The Great Wei Music Bureau

After waking up, Li Yi had no idea what to do and could only continue to teach Sun Fei. After lunch, Li Yi walked to the restaurant. He saw Miss Ye again. He really had no bad intentions towards this little Ye, nor did he want her because she was pretty. He just sympathized with her situation.

Li Yi stepped forward and saluted, saying, "I am Li Yi, nice to meet Miss Ye'er."

Little Leaf looked at the handsome scholar in front of him and asked coldly, "How do you know my name? Who sent you here? What do you want to do?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "Miss Ye'er, I passed by and saw what happened yesterday. I was in charge of accounts at Piaoxiangju over there. It happened that two officials came to have a drink that night. During the conversation, they told me about your experience. I felt very sympathetic to your situation..."

Before he could finish, Xiao Ye interrupted, "Sympathy? I want you to sympathize? Don't think I don't know what you are planning. Let me tell you, although I am a weak woman, it is still very easy for me to deal with people like you!"

As he spoke, Little Leaf pulled out a pair of scissors. Li Yi looked at the thorny cactus and knew that she had been bullied too many times and no longer believed that there were still many good people in the world. He didn't say much and smiled and bowed before leaving. Little Leaf spat and waited until Li Yi was far away before carefully taking a detour home.

Li Yi did not stay in the restaurant that afternoon. He went out to look for a way out but could not find a way out. He felt helpless and indescribably depressed. On the way back to the restaurant, he saw Xiao Ye squatting in the corner with a sad face.

Li Yi didn't think much about it and walked over to greet him and asked, "Miss, are you in any trouble? If..."

His words were interrupted again, "Why are you here again? It's none of your business. Get out!" Xiao Ye wiped his face and pulled out a pair of scissors.

Li Yi smiled again, bowed and left. Not long after he left, he turned back to look at Xiao Ye, who was staring at him as he left. Suddenly, a melody sounded in his heart. The tune was so familiar...

Li Yi hurried back to the courtyard, took the zither down from the wall, and began to play it according to his memory. It was the melody of "Hong Yan Jiu", the interlude and ending song of the TV series "Langya Bang".

He tried hard to recall, his fingertips dancing on the strings, bit by bit, section by section, he finally remembered the music score of the entire song. Yes, it was this melody!

Li Yi played this song completely, which makes people feel sad and even cry. While playing, he thought about Xiao Ye's experience and felt sad as if he had experienced the same thing. Tears fell for no apparent reason. As the strings moved, he entered a state of ecstasy.

After playing a song, he wiped his tears with his sleeve and stood up. Suddenly, he found that the wife of Manager Sun was crying like a tearful person, and Sun Fei beside him also had a sad face.

Li Yi could not hide his embarrassment and bowed, saying, "I am sorry to disturb your peace, Madam. I am ashamed and will take my leave now."

Sun Fei suddenly asked, "Mr. Li, are you leaving? Did Daddy drive you away?"

Li Yi looked at Sun Fei with a puzzled look and said, "No? Shopkeeper Sun didn't chase me away. Where did you hear that? I still have to teach Xiao Fei to read and write."

Madam Sun wiped away her tears and said, "Li Yi, it's okay. I know my husband. He is not a bad person at all. I don't want to drive you away. I just said that because I am afraid that you will cause trouble. I just want you to control your temper and not use your scholarly temper in places where it shouldn't be used.

He has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, so don't take it to heart. You play this song so sadly, how wronged have you been? Not really, not really, I'll talk to him tonight, and you can just work here without any worries!"

Sun Fei also nodded and said, "Mr. Li, I will also ask my father for help."

Li Yi bowed and said, "Thank you, ma'am, and thank you, Xiaofei. However, Li Yi does not feel wronged, nor does he think that the shopkeeper has done anything wrong. I will not trouble you two to plead for me. I have something else to do, so I will take my leave first." After saying that, Li Yi walked out of the courtyard holding the zither.

Li Yi's idea was simple. With this song, he would definitely find a soulmate. If he was lucky, he could make a living from it. Thinking of this, he suddenly complained in his heart: This, isn't it going to be the same as in the previous life? Street performers? Broadcasters? Do I need to prepare a small bowl to store change? Li Yi slapped his forehead! Why go to the street? Why not find a music store or a store selling musical instruments? They all understand music and will definitely know the goodness of this song!

With this in mind, Li Yi went to all the musical instrument shops in Qing'an City. The response was, "We are a shop that sells goods. We don't want your music. It's fine if you want to sell your piano, but if you want to sell your singing, go to the street!" Then they kicked him out.

Li Yi has been walking around for the whole afternoon and it is almost dark now. He has not eaten, has been frustrated and is exhausted. It is just like when he graduated from college and went looking for a job everywhere. He went to each music class and music classroom to ask if they were hiring or if they needed teachers, but the answer was always no. In the end, he could only submit his resume online and look for a job related to his hobbies.

Li Yi was lost. He didn't expect that he had no survival skills at all. Music, the only thing he was good at, was useless here. Suddenly, he came to the corner where Xiao Ye cried in the afternoon. He sat on the ground and put the piano on his legs.

With sadness welling up in his heart, he plucked the strings of the zither again. He was not performing on the street, but expressing his own sorrow. He felt like he had traveled through time and space, but was still sad because he was born at the wrong time. He sang as he played the zither:

"The west wind blows across the cold mountain rain at night, and my country and home are vaguely in my lingering dreams. I miss you even more when you are not around, and separation is unbearable.

When will the war end? The victors and losers will all be wiped out. The candle is already burning with tears, but the country is still young and the beauty is still the same.

I can't bear the separation, but I still can't bear it. I entrust the wild geese to fly south, and I don't know where to send my heart.

The beauty is the same, no matter how time passes, the love for you will never change.

When will the war end? The victors and losers will all be wiped out. The candle is already burning with tears, but the country is still young and the beauty is still the same.

I can't bear the separation, but I still can't bear it. I entrust the wild geese to fly south, and I don't know where to send my heart.

The beauty is old, no matter how time passes, but the love remains unchanged. "

A purple air came from nowhere, perhaps because Li Yi was too engrossed, or perhaps because it was getting dark, he did not see it. The purple air surrounded him from the moment he started singing and played the guitar, and slowly merged into his body after he finished singing.

Li Yi looked up and saw that it was getting late. He stood up and prepared to go home, but found Xiao Ye standing in front of him crying.

She cried and choked, "I don't know why, but I can't hold back my tears after listening to your music. I've suffered so much in the past two years, and have been looked down upon and suffered so many grievances, but I have never cried like I did today. Tell me, what did you do? Did you use some magic?" After saying that, she squatted on the ground and cried loudly.

Li Yi was confused now. People around kept looking over here, pointing and talking. When they saw it was Xiao Ye, they didn't gather around anymore. Everyone still remembered that Xiao Ye had dragged that honest farmer to the government office yesterday, and no one wanted to get into trouble.

The purple air attracted by Li Yi's singing and playing is his talent and infectiousness, which is generated by making others empathize with him through various means such as words, melodies, calligraphy and painting. Xiao Ye was infected by his songs and was unable to extricate herself from the sad emotion.

Li Yi watched Xiao Ye crying, but he didn't know how to comfort her, because no one else could empathize with the pain Xiao Ye suffered. You said you understood him, but that was nonsense. The pressure this little girl endured was living in fear every day. She couldn't die. If she died, what would happen to her mother?

She wanted to live, and live strong. She couldn't let those who wanted her dead see her tears, she couldn't let them see her weakness. But Li Yi's sad song brought out all the tears she had accumulated in the past two years, like a river embankment bursting and a flood rushing out.

After a long while, Xiao Ye wiped her swollen eyes with her hands, then looked at Li Yi and asked, "Who are you? What do you want to do with me?"

Li Yi bowed and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect this song would have such a big impact on Miss Ye'er. I apologize to you." Little Ye'er still had a scrutinizing expression on his face, "Who sent you here? How do you want to torture me this time?"

Li Yi said, "Miss Ye'er, you don't have to worry about Wang Hu's men anymore. Captain Chen has already taught them a lesson and told them that if they have any more bad intentions, they will be punished."

"Then were you sent by Mr. Xu, or by that bastard from the Yuwen family?"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "No matter what I say, Miss Ye'er will not let go of her hostility, I understand that. I don't expect that I can help the girl untie her knot or anything, but if there are any difficulties in the future and she really needs help from others, Miss Ye'er can come to Li Yi. Li Yi will temporarily make a living in Piaoxiangju." When he said this, Li Yi felt very depressed, as if he was not appreciated for his talent.

Xiao Ye looked at Li Yi strangely, and the latter bowed and turned away. He returned to the gate of the courtyard, which was closed. At the gate was his luggage. He understood that Manager Sun had ordered him to leave. Didn't he say that he could stay for a few more days before finding a job? Why did he just kick him out like that?

Li Yi did not knock on the door. He picked up his bag and walked towards the restaurant, wanting to see if he could spend the night there, even if he had to sleep on a bench or a table. However, the owner said that he would not be allowed to do so.

Li Yi looked around, and he didn't expect that his curiosity would lead to the current situation. Helplessly, he came to that corner again, took out a thin blanket from his bag, and curled up in the corner with his zither, his heart full of resentment. Why is the world like this? Why do I have such a situation? Why do I, as a time traveler, have no place to sleep...

The next morning, Li Yi was woken up by an official, "Hey kid, why are you sleeping here?"

Li Yi quickly stood up and saluted, saying, "Sir, I was kicked out by the shopkeeper yesterday. I have no money and no work, so I slept here."

"I see you have arms and legs, so hurry up and find something to do! If you sleep here tonight, I'll take you and throw you into jail as a refugee!"

Li Yi quickly bowed and said, "Thank you for showing mercy, sir. I'll find a job right away! I'll go right away!"

Li Yi packed up his bag, picked up his zither and rushed around, but still found nothing. The war had just ended and all industries were recovering, so there was really no place to take him in for the time being.

He was so hungry at noon that he found a pawnshop and pawned everything he had except his piano and quilt, which were actually just a few books and study treasures. He only got a total of thirty copper coins. He felt like crying but had no choice. He took the money and bought a few pancakes, ate them at the stall, and then started looking for work again.

Another afternoon passed, and he returned to Piaoxiangju tired and hungry, wondering if he could have a good talk with the shopkeeper to stop causing trouble and whether he could continue working. However, he was stopped outside the store by the waiter.

The waiter said, "Brother Li, please leave quickly. What did you do to offend the shopkeeper? Did you seduce his wife?"

Li Yi almost spat out a mouthful of blood! I seduced your sister! His wife is one generation older than me and more beautiful than me... Oh! That's all! Li Yi turned his head away, and returned to that corner in a daze. He looked at it stupidly in a daze.

I don't know how long it took, but a cold voice sounded, "Hey, are you really a nerd?"

Li Yi turned around and saw that it was Xiao Ye. He saluted and said, "Hello Miss Ye, Li Yi is a scholar."

Xiao Ye Zi said, "I have been following you quietly for the whole afternoon, and you didn't even notice?"

Li Yi shook his head, and Xiao Ye nodded, "A nerd is just a nerd. What others say is right. You scholars are useless."

Li Yi sighed, "Ah, that's right, a scholar is useless."

Xiao Ye Zi looked him up and down and asked, "I heard you play the piano well. Maybe I can help you find a job. Are you willing?"
