Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 497 Fan Face
The godmother also smiled helplessly, as if she knew her best friend's temper: "Let's not talk about it, we are going to set off early in the morning the day after tomorrow, so we should hurry up and make any preparations. Your ancestor said that you are like a waste every time you go to Sichuan." It's like moving a warehouse."

"That's a joke..." Zhou Zhi looked at the godmother's house, and felt that she and her godfather were the direct disciples of the Gu family. Although they had a lot of salary, they still "sit like a book on the wall", and there was only one under the bed. Changjiang Shidanzi is not ashamed but proud: "This time I have prepared Xianshi soy sauce, red water insect tea, and Xiaguan Tuocha. If we leave early the day after tomorrow, I will go to Fuyin to pull lychees with Little Lei tomorrow night."

"Hmm... Then do I have to prepare something? I haven't seen them for many years..."

"I'm ready." Zhou Zhi took out a few long cloth bags from his bag, and at first glance they were handmade by his grandmother. When he opened them, there were a few folding fans, and the fan bones were made of Xiangfei bamboo and Lizhu: "This is for looking for Beibei. It’s made by the old horse head at Men’s Wharf, I offended my uncle by preparing a fishing rod last time, so I almost didn’t agree to get it for me.”

After speaking, he seemed to think of the old horse's strange temper, and stuck out his tongue.

Ganniang smiled and opened the folding fan, and found a very familiar painting on the fan: "Suzaku Han brick?"

"Yes, it's beneficial without cost." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Lu Xun said that only the stone carvings of the Han people have a deep and magnificent spirit. There are many portrait stones, and I selected some fine products to expand into fans. The ancestors, ancestors, and grandfathers designated them as favorites." of."

"However, how did you make it crooked? Or do you put together parts of several pictures like bricks?" The godmother frowned a little: "And the color of each picture is different..."

That would be showing cowardice, but Zhou Zhi did not dare to say that the godmother was showing cowardice, so he had to patiently explain: "This is a technique called 'Ba Po Tu', also called 'Brocade Ash Pile', which uses painting to depict sundries as piles The scene, the sundries must be old and dirty, corroded by water and fire, it is very broken, and the content is old calligraphy and paintings, fans, stone rubbings, letter albums and other things in the study room."

"Weird." Hearing what Zhou Zhi said, the godmother looked back at the fan: "But it seems quite interesting..."

In fact, playing this is quite useless. When rubbing, you need to tear some pictorial cover parts straight to form natural tear marks, and then you need to smudge the strokes to create the effect of overlapping residual pages, and add different In order to form an aesthetic feeling, the color matching is actually a lot of effort.

Coupled with the fan bone craftsmanship of the old horse head and the fan bag handmade by the grandmother, this folding fan has become a very exquisite cultural handicraft.

"By the way, is Yixiong interested in going to the capital together? Familiarize yourself with the environment in advance?"

"Wait a minute." Only then did the godmother know about it: "Why are you going to the capital?"

"The manager of the art and crafts fee said that he promised to take me to the capital to open my eyes and see many official kiln wares there." Zhou Zhi took care of it all: "If my brother-in-law is interested, I will pay the fee!"

"That's not necessary."

"what?"

"I'm talking about expenses. You don't need to pay for him. It's not like he doesn't have money."

"Godmother, do you agree?"

"Well, it's good to go early to open your eyes. I'll see who is sitting in that Toyota. Me, you, Qiao Mu, Tingting mother and daughter, it's pretty good."

"Uh, godmother, I have two other classmates, and I want to go with them this time." Zhou Zhi has a thick skin, "One is Jiang Shuyi, Tingting is able to study in the Sichuan Yin Middle School, and it is because of the help of Shuyi's sister-in-law. "

"I know, our famous young singer Tang Qi in Sichuan, right?"

"That's right. With her here, it's much more convenient to communicate with Mr. Tang."

"Well, what about another classmate?"

"There is another partner Shu Yi is looking for, you should know it too, He Shiqing, ah, her name used to be He Yongmei."

"I know, I know, I was in the same class as you, and I got the first place in my childhood and now I am the seed of reading. I am small and have a high forehead, right?!"

"Yes, it's her."

"Is there anything special about her going to Shu?"

"That's not true, er, maybe we should go with Shu Yi to visit friends we met during our previous study tours. There are also two classmates who are already working in Sichuan."

"Elbow, you have classmates who are working in Shudu? Can't you?"

"Yes, there is one named Zhao Zhonggang, who worked as a firefighter in the Central District Squadron and became the squad leader; another named Yan Xiao, who was lucky enough to be sent to the Sports Academy of the Provincial Sports Academy for training, and then selected Provincial Rattan Team."

"You two classmates are really promising."

"Ah, they..." Zhou Zhi was dumbfounded, the halo of "other people's children" can be put on Yan Xiao's head?

"Okay." Ganniang said, "But that way, the Toyota won't be able to sit down. When the time comes, you, Qiao Mu and the teacher will take the bus together."

"Hmm..." Zhou Zhi wanted to use motion sickness as an excuse to transfer Jiang Shuyi to the bus, and then thought that she would be too nervous to die under the watchful eyes of all the teachers, so let's forget it: "Okay, then tomorrow night I will Go fetch lychees with Little Leige."

"I'll go too! Help!" Master Qiao said immediately.

Back home, Zhou Zhi told his mother that Master Qiao got the second place in the county test, and as expected, his mother immediately picked up the phone and dialed.

Zhou Zhi shook his head, so he had no choice but to go upstairs to inform Guan Tingting and Guan's mother that they would leave the day after tomorrow, and talk to Guan Dabin about buying wine by the way.

Guan Dabin thought that Zhou Zhi was pointing him out, so he patted his chest and said that he had packed the wine ceremony.

Of course Zhou Zhi refused, saying that one size fits all, and by the way, my mother told me that I would take them to the house opposite the thatched cottage to have a look, and if they thought it was okay, they could live there as well, which would save me a lot of time in the provincial capital. s expenses.

In the end, Mama Guan made the decision, saying that we don't have to be polite with Elbow, and we will do whatever he says.

However, my family prepared a separate gift for each of Jiang Shuyi's three uncles, which was a proper courtesy.

Zhou Zhi couldn't help laughing, he prepared for Uncle Jiang a bottle of Wuliangye, a bottle of Laojiao Tequ, and a bottle of Dongjiu. I'm afraid Laoguan really only has a bottle of Moutai.

Smiling and teasing Guan Tingting a few words to dispel her nervousness caused by adults talking about these things, and then told her to soak the winter melon skin in water and then drink it, and hooked her up, saying that after a few days, I would treat her to a delicious and spicy hot pot Finally, Zhou Zhi came down from upstairs.

Back home, my mother was still chatting with the godmother. Seeing this, Zhou Zhi reminded: "It's almost done. The godmother is no better than you. She has a regular schedule. She has to rest on time at nine o'clock."

Mom looked at the time and it was almost ten o'clock: "I will talk to you about the fund-raising house another day, and I accidentally talked about it... You should rest quickly! I will tell him about the elbow Yes, um, let's talk again!"

After hanging up the phone, my mother was a little dazed: "Qingbei's grades are at the top, isn't it a bit of a loss?"

"It doesn't matter." Zhou Zhi said carelessly: "Anyway, I still have to study for a graduate student and take a doctorate exam. There are still two opportunities for adjustment."

"Huh?" My mother suddenly reacted: "That's right, isn't the plane's sister, Wei Yi, a graduate student admitted to the First Foreign Language School? She also has a companion when she starts school in Beijing! I have to tell your godmother..."

Before picking up the phone after speaking, Zhou Zhi quickly reached out and held it down: "Sister Yi can still run away? It's not too late to talk about these things in the future, don't worry about it for a while. By the way, Master Qiao will go to Sichuan with me this time Both, and then we will go to the capital together.”

"That's good. I can go get familiar with the school first." My mother never said that. In fact, she was still a little worried about Zhou Zhi's trip to the capital. She has always belonged to the reliable "other people's child" in her heart: "This way you can also have a companion."
