After the class, Teacher Lu repeatedly praised Qing'er's ability to comprehend, and rewarded Qing'er with a small plush toy like the Golden Retriever Lion King.
Qing'er hugged her happily and kept combing the little Golden Retriever's hair.
Teacher Lu took out the teaching notes accumulated over the years and handed them to Cheng Xiang: "When you go back, teach her according to these teaching notes, and don't teach her randomly again. I will try to correct her problems. If If you do it again next time, I will ask questions for you."
Cheng Xiang suddenly felt that the fear of being dominated by his mother in learning piano when he was a child had returned. One really cannot get carried away, otherwise he would be slapped in the face every minute.
Smiling sarcastically, he carefully put these notes away.
After chatting with Teacher Lu for a while, suddenly there was a knock on the door. Teacher Lu looked at the time and saw that it was getting late. Who would be coming now? Didn't you say hello in advance?
When she opened the door, she saw that standing at the door were Cheng Ningning and her mother-in-law, Gu Minglang's mother Ye Huixin.
"Comrade Ye?" Teacher Lu looked at the two women in front of him in surprise.
"Teacher Lu, I heard that you came back from overseas and I came to see you." Ye Huixin said with a smile, holding some gifts in her hand.
Gu Minglang learned piano with Cheng Xiang from Teacher Lu, so Ye Huixin and Teacher Lu were also familiar with each other.
Teacher Lu was surprised by her sudden visit. Although he welcomed her in politely, he didn't show much enthusiasm.
As soon as Cheng Ningning and Ye Huixin entered the door, they saw Cheng Xiang sitting on the sofa drinking tea and eating oranges, with a flash of surprise on their faces.
"Think about it too?" Ye Huixin greeted Cheng Xiang with a warm smile.
Cheng Xiang nodded: "Hello, Aunt Ye."
Turning to look at Cheng Ningning, Cheng Ningning seemed to have gained a lot of weight after not seeing her for more than a month. It seemed that the Gu family had good food during the pregnancy and her belly was already obvious.
Cheng Ningning looked at Cheng Xiang and said nothing. Cheng Xiang sat down and continued drinking tea, ignoring them.
Teacher Lu asked: "You came to see me for something?"
Ye Huixin smiled politely and said: "I didn't have time to visit you before the New Year. I wanted to come to visit you during the Chinese New Year. You went out of town. I didn't hear that you are back. I came to visit you and wish you well in your old age."
Teacher Lu said calmly: "It's already the end of February. If it's a little later, it will be Qingming Festival. Isn't it too late for you to come and wish me good years? Besides, since your Gu Minglang no longer studies with me, , we haven’t interacted with each other since, so there’s no need to be so polite.”
Teacher Lu was always very close to others and never got close to anyone. When Gu Minglang was able to learn piano with him, it was because Gu Yangtian asked Grandpa Cheng Xiang to intercede that he and Cheng Xiang had the opportunity to study with Teacher Lu.
Cheng Xiang couldn't help but feel a little funny when he heard Teacher Lu's lukewarm words. This little old lady really kept a distance from everyone.
Ye Huixin smiled awkwardly for a moment.
"So, you must have something to come to me about, so just tell me directly." Teacher Lu asked directly.
When Ye Huixin faced this upright old lady, she stopped making pretentious remarks and said directly: "That's right, I want to help Minglang and Ningning's children find you a mentor."
Cheng Xiang almost dropped his jaw when he heard this.
Teacher Lu asked with a confused look on his face: "Who is Ning Ning? Gu Minglang's child? How old is it?"
Cheng Xiang almost spit out a mouthful of tea.
Cheng Ningning looked embarrassed, and Ye Huixin also looked embarrassed. She didn't even invite anyone to the wedding, and now she came here to beg to become a disciple. It was a bit unreasonable.
She smiled politely, pulled Cheng Ningning and said, "This is Ningning, Mingming's newlywed wife, and she is pregnant."
Teacher Lu looked at Cheng Ningning with a look of shock on his face. He raised his eyes and said, "Do you mean to become a disciple of this unborn child?"
Ye Huixin nodded: "Yes."
Teacher Lu looked dumbfounded and said, "The child hasn't been born yet. No matter what, he has to raise him to four or five years old before he can learn piano. Are you too hasty?"
Ye Huixin's face was filled with joy and her eyes were determined: "Yes, I will take Master Lu as my teacher from the beginning of prenatal education. You are a famous master. If we don't actively reserve a spot in advance, we are afraid that we won't be able to get in line by then. "
Teacher Lu shook his head helplessly: "Learning piano depends not only on talent, but also on the interest of the child. You... you should wait until the child is born. Besides, I am getting old. I won't wait until their child is born." When the children grow up, I can no longer teach them." Teacher Lu felt that the chief's wife was simply joking.
"Teacher Lu, we have started training from prenatal education. The children will definitely be interested. What's more, Mingming plays the piano well and is very talented. It will be passed on to the children. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, I think if I follow you to learn, they will definitely become An excellent pianist." Looking back at Cheng Ningning: "Right, Ningning?"
Cheng Ningning, who was in a daze, quickly replied: "Yes, Teacher Lu, when I was a child, I saw you teaching people and I admired you very much. But I don't have the luck to study with you. If my child can worship you as a teacher, it will really be her." of creation."
"What kind of blessing is it created by nature? What kind of crazy things do you say at such a young age?" Teacher Lu responded somewhat coldly, and then asked doubtfully: "Have you seen me when you were a child? Have you ever taken my class?"
Cheng Ningning, who was shocked by Teacher Lu's words, was a little embarrassed. When she heard Teacher Lu's question, she quickly said: "Yes, I saw you teaching Xiangxiang when I was a child, and I admired you very much at that time."
When Cheng Xiang and Gu Minglang were young, they took classes with Teacher Lu. She accompanied her father to pick up Cheng Xiang. Seeing Cheng Xiang tapping the keys briskly under Teacher Lu's guidance, she couldn't be more envious.
I once wanted to beg Cheng Wanshan to let him learn piano, but Cheng Wanshan said with a look of embarrassment: "This teacher Lu doesn't accept apprentices easily. He only accepted it because he thought about grandpa's face. Think about it, she won't accept you if you don't have the qualifications." , please stop making trouble, besides, the piano at home was bought by Cheng Xiang’s grandma, and you don’t have any piano practice after learning it, so forget it.”
I was chatting with my mother-in-law in the past two days and talked about Gu Minglang's piano learning when he was a child. My mother-in-law had a sudden idea to let the children in her belly also learn piano in the future. She thought of teacher Lu Jinyu. I heard that this teacher wanted to accept a closed disciple. Feeling that the opportunity was too good to miss, he came over with Cheng Ningning.
Ye Huixin said hurriedly: "Yes, Teacher Lu may not know that Ning Ning and Xiang Xiang are sisters."
He turned to look at Cheng Xiang, who was showing off his oranges at the side: "Would you like to think about it?"
Cheng Xiang laughed dryly, looked at Cheng Ningning and asked, "Are we sisters?"
