Stunning Little Village Girl in Rebirth Space

Chapter 18 Practicing calligraphy with Wen Shixuan
Rong Xi's words about learning and practicing calligraphy are not just casually. Although she can understand characters, she can't write calligraphy at all.

In modern times, she also learned from others, but because she didn't have enough time and patience, and it was not very useful, this matter was left alone.

But it’s different now. She is not in modern times. She no longer uses fountain pens and signature pens, but brushes. Although she is in the country now, it doesn’t matter whether she can write or not, but she wants Wen Shixuan and the others to write. Those who live a good life, if they want to live a good life, they will inevitably leave Wenjia Village and go to a big place. If they can't write with a calligraphy brush, they will really be despised by others.

So, learn early.It was only then that Rongxi made such a thought.

Wen Shixuan was also very happy that Rongxi wanted to learn to write, and agreed without much thought.After all, he had asked Rongxi before if he wanted to learn to write from him, but Rongxi was always unwilling.Now that Rongxi took the initiative to ask him to learn from him, Wen Shixuan was naturally happy to hear it.

Wen Shixuan took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, put them on a small table in the room, and then waved to Rongxi, who obediently came to him.

"Girl Xi'er, these few things are indispensable to learn calligraphy." Wen Shixuan pointed to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and introduced them one by one to Rong Xi: "The most important thing is this brush. Xi'er, you know that this brush is What are there?"

Rong Xi thought for a while, "Lang Hao?"

"This is a kind." Wen Shixuan nodded, and then slowly said: "This wolf hair is made of weasel (weasel) hair. It is characterized by smoothness and elasticity. It is suitable for writing and painting, mainly for painting."

After a pause, Wen Shixuan went on to say: "There are many types of brushes, and the tips of the brushes are all processed with animal hair. Therefore, people often classify the brushes according to their elasticity. Generally, they are divided into hard brushes, soft brushes, and soft brushes. There are three kinds of brushes and brushes."

"The bristles of hard hair brushes are more elastic. The common ones are rabbit hair, wolf hair, deer hair, mouse hair, stone badger hair, mountain horse hair, pig bristle, etc. Soft hair brushes are less elastic and softer. Generally, sheep hair, It is made of soft cents such as chicken cents and fetal cents. The third type, "Jianhao", as the name suggests, means both. That is to say, the core is hard cents, and the surrounding is surrounded by soft cents. Between soft hair and purple hair. Generally, Zihao and Yanghao are made in different proportions, and there are also Jianhao pens made by combining Yanghao and Langhao, and there are also pig bristles added to Dayanghao bucket pens to enhance its elasticity. "

After finishing speaking, Wen Shixuan looked at Rongxi, and saw that she was listening seriously, with a smile on her face: "Although there are many of these three types of pens, there are only a few commonly used ones, so I will write them for you." Let’s talk about the common ones.”

"Yeah." Rong Xi nodded quickly, she is not a greedy person, there is no need to be too demanding of herself, she just needs to learn something that is useful now, and it doesn't have to be mastered, as long as it is enough. up.

"Yanghao brushes are made of goat hair, which is commonly used by most people. The brush pens are soft in nature, thick and moist at the tip, and suitable for writing cursive script."

"Zihao pen is a pen made of purple rabbit hair, hence the name Zihao pen. It is also called "Zi Shuang Hao". It is characterized by being soft and round, and if it is also gray, it is strong and strong."

"The mouse whisker pen is made from the whiskers of the house mouse. The strokes of the pen are pure, smooth and sharp, and the characters written are soft and firm."

"Bristle pens are made of pure pig bristles. There are white and black bristles, and there are also hemp-colored bristles. It is characterized by strong, hard, straight, single and independent, not hugging, and the nib is scattered."

"Jianhao brush is a brush made by mixing several kinds of fine hairs. It is usually called Jianhao brush. The characteristics vary according to the mixing ratio. It can be rigid or soft, or moderately rigid and soft, and it is cheap and labor-saving."

After introducing the brushes one by one, Wen Shixuan casually picked up a writing brush placed on the table and handed it to Rongxi: "Xi'er, let's see which one I mentioned above?"

Rong Xi took the pen, observed it carefully, and kept thinking about what Wen Shixuan said just now. After a while, he looked at Wen Shixuan with some uncertainty: "Is it Jianhao pen?"

"Miss Xi'er is really good at observation." Wen Shixuan nodded in satisfaction, "This is indeed a Jianhao brush. Just memorize the types and characteristics of the pen today, and I will tell you the rest later. Chewing too much."

"Yeah." Rong Xi nodded, she naturally understood this truth, even though the Great God of Time Traveling gave her a Baolian space that looked pretty fraudulent, but it was just giving her a space, nothing happened to her The ability of photographic memory, so she can only take it slowly at present.

After grinding the inkstone, Wen Shixuan took out a piece of straw paper and put it on the table, then said gently to Rongxi: "I will write a few words first, and you should pay attention to observe the characteristics of my writing."

"Okay." Rong Xi replied.

Then Wen Shixuan picked up a pen, dipped it in thick ink, and started writing on the straw paper in a smooth and smooth manner.

After finishing writing, Wen Shixuan looked at Rongxi, "Did Miss Xi'er find anything?"

Rong Xi rubbed his chin with his hands, "I think your posture is a little different when you write."

"Girl Xi'er has very good observation skills." Wen Shixuan nodded in satisfaction, and then asked her to come to her and explain to her in detail: "There is a saying in the past: 'There is no fixed method for writing, but it should be empty and wide.' There is nothing wrong with writing. A fixed method, as long as it is convenient for writing. If you are just starting to learn now, then I will teach you a more commonly used five-finger writing method."

"The so-called five-finger penholding method is to pinch the pen holder (at an appropriate height) with the belly of the thumb and index finger to ensure that the pen holder does not fall off; the middle finger rests on the outside of the pen under the index finger, which not only strengthens the power of the index finger to hold the pen, but also exerts the pen to the direction of the pen. The function of the inner hook; the carapace of the ring finger touches the inner side of the pen holder, which plays the role of pushing the pen outward; the little finger is attached to the lower part of the ring finger belly, assisting the ring finger to push the pen outward. When holding the pen, it should be as the predecessors said 'Let the palm be as empty as holding an egg', which makes it easier to use the pen. When learning books, you should often practice holding the pen, hooking it back, pushing it out and rotating the pen holder to practice drawing straight lines and arcs. The height of the pen and whether it hangs the wrist or the elbow depends on the writing It depends on the size of the letter. For small characters, hold it low and rest on the wrist;

After saying that, Wen Shixuan carefully taught Rongxi how to hold the pen. Although Rongxi felt that what Wen Shixuan said before was very mysterious and didn't quite understand it, but now that he practiced it, he understood a lot.

Time goes by the fastest when you are focused on doing something.Just when Rongxi felt something, a gentle voice came from outside, telling them to go eat.

So this matter will stop for the time being, after all, the Wu Zang Temple is the most important thing.

only……

Rong Xi looked at Wen Shixuan who was packing up his things, and raised his brows lightly. Her grandpa seemed to be not simple. His temperament and his conversation when teaching her were extraordinary. He didn't look like an ordinary scholar who failed...
