Chapter 314
Sitting on the stone bench, Ye Kai fiddled with the erhu a few times and tested the sound.
I felt that there was no problem, so I started to play the song officially.
There is an old saying that once you make a move, you will know if there is any.
Learning a musical instrument can't be learned in a day or two. Years of training to lay the foundation for several years can be said to be an introduction.
Who among these grandpas and aunts present here often plays the erhu and sings ditties at home?
It took decades for me to have the skills I have now. I formed a circle and sang a few verses in the park. I really can’t fit into this small circle without any skills.
The old man who lent the erhu looked back tactically, shook his head and said to his old friend: "Young people nowadays are amazing."
Ye Kai glanced at Saoirse proudly, and said clearly in his eyes, 'Look, I didn't lie to you, did I? '
What he played was a very famous opera in Yue opera, a piece that even people who didn't pay much attention to Yue opera would sing.
"Sister Lin fell from the sky, like a light cloud just emerging from Xiu..."
Ye Kai's voice changed instantly. His original voice was very magnetic, the kind that girls would turn red when they heard it, but now it became sullen and charming.
Can you really sing?
All of you here are veterans, and understand that Ye Kai's singing is the authentic pronunciation of Yue opera, and the voice line changes a lot, as if a woman is singing a male voice.
After singing these two lines, Ye Kai looked at the aunt who sang Peking Opera before, and nodded to her.
Auntie understood Ye Kai's meaning, and then sang: "I only know that he is reckless and frivolous in his belly, but his bones are so strange and not vulgar."
Although the articulation is not very accurate, but the voice is very beautiful.
Even though many singers have unique and pleasant voices nowadays, the real masters are still among the folks. These people who have been singing opera for many years will not lose to professional singers in terms of breath and tone.
Saoirse was also surprised.
Do you really know how to do it?
You are too versatile, right?How can everything...
And I'm not a novice yet, this proficient performance is obviously a sense of ease that I have practiced for many years. This feeling is a feeling that will only appear after I am very confident in my performance.
This level of practice can be said to be called a master on a single musical instrument.
After singing the song, Ye Kai stood up and returned the erhu to the uncle who lent him the erhu, saying: "Thank you, uncle, the sound quality of this erhu is very good, it's great."
"This is my treasure." The uncle asked with a kind face. "Young man, how long have you practiced the erhu?"
The aunt who sang the song with Ye Kai also said: "Yes, it's so nice. It's a bit awkward for me to play with you. I don't sing very well, and I rarely sing Yue opera."
The other senior groups gave this aunt a blank look, nonsense, the one you sing the most is Yue opera.
"I have been practicing for a long time. I used to be very interested in the culture of my motherland and learned a lot of classical musical instruments, but now they are useless, and I don't use them in general."
An old man stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "That's right, ah, I've been talking about reviving traditional culture, but revival is a bit of a revival, and it's not necessary."
"Yes, I have taught my little grandson for five or six years, and now he doesn't learn anymore, he has gone to learn piano."
Everyone chattered about the way out of traditional musical instruments, but in the end they played tunes in the park by themselves, entertaining themselves, which was a bit high-brow.
Ye Kai saw that the meeting would not be finished for a while, so he said: "Uncles and aunts, let's go first, the weather is not good today, and it may rain later, you should go home early."
"Thank you, young man. I knew it would rain when I went out today, so I brought an umbrella." An aunt said with a smile while picking up her umbrella.
The two of them had been out for more than an hour, and Ye Kai could only detect the change of the weather within two hours, so only now did he realize that it would rain in more than an hour.
Perhaps the hint from heaven was too obvious, and the group of dancing minorities also dispersed.
Ye Kai knew that it would start raining in an hour, so he didn't worry at all, he took Saoirse to a small lake with the most lotus leaves, rented a boat and disembarked.
The deposit is two hundred, and the charge is eighty per hour.
The uncle who rented the boat to them asked, "Can you rock the boat yourself? Do you want to find someone to help you sail?"
"No, I will drive." Ye Kai said.
When they were in the Netherlands, the two had been on such a boat, and Ye Kai had learned how to row the oars.
Saoirse lived on the Liffey River. When she jumped into the boat, she was very stable and sat directly on the bow. Ye Kai also jumped down quickly, sitting opposite Saoirse, holding the oar.
The boss took out the fixed anchor and threw it on the boat, saying: "It might rain in a while, if you see something wrong, hurry up and come back. It's a bit uncomfortable to be in the rain on the water."
Saoirse raised her hand: "Understood!"
Ye Kai knew that it would rain in an hour, but he didn't delay, and rowed towards the big lotus leaf. The blue waves on the water surface were broken into waves by the oars, and a little bit of water splashed on Saoirse's face.
Saoirse touched her face and asked suspiciously, "Is it raining?"
"It's still early."
With great strength, Ye Kai quickly slid between the lotus leaves, and a scent of fragrance was carried by the wind.
No wonder many delicacies in China are wrapped in lotus leaves. This fragrance should also be a kind of seasoning. In some places, there are lotus leaf soup and lotus leaf tea.
"There are fish in it!" Saoirse reminded Ye Kai.
But these fish are very cunning, when Ye Kai looked over, the fish flicked their tails and went deeper, leaving only circles of ripples on the water surface.
"The fish here seem to be impossible to catch, they grow so big."
There are a lot of fish in this lotus leaf, and you can often see fish under the water when boating here, with their mouths opening and closing as if they are asking for something from them.
But they didn't bring fish food, so they just ignored the big fish that wanted to eat.
There was a frog on the lotus leaf, and it croaked and jumped onto the boat when they were not paying attention. Saoirse screamed in fright, and was relieved after seeing it.
"Is this a frog?"
"Well, it's a frog, don't worry if it's not poisonous."
At this time, the frog also realized that something was wrong. He wanted to jump into the lake when he saw humans coming, so why did he jump on a human boat all of a sudden?
So it jumped high with a croak, and fell into the water with a thud.
The wind blows, the lotus leaves rustle, the fragrance of the lotus blows towards the face, and the fish swim around the boat, pouring into the water from time to time and flicking their tails, splashing a large amount of water.
Ye Kai looked at the fat fish, pondered for a moment, and said to Saoirse: "How about we eat fish later?"
"Okay!"
When he was in Hangzhou, Ye Kai ate a dish that was served on a plate with lotus leaves. It was filled with fish and meat. It was very fragrant and tasted like a lotus flower.
I don't know if the fish under the boat understood what Ye Kai said, and they stopped making noise for a while, maybe they felt that there was no food here, so they ran off to other people's boats.
