Fair Lady

Chapter 85 Breaking the Cocoon into a Butterfly

Early in the morning, Jin Xida told Shujie that he was going to go to the mountain. He came back very late last night, and Shujie and the others were already asleep.

Shujie thought for a while, and then said to Jin Xida: "Uncle Jin, if you just take a look around, we can just take Xiaoguai with you. If you are looking for something, it is best to let Yaoer communicate with Huohuo. Huohuo is very familiar with every inch of Jiuling Mountain, it can find out what is there and what is hidden, but it only listens to Yaoer."

Huohuo is a treasure-hunting fox, but it is really lazy. Except for the first time it took the initiative to find those good things for Shujie and Shuyao brothers and sisters as a meeting gift, Shuyao later asked Shuyao to make a request and promise to do it. Delicious and spirit-enhanced food, it will diligently search for things.Otherwise, every time I went to the mountain with Shujie, I would only care about playing with myself.Occasionally, Shujie couldn't find the way, so he had to negotiate conditions with him to lead the way.

"Oh?" Jin Xida's eyes lit up, Huo Huo still has this ability?This is great!It's better than letting dozens or hundreds of people search the mountain without making a fuss.He has also heard of "Treasure Hunting Fox". Could it be Huohuo?Originally, he just took a look today, hoping to find out some clues, and then let Hei Mo and the others search for key areas.But... if... Huo Huo can really find it... it will be too easy.

From Jin Xida's point of view, although Shuyao is young, she is extremely intelligent and sensible, and she is not worried that she will leak to others, so she finds Shuyao and takes Shujie and Shuyao into the study together.

After closing the door, Jin Xida took out an ivory board that seemed to be broken and only half of it was left, and said, "This is called ivory fluorene, and it was broken in half. The other half was hidden in Jiuling Mountain. I need to find it now." Come back. However, we know very little information, there is only one word for 'Shi', and we don't know whether it is 'Shi' or 'Ten'? Yaoer, this thing is very important, can you ask the Huohuo Gang to help me?"

"'Stone'? Stele? Stone Pavilion? Stone Cloud Peak? Shizhang Peak? Ten Mile Pavilion?...This range is too big!" Shujie searched for the information he knew in his head.

Jin Xida also had a bitter face: "Isn't it? I wanted to step on it today to see all the places with 'stone' and 'ten'."

Shuyao nodded in response: "Uncle Jin, give me this ivory fluorene. I'll tell Huohuo."

Shujie found Huohuo, Shuyao held Huohuo and looked at the ivory fluorene: "Huohuo, do you know this thing? Can you find it?" Huohuo glanced at it, showing disgust, "Zhi Zhi Zhi".Shujie now also understands Huo Huo's "language expression" very well, and said with a smile: "Uncle Jin, don't worry. Huo Huo knows where that thing is, but it should be a dirty place." Huo Huo is a fox with a cleanliness habit. Said oh, because of the dirty and messy boundary, I don't want to go.

Jin Xida was very excited: "Huohuo, if you find this thing, I'll find you whatever you want to eat."

"Zhi Zhi Zhi" Huo Huo gave Jin Xida a contemptuous look, and gritted his teeth.As if to say: This fox is not rare!

Jin Xida was stunned, but Shujie and Shuyao couldn't help laughing.

Shuyao said with a look of "cheap for you", "If you help Uncle Jin find the things, how about I give you a Namo Chrysanthemum?

Jin Xida asked curiously, "Huohuo likes to eat flowers?"

Huohuo glared at him again "Zhizhizhi", then flatteringly licked the back of Shuyao's hand.

Shuyao patted its little head lightly: "Don't get complacent too early! Only when you find something."

Huohuo proudly raised her pointed chin.

Shujie acted as an interpreter for Jin Xida who didn't know why: "It's no problem, Uncle Jin, Huo Huo will definitely find the other half because of that ink chrysanthemum. Just stop. Haha. But it doesn’t eat all kinds of flowers, it only eats rare and precious varieties.” It still needs to be strengthened.

Jin Xida petrified again.Is this still a fox?Uh, it should be a fox fairy!

But as long as he can find the half of ivory fluorene, he can also find many precious flowers for Huo Huo.

What's more, he was amazed a few days ago that the flowers in the summer house's garden, no matter what month they "should" bloom, are proudly blooming in the summer house.For example, the pot of black chrysanthemums in Xiao Yao'er's study should bloom in autumn, but it's the beginning of summer now.

Jin Xida and Shujie set off with Xiaoguai and Huohuo, and sent Shuwen to the school on the way.Shuyao also went to Xu's Mansion with Mother Liu.

Today is calligraphy and painting class, and Mrs. Luo asked the four of Shuyao to choose a target in the garden and draw it.

Nian'er doesn't like to draw flowers, she thinks that compared with the flowers drawn by Shuyao, the flowers drawn by herself have no feeling, so she chooses to draw the pavilion by the pond.

Bing'er has always been partial to peonies, so she naturally chooses the peonies in full bloom to paint, while Xiu'er chooses the lotus flowers that are just blooming.

Shuyao didn't want to "collide" with Bing'er, so she looked around the garden, sat down on a stone, stared at a corner of the garden for a long time, and only started to write when the other three were almost halfway through the painting.

Mrs. Luo has been paying attention to Shuyao, but no matter whether Shuyao is circling the garden or sitting on the stone in a daze, she doesn't interfere with her. This seven-year-old girl not only can talk, but also always speaks with her eyes. Can see something special.

The last time she asked four students to draw butterflies, the other three painted butterflies fluttering among the flowers or staying on the flowers, but Shuyao drew a colorful butterfly that just struggled out of its cocoon.Except for a green twig protruding obliquely, a milky white butterfly cocoon, and a colorful butterfly with wet wings, the whole picture is a piece of quiet white, giving people an ethereal and hidden shocking feeling.

The technique of that painting may not be so strong, but the artistic conception is very beautiful. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that it was made by a seven-year-old girl.

When Mrs. Luo asked the four of them to explain her paintings, Shuyao said that her mother Zhen Zirou once said when she was alive that it was this process of struggling when breaking out of the cocoon that made the wings of the butterfly strong and finally able to fly to the sky .

When Shuyao was speaking, Mrs. Luo could clearly feel the brilliance in her eyes, which was also an ethereal shock.

Mrs. Luo admired secretly. She heard that Zhen Zirou was an unusual woman, but she had no chance to meet her, but through what Shuyao said, she could almost picture in her mind a beautiful woman who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, with firm eyes .

Mrs. Luo collected the painting and inscribed four words beside it: Breaking out of a cocoon and becoming a butterfly.She believed that this youngest student would break out of her cocoon one day and become the most beautiful and proud butterfly.

The time given by Mrs. Luo was a stick of incense, and when the stick of incense was about to burn out, the three of Nian'er put away their pens one after another.Seeing that Shuyao was still immersed in painting, Nian'er gave her a worried look. Sister Yao'er was in a daze for some reason just now, but now she can't finish it on time. I don't know if Mrs. Luo will punish her.

Just as she was thinking, Shuyao let out a soft breath, closed her pen, raised her head, looked at her with clear eyes, and smiled at her, as if she knew her worry.

Lady Luo put four paintings side by side on the long table, and asked Shuyao and the others to look at them together.

What Nian'er painted is the distant view of the pavilion, which is better than the layout. A small corner of the pond, green shrubs, red pavilion, and white cobblestone path are very elegant. A magpie perched on the corner of the eaves adds to the elegance. There is a vitality.

Mrs. Luo nodded: "It's good to know how to learn from each other's strengths and highlight your own strengths!" Nian'er's paintings are not detailed enough, and a single object cannot withstand scrutiny, but she is very good at framing, making people focus on the overall feeling and " Forget" details.

Among the four items of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Xu Binger likes and is best at "painting". Her mother is also a talented woman who is good at both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially good at painting and embroidery. Binger began to learn painting from her mother when she was five years old and embroidery, so she is not convinced by Shuyao.

The peonies Binger painted today are magnificent and majestic. As a ten-year-old girl, she is already very good.

Luo Niangzi praised: "The painting has a gorgeous feeling of peonies, but we must pay attention to the depth of the color to make the flowers more 'live'."

The look and confidence in Binger's eyes dimmed a little when Mrs. Luo said "but". She had also seen peonies painted by Shuyao, and the sunlight cast on the petals seemed to be felt by people. She tried painting in secret. I couldn't draw that feeling many times, and I didn't want to put down my face to ask Shuyao for advice.She was really unconvinced, if Shuyao who walked out of Xitang Street could draw it, she would definitely be able to draw it too.

Xiu'er is good at playing the zither, but she is most afraid of calligraphy and painting.The lotus she painted, Mrs. Luo commented: "It's quite satisfactory, it can be seen that it is a lotus."

The eyes of the five masters and apprentices turned to the last painting. The green vines set off a few yellow small wild chrysanthemums, and there was a mottled flower shadow on the ground... The picture is simple and not gorgeous, but full of vigor and vitality. People looking at the painting can also feel that the small, inconspicuous flower is growing tenaciously and vigorously. As long as you pay attention, you can see the little wild chrysanthemum smiling and accepting the sunshine with its face up.

Luo Niangzi was once again shocked by the artistic conception of this painting. Last time, the "broken cocoon into a butterfly" and today's little wild chrysanthemum are all telling a kind of tough feeling, all through the seemingly insignificant, even weak The "little life" expresses the firmness and courage in the heart, but they all have an indifferent appearance.

Looking at Shuyao who pursed her lips slightly, Mrs. Luo had doubts in her eyes: this child's thoughts seem to have more content than ordinary adults.

Nian'er praised: "Every flower is so vivid in Sister Yao'er's brushwork! A wild flower can be painted so beautifully!...It's a pity, how good it is to paint peonies or lotus flowers, even if you have painted them before Yes, you can also draw roses or roses. The flowers are big and the colors are beautiful. What's so good about this little wild flower? If you didn't draw it, we wouldn't have noticed it.

Shuyao replied quietly: "Big flowers have the nobility of big flowers, and small flowers have the indifference of small flowers. Although the peony is gorgeous, the insignificant little chrysanthemum can also live out its beauty and strength." (To be continued.
