Chapter 39: Against the Sky
After the happy Dragon Boat Festival, Zhou's house was calm and comfortable.
In the windless afternoon, Xue Jian and Zhou Bo hid leisurely in a study that was not very large. They checked the plaster molds designed and made by Zhou Bo one by one. If they could succeed, they knew how profitable it would be, so the more they looked at it, the more they were, the more surprised they became.
"How's it going?" Zhou Bo's voice was obviously full of shamness.
Although Xue Jian was silent, she had to admit that Zhou Bo really opened her eyes.
In order to facilitate the making of molds in the future, Zhou Bo first hired different masters to make dozens of finely carved wood carvings of different shapes of wood, or simply bought some porcelain that you usually look at. These wood carvings and porcelains are without exception, with convex patterns on the surface, and the craftsmanship is delicate and exquisite. The texture is clear, the workmanship is exquisite, and the flowers and birds, landscapes, patterns and calligraphy are excellent. With these wood carvings, the plaster after which is poured on the left and right half on the wood carvings becomes a suitable gourd mold.
Too talented!
Of course, these are all nouns. Modern collisions and Fans play with Xuejian one by one. Although there are relatives planting gourds, how can she know so many inside information? She only feels that Zhou Bo is more thoughtful than her, and the selection of patterns is also exquisite and far-reaching.
I vaguely realized that the modeling design of these molds is the most difficult to do. It is difficult to design and produce without a certain space imagination, and the carving is also difficult. If the carving is not in place, the shape of the gourd will be more confusing.
But he said it in a bad way: "That's all." He should be the one who knows everything and can change everything. Even if he doesn't have the ability to build airplanes and cannons, it should be no problem to make a model, right? Who knows that there is such a big difference between facts and legends? I didn't do it before, but I still don't! She knows that she is not the smartest before wearing it, but shouldn't the story arrange for her to be extremely smart? Now everything is not as good as Zhou Bo, which makes her feel frustrated.
Zhou Bo said with his wrong teeth, "What did you say? I didn't hear it clearly, say it again!"
Looking at the mold on the table, the most naturally flowers are rich, such as Songhe Yannian, but there are also animals, fish, insects, mountains and flowers, and there are also two or three character stories. Xue couldn't put it down and pretended to be a fan and kept boasting: "Young master, you are really good! Hello, young master, the young master is great, the young master is really quacking!"
Zhou Bo has heard that it is sneering and twisting his eyebrows. What does the young master quack? But he still said proudly, "It's just something, it's nothing."
How can Xuejian be with him every day? How can he not know how much thought he has put into these things? His heart was sweet, sour and painful, but he said lightly, "Yes, yes, yes, who are you, young master? It's not a matter of hands to do these gadgets!"
Can you get it? An unlearned girl likes to use idioms indiscriminately! Taking a breath, Zhou Bo said, "As long as you like..."
How can you not like it? Xue looked at it carefully one by one.
Without TV, how can the ancients understand the wonderful combination of gourd and mold based on imagination?
While fiddling with these molds of different sizes, each of which makes her like it, he said quietly, "Dalang, I don't understand the mold or anything, but Xue is afraid that these plaster molds are set on the growing gourd, which will definitely affect the gourd itself. But will growing up make the gourd grow bad?" The gourd is set in the mold, isolated from the sun and air without withering. How high the gardening skills are required.
As she spoke, she was a little stunned and hated that she had no knowledge about this in her previous life. This is really a book when it comes to use!
"The plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky." Zhou Bo came over, wrapped his hand around the snow, and said softly, "It's grass. Even if the stone is pressed, it will break out of the ground. This gourd will expand and burst the plaster when it grows up. When it grows small, it will not print the texture at all. If it is too tender, it will rot. We are negotiating the price with God. It all depends on God's face."
A handsome face was so close that Xue saw her heart beat faster and gasped a little. She lowered her head and pushed Zhou Bo slightly. Zhou Bo ignored it and held her little hand in her hand. She only earned a few times and didn't break away.
Zhou Bo kissed Xuejian's hand gently. Xuejian's body was half crisp, her face turned red across her neck, and she struggled to say, "Someone saw it carefully." The sound was as thin as a mosquito. Zhou Bo asked in a low voice, "So tonight?" Saying that, he began to kiss up along Xue Jian's hand.
Xue saw that half of his body was sore and soft, but his mouth did not follow: "Dalang, you said you would wait for Xue to grow up..."
In fact, it was just to tease her. Zhou Bo sighed and waited for so long.
He held her tightly in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Okay, I'll wait..."
Neither of them spoke, but hugged quietly, as if they were absorbing nutrients and strength from each other.
Im Silently imagined that the success rate was so low that Xuejian had never thought about it before, but because of the difficulty, it became more and more precious!
The Zhou family can get better without these gourds.
However, Zhou Bo wants to compete with heaven. It is said that it is made into steel. He just wants to see if this behavior against the sky can make God open his eyes!
