Yanzi Valley of Jingcheng

Chapter 200 Don't Understand Pop Songs

When the doorbell rang, Guan Sha really thought that hope had come, and a miracle happened. Someone saw the rental notice she posted and took the initiative to contact her. But when Shen Li opened the door, Guan Sha saw that the person standing outside the door was The upturned corners of the familiar Aunt Xiao's mouth stiffened.

Aunt Xiao was holding a large bag of fruit in her hand, shaking it, "Here you go!"

"Auntie, you are too polite!" Shen Li said, Guan Sha also stood up and came to pick up the fruit at this time, "Auntie, you don't have to be so polite in the future, and even ran all the way..."

"You're welcome! The script kills you and always invites me!" Aunt Xiao noticed tears on Guan Sha's face, but she didn't mention it.

"Come in, sit in, come in..." Guan Sha straightly pulled up the chair for Aunt Xiao, and Xiao Qianxing was not polite. When she came in, she began to look up and down the house, looked through the master bedroom, the second bedroom, the toilet and the kitchen, and concluded with one sentence, "Look. After paying so much, your room is still the best, you don't have to choose the orientation, floor, layout..."

"I rented it too..." Guan Sha emphasized.

"This type of apartment is easy to rent, you can rent it casually...it's more difficult for me." Aunt Xiao sat down as she spoke, and took a sip of the water Shen Li poured for her.

"Auntie, do you have a house to rent?" Shen Li also sat down and asked. She didn't know Xiao Qianxing that well. Shen Li would also say hello to Xiao Qianxing when they met each other occasionally.

"No, no, Auntie doesn't have a house to rent, she..." Guan Sha just wanted to tell Shen Li that Xiao Qianxing also lived in a relative's house, but Xiao Qianxing suddenly said, "Why not? I bought a house!"

"Ah?!" Guan Sha heard an O-shaped mouth.

"My little sister, that is, the eldest... er, Xiao Jie's third aunt, who directly transferred a set to me."

"Ah?!" Guan Sha opened her mouth even wider, "Didn't I analyze it with you..."

"Yes, you told me that it may be difficult to sell second-hand houses in the future, but I live by myself and have no plans to sell, and didn't you give me a set of textbooks before? I have studied it carefully, and it said that if It’s just a need, absolutely a need, so you must buy it as soon as possible before the policy is tightened, am I obedient?” Xiao Qianxing smiled sweetly.

"But..." Guan Sha bit her lips. She was afraid that she would lead Xiao Qianxing into a ditch before, so when she wanted to understand the future development trend of the real estate market, she immediately told Xiao Qianxing the pros and cons of buying a house. She thought Xiao Qianxing From then on, like Xiao Jie, he will never buy a house in Qingyang, unexpectedly...

"How much is it?" Shen Li asked gossipingly.

"More than 400 square meters, only 65 square meters, two rooms, the one I live in now."

沈俪掐指一算，400多万这个价格绝对是亲情价了，按照目前雁子谷8.5万左右的均价, 65平的房子怎么也要550多万, 而且400多万的房子首付也得100多万，这对沈俪而言是个巨大的数字。

Xiao Qianxing seemed to have seen Shen Li's thoughts, and further explained, "I sold the house and car in my hometown, and with the savings from these years, I barely made up a down payment. Besides, the price my little sister gave me was not worth it. Expensive, she has three houses, isn't she afraid of property taxes in the future, and her daughter is Xiao Jie's cousin, Xiao Ran, who keeps saying that she is going to study abroad in university, so I am so worried about my little sister, so I just sell one of them for money to prepare for a rainy day."

Guan Sha originally wanted to say that Xiao Qianxing was too hasty to buy a house in 2020 when the house price in Qingyang was soaring, but when he heard that he picked up a big deal, he just needed it and at the same time helped his relatives, Also no longer say anything.

"Me, I can afford the down payment now, but the mortgage...is a little tight..." Xiao Qianxing showed embarrassment, and his eyes glanced at Guan Sha from time to time, "After buying the house, I will almost have no money. Drinking milk tea..."

When Guan Sha heard Xiao Qianxing's words, she immediately cheered up, "Auntie, you can rent it to me! For long-term rent, I will take care of it for you and rent it out together. Don't you have two rooms? Renting out one room can relieve the pain. There is a lot of mortgage pressure, but I don’t know if you would like to share the rent with someone?”

"I don't mind, as long as they are young people, even the hall can be used as a compartment to rent out together. Anyway, I have the final say on my house."

Hearing what Xiao Qianxing said, Shen Li finally admitted that Xiao Qianxing's thinking was really avant-garde.

It is generally impossible for post-60s like Xiao Qianxing to buy a house in a big city on their own at the age of retirement. Even if they buy a house, it is difficult to accept sharing with strangers, and they specifically emphasize that they are sharing with young people.

"It's just that my room faces northwest, and the floor is relatively low, so it may not be easy to rent." Xiao Qianxing smiled a little embarrassedly.

"It's all right, as long as you are willing to rent it to me, I'll figure out a way!" Guan Sha was very excited. If Xiao Qianxing really rented it to herself in the end, this would be the first house that Guan Sha has obtained since she persisted for so long .

"Okay! Then I will rent it to you. I want a long-term lease, preferably a long-term lease. My mortgage will last for decades." Xiao Qianxing said.

"I'm so happy, so happy!" Guan Sha immediately jumped up, holding Xiao Qianxing in her arms and kissing wildly. She said that she would invite Xiao Qianxing to play script killing, but Xiao Qianxing said that she didn't want to play script killing today, but wanted to go downstairs KTV private room karaoke, Guan Sha immediately dragged Xiao Qianxing down without saying a word.

As a result, the two entered the KTV private room, and before Xiao Qianxing sang a few songs, Guan Sha felt embarrassed because she felt that she was too old-fashioned.

Guan Sha swears that she has heard all of Xiao Qianxingdian's songs and is very familiar with them, but except for the chorus, the beginning and the end, she can't sing them all.

"I want to be your sun, your sun, in your heart, in your heart, no matter how far away, don't be afraid of me being by your side..."

Xiao Qianxing sang with a sunny face, and Guan Sha knew that this song was Qiu Zhenzhe's "The Sun". She could sing some, but when you asked her to search for Qiu Zhenzhe like Xiao Qianxing did, Guan Sha said that she couldn't do 1.

Who is Qiu Zhenzhe?
Which era of singer?
"This song is from 2017, and there is another song from 17 that is also very good." Xiao Qianxing ordered another song while talking to Guan Sha. The song section appears:
how could you fall in love with her

and decided to go home with her

I gave up everything I have, it doesn't matter

Paper is short and love is long

I can't tell you when I was young

My story is still about you
……

Guan Sha suddenly realized, oh...so it was "that song"!

This song is called "Paper Short Love". Although Guan Sha knew the name from the beginning, she also had the concept of "that song" in her mind. , but a general term for songs that are unknown.

Aunt Xiao sang many "that song" in front of Guan Sha.

For example, Zhang Zihao's "Is it possible":
Is it possible
to be with you

Between us
have too many memories

in love with you
没 什么 道理

I just happened to meet you at the beginning of love

For example, Tiger II's "Not Just Likes":
you know i love you
not just like
you don't see
the answer i want
It's driving me crazy like this

Guan Sha was surprised that Xiao Qianxing didn't just sing a climax for these songs, she could basically sing from the beginning to the end, and the tone and rhythm were all on point. Xiao Qianxing looked at Guan Sha at the end of singing, and said, "No I'm sorry that Auntie is out of date, these songs may be a bit old for you, but this song will definitely not be old!"

So Guan Sha saw her input the words "Birds and Cicadas" directly into the machine. There were a thousand question marks in Guan Sha's mind, thinking what kind of song is this?

As a result, even the machine was embarrassed this time, because the screen displayed "no search results".

"This machine's database is really old. This song was released several months ago! It's been at least three months!" Xiao Qianxing muttered and turned on the phone's karaoke software to search for songs.

The reason why Xiao Qianxing can keep up with the trend of the times is because she has just retired. Before retirement, she was a middle school teacher, and she was with a group of trendy children every day, and she was fascinated by it.

Guan Sha, whose song library in her head was being hanged by Xiao Qianxing, smiled awkwardly, "It's okay, auntie, I don't have to listen to new songs."

"But this song is very good, you will definitely sing it!" Xiao Qianxing insisted on playing the original song on her mobile phone. Guan Sha really hadn't heard the whole song this time, but she still had the courage to sing along with Xiao Qianxing. Knows the tune, but she can read the lyrics, she lied to Xiao Qianxing that she sang every song in the same tune since she was a child.

As a post-95 generation, Guan Sha thinks that instead of admitting that she does not understand pop songs like the old aunts born in the 60s, it is better to admit that she is tone deaf.

Throughout the night, Xiao Qianxing sang as if he had been spat with chicken blood without even drinking a drop of water, unlike Guan Sha, who drank three bottles of mineral water.

"Oh yes! I remembered that there is another song that must be sung!" After Xiao Qianxing finished speaking, he began to type on the screen.

Guan Sha's face was full of despair, so far she finally found a social activity that was even more exhausting than script killing meetings, and this activity was: karaoke with Xiao Qianxing.

At this time, the three-character song title was displayed on the screen: "The Wind Rises"

"You must know how to sing this song! It's very famous!" Xiao Qianxing said.

"Auntie, I really don't know this song." Guan Sha couldn't pretend anymore, so she had to do it.

"It's okay, I'll teach you if you don't know how to sing. No one is born who can't sing. If there is, then it's because you haven't repeated enough! Come, come, come..." Xiao Qianxing played the original song in front of Guan Sha. Sing.

"Let's learn the climax part first." Xiao Qianxing sang it first by himself, teaching Guan Sha one by one. Guan Sha, who was actually good at singing, naturally learned it very quickly.

"Look! I told you that you can sing!" Xiao Qianxing was very excited, so he clicked the replay button and sang the opening scene by himself. At the climax of the chorus, he stopped to signal Guan Sha to sing. Guan Sha staggered and finished singing. Xiao Qianxing applauded again until the second melody of the whole song began to repeat.

Gradually, Guan Sha began to pay attention to the content of the lyrics instead of the tone of voice.

Knowing this world for the first time

hang around
looking at the sky
Also willing to go through fire and water to walk it again

……

I used to be overwhelmed by the size of the world
also indulged in dream talk
not true or false
don't struggle
not afraid of jokes
……

Before the sound of music in the private room completely stopped, Xiao Qianxing immediately clicked to re-sing, Guan Sha did not speak, she followed the melody and sang again with Xiao Qianxing.

Knowing this world for the first time

hang around
looking at the sky
Also willing to go through fire and water to walk it again

……

After singing here, Guan Sha seemed to understand something.
