Chapter 2 Returning to the Age of Twelve (First Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
(All are scheduled to officially exceed 3,000 today.) Thank you brothers and sisters for your support, thank you, thank you, thank you very much! The panda was moved and wanted to cry, not much to say, today's four watches. Once again, thank you to every brother and sister who supports the genuine subscription, really, really thank you. ๏ผ
"Little right, little right! Get up, your dad should talk about you later. โ
Zuo Xiaoyou slowly opened his eyes and looked at the woman in her thirties in front of her, her eyes were a little dull.
"Up." The woman patted Zuo Xiaoyou's forehead: "I just got in bed after the summer vacation, and I will be spanked if I don't get up again." โ
This is a very ordinary woman, dressed plainly, with an ordinary appearance, but her voice is very soft, and her mouth is a plus.
"Mom......" Zuo Xiaoyou still didn't move, just stared at her blankly.
"What for?" Seeing Zuo Xiaoyou looking at herself stupidly, the woman smiled and said, "Sleep stupidly? I don't even know my mother anymore. โ
After a moment, Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head, sat up, looked at his bare upper body, as well as his hands and feet, and silently walked out of bed, standing in front of the furniture-inlaid mirror and looking at himself.
Rustic middle parted head, immature face, body that has not yet grown, wearing only a pair of big pants.
That's right, this is what I looked like in the sixth grade of elementary school. Twelve-year-old self.
"Don't stink, wash your hands and face, and eat." Mother urged again.
"Oh." Zuo Xiaoyou looked at his room, yes, it was his home in Beihe.
Walked over to the wall calendar and looked at the time.
June 1997.
His brain was running rapidly, and he remembered that he started his summer vacation on June 26, 1997, because he graduated from primary school, there was no summer vacation homework, and the vacation time was very long, which was the most relaxing long vacation in his student career.
In 1997, he was 12 years old. Mom......
Zuo Xiaoyou walked out of the room quickly, and saw a man sitting at the dining table eating breakfast in the living room.
A man who is exactly the same as the old beggar in "A Chinese Ghost Story".
"Daddy." Zuo Xiaoright's voice trembled a little.
The man turned his head and frowned: "Hurry up and wash your face and get dressed." โ
"Oh." Zuo Xiaoyou's father is a strict father, and he has been very strict with his learning, conversation, and image since he was a child.
Strict fathers are easy to teach introverted and quiet children, and Zuo Xiaoyou is such a situation.
Hurry up to the bathroom to wash your hands and face, and by the way, I washed my messy hair, and combed it for three or seven minutes, and the whole person looked a lot fresher.
When I went back to my room, I put on a bright yellow T-shirt with half-sleeved sleeves, a pair of ordinary dark gray shorts underneath, and sandals on my feet. It's all stalls, and it's all fifty yuan on the whole body.
Zuo Xiaoyou was born in a county under the jurisdiction of Beihecang City, and in 1997, the average salary of regular workers was more than 400 yuan, and there were many odd jobs, such as young people who helped people look after shops and sell clothes, and their wages were only 200 yuan.
Zuo Xiaoyou's father's name is Zuo Zhongtian, the workshop director of a foundry company, and his monthly salary during this period exceeded 700 yuan. In the county seat, the income is relatively high.
And Zuo Xiaoyou's mother works in a bank and handles millions of dollars every day, but none of them is her sad money counter...... However, the income of bank employees is still quite good, with a salary of thousands of yuan per month. It is higher than Zuo Zhongtian's salary.
My mother is a good wife and mother, although she is very busy with work every day, she does a good job of teaching her husband and children, and the whole family is very harmonious. If it weren't for the car accident six years later, Zuo Xiaoyou would have had a happy and happy future.
"Blackie, time." When getting dressed. Left and right said lightly.
"June 26, 1997, three months before Charlotte was reborn."
"Charlotte's time of death?"
"December 6, 2015."
Is there still eighteen years......
"Blackie, thank you." Zuo Xiaoyou said softly: "Although it's just a dream, thank you for letting me see my parents again." โ
"......" Xiao Hei~ said: "Enjoy these eighteen years, there will be no more." โ
โโฆโฆ Thank you. โ
After breakfast, my parents rode their bikes to work.
There are no motorbikes at home. In these days, motorcycles are still a luxury, and they are the wedding companion of many young people, and the quality is very inferior. Motorcycles that do not exceed 3,000 yuan often fail to ignite. Especially in winter, don't want to run your motorcycle without kicking for half an hour.
Zuo Xiaoyou still remembers that even in 2003, the year he left the county, accompanying motorcycles was also the mainstream of the local area, and it only cost 20,000 yuan to marry a daughter-in-law. If the conditions are poor, 10,000 yuan can make do.
Moreover, the man's parents do not need to prepare a separate house, and the daughter-in-law marries and lives with her parents.
In those years, there really was no situation where you couldn't afford to marry.
In 1997, in this small county, the monthly expenses of a family of three were 500 yuan.
After the parents left, Zuo Xiaoyou walked around the house, looking at every familiar scene and every familiar object, and his eyes were a little wet.
Wiping away tears, sensational gods are the most annoying.
Run back to your room and open the piggy bank. There was a thick pile of bills inside, both large and small, and after counting, there were six hundred and twenty-three pieces in total. These are the pocket money he has been saving since he can remember, eight or nine years!
With the money in his hand, he packed up, went out to the bus station, and went straight to the city by car.
It takes an hour and a half from the county seat to the city, not because the road is far away, but because the driver has been walking ten meters and stopping for two minutes when the car is leaving, and stopping for two minutes when walking ten meters, until the car is almost full. And the speed is very slow, just to pull more people halfway, so that people can die in a hurry.
I finally got to the city, and I swore that I would never take a bus again. Along the way, there were several times when he hated to kill the driver's turtle grandson.
When he arrived in the city, Zuo Xiaoyou found a musical instrument shop from memory.
The musical instrument store is located in the business district of the city center, the store is not large, only 30 square meters, and there are not many musical instruments in it, most of them are small and medium-sized pieces such as guitars, flutes, erhu, etc., and the largest piece is an electronic organ.
This can't be helped, Cangshi is still a city that does not enter the stream at this time, and it was 1997, and it would be good to have these things sold in musical instrument stores.
The boss is a rock and roll youth in his thirties, dressed in a 'thunderbolt' outfit, comparable to the killing of Matt in later generations.
"Kids. What to buy? "The rock youth was playing with the electric guitar, and when he saw a half-sized boy come in, he sighed in his heart: It's another one who can't buy it.
"I'll look at the guitar." Zuo Xiaoyou looked at the guitars in the store, they were all very ordinary goods, and the price was basically three or four hundred. There are also good ones, but there are only two handfuls, both of which are thousands of dollars.
Zuo Xiaoyou didn't plan to buy a good guitar and asked, "How much is the cheapest guitar you have here?" โ
Sure enough, it's a poor ghost.
The rock youth pulled a somewhat old guitar from the shelf and said, "Two hundred and five." โ
"Two hundred!" Left Xiaoright blew on the guitar, and a layer of dust kicked up. Confused rock and roll young man's face: "It's been so long, I don't know if I can still play?" โ
"Ahem!" The rock youth snorted twice, swept the dust off his face, and said angrily: "Kid, this guitar is a little old, and it doesn't affect the play." Love to want, don't go. โ
The sense of service during this period was also very poor, and there was no concept ......that the customer was God.
Zuo Xiaoyou laughed twice: "Two hundred!" I'll take two hundred. โ
"Two hundred and five, not a single point less." The rock youth waved his hand impatiently: "If you can't do it, you can go." If you go to another house, there's no one cheaper than me. โ
Zuo Xiaoyou shook his head and said, "That's it!" I'll play and sing to myself with you, if it sounds good. You will sell me for two hundred. โ
"Yoh?" The rock youth was amused when he heard it: "Kid, can you still play and sing to yourself?" โ
"Of course." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "I can not only play and sing by myself, but also compose lyrics and music!" If you don't believe me, I'll sing you a song I wrote. โ
"Okay!" The rock youth said: "If your song is not bad, I will sell it to you for 200." If it doesn't sound good. Two hundred and fifty-one sons are not missing. โ
"Got it! Stingy bala. Zuo Xiaoyou rolled his eyes.
"Imp!" The rock youth was angry: "Hurry up and sing, if you don't listen to it, you will fuck me off." โ
Zuo Xiaoyou didn't bother to pay attention to him and took the guitar. I asked for a rag to wipe the guitar clean, sat on the stool with the guitar in my arms, and tried the sound...... It's ugly.
More than 200 broken guitars, it will be!
Deng~DengDeng~Deng~,Deng~Deng~Deng......
"Ahem!" After a witty and funny prelude, Zuo Xiaoyou coughed dryly and sang to the young girls shopping across the street: "Look at the girl on the other side, look at it, look at it, the performance here is wonderful, please don't pretend to ignore it." โ
When Zuo Xiaoyou played the prelude, the rock youth still disdained, although the prelude was very witty, it was too simple, and there was no skill at all, but when Zuo Xiaoyou opened his mouth to sing, the rock youth's face changed.
has a clear voice, revealing the comfort of eating ice cream in summer, and the lyrics and songs are really interesting, which is completely a style that is not found in today's music scene, or the mainland music scene, and it sounds a bit Hong Kong and Taiwan.
And the lyrics at the beginning of the left and right instantly attracted the attention of the young women opposite, and even everyone.
"The girl on the other side looks, looks, looks, don't be frightened by my appearance, in fact, I ......" Zuo Xiaoyou stopped playing, raised her right hand, stretched out her index finger, nodded on her cheek, and grinned: "It's cute." โ
"Poofโ" A lot of people burst out laughing.
Zuo Xiaoyou returned to the age of 12, and his appearance naturally changed to the same way he had not changed before, a very ordinary appearance.
But it doesn't matter, as long as you can dress up and wear, a 6-point passer-by can instantly become an 8-point male god.
Zuo Xiaoyou combed his hairstyle before going out, and even used scissors to cut off some places that affected the appearance, made a men's bangs, and then bought a beret in the store and wore it obliquely on his head.
And accustomed to the celebrity packaging concept of later generations, Zuo Xiaoyou knows how to get the love of fans. At his age of twelve, pretending to be cute couldn't be more appropriate.
Sure enough, a cute little boy sang a funny song, which instantly attracted a large number of passers-by, and more and more people surrounded him, three layers inside and three layers outside, especially those young people, all of whom listened to the left and right singing with intoxication.
"The sorrow of the lonely boy, say it, who understands, please throw a wink...... "Zuo Xiaoyou stopped and winked at the beautiful young girls in the crowd: "Sister, let's have a wink!" โ
"Poofโ"
"Coax me, make me laugh."
"Giggle...... The girls laughed and trembled, but the winks did not come.
Zuo Xiaoyou was embarrassed: "Hey, hey, hey...... Nobody paid any attention to me. โ
"Hahaha......" There was a burst of laughter at the scene.
"Hey! I look left and right. Look up and down. It turns out that every girl is not simple. I thought and thought, I guessed and guessed, the girls' hearts, it's really strange! Ay! It's weird! โ
"Whoa...... Oh ooooh! Whoop...... Ohโโ! โ
After singing, Zuo Xiaoyou sighed: "Alas! Forget it, go home! โ
"Little brother, don't go!" The girls really thought that Zuo Xiaoyou was going home, so they hurriedly stopped: "You sing so well, keep singing!" โ
"Yes! Oh, yes! Very nice to hear. Let's sing one more! โ
"Isn't it okay for my sister to throw you a flattering eye!"
"One wink, two winks, three winks, okay?"
"Uh...... Hehehe......" Zuo Xiaoyou turned his head to look at the rock youth: "Boss, how is it?" โ
The rock youth said excitedly: "You sing with me for an hour, and the guitar will give you for free." โ
"Really?" Zuo Xiaoyou blinked, "Didn't lie to me?" โ
"Lie that you're a grandson!" The rock youth stepped forward and said to the onlookers: "Uncles and aunts, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters, younger brothers and sisters, do you want to hear him continue to sing?" โ
"Yes!" More than 100 people responded loudly.
"Little one. The will of the people is hard to disobey, hurry up and sing it! The rock youth urged.
"Okay!" Zuo Xiaoyou cleared his throat, "Well, I want to drink some water." โ
"I'll buy it!" A seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl immediately ran to the side of the road and bought a bottle of soda: "Little brother." Here comes the soda. โ
"Thank you, sister." Zuo Xiaoyou took the soda bottle and praised it very sweetly: "Sister, you are so beautiful and a good person, you will definitely be able to marry a good man in the future." โ
The girl suddenly blushed. The scene was also bursting with laughter.
After drinking the soda and moistening his throat, Zuo Xiaoyou continued to play and sing to himself.
"Push open the skylight of the night
Say wishes to the meteor
Give me a pair of wings
Able to get close to the sun
I learned to grow as a person
Love gives me energy
Dreams are miraculous nutrients urging me to open up
Sing as much as you want
Even if no one applauds me
At least I was able to
Courageous self-appreciation
If you want to sing, you can sing beautifully
No matter how empty the stage is
Someday you can see it
Waving glowsticks"
Zuo Xiaoyou sang this song quietly. The voice is clear, the melody is melodious, and everyone is obsessed with listening to it.
At some point, the singing stopped, and after an interval of four or five seconds, everyone came back to their senses, clapped vigorously, and applauded loudly.
"Good! That's so good! โ
"Great! This song is amazing! โ
"What a beautiful song, what a beautiful song, little brother, you are amazing!"
"Little brother, what's the name of this song?" The girl who bought a soda for Zuo Xiaoyou before asked.
"Sister, this song is called "Sing If You Want to Sing"." Zuo Xiaoyou said.
"Sing if you want to...... What a name. The girl was excited: "Little brother, whose song is this?" โ
Oh, yes! Everyone woke up in shock, such a beautiful song must be sung by a household name, why have they never heard it? (To be continued.) )
