Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 872 132. Youyou received a letter, Xiaoche treated the green tea!

For dinner, Li An and Xiao Che cleaned up the leftover takeout from lunch.

During the meal, Ang Lee asked Xiaoche what the two of them were laughing about the whole afternoon.

The car replied: "A secret between children."

Li An: "You make me feel like you two are forming a clique."

Speaking of small groups, Xiao Che was excited: "Teacher, Xiao Bei and I formed a group."

Li An asked suspiciously: "What combination?"

Xiaoche: "Secret!"

Li An: "Well done. To be honest, I, your teacher, also formed a group with two friends back then."

Xiaoche was immediately curious: "What combination?!"

Li An: "You speak first!"

Xiaoche said coquettishly: "Teacher, you speak first!"

Li An thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, it's a bit embarrassing."

Shame!? Xiaoche wanted to know more, "Teacher~ Teacher~ Good teacher~"

Who can stop this?
Ang Lee took the risk, and it was also his fault, because he was the one who kept the kid in suspense in the first place.

"Ahem, our group is called Three Wolves."

next second.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha--"

Li An: "It's your turn."

Xiao Che laughed for a long time. As soon as she caught her breath, she asked, "Teacher, can I cheat for once?"

Ang Lee: "."

Who did the child learn bad things from?
-
After playing and having fun, it’s time to practice the piano in the evening.

The teacher and student practiced the piano until ten o'clock.

Tonight Ang Lee continued to play Czerny + Moskovsky. Every time when he was in high spirits, something that would spoil the fun would always pop up in his mind.

It has been four days, and he has posted to WeChat Moments twice during this period, but still no teacher has contacted him.

He wondered if it was because he hadn't described the treatment clearly?

He will definitely not treat the teacher unfairly. He has some confidence in this.

Never mind, I’ll post another one tonight.

After the car finished playing the last Mazurka, Ang Lee indicated that they should stop here for today.

"Linlin, it's the same question from the day before yesterday. When you finally return to the main chord, it doesn't matter whether you are happy or sad. I told you, it's all fine, but you have to face it calmly."

Xiaoche then played the ending again, and this time she intentionally prolonged the tail note, leaving a lingering sound in the music.

"not good."

If it was another child, even Yang Shuangyu, Li Ang would have praised him, but for Xiao Che, this was far from enough.

"Forget it. You're tired today too. Think about it when you get back. I'll leave you a question to think about. What happened at the end? Is there anything new?"

The car felt it immediately.

"Stop and think again. The ending is different from the middle of a paragraph. It must be clear."

Xiaoche: "Yeah! Thank you for your hard work, teacher."

Li An laughed: "Why should I work so hard?"

Li An stretched his body and looked around but didn't see his phone. "Go get my phone from the coffee table."

The car went away with a thump thump sound.

"Any information?"

"Have!"

Xiaoche took the phone back, Li An took it and looked at it, there were three messages.

"Teacher, I'm going to boil milk."

"Go, be safe."

Li An opened WeChat, glanced around and then sat up.

Lin Youyou: Haven’t you recruited enough people yet?
Eighty-one: Don’t even mention it, there isn’t even a serious consultation. If you have the right candidate, don’t hesitate, the treatment will definitely be generous!
moment.

Lin Youyou: Why are things getting worse and worse?

Ba Wanyi: Hey, I boasted to the teacher before that I was worried that there would be too many teachers applying for the job. Now it’s all a joke. I’m afraid that he will bring Guoguo to class tomorrow and ask me again. I don’t even have the face to tell him.

Lin Youyou: Tell me your requirements.

Ba Wanyi: You want to come back?!

Lin Youyou: You are so bold, hurry up and tell me, I have something to do later.

Li An directly opened the chat history with Lao Pei from the day before, and forwarded it after making some minor deletions.

740: The candidate must have good character, be hard-working, be patient in teaching, have rich experience, at least be able to pass the exams, have a decent image, and preferably be a Chengdu native.

Lin Youyou: Anything else?
Ba Wanyi: That’s it for now. Do you have a suitable candidate?

Lin Youyou: Do you know why you can’t recruit teachers?
Eighty-one: The tuition fees here are high, and there are abundant resources on various platforms.

Lin Youyou: How do you charge?

Eighty-one thousand: 320 per class, 60 minutes, the teacher takes %.

Lin Youyou: Are there any students now?

Eighty-one: Conservatively speaking, we should be able to recruit about forty people in one phase.

Lin Youyou: Is it okay for outsiders?
Eighty-one: If the conditions are strong enough, it is not impossible. It depends on his specific situation. I also have to consider the cost of training a teacher.

Lin Youyou: I understand. Please reserve a spot first and I will give you a reply within a week.

Ba Wanyi: Is he in Chengdu now? Otherwise, I can contact him directly for an interview. You can rest assured on my side.

Lin Youyou: There’s nothing to worry about. She is in Shenzhen now and the situation there is more complicated. Just wait for me to believe it.

8001: Thank you so much!

Lin Youyou: Don’t have too high expectations for now. I’m busy now.

Ba Wanyi: Yeah, I’ll wait for you to believe it.

Finally, there is some progress.

Li An put down the piano cover, tidied up the study, turned off the lights and returned to the living room.

In the living room, Xiao Che was still drinking milk. Li An asked Xiao Che to drink slowly, "I'll wash up first."

"good night, teacher."

"Good night, Linlin."
-
The next morning, Xiao Che got up early, had breakfast and did her homework first. Before Marco came to class, she poured a cup of hot water for Marco and placed it in the study. She did not come out when Marco came to class.

She came out only after Marco finished class.

"Hello, God of Cars, thank you for the breakfast water."

"Huh? You haven't had breakfast yet. I'll get you a piece of bread."

"No, no, I have some in my bag. I didn't have time to eat it this morning."

Xiao Ma was very hurt about not being able to attend the luxurious take-out lunch yesterday.

Fortunately, Xiao Ma got the pentatonic part he had been longing for, and he finally got his revenge.

"music score."

Just then Li An came out of the study room holding a sheet of music. Marco scratched his head and ran over, "Thank you, teacher."

Before the get out of class ended, Xiao Ma was only thinking about the Spanish dance music score and forgot the score he had practiced in that class.

Lee Ang: "Put the music score in place."

Upon hearing this, Marco put down his music bag, took out the music folder, and carefully stuffed the music pages into it.

"What kind of music score is this?" Xiao Che was a little curious. Wang Xiaohu and A Liu often took such A4 single-page music scores and asked the teacher to teach them how to write extracurricular music. This was the first time he had seen it here with Marco.

Marco: "Piano accompaniment of birds and cicadas."

Car: "Wow."

Ma Ke said shyly, "There's a class activity on New Year's Day, and I'm going to play with a cello classmate."

Xiaoche: "Great, great."

At this moment, the door to the living room rang. Marco was also in a hurry to go to the Mathematical Olympiad class. "Goodbye, teacher. Bye, God of Cars."

Xiaoche: "Bye!"

Ang Lee did not forget to remind Marco: "Go back and practice well." Marco went to open the door. Ang Lee looked at the car, and the car stuck out its tongue.

"It seems that you are the only one left alone this time." When Marco said this to him, his heart skipped a beat. Of course, he was happy for every child who could participate in the New Year's Day activities, but at the same time he also felt a little sorry for Xiaoche.

The corner of Xiaoche's mouth drew a cute little arc, "I have to prepare for the competition."

Li An nodded. He could see that Xiao Che felt a little regretful, but since the child said so, "Yeah, come on!"

"Bye, classmate Qiao."

"Goodbye, Ma!"

At this time, there were sounds of conversation coming from the door, and then the door closed, and Qiao Zhizhi appeared in the living room.

"Good morning, teacher. Good morning, Sister Linlin."

Xiaoche's helplessness was real, but his enthusiasm was also genuine. "Good morning, Zhizhi," he turned his head and glared, "Eighty thousand."

Ba Wan was so scared that he quickly ran away from under Qiao Zhizhi.

Li An: "Come on, Zhizhi."
-
While Qiao Zhizhi was in class, Xiaoche continued to concentrate on doing his homework.

Occasionally, when she put down her pen, she thought about the questions the teacher left for her last night. Everyone was preparing for their performances at the end of the year, so she had to work harder.

After writing the poetry excerpts, this week's homework is completed.

Qiao Zhizhi still had ten minutes before get out of class ended, so Xiaoche got her a cup of hot water in advance.

When Qiao Zhizhi came out of class, she immediately brought the cart over and said, "The water temperature should be just right."

She was so moved that she took the water and thanked Xiaoche repeatedly. Xiaoche smiled and said it was okay.

Li An: "Zhizhi, you can try to speed up when you go back this afternoon."

"Okay, teacher!" Qiao Zhizhi responded and drank the hot water in the cup in her hand, "Sister Che Lin, tell me where to wash the cup."

"No need, just give it to me," Qiao Zhizhi asked the same question last time after drinking water. Xiaoche thought it was an easy thing for her to do.

But this time, Qiao Zhizhi insisted on washing the cup herself. She couldn't let Sister Linlin wash the cup for her anymore. Sister Linlin had already poured water for her because she was kind. It was her right to wash her own cup.

Li An interrupted, "Zhizhi is right. Xiaoche, take Zhizhi to the kitchen. Also, from now on, everyone should wash their own cups. Don't worry about them."

Xiaoche nodded when he heard this.

It was the first time that Qiao Zhizhi walked into the teacher's kitchen. She was quite curious. "Sister Linlin, Wang Xiaohu said you cook here every day."

"How can I do it every day? Don't listen to his nonsense," Xiao Che thought to himself, Wang Xiaohu is really something, "I occasionally do it a few times a week, but most of the time it's the teacher who does it."

"That's amazing," Qiao Zhizhi walked quickly to the faucet and turned it on. Seeing the water rushing, she quickly turned down the water. "I only know how to cook instant noodles. Can you teach me how to cook if there's a chance, Sister Linlin?"

Xiao Che laughed: "I'm not very good. If you want to learn how to cook, I suggest you watch the adults cook. It's easy to learn. Just be careful when using knives and heating oil."

Qiao Zhizhi sighed: "My parents don't cook, and my aunt won't let me be around when she cooks."

Xiao Che didn't react at first. What happened? Auntie? Oh, it should be the nanny. "During the winter vacation, if you participate in the training camp during the winter vacation, there will definitely be a chance. I will teach you."

Qiao Zhizhi’s mind immediately emerged with the circle of friends that Wang Xiaohu posted yesterday. She was so envious of the happy scene of her friends having lunch together at noon. Then she remembered that Wang Xiaohu had told her about how they cooked their own meals at the teacher’s house this summer. How happy she was!

"Okay! Then we have a deal. Thank you Sister Linlin!"

"It's okay, it's okay. And just call me Che Lin, no need to call me sister."

Seeing Qiao Zhizhi finish washing the cup, Xiaoche subconsciously picked up the rag she often used to wipe her hands and handed it to her, but she immediately wanted to take her hand back in embarrassment, although she would wash the rag after each use.

"Thank you!" Without waiting for Xiaoche to retract his hand, Qiao Zhizhi took the blue rag and wiped her hands dry. "Sister Linlin, where do you put the rag?"

"Just let it go." This scene made Xiaoche's favorable impression of Qiao Zhizhi increase a lot.

The two little girls returned to the living room, and Qiao Zhizhi put her cup back in place, "Goodbye, teacher, goodbye, Sister Linlin!"

Then he bent down and waved to Ba Wan, "Goodbye, Ba Wan."

The teacher and the student sent Qiao Zhizhi away, and Xiaoche said softly, "Teacher, Zhizhi is so nice."

Ang Lee: "Zhizhi has some rare qualities. She is a very good girl."

Xiaoche: “Yes.”

Then Xiao Che told the teacher what happened in the kitchen just now. "I can see that she probably doesn't have much experience in doing housework, but she noticed that the faucet was turned up and then turned down. Wang Xiaohu wanted to turn the faucet off."

Li An: "Wang Xiaohu, don't mention it. You said Qiao Zhizhi has an aunt at home?"

"Well, it should be the nanny," and then, "Teacher, she doesn't mind using a rag to wipe her hands."

Li Anle: "Why are you so angry?"

Xiao Che said angrily, "Teacher, I have a primary school classmate who looks a lot like Qiao Zhizhi. She is also very pretty, with very white hands. The school uniform she wears every day looks like new, but she never cleans the classroom. Every time it is her turn to clean, she says she is not feeling well. And there are several boys in our class who always rush to help her clean, but she refuses at first and says no."

As he spoke, Xiao Che raised his voice and imitated, "No, no, I'm fine, don't, I can do it myself after a while of rest."

After rolling his eyes, Xiao Che's tone returned to normal: "Hearing the way she spoke, it felt like she was going to faint at any moment. As a result, the boys started to help her clean up, and she went to play with others."

Hahaha, Li An has already imagined that scene, "Logically speaking, this kind of girl should not be very popular with other girls in the class."

Xiao Che shook his head: "No, she brings a lot of snacks every day, and there are several girls around her every day, but she only gives snacks to a few of them at a time, and gives them to the others the next day."

Li An was surprised: "I'll go."

Xiao Che explained: "Teacher, I hate her not because there are boys who take the initiative to clean up for her, but because there are people around her every day. Although she is very pretentious, it has nothing to do with me."

Li An came back to his senses. Yes, he knew Xiao Che's character. How could Xiao Che take such a person and such a thing to heart? "What's the grudge between you two?"

Xiao Che: "One time during physical education class, she wanted to go to the bathroom. I had some paper in my pocket, but I didn't know if anyone else had any. But no one gave it to her, so I called her and she ran over. Teacher, you know I didn't talk much to my classmates at that time, and everyone looked at me. I felt awkward, so I thought to myself, she should take the paper and leave. But when she saw the paper I took out, she asked me if I had any other paper."

"Indeed, the paper was a little crumpled in my pocket, but it was clean, and she looked disgusted by it."

Li An was already a little unhappy when he heard this. Although it was a thing of the past, he still couldn't help but get angry, "And then?"

Xiaoche chuckled and said, "I just asked her loudly if she wanted to poop."

Li An was stunned for a moment, and then his mind was filled with the laughter on the playground. He raised his hand and gave a thumbs up: "That's cruel!"

Xiaoche: "She insisted on delivering herself to the door."

After laughing, Li An sighed: "Although she deserved it, it is somewhat dangerous to offend a girl like this."

Xiaoche: "If she has the ability, she can come again."

Li An: "People like this are not afraid of her doing it openly, but they are afraid of her doing bad things behind her back."

Xiaoche: "Then I can't spoil her."

Ang Lee didn't know what to say for a moment. He knew the ruthlessness in Xiao Che's bones. If we want to talk about this trait, we have to look at it from both the positive and negative sides. All we can say is that each has its pros and cons.

I hope that Xiaoche will encounter fewer bad people in the future, and I also hope that bad people will have some self-awareness and not run into trouble.

"Wait," Li An realized a problem belatedly, "You didn't have a bad impression of Qiao Zhizhi because of this girl at the beginning, right?"

Xiao Che hurriedly explained: "No, teacher. I had a good impression of Zhizhi from the beginning. It's just that just now in the kitchen, Zhizhi reminded me of that girl. Zhizhi looks very similar to that girl. I mean the way she dresses."

That's good. Li An nodded: "Speaking of this issue, you too, should pay more attention to your image in the future. You are such a grown-up girl, but you still use a rag to wipe your hands. How can the rag smell so good?"

Xiaoche touched his nose and looked a little embarrassed, but not much.

"Silly," Li An looked at his watch, "Simple lunch?"

Xiaoche: “Yeah!”

To put it simply, just cook half a block of hot pot base + various meatballs and vegetables in one pot.

Homemade spicy hot pot.

The teacher and the student worked together, and in twenty minutes a pot of fragrant spicy hot pot was served.

Before the start, Ang Lee asked Xiaoche to bring the tablet computer. Regarding the questions he left for Xiaoche to think about last night, he planned to let Xiaoche watch a video in which Professor Huang talked about the closing lines of works from the Romantic period. He thought that the video was particularly good.

Maybe this video can give Xiaoche some inspiration.

"The teacher's account has been logged in."

Xiaoche handed the tablet to Li An, who directly searched the history on the video account and found Huang Ming Piano, which was being broadcast live.

On the screen, a female teacher was chattering away introducing hundreds of classical piano pieces. Xiaoche looked up and said, "Teacher Tang isn't here again."

"Yes."

Ang Lee was also quite puzzled as he hadn't seen Lao Tang's live broadcast for ten days.

After finding the video he was looking for in the video account, Li Ang clicked play and then put the tablet on the shelf.

start.

While eating, Li An took out his mobile phone, took a video and sent it to Lao Tang.

Ba Wanyi: Have you taken a break recently? I haven’t seen you live for a long time.

After a while, Lao Tang replied: I'm so tired, I can't do this job anymore.

Li An frowned, wondering how difficult the job must be to make Lao Tang say such a thing.

Ba Wanyi: What’s going on?

Lao Tang: It’s hard to explain. Hey, are you busy?

Ba Wanyi: I'm having dinner with my kids. Are you free later? If you are, I'll call you.

Lao Tang: Ok ok! Just in time for me to make some instant noodles.
