Chapter 691 Extra: Li Xiangyi is No. 1 in the World (3)
Li Xiangxian was silent for a moment, "Xiangyi, your idea is very good, don't think about it next time."
Without waiting for Li Xiangyi to explain why, he immediately changed the subject: "Xiangyi, Daddy wrote a letter to Senior Qi today, and there will be a result in a few days, so you should be good during this period and don't run around, okay? Otherwise, you won't be able to become his disciple."
Li Xiangyi was not convinced and wanted to say that he was a very good boy, but he was afraid of really making his brother angry, so he had to nod obediently.
"Then, brother, can I go to play with my sister next door?"
Li Xiangxian held his brother's hand and asked in confusion: "Why do you want to go play with her?"
Li Xiangyi smiled and said, "Because my sister is beautiful."
Li Xiangxian was silent, wondering whether he should tell his parents that his younger brother had the potential to be a "lecher" at such a young age?
However, after taking a quick look at Li Xiangyi's three heads and thinking about his age, he gave up the idea.
Forget it, Xiangyi is still young, I will teach him slowly later.
Su Ci had no idea about the conversation between the two brothers. She was eating her delicious breakfast with relish.
If there is anything good about ancient times, it is that the food is purely natural, without any technology or hard work, and it tastes authentic. Unlike modern times, the meat has no meat taste and the vegetables have excessive pesticides.
After she finished her meal, the teacher started the class.
Today Su Ci is going to learn the guqin.
However, she has no talent in playing the piano. The sounds she makes are either "bangbangbang..." or "dengdengdeng...", which sound like noise.
Unfortunately, after practicing for a whole morning, Su Ci was still unable to play a simple tune completely.
The teacher rubbed his battered ears, took out the earplugs, and said with despair: "Su Ci, if you don't like someone in the future, just play the piano for him/her."
Her piano playing skills are almost comparable to that of the Six-Fingered Demon.
The sound attacks of both of them can be fatal, but the Six-Fingered Demon relies on internal strength, while Su Ci relies on noise.
Su Ci unconvincedly defended himself, "I'm a beginner, isn't it normal that I can't play well? And the simple musical notations I've been exposed to before are Doremi, Fasuo, so it's normal that I can't understand Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu. I just need to practice more and it will be fine."
The teacher held Su Ci's hand and said sincerely: "Ci, you have to understand one thing, nothing is difficult in the world as long as you are willing to give up. With your overly practical mind, it is better to give up."
Su Ci was silent.
After a while, she said faintly: "Teacher, are you calling me stupid?"
How is she stupid? After all, she graduated from a 985 university and successfully landed a job.
The teacher gave Su Ci a look and asked her to experience it herself.
Su Ci: ...
Su Ci could only silently cross the guqin off the list of things he needed to learn.
She muttered, "Why don't I have Mary Sue's talent?"
Su Ci was practicing the piano to death here, and Li Xiangyi next door was not much better.
In order to prevent his brother from doing anything dangerous again, Li Xiangxian was really worried.
He took out the Thousand Character Classic and taught Li Xiangyi to read it word by word. When he had taught him almost everything, he began to teach him how to write.
At first, Li Xiangyi was able to obey well, but after a while, he could no longer sit still. It felt like there were needles under his butt, and he kept moving around.
Seeing this, Li Xiangxian sighed, asked the servant to send Li Xiangyi to Sun Ya, and continued to complete his homework.
Li Xiangyi walked out of the study, feeling as happy as a bird that had broken free from its cage.
When he got to his mother, he started chattering about what he had learned that day and even recited a passage from the Thousand Character Classic on the spot.
Then, like a proud little peacock, he waited for Sun Ya to praise him.
After Sun Ya praised Li Xiangyi very politely, he began to pester his mother to take him to play with Su Ci next door.
Sun Ya was puzzled. When did her youngest son become so fond of making friends?
She had discovered long ago that Li Xiangyi didn't like playing with children of the same age, and only liked to follow his brother. She just thought they were too stupid and couldn't play together.
Sun Ya did not force him to do so, but only warned Li Xiangyi not to call others stupid in front of them, as this was very impolite.
Sun Ya: "Why do you suddenly want to go play with the girl next door?"
Li Xiangyi lay in the arms of his mother Xiangxiang and said as a matter of course: "Because Sister Su is powerful, she knows martial arts, and I want to learn. She is beautiful, and I like her."
Sun Ya understood that the little guy Mu Qiangjia liked good-looking people.
She couldn't help but reflect in her heart, it seemed that no one in her family made friends based on appearance, right?
Moreover, he only knows how to play with pretty girls at such a young age. What will happen when he grows up?
She doesn't want her little son to become a playboy when he grows up.
However, looking at Li Xiangyi's clear and ignorant eyes, she felt that she was overthinking.
Li Xiangyi also didn't understand why his mother didn't say anything and kept staring at him.
He moved his body uncomfortably and asked Sun Ya in confusion: "Mother, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with me?"
Sun Ya touched Li Xiangyi's little head and said, "Xiangyi, when we make friends, we can't just look at the face, we also need to consider the other person's character. If the character is not good, no matter how good-looking he is, we can't be friends with him. Do you understand?"
Li Xiangyi scratched his face and looked at his mother blankly: "But, at first sight, I don't know what kind of person he is. I only know whether he is good-looking or not. What should I do?"
Sun Ya smiled slightly, holding her little son and slowly teaching him: "Mother can only tell you what is good and what is bad, and tell you what kind of people can be regarded as good friends and what kind of people cannot be friends with.
As for what kind of people you meet in the future, and whether you want to become friends with them, it is up to us to decide for ourselves.”
Sun Ya said a lot on this issue. She did not expect Li Xiangyi to learn anything in one go. She just wanted to plant seeds in the little child's heart and wait for the seeds to sprout, grow and bloom, and finally bear delicious fruits.
With his attention diverted, Li Xiangyi studied seriously and no longer made a fuss about going to play with the little sister.
……
In the afternoon, Su Ci was learning calligraphy with his teacher when he heard someone knocking on the door.
The teacher got up to open the door, and came back a few moments later with a visiting card in his hand.
Su Ci asked curiously, "Is it the teacher's friend who is coming to our house?"
She knew very little about this teacher who had taught her for a while. She only knew that her name was Su Qianxue, that she was the golden finger arranged for her by Bai Wuchang, and that she was also the big boss of the fast-travel department who was on vacation in this world. She was very capable, but she was not very clear about other things.
Su Qianxue shook her head, put the post aside, picked up the book and continued reading.
She said casually, "It's a post from Mrs. Li next door. She plans to bring her children to visit us tomorrow."
Su Ci said "Oh", stopped paying attention to it, and concentrated on practicing the characters in his hand.
She had learned calligraphy when she was a child, and had learned all kinds of calligraphy styles, including Ou style, Yan style, running script, regular script, and official script. So practicing calligraphy was not difficult for her now, and she completed today's task in half an hour.
Su Qianxue took it and glanced at it, circled the qualified ones, sent the unqualified ones back, and asked Su Ci to rewrite them.
She looked at the words that needed to be rewritten and her face fell, "Teacher, my handwriting shouldn't be this bad, right?"
There are only a few words circled, and the pass rate is less than 10%. Isn’t that too discouraging?
Su Qianxue laughed and said, "They say that a person's handwriting reflects his character. I thought you weren't ugly, so this saying is not always true."
She randomly pointed at a few words: "These few, the writing is weak, the words are light and fluttering. There is too much ink in these places, and the transitions in these places are not smooth enough..."
After pointing out the problems one by one, Su Qianxue patted Su Ci on the shoulder and said, "Little friend, you still have a lot to learn."
Su Ci sighed and rewrote it honestly.
Having a big shot as a master can be very stressful sometimes.
