Chapter 80 Cantata
“Don’t watch TV yet, we have something important to announce.”
After dinner that day, everyone was about to turn on the TV to watch, when Lao Dou grabbed the remote control and got excited He said: "It's like this. I met Director Chen of the street today. She said that in order to commemorate the 80th birthday of the party, the street is planning to hold a large-scale art party. She asked us if we would participate. I will ask for everyone's opinions now. ."
"Do you still need to ask for opinions? Old Dou, we will definitely participate. Our Kang family is from the street art troupe. How can we not participate in this event?" The second guy said, so are the others. Agree with the second guy's opinion.
"Then I'll sign up now, hahaha." After Lao Dou said that, he was about to walk out. He happened to meet Azu coming back with Diana. Azu came in and asked: "What do you want to report, Lao Dou?" Name? ”
"To commemorate the party's birthday, will you participate?" Lao Dou asked Azu. Azu nodded on the spot and said he would participate, and even Diana wanted to participate, saying that her uncle was also a party member.
Ayao smiled and said: "With international friends participating, we will definitely attract attention."
Lao Dou went out to the street to sign up. When everyone was about to turn on the TV, Boss Guang came out to stop everyone again. He said: "Stop watching TV now and think about what kind of show we are going to do."
"Do you want to do Cantonese opera?" The old lady said: "There are so many people in our family. "Sou Shuyuan" is enough."
"Oh, Mom, only you and Lao Dou can sing Cantonese opera. How can we sing it?" The second brother didn't agree to sing Cantonese opera. There are many people, but only two of them can sing.
Yumi stood up and twisted her body and said: "How about we dance a little bit?"
The second sister-in-law quickly pushed Yumi back to her seat, and Xianglan said next to her: "No, you want to Let mom and dad dance hard, and their waists will be bent."
"I have a good suggestion." Ayao raised his hand and said, "How about we sing together? With so many family members, it will be difficult to be impressive when you go on stage. "Ayao's suggestion was indeed good, and everyone agreed, but there was another dispute over what song to sing.
In the end, we fought over and over to select "Into the New Era" sung by Zhang Ye.
“I always want to confess to you,”
"How heroic I feel."
"I always want to talk to you,"
"How much I love life."
"Lead us into that place A new era,”
“Hold the flag high to create the future”
On the evening of June 20, everyone in the Kang family began their first joint training after several days of individual training. After singing the whole song, Ayao couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's great. I didn't expect that everyone could sing so well after practicing for such a short time. Our Kang family members have much better musical abilities than the people in our unit."
"I would like to ask if you have any opinions on singing this way?" Lao Dou is also very satisfied with the effect of the chorus.
Everyone said they had no objection and just sang it like this. But Yumi quit. She raised her hand and said, "I have an opinion." Kang Qirui frowned, but he knew that if one person has an opinion, everyone will have an opinion. He didn't want to be like the original story line, where things fell apart at the end when he made suggestions. He didn't want to mess around.
So Kang Qirui said before Lao Dou: "Objection is futile, the minority obeys the majority. That's it, let's sing like this." Yumei was unconvinced and said coquettishly: "Brother Ah Rui."< br>
Kang Qirui interrupted her, "The appeal failed and the original verdict is upheld."
"Oh, Rui, don't be like this. We welcome everyone's opinions." Lao Dou waved his hand and said to Yumei: "Yumi, just tell me what you have to say. Kang Bo supports you." Yumei was overjoyed when she heard this. Completely unaware that Kang Qirui kept telling her to shut up, she said cheerfully: "I think the chorus is too monotonous, why not add a lead singer."
"Miss Yumei, we are now This is a group activity, not an individual one." The second sister-in-law knew what Yumi was thinking and said it directly.
After Yumei was told that her thoughts were revealed, she was not embarrassed. Instead, she argued: "I am not trying to highlight myself, this is for the quality of the program."
"I support it too" A Yaogang He was stopped by Sachiko as soon as he started. He looked at Sachiko and wondered why he didn't let him finish. Sachiko pointed Ayao to look at Kang Qirui's face. Kang Qirui's whole face turned dark, and he obviously disagreed very much. Yumi's approach. After Ayao understood, he "coughed" twice to resolve the embarrassment, but still didn't finish the sentence.
"I think it's better for everyone to sing together. It's a group activity where everyone can be happy and lively. As for the quality of the program, none of us are professional, and the lead singer may not be that good," Kang Qirui said.
"Old Dou, of course you can raise your opinions, but you can't just accept them just because you raise them. What do you think about it, so everyone decides by voting?" Kang Qirui continued.
After hearing this, Lao Dou thought it made sense, so he said to everyone: "Other than Yumei, is there anyone else who agrees to sing as the lead singer?"
Yumi begged everyone to agree to sing as the lead singer with gentle eyes. , Kang Qirui’s sharp eyes were so powerful that everyone opposed the lead singer. In the end, Kang Qirui won. No one agreed with Mei's proposal to lead the singing, and they still maintained the original chorus mode.
After the drill, everyone returned to their rooms. Zhu Wanling asked: "Why did you have such a big opinion about the lead singer just now? I think Yumi is almost crying."
"Hey, it's not like you don't know the personalities of our family members." Kang Qirui said helplessly: "If we agree to let Yumei take the lead in singing, others will be willing for her to be in the limelight alone, and then everyone's opinions will come. This one said to add a recitation, and the other said to add a sketch."
Zhu Wanling was amused by Kang Qirui's words, she patted Kang Qirui and said with a smile, "How could you not be there. Is that so outrageous? Are you thinking too much?”
Kang Qirui rolled his eyes, there are even more outrageous things. He continued: "Think about it, our Kang family is attending a party, she stands in the front and leads the singing alone, and our whole family stands in the back and harmonizes. What is this? Do you have any objections?"
Zhu Wanling nodded. , said: "That's the truth. But people may not accept your kindness. They may be scolding you behind your back this time." Kang Qirui shook his head, he didn't care about this. He just didn't want to go through so much trouble, and it would be nice to just have a lively chorus like this.
"Cousin, cousin-in-law, why don't you even support me?" Yumi came to Ayao Sachiko's room and cried.
Ayao quickly brushed himself off, "I originally wanted to support you, but your cousin didn't let me say it." Yumei burst into tears when she heard this. Even her closest cousin stabbed her in the back. She was heartbroken.
"Okay, don't cry." Sachiko poked Yumi in the head with her finger and said, "My head is full of the idea of being in the limelight, and I don't even know what kind of activity it is."
Yumi was unconvinced, "What's wrong?"
"This is a family activity. Do you understand family activities? Are you a member of the Kang family? Who would be happy if you took the limelight?" Sachiko explained: "Even if It’s dad, even if he supports you as the lead singer now, when you go on stage to perform, you will take all the limelight, and he will not be able to see it at all. Do you think he will be happy then? "
Ayao suddenly realized, Finally, he understood why Sachiko held him back just now and refused to let him support Yumi in singing the lead. He also understands Lao Dou's character very well. If the limelight of the Kang family's show is completely lost to Yumei, Lao Dou will definitely not be happy or happy, and the consequences will be terrible when he thinks about it.
On the night of the cultural gala, the Kang family's "Into the New Era" was greeted with applause from the whole house. They did sing very well, and the quality of the program was not bad. Among the several chorus programs that night, they received the loudest applause. After Yumi was scolded by Sachiko that day, she also knew that her thoughts were somewhat inappropriate. She had been wanting to apologize to Kang Qirui for the past few days, but she didn't dare.
Now that the performance was over, she saw that Kang Qirui was very happy, so she stepped forward and said, "Brother Ari, I'm sorry, my idea was really inappropriate that day."
Kang Qirui He didn't care at all, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, just like what Lao Dou said, everyone is welcome to give their opinions. No need to apologize, let's go and have a midnight snack together to celebrate."
