Chapter 36: Going Backwards and Waiting for Love (5)
Ask for favorites, ask for recommendations.
Miao Miao's cousin Xin'er stayed at home with her elders, quietly reading the information of the epidemic, browsing the stories of the world, and staying at home with her relatives.
After experiencing this epidemic, this junior girl understands a lot.
Several relatives in the family are fighting on the front line of the fight against the epidemic, unable to enjoy family affection and reunion.
Especially her favorite sister Xinxin, who is sweating and raining in a hospital in Jiangning City at the moment.
Dad and aunt-in-law are also doing their best in their respective positions, and even Miao Miao's brother has become a glorious volunteer to assist community cadres in grassroots work, leaving early and returning late every day, and they are very busy.
Xin'er's volunteer application has not yet been approved, so let's stay at home with my family honestly.
This is the tenth day of staying at home, and Xin'er, who is active by nature, is trying to organize the elders at home and play a trick at home, for which she specially formulated a plan.
Xin'er took the elders to watch the blockbusters of recent years in three days, "The Climber", "Chinese Captain", "Wolf Warrior" series, "Ip Man" series, and the Chinese New Year film "Embarrassing Mother......
A thoughtful girl even downloaded old movies such as "Thrilling", which reflected the SARS battle 17 years ago, from the website, and four generations of a family watched the movie excitedly in the small living room, commenting on the plot.
Mrs. Grandma Yi has been the pillar of the community singing class for the elderly and the leader of the square dance for many years, and she can be regarded as the literary backbone of the elderly team.
Especially when the teacher who teaches dance can't come due to something and dances square dance, she will be pushed to the front by her old friends to lead the dance.
Since the death of my wife, in order to pass time, I have participated in the elderly singing team and danced square dances for almost seven or eight years, and I have never appeared in front of the children.
When Xin'er arranged for her to have two special performances every day, an elderly girl soloist for everyone in the morning, and a square dance for the children in the afternoon.
The old lady of the Yi family, who has always been down-to-earth and generous, suddenly became shy, wanting to perform for the children, but also afraid that she would not sing well, and the old lady stood on the "small stage" vacated by the children for her, that is, an open space in the living room, with red faces.
The eldest sister of the Yi family encouraged her mother and assigned her a performance task, "Mom, you are an old revolutionary who has been on the battlefield for a long time on the three-foot podium, and we all know that you join the singing team on time and on time every day, dancing square dance, and we have never seen it." Now I will give you a chance to report on the performance and put on a good performance. ”
The other children who were already sitting on the sofa and small stool echoed the voice, and at the same time responded with warm applause, and the children and grandchildren were looking forward to the old man's performance.
Looking at the enthusiastic eyes of her children and grandchildren, the old lady of the Yi family cleared her throat, clasped her hands in front of her abdomen, raised her chest and raised her head, and began to sing her favorite and best song series to the children, "Without the Communist Party, there would be no New China", "Singing the Motherland", "My Motherland and Me" and other red songs.
The old lady of the Yi family has left her hometown in Shandong for many years, but the native accent has not changed and her sideburns have declined, and her Mandarin contains a strong Shandong flavor, her feelings are sincere, she sings with her heart, she didn't read the songbook, and each song was sung word by word by her who was too old.
The lack of breath has a small flaw when ventilating, but what touches people is that the old man is singing with his heart, sincere emotion, which makes Xin'er's eyes hot.
