After the weekend, it was cloudy and rainy for several days.

Because of the exams, two courses are over, and the students have a little more free time than usual. It is inevitable that some of them who are not concentrating on the exams want to go out for fun.

Shen Tinglan received many invitations, but he rejected them all one by one. On the one hand, he is in a bad mood recently and has no interest in having fun; Look at his appearance, so he tried to stay in the apartment as much as possible, so that the old man would not bother to come over and be in vain.

In addition, he also took the time to choose some Christmas decorations, and asked the housekeeper to decorate them when she came to clean, and discussed with the other party to prepare a Christmas Eve dish, asking the other party to come to the apartment in advance that night to prepare.

So this week, he didn't go out except for a few classes that he had to attend, but the days were full every day, so he didn't feel bored at all.

At noon on Christmas Eve, Wang Han called.

"Brother Lan, there is a show in the small auditorium tonight. There are so many beautiful girls. I've got all the tickets for you!"

"No," Shen Tinglan made an excuse, "It's freezing outside."

"Brother Lan, what are you afraid of driving? I have seen their rehearsals. They are really good-looking. Don't lie to you, Brother Lan! If you don't come, you will lose money!"

Shen Tinglan felt that he was making a fuss: "There is nothing wrong with it. I don't look at them and they won't look ugly. I still have festival tasks in the game today. You can find someone else to watch it together."

"Brother Lan..."

The doorbell just rang, and Shen Tinglan hurriedly jumped off the sofa, without shoes on, and ran towards the entrance with a pair of fluffy house socks: "Here we come!"

Then he said to the phone: "The courier is here, I won't tell you." He hung up.

The reason why he was so anxious was because the things outside the door were the things he most wanted to show Wei Li tonight.

In other words, this is the gift he really wanted to give Wei Li.

Three workers carried it through the door and worked hard for most of the afternoon, finally making this gift present the most perfect appearance - on the Santos mahogany piano shell, the paint film is clean and clean, and the 88 keys are spotless. The sound is beautiful and rich.

Shen Tinglan couldn't imagine what Wei Li's surprise would look like, but he was sure that he would see it at night.

After happily seeing off several master workers, the elevator opened, and the housekeeper just came out with all kinds of fresh ingredients.

After a while, there was the sound of splashing water in the kitchen, and it turned into the sound of chopping vegetables after a while.Although Shen Tinglan didn't participate in it, but listening to the voice, he felt that he was quite busy.

It was already dark, so he ran to the kitchen door and looked around for a while, then turned and turned on the lights in the living room—not all of them, but only the one above the piano.Then he took out the blue velvet piano cover and covered the piano completely.

At around 06:30 in the afternoon, Wei Li walked into the door of the apartment.

The voice-activated lights in the corridor of the apartment were very bright, so when Shen Tinglan opened the door, Wei Li felt that it was almost dark inside, only the Christmas wreath on the wall was bright, because there were twinkling colorful strings of lights hanging on it.

"You came a little earlier than I expected," Shen Tinglan stared at him as he changed his shoes and took off his coat. "The roast chicken will be out of the oven in 10 minutes. Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat first?"

"I'm fine, I won't eat before dinner." Wei Li followed him into the living room, and his eyes couldn't help seeing a huge monster in the brightest part of the living room.

Although the object was covered with a velvet cloth, judging from its shape, it was clearly a grand piano.

Shen Tinglan looked at the subtle expression on his face from the side, and then raised the corners of his mouth: "You can go over and lift the cover to have a look."

Hearing this, Wei Li glanced at him with a little surprise in his eyes, then regained his composure, turned around and walked towards the toilet: "I'll go wash my hands first."

It took him 3 minutes to wash it, Shen Tinglan waited outside with full of anticipation, it felt like three years had passed.Later, I couldn't wait any longer, and ran to the toilet door, trying to knock on the door and call him, but suspected that he was going to the toilet, which was not good.

After hesitating for a while, Wei Li opened the door and came out, wearing a light fragrance of hand sanitizer, Shen Tinglan hurriedly pulled his sleeve and dragged him to the living room, half urging and half complaining: "Oh, look at something , it doesn’t have to be as solemn as a ceremony.”

Although he said this, he was actually very happy in his heart, because he felt that Wei Li was serious, seriousness meant that he valued it, seriousness meant that he liked it, and liking it meant that he didn't buy this piano for nothing.

The toilet was too far away from the light, Wei Li didn't notice many of his thoughts in the dim light, but after the cover of the piano was completely pulled away, he was truly amazed by the piano, and admitted that Shen Tinglan had given up on it. There is a certain reason for him to sell Guanzi.

The piano is not the common black, but the original wood grain, and it is not ordinary wood - the dark brown wood has a gradual effect when the light shines, from the jewel-like dark brown in the center of the top cover to the surrounding area Deep black, very beautiful.

Shen Tinglan saw appreciation from his silent gaze, and quickly dragged out the piano bench hidden under the piano, and then instructed him how to fix the piano cover.

After finishing both sides, he sat down on the piano bench and beckoned Wei Li to sit next to him: "Steinway's pianos are better than the ones in the store. Come and play."

Wei Li put his hand on the piano, thoughtfully said: "I don't know many pieces."

"You can play anything..." Shen Tinglan glanced at him, saw his clean hands with red fingertips, and reached out to touch them, "Why did you wash your hands so cold?"

"Grease and sweat on hands can easily damage the piano paint, so I washed it carefully just now." Wei Li explained indifferently, then thought of a song that could be played, touched the keys and started to play.

He played "Snail and Oriole" this time. Because he recalled while playing, the rhythm was slower than the original song. After listening to it for a while, Shen Tinglan couldn't help laughing: "Why are you so cute, always Play the song that the children play."

Wei Li focused on playing the piano, didn't pay attention to the teasing in his words, and answered seriously: "Because it was taught by the teacher in elementary school, and I haven't played it since graduation."

His appearance of answering every question made Shen Tinglan feel that he was very obedient for the first time, so cute.Shen Tinglan imagined what he looked like when he was a child, and he was a quiet and well-behaved pretty boy, um, the type of a good student.

Wei Li finished playing a section, and said sincerely: "The sound of this piano is very good, very soft and concentrated."

Shen Tinglan smiled: "Congratulations, you can come and play every week from now on, and play for me."

Wei Li turned his head to look at him, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he couldn't help laughing: "You like listening to children's songs so much?"

"That's right, I have to play something else. Just wait," Shen Tinglan stood up and walked to the bedroom, "I'll find a sheet music."

Wei Li sat on the piano bench waiting for him, and heard him walking around in the bedroom, followed by various sounds of rummaging through boxes and cabinets, so he simply searched for music on his mobile phone, and tried to play a few bars, However, because I haven't practiced it before, it is inevitable that I will stumble a bit when playing it.

When he practiced until he could basically play four bars in a row, Shen Tinglan finally came out of the room, touching a piano music collection in his hand.

The side of the album is a little yellowed, it can be seen that it is an old thing.Wei Li was suddenly a little curious, wondering why Shen Tinglan didn't play the piano on weekdays, and didn't like to read books, but would bring such an old book to the apartment.

"These are not categorized by difficulty, you have to read them one by one." Shen Tinglan sat down, flipped through the catalog and glanced at them, and then turned back page by page, "See if there is anything you want to play, I'll teach you .”

Wei Li asked: "Do you know this book?"

"Yes." Shen Tinglan said, "The difficulty of this book does not exceed level six, and it happens that my level is five or six."

Wei Li saw that he turned to a page that was torn clean while he was talking, and thought that he must have torn up what he didn't know before, so he dared to say this.

But today is the holiday, so don't expose it.

"I haven't heard any of these songs, you can choose them."

"Hmm..." Shen Tinglan pondered for a while, "Then this song, "One Day You Came", is suitable for the occasion, and the rhythm is still slow. I'll play it for you first."

Shen Tinglan put the score on the shelf and fixed it, and then started teaching.He was good at playing, but he was not qualified to be a teacher, and the teaching guidance was very poor. Fortunately, Wei Li was a good enough student, remembering to learn quickly, and it still gave him a sense of satisfaction that "a famous teacher produces a good apprentice". .

The two taught and learned a lot, and they were very devoted. It wasn't until Shen Tinglan felt hungry that he realized that it had been 10 minutes since the chicken was roasted, and hurried to the kitchen.

As soon as the oven was turned on, a strong aroma of fat overflowed. Wei Li closed the lid and went to help, bringing other dishes to the table one by one.

There are green placemats on the table, red pillows on the chairs, white candles on the table, and even the desserts are matcha muffins piled up in the shape of a Christmas tree. Everything has a Christmas atmosphere.

Smelling the fragrance in the air and feeling the warmth created by the air conditioner, the atmosphere in this space is indeed warm and pleasant.Shen Tinglan looked at Wei Li who was chewing the chicken very seriously, and he thought that he really liked everything that constitutes this time and space.

"It's time to drink some wine." He naturally made a proposal, and at the same time walked to the large refrigerator with double sliding doors, and took out his own inventory.

Holding his arms full of wine, he walked up to the table and couldn't hold it any longer. Duang slammed it on the table. Wei Li reached out to help him, and was stuffed with a can of beer: "These cans are non-alcoholic. Here you are. Those with alcohol are mine."

He took off his beer bottle cap: "Come on, cheers!"

Wei Li unzipped the ring of the can, touched him, took a sip, and felt that the taste was refreshing, and it went well with vegetables.Seeing Shen Tinglan gurgling in front of him, he thought that the other party was happy, so he only advised him to drink slowly, and continued to immerse himself in the festive atmosphere - this kind of experience was also very good for him. Rare.

He still doesn't know what unimaginable things will happen after this meal.

[The author has something to say: Blind and eight small theaters] (all fake)

Wei Li: It's rare that you teach so seriously.

Shen Tinglan: You treasure this piano so much, how dare I stain it with messy things (///////).
