Siheyuan: Mastery started in the 50s

Wang Qiang nodded, his tone firm, "Teacher Ran, don't worry, I will do my best to get a good grade."

Teacher Ran nodded with satisfaction, and then asked Wang Qiang to sit down. Ran Qiuye also brought a pot of hot tea. Several people sat in the living room, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious. Teacher Ran began to ask Wang Qiang about his recent work. Wang Qiang answered one by one, and also humbly asked Teacher Ran some questions about his skills.

"Qiangzi, you must have encountered some difficulties in the workshop recently, right?" Teacher Ran asked thoughtfully while drinking tea.

Wang Qiang nodded, with a hint of seriousness in his tone, "Yes, Mr. Ran. Especially when facing new materials and new processing methods, I find that my experience is not enough. Sometimes I encounter some difficult problems and I don’t know how to solve them."

Teacher Ran put down his teacup, pondered for a while, and then slowly said: "The locksmith industry is not only based on skills and experience, but more importantly, mentality and thinking. When you encounter a problem, don't rush to solve it. Calm down and analyze the root cause of the problem. Many times, the problem is not in the technology, but in your understanding of the entire process."

Wang Qiang listened carefully, thinking about what Teacher Ran said. He knew that what Teacher Ran said was not just technical guidance, but also a teaching of work attitude. This attitude is exactly what he needs to learn and improve in his future work. "I will remember your words. When I encounter problems in the future, I will deal with them more calmly and patiently." Wang Qiang said seriously, his tone full of respect.

Teacher Ran smiled. He knew that Wang Qiang was a diligent student. With such an attitude, he would have a promising future. He nodded and said softly, "I feel relieved that you have this mentality. Remember, the competition is just a process. No matter what the result is, the most important thing is what you have learned in the process."

Wang Qiang nodded deeply, and his respect for Teacher Ran became even stronger. He felt that Teacher Ran was not only his technical mentor, but also a beacon on his life path, guiding him to keep moving forward.

Time passed quickly and it was almost dusk. Wang Qiang stood up to say goodbye. Teacher Ran nodded, told him to take care of himself, and asked him to come back after the game.

When Wang Qiang walked out of Teacher Ran's house, he was filled with strength. He knew that he had been recognized by Teacher Ran, which was not only an affirmation of his skills, but also an invisible encouragement, motivating him to go all out in the next competition and meet all challenges.

Wang Qiang rode his bicycle, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on his back, and he felt full of strength. On the way back to the courtyard, Wang Qiang kept thinking about the teachings of Teacher Ran. He knew that this was not just a competition, but an important step in his career. Although the road ahead was unknown, he was ready to face everything in the best possible state.

Recently, Wang Qiang's life has become particularly fulfilling, and he is full of energy and expectations every day. Since he was recognized by Teacher Ran, he seems to have found unprecedented motivation. Whether it is work or preparation for competitions, he feels an irrepressible excitement in his chest, which makes him full of confidence and vision for the future.

The morning sun shone into the room through the window, and he was in a surprisingly good mood. He stretched himself and felt the refreshment brought by a good night's sleep. Today is a special day. He and Ran Qiuye made an appointment to go shopping together and chat about their recent moods. This is the leisure time they haven't had for a long time, and Wang Qiang is full of expectations. Wang Qiang changed into casual clothes, stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself. He felt that he was in a particularly good mental state today. He smiled and said to himself: "Wang Qiang, today will definitely be a good day."

When Wang Qiang went out, the air in the early morning was still a little cool. People were coming and going on the streets, and the neighbors in the courtyard had started their busy lives early. Wang Qiang rode his bicycle, thinking about the past with Ran Qiuye, and a smile rose unconsciously at the corner of his mouth. Although they have always been friends, he recently found that his feelings for Ran Qiuye seemed different, and this feeling made him nervous and excited.

When Wang Qiang arrived at Ran Qiuye's house, he just stopped his bicycle and saw Ran Qiuye standing at the door waiting for him. She was wearing a simple dress today, with her hair simply draped over her shoulders, looking particularly fresh and natural. When she saw Wang Qiang coming, she smiled warmly.

"Wang Qiang, you came so early." Ran Qiuye said with a smile, with a mischievous gleam in her eyes.

Wang Qiang scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said with a smile: "I don't want to keep you waiting too long. It's better to come earlier. We have plenty of time today." He nodded, "Then let's go. Where do you want to go today?"

Wang Qiang thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Let's go to the old street. There's a new bookstore that opened there recently. I heard the environment inside is pretty good. We can go there to read some books and have a cup of tea."

When Ran Qiuye heard this, her eyes lit up with joy. "Great, I've heard of that bookstore a long time ago, but I never had the chance to go there. Today is a good time to go and take a look."

The two walked side by side on the street, the sun shining on them, reflecting their relaxed and happy smiles. Along the way, they chatted about each other's recent situation, and Wang Qiang felt unusually relaxed. The time spent with Ran Qiuye always made him feel particularly relaxed and happy, as if all his troubles were left behind.

"Wang Qiang, you seem to be in a particularly good mood recently. Is it because the competition is coming soon?" Ran Qiuye asked with a smile as they walked, with concern in her tone.

Wang Qiang was slightly stunned. "Yes, I am in a good mood recently. The competition is certainly a reason, but I think the more important thing is that I feel that I am making continuous progress and have been recognized by Teacher Ran. This is a great encouragement to me. A gentle light flashed in his eyes. "Teacher Ran has always been strict with his skills. To be recognized by him shows that you are really amazing. You have to continue to maintain this state. I believe you will achieve good results in the competition. "

Wang Qiang felt warm in his heart when he heard Ran Qiuye's encouragement. He nodded gently and said with a smile: "Thank you, Qiuye. With your support, I feel more confident. He said softly: "You have been working hard all the time, and everyone has seen it. I believe you can do your best."

The two chatted as they walked and arrived at the bookstore on the old street. The bookstore was not big, but the entrance was very elegantly decorated. Through the French windows, one could see neatly arranged bookshelves and several comfortable sofas inside. There were also several classical paintings hanging on the wall. The whole environment seemed peaceful and comfortable.
