Running with the ball in the lean years, the evil mother-in-law and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 171 Family Portrait

It was said to be raining, but when I woke up early the next morning, it started to rain lightly.

Fortunately, it started to rain last night, and the villagers have almost recovered all the wheat that should be harvested. Everyone put their wheat under the eaves at night so that it would not get caught in the rain.

However, everyone had just sown the rice seeds to raise seedlings, so the water in the rice fields should not accumulate too deep. Early in the morning, the villagers put on handmade raincoats and poured water into the rice fields.

To divert excess water out of the rice field, just dig an opening in the rice field.

The water in the rice fields will flow out along the water mouth, then flow into the small ditch, and then flow down into the river through the small ditch.

Bai Taotao stood in the open space at the door of her workshop, looking at the busy figures of the villagers. At this time, she really wanted to take out a camera and take pictures of these scenes.

But she still didn't dare to take out the camera, in case it was discovered. After all, this thing was still too advanced.

But she could draw it herself.

Although she is not a great painter, she loves painting in this world. If she had not joined the army by accident, she would have continued to learn painting in this world.

She pretended to go back to the house, and when she came out, she took pens, paper, paints and a large wooden board.

When everything was ready, Bai Taotao began to draw.

There are villagers in the farmland who are bending over to check the germination of rice seeds.

There are villagers washing their hands and feet in the creek.

There are also villagers standing on the field ridge chatting.

Some villagers stood beside the wheat fields that were not yet fully ripe, looking at their own wheat fields in a daze.

There are children catching fish in the creek.

The green and yellow wheat fields are very pleasant.

As she was drawing, Bai Taotao was fascinated by the painting, and suddenly there were many figures standing behind her without even knowing it.

After he finished the last stroke of the pen, Bai Zhengwen behind him said: "Auntie, your painting is too pretty, isn't it? Just like what grandpa said, what is the sound of that word?"

Bai Chuan added: "It's called lifelike."

Bai Zhengwen: "Yes, yes, lifelike. The paintings painted by my aunt are lifelike, so beautiful."

Bai Chuan: "I didn't know that my little sister had the ability to draw. But I've seen you draw on the ground before, but compared to now, your drawings are better than Mr. Hua's drawings."

Bai Dashan: "I have seen colors in life and fabrics in my life. This is the first time I have seen colors in paintings. But the paintings Tao painted with these colorful colors are indeed... very good."

Bai Dashan was at a loss for words and didn't know what words to use to describe his daughter's painting.

Bai Taotao explained with a smile: "I used to be poor, so I could only paint on the ground. Now that I have the conditions, I see the colors in life and wonder why I can't bring these colors into paintings? Look, don't you just paint them?" Even if the painting skills are not good, it still looks good. After all, the nose and the eyes can be clearly distinguished, and the reason why it looks good is because it has color and can be distinguished. If I had to paint it with black ink, it would be difficult to explain. ”

Each painting has its own color. With her skill as a painter, it is estimated that she can only see the outline. Where are the wheat fields and where are the rice fields, they are all the same color.

After hearing Bai Taotao's explanation, everyone in the family nodded in agreement.

"That's true."

"Auntie, then you can draw one for us." Bai Zhengqi suddenly said.

Bai Taotao heard this and said, "This seems to be possible. I'll draw you in, and then I'll draw myself, the eldest brother, the third brother, and Youyi. This will be a family portrait. The whole family is neatly arranged. How nice.”

Take action when you say action.

Then Bai Taotao put on a large piece of white paper and began to prepare to draw a family portrait. However, the position must be set before painting so that the next four people can be added at any time.

It is not easy to draw a family portrait. Firstly, there is a large population, and secondly, it is not as easy as painting a landscape painting.

By the time the painting arrived at noon, all the workers were off work and ready to have lunch. Bai Taotao hadn't finished painting yet.

Many workers came over to look at it. It didn't matter if they didn't look at it. They were very nervous when they saw Bai Taotao.

"Daughter-in-law Youyi, what are you doing?" Chen Youjin asked curiously.

"My aunt is drawing a family portrait for us." Bai Zhengqi answered first.

"Family photo." The workers were very curious.

This was the first time they had ever heard of drawing a family portrait.

Chen Youzhou looked at the family portrait painted by Bai Taotao and praised: "Youyi's wife didn't expect to draw a family portrait. The painting is so beautiful. You see, the paintings by brothers Zhengqi and Zhengwen are just like the real ones. And Uncle Bai and the others , but why do Uncle Bai and the others only have heads?”

Bai Taotao smiled and said, "Isn't the body still being painted?"

When Chen Youzhou heard this, he said sheepishly: "Sorry, sorry, I didn't see it, hahaha~~ Mainly, we people don't understand."

"Okay, okay, you go on painting then. We'll go back to have lunch first. After lunch, we can continue working." After saying this, Chen Youzhou left with the villagers.

Some of the other workers bought steamed buns and were eating them. While they were eating, they were watching around and praising them all the time.

"Youyi's daughter-in-law is really capable. She knows how to do business, cook, and study double-cropping rice. Now she can also paint and draw family portraits."

"That's right, I heard that she can also do some boxing and kicking."

"There is a general in the family, so it is not unusual for him to be able to do some martial arts. Or this is painting. Not everyone can paint."

"I heard that the painter in the yamen paid several taels of silver for each painting!"

"A few taels of silver are nothing. Wife-in-law Youyi is not someone who needs those few taels of silver."

"I'm not saying that Youyi's wife should go to the Yamen to be a painter."

…………

The workers chatted lively with each other.

Because the painting was not finished, Bai Taotao and the others could only continue until the painting was finished before leaving for lunch.

But now there are only two bodies left to be completed, Bai Dashan and Bai Chuan, and they will be almost finished in half an hour.

The workers continued to work in the workshop after lunch, while Bai Taotao continued to paint her paintings.

Finally, the painting is almost complete.

"Okay, the painting is done, you can all move." Bai Taotao said after putting away her pen. After saying that, she quickly stood up and moved around. She had a sore back and back from the painting this morning.

In fact, it is not easy for a family to stand as a template.

"Fortunately, you women all sit down, otherwise I would be exhausted from standing here all morning. It feels much more tiring than doing farm work for a day." Bai Chuan said while hammering his legs.

Wang Xiaohua agreed: "No, it's not much better if we sit down, and our buttocks hurt. Fortunately, the two little guys have drawn them first and can move. If they have to squat for a long time, they will probably stop doing it. ”

"Look, take a look at the painting that little sister drew for us." Xu Daya said hurriedly after relieving the pain in his body.

Then the whole family gathered around the painting painted by Baitaotao.
