Chapter 111 Tea House
In the afternoon, after Si Jinyan finished finishing the exercise book, Mr. Wu and Mr. Qin called her to come out for afternoon tea.

After saying hello to the old lady, I changed my clothes and went to the teahouse.

The environment of the teahouse is quiet, besides drinking tea, there is also a storytelling stand.

It was probably because in the afternoon, everyone was a little drowsy, and the storyteller on the stage spoke passionately, but it didn't cheer up the guests.

In the lobby on the first floor, there were people drinking tea and playing cards, so it wasn't too noisy.

Si Jinyan even saw a few familiar figures here.

It was the elder who had met at Si Jinxi's birthday party before.

People in suits and leather shoes sit here and draw cards.

After sweeping his gaze, Si Jinyan went to the box on the second floor.

As soon as he entered the room, Si Jinyan saw that besides Mr. Wu and Mr. Qin, there was also Ruan Mao'er.

She was making tea, and her craftsmanship looked much better than before, but her posture was as beautiful and elegant as ever.

There is a smoker burning on the tea table where the tea is made, and the mist curls up.

There are even paintings hanging on the walls of the box, but the fine brushwork is so-so, not considered a masterpiece.

What's rare is that the owner of this tea house is a bit elegant.

"Sister Jinyan is here, sit down quickly, my tea has just been brewed." Ruan Yaner saw Si Jinyan first, and greeted her.

Mr. Qin and Mr. Wu were holding a tablet computer in their hands and muttering something, when they heard Ruan Mao'er's greeting, they hurriedly looked up at the door.

Seeing the little girl standing there like a green pine, looking intact, they all heaved a sigh of relief.

"Jinyan, come here, come here." Elder Qin beckoned her to sit next to him.

The tables and chairs in the tea house are the kind of square wooden tables and Taishi chairs that are more ancient.

The table for making tea is on the other side, which is separate from the table.

Originally, for the convenience of watching the video, Mr. Qin and Mr. Wu always sat next to each other. Except for the seat opposite Mr. Qin, there was only an empty seat beside her.

After Si Jinyan greeted Ruan Yan'er, he sat down beside Qin Lao.

He did not see the flash of resentment in Ruan Yan'er's eyes.

A little girl, because of a video, won the favor of Mr. Qin and Mr. Wu. Now she not only wants to cook tea for Mr. Qin and Mr. Wu, but also cooks tea for that little girl!

Although she was dissatisfied from the bottom of her heart, she still looked like a gentle and kind big sister on her face.

Served the three of them the brewed tea, and finally sat down opposite Mr. Qin.

At this time, Mr. Qin and Mr. Wu were showing Si Jinyan the video on the tablet, "What do you think, little girl?"

The video is a section in the middle of a game.

A boy who looks about 15 years old is holding a pipa in his hand and playing Flying Daggers.

After watching the video, Si Jinyan didn't make his own evaluation, but smiled lightly: "It's good that the two teachers like it."

As soon as she said this, Mr. Qin and Mr. Wu looked at each other, knowing that this girl didn't like it very much, and put the tablet on the table, Mr. Qin said with a smile: "You don't even like this kind of girl, you have too much eyesight, girl." Higher."

Si Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what Qin Lao meant by this.

Does it matter if she can't see the boy in the video?

Since it's a competition, as long as the judges like it, what does it have to do with her?

Seeing her expression, Mr. Wu sighed and said, "You and I, Grandpa Qin, originally wanted you to take this child as your apprentice, but since you don't like it, then forget it."

"Grandpa Wu, Jinyan's younger sister is still a child, how can I take a child who is about the same age as her apprentice." Before Si Jinyan could speak, Ruan Yaner next to him interjected with a smile.

"What's the matter? Apprentices are judged by their skill level, not their age status. If that kid can really be named under Yan girl's name, it will be his blessing." Old Qin said.

In fact, it was originally the child's parents who entrusted someone to ask one of them to accept the child as an apprentice, but they had already decided not to accept the child as an apprentice, so naturally it was impossible to agree.

But they no longer accept apprentices, their apprentices can accept them.

Nowadays, for the two elders, Si Jinyan is their most proud apprentice. Although the two did not teach Si Jinyan anything, and Si Jinyan did not officially become a teacher, this did not prevent the two of them from taking good care of Miao Zi in Si Jinyan's name. Down.

"Grandpa Qin, you naturally understand what you said, but Jinyan's younger sister is about to enter her third year of high school. If she accepts apprentices at this time, it won't be good if it affects her studies. What does Jinyan's younger sister think?"

Si Jinyan took a sip of tea from the teacup, the taste was not bad, it seems that Ruan Mao'er really worked hard.

"It's not impossible to accept apprentices, but this child is not suitable to be my apprentice." The young and delicate face said after glancing at the screen that was still on.

"Why is that?" Elder Wu asked.

Ruan Yan'er didn't expect that she would be so disrespectful to her, that she would actually have plans to accept apprentices, and that she would dare to speak so brazenly, even thinking about how much money she had.

Recalling that she said chimes were not suitable for entertainment as a musical instrument, she seemed to disdain chimes, which made her feel that this little girl was too loud and arrogant.

"This child is talented and has good piano skills, but his temperament is not stable, so he is not suitable to learn piano from me."

No matter what kind of artistic expression, creators will more or less mix their own personality and ideas into it. Although what they express may be other people's things, emotions and life experiences cannot be concealed.

No matter how high the skills are, the subconscious cannot be abandoned.

She only heard a few notes just now, and she knew that this child looked calm on the surface, but in fact there was a hint of impetuousness conveyed in the sound of the piano.

Not noticeable, but not inaudible.

Elder Qin and Elder Wu obviously heard it too, so when Si Jinyan's words came out, they both sighed in no surprise.

No one wants to find a person with a pure heart to be his disciple, but the times are developing fast, the society is under too much pressure, material desires are rampant, and people are impetuous. If you want to find a person among them who is talented, willing to work hard, and can still maintain the original heart It is too difficult.

Perhaps the two of them could persist in the early years.

But now, they have seen too many students who were fascinated by wealth and honor finally gave up music, and even made music into nondescript products just to cater to the public.

They already don't have much expectation of finding such a person.

"I'm afraid my sister doesn't know. Although this child is young, he has already won many trophies, and he once performed overseas as a pipa representative of the national folk music. Such an excellent child is hard to find now. How many have come out?" Ruan Xie'er said again.

This matter had nothing to do with her originally, but hearing Si Jinyan's arrogant tone made her feel displeased and wanted to kill her prestige.

Si Jinyan glanced at Ruan Mao'er, and suddenly remembered what Yan Shaochen said to Falcon: Those who slipped through the nine-year compulsory education can't even do basic reading comprehension.

She didn't say that the child was not good, but just felt that she was not suitable to be her apprentice.

The matter of accepting apprentices is based on eye contact, not just accepting them.

If it is so casual, then there is no point in recruiting disciples.

Not to mention the master-student inheritance.

Ruan Mao'er felt a little uncomfortable at her look, as if she was pitying herself.

What right does she have to pity herself?
It's just an illegitimate daughter!

"Jin Yan, what are you laughing at, sister? Am I wrong?" The smile on the corner of her lips was a bit forced and a little fake.

"No, you are right. It's just that whether he is good or not has nothing to do with me. If you like it, you can give it a try." Si Jinyan leaned on the back of the grand master's chair, feeling a little lazy.

The words were spoken casually, with a bit of elegance and dignity that cannot be ignored.

Even though he was in front of two big bosses and elders, Si Jinyan didn't seem to feel uncomfortable in the slightest. Instead, he was as comfortable as himself, and the aura around him suppressed even Elder Qin and Elder Wu.

Ruan Yan'er looked at her like this, then glanced at Mr. Qin and Mr. Wu who didn't seem to care at all, smiled and said: "I didn't learn a musical instrument from him, how can I recruit students across majors, my sister is just joking." gone."

"Why, you only learned chime making?" Si Jinyan raised his eyebrows in astonishment.

When Ruan Yan'er heard the words, she felt a sting in her heart.

What does she mean by that?
What do you mean she only learned chime making?

Does she know how much she has paid to learn chime weaving well?

Her chime chime is easy to learn, so she should learn a few more instruments. Is the expression looking down on her?
The smile was a bit stiff, "I really only learned chime chime making, and I have a specialization in art. It's better to concentrate on learning something. If you are half-hearted, it's easy to lose sight of things, and you don't learn anything well in the end."

"I just don't know how many musical instruments Jinyan's younger sister has learned?"

Downstairs at this time, the voice of storytelling was gone, replaced by Pingtan, and the voice of pipa came, singing "Yingying worships the moon".

Wu Nong's soft language accent is soft and delicate, swaying like a boat in the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. The rain and mist are misty, like falling into a fairyland among the clouds.

Si Jinyan listened lazily, and thought it was much better than Cai Cai's storytelling.

Even the sound of the pipa in the audience is more comfortable to listen to than that played by the child in the video.

"Except for western musical instruments, I know a little bit about others." Si Jinyan said casually.

The audience was singing: "Bow your head and kneel to Pudun, and hope that the gods will listen to my sincere feelings."

The story of Cui Yingying also existed in Chaofeng Kingdom, but the yin and yang turned around, that Zhang Junrui became Cui Yingying, and Cui Yingying became Zhang Junrui.

It was supposed to be a story of a beautiful woman's heart being betrayed, but she found out here that Cui Yingying finally got married with Zhang Junrui and forged a beautiful marriage.

Maybe everyone didn't like the sad ending, but this version of Cui Yingying seems to be more popular.

Si Jinyan listened intently, so he didn't notice the disdain that flashed across Ruan Yan'er's face after she finished speaking.

"I didn't expect that sister Jinyan is only 17 years old, but she is already so versatile. I just don't know if we will have the opportunity to see the eighteen talents of Jinyan sister today?" Make a fool of yourself.

"Huh?" Si Jinyan looked away from the table and landed on Ruan Yan'er. His eyebrows were raised slightly, and he had a heroic face. He didn't have the femininity of a woman, but he had a heroic air. He's even more handsome than a man, making Ruan Mao'er's heart skip a beat when she sees it.

Quickly returning to his senses, he repeated what he had just said.

Si Jinyan didn't know if it was because he was in a good mood after hearing the scene of Cui Yingying and Zhang Junrui's lovers finally getting married, or if it was something else, but he said straightforwardly: "If there is a piano, it is not impossible."

Ruan Yan'er raised her mouth and said with a smile: "Don't worry about this Jinyan sister. I happen to know the owner of the restaurant, and he is quite a gentleman. I just heard that he has collected a lot of musical instruments. If my sister Jinyan is willing, I will give him a call." Call and see if I can borrow one of his instruments."

Si Jinyan shrugged his shoulders, saying it didn't matter.

On the contrary, Elder Qin and Elder Wu were a little excited.

Unexpectedly, it has been a few days since I heard this girl play the piano, but now I can listen to her playing music with various instruments.

The two of them didn't seem to worry that Si Jinyan would not, and they had full confidence in her.

It was four o'clock, and the number of guests in the teahouse began to increase.

This place is not just for drinking tea and playing cards, there are also boxes for dining.

There are also many people who will talk about things here.

Although there were more people, it was not too noisy, and the Pingtan on the stage was replaced with a piece of White Snake.

The woman's delicate voice sang slowly, sultry.

Ruan Mao'er came in after a while, with a smile on her face, it was obvious that she had succeeded.

"The owner of the teahouse will be here in five minutes, and he said he will take us there in person."

Si Jinyan nodded in agreement.

The tea on the table was almost drunk, Si Jinyan ate something on the plane at noon, he would be hungry by now, reached for the menu on the side, flipped through it, and found that the name of the dish on it was also called Yazhi , then pressed Ling to call the waiter over.

"Girl, are you hungry?"

"Yeah." Si Jinyan nodded, and asked Wu and the elders if they wanted to order food.

It wasn't long before the three had eaten, and they had tea and snacks just now, and they were not hungry at all, so they all shook their heads.

A waiter in a cheongsam came over and asked Si Jinyan what he wanted.

Si Jinyan pointed to the menu and said, "A pot of soup with blooming plums, a plate of fresh vegetables from the forest, and a bowl of rice with carved wild rice."

The waiter placed the order next to him, and he didn't forget to ask: "Do you know what these three things are? Are there any taboos?"

Si Jinyan nodded, "No, just follow the usual practice."

The waiter was about to leave when he heard the words, Ruan Mao'er suddenly said: "Sister, please don't blame me for talking too much, the owner of this teahouse likes to have a taste, so if you don't explain the names of the dishes, it may be difficult for people who come here for the first time to know." What is this thing. Jinyan seems to be the first time my sister came here, I think it's better to ask clearly. Otherwise, if something comes up later, if it doesn't suit your taste, wouldn't it be a waste?"

"This lady is right. The names of our dishes are not all based on the names of the dishes themselves. How about I introduce these three to you?" The waiter also nodded.

She didn't mean to look down upon her when she spoke, maybe it's because I've seen this kind of situation a lot, so I'd rather be more troublesome.

But Si Jinyan shook his head and smiled, "No need, I know what these three things are, you just place an order."

"Isn't it the first time for my sister to come here? Why do you seem to be quite familiar with the dishes here? As far as I know, in Fucheng, it seems that this is the only one who names the dishes like this." Ruan Maoer asked curiously.

The waiter was also worried about any changes. He stood by the side, hesitated, and didn't leave immediately, but the order was still placed.
