poppies in the attic

3.

Fang Ming's home is in a villa.It was a good time more than ten years ago, an era when the economy was taking off but housing prices were not.Unlike now, the economy is facing a landing that may be soft or hard, but housing prices are soaring, and they are flying again and again, flying higher and higher.

At that time, many people realized their dream of living in a villa.It is nothing new for a famous painter like Fang Ming to live in a villa.

The use of space in the villas at that time was not as tight and cramped as it is now.Fang Ming's studio is actually the living room on the first floor of the villa. Not to mention the spaciousness, the roof goes straight to the ceiling on the second floor, that is to say, it is twice the height of a normal floor.Therefore, the second floor is like the attic of the first floor.Behind the wooden railing, Wu Pengzhi could only see a small square table and a small leather chair.Further in, because of the angle and light, Wu Pengzhi felt that it was a darkness extending infinitely.

The voice of "I don't draw people" came from that darkness.

The word "Gone with the Wind" is also not accurate, the voice is not ethereal, but clear and crisp.

Fang Ming smiled at Wu Pengzhi with a good temper.ease your embarrassment.It seemed that Fang Ming was used to this kind of answer.

It is not surprising that a painter calls his wife "dear" although it is disgusting. Even if he calls his wife in the weird movie performance language darling, Wu Pengzhi is not surprised.Isn't that what artists do?

But the sentence "I don't draw people." The amount of information is quite large.First of all, that woman is also a painter.Even if you are not a painter, you are still a painter.Then, she was very tugging, her tone was not like the tone of admiration and submissiveness that is often seen for successful men.In the end, she is very arrogant. This sentence not only expresses contempt for this little model, but even contains contempt for people.It implies that people are not worthy of her painting at all.And the last point, Wu Pengzhi suddenly felt safe.It turns out that it is not a state of being alone.There are people above us.

In Wu Pengzhi's memory, these thoughts were all generated by himself at that time.However, in fact, only the first and the last one were Wu Pengzhi's thoughts at the time, and the middle two were all added to this memory by her later.

Wu Pengzhi forgave the woman's arrogance after putting on her own clothes and getting the money to leave the villa.

If the first sentence "I don't draw people" hurt Wu Pengzhi's self-esteem a little bit, then the second time the damage was escalated.

The second sentence was, "You painted her beautifully."

Beautiful women can't listen to others saying that they are not beautiful, and of course unbeautiful women can't listen to this sentence even more.

Unbeautiful women are angry because they feel that others have hurt themselves by telling the truth, and that others are rude.

Beautiful women are angry because they feel that others have hurt themselves by telling lies, and it is because others are jealous of their beauty.

What Wu Pengzhi was very upset about was that when this woman said this, she had such scrutinizing and critical eyes, that half-smile lips, and the woman's own beauty.

Wu Pengzhi has no imagination for female painters at all, she has never thought about this matter.So when this woman appeared in front of Wu Pengzhi, she stared blankly at her in anger and shock.

"Xiao Jin, come down and look at my paintings." Fang Ming immediately invited the woman down to look at the paintings again after hearing footsteps on the attic.

"Honey" is called "Xiao Jin" this time.

This time, the woman did not refuse outright, but appeared at the railing of the attic, overlooking Fang Ming's studio, and Wu Pengzhi.

Wu Pengzhi turned his back to the attic this time, so he couldn't see anything.I could only prick up my ears to listen to the sound of footsteps, the sound of slippers hitting the wooden stairs.

The woman named "Xiao Jin", wearing slippers and nightgown, carrying a cup of coffee, Shi Shiran walked down.

Wu Pengzhi glanced at it, and his thoughts became active.

First of all, the nightgown that the woman was wearing was the same dark gray color as my royal blue nightgown, so it was obvious that I was wearing this woman's old clothes, not work clothes.

And then, this woman just woke up?It's already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

Wu Pengzhi has been wondering why Fang Ming always makes appointments in the afternoon?According to Wu Pengzhi's own biological clock, either in the morning or at night, he is most active in spirit and thinking.Who do we hear about in the afternoon hours?

It's no wonder that Wu Pengzhi often feels that Fang Ming's painting is not in the mood at all.He stops and draws, calls for a while, takes pictures for a while, and draws a few more strokes for a while.And then constantly change the pose of the model.

Fang Ming himself muttered to Wu Pengzhi lightly, meaning that he hadn't painted figures for some years.

Of course Wu Pengzhi understood, if he was at his peak, why would he still use an unknown student like himself, he must be a famous model.

Speaking of this woman, did she just wake up?Feeling your own afternoon time is equivalent to someone else's morning.So it seems that there is nothing wrong with people's biological clock.

The woman walked past Wu Pengzhi without pausing, but her eyes never left Wu Pengzhi's eyes. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at her.

Walked all the way to Fang Ming's painting, and said, "You made her beautiful."
