back to innocence

When Ye Zhen opened the door and came out, Fei Yi was really startled.

Ye Zhen smiled at him, and then said, "Yizhen, come in, my mother has been waiting for you."

Her voice was still hoarse and unpleasant, but I don't know if it was Fei Yi's illusion, it seemed that it was not as harsh as before.

He called out "Sister Ye Zhen" and realized that he had been to Ms. Wen's house before, but the number of visits was so infrequent that he didn't feel familiar at all just now.

Since it was Ms. Wen's home, it was already clear who the teacher Fang Menglou was talking about was.He remembered that Fang Menglou had said that he had graduated from the National University of Music, and Ms. Wen was a visiting professor there.In this way, it is not surprising that the two are teachers and students.

Then he entered the entrance and saw Ms. Wen sitting in the living room.

She sat on the sofa with a towel blanket covering her legs, and looked at the sketch with a smile on her face, but she couldn't see any problems with her legs.Hearing the sound, she raised her head and saw Fei Yizhen and Fang Menglou, her smile deepened immediately, and she said, "Yizhen, Menglou, are you here? Come, come and sit."

Then he told Ye Zhen: "Come over after you drink tea."

Ye Zhen nodded and walked towards the kitchen.

Seeing Fei Yi's puzzled expression, Fang Menglou explained to him: "Ye Zhen has a bad voice, so the general teachers asked her to drink honey water regularly and quantitatively."

Fang Menglou didn't know that Fei Yizhen had already understood the complicated relationship between Ms. Wen's mother and daughter, and Ms. Wen didn't explain it, but just said to Fei Yizhen: "I made you laugh."

Ms. Wen's tone of voice to Ye Zhen was actually a bit blunt, not like an order but more like an order, but Fei Yizhen also knew that this was due to Ms. Wen's personality.She is not good at dealing with people, so although her intentions are not bad, she is either too cold or too tough when communicating with people.

That toughness is actually a way of caring about people.

If Ms. Wen had been more mellow, Ye Zhen's tragedy might not have happened.But Fei Yizhen felt that it was hard to imagine Ms. Wen who became harmonious.

After Ye Zhen left, Ms. Wen said: "Sometimes fate is such a thing that people have to believe in its existence. I think Yizhen, you and I are destined to have a fate of master and apprentice."

Fei Yizhen was a little hesitant, and said: "Aunt Wen, I actually thought that I could make a disc because my friends said they wanted to hear my songs. I don't have great ambitions, nor do I want to be a singer..."

Then he saw Ms. Wen staring at him with calm eyes, and suddenly stopped talking, wondering if he should continue talking.

Ms. Wen looked at him for a long time, then slowly frowned, and didn't speak for a long time.

The length of the silence and the other party's expression almost made Fei Yizhen feel that the other party was unhappy, but when he was about to speak, Ms. Wen stopped him and said, "Don't talk, let me think about it first. "

Ms. Wen spent several minutes thinking about this.

Then she finally said, "Yizhen, do you remember that I told you before that singing is something that makes people feel happy, and hearing you sing should also be a happy thing?"

Fei Yizhen responded with a little puzzlement.

"I see a child with a good singing talent will be very happy and develop a love for talent, but even if a person does not have a good voice and a bad sense of pitch, if he loves to sing, I think it is a good thing. matter."

"Yizhen, I have also read the stories you wrote. Maybe your stories are not the best, but I can see that you have written your own thoughts and feelings into the stories, so it can move people who read it. In my opinion, art, literature, and music all have such a commonality, that is, a person expresses his feelings through a certain carrier, and then expresses the feelings and ideas he wants to express and express through pictures, words or sounds To convey to others. We are all the same in this respect.”

"In this process, talent and skills will affect the accuracy and completeness of your ability to express this emotion, but I think that no matter what kind of talent and skills you have, you first need to have what you want to express. "As Ms. Wen spoke, it seemed that her thoughts finally became smoother, and her sentences became much smoother.

During this process, she kept paying attention to Fei Yizhen's expression.

In fact, Ms. Wen is not a person who is not good at verbal and written expressions, otherwise she would not be able to become a visiting professor at a first-class university. What she is really bad at is accepting other people's emotions and expressing her own non-verbal communication.In fact, most introverted or stubborn people have such problems.Fei Yi could really see that Ms. Wen was trying hard to improve her situation.

Fei Yizhen smiled at her and nodded, expressing his understanding and approval.

Ms. Wen showed a faint smile that was not easy to spot, and said: "Like me, even Zhenzhen's father sometimes feels unreasonable when I speak, but only when singing, no one will feel uncomfortable. So This is why I like singing so much. Only music never carries impurities, and is always sincere and direct. It eliminates all misunderstandings. Although the content that everyone understands from it may be different, the only thing that is the same is It only exists pure notes and emotions, without many mutual suspicions and intrigues."

"So in fact, Yizhen, I really want to teach you some music theory skills, but I don't care where you use them. As long as you are willing to sing, and the listeners feel happy or moved, this is already something you can do in music. Greatest achievement ever."

After listening to Fei Yizhen, he was silent for a while, and suddenly remembered the scene when he first met Ms. Wen.

At that time, Ms. Wen kept pestering her, and almost all the students watched her jokes, and some even sneered behind her back without any taboo.

But when Ms. Wen sang, although in the eyes of many people, it was actually a kind of neurotic behavior, but because the high-pitched singing voice was so beautiful, everyone couldn't help applauding in the end.

He couldn't help but move in his heart.

It's actually a very beautiful thing.

Use singing to convey what words cannot convey.

A thought came to Fei Yizheng's head, and he said to Ms. Wen: "Aunt Wen, thank you. Although I may not be studying for a long time, I will work hard...for...well, so that my classmates can hear me again. I feel happy when I sing."

Ms. Wen nodded.

So starting from this day, Fei Yizhen spent most of the summer vacation at the frequency of going to Times two days a week, going to Ms. Wen's house for two days, and going to Pottery Bar for three days.

He hadn't thought about what subject to write about before, but on the day of the conversation with Ms. Wen, he suddenly thought of what to write about.

"Convey what cannot be conveyed in words with singing".

A girl gradually appeared in his mind.

This is a girl who is born with a low IQ. She is not good at speaking and has a slight stutter. Everyone has said since she was a child that this child is probably a fool.

When she was three years old, she still couldn't say the words "father" and "mother". Her parents were already in despair. They only thought that if she could grow up normally in this life, it would be a kind of luck.

When she was more than five years old, she was finally able to speak a few words piecemeal, but her reactions were still slow.The children around her don't like to play with her, and occasionally some naughty children deliberately bully her.But the girl was so dumb that she didn't even know how to file a complaint. When she was bullied, she would just cry stupidly. Then, after the kids left, she got up awkwardly by herself and went home covered in a layer of ashes.

But girls especially like to play around the record player at home. Although it takes her a long time to learn a song, and she always forgets it after learning it, she never tires of it.

Everyone thought she was out of tune, only a big brother who lived nearby said she "singed very well".

But when the girl finally learned a complete song and wanted to sing it to the other party, she never saw the little brother again.She only heard from others that the little brother's family has moved away.

Later, she grew up.

She is still stupid and stupid, and a little timid because she was often bullied since she was a child.On the way to school on the first day, I was pushed directly into the ditch by a passing elementary school student's prank, but I didn't know how to scold and resist until a tall figure came and grabbed the naughty child and said: "You A grown-up, won’t you resist!?”

For a moment she froze.

Although she had a bad memory and was dumb and stupid, she recognized this little brother who didn't even know his name at the first sight.

Should be called senior now.

But the senior didn't know her anymore, and he didn't have any impression of the little idiot near his home back then, let alone their promise that one day she would sing a complete song for him.

But the girl always remembers.

She was a little dull and silly, so there was also a stubbornness in her temper.

When she called her senior out, everyone thought she was going to confess, felt that she was overreaching, and laughed at her for wanting to eat swan meat.Even the senior feels that girls are a little ignorant, and ugly people often play tricks.

However, the girl opened her mouth and sang a song.

A... a very beautiful song that she has practiced for nearly ten years.

The senior was amazed.

When Fei Yizhen is not by the computer, he often carries notes and sticky notes with him, so that he can record the inspiration that may appear anytime and anywhere.

The girl's story was written down by him while facing Ye Zhen and Ms. Wen. The girl's prototype obviously has a bit of Ms. Wen's shadow, but more of it comes from Fei Yizhen's imagination. In my imagination, this girl actually has a little shadow of the fairy tale "Mermaid Princess".

When she is not singing, she is almost completely unable to express her thoughts normally, and her stuttering is always exchanged for the ridicule and ridicule of others, so she slowly becomes silent, like a mermaid princess who has lost her voice.She left the water and walked on land, but even with legs, she was still out of tune with this world.

Ye Zhen walked nearby, saw Fei Yizhen writing on the notebook, and asked with a smile, "Record inspiration?"

Fei Yizhen said, "Yes."

Ye Zhen said: "What is the new book going to write? Can I know in advance?"

Fei Yizhen listened to Ye Zhen's hoarse voice, paused for a moment, and said: "A campus youth love story, the heroine probably brought a little... Sister Ye Zhen, you and Aunt Wen are the prototypes."

Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment.

After a while, she said, "It feels like I'm completely different from my mother."

Fei Yi really thought about it, and asked, "Sister Ye Zhen, do you mind if I ask, do you really want to start singing again now?"

Ye Zhen was silent for a while, and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
