Chapter 132 The First Prelude

In the quiet afternoon, the sun shines through the round window in the attic, and there is occasional dust in the air.

The soft and soothing piano sound sounded in the attic.

A young girl sat in front of the piano, her slender fingers flexing on the keys. The simple melody keeps turning, beginning to be a little rusty, then slowly becoming mellow, and finally immersing in it, playing it repeatedly, releasing the faint joy and tranquility in my heart.

After a long time, the throbbing fingers slowly stopped, and as the last note was pressed, the tail sound of the strings slowly echoed in the room and slowly disappeared.

"It sounds good, Lacey." A brisk applause sounded, and a girl with short blond shoulder-length hair stood up from the sofa, walked to the piano, and looked down at the piano score in front of the silver-haired girl.

"Did you write this? Lacey."

"No, I found it from an ancient book." The girl shook her head.

"It's very nice, even I feel very, very good." Lan Lier made a big gesture to describe her feelings.

"Do you have a name?"

Mrs. Filia was also sitting on the sofa, watching the girl playing the keys.

"Well, yes, the name is Prelude, which means prelude." The silver-haired girl replied.

"It's a very good name. It's like butterflies dancing in the shade of summer. It reminds me of the scene when I was a child."

"What was Teacher Filia like when she was a child? Was she talented in music since she was a child?" Lan Li ran over and asked curiously.

"No, I often fought with boys at that time, and I didn't like singing at all. He Lang was beaten and cried by me when he was a child, but it was too embarrassing to talk about it. He kept telling me not to talk nonsense, giggle." Mrs. Leia couldn't help but smile, but it was a pity that Master Helang had already left Hopelander that night, and joined Frost Rose with most of the members of Bailan's Cross Sword.

"Then how did the teacher become a singer later?" Ling Xin was also a little curious.

"Because it's so beautiful." Mrs. Filia recalled before continuing.

"When I was a child, my family was not very wealthy. When I saw the singer wearing a gorgeous dress on the stage, I was very envious. It happened that the Fenghua Opera Troupe was performing in Hopeland. I secretly ran over and asked the staff if I could You can't be a singer."

"At that time, the bearded uncle smiled and asked me to sing a few sentences, and I sang it. He praised me for singing well, but it was not enough, so he gave me a booklet for me to practice, and they will come again next year. ."

"Later, the teacher practiced every day, and then shocked the uncle?" Lan Lier asked speculatively.

"No, how can I work so hard? I looked at the boring practice method in the manual, and gave up after trying to learn for a long time."

"Huh? I thought the teacher was very diligent as a child."

"It was very diligent, but that was later, and I was a little lazy at the beginning."

"How did it change later?" Ling Xin was a little concerned about this.

"Then the church formed a choir, and the girls who sang could get 10 silver coins, which was a huge amount of money for me at the time."

"So I picked it up and practiced again. The pastor in the choir often praised me, so I became more motivated to study later. Slowly, it became a habit to practice singing every day, until I joined Fenghua Opera Troupe and became more famous. "

"Hmm...I thought the teacher was soaring through talent alone." Lan Lier muttered in disappointment.

"There's no such thing as such a good thing, Lan Li. If you don't work hard now, you might be overtaken by your classmates, and you'll be repeated."

Mrs. Filia tapped Langley, who was trying to excuse her laziness.

"I know I'm in the top 50 of my grade, so I won't be embarrassed to repeat it. Don't underestimate me, Teacher Filia."

"Yes, yes, if only you were as good as Ling Xin."

"Wow, teacher, you actually praise others in front of me. This is a taboo for students. I want to tell the dean of the school."

"Go ahead and talk, it's a holiday now, let's see the dean ignore you."

At this time, Mrs. Filia walked up to Lorraine Hill and asked while looking at the sheet music.

"Are you going to sing this song at the festival, Lacey?"

"No, this piece is more suitable to be played alone when there are few people. If I sing it at a festival, I want it to be more lively and uplifting."

"Okay, I believe you will be able to come up with works that everyone loves."

"Well, I will." Lorraine Hill nodded, with a vague look in his heart. The most important purpose of music is to convey feelings, to convey emotions, beliefs and thoughts from the heart, and to move oneself before moving others.

And what did she want to talk about most, past and present, what did she want to convey to others over the years?

This question has been circling her mind in the past few days. Although it was a little vague at first, it has gradually become clear these days.

"It's getting late, Lacey, Ling Xin, we're leaving."

Lan Lier looked at the sun outside the window and said to Mrs. Filia.

"Then let's go today, Miss Filia."

"Okay, be careful on the road, and don't scare the kids."

"I won't, why is the teacher always worried about me?" Lan Li pouted, a little unhappy.

"Teacher, let's go first." Roland Hill and Ling Xin also said hello before leaving.

On the street in the afternoon, three teenage girls sit on horses

On the carriage, there were several insulated boxes inside the carriage, which contained freshly baked bread and snacks. The destination of the carriage was the newly opened nursery in Hopelander.

The kindergarten will raise children who have lost their parents or have a few poor families. This is a new policy of the alliance. The funds are provided by the alliance guild and proposed by Roland Hill.

In addition to the kindergarten and schools, the schools in Verga were very expensive before, they were all privately run, and most of them only taught arithmetic, writing, and some laws and regulations. However, the newly established school is different. The guild will bear most of the expenses, and the subjects taught are also very complete, not only mathematics, Chinese, philosophy, law, business and trade, but also organize student training at ordinary times, so that they have good discipline and foundation. Military literacy.

Lorraine Hill has always believed that education can truly change a person or even a nation or country, making it move in a better direction.

"It's here." Lan Li'er looked at the door outside the carriage window, then pushed open the door, and walked down with the suitcase in her arms.

Lorraine Hill and Ling Xin carried the box and walked down. Mrs. Filia told them before that they should not use extraordinary power, which would scare children and cause some bad things.

"Come one by one, don't rob"

Lan Lier was surrounded by children, and Ling Xin was ready to go over to help, handing out fluffy bread.

Loren Hill sat on a wooden chair under the shade of the tree, watching the group of children chatting and chasing playfully, all kinds of the past came to mind, and slowly recalled his childhood dream.

So innocent and pure.
