Chapter Seventy-Seven: Playing the Piano Under the Snow
I watched him leave in the car, and suddenly realized, "Why are you so stupid?" patted my wooden fish on the head, "Do you need his consent to go out and find a job? "I think I'm so smart.
I dropped to learn the guqin, and went to Shifeng Economic and Trade Company to find Manager Du and said that I was going back to work.
"Ying Tai, you said it earlier, your position has already been topped by someone, if you say you want to come back, how can I not leave it for you?"
I hung my head and came out, and happened to meet Xiao Liu at the front desk, and after explaining the situation, she showed me a clear way.
"My relatives have opened a new company, and there is a shortage of clerks, so you can try it. ”
I am very grateful, take the business card that Xiao Liu gave me to find the company's address, it is a small clothing store at all, it is Xiao Liu is advertising for her relatives, thinking that I have the ability to spend, specially introduced me to the past, I have fifty yuan in my pocket, where do I dare to go in, ask a few words and run away.
"Should you be too worried?" Mr. Gu, who taught me the guqin, came over to talk.
I have always been working hard to learn the guqin, suddenly disappeared for many days, goodbye, either in a daze or sighing, in the practice room did not touch the guqin, how could he not ask.
I didn't answer him immediately, I muttered for a long time, and went to simplicity.
"I wanted to find a job, but I couldn't find the right one. ”
It can be seen from Teacher Gu's facial expression, "Oh, it's such a simple thing, how can it be so troublesome?"
Sure enough, as soon as he opened his mouth, the same words came out, and I was depressed.
"Mainly, I haven't worked for a long time, and my husband doesn't allow me to do odd jobs, and being a clerk is not something that can be found at once, so it's very difficult. I explained it to him, hoping that he would understand what I meant.
"Yes, it's not difficult, as long as you're willing to work hard. ”
I nodded like garlic, "Of course, I will definitely try." "I'm full of hope.
"As long as you work hard to learn the guqin, take the exam, and wait until you reach a certain level, whether you are performing or being a teacher like me, you will earn money, it is a very decent job, that is, you can support yourself, and you will not be hindered by your husband because he looks down on you. ”
I must admit that what Mr. Xiao Gu said is very right, but this is too far away, it doesn't solve the urgent need at all, and when it is realized, I am afraid that I will only have an ending of being in the ground, I deny it on the spot.
"Teacher Xiao Gu, although your idea is good, far water can't quench your thirst. ”
"Are you thirsty?" Mr. Gu looked at me from behind the lens.
"Don't be thirsty......," I smirked, raising my hand to pluck the strings.
"Now that you have the conditions to set lofty goals, why should you retreat? Is it only sitting in the office that you like your favorite job? Don't you like the guqin? Then what are you doing here to learn from me? Why don't you go and learn the piano, after all, you can play two pieces at the banquet and get some praise. ”
It's really a lesson to people without mercy, "However, I always have to start from reality, I'm old and have no music foundation......"
Teacher Xiao Gu didn't wait for me to finish, then waved his hand impatiently, "It's all reasons, give yourself a reason not to do it, what if I say you have talent?"
"Seems too ethereal, doesn't it?"
"There is only a thin line between a genius and a madman, and although it is good to be down-to-earth, if you want to fly against the wind, you must first learn to leave the earth. ”
Ah, what a poetic, empty slogan, I dare not say, but my brain can't stop being sarcastic.
"Okay, I'll try. "The devil makes the gods worse, I agreed to Mr. Xiaogu's suggestion, I don't know if such an ideal will be realized, but I know that for a long time in the future, Mr. Xiaogu's purse will continue to be fat.
I started to practice non-stop, during which I heard that Zhang Liexing was released on bail and went back to H City to continue his exile life, and Wu Tan never appeared in my life again.
I immersed myself in the practice room every day, leaving early and returning late, Gao Qiang suspected that I had other plans, and specially sent people to investigate several times, and it was confirmed that I was practicing the piano and never took care of me again.
Time is like flowing water, from early autumn to midwinter, I have made a small progress in learning the guqin.
Today's heavy snowfall, I said hello to Teacher Xiaogu and did not go to the practice room, and enjoyed the snow alone in the villa.
I have been alone for too long, I have learned to be friends with myself, I pushed open the window, the earth is white, the snow is still falling in large patches, I looked up at the gray sky, I can't help but be poetic, I held back for a long time, only chanted Bai Juyi and his old man, 'I want snow in the evening, can I drink a cup of nothing?'
It's not night, it's already snowing, the mood is wrong, I'm depressed, it seems that I don't have any talent for writing poetry.
Yes, I have the guqin, and now I have a little success, and I can use it now.
I casually tied my long shawl hair into a bun at the back of my head, picked up a fur coat with white fox fur on the cuffs and neckline, put it on, and went to my new piano room on the top floor to take the guqin out.
I went downstairs and instructed my aunt to take down the red sandalwood piano stand and the bronze incense burner and move it to the welcoming Panasonic, and I respectfully burned the incense and inserted it in the incense burner in front of the guqin, and sat down.
The dense pine needles that greeted the guests were covered by the overhead, and I did not have the slightest snowflakes on the piano on my body, but I enjoyed the beautiful snow scene between heaven and earth, and I raised my hand to pluck the strings in my own joy.
Compared with "Guangling San", which I insist on learning, I am more fond of "Mountains and Flowing Water", one is the name, the other is the preference, in the leisure time, naturally the preference occupies the peak.
The sound of the piano poured out from between the fingers, if there was someone beside him at this time, 'green ants newly brewed wine, red clay small stove. I will be grateful, but life is always two or three things less, seven or eight things more, I don't have to be too sentimental about this, people who come out of hard times will never deliberately embarrass themselves.
I was forgetful, squinting my eyes slightly, and only the snow was hazy in my sight, as if I was the only one walking alone in the snow from where I came to go.
The snow in front of me seemed to be dyed, and the black would shake, and I suddenly opened my eyes to see that it was Zhang Liexing in a black leather coat, and he dared to come?
"Sister-in-law is so Yaxing?" he squinted and smiled, his former youth and frivolity had faded a lot, and his old and serious temperament gradually appeared.
It's just an instant shock, after practicing the guqin, my ability to regulate my emotions has also improved a lot, not happy or sad, the piano sound between my fingers continues, as if I have never seen him.
"Brother Zhang, how is it......" Gao Qiang walked out from behind Zhang Liexing, I don't know if he asked about my piano skills or me.
"Ha, it looks like my sister-in-law is still angry with me and ignores me. While speaking, Zhang Liexing stretched out his hand and plucked the strings indiscriminately, disturbing all the sounds of my piano.
