Sheet music sheet twenty-six
"Grandma, I'm going to school!"
"etc."
Tang Xi looked back in confusion and saw her grandmother waving at her. She immediately walked up to her obediently.
"What a child, with his collar tucked in."
If Tang Xi had stood here five years ago, he would never have imagined that one day he would leave home for school and have the opportunity to have his elders straighten his collar for him.
Grandma's movements were not very skillful, and even her fingers were not very flexible due to years of medication, but Tang Xi was surprisingly patient today.
So what if she was late? If Qiao Tian asked, she was ready to tell her everything that happened yesterday in a mysterious tone.
And all her beautiful fantasies about the future.
Who would have thought that Qiao Tian not only didn't ask, but even put on a sad expression so early in the morning.
Tang Xi was about to ask why, but Qiao Tian covered her mouth and shook her head seriously: "Xi, don't be anxious, let me think about how to tell you better."
Tang Xi was quite confused, but thinking that although she was a person who liked to attract attention, she always had her own reasons for doing things, she waited obediently.
When the music appreciation class started, she didn't know whether she had thought it through or because she had absolutely no interest in the class and she just couldn't stand being silent any more.
She first pulled the ponytail hard, which made Tang Xi feel a sharp pain in his head. The other party took the posture of hanging from the beam and piercing the thigh with a needle, and pulled the paper off the notebook with force.
hiss--
Beethoven took action at the right time to cover up the evidence for her crime.
The other person picked up the pen with such confidence that he looked like a sculptor holding a chisel. Every time he wrote, the tip of the pen was almost bent with such force. In just a few words, he actually took out three colors of stationery.
After she finished writing, she even wanted to slam the table, but she thought that she couldn't rely on Beethoven to cover it up every time, so she pressed the paper carefully and lightly scratched the edge.
Tang Xi pulled his thoughts back from Vienna. When he lowered his head, three huge red exclamation marks came into his sight.
"You know, your dad actually came to my house yesterday afternoon to tell tales!!!"
What was he doing at Qiao Tian's house? What did he tell on her?
Tang Xi had a bad feeling in his heart. Before he could put pen to paper and ask why, the other party snatched the paper away again. This time, the carving did not focus on strength, but on speed. The position of each stroke made the shape of the man far from the shape in the Xinhua Dictionary.
Tang Xi couldn't hold back any longer, so he simply put his head on Qiao Tian's shoulder, trying to witness the birth of every vigorous and elegant word with his own eyes.
"I was sitting on the sofa with my mom, watching that idol drama that's been going viral lately. The male lead is like a bully. He drags the female lead out of class to ask if she likes him."
She realized she was off topic, so she quickly crossed out the idol drama part and continued writing.
"Anyway, when the heroine called the hero sick, your father knocked on the door angrily, which scared my mom and me so much that he blurted out "sick" at the same time. As a result, what he said when he walked in was even sicker!!! Do you know what he said to my parents?"
Qiao Tian narrowed her eyes and looked at Tang Xi, who quickly shook her head.
How could she know why he went to Qiao Tian's house so madly? He couldn't be talking about his grandmother, could he? No, Qiao Tian clearly knew what she was going to do. If she knew about their heroic deeds yesterday, she would only be praising her with excitement today. It would be impossible for her to be so abnormal.
Qiao Tian exhaled and continued writing,
'He said, "Mr. Joe, Mrs. Joe, I don't usually like to blame children, but there are some things I think you should know."
'If he really doesn't think he should say it, then just shut up!!!'
Not only did he not shut up, he even broke the news to my parents, "Hey, I just found out by accident. Our two children are keeping quiet and are not planning to participate in the piano competition. Instead, they are going to... participate in a low-ranking fake competition."
"What kind of pheasant competition is this? What kind of pheasant competition is this? He actually dared to call my pop music competition a pheasant competition. I think he's just a chicken in a cage, and the meat is so old and tough, so he's jealous of the pheasants' freedom!"
She cursed until her face turned red.
She was stunned. It was bizarre enough that her father was jealous of their mother-daughter relationship, but he even wanted to destroy Qiao Tian's family harmony.
She could even imagine what a disgusting look he had on his face through her words.
He must be really mentally ill.
Qiao Tian was completely brought back to yesterday's mood, and the words almost covered the entire sheet of paper.
"My parents' faces changed at the time, but fortunately they always believed that scolding children should be done in private, and they should always save some face in front of outsiders, so they just said they understood."
Tang Xi found the opportunity and immediately wrote a sentence,
"My dad must have been very disappointed at that time."
Qiao Tian curled her lips and made a "hmm" sound, then mouthed "extremely disappointed".
She picked up the pen again.
He didn't give up on getting my parents to scold me, and even tried to stop us being friends. "Ah, I'm just too worried about the kids, so I feel I have to tell you. Don't think I'm nosy. You've seen my wife, she...ah, my Xixi is completely hopeless. I hope your Tiantian doesn't follow in her footsteps."
Tang Xi wrote a question mark, and Qiao Tian immediately followed with two.
Tang Xi had written three question marks halfway when a pen suddenly stretched out from behind him and wrote a question mark running from top to bottom across the entire piece of paper.
The two of them turned around at the same time and met a face with a gentle yet extremely creepy smile.
Qiao Tian was extremely panicked and was about to press her hands on the paper to try to cover the words on it.
Teacher Xu smiled, pinched the paper with both hands and pulled it hard to the back. She didn't care about it being torn in half. After all, she could get the back half by just snapping her fingers.
She uttered a sentence that terrified every student.
"Come to my office at noon!"
The two were forced to become the bitter melon duo, waiting for the morning classes to end in a lifeless manner. After eating, they shyly knocked on the door of Teacher Xu's office.
They are a private school with very high tuition fees, so as long as the teachers are capable, the school will arrange separate dormitories and offices.
Teacher Xu loves to eat snail noodles and she would eat them in her private office at least four days a week. When they went in, they happened to catch her listening to classical music while slurping the noodles.
When she raised her head, her lips were covered in red oil. She sniffed and swallowed hard because of the spiciness. She raised her hand and pointed to a seat nearby and said, "Sit down first and wait for me to finish eating."
Qiao Tian pinched her nose and gave a wry smile: "Teacher Xu, you know that you enjoy eating snail noodles, but others smell like—hehe, I don't mean to say you eat *, but can we wait outside?"
Teacher Xu slammed the table and shouted angrily, "You two have committed a serious offense and have been called in for a talk, yet you still dare to make so many demands? Be careful or I'll beat you up."
Tang Xi showed a pitiful expression: "Teacher Xu, actually we would rather be punished by you."
Teacher Xu was speechless for a moment. He didn't want to be disturbed while eating noodles, so he kicked them out with a look of disgust on his face.
About ten minutes later, she opened the door with the garbage bag and threw it in the corridor. The unpleasant smell inside had mostly dissipated, replaced by the smell of air freshener.
She waved at the two of them and said, "Come in quickly, little idiots! Don't act like I'm making you stand there as punishment."
Although Qiao Tian usually looks down on everyone, he is actually a person who understands the ways of the world very well.
She followed Teacher Xu to the side of the aisle, and when she sat down, she immediately raised her hand to massage her shoulders: "Teacher Xu, we can't be your ancestors. We will always be your most obedient and most lovely students."
"Haha." Although Teacher Xu didn't refuse the shoulder massage, his expression wasn't very good. He sneered and then took out the paper that was confiscated that morning and waved it in front of the two of them. "My most obedient and lovely student, and also the one who likes to chat with me the most, right?"
Qiao Tian said aggrievedly, "How could that be? We thought you were the only one who could understand our inner sorrow and forgive us. Alas, it's our fault for pushing us too far. Teacher Xu, if you want to hit us or scold us, that's all you can do. But... you saw me get scolded by my parents just now. Could you please not invite them?"
"Don't worry, I don't intend to scold you." Teacher Xu said.
Both of their eyes brightened at the same time.
Teacher Xu shook his head and sighed, then reached out and tapped Qiao Tian's forehead. He asked, "I called you here because I wanted to clarify, Qiao Tian, are you really planning to give up the piano competition and enter the pop music competition? You should be aware of the huge difference in the quality of these two competitions."
Qiao Tian looked surprised: "Teacher, you actually knew I was talking about the pop music competition?"
Teacher Xu grabbed her ear and twisted it, then said helplessly, "You think I'm some old-fashioned nerd who's been working in isolation? I'm a musician after all. The pop music competition happened to be held in our city. Even if I hadn't planned to participate, I would definitely know about it."
Qiao Tian said, "Oh," and asked, "So you're not going to scold us for chatting in class, but are going to persuade me not to participate in the competition?"
Teacher Xu raised his hands: "I never said I wanted to persuade you to be upset."
She shook her head and continued, "I just hope you don't make a decision you'll regret later because of an impulse. Although your piano skills aren't at the level of a genius, as long as you don't make a big mistake in the piano competition, anyone graduating from our school is guaranteed to get into a good music university in China. If your parents are wealthy, they can send you abroad for further studies. Whether you return to China or stay here, you'll see a completely different world."
She paused and continued, "As for pop music, we all know that the future there is a bottomless ocean."
Qiao Tian waited patiently for Teacher Xu to finish, then frowned and expressed her thoughts: "No matter how vast the world I can see from playing the piano, it's not what I want. As for pop music, even if I'm reduced to performing on the streets for it, that's the path I chose!"
"Very good." Teacher Xu suddenly nodded.
Qiao Tian didn't quite understand why she was cheering, and her next words made her open her eyes wide in surprise.
"Don't worry about your parents. I will have a good talk with them."
Tang Xi and Qiao Tian's shocked eyes met, and they both felt that today's story was full of twists and turns.
But just as Qiao Tian said, this is the path they want to choose.
