【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

Shui Rong watched as Pin'er's face became redder and redder, then he watched her pick up her teacup and take a sip. He felt so happy for some reason, and the corners of his mouth curved even more.

After taking a sip, Pin'er realized that this was not her teacup, because the tea only tasted like milk and was not sweet at all. She had just added a spoonful of sugar.

She looked at Shui Rong, who obediently took Pin'er's cup and comforted her softly, "It's okay, I haven't drunk my cup yet, and I don't dislike you."

Pin'er's face turned even redder. She felt like she had trouble breathing. She made an excuse to go to the bathroom, left the tea table and ran upstairs.

I walked around upstairs and suddenly got an idea. I opened the door and window of the piano room, and the tea room was right downstairs.

Then he sat down in front of his guqin, tuned the strings, and began to play "Xiaoxiang Water and Clouds".

This song is similar to her own song "Dream-Unknown", both of which are gentle at first and lively later, unlike some guqin pieces that are sad or old-fashioned.

As soon as the sound of the piano was heard, the people downstairs stopped chatting. Although Wu Qing didn't quite understand what was being said, she could tell that Pin'er was happy today.

Shui Rong quietly stood up and opened the sliding door of the tea room, letting the piano sound come from both the upper floor and the stairs outside the window.

After the song was over, everyone applauded and praised.

Xiangyun was particularly well-behaved today and praised the music. But she also joked, "The music is wonderful, but it should be paired with Chinese tea. But today's mix is ​​very interesting."

Professor Yue suddenly remembered something and took out an exquisite long metal box from her handbag. When she opened it, it turned out to be an incense box. She picked out a purple one and handed it to Shui Rong.

"Here, this is the sweet dream fragrance that you young people like. We will sponsor a stick of incense and encourage Pin'er to pick the best one and play another song!"

Shui Rong took the incense and hurried to the piano room. After he came in, he went straight to the cabinet by the wall, opened it and looked around. Sure enough, there were incense holders and other tools for the piano room.

He lit the purple incense stick beside Pin'er's piano and said, "Teacher, please play another excellent piece of music." Then he went back downstairs to listen to the piano without saying much.

Pin'er couldn't think of what to play for a moment, but suddenly she remembered the chocolate. She sat up straight, raised her hand gently and started playing "Drunkard".

The people downstairs immediately quieted down. This song was not as gentle as the previous one. It started out very smoothly. Miaoyu liked this song the most. The guqin can soothe the mind and heal the body. If Pin'er were to play such a joyful tune now, she would be reborn. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but chant along with the guqin:

"Drunken man, singing to the wine, how long is life! Like the morning dew, the past days are full of suffering. I should be generous, and the worries are unforgettable. How to relieve the worries? Only Du Kang. The green collar of your son, my heart is lingering. But for your sake, I have been pondering until now. The deer calls, eating wild apples. I have guests, playing the harp and blowing the flute. It is as bright as the moon, when can it be picked? Worry comes from it, and it cannot be cut off. Crossing the fields, it is in vain to keep each other. Talking about the past, my heart is thinking of the old kindness. The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, the magpie flies south. Circling the tree three times, which branch can I rely on? The mountain is never too high, the sea is never too deep. Zhou Gong spits out food, and the world is at peace."

As soon as the song was finished, everyone applauded and praised!

Now everyone wanted to go upstairs, so they had to ask Zijuan and Xueyan to move the tea to the tea table in the piano room. Only Miaoyu didn't want to go upstairs, she thought it was enough to listen to the piano, not to watch it, and everyone couldn't persuade her, so they had to let her go.

When they arrived at the piano room, Wu Qing sat obediently on the sofa. Those who could play instruments and sing began to show their talents. Although the sound system had not been installed yet, the courtyard was quiet, so this unplugged concert was also good.

The two old people sat in front of the piano, and Shui Rong sat cross-legged on the carpet in front of Pin'er's guqin, tuning his classical guitar in his hand.

Xiangyun stood between the piano and the guqin, waiting for everyone to choose songs. In the end, Shui Rong took the lead and played the song "Dream - Unknown". Xiangyun began to hum and add lyrics improvisationally, at first just la la la la, and gradually began to add one or two simple words.

Miaoyu, who was downstairs, suddenly felt like asking for paper and pen and started writing and revising on the paper.

When the song was over, before it was finished, Xueyan came running up quickly, saying, "Miss Su asked me to give this to everyone."

I saw the lyrics written on an A4 paper, based on Xiangyun's improvisation, and then reorganized and polished:

Dream-Unknown

Verse 1:

Deep in the night, I am lost

My heart is wandering, looking for direction

Dreams are like mist, the unknown distance

The footsteps wandered and didn't know where to go

Verse 2:

Starlight sprinkled on the roadside

Thoughts fly with the wind

The dream's outline is vague

Expect the light to illuminate the heart

refrain:

The dream is unknown, but the heart is crazy

Chasing the poem in the distance

Even if the road is long and the wind and rain are strong

Don't give up the light in your heart

Unknown dream, endless love

Fly forward bravely

Explore the mystery and solve the unknown

The key to the future

Verse 3:

The morning light awakens hope

Full of courage, no longer confused

The dream journey has just begun

Facing the rising sun with a firm gaze

Verse 4:

Time flies, footsteps hurry

The fire of dreams burns hot

The answer to the dream gradually became clear

Blooming brightly all the way

refrain:

The dream is unknown, but the heart is crazy

Chasing the poem in the distance

Even if the road is long and the wind and rain are strong

Don't give up the light in your heart

Unknown dream, endless love

Fly forward bravely

Explore the mystery and solve the unknown

The key to the future

------------

Now, not only Lin Pin'er, but even the two elders were praising him: "He has written the lyrics for a whole song in just one song? That's amazing. It would be great if the music industry could produce so much nowadays."

As she was talking, Miaoyu came up the stairs and said, "I am leaving now. If you publish it later, remember to add my name and Xiangyun's. She was improvising, and I edited and polished it."

Pin'er stood up and tried to persuade him to stay: "Why are you leaving so early?"

"I have other things to do. Now that I know the door, I can come every day if I want."

Pin'er had no choice but to send her out of the yard before returning. When she returned, the game had already begun.

Madam Li and Professor Yue were playing "My Motherland". Xiangyun actually led the singing for the first time. Pin'er couldn't believe that she could sing such a song. Then she sang "The Moon Represents My Heart" and even Wu Qing joined in.

They played until 4:30 and the two old people said goodbye because they were tired. Wu Qing also wanted to go back, saying that the store was still very busy recently, so everyone didn't force her to stay.

After Pin'er and Shui Rong sent them off, they turned back and the three of them sang "Dream - Unknown" several times again. They had to say that the new lyrics were very suitable. When they were practicing for the fourth time, Xueyan came up again in a hurry to report: "Sister Yuanyang called and said that the ancestors are coming here. Let's prepare to welcome them."

Then they put down their musical instruments and went downstairs to do their own things.
