~7 min read 1,303 words

Xia Zhu was a little puzzled: "Brother Xinghui, isn't it enough for you to give me advice? Why do you need others to give me advice?"

Su Xinghui felt a warmth in his heart. She is really a silly girl. There is only Brother Xinghui in her heart, and she doesn't even accept the advice of such famous calligraphers and painters.

Su Xinghui said warmly: "Xia Zhu, there are people outside people, and there is a sky outside the sky. There are many people in the world who paint better than me. Besides, with your good talent, accepting more advice from others can help you learn from others' strengths, which will be good for your artistic achievements in the future."

Xia Zhu nodded obediently: "Fine, Brother Xinghui, I will go if you let me go."

Xia Zhu entered her room, took out the painting "Bamboo Township Autumn Rhyme" she painted, and brought a bamboo weaving painting "Eight Horses Map", which she had finished and was ready to hand over to the village.

Su Xinghui said to Xia Shisheng: "Uncle Xia, then Xia Zhu and I will go to the village committee together."

Xia Shisheng's face was full of smiles: "You go."

Arriving at the village committee, Qu Ziqing said with surprise: "The genius you mentioned is such a beautiful girl?"

Su Xinghui nodded: "It's her, her name is Xia Zhu."

After speaking, Su Xinghui introduced the identities of Qu Ziqing and others to Xia Zhu. Everyone praised Xia Zhu for being beautiful. Xia Zhu was embarrassed by their praise, blushed and greeted them one by one.

Su Xinghui put the "Bamboo Township Autumn Rhyme" painted by Xia Zhu and the "Eight Horses Map" woven by her on the table, and let several calligraphers and painters look at them. After they looked at them, they were amazed.

Chen Hanshu said: "Girl, who did you learn to paint from? How long have you learned? Have you had any foundation in learning to paint before?"

Xia Zhu said: "I learned from Brother Xinghui. I started learning from last August. I haven't painted before."

Everyone was surprised. Chen Hanshu said: "Then you have only learned for less than half a year?"

Xia Zhu nodded.

Chen Hanshu sighed: "No wonder Little Su said you are a genius. Little Su taught well, and you learned well! You have this level after learning for half a year. I don't know how many students I have taught for so many years, and I haven't seen anyone with your talent."

Long Kangrong nodded: "The brush and ink are still slightly immature, but this aura and vigorous vitality are truly innate. In time, the future will be limitless! But don't grind away such aura and vitality, otherwise, like the old man, you can only be considered a painter."

Su Xinghui smiled: "Teacher Long, you overstate it."

Qu Ziqing asked Su Xinghui: "The words on this painting were written by you, right?"

Su Xinghui nodded: "Yes, she has practiced calligraphy for a short time, so I helped her write these words, because she wants to weave a bamboo weaving painting according to this painting, and she has to participate in the Canton Fair."

Yi Mingda said: "This bamboo weaving painting is indeed woven well. Being able to weave such a famous painting with bamboo silk, fiber and hair are all visible, and it is vivid, which really makes me marvel!"

Su Xinghui smiled: "The ability to weave bamboo weaving crafts with bamboo is something Xia Zhu has practiced since she was a child. In order to weave this bamboo weaving painting, she practiced for more than a month. Now she can be called a master in this regard."

Qu Ziqing smiled and said to Chen Hanshu: "Brother Hanshu, such a good student, don't you have the heart to accept students?"

Chen Hanshu looked at Su Xinghui and said: "This is a student taught by Little Su, how can I rob others of their beauty?"

In the art world these days, there is also such a sectarian view. If you teach a student, you can't just give advice. Not only will you not get good, but you will also easily get a lot of complaints, so Chen Hanshu is a bit cautious.

Su Xinghui smiled: "Xia Zhu can't be considered my student. I just taught her some things. I am not a professional teacher of painting. If Teacher Chen is willing to give her advice, I can't ask for it. This can also allow Xia Zhu to learn from others' strengths and improve faster."

Chen Hanshu nodded, looked at Xia Zhu with expectant eyes and said: "Xia Zhu, do you want to go to Jiangcheng Art Academy to study?"

Everyone nodded and smiled. They thought Xia Zhu would definitely agree with joy. How rare is such an opportunity?

But the thing that made everyone's glasses fall off happened. Xia Zhu shook her head without hesitation: "I can't go."

Chen Hanshu asked in surprise: "Why can't you go?"

Xia Zhu said: "My family relies on me alone to make money. I can't go to study."

Qu Ziqing asked: "What is going on?"

Su Xinghui told them about Xia Zhu's family situation: "Now Xia Zhu's family still owes a lot of debt, and she relies on weaving bamboo weaving paintings to make money to pay off the debt."

After hearing about Xia Zhu's family situation, several people shook their heads and sighed, but they also praised Xia Zhu's self-reliance.

Chen Hanshu pondered for a long time and said: "Xia Zhu, how about this, I will sketch in your Yezhugou Village these few days. If you want to learn from me, just find me these few days. If you have the opportunity to go to Jiangcheng in the future, or when you want to study specifically, just go to Jiangcheng Art Academy to find me."

Such conditions are really very generous, but Xia Zhu still looked at Su Xinghui. She still seemed a bit unwilling. Su Xinghui nodded to her, and Xia Zhu said: "Alright, Teacher Chen, I will learn from you these few days."

Chen Hanshu was overjoyed. In art, not only do students choose teachers, but teachers also choose students. Where can I find a student like Xia Zhu? He hurriedly said: "Fine, I will come here to sketch these few days."

Long Kangrong smiled: "Brother Hanshu, you are not teaching her for nothing. Other mountains' stones can attack jade. I think Xia Zhu's bamboo weaving painting is also unique, which is also enlightening to our painting skills. Such texture is too special."

Chen Hanshu nodded thoughtfully. Long Kangrong made sense. In fact, all kinds of art categories are connected. Bamboo weaving painting and Chinese painting are of course connected. If the characteristics of bamboo weaving painting are integrated into Chinese painting, it will of course be good for his Chinese painting skills.

Qu Ziqing said: "Brother Hanshu, then congratulations!"

Several others also congratulated Chen Hanshu one after another. Fang Youcai said to Xia Zhu: "Xia Zhu, congratulations on finding a good teacher!"

Su Xinghui smiled: "Xia Zhu, then let's eat at your house this afternoon, and it will be your apprenticeship banquet!"

Xia Zhu nodded: "Fine, I will go back to cook now."

Fang Youcai also went out. He went to the breeding farm to get a wild chicken and a bamboo rat, and took them to Xia Zhu's house. He wanted to use this to entertain these calligraphers and painters. Their calligraphy and painting can promote Yezhugou well, so of course they want to take the best things here to entertain guests.

Xia Zhu cooked this meal herself, made a table of rich dishes, and invited these calligraphers and painters to have a good meal. This meal was her apprenticeship banquet to Chen Hanshu.
