Jinghua Tianjiao

Chapter 316 Facial Color Science

I really didn't expect Mr. Liu to say that. Xiufen didn't object to the title of "granddaughter-in-law". Instead, she said directly, "Yes, I'm here to see you, Dad."

"Grandpa, you haven't eaten yet, hurry up and try Juan'er's cooking." Liu Tian hurriedly put the lunch box on the table and covered it casually, "It's still hot."

Du Juan watched with fear as Mr. Liu took a bite. The old man chewed and swallowed carefully for a long time. Du Juan was worried that the old man he cooked would not be used to it, so she whispered to Liu Tian, ​​"Am I making something that grandpa cannot get used to?"

"No way." When the old man came, even Liu Tian was confused.
"It's quite delicious. My grandson's wife's cooking is really good." Mr. Liu praised, and both Liu Tian and Du Juan breathed a sigh of relief.

Du Juan was even more confident, "Grandpa, if you want to eat from now on, I can make it for you at any time."

"Okay, okay..." Mr. Liu did not refuse. He looked at Du Juan and Liu Tian happily and nodded with satisfaction.

Xiufen became embarrassed and said, "Juan'er, thank you this time for caring about my Xiaotian, and thank you for cooking for me. Your studio is so busy, and it takes up your time."

"It's okay, Auntie, I just made it with my help." Du Juan became modest.

Liu Tian looked at Du Juan with admiration. The smile in his eyes contained several layers of smiles. Xiufen could see clearly that his son really had this girl in his heart.She could guess what they were thinking and did nothing to stop them.

"You guys should go back early in a while. Doesn't Juan'er still have to go to work? Xiaotian, please send Juan'er back." Aunt Xiufen asked.
Liu Tian responded, "Don't worry, Mom."

On the way back, Du Juan sat in the passenger seat and remained silent. When she saw Mr. Liu just now, she actually felt quite uncomfortable. She didn't expect that Mr. Liu was even more haggard than the last time they met.Liu Tian looked at her and knew what she was thinking, "Juan'er, don't think too much, grandpa will be fine."

Du Juan nodded gently, looked at Liu Tian and sighed, "Well, I really hope grandpa can remember today forever. I don't want him to forget everything."

"The wish is good, but no one knows what will happen next." Liu Tian has seen his grandfather forgetful. "When he forgets something, it takes a long time to remember something. He may remember you today, but he may remember you tomorrow. I forgot about it. Even if you say it repeatedly in front of him, he won't remember it. I didn't know that grandpa was so seriously ill before, but now, I just want to be with him. "

Alzheimer's disease is just that, and there's no cure for it.Du Juan knew Liu Tian's mood. What he needed more at this time was his family, and she thought she would.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Liu Tian jumped out of this strange mood. He was afraid that Du Juan would be sad, so he changed the topic, "Now the work on the Peking Opera series of silk figures has been started. Tomorrow I will talk to the hospital Say hello too. Our teacher Bai over there will come over and give you lessons. If the silk man wants to add elements of Peking opera, you must thoroughly understand every detail of Peking opera." Du Juan is still very good when it comes to work. What's interesting is that he's in a really good mood?Watching Liu Tian talk freely, Du Juan said, "I remember the last time Teacher Bai taught us, we learned a lot. I'm still thinking, it would be great if he could teach us again."

"Yes, we talked about it in general last time. After this time, Teacher Bai wants to see how well you understand Peking Opera facial makeup. After all, it is meant to be painted on the face of a silk man." Liu Tian said He asked casually, "Amuna in your studio has completely withdrawn her heart now?"

Du Juan nodded, "Don't worry, she's back."

"That's good. We have all seen her painting skills, but the Peking Opera facial makeup is more detailed, with sharp brushstrokes and rich colors. It depends on how she handles it. I'm afraid she will have to practice a few more times." Liu Tian said
"That's for sure. Teacher Bai will have to work hard then." Liu Tian had arranged everything, but Du Juan still hoped that he could come with him, "Um...can you come over tomorrow?"

I don't know when, Du Juan has already regarded herself as the backbone.Seeing Du Juan's sincere question, Liu Tian agreed, "Okay, I'll go there with Teacher Bai tomorrow morning."

A smile appeared on Du Juan's lips, as if a child's wish had just come true.

Du Juan believed what Liu Tian said, and as expected, he brought Teacher Bai here early the next morning.Today is the first time for Amuna to return to her position as a painter at Jinghuafang since the last "infringement" incident. It is also the first time that she uses a pen to draw lifelike Peking Opera facial makeup on silk.As before, she still gets nervous when outsiders are around.

But the nervous one was also fascinated. When the outline pen drew the rough shape of the Peking Opera mask on the silk, Teacher Bai, Liu Tian and Du Juan were already quietly standing beside her.Gesang kept saying hello to Amuna, but Amuna remained indifferent.She finished the painting of the face on the first piece of silk while holding her breath during the whole process. Amuna looked at it again and again. She was not very satisfied with the work in front of her. When she was about to pick up another piece of silk, Teacher Bai stopped her. , "Wait a minute, girl, you can't throw this away."

"Sister Juan..." Amuna finally came back to her senses and hurriedly greeted Teacher Bai and Liu Tian, ​​"Hello, teacher, I'm sorry I wasn't looking."

Teacher Bai picked up the piece of silk that Amuna had just painted and looked at it carefully, "Actually, there is no big problem, it's just a matter of attitude. I remember telling you last time that the most important thing about Peking Opera facial makeup is the attitude, and these The expression is still reflected in the skin color. For example, red represents loyalty, courage and integrity; white represents viciousness and insidiousness; green represents a bad connotation in our public perception, but in Peking Opera facial makeup, it represents Of course, there are many examples like this. There is also a book in the courtyard specifically about Peking Opera facial makeup. Let Xiaotian bring it to you later. This girl's painting is okay, but there are still some problems in the use of colors. It should be noted that in the Peking Opera series of silk figures, there is no completely fixed way of facial makeup, it is an expression of the mentality of all characters."

"So that's it. I said no matter how much I painted, I still wasn't very satisfied. It was still a matter of color." Amuna said.

"Don't worry about painting. What you are making now is a silk figure. You won't be too strict about the facial makeup. You can be more liberal." Teacher Bai said, and then asked Du Juan, "Teacher Du, what are you doing for the silk figure?" How is he doing? The courtyard also wants to see."

When it comes to accessories, Du Juan actually doesn’t do much.Du Juan was not very familiar with the costumes of the Peking Opera silk figures, so she made a few of them just like cats and tigers. Now when Teacher Bai comes here, it’s like checking homework. No matter what the finished product is, she will show it first.
