304 Piano and Go

Yang Xiao’s ideal when he was a child was to become a world-class piano master.

She trained hard since childhood and won many awards, but because of her talent, her dream was not realized in the end.

Now he is thirty-six years old and has taught hundreds of outstanding students in the piano education industry, but among these students, there are no piano masters, even national-level ones.

This is not because her teaching level is not good, nor because her students do not work hard, but because the piano masters have too high requirements. Even though she and her students are very attentive, they have poor talent and luck and cannot become real masters.

However, her life is still very good, because she is a very famous top piano teacher, and the charging standard of 500 yuan per hour is still sufficient.

Yesterday, she took over a job of teaching piano at home during the day. She made an appointment to start at 10 a.m. She happened to be fine and arrived twenty minutes in advance.

When I arrived downstairs, I saw a truck, and two porters were carrying a piano.

"Which layer was sent to this piano?" Yang Xiao's heart moved and asked.

"The twelfth floor." said the porter.

"Is it Room 1204?" Yang Xiao asked.

"Yes, are you the owner?"

"No." Yang Xiao shook her head, but she felt a little unhappy. She, a top piano teacher, was actually invited to teach a newbie.

Judging from the fact that the piano has just been delivered to the door, this company is probably just getting involved in pianos. Now she mainly teaches piano players of certain standards, which are at the top level.

Of course, ordinary newcomers would not spend such a large price to invite a piano teacher like her to class. After all, piano classes in the basic enlightenment stage are relatively cheap.

After following the porter upstairs, Yang Xiao saw a beautiful young woman open the door and greet the porter in.

"You guys are half an hour late."

"There is a traffic jam on the road, sorry." The porter said with a smile.

"How long will it take to install this?"

"Soon, more than ten minutes."

"Hello, is this Dr. Sun Zhiyu's home?" Yang Xiao asked as he saw the young woman coming in.

"Hello, I am Sun Zhiyu's lover Lin Shiyu. Are you Teacher Yang?"

"Yes, I am." Yang Xiao nodded and saw the young woman say enthusiastically: "I am Sun Zhiyu's lover, we asked you to teach the piano."

"Oh, are you going to learn?" Yang Xiao smiled. For such a wealthy family, there are also people who invite her to teach, especially some self-proclaimed and elegant women, who have to learn piano to improve their style.

"It's my daughter who wants to learn it." Lin Shiyu said with a smile.

"How old is your daughter?" Yang Xiao asked lightly. She didn't want to teach children, especially in enlightenment classes, she was not good at it.

Because there is a difference between the fingers of children and adults, the keyboard position of the piano is also somewhat different. Yang Xiao is not very professional in this regard. When she heard that it was her child who was studying, she thought she would refuse to teach.

"Teacher Yang, come in and sit down. Although my child is young, she has much higher learning ability than adults."

"But the child is still a child after all." Yang Xiao looked at Lin Shiyu in front of him and guessed that her child might be at most going to elementary school. Now it should be during school. So there is a high possibility that he will teach a preschooler next.

I was very unhappy, but since I was here, she had to teach me and try it first.

"Teacher Yang, you drink water first. When the piano is ready, I will ask Xiaotian to come out."

"Thank you." Yang Xiao took the water cup and took a sip, but felt a little moved in his heart.

The biggest problem for these parents is that they are rushing to ask their children to find the best teacher. In fact, the best one is the best. Yang Xiao is very confident in her teaching specialization, but she knows that for those preschool children, she is not a good enlightenment teacher.

After sitting like this for a while, Lin Shiyu entered a room and came out alone.

Yang Xiao was a little unhappy. It was almost ten o'clock now. Is this student still sleeping in the house? If he has not gotten up yet, in this state, he still has to make noise and make noise. He then has to study while having breakfast. It can be imagined that this learning effect is basically zero.

He felt a little unhappy, so he showed it again. Yang Xiao stood up and said, "Ms. Lin, it's time for class soon. Can I see my students first?"

"Teacher Yang, you have a rest first. My daughter is playing chess and the game will end soon."

"Play chess?" Yang Xiao was slightly stunned, and then asked, "What kind of chess are you playing?"

“Go.”

"Go, does your daughter have a rank?" Yang Xiao knew that some of her students learned Go, and she learned some of her students' skills, calligraphy and painting, and a particularly outstanding child is Go five ranks. She has also paid attention to Go for a while.

Especially for a while, there was a sensation in artificial intelligence fighting Go masters. In the end, the Go master was defeated by artificial intelligence and was abused by artificial intelligence.

Any good kid who plays Go is still very good. With this idea, Yang Xiao dared not underestimate this kid.

"She has just started learning and hasn't participated in the competition yet." Lin Shiyu smiled.

"I'm just starting to learn." Yang Xiao sighed, and immediately realized that he was thinking too much. I'm afraid that this kindergarten kid would not want to go to the kindergarten, so her parents asked her for tutoring and then taught her how to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Although she had never taught such a child, she had heard from other teachers that she was the little princess and bully in her family. She could make the teacher so angry that she could smoke. She had to teach for a long time, but they couldn't learn anything at all.

Although he had such an unknown premonition in his heart, Yang Xiao still sat here and waited patiently.

Seeing that the time had reached ten o'clock, she finally spoke again: "Ms. Lin, it's time for class and the piano has not been installed yet. Let me talk to your daughter first."

"Okay, I'll go and take a look later." Lin Shiyu said and walked into Sun Xiaotian's house.

Two minutes later, Lin Shiyu came out alone again and said with a hint of apology: "Teacher Yang, she still needs five minutes. Anyway, the piano has not been installed yet, so wait a little longer."

"Okay, but I will still be discontinued on time." Yang Xiao's tone was already a little angry.

"Okay, don't worry about this, my daughter has a very good acceptance."

"Hope so."

At 10:50, the piano-dresser finally adjusted the piano and left. Sun Xiaotian also walked out of the house and looked at Yang Xiao with a hint of curiosity.

But at this moment, Yang Xiao was heartbroken. If she had already had an unknown premonition before seeing Sun Xiaotian, she was simply a little desperate now.

The child, who is less than one meter tall, looks like he is about three years old. At this age, he is simply a mess.

"Ms. Lin, I'm really sorry, your child is too young, I can't teach you." Yang Xiao looked at Sun Xiaotian's seemingly innocent big eyes. Although he had some good feelings, he was already planning to leave.

"Teacher Yang, don't worry about drawing a conclusion. Just chat with my daughter and you will know if she can learn it." Lin Shiyu had long guessed this situation. After all, she also heard from the teachers of early childhood education that children who are too young are not suitable for piano learning. After all, physical differences and acceptance ability make such children at most educate them. They must be at least over five years old, which is suitable for piano learning.

However, her daughter is an extraordinary person and is very interested in the piano, so it doesn't matter if she gives it a try.

"Teacher Yang, my daughter has completed her middle school courses by herself. She can communicate fluently with people in five languages, including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, English and French. Although she is less than three years old, she has more knowledge reserves than me." Lin Shiyu introduced with a smile: "Xiaotian, this is Teacher Yang, you can talk to her."

"Have your daughter taught herself a middle school course? She can speak five languages?" Yang Xiao widened her eyes. When she heard this introduction, she was shocked, and even her three views were shaken.

Although she had heard some legends about child prodigy and knew the extraordinary abilities of some of the chosen sons, she never thought that one day she would meet a monster genius who could teach middle school courses at the age of three and speak five languages.

"Hello, Teacher Yang, my name is Sun Xiaotian. I'm very happy to learn piano skills from you." Sun Xiaotian smiled slightly, and he naturally saw the disappointment when he first saw him and the shock after hearing his mother's introduction.

However, this is not surprising. Anyone will have such a strong sense of impact. Just think about what he would have when he was three years old, and he would feel a huge pressure after hearing this introduction. And the introduction just now was only part of the knowledge he learned.

A minute later, Yang Xiao seemed to have digested the terrible amount of information just now, and laughed dryly, saying, "Okay, since you are a prodigy, then I think it should be easy for me to teach."

"Then let's start." Sun Xiaotian nodded.

Yang Xiao sat in front of the piano, then turned around and said, "Because your fingers are too small, you should watch me first and experience the rhythm of playing the piano. If there is any problem, ask after I finish playing."

"Okay, Teacher Yang."

Yang Xiao calmed down. The piano was the most important thing in her life. She had pursued glory on the piano many times, but she had never succeeded.

But she also got unexpected happiness from the piano, and she can now educate the next generation based on her own understanding of the piano and earn a considerable income to support herself.

Therefore, the piano brought her a lot, and she loved the piano even more.

When her fingers fell on the keys, an inexplicable feeling came, making her suddenly forget everything around her and devote herself to playing. The extraordinary feeling made her completely forget that it was in someone else's home.

When the song stopped, he heard the applause. Yang Xiao came to his senses and looked at the person who was applauding. It was a pink and cute little girl with her seemingly innocent big eyes, which exuded a wise light.

"Xiaotian, how do you feel?" Yang Xiao smiled slightly. The feeling just now was not often. The very dedicated playing state made her feel that she was in a good state.

"You played well, better than most people, and you also felt very good during the playing process just now." Sun Xiaotian said with a smile.

"Have you learned anything from my playing?" Yang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly. The little girl's tone was too arrogant. Even though she could finish her middle school courses at the age of three, even if she could speak five languages, she was still a beginner in the piano. It was really not very pleasant to evaluate the teacher like this.

But she couldn't blame anything if such a genius prodigy said this.

"I didn't learn much from your playing, but instead found some problems." Sun Xiaotian said.

"What's the problem?" Yang Xiao's face changed slightly. While these words surprised her, they also made her face feel a little uncomfortable.

"The accuracy of your playing is still a little insufficient, and your rhythm is still somewhat wrong. Although you have poured your feelings into it, it's a pity that it's just your wishful thinking. It sounds like others, but it lacks a sense of resonance."

"Haha..." Yang Xiao's face was covered with black lines when he heard this comment. He looked at the girl who looked like a little devil in front of him, took a deep breath and said, "What do you mean is that I played badly just now?"

"Of course not. The level of your playing is far superior to that of ordinary people. Unfortunately, you do not have the accuracy of the machine and the rhythm control is not satisfactory. To put it bluntly, you play with no characteristics and lack the most essential understanding of the piano. Maybe you have played like this for decades, but you don't know your own shortcomings. In this way, it is impossible for you to become a pianist. At most, you are a piano maker." Sun Xiaotian said slowly...

But his words were like a vicious dagger that pierced into Yang Xiao's heart.

I originally wanted to use my superb piano skills to shock this prodigy girl, but I didn't expect that the other party's sarcastic remarks would make me feel ashamed.

"Teacher Yang, I'm sorry, our Xiaotian just speaks too directly. She is still young and doesn't know how to speak around the bush." ​​Lin Shiyu's final blow next to her gave Yang Xiao a 10,000-point heavy blow.

At this moment, Yang Xiao had the heart to strangle Sun Xiaotian to death, but she couldn't say much, let alone Lin Shiyu, the parent, was still on the side. As a qualified teacher, she must understand one thing. If the students question your teaching level, the best way is to let her come up and try it on her own. Only when she understands the gap will she understand.

"Okay, you have observed very well and meticulously. I just made a random shot. I didn't expect you to see so many problems. So you can try it."

"Teacher Yang, do you think my short fingers are suitable for playing the piano?" Sun Xiaotian asked.

"You have to try it or not before you know if it's right." Yang Xiao was amused. He was a little embarrassed by the other party just now, so he knew that the three-year-old child was not suitable for playing the piano at all, but he wanted her to try it, but now it seems that the other party didn't accept it at all.

"Okay, since Teacher Yang said that, I'll give it a try." Sun Xiaotian said, then walked to the piano and compared it with the piano keys. "Mom, give me a high bench and let me cushion."
