Chapter 3 The Big Sister Who Brings Hope
Since the Chu brothers and sisters saw the strange instrument (later known that it was called the harp) from the waste station that day, they had new toys. They secretly built a small room for the harp in the corner of the scrap station. Then, with the consent of the administrator, he happily replaced the small space originally made of asbestos tiles with aluminum leather, which was because he heard from the teacher that asbestos tiles were poisonous.
The moon seems to be born with musical talent. Even if you play it randomly, you can make this stringed harp sound like flowing water. However, Chu Feiyue looked at her sister as if she was taking revenge, because every time her sister improvised, she would show a strange smile like a little fox who stole the chicken, and her name was 'I'm intoxicated'.
Anyway, this harp has become an indispensable partner of the two brothers and sisters. Chu Feiyue even sneaked into the Xinhua Bookstore far away to read the books about the harp, but was kicked out because his fingers were too dirty and left black marks on the book.
But Chu Feiyue has understood that the instrument like a harp is not actually a harp, but a toy at most. Because the regular harp has 48 lines and 7 pedals. There is no such thing, but when Chu Feiyue told her sister about this, the little girl pouted like a stubborn donkey and firmly thought that her baby was the harp, and Chu Feiyue also relied on her sister and called it the harp.
Yes, who cares what the name of a musical instrument that is missing strings?
Chu Feiyue also tried to connect the broken string, but the nylon rope that was already tight when leaving the factory had no extra length, and it was obviously unrealistic to use tape or something. Finally, the administrator took out a piece of cotton thread and rubbed it into a string to replace it.
Unfortunately, the cotton thread is virtual. The sound of pulling the cotton thread and other strings is completely heaven and earth. In the end, it can only become a decoration unfortunately.

Recently, a new person came to the orphanage, not a new orphan, but an out-of-hospital person.
She is very beautiful. Her delicate facial features are distributed on her face in a perfect proportion. Her long hair has crossed her waist. When she puts her head on her side, her long black hair slips through her cheeks, giving people a fresh and bright feeling. Chu Feiyue, who was just 7 years old, couldn't figure out how to describe her beauty, but maybe this is the realistic version of the 'natural beauty' that the teacher talked about two days ago.
The beautiful sister's name is Liu Xing. According to herself, she is a junior high school student in the third year of junior high school. Because of my parents' business, my parents moved from Hunan to Shihuang Island. When she was in her hometown, she liked to go to the orphanage to play with the children in it. When she heard that there was also an orphanage here, she came to have a look.
The beautiful sister quickly replaced Jogindi as the head of all the children here, and even Jogindi looked forward to her arrival every day. Because every time she comes, she will bring some strange but interesting small objects. Maybe she has equated the toy in the eyes of the children.
But only the exception is between the Chu brothers and sisters, because every time Liu Xing comes, Chu Feiyue will be pulled away by Qiao Jindi. After all, there is one less person who divides toys, not to mention two.
So the Chu brothers and sisters learned to be smart. Every time they saw Liu Xing coming, they hid in their own nests. Anyway, they didn't have anything, so they were not very excited when they saw that other children got new toys. Chu Feiyue even secretly congratulated that she had never been there once, otherwise they would have been the first time and look forward to the second time. The feeling of disappointment was not very comfortable.
Every day, they still go to the waste station to play. Yu Yue has figured out some ways to use the toy harp, and gradually can pop up some songs they have heard, such as 'The March of the Volunteers' and 'Let's swing the oars'. The little girl is proud of this, because she beat her brother on this.
I don't know why, maybe it's because of the rush of heaven and music. Anyway, Chu Feiyue's music performance has never been so good that even the harp bullied him. Obviously, after seeing that his sister played well, he went up and tried it, but the harp made a miserable cry like killing a pig. Yuyue quickly pushed away her brother and bowed her head to comfort her heart-stained baby harp.
Nasty brother, I don't care if you draw circles on the ground.

On July 23, 2011, the first anniversary of the harp was picked up, a sunny day.
This day is a memorable day, because their harp 'Xiao Nuo' is one year old. In order to celebrate Xiaonuo's birthday, I specially made a suit for it. Well, in fact, it's just two pieces of rain cloth together. For this rain cloth, Chu Feiyue was even chased for two streets by the shopkeeper, but after all, he ran away.
In front of Xiaonuo's table, the two brothers and sisters inserted a birthday candle, which they picked up from the door of the cake shop across the street. In the small flame of the small candle in the small room that became dark because the curtain was put down, it looked particularly warm.
In this warm atmosphere, Yu Yue hugged Xiao Nuo to play a happy birthday song for him, and his brother, who had no music cells, was ordered to clap his hands and agree.
There is no song, because Chu Feiyue's voice is also very bad, but even the simple 'ding-dong' sound of the harp can make people particularly pleasant to listen to.
At the end of the song, the applause sounded fiercely. Yu Yue hugged Xiao Nuo and thanked her brother. The elder brother patted the little girl's little head as a reward.
Uh? Why is there applause? The two brothers and sisters looked at each other and saw themselves confused in each other's eyes.
At this time, the curtain was suddenly opened, and the strong sunlight shook the eyes of the two brothers and sisters. While covering their eyes, they heard a voice gently asking, 'It's so beautiful. Can you play another song?'
It was not easy to rub my eyes until it didn't hurt. Chu Feiyue squinted at the beautiful girl in front of her. Sister Liu Xing?' Yes, it's Liu Xing.
'Do you know me?' Liu Xing was surprised for a moment, and then put his hands together to make a sudden realization. Ah, I remember that you are all from the orphanage. I saw you the first time I went there.
'Hey hey,' Yuyue raised her head and gave Liu Xing a bright little face. 'Sister, do you think I play well?'
'Of course, I heard your heart. Blessings, looking forward to it, happiness is full. Liu Xing rolled up the rain cloth in his hand and put it on the top of the hut, bent down and looked inside. I want to see what you are playing, is it the harp? Only the harp can play such vivid music.
The girl walked into the cabin with her waist. The cabin is big enough for a 6- or 7-year-old child, but it is too small for a girl who is already 15.16 years old. She can only move carefully to avoid touching the wall.
Even if the movement is slow, the cabin is so big. When the Chu brothers and sisters gave way, Liu Xing quickly came to the harp she wanted to see.
She touched the harp with a little doubt, counting and counting one by one, 'Strange, 25-string? Isn't it a harp, but a harp? No, it's not like this.' She whispered to herself.
'Sister Liu Xing, although my brother said that this may be a toy harp, Xiao Nuo is not a toy. Even if she only has 24 strings, it is still the best.' Yuyue proudly praised her precious harp.
'24? Wow, the lowest tone is not nylon, but this is cotton thread, right? Liu Xing bent his finger and flicked it, making a dull 'bang' sound.
' Sister Liu Xing is right. 'Yi Yue squeezed her brother away and came to the girl. 'Sister, can you play the harp? Teach me.'
'I don't play as well as you. How can I teach you? I haven't learned it. Hungry, wait. Do you think you haven't learned the harp?'
'Yes, I'm playing it myself now.' Yuyue scratched her hands randomly, with a cute expression.
'Oh, little sister, I'm very interested in you now. Well, you will wait for me here at this time tomorrow. I'll bring you some books. Ah, by the way, how about you sing? If you play the harp, you can't sing.'
After a while, there was a humming sound like the sound of nature in the corner of the waste station. Although there was no practical meaning, it seemed to have the effect of calming people's hearts, like a soul-shen song.
