Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1075 335. Just one more sound

After some discussion, the three of them were still discussing what to eat, and ten minutes passed.

Li An: "How about we order takeout?"

Lao Tang: “Agree.”

Mu Xin: “Agree.”

But what can I order for takeout?

Lao Tang and his partner expressed their hope that Ang Lee could give them a surprise.

The only surprise Ang Lee could think of was a family bucket. If he couldn't decide what to eat, he would definitely choose a hamburger.

While waiting for the surprise, Lao Tang talked about his morning class with Zhang Yahui.

There are some optimistic aspects, for example, the children are smart and obedient, and their state in class is more stable than Lao Tang originally thought.

If he had not known about Zhang Yahui's situation in advance, based only on today's class, Lao Tang would never have thought that this was a child who had experienced domestic violence.

But the pessimistic aspects are also quite serious. Zhang Yahui cannot open her hands or lift her fingers.

"If we want to continue, we have to start from the beginning." Lao Tang said truthfully, "Otherwise, this child will end here."

Li An: "Let me talk to her father."

"Let me do it," Old Tang said without fear of Zhang Dong, "After all, I am the child's teacher."

Li An thought about it and said, "Okay, if things don't go well, we'll talk about it later."

Mu Xin: "Is this man really a teacher at the school?"

Lao Tang: "Yes, I asked her indirectly today, and she said her father is a music teacher at No. 21 Primary School."

Li An: "It's still a key primary school."

Mu Xin: "Tsk tsk, this is so scary. You can't tell from the appearance of this kind of person."

The three were chatting when they heard laughter coming from outside the door.

Seeing Haitao and his group coming back with the children, the three of them ended the discussion.

"I've eaten?"

Li An asked Wang Xiaohu face to face.

Wang Xiaohu patted his stomach and said, "I only ate one burger, but Che Lin ate two!"

Li An's gaze followed to Xiao Che's face.

With just one glance, he knew that Xiaoche's condition had been adjusted. "Take a rest after eating."

"Teacher, I don't want to rest anymore," Xiao Che wanted to go up and practice the piano directly.

Li An nodded and said, "Go ahead."

Xiaoche and Wang Xiaohu waved goodbye and went upstairs.

Xu Li came out from the front desk with her bag in hand. "Let's go too."

"Yeah!" It's time for Wang Xiaohu to go to the conducting class.

"Goodbye, teacher. Goodbye, Teacher Tang. Goodbye, Teacher Mu. Goodbye, Aunt Xiaoyun. Goodbye, Teacher Zheng."

After saying goodbye, Wang Xiaohu looked at Zhang Miao and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for lunch!"

Zhang Miao: "Thank you for the joke."

Speaking of Wang Xiaohu's joke, Wang Xiaohu praised it again in public.

This caused everyone to laugh again.

"Remember to ask your teacher Qin about the Lantian Symphony Orchestra this afternoon."

"understand!"

With the teacher’s “mission”, Brother Xiaohu left accompanied by his mother.

"Boss, I'm leaving too." Zhang Miao came to compile the rosters of each part in the morning. When he and Haitao were about to go out for dinner, they ran into the two children coming down from upstairs.

Li An: "Thank you for your hard work. Please notify the group again. The class will officially start on Tuesday. Let the teachers and drivers confirm the pick-up location."

Zhang Miao: "Got it. Bye everyone."

"Bye." Mu Xin, Lao Tang and Zhang Miao waved their hands.

Haitao walked Zhang Miao to the door, and when he came back, he had a bucket in his hand. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Lao Tang: “What a big surprise.”

Li An: "Don't eat it."

Mu Xin: “Hahahaha.”

Hai Tao: "Zhang Miao also said he would bring it to you."

Mu Xin: "Why didn't you bring it to us!"

Haitao: "I didn't get any bonus."

Old Tang immediately thought of the rewards that Li An promised to Zhang Miao and other seniors for reaching the enrollment target before the book people started recruiting students. "Tsk tsk, 200 per person. This is going to be a big loss."

Li An: "Not really, not really. Everyone deserves it."

Haitao: "We should let Lao Liu treat us, as he recruited the most students this time."

Li An: "Then you can coordinate it?"

Mu Xin Lao Tang: “.”

Haitao: "Leave it to me."

After a short lunch break, piano classroom No. 4 became lively again as the children arrived for afternoon classes.

During this period, Lin Youyou came over and brought a stack of music scores.

Because I had to catch a plane, I had to leave after only five minutes.

Li An, Mu Xin, Lao Tang Haitao and others saw Lin Youyou off on the roadside. Before leaving, Mu Xin and Lin Youyou hugged each other again.

"Let us know when you arrive."

Li An really didn't expect that Lin Youyou would come to see everyone before leaving.

"Well, get busy."

After making a gesture to make a phone call, Lin Youyou got into the car.

It seems that Lin Youyou is always like this, coming lightly and leaving lightly.

Lao Tang sighed in his heart. In fact, he and Mu Xin had already had dinner with Lin Youyou last night.

Everyone returned to the store, and Li An flipped through the music scores that Lin Youyou had sent. Most of them were niche works that were not available in China, including solo and duet works.

It is suitable for enriching children's learning beyond exams.

"Thanks."

Li Ang muttered as he put all the music scores on the bookshelf.
-
At 6:30 in the afternoon, Ang Lee drove his car back home.

On the way home, neither the teacher nor the student took the initiative to mention anything, as if nothing had happened.

It was not until Li An was cooking that Xiaoche, who was helping to peel leeks, suddenly said, "Teacher, I want to discuss something with you."

Li An turned his head when he heard the voice.

Xiaoche also stopped what he was doing: "Teacher, I want to stop the evening self-study before the Xiao Xiao competition is over."

"No problem." Li An smiled, turned around and continued to get busy.

Xiao Che was a little surprised by the teacher's reaction. He looked at the teacher's back and opened his mouth for a moment, "Teacher, you won't be angry, will you?"

Li An: "Why are you so angry? Aren't there many students in your class who don't attend evening self-study?"

Xiaoche: "Thank you, teacher."

moment.

Li An: "Linlin, think about it carefully. If this happens, it is very likely that you will not be able to attend evening self-study classes anymore."

Another moment.

Car: "Yeah."

Li An: "Okay, call now."

Xiao Che didn't know that he was also helping Ang Lee make a decision invisibly.

As to whether Xiaoche should attend evening self-study classes, Li An and Laoche discussed the issue on the phone more than once.

Lao Che’s attitude is very clear: listen to Ang Lee.

Ang Lee has never dared to make this decision, firstly because he felt it was too early for Xiao Che, and secondly because he still had a little fantasy that Xiao Che could learn both piano and piano. Now that Xiao Che has made the decision, Ang Lee has nothing to say.

Children are growing up and have their own ideas. As teachers or parents, we should respect them.

Besides, the car will have to face this choice sooner or later.

Rather than waiting until the day you have to, it’s better to do it early.

There was a crackling sound as Ang Lee started cooking, and Xiao Che stood obediently beside the teacher and watched.

"Linlin, go outside."

Xiaoche shook her head. At this moment, she felt that she really needed a teacher.

Li An understood, but Li An thought that what Xiao Che needed more at this time might not be him.
-
After dinner, Li An turned on the speakerphone and made a phone call to the old car in front of the small car.

After a few words, the two decided that Xiaoche would no longer have to go to evening self-study classes. Laoche would go to school on Monday to get Xiaoche the paperwork to attend evening self-study classes as a day student.

Xiao Che breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it was over. Then she heard the teacher ask on the phone, "Is Sister Sang busy right now?"

The car became nervous in an instant.

Lao Che on the phone, "No hurry, no hurry, Mr. Li, please wait a moment."

After a moment, Sang Ping's voice appeared, "Tell me what happened to Teacher Li."

Li An: "Hey, Sister Sang, this is what happened. You already know the date of Linlin's finals, right?"

Sang Ping: “Yeah.”

Li An: “It’s indeed a coincidence.”

Sang Ping smiled and said, "Yes, yes."

Li An: "Linlin is a little nervous now, worried that she won't get a good grade."

After hearing Li An's words, Sang Ping immediately asked with concern, "Is she not feeling well these past two days?"

Facing the teacher's gaze, Xiaoche shook his head.

"Very good." Li An continued on the phone, "But this child, as you know, has changed a lot in the past year or so. You know what I mean."

Sang Ping: "I know, Mr. Li, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Li An: "It's not a bother, it's not a bother. I mean you can take some time to give her a call and ask about her. In fact, the person she needs most right now is you."

Aunt Sang: "I wanted to call her last night, but I was afraid it would interfere with her homework and piano practice. Oh, I should have called her last night."

Hearing Aunt Sang's self-blaming tone, Xiao Che shook his head even more vigorously.

Li An laughed: "No one expected this. You said this child reacted so strongly. In the end, he was worried about it and wanted to get a good grade on the 23rd."

When Sang Ping heard what Li Ang said, she felt mixed emotions.

Li An: "Just now in the kitchen, she suddenly told me that she didn't want to go to the evening self-study class. I know why she was worried that she wouldn't have enough time to practice the piano next time."

"I really didn't expect her to do it so suddenly. After the evening self-study class, she really didn't have much time to practice the piano. But she didn't mention anything to me. Now that the competition schedule is out, she can't sit still."

"I won't say more. I'll leave the rest to you."

Sang Ping: "Thank you, Teacher Li. Is she still practicing piano tonight?"

Li An: "She has been training for a whole day, let her rest at night."

Sang Ping: "Okay, Mr. Li, I'm sorry to bother you again. I'll call her later. Do you think it's okay?"

Li An smiled: "You are a mother and you ask me, I can't interfere in your mother and daughter's affairs."

It has to be said that Ang Lee's use of the term "mother and daughter" made Sang Ping and Xiao Che on both ends of the phone fall into an indescribable emotion.

Li An: "Sister Sang, listen to me. We are no longer strangers. To be honest, you don't have to be so cautious. The child is growing up. She knows better than anyone else who treats her well. But a child is just a child after all. You should be more proactive."

"I don't care what others think. To me, you are Che Lin's mother."

Sang Ping: "Thank you, Teacher Li. Thank you."

Listening to Aunt Sang's slightly trembling voice, Xiao Che's mind flashed back to the various scenes of her interactions with Aunt Sang from childhood to the present. The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt.

She was so uncomfortable and regretful, why didn't she do it earlier.
Li An: "Okay, Sister Sang, please get busy. It's not a big deal. Linlin went downstairs to buy something. I think she will be up soon."

Sang Ping: "Yes, Mr. Li, you should get busy too. I'll call you later."

After hanging up the phone, Li An also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he looked at the car and smiled, "What's that expression? Are you happy or aggrieved?"

Xiaoche burst into laughter and shook his head like a rattle.

"Hey, Linlin," Li An immediately changed his tone to gossipy, "Have you never had a moment when you wanted to call me mom?"

Seeing that Xiaoche was still silent, Li An nodded thoughtfully: "Never."

Xiaoche was anxious: "Yes!"

Li An laughed out loud, "Is this true?"

Xiao Che was so angry. It was obvious that the teacher did it on purpose. He sobbed and muttered, "The teacher is bullying me."

Li An: "I didn't bully you, you can't tell it yourself."

Xiaoche refused and said stubbornly: "I wanted to scream many times."

Li An: "What's your name?"

Car: “.”

Li An: "You see, you just can't yell, even the two of us can't yell."

After a pause, he said, "Let me tell you, the word mother is very magical. Look how old the teacher is. When your grandma comes, I call her mother every day."

"It's not because I will have food to eat when I call mom, nor that I won't have to wash my clothes when I call mom. It's because I want to call mom, because when I call mom, I feel like I'm still a child. No one doesn't want to be a child. Teachers also want to be children all their lives, but each of us will inevitably grow up."

"But as long as we shout 'Mom' in front of our mother, we are just children at that moment."

"This is the magic of mother. Try Linlin and trust the teacher."

The more Xiaoche listened, the faster her heartbeat became. Facing the teacher's smiling, encouraging gaze, she seemed to have sensed something and her legs could not help but tremble slightly.

But at this moment, Ba Wan jumped out from somewhere and jumped onto the sofa.

"Meow!"

A meow ruined the entire atmosphere!
"Get out of here!"

With a shout of "Get out!", the living room was instantly filled with the laughter of the teacher and the student.

"Hey." Li An stood up in frustration, "Never mind, never mind, I'm going to call my mom."

As he said that, he picked up his phone and walked towards the study with arrogant steps.

The car held Ba Wan for a while and then returned to the cabin.

An hour later, Xiaoche, who was doing his homework, suddenly put down his pen.

He picked up the phone next to the desk, found Aunt Sang's number and dialed it after a moment.

About five seconds later, the phone was picked up. "Hey, Linlin."

Xiao Che opened his mouth, and for a moment he was so nervous that he didn't know what to say, "Auntie Sang, are you busy?"

Immediately, a caring question came from the phone, "No hurry, Linlin, what's wrong?"

moment.

"I, I'm fine," Xiao Che said as her mind was in a mess. She realized that she seemed to have never called Aunt Sang suddenly before. Every time, it was when she really had something to do or her father's phone was not reachable.

"I'm fine, Auntie Sang," Xiao Che suddenly remembered the scene when the teacher called grandma, "I just practiced the piano all day and will take a rest tonight, so I called you."

On the phone, "Just relax during your break. Did you practice well today?"

"I practiced very well. I practiced for seven hours today!" As Xiaoche spoke, he gradually relaxed and recounted everything that happened today in one breath.

Including what I had for lunch and the scene of cooking with the teacher in the evening.

Then we talked back and forth on both ends of the phone, and half an hour passed quietly.

It was the first time that Xiaoche had such a long phone call with Aunt Sang. Xiaoche really felt an unprecedented happiness.

Sang Ping smiled: "Go and relax, Linlin. It's getting hot, so remember to change your clothes."

"Well! Good night!" Xiaoche paused, as if something foreign was stuck in his throat. "Good night, Aunt Sang. You should also go to bed early."

Just a moment away!!
Then she hung up the phone quickly, turned around and buried her head on the pillow.

It was like he was really shy, but also like something else.

A teacher who was leaning against the door frame outside the door smiled and shook his head softly.

What a pity~~
