Chapter 92 Learning and Teaching, Establishing a Personal Studio

"What did you say?" Tong Xiaojing looked at the shy boy in front of her, and was momentarily stunned by his words.

Li Meng looked at her and said firmly: "I want to learn pottery from you. Didn't you ask me last time why you want to learn how to make purple pottery, because being able to make clay into such beautiful things is something to be very proud of." I want to learn Tao from you."

Tong Xiaojing looked at Li Meng's determined look, as if she saw herself in the young man.

Once, when she decided to stay and be Tao, she was so firm.

"I don't have much money yet, and I've already started working." Li Meng said, and secretly took out a thick wad of money from behind and handed it to Tong Xiaojing: "I hope you will be my master and accept me as an apprentice. You can pay the tuition fee, if the tuition fee is not enough, I can work for you, and I can do any hard work."

Tong Xiaojing looked at the money in the boy's hand, it looked like a thick wad, but only the outermost one was one hundred yuan, and the others were ten yuan, five yuan, and one yuan bills.

Obviously, the teenager has worked hard behind the scenes for a long time.

Tong Xiaojing looked at the boy and said seriously: "Tomorrow morning at 08:30, you come to Tianming Workshop on time."

"Are you willing to accept me as an apprentice?"

Li Meng was so excited when he heard Tong Xiaojing's words.

"I didn't say I would take you as an apprentice, I just think that if you really want to learn how to make purple pottery, I can teach you."

"Great, can you collect the tuition first?" Li Meng said, handing a wad of money in front of Tong Xiaojing.

Tong Xiaojing shook her head: "I don't charge money, you can take it back! Just be there on time tomorrow morning."

Li Meng retracted her hand, looked at Tong Xiaojing and nodded heavily; "Well, I will definitely be there on time tomorrow morning." After speaking, he turned and ran away.

Seeing Li Meng running away, Tong Xiaojing smiled. When he met this boy before, he was kicked out by Qian Wenhai, and he was unwilling to teach them. He said some sarcastic words, and the light in the boy's eyes suddenly dimmed. After going down, now, she saw a long-lost light in the boy's eyes.

After Tong Xiaojing came home, at the dinner table that night, she made a suggestion.

"Set up a studio? Isn't Tianming Workshop similar to this? You mean to set up another one?" Tong Tianhai, who was eating, showed a puzzled expression.

Tong Tianming didn't understand why Tong Xiaojing would suddenly propose such an idea.

"Xiao Jing, now that you have accomplished something in your studies, it's okay to keep doing Tianming Workshop well. This workshop will be yours from now on, and you don't need to change the name. If you think it's inappropriate, I can change the name of the registrant of the workshop. Change it to yours."

Hearing Second Uncle's words, Tong Xiaojing hurriedly said, "Second Uncle, Tianming Workshop will never change its name."

"Then you are..." Tong Tianming was even more puzzled.

After hearing Tong Xiaojing's words, Tong Tianhai asked, "Girl, just tell me what's going on, this bend is a bit big, I can't react for a while!"

Tong Xiaojing looked at the father, mother, and second uncle who were present, and explained seriously: "You all misunderstood me. What I said about setting up a studio is to set up a studio for teaching."

"For teaching?"

Several people asked questions at the same time, becoming more and more puzzled by what Tong Xiaojing said.

Tong Xiaojing looked at the crowd and could only explain slowly.

She wants to challenge a new way of learning, she wants to set up a small studio, and use her spare time to let people who like and love purple pottery come to learn.

Learn and teach!
Really go for it.

After Tong Xiaojing's speech, everyone understood a little bit.

Tong Tianming was silent for a long time after hearing her words, and finally smiled after a long time.

"Young people have a lot of ideas, and their ancestors have come here for generations. It's time to change." Tong Tianming looked at Tong Xiaojing and said seriously: "Xiaojing, I agree with you for your new ideas. You set up a studio. Let's do it tomorrow, Second Uncle will help you and teach those dolls, and I can help too."

Hearing this, Tong Tianhai also spoke.

"Then I can also help. Although I'm not good at drawing blanks and filling them in, I'm good at sifting soil. I'm better than your second uncle in this skill. I don't look at the picture, just hold it in my hand." I can tell the difference between one and two by kneading it."

Hearing what Tong Tianhai said, Tong Tianming laughed: "See if you can do it. I didn't teach you to sieve ore soil."

"That means I'm better at learning than you?"

"You bastard!" Tong Tianming said, laughing even louder.

Seeing them, Li Yuan cut up a watermelon and brought it out.

"Stop making trouble, come and eat melon, this watermelon is very good."

"Alas..." Tong Tianhai and Tong Tianming responded in unison, and went to the table to eat watermelon together.

Tong Xiaojing couldn't help but feel happy when she saw the harmony of the family.

She began to look forward to everything that came next.

Early the next morning.

Tong Xiaojing and Tong Tianming had just arrived at Tianming Workshop, before the workshop door opened, they saw two people standing at the door of the workshop from a long distance away.

Seeing those two people, Tong Xiaojing's eyes fell on the figure with a particularly straight waist. She immediately understood that it was Li Meng who came, and the person beside him was her mother.

Li Meng stood there, looking to the side from time to time. When he saw Tong Xiaojing, he excitedly tugged at his mother beside him.

"Mom, Teacher Tong is here."

When the middle-aged woman heard the voice, she turned her head and looked in Tong Xiaojing's direction. She was a little surprised when she saw that it was Tong Xiaojing.

"Mom, don't be dumbfounded!" Li Meng stretched out her hand and grabbed her mother, leaned forward and said in a low voice, "Hurry up and take it out!"

When Li Meng's mother heard the child's call, she came back to her senses. Looking at Tong Xiaojing in front of her, she quickly reached out and took out a thick wad of money from a small cloth bag she carried. Mengmama's wad of money is more.

One hundred, fifty, twenty, ten, five...

"Hello, Teacher Tong, I'm Li Meng's mother. This child has had a big dream since he was a child. He also wants to be a master, learn to make purple pottery, and become a professional engraving master." Li Meng said to Tong Xiaojing seriously. That said, Li Meng has been a bit naughty since he was a child. His academic performance is not very good, and he is always scolded. The stones draw cows, flowers, and birds on the ground. Over time, the paintings become better and better, and they become more and more similar.

"Teacher Tong, this is 2000 yuan, which I have accumulated during this time." Li Meng's mother nervously handed the money in her hand to Tong Xiaojing: "Li Meng's father works in other provinces and only comes back once a year. I'm working on it, sometimes I'm too busy to take care of this kid, he wants to learn how to be pottery, I can only find a way to satisfy him."
