Chapter 584

~5 min read 995 words

Precisely for this reason, the BGM in the promotional short film does not feature a studio-quality recording.

However...

What Qin Feng did not expect was this.

Precisely because of Reba's occasional impatience.

The recorded version is mixed with the sound of wind and scattered noise from the village.

Instead, it adds even more of a human touch to the song.

A song among the tea trees on the rocky mountains.

Chanted amidst the flowing clear springs.

Netizens who had been exceptionally eager before gave this version of "Tea Soup" unanimous praise! Only the lyrics that followed.

Even Qin Feng and Reba never mentioned the elderly woman Zheng Zhaodi again.

Yet the content within the lyrics.

Let people hear a regretful story from decades ago, set against the backdrop of defending the homeland.

All the beauty in the world.

But...

There are always some things that remain unresolved.

Vroom vroom vroom~

After the plane landed at Phoenix Airport.

On Qin Feng's drive back to the courtyard cottage in the little Wuling.

Reba took off her shoes and curled up in the passenger seat.

The singing from the preview short film in the phone continued.

"I say drink another bowl of the tea soup I brewed, you say you must cross the river right now."

"Crossing the river to that distant, freezing north, I fear your hands will freeze stiff--"

"When will you return to drink the tea soup I brew?"

"This time I will add more old ginger."

"The letter you sent has always sat on the table."

"I do not know where to send it back to."

Perhaps Reba's singing technique was not superb.

Perhaps her vocal condition was not particularly outstanding.

But whether it be technique or timbre.

In the face of genuine emotion, they are not worth mentioning.

When recording this "Tea Soup" at that time.

The evening breeze made Reba, in her long skirt in the alley, tremble slightly in her voice.

Of course, it might also be the touch felt in her heart after learning about the story of the elderly woman Zheng Zhaodi beforehand.

Even when chanting someone else's story.

The emotions were still very fitting.

On the airport expressway under the night sky.

Reba glanced toward the north, then said to Qin Feng: "This north must be on the other side of that river, right?" Qin Feng nodded, saying nothing more.

The music in the phone continued.

"The north wind passes through how many villages, going back and forth around--"

"Unable to distinguish that year when I begged heaven for blessing, seeing only the wind roar, yet becoming even more desolate."

"How many times have the crops been harvested in autumn, how many times have the wheat fields ripened."

"So I burn incense, quietly sad, and you still have never returned..."

"When will you return to brew the tea soup with me..."

Qin Feng opened the car window.

The cool evening wind poured into the car, making the music sound a bit quieter. Hiss--

The little Wuling stopped outside the courtyard cottage.

Reba's small hand climbed onto Qin Feng's wrist.

She then said: "Qin Feng, don't move, I'm taking a photo."

The moment her words ended.

Click--

Reba took a photo of them holding hands.

No beauty filter.

No filter.

Even the car logo was the little Wuling.

Focusing on being simple and unadorned.

Qin Feng asked: "What are you doing?"

Reba raised the phone in her hand and said: "Posting on Weibo!"

Recording every moment around us.

And the little bits and pieces of being together with Qin Feng.

The silly girlfriend has finally figured out how to play Weibo~

The accompanying picture is the photo from just now.

Reba then wrote a short caption.

【Image: May there be no partings in this world; cherish the person before your eyes.】

A single song cannot condense a person's entire life experience.

And suffering has never been something worth glorifying.

Only by remembering.

Can we truly not forget.

Clearly, the comments under Reba's Weibo post.

Are mostly netizens' impressions after listening to "Tea Soup."

-- 【Honestly speaking, this is the only song Feng-ge wrote that made me cry. I don't know why, it just feels very regretful】

-- 【I hope everyone can love their other half well. Even a plain, ordinary life together is a kind of luck.】

-- 【Pangdi is right. May there be no more partings in this world, and may everyone be well.】

-- 【Say what you will, in the photo Reba's hands look fair and tender, but Feng-ge's hands are so dark (manual dog head)】

-- 【What does a man need soft, fair skin for? A bit of a tan is healthier!】

-- 【By the way, haven't you all focused on the wrong thing again?】

-- 【You bunch of jokers, your topics can veer from Mount Ximalaya all the way to the Tigris River TvT~】

Granted, the discussion topic under Reba's Weibo post has clearly gone a bit off-track. But one thing is very obvious.

At least under the comments about this song.

Even the joker netizens who usually love to stir things up every day.

Didn't crack jokes.

Clearly, this group of cuties who like Qin Feng.

Although their usual style is jokey, every one of them a fun-seeker.

Still know how to read the room.

Perhaps that previous song "Tea Soup" left a deep impression on Reba.

She said to Qin Feng: "It's the first time I've felt that the word 'story' sometimes carries quite a heavy weight." Especially the past of those who have passed away.

Qin Feng tapped her nose and said: "Why the sudden bout of sentimentality?"

Reba lifted her chin and said: "Isn't it perfectly normal for girls to be a bit more sentimental?"

Qin Feng spread his hands and said: "Normal is normal, but it's not normal for you."

Qin Feng said: "You tomboy girl, stop always referring to yourself as 'girl' this and 'girl' that."

Reba's expression: (plump
