246 【About the practice of lanterns】
After a whole afternoon of swimming in the sea of books, he pushed open the door of the small lounge and saw at a glance the summer lying on the sofa, looking lazy, and when he walked in, he also saw a Bai Zhongqiu who didn't know what he was busy stacking. After getting closer, Shu Chang found that although these two people had different postures and different things, they had the same sad face when they practiced their voices, and they all frowned slightly, as if they were thinking about something terrible.
"I haven't seen you two in the afternoon, what are you two doing? Look, these two are frowning, what's the matter, Mo Qiqi is calling again? No, he said yesterday that he would come back this morning, and now it should be on the plane at this time, so it is impossible to call. Shu Chang touched his chin and looked at them very puzzled, "I said, tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival is a reunion festival, a very festive day, don't frown, okay? I hurried over to say goodbye, but I didn't see it, what's the matter, grandma took the little guy back again?
"You've been suffocating this afternoon, aren't you?" Xia Xia raised his hand and slapped Shu Chang's back, "Look at your mouth, you have been chattering since you entered the door, where did you come from so many problems!"
"Yo he, the fire is big enough, what's the matter, Grandpa She's medicinal diet has made up the fire for you in the past two days?" Shu Chang turned around and pounced towards Xiaxia, pinched his cheeks vigorously, and saw that Xia Xia was going to scratch his armpits, so he quickly let go of his hand, pouted at him, and said, "Tut-tut, look at this little face, I don't see a pimple!"
"Hmph, I guess you'll have to be like me in a while. Xia Xia raised her chin and nodded to Bai Zhongqiu, who had been holding a piece of paper folded around, and said, "Do you know what Brother Xiaoqiu is doing?"
"Well, I don't know!" Shu Chang looked at it carefully for a while, "Uncle, what are you...... Are you studying how to fold paper airplanes to coax Lord Lele? Eh, there's no need for that, aren't there a lot of model airplanes at home? Lord Lele is also very precious, but he doesn't seem to like paper very much, and the last time Uncle gave him one, he wasn't very interested. So, you don't have to bother with it at all. ”
"What kind of eyes are you, you should really let Uncle Wen take you to the ophthalmology department! What about paper airplanes, hang paper airplanes when your family celebrates the Lantern Festival?" Xia Xia rolled her eyes, sat up from the sofa, made room for Bai Zhongqiu, who came over, and continued, "When grandma came to pick up Lord Lele just now, she assigned us a task, and it was not specially assigned to us, according to grandma, every member of the family must complete this task, including you." ”
"Including me? Then how did I not know?"
Summer patted Shu Chang's shoulder and said with a sympathetic expression, "You don't know that it's because grandma sees that you are studying hard and doesn't want to disturb you, so she entrusted us to convey this task to you." ”
"I've been talking for a long time, what is this task?" Shu Chang was particularly interested in this task that could embarrass his uncle and the male god, after all, it was not easy to make these two people who had always been strong in their hearts change their faces. Shu Chang looked at Xia Xia, then at Bai Zhongqiu, and finally, his eyes fell on the unknown paper item in Bai Zhongqiu's hand, and suddenly had a guess in his mind, and asked a little tentatively, "It won't be a manual task, right?"
"That's right!" Xia Xia patted Shu Chang's shoulder fiercely, "It's just to do handicrafts, grandma said, everyone should make a lantern, which will be used at the family banquet tomorrow." We've seen things like lanterns, but we really want to do them, we don't have a clue at all, and we don't know where to start. However, it's still Brother Xiaoqiu who is smart, he found a book on making lanterns from the Internet, and we studied it for a long time, but I didn't figure it out, and the book was quite detailed, but ...... It's not like that at all!" Xia Xia sighed softly, "We have both failed many times this afternoon, but fortunately we didn't waste good materials, we both used waste paper, otherwise it would be a big sin." When you entered the door just now, I was about to collapse, and Brother Xiaoqiu was still insisting, but if you didn't come, it would probably not be long before you gave up. ”
"It's time to give up, neither of you should be a handicraft. Ji Ji's words, it was you who broke the news in the interview before that you were not so ingenious, as for my uncle, well, paper airplanes are his most successful handmade products, and other works ...... According to Grandpa Tai's statement, it's all miserable! If you want to talk about the handicraft world, in our family, if Young Master Ben recognizes the second, it is estimated that no one will be able to recognize the first. Shu Chang didn't show the sad face that Xia Xia imagined at all, but instead looked calm, he looked at Bai Zhongqiu and the paper in his hand, and shook his head towards Xia, "You two still want to make lanterns on such a foundation, it's really wishful thinking!" Shu Chang pursed his lips, seeing his uncle staring at him expressionlessly, he quickly stood up and ran to the safe area opposite to sit down," Uncle, don't bring this, you two don't have any talent in handicraft, this is a fact, don't you let people tell the truth?"
"It's very bold!" Bai Zhongqiu glanced at Shu Chang, who seemed to be very aggrieved, threw the waste paper in his hand into the paper basket, picked up the tablet that was put aside, and began to check the homework that Shu Chang sent him today. "Since you are so powerful, the task of the lantern has been handed over to you, if you can't do it well, the family law will serve. ”
"Eh, there is no such thing as you, asking for help with things, and being so arrogant?"
Bai Zhongqiu raised his head, squinted his eyes, and asked threateningly, "That's the attitude, then can you help?"
"Help help, help, definitely help, I'll leave it to you, it's just three lanterns, no problem. ”
"The cowhide is blowing with a bang, are you really that powerful?" said Summer very skeptically.
"It's pretty powerful, it's really not bragging!" This time it wasn't Shu Chang boasting, but Bai Zhongqiu, who was checking his homework, and he pointed on the tablet while saying, "When he was a child...... Well, from kindergarten to elementary school graduation, he has won a lot of awards in this regard, and the next time you go to the old mansion, you can take a look, there is a room dedicated to him to put these trophies. If I'm not mistaken, one of the best prizes he won was a lantern. ”
"Really?" Summer's eyes widened in surprise, "Awesome, my little Changchang, this is really unseemly!
"When I was young, I had more time, so I had nothing to do to play and entertain myself!" Shu Chang held his cheeks and looked at the summer, "I went to middle school, I spent more time in school, and my homework gradually became more, and it was rare to sleep, where would I have the opportunity to do handicrafts? ”
"Also, thinking about your past ten years, it is really not easy, to grow into what you are today, in addition to your own refusal to grow crooked, your uncle and grandfather are also indispensable. Xia nodded knowingly, to be honest, looking at the small population of the Shu family, there are really a lot of messy things. Shu Chang can thrive in such an environment, and the three views are as positive as they are, which is really rare! Xia Xia smiled at Shu Chang, "Since that's the case, let's divide the labor, you mainly do it, and the two of us will give you a hand, how about it?"
"No problem at all. Shu Chang patted his small chest, "However, before doing it, we have to study what style to make, whether it is traditional, innovative, or interesting." ”
"Is there any special difference?"
"The traditional ones are such as dragon lanterns, palace lanterns, yarn lanterns, of course, like our own casual play, palace lanterns, yarn lanterns are a good choice, relatively small, the production is not so complicated, it is easy to make a lamp. The innovative kind is mainly in the materials used in the lanterns. For example, the lantern I won the award was not made of traditional materials such as paper and bamboo, so I chose the glazed one. A few years ago, such a material was quite extravagant, and most people would not use it to make lamps. Therefore, compared with other entries, it looks more crystal clear. Shu Chang touched the teapot on the coffee table, there was still a little bit of temperature, poured himself a cup of tea, and said, "If someone used crystal at that time, then this award probably wouldn't have been awarded to me." As for fun, it refers to the style and content of the lantern. The lanterns of the past two years have done a good job in this regard, using cartoon characters that have been more popular in the past two years. It's just that it's more difficult to make fun, and I'm afraid there is no hope for completing it in one day, so my suggestion is to choose a material like cellophane and make a traditional palace lamp or yarn lamp, which saves trouble and effort, and looks beautiful. ”
"Sure enough, he is a middle and high master, just a few words casually can let us clear the fog and see hope, it's amazing!" Xia Xia gave a thumbs up to Shu Chang, "Everything is up to you, when we have dinner, let's do it!" 166 Reading Network
