[R18] 夫人你馬甲又掉了 – “Madam, Your Vest Has Fallen Off Again” Chapter 98 [English]

098 simplified musical notation (release notice)

Isn’t it just double overtones and left-hand picking?

Doesn’t the double overtone mean that the fingertips float on the strings without pressing them down? You need to find the right pitch position to control the position of the string vibration?

As for the technique of left-hand plucking, it is more difficult than double overtones, but anyone who knows a little bit about the violin knows this technique.

Are you proud to know this?

Qin Ran’s key point is not these, but that Qin Yu is not proficient in double overtones and left-hand plucking skills. She double overtones are very stiff, and the string vibration is good and bad. When the right hand touches the string, it is a bit sluggish, making the tremolo sound not smooth.

The problem was even greater when she plucked the strings with her left hand. When Qin Yu plucked the D string, it was always dull because she didn’t dare to use force. Qin Ran estimated that Qin Yu had tried it himself. If the sound was crisp, she would definitely hit the E string.

In short, Qin Yu’s basic skills are still good, but his skills are definitely not up to par.

But Qin Yu wanted to show off his skills in a piece of music, causing the beauty of the piece to be ruined.

This is the origin of Qin Ran’s phrase “not smooth”.

But she didn’t say it.

I just took out the headphones and put them in my ears, found a stool to sit on, and turned the music up to the maximum, and then the irritability between my brows and my brows slowly calmed down.

Because with Qin Yu’s words, the atmosphere in the entire small auditorium suddenly darkened.

Qiao Sheng put away the carelessness on his face, turned his head, and looked at Qin Yu with a sneer.

Qin Yu didn’t dare to look at Qiao Sheng. She pinched the palm of her hand with her fingers. She closed her eyes slightly, and then said to Xu Yaoguang: “So you just let her be here?”

Xu Yaoguang also came back to his senses at this moment. He glanced at Qin Ran, his cold eyes with deep pupils, and turned sideways to talk to Qin Yu: “As a violinist, you are bound to be criticized by various professional and unprofessional people. There is no need to care.”

“But what if I say that her presence here affects my mood? I can’t hold it back any longer.” Qin Yu said calmly without looking at Qin Ran.

Xu Yaoguang didn’t answer immediately, he thought for a while.

Then he looked at Qin Ran, his meaning was obvious.

Qin Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside, looking down at Qin Ran who was sitting there.

Qiao Sheng opened his mouth and jumped up, incredulously: “Young Master Xu?!”

Xu Yaoguang still didn’t speak.

The mobile phone in Qinran’s hand moved. Lin Siran called and she picked up the phone.

The show has come to Lin Siran.

Qin Ran stood up, took off her earphones and stuffed them into her pocket. She half-squinted her almond-shaped eyes and said nonchalantly to Qiao, “We’re here, Lin Siran, let’s go.”

Qiao Sheng glanced at Qin Yu with a half-smile, his eyes filled with ice, and then followed Qin Ran and left the place.

After the two left, the small auditorium became quiet again.

Xu Yaoguang’s expression didn’t change much, and he still looked at Qin Yu coldly: “He’s gone, you continue.”

As soon as Qin Yu picked up the violin, Xu Yaoguang’s voice sounded faintly again: “Can your sister play the violin?”

Although it was a question, it was in an affirmative tone.

“She learned it when she was a child, but she didn’t take it seriously. She stopped learning after a few years, and even hit the teacher’s child on the head.” Qin Yu said.

Xu Yaoguang nodded and stopped talking.

His eyes were a little vacant. Qin Yu later paid attention to he and found that he didn’t listen as seriously as before.

Outside the door, Qin Ran had already seen Lin Siran, and she fell behind the other people in the ninth class who were going to perform.

“What are you thinking about? All the troops have left.” Qin Ran cleared her throat and spoke in a low voice.

“I seem to see an acquaintance,” Lin Siran frowned slightly, “I’m not sure.”

Lin Siran came to her senses again, took out a thumb-sized glass bottle with a plant in it from her pocket, and handed it directly to Qin Ran: “Take it.”

“What?” Qiao Sheng leaned over to take a look.

Lin Siran smiled calmly: “A piece of grass, nothing.”

Hearing what Lin Siran said, Qin Ran glanced at her expressionlessly.

Qiao Sheng didn’t pay much attention to Qin Ran’s expression. He just took a serious look at it and found that it was really a piece of grass. He immediately said nothing.

Girls are really boring.

In the evening, Qin Yu finished rehearsing and went home with a thoughtful look on his face.

Ning Qing was talking on the phone at home, looking happy.

Qin Yu sat on the sofa and did not practice the piano. After Ning Qing finished talking on the phone, she put her hands on her hair and said casually, “Mom, where did you find that piece of paper last time?”

Ning Qing just finished hanging up the phone and was stunned, “What kind of paper?”

Qin Yu pursed her lips, “Just…when you were packing things for grandma, a piece of paper fell out.”

Ning Qing thought about it for a long time and only had a slight impression: “Paper? That should be your grandma’s thing, right? I don’t know. Will you come with me to visit your grandma tomorrow? By the way?”

Chen Shulan?

Qin Yu’s impression of Chen Shulan was only that of an old man wearing simple clothes, and he didn’t know Chen Shulan at all.

However, the artistic conception and technique in this score are very sophisticated. Qin Yu himself estimated that it had nothing to do with Chen Shulan, but he just didn’t know where she got it.

Hearing this, he nodded slightly and said, “I will go see grandma with you tomorrow.”

Because Qin Yu discovered that Xu Yaoguang was more interested in her new adapted song than her music, but there was only one music score.

However, Qin Yu didn’t associate the music score with Chen Shulan, so he could only say, try your luck.

**

The next day, Qin Yu rarely went to see Chen Shulan with Ning Qing.

“Mom, Yu’er is here to see you.” Ning Qing shook Chen Shulan’s bed.

Chen Shulan was very sick, her mental state was not good, and her voice was weak when she spoke.

Qin Yu didn’t sit by the bed, but sat on a chair to the side. She greeted Chen Shulan several times with great concern. In the end, when she was about to leave, she covered Chen Shulan with a quilt. “By the way, grandma, when my mother helped you pack your luggage last time, I seemed to see a piece of paper with a bunch of symbols on it.”

Afraid that Chen Shulan wouldn’t be able to understand the simplified musical notation, Qin Yu changed his explanation.

“Do you have any other he?”

Chen Shulan was in a bad state when she spoke. She didn’t say a few words to Qin Yu. However, when she heard these words, she perked up and looked at Qin Yu with bright eyes.
