Middle Age: A Leisurely Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 9 Ten Mile Peach Blossom Tavern

Yu Dongqing parked the small pedal and opened the door to enter. The light inside was a little dark. The wine bottles of various colors on the wine racks on the bar were dazzling. The tables and chairs were placed under the graceful light. The old objects add a lot of cultural sense.

Liu Yimin runs a folk music bar. Regardless of his beard, he likes to wear black round-neck shirts in summer, with a thumb-thick gold necklace around his neck, and two strings of Buddhist beads on his wrists. He looks like a black club.

In fact, among the four, he is the most literary and youthful. He especially likes ancient Chinese poetry. The spring breeze blows, and the peach blossoms and tears in ten miles." Otherwise, I would not open a folk bar here that is not very profitable.

However, today Yu Dongqing found that there were quite a few people inside.

"Business is good." Yu Dongqing greeted Liu Yimin who was busy at the bar.

"It's okay, the ladybug band has been singing here recently."

Yu Dongqing heard Liu Yimin mention the name of this band, and he said that it was a folk track, but it also sang pop and rock, and the track was very complicated, and it was still a little famous among the underground bands in the imperial capital.

He turned his head and looked, and saw four young people sitting on the singing stage in the bar, adjusting their musical instruments. It seemed that the concert would start soon.

But he doesn't care about it.

"Where's Zhang Yang?" Yu Dongqing asked again.

"In the backyard, you go first, I'll arrange to come right away."

Yu Dongqing went out from the back door, and saw that the yard was lit, and a barbecue pit was set up under the peach tree. A man in a white shirt, tie, and curly hair was roasting mutton on the charcoal stove with his sleeves rolled up. Skewers, the yard is filled with attractive fragrance.

It was my good friend Zhang Yang, who was from the Department of Physics.

Unlike Liu Yimin, who was born and bred in the imperial capital, his hometown is in Harbin in the northeast. After graduation, he returned to his hometown to teach for two years and then resigned.

After wandering around for a year, I saw that I was hopeless on the road of singing, so I taught others to play the guitar, and finally held training courses. Later, I opened a piano store, and then opened a musical instrument training center. I found a girl from the imperial capital. Everything is considered a successful career.

Seeing Yu Dongqing coming, Zhang Yang hurriedly called him over to help him.After Yu Dongqing went into the house and washed her hands, she helped put on the sheep's waist, and when she found that Du Hui was not in sight, she asked.

"Where's Du Hui? You haven't come yet?"

"I came early, I'm on the phone, I'm over there." Zhang Yang moved his mouth towards the northeast corner of the yard, and Yu Dongqing realized that there was a person standing in the dark beside the fence.

"This guy has a second life," Zhang Yang said in a low voice.

Du Hui and his ex-wife, they are both college classmates, unlike Yu Dongqing who entered the society after graduating from college, Zhang Yang studied economics and has been studying until he got a Ph. He also obtained the title of associate professor and published many academic articles on economics.

He was invited to lectures from time to time, and earned a lot of extra money. His career was smooth sailing.

But the marriage is not going well. I divorced my wife five years ago because of emotional discord. I heard that I have an ambiguous relationship with a female college student at school.

Du Hui wears glasses and is gentle and elegant. He wears a T-shirt and trousers. He maintains a good figure, unlike Liu Yimin and Zhang Yang who have put on weight. I heard that they are very popular with girls in school.

But this is a personal matter, even a good buddy can't say much about it.

At this time, Du Hui also helped out after washing his hands after making the phone call. Seeing that Yu Dongqing was still concerned about his daughter.

"Is it still your father-in-law who will help pick you up?"

"Ah."

"Then your relationship?"

"It's still the same. The old man doesn't want to see me. On weekends, Mingmei sends the children around, and sometimes helps." Yu Dongqing said honestly.

"Holly, your sister-in-law treats you well." Du Hui's tone was a little ambiguous.

"Nonsense, as the saying goes, my sister-in-law's half-ass is my brother-in-law." Zhang Yang interjected.

After speaking, both of them laughed.

Yu Dongqing didn't respond, it's only normal for men to joke like this.

No excuses needed.

The three of them were busy, Liu Yimin came out of the bar in a hurry, holding a large barrel of draft beer in one hand.

"Yimin, what do you do when you come to the bar?" Yu Dongqing asked with concern.

"It's okay, Wei Fang will take care of it."

Wei Fang is Liu Yimin's daughter-in-law, and she is warm and cheerful, so this has become a place where they often meet.

"Let my sister-in-law come too, she cleaned all the meat and shrimp, it's been hard work for most of the day." Zhang Yang said hastily.

"that is."

Yu Dongqing and Du Hui hurriedly agreed.

"I asked her, she didn't want to come, and said that you guys are just drinking and bragging when you are together, or you can talk about chasing girls when you were in college. It's better to listen to people singing in the bar."

After listening to Liu Yimin's words, everyone laughed.

What can men say together?
Except for national affairs, that is, the matter of picking up girls in the past.

After working for a while, everyone sat on a small bench, gathered around a table and began to drink and eat meat, with their mouths full of oil, and they didn't have to worry about their own image.

"Having wine, meat, and friends, the small life is really good." Thinking of the busyness of the previous life, Yu Dongqing couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Holly, you're right." Zhang Yang took the topic and laughed: "But, you said there is still one thing missing: a beautiful girl!"

"Haha girl"

As soon as the girl was mentioned, everyone immediately became interested, and immediately talked about interesting things in school.

"Zhang Yang, I remember how many girls you liked in the music department when I was in college." Yu Dongqing laughed.

"That's it. Dude Yushu Linfeng, who can play the guitar and is also the striker of the football team in the department. Which girl doesn't like a stand on the court?" Zhang Yang looked smug.

"It's a pity that you guys are hurting people. You insist on forming some kind of band, dragging me to practice every day and delaying my pick-up. I cry when I think about it." Speaking of this, he deliberately sighed.

"Come on, that round-faced girl is from the class next door. Every time we rehearse, the girl looks at you from the sidelines. It's because you don't want to talk to other girls!" Du Hui retorted.

"Heaven and earth conscience, people don't look at me, they look at Dongqing. The girl told me that she likes Yu Dongqing!"

Everyone laughed.

In fact, it's all just talk.

Everyone ate and drank, talking and laughing, Zhang Yang poured several large glasses of beer into his belly, blushed like a monkey's buttocks, lit a cigarette and took two puffs, and suddenly said: "I have an itchy throat, Yimin, bring a guitar!"

Liu Yimin quickly took out an electric guitar and an amplifier from the bar, and Du Hui helped plug it in.

"Remember the song we sang before? I want to sing it again!" Zhang Yang said loudly holding the guitar.
