Chapter 36: The Future Husband
I changed into new clothes and went to dinner with my sister-in-law.
After I went, I learned that there were many people who were not from the same school, and many of them were classmates in the interest class.
It's like this so-called 'class reunion' is a special session for Yanzhi.
But Changzhi is really powerful, when the dance starts, she is responsible for playing, and the piano can be played so well.
I sat in the corner with an envious face, staring at the dazzling Changzhi on the stage, and sighed lightly: "Changzhi played really well." ”
Chu Nantang smiled. He said, "People must have one or two good points, otherwise they will not be very pleasant." ”
"Hmm......" I looked at Chu Nantang and stopped talking: "Then, do you think I have merit?" ”
"Of course, there are many advantages, such as being stupid and having a big heart."
I twitched the corners of my mouth, what is the merit of that?
He glanced at Yan Zhi, who was playing the piano, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly withdrew his gaze.
Although it was a very small gesture, even a small gesture that could almost be easily hidden, it was seen in my heart.
Everything about Chu Nantang, no matter how small it is, is not a trivial matter for me.
That old man probably looks a lot like Changzhi, but he must be better and more beautiful than Changzhi, otherwise he wouldn't have forgotten it to this day.
At some point, she and a few of her friends walked over to me.
"What are you thinking?"
I suddenly raised my head, met Changzhi's playful eyes, and smiled at her: "It's nothing. I think you're playing really well. ”
"If you really compliment, then I'll take your compliment." Chang Zhi introduced me to her friend: "This is Zhang Lingsheng who Mr. Shen took as a baby, they are all friends, don't see each other." ”
"Yanzhi, you said she is Zhang Lingsheng?" Friend A looked surprised. muttered: "Mr. Shen is blind, right?" ”
Yan Zhi glanced at A: "You speak carefully, I don't want to hear any more bad remarks about Mr. Shen." ”
Friend B began to add fuel and vinegar: "It's a pity that you defend Mr. Shen so much, but Mr. Shen doesn't appreciate it at all, isn't he better for Zhang Lingsheng?" ”
"Can you make Mr. Shen care so much, is there any strength and merit? Will he play the piano so well like Changzhi? ”
I took a deep breath to myself, "I'm sorry, I can't play the piano." ”
"What? A waste who doesn't know anything, why do you live with Changzhi? Get Mr. Shen's high hopes? ”
Later, I learned that these girls were all children sponsored by Mr. Shen's charity, and even the Zhishu Academy was invested by Mr. Shen.
So why they hate my existence so much doesn't seem to be unreasonable.
Chu Nantang's face was solemn, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so I quietly pulled down his sleeve before he came back to his senses.
"It's bearable, it's unbearable, I'll help you get angry."
Yes?? Before I could figure it out, Chu Nantang had already gotten on me, and I could still communicate with him with my consciousness.
Chu Nantang: "Don't be nervous, just frustrate their arrogance, so that you won't be bullied in front of them in the future." ”
Me: "Mr. Chu." I don't care, you don't have to be like this. ”
Chu Nantang sneered: "But I care." ”
This sentence made me obediently shut my mouth convincingly. It may be that the aura is suddenly different, Chang Zhi and her friends were subconsciously silent, staring at me for a moment.
"The piano is not skilled. But the guzheng can also give you insight. Ordinary people don't have a chance to hear it. ”
Yan Zhi sneered: "Zhang Lingsheng, are you being funny?" I've never seen you practice any guzheng? Do you think that if we can't find the guzheng now, we can prevaricate in the past? ”
Chu Nantang sighed: "I don't really want to worry about you little girls, if you can find the guzheng in half an hour, I can play it for you." ”
Fang Yan looked like a good show. stepped forward and lowered his voice and said, "Zhang Lingsheng, I gave you the steps down, don't know what to do, you have to make a fool of yourself." ”
"I like to go down the stairs myself, if I don't. You just tilt your head up for me and watch. ”
"You!"
Chu Nantang looked at Yan Zhi with a good smile, in order to make me embarrassed in front of everyone, Yan Zhi spent a lot of effort, and finally found a zither back.
I was a little timid, because people are afraid of things that they are not familiar with or that they don't know at all.
Chu Nantang sat in front of the piano case with stride, stroked the strings, and was a little embarrassed: "A broken piano, although it disappoints the interest, I will play it casually." ”
I secretly took a breath: "Nantang, do you really know how to play?" ”
He smiled, "Yes." ”
"I've seen you draw, but I've never seen you play the guzheng."
"I used to have a good blood sandalwood qin, which is my favorite thing, but today, I don't know where to go, I didn't have a good qin in the past, so I didn't have any interest."
After the exchange of consciousness, he plucked the strings at random, his voice was a little dull and harsh, and he covered his mouth and laughed: "Zhang Lingsheng, if you don't know, don't be strong, anyway, everyone won't laugh at you." ”
Chu Nantang didn't pay attention to it, but just communicated consciously: "I haven't played it for a long time." The hand is a little rusty, and the lady will listen to it. ”
My hand was consciously controlled by him, and he gently pressed down on the strings.
Chu Nantang thought for a while and said, "Play a general's order for my wife to increase my arrogance." ”
The timbre of the strings suddenly became clear, and a hint of surprise flashed in everyone's eyes.
The rhythm is bright, crisp, and magnificent! With this tense melody, Lian Xin also lifted up.
It seems that he really saw the soldiers approaching the city, a battle between the two armies, and between the fate of a thread, the generals on the battlefield strategically commanded their soldiers. Fight your way to the enemy.
I'm really amazed, God, how deep is this skill to play such a 'general's order'?
This 'general's order' has to be convincing, and can only be described in four words - amazing!
One song is over. The audience fell silent, I don't know if they haven't recovered from the shock yet, or if they are dumbfounded.
Chu Nantang left my body and smiled at me: "How?" ”
I looked at him in amazement, and I didn't know what words to use to express my excitement and excitement at this moment.
After that, Changzhi and a few of her close friends hid far away, and when they saw me coming, they also took a detour.
I thought it was quite boring, I wanted to talk to Chang Zhi and go home first, but when I saw that she was hiding from me, I just left the dinner party with Chu Nantang.
As soon as I walked out, a cold wind poured into my neck, I covered my neck, and when I raised my eyes, a woman in her thirties came from the darkness.
She was wearing a long cheongsam with a lotus background, a fox fur coat around the outside, delicate makeup, and a cigarette in her hand.
I subconsciously glanced at Chu Nantang, I didn't know when he was gone, and then I realized that living people couldn't see him at all, and I didn't have anything to be nervous about.
"Zhang Lingsheng?" She spat out a puff of smoke and asked me in a languid, sexy voice.
"Hmm...... You are? ”
"I am a teacher at the Yanzhi Art Academy, but I am also the owner of a piano shop, my name is Xiang He."
"Good to the teacher." I shook hands with her, only to feel that her fingertips were very cold.
"My piano shop is nearby, just now a group of little kids came to borrow the piano, I don't think they understand? I just took a broken piano casually, but I didn't expect you to play such an amazing tune. ”
I'm just borrowing flowers to offer the Buddha to myself, where do I know how to play the guzheng?
"I'm sorry Teacher Xiang, it's not early, I'll go back first."
"Won't you sit with me? I have a good blood sandalwood zither there, and I think you'll be interested. ”
My heart moved, and I turned back and asked, "Blood sandalwood?" ”
Suddenly, Chu Nantang's warning came to my mind: "Don't be fooled, she is not so kind." ”
I didn't have time to find out when it started, I was already able to communicate with his consciousness, I listened to Chu Nantang's words, and clearly rejected her.
Strode away and got into the last bus, and when I was seated, Chu Nantang appeared beside me.
"Nantang. Didn't you say you had a favorite thing before? It's also a blood sandalwood, maybe ......"
"Yes and what, and what is not?" He interrupted me: "This woman is trying to lure you there, no, exactly. It's leading me through. ”
I suddenly stared at Chu Nantang with wide eyes: "She can see you?" ”
"Well, probably, I vaguely feel the breath on her, not like an ordinary living person. She should have been a dead person, right! ”
I shuddered, although I have seen a lot of strange things, but I still feel a chill when I encounter them inadvertently.
Later, because of the return to his hometown, Xiang He's memory was diluted by joy.
Grandma's body bones are not as strong as before. It's only been half a year, and I'm really reluctant to leave my grandmother.
On the night of their return, the grandfather and grandson talked for the night. Suddenly, my grandmother got up from the bed, pulled out a very inconspicuous little iron box and handed it to me.
I was playing with the little box in my hand, and I couldn't open it.
"Grandma. What is this? ”
"Grandma doesn't know what it is!"
I couldn't help laughing: "It looks like a broken iron box!" ”
"Although it is a broken iron box, according to the ancestral teachings, I still put it into your hands."
"Zu Xun?"
Grandma sighed and pondered for a long time before saying, "I just heard some fragmentary words, saying that this box has a lot of energy hidden, and as for what kind of energy, no one knows." It's just that this iron box will be passed down from generation to generation, and when someone is destined to open it, it can be opened. ”
"Someone who is destined?" I twisted it vigorously for a long time, but the iron box still didn't move, and then I gave up.
"Grandma, it seems that I am not this destined person."
Grandma pondered, "Maybe it's your future husband." ”
After hearing this, my face was hot, and Chu Nantang's figure flashed in my mind, and I was a little embarrassed to say, "That...... When do I tell him to try it? ”
"You said Mr. Shen?" Grandma asked subconsciously.
"Huh?" I stared at my grandmother in surprise: "Grandma, are you serious?" Mr. Shen is a big round older than me! ”
Grandma slapped her forehead: "Yes, but Shen Xianxian looks quite young." ”
I wiped a cold sweat: "Grandma, Mr. Shen looks young now, and in a few years, he will be old!" ”
Suddenly, there was a burst of irrepressible laughter from the next room, and suddenly my heart was cold, and I made a silent gesture to my grandmother, this wall ...... There is no sound insulation at all!
