"Sister, you should throw away this crappy Walkman. The sound quality should have been eliminated a long time ago." Li Jianping picked up the Walkman on the desk and said.
Li smiled and shook his head and said, "If you don't throw it away, maybe this thing will become an antique when we are all old, and it will be worth some money."
Jian Bo said: "Wei, don't worry, when we are all seventy or eighty years old, this thing will not become an antique."
Li Wei said seriously: "I am nostalgic and don't like to lose all the past."
When Jian Bo heard about it, he noticed that there were a lot of things piled up in the room. He took a look at the bookcase. The yellowed old books and some trophies that Li Wei had won were full of memories of the past.
Li Jianping reached out and turned off the Walkman and told everyone: "I have taught myself guitar since Jianbo left. The weather is nice today, so I will play a few for you."
The eldest brother sang well, and Li Wei welcomed him. She hurriedly clapped and said, "Okay, eldest brother, come on and sing a song."
"Okay, please order some songs."
Li Wei opened his big watery eyes and said with a bit of playfulness: "Let me sing "The Story of Time" first."
Li Jianping said, "This is easy." He held the pick in one hand and ran it across the strings. After testing the sound, he began to play. Li Jianping was in high spirits, singing as he played, "The flowers blooming in spring, the wind blowing in autumn, and the setting sun in winter, the melancholy youth I once ignorantly thought about..."
Li Jianping has an excellent singing voice and plays the guitar well. They really complement each other.
After Li Jianping sang this song, he asked Li Wei to order, and Li Wei ordered a song called "Sweet Honey". Li Jianbo on the side said: "Let Weiwei sing this song."
Li Jianping shook his head in pain and said, "No, her singing is so magical that it can kill people." Then he started playing and singing by himself.
Li Jianping played and sang five songs in a row. His mouth was dry and he was tired. He gave the guitar to Jianbo. Jianbo hadn't played the guitar for a long time, but he could play the violin. The guitar was easier for him to get started. He played the song "Love Song 1990" first.
Li Wei sat on the bed and listened quietly. People who came from that era always have an inexplicable affinity for these songs. Li Jianbo also sang and played. His voice was not as good as Jianping's, and his skills were not as good as his. His voice was slightly hoarse, but he sang with a different charm.
The long music seemed to take her back to ten years ago, when everyone still had childish faces, and the three brothers and sisters were united, friendly, and having fun. As the Spring Festival of that year was approaching, she and her second brother went to the town to set up a stall and sell couplets. She wrote all day long, and her hands were almost useless, just to earn a few cents.
Later, the brother and sister shared the income equally. After the second brother divided the income equally, the second brother gave her the extra part. Looking back on that time, although she felt the uneasiness and fear when she first came here, having her second brother beside her was like taking reassurance. Don't be afraid of anything. Time flies like water, and in a blink of an eye everyone becomes an adult, but the innocence at the beginning slowly turns into something else.
At this moment, Li Wei missed his second brother at that time very much.
Li Jianbo sang this song, and then played and sang another song. The song sounded familiar to Li Wei but he couldn't remember what song it was, but Li Jianbo opened his mouth and it was another Cantonese song. She doesn't speak Cantonese and can't understand most of it. But when Li Jianbo played the prelude, Li Jianping took a deep look at his brother and thought that Jianbo was naked and confessing his love. Is it inconvenient for him to stay here? He glanced at his sister again, who looked calm at the moment. He thought to himself that he had never heard of this song. No, Chen Baiqiang's song "I Just Like You" was very popular back then. It seemed that he probably hadn't heard it. clear.
After Li Jianbo finished singing the song affectionately, Jianping stood up and smiled at Li: "Well Weiwei, your sister-in-law called me down below. I'll go over and take a look."
"Sister-in-law called you, why didn't I hear you?" Li Wei listened carefully for a while.
Li Jianping didn't blush when he lied to his face. He raised his phone and said, "She sent me a text message saying that something happened. I'll be there as soon as I go." He patted Jianbo on the back and said, "Sing well, come on! "
Jianping walked to the door and thoughtfully helped to close the door. Jianbo lowered his head and played some music. He stopped humming and didn't know what music he was playing. Li Wei thought that she would have to face him one day. She couldn't hide to the ends of the earth. Even if she wanted to go to England, she had to tell him.
Jianbo didn't speak for a long time, he just lowered his head and played some music. After playing for a while, no one came to break the awkwardness in the room. Finally, after playing a piece of music, he looked up at Li Wei and said very seriously: "Wei, shall we go to Harbin for Christmas?"
Li Wei looked at her second brother in surprise and said, "Why are you going to Harbin? It's freezing and snowy."
"That's your wish. Let's go see St. Sophia Church then. It still has to snow for Christmas to be atmospheric, so you should make arrangements in advance, okay?"
When she just said it casually, he remembered it.
Li Jianbo had already put down his guitar, walked up to her, knelt on one knee and half in front of the bed, and conveniently held Li Wei's white hand on his knee.
Li Wei hurriedly tried to shrink back, but Li Jianbo tightened his grip even harder.
"In what capacity are we going?"
"It can be a couple or a brother and sister, it's up to you to decide."
Li Wei's heart trembled. She finally looked at the unfamiliar brother in front of her. She took advantage of his carelessness and withdrew her hand, clasping her hands behind her back. She looked at this familiar face extremely nervously, her lips trembling slightly. After sitting there for a long time, I couldn't hold back a sentence: "I'm afraid I won't be able to go. I have already applied for further study in Taili and am waiting for the approval. I have to go to a language school for training after I return here..."
"You cruel person..." Li Jianbo said and leaned forward, almost pressing down on him. The alarm bell in Li Wei's head rang loudly, and she smelled danger. He quickly shrank back, then grabbed the sheets and stood up. In the end, Li Jianbo couldn't get what he wanted.
Looking at the panicked Li Wei, Li Jianbo's mind became clear. He carefully recalled what Li Wei had just said: "Where are you going?"
"U.K."
"How long does it take?"
"About a year. Of course, whether it can be approved is still a question."
"One year has passed so quickly. I'm waiting for you to come back."
"No, no, you don't have to wait for me." Li Wei shook his head like a rattle and shouted anxiously: "You go and meet the woman you know, get to know more women, fall in love and get married, I don't dare to delay you. I can't afford to delay my life..." Li Wei was so anxious that he almost burst into tears.
