From Zhao Yuanchu to Xie Banshi, in the face of such a dramatic change, the time for half a cup of tea has passed, Chen Anxiu's brain still feels a little dizzy, to be honest, he never thought of letting tons of tons worship under Xie Banshi's door, not once, let alone him, it is those candidates for Zhang Shinian's staff, Xie Banshi is not considered, it's not that he can't look down on it, but he really thinks it's not possible. Even if Xie Banshi had some relationship with the Zhang family in his early years, he didn't move around all these years, and rashly stuffed someone with an apprentice, and Xie Banshi's temper and temperament would never accept it. Another reason is that Xie Banshi is indeed old, even if he is as domineering as he is when he is old, it is not good to force others to make every effort to bring tons at this advanced age. Of course, if people want to, say it separately.

Xie Banshi waited for a while and didn't get a reply from the family, so he took the initiative to ask, "What?

Zhang Shinian didn't say anything, he seemed to have other considerations, he didn't speak, Chen Anxiu had to answer and say, "Old Xie, don't get me wrong, it's just that things are a little sudden." ”

Xie Banshi had a good impression of him, and he was not angry at his ambiguous attitude, and continued, "I also know that this decision is a bit sudden, but I am very optimistic about this child, I can give you time to think about it, and if you still decide to worship Yuan Chu as a teacher in the end, I will also give the child appropriate guidance." When he said this, he noticed that the child sitting opposite him had been staring at him, with suppressed admiration and excitement in his eyes, his face was more relaxed, and he turned his head and asked softly, "What do you think?"

Tons pursed his lower lip hesitantly, and glanced sideways at Chen Anxiu and Zhang Shinian.

Zhang Shinian understood what he meant, and Chen Anxiu also understood, he still remembered what Uncle Lu said when he recommended Zhao Yuanchu, he said that Mr. Zhao Yuanchu's freehand flowers and birds were great, but everyone knew that the best freehand flowers and birds were the old man in front of him, and Xie Lao was not specialized in freehand flowers and birds, and he also had extraordinary achievements in calligraphy, seal carving, oil painting, etc. At this age, not to mention apprenticeship, it is also a great luck to have the guidance of this old man himself. He couldn't find a reason to refuse, but they were looking for Mr. Zhao Yuanchu at the beginning, and now if they immediately don't hug the pipa because of Xie Lao's opening and gladly agree, it would be too disrespectful to Mr. Zhao Yuanchu. What's more, at first, they took the initiative to come to the door, and they pestered again and again. Tons should have thought of this aspect as well, so even if they were willing in their hearts, they didn't agree.

Of course, Zhang Shinian also thought about this aspect, but in his case, this is obviously not the most important thing, he is more concerned about finding a suitable teacher, and the resources that Xie Banshi can bring to Tons are obviously incomparable to Zhao Yuanchu.

Chen Anxiu knew a little about Zhang Shinian, so he followed Zhao Yuanchu's efforts to help Banshi go to the bathroom, and discussed with him in a low voice, "Otherwise, let Ton Ton decide this matter for himself." He is not a child without judgment now, and besides, the teacher found it for him, and he should have his own say. Didn't you say before that children must have their own opinions? This is not a question of right and wrong. ”

Zhang Shinian has always been a little different from Chen Anxiu's educational concept, in his concept, whether it is hobbies, learning or other aspects, as long as you do it, you must do the best you can, while Anxiu is more inclined to as long as the child has no principled three views, a positive attitude, health and happiness are the most important, and everything else is an extension of this foundation. Just like the current Maomao, who is more than two years old, he doesn't know a few big characters, let alone learn talents early like other children. Fortunately, Ton Ton is a child with strong self-control, although he is emotionally dependent on An Xiu, but his personality is more similar to that of his time, so far, there is not much difference between the two fathers on the issue of children's education.

This time Zhang Shinian didn't want to compromise easily, but he had to admit that An Xiu's words were also right, Ton Ton is at the age when he has his own judgment and opinions, and the development of a child's character is obviously more important than a teacher, "Ton Ton, you make your own choice in this matter." We're not going to meddle this time. ”

Ton Ton was slightly stunned for a moment, and then nodded quickly.

Xie Banshi's excuse to go to the bathroom was obviously to leave room for their family to discuss, he and Zhao Yuanchu came back after about five or six minutes, and at this time Ton Ton had already made his own decision, so when Xie Banshi asked him again, he thanked Xie Lao very sincerely, but said that he still wanted to worship Mr. Zhao Yuanchu as a teacher.

Compared with Xie Banshi, Zhao Yuanchu was obviously more surprised, although he is now a small achievement in the painting world, but he cannot be compared with the teacher, so in his initial concept, if the teacher takes the initiative to speak, the Chen family father and son will definitely not refuse, and he is still hesitant about accepting apprentices at the beginning. So from the time he entered the house to the present, he didn't explain much about changing teachers, because he knew that the result was inevitable and the process was not important. Especially when he met Zhang Shi, he didn't know this person, but his bearing would not deceive people, this was a superior person, and a superior person usually did not care too much about the feelings of a stranger, especially when there was a conflict with his own established interests.

But he never thought that in his eyes, this somewhat arrogant child would be willing to choose him. No matter what the child's original intention is, he received this respect, but now he can't agree, he can see that the teacher values this child, and he doesn't want to disappoint the elderly teacher, "I didn't immediately agree to accept the apprentice at first, but I also considered it a lot, one of the very important reasons is that I have a lot of affairs around me in recent years, and I can't set aside much time to tutor students, and Qiuyang has to stay on Green Island to study for a long time, so I am afraid that I can't cooperate well in the time arrangement." Xie Lao is different, you may not know that Xie Lao has been living in Green Island for the past two years, and it is convenient for Qiuyang to pass, and the other is that the level of teachers is beyond my reach. ”

When people say it to this point, they just politely refuse, and it's not good to say that they insist on worshipping him as a teacher. Chen Anxiu also knew that if he continued to entangle, he would only provoke Xie Banshi, and both the master and apprentice would be unhappy.

Xie Banshi didn't have too many rules, and after drinking tons of tea, he would accept this apprentice. However, Zhao Yuanchu took the initiative to propose that he wanted to let the brothers and sisters in Beijing come out to have a meal together, the teacher has confiscated apprentices in the past 20 years, and now it is a happy event to have a little apprentice, which is worth celebrating, and it is also a testimony for everyone to come out and get to know each other. Of course, what he didn't say was this, I'm afraid it's also a closed disciple. It is very unlikely that the teacher will accept apprentices after this age.

He said so many reasons, Xie Banshi naturally agreed, and the other was also because he was old, the child was only fourteen, and he would have to ask his senior brother to take care of him in the future, and it was a good thing to get to know him as soon as possible, but if Zhao Yuanchu was not good at talking, Xie Banshi didn't have any pressure to say it himself, he made it clear that this was a closed disciple.

Closed disciples have always been valued by others, especially Xie Banshi's closed disciples, such a great honor, after Zhao Yuanchu's mouth, in less than a day, not to mention the entire calligraphy and painting world in Beijing, at least among Xie Banshi's apprentices and grandchildren, they speculated with each other who had such great luck to get Xie Lao's blue eyes. Xie Banshi's fame and status are here, and almost every year, there are people who want to worship him through various channels and connections, including some painters who have become famous, powerful children and famous ladies who love this way. In his early years, he would leave a few to guide, but in his later years, apart from his old friends, he rarely saw outsiders, let alone take in apprentices or guides. Over time, everyone also tacitly accepted that Xie Lao would not accept any more apprentices, and instead targeted Xie Lao's apprentices.

This matter further fermented in the next few days, and everyone carefully screened the painters who became famous in the painting world and deliberately revealed that they wanted to worship Xie Lao as a teacher, but to no avail, so they were more inclined to this Cheng Yanjin's background must be very deep, and even Xie Lao couldn't refuse. Especially later, it was faintly rumored that this closed disciple was still very young. Everyone believes in the latter more. Otherwise, Xie Lao's qualifications in this life, even if he is a painting genius, standing in front of him may not be able to enter his eyes.

Although this incident is sensational, it is still limited to the scope of the calligraphy and painting world, Chen Anxiu has no contact with these people, and he doesn't know anything about these things, and his life is the same as usual, no different. During this period, Wei Lin invited their family to play at a friend's newly opened ski resort, Chen Anxiu was idle and fine, so he took tons of tons to risk the past, of course, the three of them father and son will not, but tons of tons of Wei Lin, a master, accompanied the whole process, did not hurt much, Chen Anxiu was more miserable, he consciously developed motor nerves, and skated on the snowboard for the first time, but he fell to the bone and almost fell apart the day before. Zhang Shi came over on the third day, and when he came, he didn't see the person who boasted on the phone that he could already skate for a while, only saw a pig's head pulling a snow climbing plow and dragging his fat and swaying around in the snow. Facing Chen Anxiu's half-swollen face, Zhang Shinian was angry and distressed. After taking someone to the health room for examination, it was determined that it was only subcutaneous edema, nothing serious, he personally went down to teach hand-in-hand, he was not as professional as the coach, but as a lover, his carefulness and patience are incomparable to any coach, plus the professional coach from the side, just like that, after two days, Chen Anxiu was really able to slide crookedly for a long time.

If it weren't for the next things to be busy, Chen Anxiu might be willing to stay here for two more days, but the party proposed by Zhao Yuanchu was just around the corner, and they couldn't really stand idly by, although they were talking about a small gathering of senior brothers at the time, but everyone understood that this was also a semi-public apprenticeship banquet. He went to help choose the venue, and then agreed with the hotel on the menu and specific layout. Chen Anxiu originally thought that it was the words of the brothers, there would not be many people, at most two tables would be enough, until he met with Zhao Yuanchu, he knew that there were really a lot of people coming, there were probably fifty or sixty people, including some old friends of Xie Banshi for many years, not only in the calligraphy and painting world, but also in some other industries and cultural circles, in addition to the apprentices and grandchildren, on the day of the party, it happened that the art exhibition in the ceramic museum was over, and many people wanted to come over to join in the fun. This is a good thing, there is no reason to push the guests out of the door, Zhao Yuanchu agreed.

Speaking of art exhibitions, he helped there for a day, and then never went, on the last day, he and Ton Ton went on a trip, maybe to catch up with the weekend is the reason for the winter vacation of students, there are still a lot of people, he met two friends he met that day, and they talked, and the other party knew that it was his son who liked to paint, Chen Anxiu was purely pulled by them to do a day of day work, one of them was still a senior in school, with a hearty temper, and there were not too many so-called artists' cold and arrogant personality, seeing that Ton Ton was still a child, and took the initiative to invite Ton Ton to their studio to play another day, they could give free tutoring。 It was Chen Anxiu who said that the children would go back to Green Island to start school in a few days, so they gave up.

Speaking and the day of the apprenticeship banquet arrived, Chen Anxiu went over early to help Zhao Yuanchu and his wife Zhang Luo and receive guests, Zhang Shinian arrived a little later with tons of tons, but there were not many people when they arrived, although their arrival attracted attention, but more because of their appearance, everyone secretly praised the father and son for their good looks, and then the group of three or five continued to guess what kind of closed disciple Xie Lao received this time, and did not delve too deep into the identities of the two of them, after all, the people who came this time did not know each other, and it was normal to see a look。

Xie Lao was accompanied by an apprentice at about eleven o'clock, Chen Anxiu was at the door, saw it from afar, and hurried to help him, he didn't refuse, as soon as he entered the door, many people got up to greet him, but their eyes unconsciously looked behind him, everyone wanted to see who the rumored closed disciple was. But I looked at it for a long time, but I didn't see anyone.

No matter how anxious those young apprentices were, it was not easy to ask Xie Lao in person, but Xie Banshi's friends were much more familiar, and without waiting for him to sit down, he asked, "What about your little apprentice? Why didn't you come with you?" Didn't you say that you were going to bring it to everyone today?"

Xie Banshi had already seen the ton, as soon as he entered the door just now, the kid got up, but there were too many people around him, so the kid didn't squeeze over, the crowd dispersed a little, and he beckoned to the people.

Everyone unconsciously followed his line of sight, and the first thing they looked at was Zhang Shinian, who was in his thirties, and it was okay to say that he was young, but looking at the style of this person's body, it really didn't look like a hobby of this. But people can say that Xie Lao is also capable of accepting apprentices, just in the eyes of everyone's speculation, questions, curiosity and scrutiny, the child who had been standing next to the man came over, and the man just patted the child's shoulder, and did not follow at all. At this time, everyone had a faint guess in their hearts, although it was too terrifying, but it was closest to reality at the moment.

"Teacher. If you say this, some people still suspect that they have misheard their tinnitus. Then Jiang Dufeng's next loud voice is beyond suspicion, "Let me introduce to you, this child's name is Chen Qiuyang, and he is the teacher's newly accepted closed disciple, and he is also the junior disciple of me and Zhifei." Thank you for your continued concern. ”

The banquet hall was quiet for two seconds, and then there was applause one after another, followed by everyone's congratulations, those who can come here to participate in the party, not to mention that each is a human spirit, but there are few that are unreasonable, since everyone Xie Lao has recognized it, Huang Dufeng and Zhang Zhifei, these masters in the painting world, can openly shout a little junior brother, they just have more doubts in their hearts, and they will not show it in person. But where is this young, it is simply young, although he is not short, but the face and voice are clearly a child who has not yet reached the stage of voice change, and he is only twelve or thirteen years old.

In addition to apprenticeship this time, I also met a few senior brothers, Xie Banshi's apprentices are not all concentrated in Beijing, and there are several abroad, because of time, they did not rush back this time, but I heard that the teacher accepted the closed disciples, and they also asked someone to prepare gifts. There are only three in Beijing, the eldest Zhang Zhifei is seventy-two this year, and Zhao Yuan is nearly sixty years old. In addition to tons, the apprentice Qi Shan that Xie Banshi accepted more than 20 years ago is also fifty years younger, he came by plane from Hangzhou, he came late, everyone has already sat down at the table, he came over and knew that it was tons, so he smiled and said, "In the past 20 years, I thought I was the closed disciple, but I didn't expect the teacher to wait for me here, but the teacher's vision has always been high, the little junior brother must be good, I won't complain." He took the greeting gift from his bag and gave it to Tonton, touched Tonton's head again, and sighed, "The little junior brother is younger than my son." ”

Jiang Dufeng next to him pulled him down and said, "Okay, Qiuyang is younger than my grandson, I haven't complained, what are you sighing about?"

As soon as he said this, the people at the table laughed, even if Xie Banshi's disciples and grandchildren were peaceful, but looking at such a hairy child and the senior master they had admired for many days sitting on an equal footing at the same table, talking and laughing freely, saying that there was no jealousy in their hearts. Especially when I think of the previous background theory, my heart is sour, and I sigh that the same person has a different life, and it is also a skill to be reincarnated. There is a faint and inexplicable complex emotion towards Tonton, which is not hostile, but it is definitely not very friendly.

At this time, one of them suddenly said, "Oh, I remembered, I said that this kid is so familiar, he is Chen Anxiu's son." "He was the one who invited Ton Ton to his studio at the exhibition. At first, he couldn't believe it, but the child's appearance was not a passer-by on the street, and he forgot it when he saw it. And when he came, he seemed to have seen Chen Anxiu's figure.

Most of them didn't know who Chen Anxiu was, but several people who were busy working together that day knew him, and some of these people who knew him said, "Isn't it? I don't think Chen Anxiu looks like he has any background, "Look at the clothes and talk or something, the family shouldn't be too bad, otherwise they wouldn't think it's peers, but people don't have a shelf at all, and they pulled them to do a day of day work that day, and there are no complaints, this doesn't look like a rich young master from a powerful family."

"Maybe that kid really has some amazing talent?" Otherwise, why would Elder Xie accept such a small closed disciple?

If that's the case, I'm convinced. "Someone said what a lot of people wanted.

Although the matter of talent is inconclusive for the time being, after all, if Xie Lao does not speak, it is not easy for anyone to rush to ask other people's junior disciples to show their level in public, but at least to a large extent, it has shaken the background-only theory that many people believe, and this result is probably something that Chen Anxiu did not expect at that time. In any case, Tonton's background was so blurred by him, which made Tonton's colored eyes a lot less.

The older ones have more experience, and most of them don't have the surging thoughts of young people. One of them is named Shao Peiyan, who is said to be an expert in archaeology, in his early sixties this year, he is more than ten years younger than Xie Lao, but he is also an old friend who has known each other for many years. ”

"You're getting old, and our little girl over there is pretty good. The last sentence Chen Anxiu simply had nothing to say.

But I didn't expect this one to nod quite approvingly, "It's hard to chase a good girl." "His son has been chasing one for half a year, and he hasn't nodded yet. It was not easy for my son to really open up when he was thirty-one, but after a long time, the girl just didn't give him a chance, and there was no way. Their family doesn't care whether it's foreign or local, as long as the other party's family is innocent, the girl is willing to be motivated, and the little couple has the right temper to live a good life together, whatever. But now the girl didn't agree, saying that everything was in vain.

Zhang Shinian had lunch here, and left in the afternoon because there was a meeting in the company. Chen Anxiu and Ton Ton stayed with Xie Lao until more than three o'clock, everyone dispersed, and they sent Xie Lao back to his residence, and Ton Ton will return to Green Island the day after tomorrow to prepare for the start of school, but Xie Lao will not go to Green Island until the weather gets warmer in April, he gave Ton Ton the address in Green Island, which is near Dongshan District, and the master and apprentice agreed to meet in April.

Mao Mao recently saw his brother and father go out of the house, but always don't take him, he is a little unhappy, this morning when Zhang Shinian and Ton Ton came out, he has to follow him alive or dead, don't let him follow, he will be angry, one of the ways he gets angry is to chubby pestle at the car door, as long as he doesn't carry him up, he won't let anyone go up. But it was inconvenient to take him on such an occasion today, so Zhang Shinian brought him out, but he turned around and sent him to the old man of the Zhang family. It just so happens that this is also a little grandson who thinks about it every day.

Put Mao Mao to Zhang's house, Zhang Shinian and Ton Ton went quietly, but this behavior obviously annoyed Mao Mao, he didn't listen to his grandfather anymore, he didn't want toys anymore, he didn't watch cartoons anymore, he was about to run down the street with all his might, and no one shouted to listen. At noon, I finally came back to eat, and I didn't sleep again during the afternoon nap. The old man changed his clothes and lay on the bed with him for more than an hour, and he didn't put anyone to sleep. In the end, I got tired of running and fell asleep on the small blanket on the edge of the sofa. When Chen Anxiu came back, he had just slept for half an hour. Because he was afraid that he would wake up and make trouble after changing his clothes, his family only took off his coat and shoes and socks. Chen Anxiu picked him up and took off his pants outside, he opened his eyes and saw that it was his father, tilted his head and fell asleep again.

Chen Anxiu was secretly glad that he had escaped at this time, but when he woke up, he knew that his thoughts were really too naïve.

However, the success of the apprenticeship is also a major event in everyone's hearts, this matter was officially confirmed, Chen Anxiu called Chen's father and Chen's mother, even Chen's father, a person who does not know how to write and ink, also knows Xie Banshi's name, I heard that he will be a ton of teachers, and happily confirmed it on the phone several times, and said that if it wasn't for the teacher's big head, he was afraid that it would be too ostentatious to say it, and he wanted to set up a banquet at home. At the same time, Chen's father also told him one thing, saying that the Green Island TV station was going to do an exclusive interview with Uncle Chen, and the people from the TV station contacted him through Chen Tianli. She used to work in the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee and had a close relationship with the TV station.

Chen's father said the name of the show on the phone, Chen Anxiu is a little impressed, it is a character album, once a week, the interviews in it are all excellent Green Island people from the north and south of the South China Sea in the past few days, basically one person and one episode, some may experience complex points and are divided into two episodes, the content is actually nothing outstanding, it is nothing more than to talk about his hometown and growth experience, talk about his current work, and then express his nostalgia for his hometown and the like, but maybe there are still a lot of talents going out of Green Island, this show has been done for some years, and it is still continuing, and there is no sign of stopping for the time being。

"What do you mean by my fourth uncle?"

"Your fourth uncle didn't agree at first, but your eldest sister came to persuade him a few times, and someone from the TV station also said that your fourth uncle agreed to do an interview. ”

Chen Anxiu thought for a while and said, "Actually, it's nothing, is it just an interview? Just do it, they won't ask any too private questions, just talk in generalities." Aren't there many people who are older than my fourth uncle who have done it? ”

"I'm not worried about this, your fourth uncle has been outside all these years, he has a sense of proportion, Tianli used to take care of this, and she also understands it. Come back the day after tomorrow, you tell Yan Xu to be vigilant on the road. If you and Mao Mao can't live there for a few more days, the old people of the Ji family and the Zhang family are also old, and they must be worried about their children. Now there's nothing going on at home, and you don't have to worry about anything. ”

"I see, Dad. I'll call you early before I go back. ”

On the day of leaving, in addition to Yan Xu, Chen Tianlan also temporarily decided to go back together, she was not yet at the beginning of school, but she had to follow her parents back to Guangzhou before school started, this time because of Grandma Chen's physical problems, Uncle Chen's vacation was extraordinarily long, but no matter how long the vacation was, he was ready to go back after the TV interview this time. 166 Reading Network
