Chapter 1193: Their respective embarrassments, Hongdou’s comfort
"cheers!"
The glasses clinked and made a clanking sound, and everyone drank the champagne in the glasses.
Hu Youyu raised his hand and said: "It's rare for everyone to get together. I recently wrote a song, "Lonely Man", would you like me to sing it for you, and also ask Zhou Chen to comment on it for me."
Nana smiled and said: "I think singing to us is the secondary thing, and having Zhou Chen comment on it is the primary thing."
Ma Qiu Shan was even more rude and said: "Xiao Hu, let me tell you, you better stop singing. Your level is far inferior to that of Zhou Chen. What Zhou Chen sings can make us all feel the same way. You
What he sings just makes people restless."
"Master Ma, are the songs I wrote as bad as you said?" Hu Youyu asked depressedly.
Ma Qiushan said: "It's not that it's bad, it's just that it's not suitable for people of my age. Anyway, I can't understand what your song means. It's clear and watery, and it's boring."
"That's because you don't know how to appreciate it. Forget it, I told you that you don't understand either. You're playing the piano to a cow."
After saying that, Hu Youyu smiled and said to Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, when are you free, let's communicate and you can give me some advice."
Zhou Chen said: "Guidance is out of the question. If you have time, let's discuss and learn from each other."
"No problem, no problem."
Hu Youyu was very happy. Although he claimed to be a musician, he was actually a wild man who had never received any formal music study. He could still brag and show off in front of people who did not know how to do it. But since Zhou Chen's last time
As soon as the song came out, he no longer dared to brag in front of Zhou Chen.
That day, Zhou Chen's original songs, singing skills, timbre, etc. all far exceeded him. He still had this ability to distinguish, so he really wanted to get Zhou Chen's guidance.
This barbecue party was very lively. Everyone had a cup of wine, drank to their heart's content, and talked and laughed. It was so fun.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more heated, Xie Zhiyao felt that an opportunity had come, so he winked at a few people in the small courtyard.
Hu Youyu was the first to speak: "I remember when I was in high school, I wrote a love letter to a female classmate. As a result, she told the teacher and sued me for harassing her in her studies. This teacher was our class teacher, and the class teacher was also a Chinese teacher, so he became
In front of all my classmates, I read out my love letter. After reading it, they said that my vocabulary was lacking, my grammar was wrong, and my treatment of feelings was too superficial."
Everyone laughed, and Xie Xiaochun said: "Then I must ask you to find your parents."
Hu Youyu said: "I'm looking for it. My dad went there, but my dad didn't take it seriously because I've been in trouble since I was a child. He reminded me and said, if you want to write a love letter again in the future,
You have to be confident and sure first, otherwise, you will be the one who is embarrassed."
Ma Qiushan said with a smile: "The old man must have experience."
"Hahaha……"
Ma Qiushan took Hu Youyu's words and continued: "To talk about embarrassing things, let me tell you one. In high school, I worked hard for a period of time and brushed papers every day. During one class break, I suddenly picked up
After one stop, the hemorrhoids burst."
Everyone couldn't hold back and laughed like crazy. The people who were eating even threw their food aside.
Ma Qiushan sighed: "To this day, I still can't forget the way the girl at the same table looked at me. She liked me quite a bit at first, but it turned out, alas."
Nana also followed up and said: "You are not as good as me. When I was in high school, I once went to the toilet and my skirt was tucked into my pants without being pulled out, so I walked back to the classroom with my butt exposed."
Several people were stunned, especially Xie Zhiyuan and Xie Xiaoxia, both of whom looked at Nana in disbelief.
Even a boy would feel embarrassed to see someone like this, let alone Nana is a beautiful girl. Wouldn't that mean she would be completely embarrassed?
Damai was also shocked and asked: "Didn't anyone tell you?"
Nana looked helpless: "They all looked at me. I thought they were staring at me because they thought I was beautiful. I felt so happy."
Xie Zhiyuan couldn't help but ask: "Then you didn't transfer to another school later?"
Nana replied: "No."
"Then no one laughs at you?"
"It must have happened. A lot of people came to watch at the entrance of our class. Then I just tried my best to pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise, what can I do?"
Xie Zhiyuan asked impatiently: "What happens next, and what happens after that?"
"Then I didn't remember it anymore, and slowly I forgot about it."
At this time, Xie Zhiyao came to the end and said: "Actually, this is the spotlight effect. You always feel that everyone is staring at you. In fact, no one cares at all. No matter how sensational it is, it will be gone in a few days.
forget."
Xu Hongdou agreed: "Yes, so many things happen every day, how many can you remember?"
"yes."
"That's the truth."
Hu Youyu patted Xie Zhiyuan's shoulder with an experienced attitude, and sighed: "When you reach my age, you will understand that in this life, if it is just this level of embarrassment, then
I’m so happy. My brother, I fell in love with music when I was in college and started playing in a band. After graduation, I didn’t bother to find a job and just focused on playing in the band. As a result, my father was so angry that I had a stroke.
Even now it’s hard to walk on one leg.”
"I regret it. I don't have the shame to go back."
Ma Qiu Shan also picked up his wine glass with a lonely expression and said, "Yes, there are still many people who watched him build the Zhulou, watched him entertain guests, and watched his building collapse."
At this time, Xie Xiaochun also told Xie Zhiyuan about going to college. She was admitted to college, but because her family was poor and had no money to go to college, she wanted to give up going to college and work part-time, so Xie Zhiyao paid for her to go to college.
As I was talking about college, tears flowed out of my eyes.
It was precisely because of this incident that she chose to return to Yunmiao Village to help Xie Zhiyao without hesitation.
Xie Zhiyao was so embarrassed by his praise that he asked him to change the topic quickly.
On the other hand, Nana admired Xie Zhiyao. She praised Xie Zhiyao both inside and outside her words. She also said that she would establish a Xie Zhiyao global fan support club, clamoring to be the president, while Xie Xiaochun clamored to be the vice-chairman.
long.
Zhou Chen was also infected by such an atmosphere. He stared at the sky and thought of many things in the past.
Xu Hongdou originally laughed along with everyone, but when she turned her head, she found that Zhou Chen beside her had a strange look on her face and touched Zhou Chen with her arm.
"What are you thinking about? Are you so lost in thought?"
Hu Youyu laughed and said, "He must be thinking about his destined person."
"Destined one?"
Xu Hongdou looked confused and didn't understand what Hu Youyu meant.
Nana smiled and explained: "Hongdou, you came later and didn't know about this. When we all had dinner together, we asked Zhou Chen a question."
Xu Hongdou asked with great interest: "What's the problem?"
"We asked him why he came here. Do you know what his answer was? He said that he was here to wait for someone, a destined person. He also said that before departure, he made a fortune for himself and said that this trip
, you will meet your significant other, the person you are destined to be, and we always thought he was joking."
After Nana explained, she asked Zhou Chen with great interest: "Zhou Chen, it has been more than a month since you came. Have you met the destined person?"
Zhou Chen replied: "I should have met him."
"What?"
Nana just asked casually, but Zhou Chen's answer immediately confused her. Not only her, but others also looked at Zhou Chen in surprise.
"Have we really met?"
Zhou Chen smiled, his eyes swept over everyone, and stayed on Xu Hongdou for a moment before moving away.
"I think I've met it, but things in the world are unpredictable. It's hard to say whether I will get what I want in the end."
"Oh, really? Tell me who that person is? Is he from our courtyard?" Xie Xiaochun asked very gossipy.
But Zhou Chen did not answer, but changed the subject and said: "Actually, I really envy you. You may have all kinds of troubles and setbacks, but there is one thing you are better than me, and that is that you are still better.
I am different when I have relatives. I am alone in this world. It is estimated that no one will remember me one day and no one will shed tears for me."
"ah?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed suddenly, and no one knew what to say.
Looking at their expressions, Zhou Chen said: "What expressions are you looking at? I'm just sighing. There's no need to look at me with this expression. Although I no longer have any relatives in this world, the ones I once had,
There will only be more than you."
"Ayuan, I very much agree with what Teacher Hu said. If there were only embarrassing things like shitting your pants in life, you would be so happy."
Xie Zhiyuan was silent. After listening to the experiences of his brothers and sisters, he suddenly felt that what happened to him was nothing at all. He was too naive.
"Everyone has almost eaten and drank. Mr. Ma, take out your precious tea and let us drink some tea to moisten our throats."
Ma Qiushan said loudly: "No problem, I'll go get it now, you guys wait."
After drinking, everyone sat together to drink tea and eat vegetables, very leisurely.
Seeing Xie Xiaoxia still sitting there unhappy, Zhou Chen persuaded him, "Xiaoxia, are you still sad about being deceived?"
Xie Xiaoxia scratched her head and hummed: "I just feel that I am so stupid that I almost gave all my money to scammers. I am so stupid."
Xie Zhiyao said: "Xiaoxia, you think too much. You haven't been deceived. Besides, who in the world has not been deceived? It doesn't matter if you are deceived. The important thing is to learn a lesson so that you won't be deceived in the future."
Get cheated again."
"Yes, Xiaoxia, the past is in the past, don't take it to heart." Nana also persuaded her.
Everyone else was also talking to each other. They used to comfort Xie Zhiyuan, but now they are comforting and persuading Xie Xiaoxia.
The ultimate purpose of today's barbecue party is actually for these two people, to help them get out of the haze and get back on the right track.
Xie Xiaoxia was also very moved by everyone's concern and persuasion. He actually understood the truth, but this time the blow was really big, and it took so long that he still hasn't gotten over it.
Zhou Chen said: "Xiaoxia, if you still want to go to Magic City, I will find a way to find a job for you in Magic City. What do you think?"
Hearing Zhou Chen's words, everyone looked at Zhou Chen in surprise. They all knew that Zhou Chen was from Modu and relatively wealthy. When he said he would find a job for Xie Xiaoxia, he was definitely not bragging, but because he had the ability.
When Xie Xiaoxia heard this, he was a little moved for a moment. Being deceived this time actually did not make him let go of his longing for the outside world.
Xie Xiaochun and Xie Zhiyao also looked at Xie Xiaoxia, waiting for his decision.
But Xie Xiaoxia thought about it for a while, and finally shook her head and said: "Forget it, Brother Zhou, I know you want to help me, but I feel that I am too stupid to go to a big city, so I'd better continue in the village.
Learning wood carving from my master is my way out."
"Really decided?" Zhou Chen confirmed.
"It's really decided." Xie Xiaoxia answered in the affirmative.
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "This is actually a good thing. If you go out and have a try, you may be able to get ahead, but the chance is too low. You may not be rich and powerful in the village, but being with family and friends will definitely be better than going out alone.
There is so much happiness in working part-time.”
Xie Zhiyao said dissatisfied: "What are you talking about? Who said you can't be rich and powerful in the village? I am busy building the village now. Maybe one day our village will become a tourist attraction. By then, the people in the village will
They can both improve their lives and make them rich and wealthy."
Zhou Chen smiled and toasted a cup of tea: "Then I wish the president that his dream will come true."
Drinking tea makes one's stomach bloated easily. After a while, Ma Qiushan and Hu Youyu went to the toilet one after another.
Xu Hongdou sat with Zhou Chen, feeling even more curious about Zhou Chen.
She has been in contact with Zhou Chen for half a month, and Zhou Chen has always been very cheerful, as if nothing in the world can make him sad.
But the emotion and expression when Zhou Chen spoke just now reminded her of the pain she felt when she lost Chen Nanxing. No, it felt even sadder than hers, but he didn't show it.
"are you OK?"
Xu Hongdou's sudden gentle concern made Zhou Chen burst into laughter.
"What can happen to me? I know what you are thinking, but I am much stronger than you think, and I don't need comfort. I have sent away too many relatives and too many friends in my life. I look at them one by one.
Leaving me was very sad at the time, but as time went by, I gradually got used to it."
"They are no longer here, but as long as I have them in my heart and remember them, they will always exist."
Hearing what Zhou Chen said, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but think of Chen Nanxing and murmured: "Remember, does it exist?"
"Yes, it exists as long as you remember it."
Seeing Xu Hongdou and Zhou Chen talking closely together, Xie Zhiyao's eyes flashed with sadness. He actually had a good impression of Xu Hongdou, but Xu Hongdou's attitude towards him was far less good than Zhou Chen's.
He could also tell that Xu Hongdou had a crush on Zhou Chen.
The three girls, Xie Xiaochun, Nana and Damai, were also looking at Zhou Chen and Xu Hongdou. The three girls also communicated with their eyes, as if they were just watching the excitement.
