"Why do you suddenly want to go to the lantern festival? Can your parents agree?" Su Jing and Su Yun are indeed brothers, and they said exactly the same thing.
"Fourth brother wants to go, fifth brother wants to go, and we all want to go. The key is that we have never seen the world and want to join in the fun. Moreover, a few days before the lantern festival, there will definitely be many people from nearby counties and towns going to the state capital to watch the lantern festival. With such a good opportunity, of course I will make a lot of money!”
Watching the lantern show is secondary, making money is secondary, the main thing is to coax the eldest brother out of the academy.
At the same time, Su Yi, who was sitting at home, suddenly sneezed. Jiang Yu, who was painting with him, asked him if he had a cold.
Su Yi shook his head and said his nose was just itchy.
He never said that he also wanted to go to the Lantern Festival, of course, that was what he was thinking.
"But the closer the exam is, the more I should not waste any time preparing for the exam!" Su Jing hesitated.
"It's a waste of time. Going to see the world is not a waste of time. The knowledge in books is too rigid. Everything you look at is knowledge. Brother, believe me, this trip will be worthwhile!"
Su Wan was determined to pull him over, waving his arm and begging him, as if he was coquettish.
Su Jing couldn't stand her coquettishness, so she smiled lovingly and tapped her forehead gently with her fingertips:
"Hey, I really can't do anything about you. Why don't you promise me, brother?"
"Keep your word. Brother, please ask for leave from the academy in advance. Can you come back three days in advance?"
Remember to bring the books you want to read, as well as pen, ink, paper and inkstones, so you can read them at home!" Su Wan's every word was full of routine, but Su Jing saw that her sister had a filter and had no doubts at all.
"Okay, I'll listen to you!"
"Then don't go back on your word. If brother goes back on his word, I will be angry!" Su Wan deliberately made a sullen face and made it sound like the consequences would be serious.
Su Jing was even amused by her. His sister was the cutest.
Finally, Su Wan left the academy with satisfaction. The two brothers squatted at the entrance of the academy and waited for more than half an hour, feeling like they were about to grow a beard.
Su Yun complained at the first sight:
"Su Wan, my aunt, you are finally back. If you don't come back, grass will grow on my grave."
"Nonsense, fourth brother, don't talk about these unlucky things!"
It was not a good idea for a young man to say that there was grass growing on the grave, so Su Wan made a silencing gesture to him.
"What did you say to eldest brother? You've been talking for so long!" Su Chen didn't feel so resentful.
"It's nothing, just a few words about home affairs!" She didn't tell them one by one what she said.
"Can you say a few common words for most of an hour?" Su Yun didn't believe it.
"My eldest brother also took me to visit the academy, so I was delayed for a while."
Nowadays, Su Wan doesn't even make a draft of her lies. After all, she has lived a life that she hates.
But she was a white lie, a white lie, and she began to conquer herself.
"Okay..." Su Yun muttered. Both brothers carried a lot of things, but Su Wan was the only one with nothing.
…
On the way, I went to Grandma Cai’s house and bought two chickens. I also spent extra money to buy an old hen that no longer laid eggs. I was going to wait for Su’s mother to come back so that I could stew her to replenish her health.
When they came back, Jiang Yu and Su Yi were still painting.
Also being bored at home, Su Yi asked Jiang Yu if he knew how to paint. Jiang Yu said he knew a little bit about it, so the two began to compete.
They also agreed to paint the same content. Su Yi suggested painting Su Wan. Jiang Yu also had the same intention, so the two of them started painting tacitly.
Su Yi was so focused that he didn't even notice that Su Wan had returned and was standing behind him silently.
When she saw the people in the paintings of the two of them, she couldn't help but feel a little bit in her heart, because they all painted herself.
Jiang Yu has finished, looking at his own rhythm with satisfaction. The picture he painted of Su Wan is slightly raising his head and looking at the sky, with a faint smile on his face. At first glance, this painting is quite realistic, but after looking at it, Su Yi’s, you can immediately see the difference.
The Su Wan painted by Su Yi was a figure with her back turned, her face turned around, revealing 60% of her appearance, still smiling, but he even painted the pear dimples at the corners of her mouth.
Su Wan had bought him a fine brush specially used for sketching before, and he had painted the details so vividly that even the hair was so real.
The eyelashes are distinct and very expressive. If Jiang Yu's Su Wan is only five points like her, then the Su Wan in his painting is nine points, as if she is coming to life from the painting.
Just as Su Wan was about to say something, Jiang Yu made a silent gesture to her, indicating that Su Yi was very focused at the moment and not to disturb him.
Su Wan immediately shut up. Su Chen and Su Yun came over and were shocked when they saw the painting, and they tacitly agreed not to disturb.
After finishing the last stroke, Su Yi was still not satisfied. When he looked up, he found that his neck was numb, and Su Wan was standing behind him watching him paint.
Su Yi blushed and was about to block the painting, but Su Wan stopped him:
"Fifth brother, you are so awesome. I like this painting so much. Can you give it to me?"
Su Wan loved this portrait so much. She liked both the painting style and the person in the painting.
Instantly I felt like I was sublimated and became taller.
"You like it? But I feel like I'm not good at painting!" It was unexpected that Su Wan would like him, but his requirements for himself were too high.
"Isn't this called painting well? Fifth Brother, do you want to be a god?" Su Wan thought, are all these artists so cruel to him?
Su Yi blushed and was embarrassed to answer.
"Fifth Brother, I think you are only one chance away from success. Once the chance comes, your limelight will be overwhelming!"
In the original work, the fifth brother later gained the appreciation of a great scholar in the literary world and promoted his paintings everywhere. Finally, his paintings were passed to the hands of the saint. The saint, who always loved these things, was happy and stamped his seal on them, and the fifth brother became popular. Since then, he has spoken with his strength and quickly entered the literary world, where he has a high status. He is known as the youngest Confucian scholar in history and has gained the reputation of a painting fairy.
Poems, songs, music, chess, calligraphy and painting have been refined things since ancient times, and those who are accomplished in this field are collectively called Confucian scholars.
"What sister Wan Wan said is too exaggerated. I don't dare to take it seriously. How can I encounter any opportunities if I have no teacher or power?" Su Yi smiled bitterly. He was still too pessimistic.
"Fifth brother, relax, gold will shine wherever it is placed. You are still young, and opportunities are reserved for young people!"
"I think Su Wan is right. Su Yi, your talent in painting cannot be underestimated. When I compare painting with you, in front of you, it is just an ordinary stone, dull and dull, but you are now You are a pearl covered in dust, just waiting for the destined person to find you and shine!"
Jiang Yu never bowed his head to anyone, but he was convinced when he lost.
Su Yi heard this and took a look at his painting. OK, judging from his standards, it was indeed not eye-catching, but he smiled and said nothing. He was also very arrogant, right?
