Chapter 9 (for [Book Friends 160...... 263] Addition)
(There are two more chapters to update later, and the monthly pass list has been squeezed down, brothers and sisters, ask for a monthly pass!! )
"Give." handed a thermos cup to Shizuka, and said left and right: "Drink some hot water first, I'll catch pheasants, and I'll be back in a while." ”
"Hmm." Shizuka said with concern: "Brother, it's dark, be careful." ”
"Don't worry!" Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly and said, "If you're tired, go to the tent to rest for a while, and I'll be back soon." ”
Zuo Xiaoyou took the Swiss Army knife and walked towards the mountain forest, at this time it was completely dark, and the whole mountain was silent, which seemed a little gloomy. Shizuka, a ten-year-old girl, is inevitably a little scared in this environment. But the bonfire in front of her gave her great courage. In order to strengthen her courage, Shizuka added a few more pieces of firewood to burn the fire even more.
On the other side, Zuo Xiaoyou successfully shot a pheasant with a saber, picked some wild vegetables, and some not too fresh mushrooms, basically all the ingredients for tonight.
When she returned to the camp, Shizuka was reading a book in front of the campfire, and when she heard footsteps, Shizuka looked up and saw Zuo Xiaoyou coming back, and stood up happily: "Brother, you're back!" ”
"I'm back." Zuo Xiaoyou walked over with a smile and said, "I hit a pheasant, and some wild vegetables and mushrooms." I'll clean up the pheasants, and you clean the wild vegetables and mushrooms. ”
"Hmm." Shizuka nodded, took the mushrooms and wild vegetables, took out a stainless steel lunch box from her backpack, put the mushrooms and wild vegetables in it, and followed the left and right to the stream to wash them.
The water was cold, and when Shizuka cleaned the mushrooms and wild vegetables, her hands turned red and looked pitiful.
But Shizuka didn't feel cold, because she was already stunned by Zuo Xiaoyou's technique.
Generally, the traditional method is to soak the chicken in boiling water and scald it, so that the chicken feathers are easy to pull off, but the left and right are not. He directly brushed it with a Swiss Army knife a few times, only to see the knife light flickering, and shaved the chicken feathers clean.
After that, the pheasant was disemboweled, all the dirt was taken out, cleaned, and then several cuts were made on the chicken, some seasoning was taken out, and the seasoning was smeared on the chicken in a movie-like manner, and finally the chicken was pierced with a thick branch, and said with a smile: "Okay." I'll roast the chicken, and you will make a wild vegetable and mushroom soup. ”
"Hmm." Shizuka nodded repeatedly, in fact, there were not many mushrooms and wild vegetables, and a stainless steel lunch box could cook them. There is a lack of conditions in the mountains, everything can only be simple, Shizuka used a lunch box to cook some soup, the taste will definitely not be very good, but in the mountains, it is already very good to be able to drink a sip of hot soup. What's more, there is also a roast chicken on the left and right!
Zuo Xiaoyou cut the roasted pheasant into several pieces with a Swiss army knife and put it in a bowl, and said, "Okay, let's eat!" ”
"Hmm." Shizuka put the boiled wild vegetable and mushroom soup on the stone and said, "Brother." You eat too. ”
Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "Eat together." ”
There is nothing to say about the taste of the roast chicken, even if it is accompanied by a tasteless wild vegetable and mushroom soup, it is delicious. The meat of pheasants is firm and the taste is not comparable to that of domestic chickens. Shizuka eats very sweetly.
After the meal, the two put away the dishes and chopsticks, planning to clean them when they got home tomorrow.
Climbed the mountain for a day. Even if she rested in Zuo Xiaoyou's arms for a while halfway, Shizuka still inevitably yawned after eating.
Zuo Xiaoyou added some dry branches to the fire and said, "Don't go to bed immediately after eating, come, sing a song and listen." ”
Shizuka rubbed her eyes without spirit and said, "Okay! But when I'm done, my brother wants to sing too. ”
"Of course." Zuo Xiaoyou took out a harmonica from his backpack and said, "What are you singing?" I'll give you accompaniment. ”
Shizuka looked at the starry sky and said, "Then I'll sing a song "Little Star"!" ”
"Okay." Thinking of the melody of "Little Star", Zuo Xiaoyou played the harmonica.
At the moment when the prelude melody ended, Shizuka opened her mouth and sang: "Twinkle and twinkle, the sky is full of little stars......" (The ghost knows what the Japanese lyrics are, so let's make do with Chinese lyrics!). )
The melody of this song "Little Star" is simple, and the lyrics are very short, and in less than a minute, Shizuka finished singing the whole song.
It is worthy of being a children's rhyme, short and capable.
Zuo Xiaoyou did not dislike the shortness of this song, and still applauded Shizuka's sweet voice.
"Hehe...... Shizuka smiled blushingly and said, "Brother, it's your turn." ”
"Okay, I'll sing a song about the stars, too." paused: "Friendly reminder, it's my original work." ”
"Wow!" Shizuka suddenly chirped excitedly: "It must be very good, come on, brother." ”
Zuo Xiaoyou clenched his fists, brewed his emotions for a while, looked at the starry sky, and sang: "The starlight is brilliant, and it comes to you through the night." Young heart, with that stirring mood......"
The left and right are singing "Starlight" by Luo Xu, a veteran singer in the Chinese music scene.
In 1995, Luo Xu won the first place in solo singing at the 8th "Golden Deer Cup" International Pop Music Festival in Romania, the largest in Europe, with this song "Starlight", which caused a sensation in the entire Chinese and even the world pop music scene.
Luo Xu also used this song to become a god, from an unknown little person, quickly became one of the most important first-line singers in the mainland, in the nineties, few people in the mainland have not heard this song.
When Zuo Xiaoyou was still a junior high school student, when he heard this song for the first time, he was moved by the song and melody, and even bought a genuine tape for this purpose, spending 12 yuan!
By the way, pirated tapes at that time cost two dollars a reel, and the sound quality was no different from the genuine ones. From this, you can see how much Zuo Xiaoyou likes this song. And singing this song in this environment is very appropriate and good.
Shizuka was fascinated by what she heard.
Although she couldn't understand the lyrics.
After singing the song, Shizuka applauded vigorously: "It's good, it's so good!" ”
"Listen to it!" Zuo Xiaoyou smiled.
"Uh-huh." Shizuka nodded again and again and asked, "Brother, what's the name of this song?" ”
"Starry." "It's a song I wrote in the United States two years ago. After a pause, he looked into Shizuka's eyes: "I haven't sung this song to others, you are the first." ”
Shizuka's heart was shocked, and a taste called sweetness came to her heart, and her face was red, like a sweet apple.
Seeing Shizuka's reaction, Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "It's late." Go to sleep! ”
"Hmm." Shizuka and Zuo Xiao got into the tent and each got into their sleeping bags. Although she is very shy, after a tiring day, Shizuka has long been tired and falls asleep.
Zuo Xiaoyou arranged a maze with his mind, so that the beasts from the outside world could not enter here, so he fell asleep with peace of mind.
In a blink of an eye, the next day, Shizuka and Zuo Xiaoyou, who were full of spirits, continued to descend the mountain.
Although it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, the speed of going down is much faster than going up. At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the two came to the bottom of the mountain. I took the tram back to the city, and in order to save time, I took a taxi and went home.
When I got home, it was just getting dark.
"Dad, Mommy, I'm back!" When he pushed the door in, Yoshio Gen and Shizumi were having dinner when they saw Shizuka and Zuo Xiaoyou walking in. Jing Yuqian immediately stood up: "I'm back!" Have fun? ”
"It's fun." Shizuka nodded happily, took off her shoes, and said, "The scenery in the mountains is very good, and the stars at night are also beautiful. ”
"Just be happy." Jing Yuqian nodded with a smile. looked at Zuo Xiaoyou and said, "Zuo-kun, Shizuka has caused you trouble." ”
"Don't say that." Left Xiao waved his hand and said, "Auntie, uncle." Shizuka I've been delivered safely, and it's time for me to go home. ”
"Don't worry." Jing Yuqian said: "The family meal has been prepared, let's go after eating!" ”
"yes!" Shizuka also grabbed her left and right hand. Said: "Brother, let's leave after eating!" ”
Seeing Shizuka's expectant gaze, Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "Then bother." ”
Shizuka suddenly smiled, put down her hiking bag, and took Zuo Xiaoyou to the bathroom to wash her hands and face, ready to eat.
Seeing that his daughter and Zuo Xiaoyou were so close, Yuan Yoshio and Jing Yuqian looked at each other and tacitly agreed.
During the meal, Shizuka chattered about the experience of the past two days, especially last night, Zuo Xiaoyou sang a song "Starlight" composed by herself, which was taken out by Shizuka and commented.
"I couldn't understand the lyrics, but they were really nice." Shizuka said excitedly, "I've never heard such a nice song. ”
"Oh, really?" Yoshio Gen and Shizue were curious: "What song makes Shizuka like it so much?" Zuo Jun. ”
Zuo Xiaoyou drank a flavor of soup, and said with a smile: "A song I wrote two years ago is actually not very good, but Shizuka likes it." ”
"No, it's really nice." Shizuka said hurriedly.
"Haha, it doesn't matter if it's good or not, but since Shizuka likes it, then Zuo Jun must sing it to us when he has time." Yoshio Minamoto said with a smile.
"Definitely." Zuo Xiaoyou nodded with a smile and revealed the matter of this song. But Shizuka puffed out her mouth, obviously angry at her parents' little talk about the song, and at the same time a little anxious: Brother, why don't you sing it? Sing it, and mom and dad will know how good this song is.
Although she was dissatisfied with singing, Shizuka quickly forgot about singing when she continued to tell interesting stories about mountaineering and descending, and when dinner was over, she finished telling what had happened in the past two days, and Yoshio Gen and Shizumae who listened kept smiling and nodding, and also expressed their gratitude to Zuo Xiaoyou for taking care of Shizuka in the past two days.
After a few polite words, he said goodbye and went home. And Shizuka hasn't taken a bath for two days, which is too uncomfortable for her, who has a habit of cleanliness. As soon as I sent Zuo Xiaoyou away, I hurried to put the bath water in the bath.
In the living room, Yoshio Gen and Jing Yuqian sat together, and Jing Yuqian asked, "What does your husband think?" ”
"Good." Yoshio Gen nodded: "Very capable, and very good at taking care of people, Shizuka likes it too." ”
"Since my husband sees it this way, I guess it can't be wrong." Jing Yuqian smiled.
"Let's look at the fate of the two children!" Yoshio Gen fiddled with his pipe and said with a smile: "Zuo Jun said that he had no marriage plans for ten years, but now it seems that it has created an opportunity for Shizuka." ”
Jing Yuqian nodded with a smile: "This is fate." ”
"Perhaps!" (To be continued.) )
