Chapter 465: No Fondness for Even His Own Mother
It turned out that Wei Hongyan’s maternal family had some connections, suggesting she should learn a musical instrument or take up vocal music or dance lessons. If she mastered a skill, they would help her join the performance troupe in a few years.
Wei Hongyan’s dream was to stand on stage. Knowing that Ning Xueling had several classmates working at the music academy, Wei Zixiong wanted her classmates to help introduce some teachers.
Unfortunately, Wei Hongyan’s natural ability was quite poor. She wasn’t fit for dance, she lacked talent for musical instruments, so they thought that if all else failed, she could opt for vocal music.
They felt Wei Hongyan sang alright, but it was a pity that the teacher today didn’t think she was a rough diamond and even considered her to be slow on the uptake, not material worth shaping, and so declined politely.
Wei Hongyan said this while casting a glance at Ning Xueling, who was sitting off to the side: "What kind of people are you introducing? They clearly didn’t give a damn about facesaving, just a waste of our time."
Hearing Wei Hongyan’s words, Ning Xueling responded: "It was just an introduction. You have no talent yourself, and you blame me? You really have some nerve."
Seeing they were about to start arguing again, Wei Zixiong had to say, "Enough, it’s not such a big deal. We’ll just look for another teacher later, maybe we can even find a better one."
Ning Xueling had endured quite a bit of mistreatment at the Wei Family over the past few months and was already feeling frustrated when her own children treated her this way today, so she didn’t offer Wei Hongyan any kind words.
