He's doing handicraft again

Last night, when Xia Yao asked him on WeChat if he could listen to the improved "Types and Development of Folk Handicrafts" and give some opinions, the soft-spoken Jiang Xin agreed.

Returning to the familiar university campus, he had only graduated for more than two months, but it seemed like a lifetime ago, Jiang Xin sighed inwardly.

After finding the classroom where Teacher Xia was teaching, Jiang Xin still sat in the last row of seats by the window as usual.

He arrived early, and Teacher Xia hadn't come yet, but the classroom was basically full of people.

Looking at these youthful students, chatting non-stop with each other, Jiang Xin heard a few words, all of which were to praise how Teacher Xia looks like a crown of jade, and his temperament is like an orchid in an empty valley. The bold girl even said I want to give birth to a monkey for Teacher Xia.

What a welcome!

Jiang Xin felt that he should have worried too much before, that song just happened to be a favorite of Teacher Xia. As for Xiao Yuan's doubts, it might be that he felt too good about himself.

Xia Yao stepped on the class button and entered the classroom. As soon as he entered the classroom, he looked to the back. Sure enough, he saw Jiang Xin. He was relieved and gave a small smile.

The girls down there were going crazy. Although Teacher Xia was usually a gentleman, she seldom smiled. Today, she showed her beauty for the first time, and took out their mobile phones to secretly take pictures and send them to the friends who didn't choose to attend the class.

The girl sitting in front of Jiang Xin felt that Teacher Xia seemed to be looking at her, and her face immediately turned into a cooked shrimp.

Jiang Xin didn't know anything about this. Seeing Teacher Xia looking in his direction, nodding and smiling at him, he also smiled back at the other party, wondering why Teacher Xia could see him so easily at a glance.

You still haven't changed at all, you like to sit in the corner, Xia Yao thought.

The content of this class is seal cutting. Jiang Xin still remembers that his essays were still written in seal script at that time. Now that I think about it, it was really a good second year.

I have to say that Teacher Xia’s courses now have more elements and more detailed content than those in the past. In addition, Teacher Xia’s lectures are always full of wit and wit, and there are many small jokes and jokes one after another. What should be a boring course He just made the students laugh and smoke.

Jiang Xin felt that he could not put forward any opinions at all.

Eh?Isn't this the small paper I handed in back then?

When Jiang Xin saw his little thesis written in seal script appear on the screen, he felt that something was wrong.

The students exclaimed for a while, what is this?

"This is an assignment handed in by a student when I taught this course for the first time. At that time, I stayed in the library for two full days in order to understand this paper." Xia Yao looked up to Jiang Xin when he said this. At a glance, "He is here today, let him come to the stage to talk about his thoughts on writing this paper back then."

Sure enough, the sins committed back then will have to be paid back sooner or later.

Jiang Xin slowly moved to the podium step by step like a snail, his mind was blank, and he didn't know what to say. Should he talk about how he felt that the brush and ink were useless and could only be used to write papers?

"I... I thought Teacher Xia knew seal script, and the topic of seal cutting was discussed in class, so I wrote the thesis in seal script. I didn't expect... no, if I knew Teacher Xia..." Jiang Xin stumbled Yes, I don't know how to say it properly.

"Don't be nervous, just talk casually." Xia Yao whispered into Jiang Xin's ear from behind, and even patted Jiang Xin's waist, and even put it on it after the pat!

Are you getting too close?Jiang Xin could feel the heat from Xia Yao's body when he approached, coupled with the heat from his ears, and the hand on his waist, Jiang Xin was going crazy and couldn't say anything.

Seeing that Jiang Xin's face was getting redder and redder, Xia Yao accepted it and took a step back.

"I thought Teacher Xia knew seal script, that's why I wrote the paper like this." After saying this quickly, Jiang Xin hurried back to his seat in the corner very timidly.

It is in stark contrast to the speed of the previous podium.

The students below said "hahaha".

"I don't know what gave Jiang Xin the illusion that I can understand seal script." Xia Yao said with a smile.

Just when it was time for get out of class to end, Xia Yao assigned homework and left the classroom with Jiang Xin.

"Mr. Xia, I think your class is very good, and I can't make any suggestions." Jiang Xin looked at the familiar scenery around him, and lowered his voice, "But I don't need to put my small paper in it. Well, I don't think it's useful for the whole class."

Thinking of so many people seeing his strange behavior back then, Jiang Xin felt very embarrassed.

No, on the contrary, nothing else is important, your paper is the most important, Xia Yao thought so in his heart, but said the opposite: "Since you think so, I will delete it next time."

If you hadn't come here today, I wouldn't have shown it to others.

Jiang Xin secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

At this time, the two walked to the corridor next to the corner where Jiang Xin used to secretly do handicrafts. Xia Yao stopped, and Jiang Xin didn't know, so he also stopped.

"Jiang Xin, do you know when I first saw you?"

As soon as he heard this question, Jiang Xin thought it was not good. Isn't this the beginning of a standard confession in an idol drama?

"It should be in the "Types and Development of Folk Handicrafts" class." Jiang Xin replied in a polite manner, his eyes could not help but glance at the place where he used to do handicrafts.

According to the standard routine of idol dramas, it must have been before this, but Jiang Xin really couldn't remember when he had met Mr. Xia before that.

"No, it will be half a year earlier. I used to be by that window," Xia Yao followed Jiang Xin's eyes and raised his finger to a window on the second floor, and continued, "I watched you do handicrafts for a semester there, And then there was this class."

Although Xia Yao didn't speak very straightforwardly, Jiang Xin could tell that this course was specially taught by Xia Yao for him.

What should I say, Jiang Xin's mind was confused, and he realized that he was leaning on a pillar, and Xia Yao leaned closer to him in a standard wall-dong posture with one hand on the pillar s face.

"I still have class in the afternoon, so I'm leaving first!" Jiang Xin pushed Xia Yao away and fled.

Xia Yao stood there and smiled wryly, was he too anxious?

—

Jiang Xin didn't know where to go after leaving Guizhou University.He was not needed for the afternoon class, and the stationery store was closed at that time.

He was wandering around the food street outside the University City, not knowing where to go.

A white long-haired cat followed him from inside to outside the campus. Jiang Xin thought he must be hungry. He looked around and found that the only food related to fish was octopus balls.

I don't know if cats like to eat or not. Jiang Xin bought a box and asked the store for an extra empty box. He put the empty box on the ground and put a meatball into small pieces on the empty box.

The long-haired cat sniffed the food, gnawed the little octopus, and ate the rest with great reluctance, but finally left the cabbage uneaten.

It raised its head and looked at Jiang Xin with watery round eyes, as if saying "I still want to eat".

Aren't you hungry, why are you still so picky?

Jiang Xin's uneasy mood calmed down inexplicably because he saw the picky long-haired cat. After he relaxed, he felt hungry, so he remembered that he hadn't eaten breakfast.

Forgot to tell Xiao Yuan that you don't need to bring breakfast, but the breakfast he brought should be given to a passing student, right?

He took the octopus pieces out for the long-haired cats to eat, and took care of the rest himself. After one box was eaten, one person and one cat felt that it was not enough, so Jiang Xin got up and planned to buy two more boxes.

Then I saw my college roommate Li Yufei queuing up.

"So it's really you." Li Yufei saw him, and greeted him through the six or seven people in line in the middle, "When I came here just now, I saw a man squatting there feeding the cat, and I thought it looked familiar, but Not sure."

Jiang Xin smiled awkwardly.

"Are you still buying it if you don't have enough?" Li Yufei asked.

"Well, I didn't eat breakfast, I'm very hungry."

Just when the line reached Li Yufei, he said to the boss, "I want six boxes."

There are eight octopus balls in this store, and there are exactly 48 on the baking tray at this time, which means that the people behind have to wait for the boss to make them again, and they all lamented.

Jiang Xin was also lamenting, but originally he had to wait for the boss to make the second set, and he only hoped that there would be no more one-man-buy-a-bunch like Li Yufei.

"Jiang Xin, let's go, let's feed the cat together." Li Yufei walked towards Jiang Xin carrying the little ball and patted his arm.

Jiang Xin was puzzled.

"You don't think I can eat that much by myself, do you?" Li Yufei said, "But let's find a quiet place to feed. It's embarrassing to be on the side of the road."

Jiang Xin finally turned his head around, picked up the empty cat feeding box, and followed Li Yufei.

The long-haired cat followed Jiang Xin obediently.

"Why is it following you and not me? I have the delicious food in my hands." Li Yufei resented.

Jiang Xin didn't know what to reply, so he could only smile.

—

Li Yufei found a playground and sat directly on the lawn. Seeing Jiang Xin sitting opposite him, he put six boxes of octopus balls between them.

The long-haired cat circled around the little ball.

"Don't worry, the 48 octopus inside are all yours." Li Yufei smiled and joked at the long-haired cat, then raised his head and asked Jiang Xin, "You didn't come to the University City just to eat octopus balls, did you?"

Jiang Xin: ...

"But the small balls here are really delicious, and there are 8 in a box, unlike the 3 in a box outside, which is more expensive than here." Li Yufei muttered, took out a box and handed it to Jiang Xin, "Hurry up and feed this little guy, he can't seem to wait."

Jiang Xin didn't expect that Li Yufei, who was from a wealthy family, would have such a simple side. He took the box, took out the octopus pieces for the cat to eat as before, and ate the rest by himself.

Li Yufei also followed suit.

"You can't be..." Jiang Xin saw that Li Yufei was eating happily, and asked, "Are you here to eat this?"

"Just by the way, I'm actually here to recruit people." Li Yufei began to complain when he said this, "My studio is for video, and I recently took a job to shoot the process of making paper sculptures, and the other party asked for Long shot, that is to say, actors must be able to make paper sculptures. I found a lot of people, but those with good-looking hands can’t do it well, and the good ones are ugly. I’m so worried, and the deadline is approaching, I can’t deliver There is still a penalty for the video, so I came to the university to see if there was someone suitable."

"That's it." Jiang Xin continued to feed the cat.

"I don't think I need to look for it anymore." Li Yufei suddenly grabbed Jiang Xin's hand, "After four years of university, I didn't realize that your hand is so suitable for being photographed!"

"wait for me--"

"For the sake of sleeping together for four years, please help me!" Li Yufei interrupted Jiang Xin and begged.

"But I still have a meeting to attend this afternoon." Jiang Xin declined politely.

"What time is it?"

"04:30."

"That's too late, let's go after eating, I have a car."

After Li Yufei finished speaking, he accelerated his eating speed, and Jiang Xin also accelerated under his influence.

The long-haired cat watched more and more octopus pellets in the box and purred happily.

—

Jiang Xin held the carving knife and was a little nervous.

He is now in Li Yufei's studio. Before shooting, a girl washed his hands meticulously, plucked the hairs on his hands, made a hand mask, and gave him a massage after the filming.

After such a series of operations, Jiang Xin felt that his hands were no longer his own.

"Is it okay?" Li Yufei asked Jiang Xin standing behind the camera.

Jiang Xin nodded.

"Action!"

As soon as Li Yufei finished speaking, Jiang Xin moved his hands.

He drew the first line quickly and accurately along the lines of the pattern, according to the principle of moving the paper and not moving the knife.

Because the cutting angle of 30 degrees to the paper surface is always maintained, every line drawn by Jiang Xin is very smooth, without the slightest jitter or burrs.

After all the patterns are engraved, it is time to start assembling.

Jiang Xin applied white glue to the bonding surface and glued it from the inside to the outside. Gradually, a paper sculpture in the style of an ancient palace lantern gradually took shape. Each side of the palace lantern is a mythical story in ancient China.

He put the LED light strip in the center of the palace lantern. When the light strip was turned on, the lights in the shooting room were turned off.

The LED light shines through the layers of paper, so beautiful that people can't bear to blink.

Jiang Xin had been waiting for "cut", but Li Yufei didn't call out.

He coughed lightly.

"OK, that's fine, Jiang Xin, you are too good, just pass it once." Li Yufei finally came to his senses.

"Then I'll go first," Jiang Xin said.

"Wait and I'll send you off."

"No, I just saw that there is a direct bus nearby, and it's very convenient to take a taxi." Jiang Xin refused, "Besides, you have to do the post-production."

"I..." Li Yufei really didn't have enough time.

While he was hesitating, Jiang Xin had already gone out.

The author has something to say: Li Yufei: I, who only appeared in the first and second chapters and only spoke two sentences, finally appeared!

Long-haired cat: thump, thump, thump, thump, thump!Congrats on my debut!
