Chapter 5: Seeking Revenge
Siqing still wanted to think about it, but Meng Huai'an had already instructed Xiu'e to get his tools, and Xiu'e didn't dare to disobey and took the paper, pen and ink.
Huai'an shoved the things into her hand, made a gesture of please, and without saying a word, found a wall with a slightly higher foundation, stepped on the stone slab again, and finally turned it out this time.
He went without a trace, Siqing helplessly helped him with this, and he was idle anyway.
Spreading out the paper, she recognized that this was raw rice paper, suitable for freehand painting, most of the paintings on the porcelain that are prevalent in the market are freehand, under the instruction of Meng Hongxian, Mr. He taught Huai'an to also prefer this.
According to the usual way of drawing, a fish is drawn quickly, she thought about it, and added a lotus flower floating on the water.
Xiu'e was full of praise on the side and watched for a while.
In the afternoon, Meng Huai'an came in over the wall, very satisfied with the painting, and only pointed to a blank space in the upper right corner and said: "Didn't you say that you mentioned the word, why are you empty?"
"The handwriting may be disguised, but the handwriting can't be hidden, and it's easy to expose the stuffing when I help you write it. She said truthfully.
Huai'an listened to the reason, picked up the pen and inked, without asking her, wrote down the words "lotus has fish", dried it and took it to Mr. He.
After handing in the painting, he could go out, but he didn't break his promise, and went back to the backyard to find Siqing.
Siqing looked at the courtyard wall and said worriedly: "Forget it, I can't climb up." ”
Huai'an laughed in surprise: "Who said that I still have to climb the wall to get out, with your help today, I am free now, and I can walk through the gate." ”
Seeing that Siqing was still standing, he came up and knocked her on the head: "I think you have a lot of aura, but you turned out to be a stupid person." ”
Siqing took a step back, slightly displeased by his words.
However, she still followed him out, and she hadn't breathed the air outside Meng's house for a long time.
came out only to find that Meng Huai'an's fox ...... No, there are really a lot of good friends, and people keep greeting him.
As soon as he bypassed North Street, he met several acquaintances, one of whom was particularly conspicuous in a white suit, and he stepped forward to take Huai'an and was about to turn a corner, probably to take him somewhere.
Huai An had already followed a few steps, remembering that he still had someone with him today, and looked back.
Siqing said, "You go, I'll go back first." ”
Huai'an hesitated for a moment and waved his hand at the people around him: "It's inconvenient to take my fourth sister out for a walk today, next time, next time." ”
When the white suit heard this, he smiled and said, "Is it the fourth sister in your family who can't get married?"
The voice was very loud, and he was not worried that Siqing would hear it.
Huai'an's face changed slightly, and he said weakly: "That's because my fourth sister doesn't want to marry." ”
"Come on, who doesn't know that it's your little overlord who is in trouble. The other party said and glanced at Siqing, "I thought it was an ugly monster, isn't this very good-looking, why don't I help your sister find it?"
"Just you, how many of your friends are reliable?"
"Hey, Meng Huai'an, you don't even let yourself go?"
"Go, go, go. Huai'an pushed him with a dark face, "We're leaving." ”
The white suit joked enough, gave way, and wandered slowly down the street with a few other people.
Huai'an turned around and beckoned: "Let's go." ”
Siqing stepped forward quickly: "Actually, you can leave me alone." ”
"I promised to take you out to play, you have to do what you say, going to the left with them is just drinking, and there is so much time. After he finished speaking, he paused and looked sideways at her, "That...... Do you blame me?"
"What?"
"The affairs of the Liu family ......," he whispered.
Siqing was surprised to hear it: "Do you know that you are wrong?"
"I ...... Of course yes, it's a good thing that you didn't get married. The person in front of him had a hard mouth, but his expression was compromised, "That's it...... Mother said, I was impulsive and ruined the happiness of your life, hey, I didn't expect that except for the Liu family, other people's families didn't want to, and now even my friends know about it...... I'm sorry!"
He took a step back and bowed to Siqing with a serious face.
Seeing that he was so serious, Siqing was slightly stunned and said, "Second brother, you don't have to be like this, I don't blame you." ”
Not only is it not to blame, but we should also be grateful to him, rather than going to another cage to marry an unknown person and face an unknown future, it is better to stay in this cage, at least the life to be lived is clear and visible.
Huai'an breathed a sigh of relief and laughed: "That's good, this marriage still has to be based on the premise of having feelings, where can you get married without seeing it?"
"Yes, so I also want to thank you, second brother. She said.
Huai'an scratched his head embarrassedly, caught a glimpse of the wandering stall of the candy seller on the side of the road, and walked over to the candy buyer.
Siqing stood in the middle of the road and waited, and suddenly, a man in short pants rushed over, his face was hideous and menacing, and when she looked up and saw the flat pole in the man's hand, the person was already close to her.
Her brain was blank, and she forgot to move under her feet, but fortunately, someone pounced on her and took her to the side of the road, and at the same time, there was a sugar man who had broken in half.
The moment he fell to the ground, he heard a "click", and the person behind him gasped.
The man's eyes were red, and he waved his long bamboo and wooden pole again, and this time, he was stopped by Meng Huai'an's friends who had not gone far yet.
The two finally stood up, Siqing saw Huai'an holding his right arm, remembered the "click" sound just now, and hurriedly asked, "But it broke?"
"Hey, it's not to save you. ”
She was about to thank her, when Meng Huaian said again: "You said that you saw someone coming, why didn't you hide?"
Choking on gratitude and worry, she blushed and said, "He's too fast." ”
Huai'an thought about it, and went to the man: "Why are you running so fast, you can't see anyone?"
And the other party stared at him, as if there was fire in his eyes, if it wasn't for a few people pulling, he would have rushed up now, looking at this situation, he obviously intended to rush at them.
is still the same white suit, it is a punch to the stomach of the person who came, the other party is in pain, and he still glared at Meng Huai'an: "You return my son's life!"
Meng Huai'an stared at him: "Who is your son?"
"You hit him, and you played stupid, you ...... Is there a king in this world......"
The white suit patted his chest at the right time: "Hey, hey, hey, I'm Wang Fa here." ”
The other party was stunned, and suddenly laughed: "Okay, I can't fight with you, but now that I'm dead, I have to ask my son for an explanation!"
As he spoke, he was about to hit the stall on the side of the road, but his body was still restrained, and he was pulled back after rushing several times, Meng Huaian didn't remember who he was, and asked, "Which one?"
The other party gasped and said: "My son delivered goods for me a few days ago, and accidentally bumped into you at the street entrance, and you hit him, and now the person hasn't woken up, if he has something, I won't let you go!"
"It turned out to be you!" Huai'an remembered, gritting his teeth.
For him to beat people, the Meng family blamed him a lot.
He looked at the white suit: "You were there last time, you saw it, it was that kid who spoke badly, obviously he bumped into me, and he scolded me without apologizing......"
The white suit nodded: "That's right, and it was that kid who pushed people first, pushed our buddies down, and his leg was swollen, and I haven't asked you for compensation yet, you came to show off your power first, and you dare to beat people on the street!"
"You are not short of money, why do you want us poor people to compensate, anyway, my son is hospitalized, I must avenge this revenge!"
"No, your son looks strong, how can he be so unbeaten, I just punched him, and I didn't hit the vital point, how could it be so serious?" Huai'an questioned.
"Don't talk nonsense to him. The white suit said: "Don't you understand, this is fraudulent money, let me get him away." ”
Several people listened to the order and forcibly dragged the people away, the scolding gradually dissipated, and the people watching the excitement slowly dispersed.
Huai'an's arm was injured, and he couldn't continue shopping, so he had to go home with Siqing.
On the way back, Siqing admonished: "Since he wants money, if you are not short of money, it is better to compensate him, so as not to cause trouble in the future." ”
Huai'an whispered: "I thought the Meng family had already paid compensation." ”
He caused trouble, and the Meng family dealt with the aftermath, which was a habit for him.
Siqing remembered that the old lady said that there are countless times of compensation once, so it seems that the Meng family has never given a penny.
"Forget it, I'll go back and ask someone to send some money. Huai'an said again: "Don't talk about this today, they know about it, and I don't have any good fruit to eat." ”
Siqing glanced at his arm: "How can you hide this?"
"Actually, it didn't break, it just hurt a little, I'll go find a medical center to bandage it, and then hide it in my sleeve, they can't see it, I don't use this hand in front of them. ”
"But don't you have to draw a picture every day, how can you draw without your right hand?"
"What about this...... Huai'an thought for a moment, looked at her, and smiled thoughtfully.
She had a bad idea.
The two came out of the infirmary, sneaked back, and as soon as they entered the door, the first thing they met was Mr. He.
Mr. He is sitting under the laurel tree in the courtyard at this moment, holding the "lotus lotus with fish" that Siqing replaced today.
If the two of them want to go back, they have to pass in front of him, and they can't be invisible, so they have to go to ask for peace.
Huai Annuo said, "Teacher, what a coincidence." ”
He still has a lot of respect for this teacher.
Mr. He got up: "It's not a coincidence, I'm waiting for you." ”
Then he looked at him: "This must be the fourth lady?"
Siqing nodded and said hello, although she had heard of Mr. He before, she had never met him, she knew that he was not very old, and he had just stood up, but now she saw him in a blue shirt, not smiling, but there was a kind of stereotypical posture of an old gentleman, which was incompatible with his clear face, and she couldn't help but feel a little timid.
Mr. He returned the salute, turned to Huai'an, spread out the painting, and asked, "Is this what you painted?"
The two of them were shocked, could it be exposed?
Tense my nerves, I listened to Mr. He's words: "The painting is not bad, and it has improved compared to before." ”
The two breathed a sigh of relief.
"But ......"
The two of them lifted their breath again.
"But I'm afraid you've forgotten all the penmanship I taught you before. ”
Mr. He didn't see their expressions, and pointed to the painting: "Although the freehand is said to be in shape, the pen and ink walk does not need to be rigid in the subsections, but the basic way of moving the pen can not be arbitrary, such as this painting on the lotus leaf, hanging the wrist to hold the pen, the center of the pen, first a large brush heavy ink painting leaves, and then a small pen thick ink painting vein, even though your painting is vivid, but it is worthless, the basic skills are not mastered, he paints on the porcelain fetus, how can he use it freely?"
His tone was gentle, but he didn't mean to blame, Siqing was confused, and couldn't help but look at Huai'an, seeing that he nodded again and again, but his eyes were flying everywhere, and he didn't listen to it at first glance.
Mr. He could also see that he was perfunctory, and sighed: "I have been teaching you for a long time, but now I still have to nag about the basic skills, I don't know if it's my problem, or if you really don't want to learn, if you really don't want to learn, just tell your father that I am also pure." ”
Huai'an came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It's my fault, my fault, I will study hard, and I will pay attention next time." ”
After that, without waiting for Mr. He, he pulled Siqing and left quickly.
