Chapter 637: Niu Niu's Apprenticeship (Second Shift)
Ji Rong has always been efficient, originally said that he was going to buy a piano, but after listening to Le Tong's words, he made a phone call to find a good teacher. A few minutes later, the other party replied to the phone, saying that he had contacted the principal violinist of the R City Orchestra, and the other party wanted to meet the child before making a decision.
"No problem, we can go out now, you ask him to give a meeting place, and we will take the child over to meet."
Ji Rong also loves Niuniu, this little girl is usually very sensible, and she almost makes very small requests, and now she says that she wants to learn the violin, she must really like it, so she can't help but take the opportunity of her birthday to say it.
Therefore, he didn't want Niuniu to always be worried about not being down-to-earth, so he directly asked the other party to make an appointment to meet immediately, okay, if not, quickly find another teacher.
Anyway, in his father's opinion, his daughter likes it, as for whether he has talent or not, and whether he will achieve something in the future is not within the scope of his consideration.
After a few more minutes, the other party called back again, "Mr. Ji, Mr. Fan said that he is free now, I will send you his address and contact number, you can contact again." β
Le Tong changed Niuniu into a pure white beautiful princess dress, Dabao combed her sister's princess hair, and the family of four went out like a princess.
Le Tong originally thought that the other party would meet in a cafΓ© or something, but who knows, this Teacher Fan made a direct appointment to meet in his own piano room in a certain community.
Standing at the gate of the community waiting for them, a man in his thirties, not very handsome, but very elegant in temperament, wearing a very ordinary white shirt and black trousers, but giving people a particularly elegant feeling.
"Teacher Fan?" Le Tong got out of the car first to catch up.
"Yes, I am! You're Mrs. Ji, right? β
"Yes, hello! I'm Ji Sihan's mother Le Tong! β
Ji Rong and the three children also got out of the car, stood at the door of the community and briefly introduced each other, and Teacher Fan led the family of five into the community.
The introducer is an official of the Municipal Bureau of Culture, and he must have mentioned Ji Rong's identity to this teacher Fan.
But Mr. Fan is no different from Ji Rong and Le Tong as he is to ordinary people, and he has never shown special politeness or courtesy because of Ji Rong's identity and status. And the arrogance and personality of an artist like him made Le Tong add a lot of points to him in private.
Originally, he was not obsessed with having to ask him for a teacher, but after meeting the real person and seeing his conversation and temperament, Le Tong secretly prayed that his baby daughter could live in the eyes of this teacher.
Teacher Fan led them to the front of the small courtyard, pushed open the wooden fence, and there was a small garden with a small area, the garden was full of all kinds of flowers and plants, and the fragrance of osmanthus flowers came to their faces.
Teacher Fan pushed open the door of the piano room, took off his shoes and walked in, and Le Tong also took off his shoes and walked in barefoot.
There is a carpet inside, except for two couches, a coffee table and a few stools next to the wall, there is almost no other furniture, the walls are hung with large and small violins, and there are some portraits of famous musicians, and in the innermost place against the wall, there is a piano, and next to it, there is a music stand.
"Sit down!"
Teacher Fan beckoned them to sit down, pushed open a door next to him, and soon saw him coming out with a tray on which there were several cups of steaming tea.
The Ji family took the tea separately, and Teacher Fan dragged the stool over and sat opposite them.
"I heard Du Ju say that your child wants to learn the violin, which one is it?" The gaze naturally swept over the three brothers and sisters.
Niuniu, who is usually very timid, didn't wait for her parents to speak, so she slid down from the sofa and stood up straight, raised her little hand and said loudly, "Hello teacher, it's Niuniu who wants to learn!" β
Teacher Fan's gaze turned to Niuniu, with no expression on her face, but her gaze was very focused.
"Well, Niuniu is good! What is your name? β
Niuniu immediately replied in a loud and crisp voice, "Report to the teacher, Niuniu's name is Ji Sihan." β
Le Tong held back a smile on the side, it seems that the intensive training of the two instructors for more than a month has not only trained the children's skills to be agile, but also cultivated courage and discipline.
"Well, then can you tell the teacher, why do you want to learn the violin?"
Le Tong secretly pinched a sweat for her daughter, and was thinking about whether to help her daughter give a perfect answer, here, Niuniu blinked her beautiful eyes, and said without thinking about it, "Because it sounds good!" β
There was a naΓ―ve look on her face, and in her opinion, this reason was sufficient.
Teacher Fan smiled slightly, this was the first time Le Tong had seen him smile.
I thought, it seems that there is a play.
"Come, come here." Teacher Fan beckoned to Niuniu.
Niu Niu hesitated slightly, turned her head to look at Dabao, Dabao winked at her, and secretly gave her a thumbs up, and the little girl turned around and walked with Teacher Fan to the piano.
Teacher Fan pointed to a small stool next to him, "You can sit!" β
Niuniu paused, Le Tong's heart immediately tightened, if it was changed to Xiaobao, she would sit down immediately, Niuniu's guts, it seems that she still needs to exercise well.
Fortunately, after hesitating for a few seconds, the little girl still sat down obediently, and her sitting posture was like in kindergarten, with her waist straight, her knees together, and a pair of small hands flat on her knees.
Teacher Fan glanced at her sideways and smiled lightly again, as if he was very satisfied with her well-behaved.
"Sihan, the teacher plays a tune, you listen carefully."
Niuniu's eyes widened and she nodded with an "um".
Teacher Fan turned to face the piano, his fingers fluttering on the black and white keys, and then played a melodious piece.
This piece of music, which Le Tong has heard, is a passage from the Ave Maria.
The melodious sound lasted for dozens of seconds, and then suddenly stopped.
Teacher Fan turned his head and met Niuniu's big black and clear eyes.
"Does it sound good?"
"Yes, that's good!" Niu Niu answered honestly.
"Have you heard this before?" Teacher Fan asked again.
Dabao, who was sitting on the sofa, lifted his heart. If he's not mistaken, Niu Niu should have never heard this tune, unless, she heard it at school.
Sure enough, the little girl sitting on the stool quickly shook her head, "I haven't heard of it!" β
Teacher Fan didn't seem surprised by this result at all, "Well, can Sihan hum the tune that the teacher just played once?" β
Dabao grabbed Le Tong's hand, it seemed that he was nervous for Niuniu, and Le Tong, like Dabao, was also very nervous.
People in the family, basically no one has artistic cells, and usually even music is rarely played at home, and now Teacher Fan asks Niuniu to hum the original song after only listening to it once, can Niuniu pass the test?
