My wife is in my arms

Chapter 846 Birthday Banquet Part 5
"Zhang You, tell me the truth, is my daughter not suited to playing the piano?!"

Ask this question.

Tan Yao's gaze became both serious and tense, showing that she valued Zhang You's evaluation very much. Even her daughter looked at Zhang You.

"How can it be!?"

Zhang You felt troubled and said, "It's already very good. Playing the piano, like any other skill, requires practice to master. My teaching methods are no different from those of the extracurricular teachers, and in fact... they are more professional than me in teaching children."

I heard my husband say this.

Jiang Yiren subtly pursed her lips.

She didn't believe that. There's a big difference between a good teacher and an ordinary teacher. Why are some people famous teachers while others are just ordinary teachers?

In terms of college entrance examination pass rates alone, it's incomparable.

Putting aside the fact that her daughter is of average talent, Jiang Yiren felt that even if her husband spent an hour or two each night directing her, her daughter had made considerable progress.

She had watched her husband teach their two children. Whenever they didn't play a part well, her husband would immediately increase the difficulty of that part and have Xiao Zishan and Li Ran play it again. After half an hour, when they played that part on the piano again, the part that they hadn't been able to play well before was now played quite well.

This is due to the teaching ability of a good teacher.

Changing the teacher for the extracurricular class would at most make the child spend more time cramming on that part, so her husband mainly didn't want to accept Tan Yao's daughter.

However, Jiang Yiren also agreed with her husband's decision not to take in Tan Yao's daughter. The main reason was that Zhong Xia would be able to earn money in a few years. Although Li Ran was still young, her husband would raise her and teach her, so her future contract would definitely be signed with her family. But Tan Yao's daughter was different; if she were to be taught, it would be purely teaching.

"That's it!"

Tan Yao nodded. At this moment, she realized that Zhang You really didn't intend to accept her daughter as a disciple. So, after hesitating slightly, she changed the subject and said, "If you won't accept my daughter as a disciple, I can't force you. How about making you your godfather?"

As he spoke, Tan Yao pulled his daughter over and made her kneel down to call Zhang You "godfather".

Sitting on the sofa, Zhang You pulled the little girl up and said jokingly, "I'd like to find a big shot to call my godfather! I'm not qualified to be someone else's godfather, so Tan Yao... we're not playing that game. I know what you mean. When your daughter grows up, I'll do everything I can to help her whenever she needs me."

"Zhang You, are you...?"

Before Tan Yao could finish speaking, Zhang You raised his hand to interrupt him, saying with a smile, "There's no need for that. Don't worry, I was just saying that if I have any influence in the entertainment industry in the future, I'll definitely help. We're leaving now, no need to see us off."

Done.

Zhang You, holding the hands of two children carrying chocolate boxes, turned and walked towards the door. If he had known that Tan Yao and his wife had this idea, he shouldn't have come tonight.

"gone"

Jiang Yiren waved to Tan Yao and then left with her husband.

"mom"

Ma Yuhan turned her head and called out to her mother, Tan Yao.

"You saw it yourself, they won't accept you."

Like other mothers, Tan Yao is also stubborn. In this society, most men are more open-minded, as if they have reached a consensus that "whatever you do is what you do, why care so much!" But women are different; it's as if they are "stubborn" to the core.

Jiang Yiren also rolled up her sleeve.

Last year, I wanted to enroll Xiao Zishan in all sorts of tutoring classes, but because Zhang You was holding her back, I didn't let her. However, I usually watch Xiao Zishan do her homework, and I can't stand it if she makes a mistake on even the simplest questions.

The main reason Tan Yao wanted Zhang You to take her daughter in was that since her daughter liked playing the piano, as a mother, she naturally wanted to find the best teacher for her.

In the field of piano, is there any teacher better than Zhang You...? There must be, but she doesn't know any. The only piano master she knows is Zhang You.

Tan Yao believes that if Zhang You were to teach, he would certainly not limit himself to just the piano, since Zhang You is proficient in many kinds of instruments and has achieved great success in each one.

Even though he hasn't publicly demonstrated it, like the erhu mentioned in "The Street Where the Wind Dwells," which he's never played before, the fact that he used it in the composition and played it so well makes it hard to believe he can't play. The same goes for "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies" and the songs he performed with guitar accompaniment at Jiang Yiren's concert. To say he can't play the guitar... well, even the audience wouldn't believe it, let alone people in the industry. On the contrary, after seeing him play, some people have even asked, "How big is the gap between Zhang You and a professional guitarist?!"

however.

Without exception.

Even those within the industry generally agree that "as long as Zhang You doesn't play himself, professional guitarists can only serve as background musicians in his music team."

Reaching out to ruffle his daughter's hair, Tan Yao took a deep breath and whispered, "But it's okay. His piano level is only about the same as your extracurricular teacher. If he doesn't teach, you can just learn from your teacher."

At this time.

Tan Yao's husband walked in.

"How about it!?"

Tan Yao's husband asked.

"I won't accept him, I won't even accept him as my godfather."

Tan Yao chose to tell the truth.

"let it go"

Tan Yao's husband asked.

"What else can we do?! Threaten us, are we?!"

Unlike her attitude towards Zhang You and his wife, Tan Yao's tone now carried a hint of anger. Seeing this, her husband immediately said, "I still have guests to see off; I'll go deliver them now."

The neon lights illuminated the city at night, echoing the starry sky.

"I understand why you won't accept Tan Yao's daughter as your disciple."

As the car drove along the road, Jiang Yiren asked, "Why did you refuse when Tan Yao asked your daughter to be your godfather?"

"Both of them are shrewd and calculating."

Zhang You casually replied, "I guess Tan Yao wants her daughter to enter the entertainment industry, so he's trying to pave the way for her."

How did you figure that out!?

Jiang Yiren asked, puzzled.

"See with your eyes"

Zhang You retorted irritably, "Didn't you see that Tan Yao was having his daughter practice piano while also training her to dance?! Isn't that blatantly trying to get her into the entertainment industry?"

It's often said that studying music and dance doesn't mean you want to enter the entertainment industry, but that's just nonsense. There are only those who want to enter but can't, and very few who would choose to give up an opportunity to enter the entertainment industry.

Given an opportunity, if not 100%, at least 99% of people will seize it.

Let's not talk about the distant past, but about the near future. If a production goes to these schools to select music and dance students for roles, they're guaranteed to sign up. At that point, no one will say things like, "I learn piano as a hobby, and I learn to dance to exercise."

On Earth, a story about a performing arts troupe in the 1970s and 80s needed dancers to play roles, and more than 6,000 girls auditioned.

Even before the audition, there are age and natural appearance restrictions.

If there were no limits, who knows how many there would be!
