Next, Xiao Weiguo sang another classic song by the Prince of Love Songs, "Love Like a Tide".
The song has a deep and moving melody and touching lyrics. Xiao Weiguo's singing is incredibly captivating, leaving his younger sister, Xiao Shanshan, completely mesmerized.
After the song ended, Shanshan jumped up.
"Brother, what's the name of this song? It's so good."
Xiao Weiguo smiled smugly, sat down arrogantly, and then slowly said.
"The song is called 'Love Like a Tide,' which I wrote for fun."
This time, Xiao Shanshan couldn't help but believe him a little.
It would be understandable if she said she hadn't heard a song before, but now she's playing such a great song, there's no way she hasn't heard it before.
"Brother, wait a minute, I'll go get a notebook and write down the lyrics."
As she spoke, Xiao Shanshan turned around and ran back to her small room to find a notebook.
At this moment, Xiao Yue suddenly stood up, raised her delicate white hand, and shouted loudly, "Brother, I can sing too, I want to sing too."
Grandma Liu, who was sitting next to her, touched her hair and asked with some disbelief.
"Yueyue, can you really sing?"
Xiao Weiguo didn't think she could sing, because he hadn't heard her sing much before, and thought that even if Xiao Yue could, she could only hum a few nursery rhymes.
Xiao Yue nodded firmly.
"Really, Grandma, I'll sing for you."
As she spoke, Xiao Yue walked to an open space to the side and cleared her throat in a serious manner. Then she opened her two small hands.
A clear and melodious child's voice rang out in the living room.
Let us row our oars
The little boat pushes through the waves
The beautiful white pagoda is reflected in the sea.
Surrounded by green trees and red walls
The little boat drifted gently on the water.
A cool breeze blew in my face.
The red scarf faces the sun.
Sunlight shines on the sea
......
Xiao Yue's youthful voice was incredibly penetrating, giving people a feeling of exceptional purity.
There is also an indescribable magnetic charm, as if it is plucking at the strings of one's heart.
When the song ended, everyone in the room was stunned.
Xiao Weiguo never imagined that his little sister would have such talent.
Xiao Yue is usually a bit shy and doesn't dare to speak much in front of others.
But she sang with such confidence, without the slightest hint of shyness.
Could this be the legendary genius?
"Grandma, godfather, godmother, how did I sing?"
Xiao Yue returned to her seat and innocently raised her head to ask the people next to her.
"Oh my, my Yueyue sings so well, even better than the ones on TV."
Although Grandma doesn't understand pop songs, she can still tell whether her granddaughter sings well or not.
Wang Xiuhong looked at Xiao Weiguo with some surprise.
"Weiguo, do you usually teach Yueyue to sing?"
Xiao Weiguo shook his head blankly.
"No? Could it be Shanshan?"
Xiao Shanshan waved her hands repeatedly.
"No, I can't even sing properly. I can only listen to songs, I can't sing them."
That's really strange. Nobody taught her, so how could little Xiao Yue sing so well?
"Yueyue, who taught you to sing?"
All eyes turned to Xiao Yue.
Before Xiao Yue could answer, Xiao Jiang blurted it out.
“It was our teacher, Ms. Zhou, who taught her. Ms. Zhou even said that my sister is the most talented singer she has ever met.”
"Teacher Zhou? Your homeroom teacher, Ms. Zhou Ruolan?"
Xiao Weiguo craned his neck and asked Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue nodded.
"Our teacher Zhou sings so much better than me."
Isn't Zhou Ruolan a Chinese language teacher? How come she's teaching singing? She's not a music teacher.
Xiao Weiguo remembered Zhou Ruolan; she was very sweet-looking, with two dimples when she smiled.
"Did your teacher, Ms. Zhou, ever say why she taught you to sing?"
Xiao Weiguo had no choice but to ask Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue answered while eating.
"She said my voice is exceptionally good, perfect for singing."
Xiao Weiguo hadn't noticed this before, but Xiao Yue had just sung "Let Us Row Our Boats," which captivated him. This song demands considerable skill, and most people couldn't sing it at Xiao Yue's level. Compared to his own amateurish performance, she was far superior.
If we really want to compare them, then one is like a lark in the sky, and the other is like a crow on the ground.
To be able to raise a younger sister so well, this Teacher Zhou is truly remarkable.
Xiao Weiguo decided that he would go and meet Zhou Ruolan again when he had time, to see what kind of person she really was.
"Yueyue, when you grow up, do you want to sing?"
Since his younger sister has this talent, Xiao Weiguo would never let it go to waste. If she really had the interest, he wouldn't mind starting an entertainment company. With his knowledge of those songs from his previous life, making a few singers famous would be a piece of cake.
Xiao Yue looked at her brother and nodded.
"Yes, Teacher Zhou said that as long as I practice diligently, I will definitely become a singer in the future and sing for the people of the whole country on TV."
Xiao Weiguo kept her words in mind. He decided that after the New Year, he would find a professional music teacher to strengthen Yueyue's musical training.
Whether being a singer makes money or not is not important; he can handle that alone. What he needs to do is make his sister stand in the center of thousands of people's eyes and become the glory in everyone's eyes.
The New Year's Eve dinner ended quickly amidst laughter and conversation.
The Spring Festival Gala on TV is still going on.
What's being performed now is a skit called "Lamb Skewers" by Master Chen and Master Zhu.
This skit is a classic in the hearts of the audience from all the Spring Festival Galas. It's so funny that every line is a punchline that makes everyone laugh.
As the clock struck twelve, the year shifted from 1986 to 1987.
Only then did the family members return to their rooms to rest.
Xiao Weiguo arranged for Liu Changhe and his wife to stay in the room prepared for Dang Jian.
Jiao Bai then squeezed into the same bed with Xiao Weiguo.
Perhaps they were too excited, neither of them could sleep in bed, and they stared blankly at the ceiling with their eyes open.
After a long while, Jiao Bai turned over.
"Brother, thank you. I'm so happy today. This is the first time in so many years that I've had such a happy New Year."
Xiao Weiguo turned his head to look at him, chuckled, and put his hands behind his head.
"Not just you, but me too. After so many years, I finally understand how happy I am during the New Year."
In previous years, he would either be drinking with others or gambling at casinos at this time, never imagining what it would be like to spend the New Year with his family.
Xiao Shanshan and her few children were lucky if they could even get a meal of dumplings during the Chinese New Year.
Xiao Weiguo still feels sorry for them when he thinks about how they got through those days.
Fortunately, I was given a second chance at life, and I have the opportunity to make up for everything. Perhaps this is the greatest wish of everyone who dreams of time travel: to have the chance to avoid regrets.
