Fifty-five, the mother's labor
On the third day after going to Zhenqing Taoist Institute to watch the camellias, the "Huan Yi Gift Flute Picture" of the Wei Association was completed, and it took 20 days before and after, Chen Caozhi observed the whole process of Wei Shi painting this painting, from the idea, composition, brush, ink, color, until the final cleaning up of the whole painting, the process of observation is a complete learning process, Gu Kaizhi said that he learned to paint from Wei Shi for four years, and there were no more than ten complete observations like this, because Wei Shi's painting time span is extremely long, such as the "Lengyan Seven Buddhas" painted for more than three months.
Observing this painting, Chen Caozhi benefited a lot, his previous Western landscape painting angle was narrow, this is the first time to have a complete and detailed understanding of panoramic composition painting, found that color is more difficult than ink, Wei Shi color only vermilion, garcinia cambogia, cyan three colors, but presented on the picture is extremely rich, this is by no means a year and a half can experience and master ah.
In the past half a month, Chen Caozhi has also painted three flower pictures, and after the Wei Association finished painting the "Huan Yi Gift Flute Picture", he submitted these three exercises for the advice of the Wei Shi, and the Wei Xie slightly pointed out some deficiencies and defects after reading it, and said: "The painting is divided into six doors, characters, houses, landscapes, pommel horses, flowers and birds, ghosts and gods, you can start with flowers and birds first, and gradually go to houses and landscapes, and if you want to paint characters, you should start with ghosts and godsββ"
Gu Kaizhi on the side said with a smile: "It's easy to draw ghosts, but it's hard to draw people." β
Wei Xie laughed, handed over the "Huan Yi Gift Flute Picture" to Chen Caozhi, and said: "Caozhi, if you bring this painting to Lu Yuanjun, you will say that the old and sick body has not healed, and it is inconvenient to go in person, so you will forward it." Then he asked, ", do you know the purpose of painting this painting for the teacher?" β
Chen Caozhi saluted deeply: "It's the Wei Shi who brings up the Cao Zhi, and the Wei Shi is kind-"
Wei Xie waved his hand and smiled: "You and I are masters and apprentices, don't talk about those - Lu Na has a wide range of contacts, and the people who come and go are all high-ranking officials and wealthy families, I asked you to present this picture to Lu Na, that is, to create prestige for you, you are from a poor family, and if you want to be famous, you have to work harder than the children of the Shi clan." β
Like Ge Hong, the Health Association has a deep sense of cherishing Chen Caozhi's talents, and does not want to see such a studious and intelligent young man succumbing to the bottom because of his family, and always wants to support him.
β¦β¦
The next day was another school day, Chen Caozhi went to see Lu Na with "Huan Yi's Gift of Flute Map", Lu Na was amazed, and called his nephew Lu Yu, son Lu Changsheng, and Lu Weirui to admire, Lu Yu still looked disdainful, because his uncle was here, he didn't directly ridicule him.
Chen Caozhi saw Lu Weirui's brother Lu Changsheng for the first time, Lu Changsheng was in his twenties, he was like a wood, and his soul was not guarded, this terminally ill appearance made Chen Caozhi secretly surprised, and said in his heart: "Lu Yuanjun knows that I have learned from Master Ge, if I am asked to heal his son Lu Changsheng, then I will be caught off guard, I only know a few home remedies." β
Fortunately, Lu Na only talked about calligraphy and painting, not anything else, and Lu Changsheng only sat for a while, and then left with Lu Fowl.
Lu Na said: ", I have invited well-known painters from the five counties near the county town to bring their winter moon flower and tree paintings to the county on the 19th of next month, and gather in my Lu Mansion Cherish Garden, poems and paintings with wine, and talk about the romance - I also specially sent someone to invite Mr. Zhang Mo to come here, and Mr. Wei Xie will be the judge of this winter moon flower and tree painting collectionββ"
Lu Weirui said: "But Daddy, Mr. Zhang Mo and Mr. Wei Xie are at odds." β
Lu Na is a celebrity and gentleman, and he doesn't care about these, and said with a smile: "I want to see how the two of them will disagree together, at most, let the two of them each sit on their own thrones and judge the paintings, so that both of them will be energetic and more thoughtful." β
When Chen Caozhi said goodbye, Lu Na said: "Caozhi, I haven't appreciated the wonderful sound of your recorder, please bring Ke Tingdi to play for me on the next school day." β
Lu Weirui said: "Let's go to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion of my Cherishing Garden, where there is a stone boat near the water, which is suitable for playing the flute." β
Chen Caozhi agreed, came out of the Lu Mansion, drove through the streets and alleys of the county town by ox cart, and when he went out of the west gate, Ran Sheng, who was following the car, suddenly said: "Xiao Langjun, it's so strange, the ox cart of the little lady of the Lu family is following behind!" β
Chen Caozhi smiled slightly, and said to Laide: "Go to Zhenqing Daoist Academy." β
Sure enough, it was Lu Weirui who came, and she just said goodbye to Chen Caozhi in the mansion, but she always felt that there seemed to be something she hadn't done today, and then she thought about it, it turned out that she didn't go to Zhenqing Taoist Temple to see the camellias, didn't she go every three days? So he drove there.
Chen Caozhi smiled and waited under the cypress tree in front of the Taoist courtyard, Lu Weirui got out of the car, saw Chen Caozhi's tall figure like a jade tree, somehow panicked, and said, "Oh, are you here too?" β
This sentence seemed to span thousands of years, making Chen Caozhi feel in a trance, as if a heavy silk curtain was slowly opened in his heart.
β¦β¦
In the early morning of winter, the quilt is warm, listening to the whistling of the north wind blowing through the roof of the grass house, secretly worrying that the thatched roof will be lifted off by the cold wind, it seems that lying in the quilt is the safest and most comfortable, at this time it takes a certain amount of perseverance to get up.
Chen Caozhi got up, reached out to take the thin cotton robe, but it was not next to the pillow, there was another slightly thicker cotton robe resting there, and called: "Laide, where is my cotton robe, how can I change this one?" β
Laide had already gotten up first, ran in and said, "The old master mother ordered, from today onwards, Xiao Langjun should wear this slightly thicker robe." β
Chen Cao smiled, knowing that he couldn't disobey Laide, Laide was dead-hearted, and promised his mother to take care of him, even if the weather was not cold at all today, he had to put on this cotton robe, just like that day in Qiantang County, he ordered Laide to buy Go, and if he couldn't buy it, he wouldn't give up.
Chen Caozhi put on a cotton robe, knelt on the side of the couch, handed over a pair of brand-new linen shoes, and said, "The old master mother ordered to wear these new shoes today." Seeing that Chen Caozhi put on a brand-new linen shoes, he took out a small piece of jade from his arms and said, "What the old master mother ordered, today is Xiao Langjun's birthday, and you should wear this piece of jade." β
Chen Cao's heart was shocked, today is the first day of November, it is his birthday, and his mother has been thinking about it for a long time!
Chen Caozhi's eyes were hazy with tears, he got up and freshened up, did not run around the lake, and climbed the Lion Rock with Xu Miao, Ran Sheng, and Laide, looking south, missing his mother.
Xu Miao learned that today was Chen Caozhi's birthday, so he said that he would arrange for the cook to make leek leaf water cakes later, and invite Wei Xie, Gu Kaizhi, and Liu Shangxin to eat them together.
The so-called leek leaf water cake is similar to the longevity noodles of later generations.
Originally, Chen Caozhi was going to take Ke Tingdi to Lu Mansion today, so he ordered Ran Sheng to go to Lu Mansion to report that he would not go today, and he would confess to Lu Envoy Jun another day.
Chen Caozhi did not read or learn to paint today, and copied the "Book of Songs" alone in the room. SAO Feng. Kaifeng Chapter:
"The triumphant wind comes from the south, blowing his thorny heart. The thorny heart is dying, and the mother's family is laborious.
The triumphant wind comes from the south, blowing the thorny salary. Mother's holiness, I have nothing to do.
There is a cold spring, under the dredging. There were seven sons, and the mother worked hard.
Look at the yellow bird, carry its sound. There are seven sons, and they don't comfort their mothers. β
ββ
I copied it over and over again, preparing to copy it for a whole day, in order to express my feelings of missing my mother.
Xu Miao and Liu Shangzhi came to see Chen Caozhi's copying of poetry for a while, and realized Chen Caozhi's pure filial piety, so they quietly went out and didn't bother again.
At the end of the day, Ran Sheng came back, knelt in front of the bookcase, and said, "Xiao Langjun, I'm back." β
Chen Caozhi didn't raise his head, and continued to write "Mother's Labor", and said: "Okay, hard work, you go out." β
Ran Sheng didn't go out, sat motionless on the side and watched Xiao Langjun write, Chen Caozhi didn't say anything, he copied "Kaifeng Chapter" by himself, until noon Laide shouted outside the grass house: "Xiao Langjun, the water cake is cooked." Only then did he put away his pen and get up, only to find that behind the tall and big Ran Sheng, there was a delicate figure sitting on his knees, combing his hair and a hundred flowers, wearing a long and bright bright brocade skirt, bright eyes and bright teeth, quiet and pure, but it was Lu Weirui.
The Lu girl sat quietly while watching Chen Caozhi copy the Book of Songs. It's been almost an hour!
