Entertaining Children

  Chapter 90 Membership Card

  After eating the main course, Yin Xi couldn’t wait to say to Xiao Yao: “Okay, you can go to play the piano, and the dessert will be eaten when you come back.”

   Xiao Yao glanced helplessly at Yin Xi, wiped his mouth, got up and walked towards the stage.

Different from three years ago, because Betty had already greeted him, when Xiao Yao walked to the stage, the pianist who played on it saw him approaching, and he stood up in advance and gave up his position. Xiao Yao needs to communicate with her again.

   nodded to thank the pianist, Xiao Yao sat down on the piano bench, stretched out his hands and moved his fingers before pressing his hands on the keys.

  KevinKern is Xiao Yao’s favorite pianist and composer in his previous life. In a previous life, this one was once known as a "background music" professional. Countless radio and television stations will use his piano music as background music, especially in the early morning and evening shows. The quiet and beautiful notes can easily make people forget the upset.

  Xiao Yao has collected Cohen’s first album and his famous album "InEnchanged Garden" in his previous life. He had been listening to this album over and over for almost ten years until he crossed inexplicably. Countless moments of boredom, or lazy afternoons, he will pull out this album by Cohen, so that he can immerse himself in a peaceful and quiet atmosphere, relieve boredom or enjoy leisure, so this album is ten songs The tune was also overripe by him.

In Xiao Yao’s impression, "SundialDreams" is the most widely circulated song in "InEnchanged Garden", and it is also the one with the most morning songs and good night songs by radio and television stations. It is also the most familiar song in Xiao Yao's previous life. The most one. The first morning when Ye Jiaying lived in Xiao’s house, she was awakened by the sound of the piano. When she heard Xiao Yao playing the piano for the first time, it was this piece that Xiao Yao was practicing.

   slightly adjusted the breathing rhythm, Xiao Yao pressed his fingers on the keys, and what he played was the song "SundialDreams" by Kevin Cohen. As soon as the beautiful, pure piano sound comes out, it immediately gives people a clear and elegant feeling. Several concise high notes in the main melody are hit, as if people can hear the sound of raindrops hitting the glass window, accompanied by beautiful chords. Suddenly, people are immersed in a peaceful and quiet atmosphere, and the actions of the people dining in the restaurant are also a lot slower.

  A young man in his thirties with blond hair opened the door and was taken aback when he saw that the restaurant was quieter than usual. Then the sound of piano in his ears made him turn his eyes to the piano on the stage. Seeing that the pianist who was supposed to play on the stage was standing on the side of the stage, and on the bench was a black-haired and yellow-skinned teenager playing the piano, the middle-aged man walked suspiciously into the restaurant’s bar and asked him on duty. The foreman of the waiter beckoned...

  Betty Belet, Qin Qingyang and Yin Xi all looked at Xiao Yao on the stage with a smile. Betty took out the phone and operated it. After pointing the phone's camera at Xiao Yao, she became immersed in the music played by Xiao Yao just like Qin Qingyang and Yin Xi. Betty Betty also has some surprises in her expression. As the wife of a first-class musician, Betty's own music appreciation ability is not low.

  She did not expect Xiao Yao to play the piano, not classical or popular, but newage with a not-too-long history. At least in the United States, children rarely learn piano from newage. The melody of newage music is very different from classical music and pop music. It has no fixed pattern, no fixed music style, no beginning, succession, no expansion and contrast, the melody is like the wind flowing, I don’t know where it will be. It started at the time, and I don’t know when it will end.

   Xiao Yao’s age is able to master this form of piano music, even in the United States, where the development of music is more developed, it is rare. Moreover, the tune he played was so beautiful, but it seemed that she hadn't heard it before.

  After the end of the song, the people who enjoyed it in the restaurant naturally gave applause without hesitation. Xiao Yao got up and bowed slightly, then stepped down and returned to his seat.

   "Can you ask what the name of the song you just played?" Betty asked Xiao Yao who was sitting down after putting away her mobile phone.

  "Sundialdreams." Xiao Yao nodded and replied.

   "Good name. Also, you play very well." Betty laughed. The name of his husband's band is daydream, and both have the meaning of daydreaming, but his husband's band plays pop rock, which is far from the style of this song.

   "Thank you." Xiao Yao was polite.

   "Did you play Ye Jiaying the same song back then?" Yin Xi asked curiously.

   "No." Xiao Yao shook his head, "I was playing "Childhood Memories" at the time. But it was also in this environment at the time, so it was also a softer and soothing song."

"I remember you said that the restaurant manager gave you free desserts after playing," Yin Xi smiled. "If no one in the restaurant comes to give us something for a while, it means that you have been in vain for the past three years. No, I went back alive, and the piano is not as good as it was three years ago."

   Xiao Yao smiled bitterly and shook his head, not knowing how to refute Yin Xi’s weird logic and remarks. Looking up and seeing two people coming here, Xiao Yao exhaled and smiled: "It seems that I have lived in vain for these three years."

"What?" Yin Xi was surprised when he heard Xiao Yao's words, and then he reacted and looked behind him. Two people came over. One of the waiters was dressed up with a tray in his hand, and the other blonde youth was holding a tray. He is wearing a casual suit. Seeing him walking in front of the waiter, he is most likely the owner of the restaurant.

   "No? Really there are some deliveries, I just said casually." Yin Xi turned his head and smiled at the three of them. The remaining three are a little speechless.

   "Sorry for interrupting, ladies and sirs. Ah, it turned out to be Ms. Belet, hello." The blond young man greeted him, and said hello when he saw Belet at the table. Originally, he wanted to hire this young man to be a pianist in the restaurant and perform at a fixed time. When he saw Betty Belet in the room, his idea could only be dispelled. A teenager who can eat at the same table with Beilette should not look down on the profession of a restaurant pianist.

  "Hello, Mr. Patil, thank you for the delicious food, can I help you?" Betty greeted the blond young man, and first praised the food in the restaurant.

"Thank you for your compliment. It is our honor that you like it." The blond young Patil responded with a smile, and then continued: "In order to thank this little gentleman for his wonderful performance just now, I will send you some desserts. Please enjoy ."

   "Thank you." Betty thanked her politely.

Patil gestured, and the waiter behind him put the four desserts on the tray in front of the four.

   "Does that sound familiar?" Yin Xi asked Xiao Yao with a smile.

   Xiao Yao smiled and did not answer.

Patil continued: "The performance of this little gentleman just now was amazing. In the history of our restaurant, young customers have only played on the stage twice. The last time was three years ago. It’s said that the young man’s performance was very wonderful at that time. I am sorry that I was not there at the time and I was not able to see it. I saw the performance of this young pianist today, which can be regarded as making up for some of my regrets."

   Yin Xi smiled and interjected: "Mr. Patil, three years ago, was your restaurant in Yanjing, China?"

  Pattier nodded and said, "Yes, miss, my restaurant only opened here two years ago. It had always been in Huaxia before. How did you know?"

Yin Xi did not answer, and continued: "Although you haven't seen the young pianist three years ago, you should have heard from your staff. Was he also a Chinese with yellow skin and black hair? Went to dinner with a lady who is about 30 years old."

   Patil was surprised: "Yeah, was it that Miss was also there at the time?"

   "No, I was not there at the time." Yin Xi smiled, and reached out to Xiao Yao and said: "I know this because he was the boy who played the piano in your restaurant in Yanjing at that time."

   "Really? Oh my God," Patil opened his mouth and looked at Xiao Yao. Seeing Xiao Yao nodding, Patil repeatedly said: "Unbelievable, incredible."

Yin Xi continued to smile and said, "Mr. Patil, you and our young pianist are so destined. After three years, from Yanjing to New York, you finally met him. Now you have no regrets? "

"Of course," Patil nodded, "I'm so lucky. For this lucky, just dessert is obviously not enough." As he said, Patil took out a card from his suit pocket and handed it to Xiao Yaodao. : "Mr. Junior Pianist, this is our membership card, please accept it."

"Ah? Here is a membership card. The French is really casual in doing things. No, he must be French in doing things so casually. No wonder he speaks English with a strange accent." Xiao Yao secretly Tao.

"If I take this card, you won't want me to go up and play the tunes I played in Yanjing three years ago for you again?" Xiao Yao pretended to hesitate to accept the card handed out by Patil. , Asked jokingly

   "Of course, you are embarrassed to take other people's things for nothing." Yin Xi immediately answered, "It happens that the three of us have never heard the song you played three years ago."

Of course Patil didn’t want to force the guests to do things they didn’t want. He was hesitant at first, but the beauty who was dining at the same table with Xiao Yao said so, and quickly followed the interface: "If you want, this is us. An honor."

  Looking at the expectant gazes of several people, Xiao Yao could not wait to slap himself. Glancing at Yin Xi, Xiao Yao had to get up again and walked to the stage again.

   See you, Patil happily picked up an empty wine glass and a fork from the empty table next to him, and tapped the wine glass with the fork. The guests in the restaurant were attracted by the sound and immediately looked at Patil.

Patil said in a loud voice: "The performance of this young pianist just now, don’t you think it’s great?" After hearing the affirmative responses from the guests, Patil continued: "So, this restaurant is honored to invite him to Let's present another song." After speaking, Patil put down the fork and took the lead in applauding.

  Seeing that the young man was on the stage again and sat down in the position where the pianist had let go for the second time. The customers who had really listened well just now responded with applause. At the same time, Betty picked up her cell phone again.

   Xiao Yao had to stand up again and bowed slightly to thank him in several directions before sitting down again.

   sighed lightly, pressed the keys with both hands, and the beautiful melody of "Childhood Memories" spread throughout the restaurant.
