Chapter 224 - 216: Change
Tian Sisi neatly put away her clothes and the doll, yet she felt uncomfortable and overwhelmed with frustration. No, she had to vent her anger, or it would suffocate her. Sigh, she decided to play the guzheng instead!
The guzheng was placed in her room. Tian Sisi lit a plate of calming incense, put on the tortoiseshell finger guards, and after a moment of concentration, she started playing "Lin Chong’s Night Escape". This piece was somewhat similar to "General Order", both being majestic and broad, very fitting for expressing the current emotions of Tian Sisi.
Zhang Mingliu once said that if you’re in a bad mood, you should play some soothing melodies to calm yourself. However, Tian Sisi disagreed, believing that it was more appropriate to play powerful pieces to vent her frustration!
After the slow first section, Tian Sisi’s fingers sped up, and the rapid melody flowed from her slender fingertips. Tian Xinhua walked in and saw the young girl intently playing, lips pursed. He smiled and found a chair to sit down.
After finishing the piece, Tian Sisi felt much less frustrated and a bit better. She glanced at Tian Xinhua without saying a word, then continued to play "Spring Creek Flowing Spring", a bright and lively tune that immediately filled the room.
When Tian Sisi finally finished playing, Tian Xinhua asked with a smile, "What happened? Who upset our Ah Nan?"
"It was Third Aunt and Tian Lili. From last night till this morning I’ve sighed endlessly!" Tian Sisi pouted and frowned deeply.
"You could hang a bottle on that pout. Just listen and let it go; after all, they’ll only be here for half a month and then they’re gone."
Tian Xinhua also disliked Xu Jingwen and her daughter. They were petty and liked to take small advantages, truly embarrassing their Uncle. Thankfully, Brother Zhonghua and Wei Hua weren’t like Xu Jingwen, otherwise their uncle would truly be without successors.
"But they’re still staying here for half a month! Last night, Tian Lili messed up my wardrobe and made my bed look like a dog’s nest. Just now, Third Aunt even asked me to give my doll to Tian Lili. Brother Xin Hua, I’m so annoyed!"
