Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

"How about... you start by forming a choir and practicing?"

"Once he's done with his work, I'll definitely ask him to come and help me as soon as possible!"

Li Chaoyang immediately understood that his previous assumptions were correct.

This great artist "brother-in-law," whom I've never met, is probably afraid that he won't be able to write a song of the same caliber as his previous one, "We Are Walking on the Road"!

So, without thinking, he handed over the sheet music he had already written.

"Big sister, I didn't come to you today to urge you about this matter."

"Didn't you ask me yesterday if I had finished writing the song?"

“I went back last night and thought about it for a while. I wrote out the score and will show it to you.”

"You are a professional who comes from a performing arts troupe, so please take a look and see if there are any problems."

Li Xia didn't say anything, but her eyes lit up after a quick glance at the sheet music.

As a result, I couldn't help but start humming along to the tune...

Hmm... this rhythm is actually quite good...

As Li Xia hummed along, she put down the sheet music and asked, "Chaoyang, your piece is really good."

"But...where are the words?"

"You should know that in this music, the lyrics come before the melody."

"No matter how good the melody of a song is, it's all for nothing if there aren't good lyrics!"

"You're not going to tell me you haven't come up with these lyrics yet, are you?"

Although Li Xia smiled on the surface, she was already feeling somewhat embarrassed inside.

Two days ago, as soon as her husband came back, she told him about asking him to help train the choir at the steel rolling mill.

But to her utter surprise, her husband, who considered himself an artist, actually had some doubts about Li Chaoyang.

They believe that the song "We Are Walking on the Road" was just a spontaneous burst of inspiration that Li Chaoyang wrote.

Although the song was very good, he felt that the next song might not be as good.

And it was written hastily, like taking an exam... so it's probably not very good.

But just looking at the melody of 5.8, it's clear that the song Li Chaoyang is preparing is definitely not bad!

While it may not be as good as "We Are Walking on the Road," it's at least on par with it!

When Li Chaoyang saw that Sister Li's eyes lit up after reading the score, he knew in his heart that there must be a chance now!

After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "Big sister, I actually already have some initial ideas for the lyrics."

"We can refine it later." He paused, his smile fading as he spoke with a serious expression.

"But sister, once I finish writing the lyrics, if you want to see the complete lyrics and music..."

"Then you'll have to do what you promised me first."

"Look, I've been coming here several times a day these past few days because of this."

"But my brother-in-law, the great artist, is still nowhere to be found..."

"Could it be that, eldest sister... you don't have much say at home?"

Seeing that Li Chaoyang was actually joking with her, Li Xia immediately thought of what her husband had said last night, and felt even more embarrassed. She retorted angrily, "Get lost! Who said that!"

“In our family, I’m the one who makes the decisions. I didn’t know that women are now considered to hold up half the sky?”

"That's right, that's right!" Li Chaoyang looked at Sister Li, who suddenly put on a stern face, with a mix of amusement and exasperation.

"But sister, since you say women can hold up the sky, then you have to keep your word..."

"It's a deal, it's a deal, it's definitely a deal, okay!" Sister Li rolled her eyes at him and said, "I don't know who said they came to see me not because of this, but then they turned around and started acting like a debt collector again!"

"If I had known you were this annoying, I wouldn't have agreed to help you with this!"

"Sigh... I'm starting to regret it." Li Xia said, even feigning a sigh...

However, his gaze returned to the sheet music in his hand...

Seeing Sister Li, who usually loves to laugh, put on such a bitter and resentful look.

Li Chaoyang's expression turned somewhat strange.

To be honest... although Sister Li came from a performing arts troupe, she is clearly not suited for acting.

This acting is absolutely terrible...

However, Li Chaoyang naturally wouldn't point this out. He raised his hand to look at his watch and said, "Then let's leave it at that for now, sister. I still have to go to the publicity department to arrange work later."

"I'll leave the sheet music with you for now. Please take a look at it when you have time."

"If there's anything wrong, please don't hesitate to point it out..."

"Hmm... I wouldn't presume to offer guidance, but I'll definitely study it carefully." Li Xia, her eyes glued to the sheet music, casually waved her hand. "Chaoyang, if you have something to do, then go ahead and take care of it..."

"I'll ask your brother-in-law to help with this as soon as possible, don't worry."

"Alright, then you'd better hurry up with this, sister. I'm waiting for my brother-in-law's professional guidance!" Seeing that his sister-in-law was not making excuses but affirming this time, Li Chaoyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, forming a choir and organizing training are things that...

You really can't do it without professional guidance!

Although Sister Li also came from a performing arts troupe, she was already busy enough working in the personnel department.

I only have a little time to go over and give some pointers before I leave work in the afternoon.

So he really needs this "brother-in-law" he's never met before to come and help him!

As he spoke, Li Chaoyang saw that Sister Li was humming a tune softly again without saying a word, so he opened the door and left.

But as soon as I came out of the office, I saw Xiao Song standing in the hallway...

Moreover, as soon as the girl saw Li Chaoyang come out, she immediately came over and said with a sweet smile, "Section Chief Li..."

"What...?" Li Chaoyang felt a headache coming on whenever he saw her... He knew exactly what this girl was here for!

That's exactly why he wanted to get into the choir through connections!

Here's the thing.

The choir's registration notice was posted a few days ago.

This girl was almost the first one to come and sign up.

However, during the selection process, Li Chaoyang discovered that Xiao Song was completely unsuitable...

But it's not that she's not suited to singing, it's just... how should I put it...

This girl usually speaks fine, but when she starts singing, she has a naturally childlike voice...

It does sound nice, and it's also very crisp and melodious.

But this time the choir is going to sing "We Workers Have Strength"...

If it were something like "Singing for the Motherland," maybe she could be the lead singer or something.

To have a child's voice mixed into this workers' song is just plain ridiculous...

So, Li Chaoyang eliminated her without hesitation!

Well, this time I've really messed up.

This girl has been pestering me almost every spare moment these past few days...

They insisted on participating in the chorus... looking like they wouldn't give up until they achieved their goal.

This really annoyed Li Chaoyang, and now he gets a headache whenever he sees her!

Seeing the girl putting on a pitiful look again, Li Chaoyang turned and left.

Seeing that she followed him again, just like the previous two days, he rubbed his temples as he walked and said.

"Xiao Song, I've already told you everything."

"Your voice is really not suitable for the songs we're performing in this show."

"Okay, next time, I'll write a song that's suitable for you to sing."

"How about we let you participate again?"

Little Song, however, was as determined as a rock. Her miserable little face immediately brightened, and she said, "No, Section Chief Li... I must participate in this arts performance!"

"No, I've already told you you're not suitable, why are you still insisting?"

Li Chaoyang stopped and looked at Xiao Song with a helpless expression.

"Section Chief Li." Seeing Li Chaoyang looking over, the girl lowered her head, putting on a pitiful expression. "If I can't participate this time, next time...next time I won't have the chance to participate..."

"Why?" Li Chaoyang asked, puzzled. "Why do you feel like there won't be another chance?"

"I already said that once I write a song that suits you, I will definitely let you participate!"

"Why are you so fixated on this? Are you planning to be transferred after National Day, Xiao Song?"
