Chapter 645 (Six Hundred and Forty-Five) Painting Style
Ao Gong opened his eyes and said, "It's okay."
Tie Hongyan said: "You can continue to close your eyes and remember, and calm yourself down."
Ao Gong closed his eyes again.
After You Xiangming finished studying the ink, Ao Gong opened his eyes and started painting.
Although he had forced himself to be calm when he closed his eyes, when he started writing, he remembered that the picture was of the man who threatened him to sell blankets, and his heart was startled again, so the first stroke started to tremble.
Seeing the crooked handwriting on the paper, he felt a little more afraid, worried that he would be accused of not drawing well on purpose. His worries were right. Before he finished the first stroke, he heard You Xiangming's words.
"We paid you such a large sum of money, and I personally polished the ink for you. You painted like this as soon as you started. Is this really not intentional?" You Xiangming asked.
Tie Hongyan winked at You Xiangming, signaling him not to scare him again.
Ao Gong said: "That's not true!"
Tie Hongyan said to Ao Gong: "You draw your own, there is nothing to be afraid of. If you feel uncomfortable when we look at you, we just don't look at you."
After hearing this, Ao Gong became more at ease and said, "That's not necessary. I'll just draw when my hands stop shaking."
You Xiangming approached Tie Hongyan and whispered to her, "Isn't he looking for an excuse to refuse the painting?"
Tie Hongyan said: "I can't see it. Don't worry, we'll know in a moment." Ao Gong thought about the man who threatened him to sell blankets, and remembered the times when he treated him badly. Anger arose in his heart and he was angry with him. Some of the fear will be eliminated. He thought about the first time that person threatened him, and he felt that he was extremely unlucky. Later, the person who threatened him to sell blankets also made him do extremely risky things. He often felt that that person didn't care about him at all. Treat his life as a human life, just use him as a tool. Recalling how he dared not speak out when he was bullied, some of the suppressed hatred in his heart burst out again. This rapid outburst of hatred washed away most of the previous fear. His hand finally stopped shaking and he wrote steadily, displaying on paper the image of the person who threatened him to sell blankets. After painting some places, he began to write some words, which were very detailed. He even hoped that after writing these things, he would no longer need to sell blankets soon.
After a while, he handed the paper with the portrait on it to Tie Hongyan and said, "Dear guest, I have drawn everything I can draw and written everything I can write."
Before Tie Hongyan looked at the painting, she stared at his eyes to test him: "Guarantee that they are all real?"
Ao Gong did not look away, looked directly into Tie Hongyan's eyes, and replied solemnly: "Of course! It's absolutely true!"
Tie Hongyan felt that he was speaking sincerely, so he turned his gaze to the portrait. It didn't matter, she found that Ao Gong's painting style was a bit similar to Tie Jinjue, although Ao Gong's painting skills were indeed not high, far inferior to Tie Jinjue's.
She asked Ao Gong: "Have you ever learned to paint?"
Ao Gong said: "It's not a formal study. When I was a child, I drew casually under the guidance of my late mother, but I didn't continue to learn, so my level was not good, and the paintings were not very similar, but I was really serious. Painted.”
Tie Hongyan asked: "Can you tell me your name?"
"Ah, you even have to ask this?" Ao Gong was stunned.
You Xiangming said: "Why, do you not know or don't want to say it?"
