Chapter 36: A Step That Can't Be Taken

This time, the 50th anniversary of the founding of Zhiyuan Middle School, from Principal Gu to teachers of various subjects, and even non-staff members, all attach great importance to it.

The music teacher, Ms. Guo, is the artistic director appointed by the principal this time, and is responsible for the scheduling and rehearsal of each program. After repeatedly confirming with Lin Zhiyi, the leader of the Hot Wheels band, whether he could return to school on time to participate in the performance, he still kept the band on the program list.

He still remembers the boy who stole the drum, heard that he was hospitalized with a broken hand, as the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break his muscles and bones, and it is only less than a month, and he can play the piano? But the boy's tone on the phone was so firm that Mr. Guo couldn't help but choose to believe him.

Yang Xichen, the president of the drama club, also left a deep impression on Mr. Guo, this girl who was more handsome than a boy actually wanted to perform a musical at the anniversary celebration, and he sternly refused. But she insisted on performing on stage, and finally arranged a campus sketch for their drama club, hoping that they would sing without acting.

In the period of welcoming the 50th anniversary of the founding of the school, Mr. Guo can be said to have lived every day, and finally on March 28, 2013, Zhiyuan Middle School officially ushered in his 50th birthday. Lin Zhiyi also came on time to report to Mr. Guo the day after tomorrow that the plaster on his hand had not been removed, but he promised, "Teacher, this song." I can do it with one hand. ”

According to the agreement with his son, Mr. Lin also came to the scene. I was also invited to the VIP seat, unlike other parents, who could only squeeze into the runway on the playground to watch the performance.

Principal Gu was the first to take the stage to deliver a tirade, compressing the time for other performances, and everyone else hurriedly finished performing their own shows, and the Hot Wheels band didn't want to compress it for a minute, insisting on singing the whole song.

Teacher Guo told him to hurry up and sing the chorus directly, but these little guys started from the prelude and didn't want to give in for a minute. Led Zeppelin's guitar rhythm is unstoppable.

Yuan Shanshan's ethereal voice sounded in the playground, "A."

Yuan Shanshan closed his eyes and quietly felt the recollection of music on the playground, because there was no roof of the concert hall, the sound of music became chaotic after it reached the air, but it was also wrapped in the sound of nature, wind, grass, and even magpies in early spring.

After a period of singing, she opened her eyes, but saw two familiar figures in the pile of parents by the playground, she rubbed her eyes, she couldn't believe the two people she saw, at this time, she had missed the next street shot.

"Yuan Shanshan!" Lin Zhiyi played the keyboard with one hand, trying to stabilize the rhythm of the band. "Sing the next line!"

However, after a small section, Yuan Shanshan still did not open his mouth to sing.

What she saw in the crowd was no one else, officially her own parents. They wore factory uniforms and stood out among the costumed parents. Coupled with the dissatisfaction and resentment revealed on their faces, Yuan Shanshan was so shocked that he didn't dare to move.

Yuan Shanshan never told his family about his participation in the band, nor did he inform them to come to the school's anniversary. How did they suddenly appear here?

Yuan Abao's fists were clenched, and the green tendons on his neck were highlighted, he would never have dreamed that his daughter would sing on stage, wasting precious study time. Although the school is tuition-free, the cost of living at this school is twice as expensive as Hope Middle School.

She doesn't want to work in a food stall, I'm afraid it's also to be able to sing with those young ladies. The whole family struggles for life, but she enjoys here.

"Yuan Shanshan, what are you doing?" Qian Wenwen put down her bass, walked to the front of the stage, grabbed Yuan Shanshan's microphone and began to sing. But except for Lin Zhiyi, everyone else in the band was out of rhythm.

Teacher Guo looked at the chaotic stage and hurriedly let the next program, the sketch of the drama club, come to the stage.

"Mr. Guo, I'm sorry." This can be said to be the most failed stage performance of Lin Zhiyi's music career.

"You! Get off the stage! Teacher Guo didn't want to say anything, the leaders of the school were watching from below, and Lin Zhiyi's father was also among them, "The person you are sorry for is yourself." ”

Lin Zhiyi looked at his father, who was sitting next to the school leader, and there was still no expression on his face.

After Yuan Shanshan stepped down, she was taken home by her parents. The two of them didn't speak politely, and directly dragged Yuan Shanshan home roughly.

The members of the band also drifted apart with their respective instruments in the chaotic backcourt cast.

After the next program started, Mr. Lin said goodbye to the school leaders and said, "I still have some things, so I'll leave first today." ”

The leaders laughed and gave way to him.

"Daddy." Lin Zhiyi found Mr. Lin before he got in the car and left, Lin Zhiyi wanted to explain to him that it was just an accident, and that his band would never have such a performance accident in normal times, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say anything, and he remembered what his father often said.

Failure is failure, and only the weak make excuses for their failures.

"Let's go home together." Mr. Lin didn't accuse too much, just glanced at the two fingers that Lin Zhiyi picked up on his hands, "It's all like this, what kind of band are you playing." Don't waste time on music in the future, it's not impossible for a child like this to play games when he has free time. ”

"Not so, Daddy! Our band is the best in the whole school, and it can even be said that it is the best in Pearl City! What you see today is just an accident! ”

Hearing Mr. Lin say this, Lin Zhiyi still couldn't help but argue.

"And then?" Mr. Lin asked disdainfully, "You are the best in Zhucheng, hehe." This is a small city with a population of 5 million, do you know how many people in China are studying music? ”

"As long as we are willing to work hard, we will definitely be able to achieve the top in the country."

"Is it useful to work hard? I don't want to fight with you today, go home with me first! Mr. Lin said in a commanding tone.

Lin Zhiyi also knew that after returning home, what awaited him would be endless disputes between him and his father.

He shook his head and rejected Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin no longer insisted on it, got in the car and left alone.

Lin Zhiyi stood in place in a daze, thinking about today's stage tragedy, what Yuan Shanshan saw that made her panic, and she couldn't even sing.

"Is that her parents?"

"Lin Zhiyi!" Qian Wenwen was in the distance, and after seeing Mr. Lin's Bentley car walking away, she came over to comfort Lin Zhiyi, "I'm sorry, I messed up this time." She deliberately took the mistake on herself, and she understood that the person who was strange in Lin Zhiyi's heart now was Yuan Shanshan, not her. In doing so, it shows her empathy even more.

"It's not your fault. Wenwen. He comforted Qian Wenwen, who was leaning on his arms, maybe this accident could be avoided by letting Qian Wenwen be the lead singer at the beginning this time.

"I saw that Yuan Shanshan's parents rudely brought Yuan Shanshan home just now, probably angry for her performance on stage. Her parents looked so vulgar. ”

Qian Wenwen's original intention was to continue to belittle Yuan Shanshan and her family in front of Lin Zhiyi, but Lin Zhiyi's first reaction was still worried about Yuan Shanshan, "No, I'm going to see her." ”

"This is someone's family matter, is it really appropriate for you to go over like this?"

"I think Yuan Shanshan didn't look right after seeing her parents today, you don't know, the situation in her family is a little complicated, I'd better go and take a look." If her parents don't let her continue in the band, it's going to be in trouble. ”

Hearing Lin Zhiyi say this, the satisfaction that Qian Wenwen had just gained disappeared all of a sudden. Yuan Shanshan made the scene so ugly, why was Lin Zhiyi still thinking about her. She angrily grabbed his clothes and refused to let him go,

"Teacher Wang!"

Hearing Lin Zhiyi call the name of the head teacher, Qian Wenwen let go of her hand, but when she looked back, she didn't see a single figure.

Lin Zhiyi can't say that he cares about Yuan Shanshan so much, probably because he was the one who originally wanted to form this band, and he was the one who spent a lot of effort to find Yuan Shanshan as the lead singer, which added a heavy shackle to his heart.

Yuan Shanshan's bungalow was right in front of him, but the sound of quarrels coming from inside made Lin Zhi stop.

Yuan Eucalyptus hid behind the haystack in front of the door and cried loudly, repeating in her mouth, "Don't beat my sister!" Don't hit my sister anymore! ”

"Do we pay you to sing?" Yuan Abao hit Yuan Shanshan's body with a pair of powerful arms that had been trained by polishing steel bars.

"You don't do the job you find well, you know how to play!"

Yuan Shanshan's screams came from the house, "Dad, I was wrong, I will never go again!" ”

Lin Zhiyi, who had never seen this kind of formation, was frightened stupidly, how could he have thought that there were still people in the world who would beat their own flesh and blood like this.

Listening to Yuan Shanshan's heart-rending cry, Lin Zhi also wanted to kick open the door of Yuan's house, take Yuan Shanshan home, and leave this hell on earth.

But in reality, he couldn't move his feet. Even if he just took a few steps further and comforted the frightened Yuan Eucalyptus, he couldn't do it.

He knew how to deal with academic problems, musical skills, but nothing about how to deal with violence.

"Wenwen is right, this is Yuan Shanshan's family matter, and he is an outsider, so he is not suitable for meddlers."

After the beating and scolding in the house gradually subsided, Lin Zhiyi found a reason for himself to leave. He walked all the way back to his home in a trance, Aunt Deng had already prepared a table of dinner, and Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin sat on the sofa discussing the new laws and regulations.

Seeing that Lin Zhiyi's expression was a little wrong, Mr. Lin also retracted his words and wanted to count him. Just wanted to say something else, but Lin Zhiyi came over and hugged him, crying like a child, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault!" ”
