Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner
Vol 2 Chapter 209: "Praying Hands"
"Jason, my mother will tell you the story behind the "Praying Hands". Hundreds of years ago, there was a famous painter Dürer in Germany in Europe. His family was very poor when he was a child, but he and his brother They are all very smart and talented in painting, but there is only one child at home to learn painting, so the father let the two children toss a coin to make a decision, and finally Dürer got the opportunity to study painting at the Nuremberg Academy of Arts, And his brother can only go to the mine to do absenteeism to support his family and his younger brother who is studying painting.
When Dürer became a great painter and came back to see his brother, he found that his hands that were once slender and slender and most suitable for holding a paintbrush had become rough and protruding due to mining. Because he was moved by his brother's efforts, he painted it. The famous "Praying Hands"..."
While listening to Heidi tell this kind of "chicken soup story" to the child, Tangning forcibly suppressed her desire to complain, and when the two were alone, she said to Heidi, "Darling, I will tell the child this kind of story later. Be sure to do a little research before celebrity stories, and when Jason grows up a bit, be sure to tell him the truth about this 'Praying Hands' so he doesn't get laughed at when he goes out!"
"The truth? Didn't I just tell the story behind "Praying Hands"?" Heidi asked inexplicably.
"Of course not. Dürer's family is actually very rich. His father is a famous goldsmith in Nuremberg. Do you think the goldsmith's family can't afford schooling for their children? And Albrecht-Dürer is not the only one. One brother, they are three brothers, he and Hans - Dürer are both painters, the other Engre - Dürer has inherited his father's business and is also a goldsmith, so the family conditions are very good.
In addition, the Nuremberg Academy of Arts was established in 1662, and Dürer had died in 1528. How could he have studied painting there? "Tangning explained angrily.
In fact, some of these fake celebrity inspirational chicken soup stories, such as Da Vinci's eggs and Einstein's test, are all like this. It's just that things like "Praying Hands" can be included in Baidu Encyclopedia. speechless...
Heidi knew that her knowledge of fine arts was definitely not as good as her husband's, and the establishment of the Nuremberg Academy of Arts and the time of Dürer's death should be well-researched and conclusive data, so the husband did not need to deceive himself with this, so some He said embarrassedly, "It's my fault, I'll explain it to Jason when I get a chance!"
Then he accused Tangning, "You know so much, why don't you usually tell Jason stories?"
"Isn't that why I didn't talk? Didn't you let me talk?" Tangning retorted.
Heidi also retorted: "That's because what you said is not suitable for children!"
"But I really don't know how to tell stories suitable for children!" Tangning shrugged.
Heidi thought it was true, so she rolled his eyes at him and got up and left.
Tangning was about to catch up and explain, when Marlene came over and reported that it was Bryan.
Actually, Tangning and Brien didn't see each other at all, but recently because of Lauren's affairs, he was a little afraid to show up in front of Brien, but everyone came, so he couldn't be seen.
After a few words of greetings, Brian looked around and saw that there was no one left, then leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Tony, how's the investigation going?"
Tangning hesitated for a while, then replied, "Uh, I haven't found anything yet!"
Unexpectedly, Brian was still helping him find a reason: "It's not your fault, because Lauren has been staying at home honestly these days and never went out! But I believe she will soon have something to do with it. action!"
"Oh? Why?" Tangning asked curiously.
"Because I'm going to go to London for a month, how can she hold back for such a long time?" Brian explained.
"You made a special trip to London for this matter?" Tangning asked in surprise.
Brian shook his head and replied, "Of course it's impossible. I have important things to do in London, but isn't it convenient for you to investigate, so I'll come and tell you."
"Oh, that's it, don't worry, I'll be careful during this time!" Tangning nodded in agreement.
"Then please, I won't talk to you anymore, I have to go back and prepare for going out!" After that, Brian left.
Two days later, as soon as Brian left, Lauren asked Tangning to meet. After some lingering, Lauren asked, "Tony, do you know why Brian went to London this time?"
Tangning shook her head and replied, "I don't know, he just told me he was going to do a very important thing. What is it?"
"I don't know either, otherwise why would I ask you!" Lauren replied angrily.
"It seems that he really doesn't trust you anymore. He doesn't even tell you about such important things!" Tangning sighed.
"So I want to divorce him!" Lauren said.
"You two, one doesn't trust each other and the other wants to get a divorce. Just wait for Brian to come back and I'll persuade him to divorce you!" Tangning suggested.
"Let's talk when he gets back!" Then Lauren asked, changing the subject: "By the way, how about I asked you to send someone to Memphis to investigate Margaret?"
"Actually, I was just about to tell you about this. Yesterday, when old Rob came back from Memphis, he took the portrait of Miss Alexander I drew and asked a lot of people in the ballroom. They all said that he looked very much like Miss Margaret, but Because the temperament and clothes are so different, they dare not confirm..."
Before Tangning could finish her sentence~www.readwn.com~ Lauren interrupted, "Why don't you just go to Margaret? Why are you asking those people in the ballroom?"
"Because Margaret has been missing for a long time, she can't be found at all!" Tangning explained.
"Margaret disappeared? How long has she been missing?" Lauren asked.
Tangning recalled for a moment, and then replied, "Rob has been talking about it for at least a year!"
Then he sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that I didn't find a photo or portrait of this Miss Margaret, otherwise it would be useful." (In that era, neither photos nor portraits were available to ordinary people.)
PS: Yesterday, I watched an early film of Nie Yuan's "Dark Labyrinth". To be honest, this is really a rare fine suspense film in China, especially the tunnel section one hour ago. If you dig deeper and enrich it, you can definitely It's an independent film, of course, it's very difficult to review... (In addition, I think the tunnel part is a good doomsday theme, especially suitable for death anglers to write, I have more than enough energy, so I won't waste it something)
