257 Little LAN is more than enough to be my teacher!
Although elder Xu was old, he was still in good spirits.
He walked into the garden with steady steps. When he saw Shi qinglan, his expression finally became much more kind.
“Teacher,” An mu smiled sweetly. I used to want to invite you to the capital to teach the piano, but I couldn’t even get you to come. Why are you here today? ”
Elder Xu had a deep understanding of the zither.
However, he had stayed in Ying city for a long time and was unwilling to move. He was even more unwilling to participate in the disputes of the wealthy families in the imperial capital. Therefore, these wealthy families had invited him to the imperial capital to teach the zither, but he had not been moved. If he really wanted to be a master and learn the zither, he had to come to Ying city to pay a visit.
His eyebrows twitched, and he glanced at an mu inexplicably. a student who gave up halfway is not qualified to call me teacher. Anyway, my coming to the capital has nothing to do with you.
Hearing this, an mu’s face instantly turned pale.
She gently pinched the corner of her dress. She didn’t expect elder Xu to have such a strange temper. He didn’t even want to leave her face in public!
However, she secretly thought that this did not matter ...
Even if he felt that it was too difficult to give up on the guqin, it was still better than Shi qinglan, who had never even touched the piano and guzheng before!
An mu comforted herself, but the next second ...
“LAN girl!” Elder Xu walked toward Shi qinglan with a smile.
He put his hands behind his back and looked at the girl with a kind expression. I made an exception today and specially flew to the capital to attend your family reunion dinner. No one else could invite me even if they wanted to!
Shi qinglan’s Red lips curved into a smile. thank you, elder Xu.
Elder Xu hurriedly waved his hands. no, LAN girl, don’t be polite with me. You can shorten my life then ... If you really want to thank me, why don’t you play a few more songs for me?”
Looking at the two people who were very familiar with each other’s interaction ...
An mu was a little stunned. dan ... Playing the zither?”
A look of surprise and confusion flashed across her eyes. She could not figure out how Shi qinglan knew him, and even more so, why would old master Shi suddenly mention zither to Shi qinglan!
An mu was slightly startled. Xu ... Old Mr. Xu, could it be that Shi qinglan was your student back in Ying city?”
He saw elder Xu chatting with Shi qinglan.
A few families that had hired elder Xu to be their children’s zither teacher couldn’t help but surround them.
Elder Xu raised his hand and touched his little stubble. a student? You’re saying that LAN is my student? How is that possible?”
An mu and the others were relieved when they heard that.
She knew it was impossible. Old Mr. Xu’s fee for his lessons was so high, and he had a strange temper and did not accept it from just anyone. Before Shi qinglan returned to the Shi Financial Group, although she was in a favorable position in Ying city, she was just an ordinary girl from the slums ...
There was no honor to be elder Xu’s student!
“Elder Xu, please come in.” Shi qinglan smiled sweetly as she looked at elder Xu and welcomed him in.
Shi Qing sized up these people indifferently from the side.
His dark eyes darkened a little. He waved his hand and called Ji Lin over, then whispered, “help me keep an eye on these people. If anyone dares to say anything bad about LAN ‘er, drive them out immediately.
“Alright,” he said. Ji Lin nodded slightly and went to do it.
Elder Xu did not bring Xu Cheng along this time. When he heard that the Shi financial magnate was going to hold a family recognition banquet for Shi qinglan, he shamelessly used his connections to get an invitation letter and flew to the capital alone ...
He had no interest in drinks or desserts. He was just trying to keep up appearances for Shi qinglan, so that the mediocre people in the imperial capital would not think that she could be looked down on just because she came from ye city.
Elder Xu strolled around the garden casually, not wanting to pay attention to the others, but there were countless people who took the initiative to curry favor with him.
old Mister Xu,. ‘ve long heard of your name ...
I heard that elder Xu is quite accomplished in the zither. My daughter has just turned three years old and would like to be your disciple!
my girl has also admired old Mr. Xu for a long time ...
Elder Xu couldn’t take in these compliments. He was too lazy to pay attention to them and pretended not to hear them.
Until someone asked, ” old Mr. Shi, could it be that the Shi financial magnate hired you as a teacher for their daughter? is that why you came to the capital and are still ignoring us? ”
The woman had just noticed the interaction between elder Xu and Shi qinglan. In addition to his indifference towards her at the moment, she naturally thought that he was trying to curry favor with the Shi family.
The woman said, ” I heard that the young lady of the Shi financial magnate doesn’t understand music theory. I’m afraid it’s impossible for her to learn such a difficult instrument as the guqin when she’s an adult, unlike our daughter ...
“Wait,” Elder Xu’s brows furrowed.
He slowly turned around to look at the woman, and a little puzzlement flashed in his weathered eyes. you said that girl LAN doesn’t understand music theory? ”
The woman was slightly startled. yes ... That’s right,”
That was what everyone had been discussing at the banquet just now. Moreover, miss an seemed to have asked about it, and the daughter of the Shi financial magnate had admitted to it. She had only heard about it through hearsay.
Elder Xu almost laughed out of anger at this long-tongued woman.
He put his hands behind his back and raised his voice to shout at the nobles, ” I heard ... Are you all talking about how Shi qinglan, the daughter of the Shi financial magnate, doesn’t understand music theory?” contemporary romance
Hearing this, the guests immediately looked at elder Xu.
Everyone looked at each other and did not know what old master Xu was up to. Was he going to expose his shortcomings in public? they could not help but want to watch a good show, and an mu even covered her mouth and laughed secretly when she saw it.
She strode over to elder Xu’s side and pretended to be kind as she reminded him, ” elder Xu, even if miss Shi doesn’t understand music theory, it’s not appropriate for you to undermine her in this situation, right? ”
the Shi financial magnate is one of the top rich and powerful families in the imperial capital. We don’t dare to talk about it casually, for fear of bringing disaster to our families ...
Hearing this, old Mr. Xu sneered angrily.
He strode steadily to the center of the crowd and looked sideways at Shi qinglan, who had a delicate smile on her red lips. He shook his head repeatedly.
Everyone thought it was a sign of regret or disdain.
However, elder Xu said, ” if little LAN doesn’t understand music at this level, I’m afraid that all the rich young ladies in the capital are deaf!
...
An mu was stunned, and she did not understand what he meant.
Even the others were confused. They carefully savored old Mr. Xu’s words, and their brains couldn’t quite wrap around it ...
The Empress heard him say sternly, ” I didn’t know that the rich and powerful circle in the capital has become so arrogant ... You think that our Grandmaster level guqin player doesn’t understand music?”
An mu’s face instantly turned pale, and she looked at elder Xu in disbelief. you ... What did you just say!”
Old Sir Xu continued to sneer.
His solemn eyes moved slightly as he swept his gaze over the people who were discussing Shi qinglan. little Lan’s guqin performance has long reached the Grandmaster level! She can even be considered my little teacher, more than enough to teach me!”
Oh, that’s right. The owner of the famous zither, Qing Xun, is the daughter of the Shi financial magnate who doesn’t know music.
Upon hearing this, the guests were in an uproar.
