It's not a short walk from the backyard to the front yard. Fortunately, Yue Yao has been exercising for so long, and her foot strength is very good, and the road color has not changed at all after walking so far.

Although the weather has become cooler, I am walking on the road at noon, and it is very hot and humid without sun, and after walking so far, the flower buds can no longer walk. Hua Bud thought that it was time to exercise herself, and she couldn't even compare to her own girl, which was really shameless.

Yahuan looked at the sweat absorption on Yueyao's forehead, and asked thoughtfully, "Cousin, why don't you go to the pavilion to rest!" ”

Yue Yao shook her head: "No, I can't let my uncle wait for a long time." ”

When she arrived at the study, Yue Yao smiled comfortably. She's been to this place several times.

Ma Chengteng hadn't seen Yueyao for more than a month, and he was very satisfied when he saw that Yueyao was looking very good: "I've grown taller, and my complexion is not bad." If there is anything in the Lian Mansion, you must not hide anything else, and tell your uncle quickly. ”

Yue Yao shook her head: "Uncle, I'm doing well in the mansion. It's not that I don't want to tell Ma Chengteng. I just think that these things are trivial, and I don't need to bother my uncle, I have to ask my uncle to come forward for everything, don't say that my uncle will be tired of it at that time, even she is embarrassed. It's not an unweaned doll, where can you rely on others for everything.

Ma Chengteng was relieved: "That's good." ”

Yue Yao asked curiously, "Uncle, do you have anything to do with me?" She knew that her uncle must have something to say when she let her go to the study, and she didn't know what made her uncle so solemn.

Ma Chengteng took out a scroll from the bookshelf. After opening it, Yueyao found that it was the painting she had drawn last time, but it was just a few more lines on it.

After reading it, Yueyao's heart was about to jump out: "Uncle, are these words Mr. Yushan's comments?" "It's the first time that Yueyao has been so excited about her rebirth, and she just asked her uncle to try her luck before, and she didn't have any expectations. Unexpectedly, I really got Mr. Yushan's guidance.

Ma Chengteng looked at his niece who was flushed with excitement. This child always looks like a little adult, it is rare to have such an expression, and it is also that no matter how calm he was in the past, he was only a nine-year-old child: "Mr. Yushan's comment is on the painting, you can see it yourself." ”

Written on the painting is a passage: "Seeing the mountain is the mountain, and seeing the water is the water; Seeing mountains is not mountains, and seeing water is not water; Seeing the mountains is still mountains, and seeing the water is still water. ”

Yue Yao was dumbfounded, what did this mean. She didn't paint landscapes, so why would she comment so much. She only painted the begonia flowers in the begonia courtyard, and by the way, she integrated the scenery in the yard.

Yueyao didn't suspect that Mr. Yushan's comment was wrong, but felt that it was too profound for her to understand. Yueyao asked anxiously, "Uncle, what do you mean by this?" ”

Ma Chengteng opened his mouth: "You think about it yourself first." However, Mr. Yushan told him that it was best to let Yueyao experience and understand it first, so that he could make progress.

Yue Yao looked at the painting and fell into deep thought.

Ma Chengteng looked at his niece's eyebrows and twisted them into ropes, and couldn't help but give a hint: "Mr. Yushan said that this sentence represents three levels, and you have now reached the second level." Whether you can cross the second level to the third level depends on your own understanding. Mr. Yushan also said that if Yueyao can cross the second threshold and enter the third threshold, then she can become a first-class painter, and her future future is limitless. But if you can't cross it, then this life will be the current level.

At first, Mr. Yushan was reluctant to comment on this painting when he saw it, but later he reluctantly agreed to comment for the sake of face. It's just a comment that this painting has no feelings, and it has no meaning in vain, so it's a multiplication work.

Listen to Ma Chengteng's head full of black lines.

It was only when Mr. Tamayama heard that the painting was from a nine-year-old girl that he changed his attitude. It's just that no matter how talented and perceptive he is, Mr. Yushan also has the same idea as Mr. Wen, but it's a pity that Yueyao is a woman. A woman will marry and have children in the back house all her life, and what can she get by rolling with firewood, rice, oil, salt and vinegar all day long.

Of course, Mr. Yushan didn't deny it all, after all, Yueyao was still a nine-year-old girl, and he couldn't say what the future would be. Therefore, the sentence mentioned by Mr. Yushan on the painting is just that Mr. Yushan did not think that Yueyao would cross the second level. How many people linger at this threshold and stop forever. This threshold is not only to test understanding and talent, but also to have life experience and insight. It's a pity that Yueyao is congenitally insufficient.

Yue Yao listened to it and thought deeply, she just liked painting in her last life, and she relied on her own understanding and talent to paint, and there was no guidance from the Master, although she was a famous talented woman in the capital, but the name of this talented woman was only limited to boudoir girls, and those real cowards were disdainful of her, and now she was flattered to get such a comment from Mr. Yushan.

After returning from rebirth, Yue Yao just regarded painting as a craft to make money to ensure future living conditions, and later felt that after making great progress in painting, Yue Yao wanted to become a painter, but now, Yue Yao felt that she should have a goal, and this goal is to become a great painter, because she is only one step away from a great painter now, and she believes that she can cross this step.

It's also fortunate that Ma Chengteng didn't tell Yue Yao what he said later, otherwise he would definitely hit Yue Yao's enthusiasm and make Yue Yao take many detours.

At this time, Yueyao didn't know that she had touched the door when she painted the twilight scene in the villa, although she had just touched the third door, but now she already has the potential to be a great painter.

Yue Yao looked at Mr. Yushan's painting seriously, and she didn't think about it in her heart, and turned her head and inadvertently saw Ma Chengteng's tangled appearance: "Uncle, did Mr. Yushan say anything else, you said I can bear it." She needs to have people comment on her paintings and point out the shortcomings, otherwise she can't listen to the praise and hear the shortcomings that others accuse, so how can she get in.

Ma Chengteng looked at his niece's expression, and reluctantly said Mr. Yushan's words: "Mr. Yushan said that your painting is inferior. ”

Yueyao understood: "The inferior work? Uncle, didn't you just say that Mr. Yushan said that I had entered the second threshold? "According to that review, it's a medium work.

Ma Chengteng said with a smile: "It's rare to get such a comment from Yushan, you may not know, Mr. Yushan only has three comments on the painting 'garbage, inferior, superior', Mr. Yushan said that the painting you made is first-class, but the painting has no essence, simply put, your begonia flower is just painted beautifully, but you have not painted his love into people, and your painting has less connotation." ”

Yueyao nodded again and again: "Uncle, can I understand it like this, Mr. Wang Shan said that my product is an inferior work, in fact, he is criticizing me, I only fancy the skills and painting work, but ignore the feelings, first-class painters should integrate their own feelings when painting, no matter what they paint, or express a certain idea through painting." ”

Ma Chengteng looked at Yue Yao with staring eyes, isn't that what Mr. Yushan meant? No wonder Mr. Wen would give Yue Yao such a high evaluation, this kid is not only talented and scary, but also has this understanding.

Yue Yao's mind suddenly flashed, and she said solemnly: "Uncle, Mr. Yushan's comment on the painting reads, 'Seeing the mountain is the mountain, and seeing the water is the water; Seeing mountains is not mountains, and seeing water is not water; Seeing the mountain is still a mountain, seeing the water is still water' I won't talk about the first two sentences, and the meaning of the latter sentence is that I hope I can see the essence through the phenomenon and return to the source, right? Yueyao said this sentence very concisely.

Ma Chengteng was excited again, because of his niece's talent and understanding, he could definitely become a first-class painter, and he must not bury Yueyao's talent: "Yueyao, you must not slack off on paintings, as long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to become a great painter." ”

Ma Chengteng's words made Yueyao hesitate a little: "Uncle, can I become a great painter?" Yue Yao felt that she was already very good at becoming a famous painter, a great painter, a world-famous painter, she didn't dare to think about it, but she was looking forward to it in her heart, looking forward to getting a positive answer, giving her confidence.

Ma Chengteng nodded again and again: "Yes, I will definitely be able to, uncle believes in you." "With such a good understanding and such a good talent, you can definitely cross the third threshold that Mr. Yushan said.

Yue Yao also smiled, now she is really smiling, since she was reborn, she has been working hard, hard to practice calligraphy, hard embroidery, hard painting, she works so hard to prepare for the future, with these skills to make money to support herself, and if she becomes a world-famous painter, then her kind of worry will not be there at all, the great painter, as far as she knows, Mr. Yushan's painting sells for up to 5,000 taels of silver, and the painting alone is enough to eat for a few years, not to mention a painting of a thousand taels, a painting of a few hundred taels is enough for her to eat and use, in addition, It can also go down in history.

Ma Chengteng thought for a while and said: "In the future, you must study and practice hard, and tell your uncle what you lack, but don't waste this talent." "Their family has no such talent, if there is such a talent, he will have to provide for it!

Yue Yao nodded repeatedly: "Yes." Yueyao has a goal in life, and she works hard for it.

After chatting about the paintings, Yue Yao pretended to be casual and talked about what had just happened. Ma Chengteng is 100% satisfied with this daughter-in-law: "Your cousin-in-law is very good in terms of housekeeping, and she will teach you about general affairs in the future." In the future, when you get married, these will also have to be dealt with. "Women still have to know how to run a family, and Yueyao must understand these things if she wants to marry in the future. Ma Chengteng directly ignored Moh.

Yueyao's face turned red: "Uncle......"

"Haha......" Ma Chengteng used to always look at Yueyao as if he was a little adult, and it was rare to see Yueyao's shy appearance, so he couldn't be happy.

Yueyao stomped her feet, "ignoring her uncle......"

After Ma Chengteng finished laughing, he talked about Yueyao going to Zhaohua Temple to eat: "It's the same for eating fast in the mansion, why do you want to go to the mountain." The mountains are bitter, and it will be very cold on the mountains when the winter road is about to begin. ”

Yueyao shook her head: "Just go for two months, and Layue will come back." "Yueyao originally wanted to stay on the mountain for a hundred days, but it couldn't be done. Uncle and Mo will not let her spend the New Year alone in the mountains.

Ma Chengteng knew that Yue Yao was still haunted by those rumors. Although he didn't believe in this, he couldn't do anything about it, the rumors were terrifying, if he went to Zhaohua Temple, it would be good to be able to dispel these rumors: "Then when you go to the mountain, what do you need to send a letter over." Uncle sent someone to bring it to you. ”

Yue Yao nodded, then hesitated, but still told Ma Chengteng what happened in the main room just now. Yueyao was ashamed: "Uncle, I'm not stingy, this is my mother's relic, and I can't borrow it." And I'm still practicing my own calligraphy, and I have to use it every day. Uncle and aunt must be angry with me and think I'm stingy. ”

Ma Chengteng's face was not good-looking when he heard it. Zhuang Ruolan didn't even say anything about Ma Peng, let alone let these things reach Ma Chengteng's ears. Zhuang Ruolan is the standard lady, the male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, of course, the other layer Zhuang Ruolan also has to avoid suspicion, Yueyao has no scruples.

Zhuang Ruolan doesn't say it, but it doesn't mean that others don't say it. Ma Yuan deliberately made a few fuss about Xiao Ma's in front of Ma Chengteng. Ma Chengteng has long been disgusted with this sister-in-law, but he sent it back because of his bad face. This time, after listening to Yueyao's words, I was even more displeased, an elder actually asked for something from a junior, it was really hopeless.

Ma Chengteng is a righteous gentleman, he won't say bad things about people behind his back, and it's not good to say anything about Xiao Ma in front of Yueyao at the moment: "Don't pay attention to her." This is something that your mother left to you, and you can't give it to others at will. "Ma Chengteng knew that the rubbing was an antiquity, and the rubbing was a thing of the Tang Dynasty, which was worth a lot of money.

Yue Yao didn't like to see Ma Chengteng's look, so she smiled and said, "Uncle, just now I wrote a few words in plum blossom font in front of my cousin-in-law in front of everyone, and they all said that I wrote well. My uncle helped me see where there were deficiencies, and I could improve them. ”

Ma Chengteng saw all the fonts used by Yueyao in the past, and he had never seen the plum blossom font written by Yueyao: "Okay, let my uncle take a look." After reading it, Ma Chengteng's expression changed when he saw Yueyao, and he sighed in Yueyao's anxiety: "Yueyao, why is it a daughter?" How nice it would be if it were a boy! ”

Yueyao sweated violently.
