Chapter 25 B-3

However, to Xiang Ning's surprise, Guo Yunhua's enthusiasm for teaching Sang Li was completely beyond Xiang Ning's expectations. Before the summer vacation, Xiang Ning called home and repeatedly mentioned the matter of teaching Sang Li during the summer vacation. Guo Yunhua thought for a while, and directly suggested: "Why don't we let her live in our house, a little girl's family doesn't even have any relatives here, it's too unsafe to stay in a hotel by herself." Xiang Ning opened his mouth wide and said nothing, as if he couldn't believe that his mother could be so open-minded.

Guo Yunhua heard his son's suspicion, and laughed: "What's the matter, I'm not a tiger, and I can still eat your little sister?" Xiang Ning hastily denied: "How can I, I know my mother has the best heart, but you really like her so much, Mom?" He finally couldn't help asking questions. Guo Yunhua smiled, and still did not forget to tease his son: "Isn't that the person you recommended? If I don't trust others, how can I not trust my son?" These words were meaningful, and Xiang Ning was a little horrified, wondering if mom had discovered something?

Probably hearing Xiang Ning's guilty conscience, Guo Yunhua coughed and added: "Of course, Sang Li's conditions are good, and he's also a good seedling." Xiang Ning laughed twice, and Guo Yunhua finally decided not to tease Xiang Ning anymore, but explained in a serious manner: "I'm serious, Sang Li's conditions are really good. He has a good voice, a good sense of music, and a good appearance. It's just for singing. And, just by looking at those eyes, you can tell that he is a good boy. Over the years, I have come into contact with too many students, many of whom are young, but have a lot of mind. A little contact can tell that there are too many things I want Although your mother is not in the officialdom like your father, but the people who come and go - snobbish, selfish, utilitarian, vain... What do you think I haven't seen? The Academy of Art originally It’s more like a small society than an ordinary university. I can only see Sang Li’s clean eyes from the eyes of the high school students who took the exam. It’s a pity that at least half of the good kids will see it sooner or later. mixed with other things."

She paused, and added: "Xiang Ning, I only hope that this girl, Sangli, can be consistent." This sustenance was too heavy, and Xiang Ning didn't know what to say for a while.After a long time, I murmured: "Mom, thank you, I didn't expect—" "Didn't expect what? Didn't expect me to be happy to see it come true?" Guo Yunhua smiled on the phone: "I trust my own son, and I also trust my son's vision. Anyway, it's a little genetic..." Xiang Ning finally laughed out loud, and that laughter was full of warm gratitude. Compared with Guo Yunhua's enlightenment, the biggest obstacle Xiang Ning encountered was actually Sang Yuecheng——that summer, Xiang Ning spent a lot of time to persuade Sang Yuecheng to bring Sang Li to the provincial capital to study. vocal music.

Xiang Ning’s explanation at the time was: Many graduates from the Art Academy went to become teachers after graduation, and the Art Academy also has a master’s degree granting point. If they study well, they can take the postgraduate entrance examination in the future and stay in the university to become teachers... Sang Yuecheng was obviously moved by the prospect of the future that seemed to be smooth sailing and serious.Although he really didn't have a good impression of the art school, but for the sake of the elegant profession of "university teacher", after repeated thinking, he approved Sang Li to follow Xiangning back to the provincial capital and use the summer vacation to study.In order to ensure the authenticity of Xiang Ning's identity, he also asked Nan Yang to call Xiang Ning's house and have a direct conversation with Guo Yunhua.

At that time, Xiang Ning complained to Nan Yang secretly: "I guess in the eyes of Sang Li's father, you are still considered a good citizen." Nan Yang smiled proudly: "Do you know why I study law? I was born with a righteous face." Xiang Ning and Sang Li vomit together. However, Xiang Ning was very frustrated: since he was a child, he was a good boy in the eyes of everyone, and he was also very upright, with a clear personality. How could he not be a good person in the eyes of Sangli's father? Seeing Sang Yuecheng questioning Xiang Ning's name, age, nationality, and home address with a sullen face, it was as if he was a human trafficker.

Fortunately, the trafficker was finally acquitted. In mid-July, Sang Li was allowed to go to the provincial capital with Xiang Ning, and stayed at Xiang Ning's home that night.Prior to this, Guo Yunhua had already tidied up the guest room and changed the bed sheets with light purple floral flowers on a white background, making it warm and pleasant. So, when Sangli got off the train, took a taxi with Xiang Ning all the way to the gate of the art academy, turned three more turns into the teacher's dormitory area, and finally entered the gate of Xiang Ning's house, what came to him was a girl who was more than his own. But also a warm "home" atmosphere.

That kind of beauty goes straight to the heart. Guo Yunhua is a woman who knows how to live. At that time, Xiang Haoran had already served as the secretary of the municipal party committee of his city, which was about 600 kilometers away from the provincial capital. He was very busy with work, so he could only go home once a month.And Xiang Ning was studying in another university, so most of the time, Guo Yunhua was the only one in this family.Although Xiang Ning was on summer vacation when Sang Li moved into Xiang Ning's house, there would be at least three people in the house, but the summer vacation will always end, and Sang Li really wanted to ask her if she was lonely on weekdays, but because she was embarrassed, she kept going. Did not ask the exit.

However, Sang Li discovered that Guo Yunhua, who lives alone, always arranges his life to the fullest. Every morning, she gets up at 7:30, cleans, waters the flowers, and feeds the fish.The flowers are jasmine, lanterns, and hibiscus, and the fish are ordinary red carps that are easy to raise.She walks around the room in a loose dressing gown, sometimes talking to fish in the water.During the labor process, the room would echo with Strauss, Dvořák, Tchaikovsky and others, and occasionally there would be "Backgammon" or "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon".These tunes are no strangers to Sang Li, because Chang Qing would also play them occasionally.But the difference is that Chang Qing regards music as a skill and a profession, while Guo Yunhua regards music as a hobby, a detail, and a necessity in life.

At half past eight, Guo Yunhua will have breakfast on time.Breakfast is very simple, oatmeal, an egg, a slice of ham, and sometimes an apple.Guo Yunhua said that breakfast should not only provide the energy the body needs, but also not burden the skin.She does not eat fried food, insists on drinking milk or honey water, and never stops.When Sang Li was at home, he had a simple breakfast, but now that he was supervised by Guo Yunhua to eat breakfast every day, he felt a little extravagantly happy, even a little unreal. After nine o'clock in the morning, students usually start to come to the door.Sang Li found that most of them were senior high school students, and occasionally a few were in second year of high school. There were no freshman students like Sang Li at all.Xiang Ning's explanation for this is "my mother is only responsible for raising the height, not for enlightenment." Sang Li heard it and angrily reprimanded her for accusing Sang and Huai.When some students came, Sang Li was studying culture in the study, and Xiang Ning reported himself as a tutor.He has always been a very patient teacher. Under his guidance, Sang Li's homework basically did not fall behind.

At 11:30 noon, Guo Yunhua started to prepare lunch.Her cooking skills are good, because she studied in Wuhan Conservatory of Music and Shanghai Conservatory of Music in her early years, she can cook a lot of southern dishes.They also often make some new dishes according to the recipes. Now that Xiang Ning and Sang Li are both at home, they are even more happy to use them as guinea pigs for testing dishes.Fortunately, most of the tastes are pretty much the same, and the two of them will always work hard to finish the meal, and Guo Yunhua is very happy to see people cheering on them. There will be a nap time after lunch, and Sang Li does not have the habit of taking a nap, so Guo Yunhua forces her to take a nap. The reason is that getting enough sleep is necessary for good skin and good energy.Xiang Ning listened to music and read books in the room, and when he couldn't stand it, he would stand up and remonstrate with his death, saying "Sang Li's skin is very good, and it's good if he doesn't take a nap", but Guo Yunhua directly pushed him back into the room, and his resistance failed.After a long time, Sang Li really got used to taking a one-hour nap at noon every day, and then went to study in the afternoon refreshed after the nap. In the afternoon, sometimes I learn singing, sometimes I learn solfeggio and music theory, and sometimes I learn cultural lessons.In the evening, Xiang Ning would occasionally take Sang Li to the night market on the street outside the school gate.He was used to holding her hand, and when he met an acquaintance occasionally, he introduced him, "This is my sister."Sang Li didn't think there was anything wrong with this, on the contrary, she always felt that the concept of "girlfriend" was a little strange to her, and the concept of "sister" came more leisurely. In short, during the summer vacation when he studied with Guo Yunhua, Sang Li finally understood what it meant to be "unforgettable". If she could, she really wished she could live here forever - away from her cold home, away from everything she hated. The farther the better.
