Chapter 113: Thirty Dollars and Twelve Branches
Xia Tingcicada looked at Xiao Chu, his eyes were clear and crystalline, like a bright moon in the sky.
Xiao Chu smiled warmly: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Xia Tingcicada shook his head, "It's nothing." ”
Then he lowered his head and continued to read the lyrics of "Tiny".
It's time to get ready to write a score.
Xiao Chu didn't bother her, and planned to go to the balcony to read a book.
Today, the sun is very good, and I don't have to go to work, there is a kind of lazy and comfortable leisure.
However, as soon as he walked to the living room, he suddenly heard the sound of Xia Tingcicada from behind him.
"You make me soup and write me songs, do you like me?"
Xiao Chu was stunned, turned around, and saw that Xia Tingcicada didn't know when, came to the door of the study, and was looking at him with bright eyes.
"I ......," Xiao Chu was about to speak.
Bang!
Xia Tingcicada closed the door and made him look at the wooden door widely.
Well, what is this operation?
Xiao Chu blinked, a little incomprehensible.
In the study, Xia Tingcicada leaned his back against the door, but a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes, the corners of his mouth curled, and he laughed lightly and silently.
Hum!
The last time you asked me so suddenly, I'll come back too.
It's flattened!
Putting away the little tsundere in his heart, Xia Tingcicada returned to the desk and began to write music while humming songs.
Outside the study, in the living room.
Xiao Chu looked at the closed study door and shook his head.
Then he laughed again.
I went to the TV cabinet and smoked a spare book, and walked to the balcony.
These days seem to be more lazy and comfortable.
......
Before dusk, Xia listened to the cicadas and finished the score.
After Xiao Chu finished reading the idle book, he went to a small supermarket nearby and bought some vegetables.
When Xia listened to the cicada and came out of the study after writing the score, the two happened to cook together.
It's still Xiao Chu doing it, and Xia listens to the cicada to accompany him.
Before the dish was cooked, Xia Tingcicada was hungry, and then she invited popcorn and gnawed on it while watching her busy work.
She didn't know what Xiao Chu thought, anyway, she felt that it was very good to watch others cook and eat while eating by herself!
After dinner, as usual, Xia Tingcia was responsible for cleaning up the table, and Xiao Chu was responsible for washing the dishes.
After wiping the table, I came to the kitchen and saw a large pile of messy and greasy dishes in the sink, as well as Xiao Chu bending over to clean.
Xia Tingcia went to the study, brought a mobile phone, and ordered a set of imported dishwashers online, which was delivered to the door and installed with the kind.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Chu finished washing the dishes and chopsticks, washed his hands with soap, and saw Xia Tingcicada nesting on the sofa playing with his mobile phone.
"When are you going to return to the Imperial Capital?" Xiao Chu asked.
He knew that Xia Tingcicada Emperor's work was not finished yet, and he had mentioned it on WeChat before.
Xia Tingcia said lightly: "Tomorrow night, Sister Liu will give me a two-day vacation. ”
Tomorrow night?
That is, not leaving tonight?
"Don't stay on the sofa, it's not good for your waist, you should stand up and move more. Xiao Chu was nesting on the sofa and couldn't help but remind.
Xia listened to the cicada and glanced at him, ignoring it.
Xiao Chu walked over and said, "Do you know how to play Go? Do you want us to play chess and play with your mobile phone for a while?"
Xia listened to the cicada raise his eyes to look at him, and when he heard the word "playing chess", he couldn't help but think of the night he just went home.
"Yuanyu Yuezhi" VS "Horizontal Knife at Night", her father almost ...... Well, in the end it won.
As for whether she can play chess?
Even her dad couldn't play him, so of course she couldn't play chess.
Even amateur 3 dan will not.
So she shook her head and said calmly, "What is chess?"
Xiao Chu is speechless, you can't go down, you can't get down, do you need to put on such a high posture?
Sure enough, it's a big singer, and he can really pretend!
"Shall we go out for a walk and eat less?" he suggested after a while.
This can be had, Xia Tingcicada nodded and went to change clothes.
A few minutes later, the two went out.
Xiao Chu is still a normal casual dress.
Xia Tingcicada changed into a big windbreaker, a hat, and a mask.
It's flu season, wearing a mask won't attract attention, and with the long hair falling down, as long as people who aren't particularly familiar with it stare carefully, it shouldn't be recognizable.
The two went downstairs and walked slowly, saying a word.
It's still the same as before, most of the time it's Xiao Chu who says, Xia listens to the cicadas, and only occasionally replies with a sentence or two.
Xiao Chu had long been used to it, so he didn't feel refrigerated or embarrassed.
After walking out of the community and arriving at a place with few people, Xiao Chu asked: "Your contract with Dream Music is about to expire, what do you think?
Xia listened to the cicada and glanced at him, but he didn't expect him to suddenly ask about this.
But he still replied truthfully: "Big money is always kind to me, but it shouldn't be renewed, but I haven't thought about what to do yet." ”
Xiao Chu asked, "What about Liu Jie, what does she think?"
Xia Tingcia said: "Sister Liu provided two suggestions, one is to choose other music companies, and recently several top record companies in the industry have sent cooperation intentions. ”
"The other one is to open his own studio. ”
Xiao Chu thought for a while and said, "It's true, which one does Liu Jie prefer?"
Xia Tingcian smiled lightly: "Sister Liu only provides advice, analyzes the pros and cons, how to choose, she let me decide for myself." ”
Xiao Chu couldn't help but be happy for Xia Tingcicada.
I really met a good agent.
Strong work ability, and treat each other sincerely, like a sister, she was suppressed for two years, her career fell into a trough, and she has never given up.
There is also the little girl with a round face, this little assistant is not bad, she looks stupid, but she is very reliable, carrying bags, driving, cooking, buying tickets, she can do any job, and she does it well, she can be called an all-round little assistant.
"When you left Dream Music, Liu Jie and Xiao Ai also went along, right?"
Xia Tingcian nodded and said, "Well, Xiao Ai's contract with the company expires three months earlier than mine, and he will follow me directly when the time comes." ”
"Sister Liu's is a month later than me, and it's about the same. ”
Xiao Chu looked sideways at this woman with a slender figure and a beautiful face, but only showed a pair of big eyes, and couldn't help but smile a little in his heart.
Who said that Xia Tingcicada is too cold, too straight-tempered, maverick, and an outlier in the entertainment industry, and can't get along with anyone?
Isn't this very good with the two closest people around you?
I'm afraid that those big-name actors and singers who are praised for having high emotional intelligence and good personalities rarely have such a deep relationship with their agents and assistants, right?
Suddenly, a breeze blew from afar, brushing the tips of the cicada's hair, and the soft black hair moved with the wind.
While the long hair was fluttering, a faint fragrance poured into Xiao Chu's nose.
It smells good.
After Xiao Chu was slightly surprised, he couldn't help but sniff again.
Xia Tingcicada noticed the small movement of his nose, which was a little strange at first, but then understood it again after a moment, and his pretty face turned red.
Glancing at him sheepishly, she turned her head to look ahead, pretending that nothing had happened and that she didn't know anything.
Xiao Chu saw her reaction, knowing that the small action of sniffing just now had been discovered again, and he was suddenly a little embarrassed, and smiled wryly.
But Xiao Chu is a boy in the end, he has a thick skin, and it will be fine after laughing.
The two continued on their way.
But it's really a bit cold now.
Xia listened to the cicada with a tense face and continued to pretend that nothing had happened.
Xiao Chu didn't know what to say for a while.
At this moment, a little girl about ten years old walked over with a large handful of flowers.
"Big brother, this sister seems to be angry, you can buy a few flowers and give them to her, so that she will be happy and not angry with you!"
The little girl came to Xiao Chu, looked at Xia Tingcicada, looked at him again, and said in a sweet voice.
This little girl who sells flowers has good eyesight, you can see it.
Although Xia Tingcicada was not angry, it was half right.
He looked at Xia Tingcicada.
Xia listened to the cicada without squinting and continued to look ahead, but stopped at his feet.
Xiao Chu understood.
said to the little girl who sold flowers: "Little sister, how do you sell these flowers?"
The little girl said crisply: "Three yuan for one branch, ten yuan for three branches!"
Xiao Chu was about to say that he wanted to buy three branches, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and said with a smile: "Little sister, you are not right, why is it more expensive to buy more?"
The little girl was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Three yuan for one branch, ten yuan for three branches, no ...... Oops, sorry big brother, I said it wrong!"
"Ten dollars is four branches, I said it wrong, I'm sorry!"
After the little girl reacted, she immediately covered her mouth, blinked her big eyes, and said embarrassedly, looking very delicate.
Seeing Xiao Chu looking at her and smiling, the little girl continued to say sorry repeatedly, her little face quickly turned red, and she was very ashamed.
The little girl blushed, and the Xia girl next to her also blushed.
Xiao Chu couldn't help but look left and right, compared it, and felt that Miss Xia's face was still a little blush, and it was better looking.
Although she was wearing a mask, only a little bit was exposed.
Xia Tingcicada snorted softly when he saw Xiao Chu's eyes.
The little girl who sold flowers put down her hand, knowing that the eldest brother didn't care, so she no longer covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, but she was still a little ashamed in her heart.
I sold the flowers on the third day, and I would still make such a mistake.
What a shame!
Fortunately, the eldest brother has a good temper and doesn't bother with her.
Well, I'll practice "four branches for ten dollars" a few more times in a while, but I can't make a mistake anymore.
Xiao Chu didn't tease her anymore when he saw the little girl's appearance, lest she think too much and leave a shadow because of this slip of the tongue.
He smiled and said, "Then I'll buy it for thirty yuan." ”
The little girl was happy when she heard this, and the free hand waved her fingers, lowered her head and calculated, "Three yuan a branch, ten yuan and four branches, and the thirty yuan is ...... Twelve!"
Then he raised his head, "Big brother, thirty yuan and twelve branches, what do you want?"
Seeing her cute and funny look, Xiao Chu couldn't help but laugh again.
What a lovely little girl!
Then he put away his smile and said, "Rose?"
glanced at Xia Tingcicada, but there was no reaction.
That doesn't seem to be a big deal.
"Carnations?"
Still no response.
"Starry?"
Still no instructions.
"What about the lily?"
This time, Xia Tingcicada turned his head slightly and looked to the other side.
Xiao Chu understood, and said to the little girl: "Then Lily." ”
The little girl picked out twelve purple lilies and handed them to Xiao Chu, "Big brother, twelve lilies, I wish my big brothers and sisters a hundred years of good harmony and eternal marriage!"
After scanning the code, Xiao Chu couldn't help but touch the little girl's head, and then looked at Xia Tingcicada with a flower.
