Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1077 337. Children's perspective on art exams and studying abroad
"My mother has something urgent to do."

Wang Xiaohu made up an excuse and urged, "Let's go quickly. Don't you have to practice piano in the morning?"

After being urged by Wang Xiaohu, Xiaoche didn't think any more and said, "Let's take the subway."

"Okay." If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to spend more time alone with Che Lin, Wang Xiaohu would have suggested taking a taxi.

"Wait a moment," Xiaoche said as he put the cat bag in front of him and walked towards the south gate under Wang Xiaohu's puzzled gaze.

"Where are you going?"

"Wait."

Three minutes later, the little car riding a white electric scooter stopped handsomely in front of the stunned Wang Xiaohu.

"What are you still standing there for?" This time it was Xiaoche who urged.

"Aren't we going to take the subway?" Wang Xiaohu's face flushed. Although the seat of the electric car was not small, but!
Xiaoche was about to be killed by Wang Xiaohu's stupidity, "Do you want to walk to the subway station? Hurry up."

"Oh!" Wang Xiaohu took a step forward and rode to the back seat, placing the cat bag filled with tofu pudding between the two of them.

The car was pushed forward and could only move forward. "Are you seated properly?"

"Hold on tight!" Before Wang Xiaohu finished speaking, he felt a strong push on his back, and in the blink of an eye the bike was on the bike path. "Slow down!"

Xiaoche was speechless. How could this be fast? He loosened the accelerator handle and said, "Not as fast as Doubao."

Oddly enough, the little bean bun looked at everything in front of him curiously through the transparent plastic cover and was unusually quiet and well-behaved.

Gradually, Wang Xiaohu got used to it. The warm breeze blew on his face, making it itchy. He even seemed to smell the scent of Xiaoche's school uniform.

A fragrance that is hard to describe, very pleasant.

But after a while, the subway station appeared in front of us.

The car braked: "We're here."

Wang Xiaohu got out of the car: "Can you give me a chance when you come back?"

"What opportunity?" Xiaoche said as he parked the electric car and took out the key.

"I want to try it, too," Wang Xiaohu really wanted to give it a try, "I've never ridden one before."

Xiaoche smiled: "You will definitely be fine, you can ride a bicycle."

Wang Xiaohu: "That's a deal."

Xiaoche nodded: "Let's go."

The pet shop was in Guangyuan District. Erhai guided two lines along the way and walked for another fifteen minutes before arriving.

Doubao was very well behaved along the way, but Douhua kept meowing after getting on the subway, making both children embarrassed to sit.

"Meow!"

Xu Li made an appointment with the store manager the day before yesterday to come here today, and the store manager is waiting for her now.

"Hello, uncle."

"Hello, uncle."

"I already told you to call me brother."

The second child chuckled. They knew the store manager would say this, just like he did the last time he came.

The store manager brought the second child to the infirmary and released the tofu buns and tofu pudding.

As soon as Douhua came out of the cat bag, he got on all fours and tried to crawl under the table. Fortunately, Wang Xiaohu was quick to act.

"Be gentle." Xiaoche complained in a low voice.

The store manager smiled and said, "These two little guys are growing up very fast."

Wang Xiaohu took out Douhua Doubao's growth manual from the cat bag and said, "Uncle."

"Okay." The store manager took it and said, "You two can go out and wait for a while."

The second child came to the corridor and sat down. Wang Xiaohu asked, "Would you like to go eat something later?"

Xiaoche: "Didn't you have breakfast?"

Wang Xiaohu: "I ate a little, but I'm not full. Have you eaten?"

Xiaoche: "I ate. If you are hungry, just buy some bread. It is inconvenient to take them with you."

Wang Xiaohu thought about it and said: "Okay, where are you going to practice piano later?"

Xiaoche: "To the store, what about you?"

Wang Xiaohu: "I have to go back and do my homework. I haven't done any of it over the weekend. Have you finished it?"

Xiaoche: "No, I'll write it tonight."

Wang Xiaohu: "Hey, I wish I could stop doing homework someday. I feel like I don't have enough time now."

If Wang Xiaohu had said this before, Xiaoche would definitely think that Wang Xiaohu didn't like doing homework, but now she also feels this way.

"I don't have to do homework when I go to college, right?" Xiao Che thought for a moment, "It seems that Senior Sister doesn't have to do homework."

Wang Xiaohu: "It's still a long way to go to college."

Xiao Che: "I used to think that college was very far away, but now it doesn't feel that far. In the fall we will be in the second year of junior high school. I remember that the senior sister said that she started preparing for the art exam in the first half of her second year of high school."

Wang Xiaohu counted on his fingers: "Second year of junior high school, third year of junior high school, first year of senior high school, the first half of the second year of senior high school. It really doesn't seem that far away."

Xiaoche: "Sister Luo said that after she started preparing for the art exam, she felt like she wasn't a student anymore."

Wang Xiaohu: “What is that?”

"I don't know either," Xiaoche put his legs together and raised and lowered them, "Maybe he is an art exam candidate?"

Wang Xiaohu: "Are you going to take the art exam?"

Xiaoche: “Probably.”

Wang Xiaohu: "Do you have a university you want to apply to?"

Xiaoche: "Rongyuan."

Wang Xiaohu: "Ah? You want to take the entrance exam for Rongyuan?"

Xiaoche: "What happened to Rongyuan?"

Wang Xiaohu: "I mean, at your level by then, there will definitely be better options."

Xiaoche: "What is the better choice."

Wang Xiaohu: "Huayuan, my teacher's alma mater, Haiyuan, teacher Tang's alma mater, or going abroad, to Vienna, to Germany, aren't these better than Rongyuan?"

Xiao Che didn't think so: "The teacher is from Rongyuan."

Wang Xiaohu was speechless for a moment.

Xiao Che: "Besides, you have to practice piano no matter where you go to school. Staying in Chengdu is close to home and teachers."

Wang Xiaohu absolutely disagrees with this view, even if the other party is Che Lin: "The piano is a Western instrument. I think we should at least go to the hometown of Beethoven and Mozart to experience the local history, culture, customs and people."

"This is helpful for us to understand music and composers."

Xiaoche did not deny what Wang Xiaohu said: "That makes sense."

Wang Xiaohu: "So I think you should study abroad then."

Xiaoche: “You want to go abroad.”

Wang Xiaohu: "Of course I do, but I have to finish my undergraduate studies in China. That's what I think, just like Teacher Qin, Teacher Mu, and Teacher Youyou."

Xiaoche: "Does the conductor have an art exam?"

Wang Xiaohu: “Yes, but there are only two schools in the country that have a command department.”

Xiao Che was puzzled: "Isn't Rongyuan also a conducting major?"

Wang Xiaohu shook his head: "That's a major in the composition department, just like the flute in the orchestra department."

Xiaoche understood: "Huayuan and Haiyuan?"

Wang Xiaohu: "Well, let me tell you a secret."

The car came closer.

Wang Xiaohu lowered his voice and said, "I want to apply to the Ocean University."

Xiaoche: "Who can't I tell?"

Wang Xiaohu: “No one can tell.”

Ever since he attended a master class at the Maritime College during the winter vacation, Wang Xiaohu has liked the atmosphere of the college. There is another reason. Teacher Qin said that the conducting department of the college is better than that of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.

Xiaoche: “Come on.”

Wang Xiaohu smiled confidently: "I will go abroad after I graduate from the Maritime College!"

Xiaoche: “I believe you can do it.”

Wang Xiaohu sighed in his heart. He thought that it would be great if we could study abroad together at that time, but he only dared to say, "Really, you can ask the teacher if you should go abroad at that time."

Xiaoche didn't need to ask, she could guess the teacher's answer. At this moment, the door of the medical room was pushed open, and the second child stood up quickly.

"Okay, come in. If there's nothing unusual in fifteen minutes, you can leave."

Xiaoche: "Thank you, uncle!"

Wang Xiaohu: "Thank you, brother!"

The store manager laughed and made way for the door, and the two children walked in. The Doubao and Douhua, who had just received the vaccination, did not look abnormal, and they were happily playing on the ground chasing each other.

Twenty minutes later, the second child put the two kittens back into the cat bag.

Before leaving, the store manager handed over a small transparent gift bag containing a handful of cat strips and several boxes of canned cat food.

Wang Xiaohu waved his hands quickly.

The store manager said: "Here, this is what your mother exchanged for with her points. You can come for sterilization in a month."
-
The second child left the pet shop carrying the gift bag, and Wang Xiaohu sighed as he left the house.

"It's a bit cruel," Wang Xiaohu felt a little sorry after listening to the store manager's explanation, "They will have no offspring, but sterilization is the best way to extend their lifespan and reduce disease."

Xiao Che thinks she has no say on this issue. Although Doubao is her kitten, it seems that she will have to continue to be raised in Wang Xiaohu's home for a long time.

The store manager also said that once a kitten starts to go into heat, it may urinate everywhere. Xiaoche is not afraid of Doubao doing this in her home, as she can clean it up, but not at Aunt Xu Li's home.

"What do you think?" Wang Xiaohu asked.

Xiaoche: "Listen to Auntie."

Wang Xiaohu: "My mother would definitely want to sterilize them."

Xiaoche: "Then sterilize it."

Wang Xiaohu: "You don't want them to be sterilized either?"

Xiaoche: "I can do anything."

Wang Xiaohu: What a cruel heart! !
Passing by a bookstore, the car suddenly stopped. Wang Xiaohu was stunned, "What happened?"

Then he followed the car's gaze and said, "You want to buy books? Come in and take a look."

Xiaoche: "Maybe next time. It's inconvenient to bring the kitten with you today."

Wang Xiaohu had no choice but to give up when he saw this, and the second child continued to walk towards the subway station.

Passing by a convenience store, Wang Xiaohu said he wanted to go in to buy some bread, and took the opportunity to buy two cups of bubble tea by car on the roadside.

There is another wire, and the second child returns along the same route.

After leaving the subway station again, Wang Xiaohu got on the electric bike eagerly.

Xiaoche naturally sat on the back seat, "Just like riding a bicycle, just twist the handlebars."

Wang Xiaohu had no experience, and he twisted the handlebars to the bottom without any effort. The car suddenly jumped forward, and Wang Xiaohu was so scared that he almost crushed the handlebars to death!
"Ouch!"

The car hit Wang Xiaohu's back of the head!

Wang Xiaohu was so flustered that he didn't care about the pain on the back of his head and anxiously asked if Xiaoche was okay.

"It's okay, it's okay," Xiaoche straightened the cat's bag, rubbed his forehead which was also painful, and continued to teach, "Turn the handle gently, little by little, don't brake suddenly."

This time the car got on the road smoothly.

"I'm sorry," Wang Xiaohu couldn't turn back, "Does it still hurt?"

Xiaoche: "Don't talk, look at the road carefully."

Wang Xiaohu didn't dare to speak anymore.

When he reached the gate of the community, Wang Xiaohu let out a long sigh and gently stopped the car.

"Be good, Doubao Douhua." After gently returning the cat bag to Wang Xiaohu, Xiaoche took over the handlebars and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Wang Xiaohu: "I don't feel any pain anymore, how about you?"

Xiaoche: "I'm still in pain. I won't let you take me anymore."

Wang Xiaohu: "No! Give me another chance next time."

Xiaoche was amused by Wang Xiaohu's aggrieved look and snorted, "Let's go."

"Give me another chance!"

Wang Xiaohu shouted at the handsome back of Xiaoche and secretly hated himself as if he had lost 10 million.

Pulling out his phone, "Mom, I'm downstairs."

After sending a voice message to his mother, Wang Xiaohu added: "Mom, should our family have an electric car?"

Xu Li was busy preparing lunch at home, but she didn't expect her son to come back so soon.

A few minutes later, I heard the door open.

Wang Xiaohu put down the cat bag and washed his hands, then came to the kitchen door: "Everything went well. The store manager said that we can sterilize Doubao Douhua in a month. Mom, should we sterilize Doubao Douhua?"

"Yes." Xu Li turned her head and asked, "Why does our family need an electric car?"

Wang Xiaohu: "It's convenient! Look, who doesn't have an electric bike now? For example, if you go out to buy groceries, it's troublesome to drive, and it's a bit far to walk. With an electric bike, it's different. You can just go downstairs and ride it. It saves time and effort."

Xu Li nodded: "Then buy one."

Wang Xiaohu: "Oh, I'm going to do my homework."

Xu Li was a little confused and turned around to continue her busy work.

In Piano Classroom No. 4, Li An didn't expect the car to come back so quickly.

But now that I'm back, "Find a piano room for yourself."

"Yeah!" Xiaoche planned to continue going to piano room No. 1.

Li An: "Wait, you're not going back with me at noon, right?"

Xiao Che knew that the teacher had classes at home in the afternoon, and he couldn't practice the piano during the class. "Teacher, I'll go home by myself this afternoon."

Li An: "Okay, then you can eat somewhere nearby at noon. You need to eat."

Car: "Yeah!"
-
After Lin Guoguo’s class in the afternoon, Lao Wei said he wanted to go and see Li Ang’s new home.

Ang Lee took the old man to 2201 for a tour. The old man said that the house was nice and the view was great.

Lao Wei: "When will the renovation start?"

Li An: "The construction will start tomorrow, and we will start by demolishing it."

Lao Wei: “It’s all designed.”

Li An: "The design is ready, and the floor plan is also ready. Would you like to take a look?"

Lao Wei smiled: "I don't understand it either. Wait until you pretend to be able to do it and then I'll come and see. We're leaving too, Guoguo."

Lin Guoguo: "See you next week, teacher!"

Li An: "Guoguo, wait a minute. I'll drive you back."

Old Wei waved his hand and said, "Enrollment is over, and the school is on track. Your father is here to help you with the decoration. It's almost time for you to practice your music. There's less than three months left."

Li An: "Yeah, don't worry, teacher, that's what I planned too."

Lao Wei was still worried: "How about this, I'll give you half a month. In another two weeks, I'll bring Guoguo to class, and you can go to class after Guoguo finishes."

Guoguo burst into laughter.

".Okay, teacher." Not to mention, Li An actually felt a sense of urgency.

Lao Wei: “No problem?”

Lee An: “No problem.”

Lao Wei: "I'm talking about Beethoven's fourth piece, the three complete movements. Don't just make up a random piece or just play one movement to fool me."

Li Anhan: "Can I fool you with what you said?"

Old Wei Le: "You kid, have you ever done this kind of thing before?"

Guoguo burst into laughter again. She is indeed a teacher. She has learned it! -
After returning home, Li An called Xiaoche and asked him to come back for dinner.

Then a message came in.

'Thank you, Ang'

Just four words, no more punctuation marks.
-
Li An looked at the message on his phone and smiled, then replied after a moment: Congratulations!
Ten minutes ago, Tian Tao finished the interview, came out and called home to report the good news, then planned to go to the bathroom and go home.

As a result, I met today’s main interviewer Xiangnan in the bathroom.

Xiangnan took the initiative to say something polite to him, which really made him flattered. He knew that Xiangnan was not only the main interviewer today, but also Rongai's manager.

But then Xiangnan's words hit Tian Tao on the head like a hammer.

"Your old classmates think very highly of you."

Old classmates? Tian Tao had almost no social circle. Who else could be his old classmates who could talk to the top management of Rongai?

Tian Tao never expected that things would turn out like this.
