Chapter 1253 1255 [Three views are inconsistent]
In the second half of 2021, Xiang Nan had already mastered the three major painting types of oil painting, watercolor painting, and gouache painting, and he painted very well.
He even painted a watercolor portrait for each of the 30 students in Zhang Xueer's class, which made the students and parents like it very much. She even wanted to sign up to learn painting from Xiang Nan.
Because, in June 2021, the Off-campus Education and Training Supervision Department was formally established, announcing the end of the era of barbaric development of off-campus training institutions.
A large number of off-campus training institutions were shut down, leaving students with nowhere to go for a while.
Therefore, parents want to enroll in an interest class. First, let the children learn more skills and improve their overall quality; second, they also want to find someone to watch the children. After all, the children leave school at four o'clock, and it is really worrying if there is no adult watching. .
For this, Xiang Nan naturally declined.
He is now worth more than one billion, and he is not happy to let him be the king of children.
Besides, he has already mastered western painting, and it is time to learn other skills, and he has no time to teach children.
…
After mastering western painting, Xiang Nan learned musical instruments next.
He wants to learn the violin.
Because he felt from a young age that people who can play the violin are particularly temperamental.
But the violin is one of the most difficult Western musical instruments. Although Xiang Nan already knows how to play the flute, pipa, guzheng, piano, and guitar, his sense of music and intonation are very good.
But when I first started playing the violin, it still felt like I was sawing wood, and I couldn’t even find the pitch.
Fortunately, they live in a detached villa, and fortunately Xiang Nan has money, so he installed a soundproof piano room for himself. Otherwise, if you live in an ordinary building, you may be approached by neighbors after two days of practice.
…
"Husband, why do you have to learn the violin?" Zhang Xueer asked with a smile.
In fact, Xiang Nan already plays the piano very well, and he also plays the guitar well. With these two instruments, he can basically travel around the world.
"You have to challenge the difficulty in life." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Because it is difficult, I have to learn more."
It takes a long time to learn the violin. If in the real world, he would never waste two or three years just to learn one instrument.
But this is a mission world, and there is plenty of time. He has plenty of time to do what he likes.
Zhang Xueer nodded. She appreciates Xiang Nan's spirit of daring to challenge the high difficulty.
…
In the second half of 2022, after a year of training, Xiang Nan was finally able to play the violin decently instead of sawing wood.
In the same year, with his efforts, Zhang Xueer finally succeeded in conceiving a baby.
In 2023, Xiang Nan was already able to play "Chaconne", "Ninth Sonata", "24th Capriccio" and other repertoires that are recognized as the most difficult for violin, and thus successfully graduated from the teacher.
In the same year, Zhang Xueer also gave birth to a baby bunny.
After the two discussed, they finally named their son Zhong Ming.
The so-called bell ringing Dingshi, that is the ostentation of the nobles. And the long ringing of the alarm bell also has the meaning of introspection.
Xiang Nan took the opportunity to ask Zhang Xueer to resign and concentrate on teaching his son at home.
"My son can't live without you, and I can't live without you, so you just resign." He tentatively suggested.
"However, there are so many children waiting for me in school." Zhang Xueer declined.
"The son is still waiting for you at home." Xiang Nan persuaded, "Look how pitiful he is, you have the heart to leave him at home? Don't you miss him?"
"Don't you still have you at home, besides my parents, and confinement nanny, I don't necessarily have to stay." Zhang Xueer waved her hand.
"How can confinement sister-in-law take your place? Can she care as much about the child as you do?" Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Besides, you know that I am always clumsy. If the child is dropped by me , I choked on it, I caught a cold, what should I do?"
"After all, you mean I want me to stay at home and be a housewife?" Zhang Xueer said angrily.
"What's wrong with being a housewife? With our current wealth, we can enjoy life at home. Why do you ask for trouble and insist on going to work?
Are other people's children more important than your own? Xiang Nan asked incomprehension.
It is understandable to go to work for the sake of living. But their family is already rich now. After Xiang Nan's investment, one billion has become two billion.
Even in Jiangzhou City, where there are many millionaires, Xiang Nan can be called the top of the pyramid. The money in my hand can't be spent in two lifetimes.
"How can you say that, children from other people's families, children from my own family, are all children to me." Zhang Xueer plausibly said, "I can teach dozens of children at school, but I can only teach one at home. Child. Can't you tell which is more important?"
"Those dozens of children, no matter how well you teach them, they are still their children. They will only call you [Mr. Zhang], not [Mom].
Moreover, if you don't go to school, the school will have other teachers to replace you. But, you are Zhong Ming's biological mother, can you be replaced? You can't tell which is more important. "Xiang Nan retorted.
"I am the head teacher of the children, and I am the only one who knows them best. Can any other teacher take over my job? But Zhong Ming has you, grandparents, confinement nanny, and you can all do my job well. "Zhang Xueer insisted,
"Zhong Yi, you have forgotten what you said to me before. You said that your ideal is to teach and educate people, but now that you have money, you have completely forgotten your previous ideal."
"You are really an angel educator~" Xiang Nan couldn't help but sneered.
Neglecting one's own child in order to educate other children. This approach is hard for him to understand.
…
In the next period of time, Xiang Nan and Zhang Xueer quarreled several times over work matters.
Zhang Xueer is not only busy with school work, but also often visits the students' homes, so she spends very little time with him and the children.
Xiang Nan feels that he and his son are getting less and less valued, and his mood is getting more and more lost.
In order to cheer up and vent his grievances, he specially bought an adze, chisel, ax, saw, and a lot of wood, and learned to do carpentry at home.
Xiang Nan's uncle was a carpenter before, and he made tables, stools, cabinets, beds, etc. for people.
Around the new century, self-made furniture is no longer popular, and married women pay attention to combined furniture. As a result, his business can only stop, which is a pity.
Xiang Nan still remembers that when he was a child, he made himself a small cart out of wood, and it was fun to pull it up and down. So I wanted to learn carpentry as well, and do it for my son in the future.
So he invited an old technician to come to the house to teach the craft.
After less than a year of study, he already knows how to make furniture, carve wood, turn beads, make toys, and often put his works on the Internet. Over time, he has become a super Internet celebrity with more than one million fans.
After changing all the furniture in the villa, and even replacing his son’s toys with solid wood, Xiang Nan also learned the art of woodwork.
