Cheng Ningning was confused by her question: "Ah? Yeah." He nodded.
Cheng Xiang smiled noncommittally.
Ye Huixin continued: "Ning Ning has your nephew in her belly. Think about it, why don't you help your nephew have a good talk with Teacher Lu?"
Cheng Xiang patted the orange peel in his hand and said, "Aunt Ye, whether Teacher Lu accepts disciples or not has nothing to do with whose nephew he is. Besides, can I help a nephew instead of my own daughter?"
Ye Huixin and Cheng Ningning both looked at Cheng in surprise and thought: "Daughter? Who is your daughter?"
Cheng Xiang blinked: "Qing'er, come here."
Qing'er ran over holding her little Golden Retriever: "What's wrong, Mom?"
Cheng Ningning frowned when she saw that it was this country girl.
Ye Huixin also frowned. She turned out to be a stepdaughter. Was she worthy of being so interested in her? I'm really dizzy.
"Think about it, stop joking. Teacher Lu is strict about accepting disciples. He won't accept just anyone. Don't bring some cats and dogs over to embarrass Teacher Lu." Ye Huixin looked at Qing'er with a look of disgust on her face.
Cheng Ningning also echoed: "That's right, think about it, although you really want to be a good stepmother, you still have to deal with priorities, right? Why are you so ridiculous? A country girl who has never seen the world, does she know what a piano is? Don't give it to Lu The teacher is causing trouble."
The two of them "helped" Teacher Lu speak righteously, but they couldn't see Teacher Lu's increasingly gloomy expression.
Cheng Xiang smiled slightly and said: "Cheng Ningning, Aunt Ye just said that Gu Minglang has a talent for playing the piano. This talent will be passed on to your children, so his children will also have a talent for playing the piano. Well, you haven't seen anyone in the countryside." If you were born as a wild girl who has not seen the world, will your genes that have never seen the world be passed on to your child? Why can she worship Teacher Lu as her teacher?"
Cheng Ningning's scar was uncovered, and she stared at Cheng angrily and thought: "You, what are you talking about?"
Ye Huixin also darkened her face: "Think about it, I always thought you were well-educated and sensible, why do you speak so viciously? How could you say that to an unborn child?"
What Cheng Xiang said just now sounded to her like a curse on her grandson. Cheng Ningning's background had always made her resentful, but now that Cheng Xiang had revealed it to her face without mercy, it was really embarrassing.
"That's what she said about Qing'er just now, didn't you hear?" Cheng Xiang glanced at Ye Huixin indifferently, why were he pretending to be selectively deaf?
"You, she, are right. What does this little girl know? Aren't you wasting Teacher Lu's time? Are you Teacher Lu?" Ye Huixin turned to look at Lu Jinyu in a flattering manner, but saw Lu Jinyu He had a gloomy look on his face, but belatedly said to Cheng, "Look, you kid has made Teacher Lu so angry."
Teacher Lu took a breath and said, "Comrade Ye, please go back, and please don't insult my students like this."
"Student?" Ye Huixin's eyes widened and her mouth opened slightly. Apparently, Teacher Lu's words hit her in the face.
"You mean, this girl is your student?" Ye Huixin swallowed hard.
"Yes." Teacher Lu's tone was affirmative, and he walked over and stroked Qing'er's head lovingly: "This is the most gifted child I have ever seen. Even if your grandson inherited his father's talent, he is still thousands of miles away. , not to mention that medically speaking, good genes will be diluted, while bad genes will be superimposed." After speaking, he glanced at Cheng Ningning casually.
Cheng Xiang couldn't help but chuckle to himself, aren't you asking for trouble by belittling her proud disciple like this?
Ye Huixin and Cheng Ningning looked at each other. Ye Huixin mumbled for a moment and said, "Teacher Lu, don't be fooled by this girl."
Lu Jinyu frowned: "Are you saying that I'm old and confused?"
"No, no, that's not what I meant." Ye Huixin quickly explained.
"Okay, Comrade Ye, if you have nothing to do, please come back. My student behaved very well today, and I will reward her by going to the restaurant to eat braised prawns later." Teacher Lu gave the order in a cold tone.
Ye Huixin and Cheng Ningning didn't want to wait any longer, so they left in a hurry.
Lu Jinyu closed the door and said angrily: "Who do you think these people are? They come to other people's homes for no reason and make rude remarks. The child is so young. What can I do if I feel a shadow in my heart after hearing their words?"
Lu Jinyu looked at Qing'er worriedly, pulled her over, and said gently: "Qing'er, what those people said just now are wrong. Qing'er is beautiful, smart, and plays the piano well. She will definitely become a powerful person in the future. Piano master, please ignore what they say, okay?"
Qing'er raised her head and asked with big eyes: "Teacher, do you really want to take Qing'er to eat braised prawns?"
Lu Jinyu: "...?"
Cheng thought: "...!" There is no doubt that he is a foodie.
Thanks to Qing'er, Cheng Xiang also had a meal of braised prawns.
After dinner, it was already getting late and there was definitely no way to go back, so Cheng Xiang took Qing'er to her grandmother's house.
As soon as Qing'er arrived at her grandma's house, she ran to the piano and practiced the key points and music taught by Teacher Lu today.
Cheng Xiang sighed: "Genius is not to be feared, but genius combined with hard work is to be feared." Feeling ashamed.
Grandma sat over to chat with her and said in surprise: "I met Dr. Zhong a few days ago. What's the matter? He said he would accept you as his disciple?"
Cheng Xiang silently recounted what happened that day.
Grandma suddenly realized: "Oh" and said: "It seems that you are very reluctant? But the old man was serious and said with certainty that there was a successor. I was still thinking that the old man would spend his whole life treating people. Why? Don’t you see how stupid you are? You actually think you are a successor to the world of Chinese medicine. It’s really ridiculous.”
Cheng thought: "Hey, why does the old lady look down on people so much?"
Grandma said: "To learn Chinese medicine, you must have a calm personality, be meticulous and patient, and more importantly, if you want to learn something, you must first believe it. When you were a child, you said that herbal medicines are rotten tree roots, and that Chinese medicine is all bluffing. Human, how can you learn well if you have no faith?"
"Everyone changes. Maybe I'm interested now." Cheng Xiang said angrily.
"This is a matter of human life. Don't be idle. You're here just in time. Come with me to Dr. Zhong tomorrow. I've been having pains in my back lately. Go and see him." Grandma said. He said while beating his back.
"Did you twist it? Let me rub it for you." Cheng Xiang moved behind grandma and gently rubbed her back.
Grandma sighed happily and said: "Oh, time flies so fast. The little girl who has been acting coquettishly in my arms all day can now give me a massage. Time really flies by. Before I realized it, I dreamed of spring grass in the pond, and in front of the steps. Ye Jiqiu Sheng, why are you so old all of a sudden? I don’t know how long I can stay with you anymore? "
Listening to his grandmother's slightly aged voice, Cheng Xiang felt sour in his heart.
