Wen Qing put on a faint smile when she heard this. “Yes, I remember Shan Shan learning piano, because in the school, during vocal music class, she displayed a talent for music. It was her vocal music teacher that suggested for her to learn it.”

The aunt nodded in agreement and looked at Xu Shan lovingly as if seeing her outstanding, glorious future.

​

Warm pressed her lips tight. She used to like Xu Shan, but she really did not like the whole family looking down on her daughter, which made her feel sad.

Ruan Jiao Jiao understood Warm’s expression. She looked at the food on the table with regret, raised a smiling face, and jumped out of the chair, walking to the piano.

She turned back to raise a small face to look at the crowd, “sister play really good, Jiao Jiao also wants to try!”

Xu Shan frowned. “this piano is just tuned, don’t touch it if you don’t know how to use it.”

A group of elders looked at each other and shook their heads with a smile. The little girl, Jiao Jiao Jiao, could not even understand the score, but she still wanted to play the piano.

Wen Qing magnanimously said, “Shan Shan, you should teach her, in case Jiao Jiao also has talent, in the future you two can be like sisters, learning the piano together. That’s such a beautiful scene to think about.”

Xu Shan reluctantly gave way to one side and let Ruan Jiao Jiao sit on the side of her chair.

She taught it in a decent way. “You put one hand on these keys and stay still like I do.”

Ruan Jiao Jiao obediently laid her hand on the key.

Xu Shan said, “I’ll teach you the first verse of the simplest Ode to Joy. You can’t understand the score, and you can’t play with both hands in coordination. You just play one hand first, remember the numbers, and the little finger is 5 until the thumb is 1. 54321. Remember these keys?”

Ruan Jiao Jiao nodded.

Several adults looked at this scene, some people praised and sighed. “Look at Shan Shan teaching. In the future, Shan Shan can be a piano teacher, that’s good too.”

Xu Shan said, “the first quarter, 3345,5432,1123322, you try it first, 3345 …”

Before the words were finished, she had put her hands on the piano.

Although her hands were so small that they couldn’t even completely cover a few keys, the beautiful tune jumped out of her fingers in an instant.

It’s not the Ode to Joy Xu Shan just taught.

It’s the song Xu Shan just played!

Ruan Jiao Jiao’s hands were too small to cover the keys, but she was flexible and did not drop any scales!

She was even saying, “Georg Philipp Telemann’s Bourrée, I’ve heard it in the video. Sister, is that how it works?”

Jiao Jiao was just speaking nonsense. This is the music that she once played to pass the grade examination, of course, she was skilled.

The notes played by Jiao Jiao were more accurate and the playing was more smooth. She was obviously more skilled than when Xu Shan played just now.

The whole family was shocked and looked at the scene in an incredible way.

Especially Warm. She opened her mouth wide and looked at her daughter sitting in front of the piano in disbelief!

Her daughter, playing the piano?

And skilled at playing the piano?

How is this possible?

“How is this possible…” was also exclaimed subconsciously by Xu Shan herself. She sat next to Jiao Jiao, clearly seeing how flexible her fingers were.

She had trained with this song for the next grade examination. Xu Shan was being modest. In fact, she practiced no less than 30 times to play the complete song.

Even then, there were the occasional wrong sounds in the middle, which the family could not hear.
