Entertaining Children

  Chapter 272 There is another job

   When Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting returned to Xiao Chengru’s courtyard, it was almost ten thirty in the morning, and Xiao Chengru had already returned. When the two walked into the courtyard, the old man was humming Peking opera happily while watering the potted plants in the courtyard.

  For the arrival of the two little guys, Xiao Chengru is naturally very happy. Hearing that the two of them even went to the park to find themselves, Xiao Chengru couldn't help but complain about Xiao Yao: "You said you kid, you want to bring Duo'er over to play, don't call grandpa in advance. Grandpa is also good to be at home waiting for you what."

"When I came to see you, I didn’t have the habit of calling you in advance." Xiao Yao said, "Your schedule can be checked in the studio. As long as you don’t go to the studio or go to the studio to give lectures, most of them It's always at home."

"What if I go to the theater? Of course, you are fine, even if you are not afraid of being closed-door, it is the first time that people come to Grandpa's place. Do you want her to eat closed-doors the first time she comes?" Xiao Chengru stared at Xiao Yao. .

   "Don't be afraid, I think it's a big deal here to go shopping." Xiao Yao smiled, "Duo'er is very curious about this old place, just like a curious baby, she keeps asking this and that."

   "I haven't been to such a place before." Sun Tingting said a little embarrassedly.

"Well, if you want this place, I will come to Grandpa's place often in the future." Xiao Chengru smiled to Sun Tingting, "Let Bayi take you around the yard, I'll go buy some food and eat here at noon. Try Grandpa's craftsmanship."

   "Okay, grandpa troubles me." Sun Tingting said generously. Before coming, Xiao Yao had already told her that every time he came over, he had to accompany her grandpa to eat at least a meal, so Sun Tingting was already mentally prepared.

   "No trouble, no trouble." Xiao Chengru waved his hands happily, put down the watering bottle in his hand, and walked out of the yard with his hands on his back.

  "Go, take you to visit Grandpa's study." Seeing Xiao Chengru's back disappearing outside the courtyard, Xiao Yao took Sun Tingting to Xiao Chengru's study.

   "Is this grandpa's study room? It feels like the study room in ancient times on TV, which is very different from my home study room." Sun Tingting followed Xiao Yao into Xiao Chengru's study room and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Grandpa's yard, the most distinctive feature is this study room." Xiao Yao placed Sun Tingting on a large armchair in front of the desk, and said, "I was sitting here and learning calligraphy and calligraphy from Grandpa. Painted."

   "Well, can you teach me how to write calligraphy?" Sun Tingting looked up at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk and said to Xiao Yao.

"Okay, anyway, Grandpa went to buy groceries and came back to cook. Let's have fun here. The other wing rooms are like bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, etc. They are no different from ordinary houses. It's nothing to behold." Xiao Yao opened the lid of the inkstone, poured a little water from the porcelain cylinder next to the inkstone, picked up Fang Mo and began to grind it.

   "By the way, let Grandpa cook alone in a while? Should we help?" Sun Tingting looked up at Xiao Yao.

"No, the kitchen is my grandfather's place. I was driven out by him to help. The first time you came today, it is even more impossible to let you into the kitchen." Xiao Yao spread a pile of rice paper in front of Sun Tingting. "What do you want to write, I will write it to you first, and then you will write it accordingly."

   "Let me think about it... soy bean juice, coke ring, sugar haws, rattles, starlings..." Sun Tingting thought for a while, and then said words one by one.

   "Huh? What are you all about?" Xiao Yao said a little dumbfounded.

   "These are all things I have seen today, I think they are all very interesting." Sun Tingting said.

   "Really a girl who has never seen the world before." Xiao Yao smiled.

   "You also know where my house is, and I don't have a grandfather who lives in such a place. Isn't it normal to have never eaten or seen these things?" Sun Tingting stared at Xiao Yao.

"Okay, normal." Xiao Yao said, "You can write whatever you want. Also, you can see that grandpa likes you very much. You can treat this as your own grandpa's home. You can come to him often if you have nothing to do in the future. ."

   "That is, this girl is loved by everyone, and the flowers are in bloom." Sun Tingting wrinkled her nose proudly, "But I am embarrassed to come over by myself, and I will come with you if I want to come."

   "Okay, I will come to see Grandpa later, I will bring you." Xiao Yao smiled, "Come on, stretch out your little hand, I will teach you how to hold the pen first..."

  Xiao Chengru came back from shopping, and saw the two of them writing and writing in the study happily, and did not bother to come in. Seeing that the time was almost up for dinner, I went into the kitchen happily to get busy. It was not until lunch was ready that Xiao Chengru went to the study to call the two out for dinner.

  Grandpa and grandchildren ate lunch happily and affectionately. After the meal, Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting chatted with Xiao Chengru for a while, then got up and left.

  Xiao Chengru also knew that these two young men and his old man didn’t have much to talk about. The two of them were already very happy thinking about coming to see them, so they didn't keep the sweet young couple and sent them out of the courtyard.

  I saw that Sun Tingting was very interested in the things in the old town in the morning. After coming out of Xiao Chengru's house, Xiao Yao simply took Sun Tingting to the overpass in Xuanwu District.

  Yenjing’s flyover was once regarded as an area with the typical characteristics of the old Yanjing civilian society. There were countless folk master craftsmen doing juggling performances on the flyover. After a large number of modern urban reconstruction and road expansion projects, although the atmosphere of the old Yanjing area has long disappeared in the Tianqiao area, there is also a folk culture museum here, which displays and displays the market culture that once existed here.

  Although you can no longer see the characteristic performances of the year such as climbing poles, practicing flags, and wrestling, in the cultural museum, you can still imagine the prosperity of the year through those exhibitions and introductions. In addition to the Cultural Museum, there is also a Tianqiao Theater and a Tianqiao Tea Garden. Although the theater performs movies, dramas and even ballet, which have nothing to do with Laotianqiao, in the tea garden, you can still enjoy traditional folk arts such as crosstalk, storytelling, Jingyun drum, Shandong Kuaishu, etc. left behind by Laotianqiao.

Basically all day, Sun Tingting, who is the tail of the 90’s, followed Xiao Yao, who was a few months younger than herself, and accepted the baptism and influence of the traditional culture of old Yanjing, and then she really knew her life. In the ancient city of eighteen years, there are still many things she doesn't know.

  After coming out of the overpass, Xiao Yao saw a "Goubuli" steamed bun shop when passing by Youanmen, and happily took Sun Tingting in to eat a traditional Tianjin snack for dinner. After such a day, Sun Tingting was greatly satisfied whether it was the desire for companionship, curiosity or appetite.

  At the end of the day’s date, Xiao Yao returned home to his contented Sun Tingting, and returned to his home happily.

   "Come back? Come and sit down and chat for a while." As soon as Xiao Yao entered the house, he was stopped by his parents sitting on the sofa in the living room.

   "Oh, what are you talking about?" Xiao Yao also sat down on the sofa with a big smile.

   "Went on a date with Doer today?" Ye Jiaying looked at Xiao Yao who was smiling.

   "Hmm." Xiao Yao nodded generously. There is nothing to hide.

   "It seems to have a good time." Xiao Siqi also smiled.

"Yes," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I took her to see Grandpa today, and found that she was very interested in the traditional things of Old Yanjing, so I took her to see a lot of things in this area. She was happy, and I naturally Happy too."

   "What? You took Duo'er to the old man's place." Xiao Siqi cried, "Are you the rhythm of meeting the parents? But if you want to meet, you also bring our family to see us first?"

   "Has Duo'er come to our house few times? Also, she hasn't seen Grandpa, and it's not that she hasn't seen you." Xiao Yao rolled his eyes and said.

   "That's different. Since you confirmed the relationship, Duoer hasn't been to our house yet." Xiao Siqi said.

"What's the difference? Also, why did you get involved in seeing the parents? When it comes to seeing people, don't you know her? How old are we two to talk about that kind of ceremony? We are not in high school yet. Graduation. Duoer didn't come to our house during this time, because there is nothing that must come." Xiao Yao couldn't help rolling his eyes and said.

   "Okay, your dad is teasing you." Ye Jiaying smiled and said to Xiao Yao, "He just said that."

"However, isn't it good for you to make appointments with Doer on weekends like this? Why did you hear that you did something for yourself again? Some time ago, you complained to us that you were busy and wanted to rest. Why do you say that when someone talks about it? Take the task to the upper body?" Ye Jiaying continued.

   "What do you mean?" Xiao Yao looked at Ye Jiaying in confusion.

   "I heard Cheng Xi say today that you promised to help Chen Chen write a song? Did you have an appointment to write together on the weekend?" Ye Jiaying said.

"Oh, yes." Xiao Yao said, "This Chen Chen can be regarded as my half master. I used to learn street dancing, rap, and graffiti with him. He asked me for help. I can't help but, let alone Cheng Xi and Chen Chen looked for me together. It doesn't matter if it's a little harder."

"Since you are not afraid of hard work, then I will also ask you something by the way." Xiao Siqi said, "First, after Chen Chen's song is produced, you will help him make it. On the one hand, Teacher Shen and I are engaged in rap music. Neither are very good at it. Another aspect is that Mr. Shen is now the main person in charge of preparing the women's folk orchestra. In addition to helping Fan Linxuan prepare the new album, I also need to help Mr. Shen with the preparations of the women's folk orchestra. Both of us are now. I don’t have time to be a producer for Chen Chen. Second, you can’t favor one another and contribute to Fan Linxuan’s new album. I don’t want too much, two songs, okay?"

   "Ah? Why do you pressure me to work again?" Xiao Yao suddenly said with a bitter expression.

"You came up with the idea of ​​the Women's Folk Orchestra, and you don't participate in the formation of the work, so you can help us share some other aspects." Xiao Siqi smiled, "We really don't have time to help Chen Chen record songs in the near future. Also, because To be distracted by the women’s folk band, Fan Linxuan’s new album is still missing two songs and did not help her find it, so let’s help her dad solve it. After considering the song "Dream Water Country", I still feel that it is not good. Suitable for Fan Linxuan, you can write her two more songs suitable for her to sing."

   "Okay," Xiao Yao nodded helplessly.

"By the way, I have something I want to say hello to you." Speaking of Chen Chen, Xiao Yao suddenly remembered what happened yesterday, "How is the artist assistant in the studio? How about Fan Linxuan's new album, Chen Chen Maybe a single will be released first, and there are more than a dozen people in the women's folk band who have to ask someone to say hello. The gap is so big, it shouldn't be filled yet, right?"

   "Of course it hasn't been filled yet," Ye Jiaying smiled, "I still lack a lot of people. But this is not too anxious for the time being. Why, do you have any ideas?"

   "It's not an idea, but I want to recommend a special person to you." Xiao Yao said.
