Chapter 323
In front of the desk, Mo Nan put away the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and asked Lei Xiao a very simple question first: "What is the purpose of grinding ink?" β
Lei Xiao laughed, although he had never eaten pork and had never seen a pig run, the genius baby went into battle: the black-bellied president was obedient! Looking at her stupid expression, it seemed that she had finally raised her eyebrows for a while, "Of course it's for writing!" β
Fang Monan smiled and shook his head: "Grinding ink is not for writing and painting, but for cultivating oneself and honing one's heart. Looking at his ignorant appearance, she continued, "Maybe you don't understand, I hope you remember the saying, 'Inhuman grinding ink grinding people'." β
Grinding ink seems simple, but in fact, it has extremely strict procedures and requirements, and it is not easy to sharpen ink well. Fang Menan instructed Lei Xiao, pour water into the inkstone, do not use tea or hot water, rather less than more. Then Lei Xiao picked up the ink block and began to grind, and Fang Monan kept telling him how to do it.
When grinding ink, we should pay attention to the straightness of the road, that is, when grinding the ink, it should be light and heavy, fast and slow, and Lei Xiao's standing posture should also be correct, and the ink block should be vertically circled on the inkstone, not obliquely grinding or pushing straight, and not grinding at will. As for the uniformity and rapidity of the force when grinding the ink, it is also very particular.
Fang Monan watched Lei Xiao grinding unhurriedly, with a correct posture and a correct attitude. The eyes are distracted, the thoughts are far away, and the current people have long been far away from paper and pen, let alone the ancient pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Even at this time, there was a red painting class in elementary school, and most of them used a whole bottle of ink, and they never grinded the ink by hand. Not to mention in later generations, computer typing has replaced writing, and people have reached the realm of forgetting to write.
After grinding for a while, Lei Xiao felt that his wrist was a little sore and stopped. Rub your wrists, don't underestimate the tiring grinding of ink.
Fang Mo Nan said, "Change hands, add some water." β
Lei Xiao did as he said. Changed to grinding ink with his left hand, "Whew!" It's so easy to watch ink grinding on TV, it's really hard to get your turn. β
"It's shallow on paper. I don't know how to do it. Fang Monan said slowly. It's not okay to have a low eye. β
"It's a drop! I didn't know until I did it myself. Lei Xiao nodded.
Fang Monan continued in order to make Lei Xiao motivated, "Only by grinding it with my own hands did I find that even if it was the same ink block and the same inkstone, the juice that came out of the grinding was unusually thick and thin, and it was not the same thickness. Some are full and hearty, while others are cold and jerky. It is really not written yet, and the good and the bad have been seen. Dabao and Erya used to grind not as good as you! β
"Hey...... Is it! Lei Xiao said happily. Hearing that the two little ones are not as good as themselves, I am in a very good mood, as if I have finally surpassed them, naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve thoughts.
But it works very well, see Lei Xiao is working harder.
Fang Menan continued. The word "qi" in calligraphy should be started from the time of laying paper and grinding ink. The so-called adjusting the breath evenly and holding the breath should be completed one by one in the process of spreading paper and grinding ink. Feel it and you'll get something out of it. β
"Hmm!" Lei Xiao nodded, he thought that grinding ink was just a prelude to this move, but he didn't expect that it was actually an introduction that could not be neglected at all.
Fang Monan said, "Okay, this is just right!" The ink is moderately polished. Not too strong or too light. Let's start painting red! Let's start with the strokes. β
Fang Monan handed Lei Xiao a book of red letters, on which the strokes were also drawn horizontally, vertically, apostrophe, and how to start and close the pen, which was simple and easy to learn.
"Looks like we're just in time!" Dabao and Erya pushed the door and came in.
The two of them automatically stood on a small stool and drew large characters in red, but fortunately, the mahogany bookcase was large enough to accommodate the three of them. The two little ones took out the inkstone from the box. The ink inside is not dry and cracked, and it can still be used. The three of them began to paint red.
Fang Monan said, "The purpose of painting red is not to paint red, but to understand the structure of the red mold characters, and even the spirit in the text, and finally form a font with its own style, and even unique calligraphy." This is the original meaning of "painting red". β
Ay! Saying that these estimates are just the wind in the ears, or practice makes perfect, and the stupidest method is just a lot of hard practice.
"Knock knock ......" There was a knock on the door, and Grandma pushed the door in, "Nannan, Uncle Da Chengzi and they are here." β
"Oh!" Fang Monan said to the three little beans, "Okay, let's go here today and play some games!" "It's still snowing outside, and you can't get out.
"Wow...... Okay! "Dabao and Erya quickly packed up their things, and that speed is called fast! Lei Xiao did not show weakness and his movements were not slow!
The game that Fang Monan said was Contra, a family game console, which was all the rage, Fang Monan also played it when he was a child, and when he first played it, his fingers were blistered, it really hurt! But there's a lot of care, and it's all about having fun, which is so attractive. And now that Fang Mo has fought the Nantong Pass, the attraction is not so great. Only unknown levels can catch the player's eye.
This kind of game can't be stopped, it's better to be blocked, Fang Menan gave them enough time, but since the three little guys were led by Fang Menan to finish clearing the level, their attractiveness has naturally decreased a lot.
The three little ones scurried into the living room and played skillfully. Fang Monan also followed them down, and Da Chengzi's family was already sitting in the living room.
"Cousin, aunt, stone is good! It's snowing heavily, and it's not easy to walk on the road. Fang Menan smiled and sat on the sofa.
"Hey...... The snow is falling and the road is not too slippery, but we are not afraid of snow chains on our cars! Daseiko smiled. It's not about to be the New Year, send some souvenirs over, it's not worth a few dollars, it's all our own production. β
Dachengzi sends back some local specialties every New Year's holiday, including home-woven coarse cloth, cloth shoes, pecans, persimmons, etc., and the gift is light and affectionate.
Mom brought the tea and put it in front of Da Chengzi one by one, "Drink tea!" Da Chengzi and the others got up and took the tea.
"O stone! How about at Kyungseo University! Adaptation is not. I don't think you're much thinner than at home. Grandma frowned and said, "Is it because the school food is not good, or Da Chengzi didn't give you enough living expenses!" Look at your skinny one. β
"Auntie, how can you! He's my son, and I can still owe him. Daseiko argued with a smile in her face.
"Grandma! It has nothing to do with my dad, I went out to work and study. The stone patted his chest, rolled up his arms again, and his muscles came out, "It's strong!" β
"Look! It's still Da Chengzi who treats you badly, and he has gone out to work to earn money. Grandma glanced at him complainingly.
"Yes! Auntie, you said it well, and the father and son, our family is not without money, shouldn't students focus on their studies? Li Mei said as if she had found reinforcements, she was all the same mother, and she was always afraid that her child would be wronged when she went out, but she didn't expect her child to find fault by herself.
"Auntie, Mom, my dad gave me enough money, and I want to be independent." The stone looked at Fang Mo Nan and said, "Compared to Sister Nan, I'm still far behind. β
"Young people, it's time to hone yourself and learn more in social university." Old Man Lin smiled, "I support you." β
When Grandma heard him say that her precious granddaughter said with a smile, "No one can compare with my family." She thought for a moment and said, "Stones! You have to take it easy and pay attention to your body! β
"Hey! Auntie, I know it. Stone said with a smile.
"I'll stay at home to eat today, and after eating, I'll just stay overnight, it's not easy to walk in the snow, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow morning." Grandma continued, "Try Nannan's craftsmanship. β
"Okay! We weren't going to leave. Seiko joked with a smile. Listen to my aunt. β
"Okay, I'll cook." Fang Monan got up and said.
Da Chengzi pushed his lover Li Mei, "Let your aunt give you a hand." β
"No, you don't! How can you let Ame do it! Mom stopped and said, "I'll go and help Nannan." β
Li Mei still stood up and said with a smile, "I'll go to Nannan to steal the teacher, this time Sister Dayan won't refuse!" β
Fang Monan first wrote a note and asked Xiao Ash to hand it to Qiu Lian, they needed to solve the dinner by themselves, and there were guests at home. γ
Home-cooked dishes for dinner, stir-fried bacon with dried radish, bacon, spicy chicken wings, vinegared cabbage, crispy donkey meat with red oil, shredded fish-flavored pork, taro steam-pot chicken, black pepper beef tenderloin, sour and hot shredded potatoes, and small crispy fish.
"Wow...... Compared to Nannan, I can't watch cooking. Li Mei sighed, "But I also learned a lot of cooking tips." β
Mom and Li Mei took out the finished ones one by one, "It's time to eat." β
The fat man's family also walked in, and after greeting Da Chengzi and them, the people in the living room walked to the dining room one after another, "It's so hearty, it's so fragrant!" The stone said and wanted to pinch it.
'Bang ......' Li Mei slapped the sand palm on the stone's head. "What do you want to look like, it's not like Dabao and Erya to study, wash your hands."
"Mom, save me some face." Stone said shyly.
"Okay, it's all your own people who are embarrassed." Li Mei said. The stone obediently went to wash his hands, and everyone laughed, no matter what, they will always be children in front of these people.
"Alright, let's eat." Grandma saw that everyone was coming, so she spoke.
The meal was lively, and the fat man and Da Chengzi chatted while eating, of course, they talked more about work. After eating, Lei Xiao was picked up by Bai Qing who came on foot.
After dinner, the dining table was a mess, and it was cleaned up by my mother and Li Mei. A few old people and Jian Huixin played with Dabao and Erya. Fat Man, Da Chengzi, Shi Shi and Fang Monan entered the study.
The four of them sat down, and Da Chengzi saw the kung fu tea set on the coffee table and took the initiative to brew kung fu tea.
"Yo! Da Chengzi also learned to make kung fu tea. The fat man quipped.
"Huh...... Follow what you guys learned! Da Cheng Zi kept talking, "I gradually like to make my own kung fu tea." The left hand and the right hand are constantly working backwards and down. Thinking is empty. I also know what I'm doing and don't remember what I've done. Only the strong aroma of tea, through the taste buds, through the heart. Let your restless heart calm down and stop being arrogant. (To be continued.)
