Chapter 1146 Sister, can you play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"?
More than half an hour later, Su woke up and arrived at the park's parking lot.
She first got the driver out of the car, then took two musical instruments and locked the car.
A person and a dog entered the park.
It's late November now, and the weather in Beijing is a bit cold. Su Xing isn't sure if he'll be able to run into an elderly man playing a musical instrument in the park on a day like this.
But since she's already out, she might as well just take it out for fun.
After entering the park, Su Xing took Bu Diu for a stroll and played for a while.
Finally, the man and the dog couldn't move from a sausage stall.
The sizzling, oily sausages emitted an enticing aroma that wafted straight into the noses of the man and his dog.
Su Xing looked down and asked Bu Diu, "Bu Diu, do you want to eat grilled sausage?"
Bu Diu quickly responded, "Woof!"
Su Xing said, "Okay, since you want to eat it, Mommy will eat with you."
Bu Diu raised his dog eyes and gave her a slight sidelong glance.
Su Xing held Bu Di's hand and walked towards the sausage stall.
"Hi boss, how much are the grilled sausages?"
The shopkeeper said, "Three yuan for one, five yuan for two."
Su Xing said, "Give me two sausages, one with sauce and one without."
The boss replied, "Okay!"
Su Xing scanned the code to pay, and then the man and his dog began to watch the owner grilling the sausages with longing eyes.
After the owner finished grilling, he put the two sausages into two separate plastic bags and handed them to Su Xing.
"Hold on carefully, it's hot."
Su Xing took the sausage, her eyes crinkling as she said, "Okay, thank you."
She took Bu Diu and walked towards a bench not far away.
After sitting down on the bench, she prepared to eat the sausage with the sauce first.
Bu Diu sat opposite Su Xing, staring at her, drool dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Su Xing opened his mouth to take a bite of his sausage, but seeing Bu Diu's greedy look, he couldn't help but laugh and say, "Bu Diu, you can eat it later. The sausage is still too hot. I'm just afraid you'll burn yourself."
Bu Diu made a soft "woo~" sound and kept staring at the sausage in her hand.
Su Xing avoided Bu Diu's gaze and focused on finishing his own sausage.
When she looked up again, there were already two small ponds on the paving stones in front of her.
A little girl, about four or five years old, came over, squatted down a short distance away, looked at Su Xing, and then looked at Su Xing again.
The little girl said anxiously, "Sister, please feed the dog! The dog is so pitiful!"
Su Xing looked at the little girl and smiled, "Okay, I'll feed it to it now."
The child's mother jogged over and said apologetically to Su Xing, "I'm sorry to bother you. I wasn't watching her for a second, and she ran over here."
Su Xing smiled and said, "It's alright, she didn't bother us."
The sausage that Bu Diu had given him wasn't so hot anymore. Su Xing peeled open the plastic bag and handed it to Bu Diu's mouth.
Without even opening his mouth, he ate the sausage in two bites.
The little girl beside her was still watching intently, asking curiously, "The dog eats so fast, how can it taste anything?"
Su Xing smiled and replied, "Yes, dogs mainly rely on their sense of smell to taste food."
The little girl's eyes sparkled. "Oh, I see..."
As she spoke, she took two more steps closer to Buliu.
The child's mother grabbed her daughter's arm and said, "It's okay to look at dogs if you like them, but you should keep a certain distance. Because you don't know the dog, you don't understand it, and it doesn't understand you. It might get nervous if a stranger gets close to it."
The little girl said with some regret, "Alright then..."
The child's mother led her to a bench next door and gave her a thermos to drink.
Su Xing took off the erhu and bamboo flute he was carrying and placed them on the bench.
"I won't throw it away. You watch the things while I go to take out the trash."
Bu Diu responded, "Woof!"
Su Xing walked to the nearby trash can and threw the plastic bag and bamboo skewers in.
After she came back, she opened the erhu case and picked up the bamboo flute.
She and Bu Diu had just strolled around the park for a short while, but they didn't see any elderly people playing musical instruments.
Or should she throw out a suggestion to get the ball rolling?
Should we start with the erhu, or the bamboo flute?
The little girl on the other chair craned her neck and looked curiously at Su Xing.
She suddenly spoke in a clear, crisp voice, "Sister, is that a flute?"
Su Xing turned to look at the little girl and replied with a smile, "Yes, this is a bamboo flute."
The little girl said, "Our kindergarten teacher can also play the flute, and she plays it so beautifully!"
"Wow! Your teacher is amazing! Which of your teacher's pieces is your favorite?"
"I like it when the teacher plays 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.' Sister, can you play 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star'?"
Su Xing smiled and said, "Listen to see if this is the song."
She picked up the bamboo flute and played a rhythm.
The little girl waved her hands repeatedly, "No, sister, that's not what you're playing! It's sung like this, 'Daddy, can you sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star'? No, then I'll teach you...'"
Su Xing recognized the song as the theme song of a popular parent-child variety show that had been a hit in the last two years. The song was not actually called "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"; the song title was the same as the variety show, "Where Are We Going, Dad?".
Su Xing said, "I'll give it a try."
Because of the popularity of the variety show, this song is also very popular right now. She also looked at the sheet music for this song when she was searching for sheet music online.
At the little girl's request, she began to play this song.
The little girl clapped her hands excitedly when she heard that she had played the tune correctly this time, tapped her feet to the rhythm, and even hummed along softly.
The child's mother found the scene amusing and started filming it with her phone.
She mainly filmed her own daughter, and Su Xing showed her flute, hands, and half of her profile in her videos.
This parent-child reality show is loved by both adults and children.
Some people strolling in the park couldn't help but gather around when they heard such a familiar melody.
By the time Su Xing finished playing his tune, a large crowd had already gathered nearby.
She stopped playing, and a round of applause erupted around her.
"Clap clap-!"
The little girl on the next bench was also taking pictures very diligently.
She also exclaimed to Su Xing, "Sister, you play the flute just as well as our teacher!"
Su Xing smiled and said, "Thank you."
An old man, seemingly lost in thought, stood with his hands behind his back and asked Su Xing, "Young lady, can you play any other tunes?"
Su Xing asked, "Grandpa, what would you like to hear?"
The old man raised his eyebrows. "You can play all the songs I request?"
Su Xing said, "That's not true. I only know how to play some familiar tunes."
The old man thought for a moment and said, "Then you can play 'The Butterfly Lovers' on your flute."
Su Xing agreed, "Okay."
She adjusted her posture, found her rhythm, and began to play.
After the performance of "The Butterfly Lovers" was finished, even more enthusiastic applause erupted from the surrounding area.
"That's a good boast!"
"Although I don't know much about music, I think it was played quite well."
Some people looked to Su Xing's sides and in front of him, but didn't see a bowl or an open instrument case, so they put the change they had prepared back into their pockets.
