Chapter 140: Folk Crafts: Sugar Painting

Soon after, Li Xianyu arrived at the school gate.

Xiao Di was already waiting at the door.

After seeing Li Xianyu, he walked over. When I saw the eggplant on the motorcycle again, I was surprised: "So many? ”

Li Xianyu said: "It's too much. You take it back and eat it slowly. ”

Xiao Di said, "Thank you." ”

Then he pointed to a place and said, "How about I invite you to eat that?" ”

Li Xianyu smiled: "You want to invite me to eat again!" ”

The last time I sent eggs, Xiao Di invited me to eat Malatang.

This time Xiao Di pointed to the place......

After Li Xianyu saw it clearly, his eyes lit up.

It was a candy painting stall.

Sugar painting, one of my favorite foods when I was a child, has not eaten it for many years.

The so-called sugar painting is a kind of food that uses sugar as a material to make shapes.

The tools used are only one scoop and one shovel.

The craftsman first uses red and white sugar with a little caramel and puts it on the stove to boil over a warm fire.

After the sugar is boiled into a syrup, a spoonful of the syrup is scooped up with a spoon and then cast back and forth on a special plate to outline various animal shapes.

For example, dragons, phoenixes, fish, butterflies, monkeys, and so on.

When the sketch is complete, glue a bamboo skewer on it.

Finally, use a small shovel to scoop up.

It is a traditional folk handicraft and an intangible cultural heritage of the country.

One such stall, often with a turntable.

The turntable is surrounded by a variety of sugar-painted animals.

How much money is transferred once, what kind of animal is transferred, is what kind of animal.

When I was a child, the animal I most wanted to turn to was the dragon.

Because dragons are the largest, they use the most sugar juice.

Sugar painting stalls are rare nowadays.

I didn't expect there to be one here.

Li Xianyu was very happy and said, "When did there be a sugar painting stall there?" I don't think I saw it before! ”

Xiao Di said: "There have been before, but maybe you haven't encountered it." The boss is from the town of Xianshui next door. There are still a lot of stalls here. ”

I see.

I didn't run into it once before, but I happened today, and I was lucky.

"Let's go, let's go and see." Li Xianyu said.

"Good!" Seeing that Li Xianyu was interested, Xiao Di was very happy.

The two of them walked to the candy painting stall.

There were already seven or eight people gathered here, and the boss's business seemed to be good.

The boss just picked up a spoonful of sugar juice and began to sketch.

Only ten seconds later, a rather vivid fish appeared on the board.

The whole action is done in one go, with hardly any pauses.

It's pleasing to the eye.

This is a real craftsman, but also a folk arts and crafts master.

After the fish is outlined, the boss glues a bamboo skewer, scoops it up with a shovel, and hands it to a customer in front of the stall.

There is a turntable on one side of the stall that can be turned. Go to which animal, which animal is it.

You can also directly ask the boss to make the desired animal.

Do it directly, the price is a little more expensive.

"Would you like to take a turn? Two dollars for one transfer. Xiao Di said.

"It's going to turn." Li Xianyu smiled, "I see if I can turn a dragon?" ”

After speaking, he walked to the turntable and said to the boss: "Boss, I'll turn it once." ”

The boss smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”

Li Xianyu gently flicked the needle. Slowly, the needle stops, and the needle points to a butterfly.

It's not a dragon, it's a pity. But butterflies are not bad either.

Next, Xiao Di also turned around.

The pattern that goes to is a phoenix. This made Xiao Di very happy.

The size of the phoenix and the amount of sugar used are second only to the dragon.

It's also very cool to be able to transfer to Feng.

Li Xianyu didn't continue to spin. One turn is enough.

The next time you encounter a candy painting stall, turn around.

The boss quickly made a butterfly and a phoenix, and gave them to Li Xianyu and Xiao Di respectively.

Xiao Di paid four dollars.

Two people held butterflies and phoenixes respectively, and ate while walking.

The taste is very good.

"By the way, what if I went to set up a candy painting stall?" Li Xianyu said suddenly.

"Ann?" Xiao Di was very surprised, "You want to set up a candy painting stall? Why did you suddenly remember to set up a candy painting stall? ”

Li Xianyu said: "It's just that I suddenly became interested." This is our traditional folk craft. But now there are fewer and fewer sugar painting stalls, and many young people have never seen them, never eaten them, or even heard of them. It's always a pity. When I set up a stall, I can do some live broadcasts appropriately, so that those who don't know about sugar painting can know about sugar painting and understand sugar painting. It feels like a good thing. ”

"I see." Xiao Di listened, "I think it's okay." I also think that folk crafts like sugar paintings, which can be eaten and appreciated, should be known by more people. Otherwise, if it is lost one day, it will definitely be a very huge loss. ”

Li Xianyu nodded, "That's right." ”

"But," said Xiao Di again, "you probably won't! That's a handiwork. ”

Li Xianyu said: "You can't learn." ”

"Yes." Xiao Di said, "You should be able to learn very quickly. Then I'll wait for your candy painting stand to open. ”

Li Xianyu laughed and said, "Okay! ”

Slowly, the two of them returned to Li Xianyu's motorcycle. I finished eating the candy painting in my hand.

took the eggplant to Xiao Di and carried it, and Li Xianyu planned to go back.

Xiao Di once again expressed his gratitude. Then he said: "By the way, when will you update the next case of "Young Bao Qingtian"?" ”

Li Xianyu smiled: "Are you also watching?" ”

Xiao Di nodded, "Look! I read all your books. Now some people on the Internet say that the first case is too small and is nothing. Those people must be just envy and jealousy. ”

Li Xianyu said: "It's okay, let them say it." However, the next case will be a lot bigger, and that will be the real first case. And then then there was a super shocking case. Bao Zheng will also become famous all over the world because of that case. ”

Xiao Di was overjoyed when he heard this, "I can't wait to see it." ”

Li Xianyu smiled: "I won't wait too long. The next case will be released tomorrow. ”

Xiao Di was even more pleased, "That's great! ”

Then, the two said goodbye to each other.

Xiao Di carried the eggplant back to school, and Li Xianyu rode home on a motorcycle.

After returning home, Li Xianyu called the system in his mind, "System, is there any such thing as a sugar painting making skill book?" ”

If there is no system, Li Xianyu will definitely be able to master the sugar painting technique after studying hard.

However, since there is a system, it must be how easy it is not how to come.

"Host, yes. Not only sugar painting, but also a variety of folk craft skills. "It's rare for the system to say so many words this time.

Li Xianyu was overjoyed, and said, "Then let's have a sugar painting skill first." ”

"Okay, host."

Soon, Li Xianyu mastered the skills of making sugar paintings.

It feels very good.

Let's see when it's time to set up a sugar painting stall.
