Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1043 303. Zhao'an? Departure
In the afternoon, Li An and Liu Zhen met again.

As Li An expected, Liu Zhen's attitude towards this cooperation changed significantly after he learned that the other two pilot projects were the Children's Palace and the Blue Sky Elegant Art Promotion Center.

Challenges and opportunities go hand in hand. In Liu Zhen's view, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for calligraphers.

Even if Shu Ren's performance can only tie with the two schools in the end, it will still be a qualitative improvement for Shu Ren's influence in Chengdu's education circle.

I have to say that this is a wonderful thing to think about.

"I'll leave it all to you."

At this point, Liu Zhen is willing and can only place all his hopes on Lee Ang.

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Even if it means going all the way to the end, Liu Zhen will accept it, unless Shu Ren gives up the cooperation with Rong Ai now.

Li An: "Principal Liu, we have been working together for more than a semester. Both rivals should not be underestimated. I can only say that I will do my best."

Liu Zhen: "There is no need to talk about this question. I understand. But I also want to say that if it were anyone else, I don't think this would be something that could be accomplished."

After a pause, he said, "Li An, I believe this is something only you can do. Just go for it. The school is behind you. The school and I will fully support you."

Li An sighed softly: "Thank you, Principal Liu. I will speak frankly now."

Liu Zhen: “Go ahead.”

Li An: "According to the course load this year, I have to hire more professional teachers to arrange classes twice or even three times a week. I hope the school can help me pay half of the teacher's tuition fees, because some unpopular instrument subjects that have to be opened in order to form an orchestra may not even have a formal class, and there may even be a situation where teachers and students are one-on-one or one-on-two."

Liu Zhen: "Halfway is just the beginning. If the performance of the orchestra is satisfactory, I can assure you that the tuition fees of future teachers can be fully borne by the school. In addition, we can also provide formal jobs for some young teachers depending on the situation."

Li An: "Thank you, Principal Liu. Now it depends on the enrollment."

Liu Zhen: "Enrollment will wait, are you interested in taking a position at our art center?"

Li Anle: "Is there any salary?"

Liu Zhen laughed: "Annual salary."
-
On the way to Xiaoche's house.

“Another art consultant?”

“Another art consultant.”

"You're almost a professional consultant. Do you agree?"

"Old Liu just mentioned it casually. We'll talk about it later when he brings it up again. The opening ceremony concert is scheduled for March 3rd to 5th, and then the school will cooperate with the enrollment work from the 6th to the 9th, and all classes will start on March 11th."

In the evening, the two had dinner at Xiaoche's house, and then Sang Ping warmly invited them to sit upstairs for a while.

Xiaoche will start school tomorrow, so Chen Xuan took the initiative to ask Xiaoche to pack up his luggage. "We'll take your luggage back for you later, and you can go back directly after school tomorrow at noon."

Sang Ping said there was no rush, "We'll send Teacher Li back when she comes back."

Li An: "Don't wait, don't let her run away in such a cold day, Linlin, hurry up and pack your things."

Seeing this, Sang Ping said nothing more, "Then Linlin, go and pack up quickly. The clothes and bedding are all folded in the cabinet on the left."

"Yeah." Xiaoche got up and went back to the house to pack his suitcase.

In the living room, Sang Ping whispered to the two that the car had changed a lot since the Chinese New Year.

"Yes." Chen Xuan looked in the direction of the cabin and replied in a low voice.

While having dinner in the evening, she could clearly feel that the feeling between this "mother and daughter" was more natural than before.

Sang Ping: "Thank you, teachers."

Li An waved his hand: "This matter has nothing to do with us. The child understands things. When she grows up, she will definitely get better and better."

Upon hearing this, Sang Ping showed a faint expression of joy and nodded softly.

All the luggage she needed to take had been packed, and the car only needed to be loaded. In less than ten minutes, she walked out of the cabin dragging her suitcases.

Li An stood up, "Key."

Xiaoche ran back to the house and got the key and handed it to Li An, "Teacher."

"What are you doing for me?" Li An laughed, "Remember to pack it for school tomorrow morning."

Xiao Che nodded: "Can I see Master's Wife again tomorrow at noon?"

Chen Xuan: "Sure, I'll wait for you to have lunch."

Happy car!
The Lao Che family escorted Li Ang to the car, and Dingzi stuffed a box of barbecued meat into the trunk.

Finally got home. Although he had a busy day, Ang Lee still had no time to relax.

After tidying up the refrigerator, he went back to the study, turned on his computer and made a list of the teaching staff.

After having dinner with Ma Tao last night, Li An sent a message to Lao Feng. This morning, Lao Feng replied to Li Ang with a definite message. It was this Mr. Jiang, Lao Feng’s old gay friend.

Now all that’s missing is a bassoon teacher.

Li An thought for a moment, found Cheng Peng’s WeChat and called him.

Ask old classmates for help.

If they hadn't met and chatted for a while on the day of Rongai recruitment, Li An would have felt embarrassed to be so direct.

When the call was connected, Cheng Peng on the other end smiled in surprise and said, "I don't have any money to borrow."

Li An laughed: "I'm not borrowing money, I'm borrowing people. Is it convenient now?"

Cheng Peng: "I'm just bored, tell me the details quickly."

Then Li An told Cheng Peng about the need for a bassoon teacher and asked, "Do you have any suitable candidates to recommend to me?"

Cheng Peng: “There really is one.”

Li An: "Who is it? Is he from our school?"

Cheng Peng: "You know him well from our school."

Li An recalled that he was familiar with Cheng Peng because he played the bassoon in school. Who else could it be? As he thought about it, he suddenly smiled and said, "You are not talking about yourself, right?"

Cheng Pengle: "How about it? Just tell me if it's okay or not."

Li An: "Don't make a fuss, I'm very anxious."

Cheng Peng was unwilling: "What do you mean, I'm not qualified. Seriously, I'm just looking for something to do this year."

Li An: "You don't want to consider Rong Ai anymore?"

Cheng Peng: "Brother, is this something I can consider? I'm just going to play around, there's no chance, even if I do get in, it won't be a big deal."

Li An: "Then come on, let's talk about it."

Cheng Peng: "It's agreed. I'll be there whenever you call."

Li An: "No, Lao Cheng, I'm not kidding you, think it over."

Cheng Peng: "Just do it, tell me what you need to prepare now." Li An: "Physical examination report and certificate of no criminal record."

Cheng Peng: "Huh? How do I get a certificate of no criminal record?"

Li An: "Just take your ID card to the police station near you and get one."

Cheng Peng: "When you need it."

Li An: "No hurry. Well, I have to go to Yanjing tomorrow and come back on the 25th. Let's meet when I come back."

Cheng Peng: "Ok, I'll get these two things tomorrow, just let me know when you come back."

Li An: "OK OK."

After hanging up the phone, Li An filled in Cheng Peng's name on the form.

That's it.

It's not easy.

After saving and shutting down the computer, Li An returned to the living room, where Teacher Xiaomi was lying on the sofa and browsing on her phone.

"Sorry, sorry, it's done. Cheng Peng is here to teach the bassoon."

They are leaving tomorrow. Li An hasn't spent much time with Chen Xuan these two days, and he feels a little guilty.

"Come here quickly." Chen Xuan waved, and Li An hurried over, "Let me take a look."

Chen Xuan took a fancy to a set of washing and drying sets. "How is it? Isn't it nice?"

Li An nodded: "She's very pretty, do you like her?"

Chen Xuan: “I like it.”

Li An: "If you like it, then we are brothers. Buy it."

Chen Xuan bared her teeth: "You didn't even ask how much it cost."

Li Anle: "I don't care how much it costs, what matters most is that you like it."

Chen Xuan was happy, "I'll buy it. This set is 315 yuan online. I saw some places saying it can be bought for yuan. There will be a national home appliance subsidy on March soon. I calculated that according to the subsidy policy, the lowest price may be yuan. But I don't know how its functions are. It's said to be pretty good online."

Li An: "Let's not study the functions. They are nothing more than those. The functions of something at this price cannot be bad. I also like it. It's decided. Let's add it!"

Chen Xuan happily added the model of the washing and drying set to the memo. "Look, the list of home appliances is basically ready, except for the TV."

Central air conditioning, refrigerator, washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, sweeping robot, all major home appliances have been finalized.

When it came to choosing between a TV or a projector, both of them initially planned to choose a projector. But two days later, Teacher Xiaomi felt that the elderly might be more accustomed to watching TV, so he became a little hesitant again.

"Let's talk about this later. It's still not too late to study it when we design the decoration plan."

"Well, shall we go to bed?"

"It's a bit early to go to bed now, let's chat in bed?"

"What's that look?"
-
Happy night.

The next morning, the children put on their school uniforms and carried their school bags and started their new semester.

New semester, new atmosphere.

On the way to school, Xiaoche stared out the window in a daze. She had to make a plan for herself in the new semester.

She hasn't figured out the specific plan yet, but she has experience and knows that when making a plan, she should make one that is achievable within her capabilities.

She couldn't follow through with her winter break plans.

In order to fill her schedule with blue kitten stickers, she wished she could grow on the piano during the last few days of school.

Although she could no longer practice, or had entered a mechanical state of practice, she still forced herself to sit in front of the piano in order to achieve her goal.

The more I practiced, the more I felt something was wrong.

Yesterday her teacher asked her to put aside the music for the competition and practice Schubert's works. Then just now while having breakfast she looked through Chopin's nocturnes. She seemed to have been revived.

She had only rested for one day, but when she looked at the music score again, it was as if a storm of notes invaded her heart, making her eager to play the nocturne on the piano.

But of course she still had to listen to her teacher and not touch the competition repertoire for the next two days.

By the time he finished playing the first movement of Trout, the teacher was almost back.

Through this incident, Xiaoche truly realized the principle of combining work and rest in moderation.

After not seeing each other for a winter vacation, many classmates have changed. Some of them have grown taller, and some of them have changed their voices.

When Xiaoche was observing his classmates, he did not realize that he was also being observed.

"Lin Ge, are you going to start growing your hair?"

Xiaoche was confused: "Is this something worth being amazed at?"

Maybe she was used to looking in the mirror every day, Xiao Che herself didn't notice anything. The hair on the left side of her temple and the back of her head had completely covered her ears.

In order to avoid her hair being messy, she pinned the hair on her left side behind her ear with a hairpin.

"But Arlene is still so handsome."

Looking at Xiao Zhang and Xiao Guan, two cute friends, Xiao Che was a little puzzled. The two were arguing in the group the day before yesterday, so when did they make up?
Just then the morning reading bell rang, there was a commotion in the classroom, and Xiao Zhang and Xiao Guan instantly disappeared in front of Xiao Che's desk.

Xiaoche chuckled, smoothed the tablecloth, and then put the pencil case straight.

"Hello teacher!"

The school officially started, and the head teacher smiled brightly.
Just as Xiaoche expected, Xiaozhang and Xiaoguan got angry again before the break.
-
As the bell rang for the last class in the morning, the car rushed out the back door as the teacher walked out of the classroom.

She couldn't let her teacher and his wife wait for her to eat again today.

Fortunately, she entered the room just in time for the teacher to serve rice.

The family of three had a warm lunch, and after the meal Xiaoche accompanied the master's wife to play with the kitten.

Finally, I sent the teacher and his wife down to the underground garage.

"See you in the summer, Master's wife!"

"Not necessarily. Maybe we can meet in Warsaw."

"Hehe! Master's wife, take care of yourself!"

"Linlin, you too, remember our new agreement."

"Ok!"

"Watch the door for the next two days, be careful when cooking, and call Aunt Xu immediately if there is any emergency."

"Ok!"

Only after the teacher's car was completely out of sight did the car turn around and head towards the underground elevator.

Back in the house, Xiaoche first checked the food and water bowls of Bawan and Xiaobai.

Making sure she had enough supplies, she returned to her cabin.

The furnishings in the room were the same as when she left, without any change, and the desk surface was still spotless.

Xiaoche opened the suitcase standing against the wall and took out a diary from a pile of sheet music.

Sitting back at the desk, he opened the latest page of the diary, uncapped the pen and started writing.

'2023.02.22'

'cold'

"The teacher is accompanying his wife to Yanjing. The day after tomorrow, his wife will return to France."

'Just now, Master's wife said that we might meet in Warsaw before summer comes. I don't know if this is possible.'

"If it's possible, that would be great. If not, we can only wait for Master's Wife to come back in the summer."

'I hope everything goes well for Master's wife, and may Amitabha bless you! '

'The teacher told me something today. His father and mother will be coming to Chengdu in a few days.'

'I was a little nervous, so I asked the teacher if I had to call them grandpa and grandma. The teacher smiled, but she didn't answer my question! '

'Then I'll call them grandpa and grandma, I have grandpa and grandma too, hey! '
