Chapter 191: Paper-cutting genius
Gu Xiaoyou was making preparations, and Zhixia came back with scissors.
Holding a pair of black scissors in both hands, Zhixia said respectfully: "Miss, the slave maid has brought the scissors." ”
"Okay, sit down next to me." Gu Xiaoyou glanced at it, pulled a chair, and motioned for Zhixia to sit down.
"Yes." Zhixia responded obediently and sat on the chair obediently.
Zhixia Qingxiu's face was tense, his eyes were shining and he looked at Gu Xiaoyou, holding scissors in one hand and putting the other hand on his knees, sitting in a regular manner, his posture looked like a modern elementary school student entering the classroom for the first time.
Gu Xiaoyou was amused by her appearance: "Don't be nervous, just do it as usual." ”
"Slaves and maids are usually like this, Miss, just talk about it directly." Zhixia said with a slightly shy expression.
"Okay, then I'll start talking, put the scissors aside first, and I'll teach you the pattern first." Gu Xiaoyou said carefully: "The tip of the knife is facing the outside, don't pierce your hand." ”
"Yes young lady, the slave knows." Zhixia responded obediently, and put the scissors a little far away from his body according to Gu Xiaoyou's instructions, and deliberately put the tips of the knives outward.
Gu Xiaoyou cut the colored paper on the table into four squares of paper with a paper cutter, gave one to Zhixia, and picked up one himself: "First fold the colored paper diagonally diagonally." ”
"Oh, good." Zhixia learned Gu Xiaoyou's movements and folded the colored paper in half.
"Fold it in half again." Gu Xiaoyou glanced at the paper shape in Zhixia's hand, and saw that she folded it correctly, so he continued to teach.
Zhixia immediately did so, Gu Xiaoyou watched her fold it, and said, "After the paper is folded, trace the pattern on it." ”
As he spoke, he lifted the pen and put the triangle colored paper in his hand in the right position: "The line folded in the triangle is facing itself, and the direction of unfolding is facing the outside." ”
"Yes." Zhixia carefully observed Gu Xiaoyou's position and immediately straightened the triangle.
After confirming that it was correct, Gu Xiaoyou picked up the pen and traced it on the paper, and said while drawing: "This pattern is a bit complicated, you watch me draw it first, and when I finish drawing, you can follow it." ”
"Hmm." Zhixia responded, leaned forward slightly, and carefully looked at the patterns depicted by Gu Xiaoyou.
Gu Xiaoyou drew this pattern several times in one night, and it was already clearly remembered in his mind, and he almost didn't hesitate to move the pen with the pen, and quickly drew the pattern.
"Okay, you can follow the description, be careful, don't make a mistake." Gu Xiaoyou put the trick in front of Zhixia's eyes and admonished.
Zhixia nodded in response, first looked at it carefully, then picked up the fine brush, dipped it in ink, and drew lines on the paper.
Don't look at Zhixia's young age, but he is careful, patient and enough, and it took a while to accurately trace the patterns.
"The slave is done." Zhi Xia Tsai carefully checked it before teaching Gu Xiaoyou the colored paper in his hand to check.
Gu Xiaoyou took it and took a look, hey, this girl's painting looks like a copy, and it is exactly the same as what she painted.
"You've drawn well, now you can pick up your little scissors." Gu Xiaoyou raised his eyebrows and said.
"Okay." Finally arrived at the most anticipated step, Zhixia couldn't wait to pick up the scissors.
"Use scissors to cut along the direction of the solid line, and follow the line, so that the cut pattern line is smooth." Gu Xiaoyou took the scissors, slowed down his movements, and explained to Zhixia step by step: "Be sure to stick the black line outside and cut it, and you can't leave the black on the paper." ”
Zhixia stared intently at Gu Xiaoyou's white hand movements, and cut paper step by step according to her instructions.
Unconsciously, Gu Xiaoyou had already dropped the last cut: "The line has been cut, and now it's time to accept the results." ”
Gu Xiaoyou put the scissors on the table, gently removed the confetti that was still left on the colored paper with his slender fingers, and finally shook it lightly to unfold the colored paper, and the delicate paper-cut of the mandarin duck playing in the water was born.
"I'll see what you cut." Gu Xiaoyou put the cut pattern on the table and said to Zhixia.
Zhixia flicked the confetti on the paper and handed the colored paper to Gu Xiaoyou: "Here you go." ”
Gu Xiaoyou took it, first looked at the place where Zhixia had cut it, and then reached out and touched the cut place: "It's very well cut, there is no black line and no place to block your hands." ”
Gu Xiaoyou praised it, and then unfolded the colored paper in his hand, and the colored paper was successfully cut into a mandarin duck playing in the water.
The patterns she cut on the table were stacked with those cut by Zhixia, and the two cutouts were perfectly blended together, as if they were a pair of cuts.
"Yes, I did it so well the first time I cut it." Gu Xiaoyou praised in surprise, I didn't expect Zhixia's girl to be so skillful.
Zhixia was praised by Gu Xiaoyou like this, and suddenly became shy.
"Miss is wrong, the slave is very stupid."
"Don't be stupid, I've taught so many people, and you're the first to pass it once." Gu Xiaoyou said sincerely.
She thought that Zhixia seemed to be very dexterous in combing her hair buns, and she would have four or five buns at the beginning.
Since serving her, I have learned several more buns with other maids, as if she hasn't had a different hairstyle for half a month.
Thinking about it this way, Zhixia is a girl who doesn't know how to be skillful, and she seems to have a good memory.
"Have you memorized all the tricks just now?" Gu Xiaoyou asked curiously, looking at Zhixia with a little expectation.
"The slave wrote it down, but I don't know if it's right to remember." Zhixia replied hesitantly.
"Draw it and I'll see it." Gu Xiaoyou immediately took a new piece of colored paper to Zhixia.
Zhixia took it, first carefully folded the colored paper into a triangle, and then thought about it before carefully lifting the pen and drawing it on the colored paper.
Gu Xiaoyou had been staring closely at Zhixia's movements, and saw that she almost didn't hesitate to draw the patterns on the paper, although the movements were a little slow, but they were able to tell the difference.
"Wow, Zhixia, you've just drawn it once, and you'll write it down!" Gu Xiaoyou exclaimed, did she discover a paper-cutting genius?
Zhixia lowered his head embarrassedly, and said softly: "The slave's mother is an embroiderer, and the family is embroidered with red patterns, and the slave has no preferences when she was a child, so she is willing to draw patterns, so remember to be faster." ”
"Ouch, let me see your little head, it's so good."
Gu Xiaoyou happily picked up Zhixia's little face, looked at her as if she had discovered a new continent, and looked at Zhixia's face flushed.
"Miss, don't tease the slave."
"I didn't tease you, you're the treasure I found now!" Gu Xiaoyou said with a smile: "As long as I teach you, I can be liberated." ”
"Liberation?" Zhixia didn't quite understand what her young lady meant, and looked at her in a daze.
"It means to be free from bondage and to be free." Gu Xiaoyoule Taotao explained.
