040 First cousin (1)

Xie Jiashu said to her, "When you first learn to draw, the first thing you need to learn is to look at it with your eyes, such as this old plum tree or this bush of bamboo, which is the simplest and easiest thing to draw.

But if you look at it carefully, you will find that the cold and heat are different, morning and evening are different, the clouds and sunshine are different, and even the temperature changes, whether there is wind or not, their shapes and spirits are different. The so-called learning to know is called studying things. This is the first level of learning to paint."

So she stared at the old plum and bamboo all day long. Xie Jiashu sometimes watched with her, sometimes sat beside her and looked at her writing, or drew a few strokes.

Later, when she grew up, she recalled countless times when she was with Xie Jiashu, and she felt it was incredible.

Xie Jiashu was silent and cold, and could even be said to be a little withdrawn. He was close to Xie Tanwei in the entire Xie family. He looked at Xie Jiameng differently, but he was not close to him. He rarely took the initiative to get close to her.

She herself looks well-behaved and quiet on the surface, but she is cold and unpleasant in her bones. She always keeps her guard against others.

However, when they met, he could sit next to her without saying a word all day, and he didn't feel bored.

And she, even if he was with her for a long time, wouldn't feel bored.

At that time, as long as she was in Xie's house, if she didn't go to Chongguang Courtyard to find him, he would definitely come to Liuyun Courtyard to find her. Even if there was something to be stuck, he would have to come to Liuyun Courtyard to take a look at her so that he could go back to bed with peace of mind.

Perhaps, the fate between people is so incredible.

Xie Jiashu's emphasis on her and Xie Tanwei's love for her in the future have led to her unique status in the Xie family. Although she is a cousin, she is not inferior to the two serious Xie girls, Xie Jianing and Xie Jiameng, she is even more favored than them in front of Mrs. Xie.

To her, the Xie Mansion is more like her home than the Qiu Mansion.

"Is the third cousin carrying it with bamboo?"

Xie Jianing's joking sounded in her ears. Qiu Xiyin withdrew her gaze and pursed her lips at Xie Jianing and smiled, "I don't want to learn from my cousin, Dong Shixi's imitation is funny."

"Oh, this little mouth is amazing. I just said something to you, and you have to say something to me and say I'm laughing at you."

Xie Jianing smiled and walked up to hold her arm. With this action, she saw the conspicuous scars on Qiu Xiyin's back of her hand.

Xie Jianing's eyes flashed slightly, and pretended not to see it, and smiled and said, "Come on, little girl with a good mouth, I'll take you around. Not only this Liuyunyuan, but also our front yard and backyard. You were sick as soon as you came and haven't had a good time strolling around yet!

A Meng's fool was painting again. She would definitely not get up until she finished drawing. Let's not wait for her to wait for her."

The lady in the family had an injury on her hand, so it must be another story. When she asked, she was suspected of exploring people's privacy. Such things were mostly difficult to say. She asked awkwardly, and Qiu Xiyin's answer must be even more embarrassing, so it would be better not to ask.

Xie Jianing was gentle and generous, patiently and meticulously took her around Liuyun Courtyard, and then took her to see Xie Jiameng and her yard, and warmly and thoughtfully treated her to lunch in her yard.

Finally, she personally sent her to the gate of the yard and reminded her attentively, "We live close to you. If my cousin is fine, come to my place to sit. I have nothing to do, so I have to go to my cousin's place often. Don't be polite, just treat this place as your own home!"

Qiu Xiyin thanked her and refused to let her go. She said goodbye to Xie Jianing and returned to Liuyunyuan.

She has been sick since she returned to Beijing. Although she has almost recovered, she is weak. After walking for such a long time, she is really tired. She washed up and went to bed.

She slept very deeply and smelled very much. When she woke up, she felt comfortable all over. She was still attached to the quilt and didn't want to move. After a while, she screamed lazyly.

Shu Xiu walked into the room with light steps, tidied up layers of snails, and said softly, "Girl, get up quickly. The Fourth Cousin Master has been here for a while and told me not to disturb the girl's sleep. I had to arrange the Fourth Cousin Master to drink tea in the flower hall."

Such things happened in the previous life. Qiu Xiyin was neither surprised nor panicked. She changed her clothes slowly and washed them before going to the flower hall.

Xie Jiashu sat in a ring chair by the window and looked at it with a book in his hand. He heard the movement and raised his head. He saw that it was her who stood up and bowed, "Three Cousin".

Qiu Xiyin returned the greeting, "My fourth cousin has been waiting for a long time."

Xie Jiashu looked at her, with a straight and serious face, "My third cousin recovered from illness and it is time to rest. It's okay for me to wait for a while."

Qiu Xiyin smiled sweetly at him, "Cousin, please sit down, don't be polite."

Xie Jiashu had no familiarity and tacit understanding with her in the future. After sitting down, he saw Qiu Xiyin not talking and just looked at him with a smile. He moved his knees and said, "My uncle wants you to draw a painting for him. Have you painted it?"

Qiu Xiyin then remembered that Xie Tanwei had assigned her such a task!

Seeing her hesitate, Xie Jiashu thought she was afraid and comforted her, "My uncle just wants to see how you painted. You don't have to be afraid, just draw it casually."

What you said is easy. She, a person who has been learning painting for more than 20 years, had to pretend to be an eight-year-old child to draw a painting. She could neither express it too much to make Xie Tanwei suspicious nor hide her clumsy too deeply to make Xie Tanwei think she is a fool and has no spirituality at all. How easy is it?

Seeing that she was still hesitant, Xie Jiashu suggested, "The plum trees and bamboo outside the pavilion in front are very simple and picturesque objects. If you draw well, you can also be brilliant. Why not draw that one?"

Seeing that he was about to accompany him throughout the whole process, Qiu Xiyin's head became bigger. She was not sure about the good times, and when she was stared at by his double pupils, her hands might tremble!

"I, I'd better draw it myself. If I had my cousin's advice, my uncle might say that I was taking advantage of the situation."

When Xie Jiashu and Qiu Xiyin were together, they were very good at speaking. After hearing this, they nodded and thought for a while before saying, "It's not interesting to play Double Lu every day. I saw that you had a good afternoon slept in the afternoon. I thought it was because I was shopping in the garden with my second and third sisters in the morning. It would be better for me to accompany you to the back garden so that you can sleep well at night."

When he spoke, his tone was very unnatural and his tongue was a little knotted, which seemed to be very uncomfortable with this careful plea.

Qiu Xiyin felt soft and laughed, "That's great! I often hear the fourth sister tell you how the Xie family's house is, and I still haven't had the chance to stroll around!"

Qiu Xiyin's bright smile and happy tone made Xie Jiashu happy. He showed a rare childish look and reached out to grab Qiu Xiyin's hand, "Then let's hurry up, the sun will set soon."

Qiu Xiyin quickly shrank back his hand. Xie Jiashu's eyes were always good. Qiu Xiyin shrank very quickly, but he had already seen the wound on the back of her hand. His eyes suddenly darkened, and he spoke seriously, "stretching out his hand."
