Second Piano Concerto

Qin Haiou turned his attention back to the big table.Not long after his fried rice came to the table, he ate while listening, until he ate half of the fried rice, he finally understood what was going on.

Apart from Long Ge and Tan Shuo, the rest of the guests on the big table can be divided into three parties: Party A owes favor to Long Ge, Party B wants to do business with A but has been struggling with no one to make a match, and Party C is Tan Shuo’s landlord .Brother Long didn't mention Tan Shuo's house at first, and the focus of the conversation was first on the business between AB and AB. Because Party A owes Brother Long a favor, he promised Brother Long to form a business relationship with Party B. In this way, Party B owed Brother Long a favor, so B conveniently agreed to Brother Long to spare a piece of money from his shop. The place is leased to Tan Shuo's landlord.The landlord originally wanted to take back the house and start his own business, but now Brother Long found him a place with a better port than the rice noodle shop, but the rent charged by party B was the same as that of the rice noodle shop.The landlord moved the future shop to a better location without spending a penny. With such a good deed, he couldn't even close his mouth. How could he force Tan Shuo to move.

Only after Qin Haiou understood these relationships did he realize that things could still be done this way.Brother Long went around in a circle, everyone was happy in all aspects, no one spent more money, and finally Tan Shuo's difficulties were solved.Qin Haiou remembered that he had seen the shops owned by Party B when he was looking at houses in the town.Those few shops are busy shops, and all of them are fully occupied. If Brother Long hadn't come up with this method, it would be impossible for outsiders to know that those shops can be moved and rented out. I am afraid that only Brother Long can use this method. Only such people can be used.

Although all parties are satisfied with the result, Brother Long originally invited these people to help Tan Shuo solve the house problem.Tan Shuo naturally knew it well, and frequently toasted everyone at the table.

Seeing that everything was going well, Qin Haiou felt relieved and continued to eat his own meal.During the period, Xiao Hei brought him a plate of fried meat. Qin Haiou thought it tasted good, and when Xiao Hei came over again, he pulled him and boasted: "This meat is delicious!"

Xiao Hei smiled and sat down opposite him: "This is fried with the bacon made by my grandma. The bacon made by my grandma is very delicious!"

Seeing him sitting down, Qin Haiou was afraid of delaying his work, so he hurriedly said, "You are busy with your work, don't worry about me."

Xiao Hei said: "I let my apprentice do it, and now I have started to guide my apprentice."

Qin Haiou admired: "You are a master, it's amazing!"

Xiao Hei was a little embarrassed: "What is this? My grandma's cooking is amazing!" After a pause, he actively recommended, "Brother Qin, come and play in our village when you have time. I'll let grandma cook for you .Our village is great, the food is delicious, the scenery is beautiful, and the girls are beautiful!"

He said "That's great", which fascinated Qin Haiou: "Where is your village?"

Xiao Hei said: "It's not near here, it's a little far away. In the mountain, you have to take a car first, then walk or ride a horse. If you want to go, I can take you there! My grandma is too old to go out of the mountain, so I have to eat her cooking I can only go to the stockade. There are a few dishes she cooks, I still can’t make her taste, no matter how I teach, I can’t learn it, alas!”

Qin Haiou laughed.Xiao Hei said again: "Actually, I really want to take my grandma out of the mountain to have a look. I also want to go to foreign countries to see how their cooks cook."

Qin Haiou thought for a while and said: "Once, my friend and I taught a foreign chef to make tomato and egg soup. We told him the steps one by one, and he was very serious. He took a notebook and wrote it down, and then went back to the kitchen to make it. We waited. After a long time, he finally finished it and served the soup."

"How?" Xiao Hei was curious.

Qin Haiou curled his lips: "The taste is totally wrong!"

"Why?" Xiao Hei asked.

Qin Haiou smiled and said, "Because he put butter."

Xiao Hei laughed, and the two chatted for a while.While chatting happily, Qin Haiou suddenly noticed that Tan Shuo was gone. At first he thought he was going to the bathroom, but he didn't come back after a long time.Qin Haiou looked around and asked, "Where's Tan Shuo?"

Xiao Hei turned his head to take a look, got up and said, "I'll go and have a look." After speaking, he walked towards the bathroom.

Qin Haiou was a little puzzled, and sat at the table waiting, but Xiao Hei didn't even come back.Qin Haiou went to look by himself, and as soon as he walked to the door of the bathroom, he saw Xiao Hei coming out of it, and said to him: "Brother Tan drank too much and just finished vomiting, I'll go get him some soup."

Qin Haiou was taken aback, and went in to take a look, and sure enough, he saw Tan Shuo lying on the side of the sink, hugging the faucet and splashing water on his face.Qin Haiou yelled twice, Tan Shuo reacted very slowly, turned his head around after a while, and glanced at him unconsciously: "Well... a little too much."

Qin Haiou asked: "What should I do? Are you still drinking? Do you want to go back?"

Tan Shuo lowered his head, his face was almost stuck in the pool, and he didn't make a sound.

Qin Haiou grabbed him by the back collar and lifted him up a little bit. He was hesitating when Brother Long also came in. He looked at Tan Shuo's situation and said to Qin Haiou: "You can't let him drink anymore, take him back. Bar!"

Qin Haiou pulled Tan Shuo up: "I'll carry him back."

Brother Long helped to lift the man upright and threw him on Qin Haiou's back.Qin Haiou got up and took two steps, then paused: "Xiao Hei said, he's going to make some soup..."

Brother Long waved his hand: "He can't drink soup like this, I'll go and tell Xiao Hei, don't worry about it."

Qin Haiou nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Thank you, Brother Long."

Brother Long looked at him and said with a smile, "You are quite righteous, not bad."

Qin Haiou didn't know what to say, so he turned and walked out.At this time, there were still many people in the town, so he took the road with few people and walked back. As he was walking, he suddenly heard Tan Shuo scolding people on his back.

Qin Haiou was startled, thought he was scolding himself, was taken aback for a moment, then thought he was scolding tourists on the road, but Tan Shuo's voice was not loud, and his words were blurred, Qin Haiou listened carefully for a while, only to realize that he was talking Drunk talk, but who is he scolding, but he can't make out the clues, and the words are thrown upside down, messy and illogical.

But Qin Haiou still tried to communicate with him: "Who are you scolding?"

He thought about what had happened in the past few days, and guessed that Tan Shuo might have thought of Xiao Cong or Sun Chen, but when Tan Shuo heard his question, his voice gradually became quieter, and he seemed to be more awake, and he raised his head and asked: " Where are you going?"

"Go back." Qin Haiou said.

After that, there was no movement on the back.Qin Haiou turned his head to look, and it turned out that this person was not awake at all.

Qin Haiou continued to walk forward, Tan Shuoan was distracted for a while, and after a while he started talking again, this time not only loudly, but also clearly: "Listen!"

"Yes." Qin Haiou already knew that he was not awake, so he responded casually.

"Forget...your hand," Tan Shuo said, "forget...your hand..."

He repeated this sentence several times intermittently, and finally became completely silent.

Qin Haiou didn't understand why he suddenly said this inexplicable sentence, so he didn't think much about it.Compared with Tan Shuo's drunken words, he cared more about the matter itself.Qin Haiou believes that Tan Shuo's time and energy should be used in more meaningful places that Tan Shuo himself values ​​and loves more, instead of being wasted in such entertainment, or traveling around for residences and stores.A person's life is limited, but talent is priceless. For a talented and persistent musician like Tan Shuo, his efforts should be recognized and cherished. He should be free and wholehearted in a better environment. To create, instead of being traumatized and huddled in a corner where no one sees.

Qin Haiou can imagine that there will be many more things like today, or more serious things, in this ten years.When Tan Shuo reminisced about the past, he said it very simply, but Qin Haiou knew that the process must be far more difficult than what Tan Shuo said.Ten years is a long time and can change a lot of people and things. Fortunately, Tan Shuo persevered. His love for music has not been worn away by the blows of ten years ago and the hard work of the past ten years.This is a blessing in misfortune, and it is very rare.Qin Haiou knew that Tan Shuo didn't care, but he still believed that Tan Shuo should be rewarded for his efforts.He hopes that Tan Shuo's efforts will be rewarded, because Tan Shuo is the one who is truly qualified to stand on the stage and receive applause.

Qin Haiou was thinking about these things all the way, but Tan Shuo was already snoring.

The lights of the inn soon appeared ahead.
