C84 Their Lives
After the autumn lotus went to Cloud Arts, Yu Er's talent for dancing, which had been accumulated for a long time, gradually surfaced. She danced the peacock dance more and more smoothly, becoming deeper and deeper. From a traditional cultural point of view, she understood the traditional peacock dance of the Dai clan.
Qiuhe had also heard that Yu'er's peacock dance was now following closely behind her. Yu'er often wore a pink tuxedo to dance.
Yu'er often communicated with Qiu He, and Tao Huizhen had also seen the general contents of the letter. Qiuhe's understanding of dance. It started from the dance academy's way of understanding modern national dance from the depth and evolution of dance history. What she said was right and proper, Professional dance terminologies were frequently used. She even invited Yu Er to visit the Cloud Arts. Yu Er never went.
The next spring, which was May 2011, two staff members came down from the county police station. One of them was a policeman who had taken over the matter of "Qiuhe saving Little Peacock. " He specifically asked about Qiuhe. He was very surprised to know that Qiuhe was already studying at Yunyi.
The purpose of the two staff members coming down to Big Tea Village was to investigate and settle down people who were not registered in the village, including Yu-er.
At the beginning of May. Tao Huizhen brought Yu Er to sit on the bus heading towards Jing Hong. After the bus left the bus station, it left the small Mengla County behind. The short, sporadic cardboard box shaped building gradually became the size of a cardboard box. Meng La County's Great Buddhist Temple emerged from those cardboard boxes.
In fact, in recent years, there were many buildings in Mengla County. As long as one observed carefully, it was not hard to find them. At the end of the main street, a few old buildings had disappeared, replaced by a brand new six-story office building.
Tao Huizhen leaned against the window and Yu Er held her hand. Although Yu Er was already in the second year of middle school, she still relied on Tao Huizhen. The bus climbed up the winding mountain road. Mengla County was a small town at the foot of the road. It was shaped like a mulberry leaf. The bus was circling on the road, sometimes Mengla County was on the left, sometimes on the right. Sometimes it was getting closer and sometimes it was getting more distant. Sometimes, Tao Huizhen looked out the window, but she couldn't tell whether it was leaving Mengla or coming to Mengla.
Halfway through the journey, Yu Er looked out the window. She saw a lot of factories, towering chimney, and billowing white smoke. She saw cities bigger than Mengla County fly past her eyes. "I still miss the past. " Yu Er looked at the tired people in the car.
Noon's light shone from the front of the car. The car was walking, but it also seemed like it hadn't left.
Tao Huizhen unscrewed the warm cup she brought and handed it to Yu Er. "Here. What are you reminiscing about in the past? It's so good now. Look out the window, those heavy industries, those various industries are all flourishing and developing. The entire world is quickly entering a stage of rapid development. Maybe in many years, Yu Er will also be a member of those industries. You belong to this era. Not in the past. "
"In the past, Sister Qiuhe, Saber Master. We were all together. "
"Silly girl, we have to look forward. Humans have to face loneliness and difficulties. The more difficult it is, the more one needs to face it alone. You have to be as brave and fearless as the old man in 'The Old Man and The Sea' San Diego. "
" Yes, I understand. That book is also my pillow book now. Teacher, one day, you will also return to your hometown. I will always become a person, right? "
Tao Huizhen pondered for a moment. "At least before you have a foothold in your dance, I have not considered those problems. Yu Er, are you confident in this dance competition?"
"I do have confidence. " Yu Er nodded. The bus slowly entered the entrance of Jinghong City.
Two years had passed. Tao Huizhen stuck her head out and looked at the city in front of her. She already knew that she was fated with this city.
The same time two years ago, the same city. She brought Autumn Lotus. At that time, compared to now, It was much more difficult. Expenses, experience, nothing at all. One step at a time, one step at a time, one step at a time, one step at a time, one step at a time. He couldn't forget the past. She remembered that she and Qiuhe had woken up early in the morning and were walking on the winding red dirt road. When they arrived at Mengla County and sat on the bus, they were already exhausted. Now, they had the minibus from the tea village to the county town.
Compared to Yu Er, Qiuhe was very nervous at that time. The girl who had left her hometown didn't have much confidence in her first time going on the stage. However, when Qiuhe really stepped onto the stage, it was as if she had found a long-awaited resolution.
It was not too late to go to Jinghong City this time. Tao Huizhen led Yu-er through the streets. The small hotel two years ago was no longer there. They stayed in another small hotel called "Happy Hostel. " The yearly Jinghong dance competition, The atmosphere was as usual. The two went to register the next day, and they got on stage a week later. Next was to announce the results. Yu Er and Qiu He from two years ago had the same result. They were also performing roughly the same dance. On the way back, Tao Huizhen looked out the window. The city gradually became hazy, and the dance students here set sail twice. In a short period of time, She left behind a deep feeling.
Xia Chu, Tao Huizhen brought Yu'er into the car heading towards Kunming. One year ago, Qiuhe applied for the city level dance competition and was only accepted by Yunyi after she won the championship. This year, Yu-er had taken the same route - May's Jinghong. Kunming in June. Tao Huizhen felt as if everything had been replayed. She ran around with Yu Er, just like how she did with Qiuhe. She had encountered many difficulties. Sometimes, she thought that Yu'er, who was walking beside her, was Qiu He. She thought that the time would still remain in the summer of last year.
In this city level dance competition, Yu Er copied Qiuhe's results back then. When Yu Er walked down from the podium, Tao Huizhen hugged Yu Er excitedly. This was her second student who had won the championship. Tao Huizhen wanted to cry, but Yu'er was the first to cry. Tao Huizhen endured it.
Being in Kunming, they thought of going to Yunyi to meet Qiuhe. It was almost July by then. Qiuhe didn't have time to see them for the provincial dance competition at the end of the year, so she rejected them.
At the same time, the host of the Provincial Dance Competition contacted Tao Huizhen and invited Yu Er to participate in the Provincial Dance Competition in December. Tao Huizhen accepted it gratefully.
During that summer vacation, Qiuhe practiced dancing at Yunxiu while Yu Er practiced dancing in her hometown.
