Rebirth do not come

Ni Hui stood up: "Grandpa, I'm going to practice calligraphy." After he went to Shanghai, he didn't practice calligraphy except for the two days in Suzhou. .

"Go." Grandpa waved his hand.

Ni Hui entered the study, spread out the paper to practice calligraphy, and Shui Xiangdong followed.Ni Hui didn't even look at him, and lowered his head to carefully moisten the brush. The brush hadn't been used for a long time and had already dried up. It needed to be soaked in water to soften it.Shui Xiangdong also consciously took out his own paper and pen to practice calligraphy. His calligraphy practice basically belongs to the kind of fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. There are too many things to do, and he stops when he is busy. Perseverance.

Grandpa went into the study to change newspapers, and seeing the two children getting ready to write, he said, "Hui Hui, practice calligraphy hard these two days, and take you to see the teacher in two days."

Ni Hui looked at Grandpa: "Grandpa, do you really want to find a teacher for me?"

Grandpa said: "Do you like writing? If you don't, we won't go looking for it."

Ni Hui looked at his grandfather and nodded, "I like it."

"Then go to the teacher. It happens to be winter vacation. If you have time, go and learn from the teacher."

Ni Hui nodded.

Shui Xiangdong looked at Ni Hui, hesitant to speak, his grandfather asked him: "Xiangdong, do you want to learn?"

Shui Xiangdong shook his head quickly: "I don't want to learn, just practice on my own." He has too many things to worry about, and he can't calm down to write. He just writes something to cultivate his mind and character.

Grandpa said: "By the way, Xiangdong, are you doing business recently?"

Shui Xiangdong blushed: "I earn some living expenses."

"Very good, you know how to be self-reliant and self-reliant at such a young age. What kind of business do you do?" Grandpa asked kindly.

Shui Xiangdong said: "Sell a handheld game console." As he spoke, he took out a rectangular object from his schoolbag.Ni Hui understood at a glance, isn't that just Tetris?

Ni Hui looked at Shui Xiangdong in surprise, how could he think of selling this game console.If he remembers correctly, Tetris has not been a handheld game console for a long time. It probably started in the late 80s and became popular throughout the 90s.

At that time, people forgot to sleep and eat for those few small squares, and even swiped that small screen all night long.Ni Hui himself used to be addicted to it. He broke two game consoles. Later, he gave up the game console and started playing on the mobile phone when he got a mobile phone. lay down.It has to be said that Tetris is a project with great business opportunities.

Shui Xiangdong handed the game console in his hand to Ni Hui: "Ni Hui, do you want to play? This is for you to play."

Ni Hui shook his head: "I don't play." Such a game console is estimated to cost tens of dollars each, which is not cheap compared to the current price.

"Let me see." Grandpa took it over, pressed it a few times, and Shui Xiangdong pointed it out. Grandpa said, "This is interesting. Where did you find it?"

Shui Xiangdong grinned: "I went to Shanghai to buy the goods."

"You also went to Shanghai, when did you go?" Grandpa asked in surprise.

Shui Xiangdong said: "Well, after you left for two days, I took the train. The ticket check was not strict, and I didn't spend any money."

Ni Hui felt a little contemptuous in his heart, and even evaded the fare.

Grandpa asked: "How much is this one?"

Shui Xiangdong said, "I'll sell it for 25."

"What about the purchase price?"

Shui Xiangdong said, "Ten yuan."

Grandpa's eyes widened: "The purchase price is so cheap?"

Shui Xiangdong said honestly: "I buy less, otherwise it will be cheaper."

Grandpa said, "How did you come up with the idea of ​​selling this? Do you know where to get it?"

Shui Xiangdong said, "I went with a boss."

Grandpa nodded: "I have ideas and courage. Xiangdong is not bad, and he will have great achievements in the future."

Shui Xiangdong was a little embarrassed. In fact, he didn't go with others, but he found it by himself. He smiled shyly: "I just want to earn some money to support my brother and me."

"How much did you buy, is it sold out?" Grandpa asked again.

Shui Xiangdong said: "I bought a hundred and only sold a few dozen. I want to sell them slowly after school starts. When I go to school to sell them, there should be more people buying."

Grandpa frowned: "Is it a bit too much?" One hundred is the cost of 1000 yuan.

Ni Hui lowered his head and wrote, and listened to all these words. He still had some brains and knew how to do business with students. However, 25 yuan a game console is not affordable for ordinary students. The Year of the Monkey is coming.

After Ni Hui came back, Shui Xiangdong didn't go out to set up a stall anymore, and took a day off to play with his younger brother at Ni Hui's side.Sha Hanming and Zhang Yong were invited to Ni Hui's house to play puzzles, but the world's puzzles were too complicated, and the two guys didn't have the patience to do it, so they left it alone and went to play Tetris.

Zhang Yong and Sha Hanming held the prototype of Shui Xiangdong, shaking their heads while playing. The cubes should be placed here. The game console in their hands, together with their bodies and heads, involuntarily tilted to this side, and the cubes should be placed there. Their bodies just leaned over there, and it looked ridiculous.When Zhang Yong played, Sha Hanming cheered and cheered. When Sha Hanming played, Zhang Yong cheered and cheered. The two had a great time.

Ni Hui squatted on the ground to pick up puzzle pieces, and Shui Xiangdong also squatted aside to pick them up, discussing with Ni Hui from time to time, where to put this one, and where is the puzzle piece in that place.Ni Hui picked it up for a while, then dropped the jigsaw puzzle in his hand: "It's too difficult, I can't put it together, I don't want to play." Then he ran to play Tetris with those two.

Ni Hui took the game console, and Sha Hanming and Zhang Yong hung on one shoulder and cheered in his ears: "Change quickly, change quickly, left, left... Hurry up, I'm going to die!" In full swing.

Shui Xiangdong looked at Ni Hui playing with the game console, with a smile on his lips.As a result, the big jigsaw puzzle was almost completed by Grandpa and Shui Xiangdong.

When Shui Xiangdong returned home at night, he handed a game console to Ni Hui: "Ni Hui, let me play this for you."

Ni Hui glanced at him: "Why? I don't want it."

Shui Xiangdong said: "I see that you really like to play. You gave me a car, but I have nothing else to give you. Give this to you."

Ni Hui turned his head: "No need, who said I like to play?" After speaking, he turned and left.

Shui Xiangdong stopped holding the game console in mid-air, looking at Ni Hui's back with a lonely face.

Grandpa was worried that Shui Xiangdong’s game consoles would not be easy to sell, but Shui Xiangdong cleared all of them before the Chinese New Year. There were about 20 left, and he sold them to a boss on Fallen Street for 40 yuan each. They sell them for [-] yuan each, which of course has nothing to do with Shui Xiangdong.

Shui Xiangdong made more than 1000 yuan in this business, and found that it was quite profitable. He turned around and put Shui Xiangyang with Grandma Ni Hui, and went to Shanghai to buy goods. He told Grandpa and Grandma Ni Hui that he was with someone else. Go, in fact he went alone.

Grandpa and grandma were very surprised. Grandpa said with emotion: "Xiangdong is quite a business-minded kid. In just a short time, he has earned more than 1000 yuan, which is similar to the income of others in the first half of the year."

Grandma nodded: "Yes, I was worried about him as a child. It must be very hard to live with my younger brother. From this point of view, there should be no shortage of money, but there is no love from parents. If such a smart and capable child How gratifying that his parents are here."

"So, the children of the poor should be in charge of the family early." Grandpa sighed, and turned to look at Ni Hui, "Huihui, you have to get along well with Xiangdong and don't always be so cold. We should help others and treat others kindly, so that when we When you are in trouble, others will help you."

Ni Hui lowered his eyes, looked at Shui Xiangyang who was concentrating on playing with the car, and said "yes", "I see." Sometimes you still have to do things that are obedient to others.

Grandpa took Ni Hui to learn art from a teacher. He was the former curator of the Municipal Cultural Center. He used to be a subordinate of Grandpa. He was the most famous calligrapher in the city. Coincidentally, he was also good at facial expressions.At the request of his grandfather, Ni Hui respectfully kowtowed to the teacher and served tea according to the old rules.

The teacher's name is Tian Zhonglei, and he is older than my grandfather. Although he is a subordinate of my grandfather, my grandfather respectfully calls him Teacher Tian, ​​and my grandfather insisted on doing the apprenticeship ceremony.

When Teacher Tian saw Ni Hui for the first time, he first took a good look at his face, then pinched his right hand for a closer look, and then asked him to write a few words for him to see, and then he agreed to accept him as a disciple.

Ni Hui knows that all talented people have weird tempers, and Teacher Tian is no exception.Mr. Tian is a very stubborn person. He was often oppressed during WG. Fortunately, he has a good body and he carried it over. However, his body was also collapsed. With a height of 1.8 meters, he is now as thin as a handful of firewood , No matter how much you take care of it, you can't bring it back.

Mr. Tian is a man of character. His handwriting is well-known in the local area. Many people come here to ask for his handwriting. However, people he despises will never write for them, no matter how high the price is.If he likes it, he can get nothing.

He is very cautious about writing, and his attitude is extremely pious. Before writing, he must wash his hands and burn incense. Even if he is giving advice to Ni Hui, he must wash his hands.

During the winter vacation, Ni Hui still started to practice calligraphy at [-] o'clock in the afternoon every day, but changed the location, it was at Teacher Tian's house. Teacher Tian didn't watch him write all the time. He wrote for an hour every time. After a while, write for another hour, and class will be over after the correction.

Apart from setting an example for himself, Ni Hui seldom saw the teacher write. At least during the period of learning calligraphy during the winter vacation, he only saw him write once, on the big desk in the study.Ni Hui was practicing calligraphy on the small desk here. He wanted to see what the teacher wrote, but after the teacher finished writing, he frowned, rolled up the piece of paper, and threw it into a bucket filled with water. It is obviously dissatisfied, and unsatisfactory works cannot be circulated to the outside world.

Ni Hui has only seen one handwriting of Mr. Tian, ​​which is a plaque hanging in the study, on which are written five big cursive characters-"Righteousness is full of heaven and earth", the font is free and easy, majestic, and extremely beautiful. It is said that this handwriting is the teacher's When I received the notice of redress, I wrote it on the spur of the moment.

Ni Hui is often obsessed with those words. If one day he can write such beautiful characters, he thinks this level is enough.

Teacher Tian looked into the eyes of the students and said, "There is no need to be envious. If you write well, you will definitely write better than the teacher in the future."

Ni Hui disagrees, writing is the same as painting and writing. Although the basic skills are there, it depends on the performance on the spot. If the emotions are in place, the understanding is enough, and the pen is swayed, it is the creation of that moment and place. If you want to imitate it in the future, then It is never possible.This is also the preciousness of works of art, because each work is unique and cannot be copied.

Thinking of this, Ni Hui couldn't help but feel full of confidence. No matter how well he writes, the words he writes in the future will be unique in the world. He may not be able to write as freely and freely as the teacher, but he may also reach the level that the teacher can't do. To another realm.Therefore, we must practice the basic skills well now.

The author has something to say: the last paragraph is what I want to say to myself. The article I wrote may not be good-looking, but the creation of that time and place has never existed before and cannot be copied in the future. It is unique. , is enough to be proud of.
