Chapter Twenty-Nine: Making New 'Friends'
At the beginning, the study was tense and boring, and Ren Ying's head was about to explode after memorizing music theory knowledge every day.
And in the new class, there are no friends to talk to, and there is no way to talk to friends if you have difficulties.
Former friends like Xu Min and Ma Tianliang are all busy, and everyone only has occasional phone calls and text messages to contact.
Although the vocal music students are all in the same class, Xia Bing also divides them into several categories.
Like Qian Meier, who has been learning piano since she was a child and is very strong in this area, she specializes in piano performance.
Like Ren Ying, who is a halfway monk, but has better sound conditions, specializes in music performance.
Although music performance focuses on singing, piano is also a basic test item in the art exam. This is sad for Ren Ying.
Although I studied with Mr. Xia for two months, and I also bought a piano to practice at home, I only skillfully played some small etudes or something, as for the finished repertoire, it was a little difficult for Ren Ying to play a prelude, let alone the whole article.
So when I heard the teacher say that she would play "Canon" completely and emotionally before the next professional class, Ren Ying was not good!
When I was studying at night in the evening, everyone else was chatting, and Ren Ying walked to the piano room with the score with a sad face, ready to practice.
"Bang-" The door was suddenly pushed open, Qian Mei'er hurriedly walked in, saw that Ren Ying was also there, and hurriedly said, "Sorry, I'm sorry!" With that, he found a piano and prepared to sit down.
"Eh, weren't you the classmate who got lost last time? Do you remember me? Ren Ying looked at this familiar face and suddenly remembered.
"Y-oh, yes, you helped me with that expansion, didn't you?" Qian Mei'er seemed to suddenly remember, "Thank you, classmate, I haven't seen you all this time, and I can't thank you in person!" ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that I got lost after you left, so everyone looked for me together, and finally wrote a check."
"What? Are you lost? Also wrote about the check? Qian Mei'er immediately looked at Ren Ying with guilt, "I'm sorry, classmate, I'm so sorry, you helped me, and in the end it was you who were unlucky, all because of me..."
"It's okay, you don't have to be like this, it's okay for me to get lost myself!"
Qian Mei'er found that Ren Ying didn't suspect that she was doing it herself, so in this way, the plan would be smoother!
"No, no, it's because of me in the end! I must make it up to you, or I'll be miserable!" ”
"It's all classmates, it's right to help each other, you don't have to compensate me!" Ren Ying just didn't expect to meet her here, and didn't want her to make up for anything.
It was Qian Mei'er who spoke first, "Eh, what's your name?" My name is Qian Meier, and I am from the art examination class. ”
"You're also from the art examination class?" Ren Ying asked in surprise, "I'm also from the art examination class, why don't I have any impression of you?" ”
"Maybe it's the third year of high school, everyone is busy preparing for the exam!" Qian Mei'er panicked and found a reason to prevaricate, she didn't want Ren Ying to know that she was avoiding her every day.
"Well, it should be, my name is Ren Ying, I study vocal music, it's nice to meet you!"
"Well, Ren Ying, what a good name. Hehe, let's stop wasting time and start practicing! ”
"Good!"
After the two finished speaking, they both practiced their respective repertoire.
Ren Ying looked at the score of "Canon", and she was about to collapse from practice! After practicing for more than an hour, the left hand always seemed to be disobedient, always playing wrong, the more anxious the more it worked, and the right hand also played wrong. She thought that when she waited until the next class, she would just make a fool of herself, and she wouldn't be able to play well anyway.
Qian Meier originally followed Ren Ying to the piano room to find an opportunity, and she had already played those tunes well. She listened to the sound of Ren Ying playing, and then watched Ren Ying turn over the score here, and when she turned it over, she knew that she would definitely not be able to play it, so she took her score and walked to Ren Ying's side.
"Ren Ying, I'm done playing. How are you? ”
"Alas, I feel like my hands are going to be wasted! But this "Canon" still can't be played well! ”
"It's so easy, I've been able to stop reading bullets for a long time!"
"Wow, you're so good! It must have been learned from a young age! ”
"Yes, I have been learning piano since I was a child, and I already have an eighth-level certificate!"
"You're awesome!" Ren Ying really admired it in her heart, thinking that it would be nice if she was so powerful.
"Well, I'll help you practice with you, so you'll get up and running quickly."
"Really? Thank you so much! Qian Meier. ”
"It's okay, look, here..."
An hour later...
"Well, now I feel like you're almost done, come back a few more times tomorrow, and you'll be completely fine!"
"Thank you, Sister Qian! If you hadn't helped me for so long, I wouldn't have been able to play it so quickly. ”
"No thanks, they're all classmates! As you said yourself, classmates should help each other! ”
"So, can I ask you about the piano in the future?"
"Yes, welcome at any time!"
"Thank you, thank you! You can call me Xiaoying in the future, my friends around me call me that. ”
"Okay, Xiaoying. That's over, let's go back to the dorm! ”
"Alright, let's go!" After saying that, the two girls packed up their things, closed the door, and returned to the dormitory together.
Back in the dormitory, Ren Ying secretly took out her mobile phone, found a place where there was no one, and called Yuan Qianhao.
"Hey, Qianhao, are you sleeping?"
"No, I'm still reviewing my homework, what's wrong?" Yuan Qianhao hid on the balcony, reading a book while picking up Ren Ying's call.
"I'm so happy today! Originally, I was very irritable when I practiced the piano, but then I met a kind classmate to help me, so I was able to go back to the dormitory so early. Otherwise, I don't know how long I will have to practice in the piano room! ”
"That's good, you complained that no one spoke, but now it's okay, you have friends!"
"Yes! And what a coincidence, you know? She's the same classmate I helped her find her way last time she got lost. She has a good piano, she has passed grade 8, and she said that he can find her if she has any problems in the future. ”
"Well, that's great! Then you don't have to worry about your art exams! ”
"Yes, okay, don't bother you to read, I'm hanging!"
"Okay, bye-bye!" After speaking, Yuan Qianhao turned off his mobile phone and continued to read the book.
Ren Ying also happily put her phone away, washed up, and went to bed.
After school on Friday afternoon, Xia Bing left all the students in the vocal class behind, listened to their respective tunes one by one, and commented on the spot after playing.
Not surprisingly, Ren Ying completed "Canon" very well, Xia Bing looked at her with satisfaction, "Students, although Ren Ying has not learned this knowledge before, but the completion of this song "Canon" is very high, and it also brings a lot of emotions into it, which is worthy of praise, everyone applauds and encourages it!" ”
After speaking, he took the lead in applauding Ren Ying, and whispered, "Don't be proud, keep working hard!" ”
Ren Ying nodded, smiled embarrassedly, she looked up and saw Qian Mei'er looking at her, and gave her a thumbs up.
After it was over, everyone went home for the holidays. Ren Ying hurriedly followed Qian Mei'er, "Thank you, if you hadn't helped me, I wouldn't have been able to play like this." ”
"It's the result of your own efforts, my busyness is nothing!" Qian Mei'er waved her hand embarrassedly.
"Eh, you're welcome, in this way, I invite you to eat, and I thank you!"
"Well, if I refuse, you won't agree, then let's go!"
"Hmm." Ren Ying happily took Qian Mei'er's hand and sat on the bus to the snack street, Qian Mei'er watched Ren Ying holding her hand and did not refuse.
On the way, Ren Ying called Ren Yupu and said that she would go back after dinner. Ren Yupu said a few words, but didn't say anything more.
When she arrived at the snack street, Ren Ying excitedly introduced to Qian Meier, "I used to eat here with my friends, and there are a few excellent snacks here!" ”
"Really? I've never been here before! "Qian Mei'er really hasn't been to these places before," my parents said that these were not clean, and they didn't let me eat them! ”
"Oh, there are unclean and unhygienic things, but there are also hygienic and delicious ones! Let's go, I'll take you! ”
Ren Ying took Qian Mei'er to the door of a stinky tofu and queued for a long time to buy it.
"Try it, it's delicious!"
"But, it stinks!" Qian Meier covered her nose and refused.
"You taste it! Absolutely delicious! Just take a bite! As he spoke, he picked up a piece of tofu with chopsticks and sent it to Qian Mei'er's mouth. Qian Mei'er reluctantly tasted it, and found it delicious.
"Xiaoying, it's really delicious!" As she spoke, Qian Mei'er took all the stinky tofu in Ren Ying's hand.
Ren Ying watched Qian Mei'er gobble up her food, and laughed out loud, "Hahahaha, you slow down, I won't rob you!" ”
"Really tasty! My parents didn't let me eat it before, and I didn't even eat any of them! Qian Mei'er complained to Ren Ying while eating.
"Pathetic! These snacks are delicious, let's go, I'll take you to the front of the fried skewers to try it! After speaking, he pulled Qian Mei'er to the front and ran.
The two ate in the snack street for a long time, and the last bus was gone, so they had to call their respective parents to pick them up.
"Xiaoying, thank you for taking me to eat so many delicious foods today!"
"You're welcome, you've helped me so much, what's wrong with you having some snacks!"
"Xiaoying!" Ren Yupu saw Ren Ying and another girl sitting on the edge of the flower bed from afar, talking and laughing.
"Dad!" Ren Ying was pleasantly surprised to see Ren Yupu coming, turned her head and said to Qian Mei'er, "Qian Mei'er, this is my father!" ”
"Hello uncle!"
"Hello hello, aren't your parents here yet?"
"They'll be there soon! Uncle, you go with Ren Ying first! ”
"Then what's the matter, you're a girl so late and you're out alone! We will wait with you. ”
As he spoke, Ren Yupu parked the car aside and sat on the edge of the flower bed with Ren Ying and them.
"Xiaoying, it's too late today, you see you're all about to take the college entrance examination, you can't do it next time!"
"Dad, today is different. Today I was praised by the teacher, and it is still the piano that I am not good at! ”
"You're not good at it, why are you being praised?" Ren Yupu asked strangely.
"Then I still have to thank the Qian girl next to me! She's so good, the piano is grade 8! It was she who taught me that I would be praised by the teacher, so I had to invite her to eat and thank her! ”
"That's right, thank you so much!"
Qian Mei'er waved her hand embarrassedly, "No, uncle, no thanks, the main thing is that Ren Ying is diligent!" ”
"Eh, don't be modest, okay?" Ren Ying slapped her jokingly.
Just when Qian Mei'er didn't know how to answer, she happened to see her mother walking towards her, and hurriedly said, "Xiaoying, my mother is here, I'll go first, you guys should slow down on the road!" ”
"Okay, bye-bye, see you on Monday!" After speaking, Ren Ying and Ren Yupu got up and went home.
Qian Mei'er turned her head to look at the back of Ren Ying's father and daughter leaving, and she was full of confusion in her heart, and suddenly turned around and went home with her mother.
