Peerless luthier

In an instant, the clouds that fell on the leaves of the trees finally became beautiful again. (.)

Looking at the radiant sunset glow, Zhong Yi stood at the flower bed in a daze.

The cold wind has already rolled up the sleeves of the clothes, brushed the long black hair, and looked at the dark pupils with confusion. Everyone knew that there was a lovesickness hidden inside.

At night, I lit candles, dipped in ink, and wrote on rice paper, losing time word by word.

One day, one night, one month...

When the first snow falls slowly in winter, the wind changes the world, and Andu is peaceful.

A bit of joy was added to the dull days.

For example, Dad became a famous court luthier, and the princes and nobles who came here attracted him to invite the Andu carillon master to play a splendid song in the deep mansion.

However, simplicity is simplicity, Zhong Han with a clear heart did not fall under the applause and praise, he was just an ordinary but extraordinary luthier, just an ordinary husband with a wife and son.

It was a cold early winter, and Zhong Yi was walking in the academy wearing a thick fleece.

The red list announces the evaluation results of this section, and Qin Zi, surnamed Zhong Mingyi, is still firmly No.1.

He pushed open Zhu Wen's study door with a chill in his body.

Zhu Wen seemed to be more afraid of the cold than him, and had already carried a small sleeve stove.He was wearing a snow-white cotton coat, and the fluffy fur collar made him even whiter, and even gave him a soft and tender feeling.

Zhong Yi said: "I wish you master, these days the master in the piano room said that we are not good at practicing piano."

Zhu Wen put down the brush, looked up in surprise and said, "Not paying attention? Why?"

Zhong Yi shook her head: "I don't know, he said that we have to resubmit a composition of a short song, and listen to us play it in a few days."

Zhu Wen observed Zhong Yi's face and smiled: "Isn't it because you are afraid of creating short songs?"

Zhong Yi's mind was seen through, and she took out a book in embarrassment.

Zhu Wen finally took a look: "Self-created short song talk"?

He flipped through the notes inside, Zhong Yi was clearly thinking, but unfortunately he was still a little short in this evaluation.

Zhu Wen said: "This is the fourth volume? There are six volumes in total, right?"

Zhong Yi nodded.

Zhu Wen said: "Is there any gain? Is it better than before?"

Zhong Yi said distressedly: "I can't always get full marks. The master said that I have been thinking for a long time, and the expressiveness of the music is mediocre."

Zhu Wen tapped on the desk: "That's it," he thought for a while, "I guess I'm still not very proficient in finding the entry point. Your expressiveness is pretty good. I'll go back and write you a plan, and I'll do this in the future." Short songs have to be timed."

Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Thank you Master."

Zhu Wen said: "No problem."

Zhong Yi turned and left with the book.

Sure enough, Mrs. Zhu is a caring and responsible teacher.

He returned to the school with the book, and Chen Cheng wrote ancient prose appreciation on his eyebrows.

Zhong Yi leaned over to look.

After writing for a while, Chen Cheng noticed Zhong Yi and looked at him dissatisfied.

Zhong Yi said kindly: "Can I make a suggestion? About the appreciation you are writing."

Chen Cheng said impatiently: "Say."

In fact, he seemed to listen to the suggestion of Zhong Yi, who was firmly in the first place.

Zhong Yi's eyebrows were clear: "I think that although the words and sentences in ancient songs are short, they have profound meanings. It is not necessary to add some of your own associations. You don't have to try to match the original sentences, and you can also add your own feelings. As for the score you compiled in the end ...you can change it again."

Chen Cheng felt that what he had said was the same as if he hadn't said anything, so he dismissed Zhong Yi casually, and continued to write in his own way.

Zhong Yi touched her nose and returned to her seat.

Even though they have been together for so long, the friendship between classmates is still mediocre, let alone the classmates behind them, in the past it was just eye contact, each doing his own thing.Only when the grades were sent out did he show a jealous look.

He really lacks the friendship of his peers. Since Ah Li went to Fancheng, he seems to be very busy, occasionally answering some letters. According to him, there are still rules for sending letters, and only those who perform outstandingly have the opportunity to request to send letters.

The distance between Andu and Fancheng is very far, one side is cold, and the other side is even colder.

Zhong Yi is silently looking forward to the arrival of the new year, and he hopes that Ah Li will have a holiday soon.

When school was over, Zhong Han took him to the food street, and the hot snacks gave off an attractive aroma.

Zhong Yi dragged Zhong Han to buy this and that, and when he bought candied haws, a summer day came to his mind. That was when Ah Li and Ah Li came back from listening to a storybook, and fought with the flower fields on the street to grab candied haws.Later, Ah Li bought him a big one, with a helpless but gentle expression on his face.

He tugged at Zhong Han's sleeve: "Daddy, I want to buy a candied haws and send it to Ah Li."

Zhong Han said with a smile: "This may not work, how about you draw a bunch of candied haws for Ah Li?"

The two laughed and bought a few bunches of bright red candied haws.

When I got home, I heard the servant say: "Master, Miss Bai Si from the Bai family has come and said she is looking for the young master to play with."

Zhong Han smiled and agreed: "Okay." He brought Zhong Yi into the flower hall with a large bag of snacks, and Zhong Yi thought as he walked, "Then why is the girl here?"

When I arrived at the flower hall, I saw that Huatian was already acting like a baby next to the beautiful girl who was elegant and playful.

Zhong Yi frowned and stared at Huatian.

Huatian was still obsessively rubbing her cat's face against the hem of Bai Jinyu's skirt.

Zhong Yi: "..."

Zhong Han said gently: "Miss Bai Si came to play with Zhong Yi? I just went to the food court and bought a lot of snacks. How about some fried sweet cakes?"

Bai Jinyu smiled and said, "Uncle Zhong, don't call me that, just call me Jinyu."

Zhong Han handed some snacks to Bai Jinyu, and went out to find Yan Hui.

Seeing her father leaving, Zhong Yi dragged the one who was still dawdling beside Bai Jinyu to her side.

Bai Jinyu tsk-tsk: "Brother Xiaoyi, you are too rough with Huatian."

Huatian immediately meowed pitifully.

Zhong Yi stared at Huatian: "Go back to the room."

Hanada twisted her buttocks and ran out meowing.

Bai Jinyu shook her head and ate the pastry.

Zhong Yi looked at Bai Jinyu and said, "You came to see me?"

Bai Jinyu nodded.

Zhong Yi asked suspiciously, "Why are you looking for me?"

Bai Jinyu pursed her moist lips: "Brother Xiaoyi doesn't remember me at all? We had so much fun when we were young."

After she finished speaking, she looked up at Zhong Yi, and found that the other party looked confused.

Sighing in my heart: You idiot, do you forget completely, or is it because Miss Ben has a good memory?

She said softly: "In Yundi, you are ten years old...it should be the summer when you were ten years old, you looked like a little girl, wearing a beautiful light yellow gauze..."

Uh, she found that Zhong Yi had already looked at her bun with suspicious eyes, no, it was her head to be precise.

She said dissatisfied: "Don't doubt, your father knows me, although the impression may not be very deep."

Zhong Yi said: "Speak, I'll listen."

She continued: "At that time, your hair was not combed into a boy's hairstyle. When I was playing by the lotus pond, I wanted to pick lotus seeds to eat. When I saw you standing under the willow tree, I dragged you to pick lotus seeds together."

"But you are so stupid. When we finally picked a small bowl of lotus seeds, you staggered and the boat wobbled, and you yelled that you were going to drown. I said it was okay, but it turned out When I continued to pick lotus seeds, you somehow fell into the water."

Zhong Yi's mouth twitched: "How did I fall into the water?"

Bai Jinyu spread her hands: "I also want to ask you, I was still on the boat just now, I was frightened at that time, and I wanted to pull you up, but you dragged me into the water and hugged me He didn't let me go, but he didn't let me come up, and I kept crying with snot and tears..."

Zhong Yi: "..."

Must not be his doing.

Bai Jinyu said: "Later I called my second brother. At that time, my second brother was talking to the local farmers not far away. He just wanted to see how I was doing, but he couldn't stop crying when he saw me and a farmer. The child with the child made a bitter face in the water, and immediately dragged us to the shore with the farmer."

Zhong Yi said: "Then where is my father?"

Bai Jinyu said: "When I got to the shore, my second brother asked me who this girl is... Don't look at my brother Xiaoyi like that, you can only blame you for looking too much like a girl when you were young. , and nothing else, we had no choice but to go to nearby houses and ask each other, and then we met Uncle Zhong who was looking for you everywhere, and we got to know each other slowly."

Zhong Yi was puzzled: "What was my father doing in Yundi at that time?"

Bai Jinyu recalled: "It seems to be visiting friends... I remember when I played next to the lotus pond the next day, you dozed off under the willow tree again, and then I played with you for a while..."

Zhong Yi, who was eating melon seeds, interjected leisurely: "Then I fell into the water again?"

Bai Jinyu was silent.

Zhong Yi spat out the melon seeds slowly, and said with difficulty: "...No."

Bai Jinyu said: "It's mainly yourself. If you insist on eating lotus petals, I say it's not delicious. You don't listen, you make a lot of noise, go to a lotus, and then 'thump', I will see you fall into the water." inside."

Zhong Yi raised her forehead: "..."

Bai Jinyu giggled: "The fun is in the back. I jumped into the water and pulled you into the boat, but you couldn't get up. I asked you why angrily. You said you saw a duck and wanted to catch it. I said you You don’t know how to water yet! Then you looked at me seriously and said, ‘Teach me.’”

"Then I'll teach you, every day, you're not too stupid in this regard, and you've learned the most basic in a few days, at least you can't drown... It's just that posture, it's too ugly."

"We were all very wild at that time. We played all over the little Yundi. When it was about time, you once told me that you were leaving tomorrow when you were looking at the rice fields with me, and you gave me a different one." I know where the little flowers come from—the hairpin I showed you last time, and the flowers on it are exactly the same as the ones you sent."

Zhong Yi looked at her in surprise.

Bai Jinyu smiled and said: "At that time, I was still very sad. I really couldn't wait for you the next day. I ran to the house where you were staying at noon, only to find out that you left in the morning. Later, I was very sad. I went to the lotus pond to be in a daze, and after thinking for a long time, I remembered that you told me when you were fishing for shrimps that your name is Zhong Xiaoyi."

Zhong Yi said in a daze, "You...you remember it very clearly."

Bai Jinyu smiled mischievously: "Of course, I was much smarter than you at that time."

Zhong Yi: "..."

In fact, brother Xiaoyi, you brought me so deep memories that my childhood was lackluster. However, although you were the stupidest and stupidest of my childhood playmates, you were also the cutest.

You know, you are the brightest and most vivid stroke in the monotonous colors of my childhood.

So, I always remember you.
