Chapter Twenty-Four: The Obedient Swordsman

Grandma is here, and this incident has only increased the daily pressure on Lin Qing.

Throwing Lin Qing to her grandmother to take care of this matter made Lin Qing's mother completely relieved and threw herself into work, leaving earlier and returning later every day, just like this week Lin Qing missed her mother perfectly for three days in a row.

Often, as soon as she went to sleep, her mother came back, she got up and went to school, and her mother had already set off for work.

Hmph, workaholic.

Lin Qing scribbled on the notebook, drawing today's breakfast, painting grandma's wrinkles, and painting small saplings that sprout new in the morning......

Aimlessly thinking of what to draw and what to paint.

"It's beautiful, huh?"

A female voice interjected, Lin Qing was stunned, and looked up suspiciously, it was the head teacher.

Lin Qing was so frightened that he quickly put away the notebook and sat in his seat, when he saw that the classmates around him were looking at him, he had to bury his head a little lower, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Don't hide it, it's just up to you to make the cheering banner for our sports meeting." As he spoke, the head teacher walked past Lin Qing and stepped onto the podium and began to arrange the next work.

Lin Qing just drew seriously, and he didn't hear the class bell when he rang it, now it is a class meeting, and it should be to discuss the specific matters of the sports meeting the day after tomorrow.

Lin Qing knocked on his head quietly, why didn't he hear the class bell, why did the teacher walk in through the back door and bump into her drawing, it was really embarrassing.

The class teacher assigned the task in the class meeting, because it was a joint sports meeting with other schools, and it was the first time they participated in the sports meeting this year, so even the head teacher paid more attention to this activity.

After class, Lin Qing received the cloth strip of the cheering banner, and Zheng Tingting and Shang Xinyi received the cheering draft of the sports meeting on composition paper to copy together.

"Yes, we all have to work overtime today." On the way out of school, Shang Xinyi made a bitter face, holding the composition paper and crying.

Lin Qing nodded, looking at the banner he was holding in his arms, which was about one meter long, and it also came with two wooden sticks, so that the students in the audience could raise it to cheer and cheer during the sports meeting.

The three of them were separated, Lin Qing went home and spread the banner on the table, the small square table barely hung the blank banner cloth, pinching his chin Lin Qing frowned and thought about how this cheering banner could be drawn so that people could look like they could add oil.

"Take it, take it, don't put this thing on the table." Grandma brought the food to the table, frowning and urging Lin Qing to take down the banner.

glanced at his grandmother, who was almost sixty years old, his waist was still straight, his hair was gray, his hair was cut into a short haircut, and his eyes were obviously with some traces of time, but the whole person was neatly dressed and cleanly dressed, making this old man who was nearly sixty years old still look full of energy.

Lin Qing didn't say anything, silently put away the banner and piled it on the sofa, ready to wash his hands and eat.

"What, is the sofa a place to put things?" Grandma put down the dishes and chopsticks and looked over, obviously very dissatisfied with Lin Qing's sloppiness.

At this time, Lin Qing completely lost his temper, sighed and accepted his fate, picked up the banner and put it back in his room.

At that moment, Lin Qing seemed to be a Cinderella who was abandoned at home by her father and abused by her stepmother. I endure, there will always be a pumpkin cart to pick me up.

Lin Qing comforted himself like this in his heart.

After eating quietly—yes, grandma is a very rigid person, and eating and sleeping without saying a word is the dogma she has adhered to for almost sixty years—Lin Qing learned her lesson this time, and directly spread out the banner on the floor of her room, preparing to lie on the ground and draw.

"What are you doing lying on the ground?"

With a question, the door was opened with a "squeak", Lin Qing was so frightened that he turned his head suddenly, and his grandmother stood at the door and looked down at her lying on the ground.

"Why don't you knock on the door?" Lin Qing frowned and complained.

"I'm your grandma, and I want to knock on the door?" Grandma is right.

Lin Qing choked, knowing that the order of the elders and young was something that could not be changed no matter how hard he tried, so he could only shut up obediently. didn't answer Grandma's question, turned his head and took a pencil to carefully draft on the banner first.

When she was working on the draft, her grandmother was not idle, she moved a stool and sat in Lin Qing's crowded room to watch her draw, which was called "visiting".

Lin Qing rolled his eyes from an invisible angle, and complained in his heart, is this taking her as a show.

In the middle, four hollow characters were written, "Come on, a class", and some villains holding small banners of cheering were painted next to them, and Lin Qing drew the faces of his classmates according to his memory.

Promise with cute big eyes and wearing a cheerleading uniform, Zhu Yi with long hair and gentle and moving in Hanfu, as well as Zheng Tingting who wears glasses and writes papers, and Zhang Yi who raises his hand with a black face...... Of course, there must be Xu Ping'an, who is silently observing in the corner......

Lin Qing was laughed at by his own painting, and the corners of his mouth rose as he painted.

"Who are these you drawing?" Suddenly, a puzzled voice interjected.

Lin Qing's thoughts and brushes were interrupted at the same time, and he said angrily: "It's all classmates in our class." ”

"Are you going to paint later?" Grandma sat on a stool and stretched her neck to stare at the banner and continue to ask.

"That's right." Lin Qing began to draw lines with a black marker, but fortunately, the art teacher was in the office when she received the banner and gave her a set of painting tools, otherwise there was really nothing to draw at home.

Grandma got up from her chair, walked to the banner, squat down, picked up a colored pencil, stared at it for a while, and said, "I'll help you paint these colors." ”

Lin Qing raised her eyebrows, sat on the ground and looked at her grandmother, she was saying things like "baby, let's play together" with a serious expression on her face at this time, which made Lin Qing not know for a while whether her grandmother was happy or unhappy, whether she agreed or disagreed.

Without waiting for Lin Qing to answer, the other party directly pulled out the cap of the pen, picked up the cotton skirt and squatted on the ground, ready to color the hair of "Zheng Tingting".

Lin Qing's eyes widened, and he put down the marker and pounced to stop it.

"Huh... Do! You.... It's pretty good. Lin Qing's stop was choked in his mouth before he could say it, the reason is... Her grandmother did not make trouble as she imagined, but was very serious and even very skillful in painting "Zheng Tingting" hair quite realistically, and even had a highlight gradient.

Grandma smiled suddenly, the wrinkles on her face also became vivid with the smile, she had a slightly smug look, and her serious voice became undulating for the first time: "Of course, I used to be quite good at drawing when I was in school. ”

Lin Qing picked up the paintbrush and re-drew the line, and raised his eyebrows to express his doubts when he heard this: "Grandma, you also went to school?" ”

After painting her hair color, Grandma picked up the red cheering suit that depicted "Zheng Tingting" carefully, and couldn't help but raise her voice when she heard the words, with the seriousness she usually carries, she raised her eyebrows and said, "What's the matter, don't I look like I've been to school?" ”

Lin Qing didn't say anything, and after a few minutes, grandma seemed to fall into some kind of memory, "... It's a pity that my family was poor, and I didn't finish painting, and I didn't succeed in school..."

Lin Qing turned his head to look at this old man who fell into memory, he was brought up by his grandparents since he was a child, and he had lived for so many years, and he had only met a few times every time he had the New Year, and he had met a few times during the New Year's Festival.

Seem...... I've never known my grandmother, and it seems that she is also a very kind old man.

Lin Qing thought so.

"Look, bring me a mat, why is this kid so eyeless." The old man rubbed his legs and stretched out his hand to command.

Lin Qing's eyes flew, okay, he shouldn't have expectations for this fierce old man.

Fortunately, thanks to the blessing of Grandma's powerful helper, the grandparents and grandchildren completed the banner while chatting and drawing.

"I'm done." Lin Qing sat up from the ground, pulled up the banner and put it in front of his eyes to admire it carefully, the posture was as if he had just completed such a great project as "Qingming Riverside Map".

"Well, that's pretty good." Grandma also got up and stood behind Lin Qing to observe carefully, "But it's almost meaningful." ”

"What's missing?" Hearing this, Lin Qing turned his head to look behind him and asked.

Grandma glanced at Lin Qing, turned her head and went out, waving her hand with her back to Lin Qing: "What's missing?" I almost didn't paint it. ”

Lin Qing was speechless, her eyes drooped, she understood, and she also understood, her grandmother was the first person to pour cold water. Pouting, he carefully rolled up the banner, got up and turned his head to stuff it into his bag.

"What, I feel good anyway."

On the rivers and lakes, the unequaled swordsman painted scroll came out, shocked the four, it is rumored that the unequaled swordsman Dugu I, poured his life's learning into this picture scroll, and avoided the world for more than ten years in order to paint this picture scroll.

A agile posture flew out of the crowd, flying into the sky and the clouds and fog, and took the picture scroll into his arms, winning the first place among many heroes in the rivers and lakes, such as entering and leaving no man's land. The peerless swordsman exclaimed: "This person is my apprentice, and today's picture scroll is someone else, and there is someone in the future!" ”

Everyone was shocked, crying and grabbing the ground, only hating their own lack of cultivation, falling behind others, only to feel that there were people outside the mountain, and they missed this opportunity.

Lin Qing waved the rolled banner in the air, "Wipe -", the sound of the banner splitting the air, Lin Qing lowered his head, imitated the expression of a swordsman and slowly raised his head, clasped his hands into fists on his chest, smiled and looked down at the surroundings, and said lightly: "Accept and concede, Xiaosheng is not talented, I have admired swordsmen for many years, and it is Xiaosheng's honor to be able to get this today." ”

Very good, expressions, and lines are quite well controlled.

"Lin Qing, what are you doing? Why haven't the colored pens all over the floor been cleaned up? Grandma's urging sound sounded outside the door.

Lin Qing woke up from his dream, sighed helplessly at the door, quietly waved the scroll in the air, opened his mouth to complain but didn't have the courage to resist, so he had to turn around and pick up the brushes on the ground one by one.

No matter how powerful a swordsman is, he has to listen to his grandmother and clean up his room.

Little Lin Qing understood this truth early in the morning.
