never thought that he would also be "mentally ill" one day, and it would be spread so loudly.
"Okay, you better hurry up, now is the time when there are the most people in the market, if there is no one at the end, you don't have an income of 20 yuan." The system didn't bother to continue to talk to him, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he threatened: "There are still more than 10 miles to go, and it will take about 1 hour at your speed." β
Don't say that Tang Xiaosheng also knows that time is a little tight, he studied in the countryside in junior high school, and he has walked this road more than 100 times before the highway was opened. Naturally understand how much time it takes. So he immediately sped up his feet and walked straight away.
There is a poem that describes the road of Bashu: The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky. Although An~ County is not within the range of this difficulty, there are many small hills. During the journey, Tang Xiaosheng had to go around one bend after another, climbing up the mountain here and down the other, which was so boring that it hurt. It wasn't until he had seen the middle school in the countryside that he finally stepped onto the concrete road again, and walked with motorcycles and pedestrians into the main street that seemed to have not changed much in years.
The countryside is now a street, a settlement formed purely along the direction of National Highway 319, so the closer it is to the center of the street, the more crowded and noisy it becomes, the whistle of cars, the chirping of cattle and sheep, the cry and laughter of children, the noisy people of adults, and the cries of street vendors...... The convergence of these various sounds almost makes people tremble and very uncomfortable.
Brother Xiaoxiao's face was very ugly, he stood around and looked around for a while, and asked speechlessly, "Do I really want to sing here?" Are you sure it's so loud that people can hear it? β
The system replied in the affirmative: "Yes, you have to impress them with your soulful voice." β
After a moment of silence, Brother Chic nodded stiffly, casually opened the guitar bag he was carrying, took the guitar out, and placed the guitar bag 1 meter in front of him. When all this was done, he took a few deep breaths under the pressure of his increasingly nervous heartbeat, and swept the fingers of his right hand over the strings......
In such a noisy environment, he couldn't play the guitar with all the spirit, so he could only choose a song "White Birch Forest" that was simple and easy to sing and had a relatively high singing voice
The quiet village is covered with white snow
Doves fly under a hazy sky
The birch tree is engraved with those two names
They swore to love each other for the rest of their lives
β¦β¦
Tang Xiaosa sang very loudly, or he was shouting loudly, because if he didn't do it, let alone let others listen to the song, his guitar sound might not be able to spread far, do you still want to think about rewarding or something? He didn't open his eyes, he was just "singing" loudly with his neck twisted, and the guitar in his hand was skillfully accompanied. Therefore, he did not notice that as soon as he started singing, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone within ten meters of him.
In fact, as early as the moment he opened his guitar bag and took out the instrument, he had already attracted the pedestrians around him, but Brother Chic was so nervous that he didn't look around much at all.
And at the moment when he started singing, the hawker who was originally hawking, the parents who beat the children's butts, and the butchers who were negotiating the sale of cattle and sheep...... Everyone fell silent all of a sudden, and at the same time turned around and turned their heads together to find Tang Xiaoshi, who was shouting with his eyes closed.
"Where did you come from?" A middle-aged woman carrying vegetables to watch looked at the increasingly attractive face of the chic brother and couldn't help but ask.
As if they had suddenly woken up, the people who had been quiet suddenly began to move, but this time the content of the conversation was almost surprisingly unanimous: "Where did this descendant (big brother, young man) come from?" β
Of course, no one knows the answer to this question, first of all, Tang Xiaosheng is not a person on the street, and secondly, he used to be a stupid person who studied hard, and he basically didn't like to go around, zuihou is that his changes in this week are too big, so big that he can't believe it. A tall and handsome Tang Xiaoxiao, now even his former classmates may not be recognizable.
Don't worry about me, sweetheart
Waiting for me to come back in that birch forest
The sky was still overcast
There are still pigeons flying
β¦β¦
Brother Chic didn't care what the people around him thought of him and evaluated himself, and he was still singing loudly with his eyes closed. It's really singing, not the roar it used at the beginning. If you say that at the beginning, he really didn't let go because of nervousness, shyness and other reasons. So now, when he is really immersed in the mood and feelings of this song, he no longer has the slightest nervousness and shyness, he is now just singing a story, a story about peace, nostalgia and some sadness.
The sweetheart died in the distant battlefield
She came silently to the birch forest
I look forward to watching and watch there every day
β¦β¦
No matter how long the song is, there is an end, and when Tang Xiao finished singing the song with unfinished thoughts, the guitar in his hand quickly reached the end sweeping stage, so he closed his mouth and opened his eyesβafter about 5 seconds of silence
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
"Well sung, one more!"
"It's just, it's so good, it's better than the singer on TV~"
β¦β¦
I don't know who led the applause, and I don't know who shouted loudly first to come again, anyway, when Tang Xiao came back to his senses from the applause and cheers, almost the audience rang out with the shouts of "one more, one more", and even the old man who looked almost 80 years old and the 2-year-old child who was still holding his mother's arms were also shouting: "One more, one more~"
This is the happiest moment for singers, right? Brother Xiao was so excited that his eyes were red, and he suddenly bowed deeply to the crowd that was getting more and more crowded and shouting louder and louder. After standing upright, he didn't say anything, and the people who were a little surprised that he bowed were a little quieter, and immediately said loudly: "Good morning, everyone, fathers and fellow villagers, I am the young singer Xiao Tang, and this time I hold this form of singing activity here, in fact, there is a last resort. β
He paused slightly, then watched the crowd slowly quiet, listening to him, and then continued: "I plan to start from our Shuanglong Township, all the way on foot through Yuzhou, Hubei Province, Hunan Province, Xijiang Province, Huangshan Province, Sujiang Province and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, zuihou to reach the magic city......" When he said this, his tone suddenly became low: "But because my parents were unwilling to support such an adventure as mine, I had to take this instrument and set off by myself, and now I only have a few dollars left, So I hope that all of you, aunts, uncles, brothers and sisters can sponsor me a little bit of a dollar or two......"
To be honest, rural people are more concerned about money, especially in the real society of this cheating father, if you don't save some money, what if anyone in the family gets sick? What if my son and daughter are admitted to college and get married? In short, it is not easy for anyone to pull some money out of their fingers.
Therefore, after saying the above words that made up some plots a little, Tang Xiaosheng lowered his head a little nervously, and once again played the guitar out of sight and out of mind, ready to sing two more songs......
"Young man, you sing me "Dongfang Hong", I'll give you 50 yuan~" A somewhat old voice suddenly sounded in Tang Xiao's ears, he hurriedly turned his eyes to look, but found that it was a kind old woman with white hair, looking at herself with a smile at the moment.
