Chapter 67 Practicing the Piano

Mrs. Zheng raised her eyebrows: "Do you want to take advantage of Sister Qiao's birthday to have your mother bring your brother over to see Sister Lan?"

"I really can't hide my daughter-in-law's thoughts from you." Cui Wan was told what she was thinking, and she simply said: "My brother is good at everything, but he has read too much and is a little dull. My mother always loves him, and she always loves him.

I wanted to choose someone he wanted, so I kept delaying it."

Now that he has fallen in love with Ye Qinglan, he naturally wants Cui Yu to come and see it for himself. It would be best if he and Ye Qinglan look at each other, develop some feelings, and the marriage discussion will become a matter of course.

Mrs. Zheng smiled and nodded in agreement.

Let’s not mention it here for now, but let’s say that Ye Qinglan followed Ye Qingning to the piano room of Huancui Pavilion, and surprisingly found that there was Zhang Xin’s piano in the room.

Ye Qinglan's eyes lit up and she said happily: "Sixth Sister, is this the piano you specially gave me?"

A trace of complacency flashed in Ye Qingning's eyes, and he smiled proudly: "I specially asked Zhixia to find this in the warehouse of Luomeiyuan. Although it is not as good as the one my grandfather gave me, it is still a good piano!"

Ye Qinglan had already happily approached and touched the strings of the piano body fondly.

This joy was not entirely fake. She had never learned a musical instrument in her previous life, which she had always regretted. Now that she had the opportunity to practice the guqin, it was a pleasure.

Ye Qingning saw that her joy was beyond words, and he felt quite happy in his heart. For him, this was just a trivial matter, but he never expected that Ye Qinglan would be so happy for this little thing.

"Sixth sister, thank you. I like this piano so much." Ye Qinglan's clean little face was filled with a cheerful smile, and the whole piano room lit up.

Ye Qingning smiled reservedly: "As long as you like it. By the way, Mrs. Zeng will be here in a moment. I have to practice the piano for a while. You can do whatever you want."

Ye Qinglan nodded with a smile.

Ye Qingning sat down upright, pressed the strings lightly with both hands, and fiddled with them skillfully, and the sweet and melodious sound of the piano began to sound.

Ye Qinglan had never touched the guqin and didn't know where to start playing it. If she played randomly, she was afraid of disturbing Ye Qingning's playing of the qin. She simply sat aside and listened intently.

After a while, Zhixia came in with a woman in her thirties. This woman had an upper-middle-class appearance. She did not apply any makeup, and only used a gold hairpin to hold up her black hair. There was no decoration on her body. It was eye-catching.

It feels indescribably comfortable and natural.

This woman is naturally Mrs. Zeng.

Ye Qinglan quietly looked at Mrs. Zeng and secretly admired her in her heart.

Beauty ages easily. No matter how beautiful a woman is, her appearance will inevitably fade away one day. Only her temperament will become newer with the passage of time, exuding a lingering fragrance. Mrs. Zeng is such a woman, although she is not special.

Beautiful, but with a quiet charm of its own.

Ye Qingning immediately stood up to greet him. He smiled and called "Mr. Zeng."

Mrs. Zeng smiled and nodded, and her eyes naturally fell on Ye Qinglan. She was secretly surprised. She often went in and out of Changyuan Uncle's mansion, and was familiar with the ladies in the mansion. But this gentle and beautiful girl in front of her was very strange.

, never seen...

Ye Qinglan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Qinglan has met Mrs. Zeng."

Ye Qingning smiled leisurely and said: "Master Zeng, this is my cousin, ranked tenth."

Mrs. Zeng smiled slightly: "It turns out to be Miss Ten, I'm sorry." Ye Qingning doesn't like to be disturbed when practicing the piano. Therefore, few people come to this piano room. This Miss Ten suddenly appeared here, could it be?

Let’s learn piano together!

Before I could finish thinking about it, I heard Ye Qingning say: "From now on, Tenth Sister will practice piano with me, so I will trouble Master Zeng."

Madam Zeng responded with a faint smile.

She has always been responsible for teaching Ye Qingning's piano skills. Now that there is a newbie with no foundation, it will definitely be more troublesome to teach. But since Ye Qingning took the initiative to open his mouth, she could not refuse, so she had to accept it.

Mrs. Zeng first taught Ye Qingning a new piano piece and gave her fingering instructions. After Ye Qingning practiced it a few times, she nodded slightly and signaled Ye Qingning to continue practicing. Then, she had time to give instructions to Ye Qinglan.

During this period of time, Ye Qinglan stayed aside silently without making any noise. This knowledge and well-behavedness made Mrs. Zeng feel more favorable, and her attitude was much gentler than at the beginning: "I dare to ask Miss Ten, before

Have you ever come into contact with Guqin?"

Ye Qinglan shook her head honestly: "No, I have only heard Sixth Sister play the piano. Sixth Sister plays the piano very well."

Of course. Mrs. Zeng burst into laughter: "Miss Sixth has been learning the piano since she was six years old. She has outstanding talent. She practices hard for at least several hours every day, and her piano skills are naturally outstanding."

The implication is obvious, if you don't have the spirit to endure hardship, you'd better not learn this piano.

Ye Qinglan said without thinking: "Master, please don't worry, I will definitely learn and practice the piano seriously, and I will never complain." The look on his face was extremely serious.

Mrs. Zeng nodded secretly in her mind and began to teach Ye Qinglan to practice the piano.

Playing the piano is an elegant thing. It has many requirements for sitting, demeanor and appearance. It also requires the player to be calm and focused. Beginners should not practice difficult music. They should start with the simplest fingerings. After mastering the basic fingerings, they can

Let’s practice some simple piano music.

Mrs. Zeng spoke in a slow and slow manner, explaining the music theory in simple and profound terms. Ye Qinglan listened very attentively and carefully. Occasionally, if there was something she didn't understand, she would write it down first before talking about it.

Mrs. Zeng demonstrated several basic fingering techniques, and then let Ye Qinglan practice on her own.

Ye Qinglan took a deep breath, got rid of distracting thoughts, and straightened her waist. She pressed the strings with her left hand and plucked them with her right hand.

When you first start practicing fingering, it is naturally very boring. Repeating those few movements all the time, not to mention an underage girl, even an adult may not be able to bear it.

But Ye Qinglan kept her head down and practiced her fingering skills seriously, without showing any signs of impatience from beginning to end.

Madam Zeng watched from the side and couldn't help but secretly praise her. This tenth lady is very talented. She learned the fingering technique after just watching it a few times, and she was very serious and careful. Given time, her piano skills may not be inferior to those of the sixth lady.

Two hours flew by.

Ye Qingning has already achieved some success in piano skills, and there is no need to assign any additional homework. Mrs. Zeng individually assigned Ye Qinglan a piano practice task: "Practice for at least two hours every day, and memorize these fingering techniques by heart. Next

When the time comes, you can start practicing simple piano music."

Ye Qinglan responded respectfully. After sending Mrs. Zeng out, she showed a tired look and sighed with a grimace: "I'm so tired, my fingers are so sore."

Not only is it sore, but there is also some dull pain. Especially the ring finger of the left hand that presses the strings has become faintly red. I will probably need to apply a hot towel when I get back tonight to get better.

Ye Qingning teased: "I've just started practicing, are you tired now? You'll be tired for a long time in the future!"

Ye Qinglan sighed sincerely: "Sixth Sister, I am completely convinced by you now. You practice for several hours every day, how on earth do you survive?" With such perseverance, Ye Qingning is not without merits.

.

Ye Qingning smiled reservedly, but a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

As a noble daughter of a noble family, it is not enough to have outstanding looks. If you want to stand out among the many noble ladies in the capital, you must also have extraordinary talents. She has always been a very proud girl. Either she doesn't do something, or she has to do something.

do the best.

She began to learn the piano at the age of six. Apart from reading and practicing calligraphy, she spent almost all the rest of her time practicing the piano. When she was ten years old, she made some success in her piano skills. She became a big star at a flower viewing party, and from then on

With the reputation of a talented woman, outsiders only see her beauty, but no one knows how much effort she has put into it.

Ye Qinglan's praise was deeply felt in her heart.

Ye Qinglan glanced at Ye Qingning and said with a smile: "I will learn more from Sixth Sister in the future, even if I learn 10% or 20% of Sixth Sister's skills, it will be enough."

If these words were said by others, they would inevitably seem a bit disgusting. But Ye Qinglan was able to say flattering words in a serious and serious manner that made people believe it.

Ye Qingning finally couldn't help laughing and spat at her: "Look at your mouth, you will make me happy all day long."

Ye Qinglan winked playfully: "Of course, I'm still counting on you to give me another piano to move back to Hefengyuan!

Fortunately, she had the nerve to say it, and she became addicted to her love affair with food and music.

Ye Qingning burst into laughter and made a rare joke: "How about I give you this piano that I am used to."

Ye Qinglan responded solemnly: "How can you be so embarrassed? However, Sixth Sister is kind and generous. If I don't agree, it will make Sixth Sister feel cold. The younger sister will have to be respectful rather than obey."

Ye Qingning was so amused that she bent over and her bright face was no longer cold and arrogant, but became more easy-going and approachable.

Joking aside, when Ye Qinglan left, Ye Qingning actually ordered Zhixia to go to the warehouse to find a piano and send it to Hefeng Courtyard.

Zhixia was surprised at hearing such instructions at the beginning, but now he is not surprised. In just two days, he immediately took the order to the warehouse, found a brand new guqin, and ordered two women to carry it to Hefeng

hospital.

Along the way, Guiyuan couldn't hold back her excitement and chirped: "Miss, Miss Six is ​​really kind to you."

Ye Qinglan twitched the corners of her lips, and a faint smile flashed in her eyes.

Ye Qingning's so-called kindness to her also has prerequisites. First of all, she must stand behind Ye Qingning calmly and must not steal Ye Qingning's limelight. Secondly, she must follow Ye Qingning's wishes in everything. Thirdly, she must speak up.

She would like him. More importantly, she must not covet Ye Qingning's sweetheart in the slightest.

All in all, how many people can be Ye Qingning's friends?

Apart from her, there is probably no one else! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
