1987 My Era

Chapter 378, Shocking! Shocking! Teacher Yu wants to resign

The movie "The Last Emperor" ended and the students began to leave the classroom one after another.

Li Heng sat motionless in his seat, still immersed in his own world of pure music.

"Li Heng, it's time for us to go." After walking a distance with Wei Xiaozhu, Mai Sui realized that there was one person missing behind them. She ran back to wake him up, feeling both amused and helpless.

"Oh, okay." After Li Heng woke up, he responded, stood up and followed him out of the classroom.

Wei Xiaozhu asked him: "Were you thinking about your own things just now? Didn't you watch the movie?"

We are all top students at Fudan University, and some things cannot be hidden. Li Heng did not lie: "Yes, I watched this movie last year."

Wei Xiaozhu wanted to ask a few more questions, but when she looked at her good friend Mai Sui beside her and thought of the scene where Li Heng and Mai Sui were kissing passionately in the corner, she gave up the idea of ​​asking further questions.

At a crossroads, Li Heng asked, "Are you planning to continue walking around the campus? Or?"

Wei Xiaozhu said, "I have something to do and need to go to my aunt's house."

Li Heng and Mai Sui looked at each other and said almost at the same time: "Then we'll take you there."

Aunt Wei Xiaozhu lived in the Red Building in Yanyuan, so the two of them made a special trip to see her off.

Looking up at the lights on the second floor, Wei Xiaozhu said to the two of them, "That's it. Thank you."

"Okay, Mai Sui and I will leave first. See you later."

"goodbye!"

Standing in the corridor and watching the two people leave side by side, Wei Xiaozhu turned around and saw her aunt. She was startled: "Aunt, when did you come out?"

Wei Yining asked: "Did Li Heng and Mai Sui send you here?"

Wei Xiaozhu was a little surprised: "You know Mai Sui?"

Wei Yining nodded: "Li Heng and her often come here to stroll along the small bridge and flowing water, and Mai Sui is the host of the school party, so she will recognize him after seeing him many times."

Wei Xiaozhu looked back at the two figures that were about to disappear and suddenly asked, "Aunt, do you think they are a good match?"

Wei Yining was surprised, "Didn't you say that Li Heng has another girlfriend?"

Seeing that his niece was silent, Wei Yining hesitated for a moment and said, "Are you referring to Mai Sui? It takes courage to fall in love with a man like Li Heng."

Wei Xiaozhu was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Wei Yining said: "My intuition tells me that Li Heng will be a passionate person."

Wei Xiaozhu asked with a smile: "What is the basis of your intuition?"

Wei Yining said: "In terms of the perfection of his facial features, he looks no worse than girls, which is quite rare."

Wei Xiaozhu was speechless after hearing this. Thinking about it, it was indeed the case. There was no blind spot in his eyebrows, eyes, mouth, nose, ears and facial contours, and there was no way to refute it.

Wei Yining glanced at her and reminded her, "You must keep a certain distance from him and never fall in love with him, otherwise you will suffer in the future."

Wei Xiaozhu smiled, said "I understand", and followed her aunt into the house.

the other side.

Seeing that he almost bumped into the roadside trees several times while walking, Mai Sui raised his right hand in front of him and finally couldn't help asking: "What are you thinking about?"

Li Heng's eyelids blinked along with her hand, "I'm thinking about the album. My mind is full of songs."

"song?"

"Ah."

"Like the original scenery of hometown?"

"Correct."

After receiving a positive reply, Mai Sui looked at him with a twinkling look in her eyes, "Want to write it tonight?"

"Write. Plan to stay up all night."

"I'll accompany you."

With just one sentence "I'll be with you", the two looked at each other and smiled, and everything was said without words.

At the entrance of the alley in Lushan Village, Li Heng ran into Zhou Shihe and Ye Ning. The two women were holding books in their hands and must have just returned from the library.

Four pairs of eyes collided, and Ye Ning spoke first: "Huh? Where did you two go? Didn't you go to the library to read?"

Li Heng said: "We owe Wei Xiaozhu a meal, let's go treat him."

"Tsk! Why don't you invite me and Shihe to the dinner? Do you still want this friendship? Are we still friends?" Ye Ning walked directly between Li Heng and Mai Sui, separated the two, and asked jokingly.

Li Heng touched his pocket and said, "I still have some money in my pocket. I'll treat you and Shi He tomorrow."

"That's pretty much it."

Ye Ning was very satisfied with his answer, and then changed the subject: "By the way, Li Heng, my cousin wrote to me and asked about you in a roundabout way.

Don't think I didn't see that she still has feelings for you! She wrote the letter for you, and I was just a by-product."

Mai Sui and Zhou Shihe looked at each other and laughed.

Li Heng seemed frank: "How is Senior Ye doing in America?"

"There's no need to worry about her. She was able to become the president of the Fudan Student Union based on her own abilities. Her methods are much more powerful than you think. She's doing very well in the United States now." Ye Ning always had complicated feelings towards this cousin. He had the concern of a family member, but also the jealousy of having lived in the shadow of his cousin since childhood.

Li Heng nodded and believed it.

Just as Ye Ning said, no matter who is the president of the student union in a famous university, no one should underestimate him.

The other party either has a good family background or is very capable. It is impossible for a mediocre person who has nothing to reach that position.

Of course, this refers to famous schools. The president of the student union of a famous school is valuable. It is another story for lower-quality universities.

What's more, this is an era when universities have not yet expanded their enrollment, and Ye Zhanyan's personal abilities are beyond doubt.

After returning to Lushan Village, Li Heng did not dare to delay and rushed into the study.

Seeing this, Mai Sui boiled a thermos of water and followed in.

Ye Ning turned around and asked Zhou Shihe, "I heard that he wrote a song, a song like 'Original Scenery of Hometown', Shihe, why don't you go in and take a look?"

Zhou Shihe was more fond of instrumental music and was somewhat tempted, but still did not follow. Wen Wan said, "I'm a little sleepy, I'll go to bed later."

"Hey!"

Ye Ning groaned, stood up, and walked out the door: "That's boring. You really treat me as an outsider."

After saying that, Ye Ning came and left again.

Zhou Shihe quietly looked at his friend's back and did not try to keep him.

Ye Ning did not return to his dormitory, but went to the girls' dormitory building No. 12 and found Sun Manning.

Sun Manning asked, "Why are you here? I just finished my work and was planning to go to Lushan Village to play with you guys."

"Bullshit! Li Heng is going to compose a song tonight, and Sui Sui went to the study with him. In order to keep me company, Shi He pretended to be sleepy and didn't go." Ye Ning complained.

Sun Manning asked with a smile: "What do you know?"

Ye Ning pointed at her and said, "Do you really think I'm stupid? Do you really think I didn't see that Sui Sui has a crush on Li Heng?

I tell you, I saw it a long time ago, otherwise why would I cooperate with you so much?"

Sun Manning didn't care: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."

"That's right. Sui Sui even helped him wash his clothes, and even his socks and underwear. If she didn't have someone in her heart, who would do such a thing that would lose points as a top student at Fudan University!" Ye Ning said.

Sun Manning asked: "Then are you going back to Lushan Village?"

"Not going back. Let Shihe go to the study to accompany them." Ye Ning said.

Sun Manning shook her head, "Shi He won't go."

Ye Ning thought about it and felt that it made sense. "Then I won't go back. It's too embarrassing."

Hearing this, Sun Manning gave up the idea of ​​joining in the fun and climbed onto the bed: "Come up, let's sleep together tonight."

study.

As soon as he entered the room, Li Heng unscrewed his pen, spread out his notebook, sat on a chair, sorted out all his thoughts, and then started to work.

Mai Sui first poured him a cup of tea, and then felt that the room was a bit stuffy, so she got up and walked to the window, quietly opened the window halfway to let in the fresh air from outside.

After doing all this, she returned to her seat on the left side of the desk and looked at him quietly.

After almost a year of close contact, their feelings for each other have gradually become clear, and they have even had several physical encounters.

If Mai Sui didn't have the ethical and moral burden, if she didn't have a knot in her heart, with her love for him, she would have opened her body and soul to accept him long ago.

Yu Shuheng appeared in the attic of No. 25 with a cup of coffee in her hand. She looked at the two of them for a while, then went back to the house, turned off the lights, and went to the attic again. She came to the astronomical telescope and put all her attention on the vast universe.

Teacher Yu had long been aware of the bond between Li Heng and Mai Sui. She was now at a crossroads, and the attempts she had made a few days ago had failed to break the shackles in her heart.

In fact, when she had free time, she would sometimes wonder what would have happened if she hadn’t let go of his hand that night?
What will happen if you don’t lock the door?
What would happen if I just pointed it out myself?
He took out the spare key and came into the bedroom. Would everything be fine?
Yu Shuheng understood that her family background was too high and she was a university teacher, which restricted her. At least in her eyes, this boy was definitely not a gentleman.

The coffee aroma was rich and the June night breeze was neither too cold nor too hot, which was very suitable for recuperation. Yu Shuheng glanced at the two people opposite her who were as still as an ink painting, and her heart was calm.

After nearly 3 hours of writing, Li Heng wrote 9 songs.

They are:
The Last of the Mohicans

The Mark of Rain

"The Street Where the Wind Lives"

"Dongting Lake Wonderland" (renamed from Anne's Wonderland)

"Summer" (originally titled "Kikujiro's Summer")

Memories of the Forbidden City

"nightingale"

Hexi Corridor

With Orchids

Originally he wanted to write "Castle in the Sky", but my memory of this song is a bit vague. I wonder if it was released after 88?
Now I don’t have a computer or the internet to search, and the information in China is blocked, so I have to temporarily put “Castle in the Sky” aside and look for information when I have a chance. If this song has already been released, it’s fine. If not, wow! Let’s talk about it later!
Li Heng did not feel disappointed when he temporarily replaced "Castle in the Sky" with "The Street Where the Wind Lives". After all, they are both classics, so he could gain something in return. Moreover, the latter is a duet of erhu and piano, and erhu is his best instrument, which is very suitable for his own interpretation.

"Did you finish writing?"

Mai Sui can sing and knows a small part of the music score, but she can't tell the good from the bad when a piece of music is played continuously. It can be seen that he revised and created for nearly 3 hours and wrote 9 pieces in one breath. I am still happy for him.

"Ah."

Li Heng hummed, reached out and snatched the teacup from her hand, drank it all in one breath, and then pushed it in front of her, "I'm so thirsty, pour me another cup."

Mai Sui did as he was told and poured him another cup.

After drinking two glasses of water in a row, Li Heng looked at his watch and said, "It's almost 1 o'clock. Let's go to bed."

Hearing the words “Let’s go take a shower and go to bed”, Mai Sui’s ears became hot. He stood up and left the study quietly.

After washing up, Mai Sui hesitated whether to go back to Building 27?
But after meeting Li Heng's eyes, her hesitation disappeared instantly and she went to the second bedroom.

There was no rain or thunder that night. Li Heng leaned on the bedside table and pondered over the literature for a while before falling into a deep sleep.

...

the next day.

Li Heng was woken up by someone shaking him. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw wheat ears on the bedside. "Well, what time is it?" He asked dazedly.

"It's almost 8 o'clock. Shihe and Teacher Yu are here and are outside in the living room." Mai Sui told him.

Li Heng understood almost immediately, "Are you here to watch the music?"

Mai Sui explained sheepishly, "When Shi He and I were talking downstairs about the song you composed last night, Teacher Yu heard it and came along."

Li Heng yawned and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay. Teacher Yu is not an outsider. We will have to rely on her when the time comes to record the album."

"Okay, then get up quickly." Mai Sui glanced at his bedding, and the image of the bulge he had seen before unconsciously emerged in his mind, and he immediately left the bedroom.

After getting dressed and getting out of bed and finishing his breakfast quickly, Li Heng took Zhou Shihe and Yu Shuheng into the study.

"Teacher, Shihe, the songs are all here, please take a look."

He took out nine music scores from the drawer and gave them to the two women.

With the two excellent songs "Original Scenery of Hometown" and "The Last of the Mohicans" as her precedent, Yu Shuheng, who loves music, did not dare to take it lightly. She took over the music score very carefully and gave a part to Shihe. The whole process was serious and solemn, which seemed very ceremonial.

Teacher Yu was holding four pieces in his hand: "Memories of the Forbidden City", "Nightingale", "Hexi Corridor" and "With Orchids".

After she finished reading them carefully one by one, she was completely stunned. She stared at Li Heng for a long time in silence.

Zhou Shihe was no less impressed. After savoring the other five songs, he was even more shocked than Teacher Yu!
It’s even more shocking than the first time I heard “The Original Scenery of Hometown”!
After all, "The Original Scenery of Hometown" is only one song, but now I have 5 songs of the same level in my hands!
As the saying goes, an expert can tell whether something is good or not with just one look!

Although it is still unclear what the quality of the repertoire in Mr. Yu's hands is, Li Heng is already famous and renowned in the global music world, and is already a legendary musician with only the five songs in his hands!
Attention! It's a musician!
They are not some random singers or vocalists; they are not even on the same level as musicians!
The study was very quiet. You looked at me, I looked at you, and then we both looked at Li Heng, who was sitting at the desk leisurely drinking tea, with surprised expressions on their faces.

At this moment, the two women's surprise was the same, but also different!

The same thing is that no matter whether it was the wealthy and noble lady Yu Shuheng or the gifted girl Zhou Shihe, they all felt admiration for him at that moment.

If it was the song "Original Scenery of Hometown" that made them both admire his musical talent.

After this series of punches, his image in the eyes of the two women immediately became as high as a mountain, extremely tall and admirable!
The difference is that Yu Shuheng felt a little regretful. As for what she regretted, she was in shock and her mind was blank for a moment.

Zhou Shihe was much simpler and somewhat fortunate. She was fortunate to have met him and to be able to witness the birth of a miracle firsthand.

A woman's sixth sense told her that when these songs were released to the world, Li Heng would become one of the most popular musicians in the country and even in the world, and would surely win numerous awards, praises, and titles.

As a person who aspires to become a world-renowned piano master like her teacher Wu Yili, Zhou Shihe's ambition has always been clear: to follow her teacher's path and eventually surpass her.

She had this idea not out of blindness, but it was a life goal set for her by Wu Yili herself, who said that she had an extraordinary talent for piano and so she deserved this.

And Wu Yili didn't just talk about it, but taught her carefully one-on-one for three years, until she had imparted all the knowledge and skills to her. She only let her go when there was nothing left to teach her.

Wu Yili was her last teacher. After she graduated from here, no piano teacher in China dared to take over teaching Zhou Shihe.

The reason is simple. Even Master Wu can't teach her, so why should others humiliate themselves?
Everyone was waiting, waiting for Zhou Shihe to participate in an international piano competition when she was 20 years old, and then she would soar to fame.

The age of 20 is the limit Wu Yili set for her. Because she is so talented, she is afraid that she will become proud and hopes she can settle down for another two years.

Zhou Shihe originally thought that his talent in piano had satisfied his teacher, but now he truly understood the teacher's good intentions in the arrangement. It is true that there are always people better than you.

Compared with the person in front of her, she suddenly felt that she was very ordinary.

His writing has made him a legendary writer, and his composing music touches people's hearts directly. Zhou Shihe unconsciously stroked the music score in his hand with his right thumb and index finger. While he couldn't let it go, he was completely relieved and understood why his best friend Mai Sui had such a special liking for him and never left him even though he knew he had a partner.

Seeing Teacher Yu, who is well-versed in music, and Shihe looking at Li Heng in amazement, Mai Sui felt a ripple in his heart for no reason, and his mind became exceptionally open, as if he had crossed the plains, passed over the mountains, and embraced the entire world.

Yu Shuheng came back to his senses and his face changed for the first time. He swallowed hard and asked solemnly, "When did you start composing these songs?"

In this regard, Li Heng still used the same old excuse, "It has been many years, I can't remember exactly when, sometimes when I was playing in the wild, I would have a feeling of blessing, and then I would record it intermittently, accumulating year after year to achieve the current harvest."

With the original scenery of hometown in mind, Yu Shuheng thought it was absurd, but she still chose to believe it, because in her opinion, geniuses in history are mostly like this.

Teacher Yu asked expectantly, "Apart from these, are there any more?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shihe's eyes lit up and he also looked closely into Li Heng's eyes.

Mai Sui poured a cup of tea for the three people, then refilled his own cup and sat beside him waiting for him to speak.

Facing the gazes of the three people, Li Heng nodded, "Yes, but they are still scattered and have not been sorted out yet. I started preparing these after the Spring Festival Gala, and it has been nearly half a year and I have only sorted out 8 songs."

Yu Shuheng: “.”

Zhou Shihe: “.”

Wheat ear: “.”

It’s only been half a year and I’ve only compiled 8 songs!
Listen, is this human talk?
Don’t you even think about the value of these songs?

Do you really think you can just pick them up from the ground?

If they could devote their entire lives to creating one song, they would die without any regrets.

Yu Shuheng and Zhou Shihe looked at each other in tacit understanding, and then exchanged the songs in their hands.

After a long while, when they had finished reading all nine scores, Yu Shuheng could no longer hold back and said to Li Heng, "For "The Street Where the Wind Lives", you will play the erhu and piano duet. Let's go to the piano room."

Li Heng turned to Zhou Shihe.

Zhou Shihe nodded. She had always been unmoved by external things, but she made an exception when she encountered such a good piece of music. She also wanted to verify the effect of playing the music score.

Carrying the erhu, the group of four came to the piano room in Building No. 27.

Still in the familiar place, still in the original position, Li Heng sat on the left side of the piano and said to Zhou Shihe: "You just came into contact with the music score today, you should familiarize yourself with it twice first."

If it was an ordinary piece of work, Zhou Shihe would surely be able to perform it easily after just a quick glance, but today he was particularly serious and began to familiarize himself with the music score with hope.

Li Heng, Yu Shuheng and Mai Sui did not rush them, nor did they make any noise to interfere. They just waited patiently by the side.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhou Shihe slowly raised his head, placed his hands on the black and white piano keys, and looked at Li Heng with bright eyes, as if saying: It's okay, I'm fine.

Li Heng understood and picked up the erhu again.

After sitting quietly for four or five seconds, Zhou Shihe's slender fingers moved on the piano keys, and immediately the piano room, where one could hear a pin drop, was filled with a pleasant melody.

After the piano prelude, Li Heng also moved. But when his erhu produced the first sound, the three women in the room paused.

Mai Sui is an amateur, he just thinks it sounds nice and is brought into a fresh world by the erhu sound.

But Teacher Yu was different. She leaned against the piano, put her hands around her chest, and slowly closed her eyes. At this moment, she felt that everything in her vision was redundant. Only by closing her eyes and listening quietly could she live up to his talent and such a song.

Zhou Shihe's heart skipped a beat and she looked at him subconsciously, with a brighter light in her eyes than ever before.

"The Street Where the Wind Lives" is more like telling a story than a piece of music.

The story mentions that the street where the wind lives is a place full of winds. There are all kinds of shops on both sides of the street. Various kinds of wind live on the street, including breeze, gentle breeze, light breeze, strong wind, gale, tornado, hurricane, etc.

These winds symbolize various emotions and experiences in life, a nostalgia for the past and a search for good memories. The street is a place full of memories and emotions, and through the image of wind, it conveys the nostalgia for the past and the expectation for the future.

Of course, the most refreshing thing about this piece is the combination of erhu and piano.

The heavy sadness of the erhu and the romance of the piano are intertwined, just like the whispers of a pair of lovers, expressing their love for each other. But the tones of the two instruments will never overlap, symbolizing two lovers who can never be together.

As a performer, Zhou Shihe seemed to have personally experienced the story and love contained in this piece of music. The scenes of skiing in Northeast China and living together in Beijing emerged in her mind unconsciously. When she finished playing the whole piece, she sat quietly in front of the piano, staring down at the black and white keys in a daze.

The song "The Street Where the Wind Lives" had a huge impact on her soul, even greater than when they kissed while skiing and when she heard him calling her name in her dream. As a person who understands music, she knows the connotation and charm of this song better than anyone else.

After the song ended, the sound lingered in the room for a long time before Yu Shuheng slowly opened her eyes and said, "Great, this song is quite suitable for the two of you."

Zhou Shihe, who had just woken up from his musical world after being silenced by Teacher Yu, smiled knowingly. After a quick glance at Li Heng, he stood up and left the piano room, went to the washroom, turned on the faucet, bent down, scooped up a handful of clean water with both hands and splashed it on his face.

After scooping up a handful of water, she paused, then scooped up another handful, and another handful.

After drinking three handfuls of water, Zhou Shihe slowly raised her head and looked at her charming self in the mirror on the wall. After a while, her clever little mouth pouted slightly, more tightly than ever.

After spending half a day playing the nine pieces one by one, Yu Shuheng said with emotion: "These pieces have the potential to become world classics.

But the teacher likes "The Mark of Rain", "With Orchids" and "Hexi Corridor" the most. It is a great honor for me to see these three masterpieces at my age."

Zhou Shihe deeply agreed, but she was rather reserved and did not show it on her face.

Yu Shuheng asked him: "Are you really going to release an album?"

Hearing this, Zhou Shihe and Mai Sui turned their heads to look at him.

Li Heng nodded, "Go!"

He then added: "And the sooner the better, preferably before September."

Yu Shuheng frowned, "Before September? It's a bit urgent. Good things need to be polished slowly. Arranging so many songs is a huge project."

Li Heng said: "I understand what the teacher said, but these songs are useful to me."

Yu Shuheng was puzzled.

Zhou Shihe and Mai Sui were equally puzzled.

Seeing this, Li Heng had to briefly explain the creation of the new brand "Li-heng" and Anta to the three girls.

Yu Shuheng was very keen on business and immediately saw through his thoughts: "Are you planning to break into the high-end market as a musician or writer?"

Li Heng made no secret of his ambition: "Yes."

Zhou Shihe looked at him and said nothing.

Mai Sui couldn't help but ask, "Where is the shoe factory?"

Li Heng said: "In Pudong, my cousin Li Wang is taking care of it."

Yu Shuheng had seen Li Wang before. After filtering this woman in her mind, she tilted her head and asked Zhou Shihe:
"Shihe, if the album is released in September, you may have to spend your summer vacation in Shanghai."

The shock Li Heng brought to her today was great enough that Zhou Shihe, full of admiration, said yes without any hesitation and with a faint smile.

Seeing Zhou Shihe agreed, Yu Shuheng put down his arms, stood up and said, "Teacher, I will arrange the recording of the album right away. Starting tomorrow, Shihe and I will work together to compose the music for these tracks."

Zhou Shihe agreed.

Finally, Yu Shuheng said to Li Heng: "Come with me."

Li Heng handed the erhu to Mai Sui, turned around and followed him out.

He left Building 27 and entered the first floor of Building 25. As soon as the door was closed, Yu Shuheng in front of him stood there with her back to him for a long time without moving.

After waiting for about two minutes, Li Heng broke the deadlock and asked, "Teacher, what's the matter?"

Yu Shuheng quietly turned over, looked into his eyes closely, and said with her red lips: "I want to resign."

Her voice was not loud and her speech was slow, but it was inquiring.

Li Heng's heart trembled. He had just laughed it off a few days ago, but today he knew he couldn't do that anymore.

Under her dark eyes, he asked, "After you resign, what do you want to do?"

Yu Shuheng rolled her eyes and said meaningfully, "Come and hug me, and I'll tell you."

Li Heng: “.”

After a long standoff, the defeated Li Heng walked over and put his hands on her waist. After taking two deep breaths, he exerted a little force, brought her over, half hugged her and said:

"Teacher, it's not worth it."

Yu Shuheng, dressed in all black, could almost look him in the eye without looking up. Her eyes curved into a rare double eyelid, "Are you scared?"

"Afraid!" Li Heng spoke from the heart without any hypocrisy.

Yu Shuheng raised the corner of her mouth, forming a nice arc, and then, before he was prepared, she gave him a light kiss on the cheek, then decisively left his arms and walked gracefully to the second floor, saying as she walked, "Little boy, the teacher is just teasing you."

Li Heng: "..."

Ps: Update first and then modify.
