The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

"Old Li, why don't you wait downstairs? Your leg..."

"It's okay, just walk slowly, Chen Hao is supporting me."

Chen Hao looked at the stairs, then at Li Shengli's legs. Climbing to the third floor would be too difficult for the leaders.

"Commander, let me carry you up."

After saying this, Chen Hao squatted down in front of Li Shengli.

Li Shengli patted him on the shoulder, "No need, at least not now. You're not a young man anymore."

Chen Hao is over forty and has been with Li Shengli for many years.

In fact, they spend far more time together than with their families.

Before they retired, they were inseparable.

Knowing Li Shengli's temper, Chen Hao could only get up and support his arm.

Ye Zhao also had a hard time climbing to the third floor, and had to stop and rest after taking a few steps.

She could only offer advice to Li Shengli; there was nothing she could do to help him.

By the time Li Shengli reached the second floor, he was drenched in sweat, panting heavily, and his legs were trembling.

I had to sit on the steps for a while before I could stand up.

For the rest of the journey, Chen Hao had to carry the child up to the third floor.

After settling Li Shengli in, Chen Hao went back to help Ye Zhao.

Li Tian was too young to help anyone, so she walked carefully and didn't cause them any trouble.

It's just that my grandparents take the apprenticeship ceremony so seriously.

Like a pilgrimage.

Li Tian felt that if she were to lose focus during class, she would feel like she was letting them down.

"Grandma, keep going!"

"Grandma, keep going..."

Having recovered, Li Shengli pulled Li Tian back to his feet.

"Stop shouting. Your grandma isn't a tractor; even if you add gas, it won't move. We'll be there soon."

At this moment, only Ye Zhao's eyes could move freely.

He glared fiercely at Lee Seungri.

Once Ye Zhao came up and was no longer panting, Li Shengli knocked on Zhao Qingping's door.

"Li Tian, ​​what's going on today..."

Before he could even utter the word "late," Zhao Qingping's furious face immediately turned into a smile.

He even stepped forward and shook Li Shengli's hand.

"Why did you come in person? This place has three floors..."

Li Shengli smiled.

"Then why don't you invite us in for a seat?"

"Please come in, please come in..."

With trembling hands, Zhao Qingping opened the door completely and called out Wu Miao loudly.

Zhao Qingping helped Li Shengli into the living room.

Wu Miao, who had rushed over, went to greet Ye Zhao.

I've only met these former leaders during performances to comfort and entertain them; we've never spoken to each other in private.

Zhao Qingping rubbed his hands together, too excited to say anything.

"You two elders came all this way yourself, how can I possibly accept this?"

Lee Seungri smiled and patted the seat next to him.

"We brought our granddaughter here to become your apprentices. There's nothing we can't accept, sir. Please sit down, have a seat."

Ye Zhao accepted the tea from Wu Miao with both hands.

"There are no leaders here today; we are just parents of students who have come to formally become their disciples."

"Li Tian's father is busy, so it's just the two of us old folks who have to make the trip."

Wu Miao was also very excited. As actors, they had met many high-ranking leaders, but they had no personal relationship with them and had no idea that the two of them were so approachable in private.

"We're on the third floor. If we've made you tired, we'd really feel bad."

Ye Zhao took a sip of tea.

"We're alright, we can hold on."

Li Shengli glanced at his watch and said to Zhao Qingping.

"It's already time for class, so let's not chat any longer."

"The wine and tea are Li Tian's gifts to his master; this is a year's tuition. As for the apprenticeship process, Lao Zhao, you can arrange it as you see fit."

Li Shengli took an envelope out of his pocket and placed it in Zhao Qingping's hand.

"There has never been a free pass on of skills; you must accept it."

"Sir, this won't do!"

Zhao Qingping felt the envelope was burning hot.

He genuinely admired Li Tian's beautiful voice, which is why he went to great lengths to take on this young apprentice.

"Not enough?"

Zhao Qingping shook his head vigorously.

"No, how could I complain about it being too little..."

"Do you think there's any other apprenticeship ceremony? How about Li Tian kowtows to you?"

Zhao Qingping was taken aback for a moment, then quickly said.

"Sir, please stop teasing me. We don't need those old rules anymore."

Li Shengli laughed heartily.

"Tian Tian, ​​come here."

Li Tian got off the sofa and stood in front of Li Shengli.

"Bowing to your master."

Li Tian bowed respectfully to Zhao Qingping.

"Greetings, Master."

Zhao Qingping reached out to help him up, and as his master, he had to say a few words.

"Li Tian, ​​you have exceptional talent. You must avoid arrogance and impetuosity, practice your basic skills diligently, and you will surely shine on the biggest stage in the future."

The biggest stage?

The Spring Festival Gala will not be held for several years.

It would be so cool to be on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

"I will follow my master's teachings."

The elderly people nodded in satisfaction; for a five-year-old child to behave like this was already very well-behaved.

"Old Zhao, you guys go to class now, you've worked hard."

Zhao Qingping stood up.

"Please, both of you, have a seat. We're going to class."

Li Tian obediently followed.

Wu Miao didn't know what to talk about, but she couldn't just sit there doing nothing, so she reached out and took out the photo album they often looked at.

He introduced Zhao Qingping's students to Li Shengli and Ye Zhao.

"Old Zhao is getting older and his temper is getting worse. He only has Chen Yufei and Li Tian as his students now, and he said that he will not take on any more students after he finishes teaching Li Tian."

"Our Tian Tian is lucky; she even became their last disciple."

"It's also Old Zhao's luck that he was able to get the most satisfactory student at the last minute."

"He took it back himself."

Ye Zhao knew about the trouble Li Yuanchao and his group had caused the first time they came to make a scene, and she laughed along.

Li Shengli looked at the photos, while Ye Zhao and Wu Miao chatted casually.

It was only during their conversation that Ye Zhao learned that Wu Miao had been a piano tuner before retiring.

Ye Zhao immediately consulted Wu Miao about the piano configuration.

Wu Miao naturally answered all his questions without reservation.

They even compiled a list of piano specifications.

"In terms of sound quality and texture, imported ones are still superior, but domestic ones can also meet general needs."

Wu Miao knew that the Li family wouldn't have to worry about buying any kind of property.

An hour can feel slow, but it can also feel fast.

When Zhao Qingping and his companion came out of the music room, Li Shengli and Ye Zhao also stood up.

Li Shengli reached out his hand.

"Old Zhao, you've worked hard."

Zhao Qingping shook hands with it.

"It's only right to do my best for my own students."

"Then we won't bother you any longer."

"The presence of the esteemed leader is an honor to my humble abode."

Li Shengli smiled and walked towards the door.

Ye Zhao shook hands with Wu Miao to say goodbye.

"Old Wu, come over to my house sometime. Thanks for the piano."

"Sister Ye, you're too kind. I will definitely pay you a visit another day."

As they exited the gate, Zhao Qingping and his companion were about to continue seeing them off when Ye Zhao stopped them.

"We're all elderly people, let's not stand on ceremony. Please, please wait."

Only then did Mr. and Mrs. Zhao Qingping stop insisting on going downstairs.
