Chapter 31: Smile to Warmth
For a long time, Ansu hoped that this was just a nightmare, and when he woke up, the little monk was still in the Myofa Temple. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis memory is extremely painful for both An Su and Xiang Hui, who were both forced to grow up overnight. If Xiang Hui has been carrying a heavy cross since then, then An Su is carrying the hatred that her heart has not yet been able to bear. The latter is far more terrifying than the former. Resentment towards loved ones, hatred for perpetrators, and resentment against social injustice are beyond the burden on the soul of a child at this age. In this period, if no one around them cares and guides them, it is likely to lead them to extremes. Fortunately, Ansu met a mentor and friend during this period, that is, He Xiangnuan.
Ansu was admitted to a regular high school in City G. In the last half semester of the third year of junior high school, she almost didn't go to school, even if she was not in school, so it was inevitable that she was not admitted to a key middle school. In this regard, Liu Hui did not demand too much, because her daughter had experienced such a big blow, and she was already satisfied that she could return to her normal life now. When she went to high school, Ansu asked for boarding and didn't want her mother to be by her side. Although Liu Hui was not at ease, An Su's attitude was very resolute, and she had no choice but to obey.
Not long after the start of school, a notice was posted on the notice board of the school, to the effect that in order to enrich the students' extracurricular life, the school will hold an art interest class, with college students from art colleges in G city as instructors, and all students who are interested in art can sign up for free.
After seeing the notice, everyone wondered that since the school held interest classes, it should hold more classes, such as English, dance, musical instruments, sports, etc. Why just art? That's too limiting. Later, there was gossip that the school did not plan to hold this interest class, but the art teachers of the school volunteered to teach the students for free in order to participate in social practice, so the school held such an art interest class. Anyway, the school only needs to provide a place to teach, and does not need other funds and resources, and can allow students to cultivate their interests, so why not? The teacher of this interest class is He Xiangnuan, and this is how An Su met him.
Ansu signed up for the art class, which was unexpected by everyone. First, An Su is a withdrawn person in the eyes of everyone; The second reason is that art is different from others, and the people who sign up for it are basically people with a foundation, and learning art in that era was also a big expense for ordinary families. In everyone's eyes, Ansu's family seemed to be unable to afford it.
G City is not as small as the previous city, and the girls here are all dressed up brightly. Although the school requires uniforms to be worn, on weekends the girls change back into their beautiful clothes. Ansu, who grew up in the countryside, is as earthy as ever, always wears those old clothes, and lives a frugal life. While the girls in the dormitory were chattering about the most fashionable outfits of the moment, she always stayed quietly and never participated. At first, everyone only thought that she was poor and had low self-esteem and did not participate in their chat. Later, everyone found that whether it was in the class or the dormitory, she hardly interacted with anyone, and she didn't take the initiative to talk to anyone unless someone asked her, and she was a loner in school. Both teachers and students think that Ansu is a withdrawn person.
Everyone didn't expect that such a withdrawn person would sign up for the event, and what surprised everyone even more was that she had profound Chinese painting skills, which was not inferior to the students of the Academy of Fine Arts. Even He Xiangnuan didn't expect this.
Although the students in the interest class are not particularly lively, they are quite willing to communicate with the teacher, and He Xiangnuan also pays attention to the interaction with the students. That year, He Xiangnuan was just a sophomore, and he was full of vitality like all the college students, and he quickly got along with the students. This teacher, who majored in oil painting, is not as flamboyant as other painters, but more elegant and introverted, and as his name suggests, he makes people feel very warm when he laughs, coupled with his handsome appearance and slender figure, which is very popular with students. The students all regarded him as a big brother and were very willing to communicate with him, but Ansu was an exception.
An Su was the first student to catch He Xiangnuan's attention, in addition to her amazing Chinese painting skills, she was unsociable. She doesn't have a trace of the vitality that a teenager of this age should have, and some are just gloomy and cold. If you look closely, you will find that there is also a kind of resentful coldness in her eyes, and a trace of sadness that is not easy to detect. This discovery made He Xiangnuan feel distressed. If there is also precocious cynicism among teenagers, then how can the sadness that can only be revealed by those who have gone through vicissitudes appear prematurely on the face of a high school girl.
What kind of experience was that?
When He Xiangnuan saw An Su for the first time, his eyes unconsciously followed her. He always approached her intentionally or unintentionally, but she always had a rejecting attitude. In art classes twice a week, she always came to class silently and left quietly. In the face of other students' questions, he always gave detailed answers and demonstrated to everyone. At the same time, he will always tell everyone that no matter what kind of questions they have, everyone can ask them, and he will definitely do his best to answer them for everyone. But Ansu never asked any questions. If she doesn't ask questions, she doesn't speak at all.
Speaking of which, He Xiangnuan is really a good teacher who knows how to teach students according to their aptitude. At the beginning, I conducted a thorough survey of the students, and found that except for An Su, the worst of the other students were all sketching skills, and An Su only learned Chinese painting from Master Zhishan since he was a child, and did not systematically learn art knowledge. This is different from other students. Therefore, he instructs each student according to their level of proficiency. Ansso, on the other hand, started from the basics of drawing and perspective. Soon, he discovered that Ansu was extremely talented in art, and he was very easy to learn and made very rapid progress. This is also because she has excellent Chinese painting skills, which is the so-called one reason and all reason. Gradually, as long as it comes to art issues, An Su is also willing to communicate with He Xiangnuan. Such a change made He Xiangnuan feel very happy. In fact, if An Su cared more about the people or things around her, she would find that He Xiangnuan spent much more effort on her than other students.
For every homework handed in by Ansu, He Xiangnuan looked at it very carefully, and carefully guided it one by one, whether it was structure, technique, or conceptual things. He often looks for questions in Ansu's works, hoping to find the key to open the door to her heart. He found that Ansu's sketching ability was strong and his color sensitivity was extremely high, but his mastery of color matching was lacking. In this regard, he also focuses on guidance. At the same time, he also approached Ansu under the pretext that he wanted to learn the techniques of Chinese painting.
Because he studied oil painting and didn't understand the techniques of Chinese painting, he was also very interested in Chinese painting and hoped that An Su could teach her. But An Su was puzzled, He Xiangnuan wanted to learn Chinese painting, and she could learn it in school, which was more formal than what she had learned. But He Xiangnuan told him that the current academy focuses on techniques, while An Suxue's focuses on expressiveness. He had seen Ansu's Chinese paintings, and he was very surprised that he had such expressiveness at such a young age.
This is not difficult to understand, because Venerable Zhishan is an outsider, his paintings focus on artistic conception, and his works often contain Zen. An Su has been learning art from Master Zhishan since she was a child, and the environment she is in is also a temple far away from the red dust, and she is in contact with people outside the party, and her works will naturally be different from the academic school. That's where the amazing part becomes.
In this way, An Su and He Xiangnuan corresponded more and more frequently, and gradually became friends. As the friendship between the two grows deeper, Ansu finally opens up to him.
An Su was very glad that she met He Xiangnuan in the darkest days, and it was he who guided her to gradually walk back to the road full of sunshine.
He Xiangnuan said that the sentence "Smile to the warmth, peace and security" contains the names of the two of them, and I hope they can live in this world like this.
