There was a dance class on Tuesday afternoon. Xi Xi carried her little dancing shoes and walked briskly to the student art center for class. After greeting a few familiar friends, Xi Xi and Yang Luoqi gathered together. The two girls whispered to each other as they changed their shoes.
At this time, Xia Suqing, the teacher of the lower grade dance class, walked in.
"Hello, teacher!" There were still many polite children who greeted her one after another.
"Hello, change your shoes first and put your things away. There's no rush! Class hasn't started yet. "Xia Suqing comforted the nervous children.
She looked around and found Xi Xi in the crowd.
"Yang Xi, please come out with the teacher for a moment." Xia Suqing smiled and waved at Xi Xi.
"The teacher is calling me!" Xi Xi and Yang Luoqi looked at each other in surprise and quickly followed the teacher's footsteps.
Xia Suqing brought Xi Xi to her office. At this time, there were no teachers left in the office. They either went to class or had already gone back early. Therefore, Xia Suqing had no scruples. She smiled and said, "Yang Xi, the teacher didn't know that you had learned to dance before, and you danced very well. No wonder your comprehension was so high when you learned folk dance from the teacher!"
Xi Xi looked at her in confusion. She didn't know what the teacher wanted to say.
"The teacher only saw the video of you dancing this dance this weekend." Xia Suqing danced the basic steps of the Seve shuffle dance on the spot.
Xi Xi understood this time. She smiled shyly at the teacher. "Hehe, Teacher Xia, I danced it!"
Xia Suqing didn't beat around the bush. She went straight to the point and said, "Yang Xi, since you can dance so well, our school will have a dance competition in December. Can the teacher sign you up?"
"Competition? "Xi Xi's gaze shifted back from a piece of art at the side. She had accidentally spaced out just now and asked in a daze.
"Yes, it's a competition where all the kids in school who like to dance compete together. Of course, it's also divided into lower grades and upper grades. You'll compete with your classmates from the first, second, and third grades to see who can dance the best!" Xia Suqing smiled as she continued, "If you agree, I'm prepared to combine the dance that you performed on the video with the folk dance that we're learning and rearrange it before submitting it to the competition."
This time, Xi Xi listened carefully and understood what the teacher meant.
"A dancing competition?" Xi Xi asked in surprise. "Teacher Xia, will there be a great prize?"
Xi Xi was not a competitive child. However, she was still very interested in competitions because her concept of competitions was limited to the handicraft competition she had participated in during the parent-child activities in kindergarten. She always felt that there was a possibility of winning a prize by participating in a competition. Xi Xi was not a collector of rankings. She only liked to collect prizes.
Even if it was just a little red flower, it would be fine!
"Yes, if you win, there will be a prize." Xia Suqing nodded and said hesitantly.
Xia Suqing found it hard to say because she remembered that the prizes for the first, second, third, and even the winners' prizes were all notebooks … notebooks of different specifications. At most, the top three would get a certificate as a souvenir …
"Hehe, okay then! I want to participate, I want a prize! "Xi Xi replied energetically.
Xia Suqing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
Xi Xi was willing to participate in the competition and she signed up as Xi Xi's instructor. If Xi Xi got a good result, she, as the dance teacher, would also benefit from it.
Although Xia Suqing was indeed a little selfish, she was not selfish. She just wanted to get a good result so that she could get a higher bonus at the end of the year. If she could get a higher salary, that would be great!
…
After returning home, Murphy heard Yang Yi relay Xi Xi's words and asked in surprise, "You're going to participate in the school's dance competition?"
Xi Xi had just jumped onto the sofa to play with her brother. When she heard her mother's question, she was leaning her head against the back of the sofa and kicking her little feet on the soft sofa. She held her belly and stuck out her little butt. After a while, she rolled over and looked at her mother with her fluffy hair. She smiled and said, "Yes!"
"My baby is also participating in the competition!" Murphy walked over and hugged Xi Xi intimately. She kissed her on the forehead and said with some emotion, "Time flies. When I was young, I also participated in the competition. It feels like it was only yesterday and now it's your turn!"
"Mom also participated in the competition?" Xi Xi asked curiously.
"Yes, about the same as you. Mom was still in the United States at that time. When she was young, she participated in many competitions, such as dancing, singing, and playing the violin. She even appeared on TV because of it, but it was only on a small local TV station." Murphy smiled.
"Mom is so amazing!" Xi Xi looked at her mother in surprise. "Mom, do you have a lot of awards?"
"Not a lot, hehe. I just put a cabinet in your grandpa's house." Murphy said proudly, "I forgot to show it to you when I went back last time."
"I want a lot of awards too." Xi Xi was envious.
"It doesn't matter if you don't get an award. The competition is about participation. Xi Xi, don't put too much pressure on yourself. " Yang Yi walked over and glanced at Murphy. He said in a reproachful tone, "Mom, don't mislead Xi Xi. What's the point of participating in so many competitions?"
Murphy didn't care about Yang Yi's reproach. She even winked at Xi Xi and whispered in Xi Xi's ear, "PaPa is unhappy. I'll show it to you when we go to grandpa's house next time!"
"Okay, okay!" Xixi's eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.
"By the way, Xi Xi, when is your competition?" Murphy asked with interest. "Mom is going to watch and cheer for you."
Murphy even waved her fist, which made Xi Xi excited.
"Teacher Xia said that it's December, but I don't know when …" Xi Xi recalled and said, "I'll ask the teacher tomorrow!"
There was a dance class tomorrow.
"December?" Murphy hesitated.
She would be busy in December because she would release a new album at the end of November. December was the intensive promotion period.
However, Murphy saw Xi Xi's expectant eyes. She touched her head and said with a smile, "Well, Mom will go. You go and ask the teacher first to confirm when the competition is. Mom asked Aunt Xiaojuan to arrange the time so that we can watch your competition on this day! "
"Okay! Mom and PaPa will come to watch my competition. "Xi Xi danced with joy.
"Dad will definitely go. You can rest assured." Although Yang Yi didn't want Xi Xi to participate in too many competitions, he still wanted to watch his daughter's competition. At this time, he solemnly promised.
