Chapter 18 Visit Chang Tai
The situation of the two of them improved greatly the next day. In the morning, Qin Yaoyao opened the door fiercely, and then ate breakfast with a frosty face. No matter what Lin Yue said, she looked at her coldly and said nothing.
Lin Yue found that he was no match for women, especially women with ever-changing personalities. Qin Yaoyao was the same, and so was He Lanyue. In the end, Lin Yue took the initiative to apologize and punished himself by doing housework for three days.
Hearing Lin Yue's words, Qin Yaoyao, who was still sullen at first, immediately smiled and said: "You said this, I didn't force you." Then she quickly took a few mouthfuls of rice, rushed out of the room with her bag.
I went to work, looking at my posture, I was worried that Lin Yue would regret it.
Lin Yue looked at Qin Yaoyao's disappearing figure and suddenly woke up in his heart: Had he been trapped in a trap?
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to wake up, and all the housework for the next three days would be his.
Lin Yue looked at the mess in the room with a sad look on his face, and shook his head helplessly. He had done something wrong for himself. But if he hugged Qin Yaoyao again, it would be worth it.
He quickly thought that he had an appointment with He Changhe to go to the home of the sculptor Chang Tai today, and the time was coming soon, so he quickly took a few bites of rice and rushed out of the living room without even clearing the table and picking up his clothes.
Lin Yue was waiting for He Changhe's car at the agreed intersection. Not long after, He Changhe's classic car drove over. After Lin Yue got in the car, the two of them drove towards Master Chang Tai's house.
"Mr. He, does Master Chang Tai have any taboo words or things? I'm afraid I might violate his taboo by accidentally saying the wrong thing."
On the way, Lin Yue asked He Changhe worriedly.
"Haha, he has a good temper and has no taboos. He doesn't like young people talking too much, but he likes young people who are open-minded and eager to learn. After arriving at his house, if you ask more questions, he might develop a good impression of you."
He Changhe reassured Lin Yue and reminded him a few words.
Lin Yue smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this. He didn't know anything about sculpture, so how could he ask questions? He should have reviewed the books he had read on this subject before.
After more than ten minutes, the two people came to a quiet community.
After Lin Yue got off the car, he looked at the surrounding environment. The trees were dense and green, and the whole community seemed very quiet. It was indeed a good place for leisure and retirement.
Lin Yue followed He Changhe to the door of Changtai. He Changhe motioned to Lin Yue to behave better. Lin Yue took a deep breath to calm down and nodded.
As soon as He Changhe knocked on the door, the door was quickly opened.
The person who opened the door turned out to be a woman in her twenties with a beautiful but slightly cold face, a tall and curvy figure. The woman had fair skin and slightly cold eyes, but not only did she appear to be very agile, but her whole body exuded
The chill that no one can get close to seems to come from thousands of miles away.
Lin Yue secretly praised her in his heart, what a beautiful woman.
But then he had some doubts. Isn't this the home of Master Chang Tai? Who is this woman? What is her relationship with Master Chang Tai? Is it Master Chang Tai's daughter?
"Hello Grandpa, the teacher is already waiting for you in the study." The woman said and stepped out of the way, still without a smile, but with a hint of warmth in her voice like a silver bell.
"Haha, I didn't expect you Qingmeng to be here, how is your college life?" When He Changhe saw the woman in front of him, his eyes were swollen with a hint of surprise, and then he was relieved.
"It's very good. Thank you Grandpa He for your concern." The woman named Qing Meng bowed slightly and thanked her.
"Let's go and see that old boy. I don't know if he is dead." He Changhe said and led Lin Yue into the room.
Qingmeng seemed to have noticed Lin Yue only at this time, and just glanced at him lightly, and then looked away, as if she hadn't seen him.
"Her name is Li Qingmeng. She is a student of Yunnan University and a student of Chang Tai. If you have the opportunity to get in touch with her more, this girl is quite powerful." He Changhe said to Lin Yue in a low voice.
Lin Yue nodded, and then followed He Changhe into an antique-style study room.
"Haha, old boy Chang, are you dead?" He Changhe asked with a smile as soon as he walked into the study.
"Haha, how could I die if you're not dead?" A voice full of energy.
As soon as he entered the study, Lin Yue smelled a scent of rosin. It was very light but very good. Then he saw an old man in his sixties sitting in front of the desk with a rosy face and a still strong body.
This person is Chang Tai.
Then he saw many wood carvings, stone carvings, and many jade carvings placed in the study, all of which were vivid, vivid, and dynamic. Lin Yue felt excited when he saw them. The master's handiwork was indeed extraordinary.
He Changhe motioned to the slightly reserved Lin Yue to sit down, then he casually pulled up a chair and sat on it.
"You don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. Yesterday you called me and I knew it was nothing good. Tell me, what is it about this time? You want me to carve a work for you to participate in the treasure fighting competition? This time
We have agreed that if you can't find a better jade than last time, I won't sell it, and I'm short of money recently, so you have to spend a lot of money to buy it from me." Chang Tai and He Changhe grew up together.
Playmates, their parents are also close friends, otherwise He Changhe would not have the word "Chang" in his name.
"Are you short of money?" He Changhe's eyes widened and he looked at Chang Tai in disbelief.
Chang Tai's old face turned red when he stared at him, and then he said loudly: "Can't I be short of money? Students these days are no longer good. If you don't have money, they won't learn from you at all. In the past, the master was the master, but now the students are the master.
It makes me mad! But there is no way. The fault is so serious now, so I can only use money to stimulate them, which can be regarded as making some contribution to the country."
As he said this, Chang Tai had a disappointed look on his face, obviously very disappointed with today's young people.
A few words made Lin Yue feel that Chang Tai in front of him was a very responsible master. In order to promote the development of sculpture, he had to use his own money to stimulate his students. He really took great pains. He didn't know that he should be a master of Chang Tai's students.
I feel happy, or I feel sad for them. Such a good teacher is there, but he doesn't learn.
Hearing Chang Tai's words, He Changhe slammed the desk and said angrily: "Young people today are so shameless. Why do you teach students like that? You can just do your own thing."
!”
"It's easy for you to say. There are thousands of stone bettors and collectors all over the place. Of course you don't worry about yourself. How many people are learning carving? Those few will be good. Among the lame people, look for the general.
, there is nothing we can do about it." As he said that, Chang Tai sighed heavily.
Lin Yue suddenly felt his face burning as he listened to the words of the two old men. It was really embarrassing for a young man!
He Changhe understood his old friend's heart very well, and his anger was quickly suppressed by him, comforting him: "Don't worry, there will definitely be someone who can learn from you. I see Qing Meng, this girl is pretty good, I know
She respects the elderly and is very studious, would you consider accepting her as your apprentice?"
Mentioning Li Qingmeng, a smile appeared on Chang Tai's face. It seemed that he was very satisfied with her. Chang Tai picked up the tea cup on the desk and took a sip freely, and said lightly: "You don't have to say this.
, I have accepted her as a registered disciple, but learning sculpture is not something that can be accomplished in a day. She will graduate soon. If she doesn’t earn much from following me, it will definitely put a lot of psychological pressure on her, so I want her to follow me.
From now on, when I carve the work, I will first let her carve it into a rough blank, and I will do the rest. On the one hand, I will train her, and on the other hand, I will let her feel at ease and get a considerable reward."
"Well, that's a good idea." He Changhe nodded, then smiled and said: "If she is really under any pressure, she can arrange it with me, and I will definitely give her a good job."
"Get out of here! You actually poached me! No matter how poor I am, it won't be a problem to support an apprentice." Chang He gave He Changhe an angry look.
"Tell me, what exactly am I doing here this time?"
When he heard that the question got to the point, Lin Yue couldn't help but feel nervous. There was absolutely nothing wrong with Chang Tai's teacher ethics. Lin Yue also wanted to learn from such a teacher, but he was afraid that the other party would not accept him.
"This time I'm not asking you to carve. This time I'm bringing him here. This guy is pretty good and is very interested in carving, so I'm bringing him here to learn from you and let him know what it means to be a master." He
Chang He pointed at Lin Yue and said.
"Hello, Teacher Chang, my name is Lin Yue." Lin Yue stood up quickly to introduce himself.
Chang Tai took a deep look at He Changhe. After so many years of friendship, how could he not understand what He Changhe meant. He said that he wanted to teach the other person, but in fact, he found an apprentice for himself to show him.
.Then, he turned his attention to Lin Yue and looked Lin Yue up and down.
