The first thousand two hundred and forty-three chapters donated mosquito nets for the festival of bear children
"Grandma, Dudu is back." Dudu, carrying a small snack box, ran into the small building. "Grandma, snacks."
"So good."
Zhang Xiuying took the snack with a smile and asked, "Why is it so late today? Dudu and Sister Baobao are selling pumpkins." The two little people said, put down their small schoolbags, ran to the dining table, lay down and stepped on their feet to take a look.
"Wow, so many dishes."
Zhang Xiuying glared at her son, who followed him in and started talking nonsense. How old are the two little guys? They drove the bullock cart every day, got up early and came home late to sell pumpkins. The family was not short of such a little money.
Li Han smiled. "It smells so good, Mom, what delicious food did you cook tonight? Jennifer, Lingna, now you can enjoy it." Li Han said with a smile.
Zhang Xiuying snorted and said with a smile. "Jennifer, Lingna, come in quickly. It's cold today. I just made a few casseroles. Drink more soup and replenish your body."
Sure enough, Li Hanyi said, Jennifer, Zhang Xiuying, everything was put down. "Mom, Dad, come quickly, there are so many delicious things." Dudu waved his little hand, calling mom and dad to come over.
"Go wash your hands and eat." Zhang Xiuying walked over. "There is still some soup in the kitchen. I will go and carry it."
Li Han saw his mother go to the kitchen and smiled at Jennifer and Ling Na. Ling Na covered her mouth and chuckled. "Han, it's really interesting that Auntie still treats you as your child."
Relatively speaking, Ling Na rarely saw parents here in the United States treat their children this way. Of course, these days, parents here in the United States are actually no less doting on their children than they are in China.
Most of the college students' tuition and living expenses are paid by their parents. It's really not many who really pay for the tuition by themselves. Especially for American children, protection is really more popular than in China.
While Li Han and Ling Na were talking, Dudu and Baobao had already washed their hands, placed the dishes and chopsticks, and sat down obediently to wait. "Dad, hurry up."
"Coming."
Li Han smiled and sat down. "Mom, Aunt Xu, it's time to eat. Eat."
At the dinner table, Li Han talked about Dudu and Baobao buying pumpkins. "As for pumpkins, it's pretty good around Halloween. Especially when you carve small pumpkins."
"Uh-huh."
Dudu ate rice porridge and said, "Dudu and sister Baobao are also carving pumpkins today. But what about after Halloween?" Li Han said with a smile.
Dudu was stunned for a moment and didn’t know what to say. “Well, then Dudu will buy a little pumpkin.”
Seeing this, Li Han puffed up his little mouth and said with a smile. "Dudu, you can earn fifteen cents from selling pumpkins. It takes more than sixty pumpkins to buy a mosquito net."
"Dudu knows."
Dudu said, and the little man clapped his fingers and counted Maria Mimi's lunch box, pocket money, Michelle's apples and pocket money, Dudu and the baby's pocket money. After calculation, we only need to buy forty pumpkins a day.
Or. Four or five carved pumpkins.
"Dudu, look, dad just asked you where the mosquito nets will be sent." Li Han took the tablet and was knocked by Zhang Xiuying.
"Have a meal."
Li Han had no choice but to lower his head to eat. Dudu, the little man, was full of curiosity. He ate the rice porridge and steamed buns in big mouthfuls, pushing the small bowl with chopsticks. "Grandma Dudu is full." She said and ran to Li Han's side.
.
Li Han had no choice but to eat. He took his tablet and came to the living room and sat down. "Look, this is the mosquito net you donated to a small African village. There are more than 500 children here. One mosquito net can only
For four children, more than 100 mosquito nets are needed here. It takes half a year to sell pumpkins and save pocket money."
"Chinese."
When Lingna heard what Li Han said, she suddenly paused and reminded Li Han loudly that Dudu was just a child and she shouldn't be put under such great pressure. "But Dudu's money has been used to pay tuition."
Dudu's little mouth bulged. "Dudu has no money anymore. Dudu, don't let the little kid get bitten by bad mosquitoes and die."
"Pandora, don't cry, it doesn't matter, aunt and mother will help you." Lingna glared at Li Han and wiped away her tears. "Yes."
"No." Jennifer came over and shook her head slightly. "Pandora, you have to know that besides this small village, there are many children who don't have mosquito nets. Mom and dad can only help one place, here or other children."
Dudu looked at her mother. "Pandora is fine."
Jennifer nodded and said nothing. Dudu sat beside her, lowering her head and thinking. "Pandora thought of raising funds. Sister Lucy told Pandora."
"Lucy?"
Jennifer was a little confused. "Hmm."
"Lucy is the child who donated all her savings at the charity party hosted by George W. Bush last time," Li Han said.
"I've heard that, but I don't know the name," Lingna said. "This kid has made a big splash. Pandora knows him."
"Yeah." Dudu nodded vigorously. "Dad helps Dudu raise funds."
"It's not difficult to raise donations, but, Pandora, do you have anything that can be auctioned?" Li Han asked with a smile.
"Dudu has many dolls."
"It's not enough. Not everyone likes dolls?" Li Han touched Dudu's little head. "Do you remember what dad taught you about making fans and raising bugs last time?"
"Yeah." Dudu nodded. "Dudu has a lot of bugs."
"Han, what are you talking about?"
"Haha, Chinese gadgets." Li Han's novel.
"Dad, you can do a lot better," Dudu said.
"It's good to make more of these little things for fun and sell them," Li Han said.
"Dudu and Baobao can draw and write calligraphy. It's better to use this to make small handicrafts with Chinese characteristics than pumpkins." Li Han said, he has been in the United States for many years, and he has learned a lot about it. In the United States,
The more ethnic something is, the easier it is to be recognized and liked by everyone, and the easier it is to make profits.
Aunt Xu came over with fruits and listened to what Li Han said. "Little Han, aunt can't help much. Look, can paper cutting help Dudu and the baby?"
"Paper cutting?"
Li Han really didn't know that Aunt Xu knew this craft.
"It's not that good. When I applied for the certificate last year, I had it cut. I see that foreigners like it very much." Aunt Xu said.
"Aunt Xu, your craftsmanship must be pretty good." Li Han was really interested after hearing this.
"I can't say. It was passed down from my family. It's not a good thing. It's of no use when it comes to the United States." Aunt Xu said.
"Grandma Xu, what is paper-cutting?" Dudu asked, an angry villain.
Aunt Xu smiled and said, "Wait a minute. I'm going to get the scissors. Aunt Xu will help you cut out a New Year picture doll later."
Two little people, Dudu and Baobao, followed closely behind Aunt Xu. Seeing Jennifer and Lingna's confused faces, Li Han explained with a smile. "Paper-cutting is a kind of Chinese folk art. Speaking of it, it relies on scissors and paper.
.Or other paper, such as leather, leaves, or gold foil, can be cut into patterns." When it comes to paper-cutting, Li Han doesn't know much about it.
I only know that this is an ancient folk art. Its origin and spread are closely related to the festival customs in rural China. During festivals or weddings, the word '囍' is often pasted on it. People paste beautiful and bright paper-cuts on the snow-white
On the walls or bright glass windows, doors, lanterns, etc., the festive atmosphere is rendered very rich and festive. Paper-cutting art is a traditional folk craft of the Han nationality. It has a long history and is enduring. It is one of the most popular Chinese folk arts.
A treasure that has become a treasure in the world's art treasure house.
Aunt Xu came over with scissors and paper. She quickly used the scissors and picked them around. Zhang Xiuying packed them up and came over. "A big girl can also cut paper?"
"Grandma, can you do the same?"
"It seems like I haven't had a haircut in a few years." Zhang Xiuying clapped her hands and said with a smile.
"Mom, you can also cut paper, why didn't I know?" Li Han asked.
Zhang Xiuying glared at her son. "This kid, you haven't seen your grandma cut paper when you were a child? I can't even remember this. Besides, Mom, you haven't cut paper before."
Zhang Xiuying said, "Since I gave birth to you, how could I have thought about doing this? When I was a child, I was afraid that I would lose my job because of you. I would let you live in your hometown and grow up. My eyesight is not very good, so I didn't do this."
After talking, Zhang Xiuying took it and saw that compared to Aunt Xu's big hands and rough feet, Zhang Xiuying looked more delicate and had a different paper-cutting style. After a while, a Nian doll appeared in Aunt Xu's hand, Dudu and Baobao, two little people, holding
.
"God, this is an amazing art."
Lingna looked at Nianwa and shouted loudly.
Zhang Xiuying was more complicated than the window grilles. When she came out, Jennifer was surprised. "Dudu needs to be learned. The baby also needs to learn." When the two villains saw each other, they even pestered the two grandmothers.
"Good, good, good, study." said the two villains.
The two villains immediately went to find the scissors and took out the paper.
Jennifer and Lingna also became interested and learned to cut the simplest double happiness characters. Li Han also knew how to do this. Zhang Xiuying sent Li Han to teach Jennifer.
"It's really interesting."
Lingna smiled and held up the cut-out word "hi". It wasn't very pretty and was a bit crooked, but this already made Lingna excited. Dudu and Baobao learned faster, and the two little people actually gestured.
English letters were cut out.
"marvelous."
Lingna praised, took Dudu and handed it to the paper-cutting, and tried to learn, wanting to cut out English letters. "If I want to say, it is your wife who cuts the window grilles." Zhang Xiuying touched the heads of the two little people.
Not to mention the two little people, Li Han didn't even remember what his grandma looked like. How many years ago. The two little people were looking at their little heads. Li Han smiled and patted the little people. "Study hard and cut out the paper dolls tomorrow."
On to the pumpkin.”
"Um."
The two little people nodded vigorously. It was almost nine o'clock in the evening and they were in a hurry to go to bed. "Sleep well."
The two little people nodded their little heads. "Dad, can you really sell it for a lot of money tomorrow? Of course." Li Han smiled and pinched the little noses of the two little people.
The two little people got up early in the morning and put stacks of New Year dolls and window grilles cut by Zhang Xiuying and Aunt Xu into their bags, along with scissors and craft paper. "Sister, baby, are you ready?"
"Ready to go."
The two villains packed up their lunch and set off. "There are enough pumpkins in the oxcart to sell today." Li Han looked at the two villains driving the oxcart early in the morning. You know, the weather is so early now.
But it was only less than ten degrees, so cold and refreshing.
"How can I stand this every day?"
Zhang Xiuying said, and glared at Li Han angrily. Fortunately, Li Han had already told Zhang Xiuying yesterday. "It doesn't matter. Dudu and the baby are in good health. Besides, I have chosen to wear thick clothes these days."
"You."
Zhang Xiuying snorted.
Li Han shook his head helplessly and planned to go see how the little bug was doing. Just as Ling Na was running back, they passed by together. "God, why are there so many bugs here?"
"Haha, Dudu and the baby are raising and playing with each other."
Li Han smiled and took out the leaves and sprinkled them on them. "Han, these are the bugs we talked about yesterday. What do you do with them?"
"Look."
Li Han took two fans and used bamboo. Break one end into bamboo strips and divide them with thin wires to make fan bones, like a small round wok. The handle is made of bamboo. The front part is made into fan bones and slightly folded, and the back part is made.
into a fan handle.
Li Han took it over with a smile, sprinkled some water on it, and put it in the plaque. "Hey, the bugs are all gathering on the bamboo." Lingna stared blankly, one bug after another crawled over, and soon the entire fan bone was covered with
colorful silk thread.
In less than half an hour, Li Han came out with two fans. "It's so beautiful. This one is for you." Li Han smiled and handed one to Lingna, and the other to Jennifer who had just returned from picking flowers from the garden.
.
Lingna told Jennifer the scene just now, and Jennifer was surprised. "Is this silk thread? Yes, these colorful silkworms, Dudu kept them for fun. Haha, the fan is an unexpected find."
Li Han said. "Speaking of it, this kind of fan is like a wok. It was previously pasted with oil paper, stippled, and inscribed. It can be regarded as a handicraft."
"Originally, I planned to do this with Dudu and Baobao. The two little guys can draw and write calligraphy. Although it is not very good, it is full of childishness."
Li Han said with a smile.
"This is a good idea. With a few more items, I think I can open a small craft shop." Lingna said with a smile.
"The craft shop, I can't say, the craft cart is quite good." Li Han said with a smile. "There may be one or two of these silk fans every few days, but the price is too expensive, so it is not suitable." Li Han said.
Lingna and Jennifer looked through the fans. "Han, the price is so expensive, it's just that the quantity is too small." Jennifer can help sell it, of course, without Jennifer's intervention.
It's just a pity that there are too few. Li Han nodded. "It's an oil-paper fan. It's not difficult to make. It's not bad to stick paper cuts on it, or draw some cartoons with Dudu and Baobao."
Although Li Han's farm does not grow much bamboo, it is enough to make fans.
Two little people, Dudu and Bao Bao, drove an ox cart to the small town. The town residents were used to seeing each other these days. They asked if there were not many pumpkins left until the two little people put out the paper cuttings and picked up the little ones.
Use scissors to cut paper, and it didn’t take long to attract a lot of spectators.
"What a magical skill." An old couple looked at a piece of red paper and a chubby little doll appeared in their hands. They were very surprised. (To be continued)
