After learning to draw bamboo for three months, the painter began to teach the two children to draw orchids, the long and slender orchid leaves and bamboo leaves are a bit similar, the painter patiently held the fairy's small hand with a brush, extending forward with a little arc, and said the direction of the orchid leaves and the angle of light, and held Shijun's hand to draw the leaves and orchids, the two children listened carefully to the teacher's skills of painting orchids, the two children comprehended the skills of how to draw orchids that the painter said, and kept practicing, and the orchid leaves and orchids drawn were a little immature but very interesting, Both children have a talent for painting, but the little fairy is obviously better at painting, the painter Zhu Li is very satisfied, full of patience to teach the two children, the fairy is also very serious, no longer treat her as a little doll, but really as their own students in the teaching, the attitude of the two children is very correct, very listen to the words of the painter, what the painter says is what, never argue and make trouble, follow the rules of practice, keep observing and painting, keep outlining various forms, the two children are very involved in painting, Painting skills have improved significantly and quickly, with these foreshadowing, the two children are considered to be beginners, the painter Zhu Li was pleasantly surprised, especially satisfied with the little fairy, a gifted child plus diligence, is really a beautiful jade in the painting world.

The painter Zhu Li seriously taught the two children the painting skills of "plum blossom painting", plum blossom petals and stamens, how to draw two petals and three petals floating in the air? What ink color to paint plum dried plum branches and plum blossoms, how to start and put the pen away, and found a lot of pictures about plum blossoms, let the two children copy, and even the poems about the four gentlemen of Meilan, bamboo and chrysanthemum are also compiled into a booklet, so that the two children have to memorize and remember, since ancient times poetry and painting are linked, it is more meaningful, there is a painting in the poem, and there is a poem in the painting to better reflect the realm of painting, the two children listened to it and did it, kept painting plum blossoms, and also communicated with each other, brother Lu Shijun listened to his sister's opinions very seriously, Gradually can copy a good plum blossom picture, grandfather Lu Yunsheng because of these two children to paint plum blossoms, thinking that there are no plum blossoms near his home to see, the child may not be impressed, deliberately inquired where there are plum blossoms, thinking that one day to take two children to see a plum blossom bloom, only immersive to see the flowers, in order to better understand how to draw a good plum picture, this matter in mind. The painter Zhu Li put a lot of plum blossom pictures painted by the painter for the two children to copy, so the two children kept copying, the more they painted, the smoother and smoother, the copied picture is getting better and better, the painter Zhu Li is very satisfied with the progress of the two children. The two children relied on their own impression and interest of plum blossoms, each drew a plum blossom picture, the painter Zhu Li made a comment, "Yes, each has its own characteristics, but the plum blossom has to be separated from the near and far levels of the plum blossom, so that it is more three-dimensional, the light and shade of the light are separated, in order to show the beauty of the plum blossom, let the two continue to practice, with the guidance and direction of the painter, the two students can better understand and comprehend the plum blossom painting."

The painter Zhu Li was very happy to leave the Lu family every time, and after returning to his daughter's house, he was full of praise for the student Lu Xian'er. Granddaughter Jiajia pouted when she heard this, she didn't want to talk more, the painter Zhu Li continued to praise Lu Xian'er, and her granddaughter Jiajia couldn't help it, "Grandpa, my painting is also good, why don't you just praise that Lu Xian'er, why don't you praise me"? Painter Zhu Li and daughter Zhu Yuerong glanced at each other and smiled, Zhu Li also knew his granddaughter's thoughts, "Yes, my granddaughter Jiajia is also very good at painting, but she needs to work harder, do you know that my sister is two years younger than you, but she paints diligently, that brother Lu Shijun knows that his painting talent is not as good as his sister, but he tries to catch up with his sister and draws diligently every day." Granddaughter Jiajia arrogantly said, "I will also be more diligent in painting, and I want my grandfather to praise me every day", Zhu Li praised Lu Xian'er in front of her granddaughter, and said happily, "Okay, we Jiajia must be more diligent in painting, and we can't fall behind my sister", daughter Zhu Yuerong also showed a light smile on her face, looked at her arrogant daughter and said, "Our Jiajia will draw better, and we will definitely be praised by my grandfather", Jiajia nodded, and drew seriously with a brush on the desk, and the painter Zhu Li squeezed her eyes at her daughter Zhu Yuerong, Looking at her father's actions, the corners of Zhu Yuerong's mouth rose and laughed, her father became more and more interesting, the kind of intellectual loftiness that he taught college students all the year round seemed to have been worn out in teaching two children to draw, and there were even some children who were interesting, which was very happy. During the period of learning to paint, Lu Yingcheng and his wife sent Xian'er to kindergarten, wanting to ask Xian'er to have more contact with some children outside, but after Xiao Xian'er went to kindergarten once, she was no longer willing to go, and asked her why she didn't want to go, Xiao Xian'er replied, "Those children, what they eat and drink all day long, crying and making trouble is really boring", Lu Yingcheng and Shen Xinlan both laughed, knowing that their daughter Xian'er was very precocious, and unlike other children, they didn't force their daughter to go to kindergarten, so they let their daughter Xian'er do whatever she wanted at home.

Summer is gradually passing, the painter Zhu Li began to teach the two children how to draw lotus, how to outline lotus leaves with pen and ink, how to draw the lines of lotus flowers, how to make the lotus leaves more beautiful, the two children listened carefully, copying the lotus pictures drawn by the teacher, and then copying the lotus pictures prepared by the teacher. The painter Zhu Li saw that the two children could not practice the lotus brushwork, so he took the two children to a lotus pond not far from Zhuhua Town, and let them observe the color and shape of the lotus leaves by the lotus pond, some of the lotus flowers are half-open, some of the lotus flowers are blooming strongly, some of the lotus flowers have withered, the lotus leaves are the same, some are green, some of the lotus leaves are drooping, the little fairy blinks her big eyes like black grapes and looks at the lotus flowers that are blooming, pink like xiaxia, white like snow, pale yellow stamens, There are also some lotus leaves with water droplets, crystal clear, slowly blowing with the lotus leaves swinging, reaching out to touch a lotus flower by the lotus pond, brother Lu Shijun saw that his sister wanted, and immediately helped his sister reach out and pick one, Lu Shijun also picked one and put it in front of his nose to smell. Seeing this, the painter Zhu Li's mouth showed a smile, "Shijun Xian'er, you touch these lotus petals with your hands, is it more vital than the lotus flowers on the painting", the two children nodded, and the painter Zhu Li said solemnly, "This is called painting, you must go into nature to understand, just copying will be very dull, there is no vitality and sunshine aura." The two students sniffed the lotus carefully, touched the petals of the lotus, looked at the veins on it, the little fairy smelled the lotus in front of the nose, and said to the painter Zhu Li, "Teacher, the lotus is such a big flower, how can the fragrance only have a faint taste", saying that the little nose twitched and sniffed, as if he wanted to smell a very fragrant word, but the fragrance was always light, the painter Zhu Li saw the cute and lovely expression of the little fairy, and said with a smile, "Xian'er, do you think all the flowers are as sweet as jasmine and osmanthus in your home?" It's not like this, many flowers are only a little fresh but not fragrant, but they have their own style, just like bamboo is just tall and fresh" Shijun Xian'er nodded, and the painter Zhu Li continued, "Some flowers are also seasons to reflect her beauty, just like the plum blossoms you painted, the plum blossoms are layered like snow and sunshine, but they bloom proudly in winter, so that people can see such a beautiful scenery in the cold days of winter, do you say beautiful?" These lotus leaves rise and fall one after another in the water, the green leaves are dotted one after another, is it not very beautiful, let people forget the vulgar and cool and comfortable in the hot summer weather, so the ancients had many poems about the lotus "the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are not red in the sun". The lotus flowers painted are also thousands of species, each with its own beauty", listening to the teacher's words, Lu Xian'er looked at a large lotus leaf in front of her, her big eyes were cute and the mist flashed in a blink of an eye, and the painter Zhu Li's heart was soft by the cute, and she took Xian'er's little hand and walked along the lotus pond, telling the story about the lotus. Xian'er paid attention to the shape of the lotus flower and the ripples of the water while walking, and the painter Zhu Li secretly praised the teachable child, and was glad that he had met such a good painting seedling. After going back, the painter Zhu Li compiled a small book of poems about lotus flowers for the two children, asked the two children to recite the songs, and told them some stories about the lotus poet, and the two children listened very carefully.

In the evening, the painter Zhu Li returned to his daughter's house, and the little granddaughter pounced on her and called "grandpa" sweetly. Zhu Li was very happy when she saw her granddaughter, "Grandpa, do you think the lotus flowers I painted are beautiful"? Painter Zhu Li looked at his granddaughter's painting lotus, nodded and said, "Not bad, continue to work hard", Jiajia showed a happy smile on her face, jumped up and down and continued to paint, her daughter Zhu Yuerong smiled elegantly, "Dad, I see that you are in a good mood, and what good things have happened", the painter Zhu Li smiled and said, "Today I took two children to the lotus pond, and told them a lot of stories about lotus, both children are very serious, especially Xiaoxian'er listened to me talk about lotus, she was carefully observing the lotus, I am very satisfied with the teachings that are really teachable", my daughter Zhu Yuerong said with a smile, "Dad, you praise Xian'er all day long, I am curious to see her, if it weren't for the fact that Hangcheng is a little far away." I'm pretty busy, too, otherwise I'd want to see your precious student. Your granddaughter works hard to paint every day, and now she doesn't go out to play, she has never been like this before, but it's okay, I have to thank this little girl Xian'er who has never met, fortunately she is an example, Jiajia also knows that she is diligent. When the painter Zhu Li heard his daughter praise his students, his eyes narrowed into a slit with joy, as if he could see the pink, snow-white ice and snow smart little girl, blinking her eyes like black jewels, overflowing with joy from her heart. At this time, Xiaoxian'er snuggled up to her aunt Shen Xinlan and asked her aunt to sleep with her before leaving.

After Xian'er fell asleep, Shen Xinlan walked out of Xian'er's bedroom and saw her husband Lu Yingcheng standing in the courtyard, her husband in the moonlight was wearing a white shirt, still tall and handsome, Shen Xinlan looked at it a few times, Lu Yingcheng suddenly looked back and laughed, "I haven't seen enough, let's go back to the room and look again", Shen Xinlan's face was hot, and she glanced at her husband silently, her husband Lu Yingcheng came over and took his wife's hand and walked forward, and the two looked at the moon in the sky with the same feeling. "Yingcheng, Xian'er is really distressing, let me be a mother, and I can't help but feel that I haven't done enough. She is a gift from God, but I don't want her to work so hard, I just hope that she can be like other people's children, running around playing mud bars hide and seek and so on, and live a relaxed and happy childhood." Lu Yingcheng held his wife's hand and said with emotion, "Maybe God has long been destined, each has its own destiny, our Xian'er has been different from other children since she was a child, you also see that Xian'er is talented, our son Shijun, don't dare to relax himself too much, has been consciously practicing painting, practicing martial arts and practicing needles, hehe, it's a good thing, other people's families are big with small ones, but our family has become small with big and hard-working, I am happy to see it, I feel that I am extremely proud to have such a daughter", Shen Xinlan looked up at her husband's happy and proud face. "Yingcheng, why do I think your laughter is a little excited and a little cunning", Lu Yingcheng's eyes were blazing and he looked at his wife and nodded, "Our Xian'er qualifications are destined to be extraordinary in the future, and we will definitely do something." But she is also very squeamish, patient, and has a very peaceful and steady attitude, which makes me admire as a father, and my son is really greatly influenced by his daughter Xian'er, and I think my son's future will be good." Shen Xinlan also felt the same way, "Anyway, we just give the best to our daughter, as for how she chooses in the future, it is her business, no matter how bad it is, there is still us as parents who can help." The neighbor next door added a big grandson, when the full moon wine, the Lu family went to congratulate, Li Qingzhu, who was pregnant, looked at this white and tender little baby very much, imagining what his child would be like when he was born, her husband Lu Yingjie smiled on the side and said, "Our child will also look good, I hope to look like you more", wife Li Qingzhu glanced at her husband with a new look on her face, and her heart was very sweet.

The artist began to teach the two children how to draw watercolors, how to paint the different shapes of flowers and leaves, and how to color the petals layer by layer. How to make it gradual? How does the same color create different moods? These make the little fairy very surprised and fascinated, with the teacher's guidance, the hand keeps drawing and sketching, diligent drawing, although the brother Lu Shijun does not understand as fast as his sister, but because the teacher speaks very carefully and continues to practice, Lu Shijun also has a lot of feelings about watercolor painting, Mrs. Lu feels that the children are so young, just so hard, distressed, try to make more delicious food for her grandchildren, brother Lu Shijun also likes to paint, and knows that his talent is not as good as his sister, but he has been working hard, he must work hard, Because my sister's talent is too good, I don't want to be left too far by my sister. Xian'er has a unique sensitivity to color, and the watercolor paintings she painted are very much praised by the painter Zhu Li, and the talented children are the most loved, and the diligence of the little fairy makes the painter Zhu Li even more emotional.
