Chronicle of Studying Abroad

Qin Shui raised his head and met Shang Yuanshan's complicated eyes, he was stunned for a moment: "Why are you here?"

Then he looked down slightly and saw the book in Yuan Shan's hand, and laughed: "You help Professor Solina get the book? Why didn't you call me when you came?"

Yuanshan rubbed his nose, and said to him from left to right: "I went to Professor Solina's office to ask questions, and she asked me to send this book by the way. I didn't expect it to be what you needed."

Qin Shui raised the corner of his mouth, a little happy: "That's just right, let me buy you a drink, and treat it as an errand fee."

Yuan Shan subconsciously wanted to respond, but the lingering shadow in his heart blocked his throat, and he hesitated for a while: "I still have to go to the library, and I have a math homework due tonight."

Yuan Shan did not lie, he did have an advanced math homework to hand in today, but he did it as early as last week.The system will automatically check the answers he saved on the web page after the dead line, so don't bother.

Qin Shui opened his mouth, as if he didn't expect Yuanshan to refuse, he was also silent for a moment, the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, and the computer was running desperately and buzzing.

Yuan Shan suddenly felt a little regretful, and annoyed at his unusual performance.

It's just a drink, and I feel like I care a lot.

Qin Shui looked at Yuan Shan's expression, and Yuan Shan avoided his gaze uncomfortably.

It was Qin Shui who spoke first: "That can't be helped, I'll buy you a drink when I have a chance later."

Yuan Shan lowered his shoulders, feeling a little frustrated himself: "Then... I'll go first." His tone was so low that he didn't even realize it.

Qin Shui nodded, with slight waves in his eyes.

He didn't know what happened to Wonsan, he could still vividly remember Wonsan who was so emotional a few days ago.Is it because of what happened that day that you feel embarrassed?

But it doesn't seem to be the case.

Qin Shui didn't tell Yuan Shan that when he pulled Yuan Shan over to lean on his shoulder that day, he looked down at him, feeling distressed in his heart.

This emotion was so strange but menacing that in the end he couldn't speak for himself.

He couldn't figure out why he would have such emotions towards a man of the same sex.

I just want to show the best things and stuff them into the other party's hands. As long as I can get a smile from the other party, it's all worth it.

Before he had time to hide from Yuanshan, he realized that there was no need to hide by himself. Yuanshan would always be surrounded by a group of people, but he was never among them.

When Qin Shui came back to his senses, Yuan Shan had already gone out.

He quickly got up and rushed to the door, but he was already gone.

If it is really what I think, I am afraid that this relationship must be killed in the cradle.

Won San is obviously a straight man, he can do some things, but he can't touch some things.

"Ding——" Qin Shui's contemplation was interrupted by the ringtone of the mobile phone message. He picked up the mobile phone in a dispirited manner, and glanced across the screen. It was Xue Jun.

Xue: Do you have time tonight?I have something to talk to you about.

Xue: About the matter between us.

Xue: Is the star dad across from the school okay?

Qin Shui: Good.

Qin Shui also had a premonition of what Xue Jun was going to say, so he smiled wryly.

Even if Yuanshan is not straight, and his place is still a mess, how can he go to Huo Huo's house?

Xue Yun put down the phone, looking lonely, he opened the chat history with his parents, and stared at the words on it for a while.Then he quit again and watched the conversation between him and Qin Shui verbatim for a long time until the agreed time.

Before going out, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and there was more determination in his eyes.

In the evening, I packaged the repaired pictures and travel notes and sent them to the magazine. I saw a few photos of Qin Shui when I went to the website of Yuanshanguan.He has never shown these photos to the person concerned. In fact, this is the first photo to be retouched.

Yuan Shan didn't move a lot, Qin Shui's face and figure were nothing to fix, he just adjusted the color, because he was dissatisfied, he overturned it several times, and he just repaired the details.

Yuan Shan shrank the page, thought about it, and sent it to Qin Shui's mailbox.

Then the mouse dangled near the recycle bin, and finally failed to delete it ruthlessly.He sighed and shook his head.

Won San, you are finished Won San.

The next day there was a music club activity, and Yuan Shan and Martin made an appointment.

As soon as Yuanshan arrived, Martin rushed over soon.He came over with a cello and put it on the table, while Andrew stood by to watch the excitement.

"Shan, you have learned the piano, which is very helpful for learning these stringed instruments. At least the intonation will be better than those who have never learned musical instruments." Martin usually doesn't talk much, but now he knows everything when teaching.

Martin took the cello out of the case, lovingly caressing the smooth surface of the cello, and lightly plucked a few strings with his fingers.The cello made a soft and melodious sound, as if responding to Martin.

Martin adjusted the support rod of the base of the cello, and placed a rubber support for anti-slip on the ground. He taught Yuanshan how to hold the violin with each hand, which part of the body the violin should lean on to exert strength, how to place the hands, and the elbows. What's the angle like.

Passing the rosin-coated bow to Yuan Shan, Martin smiled, with encouragement in his eyes: "Try it."

When you first come into contact with a new thing, people always have to be extra cautious, full of expectations and longings.

When he got his hands off, he was first surprised by the feeling his subordinates felt, and then he was very embarrassed by the noise he made, and his subordinates' movements were no longer as wide open and closed as before.

Andrew laughed, but Martin still had the same smile on his face, but it was a little more funny. He comforted: "It was like this at the beginning. When I first started learning, I was also shocked by the voice I made. Why do other people play the cello so well, but I can’t? It’s probably because I play the cello wrong.”

It's the so-called "It's not my fault, it's all the world's fault".

Andrew patted Martin on the shoulder and laughed endlessly: "You still have that time?"

Martin glanced at him. "No one is born with it."

Andrew's smile remained undiminished, but his expression was indeed a little more serious. He nodded with emotion: "That's right."

Andrew has been learning the piano since kindergarten, and he has practiced for no less than 6 hours a day until today.A few years before the school interview in country A, the daily practice time was more than 8 hours.

Heaven pays off in this respect is always clearly manifested.

As for Yuan Shan, he thought of the time when he practiced dancing. He knew it clearly, so he put his mind on it calmly: "I understand, I just want to trouble you."

Martin patted him on the shoulder: "Thank you, I still want to learn how to dance with you. The previous movement of jumping with hands on the ground is really cool!"

What Martin is talking about is the plane jump in Breaking, which is also called CRICKETS in English.

A simple description is that people are in a prone position, but only their hands are on the ground and their feet are off the ground.Then the wrists, arms and waist continuously drive the whole body to rotate, because there will be a slight jump and the posture of the person, so it is called the plane jump.

This movement requires extremely high arm strength of the dancer. At that time, in order to practice this movement, Yuanshan did hundreds of push-ups and pull-ups every day, and it is not clear how many sit-ups he did. He also practiced handstands for a long time.

In short, many of the movements in breaking look cool and cool, but the actual practice means that the practitioner knows it.

Yuan Shan asked Martin again: "Are you sure you want to learn? I can teach you."

Andrew punched Martin and teased: "I don't think he can do it."

Martin stared: "Who said that!"

Seeing that Martin was about to respond to his agitation, Andrew hurriedly stopped him: "What should I do if I hurt my hand?"

Martin fell silent for a moment, glared at Andrew bitterly, and sighed: "It's also..."

People who learn musical instruments must take good care of their hands. If they are not smooth, it will have a great impact on the performance of the repertoire.

This is why Yuan's mother often took care of him when he was a child, not letting him learn taekwondo, which is easy to hurt his hands and feet, and even playing a game of basketball. If Shanrong doesn't join the class, she might stop her.

There is nothing Won San can do about it.

Just like learning to dance, playing the cello requires some basic skills, that is, some basic fingerings for pushing and pulling the bow, pressing and vibrating the strings, and the most important thing is pitch.

So in the first month of Wonsan, except for some simple minor keys, he was either drawing scales, or looking for notes on the tuner, making sure that his left hand could press the notes as close as possible.

This is different from the guitar, which has grades, that is, the usual metal frets will separate the neck of the guitar from the grades, which is equivalent to the keyboard of a piano.A classical guitar has 12 frets and a piano has 88 keys.

Both don't need to worry about intonation, but fingering is very difficult.

Of course, the piano tuning will be adjusted by a tuner.The guitar also requires the player to tighten or loosen the strings according to the tuner.

But the cello, like a piano with all the keys joined together, is troublesome.

But Wonsan also knew that the basics that Martin asked him to practice were very important. Even though it was boring, he still practiced patiently and slowly.

This day he came to the piano room to practice scales again. Martin checked his intonation and told him with satisfaction that he could enter the next stage of learning.

Yuan Shan hurriedly presented the song he wanted to practice to Martin. Martin looked at Yuan Shan meaningfully: "You are very challenging, Shan."

Yuan Shan smiled modestly: "No, no, I just think it sounds good."

Andrew sat in front of the grand piano and practiced fingering, but his ears were very sharp. He bared his teeth and laughed: "Shan, you think Martin is praising you, he said that you are overestimated."

Martin turned back and pointed to Andrew: "Shut up, practice your piano well, and I'll see what you do when you get back to class this week."

Andrew stuck out his tongue, stretched out his hand in front of his mouth and made a zipper motion, then turned his head and continued to practice the arpeggio.

Martin comforted Won San, "I'm not trying to hurt you. It will take a while to practice this song well."

Yuan Shan knew the specific time that was vague in Martin's words. He checked the Internet, and most of them said it would take three years.

For three years, the day lily was cold.

But it's all started, should I just give up now?What's more, he made up his mind to ask Martin after he learned about this.

He must do what he is determined to do. As for whether he can do it, he will not think about what happens after he does it.After all, these thoughts will not help his current situation, but will stop him from moving forward.

"Martin, please." Wonsan said solemnly.

Looking into Shang Yuanshan's eyes, Martin naturally understood his stubbornness, sighed and laughed again: "Then don't blame me for being too strict with you."

Yuan Shan nodded: "I can't ask for it."

After thinking for a while, Martin first took out a Walkman from his pocket, then turned around and took a tablet out of his bag, and pulled out the score of this piece from it.

He sat next to Yuan Shan: "Then let me create an overall impression for you first, so that you can understand what kind of song it is. I will tell you about the background of the composition of this song later, but for now you first Listen to it and tell me what you think."

Yuan Shan has actually heard it many times, and he is familiar with the melody, but he still listens to it quietly after taking over the earphones as Martin said.

Martin picked up the other earphone and listened with him.

The two people here are immersed in the ocean of music and cannot extricate themselves, while the door of the music classroom over there is gently pushed open.

A person walked in, and when he saw Wonsan, he looked surprised and complicated.

The author has something to say:

Some of the things about learning cello and dancing are based on my own experience in related fields and online verification. If there are any mistakes, please advise, because Jianxian has never learned cello or anything hahahahahahahaha.

Guess which song Won San chose?Who is it?
