Chapter 242: Tests from All Sides (1)
After finishing the painting, Wang Jinyi looked at it carefully and felt that the artistic conception was just right and that it was enough to stop here.
But I think there is still so much time left and there is no time to waste. Since my mother wants to test my painting skills, I might as well show her the painting style that I am really good at.
After all, everyone in my family has seen my sketches, and now with colored pencils, the colors are rich enough to show my level!
"Xia Yu, go to the study and ask Mo Yu to bring up colored pencils and white linen paper."
After a while, Xia Yu came back with white papers of different sizes and Mo Yu holding a box of colored pencils.
Wang Jinyi stroked the graininess of several types of white linen paper. After selecting one, referring to the size of the paper, he quickly sketched the outline, then used different colors to highlight the outline, rendered it to emphasize the color, and then used similar colors for transition...
When her mother came back to check after work, Wang Jinyi was working on the painting of beautiful autumn scenery, emphasizing the red and yellow colors to create a rendering effect, and the whole painting was basically completed.
The mother feels that her daughter has grown so much in the six years since she last saw her!
First, he earned a fortune, and it was a fortune that he was allowed to acquire under the restrictions set by the literati.
Not only did he expand his business throughout the Daqi Dynasty, but he also developed it safely under the noses of his grandparents.
Despite being so busy, I still learned singing, painting, and calligraphy, and have achieved some success.
That’s not all. The daughter also takes care of her brother’s life, delivers supplies to Qiannan on time every season, and takes care of her parents.
She was able to maintain a good relationship with her grandparents, and even assimilated the clan leader, who specially fought for an opportunity for her to go to Beiyukou. Even the royal family had to send people to pick her up and protect her!
The mother was deeply troubled as she picked up the ink painting her daughter had just finished.
This is a painting looking down at the mountains and rivers. A robe is floating on the high cliff, and the rest of the mountain and forest scenery is painted from a bird's-eye view. In a quiet forest, springs gather into streams and flow through the mountains. The forest has both static and dynamic moments, and the layout is reasonable, and the picture is distant and beautiful.
The mother pushed the painting forward, and looking at the whole painting, it had a hint of a hermit.
But on the left side of the painting there is a person standing on a high hill overlooking the mountains, forests and waters, and there is a special feeling that everything is under control!
This mysterious contradiction made the mother shake her head and wanted to refer to her daughter's poem to see the deeper meaning of this painting:
After the fresh rain in the empty mountain, the weather is late in autumn.
The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring flows over the rocks. …
The picture shows the silence of the empty mountains and the natural tranquility after the autumn rain, which is completely in harmony with the poem. The mother looks at her daughter with pride as she is still painting another picture with brilliant colors.
The colored pencil drawing is half red and half yellow, with tenacious green dotted in between the lush green, and the gorgeous mountain scenery is picturesque.
When finishing a painting, Wang Jinyi wrote the four big words "Autumn Colors of the World" with a colored pen.
Then he let out a long breath and pushed the colored pencil drawing to his mother.
The mother looked carefully from top to bottom at the gorgeous and continuous mountain range. In the autumn colors, it was like a colorful gallery, colorful and gorgeous, so beautiful!
The mother was secretly surprised that her daughter's painting skills were getting better and better, to the point of being amazing. Jin'er only used simple colored pencils to present the gorgeous autumn colors. She didn't know how to describe it for a moment and was actually silent.
Huang Xing, the little maid in my mother's room, gently reminded:
"Miss, Mo Yu is outside the door."
Wang Jinyi quickly put down her pen and said, "Let her in!"
Mo Yu came in with a few pages of paper and handed them to the young lady. Wang Jinyi knew that this was the revised resettlement list of the Kushuishan people. She took it and read it carefully, then pointed out a few deficiencies. "After copying it, pass it to Wang Luanhe and ask him to follow up and report back when there is news."
Mo Yu received the young lady's instructions and went out.
Wang Jinyi turned around and wanted to ask her mother whether her painting could pass the test, and then she saw her mother spreading the ink painting flat and pressing it down with a ruler.
The colored pencil drawing of "Autumn Scenery on Earth" was rolled into a tube by my mother and placed there. "That's all for today's test. Your two drawings will be evaluated by your father and grandparents respectively to decide whether you have passed."
When Wang Jinyi heard this, it turned out that there were four examiners for this exam. It seemed that she had to correct her attitude and really put in some effort if she wanted to pass this test!
Wang Jinyi asked her mother to take a seat, then stood up politely, waiting for her mother to judge. "Jin'er, in the past few years since I left, I wonder how much of the Four Books and Five Classics you still remember? How well have you mastered them? In the next few days, I will start with the Four Books. This will also be a chance for your mother to come back and feel out the foundation of your studies over the years.
Of course, I also want to see what you like. If the book you don't like is really useless to you, then forget it. If there is something you are interested in, we can study it in depth. What do you think?"
Wang Jinyi was very happy that her mother was asking for her opinion. What a democratic family this is! They actually gave their children enough autonomy in their studies! It was rare!
"Mom, to be honest, I really want to calm down and learn something, but I don't have enough time now.
I have so much to do at home, how about this, you test me while I hand over to you, today you have finished testing me, whether I pass or not, that is tomorrow's business, we will hand over the warehouse today."
Seeing that her mother was still hesitating, Wang Jinyi insisted:
"Now that you're back, Mom, I really want to relax. I'm not being unfilial!"
Wang Jinyi shook her mother's arm as she spoke, begging her mother in a somewhat coquettish manner. Seeing that her mother did not clearly object, she simply dragged her mother out.
At the door, he bumped into Zhu Yu who was coming over to do something. Zhu Yu quickly stepped aside, bowed to the lady first, and then reported respectfully:
"Miss, the matter of recruiting apprentices for the needlework room that you arranged has been arranged. Wen Bai said that he wants to ask you for your advice on something."
The mother also stopped along with Wang Jinyi.
Zhu Yu walked closer and whispered, "Miss, when you were recruiting students for your training class, there was a special person who signed up. Wen Bai couldn't make a decision, so I would like to ask you to decide whether to keep this person."
Wang Jinyi asked curiously, "Who is it?"
Zhu Yu's voice became even softer, so that only Wang Jinyi could hear it, and he whispered two words: "Sinful slave!"
Wang Jinyi turned back in surprise, staring into Zhu Yu's eyes, and subconsciously asked, "Why?"
Zhu Yu looked at the lady's suddenly fierce eyes and took a half step back in fear, and asked stumblingly:
"What what why?"
Wang Jinyi understood that the root of this problem was Wenbai. Wenbai himself was a government slave. His entire family was convicted because of his father, and they became government slaves.
Wen Bai might have some sympathy for the person, but he was unable to make the decision, so he had to push it onto himself to decide whether to keep this person or eliminate him.
