Seeing the confusion in my eyes, Granny Su pressed the elevator floor button and smiled lovingly at me, "Grandma has been painting all her life. Do you know what is the most difficult to paint?"
I thought for a while and said, "Character."
Granny Su held the corner of her lips and patted the back of my hand, "So, it's difficult to draw people, let alone be a human being. Some people always like to use too much force. In fact, it's not difficult to like someone.
It doesn’t require you to be smart, clever, or discerning, as long as you are sincere enough to treat others. Unfortunately, there are always people who confuse the subject and the object, and ignore the fundamentals.”
I understand. It seems that Su Yutan has gone too far and is giving back the pearl.
When I went to Grandma Su's cloakroom, the old lady took out the altered cheongsam and asked me to try it on.
I took the cheongsam and suddenly realized that it seemed a little thinner.
I wanted to express my doubts directly, but then I thought, these are Granny Su's clothes. If there is a problem, she will definitely be the first to find out the clues.
Besides, the last time I touched this cheongsam was last year. It has been less than half a year, so my memory may be inaccurate.
Facing Granny Su's expectant eyebrows, I took the cheongsam and went to the innermost dressing room.
After I changed it, I looked in the mirror and found that the overall look was still weird. The bust size can only be said to be just right. Whenever my breathing increased, my front became tense. This satin gave me a feeling that it would crack in a minute. It was really
It's almost as thin as pajamas.
The most important thing is the front and back...
The waist is pinched too tightly, which makes me look plump and visually I have gained weight for no reason!
"Grandma, I feel like this cheongsam doesn't look too..."
"So beautiful."
As soon as the door of the dressing room opened, Grandma Su looked at me with surprise, "Qingqing, grandma said that this cheongsam suits you. Your body is light and exquisite. You stand tall and graceful when you stand here. It's beautiful, so beautiful!"
"Really?"
I didn't dare to take a big breath, "Grandma, this fabric..."
"Qingqing, you are so beautiful!"
Su Yutan also walked in with a look of amazement, "Grandma, it has to be done by a master. Look how well this cheongsam has been modified to fit you. It looks so elegant when you wear it!"
"Qingqing already has a good temperament, and her clothes are just decoration."
Hearing Granny Su's words, Su Yutan's eyes showed some embarrassment, and she said with a smile, "Yes, Qingqing has a good temperament and looks beautiful in whatever she wears. Grandma, your old friends are here, do you want to take Qingqing down?"
Let’s go upstairs and get to know each other.”
With that said, Su Yutan was about to put her arms around my shoulders and go downstairs, but Granny Su raised her hand and said, "Wait a minute."
Seeing that Su Yutan was puzzled, Granny Su looked at me carefully and said, "Qingqing's hair is tied with a wooden hairpin, which matches this cheongsam very well. It's still cold today, so she wears a cheongsam alone... Meiling."
, please take out my light-colored shawl."
Sister Meiling responded and took out a cashmere shawl from the cabinet. Grandma Su took it and put the shawl on me. Then, she asked Sister Meiling to take out a pair of off-white French high heels for me.
Simple and elegant, it highlights the femininity, and the heel is very thin.
I tried it on and it was very soft and fit well.
"That's almost it. Now you don't have to worry about catching a cold."
Granny Su nodded with satisfaction, "Let's go, Qingqing, go downstairs with grandma to meet your uncles..."
I followed Grandma Su obediently. This shawl was so big that it almost covered my entire upper body. It gave me a lot of sense of security when I put it on. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t want to go downstairs wearing a cheongsam alone. It’s inexplicable.
There is no bottom.
"Oh, my granddaughter is so beautiful when she is dressed like this. She is dignified, slender, and trimmed short..."
All the way downstairs, Granny Su's heart and eyes were full of me. From time to time, she would help me straighten my shawl and tuck away the broken hair on my temples.
I don't know if we were too close, but Su Yutan felt a little left out. She followed behind with stiff facial features. Even if she raised her lips to smile, she was still smiling. It seemed that she couldn't even pretend to be happy.
The resentful aura floated out, and Granny Su turned back to look at her, "Xiao Su, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Su Yutan regained consciousness for a moment and said with a smile, "Grandma, maybe I got up too early and didn't have breakfast...but it's okay with me."
Granny Su asked, "Are you feeling flustered?"
Su Yutan's eyes were confused, "Grandma, I'm not panicking."
"I mean, you may have low blood sugar. People who have symptoms of hypoglycemia will panic."
Grandma Su smiled lightly and said, "You have to eat more in a while. While you are young, you have to take good care of your body. If you miss this time, it will be difficult to make up for it."
I frowned slightly, always feeling that Granny Su had something else to say.
Su Yutan nodded, "Grandma, I know, don't worry, I will take good care of myself."
Ding~
The elevator door opens.
The guests in the living room immediately drew Granny Su's attention.
When everyone saw Granny Su showing up, they came over to greet her and asked her for her welfare.
Grandma Su switched to social mode, held my hand and exchanged greetings with a smile on her face.
"Don't worry, my body and bones are still fine. Thank you for your concern..."
On the surface, Grandma Su is a healthy old man, elegant and luxurious in every gesture, without any signs of illness.
The visitors were all old friends of Granny Su, and they all expressed their relief when they saw this, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Even though it was their first time meeting me, they all called me Qingqing and praised me politely.
I got to know a circle of people, including the cooks and presidents of the Painting Association, as well as contemporary famous calligraphers.
As soon as many names were introduced, I even had the urge to take out a small book and ask for autographs, but when I thought of my identity as Sister Qingqing...
It’s really inappropriate to let this star chasing go.
I can only suppress the turbulence in my heart for life.
I never dreamed that Granny Su would invite so many great calligraphers and painters to her family dinner. It was really eye-opening!
Since they are all people in the field of calligraphy and painting, after the banquet started, the thing they talked about the most was naturally about ink painting.
I sat beside Grandma Su in a decent manner, and all I had to do was keep smiling.
Looking around, we can see that the elders don't eat much, most of them sit leisurely and laugh loudly.
When I heard them talking about Chinese painting schools and representative figures, I listened carefully and learned a lot.
I thought I would sit with him until the end, but unexpectedly, one of the teachers mentioned the method of painting with a big axe, and then posed the question to me, asking if I understood. Su Qingge was worried that I was showing cowardice, so he wanted to change the topic.
Grandma Su looked at me directly and motioned for me to express myself boldly.
Feeling the attention of everyone, I smiled lightly and said, "Juniors dare not do anything for their own work. I can't say that I fully understand it, but I know that the technique of chopping with a big ax was created by the Southern Song Dynasty painter Li Tang in his later years. His representative works include "Ten Thousand Hessions"
"Pine Wind Picture" and so on, the painting style is vigorous and sharp, and the spirit is majestic. Tu Long once said that Li Tang, Liu Songnian, Ma Yuan, and Xia Gui were the four great masters after the southern crossing."
Grandma Su laughed after hearing this, brought me some vegetables, and patted my back gently without saying anything.
