Because Ruan Qingqing has never learned sketching seriously, Xu Jingmei doesn't ask for much, just let her draw a thing that she usually sees.

Nguyen gently drew a bite of ice cream.

For the first sketch work in her life, Ruan gently thought that she was so bad that she didn't see it, and she was even embarrassed to give it to Xu Jingmei for comments, but to her surprise, the ice cream she painted was actually praised by Xu Jingmei.

"In terms of works, you are very poorly drawn, but your observation is very sharp, you can grasp the details of things, you are drawing an ice cream that has been eaten, the focus is on this eating, you have handled the details of the tooth marks very well, from this point of view, you have a talent for painting."

In this way, Ruan Qingqing officially became Xu Jingmei's student.

Classes are held twice a week, and one lesson costs 10 yuan.

This price is not cheap, but Xu Jingmei is not only a teacher of Chinese painting, but also a well-known painter, and even the Provincial Art Museum has collected her award-winning paintings, which has a good reputation in the industry.

Most of the art students want to worship her as a teacher, but unfortunately she is more Buddhist and doesn't care about fame and fortune, plus Ruan Qingqing has only accepted a total of three students, and the other two are college students from the Academy of Fine Arts.

For ordinary beginners in painting, teachers start with sketching, but Xu Meijing asked Ruan to learn perspective and line first.

"Learning painting is the same as learning cultural classes, the foundation must be solid, and only by mastering the principles of perspective and the different expressions of lines can you be regarded as mastering the foundation of sketching."

After returning home from the first theory class at Xu Meijing's house, Ruan gently practiced perspective on the objects at home with great interest.

Perspective, in short, is to observe the three-dimensional structure of an object through the plane, and only by mastering the structure of the object will make the painting more full and three-dimensional.

After finishing work, when passing by a breakfast stall, Jiang Chen did not walk over as quickly as usual, but came to the stall and bought three meat buns.

When he returned home and saw the bun in his hand, Jiang Yao's eyes lit up with shock.

"It's a meat bun!"

Just by smelling the smell, Jiang Yao knew what the filling was.

Jiang Yao went to the kitchen happily with the bun, and Jiang Chen went to the toilet to wash his face, and then entered Lin Ronghua's room.

"Mom, eat meat buns this morning."

Lin Ronghua smiled and teased, "Son, is it a good day today?" Why did you think of buying steamed buns to eat? ”

Jiang Chen picked her up and went to the toilet, while replying, "It's nothing, I just thought that I hadn't eaten for a long time, so I will change the taste for you." ”

Lin Ronghua laughed and said that she could eat anything, and there was no need to spend that money.

It is said to be a big meat bun, but in fact, the meat filling is not much bigger than a fingernail, but for the Jiang family, who have not been exposed to meat for more than a month, it is already a rare delicacy.

After breakfast, Jiang Yao hummed a little song to wash the dishes, and Jiang Chen went back to the room to change clothes and prepare to take a bath.

In order to ventilate, the curtain in the middle of the room was lifted, and Jiang Chen saw at a glance that a thick handful of old textbooks were stacked on the small wooden table at the head of Jiang Yao's bed, and the top one was wrapped in a colorful checkered book cover, and the three words "Ruan Qing" were written on the book cover in a dignified and delicate manner.

The ghost sent the gods, Jiang Chen picked up the book and flipped through it, and found that it was a sixth-grade language book.

Compared to the book cover, the inside of the page is more colorful.

The title of each text is framed with watercolor pen, and each box is different, with pink lace shapes, purple bows, colored waves, cloud shapes, and so on.

The black and white illustrations of the text were all painted with watercolor pen, and the blank spaces of the pages were painted with various small patterns such as cats, dogs, flowers and plants, and filled in with watercolor pens.

A good Chinese textbook is like a picture book in kindergarten.

Weird, cute and lovely.

Jiang Chen looked at it while flipping through it, and unconsciously became fascinated, until Jiang Yao washed the dishes and came in, he put the book back on the small wooden table as if he had just woken up from a dream, and turned around to look for clothes as if nothing had happened.

The door was not closed, Jiang Yao had already seen Jiang Chen looking through the books on the small table, but she didn't care, but picked up the language book that Jiang Chen put down and opened it for Jiang Chen to see.

"Brother, you see that my sister draws well and writes well."

Jiang Chen glanced at her, "You think they are all the same as you, and the words are written like dogs." ”

Jiang Yao pouted, "You're embarrassed to say me, you're not writing sparsely." ”

Jiang Chen stopped talking, picked up his clothes and turned his head to go to the toilet.

Jiang Yao grimaced at his back, lowered the curtain, and divided the small room into two spaces.

——

Tonight, Ruan Xiuxiu's dinner table is as rich as the New Year, not only cold pork head meat, but also a large pot of potatoes and roast chicken, and there is almost no roasted fish.

Liu Guilan wanted to buy fish, but she couldn't buy it after going around the vegetable market.

It's hot, and the fish sellers have already closed their stalls.

Ruan Dajiang took a small sip of the wine glass, relishing it, Liu Guilan pinched a chicken wing and gnawed it with relish, Ruan Jiaming gobbled it up as always, like a starving ghost.

The whole family was overjoyed, as if something good had happened, but Ruan Xiuxiu was full of confusion.

As early as the afternoon, when Liu Guilan took the money and asked her to go to the braised vegetable stall to buy pig's head meat, and then go to the wine shop to give Ruan Dajiang two catties of wine, she asked, but Liu Guilan refused to say anything.

She asked Ruan Dajiang and Ruan Jiaming again, but the result was still the same, the father and son were tighter than the other.

After eating a piece of spicy and crispy pig ears, Ruan Xiuxiu asked her doubts again.

"Mom, what's the good thing today, why is it so good to eat."

Liu Guilan spit out the chicken bones in her mouth, looked at her and said, "If you have to eat, you can eat, why do you ask so much?" ”

Ruan Dajiang squinted his eyes and glanced at his daughter, but he didn't squeak.

Ruan Jiaming smiled and opened his mouth, "Sister, why don't you stop studying, call the second uncle to arrange a job for you, and when you earn money, our family can eat so well every day." ”

Ruan Xiuxiu glared at Ruan Jiaming, but she was angry but did not scold Ruan Jiaming.

Since childhood, Ruan Jiaming has been the baby bump in the family, she has to cook, feed pigs, feed chickens and sheep, and go to the field to do farm work, but Ruan Jiaming never does this, at most, when the farm is too busy, she will help a little bit, and she is also accommodating and conniving with Ruan Jiaming's younger brother, as long as Ruan Jiaming is not particularly excessive, she does not care.

Liu Guilan secretly glanced at her daughter, and said slowly, "Don't say it, you can earn no less than being a teacher when you enter your second uncle's garment factory, Teacher Zhou in your school, who has taught all her life, only earns 30 yuan a month, and has to go back to the countryside to farm during the winter and summer vacations, so it is better to go to the city to work and earn more." ”

Ruan Xiuxiu ate silently.

Even if you earn a lot from a part-time job, it can't be compared with the assigned job at all, and the job assigned after graduating from college can eat an iron job for a lifetime.

In any case, she must go to college, and she has solved the most difficult problems, and there is no reason to give up after being told a few words by her family.

Seeing that her daughter was stubborn, Liu Guilan secretly poked and poked Ruan Dajiang to make a look.

Ruan Dajiang put down the wine glass knowingly, smacked his lips and said to his daughter, "When you finish eating, you can clean up your clothes, and go back to the countryside tomorrow to help your grandmother and them harvest the grain and dry the buds." ”
