When Chi Ge went out, what he saw was Su Ciliang concentrating on painting.
He couldn't help but step forward to take a look, and was surprised to find that although Su Ciliang's paintings were immature, they were rarely very charming.
"Little guy, who taught you to draw?" Chi Ge asked curiously.
"No one taught me, I just painted for fun. I didn't paint well. Grandpa Chi, please don't laugh at me." Su Ciliang quickly stood up and was about to rub the painting off the dirt with his feet.
"No, no, no, let me see again!" Chi Ge quickly stopped him.
"Lao Chi, what did you find again?" Du Tonghe heard Chi Ge's excited voice and came forward to ask.
He knew Chi Ge well. Chi Ge had been a steady person since he was a child, and most things could not make him excited.
Chi Ge did not answer Du Tonghe, but looked at Su Ciliang thoughtfully.
His expression was unbelievable. What kind of children are the children of the Su family?
First there is Su Xiaotian who is good at watching, and then there is the second boy who is self-taught and can draw. I don’t know what the children in this family eat when they grow up.
When Du Tonghe saw the painting on the ground, he was also shocked. This child's painting had obviously not been systematically trained, but it was rare to have such charm. No wonder Lao Chi was also shocked.
"Do you want to learn painting from me?" Chi Ge finally asked.
He is not a professional art teacher, but it is too difficult to find a professional art teacher in this small village.
The Su family can rest assured that they can teach Su Xiaotian, and they will also feel assured that they can teach Su Ciliang in the future.
Yu Ruiyuan smiled and said: "This kid is really lucky to be able to attract Lao Chi's attention."
But just as Yu Ruiyuan finished her words, she heard Su Ciliang's answer.
"Painting? What's the point of that? I want to study!"
Su Ciliang subconsciously shook his head, indicating that this was not his ambition.
What? Being disliked?
Several people could not believe hearing such an answer.
Du Tonghe looked at his old friend with a funny expression. He took the initiative to accept a disciple, but was rejected. He should have never had such an experience before, right?
Su Xiaotian packed up her pen and paper and came out of the room a step later than others, just in time to hear this conversation.
She knew that Chi Ge was not only a university professor, but also a well-known painter in the country.
He offered to teach Su Ciliang how to draw, which proved that Su Ciliang was talented in this area.
Su Xiaotian didn't want her second brother to give up such a good opportunity.
She hurriedly stepped forward and said happily: "Grandpa Chi's paintings are beautiful. It would be great if my second brother could also draw beautiful paintings."
With his starry eyes, Su Ciliang couldn't help but almost agreed.
But he still hesitated.
Painting is not a real job, but my sister wants him to paint, what should I do?
"Second brother, Grandpa Chi is willing to teach you to draw!" Su Xiaotian reminded again: "If you learn it, you can draw it for me. When I grow up, I will also know what I looked like when I was a child.
"
Su Xiaotian continued to mobilize. Her second brother liked painting, and since he was good at it, it was not impossible to use some tricks to get him to agree.
Du Tonghe looked at the brother and sister curiously, not knowing why they were having such a conversation.
"Xiaotian, I heard someone said that there is a photo studio in the county where you can draw people exactly the same with just one click." Su Ciliang said hesitantly.
"But our family has no money!" Su Xiaotian said matter-of-factly: "Besides, it's not easy to go to the county town. If my second brother learns to draw, he can draw for me at any time."
Chi Ge's is a bit messy, what is all this?
Painting is painting, what does it have to do with anything else?
However, just words like this actually changed Su Ciliang's mind.
"Grandpa Chi, if you teach me how to draw, can I draw my sister?" Su Ciliang asked.
"sure."
"Then I will learn painting from you! Who told my sister to want me to learn?" Su Ciliang said very distressed.
Although painting is really worthless, who can make Xiaotian like it? For Xiaotian, he must do the hard work!
Du Tong and his wife looked at the two children. What did this mean?
Did he learn it because his sister asked him to learn it?
Well, that’s okay too!
Anyway, as long as Chi Ge achieves his goal.
Su Xiaotian smiled at her brother with great satisfaction.
Then, Su Xiaotian walked up to Chi Ge and said, "Grandpa Chi, my second brother is really good at painting."
Chi Ge nodded: "I can tell, it's good."
Su Ciliang thought, he is a good person, are you talking about him?
No one in the family said he was a good person, either that he was a troublemaker or that he was a naughty boy!
Why would Grandpa Chi still praise him as a good person?
"Xiaotian, you are very smart, and your second brother is also very good. I am even interested in meeting your other brothers." Chi Ge couldn't help but touched Su Xiaotian's furry little head and said.
"I will have the opportunity to come and visit Grandpa Chi with my other brothers some other time." After Su Xiaotian thanked him, she turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly thought of something.
"Grandpa Chi, I have another question, can I ask you?" Su Xiaotian asked casually, without high hopes. After all, as far as she knew, Chi Ge didn't seem to be an agriculturist.
"What's the problem? Tell me. Maybe I'll know?"
"Grandpa Chi, why does the yield not decrease if you keep the wheat you grow as seeds, but the yield will drop if you keep the corn seeds? Is there any way to keep the corn seeds without reducing the yield?"
Chi Ge was speechless, and the little girl actually asked a question about agriculture. In this aspect, he was just like an idiot and knew nothing about it!
He looked at Du Tonghe with a wry smile and said, "Old Du, come and explain to this kid!"
Du Tonghe was actually very surprised when he heard Su Xiaotian's question.
How could a child think of such a question?
What kind of magical child is this?
"This is a very complex issue related to plant genetics. It is too difficult for you to understand it." Du Tonghe did not answer clearly.
He felt that teaching such knowledge to a child was similar to playing the piano to a cow, right?
However, Su Xiaotian asked persistently: "Grandpa Du, I know that if the conditions are properly controlled, wheat varieties will not degenerate, and the genotypes of future generations can remain stable, so that the excellent characteristics of the previous generation varieties can be maintained. Why?
What can’t be done with corn? Is there any way to make corn the same as wheat and maintain high yields by planting seeds on your own?”
Su Xiaotian asked persistently.
Du Tonghe was even more surprised. This child either didn't understand, or asked because he understood. It seemed that he had underestimated this little girl.
This time, he did not treat Su Xiaotian as a child, but as a person who could communicate with him, and seriously explained the reasons and the future development trends that he could understand.
