12. Take the brush again
Joshu was running on the beach, the sea lapping at her feet, cold and cold, her hair fluttering in the wind, she seemed to have the freedom she had longed for.
"Little Joe, get up and eat." Jiang Xirong patted Qiao Shu.
Qiao Shu slowly opened her eyes, she didn't see the beach, she didn't see the sea, she was still in Lin Yi's study, and what she saw was Jiang Xirong's kind face.
It was a dream, the dream she chased, and it came true in her dream.
Qiao Shu got up from the bed and followed Jiang Xirong into the restaurant with a smile.
The table is full of Qiao Shu's favorite food, including lobster, fish, egg drop soup, and chicken fir mushrooms. Qiao Shu was stunned, although she had eaten a lot with the two teachers over the years, she had never said what she liked to eat. Is it just a coincidence?
Jiang Xirong pulled Qiao Shu into his seat, pointed to the table full of delicacies and said, "Teacher Lin told me that these are all foods you like to eat, and I don't know if I make them if they taste like you, you can taste them." ”
Qiao Shu looked at Lin Yi incredulously. "Teacher Lin, how do you know ......?"
Lin Yi replied lightly: "What do you think, there is something that your Teacher Lin doesn't know." As he spoke, he took a piece of fish and put it in Qiao Shu's bowl.
In fact, Song Mingsu told Lin Yi yesterday that Song Mingsu has been inquiring about Qiao Shu's situation for many years, why he is happy and angry, what he likes and what he doesn't like, as long as he remembers everything about Qiao Shu. Therefore, Lin Yi was relieved to hand over Qiao Shu to him.
Of course, Qiao Shu thought that Lin Yi had great powers, and she really didn't know what Lin Yi didn't know about all these years. She pursed her lips and smiled, and slowly brought the fish to her mouth, although it was a spicy fish, Qiao Shu ate it was not spicy at all, it was sweet, very sweet.
Qiao Shu ate the first piece of fish without bones, and after eating the second piece, there were still no bones, and there were not even bones, she thought it was a coincidence, but the third piece still did not. For more than 20 years, she had never eaten a fish without bones and spines, and she felt very novel, and she smiled. "Mr. Jiang, what kind of fish is this? There is only delicious fish meat, but there are no fish bones and bones! ”
Jiang Xirong glanced at Lin Yi and said, "Where to buy fish with no bones and no spines, it was pulled out by your teacher Lin with his hands." ”
Qiao Shu saw that Lin Yi had several band-aids wrapped on his fingers, his expression froze, and Lin Yi immediately put his hand into the bag.
Lin Yi looked at Qiao Shu's unbelievable appearance, cute and pitiful, and said with a smile: "You have been tired recently, and if you have to pick bones and thorns for a meal, you will be even more tired!" If you can save some effort, you can save a little! ”
Qiao Shu stared at Lin Yi's hand tightly, everyone in the world was very good to her, but no one was so good to her, never.
A person cares about you in his heart, when the time comes, he is angry with you, he laughs at you, it is all after careful consideration, he knows when to be harsh with you and when to be gentle with you. This kind of person is generally an elder, and his love can be given to you selflessly and unreservedly. It will be parents, it will be family, it will be teachers.
Qiao Shu didn't speak, she was tearful and smiling, joyful, excited. She eats it herself, and she keeps serving dishes to Lin Yi and Jiang Xirong. Each dish is sweet, sweeter than honey.
The meal ended with sweetness.
Qiao Shu entered the study and stood in front of the drawing board, she felt that she hadn't painted in a long time, and she didn't know how many centuries had passed. Pick up the long-lost oil paintbrush, there is no ink, the bristles are still the original color, gently brush from the drawing board, clean.
Jiang Xirong came in with all kinds of auxiliary tools, including iron blocks, ropes, and sliding blocks...... Although she knew that Qiao Shu's hands were shaking now, she didn't know what Qiao Shu looked like when she sketched, and she could always use auxiliary tools.
"You draw a sketch first, you can paint whatever you want, you can paint anything, I want to understand your most real situation, so I can find a way to paint better for you." Jiang Xirong said earnestly.
Qiao Shu picked up the pencil and stopped in front of the drawing board, she wanted to draw the scene in the dream just now, with her, the sun, the sea, the beach, and a very beautiful picture in her mind. But when she looked at her hand and the pen in her hand, she knew she couldn't draw the picture in her mind.
But Jiang Xirong asked her to paint, and in order to better develop her painting, she had to paint, even if it didn't bear any resemblance to the original scene.
The pencil broke as soon as it touched the drawing board, Qiao Shu was very nervous, it seemed that the strength of her whole body was in her hands, she wanted to draw well too much, the more she wanted to do it well, the more she couldn't do it, probably Murphy's law. Jiang Xirong handed Qiao Shu a new pencil and patted her on the shoulder, signaling not to be discouraged.
Qiao Shu tried to relax as much as possible, so that his strength did not concentrate on his hands. Despite this, her hands are still shaking, she can't figure out the law of her hand shaking, she is very confused, the last time she made breakfast she relaxed and didn't shake, but she also tried to do it with the most peaceful state of mind today, and there was no surprise like last time.
She writes very lightly and lightly, drawing on the drawing board as she wishes. Each line is more uneven than the continuous peaks, there is no smoothness of curves, no smoothness of straight lines, only winding lines and slight undulations, and there is no smoothness or smoothness. She felt very uncomfortable, she couldn't stand the painting in front of her, round but not round, square but not square, everything in the painting lost its original appearance, she held her breath, for fear that a stroke would accidentally fly and add fuel to the fire.
After about an hour and a half, she finally finished the drawing, and she immediately moved to the window, exhaling heavily, trying to hold back the tears. The paintings that once made her proud, the paintings that made her work, are now unrecognizable.
Jiang Xirong walked to the sketchpad with a calm face. She looked at the painting, it was crooked, she couldn't see anything, but she could see the outline of the sun, the sand and the sea could not be distinguished, and she vaguely felt that someone was running. It is a failed painting, but it has Qiao Shu's unique style - stubbornness.
Jiang Xirong walked towards Qiao Shu, put his hand on her shoulder, and his voice was as gentle as water. "Don't be discouraged, kid. You're doing a good job, it's just that it's almost hot, so you come and see. Jiang Xirong pulled Qiao Shu to the drawing board. If your hands don't shake, it's not a perfect painting. But if we practice well, we will draw very good works. ”
Qiao Shu let out a long sigh of relief, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and smiled. "Teacher Jiang, you're right! I can draw good works. ”
Jiang Xirong found that now Qiao Shu's wrist was strong, and there was nothing else that prevented her from painting except shaking. The auxiliary tools Jiang Xirong found couldn't help, now no one can make Qiao Shu's hands not tremble, the hospital can't find the cause, Dr. Miao can't do anything, maybe only she can help her.
Jiang Xirong asked Qiao Shu to close his eyes, closed them gently, took the pencil and didn't look at the drawing board, and drew eggs by his own imagination. Yes, painting eggs, the same as Leonardo da Vinci did at the beginning.
Qiao Shu closed his eyes and imagined that in the dream just now, there was a warm sun, a surging sea, a golden sand, and a gentle wind blowing across his cheeks. She carried a pen and easily drew an egg, the shape was standard, but it was almost set off by the shadows, she didn't know whether to chase dreams or freedom in that dream, in short, it was very cheerful, she also used a cheerful mood to paint the shadows, although she didn't look at the drawing board, but her heart seemed to see. The next stroke is accurate, and the drawing is fast and easy, and it doesn't seem to be a person just now. Qiao Shu felt that after running on the beach, the painting should be finished, she opened her eyes, and the painting in front of her made her dumbfounded:
The egg has no place to close the pen at all, it is a completely "broken egg", and the shape is crooked; The shadow is not below the egg at all, it is drawn in the upper right corner of the drawing board, 108,000 miles away from the position of the egg, and the shadow is like an indescribable non-terrestrial species.
Qiao Shu couldn't believe it, she was obviously very relaxed just now, she didn't feel her hands shaking, and she thought that the drawing was very good. But why is the reality so cruel?
Definitely. Jiang Xirong saw all of Qiao Shu's performance just now. Qiao Shu's hands were shaking constantly, even though it felt like she was looking relaxed, but her hands seemed to have a mind of their own and didn't listen to the brain's commands at all.
Jiang Xirong suddenly didn't know what to do, only by stopping Qiao Shu's hand from trembling could she draw well, but if she forcibly stopped her hand, she couldn't use her own strength. The two stared at each other, each other's minds blank, not knowing what to do.
Lin Yi leaned against the door, looking at the two of them at a loss. went straight in and pulled Qiao Shu and Jiang Xirong to the bed, Jiang Xirong took off his shoes and sat on the inside of the bed, Qiao Shu sat on the edge of the bed, Lin Yi asked Qiao Shu to slowly lean back, about 120 degrees between the upper body and the legs, Lin Yi asked Jiang Xirong to resist Qiao Shu's back in the back and support Qiao Shu's head. And Lin Yi lifted the drawing board, raised it in front of Qiao Shu, and only said "Paint!" ”
Qiao Shu and Jiang Xirong didn't know why Lin Yi did this. Qiao Shu leaned on Jiang Xirong's two hands, using the pen in her hand to sketch on the drawing board, and the moment she put down the pen, she had a feeling, a feeling that she had not felt for a long time, the same feeling as she was good at painting before. Her hands didn't shake, this time really didn't shake at all, she drew an egg naturally and accurately depicted the shadows. Qiao Shu was pleasantly surprised, although Jiang Xirong's hands were sour behind him, he still couldn't believe his eyes. Is this Josh? Is this the unrecognizable Qiao Shu from the thing he drew just now?
Lin Yi put down the sketchpad and shook his arm, the sketchpad was still relatively heavy. Qiao Shu and Jiang Xirong got up from the bed, looking at this "extraordinary" egg, Qiao Shu asked Lin Yi to pinch her, she felt that she was dreaming. But it's not a dream, it's a reality.
Qiao Shu hugged Jiang Xirong tightly and shed tears of excitement, she didn't expect to make such progress on the first day, which she never expected.
Qiao Shu looked at Lin Yi with a puzzled look on his face again. "Mr. Lin, how did you come up with this solution?"
Lin Yi suddenly burst out laughing. "You forgot? In the past, when you saw a doctor at Dr. Miao, your hands didn't shake in this position. I thought, it used to be, and it should be possible now, so let's give it a try! ”
Qiao Shu patted her head and remembered that there was indeed such a thing, she had forgotten it a long time ago, but she didn't expect Lin Yi to remember it so clearly. When he went to see a doctor before, Lin Yi was by his side very few times, and Qiao Shu didn't know when Lin Yi knew these details.
Lin Yi then added: "Then in the future, we will add such a backward training in the morning, and insist on half an hour every day." Do the same when you draw in the afternoon, and I believe that you will be able to draw normally soon. ”
Qiao Shu turned her head and saw that Jiang Xirong was still shaking her hand, she was against Qiao Shu's weight, no less than Lin Yi holding a drawing board.
Qiao Shu looked at Lin Yi worriedly: "But if you keep painting like this now, I'm afraid Teacher Jiang won't be able to bear it." ”
Lin Yi took Jiang Xirong's hand and gently rubbed it for her. "I suddenly remembered it today, so I asked Mr. Jiang to resist, and tomorrow there will be a helper, Mr. Jiang only needs to guide you to draw on the side!"
Qiao Shu and Jiang Xirong glanced at each other, they didn't know who this helper was, they were very curious and full of expectations.
Jiang Xirong left Qiao Shu at home for dinner, and asked her to finish an essay when she got home, and Jiang Xirong revised it for her tomorrow.
After dinner, Lin Yi sent Qiao Shu home.
They walked on Maple Leaf Avenue. The road is wide, lined with maple trees that reach into the sky, and now it is summer, and the leaves are green and full of life.
The two walked side by side, both with faint smiles on their faces.
Lin Yi asked, "Do you regret it?" Dreams are not easy to chase, right? ”
Qiao Shu shook his head when he heard such a question. "No regrets, not at all. If dreams are easy to chase, life does not need to struggle, and what is the meaning of life in the end? ”
"Looking at you now, I think of my younger self."
Lin Yi fell into memories.
Lin Yi graduated from the sports school at the age of 18, and the people around him suggested that he take the teacher exam and become a physical education teacher, which was easy and profitable, but he didn't. He wanted to be an athlete, and he ran every day, from morning to night, from spring to winter. Whenever there was a Majon flash movement in major cities, he would rather take a train for a few days and nights to participate. Father Lin and Mother Lin have no way at all, Lin Yi is the youngest son in the family, and he is also their heart, so they can only let him go.
Maxima will eventually be appreciated by Bole. After four or five years of such a day, once he was introduced by a friend and met the coach of the N team, the coach admired him very much, and felt that he was a good seedling of Ma Rongshan, but the rules could not be broken, so let him join the bottom team first, and one day he would enter the N team. Lin Yi started his career as an athlete, he worked very hard, he was the most diligent of all the team members, he got up at 5 o'clock to practice, and practiced until 11 or 2 o'clock in the evening before going to rest. Before entering the N team, every coach admired Lin Yi's spirit, and let him participate in the Ma Rong flash competition, which is of course different from his personal participation in the competition. Lin Yi himself is also very competitive, and he can win the championship almost every time, and later joined the N team after a strong request from the coach of the N team.
At this time, he met Jiang Xirong. Jiang Xirong stayed at the university after graduating from university, and the teacher resources were scarce, so she taught Chinese for one year and art for another, alternating back and forth. Lin Yi went to their school to give a physical education lecture and was attracted by Jiang Xirong's temperament at that time. According to Lin Yi's identity at the time, the two were a good match, talented and beautiful, and they were a good couple. But Jiang Xirong was obsessed with work, writing and painting every day, and she was promoted to professor before she was 30.
Lin Yi did not give up on Jiang Xirong, he went to Jiang Xirong's community every day to wait, sent her to and from work, and bought her three meals a day. Once Jiang's father was seriously ill and hospitalized, Jiang Xirong was too busy with work to take a break, so Lin Yi shirked several games to take care of Jiang's father, and was almost expelled from the N team. Jiang Xirong was originally a soft-hearted woman, and seeing that Lin Yi was getting better and better to her day by day, she agreed.
After listening to Lin Yi's story, Qiao Shu's face was full of envy, she envied their beautiful love story, although she didn't understand love and didn't have this kind of experience, but she felt very good, and she was even more envious of their persistence. "No wonder Teacher Jiang always said, you taught me stubbornness."
Lin Yi put his hands behind his back and smiled indifferently. "Didn't she teach you her attachment too?"
Qiao Shu lowered his head and smiled.
Lin Yi knew that Qiao Shu was Jiang Xirong back then, and Song Mingsu was him back then.
People, when they were young, were full of enthusiasm, chasing dreams and pursuing love. At this time, I will not be tired, and I will not be bored with doing this all the time. If you don't achieve your goal, you won't give up.
