"Oh, by the way, Auntie also said that if Brother Zixiong passes this interview, he can perform in many great places and become a pianist. Uncle also said that if Brother becomes a pianist, he can..."
Su Man frowned slightly, as if thinking about the adjective.
Qu Ziqian asked anxiously, "So what?"
"Oh, I remember now."
Su Man raised her head with an innocent look on her face, "It's so powerful that no one can compare to it."
“No one can compare to…”
Qu Ziqian's eyes were blank. At that time, what status did she still have in the family?
Just when she was completely despairing, Su Man casually said, "As long as he passes the interview, Brother Zixiong will be the hero of the family. I really envy him."
This sentence somehow hurt Qu Ziqian, and she yelled, "Shut up! Our family affairs are none of your business!"
Su Man seemed frightened and asked anxiously, "Sister Ziqian, did Xiaoman say something wrong?"
Qu Ziqian, who was already furious, took out all her anger on Su Man. She yelled, "I'm not your sister, don't call me sister! You're a wild child, you can never compare to me!"
After saying that, she threw the bread in her hand heavily to the ground and slammed the door in Suman's face.
"Bang"
There was a loud bang, and the floor seemed to tremble a few times.
The moment the door closed, the fear on Su Man's face disappeared and she smiled.
Angry? More anger is yet to come.
Just as Su Man expected, because of her "tip-off", the Qu family was in constant quarrels for the next few days.
-
Early the next morning, Qu Ziqian cried and refused to go to school.
"Why can Qu Zixiong not go to school? I want to stay at home too!"
Zhang Lili, carrying her schoolbag, scolded, "Your brother is going to a job interview, so hurry up and go to school."
"Why can my brother interview? I can play the piano too, so I want to go too!"
"Do you think you can go just because you want to? I'd like you to go, but do you have the guts to do that? I told you to practice piano well before, but you either had a headache or a pain in your butt. Now you want an interview? I think you deserve a beating."
"Mom is partial! I don't care. I want to practice piano at home like my brother. I don't want to go to school."
"Still making trouble, do you think I dare not hit you?"
Seeing that they were about to be late, and anxious to wake Qu Zixiong up to practice piano, Zhang Lili lost her patience and slapped Qu Zixiong in the face, pointing at the door and shouting, "Hurry up and go to school!"
This was the first time Qu Ziqian had been beaten in her life.
Tears welled up in Qu Ziqian's eyes and she stared at Zhang Lili with red eyes.
"I hate you!"
Zhang Lili was stunned, and before she could react, Qu Ziqian ran out crying.
She wanted to chase after him and see what was happening, but seeing that time was almost up, she called the driver and asked him to keep an eye on Qu Ziqian while she went upstairs to wake up Qu Zixiong.
All day long, Su Man could hear the sound of the piano coming from the piano room.
If we ignore his character and only look at his diligence, Qu Zixiong is still very good. Except for eating and going to the toilet, he spends all day in the piano room from morning to night.
Zhang Lili also kept circling around Qu Zixiong, bringing him milk and fruit, and giving him massages to relax him.
In order to help Qu Zixiong reach the highest level, she also hired a teacher to practice with him, determined to get the opportunity to go on tour.
This kind of life lasted for nearly a week. During this period, Qu Zixiong was the key protected person in the family. Zhang Lili held him in her mouth for fear that he would melt, and held him in her palm for fear that he would fall.
Although Qu Ziqian ran out crying that morning, she came back in the evening as if nothing had happened. Zhang Lili thought it was just a child's temper that came and went quickly, so she didn't take it seriously. After all, her mind was full of Qu Zixiong's interview and she couldn't think of anything else.
In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend and there was only one day left before Qu Zixiong's interview.
He had prepared familiar pieces, and after a week of devilish training, Qu Zixiong knew the pieces by heart. Even the teacher said that with Qu Zixiong's current level, he had a great chance of passing the interview.
Zhang Lili finally felt relieved. She followed her teacher's advice and reduced her piano practice time on the last day to conserve her energy for tomorrow's interview.
With the teacher's reassurance, Zhang Lili seemed to have envisioned the scene of Qu Zixiong getting an interview spot and going on a global tour. She couldn't help but call almost every relative and friend to hint at this matter, including those fake sisters.
"Hey, Shota, what are you busy with? Oh, you're having coffee."
"Well, I'm not as relaxed as you. I'm currently practicing piano with my son Zixiong. It was that piano virtuoso, some guy named Joey, who invited our son Zixiong to go on a national tour with her. I didn't want to go at first, but she used all her connections to find us. Since she's so sincere, we can't refuse."
"Ah? What did you say? Is it settled now?"
Zhang Lili crossed her legs and said, "We still have to go through the motions, but it's basically been decided."
"There's nothing to congratulate. Zixiong's strength is there, so we can only say that he performed normally."
After Zhang Lili finished playing one number, she couldn't wait to dial another one.
"Hey, Mrs. Song, what are you busy with?"
“…”
Su Man looked down through the gap in the stair railing and saw Zhang Lili's smug look clearly.
Tsk, let me just make you happy again.
