Be good, bad boy

Chapter 13 Growth

The worried look on his face made my nose sour. There are still people who remember me and miss me.It has not been forgotten by the world.

I didn't speak, my eyes sparkled.I just huddled in the corner of the bed and listened to You Shao talking behind my unconscious back.

He was as quiet as I was, looking at his tired face, red eyes, and the gray-green shirt that I was wearing until now, I felt so sour, I really didn't like it.

I have never trusted him, and even once could not understand him and scolded him.But he?????.

well!The world really shows off people, some people you don't believe will make you cry, and those you trust will also make you cry, but one is moved and the other is heartbroken.

After staying in the hospital for a few days, the doctor said that I could be discharged from the hospital, so I went home slowly with him, and took me to the gallery or hall that used to be annoying for me to look at, but now it is a kind of safe , a feeling that makes me feel at ease.

The moment I walked in, I quietly made a promise in my heart: "Don't ask for anything else, live a good life and forget everything."

Maybe it's because I've gone through those things that I now know that it's best to just live in a down-to-earth way.

I also began to recover slowly. According to the current buzzword, it should be called "resurrection with full blood", and I started to learn to paint by accident.You Shao also felt that I didn't understand the 180-degree turn.But I didn't explain anything and wanted to be quiet.

Youshao once said "live in the moment" which moved me, who has never heard the classic sentence, for half a month.

He was right when he said, “Live in the moment.”

"From tomorrow to the joint entrance examination (joint examination: people who study art in the city take the exam at the same time in the same area, the same specifications as the college entrance examination.) It is less than 4 months, but fortunately, art is something that can be Instant success." Watching Shao struggling on tiptoe to hang the countdown sign in the most conspicuous position.

"However, it depends on your hard work and talent." He said to me after hanging up.

"Talent? If I have this talent, I will be beautiful? What else should I draw?" I said holding a pencil I sharpened myself.

"Talent is just learning a little faster than others. If you don't learn it, you will still be the same as ordinary people."

"If only I had talent"

"Can we stop talking about this?"

After struggling for a while, You Shao still reluctantly gave up the room where the human specimens were once horrifying to me, and gave it to me as a studio.To be honest: Except for that place, I feel more at ease. It is said that he vacated all those things in the next room on the third floor, saying that I would move them back after the exam.

In the past few days, Shao Huan woke me up in the morning, and I started to draw the 30 sketches he assigned me at night. It's okay, but he dismissively said some technical terms that I couldn't understand, "The lines are too thick, there is no sense of smoothness, and the whole is too dead????"

It is said that people who can fulfill the following three conditions should not be messed with

1. Don’t take pictures while eating

2. It will not be torn immediately when receiving the courier

3. People who can get up immediately with a roar in winter

He also thought of a way for me to get lazy, that is, take a cold shower when I wake up in the morning, and the icy water splashes on my warm skin, so that I don't feel sleepy immediately, refresh my mind, and feel more energetic.It is said that this is how he was admitted to the Central Academy of Fine Arts.

Later, using this method, he didn't wake me up again.

This incident reminds me now, and I smiled and said to others: Maybe I just can't mess with people.

You Shao also put down the work at hand, and began to accompany me to paint day and night. I can see his strong figure walking around in front of my eyes almost every day. A few days ago, he was still wearing formal clothes, but later he was Wearing slippers, a vest, and beach shorts, he stared at me like a thief with his hands crossed on his back, day and night.

If you have to ask me when I can’t see him, I can only lift my sore neck and say, “Maybe I won’t be able to see him when I sleep with my eyes closed. But since the night he pretended to be a ghost to scare me, I started Ask him to share a room with me.

I tried to forget about everything and concentrate on learning to draw.This month, I almost only walked a short distance of 100 meters, from the bedroom to the studio, and occasionally went to the bathroom.I don't know when he went out to buy the breakfast, lunch and dinner. When I returned to the bedroom, the food was already in front of my eyes, but I was satisfied with it, at least it was better than me at that time. You Shao He said: "I can really not worry about food and drink if I follow him." Now I have a deep understanding.

Unknowingly, in the past month, I got used to drawing and slowly felt a comfortable feeling on my wrist, not an awkward feeling, You Shao would just put down the newspaper and said calmly: "That's the result of your past few days. "In painting, I started to learn from him to copy some still-life fruits and some jars, and the paintings looked good. When I was glad that my paintings were okay, he bent down and stared at my body carefully with his thick belly. Looking at my painting and saying: "So-so and so on" made me very angry.

Competitive, I started to compare with him, and challenged him when I thought I was still good.After 2 months without touching a paintbrush for a long time, he gave me a big blow, painting a head portrait silently in 10 minutes.In minutes, he finished the painting almost casually, and my eyes didn't even close, leaving only surprised eyes and looking at his works with my nose almost stuck on the paper and surprised eyes.

"You know him?" I said, pointing to the portrait.

"I don't know," he said, wiping his hands.

"what?"

"Then how did you draw it?" I was puzzled

"Feeling!" he said, pointing to his heart.

"The sketch for the entrance exam is a one-and-a-half-hour silent drawing of a person's head." When he put down these words, I felt scared.Perhaps, I have begun to integrate into painting.

How can I do it in less than 2 months, looking at him who is extremely calm with restless heart, I feel a little suspenseful.

"Scared?" He said seeing my shocked expression.

"Who, who is afraid?" I quickly picked up the brush and drew a sketch.

"It's okay, enough time."

"Really?" I chuckled a little.

"Your sketching practice is not bad, and sketching has been good for the past two days. Drawing is difficult at the beginning and then becomes easy, but?"

"But what?"

"You are not yet exposed to color."

"Color? The exam also tests color?"

"This thing is difficult, but it is easy to learn it"

"Is this consolation for you?"

"should count"

"What should it be?"

??

Every day seems to be connected with the schedule, living a fulfilling and stressful life. The most annoying thing is that I can’t sleep well. I used to wrestle my fingers and count the poor rest time, which is only about 4~5 hours. Draw sketches Draw people's heads immediately after breakfast, silently draw people's heads in the afternoon, and silently draw sketches in the evening.

Although the mechanical life is boring, it brings me a kind of fulfillment and enthusiasm.I don't worry about worrying about the days when I'm full and don't have a next meal every day.Seeing him with me every day, I call him brothers and sisters after a long time.

That night, he made an exception and gave me a day off. He walked out of the city of Beijing, which he hadn't seen for more than two months, and said that he would take me out to drive "foreign meat".But it got me confused.

8pm

Walking into a well-decorated place, the orange warm lights shone on the two people under the table.

"What to eat? Order!" He flung the menu to me coolly.

"Then I'm not going to be polite?" He said and ordered some of the most expensive things one by one.

"Abalone soup? Just drink some soup. Order such an expensive one?"

He pointed to the receipt with wide eyes and said to me.I smiled and said nothing, he didn't know that I didn't even want to look at these so-called expensive things.

"What day is it today? Take me out to have some seafood?" I said while drinking a bowl of abalone soup worth more than 3000 yuan.

"Salary was just paid today."

"anything else?"

"Gone"

"Could it be someone's birthday? I hate this kind of people the most." I smashed my mouth and recalled the aftertaste on my tongue.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival"

After he finished speaking calmly, I slowly stopped talking, and smiled again after a while.

"I'm almost forgetting any festivals while I'm painting? Yes, yes, tell me about the rest of the festivals! I can remember it too." There is a faint feeling hidden in the seemingly laughing words. sad.

"It's been almost 30 years since I came to Beijing alone. Fortunately, you, who are considered friends, accompany me to celebrate this festival this year." You Shao smiled at me, and then drank a cup full of abalone soup. .

I looked into his moist eyes.Laughing, just to make him happy.

"Look at you, what does it mean to be a friend?" I ran to his side, picked up the glass and touched him. "From now on, you will be my brother, I will be your elder brother, and you will be my younger brother." I raised my head and drank the wine.

The burning feeling of the wine slowly flowing down my throat is really nostalgic.It's been a long time since I drank so happily.

"You and I are 20 years younger, how can we call you brothers?" He was also a little drunk.

"It doesn't matter, you will be my younger brother from now on. I will protect you from now on! Hehe" I was full of nonsense.

The food has been served, and we all poured 2 bottles of white wine.You Shao was overwhelmed with alcohol, and his rough and thick face suddenly turned red.Sweat slowly leaked from the skin exposed by the buttons of his jacket.

Looking at the lights of the restaurant shining on us, breathing out the alcohol, I slowly closed my eyes, enjoying the loneliness that only belonged to the two of us.

"Wake up." When I was drowsy, I was woken up.Shao pulled me and called out.

"What time is it?" He hurriedly picked up the clothes on the chair.

"10 points"

"Eat for 2 hours" I put on my clothes and said

"Aren't you drunk?" I looked at You Shao, who was alive and well, and said.

"Do you want to get me drunk with this little wine?" He paid the money and left, and when he left, he gave me a very unexpected teasing look.

"Pretend!" I whispered behind my back.

Walking at night in Beijing, listening to the full sound of engines on Chang'an Avenue, we are a little more familiar with each other.After walking for a while, she sat on a chair and looked at him.

"You Shao" I said loudly, because the traffic on the road was very loud.

"What?" He listened to the voice from Chang'an Avenue and responded loudly.

"You've made me feel comfortable these past few months, thank you!"

"Although I have never taught anyone, I know that learning to draw is boring. How can I be comfortable?" He said sideways

I stopped talking, and followed him slowly to Chang'an Avenue.

He said that although the sound of Chang'an Street is noisy, it is full of vitality. He liked to listen to the sound of Chang'an Street alone at night 20 years ago, but after 20 years, he brought someone to accompany him to feel it.Until now, I still like to stand alone on the edge of Chang'an Avenue and listen to the full sound of the engine from time to time??????
