Chapter 1183: The Pumpkin Art of the Villain Tuition
"Why are you so anxious to find Master Gu?" Liu Ming got into the car, fastened his seat belt, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. This matter was urgent.
"Haha, isn't this okay?" Li Han started the car.
"It's okay. I don't understand what auntie said. You are really an idiot. Why are you still embarrassed?" Liu Mingle said.
"Don't mention it yet. I thought it had nothing to do with it. I was talking to Jennifer and Lingna. Who would have thought, it would still be a bit embarrassing. Let's just take the opportunity to come out and hang out." Li Han didn't hide anything.
"Jennifer is a good choice. Han, don't belittle yourself too much." Liu Ming said. "If you like her, hurry up and catch up. Come on, how old are the children?"
"That's true, but it's not an urgent matter. Jennifer doesn't have time to think about it now. We'll talk about it in a few years." Li Han said, changing the subject. "By the way, how is Master Gu's craftsmanship?
?”
"The craftsmanship is definitely not mentioned. You are lucky. Master Gu's daughter came to the United States, and this old man came with her. I found out with great difficulty, but I can tell you that this person's temper is not very good, especially when working."
Liu Ming warned.
"A craftsman has a somewhat normal temper."
Li Han said lightly.
"However, I have a favor here. It's a test."
Li Han said.
"Okay, Master Gu also said that it doesn't matter what the test is."
Liu Ming nodded.
"That's just right."
The two chatted and came to Chris Hotel. "1020, have the guests come down? Are you Mr. Liu?"
"That's right."
"The guest is dining in the restaurant."
The waiter took the two people to the Chinese restaurant on the fourth floor. Gu Kaiyuan was drinking tea. "Master Gu. Director Liu, is this Boss Li?"
"You are too polite. My name is Li Han. You can call me Han or Xiao Li."
Li Han sat down, took the tea and took a sip. "What a good tea."
"Han also likes tea." Gu Kaiyuan has a scholarly temperament, more like a professor than a sculptor.
"I usually make a cup of tea when I have time. I don't know much about it, so I just ask Master Gu for advice on my hobby." Li Han gave Gu Kaiyuan a cup of tea.
"Director Liu may not have made it clear, but of course, the purpose of my coming to the United States is," Gu Kaiyuan said. "I have made some money over the years, but if Director Liu finds me, I am still willing to sell my face."
"However, I am a straightforward person. If the working environment is not satisfactory, I will not give in." Gu Kaiyuan said.
"Of course, even if Master Gu says so, let me be honest, I believe in Master Gu's craftsmanship. However, I want to see what Master Gu is better at, you know. I am a businessman, and sometimes, I don't value everything.
It's not just craftsmanship." Li Han picked up the tea and offered a toast.
Gu Kaiyuan nodded. "I just have time. You are familiar with this place. Let's go shopping. I came here this time without any tools. If there are any tools that I can use, I will not hesitate to use my skills."
Li Han smiled. "It just so happens that the farm is preparing for Halloween. I wonder, Master Gu, have you ever had any experience with pumpkin carving?"
"Pumpkin carving, this is quite new and good."
Gu Kaiyuan smiled. "We have had occasional contact."
Li Han said with a smile. "Then trouble, Master Gu, do something."
"Okay, after drinking this tea, let's go."
"Master Gu, I want to say that this tea, to be honest, Han has good tea. My old man said it is good." Liu Ming saw the two of them, swords and swords were like shadows, and he smiled and reconciled.
"Make tea by yourself, why don't you drink it yourself? Master Gu, if you have time, sit down and try it." Although Li Han knew that craftsmen are arrogant, he did not expect Gu Kaiyuan to be so arrogant.
"Good tea is rare."
Gu Kaiyuan finished his tea and stood up. Liu Ming had already arranged for someone to come here. "Han, this old man has a bad temper. Please bear with me. This is a master. He has the prefix Guo. If you don't step down, don't say I invited him."
You won’t even give me face.”
"No wonder, don't worry, as long as the craftsmanship is good, nothing else matters."
When the car stopped at the farm, Gu Kaiyuan got out of the car. He was drawing a little pumpkin figure in the yard and looked up. "Grandpa, who are you?"
"Oh, kid, this is what you drew."
Gu Kaiyuan knelt down, picked up the small pumpkin, and looked at it.
"Um."
Dudu said. "Dudu draws pumpkins and sells them to save for tuition. Can you speak Chinese? Yes, Dudu can." Dudu nodded vigorously.
"How old are you?"
"Four years old."
Dudu didn't forget to add, "Dudu is an adult."
"Hahaha, four-year-old, who called you?"
Gu Kaiyuan pointed at the pumpkin and put on the facial makeup. "Dad taught me carving? What is carving?" Dudu blinked his big eyes in confusion.
"This way grimace."
Gu Kaiyuan took the pumpkin on the side. "How much do you plan to sell it for? Five yuan, Dudu is working hard." Dudu said. "Grandpa, do you want to buy it?"
"Dudu can give it to you cheaper."
Dudu whispered to Gu Kaiyuan, "Grandpa can speak Chinese, and dad said Dudu is Chinese."
"Hahaha, yes, Dudu, so smart."
It was rare for Gu Kaiyuan to laugh heartily. When he came to the United States, he rarely met such a cute little guy, and he could also speak fluent Chinese. "However, this carving is not good."
"Grandpa, can you do it?"
Dudu held a small paintbrush with small tools piled beside it, including carving knives and other small tools. "Sister Dudu, who are you talking to?"
Baby, look up and see an old grandpa. "Hello, grandpa. Hello, you are so polite. Thank you, sister Dudu. Grandma asked, who are you talking to."
"Grandpa."
Dudu pointed at Gu Kaiyuan, who smiled. "Grandpa, will you teach you how to carve pumpkins?"
"Han, wait a moment."
Liu Ming stopped Li Han. "It's rare for Master Gu to be so happy. Besides, Master Gu rarely teaches others. I have to say that your Dudu is cute, smart, and polite, so he is very lucky."
"Haha, that's true."
Li Han said Dudu proudly. "You, Dudu doesn't look like you. That's Jennifer. She's so smart. She's probably from Jennifer's family as well."
"Okay, I won't tell you, I'm jealous."
Li Han pointed at Liu Ming. "Okay. Let's go. Go to the bar for a while. Maybe Dudu has already taken care of things for you."
With that said, Liu Ming took Li Han and went to the bar.
In the yard, Dudu stared at Gu Kaiyuan without blinking, waving the carving knife quickly at the little pumpkin. "Grandpa, you are so awesome."
"Haha, this is just the beginning, how do you know how powerful it is?"
Gu Kaiyuan was rarely happy. He came to the United States these days and his daughter had to go to work. He had no one to talk to. When he saw Dudu, he seemed to see his daughter when he was a child.
At that time, I was carving it by myself. My daughter was standing next to me with a smart look on her face. She called her dad, which was really awesome. "Dudu just knows it." Dudu thought about it and didn't even think about it, so he said with a big mouth.
"The carving knife must be steady, and the knife should follow a streamlined path. Before carving, you must know the path of the knife, how to go, whether it is upright, diagonal, picking, or hooking." After Gu Kaiyuan finished speaking, he smiled to himself.
"Understood?"
"Yeah." Dudu nodded. "You have to hold it tightly and don't shake, right, grandpa. You're so smart. That's right, you have to hold it tightly." Gu Kaiyuan laughed heartily.
One old and one young, they were joking. Gu Kaiyuan did not stop, while carving, he explained to the little guy. As for Li Han and Liu Ming, they had long been forgotten.
From a small pumpkin, Gu Kaiyuan spent more than half an hour carving out a character with extremely rich expressions. One old and one young, they were so focused that no one around them noticed.
"Grandpa, your carving is so beautiful."
The carved head is none other than Dudu, with a cheerful and vivid expression. "This old gentleman."
"grandmother."
Dudu stood up, clapped his little hands, and held up the little pumpkin. "Grandma, mom, look, pandora."
“It’s so beautiful.”
"Old sir, come in and sit down and have a sip of tea."
Zhang Xiuying said with a smile, "I am Li Han, mom, are you Master Gu?"
"Who is this child?"
"This is my granddaughter, this is my granddaughter." Zhang Xiuying said with a smile. "Are you tired, old man?"
"Haha, it's okay, it's just that I haven't done anything for a while, so I'm a little rusty."
Gu Kaiyuan smiled. "You, my granddaughter, are very smart. Although your carving techniques are immature, you have great potential."
"Yeah, Dudu, did you hear that?"
Zhang Xiuying smiled and touched Dudu’s little head.
"Well, thank you, grandpa."
Dudu held the little pumpkin and handed it to her mother. "Drink tea in the house."
"good."
"Dudu takes grandpa to wash his hands." Gu Kaiyuan said with a smile.
"Um."
Dudu took the lead and came to the sink. "Grandpa, wash your hands. Dudu is going to get a towel."
"Thanks."
After washing his hands, he came to the living room and Dudu handed him a towel. "Grandpa, wipe your hands. Thank you, Dudu." Gu Kaiyuan looked at the living room. There were many Chinese elements here.
"Old sir, have some tea."
"Thank you, good tea." Gu Kaiyuan took the tea cup and took a sip. The aroma of tea overflowed, and he knew it was good tea as soon as he smelled it.
"Dad planted it."
Dudu said proudly.
"Yeah?"
"Uh-huh."
Dudu nodded vigorously. "Grandpa, do you want some snacks? Desserts? The snacks made by grandma are delicious." Dudu said and ran to the kitchen.
"Grandpa, please eat."
The Dudu snack box was brought over and opened, and the little man was lying on the side, playing with the pumpkin head.
"Old sir, try it, it's made at home."
Zhang Xiuying sat down and poured drinks for Dudu and Baobao. "Jennifer, please drink some of the juice you just squeezed."
"Thank you, auntie."
Gu Kaiyuan took a sip of tea, and the fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth. It was really good tea. Gu Kaiyuan could definitely say that this was the best tea he had ever drunk in his life. Not only the tea, but also the water used to make the tea was good.
"You're too polite." Gu Kaiyuan spoke, looking at Dudu playing with his avatar. "Dudu, are you willing to learn carving from grandpa?"
"Yes, Dudu also wants to carve a beautiful pumpkin head."
Dudu nodded vigorously, full of expectation, and said. (To be continued.)
