That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 697: My things, why should you get an advantage over me?

July 17, 1987, which is the 11th day of the sixth lunar month, is a good day for: offering sacrifices, coming of age, getting married, catching fish, making nets, hunting, and fishing. Do not do anything else.

Because it was summer, it was light at five in the morning.

A group of young men who had been playing until late at night were woken up one by one by being slapped.

Then everyone was given a snack and a bowl of hot porridge. After quickly filling their stomachs, they formed a wedding procession and marched towards Wen Leyu's house like soldiers who were urgently called to the battlefield.

After leaving the hospital, Chen Xiaoling and others discovered that Li Ye did not prepare ten or eight cars, but a wedding procession consisting of two cars, two vans, a bus and a double-row 130 van.

Li Ye had attended Wen Guohua's wedding. At that time, Wen Guohua only used a few cars and the whole wedding was very simple. So when he went to marry Wen Leyu, he naturally couldn't be too extravagant or ostentatious.

But several students didn’t quite understand.

"That's not right! Yesterday I saw at least five cars parked outside the alley, why are there only two today? Isn't marriage all about appearances? How did Li Ye arrange this?"

"Yes! I saw that the two female students came by car, and they were both imported cars, but just now they got on the van. They were going to pick up the bride together anyway, so why didn't they drive to help Li Ye with the occasion?"

"It's a bit strange indeed. If Sun Xianjin was here, he would definitely guess the reason. It's a pity that guy is obsessed with Katyusha in Moscow and hasn't come back yet."

"Don't make false accusations against others! Our monitor is still at the lighthouse!"

Chen Xiaoling stopped several classmates, and then said in a deep voice: "In fact, I can guess one thing without Sun Xianjin, that is, Li Ye must pay attention to the impact and not be too ostentatious."

"Notice the impact?"

After a moment's thought, several classmates looked at Chen Xiaoling in shock.

Pu Xianghe whispered, "Are you talking about Wen Leyu from the English Department who is extraordinary?"

Chen Xiaoling nodded and said, "You'll know in a moment~"

Half an hour later, several cars drove into the COFCO compound, and Chen Xiaoling, Pu Xianghe and other classmates suddenly realized what was going on.

After all, according to the housing standards in the 1980s, a department-level apartment only had three bedrooms and a living room. Just look at Wen Leyu's house. You will immediately have the corresponding answer in your mind.

"Li Ye is a guy who hides things really well!"

"Ah~"

Chen Xiaoling sighed secretly, sighing for her best friend who was far away on the other side of the ocean.

Li Ye has been the prince charming in the eyes of his female classmates since the first day he entered Peking University. Unfortunately, this prince had already been shackled by love, which made many girls feel indignant.

As a result, everyone finally discovered that the shackles were made of gold, and no one could find the keyhole when they wanted to replace them.

How are you better than others?
Moreover, Chen Xiaoling and others could see how good Wen Leyu was to Li Ye. She was truly a gentle and considerate young wife, unlike some of the noisy X-generation who acted superior all day long and didn't look people in the eye.

But look at them now, they are a joke compared to Wen Leyu.

As a result, Chen Xiaoling and others felt a little restrained, but Jiang Xiaoyan, Li Dayong and others didn't care. They went up and started knocking on the door.

They are all students of Teacher Ke, and Teacher Ke supported them when they took the college entrance examination!

"Open the door, open the door! The groom is here to ask for marriage."

"Li Ye, this door can't be opened! Didn't you make a key in advance?"

"Hahahaha~"

According to the tradition of the flower-growing family, the wedding reception is about making it lively and festive. So even though Mr. Ke and his family are very satisfied with Li Ye, they still have to make things difficult for him, otherwise it would be too dull.

Li Ye was well prepared and had prepared a lot of red envelopes.

In the end, after just a few were stuffed in, people didn't want them anymore. It was completely different from what happened decades later.

But the sister-in-law Pan Xiaoying shouted from inside the door: "Li Ye, hurry up and recite a few love poems, otherwise this door won't open!"

"Reading poetry?"

Li Ye said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are going to embarrass me! I am a novelist, not a poet. Besides, when I went to your house to welcome the bride, there was no such part!"

Pan Xiaoying inside the door smiled and said, "Of course I know you are a novelist. If I knew you were a poet, I would have asked you to tell stories. Hurry up! Don't waste this auspicious time."

"."

Li Ye smacked his lips and turned to look at his brother-in-law behind him.

My brother-in-law Yang Yumin also stared at me with wide eyes, and said with a stifling smile: "I also write novels, but I'm not as good as you."

Li Ye blinked his eyes, and suddenly turned his head and said to the door: "Sister-in-law, Xiaoyu doesn't like me reading poetry. If you don't believe me, go ask her. I can't do something that Xiaoyu doesn't like just to get you to open the door for me."

"."

Chen Xiaoling and others behind Li Ye all laughed, because the Lone Army Literary Society, to which Li Ye belonged, had been engaged in a long-term verbal battle with a group of poets.

From Li Huaisheng to Li Ye, and to the current president Chu Yusheng, they all have conflicts with certain groups of poets who claim to be poets but have impure motives.

Wen Leyu also knows about this, and she will definitely understand Li Ye.

Pan Xiaoying actually went to ask.

When she came back, she no longer mentioned reciting poetry, but handed Li Ye a guitar through the window.

"Xiaoyu said you learned guitar from her for three years. Today I'm going to test your learning results. Hurry up and sing a love song for us. If you don't sing well, Xiaoyu won't let me open the door!"

Li Ye touched the guitar in his hand and couldn't help laughing. He had indeed learned guitar from Wen Leyu for several years, and he also collaborated with Wen Leyu on the background music of Fenghua Clothing's advertisement "Apmah".

Now whenever the catchy beat of "Apmah" is heard on the streets, everyone will think of Fenghua Clothing.

However, Li Ye's process of learning guitar was actually intermittent. Even if he was learning, it was mainly "you and I", holding hands, hugging waists, and asking the little girl to sing a song for him. Learning guitar was just a cover.

So after three years of learning guitar, Li Ye's level is only slightly above the entry level. Wen Leyu has criticized him several times for this, saying that he is not serious at all.

After all, this is one of the few areas where Wen Leyu is stronger than Li Ye. If you are not serious, how can I enjoy it?

As a result, the boomerang came and Wen Leyu was arranged to take the assessment at this time.

Li Ye thought about it for a while and asked, "Sister-in-law, go ask Xiaoyu what song she wants me to sing?"

Pan Xiaoying rolled her eyes and said with a wicked smile: "Just sing the song "Distant Place"!"

In that faraway place?
Li Ye was stunned and didn't want to sing from the bottom of his heart.

Although this song by King of the West is very famous, Li Ye felt a little uncomfortable when he put himself in the song.

His soul comes from forty years later and is different from that of people in the eighties.

I am willing to give my true heart to a good girl, but both of us must be equal. Giving up property and becoming a lamb to be whipped is not appropriate, right?

No matter what you say about art or not, Li Ye just can’t fully understand this song.

I am just an ordinary person, so I should sing some songs that ordinary people like!
Li Ye began to pluck the strings, ding-dong-donging, trying to find the tune, just like a half-baked guitarist who was cramming to familiarize himself with the repertoire before a performance. He was a little unfamiliar at first, but became more and more proficient, and the sound became more and more beautiful.

Everyone around was quiet because they had never heard this piece of music before.

[Is it a new song from Hong Kong and Taiwan? ]

[I don’t know, it sounds good! ]

After fiddling with it for five or six minutes, Li Ye finally got the hang of it, then he cleared his throat and began to play and sing formally.

"The dark clouds in the sky are as beautiful as blue velvet. I climbed mountains and crossed rivers for you, but I had no time to appreciate the scenery."

"I think you can't help yourself, every thought has a new dream, I hope you haven't forgotten, I will always protect you, no matter the wind and rain, with all my heart."

"Two people shine together, shining brighter than the stars at night. I climbed mountains and crossed rivers for you, but I had no time to appreciate the scenery.

I hope you muster up the courage to spread the message with the map of love. I hope you have not forgotten that I will always protect you, so you don’t have to wander around anymore.”

Forty years later, someone once mocked Zhang Xinzhe as a "has-been singer". At that time, Li Ye really didn't know whether that person was out of his mind or just reading the script helplessly to create a good show effect.

After all, a god coming down the mountain can easily crush a person going up the mountain.

You haven't even seen the scenery from the top of the mountain, how can you be on an equal footing with a god coming down the mountain?
His song "Love is Just One Word" is also considered by Li Ye to be one of the best love songs.

It’s not because the song is nice to listen to, but because it is filled with the boy’s cherishment for the girl and the equal view of love between both parties. It is not the kind of one-sided “kneeling and licking” at all.

The night sky when two people shine on each other is the most brilliant; the love when two people cherish each other is the most precious and lasting.

"Love is just one word. I will only say it once. You know I will only show it with actions. I promise to you for a lifetime. I am willing to try to make you happy if you stick to it."

When Li Ye sang the chorus, he was really moved.

Because ever since the time at the Erliangdian in Qingshui County, he could feel how much Wen Leyu cherished him, and until now, Wen Leyu has not changed.

"."

Li Ye sang the chorus twice in one breath before he finally vented all the emotions in his heart.

You have to know that in the nearly five years that Li Ye has been with Wen Leyu, he has never said the word "love" to Wen Leyu.

Wen Leyu never asked Li Ye once: Do you love me?
The love between two people is implicit in their hearts.

And today, I have made up for this word!
However, after Li Ye finished singing, there was no applause from the surroundings. Everyone just stared at him in a daze.

This song is still a bit ahead of its time. Both the lyrics and the melody are somewhat out of touch with 1986.

But at this moment, Wen Leyu's trembling voice suddenly sounded from the other side of the door.

"Sing it again!"

"What?"

"Sing it again and I'll open the door for you."

"Ha~"

Li Ye smiled gently and put away his guitar under the expectant gaze of everyone.

"I was going to sing this song to you alone when I got home. Are you sure you want to sing it here?"

"Open the door, open the door, sister-in-law, open the door for him quickly."

"You can't wait any longer? He might even sing other songs!"

"Why should you get a bargain with my stuff? If you don't want to listen, open the door."
