C9 Happy Family

The two of them returned to the zither shop to retrieve their luggage. Afterwards, they discussed with Yu Guannan the time of the second day before going to their relatives.

Qin Fengge hailed a taxi, stuffed her luggage into the trunk and told the driver the address. After about half an hour, the taxi stopped in front of a small district. The driver turned around and politely said, "This district is off-limits to taxis, so I can only send them here."

Qin Fengge was slightly excited. It had been many years since she last saw her uncle. She wondered what his current appearance was, and whether he still recognized her nephew.

Qin Fengge's uncle, Qi Jun, received a call from his sister Qi Fang an hour ago. The latter asked if Qin Fengge had arrived. Qi Jun also felt that something was not right. He thought to himself, based on the time of the day, they should have arrived before lunch. Why had they not arrived yet? Did something happen on the way?

Although he had a mobile phone and pager during that time, with Qin Fengge's current financial situation, she wouldn't have had those communication tools. Unable to contact Qin Fengge herself, Qi Jun had no other choice but to pace back and forth downstairs.

When Qin Fengge appeared in Qi Jun's line of sight carrying his luggage, he was finally relieved. He happily looked at the now grown up Qin Fengge and did not forget to reprimand her with an elder's voice. Qin Fengge casually told a lie, saying that the highway was blocked, so they arrived a few hours late. Qi Jun thought it was true and hurriedly brought Qin Fengge upstairs. He then called his home to report that he was safe.

Qi Jun told Zhang Lin, Qin Fengge's aunt, to go to the kitchen to make some food, which Qin Fengge said she had already eaten on the way. Qi Jun said, "Then let's drink some water and have some snacks." He then took out cola, orange juice, fruit, candy and four or five snacks from under the tea table, which made Qin Fengge a bit embarrassed.

The last time Qin Fengge had seen her uncle and aunt was nearly a decade ago. In her memories, she seemed to have a younger sister by two or three years. In the span of ten years, his uncle and aunt did not seem to have changed much. It was just that he had grown up from an ignorant child to a young man who was about to reach adulthood!

Zhang Lin seemed to be very happy as she held Qin Fengge's hand and asked her how warm it was. First, she hadn't seen Qin Fengge for so many years before she asked about everything from her home to Qin Fengge's studies. Qin Fengge responded to the myriad of questions raised by her aunt. At the same time, she inwardly complained: Why is she like my mother? Are all the older women so nagging?

Qin Fengge suddenly thought of something, "Where's cousin? Why didn't I see her? "

"Nana went to the cram school and will only be back before dinner. Right now, Wuhan has too much pressure on her to get promoted. Without good grades, she won't be able to get into a good university." The Nana that Qi Jun had mentioned was Qin Fengge's cousin, Qi Xuena.

"Oh." Qin Fengge did not say much but only thought to herself, "It seems that all parents take college entrance exam as their only way out for their children, even their uncles and families cannot be excluded!"

"May I see the other rooms?" Qin Fengge felt that it was too boring to just sit there like this. She wanted to stand up and stretch her body.

Qi Jun and Zhang Lin enthusiastically brought Qin Fengge around the house, introducing every room, every piece of furniture, and even every piece of furniture in the house. Qin Fengge listened attentively, nodding from time to time in praise.

The tone of the room is mainly white, with a wood color of furniture, simple, simple but not rigid. The walls were filled with landscape paintings and decorative paintings, which added to the cultural atmosphere as well as the color of the room. The three rooms each had their own capabilities. The master bedroom belonged to the couple, the small bedroom belonged to the daughter, and the small bedroom was used as a study. A new bed was placed in the study.

After visiting the rooms, Qin Fengge was somewhat moved. He believed that although this house could not be considered luxurious, it was much better than his family's simple house. Even though his uncle and aunt were rich, they did not have the mentality to show off their wealth. He thought about his parents, then looked at his uncle's blissful family. They were truly like heaven and earth!

At this moment, the door opened and a fifteen-year-old girl entered the room. Although Qin Fengge had seen her ten years ago, she had already lost track of her younger cousin's appearance after so many years.

Qi Jun waved his hand, "Nana, come over here quickly. This is your cousin, Qin Fengge. Do you still remember her?"

"Oh." Qi Xuena glanced at Qin Fengge and returned to her room without another word.

Qi Jun was embarrassed and tried to smooth things over. "This child has been spoiled since he was young. He doesn't know how to be polite. Please don't take offense!"

"It's alright," Qin Fengge replied with a smile.

During dinner, Qin Fengge observed her cousin and realized that she was not only rude, but also had the temper of a young miss. She still had a lot of food left in her bowl, so she expressed that she had finished eating and quickly returned to her room.

It seems like my uncle and aunt have really spoiled her, Qin Fengge thought.

After the meal, Qi Jun helped Qin Fengge arrange her bed. Qin Fengge gazed out the window at the brilliant lights, while in her heart, she thought about how she would explain to him the true purpose of her visit to Wuhan.

Qi Jun saw that the child had something on his mind and took the initiative to ask, "Chuchu, why are you so depressed? Are you unhappy with the bed, or do you miss home after just one day?"

"Uncle and Aunt are very good to me, but …" Qin Fengge steeled her heart and told the whole story.

After hearing this, Qi Junhong could not help but laugh, "Looks like this nephew of mine is really a scammer, he even used me, an uncle, as a weapon!"

"I didn't mean that. I was forced to do it …" Qin Fengge lowered her head.

"Don't be afraid, Uncle will support you!" Qi Jun patted Qin Fengge on the shoulder and said, "From tomorrow onwards, you can learn the zither without worry." Qi Jun patted Qin Fengge on the shoulder and said, "From tomorrow onwards, you can learn the zither without worry.

"Really?" Qin Fengge was overjoyed.

"How can that be false? Uncle has always kept his word. I'll help you buy the guqin!"

"No need," Qin Fengge quickly waved her hand, "I have enough money with me."

Qin Fengge took out an envelope from her luggage. Inside was two thousand yuan. Other than the several hundred yuan that her mother had given her before she left, the majority of the money was borrowed from Zheng Xiaochun.

Qi Jun was surprised, "Where did you get so much money?"

Qin Fengge did not speak the truth, but only said that it was her usual allowance.

"Impossible!" Your mother told me that she rarely gives you pocket money, and it's even more impossible for her to save up that much. Honestly speaking, didn't you borrow this money from someone else? "

Since the other party had already seen through it, Qin Fengge could only nod his head. However, he felt more relieved because he would never have imagined that his uncle was such a righteous person.

The next day, Qin Fengge arrived at the Zither Department just in time to see Zhou Datong as well as the employee of the Zither Department, Zhang Jingtao. Zhang Jingtao wasn't tall. He combed his crew cut and raised his head to squint. No matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a rock player. He looked more like a businessman. That's right, Zhang Jingtao was a business material. Not only did he understand the mentality of customers, he also knew a lot about guitars. He introduced the customers without end. Actually, Zhang Jingtao's marketing ability was even better than Yu Guannan's. It was just that he didn't have the capital to open the zither business, so he had to rely on someone else to start all over again. To Elder Zhang Jingtao, Yu Guannan was a good boss, and he was also an outstanding assistant in Yu Guannan's heart.

Yu Guannan opened the back door of the music shop. The three of them went out through the back door. They passed through a narrow corridor and arrived at a small room at the end. This should be the temporary residence of the shop assistant Zhang Jingtao, but there were also many musical instruments and related equipment.

"The land price of Wuhan is too expensive, so the space here is a little tight. I hope you two don't mind." After Yu Guannan expressed his apologies, he took out a book and impressively sat in front of him. "Let's have our first lesson today."

Qin Fengge felt it was strange. Since she was learning the zither, why would she take out a book instead of the zither?

"If you want to be a qualified musician, you need not only to master hard technology, but also to understand the concept of music. For example, the zither skill is an external skill while the music theory is an internal skill. We all know that no matter how strong a martial artist's external skill is, he is just a martial artist. Only by combining solid internal and strong external skills can he become a true martial arts expert. "The same goes for learning the zither. One must lay a solid foundation in order to improve more quickly.

Qin Fengge asked, "Then are there any good musicians who don't understand music?"

Yu Guannan said, "There is. However, it's still extremely rare, and it belongs to the category of geniuses." However, I advise the two of you to not take this shortcut.
