191 Relax by playing pottery
Shen Ruchu said, it's no wonder, Mama Xi belongs to the "elders of the Three Dynasties" in the Tang family, and it is normal to have a little posture, and said with a smile: "Mama is a capable and rigorous person at first glance, and she deserves our respect." ”
Tang Tianrui muttered: "When she manages you, you know that she is not only rigorous, but also harsh!" ”
Shen Ruchu said: "How can you be a man, how can you like to speak ill of people behind your back!" ”
Tang Tianrui said: "I said bad things? I'm a master, and I can speak ill of others! Don't always look down on me! ”
"He didn't arrange anyone, Mama Xi is really strict, she brought up three of our brothers and sisters, and she is very strict with us, which is deeply my father's heart! My eldest brother and I are okay, more obedient, and very well-behaved, someone is miserable! Tang Mengyao said with a smile.
"Sister, I found out that you are now afraid that the world will not be chaotic! I'll go back and tell my brother-in-law to have a good talk with you! Tang Tianrui said with a straight face.
Shen Ruchu smelled a smell of gunpowder, and didn't provoke him, and said with a smile: "I won't argue with you!" Wait a minute, take you out of the hall to play, extinguish the fire. ”
"Really?" Tang Tianrui's eyes lit up.
Shen Ruchu said: "Naturally, it's true, what else am I lying to you little kid!" ”
Tang Tianrui hated his teeth and said, "You are not a worry-free person!" It's really three women in one play, well, life is better now, three women! ”
"Little San, you're wrong, the three of us can't sing a play, you, you have to find a girl quickly, and when you get married, you can sing the play, maybe there will be more than three women!" Shen Ruchu said with a smile.
Tang Mengyao said: "Marriage is a major event, the words of the matchmaker of your parents, Tianrui, you go back to the capital and let your father and mother make the decision for you, there are so many beautiful ladies, one is more beautiful than the other, and one is more virtuous than the other, I don't believe you can't look down on any of them." ”
Tang Tianrui said: "Oops." Sister, I'm annoyed enough! Are you adding fuel to the fire? I haven't made it yet, I haven't achieved anything, I don't want to marry! Besides, who wants to marry me like this? ”
Tang Mengyao smiled: "Okay, okay!" I won't say anything. Isn't Chu'er going to take you out to play? Still not going? Why don't you wait for Mama to come out and stop you? ”
Shen Ruchu led Songyue, and Tang Tianrui took the house slave Guansheng, and walked out of the gate of the palace family happily.
"It's getting late, we can't go too far. Just play nearby, I know that there is a good place to go. Shen Ruchu said with a smile.
Tang Tianrui disagreed, and said, "There are still good places I don't know?" Where is the third master in Anyang, I haven't been there? ”
Shen Ruchu stood still, clasped his hands, and said with a smile: "Have you really been there?" ”
Tang Tianrui said proudly: "Of course! As long as it's a fun place. ”
Shen Ruchu glanced at him with disdain, and said, "Just now I thought you were so ambitious, I thought you were so ambitious, now it seems that you are not busy with anything serious, you are all going to have fun!" ”
As she spoke, she saw Tang Tianrui's resentful eyes. smiled: "Okay, I see that you are in a bad mood today, cough cough, and you are so afraid of Mama Xi." I'll take you to play pottery. ”
"Pottery?" Tang Tianrui was surprised.
Shen Ruchu said with a smile: "Ahem, I just want to make vases, jars and the like, in short, according to my own preferences." ”
Tang Tianrui glared and said, "Make vases and jars?" Playing with mud? I think you're idle! I don't want it. It's dirty! ”
Shen Ruchu glanced at him with disdain and said, "The clay is very clean, and the clay in this shop is the best clay." Reddish-purple, very sticky, most suitable for ceramics. Come with me, it's fun, it's not pickled at all! And it is especially relaxing and making people feel happy. ”
Tang Tianrui followed Shen Ruchu two streets and arrived at a manor with the words "Taozhuang" written on it.
"Is this it? I really haven't been here yet! Tang Tianrui swaggered in, the door was unguarded, and the door was always open.
Shen Ruchu smiled: "You are the right one!" I'll take you to the shopkeeper. She walked through the second gate with ease, and there were guys guarding there, and when she saw Shen Ruchu, she smiled and said, "Madam, you are here again, are you still doing pottery?" ”
Shen Ruchu said: "Yes, I brought a friend here, where is your shopkeeper?" Take me to meet me. ”
The guy smiled: "The shopkeeper is still in the pottery room, where he is studying pottery!" It's been a day now. ”
"Your shopkeeper is really obsessed, no wonder the ceramic utensils made are so exquisite!" Shen Ruchu said with a smile.
Entering the special pottery room, Shen Ruchu introduced Tang Tianrui and the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper is a middle-aged man in his forties, slightly fat, but he looks like a serious and honest person, surnamed Li, three generations are doing pottery, I heard him say before, the first two generations barely make ends meet, to his generation to mix well, with this industry, there is not only a kiln specializing in firing ceramics, but also a small shop that sells pottery.
"Mrs. Wen, you're here! What do you want to try to do today? The shopkeeper smiled, put down the work in his hand, washed his hands, and instructed a fellow: "Go and serve tea to Mrs. Wen and this Tang Gongzi!" ”
Shen Ruchu smiled: "What will I do, it's just a mess!" Whatever you do, it's what you do! ”
"Oh, you can't say that! Madame, you are very talented, and you have strong hands-on ability, and although you make something that is not a traditional utensil, it is very creative. Last time I made a few imitations of the utensils you made and let the guy fire a few, and the sales were very good! Shopkeeper Li smiled.
Tang Tianrui raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Just playing with mud?" ”
Li Changgui smiled: "So to speak, Tang Gongzi. You just sit here and try it first, it's a lot of fun. ”
Tang Tianrui frowned, looked down at his white and tender hands, God, he had never touched such a slimy and dirty thing in his life, and said, "Those white and exquisite porcelain are fired from this thing?" No way? ”
Shopkeeper Li smiled: "Definitely!" Don't underestimate these clays. I'm mainly designing shapes and patterns here, so the clay I use is even better. ”
Shen Ruchu smiled: "Don't rub it off! Let's sit down and try it first, the soil is all from the high mountains and is very clean. You put your hand on it first and look for a feeling. I promise you'll be in a good mood when you're done. ”
"But I'm not going to do it." Tang Tianrui was electrocuted as if he put his hand on the puddle of thin mud, and hurriedly retracted it.
"You can't do it, there's Shopkeeper Li, he's an expert at making pottery! The big families in Anyang like to come to the pottery village to buy pottery, not to mention the cheapness, the quality and glaze are not inferior to the ceramics in the official kiln! ”
Shopkeeper Li rubbed his hands, smiled very plainly, and said: "It's very simple to do pottery, you don't rely on this to live, you can do whatever you want, according to your own heart." Come, I'll show you Childe - the current clay is all made well, you just need to pull the blank. Put your hands like this, don't be too stiff, take your time, turn gently, and slowly pull and turn according to the shape you want in your heart. ”
Tang Tianrui followed the movements he demonstrated, followed and learned, and Shopkeeper Li smiled: "Yes, that's it!" I've been doing it for many years, and I'm very familiar with it, and because I'm familiar with it, I can't do any tricks by racking my brains, you can also learn from Mrs. Wen, see how she does it, and find some inspiration. ”
Shen Ruchu smiled and said, "Don't learn from me, I'm not a qualified master." I'm fooling around. You follow me, you can't learn the real thing, do it for the first time, don't be too demanding of yourself. Let's listen to shopkeeper Li talk about the process first, which can be regarded as laying a foundation. She had already asked Matsutsuki to roll up her sleeves and pull a piece of clay herself to rub there.
Shopkeeper Li smiled: "Tang Gongzi, why don't I tell you about the process of making pottery?" ”
Tang Tianrui became interested, and was immersed in studying there, without thinking about it, and said with a smile: "Then you can talk about it." He was rubbing the clay and playing hard.
Shopkeeper Li said with a smile: "This is to make ceramics, the first step is to pan mud, don't underestimate this work, as the first process of porcelain making mud is extremely critical, good soil to see whether the viscosity is enough, the color seems to be positive, whether it contains sand." The so-called clay is to scoop the porcelain clay into usable porcelain clay. This second step is the stacking of clay - the porcelain clay that has been washed is not immediately usable, it must be divided and stacked into columns for easy storage and drawing. ”
Shen Ruchu smiled and said: "You also listen to it, learn some knowledge, don't underestimate this craft!" ”
"I don't dare! I'm going to have to try something you're so excited about! Tang Tianrui said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Li said with a smile: "This third step is what the son and his wife are doing, that is, drawing the blank: put the stacked porcelain clay into the large turntable, and by rotating the turntable, use your hands and drawing tools to draw the porcelain clay into a porcelain blank. Then there is the printing blank: the porcelain blank is only a prototype, and it is also necessary to select different impressions according to the shape to be done to print the porcelain blank into various shapes. Because the blank that has just been printed is uneven, thin and thick, it is necessary to repair the printed blank neatly and evenly through the process of repairing the blank, which is the repair of the blank. ”
Tang Tianrui raised his head and said with a smile: "Heh, it sounds quite complicated." It's just that I'm doing things back and forth, turning around, and it's still a puddle of mud......" He looked at Shen Ruchu unwillingly, Shen Ruchu's hand turned dexterously, and the porcelain clay in his hand had slowly taken on a shape.
"Take your time, I've told you, don't be in a hurry. Remember, you're not here to be an apprentice, you're not here to learn a craft, relax! Relax. Shen Ruchu said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Li smiled: "Yes, Mrs. Wen is right, the son doesn't have to be anxious, take your time, after all, it's the first time, everything is difficult at the beginning." Shall I move on to the process? ”
Tang Tianrui smiled: "Then you can continue." Anyway, I'm going to make something out of this lump of mud, even if it's a scoop! I don't believe in this evil anymore! (To be continued......)
