Marry a female star at a bargain price

Chapter 146 145. Everything is the best arrangement
At 10:, the results of the fourth episode of "Singer" were announced.

The song "Legend" helped Han Xixi win the second place in this competition.

Combining the votes from the previous round, her total votes reached third place, and she successfully kicked the door.

She also became the first singer to successfully challenge the host in this season's program, and is also the youngest singer to appear on the show in the entire ten seasons of "Singer".

As soon as the result was announced, the barrage section immediately boiled over.

“Xixi is worth it!!”

"As soon as I heard the prelude, I knew it was a sure thing!"

"This kind of ethereal singing style is not our Xixi's comfort zone, but Xixi's dominant zone!"

"I have to say that Han Xixi got a lot of credit from this song, and Teacher Ma Yao got a big score!"

"I am becoming more and more curious about who this Ma Yao is. He is so awesome!"

"Ma Yao is truly our Xibao's benefactor!!"

"Han Xixi is always popular!!"

"..."

now.

Anyang County, Linjia Village.

Lin Xiao was lying in bed, already extremely sleepy.

But he still kept his eyes open, and only felt relieved when he heard Han Xixi was announced as the winner.

I knew Xixi still had to be interviewed at the TV station, and I didn’t know when it would end, so I didn’t plan to wait for her.

Put down your phone and get ready for bed.

I just lay down and suddenly remembered something important.

I opened Douyin and scrolled through it randomly, and sure enough, I saw the footage of Han Xixi on the stage of "Singer", and there was also the full version.

He downloaded it and sent it to Leng Tao.

Then leave a comment: "I think this song is pretty good, it looks like it will be a big hit! Try using it as background music for that short video. I think it fits the overall feeling well and can also help to spread the popularity. Maybe it will have a good spread effect!"

On the other side, Leng Tao had just finished watching the live broadcast of "Singer".

When I heard Han Xixi's song "Legend", I felt clear-headed and open-minded. I felt that this soul-cleansing feeling went very well with his newly shot landscape short video.

He was planning to report to Deputy Mayor Lin to see if this song could be used as the background music.

Unexpectedly, before the message was sent, Lin Xiao’s voice message came.

Leng Tao suddenly felt strange.

I didn’t expect that Lin Zhen and I would think the same thing. It’s really fate that brings us together…呸呸呸呸!

"Okay, Lin Zhen, I'll add the music right away!" Leng Tao replied.

Lin Xiao said: "Don't worry, just give it to me tomorrow!"

Mainly because I’m sleepy and I’m going to bed now!
After communicating with Leng Tao, he put down his phone and fell asleep quickly.

The next morning, I was woken up by the clanging sounds of renovations downstairs. I looked at the time and it was only half past seven.

This is the bad thing about rural areas.

There is no time limit for renovation of self-built houses, no distinction between weekdays and weekends, and there will be no neighbors to complain.

Lin Xiao sat on the bed with a head of weeds, his head feeling like paste.

Suddenly I regretted: I was bored, why did I bring up the renovation...

At this time, WeChat made a "ding dong" sound.

Leng Tao sent a message saying that the final version of the promotional short video was ready.

The video was then loaded and appeared on his phone, showing a bright yellow rapeseed field with a title added.

——"A Small Town That's Not a Legend"!
Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows and did not comment.

When you click on it, the silky prelude of "Legend" flows out.

The quiet and peaceful feeling is completely different from the noisy sounds of renovation downstairs, giving people a wonderful feeling of an unexpected collision between dreams and reality.

The style of the whole song and the video also match well.

After Lin Xiao read it, he replied to Leng Tao and said it was okay, and asked him to contact the propaganda officer Zhou Baoping.

In the past few days, Chaobai Town’s WeChat video account and Douyin account have been registered, and now we are just waiting for the dishes to be served!

Lin Xiao has always believed that good wine needs no bush!
But these days, if the wine is really good, there is no need to hide it deep in the alley.

Wouldn't it be better to sell it openly?

Especially, "Legend" was written by myself and sung by my wife, so it would be a waste not to take advantage of my wife's popularity!

Lin Xiao had a hunch that this short video would become a minor hit and attract the first wave of tourists for Chaobai Town's tourism industry.

……

Communicate well with Leng Tao.

Lin Xiao was planning to take a nap, but just as he lay down, WeChat rang again.

This time it was Han Xixi who asked him if he had gotten up.

His eyes lit up, he sat up, and made a video call directly.

Got connected quickly.

"Good morning, Xixi~" he said with a smile.

"Good morning, brother~"

Xixi was still lying on the bed, looking dazed. This scene made Lin Xiao imagine a lot.

Before, Han Xixi tried very hard to maintain her image in front of him. She was always neat and tidy when they met. Even if they were forced to sleep in the same room, she would always get up before him and would not let him see her sleepy and disheveled.

Now... Nizi seemed to have agreed that she could show him her true nature.

"Little lazy cat, why aren't you getting up yet?" Lin Xiao asked with a smile.

Han Xixi was still dazed: "I slept late last night... didn't you get up too?"

Lin Xiao smiled without saying anything, looking at the little rabbit on the screen calmly and gently. The more he looked, the more he liked her... He wanted to bully her severely on the bed!

Han Xixi felt shy when he looked at her, so she buried her head in the quilt and didn't come out until a while later.

"Are you going to record 'Happy Saturday' soon?" Lin Xiao asked, changing the subject.

"Yup!"

"Oh, then remember to eat breakfast!"

Lin Xiao instructed earnestly, "This kind of program takes a long time to record. If everything goes well, it will take a whole morning, and if it doesn't go well, it may take a whole day. You have to stand all the time, and you may just have a quick bite for lunch, so you must eat a full meal in the morning, understand?"

Han Xixi nodded blankly, not knowing for a moment whether he was an artist or he was an artist.

"Brother, how do you know so much?" she asked puzzled.

"Well... since I married a celebrity, I have to pay more attention to things like this!" Lin Xiao explained.

These words made Han Xixi blush again, and she felt shy and happy, and she hid half of her face in the quilt.

Seeing that she was embarrassed, Lin Xiao changed the subject again: "Oh, by the way, your song "Legend" was released on Penguin Music at midnight today. I just took a look and found that the number of collections has exceeded 50. It has topped the new song charts overnight... Han Xixi, you are getting more and more amazing!"

Han Xixi was not happy about it, and said shyly with her lips pursed: "All the songs written by my brother are good..."

Lin Xiao hurriedly said: "A good song needs someone to sing it. Why don't you try Liu Jia's loud voice? He will turn "Legend" into "MLM" for you!"

Han Xixi was amused and laughed.

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Your performance is beyond doubt, don't be embarrassed! If your performance wasn't really good, you wouldn't have been able to succeed, right?"

Han Xixi then nodded embarrassedly.

With the corners of his mouth raised, he smiled like the sun.

Suddenly remembering something, she asked, "Brother, why did you think of writing such a song? I have been busy recording songs these days, and you are busy too, so I don't have time to ask you!"

Lin Xiao was caught off guard by the question and asked instead, "What kind of song do you think this is?"

Han Xixi thought for a moment and said seriously, "Broad and accessible, it's like a wise man's perception of life, expressing a life outlook that sees through the mundane world, telling people to cherish time and everything they have... Hmm!"

Han Xixi became more relieved as he spoke, and his expression was as determined as if he was determined to join the party.

The more Lin Xiao listened, the more his brows furrowed.

I clearly wrote this song to confess my feelings, but after Xixi's explanation, it seems like I want to become a monk?
"No, how did you know that you have to 'see through the world'?" Lin Xiao looked puzzled.

"Well...that's the feeling!" Han Xixi couldn't put it into words.

"What a bullshit, I'm just writing about love!"

Lin Xiao counted on his fingers, "Look at the lyrics. Just because I saw you one more time in the crowd, I can never forget your face. When I miss you, you are in the sky. When I miss you, you are by my side. We had an appointment in the previous life, and it is a love story in this life... Isn't it obvious? Why did you bring it up to seeing through the world?"

Han Xixi was a little surprised when she heard his anxious tone.

But he still said seriously: "Isn't the 'you' in this lyric a pseudonym, referring to all the beautiful things in life, referring to the nostalgia and longing for the world... isn't it?"

Lin Xiao was choked for a moment. He didn't expect Han Xixi to have such a biased idea.

I was thinking, do you poor students always have such strange angles when doing reading comprehension?

"Isn't it?" She became uncertain when she saw Lin Xiao's expression.

"Of course not, 'you' means 'you'!"

"I?"

Han Xixi pointed at himself.

Lin Xiao was speechless: "Yes, this song is written especially for you!"

After hearing this, the little girl should understand, right?

This can be considered a confession!
Lin Xiao observed Han Xixi's reaction curiously, but he saw that the face in the video did not show the joy of being confessed. Instead, her brows were frowned, gloomy, and even a little disappointed.

"Uh... I misunderstood!" Han Xixi was embarrassed. Lin Xiao was even more embarrassed: "Don't blame you, blame me for writing a weird song!"

Han Xixi: “…”

The two were silent.

Lin Xiao suddenly came to his senses. Xixi sang so ethereal on the stage last night, probably because she didn’t regard it as a love song!
If it were really sung as a love song, it might not be so shocking.

So now, it can be said that there are some mistakes in this regard?

Han Xixi said seriously, "Actually, when I first read the lyrics, I also thought it was a love song! But then I thought, you are a talented Chinese major, so the lyrics you wrote would definitely not be so popular and straightforward. There must be a lot of metaphors, just like the first song you wrote for me, "Human World"!"

Han Xixi had a determined face like a poor student who needs to work harder. "That time, I misunderstood 'Human World' as a love song. It was only after you analyzed it for me for a long time that I realized I had misunderstood it. This time, I learned from my experience and put a lot of effort into analyzing the lyrics. But now you're telling me that I misunderstood it and that it's just an ordinary love song?"

Han Xixi said this with a look of doubt on his face.

Lin Xiao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

What’s going on now? The poor student finally got it right, but then he doesn’t believe in himself and changes it back to the wrong one?
Han Xixi still refused to admit defeat and continued to present evidence: "And look at the first line of the lyrics, it was just because I took one more look at you in the crowd!
"You probably met me for the first time at my house, not in a crowd... When I saw this sentence, I knew it wasn't written for me, so I thought of so many things!"

"..."

Lin Xiao was speechless. He had really shot himself in the foot!

……

I chatted with Han Xixi for more than half an hour.

Lin Xiao finally made it clear that the song "Legend" was written for her, as a way of expressing his feelings to her.

But after this misunderstanding, the mood is no longer the same.

Han Xixi did not feel the joy of being confessed to, and Lin Xiao also felt that the atmosphere was not right.

So let’s quickly end this embarrassing topic.

Hang up video.

Lin Xiao couldn't sleep either, mainly because it was very noisy downstairs, so he got up and went to the kitchen to have breakfast.

My parents were also there, and they suddenly mentioned their niece who married to Yizhou, Lin Xiao's eldest cousin. She called them two days ago to invite them to visit and said she would take them to visit Yuehua Mountain, the most famous mountain in Yizhou.

Lin Xiao said, "Then go ahead. Anyway, I've quit my job now, so it's a good time to go out and have some fun!"

Zhou Xiuping said hurriedly: "Where is the time? The house is still under renovation, so I have to keep an eye on it."

Lin Xiao said, "The masters were all introduced by acquaintances. I see they work very carefully, so there's no need to watch them every day. It just so happens that I'm free today, so I'll drive you there. Let's go right away, let's go now, and have some fun and come back!"

Zhou Xiuping and Lin Jianping looked at each other in surprise, realizing that he was serious!

After repeated confirmation, he went to the room to pack his things in panic and excitement, and went upstairs to greet the foreman.

Then I got in the car.

The neighbor asked, "What are you three doing?"

Just as Lin Xiao was about to reply, Zhou Xiuping spoke first, with a proud and proud face, and shouted at the top of her voice: "Let's go to Yizhou to play. I said I didn't want to go, but Lin Xiao insisted on taking us there, saying that we wanted to go on a spontaneous trip... Oh, he is so busy with work during the week, and he doesn't even take a break on weekends, and he still wants to take us out for a trip. It's really... I won't say anymore, let's go!"

After getting on the car, he kept greeting the villagers, and his shouts were heard by the whole village.

She didn't turn her head back from the car window until she was on the main road.

Lin Xiao felt amused and helpless.

My mother's excitement was beyond words, and although my father didn't say anything, he was sitting in the passenger seat with his eyes full of anticipation.

Lin Xiao suggested going out to play, of course, with selfish motives.

On the one hand, I wanted to investigate the development and supporting facilities of other scenic spots. On the other hand, I couldn't stand the noisy decoration at home, so I came up with this idea based on the topic.

Unexpectedly, his parents' reactions were much more excited than he thought.

It’s just like elementary school students being suddenly told to go on a spring outing!
He couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He had never taken his parents out for a trip after so many years of graduation.

Of course it was mentioned before, but they were very busy at the construction site and the factory, and they were always thinking about making and saving money, so every time the idea of ​​going out to play came up, he would shake his head like a rattle, not letting Lin Xiao say a second word.

Of course, Lin Xiao never acted tough. He always felt that there was no need to rush about this kind of thing and there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Now, the opportunity has come.

Fortunately it’s not too late!

The car got on the highway and arrived in Yizhou an hour and a half later.

Yuehua Mountain is just on the outskirts of Yizhou City, and Lin Xiao navigated directly to the foot of the mountain.

I parked the car, bought tickets, and then took my parents to start climbing the mountain.

Only then did he realize that his mother had deliberately changed into a red sweater that she rarely wore before going out, which made her look a lot younger.

When he looked at her, my mother felt a little embarrassed.

Lin Xiao saw through the situation but didn't say anything, and led them up the mountain.

The old couple were really happy.

Zhou Xiuping kept sighing: "This road is really well built... The flowers are so beautiful... This pavilion is built like an ancient one... There is even a small shop on the mountain... What, a sausage for ten yuan, why don't you go and grab it..."

If she had been so nagging normally, Lin Jianping would have stayed away from her or just told her to shut up.

But today, he was patient, which was unusual for him, and responded to every word his wife said.

"Yeah, it's good... it looks good... it must be expensive in the mountains, and it takes a lot of effort to carry it up here..."

Lin Xiao followed slowly behind.

Listening to my parents chatting, I suddenly felt that this is what a peaceful life is like.

Over the years, I have recalled my past life less and less frequently, unlike the first few years after I traveled through time, when I often woke up from nightmares in the middle of the night. After waking up, I would be in a daze for a long time, not knowing whether I was on Earth or on the Blue Planet.

He once asked himself seriously, which is better, a top-tier life with a net worth of over 100 million but living a lonely life like a walking corpse, or an ordinary young man's life who is not rich but not poor, and has a healthy family?
He never came up with an answer.

Because fate did not let him choose, but sent him here directly.

It was not until this moment that he vaguely realized that his life now seemed really good.

Have healthy parents and a harmonious family.

Have a career that you can strive for your whole life.

There is also a wife who I cannot see every day but comes to my door unexpectedly.

Well...it's really good!
"Mom and Dad, let me take a picture of you!"

Walking to an observation deck, Lin Xiao took the initiative to propose.

Zhou Xiuping and Lin Jianping were still a little embarrassed, but after he kept encouraging them, they finally stood in front of the observation deck.

After he adjusted their positions for a long time, the couple finally looked less like they were in prison and instead showed the relaxation and smiles of a tourist.

Afterwards, taking photos became smoother and smoother.

Lin Xiao's phone was about to run out of battery, but his mother was still posing, with a scarf in her heart, though there was no scarf in her hands.

After a morning, Lin Xiao was exhausted.

The family of three had just reached the halfway point of the mountain and there happened to be a farm restaurant on the side of the road. Lin Xiao suggested going there for dinner.

But they didn't expect that when they went in, they found that a plate of fried shredded potatoes cost 28 yuan, and a plate of hand-shredded cabbage cost 30 yuan. The couple was so scared that they hid away as if they were avoiding a bomb, and Lin Xiao couldn't stop them.

Finally, we had lunch by eating instant noodles in the rest area.

Even so, the old couple complained for a long time about the high price of instant noodles, costing 10 yuan a bucket!
Lin Xiao had given up arguing and secretly added a sausage to himself and didn't give it to them!
After resting for a while, we returned the same way.

The way down the mountain was no easier than going up, but the old couple was still very comfortable and their interest was not diminished at all.

Lin Xiao, on the other hand, looked at the mountains and the scenery, and gave a very average evaluation of this most famous scenic spot in Yizhou.

It was already five o'clock when the family of three returned to the car.

Zhou Xiuping forced her way into the city and found a small, unremarkable stir-fry restaurant to have dinner.

The three of us spent 68 and had a full meal.

Then we returned.

On the way, Lin Xiao asked: "Mom and Dad, what do you think of Yuehua Mountain? Is it fun?"

Zhou Xiuping looked excited: "It's fun, of course it's fun, aren't you happy to be out playing?"

Lin Xiao knew that his mother had misunderstood him, so he quickly explained: "Don't just praise me, tell me about my shortcomings. If I build a tourist attraction in Chaobai Town in the future, I can learn from it!"

The old couple finally understood and started to think about it seriously.

Zhou Xiuping said first: "As for the disadvantages... there are few toilets, and they are smelly! From the bottom of the mountain to the top, there are only three toilets in total, and they are messy and smelly. It doesn't look like a scenic spot at all!"

Lin Jianping answered, saying simply: "The things are expensive!"

Zhou Xiuping quickly replied, "Yes, yes, it's too expensive. Even if it's not easy to transport it up the mountain, it can't be more than twice as expensive as outside. Can't you sell 5 yuan instant noodles for 8 yuan?"

Lin Xiao nodded: "Anything else?"

Inspired by him, the old couple started to think and, based on the principle of finding fault with everything, told him all the bad experiences they had today.

To sum it up: it is too commercial, the service staff have bad attitudes, things are expensive, toilets are dirty, etc.

The summary is similar to Lin Xiao’s.

However, since it is a scenic spot on the mountain, it is still different from the rural tourism that Chaobai Town wants to develop, but the problems found are still very instructive.

The trip was considered a great success.

His parents were satisfied and he also gained something... except for one person!

It was almost eight o'clock when the family of three returned home.

Lin Yu came back from school and sat on the first floor. He was so angry that both sides of his face were puffed up as if they were stuffed with firecrackers.

Anyang No. 1 Middle School has only one day off per day, with students finishing school at 5 p.m. every Saturday and returning to school on Sunday night.

When Lin Yu returned home from school, he found his house empty. After asking the decorator, he learned that his parents and brother had gone out traveling.

I was completely confused!
I called my mother and the reply I got was: We are on the way, make some food for yourself!
His tone was casual, and he didn't feel guilty at all for abandoning his young son!
Lin Yu was stunned, thinking: No, I was picked up? !
