The next morning, Xia Youran and Bai Ze went back, because they had to catch the plane that night, and this place was too remote, so they left so early in the morning. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Although Xia Youran planned to stay in that place for a few more days, at least make a cup or something and go back, but Bai Ze felt that this seemed to be a little too disturbing to other people's work, and this was not open to the public, it was a private studio, so he took Xia Youran back.

When Bai Xiao got up, the floor next to the bed had already been tidied up, and he looked at the time, it was only seven o'clock. If it weren't for the fact that he sat in the car for so long yesterday, it is estimated that he would not have slept so deadly, and he didn't even notice when the two of them left.

"Hey, Brother Ze?" Xiao had obviously seen the note they had left for him on the table, but this kind of goodbye made his heart feel empty, and he knew that it was better not to send it.

"Well, are you up now?" Bai Ze picked up the phone, and at this time they were already in the car to the town. Xia Youran was taking pictures of the nearby scenery with his mobile phone, anyway, he was already used to seeing her habit of taking materials by the way no matter where she went. I originally planned to rent a car to go out, but I didn't expect that there are buses in such remote places, of course, it is more broken, and it looks like a pile of rotten iron in walking.

"Are you going back now? How did you get back? "On the way here, Xiao also saw the remoteness and desolation here with his own eyes, although there is a living map of Brother Ze, but it is inevitable that he will have mother cancer.

"Didn't we go to the nearby aunt's house for dinner last night, Xia Youran knew from her when chatting with her that as long as you walk to the entrance of the village, there will be a shuttle bus to the town every hour, and it will take more than two hours to arrive, which is actually quite convenient!" Bai Zegan laughed twice, fortunately, Xiao was only planning to experience it for two months now, if he lived here for a long time, he would definitely feel very distressed.

"Oh, be careful on your way, and send me a message when you get home!" Xiao stood at the window and looked down, this kind of morning in the countryside is really quite deserted, there is no one on the road, this kind of life of not being recognized, being able to walk around at will, and talking casually seems to be quite exciting.

Although it is in the countryside, the equipment of the studio is quite complete, refrigerator, washing machine, air conditioner, TV are all available, and there is a separate bathroom, the only regret is that there is no wireless, can not be free to access the Internet.

"Knock knock......" He was stunned when someone knocked on the door outside.

"Got up?" Wen Xiyuan stood at the door and asked softly.

"Ahh

"After I got it, I went to my aunt's place for breakfast, and then I came directly to the studio!" After hearing what he had said, the sound of him coming down the stairs could be heard outside the house.

After Xiao quickly washed up, he hurried to the aunt, who had already put out the porridge he wanted to drink and hung it.

"It's really early to get up, it's Bai Xiao!" Looking at the appearance of the eldest aunt, it was obvious that she had already eaten, and the little grandson behind her, who was more than a year old and could walk, was a little afraid of seeing strangers, and poked out his little head from time to time to look at Xiao.

"En......" Xiao took a sip of porridge, the temperature was just right, as if she had calculated the time.

"If there is anything you can't eat or don't like to eat, tell me as soon as possible, just like Master Wen, peanut allergies almost caused a catastrophe!" The aunt laughed as if it hadn't happened.

"Peanut allergy?" Xiao's eyes widened, he had seen similar news in the report before, and it would cause shock if it was so serious, "And then, how is the master?" ”

"Although it was only a small sip, his face instantly became ugly, fortunately he had medicine with him at that time, otherwise it would be really terrible in this place!" The aunt picked up her little grandson, and the little ghost was so frightened that she buried her face in her arms, thinking that in this way others would not be able to see her.

"Oh, that's a blessing! I don't have any food allergies to, and I'm not a picky eater, so I just eat as I normally would! Xiao glanced at the little guy, and his reaction now was exactly the same as when he saw Ah Hao before, although he saw it from the video taken by his mother.

"What's your name?" The porridge was quickly drunk, and he was not in a hurry to go back, but was talking to the child.

"Quick, my brother is asking you what your name is, tell my brother what your name is?"

"Hao Hao, my name is Hao Hao!" Although he answered Xiao's question, he still didn't turn his face around.

“…… Ha ha...... It's so cute! Xiao smiled, "That Haohao, my brother is gone, don't hide like you do now next time you come!" With that, Xiao got up and walked to the studio.

As soon as he entered the studio, Xiao found that the master had already started to work, and the apron was splashed with mud everywhere, looking at him now, as if he was pulling the blank.

Because the master put all his attention on the mud ball, he didn't even notice Xiao coming in, Xiao always felt that his habit was very similar to someone, no wonder Brother Ze rarely appreciated it so much last night. He stood aside and carefully observed his movements and eyes, and enjoyed watching the whole process of his pottery making. It was a large vase, and the lines of the bottle were very smooth, and even if I was a layman, I felt that it must have taken a lot of effort to achieve this look.

"You're here?" After finally noticing Xiao's existence, he stopped the turntable, "I heard Lin Wei say that you want to learn pottery, so why do you want to learn pottery?" ”

"Just to pass the time, cultivate your interests or something!" Of course, he couldn't say that, he carefully observed the master's expression now, "I want to try the feeling of making porcelain with my own hands, I always feel very sacred and wonderful!" ”

"And how much do you know about porcelain?"

"......Well, in fact, Xiao originally planned to make some flower pots by himself, how could he think of such a lofty thing, and the master happened to be Lin Wei's friend and a child, and by the way, he was introduced, how could there be such a complicated process."

"That is, I don't know much about it, I don't know what the process is, and I don't know how to judge the quality of porcelain?" Wen Xiyuan dipped his hand into the bucket next to him, "Have you ever learned calligraphy or Chinese painting?" ”

"I have learned a little bit ...... Why, why does there be a feeling of an interview, Xiao swallowed his saliva, don't look at the master who seems to be very casual, he may be very strict.

"What about carving or something?"

"No ......" Xiao suddenly felt that he was a little useless, he was obviously quite satisfied with himself before, but here, none of the things he had learned before were useful.

"Pottery is actually a combination of many techniques in it, some people spend a lifetime without studying thoroughly, and they can only learn the surface in two months, but I will still do my best to teach you. So now I'll start with the basics! As he spoke, he took out a roll of mud from his bag, "This is a relatively cheap duan mud, because you are a beginner, so in order not to waste it, use this practice first." ”

Wen Xiyuan didn't rush to rub the mud after taking it out, but turned around and went not far away to get a clean apron and handed it to Xiao, "If you stay here for a day, it will inevitably get dirty, so put it on, although it's mine, it's already washed!" ”

"Oh, thank you!" Xiao took the apron and put it on, although the apron had been washed, there were still some stains left. There was also a relatively clean apron of a slightly larger size hanging on the wall, as if someone had used it for someone.

"We first start to knead the mud evenly, just like we will knead the dough when we make buns, we have to knead all the bubbles in the soil, if we don't do it, it will be damaged when drawing the blank or cause the porcelain to burst when firing, it looks simple and tasteless, but it is the most important step in the whole process!" As he spoke, he briefly demonstrated how to knead the mud, and then asked Xiao to come over and try it.

The texture of flour and mud is slightly different, and the density of mud seems to be greater, although I have also helped Xia Youran knead flour to make dumpling wrappers before, but it is still a little different. After kneading for half an hour, he felt that his hands were about to break, "Master, is the mud almost now?" ”

"When kneading the mud, you should be familiar with the mud, understand its dry and wet conditions, and don't be too anxious." Wen Xiyuan glanced at the state of the mud in Xiao's hand, and it seemed to be about the same, "It seems that you can put it on the turntable of the blank drawing machine, put it in the center of the turntable, and then put your hands on your thighs, and your eyes are perpendicular to the midpoint of the turntable of the blank drawing, just like this." ”

Xiao learned from Wen Xiyuan, and after putting the kneaded Duan mud on the turntable, he made the same posture as him.

"Next, turn on the switch and feel the ...... with your hands"

"Division...... Master...... I always feel that this soil seems to be shaking all the time, as if I can't control it......" After opening the turntable, the soil seemed to come to life, twisting and twisting uncontrollably, Wen Xiyuan had been watching from the side, seeing that he was so embarrassed, he couldn't help but help. He placed his hand on the outside of his hand and taught him how to control the force as he helped straighten the dirt.

"Keep your hands steady, don't follow the mud, and it's important to find the center! Just like now! ”

"Oh...... I seem to know a little! Xiao nodded, but to be honest, it was indeed a bit embarrassing to teach by hand, but fortunately, everyone was a man, and it was impossible to say who suffered. It was very easy to see him do it just now, and I didn't expect it to be so difficult just to control it.

Seeing that Xiao seemed to understand, Wen Xiyuan let go of his hand, but after a while, Xiao's mud was crooked again.

"Uh...... It's like this, keep your hands steady! He demonstrated it again, and this time, Xiaocai gradually found his senses, and did not let the mud crooked.

"Well, now that it's stable, what are you going to do after that?"

"The left hand is still the same as before, don't move, try to extend the thumb of your right hand down from the middle." Xiyuan was afraid that what he said was not detailed enough, so he walked around to Xiao and demonstrated it himself, "Don't stretch your hands too much, and reserve a place to use when you cut it out, if you go too down, it will be easy to leak." Next, you can practice it alone, and then you can try to pull your hand out gradually to make your favorite shape! ”

"Oh, got it!" With the current feel, Xiao gradually feels the sense of accomplishment of drawing. After the master briefly explained, he quickly went to work with his own affairs, Xiaoxiao tried several kinds of them, but none of them had the shape he liked, and in the end, the more persistent he was, the more strange the shape of the cup became.

"Is it a cup?" Xiyuan, who came back from a circle, couldn't help frowning after seeing Xiao's work, "Sure enough, some things still depend on talent, but being able to make it look like this is also a kind of talent!" ”

"Master ......" As soon as he saw Xiyuan, Xiao immediately cried and mourned, in front of the master, it was very embarrassing to make such a thing.

"Wait a minute...... I'll demonstrate it again! Xiyuan sat down on the blank drawing machine opposite Xiao, and after putting the mud on it, he talked about it again from beginning to end, especially when straightening the barrel and closing the mouth, especially pointing out the points to be paid attention to. Once something is formed, it has to be fine-tuned to perfect its appearance. After drying, cut it off with a tangent thread, and then take it out and put it on a rack to dry.

"After a few hours of drying, you can use tools to make the blank, and after the blank, you can pour water, that is, wash the dust off the cup with clean water, and prepare for the next process such as glazing. After the glaze is finished, the cup is placed in the kiln to fire, and after a few days of high temperature firing, the porcelain blank will be transformed into a fine porcelain. After introducing this, Xiao finally understood why the master said to himself at the beginning that he could only learn a little in two months.

After that, he followed the steps taught by the master to paint the blue and white pattern on his wonderful cup, and after the master helped to glaze it, he put it in the electric kiln with the blank made by the master to fire.

The next few days were almost all repetitive work, and he thought that the master was a legendary genius and thought that it would be relatively easy, but he didn't expect that he pursued perfection more than anyone else, was strict with himself, and spent a lot of time in the studio every day.

The summer nights in the countryside are cool, and if you sit at the door, you can get the wind, and fireflies will fly out of the grass from time to time.

"Master, won't you rest?" The so-called combination of work and rest, that is what Xia Youran often talks about, and it is also an excuse for her laziness.

"Isn't it a break like this?" Xiyuan chuckled a few times, he hadn't chatted with anyone else at this time for a long time, and to be honest, it felt a little strange.

"I mean you go out once in a while, and then change your mood or something, and you go to the studio early in the morning and sometimes work until late, doesn't that feel hard?" Although filming also has very difficult times, it can often be ended after a period of time, but long-term high-intensity work like he is now is not something that can be done casually.

"It's okay, I just moved here to change my mood, the hustle and bustle of the city is not suitable for me at all, as long as I can touch porcelain every day, my mood will become very good, like now is the most comfortable way of life for me!
