"Teacher Jiang, but my current state seems to be a little poor, and I lack actual acting experience, I'm afraid that if I mess up, it will ruin your and Wei Lao's reputation." Chu Ning's eyes dimmed, she had never had experience in performing at such a large-scale event, and suddenly she had to share the stage with a world-class master, and she was afraid and uneasy in her heart.

"Chu Ning, Mr. Jiang is not an emotional person, if you don't have a good musical talent and dedication to music, the teacher may not be so aggressive, the teacher doesn't want to say that you have to have confidence or something like that, because music speaks by strength, not only confidence can succeed. Although the teacher doesn't quite understand why you have to come to work in 'Shen Yuan', because the teacher believes that becoming a performer or musician is not something that happens overnight, because you not only have to have enthusiasm and dedication to music, and your own talent, but also the continuous efforts of the day after tomorrow, no matter what kind of environment you are in, you can also develop your strengths, so the teacher does not object to the nature of your work, because you have all the above conditions, what is lacking is these opportunities and training, and these, It's exactly what the teacher wants to help you. Jiang Xu looked at Chu Ning Zhengse.

"Teacher Jiang, I've been taught!" Chu Ning nodded involuntarily.

It stands to reason that Jiang Xu could no longer pay so much attention to her, but from graduation to the present, Jiang Xu still calls from time to time to ask about her homework, and often gives guidance, and today is even more for her future, she made a special trip from Wuyang to 'Shen Yuan', although the journey is not far away, but for Jiang Xu, who is so busy, this is extremely rare.

"This is your opportunity, and it is also what you have won with your own strength, so you don't have to thank me! Because the teacher doesn't want to bury any good musical talent. Jiang Xu waved his hand.

"So what do I need to do to prepare?" Chu Ning gritted her teeth, although she was still a little unconfident, she already had the mentality of trying.

"No, I have mentioned this matter to Dean Shen just now, and she also expressed her full support, and will arrange a lightening course for you later, so you just need to calm down, and the other selection of songs will be designated by Wei Lao, maybe the focus of the selection will not be in terms of performance skills, but more to highlight the Chinese national style, according to your current level, there should not be too much pressure." The final piece will be finalized in two days, and then I will come back to 'Shen Yuan' and talk to you about the precautions and details when playing. ”

"Okay, I'll adjust my mood as soon as possible to prepare for the fight." Chu Ning nodded and said.

After sending Jiang Xu away, Chu Ning's heart had been hanging, and before she could calm down a little, she saw Fang Weizhen panting and running in her direction.

"Storage--"

"Virgin, what's wrong? There is no doubt that you are in a hurry. ”

"Listen to Director Wu, a teacher in Wuyang came to look for you, so I want to see who it is?"

"It's Teacher Jiang Xu, do you know what is going on?" Chu Ning deliberately sold Guanzi.

"Teacher Jiang Xu, I won't ask you to go back to be his little follower, right?" When Fang Weizhen heard that Jiang Xu was coming, she was a little anxious, after all, when she graduated, Jiang Xu had the intention to keep Chu Ning in Wuyang to continue her studies.

"No, he said that Master Wei Yecheng is going to come to Jiangcheng to hold a large-scale concert at Christmas, and many music masters will come to perform!"

"Wow! Then you don't want to feast your eyes, but I'm also his student, why is he so partial? Fang Weizhen was extremely dissatisfied with this.

"Virgin, you must not have imagined that this time I was not asked to go to the show, but to participate in the show!"

"--, to the show?" Fang Weizhen's tongue suddenly knotted a little: "Chu Ning--, can you make it clear?" I'm dying. ”

"Teacher Jiang said that Master Wei Yecheng wants to invite me to perform on the same stage with them."

"It's as simple as that?"

"Yes! How complicated could it be? ”

"Oh my God! Our Chu Ning, future performer, congratulations! Fang Weizhen waved Chu Ning's arm excitedly.

"Virgin, can you keep a low profile?" Chu Ning stretched out his index finger and put it to his mouth, signaling Fang Weizhen's movements to be smaller.

"It's great news, and I want everyone to know, why keep it low?"

"Actually, I'm worried that I'm going to mess up the performance, besides, the top masters didn't even have the opportunity to contact before, and now they want to perform on the same stage, and my scalp is numb when I think about it."

"From now on, you don't have to worry about anything, just concentrate on practicing, I will discuss with several other big sisters and aunts about the classes you lead, and help you top, I believe they will fully support you."

"Virgin, this can't be done, I got a salary, I can't break this precedent, and the dean has already said that it will reduce my course, how can you let it all be topped?"

"The dean's mother is so reasonable, she will definitely agree with my approach."

In the next month, Chu Ning insisted on teaching the children in the morning every day, Shen Huijun only symbolically arranged two classes for Chu Ning in the morning in order to take care of Chu Ning's feelings, and the rest of the time was all allocated by herself, so Chu Ning often ran on both sides of Wuyang and 'Shen Yuan', fortunately, the routes on the two sides were not too far apart, and Shen Huijun would arrange vehicle pick-up and drop-off every time, so in addition to high-intensity rehearsals, there was basically no worries.

Wei Yecheng finally chose the song for Chu Ning is "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", which is actually a piece that is extremely strict in terms of technique and technique, and there are many versions played, but it is rare to be able to interpret this piece into a classic.

There was only a week left before the performance, and after Chu Ning finished class, he hurried to Wuyang, but unexpectedly found that Teacher Jiang Xu was waiting in the piano room.

"Chu Ning, I won't practice the piano in the morning, and the teacher just doesn't have a class, so it's better to take you out to relax!" After seeing Chu Ning, Jiang Xu got up and walked towards the outside of the piano room.

"Teacher Jiang, there is still a week to participate in the performance, don't you have to hurry up and practice?" Chu Ning asked puzzled.

"Don't worry! It won't delay your practice. ”

After about forty minutes, Jiang Xu parked his car on a large barren meadow surrounded by mountains on three sides and a lake in the middle.

Chu Ning got out of the car with doubts, and found that in addition to the endless meadow in front of him, there was only clear lake water left, but the lake had formed a thick layer of ice, and the lake was full of reeds, but the reeds had already been stripped of their stems and leaves, and only the reed poles were left hanging in clusters.

"Teacher Jiang, what kind of place is this?"

"Is it pretty?" Jiang Xu also got out of the car and took Chu Ning to a dry grass not far from the lake, and then found a clean place to sit on the ground.

"Growing up, I always felt that my hometown was the most beautiful. In spring, the river thaws, and peach blossoms bloom in front of and behind the house; In early summer, the willows hung down to the lotus pond in front of the house, waving up waves of ripples; In autumn, the sun sets and the sky is full of sunset, and people are fishing comfortably by the river; In winter, when the snow covers the earth, the glass freezes, and the rivers and ponds freeze, the pines and cypresses and evergreens that are still standing proudly in the wind and snow make people see the hope of spring, and feel that the cold winter is no longer cold, and spring is coming soon. Chu Ning also sat down beside Jiang Xu, and she talked eloquently about the beauty of her hometown, her eyes full of longing and hope.

"How does it compare to here?" Jiang Xu turned his head and asked.

"It's different, the beauty of the hometown makes people feel comfortable and warm, but the beauty here is shocking, although every grass and reed here has long since withered, they are still standing upright, showing people the strength of vitality, as if to inform people--" Chu Ning pecked in an uncertain tone, raised his head later, and said to Jiang Xu in a firm tone: "Yes! It is a warning to people not to bow to fate easily. ”

Jiang Xu's face finally showed a satisfied smile.

"But teacher, how did you come up with the idea of bringing me here?" Chu Ning saw Jiang Xu's smile and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"This place has a special meaning for the teacher, and it is a place where Xiaoxuan and I used to come often." Jiang Xu's eyes were also a little dim, and after a while, he continued: "But at that time, I was very poor, and I had to come from Wuyang every time I pedaled a bicycle for a long time. ”

"Teacher, you must have been very romantic at that time, right?"

"I'm not a romantic person, in fact, Xiaoxuan infected me, this treasure land is her latest discovery, spring and autumn will be more beautiful, at that time she also jokingly said, this is our place of love." Jiang Xu looked at the river in front of him, and his eyes showed a smile inadvertently.

With a pious heart, Chu Ning looked around again, and sighed more and more in his heart.

"Chu Ning, you just asked the teacher why he thought of bringing you here, this is exactly what the teacher wants to tell you." Jiang Xu turned his head to look at Chu Ning again.

Chu Ning shook his head and expressed puzzlement.

"Did you know? Your current state is worrying! ”

"Teacher Jiang--" She looked at Jiang Xu puzzled, but she already had some understanding in her heart.

Jiang Xu changed his sitting position, he supported the ground with his hands, then looked up at the sky, and continued:

"Chu Ning, you have pressure in your heart, if the teacher guessed correctly, this pressure is not from your major, but from your mood, has it been a long time, right? When you took me as a senior for the first time in the piano room, the teacher found out that you were very vigilant, so strong that ordinary people couldn't enter your heart.

For example, Zhang Shaoyang, the teacher knows that his family is a musical family, and a large family can form a large symphony orchestra together. People from such a family are impeccable in terms of character and recuperation, and it is even more rare that they have been clean and self-conscious for several years in college, but they have been happily waiting downstairs in your dormitory for a few years, and you are unmoved at all, so the teacher guesses, if you don't have a person in your heart, how can you be so indifferent? ”
