Chapter 13: Encounter with Wang Fatzi
Xu Yu was worried all morning, his teacher called him last night, saying that there was a friend's nephew who wanted to learn some music knowledge, but the teacher and several senior brothers didn't have time, so he asked him to teach. It's a pity that although he was born into a family of pianos, he has never taught anyone. As a result, he pretended to be worried all morning, and he was so sad that he was out of tune several times when recording his work in the morning.
Looking at the man in front of him who was obviously older than himself, Xu Qiqin had an even more headache. Last night, when I heard the teacher say that it was a friend's nephew, I thought it was a child, but I remembered that I had already taken over this task, so I had to stretch out my right hand.
"Xu, Teacher Xu Qiqin?" Li Xuan stretched out his right hand in surprise, and the young man in front of him, who was about 20 years old, turned out to be the music teacher Jin Daxia introduced to him.
"I'm Xu Yuqin, come in." Xu Qiqin glanced at the man in front of him coldly, turned around and walked towards the house.
This teacher doesn't feel very friendly! Li Xuan touched his nose, but still followed.
"Remember to close the door!"
"Huh? Oh! Close the door, close the door. Li Xuan, who had just entered the house, quickly turned around and closed the door, and then walked inside.
The layout of this house is similar to the house rented by Li Xuan, with three bedrooms and two living rooms. However, in the living room of Li Xuan's house, in addition to the sofa TV, there is a big coffee table, and this one is a big piano, placed on the side of the balcony.
Li Xuan casually put the fruit basket on the TV cabinet, but he didn't see Xu Qiqin in the living room.
Where did the people go? Li Xuan tilted his head sideways and looked for it, as if he was in the study.
"Bang"
With a muffled sound, Xu Qiqin closed the door of the study and walked out with a stack of papers.
"Teacher Xu, I ......"
"Don't be so polite, let's get straight to the point." Xu Qiqin interrupted Li Xuan's words and walked directly to the piano and sat down, still looking at the paper in his hand, obviously thinking about how to start teaching students.
Li Xuan, who was stunned for a moment, hurriedly walked to the piano and said, "Ah, okay, by the way, Mr. Xu, where do we learn ......?"
"That's not the point!" Xu Qiqin finally put down the stack of papers in his hand, looked up at Li Xuan and said: "The main topic is that I only have time to teach you from Monday to Friday, and 12:30 to 2 o'clock at noon every day for the past five days is the time to teach you." As for the tuition, an hour and a half, charge you 100, cheaper for you, how about it? ”
"Huh?" Li Xuan was stunned, why was such a wonderful teacher talking about money at the beginning.
"No way?" Xu Qiqin asked with a frown.
How dare you do this, you were introduced by Jin Daxia, Li Xuan hurriedly returned: "Okay, okay!" ”
At this time, Xu Qiqin was satisfied, and casually picked up the top piece of the stack of papers and said: "Then it's decided, let's start, you first tell me how much you know about music theory?" ”
"Music theory?" Li Xuan was dumbfounded, he still wanted to find a teacher to teach him, so he never went to get a music book to read, and he was asked now.
"You don't come here without knowing anything, do you?" At this time, even Xu Yuqin was shocked, and looked at Li Xuan with his mouth open, how could he be such a strange student!
At this time, Li Xuan had the intention of hiding his face and running away from the door, and said cowardly: "I know, I know, I know that Jian Pu and Duo Lai Mi are shivering......"
Li Xuan couldn't go on, Xu Yuqin's face was already dark.
"I don't know how to write notation, even if you learn it, you can only learn staves. And ......" Xu Qiqin, who had a black face, gritted his teeth and glanced at Li Xuan, and continued: "I guess you don't understand anything, right?" ”
Li Xuan nodded helplessly.
"Woo, it's okay, it's okay!" Xu Qiqin suddenly seemed to have reacted to something and breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, the teacher just said that you should teach you a little music knowledge, otherwise I would have died." ”
Li Xuan gritted his back molars, this gloating guy! But who is his teacher? I didn't hear that Jin Daxia knew music.
Now Xu Yuqin was much happier, put the stack of paper aside, sat down in front of the piano and said: "Then I will teach you to do solfeggio ear training first, and it is a waste to teach the others now." ”
"Ear training?" Li Xuan asked strangely, what a strange name.
Xu Qiqin ignored Li Xuan, and directly pressed the piano key with his index finger.
"Knock"
The piano struck a bit.
"What's the sound?" Xu Qiqin asked at Li Xuan.
What else can this sound like? Li Xuan looked at Xu Yueqin inexplicably and said, "Knock? ”
"No, no, oops!" Xu Yueqin patted his forehead regretfully: "I forgot that you don't understand anything, remember, this is called, that kind of peaceful and standard." ”
"La," Li Xuan learned inexplicably
"Yes, that's it, you listen to the following sound." Seeing that Li Xuan had learned, Xu Yueqin pressed the piano keys again.
"Knock—"
"La-" Listening to it, the tone seemed to be a little higher, and Li Xuan also pulled it up.
"No, no, it's a little bit higher, just a little bit!"
"Ah-" Li Xuan shouted again, but he really didn't feel any difference from the previous one.
"Yes, yes, let's learn the next note."
Li Xuan, who was forced to do so, learned all kinds of things at noon, and his voice was almost hoarse. In the end, Xu Qiqin even played the piano music and asked Li Xuan to listen to it next to him.
I practiced until almost two o'clock, and Xu Qiqin stopped: "Learn this today, you can go back, remember to bring this month's tuition tomorrow." ”
Li Xuan, who had been tossed half to death, replied weakly: "Oh, then Mr. Xu, I'll go back first." After saying that, he turned around and planned to go out.
"Wait a minute!" Xu Yuqin, who was behind, suddenly screamed again.
"Huh?" Li Xuan looked back at him suspiciously.
Xu Qiqin didn't explain, stood up and walked to the study, and tossed for a long time before walking out with a flat cardboard box like a later express letter, but this cardboard box was square.
Looking at the things in his hand, Xu Qiqin directly handed the things to Li Xuan: "Take it." ”
Li Xuan took the cardboard box, only to find that this box was much larger than the express mail, and the cover of the box was printed with a foreigner playing the piano. When he opened the box, Li Xuan found a large black disc film lying inside.
"What is this?"
"You're going to practice this disc a few times every morning, just like you did today."
"Huh?" Li Xuan was stunned, how tired this was, and hurriedly asked with a bitter face, "Then how long do I have to practice?" ”
Xu Qiqin looked at Li Xuan's bitter face and said with contempt: "Practice until I press a piano key, and you can accurately sing which note it is." ”
"Huh?" Li Xuan's face became even more bitter, and he said cowardly: "Why is it so troublesome to learn to compose!" ”
"Composition? Simple? You think you can compose a music by humming two minor tunes? Xu Qiqin sneered and said, "You don't know how to write when you listen to the sound?" How do you know how to write? I have been studying piano since I was a child, and now I dare not say that I have become a composer for more than 20 years. ”
Oh my God, Li Xuan felt like he was coming to the end of the world. Why is it so hard to learn to compose? Isn't it that many otaku are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting as soon as they cross, then writing songs is like, one song and one song. Do you want to learn to sing a cappella yourself? But which song is a cappella? Don't you all have to have a soundtrack......
Li Xuan didn't know how to get out of Xu Qiqin's house, but he remembered that he heard a "bang" sound of the door closing in a daze, and he was standing outside Xu Qiqin's house.
He looked at the closed door, and then at the black disc film he was holding. Li Xuan shook his head, it's not easy to do any line of work. However, I don't have to go out to buy an old-fashioned disc player in the afternoon, and now there are no machines for Black Butterfly film in the mall, all of which are cassette recorders with clear water.
Li Xuan walked into the elevator and pressed the elevator door closing button, and the elevator began to go down.
8th Floor ......
7th Floor ......
...... the sixth floor, the elevator stopped.
The elevator door opened, and a little fat man walked in with a stack of papers. The little fat man's whole face was flushed, as if he had just finished running three thousand meters.
Li Xuan, who was holding the disc, glanced at the little fat man, and his eyes couldn't leave, staring at the little fat man.
As soon as he walked into the elevator, the little fat man who was frightened by Li Xuan's strange eyes became nervous, standing in front of Li Xuan with his back to him and looking at the elevator door.
5th Floor ......
4th Floor ......
3rd Floor ......
Li Xuan couldn't help it, and asked directly at the fat man in front of him with his back to him, "Are you Wang Jin?" ”
"Ahh The little fat man in front seemed to be taken aback, and hurriedly shouted: "I'm not, I'm not, I'm not Wang Jin, you recognize the wrong person!" Don't cut me, don't cut me! ”
"Bang"
The nervous little fat man fell to the ground, and the paper in his hand was scattered all over the ground.
"Ding"
A bell rang, the elevator doors opened, and it was up to the first floor.
