Chapter 195: Second Face

"Today, let's learn your name first."

Fu Lanqing laid out the rice paper, lifted the brush, and slowly wrote down two big characters.

It's not the same as the last time he wrote, these two words are standardized and upright, just like printed italics, without a trace of his personal style, it is obvious that Lu Jiu used it to copy.

As soon as Lu Jiu picked up the brush, Fu Lanqing said: "The posture of holding the pen is wrong. ”

Accustomed to hard pen calligraphy, soft pen calligraphy is really not easy.

Fu Lanqing held Lu Jiu's hand, helped her adjust the posture of holding the pen, and gently wrote down the next Lu character, he explained to her how to move the pen while writing, the force should be gentle, not too heavy.

Lu Jiu was just a little unaccustomed to soft pen calligraphy, and under Fu Lanqing's guidance, he quickly wrote his name.

When Fu Lanqing saw the words written by Lu Jiu, he threw the paper directly into the paper basket, with a look of disgust: "Rewrite!" ”

Lu Jiu felt that his writing was not bad, but Fu Lanqing was not satisfied, so he had to rewrite it.

But ten pieces of rice paper were discarded in a row, and I heard Xu Zhiyuan say that these rice papers cost hundreds of taels of silver with one knife.

Ordinary rice paper is not so valuable, but is Fu Lanqing the kind of person who uses ordinary goods?

He's a loser!

Seeing that the ten taels of silver were gone, Lu Jiu's face ached: "Just look at it, you don't need to be so nitpicky, right?" ”

"Calligraphy is the second face of man." Fu Lanqing glanced at Lu Jiu, and then said: "Originally, the first face was not good-looking, it was born with no way, but the second face can be practiced the day after tomorrow, you practice a lot, and strive to make the second face look better!" ”

Lu Jiu: "......" is ugly, but it makes a lot of sense.

Even in modern times, there is such a saying.

There are also paper scores for the exam.

In the eyes of the judge, handwriting is the only face.

Lu Jiu continued to practice calligraphy, and wasted more than a dozen pieces of rice paper, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed: "Wasting so much paper? ”

"That's where it goes." Fu Lanqing said indifferently: "If ordinary people's calligraphy wants to be small, without wasting thousands of pieces of paper, it can't be done at all!" ”

Hearing this, Lu Jiu gasped.

You must know that ancient papermaking technology is not as advanced as modern times, and paper is very expensive, and only those who read books can afford it.

Fu Lanqing thought that Lu Jiu was distressed about money, so he said very generously: "Don't worry about the paper, I'll provide it for free!" ”

Lu Jiu snorted, but suddenly remembered the fifth treasure of the modern study room - calligraphy water writing cloth.

Water writing cloth is a kind of calligraphy and painting art supplies that are used to practice brush calligraphy, calligraphy and painting, and children's graffiti painting and painting after writing with a brush dipped in water.

If she can get the water writing cloth out, she should be able to make a lot of money again.

Anyway, water writing cloth can be recycled, which is much cheaper than buying paper to practice calligraphy, and there should be many people willing to buy it.

Seeing that Lu Jiu was in a daze again, Fu Lanqing remembered that he had been slapped a few times, and he wanted to hit him, but after thinking about it, he better forget it.

How can you bully a woman?

Knowing that he couldn't beat him, Fu Lanqing found such a reason for himself.

"What are you thinking?"

Lu Jiu snorted and whispered to Fu Lanqing: "I suddenly thought of an artifact that can practice calligraphy without wasting paper!" ”

"What artifact?"

Lu Jiu glanced at him: "Do you want to know?" ”

Fu Lanqing was quite curious: "Yes." ”
