Chapter 112 What’s in the HeartJiang Congwen came out of the airport wearing a floral shirt, sunglasses, and pulling a suitcase. Chen Mo spotted this show-off immediately and waved, "Here." Hearing the voice, Jiang Congwen turned around, saw Chen Mo, and walked over quickly. "Go, go, go, don't let anyone recognize us." Jiang Congwen said, looking around. Chen Mo was speechless. "You are wearing something so conspicuous. Are you afraid that others won't recognize you?" "Ahem." Jiang Congwen's thoughts were exposed, and he coughed lightly in embarrassment, "I was thinking that if there were fans to pick me up at the airport, I would have to pay attention to my image." "What are they picking up at the airport? Normally, if the itinerary is not revealed in advance, there won't be so many fans picking them up at the airport." Chen Mo complained. Some fans pick up artists at the airport, perhaps because the artists are going to attend an event, and the fans learned about the itinerary through the organizer’s publicity, so they wait at the airport. There were also some fans who picked up the actors at the airport, just to create hype and attract attention. Some are from management companies, who reveal the artist’s schedule to fans in advance; some simply hire people to pick up the artist, creating the illusion of being very popular.
It’s just a normal and low-key trip, why would there be so much trouble? Even if they are occasionally recognized by passers-by and fans, most people are still rational and will not cause exaggerated airport congestion. "What if? What if?" Jiang Congwen did not give up. "You don't make a living by your looks, so why would you worry about so many things?" Chen Mo didn't bother to pay attention. "Let's go, get in the car." As Jiang Congwen got into the car, he muttered, "It must be because this is just a small place. Someone still recognized me at the Capital Airport." A convertible sports car drove along the coastline of Erhai Lake towards Yunmiao Village. Along the way, the sky was high and the sea was vast, the blue was endless, and the scenery was endless. "Wow~~" Jiang Congwen felt the wind of freedom, raised his hands high and shouted happily. Chen Mo also had a smile on his face, feeling happy. I have been here for so long, but I never get tired of the beautiful scenery. Chen Mo took Jiang Congwen back to the courtyard. When Da Mai left, a room was vacated. Originally, Chen Mo wanted to book a room for Jiang Congwen in another B&B in the town, because the minimum rental period for Youfeng Courtyard was three months, and it was obviously impossible for Jiang Congwen to stay that long. This time Jiang Congwen will only come to play for three days. When a few people were chatting that night, Xie Zhiyao learned about this and said that the room vacated by Damai had not been booked yet, so they could just stay in the courtyard and the rent would be calculated on a daily basis. After hearing this, Chen Mo thought it was a good idea. The price of daily rental would definitely be higher than that of short-term rental, which was reasonable. The main reason is that everyone is familiar with the courtyard, Jiang Congwen is now somewhat famous, and there are no hotels with good privacy near the village, so the courtyard is really the most suitable. "Hello, two beauties, long time no see, I missed you so much." A voice came from the door. Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing, who were preparing lunch, looked up and saw a familiar smiling face. Chen Nanxing smiled and said, "Old Jiang, you've changed a lot."
Xu Hongdou also smiled and joked, "Big star, I can't recognize you." "Keep a low profile." Although Jiang Congwen said this, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. "When I saw you two, I knew the food here was good." "Go to hell." Chen Nanxing understood what he meant and rolled his eyes. "Is it so obvious?" Xu Hongdou touched her face. Chen Mo also said this when he was carrying her on his back a few days ago. Has she really gained weight? "No, health is beauty." Chen Mo said immediately and kicked Jiang Congwen. "I was just kidding." Jiang Congwen laughed quickly. "I feel like you two are both more radiant now than when you were in BJ." What Jiang Congwen said is true. Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing now look like they have completely different spirits. Beautiful mountains and rivers do nourish people. Xu Hongdou didn't worry about it because she already had a boyfriend. "You two can wash your hands and eat soon." Xu Hongdou said. "Okay, I'll take him and put his luggage down first." Chen Mo took Jiang Congwen to identify the room and gave a brief introduction to the courtyard. Several people sat down to eat. “It’s nice here, quiet and comfortable.” This is Jiang Congwen's feeling after walking all the way in from the village entrance and seeing the courtyard. "Really? That's great, you can stay a few more days." Chen Nanxing said with a smile. Jiang Congwen smiled and said, "If I were a host before, I could really come here and stay for a while." "There's nothing I can do now. I have work arrangements later." Chen Nanxing nodded. She also knew Jiang Congwen's situation. If he had a career, he would definitely pursue it. "Hongdou and I have never missed an episode of your show." Xu Hongdou nodded and smiled, "The only thing we follow here is your show. We watch it on time every week." Jiang Congwen cupped his hands and said, "Thank you both for your support. Half of the credit for my advancement to the finals goes to you two." The show "I Am the King of Singers" is coming to an end. The final will be held next week and will be broadcast live. What will be aired this week is a resurrection match for the previously eliminated contestants. The contestants who have already qualified do not need to participate in the recording. That's why Jiang Congwen had time to come here and play for two days.
Chen Nanxing curled his lips when he heard this, "Does it have to be so fake?" Just because they watch a show, half the credit goes to them? "I'm telling the truth." Jiang Congwen explained seriously. "I was able to gain a foothold in the show because of the two new songs in the first two episodes, so half of the credit goes to Chen Mo." "Chen Mo's is Hongdou's. Hongdou's can be shared with you, my best friend. Then the credit is naturally equal to half of both of you. Is that okay?" Xu Hongdou was amused by this "far-fetched" logical argument. Chen Nanxing was speechless, "Can you say something more?" "Isn't it funny?" Jiang Congwen wondered. Chen Nanxing shook his head and sighed, "Lao Jiang, you don't do live broadcasts now, and you have lost your sense of humor." "Really?" Jiang Congwen scratched his head. "Yeah." Chen Nanxing nodded affirmatively. "Then I'll think of another one." "No, if you keep telling this joke, the food will get cold." “Stir-fried rice is also delicious.” "hehe." At the dinner table, a few people were chatting idly, and the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. People are never better than old; clothes are never better than new. Although the joke is not very funny, the occasional reunion of old friends is the happiest thing in the world. In the afternoon, Chen Nanxing took Jiang Congwen for a stroll in the village. Along the way, Jiang Congwen saw Chen Nanxing greeting many people in the village in a familiar manner. "Thank you grandma, are you setting up a stall?" "Correct." "Then please go slower." "It's okay. I can walk this route with my eyes closed." "Uncle Chang, are you feeling better?" "It's okay now." "Please be careful and don't get too tired." "Hey, good." "Aunt Gui, where are you going?"
"I'm going to help out at Ayao's warehouse." "You want to chat with Aunt Baoping and Aunt Feng, right?" "I chat but my hands are not idle." "Don't let Xiaoyue accuse you of disturbing their work again." "I'm just helping, okay?" "Okay, then drive your tricycle slower." "Don't worry, it's very stable." Aunt Agui was about to leave on her electric tricycle, but suddenly stopped and backed up. "What's wrong? Aunt Agui." Chen Nanxing asked curiously. "Does this young man look unfamiliar?" Aunt Agui glanced at Jiang Congwen. "Oh, this is my friend. He just arrived today and also lives in our courtyard." Chen Nanxing introduced Jiang Congwen: "This is Aunt Agui, who is in charge of cleaning the courtyard and is also the landlord." "Aunt Agui." Jiang Congwen greeted her with a smile. "Is he your girlfriend?" Aunt Agui became interested. Chen Nanxing smiled and explained, "No, he just came here to play and will leave after a few days." "Did he come here specially to see you?" Aunt Agui understood. She understands the thoughts of young people. Otherwise, the minimum rent for the courtyard is three months, so how can I stay there for a few days? Chen Nanxing didn't hear anything else, "Not only me, but also Chen Mo and Hongdou. We are all friends." "I understand." Aunt Agui nodded. They are a pair, and you are a pair. "Okay, I won't bother you young people anymore. I'm leaving." After understanding the situation, Aunt Agui did not stay and drove away in a hurry on her electric tricycle. Chen Nanxing didn't worry about it. "Let's go. I'll take you to the wood carving workshop." Jiang Congwen nodded, "Okay." It was just a small episode, and neither of them paid any attention to it. "You are familiar with the people here?" "The village is not big. I've been here for so long, and I see people here every day. I'm familiar with them naturally." In the evening, several people sat around the fire. "Come, on behalf of our small courtyard, I would like to welcome new friends." Hu Youyu raised his glass and said.
"Teacher Hu, who else do you represent?" Chen Nanxing joked. "Master Ma and Da Mai are gone, Nana will be back soon, and we are all here, so no one in the courtyard needs you to represent us." Hu Youyu thought about it and said, "Well, I will just represent myself and welcome new friends." "Thank you." Jiang Congwen raised his glass and clinked it with Hu Youyu. After taking a sip, Jiang Congwen asked, "I heard from Chen Mo that Lao Hu, you are also a musician?" "I'm ashamed that I haven't made a name for myself." Hu Youyu waved his hand. Jiang Congwen is much more successful than him now, so he is too embarrassed to talk about his situation. Chen Mo focuses on creation and is low-key, so Hu Youyu's feelings are not obvious. But Jiang Congwen is a rising star in the music scene this year. He already has many representative works and is currently active on the hottest music programs. The two are about the same age, so Hu Youyu inevitably feels a sense of disappointment. If he could do this, he would probably be able to go home with dignity. "Hey, I just made it this year. I was singing in the live studio for the past few years." Jiang Congwen also went through hard times and did not have a self-righteous mentality. Whether you can make it through is not only a matter of strength, sometimes it also requires some opportunities and luck. "Didn't I hear from Chen Mo that you wrote a pretty good song? I still haven't written any decent songs myself." Hu Youyu shook his head. "It was just a fluke, not worth mentioning." Jiang Congwen laughed and scolded: "Good fellow, you are pretending to be me, come and sing for me." Hu Youyu said "reluctantly": "If that's the case, then I'll show off my ugliness." Chen Mo shook his head and smiled. Although Lao Hu was sometimes pretentious, he still had a good attitude. A few of them drank the cherry wine that Xie Zhiyao brought over a few days ago and listened to the song quietly. After Hu Youyu sang "Wind", Jiang Congwen and Chen Mo also sang one. Chen Mo also accompanied Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing, and the two sang a song together. When friends get together, there is no need to be too particular. Just sing whatever comes to mind. It doesn’t matter whether the song sounds good or not. The most important thing is to have fun. While everyone was laughing and chatting, Nana came back. Hu Youyu called out, "Nana, come quickly, we're the only one missing, let's sing a song together." "Wow, are you guys so lively?" Nana walked closer. "Nana, sit here." Chen Nanxing patted the chair beside him. "it is good."
"Nana-chan?" Jiang Congwen looked at her and asked uncertainly. Nana turned around and was also stunned, "Lao Wen?" "It's really you, why are you here?" Jiang Congwen said with a smile. "Do you know each other?" Chen Nanxing asked curiously. "I guess we know each other." Jiang Congwen explained. "We've played PK before during live broadcasts, but this is the first time I've seen a real person." Nana’s live broadcast ID is “Nana who loves singing”, and Jiang Congwen’s live broadcast ID is “Arts and science are inseparable”. When Nana heard Jiang Congwen mention his live broadcast, she suddenly became a little flustered. "Nana, have you done live broadcasts before? Why haven't I heard you talk about it?" Chen Nanxing asked curiously. "Ah, that was a thing of the past. There's nothing much to say." Nana smiled unnaturally. "Nana, what's wrong with you?" Xu Hongdou sensed something was wrong. "Nothing." Nana made up an excuse to cover up. "Today there are quite a lot of people in the restaurant. I'm a little tired and want to go back and rest first." "okay." Xu Hongdou saw that Nana was not in a good condition and reminded her, "If you feel uncomfortable, remember to tell us, don't force yourself." "Okay, I will." Nana responded and hurried back to her room. "What happened suddenly? He was fine when he came in." Hu Youyu scratched his head, confused. Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing also looked at each other and felt a little strange. Jiang Congwen remembered something and seemed to be thinking about something. late at night. Chen Mo and Xu Hongdou lay on the bed hugging each other. "Am I really a little fat?" Xu Hongdou suddenly asked. "Haha." Chen Mo couldn't help laughing when he heard that. It seems that Xu Hongdou still remembers the joke Jiang Congwen made during the day. Chen Mo felt that it was mainly because of what he said when he was carrying Xu Hongdou on his back a few days ago that caused Xu Hongdou to be a little concerned now. "What are you laughing at? Don't laugh!" Xu Hongdou lay on Chen Mo's chest and covered Chen Mo's mouth with her hand. "Don't laugh anymore." Chen Mo said vaguely.
"Don't laugh." Xu Hongdou warned and then let go of his hand. "Why are you so cute?" Chen Mo pinched Xu Hongdou's face. Chen Mo felt that Xu Hongdou sometimes acted like a little woman in front of him, which really made him like her. "Stop pinching my face. You've made me fatter." Xu Hongdou slapped Chen Mo's hand away. Chen Mo stroked Xu Hongdou's back and said, "You're not fat, you're just right now." Xu Hongdou frowned slightly. "You used to say that I was just right. Now I'm obviously a little fatter, but you still say that I'm just right. Are you kidding me?" "No, it's you who have always been just right in my heart, just the way I like you." Chen Mo said softly. "I like you, not just the way you are now." "Whether you are fatter or thinner, taller or shorter, as long as you are you, I like you." "You're still saying you're not trying to tease me? Can I still grow taller? I can't be taller, and I can't be shorter either." Xu Hongdou pouted. Chen Mo smiled, "Not necessarily. It might shrink when you get older." "Go away, you're old." Xu Hongdou was unhappy. "Wouldn't it be nice for us to grow old together?" Chen Mo said with a smile, and then sang softly: [The most romantic thing I can think of is to grow old with you, collecting every bit of laughter along the way, and saving it for later when we sit in a rocking chair and talk about it slowly] [The most romantic thing I can think of is to grow old with you, until we are too old to go anywhere, and I still treat you as the treasure in my hand] Xu Hongdou put her ear on Chen Mo's chest, listening quietly to Chen Mo's "voice of the heart". Just as Xu Hongdou was immersed in the song and felt a little moved, she heard Chen Mo say: "Actually, I like you to be a little fatter. It feels better." "Too thin, it hurts." "."Xu Hongdou. She believed that these were Chen Mo's truest words tonight. (End of this chapter)
