Chapter 115: know a little

Chapter 115 A little bit better

 In a quiet classroom.

Cheng Wan said: "Learn from the ancient etiquette. The ancient etiquette is profound and profound, and it implements all aspects of walking, sitting and lying down. Many of our current etiquettes are inherited from ancient times and simplified. If you want to film a costume drama well, you must have certain etiquette. You can’t make any mistakes. Today’s audiences are all keen-eyed. If you make the wrong gesture or do something substandard, you’ll be laughed at.”

Jiang Lingxi nodded seriously, expressing deep agreement.

Cheng Wan saw this and smiled, "So I'm going to use today's full day to teach you all kinds of ancient etiquette without teaching anything else. If you're afraid that you won't remember it well enough and make mistakes when you practice alone later, You can record a video for later comparison and study. But I’ll say it first, this video can only be used by you and cannot be used for profit. After all, this is what the teacher makes a living.”

Facing the hidden threat in Teacher Cheng's eyes when he finished speaking, Jiang Lingxi also smiled at her: "I think my memory is not bad."

Cheng Wan raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's get started. First, the standing posture..."

after an hour.

Cheng Wan silently took the water glass handed over by Lu Zhengzheng. After taking a few sips, he looked at Jiang Lingxi who had just put down the water glass. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Have you learned this before?"

 The most basic ancient etiquette is embodied in walking, sitting, lying down and communicating with others and saluting. Many people will think it is very simple after seeing it, but not many people can really learn it.

She also started learning from scratch. During this period, she took many detours, checked out a lot of information related to etiquette, and practiced day after day. This was the confidence she had to stand here and teach others. .

 But now, she felt that her self-confidence was shaky.

 Which student’s teaching content is more standard than the teacher’s? Can a teacher be stable?

Jiang Lingxi recalled the experience of studying and learning etiquette together with other brothers and sisters in her previous life. It was one of the courses that children of ancient families, especially those from wealthy families, had to learn when they were young.

Thinking of this, she nodded hesitantly, "Yes."

 If what you learned at that time counts.

Of course, the main reason is that if she shakes her head, the teacher Cheng in front of her may collapse even more.

When Cheng Wan saw her nodding, he felt somewhat comforted.

“If you have the foundation, you can tell me in advance, so that I can evaluate your level in this area first, and then teach based on your current level, which can also save time to learn more.”

Jiang Lingxi nodded and was about to speak when someone knocked on the classroom door.

Lu Zhengzheng trotted over and opened the door. When the two of them looked towards the door, they saw Tong Yue smiling at them.

“Well, excuse me, Teacher Ha Cheng, I just applied for this instrument and sent it over quickly. Didn’t it delay your teaching?”

Cheng Wan, who previously said he would devote one day to teaching ancient etiquette: "...No, I came just in time."

It seems that she can't teach her anything about etiquette. If she continues to teach her, she will probably have to be taught by Jiang Lingxi.

 This batch of musical instruments really came at just the right time for her.

Upon hearing this, Tong Yue breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, waved her hands, and shouted to a few people who took the initiative to help carry the instrument: "Please move it in, handle it gently, and follow Teacher Cheng's instructions on where to put it."

Everyone nodded in agreement and carefully lined up to move the things in.

Guzheng, guqin, pipa, flute... The person who came in recently actually had an erhu in his hand that had not been wiped clean of the dust.

Cheng Wan’s eyelids couldn’t help but twitch.

  She said before that she wanted some classical instruments so that she could pose with them, but she didn’t say that she wanted to form a folk band.

 Is this execution a bit too much?

After having the courage to direct everyone to place the instruments, Cheng Wan looked at the instruments that took up almost half of the classroom space, hesitated for a moment and sat down in front of the guzheng.

Since the students were so well prepared, what else could she do, bite the bullet and continue teaching. Fortunately I was just posing, not really playing or singing.

 The door of the classroom.

Before Tong Yue left with the people who came to help, she did not forget to clench her fist and make a cheering gesture to Jiang Lingxi, "Take a good lesson with Teacher Cheng, this is a rare opportunity!"

Jiang Lingxi: "Yeah."

Since the opportunity is rare, it shouldn’t be too much for her to learn faster and try to learn as much as possible from Teacher Cheng in this limited time, right?

The classroom door was closed, Cheng Wan flicked the strings of the piano under his hand, looked at Jiang Lingxi who was walking towards him, and asked with a smile: "See if there are any instruments you know among these, you can try playing it first, I It’s also a good idea to see if there is anything that needs to be corrected in terms of posture.”

“Yes, I do, but I haven’t played these games for a long time.”

Before she became the Crown Princess in her previous life, she was still a serious princess. Naturally, she also systematically learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting from famous teachers from all over the world.

 But until she became the crown princess, and even later ascended the throne, she rarely touched instruments such as musical instruments, which were used to have fun and cultivate the body and mind.

After all, there was an entire palace orchestra just for her to listen to and enjoy, so she was too lazy to do it herself.

"Although there are many types of musical instruments here, in general costume dramas, the guqin and zither are used the most, followed by flutes and flutes. Although there are also erhus, they appear very rarely." Cheng Wan first said The frequency of photographing the musical instruments present was popularized, and Jiang Lingxi happened to be standing in front of a guqin at this moment, "Why don't you try the guqin first?"

Jiang Lingxi just had this idea, so she sat down cross-legged in front of the guqin.

Cheng Wan watched her movements and swallowed the words he was about to remind Gu Qin about the correct sitting posture.

Jiang Lingxi looked at the ordinary-looking guqin in front of her, stretched out her hand and gently flicked a string, and the sound made her frown subconsciously.

 Compared with the music she had heard before, it was like heaven and earth.

It’s not just the material of the instrument that’s a problem, but also, isn’t there anyone in the company who regularly maintains and tunes the instrument?

Cheng Wan watched from the side as Jiang Lingxi played a note on the guqin. Then he found a small tool from the piano case and started tinkering with it. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Lingxi was busy when he heard the words and replied: "The sound of the piano is wrong."

 Cheng Wan: “…”

 What she wants to teach is not real playing!

But looking at Jiang Lingxi’s serious expression while tinkering with the instrument, she opened her mouth and finally swallowed her words back.

 It took about ten minutes before Jiang Lingxi plucked the string again. After listening to the sound, she reluctantly nodded with satisfaction.

 The material of the piano is here, she couldn't ask for more.

This time not only Cheng Wan, but also Lu Zhengzheng could hear the difference between the two timbres.

 The former is mixed with noise and sounds empty, while the latter has a clear and clear timbre with a long aftertaste.

I suddenly forgot Sister Tong’s previous instructions and couldn’t help but ask: “Can Sister Xixi still play the guqin?”

Jiang Lingxi lowered her eyes and looked at her hands on top of the guqin, and answered with a short piece of music that she used to like to listen to.

At the end of the short period, she looked up at Lu Zhengzheng and saw that the girl had just put down the mobile phone in her hand.

“Well, I couldn’t help but record it for a while. Sister Xixi, don’t worry, I’ve saved it in a private folder.”

When Cheng Wan heard Lu Zhengzheng's voice, he came back to his senses from the lingering sound in his ears. He looked at Jiang Lingxi, who was sitting elegantly cross-legged in front of the guqin. Somehow, there was something inexplicable about her at the moment that might not be very suitable for her. Wonderful premonition.
