Chapter 54: Xiaoru gets married
Without waiting for Teacher Li to speak again, Yan Gu pointed to Kang Kang's painting and said, "Teacher Li, look, Kang Kang painted you this time." ”
Teacher Li lowered his head again, Kang Kang drew very fast, and his basic hands did not stop, not only did he keep his hands, but he also muttered in his mouth: Uncle.
In just a few minutes, Mr. Li's face was already half on the paper, and his glasses were on the paper on his eyes, and he was now drawing his nose.
Teacher Li smiled: "This kid can grasp the characteristics of the characters at once, my high cheekbones have been drawn by him, this is the first time I have close contact with Kangkang, it's not simple, it's amazing." ”
Yan Gu said: "Since Kang Kang has this ability, can we ask you to teach him well." ”
Teacher Li said: "Kangkang's posture of holding the pen and painting posture are not correct, when painting, you should stand or sit, not lie on your stomach, and you need professional tools and professional pens. Paper, I suggest to Kang Kang to make a suitable drawing stand and drawing board for him, and then need to buy some sketching paper and pen, I can temporarily guide the child, correct the child's posture and pen holding mistakes, according to the current level of Kang Kang, or I won't be able to teach for a long time, you can also inquire now, see if you can find a better and more professional teacher, I also help to ask, can't bury this child's talent, what do you think?"
Kang Kang had finished painting Mr. Li, and he didn't want to paint now, so he went to pull his sister's hand and went to play again, so his sister pulled him away.
Mr. Li picked up his avatar and said with a smile: "It's not worse than what I painted, at least five points like it, great!"
Before leaving, Mr. Li smiled and said, "I took this work of Kang Kang with me, and I put it under the glass plate of my desk." ”
It was a small, gridded piece of paper torn from my sister's homework book.
A few days later, Kang Kang had his own special bench, easel, pen and paper, all of which were tailor-made by his grandfather and asked the village carpenter. Mr. Li ran home when he was free, Kang Kang is not a healthy and intellectually sound child after all, most of his mind is still playing, unless he is happy, Mr. Li can teach him for a while, Kang Kang is very slow to learn in other aspects, but in painting is a teaching, a little bit of pass, not a few times he can sit there and paint, learn a variety of pen usage and skills, painting level has been rapidly improved.
Kang Kang's painting has several characteristics: one is that he does not play with a work until it is completed, and whoever he talks about when he paints must be who he paints. Even if the person is not at the scene, Kang Kang draws the expressions of the characters vividly based on memory alone. Although his eyes squinted, it did not delay his accuracy in capturing the characteristics of the characters at all.
Mr. Li said with emotion: "Kangkang's eyes are more accurate than the camera, and his little head can also remember accurately." Okay, that's the end of this bit of ink in my belly, you should find a better and more professional teacher for your child, I'm really poor in donkey skills. ”
The painting teacher was not found for the time being, the reason was that Kang Kang was too young to stay away from home, and there was no good art teacher nearby, so this matter was put down temporarily, and Kang Kang relied on his own mood, and when he wanted to paint, he concentrated on painting there, and played when he didn't want to.
Everyone in the family has their own portrait, and there is more than one, Kang Kang painted the most is the uncle, Kang Kang painted each uncle is a dull and godless expression, the image of the rest of the family is smiling and various expressions, at first just the appearance is very similar, as Kang Kang paints more and more, everyone's facial expressions are more colorful, and more and more realistic.
Especially the portraits of grandpa and grandma, every wrinkle on their faces is vividly expressed, and the honest smile seems to bloom right in front of them.
Grandpa held his portrait and kept 'tsk' in his mouth, probably due to the low level of education, he couldn't find the right words to describe Kangkang's paintings for more than a dozen 'tsk'.
Sister Xiaoru simply helped Kang Kang wholesale a large stack of sketch paper, and said to Aunt Yan: "Let Kang Kang paint well, I will pack the things I need for painting." ”
Grandpa Zhang, who is usually not good at speaking, saw his portrait and said in a loud voice: "Good, good, the painting is too similar." Then he said to his grandfather very generously: "When I am a hundred years old, take this portrait and make me a posthumous portrait." ”
The old man has no children and no daughters in his life, and he has long seen life and death very lightly, and he has never shied away from anything.
Grandpa said, "Uncle, what are you talking about, you, live well, it's not a problem for you to live to be 100 years old." ”
Grandpa Zhang smiled, and then said, "Just this happy family can also make me feel good and eat well." ”
Sister Xiaoru and Shengzi's wedding date is getting closer and closer, Shengzi is happy to take the initiative to greet everyone he sees every day, even the guests who eat in the store are waiting with a smile on his face, and the guests all say: This shop owner is born optimistic, the smile on his face has never fallen, just with this enthusiasm, boss!
Just the day before my birthday, my grandfather and Sister Xiaoru's father, mother and youngest brother came from their hometown in Hunan.
In our hometown, children are generally not given birthdays, grandpa knew the mind of his father-in-law, that day deliberately set up two tables at home, one is to welcome grandpa and Xiaoru sister parents and younger brother, and the other is to give me a grand birthday.
That day, I sat on my grandfather's left and my sister on the right, looking at my grandfather who was elated, and my mother was also very happy, and I hadn't seen him for a few years. The last time my grandfather and I saw him, there was almost no change, except that he was in a happy mood, talked a little more, and drank a lot of wine.
The wedding date is just a few days away. Shengzi's family is already ready to welcome the bride, the house is still the same as before, Shengzi originally said to borrow a little more money to build the house, Sister Xiaoru disagreed, saying that good steel is used on the blade, and the house will be built after saving enough money for a while, and it is not too late to build it, and it is very good now.
Shengzi is not idle, as long as he is free, he will clean up his home, the whitewash, the shop, the repair, the house and the outside of the house suddenly look new, Shengzi Niang wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said to herself: "Shengzi has changed, it has really changed, the lazy boy who didn't help up when the vinegar bottle was poured before has become diligent, and the bad boy who causes trouble everywhere has become better." ”
The wedding was held as scheduled, the two families were a few hundred meters apart, and Katsuko also walked around the village like an uncle before taking Sister Xiaoru to her home.
Sister Xiaoru was also very beautiful that day, Aunt Yan didn't know much about makeup, everything was made up with the help of the third sister of Yan Gu, and the third sister's makeup skills were still very good. Maybe it's because of my average appearance, so I want to use makeup to make up for my congenital shortcomings, so I practice makeup so well.
It is said that our family should also have a big banquet, just like marrying a daughter to invite relatives and friends, Shengzi simply said to Sister Xiaoru: "Why do you spend so many things, my family is in charge, how lively it is to sit together, at most add a few tables." In this way, the two families merged into one family, and they all had a wedding banquet at Katsuko's house.
Shengzi's friends from the rivers and lakes also came, more than 20 people who shouted five and drank six, Short Hei, Brother Gang and Senior Brother were all present, Short Hei did not sit with those friends that day, but sat at the table of our house, he sat on the left side of the uncle, chatted with Aunt Yan from time to time, and drank several glasses of wine with the uncle.
The bridegroom and bride came to toast, today's Katsuko is really radiant, he is in his thirties and is almost a comparison with a twenty-year-old young man, wearing a well-fitting suit and a red tie, with a smile on his face that cannot be erased, and toasting relatives and friends from table to table.
They first toasted their grandfather at their table, and Shengzi called Sister Xiaoru's parents in Mandarin, which was still not very proficient: "Dad, Mom, you have worked hard, you old people can rest assured, Xiaoru has arrived at my house, she is the Buddha, and I offer it every day." After a while, Xiaoru and I will go back to see you. Come, I respect my father and mother, and I wish you good health!"
Sister Xiaoru's parents all smiled and drank, and our family was also at this table, Shengzi and Sister Xiaoru called their parents' second aunt and uncle-in-law, and when Shengzi called his second aunt and uncle-in-law, he still slightly revealed a little embarrassed. Before I knew it, he was a generation lower in our family.
It was grandpa's turn to be at the table, Katsuko saluted his grandparents first, grandpa just smiled and didn't speak, Katsuko shouted softly: Grandpa. Sister Xiaoru next to her glanced at Katsuko with unhappy eyes. Shengzi felt Sister Xiaoru's unkind gaze, and Shengzi immediately smiled and shouted loudly: Grandpa and grandma eat and drink well!
When the wine was poured again, it was time for Uncle and Aunt Yan to come here, Shengzi held the wine glass and shouted in his mouth: "Fourth brother, come, it's time for the two of us." Before the words fell, he already felt that he had said something wrong, and before he could change his words, he was lightly punched by Sister Xiaoru on the waist.
Shengzi immediately changed his words: "Fourth uncle, don't be surprised, get used to it, get used to it, I was still calling my grandparents just now, and I forgot it in a blink of an eye, I'm so happy." Hehe, what do you mean to get carried away, I am. I apologized to the fourth uncle, and I punished myself with three cups. ”
Sister Xiaoru said, "Have you forgotten what you said?"
Katsuko said: "I haven't forgotten, wait for me to brew the words again, hehe." ”
Shengzi put the wine glass on both hands, and his facial expression became much more solemn, only to hear him say seriously: "Fourth uncle, Shengzi has not read much since he was a child, he has been mixed in the rivers and lakes early, and he has done a lot of bastard things without seeking progress, and he has insulted you, the fourth uncle has not counted the past suspicions, and introduced me to such a good daughter-in-law, I Shengzi will not say anything grateful, I respect you and the fourth aunt from the bottom of my heart for this glass of wine, the fourth aunt, help the fourth uncle to bring it up." ”
Sister Xiaoru said: "Aunt Yan, bring it up to the little uncle, what Shengzi said is all confidant, and I didn't teach him, he told me more than once, saying that he had found a suitable opportunity to thank the little uncle." Aunt Yan, come!" said the wine glass and raised it in front of him.
Yan Gu gently supported the uncle's right arm, the uncle reached out and fumbled for the wine glass, and then also stopped in the air, Shengzi and Xiao Ru raised their necks and drank the wine in the toast, and when they finished drinking, the uncle did not wait for Yan Gu to make a hint of action, and drank the wine himself, Yan Gu was stunned at first, and then drank the wine too.
Katsuko immediately poured the wine and said, "There are two glasses left, I will drink it myself, we are all a family from now on, Katsuko I am happy!"
