Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 55 55. Mapo Tofu and Rice
Li An came back just in time for Ji Yang to go downstairs, and the family of three sent him to the door.

He was supposed to say goodbye and leave, but before leaving the door, he turned around and looked at the couple and said, "Our school will have a small teacher skills test on the second floor of the Huayang Theater tomorrow night. If you have time, you can take your children there." Take a look, there are teachers who graduated from our domestic conservatory, and there are also teachers who have returned from studying in Germany."

Having money is willful.

On the way home, Li An was thinking that if his family could have one tenth of the conditions of Ji Yang's family, he estimated that he had already graduated with a master's degree.

Going abroad, how many blood and tears of art students are contained in these three words.

Make money.

After a round of heavy rainfall, Rongcheng has completely entered the dog days.

Ang Lee felt like walking into a big steamer again when he got home.

Eighty thousand stretched out lying on the floor of the living room, looking listless, it seemed that he was suffocated by the heat.

"Come take a shower."

Li An took off his clothes and trousers.

Eighty thousand struggled and was dragged into the bathroom.

"Meow-"

"Meow-"

"Meow-"

Three in the morning.

"Are you hot at [-]?"

Isn't this nonsense, [-] tongues are drooping on the chin, and they don't want to talk to Li An at all.

So Li An decided to buy a second-hand air conditioner and install it in the bedroom after two days of busy work.

Otherwise, this day can't be passed.

July 7th is definitely a big day for Yudong Campus.

Tonight, the eight teachers will meet their colleagues with the piano, and they will be better than each other.

Usually, teachers in training institutions seldom mention who is superior and who is inferior, and everyone basically knows it well.

But this time is different, who is a real mule and who is a real horse, as long as you dare to go on stage, you can tell at a glance.

Very exciting.

Early in the morning, half of the teachers who had no classes left the campus to go to the Huayang Theater to help with logistics.

But how can there be so much work? Qin Yong had arranged for the concert hall stage last night with professionals.

So most people are going to join in the fun.

And it is said that there is still a box lunch at noon.

For Chen Xuan, today is also a big day.

Today is the full three months since she came to Yudong, and she has become a regular.

When returning to the office after class at noon, Chen Xuan saw a bouquet of flowers on her desk.

Surprised, he walked over to pick up the bouquet, and the small card on it read:

'Welcome to join our big family - Yudong Teaching Department'

Immediately swept away the tiredness, happily put away the card, and placed the bouquet on the left window sill.

"It's too picky."

Wang Panpan put down his phone and complained for Chen Xuan, "If you become a full-time employee, you will only be given a bunch of flowers."

Xu Hongxin also put down his phone: "Be content, we didn't even have a bouquet of flowers when your cousin wasn't here."

Ma Tao also put down his cell phone, and suggested, "Let's go rub it at noon, and celebrate it for Sister Xuan."

This proposal was immediately responded by the other two.

It's just that Chen Xuan still has a class at 1:[-] noon, so he can only give up.

"I'll treat everyone to takeout."

Not wanting to spoil everyone's interest, Chen Xuan offered, "What do you want to eat?"

After some discussion among the four people, they agreed to order a Sichuan dish.

Wang Panpan wants to eat twice-cooked pork, Ma Tao wants to eat shredded potatoes, Xu Hongxin wants to eat fried bacon with garlic sprouts, and Chen Xuan wants to eat mapo tofu.

"What about Brother An?"

After Xu Hongxin asked, several people realized that they hadn't seen Li An all morning, and there was no movement in classroom three.

"Brother An, did you go to the concert hall to eat lunch?"

Ma Tao's words are not level, but it is very likely to be a high probability event.

Xu Hongxin called Li An, but there was a ringing in the drawer of Li An's desk.

"I didn't take the phone." Wang Panpan spread his hands.

Chen Xuan knew that Li An only kept his mobile phone in the office when he was in the classroom, so he decided to go to classroom No. [-] to have a look.

It's just a meal, everyone participates, it doesn't seem good without him.

Besides, there was nothing between the two of them.

Thinking of this, she came to the door of Li An's classroom.

Twice lightly.

No movement.

"Li An."

She tapped twice more.

There was still no movement inside.

What about people?

Chen Xuan immediately thought that Li An was not there.

But then she wondered if Li An heard it but didn't want to talk to her.

The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I felt, so I reached out and held the doorknob.

She only opened it for a look, and if Li An wasn't there, she would immediately close the door and leave.

If Li An was here, she wouldn't be able to think so much, her mind turned hot and her wrist lightly turned.

The door opened with a click.

Through the crack of the door, Li An was sleeping on the piano, and she was inexplicably relieved.

Looking to the left, he glanced at the leftover bread in Li An's hand, and felt a little distressed.

Can't you have a good meal?

After a moment of hesitation, she still decided not to wake up the other party for the time being.

Back in the office, she placed an order for four people, and ordered a boiled sliced ​​pork for Li An.

Xu Hongxin and Ma Tao only ordered a portion of rice, while she and Wang Panpan did not order any staple food.

So she ordered four more servings of rice.

Four or ten minutes later, the food was delivered, Xu Hongxin went to call Li An, when the two came back, Li An looked at a table of delicious food and rubbed his eyes.

In the corridor, Xu Hongxin only told him that Chen Xuan had turned to invite everyone to eat takeaway, but he didn't know that Chen Xuan had called him before.

I thought he would eat it if I called him, we are still good colleagues.

And rice is always innocent.

The two sat down, and Ma Tao and Wang Panpan had already started eating.

He looked at the mapo tofu and praised:
"This is good."

Chen Xuan muttered in a low voice: "Eat quickly."

This is the first conversation between the two in the past three days, if this counts as a conversation.

Chen Xuan thinks it counts.

Li An has already picked up the rice.

Eat and sleep.

Li An took the initiative to help clean up the trash on the dinner plate and returned to the piano room to continue to pick up the music score and read it.

It is his habit not to do a lot of practice before going on stage.

But you have to read the score.

Empty your mind and watch the content to be played from beginning to end, over and over again, and then go directly to the stage.

Tonight's stage is different from competitions or other performances. The repertoire is drawn randomly.

This also means that Ang Lee needs to watch 17 works.

This workload is really not small. When he held the graduation concert, he only prepared 5 works for the stage.

So this morning when he came to the classroom, he held the sheet music and read it as soon as he came.

At the same time, he is also considering which works he can recite in the night.

Although the assessment rules did not state that there would be extra points for memorizing scores, memorizing score books was a bonus item.

There is also the question of repertoire combinations.

In the rules, it is clear that the two songs will be performed consecutively, and there is no requirement for the order.

In this way, you can choose a suitable one among the two works as the opening.

Ang Lee has participated in many competitions. Although it is not a big competition, he still has rich experience in piano stage performances.

The first piece to be played, is very important.
