Chapter Forty-Eight: The Gu Family

Early the next morning, because from this day on, Lin Xiaoxiao was going to learn painting with Gu Chengyun, and he would go to Gu's house at nine o'clock every morning, not eat at home at noon, and come back at four o'clock in the afternoon, so the use time of the time retarder had to be adjusted.

So, Lin Xiaoxiao got up half intentionally and half unintentionally, early the next morning, at five o'clock in the morning.

After getting up and washing up a little, the little girl put on a small backpack and secretly opened the door and went out. It wasn't until I got out of the hospital that the time retarder was turned on.

She had to practice in the morning, plus a regular morning sketch and flute practice.

Going out at half past five and ending at half past six, Lin Xiaoxiao saw the early seller before going home, thought about it, and simply waited for the retarder to run out, and directly bought soy milk, fritters, and baked cakes, and took them back along the way.

Hearing the knock on the door, Mama Lin, who was in a daze, woke up and got up to look outside with her clothes on.

"Laughing?! Where have you been?! Mother Lin happened to see Lin Xiaoxiao coming home early with a bunch of them, and she was startled, and this call woke up Dad Lin too.

Grandma Lin also woke up in a daze, and she didn't know what happened for a while.

"It's okay, I'm hungry, go out and buy some breakfast." Lin Xiaoxiao looked calm and put the things on the small table opposite Grandma Lin's bed.

In the Lin family, there are often incidents of not eating breakfast, especially when Lin's father asks for his mother.

The Lin family seems to have a hereditary lazy bed gene...... So the most thing that happened to Lin Xiaoxiao in her previous life was being late, all kinds of lateness.

I woke up at seven o'clock in the morning and went out to work at seven o'clock...... So Lin Dad and Lin Mom habitually don't eat breakfast all year round, and only get up at 90 o'clock in the morning to have breakfast on weekends. Lin Xiaoxiao had breakfast with Grandma Lin every day before she went to school, because Grandma Lin got up late and was greedy, so there would never be a shortage of breakfast.

But since I have to go to class now, I have to use a time retarder in the morning, and I don't want to be discovered by my parents, so the best defense is to buy an early.

Mother Lin complained, didn't sleep anymore, got up and ate breakfast, and then simply cleaned up and went to work.

Dad Lin was the same, but after leaving, he repeatedly told Grandma Lin that she must send Lin Xiaoxiao to the Luhe River, and watched Lin Xiaoxiao enter the door of Gu's house.

After Lin's father and Lin's mother left, the time had reached more than eight o'clock.

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Grandma Lin with a smile: "Grandma, I'll go by myself." ”

"No way!" Grandma Lin firmly disagreed.

"Look, I could have bought it early in the morning......"

"That's not going to work either!"

"I went to ...... yesterday myself"

"No way!"

"I know the ......"

"No way!"

……

So, Grandma Lin sent Lin Xiaoxiao all the way to the door of Gu's house, and watched Aunt Huang come out and take Lin Xiaoxiao in, so she went to the market to buy vegetables. Before leaving, Sister-in-law Huang emphasized several times before Grandma Lin agreed to let Sister-in-law Huang help her send Lin Xiaoxiao home.

No way, who makes themselves young?

Gu Chengyun had already prepared a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and when Lin Xiaoxiao came, he would let her draw a picture at will.

Gu Chengyun's study is not small, with various brushes, scrolls, inkstones, pen holders, and several works hanging on the wall, which decorate this Chinese-style room with a very cultural atmosphere.

On the wall, there is a picture of flowers and birds on a horizontal axis, which is a typical freehand color ink, and the seemingly random brushwork, each stroke is just right, showing the form of birds and flowers to the fullest.

Seeing the rice paper on the table, Lin Xiaoxiao felt a pain in his flesh: "Master, do you want to change it to a newspaper......

"Newspapers?" Gu Chengyun was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "Do you use newspapers to draw at home?" "That day, I heard this child say that her family had no money to buy rice paper, but I didn't expect her to practice it with newspapers?

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: "Well, it's too wasteful to use rice paper." ”

"No waste!" Gu Chengyun shook his head, "I saw the Guanyin you painted that day, your foundation is already good, you don't need to practice with newspapers anymore, now you use rice paper to paint, you can better see where your pen power is insufficient, and where you will draw in the wrong way, if you use newspapers, sometimes you can't see clearly." Moreover, the water absorption of newspapers is different from that of rice paper, and you have to get used to rice paper in order to control the characteristics of pen and ink. ”

In that case, let's draw it, what's polite?

The ink has been ground on the inkstone, Lin Xiaoxiao has never used such a high-grade ink, which time is not the whole bottle of ink in the store? She has been painting for so long, except for the "pen and ink fragrance", she has never seen a serious inkstone anywhere!

After thinking about it, Lin Xiaoxiao raised his hand and drew a small scene of going to the river this morning.

The cloister in the park along the river, a few pines and cypresses, and an old man playing Tai Chi on the road.

These landscapes are presented on paper in a somewhat abstract and freehand way. In fact, she had already sketched this picture once in the morning. Therefore, I have a deep impression of the layout and the subtleties of the characters.

"Yes, I have a good grasp of the shade, but when I draw this corridor, the pen should be used like this......" Gu Chengyun immediately entered the state and gave Lin Xiaoxiao a demonstration.

There are some things that can indeed be done by yourself, but if there is a famous teacher who can help you on the side, it will be half the effort. Like now, Lin Xiaoxiao's bad habits and things she didn't understand when she used to paint in the past, but now through Master Gu's mention, her progress is something that she couldn't achieve in the past by painting for a week!

One old and one young, studied in the study for three hours, and it was noon.

Sister-in-law Huang entered the door and asked the two to eat, Lin Xiaoxiao washed her hands, sat down next to the dining table, and smelled the bursts of fragrance, which was called a sigh!

Sister-in-law Huang's craftsmanship is higher than that of Mother Lin!

Mother Lin's cooking is mainly about taste and less color. And Huang's meal is full of color, flavor and flavor! Lifting the chopsticks and holding a stir-fried shrimp, the taste is really as good as expected.

"Aunt Huang, I want to learn how to cook with you......" Lin Xiaoxiao said vaguely while stuffing rice into her mouth.

"You, learn painting first......" Sister-in-law Huang saw Lin Xiaoxiao's eating image, pursed her lips and laughed again.

"Don't you still have to learn embroidery? Add another to cook? Did you learn it? Gu Chengyun laughed for a while, this child is smart, but I'm afraid that she will be greedy and chew too much, and in the end she will be empty-handed.

Lin Xiaoxiao hurriedly sat up straight and assured the two: "I will learn to draw hard, and embroidery will be learned in my spare time, okay?" ”

Seeing the two nodding, Lin Xiaoxiao hurriedly added: "Then when I wait for Aunt Huang to stir-fry at noon, can I go to observe?" ”

Observe? This girl still has this word? Gu Chengyun laughed and nodded in agreement.

Actually, Lin Xiaoxiao wanted to say that the "onlookers" came......
