Chapter 94 What Thing Jumped Up?
Mu Qing has been on a roller coaster since he was woken up this morning, and even sneezed twice after returning indoors.He took a look at the dark sky, swallowed two cold medicines, took advantage of the sleeping effect of the medicine, fell asleep, and slept until after one o'clock in the afternoon before waking up.
The physical fatigue was gone, he was about to check if Gong Shichen was awake, but when he opened the door, he saw his friend sitting cross-legged on the sofa, eating cookies and watching TV.Yunsi sat next to him and gnawed the freeze-dried food. After two bites, she looked up at Gong Shichen's screen. Her little furry head swayed back and forth following the movements of the characters on the screen, which was ridiculous and cute.
Mu Qing took out his mobile phone, took a picture and sent it to Gong Shichen's mother, and then he sat down next to Gong Shichen: "You two eat snacks here early in the morning, do you want to eat later?"
"I was the one who ate the snacks." Gong Shichen corrected him seriously, "Yun Si has already eaten, and this is an extra meal."
"You can't always give it extra food, its physique is already much stronger than the average cat." Mu Qing touched Yunsi who had cleverly leaned beside him, and then patted its round belly, "Tomorrow if you Wake up early, take it to exercise."
"Wow, let the kitten exercise, you are inhuman!"
Gong Shichen complained casually, but obediently put the freeze-dried bag back into the drawer, patted the crumbs on his hands, and said to Mu Qing, "Shall we go to eat now?"
Mu Qing glanced at the half plate of cookies missing, hesitated to speak: "Can you eat it?"
"Of course! Snacks don't take up your stomach." Gong Shichen spoke plausibly.
The outdoor temperature in St. Petersburg has been below zero recently, and Gong Shichen has very strong opinions on this.No matter what to do, before he goes out, there are 1 reluctances.But when he actually went out and saw the brightly colored streets, his emotions would gradually rise again.
Mu Qing looked at Gong Shichen who was about to trot ahead with a loving smile on his face, and said calmly: "Shichen, run slowly, I'll go buy you some oranges later."
Gong Shichen couldn't hear his implication, he frowned, turned around and glared at him: "Don't take advantage of me!"
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows: "Yo? I thought you'd forgotten about this long ago."
"It's just that I'm not good at Chinese, not my brain!" Gong Shichen complained, "I thought you had restrained yourself a few days ago, why are you acting like before these days? Your sarcasm skill CD Okay, right?"
"Maybe it's because our parent-child relationship needs to go further." Mu Qing took a step back immediately after saying this, and happened to avoid the snowball thrown by Gong Shichen.
He raised his hand to check the time, and changed the subject openly: "It's almost time, we have to take a taxi to the museum, or you won't be able to catch up with the exhibition you want to see later."
Gong Shichen was only pretending to be angry, but seeing Mu Qing gradually returning to normal, he was overjoyed.Therefore, he didn't bother with Mu Qing any more, and even went to the side of the road to flag down a taxi, and happily told the driver the location in the Russian words he had just learned: "Gala Ciguoyi Equisetum!"
The driver hesitated for a moment, and said to Gong Shichen word by word in blunt Chinese: "Shi-bo-wu-Gu'an?"
Gong Shichen: "Dada, Dada! City Museum!"
Seeing him nodding, the driver raised his eyebrows proudly, and pointed his thumb at the position of the rear door: "Get in the car!"
Mu Qing was originally worried that Gong Shichen could not tell where he was, and followed him, seeing that the communication between him and the driver was smooth, he kept silent.It wasn't until he finally got out of the car to pay that he smiled and said to the driver: "Thank you very much for sending me here. I wish you a prosperous business today and a happy new year."
The driver frowned: "Do you speak Russian?"
Mu Qing smiled: "Well, but I think I should give my friends room to play."
driver:........
Under his complicated gaze, Mu Qing turned around and left calmly, leading Gong Shichen towards the museum.
Special free exhibitions during the New Year period made the museum more attractive than usual. Family sightseeing groups and young lovers flocked in groups. Gong Shichen lined up behind Mu Qing, watching the happy surroundings, and was very moved: "Really OK."
Mu Qing handed him his passport and visitor card: "If you are envious, can you find one here and take it back?"
Gong Shichen shook his head resolutely: "I'll find a noose when I'm sick? The fragrance of a single dog is always the most charming!"
Mu Qing was noncommittal: "There are so many people, don't get lost."
Gong Shichen: "Oh yes."
The size of the city museum is not small, but because of the special exhibition, it looks a lot more crowded than usual.Gong Shichen followed Mu Qing, looking at the exhibits while listening to him interpreting for himself. The visit was very comfortable, but Mu Qing, who acted as a free interpreter, was not so lucky.
Originally, Mu Qing was only introducing the exhibits to Gong Shichen alone, but gradually he was surrounded by a bunch of domestic students and tourists who knew little or no Russian, and all of them looked eager for knowledge.Some people were fascinated by it, and they raised their hands to ask a few questions from time to time while he was explaining.Mu Qing's sense of responsibility made troubles and he didn't hesitate to answer them one by one seriously.
It wasn't until after visiting this exhibition area that Gong Shichen expressed that he wanted to take a rest, the crowd around him dispersed with a lot of interest.
"Explaining and explaining, we formed a temporary tour group. Is it worthy of you?" On the way to buy drinks with Mu Qing, Gong Shichen sighed, "I have never experienced such a thing as taking students to class." exhibition."
Mu Qingqing couldn't do it well, so he just whispered back to him: "It's just a little effort."
Gong Shichen smiled: "It's because you speak well that they are willing to follow along."
The two chatted one after another, and when they came to the first floor, there were not many people queuing up at the drink window.Gong Shichen ran over to buy two cups of hot drinks, and handed one to Mu Qing: "No one that is too sweet, you will be thirstier if you drink one that is too sweet now."
"Thank you." Mu Qing took the drink handed over by Gong Shichen, took a sip to relieve the anxiety in his mouth, and was about to go shopping with Gong Shichen in other places, when there was a sudden commotion in the middle of the museum Voice.
Gong Shichen has always liked to be a fun person, so he immediately pulled Mu Qing over there: "Let's go, let's see what it is—wow!"
The high platform in the middle of the first floor was not too low. The exhibits on the high platform had been covered with a velvet cover when they came, but at this moment the cover was carefully lifted off by the person standing by, and the exhibits hidden inside were exposed. out.
It was a very beautiful grand piano. The beautiful black exterior was shining brightly under the central light. Just a show, it already highlighted its expensive price.
The man standing in the middle picked up the microphone and began to explain with a smile on his face.Gong Shichen didn't quite understand, so he asked Mu Qing, "What is he talking about?"
Mu Qing looked at the piano, and subconsciously moved his finger holding the drink, but there was no extra expression on his face: "He is introducing this piano, saying that it is a treasure that a certain Russian pianist used before his death. … Now I am introducing the past of the pianist.”
The man in the center was talking endlessly, and Mu Qing translated to Gong Shichen in a low voice: "Now he is introducing the quality and tone of this piano... Ah, he is asking if there is anyone who can play the piano, You can just play a song."
As soon as Mu Qing finished speaking, Gong Shichen suddenly dragged him forward a few steps to the front of the stage, and said to the man in the center in fluent English: "My friend used to be a pianist, but he gave up because of some things. the piano, but I still think he's the best, best pianist I've ever seen. So, can you give him a try?"
Mu Qing was still holding the drink in his hand, and was caught off guard by Gong Shichen who pushed him forward, exposing himself to everyone's sight: "Shichen! You—"
"Of course!" The man on the stage is very good at stirring up the atmosphere. He responded to Gong Shichen in English with a smile, and then raised his voice and said to the people around him in Russian, "A foreign friend wants to play a song for us. , are you looking forward to it?"
"Looking forward!" Watching the excitement has always been human nature, especially when you are with your family or with your companions.Coupled with the fact that there were some people around who had heard Mu Qing's explanation just now, the atmosphere of watching the excitement was even stronger.The language of the responses varies, but the atmosphere is really lively.
Mu Qing never expected to be pushed out by Gong Shichen, and now that so many people were watching, it was hard to refuse directly, so he could only look at Gong Shichen with a frown.
Gong Shichen was not moved by his eyes: "I know you haven't touched the piano since last year, and the piano at home has been placed with Aunt Tao. But I still think, You don't need his affirmation at all, because you are already good."
I'm already excellent......?
Mu Qing lowered his eyes and did not immediately respond to Gong Shichen's words.
Although the men on the stage didn't quite understand what they were talking about, they had top-notch reading skills.He thought for a moment, then looked at Mu Qing with a smile: "Sir, although I don't know why you stopped playing the piano, I know a truth: there is no perfect thing in this world. Time is better than perfection."
"Really?" Mu Qing looked at Gong Shichen's expression, which was obviously full of worry but refused to back down, and looked at the people waiting quietly around him, and suddenly sighed softly, and switched to Russian language on the stage. The man said, "Thank you for your encouragement. I am willing to give it a try. But I haven't played the piano for nearly two years. If I don't play well, I ask the original owner of this piano not to blame me."
"How come!" The man happily gave way to Mu Qing, "Please start playing!"
Mu Qing has played the piano many times before, but since high school, he has never played in front of so many people.One is because his hand needs a long recovery period, and the other is because of Murui's tantrum, and every time he looks at himself, his eyes are full of disappointment and anger.
after that........
Mu Qing cut off the memory in time, walked along the steps to the piano, and sat on the piano bench.He looked at the black and white piano keys in front of him, calmed his breath a little, and then stroked them gently.
Gong Shichen pushed Mu Qing out just now out of impulse, but now he is full of anxiety.When Mu Qing raised his hand, his heart was almost in his throat, but after a while, a smile gradually emerged from Gong Shichen's mouth.
The sound of the piano was a little rusty at the beginning, but it didn't take long before it quickly reached Mu Qing's previous level, and even became more intoxicating because of more time experience.
The melodious sound of the piano poured out like water. After the last syllable fell, the crowd watching the excitement didn't react immediately. It took a while to realize that the song was over, so the cheers and applause exploded stand up.
Gong Shichen looked at Mu Qing's smiling side face, feeling very happy for his friend.He was about to push through the crowd and wait for Mu Qing to come down, but before he could move, he saw a man holding a flower who came to the steps ahead of him, stepping on the steps to Mu Qing's side.
The man was dressed in a straight suit and had a bright smile. Just looking at his back, he could tell he was extremely handsome and elegant.The man politely put a bouquet of blooming red tulips into Mu Qing's arms, then took Mu Qing's hand, and kissed the back of his hand lightly: "I like your piano sound very much, This bouquet of flowers shows my admiration for you, and I hope you have a happy new year."
The melodious Russian flowed from his lips, and the expressions of the people around him changed from shock and bewilderment to understanding, and they all applauded.
Gong Shichen stood in the crowd, looking at the dizzyingly handsome profile of the man opposite Mu Qing, but the expression on his face was distorted to the extreme.Resisting the urge to rush up and beat someone up in public, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out the man's name: "Yu, Yi, Feng!"
--------------------
The first sentence of Gong Shichen's words is a transliteration of "городскоймузей", which means: City Museum.
The "Da" that Gong Shichen said is a transliteration of the Russian "Да", which means affirmation, which is equal to the Chinese "Yes" and the English "yes"
Note: The city museum in the article is purely fictitious, don't take it seriously, if you really want to travel to Petersburg, it is recommended to go to the National Museum, which is very worth seeing.
