back to innocence

When Fei Yizhen opened his eyes again, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning.

He didn't have to go to class on the weekend morning, so he ate his meal slowly, then after thinking about it, he decided not to write a new article for the time being, but to go to a movie to replenish his energy and vitality.

He went out with a small backpack on his back, took a bus to the movie theater in the city center, and then suddenly felt lonely.

He began to miss Miss Mo Yao.

He suddenly laughed. As a comrade, what he misses is not Comrade Qi Wentang who used to take good care of him and had an obvious ambiguity with him, but Miss Mo Yao, which is really strange.

But that's not surprising, the friendship between him and Mo Yao is not comparable to anyone else.They are good friends, close friends, sharers of each other's youth secrets, and intimate partners who once shared food, stories and leisure time.

If he had any reluctance to part with the past, it must be Miss Mo Yao.

Fei Yizhen walked into the cinema.

——They used to make appointments to go to the movies, and then every time they met, they would mock each other and spend time with themselves without an appointment.They will smile at each other because of the common touching plot, and they will also argue and attack each other because of the movies that they disagree with each other.

Fei Yizhen sighed: true friend, where are you?This city is so big, why have I never met you by chance?

Then he seemed to hear Mo Yao's laughing glee: Who told you to be so nerdy?

The movie he watched today was The Lady in Red.The girl in red, Anna, was born in a slum, but she has a cheerful and optimistic personality.Work in a tavern.One day a sad gentleman walked into the tavern, and wondered why Anna could keep a bright smile despite the boss's abuse, the guests' unreasonable troubles, and the heavy work.

His friend made a bet with him, thinking that Anna's happiness is because she lives in a society where she has nothing, is not afraid of being hurt by public opinion, and is not afraid of losing her property status.So under their design, they designed to bring Anna to the high society, let people teach her etiquette, put her in fancy clothes and jewelry, and then pretend to be a rich young man moved by her beauty to pursue her.

The girl in red doesn't adapt to such a society, but she is reluctant to part with this well-paid job.Her father has handicapped legs, her mother works day and night, and her four siblings have learned how to make money at a young age. She will not let go of any opportunity to improve her life.

Facing the ridicule of the etiquette teacher and the disdain and malice of the people around her, she also cried, but she still tried to smile afterwards.The newly unfolded world all tempts her desires, and the two young people gradually understand the complex heart behind the smile of the girl in red.

With her simple and sincere character, as well as the wisdom of ordinary girls, the girl in red resolves various crises that arise one by one.She was falsely accused of stealing jewellery, was poured red wine on her skirt by a noble lady, and was maliciously insulted and ridiculed in public.

She is not Cinderella, but the clown and toy of nobles.

But in the end, the gentleman is gradually moved by the personality charm of the girl in red, and decides to propose to the girl in red, but unexpectedly, the girl in red finds out their gambling, and feels angry for the insult he has suffered.

She took off her fine clothes, put on her own old clothes, and left the gorgeous manor.

She returned to a low-paying job in the tavern. The gentleman confessed to her and proposed to her, but the girl in red answered him: "You think I am noble because I am not moved by jewelry and clothes, but you don't know that I am actually moved." , because you will never know how much food such a string of necklaces can exchange for me. It’s just that I am more afraid of the consequences of stealing. I endure such insults, ridicule and hard work, but just for four weeks a week Pound salary, I am proud to be able to earn food with my own hands. These things, you will never understand."

The girl in red wore an old sweater and left calmly with a smile, leaving behind a young man who became a sad gentleman again.

This movie is not a traditional reunion, it can only be regarded as a niche literary film. Only after watching it did Fei Yizhen slightly amazed with the chicness and decisiveness of the girl in red.

He walked out of the movie theater, went to the bookstore again, and went out to check out with a whole stack of books.

As a novel author, it is natural not to have a beautiful bookcase with rich content.He bought more than ten books, including Atlas of Chinese Dynasties, Classic of Mountains and Seas, Classic of Tea, Classic of Food, and Suiyuan Food List, and decided to start a unitary ancient short story for his next story.

Watching "The Lady in Red" being busy in the tavern with the life of the guests, this idea popped into Fei Yizhen's mind.

This is how the story should begin.

The young scholar's mother passed away, and he went to seek refuge with his uncle according to his mother's last words, but he didn't expect that his uncle had moved and didn't know where he was going.In that family, there was only an old man and his granddaughter who depended on each other for life, and an old servant who was about the same age as the old man.

The old man was seriously ill and dying, but he refused to swallow his breath because he was worried about the life and death of his young granddaughter. He was afraid that she would be bullied because there was no man in the family to support her.

He called the boy into the house and pretended to be the boy's uncle, claiming that the boy and his cousin had already arranged a marriage, and he was dying of illness, so he handed over the cousin to him.The young man hesitated and doubted, so he was aggressive and threatened, the young man had no choice but to agree, and the old man gave up his breath.

When the boy finally found out that he had been cheated, he wanted to leave angrily, but the old servant brazenly hugged his leg and knelt on the ground crying.The boy was angry and impatient, but unexpectedly his ten-year-old "fiancée" came out, comforted the old servant, and let him let the boy go.

Looking at the young girl and the unbearable old servant, the boy finally didn't make up his mind and stayed.The old man left behind a restaurant with a lackluster business, and the young man took the little girl with him, learning to run a restaurant while studying, and started living like this.

The old servant who is loyal but always acts like a treasure, the boy who is smart but has a serious personality, the little girl who is well-behaved and sensible, and all kinds of customers make up this "Yan's Restaurant".

Weird and creative recipes, troubled and sad customers with various personalities, and various events that appear from time to time, the story of "Yan's Restaurant" began like this.

Fei Yizhen returned home, turned on the computer, and created a new file on the hard disk.

"The Best Restaurant in the World".

"new Year's Eve party?"

"It will be announced at the class meeting later. The teacher told you to report for a show." The female class leader said seriously, "You have to perform something, right?"

Fei Yi couldn't help but laugh: "What am I performing? Do you want me to go up and perform oil paintings?"

The female squad leader said: "Aren't you acting in TV? Perform a sketch, a drama or something."

Fei Yi really thought about it, and said: "It's fine to act. How about I write a short play for our class and let the teacher see it. If it's okay, we can organize students to practice acting?"

The female squad leader sized him up and asked suspiciously, "You really know how to write scripts?"

Fei Yi smiled: "Do you doubt me? I'm good at composition, okay?"

Seeing his shameless bragging, the female squad leader immediately smiled and said, "Then I'll go talk to the teacher and see if the teacher agrees."

In fact, Fei Yi really knew that the homeroom teacher probably wanted to borrow his fame because he had just appeared on TV, so that the school programs would be easier to enjoy.

After thinking about it, he wrote an outline of an adventure story in which a father and son exchanged ages in the notebook.

When the class meeting started, the class leader had already collected the program registration list for the first episode, and then when the whole class was clamoring and trying to form a group program, the head teacher came to talk to Fei Yizhen.

He asked, "Yizhen, don't you want to perform on stage?"

Fei Yizhen replied: "No, it's just that I don't know what to perform."

The class teacher said: "Then you can go on stage and sing a song."

Fei Yizhen shook his head and said, "I still prefer to write something. Teacher, can I write a script and try it out?"

The head teacher hesitated for a moment and said, "That's fine. Then you can write it first, but you should prepare a song first, and then perform it on stage at the class meeting next week to see the situation. If your script is well written, or you sing If it’s too bad, we’ll consider putting together a short play. When the time comes, let you be the director.”

This is the rhythm that must let him take the stage.

But the teachers at the school are generally good to Fei Yizhen, and he can't refuse too strongly, so he just smiled at the end and replied: "Okay."

Liang Qing didn't have this kind of trouble - he was going to ask for leave next week to film, and even if it went well, it would be around New Year's Day. There was no time for rehearsal at all, so the teacher naturally wouldn't force it.

Fei Yi really didn't like to write scripts, nor did he like to sing.Although he didn't study music, his voice was natural and very nice, and it was no problem for him to sing a few songs.

But what song to sing is worth considering.

Songs that don’t exist at this time will definitely not be sung. He doesn’t care about plagiarism or anything: he is not a music student, and he doesn’t have the self-esteem in music creation. There is no pressure for him to use good works.But considering that sometimes some songs may be a turning point for some creators, and inspiration is not easy to come by, he decided not to be greedy for this cheap thing that doesn't matter to him.

Finally, after thinking about it, he chose an old song "Choice".But this song is a love song, so he changed the lyrics, made a cover, and turned it into a thank you song "Drizzle".

Strolling on the way to school, I hate that time is not long

When I was young, I was worried and thought I was hurt

But the lights in front of the window are never bright

Who will illuminate the night when the lights are still on

The drizzle keeps soaking the spring

like where the whisper stays

Who can forget that youth like this

Let that guiding light lose its direction

……

The drizzle keeps soaking the spring

Blooming clusters of begonias outside your window

All the careful exhortations I once heard are forgotten

Looking back again, I saw the sleepless light in front of your window all night

It took Fei Yizhen half an hour to change the lyrics and sing a cappella once. He felt pretty good about himself, so he found an accompaniment on the Internet. He planned to practice again and sing it at the class meeting next week.

It was past nine o'clock in the evening after all this was done.After hesitating for a moment, he put aside the matter of the script and decided to be busy tomorrow.

The school on the second day was very lively. Many people were doing rehearsals for the upcoming New Year's Day performance, and some even reserved empty classrooms to start practicing.However, due to the limited number of programs that will be on stage at the end, and each class has a quota, many of the programs that are registered now will actually be rejected during the class selection. In the end, each class can only submit four programs. Might not be able to choose.

Singing sketches and so on are fine, and many children performing dances just find an open space and start dancing, and they are not afraid of being copied and imitated. The jumping steps and dancing waists of a large number of girls and a few boys have become a common theme in the entire campus. Beautiful scenery, and it will obviously last at least another month.

Fei Yi is really not like those children who practice singing and dancing, they don't even miss 10 minutes of get out of class time.When he had free time, he started to write the short play that promised the monitor, and because he saw dancers all over the campus, he changed the original plan and added some dance elements to it, but did not add any singing and dancing.After revising and modifying like this, it took three or four days to finally write the short play.

He also practiced singing at home, and then his own mother was surprised when she heard it—Chen Xueyan really didn't know that her son had such a good voice, he almost never sang in the karaoke at home.

She could recognize the tune of "Choice", but she had never heard the lyrics.She didn't expect that this song could also be changed into a thank you song, and it sounded...it turned out to be not bad, it fits well.

The busy time always passes quickly, and the day of screening programs in the class will come soon.Fei Yizhen brought the CD and sorted out the short play scripts, and went to school.

When he arrived at school in the morning, he first handed over the script to the class monitor and asked her to pass it on to the teacher, and then handed in the "Choice" accompaniment CD when the monitor was collecting the accompaniment tape.

Then amidst the hustle and bustle, the class meeting kicked off.

After more than a week of rehearsal and planning, the winner will be decided in just four to 10 minutes. Who can perform on the biggest stage on campus will also have a preliminary conclusion in this class.

The first one to appear was a girl with short black hair in the class. She sang the song "Who Can Understand My Pain".

She sang well, her voice was sweet and full of emotion. Although there were many flaws, it was obvious to a girl of this age that her flaws were not concealed.

But the head teacher quickly brushed her off. At the New Year's Eve party in junior high school, which teacher is not clear enough to make people sing love songs?Or this kind of obviously moaning love song?If you sing some slightly ambiguous but generally lush and bright campus songs, you can still make the school turn a blind eye.

Then there is Fei Yizhen.

The head teacher took a look at the track, it was called "Drizzle", but found that the music played was clearly "Choice".

He thought the music was played wrongly, but he heard Fei Yizhen speak.

The singing sound amazed half the floor where the classroom is located.

The author has something to say: By the way, of course there is no song "Choice", and even if there is, it is not the song I use.So, does anyone know what song's tune is actually used in "Drizzle"?
