Entertaining Children

Chapter 45 XY again

Chapter 45 is XY again

After the families separated, Sun Zhihao did not mention the marriage family anymore, which seemed to confirm Xiao Yao’s guess that the discussion of the dads just now was just a joke. However, Sun Zhihao still drove the RV to the simple yurt of Xiao Siqi and his son to be a neighbor.

At lunch, Sun Zhihao used the simple but modern kitchen in the RV to fry some vegetables. Since the kitchen is too small to accommodate two people, and Xiao Siqi and his son provided enough buns and meat patties for the two families to eat together as a staple food, Sun Zhihao has saved it. After the trouble of preparing the staple food, Xiao Siqi sat down and enjoyed the meal in peace of mind.

It is usual to take a short break after lunch, but since the gathering time in the afternoon is three o’clock, it is relatively late. Everyone has some free time after lunch break. Xiao Siqi and Sun Zhihao took their children with them, and the four of them went around in a circle and felt the beautiful scenery and vast expanse of the grassland. It is a little regrettable that neither Xiao Siqi nor Sun Zhihao can ride horses, and the program team did not arrange for local herdsmen to accompany them at this time, so the wish of several people to gallop across the horse was not realized.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, everyone arrived at the meeting point on time. Chen Lei immediately announced the afternoon activity project, catching sheep.

Of course not to catch the sheep in the flock of free-range grazing on the grassland, it would be too difficult for them. Their task is to catch sheep in the sheepfold.

The program team selected a herdsman’s sheepfold. Their task is to seize the more than 20 sheep in the sheepfold, and each sheep will be vaccinated by a professional veterinarian.

This task is completed by the father and the child separately. The so-called completion together means that the father and the children have to catch the sheep in the sheepfold and complete this task. For more than 20 sheep, fathers are responsible for catching two-thirds, and children are responsible for catching one-third. The so-called separate completion means to separate the time when the father and the children catch the sheep. First, the fathers go in the sheepfold to catch the sheep, the children watch outside, and after the fathers are finished, the children enter the sheepfold, and the fathers do. Quit to be a spectator outside. Only five people can enter the arena at each stage.

Neither adults nor children have much experience in this matter, even if Xiao Yao is evil, he can’t do much. Whether it’s an adult or a child, it’s always a rush to grab it, but fortunately, there are so many people and a few people are chasing and blocking it, and the space for the sheepfold is relatively limited, and it won’t be impossible to complete it. After more than an hour of hard work, the ten people were divided into two groups, and finally each completed his part of responsibility, and all the sheep in the fold were caught and shot.

In the afternoon, the ten people who caught the sheep were all humiliated. After the task was completed, it was natural to ask everyone to go back and tidy up. The ethnic minorities are hospitable. It is rare for so many celebrities to record shows. Naturally, the honest herdsmen should give them a treat. So the fathers don’t need to cook on the first night. The herdsmen in the camp prepared mouth-watering roasted whole lamb and other ethnic specialties. For dinner, everyone just needs to let go of their belly and start eating.

This season is still autumn in many inland areas, but the weather on the northwestern grassland is already very cold. Especially at night, the temperature is much lower than inland. So when the ten guests arrived at the dinner gathering place at 6 o’clock in the evening, although the sky hadn’t completely darkened, several bonfires had already been lit on the venue.

The golden color and the greasy roasted whole lamb made everyone move their index fingers. In addition to roasting the whole lamb, the herders also prepared a lot of barbecue materials and utensils to let the guests experience the addiction of roasting lamb skewers on the grassland.

After everyone was full, the guests were surprised to find that the local herdsmen not only prepared food for them, but also carefully prepared Mongolian dance performances with ethnic characteristics. This scene, although not comparable to Nadam, is a lively and lively bonfire party.

In addition to the performances of the local herdsmen, the program team also arranged some small interactive programs in a timely manner. For example, let a local herder perform a dance, and let the children guess that the dance mimics the movements of that animal.

There are no more than two kinds of actions that the people on the grassland like, one is a wolf and the other is an eagle. The movements of wolves are not well integrated into the dance, but the movements of birds waving their wings up and down are very common in dances. The movement of the Han dance with open hands and waving is softer, which can be said to be other birds. The movements of Mongolian dance are more powerful, and naturally it is an eagle.

Xiao Yao naturally guessed it before the herders performed, but he wanted to be as low-key as possible, but he didn’t mean to participate in the guess at all, sitting on the side grabbing the lamb and eating happily. It was only when everyone came out and danced around the bonfire at the end, reluctantly threw down the lamb, and kicked everyone around the bonfire a few times.

Early the next morning, the program team called the five families up early to do the morning task. In the past, most of the tasks in the morning were related to competition for breakfast. This time the task was also related to breakfast, but it was not about contention. Just like catching sheep yesterday afternoon, the five families did not compete separately, but the five families must work together to complete. , You can eat when you are done.

The task in the morning is to milk the cow. This is also a project where everyone has no experience. Not to mention the children, even five dads, who grow up to this age, have seen a handful of cows, let alone actually milked cows.

As usual, the professional milkers gave a demonstration to everyone, and then let the father and the children fight in person. Most of the cows are very docile, not attacking with horns at every turn like a bullfight. But the size of the cow is too large, even if it kicks back casually, it is very dangerous if it hits a person.

Everyone was milking the milk cautiously, and the movements were as standard and gentle as possible. With many professional people watching, there was no injury incident where the guest was kicked by a cow. But only once, everyone’s movements cannot be too standard and professional. Although no one was kicked, the container of milk placed under the cow was kicked over several times, and the overall task was not easy. It took almost an hour for the five-family relay to fill a can of milk requested by the show crew. Although the physical energy is not consumed much, but due to the need for a high degree of concentration, everyone still feels tired after the entire task is completed.

Because the program group does not stipulate that everyone must do it. Xiao Yao, who has no interest in the milk-producing organs of dairy cows, did not start milking, but helped to calm the cow’s emotions while others were milking.

When everyone is milking the cow by hand, others mostly calm the cow’s mood by petting the cow. Xiao Yao didn’t do this. Instead, he took out an ocarina from his pocket and played music to the cow.

Ocarina is a musical instrument Xiao Yao has dabbled in in his previous life, but because of issues such as breath, finger dexterity and rhythm, etc., he gave up after playing it for a long time. But he still remembers the basic fingerings and corresponding scales, as well as a few more famous Ocarina songs. The ocarina he took out was bought after seeing it in a souvenir shop in a scenic spot when he was running around with Xiao Chengru. Through more than a year of professional guidance and training by Xiao Siqi, he has been playing the piano for more than a year now with his finger dexterity, rhythm, and even martial arts training to improve his breath much better than in his previous life. Now the effect of playing the piano is much stronger than in his previous life. The effect is even better after adulthood in your twenties. Only because of age and physical problems, the palm is too small to hold the 12-hole ocarina with the shape of a submarine. Now I am playing the six-hole ocarina, which is smaller in appearance and easy to hold.

It’s no surprise that Xiao Yao can play an instrument. The last more than an hour of assault training was able to produce an erhu song, and now it’s not a big deal to play an ocarina. But what makes everyone feel strange is that this ocarina piece played by Xiao Yao is something that no one has ever heard before.

Xiao Yao played a classic ocarina song “The Original Scenery of Hometown” by the former RB Ocarina master Soujiro. This song has a beautiful melody and profound artistic conception. It has been used as an interlude in many film and television works, so it is very popular. Ocarina fans believe that the status of this piece is basically comparable to the status of Eagles’ Hotel California in the hearts of guitar lovers. It is a must-learn classic. But in this life, without Soujiro, naturally there would be no “Original Scenery of Hometown”. By the time Xiao Yao realized this, it was already a little late, and he had finished playing all of his songs.

“The Original Scenery of Hometown” is a classic in Ocarina, and its artistic conception is related to natural scenery. Xiao Yao, who was in the grassland, picked up the ocarina, and naturally the first piece that came to his mind was this “Original Scenery of Hometown”, and the tranquil touch of Zen in the piece is also suitable for calming the emotions of cows. Makes everyone’s milking work much smoother.

The cows are indeed quiet, but the people next to them are not quiet anymore. Such a nice piece of music was something that everyone had never heard before, and everyone looked at Xiao Siqi for the first time.

Xiao Siqi naturally understands what everyone means. To be honest, he is also quite surprised now. Although after completing the two songs “The Most Beautiful” and “The Night I Miss You” with the help of Xiao Yao, Xiao Siqi has also taught him in order not to waste Xiao Yao’s occasional musical inspiration and the moving melodies that pop up. Xiao Yao has some knowledge of composition. No matter how many times he has told himself that his son is a genius in his heart, but in just one year, Xiao Yao can complete such an excellent piece by himself, or an ocarina of pure music, he is still a little surprised. Dare to believe it.

“August 1st, what’s the name of this tune, where did you learn it?” Xiao Siqi understood the meaning of everyone’s eyes, and when he asked this sentence, he also made it clear to everyone that this tune was not written by Xiao Siqi.

When Xiao Yao is playing, the whole person’s state is also immersed in the artistic conception of the song. When he finished the song, he recovered from the artistic conception of the song, and when he saw everyone’s weird eyes, he realized that something was wrong. At first, he took out the ocarina to play, thinking that no matter how high his musical literacy was on the show, this halo was added to his father Xiao Siqi. Because everyone knows that all his abilities in music are and can only be cultivated by Xiao Siqi, and the only thing he forgot is that the classic song he played is not available in this life, and Xiao Siqi is It will never take advantage of creation. It is not what he wrote, and he will not recognize it without a cheeky.

Furthermore, when Xiao Siqi’s words were asked, it was already clear to everyone that this piece was not written by him, and Xiao Yao just wanted to put the creator’s name on Xiao Siqi’s head but couldn’t do it.

The first reaction in Xiao Yao’s mind was to fabricate an unknown folk master like in a previous life novel. But that kind of method is mostly used by the protagonist to travel through the ancient routines. You can’t find this person. You can only worship the mysterious inexperienced master, but now it is the Internet age. This piece is so excellent that it will definitely catch fire in the field of pure music, and its artistic conception is very suitable as the background music of film and television works, Qian Tu can foresee. If he dares to say in the show today that he does not know who the creator is, whether it is for fame or for profit, tomorrow will not know how many brazen people will dare to come forward to claim the author’s identity. Was he going to fight the lawsuit one by one at that time? It’s annoying to think about it. Xiao Yao didn’t really want to open cheats so early, but instead of cheapening those shameless people, it’s better to be shameless by himself.

“This is what I saw in a bunch of scores in your music room at home. The name of the song is “Original Scenery of Hometown”, and the author seems to write XY.” Fortunately, I still have a hidden secret that few people know. The identity code of, this can give Dad an explanation, and at the same time avoid the frenzied bombing that will appear now.
