Chapter 43 The Arrival of the Second Aunt
Chapter 43: The Arrival of the Second Aunt
Wang Xu parked his motorcycle and planned to go up to ask about the situation. The people who blocked the door were usually specially recruited, and there have been ones before. Dong Si Wang Er is still somewhat famous, but he has never seen the couple come together.

Both of them also stood up.The man is quite tall, estimated to be about 1.8 meters tall. He looks quite handsome and clean-shaven. It's just that the sweat dripping from his forehead on this hot day makes him look a little bit embarrassed.

An old military uniform, the color has faded after washing, there is some plaster on the trousers, but everything else looks clean.A pair of Jiefang rubber shoes, it looks like it has been worn for a long time, but it is still clean.

The woman is not short in stature, about 165, with short hair around her ears, a clear face, delicate features, and a happy smile on her face. Only slight wrinkles at the corners of her eyes tell her age.

The woman is wearing a floral short-sleeved shirt, a pair of gray trousers underneath, and a pair of simple and elegant floral cloth shoes, just like a character who walked out of a portrait in the 70s.

"Who are you two?" Wang Xu walked over and asked.

"We are here to find someone. May I ask if Tang Yun lives here? The address she gave me is here." The man spoke politely, speaking Mandarin with a Qin Chuan accent, which was a little hard to understand.

"Tang Yun? Are you her second aunt? Second uncle?" Wang Xu was surprised. He almost forgot about these two people. He had already said that he would come, so why did it take so long.

"Yes, yes, it's us," the woman nodded hurriedly.

"Then let's go into the room. She's still at work. I'll inform her later and ask her to come over after work. Have you eaten yet?" Wang Xu greeted the two of them into the small courtyard and took them to the place where Tang Yun lived. Tang Yun hasn't come back for many days, and this hut has not been cleaned, and there is some dust.

"Tang Yun usually lives here. It's just that the shop has been very busy recently. She hasn't come back and has been watching in the shop, so it's a little dusty. She usually cleans it up very well." Wang Xu found a rag to wipe the table, While explaining.

"Understood. We know that girl. She has been good at taking care of people since she was a child. Let me clean it up. Men can't do this." The second aunt naturally took the rag from Wang Xu's hand and started tidying it up. Xu didn't know when the rag would be gone.

The mandarin of this second aunt also has an accent, but surprisingly, it is not Qin Chuan's accent, why does it feel a bit like Wu Nong's soft language.

Wang Xu saw that the work in his hand was gone, so he pulled a stool and went to the small courtyard with his second uncle, handed him a cigarette, and smoked while chatting.

After carefully inquiring about the itineraries of these two, Wang Xu finally understood why these two came so late.

Because these two actually carried the burden all the way to the imperial capital.

At that time, the two went to a certain place in northern Hebei, but they caught up with the railway and were washed away by the flood. They either waited for the bridge to be repaired there, or got off the train and walked to the location of the next station. The ticket money would be refunded to them in full.

After the two discussed it, they felt that Emperor Li was not far away, so they just walked over and left without doing anything.These two have experience in carrying burdens and walking around the streets. They usually sell some needles and threads, help people mend, embroider and make things.

When they came out, all kinds of guys brought everything with them, so they took the courage to walk all the way, yelling all the way to the imperial capital.

Back and forth, I walked for almost ten days.

Good guy, Wang Xu called him a good guy.These two can really save tens of dollars and walk hundreds of kilometers.

Well, there are quite a few people in this era who can travel hundreds of kilometers for dozens of dollars.Wang Xu suddenly felt that he was making money too fast recently, and he seemed to have forgotten this era. No money, no money, and saving money is the mainstream.

Or how can someone who spends money recklessly like Zou Xun be called a rebel? Fortunately, she spent all she earned, otherwise she would probably be criticized badly.

After Wang Xu settled the second aunt and his wife, he went back to the shop and informed Tang Yun to let her go home at night, and then he rode a big motorcycle to the market again.

It is different to have a motorcycle. In the past, you had to ride for 10 minutes, but with a motorcycle, you can get there in 5 minutes.Now even the bar guests know this big motorcycle, as soon as they hear the sound, they know that Dong Si Wang Er has arrived.

Wang Xu already regards going to the market as going to work. He comes here every night, which is more punctual than going to work. Even in his busiest days, he never slack off.

He really enjoys the pure connection between the musician and the listener, not for the dozens of emotional points.

Today's rich people seem to be a bit extra lively, booth No. 1 is full, and a big customer has come from nowhere.

Usually there is some kind of celebration or something like this, otherwise the booth will be filled with a few men, a bunch of Yingying Yanyan.

The four songs are all in English, and they are still playing old tunes.Wang Xu's performance was relaxed and free, playing tricks from time to time, which aroused bursts of applause from the audience below.

This kind of playing with flowers is a high-end way of playing bar singers. It originated from jazz at first, then developed into rock music, and finally formed the so-called soul music.

A lot of soul music doesn't even have a basic score, it's based on a simple melody, changing with various chords, tactfully circling, deviant and never leaving, not giving up, not only has the rhythm of the main theme, but also has a special rhythm every time Changes, thus forming a dreamlike singing voice.

This kind of soul music is generally very small. If you like it, you love it very much. If you hate it, you think it is nothing but showing off skills, so there is a saying that soul music has no soul.

This kind of thing is the development of Western music. Chinese music emphasizes lyrics over music, and even many ancient songs have been lost, but the lyrics are the essence of timeless.

Western music is just the opposite, emphasizing tunes over lyrics. A lot of classic music has been circulated, but few classic lyrics have been circulated.The so-called hymns, arias, operas and the like place more emphasis on plot than rhetoric, and become scripts instead of poems.

This made Huaxia music almost crushed and defeated when it touched the West.People have accumulated and evolved for hundreds of years, and here they rely on country tunes, how can local folk songs resist.

On the other hand, Western poetry is also a century-old trend, and it also relies on strong boats and guns, but Western poetry can only cause a little splash.

The so-called modern poetry is only a few days after learning the Western style of non-rhythm and rhythmless, direct expression of the mind. After finding that it is not fun, it quickly returns to the pursuit of beauty and rhythm.

Even the so-called strong culture can't do any harm to Chinese poetry.

The flowers played by Wang Xu, in the eyes of ordinary people, are just a provocative, seductive, passionate, or restrained singing style, a special interpretation.

But the person sitting in booth No. 1 today is not an ordinary person.
