It was also Saturday, Yun Miao and her sister arrived at the school at 9 a.m. Today, they were just members of the choir. They met and communicated with each other. The rehearsal may have to wait until tomorrow.

Due to the break today, some students and parents also came with them, and they sat in the auditorium to watch the row. Among them was Old Man Yun.

He sat in an inconspicuous corner, and today he had nothing to do, so he simply sent his grandchildren to school.

After Xu Ran and the other two teachers arrived, the sound of the students playing in the auditorium and the parents chatting became less.

Xu Ran walked up to the rostrum, turned on the microphone, tried the audition, and said:

"Dear students and parents, please be quiet. Today is the time for the choir members to meet and meet. Members should learn from each other and communicate with each other in the future. From tomorrow on, we will start formally rehearsing the program."

After saying that, he whispered to communicate with the other two teachers and left. When he left, he called Yun Miao and his sister away.

Old man Yun took his child and followed Xu Ran out of the auditorium.

Xu Ran said to Old Man Yun, "Hello, Mr. Yun, I am Shui Yin's senior sister. My name is Xu Ran, and I am Xu Yanqing's adopted daughter."

"Oh, it's you. I heard from Shuiyin that the child will be handed over to you. If nothing happens, I'll go back first."

Xu Ran nodded.

Old Man Yun gave a few more words to his two children and left.

Seeing that Mr. Yun had already left, Xu Ran said to the brother and sister: "Let's go too, go see your Grandma Xu."

Xu Ran drove the car and took two children back home.

The second floor has a window open. The capital in March has begun to smell the spring. The breeze is gentle, the sun is shining, and the warm temperature is warm. The old principal is practicing the violin. The beautiful notes float in the air, allowing pedestrians on the road to stop and listen.

This is a spiritual enjoyment.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, it is also a beautiful scenery on earth.

This is the residential area of ​​the Conservatory of Music teachers. People who live around here can hear the sound of the violin almost every day.

Neighbors also know who played the strings.

Today's notes are particularly cheerful. People who listen to them think that the master has something happy today, and the floating notes are so pleasant and wonderful.

Yun Miao did not disturb this beautiful scene, and stood in the courtyard and listened quietly.

When the last note fell, Yun Miao yelled at the window upstairs, "Grandma Xu, we are here."

Xu Yanqing on the second floor just took off the violin from her lower jaw and shoulders when she heard Yun Miao's voice. She poked her head out of the window and saw the brother and sister standing in the yard, waving to her with a smile.

"Come up."

Xu Yanqing waved to the brother and sister and said.

Xu Ran took his brother and sister to the second floor.

When Xu Yanqing saw the three of them coming up, she asked her daughter to get the fruit. She stepped forward and held the brother and sister's hands, pulled them to the sofa and sat down together.

"From now on, you two come here two days a week. I will teach you myself and practice more at home. Do you know?"

Xu Yanqing began to remind them to them, and she believed that with the intelligence of these two children, the learning speed should be very fast.

Yun Miao and his sister nodded obediently.

"Come on, eat fruit first."

When the old principal saw his daughter coming out with a fruit plate, he brought an apple each.

Yaya held the apple in both hands and took a hard bite. The big apple was big and sweet, and sweet juice flowed down the corner of her mouth.

Xu Yanqing turned around with one hand

Touching the little girl's face, she helped Yaya wipe off the apple juice from the corner of her mouth with her other hand, her eyes full of smiles and kindness.

She stood up and walked towards her bedroom. It took not long to take out two piano boxes, one black and the other white, and put them on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

With a bang, the old principal opened the white piano box. A white violin and a piano bow were placed quietly inside. She took out the violin, Yun Miao put down the apple in his hand and stared at the piano in Xu Yanqing's hand. Judging from his eyes, this piano was of great value.

The old principal smiled and said to Yun Miao, "This piano was used by me when I was young. I often take care of it. Your Aunt Xu Ran often uses it to practice the piano, just use it. Let's try it."

After saying that, he handed him the piano in his hand, and Yun Miao took it with both hands.

The old principal said instructed by: "The finger root of the index finger of the left hand contacts the right side of the neck, and the thumb contacts the left side of the neck. The palm of the left hand bent inwardly into a semi-organic shape. The fingers are bent, the fingertips are suspended in the air, and are arranged in a straight line corresponding to the strings. The left elbow is perpendicular to the ground."

While speaking, he also started to provide guidance and taught Yun Miao the correct posture of holding the piano step by step.

"Each finger should be fixed and not slide by the next finger."

"Yes, that's it." Xu Yanqing said, his hands keeping his hands correcting Yun Miao's mistakes.

"The thumb adjusts the position according to the different strings, 1, 2, 3, and 4 strings, and the thumb turns from the left side of the neck to the bottom of the neck. The left arm moves from the vertical ground to the body in turn."

"3,4 fingers will become soft and weak when you first start practicing. Remember not to curl up in your palms, keep them above the strings and be ready to press your fingers at any time."

Xu Yanqing's careful professor Yun Miao and Yaya were also watching the details.

When Yun Miao was able to master the correct posture and how to hold the bow, Xu Yanqing wiped rosin on the bow hair again.

Rosin is used to increase the friction between the bow hair and the strings. Without the rosin, the smooth bow hair will certainly not sound on the strings!

He also said to Yun Miao and his sister:

"The most difficult part of using bows is the unity of muscle tension and joint relaxation. The more beginners want to control the bow, the more they feel that they can't control it. They often get too nervous and cause various problems in the bow movement, such as not walking straight, discontinuous bow down, etc. "

She opened another piano box, a rich brown color, with a soft and transparent texture as soft as velvet.

The price of these two violins, haha...

Yaya doesn't like this bright brown color and asks to change it with her brother.

Yun Miao agreed. This brown piano is much better than the white one. Yaya just distinguishes it simply from the color. Yun Miao doesn't understand the violin, but judging from his experience and perspective, the value of the piano in Yun Miao's hand is probably a sky-high price.

"Grandma Xu, these two pianos are too expensive. We can just use ordinary pianos to practice. Looking back, my mother and I went to the piano shop to buy two of them." Yun Miao didn't want these two pianos to hit each other.

Xu Yanqing waved his hand and said, "It's just for people to use. Don't care about its economic value. Pay attention to its sound quality and sound. This is the key point."

A simple lesson is just to let the two children understand it first.

Then, Xu Yanqing began systematic basic teaching, sight, singing, practicing, and ears.

Visual singing and ear training are used to cultivate musical listening ability and score reading ability through visual singing practice and listening training, so as to master the correct pitch, rhythm and basic musical visual singing ability. In visual singing practice, the notes of the musical score should be used to sing out the tone skillfully and accurately through vision and use the singing name. In addition to mastering the knowledge and skills of the score, having pitch and rhythm, this ability is also

Must have the ability to control the vocal organs.

Professor Xu Yanqing spent two hours in the morning, and the four of them had dinner together at noon. The meal was made by Xu Ran. After lunch, the old and the two sat together and chatted. Xu Ran said hello, left home, went to the hospital, and visited his son.

At about 3:30 pm, the two children studied for another two hours. Shuiyin drove to Principal Xu's house, and she was here to pick up the children.

After four hours of study a day, Yun Miao and his sister benefited a lot, and Yun Miao truly knew what the "master" level is.

Seeing Shuiyin coming to pick up the child, Xu Yanqing stopped teaching and said to the brother and sister: "Assign you homework to practice, you only need to practice according to my requirements when you go back."

"Teacher, please trouble you." Seeing that the old principal stopped teaching, Shuiyin stepped forward to thank him.

"It's okay, I'm bored at home anyway. I'm very happy to have two little guys with me." After that, I asked the two children to pack up.

When Shui Yin saw the violin in her children's hands, she was shocked. She knew these two violins.

There are five pianos in Xu Yanqing's family, two of which are relics of Xu Ran's parents. They are usually taken out to wipe and maintain them. One is the piano she uses herself, which is also used when she practices the piano every morning. The remaining two pianos are the two pianos in Yun Miao and Yaya's hands.

The white one in Yaya's hand was given to her by a friend of Xu Yanqing when she was 30 years old. The world-famous Amatis violin was usually bought and collected after she was collected.

The violin in Yun Miao's hand is even more amazing. It is a famous piano made by Stradivario, the godfather of Italian violin making, in the 17th century, worth more than one million.

These two pianos were given to their children like this, how could they not surprise Shuiyin?

Shui Yin wanted to refuse, so Xu Yanqing said to her: "It's just two pianos, don't care about the price. I just want to find a good home for them. I can't stay by my side forever."

Shuiyin still refused, so the old principal smiled and said to the two children: "Okay, that's all for today. If you go back, practice more. How can your mother do it? Ask your mother for the time being if you don't know."

After saying that, he turned around and returned to his bedroom, where only three of them, mother and son were left in the living room.

Shui Yin had no choice but to take the child away.

Xu Yanqing watched Shui Yin drive away from the bedroom windowsill, smiled and muttered to herself. She couldn't hear what she was saying.

If Yun Miao heard her, she would be scared to death.

After arriving at home, Shui Yin went to prepare supper and the brother and sister went to practice the piano. It was also from this day that the sound of practicing the violin came from the Yun family every day.

From then on Saturdays and Sundays, Shuiyin would take her brother and sister to rehearse at the school choir in the morning and study violin at Xu Yanqing's house in the afternoon.

Until Xu Yanqing passed away two years later.

After Xu Yanqing passed away, Xu Ran gave Yun Miao a key, a safe key in the bank. Xu Ran said that it was left to him by his mother. Only Yun Miao knew the password.

Yun Miao could not guess the password, so he didn't look at what it was. It was not until Yun Miao accidentally remembered a sentence from Xu Yanqing when he was in the United States that he knew the password. After returning to China, he went to the bank and took out what Xu Yanqing left to Yun Miao.

It's a diary.

Yun Miao also knew why Xu Yanqing was so nice to the brother and sister.

Especially Yun Miao.

This is their secret, and it was not revealed by Xu Yanqing when he died.
