casual and fun

Yang Sile, Cen Wanping, and Shi Zhengguo set up a temporary tackling team. The WeChat group was named "Save Yangyang!", and the topic of daily chat was to discuss how to help Shi Nian recall Yang Sile.

According to Shi Zhengguo, Shi Nian had successfully remembered his cello class time before, and successfully remembered who he lent his winter vacation homework to.That's why Yang Sile firmly believed that as long as he could find the rules for remembering things year after year, he would definitely be able to remember them.

Helplessly, they are not like those in TV dramas, they have keepsakes and birthmarks, and the revisiting method is not very useful. After all, Yang Sile feels that he is now following the pattern of getting along with Nian Nian when he was a child, and he has not seen what Nian Nian is like. special response.

In addition to relying more and more on him, being too clingy to him.

The wave of public opinion caused by the performance accident at the end-of-term performance has been fermented throughout the summer vacation, and it broke out "moderately" during the first few days of school. No matter where Shi Nian goes, there are always a few people behind him pointing fingers.

Therefore, he became more aloof than before, and went to the group morning meeting and inter-class exercises with Zhang Qinghao, and he was serious all the way.Even when he went to Minle Building to find Yang Sile and had to ask the classmate who was next to the door to help him convey something, he remained expressionless and cherished words like gold.

To sum it up in Chen Nan's words, "Shi Nian is getting better and better".

Yang Sile disagreed: "Actually, Nian... Shi Nian usually talks a lot, and he's a very interesting person."

For example, as long as the teacher at Xiyanglou doesn't delay the class, Shi Nian will be super obedient and take the initiative to come to Minle Lou to wait for him to have lunch with him every day.

Once he had chosen the dishes and sat down in the cafeteria, Shi Nianneng talked about how ugly the teacher's PPT template was from the first class in the morning when the Chinese teacher's clothes didn't match up to the last performance class.

Every Friday after school, Shi Nian would report to Mou Xiangfei before going to teach his younger sister, making up all kinds of reasons to explain why he couldn't have dinner with him today, why he couldn't take the bus home with him, it was just one thing A first grader who has to report everything to his parents.

Yang Sile's heart has already melted.

Chen Nan expressed regret for this: "Brother Yang, if you are kidnapped by the chief, just blink."

Yang Sile: "..."

He learned the lessons of history and realized before it was too late that changing the stereotypes of his friends about Nian Nian was urgent and must be on the agenda!

Coincidentally, tonight the band has finally collected ten songs with difficulty, and everyone is determined to hold a small underground performance on the National Day. They have been rushing to the ground to rehearse on weekends, so he simply called Shi Nian together, and called it : "I want to add violin accompaniment to the song "Tonight" to increase the sense of layering and the thickness of the timbre. Let Shi Nian try."

Xie Chen saw through his little plan, and deliberately said, "Didn't you order the piano?"

Guiltyly, Yang Sile tapped the kick drum with a drumstick: "I haven't decided yet..."

Xie Chen nodded mercilessly: "I've decided."

Yang Sile: "We don't have a keyboard player, who will play the piano?"

Lin Li crossed Erlang's legs and looked at Xie Chen: "Isn't this ready-made?"

Xie Chen: "I only have two hands."

What Yang Sile was waiting for was his words: "So, the cello is better, just the cello."

Xie Chen put down the bass: "The piano is better, just the piano."

Yang Sile nodded and said, "It's not a solo, you can only choose one of bass and piano. Xie Chen, you choose."

"piano?"

"My brother will."

Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive.A childish voice suddenly came from the stairs in the basement.

Shi Nian was carrying the cello on his back, and Mou Xiangfei's younger sister was sitting on his arm. He explained with a slightly embarrassed expression: "The boss upstairs told me that you are in the basement, and asked me to come down directly to find you..."

He seemed to be speaking to everyone present, but his gaze was always on Yang Sile, and he didn't dare to look at other people.

Yang Sile put down the drumsticks, jumped up from the back of the drum kit, walked up the stairs in three steps at a time, and stretched out his arms to take the little girl into his arms.

"It's okay to hear that, I'm talking about you." Yang Sile laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, "Are you tired from the journey? Drink some water and take a break. My water glass is right next to the drum stool, so don't worry."

Shi Nian was embarrassed, and followed him down the stairs: "Let me hug you."

"It's okay." Yang Sile patted the little girl's back and asked her, "Brother likes to hold children, do you mind if I hold you for a while?"

The little girl shook her head, and replied in a childish voice: "Brother Xiaobai hugged me all the way, it was very hard."

Yang Sile hugged the child with one hand, and pressed Shi Nian on his stool with the other, unconsciously speaking in the same tone: "That's right, Brother Xiaobai has worked hard, let's let him rest for a while. "

Shi Nian sat behind the drum set and drank Yang Sile's water without distinguishing between them.He took down the cello, nodded to the rest of the band members with a stiff mouth, as a greeting.

Lin Li returned the salute, leaned into Xie Chen's ear and said, "Xie Xiaochen, do you feel that there is something wrong with this picture?"

And Xie Chen kept staring at this strange little visitor, only caring: "Who is your brother? Can he play the piano?"

Chen Nan stretched out her index finger and scratched the little girl's skinny face, and was also very curious about it: "Is your brother interested in playing in a band? We don't include food, shelter, or money here. Opportunities are rare and come quickly."

Since Yang Sile knew that this was Mou Xiangfei's younger sister, he must also know who the "brother" she was talking about was, but it was hard for him to reveal the answer.

Regardless of whether Shi Nianji remembers it or not, the fact that he followed him to the hospital cannot be revealed yet.

"My brother is my brother, Brother Xiangfei." The little girl told Xie Chen proudly, "He is the first grader in Qing Jiangyin, so amazing."

Chen Nan's brain crashed on the spot: "Qingjiang Yinzhong, the first grader, also named Xiangfei...I only know one, and he sits behind me."

Yang Sile put on airs: "Mu Xiangfei? Is he your real brother? What a coincidence?"

Before the little girl said anything, Shi Nian raised his head and looked at Yang Sile who was standing beside him: "Mu Xiangfei has something to do today, please ask me to take care of his sister." He wrinkled his nose at the little girl, "In the end, the big performer Ladies, as soon as I heard that I would come to see your rehearsal in the afternoon, I clamored to come to see you too, so it shouldn't disturb you, right? She's very good."

The little girl nodded hurriedly: "Well, I will be very good."

Yang Sile's limbs and body were softened by Shi Nian's helpless and gentle eyes, so he sat down and squeezed with him to share the not-so-spacious stool equally.

"No, no, we're discussing the accompaniment of "Tonight." He rubbed Shi Nian's shoulder, bubbling with happiness, "We'll give it a try when you rest up later."

Like a frog boiled in warm water, Shi Nian is already used to physical contact with Yang Sile. What is this level compared to being hugged and sleeping by him?

He bent down, opened the cello case, and said directly: "I don't need to rest, let's start directly."

The behavior of Chen Nan and Lin Li was not so natural.Last time the two of them were suspicious at most, and they didn't take it seriously when they were joking, but this time they are basically sure.

The two opened their mouths slightly, glanced at each other at the same time, and immediately reached a consensus in silence—the captain of their own team and the principal of the school band are either already dating or are about to get married.

It seems that the leader of his team has fallen even deeper, it's over!

Xie Chen saw that Chen Nan and Lin Li were holding the guitar and winking at each other, while he was excluded, somewhat awkward.He cleared his throat, turned to Lin Li and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Li bumped his knee with his knee, and smiled sloppily: "Don't ask, it's not suitable for children."

Xie Chen didn't defend himself, he was bumped by this leg and his body was tilted along with the stool, and he almost fell to the ground.Lin Li stepped on the horizontal bar under the stool with lightning speed, pulled him to her side, and asked nervously, "Sorry, sorry, are you okay?"

As soon as Xie Shenfu raised his head, he met Lin Li's worried eyes, who were close at hand. He panicked and pushed her away in a hurry, took the bass from the floor stand next to him, buried his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ……I'm ready."

Lin Li didn't think there was anything at first, but when she saw Xie Xiaochen's reaction, she suddenly felt something was wrong.She turned her face away to look at the opposite side, and Chen Nan happened to be flirting at her.

"Are you okay~" He hugged a ball of air imitating Lin Li's movements just now, and then turned around 180 degrees to play Xie Chen, mouthing shyly, "I hate it~ I'm fine~"

Lin Li raised her middle finger.

Xie Chen looked at her carefully, Lin Li glanced at her out of the corner of the eye, immediately added an index finger, and made a gesture to him: "It's going to be a formal joint practice, I'm happy, hahaha, Xie Xiaochen, how about you?"

Xie Chen was very unfamiliar with the emotions surging in his chest at this time, so he tentatively replied: "...Well, I am also happy."

Yang Sile didn't notice the strange atmosphere between the vocalist and the bass player, and his attention was always on Shi Nian.

He moved Shi Nian to a bench that was stacked upstairs, and let him sit next to the drum set: "I'm sorry, I'll buy a folding chair of the right height online later, so you don't have to be so tied up next time gone."

"It's okay, this is pretty good." Shi Nian focused on reading music and answered casually.

The little girl squatting between the two rows of people held her face and shook her head: "It's not good, the posture is out of shape!"

Shi Nian took the time to stare at her: "Don't imitate me! Treat this as a concert hall."

The little girl remembered what he taught, to keep quiet when going to the concert, shrank her neck for reason, shut up and didn't speak.

Yang Sile had to admit that his Niannian had become someone else's elder brother, and he had a bit of the majesty of an elder brother.

However, every time he was alone with himself, he instantly returned to being a child, no matter whether he was going to the cafeteria or returning home from school, he couldn't leave him for a step, as if he had to be close to him to feel at ease, really...

So happy, so wonderful!

For Shi Nian, he is the only person in school who knows that he has amnesia, and he is the person he can trust and rely on most.Yang Sile is secretly happy but still has worries. If things go on like this, he may become withdrawn every year and dare not make new friends, then he will not be happy and wonderful.

So he encouraged Shi Nian's band to give it a try and also had this consideration in mind.He wanted Shi Nian to start by integrating into his social circle, slowly step out of his comfort zone, and become bolder.

Shi Nian was unaware of Yang Sile's good intentions, and acted like a businessman, playing the piano strictly according to the score and not participating in any discussions.

For the first time, Chen Nan played a wrong section and stopped midway.

The second time, Lin Li hummed and found that a certain line of the chorus was twisted, dragged the chair over to discuss with Yang Sile how to change the words.

Xie Chen also suggested that it might be better to raise the cello by half a key, after all, the tone of the song "Tonight" is relatively more high-spirited.

Shi Nian made no comment, had no objection at all, ran to the corner by himself, tuned the piano patiently, listened to the pitch with his ears, and returned to the band after confirming that the tune was right, and joined them for the first time. Three times the fourth time the fifth time.

Chen Xu, who didn't have to go to work today, walked down from the front desk, sat on the stairs and watched them warm up, and the picture of himself rehearsing here before slowly emerged in front of his eyes.

Before school started, Yang Sile brought the unvoiced demo of "Tonight" to him, intending to persuade him to extend the lease period of the venue.After listening to it with headphones on, it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel it, but it was indeed far from touching people's hearts.

So the next day, he finally waited for someone who wanted to take over the shop, and he was not in a hurry to rent it out. Instead, he said that he would rent it out after the National Day.He really wanted to see what kind of tricks this group of stunned youths could play, whether their live would be a success or a complete failure, and if they were a complete failure, what kind of situation would they face.

He was really curious.

Now that I have finally heard the lyrics of "Tonight", it seems that there are some signs of success.It's a pity that the arrangement is still too tender, adding everything to it means destroying everything.

Heh, a group of little ones, it's impossible not to stop them.

When they had finished this process, he stomped his feet abruptly, drawing the attention of the six people below to himself: "Hey, have you heard of 'Lessmore'?"

All six looked up at him.

Chen Xu knew that Yang Sile was the leader of the band and the first songwriter, so he said to him: "All the points are piled up together, and showing off skills is not as ostentatious as you are."

Yang Sile had listened to this song too many times by himself, and he had long since lost the sense of strangeness and surprise, but he was quite happy to have a completely different voice appearing at this moment.

He smiled generously and said, "Boss Chen——no, Mr. Chen, I have no skills to show off, I just listened to it too many times, and I want to try any new ideas."

Chen Xu pointed at Shi Nian with his eyes: "I haven't seen this cello player before. It must be the first time for him to listen to it, right? Ask him how he feels."

At first, all eyes were on Shi Nian.

Embarrassed, Shi Nian replied bluntly, "I... don't feel anything, it's fine..."

Chen Xu stretched out his index finger and tapped the ground: "I don't feel it is the biggest problem."

Shi Nian was startled, and turned his head to look at Yang Sile suddenly: "That's not what I meant!"

Chen Xu pressed on step by step: "Then what do you mean, describe it?"

Yang Sile comforted Shi Nian: "It's okay, there is still a lot of room for revision, and it's a good thing to find problems. You can rest assured and say whatever you want."

Xie Chen, who was the second composer, echoed, "Well, let's talk."

With so many expectations flooding in at once, Shi Nian swallowed, feeling very uneasy.

He didn't have any research on rock, or even pop music as a whole.Even in the school band, he just played the piano step by step according to the teacher's design and the score he got. He didn't think about other things except how to play better.

Now that he was suddenly asked to comment, he didn't have any confidence at all, he was afraid of showing his timidity in front of Yang Sile.He even couldn't help but regret: It would be great if he could listen to a little rock music, after all, Yang Si Le likes it so much, he should have learned about it long ago!

Shi Nian was about to cry, but he held the bow and said blindly: "I think... the cello can be placed in the second half as a finishing touch... Maybe..."

Chen Nan was confused: "Is the beginning too thin? After all, the drum beat before the chorus is also very weak, and it can't catch the audience's ears."

Chen Xu said: "First of all, we have to figure out, are you going to sing a love song?"

Yang Sile has the most right to speak: "No. The most important thing about love songs is the lead singer, but what I want to express is the atmosphere of the entire band. Everyone's expressiveness is very important."

Chen Xu: "Isn't that right? Since we want to express 'everyone', the layering is the most important thing. I didn't hear any layering just now."

Yang Sile understood what Chen Xu meant.

He took out a pencil from his schoolbag, and wrote and drew on the score: "The cello is moved after the second chorus, and the verse will follow the previous one."

He looked at Xie Chen with glowing eyes: "How about adding an intro at the beginning?"

Before Xie Chen could speak, Yang Sile had already called Lin Li excitedly: "At least it's the last song, so let's make it more handsome. Let's not 'advance', just repeat the chorus The most lyrics are advanced, stuffed into a second beat, and sang on an empty beat. Come and try!"

Lin Li picked up the music score, stared at the signal he gave, and followed his two taps with hesitation, and sped up and hummed: "Like this?"

"Well. Then—" Yang Sile circled the original prelude on the score, "Change the prelude to be more enthusiastic, the bass and guitar will go straight in, and then break it with a pause at the first line of the verse, and the accompaniment will slow down ,How about it?"

Chen Xu: "It's not good. It's not enough to only use drums for intro and rely on guitars for the main song. What your lead singer's voice needs most is not the rhythm, but the melody that can suppress her. What about the keyboard player? You don't have any? keyboard?"

Lin Li was speechless: "What's wrong with my voice? Tell me clearly."

Chen Xu said bluntly: "It can't achieve the final effect that your captain wants, it's not bright enough."

Xie Chen said thoughtfully: "The piano's voice is bright, and it's more complementary to you."

Chen Nan figured out what it was like: "Sister, have you watched Japanese comics? Listen to a few LiSA's burning songs and you will understand."

Yang Sile looked serious: "I'll edit the intro again, Xie Chen, you come too, use more legato, try to play it as cleanly as possible, and feel it."

He bit the barrel of the pencil, looked back at the drum score intently, raised the drumstick with both hands, and landed it heavily on the bass drum. A more refreshing prelude.

Shi Nian couldn't get in the conversation the whole time, and he didn't have time to feel ashamed.He turned around and looked at Yang Sile, the rhythm of his heartbeat coincided with the dense drum beat just now.

It turns out that this is how Yang Sile "plays" seriously, so fucking handsome...

Chen Xu was also quite satisfied. She patted her buttocks and stood up from the stairs: "Hurry up and find a keyboard player. This song needs a keyboard player."

Yang Sile suddenly became enlightened, put away the drumsticks and called to stop Chen Xu who was about to turn around and leave: "Mr. Chen, thank you! Let's have dinner together later!"

Shi Nian, who was stunned, came back to his senses, subconsciously alert: Huh?It's dinner again!Does it mean that whenever Yang Sile wants to make friends with someone, he has to eat with someone?

The three-year generation gap, the former hot pot restaurant owner seems to be able to have three or four gaps with them, and he will definitely not agree, Yang Sile, you are dying of this heart!

Chen Xu on the stairs hesitated for a moment, crossed his hands and joked, "I'll go as soon as you treat me, and I'll pay the consultant fee."

Yang Sile grinned and smiled: "Well, I'm treating you. What would you like to eat, Mr. Chen?"

Shi Nian:? ? ?

The little girl raised her right hand and acted coquettishly at Shi Nian: "Brother Xiaobai, I want to go too."

Yang Sile was in high spirits, and responded immediately: "No problem, let's go together, and call your Brother Xiangfei too."

He walked over to pick up the little girl, and whispered into her ear, "Just say that there is a brother Yangyang who suspects that he has kidnapped brother Xiaobai, and wants to have a duel with him tonight."

The little girl put her hands around her mouth and asked in a breathy tone, "Who is Brother Yangyang?"

Yang Sile pointed at himself behind Shi Nian's back, then raised his index finger in a "shh" gesture, and said mysteriously, "Don't tell brother Xiaobai, he will feel sorry for me."

The little girl knows what "distressing" means, so she often feels sorry for her brother Xiangfei, and this feeling is very uncomfortable.He didn't want Brother Xiaobai to feel bad.

"Okay, don't tell him, I'll ask brother Xiangfei to come over after work."

Seeing that the two people who met for the first time were inexplicably close, Shi Nian asked sourly, "Yang Sile, what are you whispering?"

Yang Sile hugged the little girl and turned around, and answered with a smile: "Secret."

"What secret?" Shi Nian leaned over with the piano, "I want to hear it too."

Chen Nan:  …

Chief Shi, what kind of deceptive behavior is this?Are you acting like a baby with Yang Sile?

The times have changed, and he can no longer keep up with the speed of change in Xueshenren's design, it's so fucking scary!
