Chapter 965: Parents in Memories (two-in-one chapter)
"I hope that in the new year, we will all be safe and healthy!"
"I want to have a smooth life!"
"Yes, good luck!"
On New Year's Eve at the Magic City Garden House, Dai Yuni, Dai Zhenhong, Yang Huaping, Hong Xiaoxia, Yang Shihan, and this year's newly added member Yang Xiaozhao, everyone once again gathered in front of the TV and started this year's New Year's Eve dinner happily.
The feeling was no different from the courtyard house in Beijing two years ago. Yang Qian, who was busy attending the Spring Festival Gala, was still absent, but the food on the table was still as sumptuous. The red characters for blessing, red couplets, and red lanterns were still used inside and outside the house.
There were even red firecrackers (electric ones) decorated for the New Year.
Even Yang Xiaozhao's children's shoes, after being bathed by his mother tonight, were put on a small coat with red bottom and white sleeves. The fake button of the small coat hung a small Chinese knot pendant with a golden cartoon dragon embroidered in the middle——
Although this year is the Year of the Snake, Yang Xiaozhao is born in the year of the Dragon!
In addition to the top, the little girl also wore red pants. Even her short hair was clipped with two fluffy ball-like hairpins by her mother.
Of course, the living conditions of those two hairpins are worrying!
Yang Xiaozhao didn't seem to know that these two little white fluffy balls that looked like cartoon ears stuck in her hair would make her look cute. She always felt that they were superfluous, not only pulling her hair, but also very uncomfortable.
It’s comfortable, and it’s very uncomfortable to have these two foreign objects on your little head!
"Oh, why don't you pull it? Take a picture of it for mom!"
When Dai Yuni was dressing her up, Yang Xiaozhao kept raising his little hands, groping for his little head, trying to pull them off, without giving Dai Yuni a chance to take a photo!
Fortunately, at the dinner table, Dai Yuni added a strip of lettuce leaves for her, and the little girl handled them with relish, giving her mother a chance to put them on again and seize the time to take pictures.
But there are still dangers!
For example, the little one finished eating the vegetable leaves in her hand, or she didn't finish them completely, but it just stuck to the back of her hand. She didn't know how to get it back, so she came to her senses and realized that there was something on her little head!
"Here, here, here, there's Cai Cai!"
Dai Yuni saw this little guy holding up his greasy hands to touch his hair. Fortunately, she had quick eyesight and quick hands and caught it.
While holding her daughter's little hand, Dai Yuni used her other hand to pick up new vegetable leaves and stuffed them into her little hand without laughing or crying.
Really a foodie!
Dai Yuni looked at Yang Xiaozhao, who was sitting there with his head lowered and eating vegetables contentedly, and shook his head in amusement.
The little episode here does not affect Dai Zhenhong's chat.
Although Dai Zhenhong was recovering from his injuries and could not drink, he still took the cup of boiled water, clinked it with Yang Huaping, and then said with emotion:
"Yes, Lao Yang, you are right! Health is the most important thing now. My injury this time can be regarded as giving myself a chance to reflect and re-recognize myself. Only then did I realize that I am not young anymore. So starting from this year, I will work
You must have both work and rest, and balance work with rest.”
“Don’t just talk the talk but walk the walk!”
Dai Yuni curled her lips, expressing that she didn't believe her father's words.
"We have to do it. From now on, if I don't have any special arrangements on weekends, I will try my best to come over and stay with us Zhao Zhao, right?"
Dai Zhenhong smiled and leaned over his head, gently touching his granddaughter's head.
Unfortunately, Yang Xiaozhao did not give her grandfather a warm response. She just raised her little head, glanced at her grandfather, and then lowered it again. The palm of her right hand faced her little face and twisted it hard, as if she could reach it with her little mouth.
The vegetable leaves stuck to the palm of her hand.
Well, they are busy right now!
"We can earn money slowly, or we can all stop thinking so much. We already have so much money at home, and it will be enough for a long time. Anyway, I think it doesn't matter if you are a little poor, as long as you are all healthy!"
Dai Yuni hummed, not wanting to appear too pretentious.
"That's the truth, but Runyuan Real Estate is such a big company. You can't say that I just don't care if I want to, right? Of course, the work load can be reduced. Your father, I don't have to worry about so much anymore, and I can delegate some power to the other people.
, wouldn’t that be enough?”
Dai Zhenhong knew that his daughter was worried about him.
His wife passed away early, and Dai Yuni lost her mother very early. This car accident also almost caused her to lose her father. Why doesn't this make her sad and anxious?
Therefore, when Dai Zhenhong spoke, he was just like Dai Yuni who coaxed her when she was a child. His tone was much less majestic and much more gentle.
"Don't talk about this, let's eat! We're a little late for the New Year's Eve dinner tonight."
Dai Yuni said.
"This is all my fault! The main reason is that I came here late, and I was a little sleepless and forgetful about food and sleep while writing the manuscript in the afternoon. I didn't pay attention to the time. I also give you a toast to your uncle! I also wish you a speedy recovery!"
Yang Shihan quickly stood up with a glass of red wine.
It was indeed Yang Shihan's fault. She should have rushed over from school at around five o'clock in the afternoon - Yang Shihan was almost in a state of creative retreat during the winter vacation. She just thought about writing the movie script and split-shot script requested by Yang Qian during this vacation.
But after five o'clock, Dai Yuni had given Yang Xiaozhao a bath, and she hadn't seen Yang Shihan yet. She called her, and Yang Shihan, who had forgotten all about sleep and food, woke up from a dream and hurriedly hitched a ride over.
"Whatever you wish to offer, just accept it as you wish. Children, please don't drink so much!"
Dai Zhenhong waved his hand.
"I haven't drunk much. I don't usually have the chance to drink this. It's just the Chinese New Year. I also want to taste the taste of the red wine from the good vintage that Uncle Dai mentioned."
Yang Shihan sat down with a smile.
While everyone was chatting and laughing over the New Year's Eve dinner, Hao Qiang's sketch "Father's Love Like a Mountain" appeared on the TV screen.
The sketch "Father's Love Like a Mountain" can actually be seen from the name. It is about the relationship between children and their fathers.
Its focus is like many stories with similar themes. The father has worked hard all his life and still needs to worry about the future happiness of his children, but he does not pay attention to the real needs of his children.
But Hao Qiang’s sketch is still as funny as ever!
On the one hand, their script is well written. It not only has a profound conception and complete structure, but also wraps it up with a plot that is beyond the audience's expectations, but is reasonable and worthy of being moved!
On the other hand, these veteran comedians are so good at amusing the audience. Just looking at their expressions and listening to their dialogues makes me feel like these baggage are shaking louder than the last!
"Ouch, why is this skit so funny? I almost burst into tears laughing!"
Dai Zhenhong was not too moved by it, but he laughed constantly while watching the sketch.
Maybe it was because of this month's cultivation that he completely relaxed his body and mind and could watch the entire skit calmly. Dai Zhenhong also specially turned off his mobile phone and declined other people's New Year greeting calls and text messages. He just wanted to spend time with his daughter.
, granddaughter, celebrate the New Year happily. Naturally, like his daughters who like to watch these "young" actors' sketches, he can patiently appreciate the laughter in them and laugh together!
Of course, Hao Qiang's skit did not make Dai Zhenhong sentimental. This is not necessarily the case when Yang Qian appears and sings the song below!
"Prose Poems Written by My Father"? (Note 1)
When Dai Zhenhong heard Dai Yuni happily calling Yang Xiaozhao, "Look, daddy is coming out, is daddy there?" subtitles popped up on the TV, telling him the title of the song Yang Qian was going to sing.
In fact, Dai Zhenhong didn't really care about the name of the song Yang Qian was going to sing.
He turned around and looked at his granddaughter's reaction with a smile.
Yang Xiaozhao actually still doesn’t know what his father’s appearance on TV means, let alone where his father has been these past few days.
However, the little girl who can already call her mother and occasionally say "baba" seems to understand the meaning of "daddy" in her mother's words.
Her bright big eyes followed her mother's fingers and looked at the TV.
At the beginning, Yang Qian hadn't appeared on TV yet, and the camera only showed the celebrities in the audience applauding, and the audience who cried cooperatively!
After the piano prelude started for a while, the camera cut back to the cleared stage, showing Yang Qian standing there holding a microphone!
Huh!
Does this person look familiar?
Yang Xiaozhao blinked, her long and beautiful eyelashes flickering. When her father raised the microphone and the camera took a close-up, she finally reacted.
"Well!"
The little girl was a little surprised and pointed at the TV with her mother with her thin white fingers.
It seems that it was not her mother who told her, but she was the first to find out that her father was on TV.
"Yes! Who is it?"
Dai Yuni asked her with a smile.
Dai Yuni wanted her daughter to review how to call "dad", but unfortunately Yang Xiaozhao didn't understand what her mother meant. She said "hmm" in a positive tone, then turned around and continued watching TV.
No matter what mom says?
Mom must have understood!
Yes, that's dad!
The little girl can go to see her father with confidence.
When Dai Yuni saw that her daughter was ignoring her, she could only shake her head in confusion.
She did not continue talking, but followed Yang Xiaozhao to watch TV.
"In 1984,
The crops haven't been harvested yet,
My son is lying in my arms,
Slept so sweetly."
Of course Dai Yuni has heard of the song "Prose Poems Written by My Father", and she had already heard it when Yang Qian took it out for the first time in October last year!
Dai Zhenhong was only injured in January this year, so this song, as Hao Qiang and others said, was purely created for the Spring Festival Gala stage, and it has nothing to do with whether Dai Zhenhong is moved or not!
However, Dai Zhenhong felt strange when he heard it.
1984?
son?
Where is this?
Not to mention that you gave birth to your son in 1984. You don’t even know where Yang Qian was in 1984! What is the content of a person who was born in 1998 singing?
"This song of his is adapted from the story he submitted. It has nothing to do with us!"
Dai Yuni seemed to see her father's doubts, and she smiled and explained to Yang Qian.
Oh, what a story!
That makes sense!
But isn't his a bit old?
Although Dai Zhenhong thought the song sung by Yang Qian was interesting, he thought about it first due to the logic of his age.
If you gave birth to a child in 1984, you must be older than yourself?
Dai Zhenhong actually got married and had children relatively late, but no matter how early he was, he would not have given birth to a child in 1984.
Obviously, Dai Zhenhong fell into a misunderstanding.
Why is the song called "Prose Poems Written by My Father"?
That’s because the content of the lyrics is written from the father’s perspective!
Fortunately, Dai Zhenhong did not continue to dwell on this issue.
Yang Qian's singing can still make Comrade Lao Dai feel comfortable listening!
"Tonight's outdoor movie,
No time to see it,
My wife reminded me,
Repair sewing machine pedals”
With a weak accent, Yang Qian sang like a melancholy poet, and his voice was still spacious and beautiful when heard on TV!
But the content of the lyrics did not make his singing completely ethereal. The objects such as "open-air movie" and "sewing machine pedal" instantly brought the audience back to reality.
To be precise, it was an era when people couldn’t help but pay attention to the hard work of real life!
"Tomorrow I'm going to my neighbor's house to borrow some more money.
The child cried all day long,
Making a fuss about eating biscuits.”
Yang Qian's voice didn't seem to change much, but for some reason, the audience's mood became sad little by little, as if the atmosphere was becoming heavier little by little due to his exaggeration.
Dai Zhenhong felt a little dazed listening to it.
Of course he was not thinking of 1984.
This time point seems to be no longer so important to all the viewers, because the content in the lyrics has awakened their long-lost childhood memories.
Dai Zhenhong also felt the same. Just as he had talked with Yang Huaping before, before his family became prosperous, his mother had to go around to find food for him and try her best to prevent him from starving so that he could grow up healthily.
.
The father in the song is not necessarily just the father, but may also extend to the mother. The images of parents who stand like mountains in the audience's memory are suddenly made vivid by Yang Qian's singing!
"Blue polyester top,
The pain drills into my heart,
squatting by the pond,
Give yourself two hard punches.”
Not only is it a weak mix, but Yang Qian's just-right release of energy and wonderful articulation and pauses can give people an immersive feeling.
It seems that the man who tries hard to pretend to be strong but actually feels powerless is himself, and the self-blame in his heart is wrapping around him like a vine!
Dai Zhenhong was silent. He would not agree with such a cowardly state of mind before. He felt that happiness and success needed to be obtained by himself. But now, he seems to have woken up and understands that there are many things that he cannot do, and he also understands that ordinary people
of joy and sorrow.
Wasn't his father and mother such an ordinary person who couldn't resist his fate?
But they all unanimously gave their best love to their children
(Note 1: "Prose Poems Written by My Father" was originally sung by Xu Fei. Xu Fei should not need to introduce too much. In 2006, she ranked sixth in Super Girl. Her works "The Fly I Want" and "That Summer" are both
Very nice! The composer of this "Prose Poetry Written by My Father" is also Xu Fei, and the lyricist is Dong Yufang. Of course, Yang Qian sings Li Jian's cover in the article.)
