Chapter 33 Visit
Qiu Ling was at the side, but the more she watched, the more surprised she became. Is there anything in this world that Miss Biao can't do?
The knowledge and tolerance of the little girl in front of her has gradually exceeded her imagination, Qiu Ling can't help but secretly rejoice in her heart for her choice, sometimes life should be such a gamble!
At this time, Mrs. Du and Du Bo were passing by the garden, and they couldn't help but stop and watch for a while when they heard the children playing and laughing in the garden.

"Why don't you see Huai Su?"

Old Mrs. Du stroked his long beard. Not only did the long talk with his two sons last night not wear down his energy, but today he still looks hale and hearty, with a flushed face. Just like a birthday star.

Du Boyan glanced around, then suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed behind the flower stand, "It seems to be there, I don't know what I'm busy with, it looks quite serious..."

"Go, go and see!"

With a thought, Mrs. Du took the lead and walked lightly towards Xiao Huaisu's side.

He knew that this little granddaughter was a bit independent. On the first day of the new year, other children were having fun, but she didn't know what she was busy with. How could she not make people feel curious?

The closer they got to the flower platform, the lighter their footsteps.

Xiao Huaisu was so focused on painting that he didn't notice it, but Qiu Ling sensitively sensed that someone was approaching, and when she looked back, she almost lost her sense of shock.

Standing behind her was the usually unsmiling old man Du, and the fourth master Du Boyan with a serious expression.

Qiu Ling was shocked, and hurriedly got up to salute, "I have seen the old master, I have seen the fourth master!"

Xiao Huaisu flicked his wrist, thinking in his heart that something was wrong, and before he could erase the painting on the snow, Mrs. Du's majestic and loving voice sounded, "Huaisu, what are you painting?"

Xu was squatting for too long, Xiao Huaisu felt dizzy just as she was about to get up, but fortunately Du Boyan strode to support her, and said with concern, "Slow down, why panic!"

Xiao Huaisu rubbed his hands in embarrassment, turned around with a blushing face, and greeted Mrs. Du and Du Boyan in turn.

Old Mrs. Du gave a "hmm", walked up to her, glanced at the painting on the snow, then at the place where the children were playing, stroked his long beard and remained silent.

The painting looks pretty good, but it is a child's graffiti, but judging by Xiao Huaisu's age, it is already extremely talented to be able to draw such a look.

Old Mrs. Du affirmed in his heart, and looked at Xiao Huaisu with more thoughtful eyes.

On the contrary, Du Boyan smiled and said: "I didn't expect Huai Su to be interested in painting..." He glanced at Mrs. Du's face again, his heart moved, he only patted Xiao Huaisu on the shoulder, and said in a warm voice: "Your grandfather is our Great Zhou. Master of calligraphy and painting, if you can get half of his true biography, you will definitely benefit from it in the future!"

"what?"

Xiao Huaisu raised his head in amazement, faced Old Master Du's burning eyes, and swallowed hard, "So my grandfather is so powerful?!" He was just like her former grandfather.

However, the old man in front of him obviously has a bit of the majesty of a long-time high-ranking person, but it is different from his grandfather's elegant and graceful like a wild crane.

Xiao Huaisu's thoughts changed a lot.

It's not that she didn't like painting in the past, but she couldn't devote so much energy to her homework. Now that she is free, she doesn't have to worry about food, clothing, housing, and transportation. She really has time to calm down and study.

Old Master Du cleared his throat, and the corners of his lips slowly curled up, "Do you want to learn from Huai Su?"

"miss you!"

Xiao Huaisu nodded, his eyes were as bright as stars, but he hesitated after thinking about it, he lowered his head and shook his fingers, "But grandfather is so busy..."

"There is always time to teach you!"

Old Master Du chuckled, and stroked his long beard habitually, "You are about to be four years old now. Sister Yu was already enlightened when she was four years old. Since I will teach you how to draw, let me teach you how to read as well!"

This is the first person among the grandchildren of the Du family to be taught by Mrs. Du himself. Du Boyan smiled and gave Xiao Huaisu a nudge, and gave her a wink, "Huaisu, why don't you thank your grandfather, your grandfather is busy. I can still find time to teach you, which is something no one else can ask for!"

Xiao Huaisu reacted naturally, turned around and was about to bow down to Mrs. Du, but the old man held him in his arms with a slight lift. The grandfather and grandson looked at each other with big eyes and smiled knowingly.

Qiu Ling looked at it in a daze.

Old Mrs. Du doesn't like to laugh normally, but this is for Miss Biao... and Mrs. Du loves and cares for her, so it seems that Ms. Biao's future will be bright.

For a period of time after the year, Mrs. Du had a rare long vacation. Perhaps the emperor also understood the pain of his daughter's loss, so he didn't have to go to court for more than half a month.

After Xiao Huaisu had breakfast in Mrs. Du's house every day, he went to Mrs. Du's study outside to learn painting and calligraphy. For two full hours, he never missed a beat, and never complained.

Old Mrs. Du nodded secretly when he saw it. Any delicate girl at this age probably wouldn't have the perseverance of Xiao Huaisu.

Du Yanyun is already considered intelligent, but Mrs. Du never thought of teaching it personally, except for Xiao Huaisu...

Although it was because of Du Boshu's relationship that he took more care of her, but after all, this little girl was a little special.

Fortunately, Xiao Huaisu was originally smart, and his subordinates also had some basic skills. He learned it quickly and made rapid progress. Although Mrs. Du didn't praise her, the smile on his lips seemed to increase a lot. Everyone can see it. of.

Old Mrs. Du put down the teacup in his hand, "Okay, Huai Su, let's rest!"

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, this girl studied hard and practiced hard every day, and the skin between the fingers holding the brush was worn out, and now a thin layer of callus has formed.

Even Mrs. Du felt pity in her eyes. She wanted to say something several times, but she swallowed her words under the focused gaze of her little granddaughter.

If you can't cut a jade, you can't make a weapon. Now that Xiao Huaisu has this perseverance and persistence, they naturally can't hold her back.

Xiao Huaisu responded, and traced the last big character squarely, then put down the pen, a thin layer of sweat was already breaking out on his forehead.

Qiu Ling hurried forward and handed over the handkerchief.

Xiao Huaisu took the handkerchief and lightly touched his forehead, then stood up and saluted Old Master Du, "Grandfather, then Huai Su will go back."

Learning painting and calligraphy in the morning, taking a nap with Mrs. Du after lunch, and reciting sutras with Mrs. Du in the afternoon, the day is full of time.

Old Master Du nodded in satisfaction, "Go, come back tomorrow!"
