Start with a pop song

Chapter 112 The old man's status in the world
November twenty-third.

Sunday.

In the girls' dormitory at Washington State University.

Xiao Yixiuan was lying lazily on her upper bunk bed, talking on the phone home.

As an only child, although her family conditions were quite ordinary, she had never suffered any hardship since she was a child.

Also very popular.

Especially during the years when my aunt and uncle were alive.

The winter and summer vacations and the Spring Festival are her happiest times every year.

Because every time her aunt and uncle saw her, they would give her a big red envelope.

She was still young at that time and was spoiled to the point of being a little willful.

I am angry at that cousin who often takes advantage of his favor and becomes arrogant.

She feels very happy every time she makes the other person so angry that he or she is speechless.

Later, when she grew up and became sensible, she no longer provoked her closest brother for no reason like she did when she was a child.

But it offended Song Dao even more.

The reason is simple, she doesn't like Miao Xiu.

For this reason, he spoke ill of Miao Xiu in front of Song Dao more than once.

Song almost blocked her several times.

Later, my aunt and uncle had an accident, my cousin had a knot in his heart, and went to college, so we interacted less and less.

The next time she heard news about Song Dao, it was about the graduation party of the Central Conservatory of Music that had become a hot topic.

I never thought that my cousin who was a bootlicker would be the protagonist of that hot search?
What made her happy was that she finally broke up with that woman!

From then on, my cousin seemed to have suddenly got the script of playing the leading role.

First, he released two "dog-licking songs" that were quite influential on the Internet, and then he started to appear on shows with the queen.

The singer-songwriter never misses an episode.

When Xiao Yixiuan saw Lin Fei, a queen with a cool temperament and strong aura, sitting quietly beside her cousin like a little fan girl and watching him write songs, she had a very strong sense of fantasy.

After that, Song Dao became popular all the way to today with this unconventional music variety show written by a singer-songwriter.

He wrote one classic song after another.

To be honest, she still couldn't believe that her cousin was so talented.

But the facts are before us.

As a younger sister, she was only happy.

Even if we know that what is presented in the show is often just a show effect.

But I still hope that one day Song can bring the queen home to celebrate the New Year.

That scene makes me happy just thinking about it.

The incident a few days ago scared her.

I didn't even dare tell my family.

However, that incident caused too much of a stir, and his parents had been paying attention to Song Dao's movements, and they often showed off to people around them.

So her mother called on the day of the accident.

She was almost scared to tears, and her father was also very anxious.

I didn’t dare to contact Song Dao for fear of causing trouble.

But at that time, Xiao Yixiuan could do nothing except mobilizing her roommates to help her speak for Song Dao online.

Although she knew that it would be meaningless for them to go on the Internet without eating, drinking or sleeping to fight with others.

But she did it anyway.

Because he is her brother, her closest relative besides her parents. Who else can she help if not Song Dao?

Because of this, I almost broke up with a roommate who I usually got along well with.

Because the other party believed the revelations on the Internet.

"Xuanxuan, don't be silly. Even if he is your brother, his reputation has completely collapsed now. He has become a wanted criminal. How can the authorities make mistakes? And your cousin is actually a scumbag. That's right. He is so handsome, how could he be a bootlicker..."

Blah blah, said a lot to Xiao Yixiuan.

Xiao Yixiuan, who had never uttered a swear word except to annoy Song Dao since she was a child, was driven crazy by the rage.

The four-word mantra is just what you say.

"Go away and shut up! My brother is not that kind of person!"

When the other party saw that she was angry, he didn't fight with her. He just sneered and walked out.

Xiao Yixiuan was so angry that she cried.

A few hours later.

It was already dawn at twelve o'clock noon that day!

When Xiao Yixiuan saw the notice from Ping'an Capital, she burst into tears on the spot.

Then I called home and told them about it while crying.

At that moment, she felt only pride and relief.

My brother is not that kind of person!
All those who slander him and frame him deserve to go to jail!
One p.m.

The roommate who had quarreled with her brought back a lot of expensive fruits from outside and gave them to her as an apology.

Xiao Yixiuan accepted the other party's apology and also expressed her apology for cursing in anger.

But both sides knew that the relationship had broken down.

The other party apologized only because Song Dao was so awesome!

The fact that this situation can be reversed is enough to show that they are really fine and really capable.

I don’t want to completely lose a roommate who has a big star brother.

Xiao Yixuan apologized because: My brother won! I won't argue with you!

At this moment, she was lying happily on the bed, talking on the phone with her mother.

"Why don't you tell him yourself? You're his aunt, what are you afraid of?"

"Oh, okay, okay, I'll send him a message to ask, but he may not have time right now."

"Okay, I'll tell him to be careful."

After hanging up the phone, a few little heads suddenly popped out from the curtains on the other beds.

"Wow, a big star is going to your house for the New Year?"

"Great, can you please get a few autographs for us?"

"Can you take some more photos of his daily life? I'm useful!"

"Xuanxuan..."

"Xuanbao..."

Xiao Yixuan was speechless. She pulled open the curtain, looked at the sisters and said, "I have to ask..."

Then he typed it out and sent it to Song Dao.

After a moment, she smacked her lips and said, "She said she couldn't leave during the New Year."

A sigh was heard in the dormitory.

Someone suddenly said, "Can't leave? Are you going to be on the Spring Festival Gala?"

Xiao Yixiuan was slightly stunned.

Others also said: "Yes, apart from performing on the Spring Festival Gala, what other reasons are there for not being able to leave during the Chinese New Year?"

"That must be the case, Brother Gou... uh, Brother Song Dao is so popular now, it's normal for him to be on the Spring Festival Gala, right?"

Just then, Xiao Yixiuan received another message.

Song Dao: There is a talk show at 9:30 tonight, which will be broadcast on Xia TV Channel 1. You can ask your uncle, aunt, grandparents to watch it when they are free.

Xiao Yixiuan's face suddenly showed surprise.

"My brother is going to be on the Xia TV talk show tonight at 9:30!" There was a sudden burst of shouting in the dormitory.

Someone said: "Isn't that 'opposite'? Your brother can actually be on this talk show? Amazing!"

"Yes, yes, yes. I've seen very few celebrities on that show. They're basically Olympic champions and bigwigs from various industries."

"Your brother... No, our brother is so awesome!"

Xiao Yixuan snorted: "Of course, don't you care whose brother he is?"

Then she quickly called her mother and told her about it.

Although they felt a little disappointed that Song Dao could not "go home" for the New Year, they were immediately excited when they heard that their nephew could be on such a high-end talk show.

"That's great! I'm going to tell your grandparents right now, they're going to be so excited!"

"We have a big star in our family too!"

……

Li Jun's studio.

This is a single-family villa located in an industrial park.

Although it is called a studio, it can actually be used as a residence.

The old couple are busy in the yard at this moment.

Yan Yu took the initiative to go over and help, and assisted Zhong Yutong.

Song Dao suggested asking someone to do it, but the old man firmly refused.

"Why hire someone for such a small matter? You just wait. Yan Yu, don't bother too much. It's a bit cold outside. Come inside. We are professionals in roasting lamb!"

After replying Xiao Yixiuan, Song Dao stood aside and watched the fun.

He let the original owner's uncle, aunt, grandparents watch this show not because he wanted to show off.

But in this interview, he "disclosed" a lot of information.

There are topics such as family, love, and creation.

Let them take a look and they may feel more at ease.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Yin Hong and Zhou Qian came over together.

It’s normal for Yin Hong to come, today is Sunday.

Song Dao was somewhat surprised that Zhou Qian could come.

As the chief director, she hardly has any days off on weekends and is under a lot of pressure.

He went up to greet him.

Introduce Yan Yu and Zhong Yutong to these two.

Zhou Qian was very friendly. After saying hello, she went straight to the old couple Li Jun who were busy there.

"Teacher, Mistress!"

"Xixi is here. You, Xiaosong, and Yin Hong should all come inside. It's a bit cold outside. Yin Hong, the kitchen has prepared the ingredients, just waiting for you!"

The old man was not polite at all to his students.

Are you all at the top level?
Stop it, Yin Hong is very well behaved in front of the old man.

This kind of scene, which outsiders can never see, is precisely the true reflection of the old man's status in the world.

Just like the saying goes - if you don't come into my door, you see me like a frog in a well seeing the moon in the sky; if you come into my door, you will see me like an ant seeing the blue sky!

"Haha, okay, I'll show you my skills today!"

Yin Hong rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the villa with a smile.

Li Jun's wife complained: "It's just a few side dishes. I'll make them later. They are guests..."

The old man glared and said, "What guest? Ask him if he is willing to be a guest here?"

Yin Hong walked to the door and laughed: "Master's wife, please don't be polite to me. Didn't I cook every time back then?"

Zhou Qian: "Yes, Yin Hong's cooking is delicious! Let him cook!"

The old lady smiled, looked at Song Dao and said, "Now the conditions are better, either gas or electricity, we used to cook with firewood, Yin Hong is strong, he is very good at chopping firewood!"

Zhou Qian pulled up a chair and sat there chatting with the old couple, not caring about the cold weather.

Song Dao gave Zhong Yutong a look, and the little girl quickly went into the house and took out a cushion.

Zhou Qian thanked him with a smile, then glanced at Song Dao.

A true master always keeps his eyes and ears open.

It was already past five o'clock when Chu Peining arrived.

As soon as he entered the yard, he apologized repeatedly.

"I'm sorry, I was delayed by something. I should have come earlier."

Li Jun said with a smile: "You came just in time!"

Chu Peining first held Yan Yu's hand and chatted for a few words, and then talked about the song with Song Dao.

The old man already knew about this, but he didn't know what song it was.

Let Chu Peining sing a few lines on the spot.

Chu Peining glanced around and shook her head: "Let's go inside and sing later. It's easy for people to record us if we sing here."

Li Jun was stunned for a moment: "Soprano?"

Chu Peining looked proud: "Soprano, folk song!"

The old man looked at Song Dao and said, "Boy, is there anything you are not good at?"

Song Dao said modestly: "I don't know how to roast lamb."

Everyone laughed.

The old man said, "Don't worry, I've called Xiao Qin over, he should be here soon."

Chu Peining asked, "Qin Lang?"

Li Jun nodded: "Yeah, I haven't seen him for a long time. I asked him for help a few days ago. It's a good opportunity for us to get together."

Chu Peining smiled and nodded: "I haven't seen him for a long time."

Zhou Qian laughed and said, "I called him a while ago and invited him to the Spring Festival Gala, but I turned him down."

Chu Peining said: "He is as pretentious as I am. No, he is even more pretentious than me. He can't produce any good songs..."

At this time, a loud and powerful voice came from the door: "Who is saying bad things about me here?"

Along with the voice, a middle-aged man who was not tall but very tall walked in.

Chu Peining rolled her eyes at him: "I said you are being hypocritical, what's wrong?"

Qin Lang smiled and said, "We both know each other."

Then he saw Song Dao and took the initiative to walk up to him and extended his hand: "Song Dao, right? I like your song "Little Grass", it's well written! Camel Bell is also good! Teacher Li praised you and said that you are the best among the young people. I refuted it on the spot! I said that he is the best in the Xiayu music scene, what young people? Which young people can compare with him?"

Song Dao looked at this cheerful senior and had some impression of him in his mind.

He seems to be a very famous baritone singer in Xia State.

baritone……

There was a slight movement in his heart.

He stepped forward and shook hands with Qin Lang: "Teacher Qin, you are too kind."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "I'm not exaggerating. It's a blessing for the music industry that young people have this kind of creative ability."

The old man, wearing thick gloves, walked over and threw one to Qin Lang.

"Stop flattering the young man and come and carry the sheep down with me."

Song Dao hurriedly said, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

Qin Lang took it first: "No, your hands are precious, not cheaper than those of pianists. Leave it to me, we are all professionals in this field!"

Zhou Qian laughed and said, "Let them come. Brother, you don't know that the legendary musicians and famous baritone singers are just side jobs. The main job is eating, drinking and having fun!"

As Qin Lang and the old man carried the roasted lamb to the large tray on the table, he said with a smile: "Director Zhou, you are insulting me. Teacher Li and I are clearly fishing!"

Song Dao, Yan Yu, Zhong Yutong and other younger generations were all confused.

So this guy is also a fisherman?
