Chapter 64: Good Seedlings
The exam questions came out quickly, and it was really simple, requiring a character drawing.
All the people present can be models.
The examiner smiled and said, "There are no other requirements, you can draw as much as you want." ”
The other also smiled: "It's our Lao Zhang who is responsible for scoring, he doesn't know anything about his problems, the more distinctive the characters he paints, the more he likes it, the higher the score, you students look at it." ”
A group of students burst into laughter, but the atmosphere was relaxed.
There is plenty of time, even if you are meticulous and think carefully, two days and one night are enough.
Hongchen was not in a hurry, first beckoned the Lu family to escort her subordinates, kittens and foxes to remove the tables and chairs of the academy, pile them in the corners, and put their own tables and chairs in place, the table is beveled, and there is an extra wooden clip on it, which can fix the drawing paper.
I made a bunny fur cushion and stuffed it into the chair, and the whole person shrunk into it comfortably.
The examination room did not provide pen, ink, paper and inkstone, she just got a batch of new ones, and moved in directly to use them.
Other candidates were also busy preparing, but she was still the most eye-catching, after all, everything else was left, and even the tables and chairs were brought over by their own families, which was too much, and many students looked sideways.
Lao Guo also stood behind him, and he didn't feel slandered: I don't know where I learned to be poor!
Pay attention to whether you pay attention to it or not, anyway, the examiner keeps his mouth shut and doesn't say a word, and there are many people who can read and paint, and there are many personalities, so in today's examination room, the examiners only look at the candidates' actions.
This is based on real skills, in front of everyone's eyes. No matter how much preparation you do in advance, whether the final drawing is good or bad will not change.
You can use fine pen and ink paper.
You can also sit in the most comfortable chair.
However, the things drawn are not necessarily better than those of students who only use ordinary rice paper to paint, and the examiner still has this eyesight, and it is impossible to let foreign objects affect his evaluation.
It's just a little bit, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, calligraphy and painting are also extremely elegant, only elegant people can become famous and become a family, with Xue Tao paper, ten color paper to write. When others look at it, they will look at it from their hearts. With Chengxintang paper calligraphy and painting, others will be impressed, you first bathe in incense before painting, and have your own set of rules. Others can't help but be solemn when they see it. Therefore, the candidates naturally spend a lot of time on foreign objects. In other words, everyone is very good at pretending!
For a while, the entire examination room was no different from the spring banquet of the literati gathering in the capital. The elegance is overflowing.
Even so, the candidates secretly admired Hongchen's calm and relaxed posture, and always felt that she was pretending to be extremely natural, not at all like pretending.
After the preparation is completed, the candidates still have to pay attention to it and paint seriously.
Hongchen also picked up the pen, didn't stand out from the crowd, and chose Mr. Zhang, who was standing in front of the window and watching the scenery, to paint.
It is estimated that among the students present, at least half of them want to draw a picture of Mr., purely this Mr. Zhang looks very distinctive, relatively easy to paint, he has a high nose bridge, deep facial features, half hundred and half black hair, and he also likes wide robes and wide sleeves when wearing clothes, which makes him fairy.
Hongchen has been learning to paint recently, and has worshiped several gentlemen in the Yujue space, and the current way of painting is different, she first learned sketching, which is more realistic, similar to gongbi painting, and later learned three-dimensional painting.
Now her level is not very bad, according to those powerful people, because she has a foundation at the beginning, she learns quickly, and her hands are still steady, and now she is also the level of a painting teacher.
Now it is naturally difficult for her to draw characters, in fact, she will also paint the kind of character portraits that everyone often paints, the lines are soft, and the charm is emphasized, but everyone paints like this, her level is not very high, and she can't draw everyone's demeanor, and this time there is plenty of time, in order to make her grades look better, she still plans to show her learning results.
I have painted many times at home, and I am tired and panicked when the paper I practice is burning, but this is the first time I have drawn it to others.
Mr. Zhang didn't come closer, but only looked at it from a distance, and when he saw her focused eyes, he stroked his beard and smiled, turned his head and said to Lao Guo: "Don't be angry, I think this child is good, he is a good seedling." ”
Lao Guo rolled his eyes and didn't say anything.
The more Mr. Zhang looked, the more he felt that it was good, people came late, that was confident, people paid attention to preparing their own tables and chairs, and that was also people who took the exam seriously.
What you are used to using is naturally more convenient to use, and it is more comfortable to draw.
Hongchen really used it well, carefully outlining the lines, the more she draws, the smoother it becomes, she is conspicuous among the candidates in this session, as soon as she moves the pen, the other candidates can't help but glance at it a few times.
It's just that she paints like this, and she doesn't see anything at first!
Hong Wenbin also painted very hard, when he was a child, his family conditions were okay, not how rich he was, but in the end he could support him to study, at that time I didn't dare to say that he learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so he invited a gentleman to teach calligraphy and painting.
As a result, the family was in a slump later, not to the point of not being able to eat, but it was also a food.
He still remembers that one year when the family didn't have new clothes to change in the summer, his father secretly took his cotton clothes to the pawnshop to pawn, so that he could buy a good dress that would not lose face, so that he could wear it out to socialize.
If you want to practice calligraphy at home, you have to write the words very small, and you don't want to waste any paper.
It's so difficult, but there are some benefits, Hong Wenbin has been reading and learning more seriously than others since he was a child, and if he has the opportunity to practice painting, he can't wait to use all his strength.
In this way, his achievements are naturally not bad.
In this exam, his spirit doubled and he played at a super level, and he felt that the paintings he drew were not much worse than those of the gentleman who taught him to draw.
Taking a deep breath, Hong Wenbin was full of pride, swept around, and as time passed, the candidates finally drew almost, and gradually could see the good and bad, he looked at it, and felt that his painting could almost come out on top!
Then as soon as he turned his head, he saw Jiang Hongchen.
Jiang Hongchen is obviously almost finished, carrying a small tea cup of celadon in one hand, and a piece of dim sum in the other, chewing slowly.
The paper on the table still smells of ink.
At first glance, Hong Wenbin was taken aback.
In front of the half-open window, Mr. Zhang was lying there, one hand sticking out of the window, his eyes shining, every fold on his face, every strand of hair vivid.
If it weren't for the fact that he looked too small, he would almost have thought it was a real Mr. Zhang.
Hong Wenbin suddenly felt a trace of depression in his heart, unspeakably uncomfortable, and when he looked at his paintings, he suddenly felt that it was not so good.
It's okay, that guy is just a little similar, Mr. Zhang's majesty is not shown, so frivolous, Mr. must not like it.
And he was right.
Usually people draw figure paintings, most of them are very serious, and there are very few hippie smiles.
At present, there are a room of candidates, and the demeanor of Mr. Zhang is almost the same, if you want to talk about the difference, it is just that some people have better painting skills, and some people have worse painting skills.
Hong Wenbin took several deep breaths and gritted his teeth, still uneasy.
No matter how many excuses he made for himself, he saw that many candidates around him were peeking over, and their eyes were full of amazement, and he couldn't let go of his heart.
This exam is too important for him.
Among all the assessment items, calligraphy and painting are what he is best at, and he is also determined to get high scores.
Others, riding and archery, he can only say that he can walk on a horse, he didn't even have a horse at home before, let alone a bow and arrow, and only relied on spending money to rent other people's practice for more than a month before the exam, where can he expect a high score?
The piano skills are still reluctant, but the gentleman who taught him back then said that no matter how skillful he practiced, he was only a craftsman!
The strategy has been examined, he writes decently, but the topic is so obscure, and Guo Shanchang personally reads the papers, he has already inquired about Guo Shanchang, who has a rebellious temperament, and easily does not praise students, so that there are a lot of people who are scolded and crying every year, and it is extremely difficult to get a dazzling score from his hand!
Hong Wenbin lowered his head, he participated in this final assessment in order to be in the limelight, and it is easy to get ahead when he has fame.
As long as the results are good this time, whether it is staying in Yanshan Academy, or taking the opportunity to climb other high branches, it is not bad, it can be said that it can be attacked, retreated, and defended, he has considered it many times, but no matter what he thinks, the premise is to get an outstanding score first!
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became!
Little by little, time passed.
Even when it was time to eat, Hong Wenbin ate absent-mindedly.
He always thought that maybe Jiang Hongchen's painting behind her was bad, and she might not be able to draw well, but things were always unsatisfactory, and the more that person painted, the more frightening it became.
In such a complex painting, she even has the leisure to carefully depict the mottled shadows on the window edges, which shows how leisurely she is.
Finally, Mr. Zhang knocked on the table and said with a smile: "It's time, come, gentlemen help collect the masterpieces of our future talents." ”
The candidates were not as chaotic as in the ordinary examination room, and when the gentleman spoke, they all stood up and handed in their papers.
Hongchen rubbed his shoulders, also a little anxious.
She has received a cart of treasures outside and has not yet taken inventory, and besides, she doesn't know what the so-called task reward looks like in that bag of spiritual rice seeds!
As soon as she cleaned up the scroll, a dark shadow suddenly pounced, clanged, and fell on her desk.
"Ahh
The thick black ink splashed instantly.
Hongchen's hands are bright and fast, and she can block them casually, but these are all ink, flowing, and she can't block them.
A good painting was suddenly stained with ink.
There was a sudden silence in the examination room, and Hongchen's gaze bypassed a fat candidate lying on the table with a confused face, and landed on Hong Wenbin, who was not far from him.
Hong Wenbin's brain buzzed, trying his best to calm down, but his face was still a little unnatural, and he didn't know what was going on with him, so he suddenly stretched out his feet...... He didn't want to do that! (To be continued......)
