Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1183 443 Arlene: Everyone is under pressure in May!

Chapter 1183 443. Arlene: Everyone is under pressure in May!

He dropped his phone and quickly got up.

On the way back, she was so busy thinking about Wang Xiaohu that she almost forgot that she still had some homework to do.

Fortunately, I remembered it!

She had already selected the content for the excerpt, which was a short story about the young Liszt from the Ten Lectures on Music History.

The story is about Beethoven in his later years attending a concert of the young Liszt. At the end of the concert, Beethoven went on stage and kissed Liszt, and from then on Liszt became famous in Europe.

Teacher Gao said that you should just excerpt what you like, and you don’t have to stick to various literary classics.

Xiaoche likes this kind of story very much.

It feels great!

She couldn't say that she felt involved in the story, but she really enjoyed reading this kind of short story.

In less than half an hour, Xiaoche finished copying this short story of 700 words.

After quietly packing her bag and returning to bed, she picked up her phone and saw the message Wang Xiaohu had sent her twenty minutes ago.
Wang Xiaohu: Thank you, A-Lin! Let’s work hard together! Good night!

From this message, we can see that Wang Xiaohu's mood seems to have improved a bit.

She just avoided some questions, such as what she mentioned in the message, "I don't know what's wrong with you."

Xiaoche's original intention of sending this was that if Wang Xiaohu took the initiative to say something to her, she would help Wang Xiaohu share some of the burden.

Since Wang Xiaohu avoided it, she had no other choice for the time being.

Come on, brother.

However, avoidance is also a kind of acquiescence. In Xiaoche's opinion, Wang Xiaohu acquiesced that something had happened.

From this perspective, Wang Xiaohu was not hiding anything from her.
-
The alarm clock beside his pillow rang early in the morning, and Xiaoche sat up smartly.

Then the whole person seemed to be completely awake.

She didn't sleep well last night and kept having dreams.

One moment she dreamed that a very tall giant was chasing her, the next moment she dreamed that she suddenly couldn’t play the piano and everyone was laughing at her.

Although she doesn't feel anything when she thinks back on it now, she was really scared in the dream.

I can’t imagine what she would do if she couldn’t play the piano anymore.

"Good morning, teacher."

"morning."

The teacher and student met by chance in the bathroom and then brushed their teeth together.

Just like yesterday, Lao Li had already brought breakfast to the table.

After dinner, Old Li left first. Recently, Old Man Li joined a new organization, the Park Chess Old Men’s Brawl Group.

They are a group of middle-aged and elderly people who live nearby and go to the park to play chess every day.

The hard decoration of the house is about to be completed, and the remaining work does not require Lao Li to stay in the house all the time.

"Grandpa, are you going back to Yucheng after the renovation is finished?"

"He couldn't stay any longer."

"I miss grandma!"

"No."

"hey-hey!"

"You idiot, go away now."

"Teacher, will you come back for lunch?"

"Not necessarily. It depends. You can manage your time at noon based on your situation. If you want to practice, practice Nightingale. We can talk about Mozart in the evening."

"Okay! Goodbye, teacher!"

The teacher and the student parted at the school gate, and Li An turned around and went to the store.

Li An was a little surprised that Old Tang and Mu Xin, who rushed back overnight, were even more active than himself.

"You two didn't sleep?"

In the store, Mu Xin was busy distributing the gifts that she and Lao Tang brought back to everyone. When she heard the sound of a car parking outside, she put down her work.

Then Li An came in, and she smiled and answered, "We slept on the plane, and also on the bus on the way back. When we got back to the house and cleaned up, it was already daybreak, but we woke up."

Ang Lee joked: "I guess he was too excited to sleep. Where are the others?"

"Good morning, Brother An," Lao Tang came down from the second floor.

Li An waved his hand: "It's you who should be early. Hurry up and report the results in advance. How is it? Is the mother-in-law satisfied with our teacher Tang?"

Lao Tang laughed: "I think he should be quite satisfied."

Li An: "Tsk tsk, Mu Xin beat this shameless guy."

Mu Xin continued: "My mom is fine, but my dad has a problem with his bald head."

Lao Tang curled his lips and said, "Nonsense, uncle just wants me to smile more."

Li Anle: "It seems like I didn't spend enough time with my father-in-law."

Mu Xin sighed, "I told my dad in advance that he couldn't drink much. When he came to my house for the first meal, my dad kept urging him to drink less and just sip a little. But he got more excited the more he was urged. He gushed so much that he ended up lying on the table before all the dishes were served."

Lao Tang sighed, "Then do you think I can not drink at the first meal? Uncle asked me to drink less because he loves me. If I really sip it mouthful by mouthful, then I am not sensible."

Mu Xin rolled his eyes: "You still consider yourself an outsider."

Lao Tang looked at Li An for help. Li An smiled and said, "Mu Xin, Lao Tang will definitely do a good job on this. He must drink the first meal. It's a matter of attitude."

Mu Xin: "You don't know how much An Ge can drink. We don't have so many rules in our family. If you can't drink, you can't drink."

Li An: "Okay, let's talk about the result. He fell down halfway through eating. It does sound a bit expensive, but what did your dad say? Was he satisfied?"

Mu Xin: "If he doesn't drink, my dad won't say anything to him."

Li An: "Look at you, don't avoid my question, what did your dad say?"

Mu Xin: "I am quite satisfied. I think this guy is honest."

Ang Lee: "That's it. Sometimes there's no point talking about things between men. He can't drink, and then he drinks himself to death. This is much more effective than him saying a hundred nice words."

Mu Xin: "He vomited all night and his legs were so weak the next day that my mother was so scared that she wanted to take him to the hospital."

Li An looked at Lao Tang again: "It's a big profit."

Lao Tang chuckled and said, "I didn't get a sip after that."

Li An clicked his tongue, "I heard Brother Xin say that southerners are smart. He got himself drunk and solved the problem once and for all."

Mu Xin: "Not at all! I think he did it on purpose. Later, my grandfather wanted to have a drink with him, but my mother refused to agree and almost flipped the table."

Lao Tang smiled bitterly: "Am I that kind of person?"

At this moment, "It must be!" Haitao's voice came from the door.

The three of them looked and saw Haitao walking into the store with his car keys dangling from his hand, with a sly smile on his face.

"Whatever it is, it has to be that," Lao Tang glared, "I brought you so much food."

Haitao: "Thank you, brother. I mean, after two days in Northeast China, your accent has changed. How's Xin? Have you had a good drink for your trip to Northeast China?"

Mu Xin sneered: "Not only did he drink well, but everyone knew about it."

Hai Tao was shocked: "Damn, great, Brother Chong, it looks like he is hiding from us."

"Alright, alright." Lao Tang bowed and begged for mercy, "I was wrong, wife, please forgive me. If you don't let me drink from now on, I will definitely not drink a single sip."

Hai Tao: "Tsk tsk. Is it already like this?"

Li An gave a thumbs up: "Okay, okay."

"Who is your wife?" Mu Xin rolled his eyes again, "Shame on you."

Lao Tang: “You!”

Mu Xin: "I don't want to bother with you!"

After saying that, Mu Xin was about to continue packing up, but Li An stopped him and said, "Okay, okay, you two can go back to your room and do whatever you want. We don't care. We only care about the results. This means it's settled."

Lao Tang and Mu Xin looked at each other, and the atmosphere became ambiguous again.

"Okay, okay," Li An understood the situation, "Then we'll wait for good news."

Hai Tao sighed: "Brother, how long do we have to wait for your good news?"

In an instant, Lao Tang and Mu Xin merged.

Mu Xin: "Brother, how long will you and Sister Mi give us time? Don't let Lao Tang laugh at you then."

Lao Tang: “That’s it!”

Li An thought to himself how could this be related to him again, and said with a wry smile: "Our situation is different."

Hai Tao: "Don't say so much useless things, just ask if they can go in front of each other. The question now is who will be the best man for whom."

Li An thought about it and realized that it was true. "I estimate it will be the end of the year here. Is it about the same for you two?"

Lao Tang: "From the current point of view, it should be the case. Anyway, it will definitely be this year."

Hai Tao: "Let me make it clear first, no matter who goes first between you two, I will charge for being the best man, but I can give you two a 20% discount."

Li An and Lao Tang said in unison: "Get lost."

Haitao: "I feel like I made a lot of money this year."

The four young people were laughing and joking, and Xu Li and Xiao Yun also came into the store later.

Mu Xin also immediately distributed the gifts to the two of them.

This is not the end. The express delivery sent by Grandpa Mu Xin during the meeting also arrived. As soon as the meeting was over, Lao Tang opened the express delivery and distributed some mountain specialties to everyone.

"Thank you, Xinxin."

"Sister Yun, why are you being so polite? If you like to eat, I'll give you as much as you want!"

"This mushroom is good. It will definitely taste good when made into noodles."

"Brother Chong, what is this white thing?"

"I don't know, what the hell is this, Xin?"

"Speak to me nicely"

"." During the joyful break, the strange foursome returned to being a trio.

But this time, A Qian replaced Xiaoche.

Xiao Guan: "Alin starts again."

As soon as the morning exercise was finished, Xiaoche went back to the classroom to do his homework.

Xiao Zhang: "She was under a lot of pressure in May. She had two performances in June. No, three."

Xiao Guan: "Yes, she said she dreamed last night that she couldn't play the piano anymore."

Xiao Zhang: "And being chased by a giant."

Xiao Guan: "Poor Arlene, oh, so should we do another show?"

Xiao Zhang: "It's not necessary, right? Our class has a chorus and Arlene's solo, so that's two programs."

At the flag-raising ceremony early in the morning, Principal Min announced that a performance would be held on June 1st and called on students from all classes to actively respond and sign up.

So all the students in the school were discussing it enthusiastically throughout the morning.

Xiao Guan: "Du Zichen from Class 6 seems to want to dance."

Xiao Zhang: "Chen Yunkang from Class 3 is going to play the saxophone."

Xiao Guan: "Wow, he can play the saxophone. I thought he only knew how to play with snot."

Xiao Zhang: "Eh - what a disgusting description."

The two of them were excitedly looking forward to Children's Day twenty days later, while Ah Qian seemed a little unhappy.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Zhang slapped A Qian on the back.

There was a snap, but Ah Qian seemed to have no reaction, just sighed softly.

Xiao Guan: "This guy has been like this since early morning, as if he was heartbroken."

Xiao Zhang: "Him? I don't think so."

Ha ha ha ha--

"That's enough for you two."

Faced with the ridicule of his teammates, A Qian sighed again.

What he is most looking forward to this May Day is singing a song at the study group activity and impressing Liang Yijia.

As a result, on the day of the event, we learned that Liang Yijia had withdrawn from the study group.

It’s definitely not a broken heart, Qian is just a little sad.

He wanted to complain to Arlene, but Arlene had no time.

Ugh.

"What happened?" Xiao Zhang asked again.

Ah Qian looked up at the sky and said, "You two won't understand even if I tell you. I have to study hard."

Zhang Guang and the other person looked at each other and made some remarks that deserved a beating.

"Snapped!"

Xiao Zhang patted Ah Qian on the shoulder again, "Cheer up, okay?"

"It hurts, Zhang Jiaze!" Ah Qian wanted to get angry, "I told you I'd study hard!"

Then Xiao Zhang used a louder voice to cover Ah Qian's voice, "Studying doesn't count! If you do this again, we will expel you!"

Ah Qian said angrily: "I know it!!"

Xiao Guan: ".Ah Qian, how do you manage to make your words sound both hard and soft?"

The school bell rang.
-
On the way home from school at noon, Xiaoche learned about what happened during the break.

In the afternoon, she took the initiative to talk to A Qian.

Indeed, A Qian did not suffer a broken heart, but the chance of suffering a broken heart was further away.

"Arlene, you make me feel even worse when you say that."

"It's just the facts. Do you have the courage to send her a message and confess your feelings?"

"No, Arlene. I always felt that you were different from the other two."

"So what do you want to hear from me? I'm not very good at comforting people."

"I see. But you are right. I really don't have the courage."

"So study hard, early love is not for you."

"Why do I feel even worse after hearing this?"

"Then I won't say anything."

"No, say another word."

"Do you really want to fall in love?"

"Ah."

"Do you know what love is?"

"don't know."

"Then what are you talking about?"

"I don't understand, so I want to talk."

"Are you under too much pressure from studying?"

"Maybe. Can you tell me what love is?"

"I don't understand either."

“I feel like you understand.”

"I don't understand. I don't think they understand either. If you really want to understand, I suggest you ask Teacher Gao or your parents. They will definitely understand."

".Forget it, it feels like you're going to die miserably. So how do you relieve stress? They said this morning that you've been under a lot of pressure lately."

“Find the source of your stress and then proactively address it.”

Ah Qian's eyes lit up when he heard this. It made so much sense. After a moment, he said, "Thank you, Ah Lin. I understand."

Xiaoche: "I don't know what you understand, but cheer up!"

Ah Qian: "Come on! I want to be in the top 20 in my class at the end of the semester!"

Xiaoche smiled and said, "If this semester doesn't work, there's always next semester. I believe in you."
-
In Xiaoche's opinion, Aqian's pressure may come from the uncertainty of his final grade ranking this semester.

She could sense that Qian was hoping to get better grades at the end of the semester, but at the same time he was worried that he wouldn't be able to achieve that.

So I fell into a state of self-consumption.

So the proactive way to break the impasse is to push forward. If you cannot achieve your goal this semester, keep pushing forward next semester.

Having established long-term goals, Qian no longer worries too much about whether he can achieve his goals at the end of the semester, because there is still next semester.

From a mentality point of view, A Qian chose to face the pressure proactively.

Find the source of your stress and take proactive action.

When Xiao Che answered A Qian, this sentence seemed to have popped out of her pool of experience.

While she was speaking to A Qian, she was also speaking to herself.

For example, right now, the piano practice and study life in May is destined to be extremely busy.

All she can do is plan her time as best as possible and try her best to do everything well.

If something wasn't done well, it didn't matter, she tried her best.

Arlene, I have accepted the fourth place in Group C, so what small setback is unacceptable?

Not to mention, Xiao Che originally wanted to comfort Ah Qian, but in the end, he made himself feel more at ease.

But then she applied this sentence to Wang Xiaohu.

Wang Xiaohu's emotions fluctuate so much, where is the source of his stress?

Xiaoche draws the same conclusion: if Wang Xiaohu can face the source of his personal stress, perhaps Wang Xiaohu's emotions can stabilize.

well.

Xiao Che is waiting to see Wang Xiaohu again on the weekend to see how Wang Xiaohu's mood is. If he is still unstable, she plans to take the initiative to help Wang Xiaohu sort it out.

For dinner, Lao Li used the mountain products that Li Ang brought back to make a pot of wild mushroom noodles, which almost made Xiaoche dizzy with the aroma.

"So Teacher Tang and Teacher Mu are really going to get married this year?"

"Not surprisingly."

"Okay!"

"What? You want to make some extra money at the wedding then?"

"Hahahaha! Teacher, I feel so embarrassed when you say that!"

The laughter and joy came to an end with the end of dinner.

After dinner, the teacher and student went into the study and started teaching Mozart's Paris Concerto K.333.
-
Two hours later.

Li An asked while Xiaoche was taking a sip of water.

"Have you become a celebrity in your school?"

"do not have!"

She said no, but Xiao Che couldn't deny it. It seemed that after May Day, more people in the school knew her.

"You should also promote yourself and ask your classmates to come to your online concert to increase the popularity of our live broadcast room."
