This is the story of how to cultivate a perfect female lead, a "plain and unremarkable" beautiful girl who一步步 grows into an all-around superstar.
Chapter 138 My Motherland and I
After Gu Qingge returned home, she was finally reunited with her father, mother, and younger brother in this world.
As mentioned before, Gu Qingge in the original world only depended on her grandmother, and later her grandmother passed away. When she traveled through time, she was already alone.
At the beginning, she actually didn't have much feelings for her new parents and brother in this world. She was just playing the role of the original Gu Qingge.
However, as she gradually accepted the memories of the original girl, and as she spent more time with them, and as her family members gave their all for her without reservation, she gradually accepted these family members who treated her well from the bottom of their hearts.
At this moment, her mother Pei Lu hugged Gu Qingge and said excitedly: "Qingqing, Mom is proud of you. You sang so well on stage!"
Her father, Gu Weiping, said proudly, "My daughter, you sang really well. It felt like I was listening to a singer singing!"
"It's obviously better than any other singer. I'm fascinated by it!" Mother Pei Lu said immediately.
Gu Qingge felt embarrassed by her parents' praise, mainly because she had the "lie detector" skill and realized that they were really praising her...
It feels really good to be praised by my family.
But as the saying goes, a bald-headed son is the best, so her parents must have a filter when looking at her.
Even if she didn't perform well on her first big stage performance, they would probably say that it was already very good to have such a performance for the first time.
Little brother Gu Wenzhou felt a little sad. He thought that when he won the S6 World Championship, his parents were not so excited. It turned out that his sister was their sweetheart, and he was like an adopted child.
However, Gu Wenzhou has been used to it since he was a child. He is the youngest brother with the least status in the family.
Moreover, his sister's live performance is really amazing. He has actually been a senior "fan" for a long time and knows all of his sister's schedules and announcements.
Although he admired his elder sister very much in his heart, he did not praise her out loud, but turned on the brand new big TV in the living room.
In fact, Gu Qingge and Gu Wenzhou, brother and sister, had already discussed that they wanted to buy a new big house for their parents together. After all, the housing prices in Handong City, a county town, were not that high.
Of course, Gu's father and mother refused. They had long been accustomed to living in this old neighborhood. The house was close to their workplace and the surrounding neighborhood relations were good. They would get together on weekends to play mahjong and cards, so they were not willing to move somewhere else.
In desperation, the brother and sister used their money to renovate the house and replaced all the appliances, so that at least their parents could live more comfortably.
This time, Mr. and Mrs. Gu no longer refused the kindness of their children, but they still felt it was a little unreal.
Other people's children, at this age, are obviously still spending their parents' money. After all, they are in college. If they have a relationship or something, they will naturally spend a lot of money.
Even when their daughter is in love, they always teach her not to take advantage of boys, and that only by giving to each other can the relationship last. This is their simple idea.
However, each of their children is better at making money than the other. Just from Gu Qingge's participation in these three New Year's Eve parties, her income has already opened the eyes of her father and mother. No wonder everyone likes to criticize celebrities, and everyone wants to be a celebrity.
Seeing Gu Wenzhou turning on the TV, Gu Weiping frowned and scolded him, "Xiaozhou, why don't you just praise your sister? Why are you so anxious to turn on the TV?"
Gu Wenzhou rolled his eyes and thought to himself that although he also admired his elder sister, there was no need to be as exaggerated as his parents, right?
He also wants to save face!
"I turned on the TV and of course continued to watch her show. You all know that she sang "My Motherland and I" at the CCTV New Year's Eve Gala at 10 o'clock, and Queen's "aLIEz" was performed at the B station New Year's Eve Gala at 11 o'clock, right?" Gu Wenzhou responded.
Gu Wenzhou's performance was that of a senior "fan". He knew his elder sister's program like the back of his hand!
Gu Qingge curled the corners of his mouth. This little brother is becoming more and more sensible. Not bad, not bad.
When Gu Wenzhou's father and mother heard what he said, they quickly sat down on the sofa. It was almost ten o'clock when they got home.
As a father, Gu Weiping felt extremely honored that Gu Qingge was able to sing patriotic songs on a CCTV program.
He couldn't help but say to Gu Wenzhou, "Look, your sister is truly bringing glory to the country. Don't let your pride get the better of you just because you won an S-level championship. What about the Asian Games and Olympic gold medals?"
Gu Wenzhou looked at his sister resentfully and felt helpless. Obviously, the S championship was also a glory for the country. After all, it was also the first championship of LPL.
Seeing this, Gu Qingge smiled and peeled an apple for his father, mother and younger brother.
Pei Lu couldn't help but praise again: "My Qingqing is so considerate, just like a little cotton-padded jacket."
Gu Wenzhou also happily ate the apple peeled by his sister. He didn't feel resentful at all and just thought his sister was so nice!
At this time, on CCTV-1, Gu Qingge, dressed in red, as if draping the national flag on her body, finally appeared and began to sing -
"My country and I cannot be separated for a moment
Wherever I go, a hymn flows
I sing every mountain I sing every river
A rut on the road to a small village with curling smoke
La... La...
You spoke to me with your motherly tenderness
My motherland and I are like the sea and the waves
…
La... La...
Always give me the song in my heart, clear waves and blue waters"
The moment Gu Weiping heard his daughter's light and pleasant singing, he felt particularly touched. Influenced by his family background, as can be seen from his name, he is a very patriotic person.
So this song touched his heart deeply. After listening to it, he couldn't help but say with emotion: "My daughter, this song 'My Motherland and I' is my favorite of all your songs. It's well written and well sung! Dad is so lucky to have a daughter like you!"
Mother Pei Lu couldn't help but admire her, "Qingqing, you picked such a great outfit. I think your stage presence is quite like that of a national team singer. Are you participating in this Spring Festival Gala?"
Gu Qingge shook her head and smiled, "I didn't participate. We'll talk about it later. But it's also great to be able to watch the Spring Festival Gala with everyone!"
Gu Wenzhou, however, felt a bit unfair for his sister: "The Spring Festival Gala is getting worse and worse. It doesn't matter whether you participate or not. In the past, whoever was on was popular, and now whoever is popular gets to participate. Anyway, if they don't invite you, it's their loss, just like Mango TV, they are so blind!"
