After lighting the incense, Master Yang appeared in the music room.
Mrs. Yang changed into a clean green skirt, put makeup on her face, and had a smile on her lips, looking gentle and kind. Just like usual.
The previous embarrassment disappeared without a trace.
"Xie Mingxi, you continue to practice piano music."
"Li Xiangru, why are you so uneasy today that you made three wrong notes in a row? You should avoid being distracted when playing the piano!"
"Yin Xiaoxiao, why are you looking here and there? How can you practice the flute well with such a restless mind?"
"...and Sixth Princess, please make your drumming sound a little lower, so as not to disturb the students in their practice."
Master Yang was more demanding than usual today. After going around in a circle, almost everyone was scolded and given instructions on techniques and fingerings.
The girls had no time to think anymore, so they immediately put away all the distracting thoughts in their minds and practiced seriously.
Time flies by.
The chimes rang, and Master Yang announced: "Today's music class is over. You can take a short break and then go to the dining hall."
All the girls should be together.
Then, Master Yang walked away with light steps.
The girls glanced at each other subconsciously.
Maybe what Xie Mingxi said is right.
During this half day, Master Yang attended class as seriously as usual. After class, he left immediately, unlike in the past where he would stay for a while to give guidance to students with poor pronunciation.
It can be seen that Master Yang did not want anyone to mention this matter.
…
"Xie Mingxi!" Li Xiangru suddenly shouted.
Xie Mingxi turned his head slightly: "What's the matter?"
Li Xiangru bit her lip hard: "You stay, I have something to say to you alone."
Lin frowned slightly and stood beside Xie Mingxi, refusing to leave. The sixth princess remained silent and stood on the other side of Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi looked at her friends comfortingly, laughed softly and said, "Sister Li has something to tell me. You go to the dining hall and wait for a while."
Lin Wei hesitated for a moment, then left.
The sixth princess did not move.
Xie Mingxi smiled and said: "My words and skills are better than Sister Li's. No matter whether we quarrel or fight, she is no match for me. What else does your Highness have to worry about?"
Li Xiangru: "..."
Hey, I'm still here fine, don't go too far!
After hearing this, the Sixth Princess felt relieved and finally turned around and left.
The girls left one by one, and the music room quickly became quiet.
"What do you have to say?" Xie Mingxi asked directly.
Li Xiangru took a deep breath and looked at Xie Mingxi intently: "Xie Mingxi! Just because I'm not as good as you for a while, doesn't mean I'll never be as good as you! Don't even think about overpowering me all the time!"
"I, Li Xiangru, formally issue a challenge to you! From today on, I will redouble my efforts and surpass you no matter which course I take!"
Every word is decisive! Every sentence is sonorous and powerful!
Xie Mingxi raised her eyebrows: "Are you sure you want to defeat me openly? Are you planning to use some destructive trick to plot against me?"
Li Xiangru's face turned red with humiliated anger, and his anger almost burst out: "Of course not!"
"It's okay if you don't." Xie Mingxi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I accepted your challenge. By the way, what are you going to lose to me?"
Li Xiangru: "..."
…
"Sister Xie, Li Xiangru has been glaring at you." Lin Weiwei leaned close to Xie Mingxi's ear and whispered in a low voice: "My eyes are about to burst into flames."
"What on earth did you just say? Why does she look at you like an enemy?"
Xie Mingxi looked innocent: "I don't know what happened. She probably thought I was deliberately humiliating her, but in fact, what I said was all the truth!"
Lin Wei thought about it for a while, and then he guessed it a bit, and said with a teasing smile: "Yes, yes, what you said is true."
However, not everyone can afford Xie Mingxi's "truth".
Especially the proud and arrogant Li Xiangru, I don’t know how angry she is! Tsk tsk!
The Sixth Princess glanced at Xie Mingxi and Li Xiangru, who were chatting happily with each other in whispers, and continued eating in silence.
The persona of "gloomy, withdrawn and doesn't like to talk"... is really a bit of a headache!
Tender shredded beef suddenly appeared in the bowl.
The sixth princess raised her head slightly, and Xie Mingxi's beautiful smile came into view: "Your Highness the Princess likes to eat beef the most. Yesterday, I specially asked the cook to make this stir-fried shredded beef. Your Highness will eat more."
The sixth princess felt warm in her heart.
When eating the day before yesterday, I ate two more bites of beef. Unexpectedly, the attentive Xie Mingxi noticed it. She even asked the cook to make stir-fried shredded beef.
Sure enough, it’s still best for yourself!
The sixth princess ate the shredded beef with relish.
Lin Weiwei flattened his mouth and whispered angrily: "Sister Xie, you only remember that Her Royal Highness loves to eat shredded beef. Why don't you remember that I also like to eat it?"
Xie Mingxi laughed dumbly, and immediately picked up a chopstick and put the shredded beef into Lin Weiwei's bowl: "Why don't you remember? It's just that the action was a little late."
Lin Weiwei happily ate the shredded beef, it was really tender and delicious!
The Sixth Princess glanced at Lin Weiwei.
Lin Weiwei's mood became more and more cheerful. After eating, she deliberately asked Xie Mingxi to pick up another chopstick of shredded beef. Under the unhappy eyes of the Sixth Princess, the food became even sweeter.
Xie Mingxi: "..."
Forget it! Just pretend you didn’t see it!
…
At this time, Master Yang was staying alone in the bedroom.
The master's dormitory is quite spacious, with beds, tables, chairs, screens, etc. Everything is complete. Master Yang is quite elegant. He picks a few flowers every day and puts them in a vase, making the room full of fragrance.
Today, Master Yang was not in such a mood. He sat blankly at the table and stared blankly at the empty vase.
This vase is not a valuable thing, it was a dowry when she got married. After they got married, the couple loved each other, and the husband, who was good at painting, specially painted a picture of a beauty on the vase.
The smiling woman holding flowers in the vase stood under the tree, her eyes shining with happiness.
At that time, her husband had not yet died of illness, and her unruly mother-in-law was not too unkind to her eldest daughter-in-law for the sake of her eldest son. Her daughter Jiang Ningxue was innocent and cute...
Why has it become like this now?
Tears that had been suppressed for half a day fell down one after another.
Master Yang's delicate shoulders kept shaking, and his cries were suppressed and painful.
why why?
Why is it that even though she has endured so much, the Jiang family is still not satisfied? Why does her daughter treat her with cold eyes even though she has been wronged in every possible way?
She just wanted to leave the Jiang family, want to be a wife at Lianchi Academy, and live a peaceful and comfortable life, and had no intention of remarrying. Why did the Jiang family refuse to let her go?
Button, button, button!
Master Yang, who was immersed in mourning, did not hear the knock on the door.
Button, button, button!
The person standing outside the door was obviously very patient and did not say anything to urge him. He only knocked gently on the door again.
After several repetitions, Master Yang finally heard the knock on the door, wiped his tears and opened the door with red eyes. (To be continued)
