Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 809 68. Happy Saturday: Sticker Sisters

"Hello."

"Hello, Teacher Li, I'm Qiao Zhizhi's mother, sorry to bother you."

As expected by Li An, the caller was Qiao Zhizhi's mother.

The entire phone call lasted less than two minutes. After Li An hung up the phone, he approved Qiao Zhizhi's mother's WeChat application and sent the address to the other party.

Xiaoche heard clearly from the sidelines that the teacher had admitted a new classmate, Qiao Zhizhi, whom she had heard the teacher mention a few days ago, and her brother's nickname was homophonic.

Li An put down his phone and returned his attention to the car, "Then I'll listen to you. Let's save the file. Are you almost resting?"

When Xiaoche heard this, she put away all her emotions. She knew it was time for her to practice the piano, so she stood up and said, "Teacher, I'm going to practice the piano."

Li An nodded: "I'll practice the sonata tonight."

After a while, a melody in F minor came from the study.

Sitting on the sofa and listening to Little Che's performance, Li An recalled every scene after Little Che came home from school in the afternoon.

After a while, he sent a message to Chen Xuan: Thank you, Teacher Xiaomi.

Before going to bed at night, Li An said good night to Xiao Che and went directly back to the bedroom. This scene made Xiao Che very happy.

However, she still kept a little "keep an eye on". After she returned to her cabin, she did not close the door completely, so that she would know even if the teacher whispered for a while before going to the study.

Half an hour later, the car was so sleepy that he couldn't stand it anymore and finally closed his eyes.

When she opened her eyes the next morning, she was pleasantly surprised to find that 80,000 people were beside her pillow.

During breakfast, the teacher asked her with a "scrutinizing" look why she didn't close the door to sleep last night.

The car's response was of course: a giggle.

But Xiaoche was not stupid. She immediately changed the topic to room temperature: "Teacher, do you think it's a little cold this morning?"
-
As the temperature drops on Saturday, the pleasant Saturday class day officially begins.

In the morning, the car went to Senior Sister Ji Yang's class, and then went back to the house to do homework.

By the time she finished her math homework and weekly diary, Liu Fengrui and Marco had already gone home from get out of class.

It was a bit regretful that she and her two friends could not see the car above, but when she saw the beef cubes on the ground at the door of the cabin, her little emotion was swept away.

She knew this must be what Marco left for her.

As for why Wang Xiaohu didn't come to class in the morning, she had already received Wang Xiaohu's QQ message.

Wang Xiaohu's class was temporarily transferred to tomorrow morning, and he will take it with Qiao Zhizhi.

Xiao Che speculated that the teacher wanted to talk to the two of them about arranging the program, and Wang Xiaohu also speculated so.

During lunch, Li An received a message from Fu Tianming. The wedding invitations he received were at least a formal text. What he received was a series of orderly numbers, starting from 1 and ending with 20.

After each number is the name of a piece of music.

I have to say that this is also a huge workload. He doesn't even know what the songs are by looking at the names of some music.

Although Fu Tianming made it clear to him that he was responsible for the opening two songs, and he could just let others play the rest.

But Li An still plans to touch them all, not for Li Yuan, but for his two good friends Fu Tianming and Wen Xiao. If you ask him to give him a car, he can't afford it, but he can play the piano for a whole morning like a commercial actor. He doesn't have any problem. It's nothing for his friends, let alone a price reduction.

Fu Tianming asked Li An if he was free in the evening to discuss the wedding program together. Li An had to go even if he didn't have time.

"How much homework is left?"

After lunch, the car was about to take a lunch break, but was stopped by Li An.

Xiaoche made an estimate and said, "I can almost finish writing it in another four hours."

Li An calculated the time and then arranged: "Don't sleep at noon. Try to finish your homework in the afternoon. After finishing it, we will set off together. I will take you home, and then I will go do some errands. You can practice at home tomorrow morning." Qin in the morning, go to Yudong to find me after lunch."

Xiaoche thought for a while: "Then just listen to the teacher."

Li An smiled: "What? I'm not happy."

Xiaoche shook his head: "Teacher, can you have dinner at my house that afternoon?"

Li An said matter-of-factly: "Otherwise, why would I send you back?"

The car bared its teeth!

How could she be unhappy? Of course she was happy to be able to go home, but when he heard that the teacher was going to do some errands just now, he was worried that the teacher would not be able to have a good dinner and might have to drink.

Now that the teacher says he can eat at her home, she has no worries.
-
The afternoon passed in the blink of an eye, and the car completed its weekend homework twenty minutes ahead of schedule.

After Li An finished Lin Guoguo's class, the teacher and student, mother and daughter Wei Fangyuan, left home together.

When Wei Fangyuan heard that Li An was going to Che Lin's place, she directly asked Li An and Che Lin to get in the car.

Along the way, the two siblings were chatting about decoration. Wei Fangyuan asked Li An who was always watching.

This is all thanks to Grandpa Xiaohu. The old man basically drives there by himself every day, leaving Li An and Xu Li alone.

"That's pretty good." Wei Fangyuan has decorated two houses and knows how lucky it is to have an old man willing to help.

The adults talked about adult topics, and the children played about children.

It may not be accurate to say that she is playing with Lin Guoguo, but it is more accurate to say that Sister Xiaoche is playing with Lin Guoguo.

Lin Guoguo took out a doll and asked Sister Xiaoche to comb the doll's hair, and then put a sticker on Sister Xiaoche's hand.

Before the car arrived at Xiaoche's house, sister Xiaoche's left hand was covered with stickers.

Sister Xiaoche is also patient and good-tempered, but she was "tortured" all the way by Lin Guoguo.

Before getting off the bus, Lin Guoguo hadn't had enough fun yet and insisted on asking Sister Xiaoche to go to her house to play.

Lin Guoguo held his arms with both hands, with a bewildered smile on his face.

"Ling Guoguo, let me go immediately." Wei Fangyuan stopped the car and found that Lin Guoguo's hands were covered with stickers. She became angry and said, "Apologise to Sister Che Lin."

Lin Guoguo immediately let go of Sister Xiaoche’s arm and leaned towards Sister Xiaoche in fear. Fortunately, Li An came to Lin Guoguo’s rescue in time, “Sister, what are you doing? You are just playing with the child, isn’t Guoguo’s hand covered? Well."

When Xiaoche saw this, he also spoke to Lin Guoguo and said, "Auntie, I asked Guoguo to put it on my hand."

Although Wei Fangyuan didn't know Xiao Che very well, she had met Xiao Che several times and was a very sensible and steady girl.

Seeing that Che Lin had said this, she couldn't embarrass Lin Guoguo anymore, "If Che Lin does this in the future, don't play with her anymore."

Xiaoche said seriously: "Auntie, I like to play with Guoguo. She has many fun ideas."

Wei Fangyuan couldn't talk about Guoguo anymore. Just as she was looking at Li An, she heard Li An say, "My two children are playing well. What do you think you are meddling in?"

Wei Fangyuan glared at Li An directly, her eyes seemed to say that you should just take good care of him.

Li Anle turned around and asked Guoguo, "Are Guoguo hungry?"

Lin Guoguo nodded: "Hungry."

Li An: "Get off the car. The teacher will invite you to go to Sister Che Lin for some delicious food."

Lin Guoguo hugged Sister Xiaoche's arm again. She was so happy today.

Wei Fangyuan was about to stop her. They were busy doing business just before dinner, but Li An got in front of her: "Brother-in-law is not at home at night, what are you going to do? We can have something together, just in time to try Che Lin." Dad’s craftsmanship.”

Xiaoche: "Yeah! Auntie, I also want to play with Guoguo for a while."

Wei Fangyuan sighed in her heart, they are all girls, look at the girls raised by other people, no wonder Li An and the old man are very fond of Che Lin.

Who doesn't like this kind of child?

Wei Fangyuan first asked Li An to get out of the car with her two children. She parked the car and went to the supermarket to buy some fruit and a box of yogurt.
-
At noon, Lao Che only knew that Li An was coming for dinner in the afternoon, but he didn't know that Professor Wei's daughter would also come with him.

Although Li An had already explained to him that they were just going to have a meal together and let the two children play together, Lao Che couldn't just listen to him. He even came here carrying things, doing this and this!
He quickly asked Sang Ping to tidy up the innermost private room. Li An quickly stopped Sang Ping and said, "Sister-in-law, we are just here for a meal. How can I bring someone over next time if you are like this?"

He looked at Nail and said, "Hurry up and get your master in to cook. We came here on an empty stomach."

Lao Che smiled helplessly and apologized to Wei Fangyuan repeatedly, "Teacher Wei, please sit down quickly, I really didn't know in advance." Wei Fangyuan waved her hand: "Hurry up, I have heard from Li An that your craftsmanship is amazing, and today I finally have the opportunity. Taste it.”

Xiaoche: "Dad, go stir-fry quickly. Guoguo and I are both hungry."

"Hey." Lao Che bent down and asked Guoguo, "Guoguo, what do you want to eat?"

Lin Guoguo said cutely: "Uncle, I want to eat sweet meat."

Ang Lee: "Sweet and sour pork loin, Kung Pao chicken, twice-cooked pork, and four bowls of rice."

Sang Ping had quickly cleared out a large table in the back of the hall. Li An brought a few people to sit down, and Ding Ding came over to ask what they wanted to drink.

"Coconut juice is fine. Go in and tell Nail, put less chili pepper. Guoguo can't eat spicy food."

Nail: "Does Teacher Wei have any taboos?"

Wei Fangyuan: "I don't have any dietary restrictions. We are not in a hurry. We will serve the dishes on other tables first."

Nail: "Just sit down and take a sip of tea first."

Sang Ping brought the coconut juice, and Li An took the teapot, "Sister-in-law, I'll be fine here, you go and do your work."

Wei Fangyuan felt really embarrassed when she saw this scene. Didn't she just come to cause trouble for others?

But there are some things that Che Lin can't say even if she's sitting here.

Li An ordered three dishes, and the old car brought five dishes. The extra dish was the mapo tofu that Li Anlai always made. When Ding Lai served the dishes, he specially explained that this dish was not suitable for Guoguo. eat.

The other dish is tomato sauce shrimp balls specially made for Guoguo. The tender shrimp meat is paired with sweet and sour tomato sauce. If it weren't for the two children, Li An would really want to eat two more.

Perhaps it was because she had fun with Sister Xiaoche today, or perhaps because the food tonight was so delicious, Lin Guoguo took out a much larger portion than usual.

Li An was worried that Lin Guoguo would accumulate food and forcibly ordered Lin Guoguo to put down her chopsticks.

But the chopsticks were put down, but Lin Guoguo was still unwilling to leave after having a full stomach, and wanted to continue playing with Sister Xiaoche.

The Lao Che family is naturally willing to let Guo Guo play here, but this time they can no longer let Guo Guo do it.

In the end, Xiaoche took action. She squatted down and coaxed: "Guoguo, be obedient. My sister has to practice the piano in the evening. My sister has not finished practicing the music assigned by the teacher. I will play with you next week, okay?"

When Xiao Che said that he really extended his hand, he raised his left hand covered with stickers and shook it.

"it is good!"

Lin Guoguo responded and immediately stretched out his right hand with the sticker and shook it.

Several adults laughed when they saw this scene.

Lao Che and his family sent the three of them to the door, and Lin Guoguo reluctantly said goodbye to sister Xiao Che.

As they said goodbye, Wei Fangyuan went to drive, and Li An and Lao Che exchanged a few words.

"It's cold. Let's bring some thick clothes when we let the car go out tomorrow."

"Okay, Teacher Li, so are you. Please put on more clothes when the weather is cold."

Li An nodded: "Open the nail phone to me."

Nailiao didn’t think much, he unlocked the phone and handed it over, “Teacher Li.”

Li An used his mobile phone to transfer two hundred yuan to Ding Ding with one hand, and then used Ding Ding's mobile phone to collect the money with the other hand.

By the time everyone reacted, Li An had already returned the phone to Nail.

"Teacher Li, what are you doing?" Lao Che couldn't laugh or cry.

Li An smiled and said, "I'm here for Nail. Tomorrow morning Nail will marinate four pig's trotters for me. I want a big one."

Nail bared his teeth: "Don't worry."

Li An: "Okay, you guys go in quickly, it's very cold."

"goodbye teacher."

"Goodbye, Teacher Li."

"Teacher Li, please walk slowly."

"Teacher, stop drinking!"
-
Wei Fangyuan sent Li An to the door of Fu Tianming's store.

Lin Guoguo fell asleep on the way, and the two of them planned not to let Lin Guoguo pass by for dinner tomorrow night.

Li An actually felt it was nothing, mainly because of Wei Fangyuan.

First she knew that Che Lin was going to play the piano for the old man tomorrow, and she was worried that Guo Guo would influence Che Lin there.

Secondly, she was also worried that Lin Guoguo would go crazy again tomorrow night and would have to go to school the day after tomorrow.

"Okay, sister, let's meet tomorrow night."

"Wherever you go from tomorrow, I will pick you two up."

"Forget it, sister, I, Yudong, are leaving, and my get out of class ends at almost seven o'clock, so don't worry about us."

"It's okay. I just happened to be taking Guoguo to his grandma's house, so I dropped by."

The two agreed to meet downstairs in Yudong at seven o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and Wei Fangyuan drove away.

Li An stayed at Xiao Ming's mood house all night on Saturday. After listening to Xiao Che's words, he drank a bottle of beer.

It is true that tonight is not a drinking party. Li An knows most of the people here. They are all Fu Tianming's buddies. They all knew each other when they helped him with the Red Mansion Concert.

As for how to arrange the wedding program, Wen Xiao is the director, Fu Tianming is the screenwriter, and the rest are the executors.

In the words of lighting engineer Zhou Song, "We will do whatever you two say."

As brothers, this is their highest level of sincerity.

After some bickering between the director and screenwriter, a preliminary plan was finally discussed.

Li An's visit tonight was really not in vain. He was worried about the bookman's stage lights, so he caught Zhou Song.

After some exchanges between the two, Zhou Song was attracted by Ang Lee's stage creativity, and after listening to Ang Lee's stage description, he immediately understood the importance of lighting for this stage.

In Ang Lee's words, lighting determines the success or failure of this performance.

Later, Ang Lee directly issued an invitation. He hoped that Zhou Song would be the lighting engineer for this show.

Zhou Song was very loyal and agreed to Li An without saying a word.

"Ahem, you two are almost done. I'm fuming with anxiety," Fu Tianming interrupted the two of them, "Can you go down and have a private chat?"

Li An: "Okay, okay, Mr. Fu, please speak."

Fu Tianming: "I'll make a note of what piano you want to play then."

Ang Lee: "For your wedding with your literary director, it must be a Steinway."

Fu Tianming: "Model."

Ang Lee was joking, but who knew Fu Tianming was serious, "Just kidding, just use whatever piano is available in the hotel, just tune it in advance."

Fu Tianming frowned: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up."

Li An smiled bitterly: "Well, then it's B series. It really doesn't have to be so troublesome."

As he said, Li An did think so in his heart, but he knew that Fu Tianming would not be perfunctory.

When the time comes, should he have the car ready to play a tune or two, and also sit in front of the Steinway to help entertain the audience?

It seems like a good social practice.
-
As the cold air continues, the temperature in Chengdu dropped again on Sunday night.

Xu Li was woken up by the cold on Sunday morning. The first thing she heard when she woke up was the sound of the piano outside the house.

She picked up her phone and saw that it was just eight o'clock.

So the question is, what time did Wang Xiaohu get up to practice piano?
