Chapter 165 – Thousand Miles Chuan-Shu
With soft music and soft light, today’s coffee shop felt extra warm. As students returned to school, Yang Yi’s business began to become more and more lively, but his focus was still on Xixi.
The little girl, like the leader, giggled around the store, followed attentively by three kittens. The three kittens were at an age when they were full of desire to explore the world, and the energetic little girl was their best companions to play with.
“Papa, I want to go to the amusement park and ride the bumper car.” The little girl panted slightly and said as she drank the milk her father made.
Xixi wasn’t very tired from playing with the kittens, but she did sweat a little, and a few strands of hair stuck to her delicate little face. Yang Yi took out her towel and wiped the sweat on the little girl’s face. Then he took out a dry towel, stuffed half of it into Xixi’s back and hung the other half on her small tank top.
“Didn’t you go there to play some time ago?” Yang Yi smiled and said, “You can’t go there every day, you can go there once in a while.”
“Okay, next time we’ll take Xiao Guai, Xiao Hui, and Duoduo together!” Xixi tilted her little head to think about it and said, “They’ll be good!”
There was a big question. Were pets allowed in the amusement park?
However, Yang Yi nodded to his daughter calmly. 𝐨𝘃𝗹.
Isn’t allowed? Hmph, in front of Yang Yi, whether to abide by the rules or not just depends on his mood.
“We have an activity tonight. First, we’ll pick up your mother, and then go shopping for clothes and schoolbags.” Yang Yi said to his daughter.
Xixi was about to enter school soon. Mo Fei discussed with Yang Yi that they should prepare everything for Xixi tonight. It just so happened that she has finished dealing with her affairs in the company, and there was no need to rush the announcement for the time being. She has to accompany Xixi at such a critical moment.
Of course, if Mo Fei was going shopping, Yang Yi still has to give her a makeover.
“Okay! Xixi misses Mama so much!” The little girl jumped up and down excitedly and said sweetly, “Last night I dreamed of Mama! Papa, do you miss Mama?”
Yang Yi smiled and rubbed the little girl’s head. “What do you think?”
“Papa definitely misses Mama!” Xixi said grinning.
Cling-clang. Another customer came. Xixi cleverly took the kittens to one side to play.
Yang Yi looked up and saw that they were two young man with guitars on their backs. Their faces were quite green1. They didn’t have long hair like those young people who often played music. They all had normal hairstyles, plain clothes and no fancy accessories.
They felt more like a student of Jiangcheng Media University!
“You two, what would you like to drink?” Perhaps it was because they felt cordial, seeing them carrying guitars, Yang Yi made the rare action of taking the initiative to greet them.
“A’Shu, it seems a little expensive!” The taller young man looked at the handwritten menu on the small blackboard, hesitated for a moment, and whispered to his companion.
Yang Yi’s ears were very flexible2 and he heard their whispers.
“It’s a little expensive, but we’ve made our first money. We should celebrate it, right?” The young man named A’Shu said with a smile.
“Okay, you decide.” The slightly taller young man must have a very shy personality. After speaking, he took a half step back to let his companion face Yang Yi.
A’Shu took out a handful of loose money from the pocket of his jeans, counted 60 yuan, handed it over, and said, “We’ll have two Mochas!”
“Are you two singers?” Yang Yi didn’t take the money but looked at them with interest.
A’shu scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, “We shouldn’t be considered singers. We are actually Jiangcheng Media University students. Just because of our interest, the two of us formed a small group called Thousand Miles Chuan-Shu.”
“……” Yang Yi was speechless. Their group name was really unique!
The taller young man also opened his mouth at this time and explained, “It’s because there is a word in each of our names. My name is Miao Chuan, and his name is Lu Xiaoshu.”
“The ‘Thousand Miles’ has two meanings. The first one is that even though we were thousand miles apart, we still meet each other3. My hometown is in the north and Miao Chuan’s hometown is in the south. I didn’t expect that we were so predestined to meet in Jiangcheng.” Lu Xiaoshu said with a smile, “Then the other meaning is achieving a bright future4. We don’t expect a bright future. As long as our group can make some fame realize our music dream, then we’re good!”
“Good.” In fact, Yang Yi thought that their ideals were pretty good, and the meaning given to their group name was also very realistic. It just that it always felt a little bit awkward.
“I think there is still hope. Yesterday we were invited to do a performance and made some money. Now, we plan to celebrate it.” Lu Xiaoshu’s face was full of happy smile, very simple happiness.
Yang Yi smiled and pushed back the money Lu Xiaoshu handed over, and said, “Since you like music, and it’s your first time coming to our shop. How about this? You sing a song for me and your order will be free?”
“Is it too cheap?” Yang Yi also asked discreetly, worried that these two guys would be embarrassed to speak.
“How could that be?” Lu Xiaoshu was very happy. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, “In fact, we don’t earn much. The boss only gives 100 yuan a day.”
Worried that Yang Yi would not be happy after hearing this, Miao Chuan pulled Lu Xiaoshu and said in a low voice, “Why did you tell everything about us?”
Yang Yi didn’t mind. He turned off the stereo and said with a smile, “Come on, sing! I’ll listen while I make you coffee.”
The coffee shop suddenly quieted down, and several guests sitting near the inner seats were not used to it. They raised their heads and looked over. Xixi also tottered over and looked at the two people curiously. The three kittens behind her were a little slower, but they also followed behind.
Duoduo ran a little fast, couldn’t stop in time, and ran into Xiao Hui’s body. The kitten was dizzy and gave a pitiful look, but unfortunately the small master didn’t pay attention.
“We sings folk songs, and if the boss doesn’t dislike it, we’ll sing you an original song of our own.” Lu Xiaoshu said. Then the two took off the guitar behind their backs, hung them on their chest, and put on a good stance.
Yang Yi smiled, spread his right hand, and made a please gesture.
After plucking the guitar strings with his fingertips, and a delicate prelude, Lu Xiaoshu began to sing: “I am lost in the northern winter, wandering in the boundless wilderness, watching a few rows of wild geese flying away, thinking of her… A face that can’t come back…”
Miao Chuan also played his guitar and sang along in harmony.
Hey, it’s pretty good!
Yang Yi was slightly surprised. He couldn’t help but stop his movements and listen carefully.
As Lu Xiaoshu said, they, the Thousand Miles Chuan-Shu, sang very authentic folk songs. The lyrics were slightly rough, but the music they played were exquisite enough to make the heart tremble.
Of course, his unrefined singing skills were as green as those of a normal fledgling singer, but Lu Xiaoshu’s voice was very good, as clean as the northern winter sky he was singing.
