Su Tao originally intended to teach Jiang Dashi this song to express his love. The lyrics are simple and easy to learn, and the situation in which the lyrics are used is particularly suitable for expressing love, especially when sung a cappella at night.
"Okay, I'll teach you one by one now. Your task in the afternoon is to sing it." Teacher Su Tao taught Jiang Dashi the lyrics one by one.
After seeing that Jiang Dashi had basically memorized the lyrics, he said, "Then you practice on your own. Remember to put in the emotion. If you can't see it yourself, sing to He Chuan and imagine him as Hu Xiao. I won't accompany you. I have to prepare dinner first, otherwise you won't have anything to eat after you successfully confess your love." Su Tao gave a few instructions, left the two men staring at each other, and went to the kitchen to prepare the meal.
"How are we going to practice?" Jiang Dashi asked with a bitter face as Su Tao left.
"Didn't Taotao say that you should practice facing me and I will listen to how you sing. Hurry up." He Chuan was a little impatient and looked down on him. He didn't even want to accompany him to practice. Wouldn't it be better for him to accompany Su Tao?
"No, the point is that I can't sing in front of a grown man like you~" Jiang Dashi's eyebrows were almost wrinkled with embarrassment.
He Chuan couldn't help laughing when he saw him like this. "Why don't you just close your eyes and imagine that the person standing in front of you is Hu Xiao."
"Okay, this is the only way. I'll try it." Jiang Dashi sighed.
At this time, He Yanzhi just came back from outside. She was shocked when she saw the scene in front of her. What was going on? What was Brother Shitou doing to her brother?
The two men were also embarrassed by the little girl's sudden discovery and stood there, their eyes glancing up into the sky to hide their embarrassment.
Su Tao saw this scene and chuckled, "Yanzhi, come here." He waved to the little girl to come over.
"What's wrong? Sister Taotao, what are they doing?" The little girl looked confused.
"Your brother Dashi wanted to confess his love to Sister Hu Xiao yesterday, but he was practicing his confession on your brother." Su Tao covered his mouth and smiled.
"Could you please tell Hu Xiaojie to come over to our place for dinner the following evening? Don't say anything else. And tell her to wait for me to find her. There's no need to rush over." Su Tao continued, worried that if she told Hu Xiaojie about dinner, she might arrive too early and the arrangements wouldn't be complete, or if it wasn't dark yet, which would affect the overall effect. It would be better for her to come first, so she could control the timing and steps. By the time she arrived, Jiang Dashi could start preparing.
"Oh, is that so. Okay, I promise to complete the task." The little girl saluted. Su Tao wanted to pinch her because of her cute appearance.
Before leaving, the little girl turned around, raised her fist, and playfully encouraged Jiang Dashi: "Brother Dashi, come on! Keep going!"
Jiang Dashi's forehead was etched with dark lines, and he didn't know what to say. Perhaps he was just being irritated. He'd lost face enough the previous day, and tonight he had to succeed. Jiang Dashi actually threw his pride aside and continued singing. The way he looked at Su Tao gave him goosebumps.
Su Tao cooked a few of Hu Xiao's favorite dishes: braised chicken, stir-fried bacon with garlic sprouts, a pot of old duck soup, and stir-fried seasonal vegetables. He basically used up all the ingredients Jiang Dashi brought.
After finishing the dish, I looked at the sky and saw that it was getting dark. It was about time. In winter, the nights always get dark very early.
Su Tao began to prepare to set up the scene. Little He Yanzhi had already returned and was watching Su Tao tinkering with it curiously.
Jiang Dashi also looked excited, because it was his turn to perform tonight.
Su Tao beckoned them over and instructed them, "Place the red candles in the shape of a big heart on the ground in the yard, and place the word 'xiao' inside the heart. I'll be in charge of the word 'xiao', and you will use candles to form a heart around the outside."
After the candles were placed, Su Tao took out a handful of red roses, removed the petals, and spread them around the candles.
"Wow~ Sister Taotao, you are so beautiful." He Yanzhi held her little face in her hands and exclaimed in amazement.
