Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

Zhang Xuan and Wen Hui sat idle in Xingting for a long time. When they got up to leave, they met them head-on.

Shen Fan and a young woman.

This woman looked young, but upon closer inspection, she found that her hair was withered and yellow, her skin was rough, there were crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, and her hands were covered with calluses. His eyebrows are a little festive and his appearance is ordinary.

The two of them were standing very close to each other. They were holding hands just now, but when they met someone, their holding hands loosened without leaving any trace.

Yao Meier?

Shen Fan's fiancée?

Seeing Zhang Xuan and Wen Hui, Shen Fan said hello: Brother Xuan, Wen Hui.

Wen Hui smiled gently.

Zhang Xuan looked at the young woman and joked: Old Shen, why don't you introduce me?

Facing the teasing, Shen Fan reached out and pulled the young woman over, Brother Xuan, this is my wife, Yaomei'er.

This wife is a real wife, not a fiancée.

Yaomei's surname is Li, and her full name is Li He.

Li He and Shen Fan are Yao people from two neighboring villages deep in the mountains. They studied in the same school since childhood and are considered childhood sweethearts.

After finishing junior high school, Li He's grades were not as good as those of Shen Fan. He gave up his studies and returned to Shen Fan's home to help take care of his sick parents and several younger siblings to support Shen Fan's studies.

Because of this incident, Li He was ridiculed from all over the country.

Everyone laughed at her for being stupid and told her that if Shen Fan went out to study and became a city dweller, he would definitely abandon her.

Even Li He's cousin who was an errand in the town went back to the village to persuade her: the outside world is not as prosperous as in the mountains, and the women in the city are prettier than those in the mountains. If Shen Fan enters the city, he will definitely change his mind.

But Li He didn't believe it. She only said one sentence at that time: Believe in Shen Fan.

In fact, Li He was not sure at that time. She had heard many stories about the change of heart of the number one scholar in ancient times. But she knew that if she didn't help take care of Shen Fan's family, Shen Fan would have to drop out of school, and his great future would be gone.

She knew very well how difficult it was to become a scholar in this backward and poor mountain valley, so she persisted despite the strange looks around her.

But this time when Shen Fan went back to pick her up to come to Yangcheng, Li He said he didn't want to come, but in his heart, he was relieved. That day she held her head high and made a good return in the village.

Shen Fan wanted to bring Li He to the city, but Li He was unwilling, saying that he couldn't survive in the city without any skills. At least in the village, there is soil and fields, and you can feed sheep and cattle, and you can also pick medicinal materials without starving to death.

After Shen Fan's repeated requests, Li He finally agreed, but made one request: marry Shen Fan first, and then come to the city.

Shen Fan didn't have any hesitation about this matter.

I went to apply for a marriage certificate the next day.

On the third day, a banquet was held and relatives and friends were invited to witness their beautiful marriage.

After listening, Zhang Xuan and Wen Hui looked at each other and congratulated Shen Fan: Old Shen, Yaomei'er, happy wedding! I wish you a long life together!

Thank you. Shen Fan blushed a little, but Li He, who had been gossiped about for many years, did not show any shyness.

Shen Fan said to the two of them: Brother Xuan and Wen Hui, come to our house for dinner tomorrow. It will be the wedding banquet for me and Yao Meier.

good.

For such a big thing as a wedding banquet, Zhang Xuan and Wen Hui naturally wouldn't refuse since everyone had already asked for it.

After chatting around for a while, the four of them dispersed as it was getting late.

When Zhang Xuan and Wen Hui walked away, Li He suddenly asked Shen Fan: Is Zhang Xuan the capable person you often mentioned before?

Shen Fan said: Yes, Brother Xuan has helped us a lot.

Li He said: His girlfriend is so beautiful.

Shen Fan said: No, they are not a couple.

Li He's eyes widened: Aren't they a couple? At first glance, I felt that the two of them looked very much like a couple. They looked like a couple in the play.

Shen Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly corrected: Yao Mei'er, don't talk about this outside. They are really not a couple. Brother Xuan and Wen Hui are friends, but they have a very good relationship.

Li He looked back at his figure under the distant light and said, If they are not a couple, then why are they still together during the summer vacation?

Shen Fan couldn't help but look back, and then shook his head: Maybe it's a coincidence. Brother Xuan has another girlfriend, who is also very beautiful. She is a childhood sweetheart like us.

Li He held Shen Fan's arm and said, That's right. Maybe my intuition is wrong.

Shen Fan said: Your intuition must be wrong. Brother Xuan is very dedicated. There are many beautiful girls in the school who are chasing him but he has never been tempted.

Li He asked: What dishes shall we prepare to entertain them tomorrow?

On the other side, when Zhang Xuan and Wen Hui walked downstairs to the teachers' apartment, they found a pair of old professors leaving with their 10-year-old granddaughter and a middle-aged man.

The ones carrying big and small bags left.

Watching the four of them go down the stone steps and leave, Zhang Xuan smacked his lips and said, Come on, the last companion is leaving too. There are only two of us left in this building now. You can practice piano day and night from now on.

Wen Hui glanced at him and walked towards the entrance of the corridor.

Zhang Xuan knew what she meant and expressed his position: You are going to participate in the competition soon. Just practice piano as you like. Don't treat me like a human being.

Wen Hui asked: You don't write?

Zhang Xuan said: I can't write it.

Wen Hui stopped: What about you?

Zhang Xuan looked at the corridor leading to the third floor and answered the question inappropriately: I like to hear you play the piano. Is it convenient tonight?

Wen Hui was a little surprised: Now?

Well, now.

Zhang Xuan said without hypocrisy and from the heart: You may not believe it, but every time I listen to you playing the piano, I feel like my whole person is being sublimated and purified.

My thoughts were so peaceful that I even had an idea.

Wen Hui took the lead to walk to the third floor and asked softly: What are you thinking?

Zhang Xuan said: Looking for a quiet countryside, while looking for creative inspiration in the human world, while listening to you play the piano.

Wen Hui looked at the cement steps under her feet and remained silent.

Zhang Xuan said in a negotiating tone: If you agree, I will pay you, and I guarantee your satisfaction.

Wen Hui still didn't respond, walked to the door, opened the door and walked in.

Going straight to the piano room, Wen Hui opened the curtains, then sat in front of the piano and looked at him.

Zhang Xuan pulled up a chair and sat on the side, and asked: Have you ever tried to play the song Exodus?

Wen Hui nodded, and placed her green and round fingers on the black and white keys. After a few seconds of silence, her ten fingers suddenly began to rhythm rapidly, bursting out an exciting melody in an instant, and the grand and tragic historical feeling of the piano music hit her nostrils.

The song lasted about 3 minutes.

Zhang Xuan listened for three minutes with his eyes closed, constantly comparing Wen Hui's music with Maxim's playing techniques that he had heard live in his previous life...

When the last note ended, Wen Hui put her hands on the piano and looked up at him again.

Seeing her waiting for his evaluation, Zhang Xuan thought about it and expressed the characteristics of Maxim's playing euphemistically: The playing is very distinctive, but I think if the rhythm is faster, the experience may be different.

The style of music can be more majestic in terms of momentum, which may make it more tense and infectious, and also more shocking.

Seeing Wen Hui still looking at him without blinking.

Zhang Xuan rubbed his eyebrows and said, Hey, don't look at me like that, I'm just an amateur.

It's just that when I first watched the movie Exodus, I had some feelings from the writer's perspective.

At that time, I was thinking, if I use my pen to write, how should I describe the magnificence, tragedy and sadness of this history?

For example, the prosperity of the past, the fierce horses that once neighed wildly, the smoke that once soared, and the dance steps that are still whirling.

There are also the exciting drums, solemn Buddhas, slow-moving caravans, dilapidated post roads, desolate ancient cities, seven or eight wild horses, three to five glasses of blood-red wine, and the continuous castles. There are those who are baptized by the vast desert and are desolate and mottled.”

At this point, Zhang Xuan stared into her eyes and said, This was the touching moment I watched Exodus in London that day.

Then I thought of you again at that moment, and I felt that everything has the same purpose in some ways of expression.

At that time, I had an instinct that told me that if this song was played with a blasting piano rhythm, it might have unexpected miraculous effects. This is why I sent the video tape on a whim.

Imagine in your mind: leaning between the white sand and the blue sky, what kind of intoxicating painting is this?

How is this shocking and silent?

I think your music should be successful as long as it expresses the core ideas of the excitement of the people, the yearning for freedom, and the pursuit to the death.

After listening to this, Wen Hui pondered for a long time and then said: No wonder you can write such a good novel, your imagination is so wild.

Zhang Xuan was ashamed, and then accepted it as a matter of course.

He asked expectantly: Do you want to try it?

Wen Hui was a little moved, but felt that she might not be able to meet Zhang Xuan's requirements, but after hesitating for a few seconds, she still tried.

The first time, Zhang Xuan said that his momentum was still a bit lacking.

The second time, he still said his momentum was a bit weak.

The third time, Zhang Xuan once again said that his momentum was a bit weak.

For the fourth time, before Zhang Xuan could speak, Wen Hui said to herself: The momentum is still a bit lacking.

For the fifth time, Zhang Xuan stopped talking.

After that, they just listened quietly, looked at her quietly, and stopped talking.

Just looking at this comfortable person, Zhang Xuan slowly discovered that the piano was gone, the music was gone, the house was gone, and the world was gone.

It seemed as if nothing else could be found in his eyes except the other person.

I don’t know how long this situation lasted…

At a certain moment, Wen Hui, who was playing, interrupted the sound of the piano. She felt something was wrong and when she raised her head, she happened to meet Zhang Xuan's strange eyes.

After just facing each other for a moment, Wen Hui seemed to have encountered a force majeure disaster, and her head exploded with a bang.

looking at each other

Suddenly, Zhang Xuan lowered his head and came closer. Wen Hui instinctively wanted to hide.

But this time the old man was much faster than last time. Wen Hui, who was still in a daze, was unable to escape like last time and was kissed firmly.

Wen Hui was a little panicked, and her helpless body subconsciously leaned back on the chair, hoping to make room.

But it was no use, the two were still close.
