Chapter 56 New Songs or Food? Ni Ye Wants All! (2/2 Ask for a Monthly Pass)
At six o'clock in the evening, Yang Huaping, who had just returned home, washed his hands and prepared to have dinner with his wife.
There were only two dishes and one soup on the table. One of the dishes was the salted fish fried by Hong Xiaoxia at noon. I didn't finish it, so I continued to eat it in the evening.
There is no way, the son is not at home to eat, the old couple who are accustomed to thrift and thrift have to cope with it like this. Yang Huaping is also a son, so when his daughter eats at home, he can take advantage of it and eat something good.
However, while they were eating and chatting about the gossip about their neighbors, the door of their home was opened with a clang of keys. Hong Xiaoxia looked over and saw Yang Qian bent over, changing into slippers.
"Aren't you going home for dinner tonight? Why are you back again?"
Of course it wasn't that Hong Xiaoxia didn't want her son to come back, she just didn't cook for him. When she saw him coming back, she became anxious. As she stood up, she began to think about whether to cook rice for her son or some noodles for him.
It took too long to cook and there was no food...
"Mom, please continue eating and ignore me. I'm just coming back to get something."
Yang Qian waved his hand and asked his mother to sit back. He hurried back to the bedroom and came out carrying the huge guitar bag.
"Are you going out again? Why did you bring the piano? There is a performance today?"
Hong Xiaoxia knew about Yang Qian's previous performance in Heyang and wanted to go there, but Yang Qian told them that it was crowded and advised them not to go.
He is old and not like a young man. His bones will probably fall apart after he comes back from the crowd.
Of course, not going will not prevent them from "spreading" the video of Yang Qian singing at the Red and Orange Festival in the community.
Yesterday when Yang Qian came back, he met the uncles and aunts of his neighbors on the road. They all praised him very enthusiastically for his good singing, and then asked him if he had a partner...
"When I'm not performing, I just go out with my guitar and sing with my friends."
"Have you eaten yet?"
"We'll eat later, I've made an appointment with a friend."
Yang Qian has no choice but Dai Yuni said that eating is important, but spiritual food is also important!
Therefore, Yang Qian had to bring the guitar over first.
…
"Why did you order takeout? And you ordered so much..."
Yang Qian waited for Dai Yuni to open the door for him, and then came in with his guitar on his back. But as soon as he entered, he saw packages of packed meals on the coffee table. Judging from the appearance, they were not for two people, and the portion for four people was not enough.
almost!
"Hehe, this is not a takeaway. I went to buy it myself. Originally I just wanted to buy two portions of beef brisket noodles, but I found out that there was roast duck rice for sale next to it. I ordered it from Du Ge last time. Isn't it delicious?
?I just bought roast duck rice again..."
Dai Yuni smiled at him sheepishly.
She is still very generous. When she buys roast duck rice later, she not only buys her own share, but also buys Yang Qian's share. Therefore, if she can't eat by herself, Yang Qian also has to support it...
"There seems to be a lot of delicious food. I heard from an aunt that there was a hammer there that was quite delicious. But I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to eat it and waste it, so I didn't dare to continue buying it."
Dai Yuni said that she has a bottom line.
"Okay, actually I want to take you to eat some of the more special Dutch cuisine, such as seafood noodles, duck rice and so on. Duck rice is actually more delicious than roast duck rice. Now that you have bought them, then
Let’s talk about it tomorrow…”
Yang Qian didn't understand what "what hammer" she meant.
"Ah? There are so many delicious foods! Why do I feel like I've lost so much?"
Dai Yuni was dumbfounded.
She really wanted to eat the delicacies that Yang Qian mentioned just listening to them. If she had known better, she would have gone to pack the meals by herself. With Yang Qian, a big native here, why would she have to worry about not having dinner?
No, what I don’t get from food is satisfaction, and I have to make up for it with spiritual food.
"Let me listen to you sing it again first. I've been looking forward to it all afternoon!"
Dai Yuni and Yang Qian sat down on the wooden sofa. She raised her buttocks slightly and crossed her long legs with nowhere to rest. She looked at Yang Qian who was sitting upright with his guitar in his arms with interest.
Dai Yuni dressed more casually in the evening, not as formal as when Yang Qian picked her up at noon.
But this casualness does not mean nakedness!
In fact, it is still a bit cold in Hecheng at night, so Dai Yuni wore a pair of plaid wide-leg pants and a white sweatshirt, which looked loose and natural, simple and comfortable.
But she is good-looking and looks good in whatever clothes she wears. She is loose and lazy and has a loose and lazy style!
She just sat there with her legs crossed, her beautiful big eyes flickering at Yang Qian. Yang Qian couldn't resist, so he could only pretend to be tuning the music and not look at her.
Don't watch too much, otherwise you will be so electrocuted that you will be unable to sing...
"Listen to this song and guess which poem it is from."
Yang Qian started playing the chord in the key of C, and the guitar fingerpicking was delicate and the sweet tone made Dai Yuni couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Still tastes like this!
Dai Yuni doesn't know how to compose, but she can tell that such a gentle and soothing prelude is just like the songs Yang Qian played before, such as "Seeing the Smoke Again", the melody is just as simple and beautiful!
The interplay of light and dark music gave her a sense of continuous night and intoxication - although Dai Yuni still doesn't know what theme this song will sing.
At least the melody is nice!
As I said before, Yang Qian likes this song very much.
How much do you like it?
Even though there was a beautiful woman sitting next to her, Yang Qian quickly got into the mood.
"When you get old and your hair turns gray,
Drowsy..."
As soon as the first two lines were sung, Dai Yuni's eyes lit up, she reached behind her butt and took out "Selected Poems of Yeats: English-Chinese" which she had read all afternoon.
It contains a lot of Yeats's poems, almost 300 pages, and Dai Yuni definitely couldn't finish reading it in one afternoon.
But when she was reading it in the afternoon, she had a profound impact on Yang Qian's current song "When You Get Old". It was at the front, and it was relatively simple and easy to understand.
really!
Dai Yuni saw the translation of the poem "When You Get Old". The opening sentence above was exactly the same as what Yang Qian sang!
"When you get old, your hair turns gray and you feel sleepy."
Just changed "the head is white" to the more smooth "the hair is white".
Of course, Yang Qian continued to sing, and Dai Yuni continued to listen to the translation.
Gradually he made more changes.
"When you get old and can't walk anymore,
Napping by the fire, reminiscing about youth.”
The original translation is only "If you are taking a nap by the fire, please take down this hymn."
"How many people have admired your youthful and joyful moments,
I admire your beauty, pretending or sincerely..."
Exactly the same as the original translation!
etc!
What are you doing?
Dai Yuni suddenly realized that there was no point in staring at the translation now! What she wanted was to listen to the music and appreciate the music, not to play the "find fault" game.
"Only one person still loves your pious soul,
Love the wrinkles on your old face..."
Dai Yuni suddenly woke up and put down the book in her hand, and her bright eyes looked at Yang Qian again, who was concentrating on playing the guitar and singing.
Yang Qian's singing is not high-pitched, but his voice is very soft and as clean as ever - this is the characteristic of his timbre that Dai Yuni has always liked. (Note 1)
After the chorus is finished, go back to the original verse.
"When you get old..."
Although Yang Qian sang the lyrics softly along with the beautiful guitar melody, Dai Yuni still heard the poetic flavor.
It feels like I used to watch those powerful hosts reciting modern poetry on TV!
The voice is not deliberately deep, but singing so softly still makes people feel emotional and sincere!
It was as if he was telling his true feelings to the wife he had loved all his life...
"The wind blows,
your news,
This is the song in my heart..."
She couldn't tell what the thoughts and emotions were in Dai Yuni's heart, but she was staring at Yang Qian's eyes at the moment, like the street lights outside the window that didn't know when they would light up, calm and tender...
(Note 1: "When You Are Old" sung by Yang Qian is Zhao Zhao's version.
Maybe everyone listens to Li Jian or Mok Wenwei's version more often, but the live version of Li Jian's singer's tune is really too high, and it is not something that Yang Qian can hold at this stage, so Yang Qian still sings the original version, and
It's also a folk song.
In fact, the original song is also very interesting. Zhao Zhao's version will be released in the Easter egg chapter for everyone to enjoy. However, it seems that only the friends from Qidian can see the Easter egg chapter...
Of course, Yang Qian's voice characteristics are different from Zhao Zhao's. Yang Qian is younger. You can understand that Yang Qian is Li Jian who sings alto. His voice is young, clean and poetic. Ahem, Xiaohan knows, Li Jian's
She is actually older than Zhao Zhao, emmm, I really can’t tell.)
