Chapter 969 Then You Go to See the Snow (8)
but
She went to attend the premium class with great joy, but when she saw the teacher, her face turned green.
Not for anything else, but for the teacher named Xia Dongyin.
"Moli, you're almost here. I've saved a seat in the front for you." A girl who was learning ukulele with Qiu Moli waved to her.
Xia Dongyin, who was preparing to teach on the stage, looked up at Qiu Moli, then lowered his head and started tuning.
Qiu Moli politely declined the seat her friend had reserved for her: "No, my niece is here today to attend the class, and there's only one seat left. We can just sit in the back."
As he said this, he pulled Zhou Jinqiu and wanted to sit in the seat closest to the back.
Just as she turned around, Xia Dongyin moved. He put down the piano in his hand, walked to the front row, knocked on the corner of the table and said to a student, "Move to the side. There's an empty seat next to it. One more person can sit there."
Qiu Moli continued walking forward as if she hadn't heard what was said.
"Come sit here. Today I'm going to teach you the fingering technique that you haven't mastered despite trying so many times." There was no emotion in Xia Dongyin's voice, but it was inexplicably attractive - directed at Qiu Moli.
Zhou Jinqiu suddenly noticed that her usually confident and calm aunt seemed a little stiff. She pulled her hand and suggested, "Aunt, why don't we sit over there?"
Perhaps it was because her niece gave Qiu Moli the stairs to sit down, so she sat in the seat "designated" by Xia Dongyin.
Before class, Xia Dongyin introduced his name first.
No one else reacted, but Zhou Jinqiu, who usually liked to read, was a little surprised: "Huh? This name?"
Her voice was soft, but because she was close to Xia Dongyin, he heard it. He looked up at Zhou Jinqiu and asked, "Student, do you think there is something wrong with my name?"
"No, no!" Zhou Jinqiu waved his hands quickly, "I just think your name sounds nice, Teacher."
"Nice to hear? It seems that's all you know!" Xia Dongyin's tone was a little lonely, but the expression on his face remained indifferent.
But these words sounded really unpleasant, and Qiu Moli immediately defended her, saying, "Xia, what are you talking about? Who are you looking down on?"
"I don't look down on anyone!" No one knew that Xia Dongyin's right hand behind his back was trembling slightly - this was the first time Jasmine spoke to him after they met again after many years.
"Xiao Qiuqiu, don't be afraid. If there is any problem with this name, just tell me. Your aunt will support you. He won't dare to do anything to you!" Qiu Moli gently pushed Zhou Jinqiu, allowing him to speak boldly.
Qiu Moli's friends usually saw her gentle appearance, but now seeing her being so aggressive, they advised: "Moli, why don't you just forget it? Teacher Xia didn't say anything!"
Qiu Moli insisted that Zhou Jinqiu speak out.
"Auntie, forget it!" Zhou Jinqiu hesitated, but Qiu Moli's eyes were very persistent. There was really no other way, so he could only say, "Moli is also known as Manhua.
(mán huā) A term used in Buddhist scriptures, as jasmine is often woven into garlands for offering to Buddha. The Shurangama Sutra states: "Garlands of flowers and fragrance, blooming in summer and disappearing in winter."
"So, his name matches my aunt's name quite well. Jasmine's habit is to grow in summer and hide in winter." The more Zhou Jinqiu spoke, the lower his head became, because Qiu Moli's eyes suddenly became sharp.
Xia Dongyin had actually heard of this story many years ago, but Qiu Moli himself didn't know it. Now that her niece had revealed the meaning of it, for a moment he felt that this little girl was really his matchmaker.
Qiu Moli: (☉д⊙)? What’s going on? I seem to have done something stupid and embarrassing. But then again, does that guy surnamed Xia really have this meaning in his name?
Ok!
Facing Xia Dongyin's surprised expression, Qiu Moli was now very sure that her Qiuqiu's explanation must be correct.
With a light cough, Qiu Moli pretended to be impatient and said, "Okay, everyone knows the meaning of your name, teacher. You can teach now!"
"Okay!" Xia Dongyin's enthusiasm for teaching obviously increased, changing his cold attitude just now.
The class passed quickly, and when it was time to end, Qiu Moli stood up and pulled Zhou Jinqiu to leave the classroom.
"Moli, although you have just learned the fingering techniques, you may not remember them very well. Let's add each other on WeChat. You can ask me anytime if you have any questions." After saying that, Xia Dongyin showed her QR code.
If it was any other teacher, Qiu Moli would have agreed, but for Xia Dongyin, she wasn't in the mood: "No, thank you! I've already learned it."
"Actually, this is my original WeChat ID. Just add me back!" Xia Dongyin was quite direct. He looked as if he was afraid that others didn't know that he and Qiu Moli were "acquaintances."
Many people who did not leave the classroom began to check on them, and Qiu Moli finally added Xia Dongyin back on WeChat.
