115 Stand-in (7)
"Gao Tian, haven't you learned how to be a stand-in from your grandfather?" Lao Jiutou looked at me with unblinking eyes as he looked at the paper figure he was making, and his face showed doubt.
I looked at the white paper that Lao Jiutou was constantly rolling, nodded and said, "Ninth Grandpa, I have never seen my grandfather as a stand-in!" ”
"Oh, that's it, Gao Tian, you have to study hard, this stand-in is very particular, I'll do it slowly, you watch carefully!" After hearing my words, Lao Jiutou said with relief on his face. At the same time, the rapidly rolled white paper in his hand also slowed down.
I watched the old nine heads constantly roll white paper rolls of different sizes, and asked with a puzzled look on my face: "Grandpa Jiu, isn't it just to be a paper man?" Why roll up these blank rolls of paper! ”
When my voice fell, Lao Jiutou finished rolling up a small paper roll in his hand, and then explained: "Gao Tian, these paper rolls are used as bones for stand-ins!" ”
"Ninth Grandpa, do you still have to work so hard? Wouldn't it be nice to take some straw, make a straw man, and then put a blank sheet of paper on it! ”
When Lao Jiutou heard my words, he laughed and said: "Gao Tian, there are many kinds of stand-ins, and Jiang Tao's stand-in must be made of pure paper in order to work!" If you use straw, you can do it, but the effect is far worse! ”
When I heard this, I nodded, indicating that I had understood, and seeing that I understood, Lao Jiutou quickly rolled up the remaining few pieces of cut white paper, then returned to the house and tossed for a while, and after a while, he took a tube of glue and walked out.
Looking at the old nine heads of the white paper rolls that had just been rolled up, one by one, his face showed a look of understanding. As the old nine heads continued to splice the paper rolls, the silhouette of a humanoid figure slowly appeared in front of my eyes!
"Whew!"
After splicing all the white paper rolls together, Lao Jiutou looked at the human figure that appeared on the ground with paper rolls, exhaled, and said with joy on his face: "The most difficult skeleton has been completed, and the next thing is simple, Gao Tian, go and bring me the white paper that has not been cut on the kang, and I will teach you how to cover the skin!" ”
When I heard Lao Jiutou's words, I rolled my eyes helplessly, and said secretly in my heart: "Let me run errands, just say it directly, why are you so hypocritical!" ”
Lao Jiutou saw the helpless look on my face, smiled a little embarrassedly, and didn't say anything.
Seeing that the old nine heads were like this, although I was helpless, I still got up and walked towards the house and took back the white paper on the kang.
"Gao Tian, when this stand-in must be covered, you must start from the beginning, slowly paste it down little by little, don't start from somewhere else, otherwise it will be very troublesome!" As he spoke, Lao Jiutou carefully pasted the white paper that had been coated with glue in his hand on the paper roll humanoid that had just been made.
When I saw Lao Jiutou's cautious appearance, I didn't make a sound to disturb him, and my eyes looked at the white paper that Lao Jiutou had pasted on the paper roll of the human figure without blinking, and my face showed a thoughtful look from time to time.
However, just when Lao Jiutou pasted the white paper onto the chest of the paper roll humanoid, he suddenly stopped, quickly took out a piece of white paper from his coat pocket, applied glue and slowly stuck it into the chest of the paper roll human.
"Grandpa Nine, what is this?" Seeing this, I asked puzzled.
"Gao Tian, this blank paper is Jiang Tao's eight characters of his birthday, and only by pasting the eight characters of his birthday in the body will it play a real role!" After speaking, the old nine heads once again pasted white paper on the paper roll figure.
Time went by, just when my eyes were a little sore, Lao Jiutou finally pasted the last left foot of Jiang Tao's stand-in, and looked at the stand-in he had just made, Lao Jiutou's face showed satisfaction.
"Grandpa Jiu, don't you need to draw facial features on this paper figure?" I asked curiously as I looked at the stand-in's face, which had nothing at all.
"Of course I want to, otherwise after this stand-in is burned, he will become blind, deaf and dumb, how ugly it is!" Saying that, Lao Jiutou stood up and stretched his waist, then took out the brush and ink in his coat pocket, and quickly drew clear facial features on the stand-in's face.
With the completion of the stand-in's facial features, I suddenly felt that the stand-in lying on the ground seemed to have a soul, which made me can't help but reach out and pinch the white arm of the stand-in!
"Oops, who pinched me!"
However, when I pinched the upside-down stand-in on the ground, Jiang Tao, who had entered the house to sleep when I was rolling paper rolls with Lao Jiutou before, let out a loud cry and woke up in his sleep.
When I heard Jiang Tao's screams, my face was stunned, and my eyes looked at the old nine heads who were smiling in confusion.
Seeing me, Lao Jiutou coughed softly, endured the smile on his face and said: "Gao Tian, now the stand-in on the ground has been linked to Jiang Tao, as long as you don't stick your hair, if you hit this stand-in, Jiang Tao will feel the same way!" ”
As soon as I heard Lao Jiutou's words, a wicked smile quickly floated on the corner of my mouth, and I quickly slapped the stand-in next to me several times while Lao Jiutou entered the house to drink water!
As I slapped the stand-in in the face, Jiang Tao in the room screamed: "Oops, hiss, who hit me!" Yikes! Yes! ”
The grandfather, who was reading a book in the house, frowned after seeing Jiang Tao's reaction, and shouted with some displeasure: "Gao Tian, be honest, don't be blind!" ”
I was fanning up, but when I heard my grandfather's words, the hand that hit the stand-in in the face was reluctantly retracted.
"It's that bastard who is plotting against me, don't let me know, or I'll have to make him look good!"
"Smack!"
I immediately withdrew my right hand, and when I heard Jiang Tao's words, I quickly slapped it on the face of the stand-in, probably using too much force, and there was a soft sound on Jiang Tao's face.
Jiang Tao was stunned by this sudden slap, and his face, which was originally full of anger before, quickly filled with fear, and pleaded with the old nine heads: "Ninth Grandpa, is my stand-in ready?" Huang Ying may be in a hurry, you have to hurry up! ”
Lao Jiutou, who was drinking water, shook his head helplessly when he saw Jiang Tao's slightly swollen left face, put down the water cup that had just been sent to his mouth, and hurried towards the kitchen.
Seeing Lao Jiutou walking out, I hurriedly distanced myself from the paper man, and used my actions to show that I had not beaten Jiang Tao's stand-in.
As soon as Lao Jiutou came to the kitchen, he took out the hair wrapped in paper in his pocket, wiped it with glue, and quickly stuck it to the white head of the stand-in!
"Jiang Tao, the stand-in is ready, you quickly take it and burn it at the crossroads!" After sticking all his hair to the substitute, the old nine heads shouted at the top of their voices.
As soon as the voice of the old nine heads fell, Jiang Tao hurriedly walked out of the house, looked at the stand-in on the ground with a happy face and said, "Grandpa Jiu, hurry up and burn it with me!" ”
"Xiao Tao, go by yourself! It's not good to burn this for the older people around you! With that, the old nine heads walked towards the house with their eyes behind their backs.
I glanced at Jiang Tao, who was slightly bulging on the left side of his face and missing a large strand of hair on his head, with a happy smile on his face, stood up and walked towards the West House.
Jiang Tao looked at my departing back, and stopped talking. Glancing at the watch on his wrist pointing to half past nine, Jiang Tao showed an anxious look on his face, and walked quickly towards the house where the old nine heads were.
"Ninth Grandpa, you just accompany me to burn the stand-in, I really don't dare!" As soon as Jiang Tao walked into the house, he said to the old nine heads with a pleading face.
"Didn't I say that! When you burn the stand-in, it's not good to have an elderly person on the side, so you might as well go by yourself! Remember not to look back after burning! After speaking, Lao Jiutou no longer paid attention to Jiang Tao, who was full of anxiety, and picked up the dumplings around him with chopsticks and ate them.
Jiang Tao saw that it was hopeless to ask for the old nine, his eyes rolled, and he begged my grandfather who was reading: "Grandpa Gao, my ninth grandfather is eating!" Can you go with me and burn the stand-in? ”
Hearing Jiang Tao's words, my grandfather raised his head to read a book, glanced at Jiang Tao with an anxious face, and said, "You go to Gao Tian and tell him that I will let him follow you to burn the stand-in!" ”
Jiang Tao, who was full of anxiety, said with a look of embarrassment on his face when he heard my grandfather's words: "Grandpa Gao, I offended Gao Tian just now, can he go with me to burn the stand-in?" ”
"You can go to him with confidence, tell me to let him go with you, and he will agree!"
Seeing my grandfather say this, Jiang Tao also had some confidence, and hurriedly strode towards the West House where I was.
"Gao Tian, your grandfather asked you to burn the stand-in with me!" As soon as Jiang Tao walked into my room, he said with a sigh of urgency.
My body that was originally lying on the kang, after hearing Jiang Tao's words, turned over, turned his back to Jiang Tao and said with disdain: "Do you love to go or not, Lao Tzu doesn't have time to go with you!" ”
"Your grandfather told you to come with me!" After Jiang Tao heard my words, his face turned blue and he shouted angrily.
"Not available!"
"You!" Jiang Tao saw that I insisted on not going with him, and he was about to walk out as soon as he stomped his feet. As soon as Jiang Tao turned around, he saw Lao Jiutou walking into the house with an angry face.
"Jiang Tao, didn't your parents teach you how to ask for help? With your attitude, if it were me, no matter who asked me to burn a stand-in with you, I wouldn't go! As soon as the old nine heads walked into the house, they scolded Jiang Tao with a gloomy face.
Jiang Tao was stunned after hearing the scolding of Lao Jiutou, and looked at Lao Jiutou! But when Jiang Tao saw Lao Jiutou's face, he saw Lao Jiutou squeezing his eyebrows at him, Jiang Tao suddenly realized, and said to me with an apologetic voice: "Gao Tian, I'm sorry, I was a little anxious just now, and my speech was a little ugly, please forgive me, I'm sorry!" ”
When Jiang Tao apologized to me, Lao Jiutou said to me, who still hadn't turned around: "Gao Tian, don't be angry, for the sake of Grandpa Jiu's face, you can follow Jiang Tao and him to burn the stand-in!" ”
Seeing that the old nine heads said this, I couldn't fight his face, the lying body sat up quickly, glanced at Jiang Tao with a hypocritical face and said: "Ninth grandfather, I will look at your face, and go with Jiang Tao to burn the stand-in, but just look at your old man's face!" ”
