Volume 2: Jiang Nanchun Chapter 102, Write a Song for You
Yu Xiao smiled and said: "Actually, the slave family has already composed a good song for that Que Bodhisattva, and I originally wanted to wait for a few days to sing it, but in that case, there was no other way, so I had to sing it in advance." After singing, although there were still a few people who did not give up, saying that the slave family sang badly, most of them applauded, and my mother also took the opportunity to say a few words before the siege was resolved. ”
Hey, since ancient times, it has not been easy for women in Qinglou, not only to be controlled by men physically, but also to be mentally controlled by men.
Yu Xiao paused, took a sip of tea, and then said: "Later, the three deans saw that the slave family sang a new song, and the song and lyrics were still so different, and now there was no envy in their eyes, only naked jealousy. Of course, they didn't say anything directly, but when they chatted with Miss Chu Chu, everything was thorny, and they teased the slave family everywhere. ”
"These three deans are really in vain to be scholars, not only do they not have the talent to help the world, but they also have the capacity to accommodate people, how did they become the deans of the academy," Tian Zhiyu couldn't help but hate.
"However, although the three deans are not convinced, the other audience still likes the slave family's little songs, and the guests of the Drunken Immortal Building have suddenly become a lot more than usual in the past few days, and they are all here to listen to the slave family's singing," Yu Xiao looked very happy, and the depression since the recent past was swept away.
"Are the three deans embarrassed again?"
Yu Xiao nodded and said: "It was last night, it was originally the slave family and the Chu Chu girl who fought the piano, but after the fight, Ge Zhihuan, the dean of Wansong Academy, stood up and said, The two songs of the Yu Xiao girl a few days ago were really good, and the words in them were also good, but the old man heard that the scholar who wrote the lyrics for the girl is now the girl's guest of the scene, I don't know if the girl can tell these guests, who is the scholar? The old man wants to know if it is from our three major academies. ”
When Yu Xiao described Ge Zhihuan's words, he used Ge Zhihuan's tone, although he had not heard the old master's voice, from Yu Xiao's voice, Tian Zhiyu still felt the aggressiveness of this old master.
When Ge Zhihuan finished speaking, there was really a commotion below, because for a long time, everyone knew that the slave family was a performer and not a human being, and many scholars also came to support the slave family for this point. Yu Xiao saw that many people below were already disappointed, and they were about to leave, so he got up and said, what Dean Ge said is unreasonable, I don't know where to hear the gossip, these two words are all hard work of the slave family, and somehow it was rumored that there is such a scholar, and he is also a guest of the slave family. ”
Yu Xiao's voice is already good, plus three points of anger, three points of resentment, and three points of pity, any man will feel distressed when he hears it, let alone suspect that there is a falsehood in her words.
"When the guests below saw Yu Xiao say this, they immediately stopped and looked at Dean Ge with a blink of an eye," Yu Xiao still said vividly: "And Dean Ge snorted, and then said, if Miss Yu Xiao really has such talent, why didn't she ever write lyrics by herself before? If you can really write two wonderful poems like this in just a few days, why don't you write another one in front of many guests now?"
At this time, there were people below who coaxed the slave family to compose the lyrics in front of everyone, and even those who were originally neutral began to join in the fun. ”
Tian Zhiyu can imagine the scene at that time, those spectators who didn't have anything to do with them, saw a weak woman being bullied, and they didn't pull out their knives to help in their hearts, but instead watched one after another, wanting to see the excitement.
The hearts of the spectators have been connected throughout the ages.
"Seeing that the situation has become like this, the slave family knows that they can't convince these people, and I'm afraid that they won't be able to perform in the Drunken Immortal Building in the future, so they have to say to Ge Zhihuan, Mr. Ge, if the slave family happens to come up with a good song now, can it prove that there are no so-called readers, let alone any guests who enter the scene?"
Ge Zhihuan smiled a little contemptuously, and said, if you can really write a work that convinces us all, it will naturally prove that the girl Hui Zhilan has a heart, and she doesn't need any guests to enter the curtain, if you write a few sentences casually, or you can't write it, then you must give an explanation to the big guy, you must know that everyone comes to the drunken fairy building to cheer, but it is for the girl's performance and not her body. ”
The people below were coaxed again, Yu Xiao was helpless, so he had to recite the two "Nanxiangzi" given to the slave family by the son, and the slave family still remembers Ge Zhihuan's expression after listening to these two words, red for a while, green for a while, and finally turned black, and returned to their private room without saying a word. ”
After finishing speaking, Yu Xiao couldn't help but laugh softly, obviously enjoying the behavior of making the deans of the three major academies lose face last night.
Tian Zhiyu smiled and was happy for her.
When Yu Xiao's expression returned to normal, she continued: "The slave family is really very grateful to Tian Gongzi for a few words, but the slave family is curious, Tian Gongzi is so talented, why don't you let the slave family say your name? ”
Tian Zhiyu saw how crazy the scholars in this world were in Taiyuan, and he still wanted to quietly practice martial arts in Yuhang'an, if a large group of scholars came to his experimental field every day, wouldn't it delay a lot of things?
"It's not a big deal to be able to do a few songs, and it's just a fame when it gets out, Zhiyu wants to live quietly in Yuhang, and doesn't want to be disturbed, so I also hope that the jade girl can keep this secret for Zhiyu all the time," Tian Zhiyu said.
Yu Xiao still felt a pity, but she also understood Tian Zhiyu, so she said: "Since this is the case, the slave family will not say it for the time being, with the talent of the son, it is impossible to remain unknown after all, and one day it will be known to the world." ”
"That's for later, I'll talk about it later," Tian Zhiyu said: "Also, I heard Feng Sigong say in the afternoon that you are going to have a ring competition by the West Lake during the Qingming Festival, and he didn't explain it, and I didn't ask in detail, what is going on?"
Yu Xiaojiao smiled: "Well, this activity has actually been going on for a long time. Every year during the Qingming Festival, it is the day when the spring flowers bloom, and all the Qinglou in order to make a name to attract customers, they agree to hold a joint performance on the edge of the West Lake on this day, so that the citizens of Yuhang know the talents of each Qinglou. At first, it was just you performing yours and I performing mine, but later, everyone began to compete, and they all wanted to overpower each other, and slowly it evolved into the form of a ring. ”
"What is the specific comparison?" Tian Zhiyu said curiously.
"In fact, there are only four or five really big green buildings in Yuhang, and the rest are some very small ones," Yu Xiao said: "On the day of the Qingming Festival, there will be a number of platforms set up on the edge of the West Lake, and each green building can be booked one, and these four or five big green buildings will be booked in the best location, and the rest will have to occupy those in relatively remote locations." ”
"On this day, when the performance begins, each Qinglou will let its own head of the Oiran perform on stage, whether it is playing music or singing small songs, the audience can be rewarded according to their own preferences, and at dinner, which one has the most rewards, which one is the final winner. ”
It turned out to be a form of fan voting, Tian Zhiyu thought of this form, and then the talent show on TV has been using it? It turns out that it has existed since ancient times.
"By the way, Childe, last time you chatted with the slave family, you said that you could teach us some little songs, so this time the slave family and Ying'er came to ask Childe if it is convenient for him today?"
In the past few days, Yu Xiao has been satisfied with her performance, and the three first things Tian Zhiyu gave her allowed her to reverse the decline in one fell swoop, not only did she have a lot of guests again, but even the three deans who were above the top no longer deliberately made things difficult for her everywhere.
However, when she saw the scenery, she also had a deeper sense of crisis. The three poems of Arita Zhiyu can make her stand very tall, if there is no follow-up, if she falls down again, she will be even more embarrassed than before.
So she always wanted to come to Tian Zhiyu to learn from her, and while she could rest today, she took Liu Ying'er to visit directly.
Tian Zhiyu thought for a while and said, "I don't have anything to do tonight, let me think about it, how many little songs can I remember." ”
Yu Xiao hurriedly said: "Don't worry, don't worry, son, you think slowly." ”
In fact, Tian Zhiyu has already thought a lot about songs, if it is suitable for Yu Xiao, it will definitely not work if it is too exciting, and it will not work if it is too advanced, thinking about it, I still think that those classic old songs are more suitable.
After he went to get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he said to Yu Xiao: "It's still the old rule, I'll read it, you can write it, write down the lyrics first, and then tell you the tune." ”
Yu Xiao spread out the paper excitedly, studied the ink, and looked at Tian Zhiyu with a pensive face.
Tian Zhiyu's first thought was Teresa Teng's song, her song is too suitable for a woman like Yu Xiao to sing.
He thought about it carefully, and finally decided to choose Teresa Teng's most classic songs, including "Sweet Honey", "I Only Care About You", "See the Smoke Again", "The Moon Represents My Heart" and "Spring in the North".
When reading the lyrics of these songs, Yu Xiao was already shocked and incoherent, she never thought that the lyrics could be so straightforward and not obscene, brief and popular.
When the lyrics were written and Tian Zhiyu sang them one by one, not only Yu Xiao was stupid, but even Liu Ying'er, who returned to the pavilion, was immersed in the beautiful singing.
After Tian Zhiyu finished singing a few songs, Yu Xiao had already marked all the notes on the lyrics, then raised his head, looked at Tian Zhiyu with a look of adoration, and said: "Childe, Yu Xiao doesn't know what words to use to describe his mood...... After speaking, he choked up several times.
Liu Ying'er was much simpler, humming these songs, sitting next to Tian Zhiyu, pulling his arm and saying, "Tian Gongzi, can you write more songs like this in the future, Ying'er likes it so much." ”
Tian Zhiyu stroked her head pityingly and said: "Writing songs also requires chance, not something that can be written if you want to." ”
"No, I see that Tian Gongzi you write poems so fast, and you write songs so fast, what is that word called, Wen Si Quangu, it is Tian Gongzi you," Liu Ying'er said coquettishly.
Tian Zhiyu smiled and didn't answer her words, but turned to Yu Xiao and said: "These songs should be enough for you to sing for a while, I think it's the three deans, I'm afraid I won't have anything to say." ”
Yu Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, not only the three deans, but I don't think anyone in the whole Yuhang will dare to say anything." ”
"By the way, when you are fighting during the Qingming Festival, do you have any other programs besides playing and singing?"
Yu Xiao said: "Yes, there are girls who can perform dances, and some people can perform some Liyuan operas, but in general, they still play and sing." ”
Tian Zhiyu thought that on stage that day, if he performed some opera programs of later generations, such as "The Peony Pavilion" or "The Legend of the West Chamber", would it be more effective.
"What are the opera programs?" Tian Zhiyu then asked.
Yu Xiao told Tian Zhiyu all the popular opera programs in recent years, and these operas were widely circulated throughout the country, but after listening to Tian Zhiyu, he found that the operas of this era were still mainly danced, interspersed with some dialogues.
"Miss Yuxiao, if there is such an opera program, it is not based on dance, but tells a story, and this story is sung, do you think the audience will like it?" Tian Zhiyu asked.
"It depends on what kind of story it is, if the story is good and the singing is good, the audience will definitely like it," Yu Xiao said.
If it weren't for Fahai's affair that day, Tian Zhiyu really wanted to write the story of Xu Xian and the White Lady and let them try to perform it, since he knew that there was Jinshan Temple in Hangzhou, and the host was still Fahai, Tian Zhiyu decided to rot this story in his stomach.
He thought about it again, there are actually many good stories, especially Yuan miscellaneous dramas, but the only ones he can completely remember the dialogues are "The Legend of the West Chamber" and "The Peony Pavilion", these two of which he has always had selfish intentions, are reserved for Su Yijin and Nuan Yue, and will be slowly told to them in the future.
But other stories, such as Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Tianxian Pei, etc., although he can tell the story well, he can't write words and sentences that are in line with the aesthetics of this era.
Just as his heart was in constant turmoil, Ulhan's footsteps suddenly came from behind him.
He hurriedly got up, saw Wu Lihan coming over in a hurry, and saw Tian Zhiyu and asked eagerly: "Zhiyu, have you seen the thief?"
