Chapter 70: A Grateful Heart
After a low, thick C major column chord, Liu Yufan's hands quickly swept towards the high register, and the C major arpeggios across four octaves were as mighty as galloping horses, and the bright timbre filled the small room.
"Yo, this guy is not only big, but even his voice is so loud."
"Tell me how it can make such a loud noise if it's not plugged in?"
"I'm afraid this thing can't cost more than a thousand dollars."
……
After listening to Liu Yufan's impromptu performance, the onlookers were all amazed. After all, this was the first time they had seen this new instrument, whether it was the shiny lacquer, the long list of black and white keys, and the magical sound, they felt that it was an eye-opener.
Liu Yufan just played a short paragraph casually, and then stopped, Jiang Ya, Ma Wendong and a few others were watching from the side, it was getting dark, and he couldn't help but pick a time to play the piano.
"Yufan, come over here." Seeing Liu Yufan stand up from the front of the qin, Jiang Ya smiled and beckoned to him.
"Hey", Liu Yufan got up and came to another room with Jiang Ya.
Seeing Jiang Ya leave, the neighbors in the house whispered one after another.
"Whose daughter is this, she looks too handsome, just like a fairy in a painting."
"That's it, the skin is white, as if it can pinch out water, and that figure, tsk."
"Jianjun, that woman is a big man from the city."
……
Listening to everyone's discussions, Liu Jianjun didn't know how to explain. He didn't expect that in just one afternoon, Liu Yufan brought Jiang Ya to his home and brought back such a grand piano, which really made him not mentally prepared at all.
"Knock~~~" A long voice sounded, Liu Jianjun looked down, but it was his daughter Liu Xiaoran, who was playing the piano with a fresh face.
"Xiaoran, don't touch it, don't break it." Liu Jianjun shouted in a low voice.
"Oh." Listening to her father's words, the little girl was so frightened that she quickly retracted her hand. But that sound just now is so good, a hundred times better than the organ played by the teacher in the school! I really want to play it again.
The other children were eager to try, but none of them had the courage. Seeing that Liu Xiaoran was all beaten, they didn't dare to step forward.
A group of people gathered around the piano in the east room to see the freshness, and Jiang Ya, who arrived alone in the west room, took out a thick envelope from her handbag as soon as she entered the room.
"Yu Fan, this is for you, there are two thousand in it, which is the money left after buying the piano for you, don't spend it indiscriminately, be careful that your mother spanks you!" Jiang Ya said with a smile, and then handed over the envelope.
"Sister, this is not good, you have already taken a lot of effort to buy me a piano, how can I ask for money, leave this money to the store, buy some equipment or something." Liu Yufan looked at the envelope handed over and said again and again.
"Where is there so much nonsense, let you take it, I have set aside all the working capital in the store, and I also gave Wendong's share, why, if you don't take the money, is there less people who take advantage of it." Jiang Ya quipped.
"No, it doesn't mean that~~" Liu Yufan said a little embarrassed.
"Then what else is pushing? Put it away! Jiang Ya said in an unquestionable tone.
"Oh." Seeing Jiang Ya's resolute face, Liu Yufan, who knew her temper, knew that he couldn't refuse, so he had to reach out and take the envelope, and the heavy feeling made him feel excited. Although he had seen more money than that, it was in the previous life. This is the most money he has earned in his life, two thousand yuan, which is worthy of his father Liu Jianjun for three or four months.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about the piano, I'll explain it to your family. This time, I have a practice piano, practice more every day, and strive to pass the sixth grade in one breath when I take the exam next year. Jiang Ya said.
"Sister, don't worry, I promise to practice for at least three hours a day." Liu Yufan said with an oath.
"Alright, you don't have to show me your resolve here, I'll just watch your actions. Let's go! Jiang Ya waved her hand and walked out of the house with Liu Yufan.
In the kitchen, Chu Qing had already started to get busy, and the fourth aunt next door also followed to help with the cooking, and they were in full swing.
"Auntie, don't be busy, Wendong and I will go back in a while." Jiang Ya saw Chu Qing who was busy and hurriedly said.
"That's not good, it's all the way here, it's okay to leave without eating! You all go into the house for a while, and the meal will be ready in no time. Chu Qing was a little anxious when he heard that a few people were leaving. She is a woman who pays attention to etiquette, these people are guests from afar, and they are big people in the city, especially this Jiang Ya, who is still her son's teacher, came to her house for the first time, and brought such a big piano from afar, and left without even eating, so what's the line!
"Really, auntie, we really have something to do, we have to go back in a while, don't be busy, that, I'll talk to you a few words." Jiang Ya said to Chu Qing.
"Hey, Zhong, you're not allowed to go!" Chu Qing said with a smile, and then wiped his hands.
Seeing Jiang Ya and his mother and father enter the house, Liu Yufan knew in his heart that he was talking about the piano. Seeing that the East House was still so lively, those neighbors were all around the piano to see the freshness, and he was also very proud in his heart.
This piano is probably the only one in the entire garrison camp! Even in Fu'an County, I'm afraid there aren't a few. In the future, he can practice at home every day, and in addition to being excited, Liu Yufan also has some emotion. With the conditions of his own family, he never dreamed that he would be able to own a piano of his own so soon, and it was also a Yamaha. You know, Yamaha's piano is also a good piano in the industry, and a new piano costs 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. I don't know what the price Jiang Ya negotiated with the original owner of the piano was, but it is estimated that it should be a very favorable price.
Thinking of this, Liu Yufan began to be grateful to Jiang Yalai in his heart. Since she met Jiang Ya, she has helped herself too much, although she has also solved a lot of problems for her, but compared to what Jiang Ya did for herself, it was far from enough. I don't know what blessings I have cultivated in my previous life, and I met such an enthusiastic and considerate teacher, oh no, it's my sister. Maybe even God thinks that he was too miserable in his last life, and wants to make up for himself in this life.
"You must fight hard and learn hard to make a name for yourself, so as to live up to my sister's hard work!" Looking at the Yamaha piano that shone with a pitch-black luster, Liu Yufan said secretly in his heart.
"Yufan, play one more for us, it's so good!" The fourth aunt shouted in the kitchen.
"Yes, Yufan, play one more, play one more!" Wang Xiaoyong and Liu Jian both instigated Liu Yufan.
"Okay, then play another one." Seeing that the curiosity of these people skyrocketed, Liu Yufan knew that if he didn't play a section, he wouldn't be able to pass them.
After thinking about it, Liu Yufan sat in front of the piano and gently put his hands on the keys.
With a slight sinking of his hands, a soft chord came out.
I came from chance, like a speck of dust, and who knows my fragility......
Against the backdrop of soft and quiet chords, Liu Yufan gently sang the song "Grateful Heart"
In addition to Jiang Ya, he is more grateful to his parents and family, although they have not been able to give him much help in music, but they have been paying for his own growth. Liu Yufan is no longer the teenager who doesn't understand the world, he has experienced the vicissitudes of the previous life, and he has seen too much about the warmth and coldness of the world, and he suddenly understands that it is his parents and family who care for him in the world. This song "Grateful Heart" is a portrayal of his heart at the moment.
"Grateful heart, thank you for being with me all my life and giving me the courage to be myself!" The hands are raised, the right hand plays a passionate melody with column chords in the high register, and the left hand harmonizes with a series of rushing chords, and the whole music becomes soulful and determined!
"Bang Bang!" At the end of the song, Jiang Ya smiled and applauded.
Led by her, the room clapped their hands, although they were all a little unaccustomed to this.
"Good! Yu Fan, if you sing and play well, you will definitely be a great musician in the future! Ma Wendong said loudly and happily. It's just that by his side, except for the three younger brothers, there is no one. It's really that he looks too fierce, and everyone is a little afraid of him.
"Sister." Looking at Jiang Ya, who didn't know when he was standing next to him, Liu Yufan was a little embarrassed. I was so involved in playing just now that I didn't notice the changes around me at all.
"Okay, Yufan, you can practice slowly, we have to go back quickly, it's getting dark." Jiang Ya said with a smile.
"Sister, let's go after eating." Liu Yufan got up and said hurriedly.
"No, no, wait until the next time you come to my class, hehe, let's go!" Jiang Ya raised her hand as she spoke, and went out with Ma Wendong and a few others.
"This is really, Mr. Jiang, you see that you came all the way and left without even eating a meal, how embarrassing is this." Liu Jianjun said while sending a few people. Chu Qing hurriedly ran to the side room and picked up a large bag of apples. There is nothing else in the countryside, just these apples are grown at home, Chu Qing picked the biggest and reddest one, filled a bag, and sent it to the car without saying anything.
"Liu Yufan, practice the piano well, let's go!" Jiang Ya shook down the glass, waved at Liu Yufan and the others, and the car started slowly, drove forward, and gradually disappeared around the corner of the street.
"Alas, this Teacher Jiang, really." Chu Qing muttered in his mouth.
"Xiao Fan, your Teacher Jiang is a good teacher, and he has a lot of heart for your business. This piano practice, the family will not stop you, as long as your cultural class grades do not fall behind, you will always practice with Teacher Jiang. While walking into the house, Liu Jianjun said to Liu Yufan.
"Ugh." Liu Yufan didn't know what Jiang Ya and his parents had said, but looking at his father's words, it was obvious that the job had been done. Now it's okay, you can rest assured that this piece of the family will be at ease, and in the future, you will be practicing the piano with all your heart!
"Brother, I also want to learn to play the piano, can you teach me to play the piano?" Liu Xiaoran jumped up and down behind Liu Yufan and shouted loudly.
"Okay, no problem, but you have to keep practicing every day!" Liu Yufan, who was in a good mood, said with a smile.
"Yay!" Liu Xiaoran jumped up happily when she heard that she could also learn the piano!
