Thirty-six final farewell(1/2)

The moonlight tonight is particularly white and bright.

The silver light was dotted, like a gentle girl, gently caressing the land in Guizhou.

This night is blurry.

Xishui Lake is sparkling, and the willows on the lakeside move with the wind, as if they are covered in silver clothes, like girls waiting to marry like flowers and jade.

The moonlight is as bright as jade, and through the shimmering lake water, a ray of light reflects on the hillside.

It was a three-story building with a lush courtyard in front of the building.

There is a window that emits light, blending with the moonlight outside the window, and the night wind becomes gentle at this time.

The sound of the piano was heard, and it was sonorous and powerful.

It was a girl, beautiful and flawless, her fingers danced on the keys.

"when!"

With a slight sound, her hand slowly lowered.

The music suddenly stopped.

She turned around and smiled sweetly.

Under the blurred light, she was like a midnight elf, and she was so charming with a smile.

"Teacher, how about it?" Chen Xi spoke, looking at a beautiful figure at the door.

"This song is much more mature than when you played yesterday!" Xu Qing asked, "I don't know what it is called!"

"Transforming the world..." Chen Xi said, "When the teacher has free time, he can help me change it, and there are still many flaws!"

"No need!"

Xu Qing waved his hand, "Every work is charming because of flaws. Who can understand the works that do not recognize the fireworks of the world? There is no resonance after listening to them! Just like life, it is not perfect, and only with flaws can people cherish it even more!"

"I understand!" Chen Xi nodded.

"I feel that what you played today is different from what you did yesterday?" Xu Qing asked. "This kind of music emphasizes the integration of the piano and the harmony of the piano. When playing, it should be slow and soft. How do you feel? You played it tonight and used a lot of force..."

"I originally used C tone, but now I use G tone..." Chen Xi said, "I felt a little touched when I heard Sister Xiaofang play Alice this morning, so I changed the way to play. I don't have to try it like this..."

"You have a good foundation, which is harmless..."

Xu Qing reminded, "It's best to be as good as music. You have this capital, but you have to remember that no matter what you learn in the future, you must lay a solid foundation, otherwise, it will be harmful and unhealthy!"

"I still like listening to the country music brought by the teacher!" Chen Xi said.

"You are suitable for listening to Scottish folk songs, simple, natural and moving!"

Xu Qing smiled and said, "Don't confuse the Scots and the British, it's different...

There are three ethnic groups in the Isle of Britain, Scots, Irish, and English... The English people pay attention to gentlemanly demeanor on the surface, but most of them are domineering, so the British music is very bold and wild, and the Scots are different, simple and kind, their country folk songs are very peaceful, they sound very comfortable, like the sound of nature... For example..."

"For example, that song Ride_on..." Chen Xi chuckled and stroked her hair, "I like it too!"

"By the way, how did you learn English?" Xu Qing asked.

"Old look..." Chen Xi's face turned red, "The teacher has been away for three years, and no one has taken me, so it's a bit abandoned! I tried to find some books published in the United States to read. I knew all the words, but I still couldn't understand them..."

"Your vocabulary and grammar are all very good!" Xu Qing said, "But remember one thing, when we learn a language, what is the core of speaking? It is not expression, but thinking logic!"

"Mind logic?" Chen Xi's eyes turned, and she looked at the teacher, and she was puzzled.

"When I first returned to China, I taught in Beijing for a while and I also taught English..."

Xu Qing recalled, "One day, a student came to ask me, and he said, "Teacher, I have accurate speaking, excellent grammar, and a large vocabulary. It's easy to read China Daily, even better than Beijing Evening News. Is this good in English?"

"So, I gave him a piece of news reported by the Wall Street Journal, China Daily, but he could hardly understand it. He was surprised and asked me why..."

"Why?" Chen Xi asked.

"Although China Daily is written in English, the Wall Street Journal is the authentic American thinking!" Xu Qing smiled, "Now, you understand what I mean!"

"Teacher, are you talking about..." Chen Xi thought, wasn't her situation the same as this student? She has accurate speaking, excellent grammar, and large vocabulary, but she can't understand it when reading real American books.

It turns out that logical thinking is the core of spoken language.

"So, if you want to learn English well, you must remember American English thinking!" Xu Qing said, "As long as you understand the way Americans think, you speak the same English as Americans!"

"Teacher, give an example!" Chen Xi asked with his eyes lit up.

"For example, an American friend came to your house as a guest and knocked on the door. When you opened the door, what would you say when you opened the door?" Xu Qing asked back.

"Welcome!" Chen Xi blurted out.

"No!" Xu Qing shook his head, "Americans will not say welcome to their friends. They are not that polite. Just let him in!"

"So..." Chen Xi suddenly realized.

The teacher’s example is very vivid, this is how Americans think.

"You were young before, and I didn't teach you these things because you wanted you to enrich your vocabulary and lay a solid foundation!" Xu Qing said, "There are no conditions in Daliangshan, and you have no way to communicate with others. But don't be afraid. Language and language are just to speak, which is considered language. Don't learn mute English, and don't care about other people's vision. If you want to learn well, you have to practice, and you have to speak boldly..."

"Look back, watch more American movies, don't have Chinese subtitles, and try to understand the characters' psychological activities. Over time, you will master the thinking logic and way of their speech..."

Xu Qing smiled bitterly, "This is slow and not systematic, but the locale is like this. There is no way, I can only do this. But you girl, Bingxue is smart. I believe you will learn well!"

"Thank you, teacher!" Chen Xi was surprised and suddenly realized.

"I have a lot of audio tapes at home. You can listen more often. Not only do you have to listen, but you have to follow them. After a long time, you will naturally know. Relax and don't treat it as a task. You should treat it as if you are talking normally!"

Xu Qing said, "The teacher is not around you, everything depends on you. In fact, no matter what you do, as long as you think about it, you will move forward. Success and failure are not important. You must try bravely and not be afraid of failure!"

"Chinese students are the easiest to fail among students in the world, because you are facing the cruelest exams. Just look at the admission rate announced by the Ministry of Education. From 40% to high school, six or seven million people failed, and from high school to university, nearly 40% failed, and nearly two million people failed, and the admission rate is still declining... Failure is everywhere, life is so desperate..."

Xu Qing continued, "What should we do at this time? Only by mustering up the courage and accepting failure can we welcome the future. Failure is not terrible, and being afraid of failure is truly terrible! Those who choose to give up from the beginning will not fail because they failed at the beginning! Only by looking for victory in failure and hope in despair can we see the dawn... Dreams are not thought, but what we have to do!"

Chen Xi was very quiet and kept listening.

The teacher's words were simply deafening and enlightened her.

She is very smart, but after all, she is too young and has shallow knowledge and many things are unclear. But after the teacher gave me some advice, she was able to get through many confused things at once.

Some people say that there are often horses that are thousands of miles apart, but there are no horses that are often there.

There is no doubt that Xu Qing is her mentor.

Not only did she open her eyes in terms of knowledge, but she also pointed out the direction for her on the road of life.

The latter is more important.

Whether it is study, work, or life, you must correct your attitude and accept and face it bravely. No matter whether the world is beautiful or bad, you must be brave and unyielding.

When she came to Ancheng, she gained so much. Whether it was the magical, heroic and domineering man Wu Banglong, the intellectual and elegant woman Chen Xiaofang, or the knowledgeable and talented mentor in front of her, they all had a profound impact on her, allowing her to further understand the world and more deeply, and thus understand herself.

The only drawback is that the arrogant back is just a glimpse.

She was not sure whether that he was the one mentioned by Sister Xiaofang and the teacher, the legendary boy.

However, she was not too sad.

It was a dream, and it could only be hidden in her heart.

As the teacher said, life is a kind of flaw, so that it will move.

She is content!

If, if you really have the fate, the person they mentioned was the one she dreamed of you, the back that flashed by in a hurry, then one day, they will meet each other.

Gains and losses follow the circumstances, and the mind does not increase or decrease.

Thinking of this, Chen Xi's heart gradually calmed down.

"It's getting late, you'll get ready and rest. There is hot water in your room. Every girl can't stay up late!" Xu Qing said, turning around and leaving.

"Dududu!" At this moment, Chen Xi's cell phone rang.

Xu Qing stopped because of this.

"Grandma?" Chen Xi was stunned when he opened the phone.

She didn't expect that Grandma Wang called.

Speaking of which, this mobile phone was given by Grandma Wang. Grandma also said that if she arrived in Ancheng, she would call back. However, when she arrived in Ancheng, there were too many things that happened, and Chen Xi actually forgot about it.

Thinking of her heart, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel ashamed. Her grandmother was worried about herself, but she actually forgot about her.

Chen Xi pressed the answer button.

"Girl Xi..." A vicissitudes of voice came from the other end of the phone, "How are you okay? Girl, why hasn't you been there for two days? Is it you, girl..."

"Grandma, it's me!" Chen Xi's voice choked. She couldn't hear it. Grandma's words were full of concerns, "I'm sorry, grandma, I forgot to call you back. I'm fine, at the teacher's house!"

"Hey, as long as you are safe, it doesn't matter!" sighed on the other end of the phone, "Is it fun over there?"

"It's very good, the air is good, the scenery is good, and in Ancheng, I know a big sister!" Chen Xi said.

"Girl, let me tell you something, don't be excited!"

Grandma Wang said dyingly, "Your dad went to Beichuan to see your aunt. Your mom was alone at home and was sick. You need to come back immediately!"

"What?" Chen Xi was shocked.
