Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Why do you never think you are good-looking?

Zhang Shuchun and his wife also came over and looked at the photos and praised them. Zhang Leilei suddenly blushed.

Growing up, I have never heard my parents compliment me on how beautiful I am.

"Sister, let's ask my dad to take another photo of us." Yu Tongtong took Zhang Leilei's hand affectionately.

This time, Zhang Leilei did not refuse.

In the evening, Yu Dongqing and the others stayed in Chaka Town. Although the room rate here is more expensive, they will also visit Chaka Salt Lake tomorrow. Zhang Leilei likes the scenery here very much and is in a much more cheerful mood.

The enthusiastic Zhang Shuchun pulled Yu Dongqing and asked him to go out for barbecue, and Yu Dongqing agreed.

There is a barbecue restaurant nearby called Magayou. The barbecue tastes quite good. The two families, Yu Dongqing and Zhang Shuchun, chatted while eating. Since they had a rest tonight and would not be driving tomorrow, Zhang Shuchun even took out a bottle of highland barley liquid.

Zhang Shuchun's wife does not drink. The two girls chatted while eating and playing with their mobile phones. Yu Dongqing and Zhang Shuchun drank and chatted.

Perhaps they were familiar with each other after spending a few days together, and Zhang Shuchun was not as restrained as before. The Mongolian boldness was immediately revealed, eating large chunks of meat and drinking wine without any pleasure.

The last two girls were taken back to the hotel by Zhang Shuchun's wife to rest, while Yu Dongqing and he continued to drink and chat.

"Mr. Yu, thank you very much. Our Leilei is in a much better mood these days than before, and we can often see her smiling happily." Zhang Shuchun said.

"Why are you being polite? It's not entirely my fault. The scenery here is beautiful and there is no pressure to go out to play, so the girl is naturally in a much better mood."

Zhang Shuchun nodded and sighed: "I can't figure it out now. What's wrong with today's children? You said that at that time, our food and clothing were not as good as those of today's children. At school, the teacher scolded us, and sometimes when we got home, Even though you are beaten by your parents, you are still active and active all day long, and I haven’t heard of anyone who is depressed?”

"Don't tell me, it was the first time I heard the word depression after my girl got this disease." Zhang Shuchun finally said.

"I don't understand either." Yu Dongqing smiled and said: "But the environment that the post-00s generation now lives in is different from that of our time. In our time, some had older brothers, sisters, and younger brothers, and the family was very lively. At least cousins. Something like that? But today’s children, do they have any relatives? They just play alone, which is quite lonely.”

Speaking of this, Yu Dongqing thought of his daughter Yu Tongtong again.

Thinking about it, she was actually quite lonely. Her mother passed away early. Fortunately, her aunt Mingliang was very kind to her and made up for some of the maternal love she lacked.

She must pay attention to her mental health and never be like Zhang Leilei.

"You are right. To be honest, my wife and I paid too little attention to our children. We were busy going to work all day long. Now that I think about it, I really regret it." Zhang Shuchun let out a long sigh.

"Brother Zhang, actually don't blame yourself. I think Leilei is doing very well now. If things continue like this, she will get better soon." Yu Dongqing comforted her.

"I hope so. Come and express your gratitude." Zhang Chunsheng raised his glass again.

The next day, they continued to play near the Chaka Salt Lake. Zhang Leilei was much more lively than before. She rolled up her trousers and played with Yu Tongtong by the lake with her bare feet. Finally, even Yu Dongqing took off her shoes and soaked in the water with them. Play together.

In the evening, we still returned to Chaka Town, and prepared to leave back to Xining the next morning.

Tonight, instead of drinking and eating barbecue, I sat outside and watched the stars.

Chaka Salt Lake at night is known as the "Mirror of the Night Sky" in China. The Milky Way here looks particularly vast and majestic, and from time to time a shooting star will cross the lake. The reflection of the lake surface makes the starry sky and the lake surface blend into one color, as if the starry sky is falling on the lake surface.

The two families sat together and chatted.

Perhaps because they were familiar with each other, Zhang Leilei also took the initiative to talk to Yu Dongqing.

"Uncle Yu, we are leaving here tomorrow, can you play a song for me?" the girl asked with courage.

"Okay." Yu Dongqing smiled heartily, then turned back to her daughter and said, "Tongtong, go back to the hotel and get the guitar."

"Okay." Yu Tongtong immediately ran to the hotel not far away.

When her daughter brought the guitar, Yu Dongqing smiled and asked, "Which song do you want to listen to?"

"Well, "Story of Time", "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" and that song "Learning to Meow"!

Ah?

Although the next two songs were not suitable for Yu Dongqing to sing, he still sang very seriously. However, the last song "Learning to Meow" was sung by Yu Tongtong on his own initiative. With a childish voice, this song has a unique flavor.

Everyone applauded.

"Sister Leilei, can you sing a song too?" Yu Tongtong immediately invited Zhang Leilei.

"I can't, I can't sing." Zhang Leilei shook her head quickly.

"How could that be? Don't you like the songs my dad wrote?"

Finally, with everyone's encouragement, the girl finally opened her mouth and sang "The Story of Time", with Yu Dongqing accompaniment on the guitar.

Yu Dongqing was surprised to find that the girl's voice was quite good, very clear, and her voice was highly recognizable. It would be easy for a singer like this to gain a foothold on the singing stage, and she would know who she was when she heard her voice.

The most obvious one is Faye Wong in the original time and space.

The girl's voice certainly received warm applause from several people.

The atmosphere was up, and even Zhang Shuchun sang a very ancient Mongolian folk song "Gada Meilin":

Little swan geese flying from the south

If you don’t fall on the Yangtze River, you won’t take off.

Gada Merlin who wants to talk about uprising

For the land of the Mongolian people

The voice is bold.

Zhang Leilei was infected by this atmosphere and summoned up the courage to ask: "Uncle Yu, you said two days ago that you wrote a new song about "The Sea", can you let me listen to it?"

"Leilei, uncle is joking with you." Zhang Shuchun said quickly.

He had already seen that day that Yu Dongqing said that to make Zhang Leilei happy.

Unexpectedly, Yu Dongqing burst out laughing: "Brother Zhang, I didn't lie to Leilei, I really wrote a song."

"Really?" Zhang Leilei became happy.

"But it's not about the sea." Yu Dongqing apologized.

In fact, it turns out that there were many songs about the sea in that time and space.

For example, "The Sea" by Zhang Yusheng, "Listening to the Sea" by Zhang Huimei, "Autumn Sea" by Su Huilun, "The Old Man and the Sea" by Hemingway, etc., including "Under the Sea".

But Yu Dongqing felt that these songs were not suitable at this moment.

He wanted to give the girl a very warm song.

After thinking for a while, I picked up the guitar again, started playing and singing:

every time

They are all wandering and staying strong in loneliness

every time

Even if I'm hurt, I won't shed tears

I know

I have always had a pair of invisible wings

Take me flying through despair

Don't think about it

They have beautiful sun.

"Invisible Wings" was written and composed by musician Wang Yajun and sung by Angela Zhang.

The melody was beautiful and the lyrics were catchy. Zhang Leilei was immediately attracted.

What a great song.

After Yu Dongqing finished singing, she looked at Zhang Leilei: "Do you like it? Do you want to sing?"

"think!"

"Okay, I'll teach you."

The next morning, after getting up and washing up, she went downstairs to eat. Yu Dongqing watched Zhang Leilei happily singing the song "Invisible Wings" she taught last night, and asked with a heartbeat: "Leilei, do you want to learn to sing like a singer?" Let a lot of people hear it.”
