Soul knot

Every time when talking about ideals, Lu Yudong always has an empty head.

She seems to have had no ideals since she was a child, and she only believes that the most important thing in life is to be safe and stable, not to be wonderful, but to be free from storms.

For the future, her only thought seems to be to let Manzhu live in a better house, so that food, clothing, and daily entertainment will no longer be so tight.

But just because she doesn't have ideals doesn't mean that others don't have ideals.

Not long after the second year of high school started, Zhang Ziyun pulled her to think about what university to study in the future and what major to study.

Although Yuanchuan City is a second-tier city, it has a profound cultural background, and its economic development has always been good. In addition, the pace of life is slow, the work pressure is low, and there are many local delicacies. Too willing to move.

Since the two older girls have decided to stay in the city for university, they naturally want to choose a school in the city, and then work hard for it.

Zhang Ziyun's goal was set very clearly, which was the Yuanchuan Conservatory of Music in the city, which was relatively well-known throughout the country.

She said that her dream since she was a child was to be a singer. She used to want to be admitted to the Imperial Conservatory of Music, so she spent most of her spare time taking piano, vocal music and small three subjects, which laid a lot of foundation.

She didn't study hard in the past, more or less because the scores of art candidates were lower than other candidates, and it was enough for her cultural achievements to be passable, so she was very leisurely every day.

It’s just that learning music is really too expensive. In addition to the main vocal music, there are three small courses of music theory, sight-singing, and ear training. Each small class has to be calculated separately.Since something happened to her family, she has no money to continue her studies.

It has to be said that a car accident not only shattered her family, but also shattered her self-confidence, making her overwhelmed by debts, and for a time dared not face her dreams.

Now with a new goal, she finally rekindled the dream in her heart.

"Yuanchuan Conservatory of Music is much easier to take the exam than Imperial Conservatory of Music." Zhang Ziyun felt a little guilty when he said this, "It's just that I haven't taken the small class for more than half a year, and I don't have the money to go to the pre-examination training when I'm in the third year of high school... If you want to enter the conservatory of music, you have to find a way to learn and practice on your own."

"It's possible. You can practice this by yourself without a teacher, right?" Lu Yudong didn't understand anything, and he habitually offered encouragement.

Zhang Ziyun suddenly touched Lu Yudong's elbow, his eyes sparkled and he said, "There is a piano on the singing stage in the bar, Lu Yudong, tell me, if I want to borrow it, will the boss agree?"

Lu Yudong thought for a while: "Yes?"

"If there is a piano, I can still practice sight-singing by myself." Zhang Ziyun thought for a while, and then said, "If someone can play it for me, I can also train my ears... Is there anyone in our bar who can play the piano? I Why have you never seen anyone play it?"

Lu Yudong shook his head: "That's just a decoration, it seems that everyone doesn't know how to do it."

If I remember correctly, it's not that there is indeed no one among the old friends who can play the piano.

The piano in the corner of the singing stage was bought in the early years. At that time, there was no official resident singer in the bar, and all the singers who came and went were temporary singers, most of whom were students who came out to do odd jobs before graduating from the conservatory of music.

At that time, there were many conditions for the assessment of recruiting resident singers in bars. In addition to passing the image and being able to sing and chat, the salary of singers who could play and sing would be higher than those who could only sing.

Many music students can play and sing, some play guitar, some play piano, and occasionally see pipa and guzheng.Most of these instruments can be brought by people, but the piano cannot be brought.As long as the college students who applied for the job at the beginning were asked if they could play and sing, they would play the piano in all likelihood. The more times they were asked, the bar bought another one.

But then Manzhu came, and there was no need to sing there temporarily, so the piano was naturally idle.

Zhang Ziyun pursed her lips, shook her head and said, "It's okay, let's talk about it when the time comes... If I can really borrow it, I will open the door every day after school at noon to practice there."

"Ah..." Lu Yudong couldn't help being taken aback.

"What? You have to work hard!" Zhang Ziyun said, suddenly grabbed Lu Yudong's arm, and asked, "Do you want to take the Yuanyin test with me?"

"I, I... Me?" Lu Yudong seriously suspected that he had heard it wrong.

But in the next second, Zhang Ziyun continued the conversation: "That's right, if we take the exam together, can't we go to the same university? When the time comes to report together, we can sleep together again!"

Lu Yudong was dumbfounded: "I, I have no foundation."

"I'll teach you, solfeggio and vocal music, I can teach you! I've been from elementary school to adulthood, we can practice together!" The more Zhang Ziyun talked, the more feasible it became, "I've heard you sing, and you have both pitch and rhythm. , the voice condition is not bad, at most it just can't let it go, and I don't know the correct way of vocalizing. I can teach you all of these... Moreover, Sister Manzhu can teach you, she sings so well, she can definitely teach you! "

Lu Yudong blinked his eyes blankly.

Zhang Ziyun pulled her arm and acted coquettishly: "Lu Yudong, why don't you accompany me, you don't accompany me... I don't even know how to talk to the boss! You know, the boss will agree to whatever you say, but I am different .”

"But, but I'm learning now, is there really still time?"

Every year in China, the art examination is half a year earlier than the college entrance examination. She is now a sophomore in high school, and it will take a year and a half to cram, which sounds strange and impossible.

"Okay, it's too late, you believe me. I have been learning vocal music with my professional teacher for so long, and I have seen people who only started to hug each other in the last half a year. You still have a year and a half! As long as you get the little three out of the way, When the time comes, you can just practice one piece, and then ask Sister Manzhu to help you figure out the details, and it won't be difficult to get a good grade in the art test!"

"Isn't it difficult to get a job in this major?"

"It's hard to get a job after graduating from many majors now, and most of the jobs are based on dead wages. They may not even be as high as our bar's wages. Anyway, they are all learning. What's the difference?"

"There are so many good singers, not everyone can be famous and earn money." Lu Yudong couldn't help hesitating, "And I get stage fright when there are too many people. Every year, I dare not participate in the festival party held by the class, let alone being a singer. It's..."

"Stupid! Who said that you can only be a singer if you study music? When you choose a major, you can choose behind-the-scenes. If you think you are not suitable for music performance, then choose music production!" Zhang Ziyun said, "Sister Manzhu sings so beautifully. , have you ever thought about writing a song for her? You will write a song in the future, and write a song for her every birthday, how happy she is."

"Even if you have a talent for songwriting, you can still learn recording, mixing, etc... Take a step back, as long as you learn the piano well enough, you can get a teacher's certificate to be a teacher in the future, and you can still teach others. For small classes, how much is a class, more than me standing at the bar all night!"

"Besides, apart from Yuanyin, there are no famous schools in Yuanchuan. Anyway, this year's art exam is in December. If you pass the exam, the cultural score requirements are low. With your grades, even if you finish the second semester of the third year of high school, you will be stable. Wouldn't it be easy to stay in Yuanchuan after being admitted? If you really don't pass the exam, you will still have time to make the final sprint!"

"If you pass the exam, we will be alumni again. If dormitories are allocated according to the order of registration, then we can still be roommates for another four years!"

What Zhang Ziyun said was so obvious that Lu Yudong was really moved when he heard it. If there is really so much money for giving a class to someone, he can really earn a lot of money in a month...

After a short hesitation, she raised her eyes and asked, "If you come to teach me, won't you delay yourself?"

Zhang Ziyun said: "No way, if I teach you, it is equivalent to re-consolidating myself!"

In this way, Lu Yudong was dazedly dragged by Zhang Ziyun to set the same goal - to work hard with Zhang Ziyun and get admitted to the Yuanchuan Conservatory of Music.

Lu Yudong hesitated for a long time before he dared to tell Manzhu this sudden decision.

In recent years, Lu Yudong has indeed rarely asked Man Zhu for anything, and now it is rare to ask for anything. Although it sounds difficult, Man Zhu still nodded and agreed immediately without thinking.

Manzhu not only agreed, but also gave Lu Yudong absolute support and encouragement.

However, she did not expect that Lu Yudong's sudden desire to learn music was actually influenced by Zhang Ziyun. Those two little girls wanted to be admitted to the same school in the future, and Zhang Ziyun decided to teach Lu Yudong some basics in music. We learn and practice together in front of the piano in the bar every day.

This requires the head teacher to issue a long-term exit ticket for them, and if you want to issue a long-term exit ticket, you must ask the parents to sign.

After learning the truth, Man Zhu thought for the first time that she didn't want to make things easier for Lu Yudong, but in the end she still signed Lu Yudong's application.

At the moment of signing, Manzhu had the idea of ​​burning money: "Shall I find you a professional teacher?"

Lu Yudong was taken aback: "It's so expensive!"

Manzhu asked, "Is it expensive?"

Lu Yudong replied: "What Zhang Ziyun said, 150 in music theory, 200 in solfeggio, 300 in vocal music..."

Manzhu said, "It's pretty cheap."

Lu Yudong added: "This is the price for one class."

Manzhu couldn't help falling into a long silence after listening.

Later, everyone in the bar began to persuade her.

"Zhang Ziyun has grown up from elementary school anyway, so it is more than enough to teach others the basic skills. Yudong wants to learn, and she is willing to teach, so let the two little girls do it on their own."

"I have a netizen who started to learn singing when he was in the second year of high school in the art test, and found a cheap music theory teacher to make up small lessons in the third year of high school. The teacher was only a freshman in school, and he still taught very well. I don't think Xiao Zhang is either. A few years younger than the first-year students, if she is willing to teach, let sister Yudong learn from her."

"Yeah, the free little teacher should not be in vain."

The reason is that there is nothing wrong with saying that, but Manzhu is not very happy.

These two girls are inseparable at school on weekdays, and after school they have to stick together to learn music all the time, how can she rest assured?

Seeing that Manzhu was depressed, Mu Shenshan kindly comforted him: "Okay, I'll keep an eye on it for you, and report any abnormalities to you at any time. Is this the head office?"

Manzhu was sullen for a while, and said: "No need, I figured it out a long time ago."

"After you figured it out, what are you still struggling with?"

"Why am I entangled? Where is it entangled? What is it entangled? Which eye of yours saw that I was entangled?" Manzhu became more and more irritable as she spoke. She slammed a table, gritted her teeth and stood up. Bend into a claw shape, holding a red aura, he held it up to Mu Shenshan, and asked coldly, "Have you had trouble with your eyes recently?"

In order to protect his eyes, Mu Shenshan slipped away immediately, he didn't even dare to mention the compensation, he just recorded it in the account book silently.

From then on, the two girls would take the bus to the old friends every day after school at noon. After eating something casually, they would go to the piano to practice their voice and singing. The whole bar was full of them "mimimi~mamama" ", "dododo~lalala", "Yeah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah."

Apart from vocal practice at noon every day, Zhang Ziyun would also teach Lu Yudong music theory in other spare time. Sometimes when he came across something he didn't understand, he would look it up on the Internet, and then tell Lu Yudong when he found out.

Later, they copied the lyrics from a notebook, and sang together on the top floor of the teaching building, in the corner of the playground, and in a small pavilion in the green area.If there was anything that made them feel particularly helpless, it must be that Zhang Hao would always come to these places to find them, making Lu Yudong always embarrassed to speak up.

In the second year of high school, the school held an art festival, and the two signed up for a chorus.

It was Lu Yudong's first performance on stage, and he was so nervous that his voice was trembling in the first half of the song, but finally healed up in the second half.

She never imagined that she won the ranking because she performed abnormally during the performance. Although this had a lot to do with Zhang Ziyun, it still gave her a lot of confidence.

The time of the second year of high school left as soon as it was said, and it was the first semester of the third year of high school in a blink of an eye.

After having a relatively solid foundation in music theory, Zhang Ziyun led Lu Yudong to practice singing scores and listening to sound identification.

I have to say that in order to be a good teacher, she downloaded an analog keyboard and a metronome on her mobile phone to help find the pitch and rhythm.

In mid-December, the two of them took the province's art exam together. Not long before the exam, Lu Yudong realized that he could only apply for the music performance major, and other majors had other assessment content.Zhang Ziyun also said that he would take the exam first, and then apply for another major, which is really a big fool.But it doesn't matter, if you don't know what to do in the future, there is always something wrong with being a teacher.

Thinking this way, Lu Yudong walked into the examination room nervously after being called.

On the day the exam ended, Lu Yudong finally ended his one-and-a-half-year-long practice of cramping.

However, she still can't relax. During this period of time, she more or less missed some cultural courses, and she has to continue preparing for the college entrance examination after returning to school.

Fortunately, when the results of the art test came down in March, she really passed, and the one and a half year's hard work was not in vain.

When the good news came, the two high school seniors jumped and screamed happily on the playground. What they knew was that they had passed the art test, but what they didn't know was that they thought there were two more little lunatics in the school.

On that Saturday, two girls who had just turned [-] had a few drinks for free with the consent of their adults, but they couldn't drink very well, and they just drank themselves dizzy.

That night, Zhang Ziyun's mother happened to be celebrating with Zhang Ziyun at the bar. Seeing that Zhang Ziyun was drunk, she took her home early, leaving only Lu Yudong sleeping on the wine table under the singing stage.

After get off work, Manzhu walked up to Lu Yudong's side, and as soon as she reached out to help her up, she saw her hands wrapping around the back of her neck.

The little girl's cheeks were flushed, and her right eye opened a gap.

"Go home and rest." Manzhu whispered the same old words that had not changed for many years in her ear as before.

"Hmm..." Lu Yudong nodded, opened his eyes and looked at Manzhu with a smile, and laughed, "Sister, I passed the exam!" After passing the art exam, as long as the cultural scores can pass the line, then he will be admitted. Yes, the little girl was so happy that she said all night, "I will study in the city in the future. The school is not far away. I can go home when I have time."

As Lu Yudong spoke, his whole body fell into Manzhu's arms.

The little girl who had to jump up to sit on the high stool and whose legs could still dangle, has now grown to 1.6 meters two, and she is a big girl in her arms.

Manzhu looked at Lu Yudong in her arms, and asked softly, "Can you still walk? How about I hug you?"

"I can walk." Lu Yudong said with a grin, "You can't hold me anymore, I'm almost as tall as you!"

"I can hug you." Manzhu said, "I can hug you even if you are an elephant."

After hearing this, Lu Yudong pouted, shook his head and said, "That's not necessary, I can walk by myself."

As she spoke, she withdrew from Manzhu's arms and walked towards the gate unsteadily.

Manzhu couldn't help shaking her head with a smile, stepped forward to support Lu Yudong, and brought her back home half-armed and half-hugged.

That night, Lu Yudong's hands and feet were very dishonest, and he didn't look as cute as he usually does when he sleeps.As soon as she got into bed, she put one leg on Manzhu's waist, then hugged her tightly with both hands, buried her head in the cold neck, and rubbed it lightly.

She acted like a little hooligan, but she fell into a dream as quickly as she could without doing anything.

Manzhu was surprised for a moment, but Lu Yudong fell asleep more and more.

The warm breath kept hitting her collarbone, and the faint smell of wine entered her nostrils, somewhat disturbing.

She hesitated for a long time, but in the end she still didn't have the heart to move, for fear of waking her up.

in case……

If she could be more selfish, she really wanted to keep Lu Yudong by her side forever, instead of silently watching Lu Yudong stick with other girls all day long.

But Lu Yudong just seemed like he would never leave that Zhang Ziyun. Six years of junior high school and high school were not enough, and he wanted to go to the same university as well...

It's just that they passed the unified art examination together, but didn't arrive at the college entrance examination, and the admission letter didn't come... Are you really so happy?

Maybe, it's really that happy.
