Capítulo 86: Chapter 85: Shui Shui's filial piety

Autor: Qian Feifei Tradução automática

Teacher Hu sat at the side. He had his own children, a large family, and benefits from his occupation. But he was tired of that kind of life. The prosperity of the capital covered that layer of darkness. In the capital, a family like Shuishui's would only be considered a third-rate small aristocratic family. He did not speak much, but he was worried that Shuishui would not be able to adapt to the life in the capital. It was fortunate that Shuishui had good abilities. At the very least, they would not let Shuishui be bullied in the capital.

He looked at Shuishui and saw that she had already picked up the erhu to practice. He thought that it was good she had a lot of self-control. He nodded his head in satisfaction, went forward, and gave Shuishui some pointers. He did not need to repeat himself when he taught basic information, because when Shuishui made a mistake, she would make sure she learned from it and would not make the same mistake again. Her ability to reflect on herself was also very strong.

"You are very good now. You can learn how to play more difficult songs. When the time comes, you can just practice harder. You are different from other children. Your self-control is very strong. In the future, I want to teach you more skills and other techniques. Actually, you don't have much of a problem now. You're very good at playing difficult songs. These are things that require emotion and dedication. You play well and it's very pleasing to the ear, but you don't really show emotion." Teacher Hu commented that Qian Shuishui's problem was her inability to display emotion when playing.

Shuishui listened attentively. "Teacher, I feel that I've already put my heart into it."

"No, you don't. You like the erhu, but the truth is that your heart isn't in it when you play. The most important thing about music is that the emotion is contained within it. When you draw, you need to show meaning in your drawings. You also need to be in the mood, which is the so-called immersive state. Of course, this isn't easy, but when you play music, you should pour your emotions into it. How about this—when you play, what images appear in your mind?" Elder Hu had no choice but to help Qian Shuishui analyze it.

Shuishui frowned and wondered what she thought about when she played. "Well, Teacher, the truth is that when I play, I don't think about anything. My mind is blank."

"Blank? You don't think about how to play?" Teacher Hu was a little puzzled.

"When I practice playing a song, I definitely memorize it. I practice it many times so it is ingrained in my memory. After I am completely familiar with the piece, I will be able to play it according to my feelings. If I forget it, music scores will appear in my mind. Under normal circumstances, I do not think about other things." Shuishui felt that she would focus on one thing. It did not matter if it was a relationship or not.

Teacher Hu roughly understood what was going on. "Have you ever been in a relationship?"

"I guess so." Shuishui was not sure if what she had experienced could be considered as being in a relationship.

"Forget it. You're still young. You don't need to rush these things. When you play, you can think about your family. You can think about your parents! When you get used to it, you might unknowingly be able to bring your own feelings into it." Teacher Hu felt that that would be the fastest way to learn how to pour emotions into the piece.

Shuishui understood a little and nodded her head. Her teacher had thought of ways for her to improve.

editor1 "Actually, Teacher doesn't approve of puppy love either. Falling in love when you are already in university would be best. You'll understand when the time comes, but Teacher doesn't want you to get hurt. When it comes to love, you must maintain your own principles, understand?" Women in modern times no longer loved themselves. Such women were rebellious, and Shuishui had decided she wouldn't be like them. Her body's previous owner had probably never been in love, so Shuishui wanted to gain the correct perspective on love.

"En, Teacher, I think so too. When two people are in love, even if they're in a passionate relationship, they have to have their own principles. And I'm not interested in such things right now. Teacher, don't worry. I'm not that kind of girl. I had experienced being sweet-talked by boys, and I didn't know what was true and real. If I really meet someone I like, I'll consider both our conditions. Many relationships end because of distorted reality. No matter how much love there is in a relationship, love and reality should be viewed objectively." Teacher Hu was surprised by Shuishui's words. She had expressed her views on love and was very objective about it.

Teacher Hu thought that she was mature and unlike any child her age. He had heard that Shuishui's family was quite complicated, so she had matured a little earlier. "It's good that you understand. Now, let's learn a relaxed style."

"Okay." Shuishui continued to practice.

Shuishui had lunch at Teacher Hu's house. Teacher Hu's helper had also prepared a sumptuous table of food. Shuishui and the other teachers ate light food and were not picky. The teachers did not know what Shuishui liked to eat. Teacher Hu had lost his appetite after eating a few mouthfuls. He noticed that Shuishui had ignored the plate of food in front of her and that she had picked up another plate of stir-fried beef with green pepper.

After a while, Teacher Hu felt a little guilty. Shuishui liked meat so much, yet they kept asking her to accompany them to eat light food. He thought they were unfair to Shuishui. When Shuishui was almost done eating the meat, she ate a few pieces of vegetables and then stopped eating.

Shuishui ate very contentedly. She felt that she needed to replenish her strength for that day, so she ate more meat. She was already used to eating at her teacher's house. Other than observing proper table manners, she did everything as she pleased.

After all, Shuishui was someone who exercised. Her appetite was bigger than that of an ordinary girl. However, she was only eight percent full.

When Teacher Hu found out that Shuishui's apartment had no water, he asked Shuishui to stay for dinner. Teacher Hu had asked the helper to make delicious food for dinner.

Shuishui unintentionally saw a wheelchair in the study. "Teacher, is this your wheelchair?"

"I'm old. My legs have been rheumatic recently. When it rains, my legs might hurt. It's easier to move when I'm in a wheelchair." He knew that he was already old, and it was natural for him to have a few minor ailments.

Shuishui retracted her gaze. She had thought of a gift she should give her teacher. During dinner, she excused herself and went to the bathroom to call her father. She asked her father to pick her up so they could go shopping that night. She remembered that Teacher Li mentioned having rheumatism as well.

Shuishui had earned money after she had decided to study under the guidance of these teachers. She had given them a few gifts to show her appreciation for they have taught her selflessly in drawing, playing the erhu, practicing calligraphy, and developing self-defense skills. Her four teachers have been very helpful and gracious to her. Shuishui soon had an idea of what she should do.
