On the way home, the mother and daughter sat in the back row and chatted with their hands.

He Jing talks about Eastman, where she now works part-time, about Rochester, about New York, which she has mentioned more than once to her family on the phone.

Compared with Qin Jian, the number of times she calls home is more like a child who grew up in her original family.

In the end, she also took the initiative to share the competition that just ended last month, and from her tone and the content between the lines, both of her people could feel her normal heart.

This made Qin Gang, who was holding the steering wheel, feel at ease, as He Jing's enlightenment teacher, he watched He Jing grow up since he was a child, and he knew the unyielding strength in He Jing's bones.

At first, he was worried that He Jing would have some psychological obstacles because he was not satisfied with such a ranking, but now it seems that he is too worried.

The journey of more than two hours was quickly spent in a warm and pleasant way.

In the evening, Qin Gang took charge of a table of meals, and He Jing made a video call to Qin Jian during the meal, and the family could be regarded as having an illusion of being reunited.

After the meal, it was time for the father and daughter to talk.

At both ends of the sofa in the living room, Qin Gang asked He Jing how long he could stay when he came back this time, and He Jing said that it would be about two months.

Qin Gang: "Two months is not a short time, do you have any plans?"

He Jing smiled, "Let's rest at home first, and then find something to do." ”

Qin Gang knew that the other party couldn't be idle, and he also smiled and said, "I'm going to do something." ”

He Jing: "Last month, Principal Li contacted me and asked me if I had any plans to return to China during the summer vacation, and he said that if I had time, he hoped that I could go back to Bor to teach the children. ”

Qin Gang waved his hand and lit a cigarette: "What's there to discuss, we know what you're busy with, I think it's good, let's get busy." “

He Jing got up and put the ashtray in front of Qin Gang: "Actually, it's not busy, I plan to go to Nanshi twice a week, and the rest of the time will still be at home." ”

Qin Gang said: "You can arrange the time yourself, we hoped that you could stay at home longer, but everything is focused on work." ”

He Jing nodded: "Don't worry, Teacher Qin." ”

Qin Gang: "By the way, quietly, your aunt will rest tomorrow, just tomorrow at noon, go to your grandfather's house for a meal, and then go to your grandfather's house in the evening." ”

...

The next morning, the three of them set off by car.

He Jing came back this time, which made the four old people also very happy, and naturally the delicious food and drink were prepared for their granddaughter a long time ago.

After eating two meals in the afternoon at noon, the three of them stopped at the night stall at the entrance of the community on the way home at night and ate some skewers, and He Jing accompanied Qin Gang to drink some wine.

It was a successful day.

For the next few days, He Jing's daily life was very leisurely, and she would go out by herself during the day.

Or play the piano at home and communicate with Qin Gang about piano teaching.

As the main teacher of ICM, the world's top piano training institution, He Jing's current teaching views and her mastery and teaching methods also amaze Qin Gang.

"I didn't expect that foreign children's piano lessons could be like this. “

At first, He Jing's opinion was the same, but when she really lived in the United States for a year, she felt that the key to ICM's success was not this set of teaching methods, but the soil for ICM's growth and development.

If the ICM set is copied to China, it will not work.

Although Chinese families are now far more concerned about children's artistic cultivation than American families, local music associations and relevant education departments are also doing a large-scale promotion and popularization.

However, the serious shortage of professional teachers and the overly formalized popularization process have also hindered the development of this cause.

Regarding this content, He Jing also expressed her opinion: "At this stage, there is a shortage of a large number of professional teachers. “

He Jing's words Qin Gang didn't understand that Qin Gang was a piano teacher who belonged to that era, and in his era, even music teachers who could play the pedal piano were scarce.

The times are developing, and now the pedal piano has long become an antique, but some of the 'old antiques' who should have been eliminated a long time ago have eaten the dividends of the rapid development of society and have grown stronger.

They are still guiding the new generation twenty years later with their teaching ideas and wrong ways of playing twenty years ago.

On this issue, the father and daughter have discussed a lot in the past two days.

In addition, after Fang Xuehua got off work, the mother and son would also go around the street and walk around, and soon a week passed.

...

A week later, on Tuesday, the last day of July.

Today is the day when He Jing and Bol agreed to come to school, for this reason, Lu Desheng arranged everything three days ago, and Bol He Jing prepared a master class, just waiting for the other party to arrive.

The tail of July, also in time for the hottest time of the year,

He Jing drove to Nanshi in the morning, and it was already 10 o'clock in the morning when the car drove into the Boer campus, and Lu Desheng was waiting for He Jing under the sun.

To say that they are old acquaintances, but Lu Desheng has always felt that he did some things in the past was not very authentic, so he was always a little weak when facing He Jing.

However, He Jing didn't care about this, as an old colleague, she still greeted very politely after getting out of the car: "Director Lu." ”

Lu Desheng understands He Jing's temperament and doesn't like to go through the motions, but now the identities of the two people are no longer what they used to be, and he still has to say what he should say at this time.

Words of praise and thanks are naturally indispensable,

He Jing also listened patiently.

"You're welcome, Director Lu, it's an honor for me to be back in school and communicate with all of you. ”

In the end, he refused to be accompanied by Lu Desheng, and He Jing went to the lecture hall alone for a while.

Although the school had been renovated last year, no matter how much it changed, she was familiar with the place.

Many classmates looked at He Jing curiously, and everyone almost recognized this woman at a glance as the cover character on the campus poster of these two people.

Real people are milder than the photos and look better than the photos.

Some people are thinking that if they had come to Bor two years earlier, they would have been able to learn piano under such a teacher, and they could also become classmates with the senior brother named Qin Jian.

In the past two years, there have been too many rumors and stories about Qin Jian and He Jing in the school, and there are also stories about the third person, but this third person is still in school, and no one dares to say it to his face.

...

10:30 min.

After President Li's warm-up speech, He Jing's master class lecture officially began.

"Good morning, everyone, it's an honor to be here today..."

On the podium, He Jing looked around the entire lecture hall with a smile, while looking at the immature new faces, which were also mixed with some new and old teachers, and suddenly a familiar face appeared in her sight.

Of course, such a face is extremely eye-catching in any crowd.
