Aunt Liu called her husband, son and son-in-law, and carried the terminally ill old lady to the door of Jiang Li's house.
This was a rare event for the villagers. Everyone put down their work and ran to watch the fun.
Some people gathered together and began to make bold guesses.
"What bad thing has Jiang Li done again? Is Sixth Aunt going to carry the old lady to the door?"
"Didn't Jiang Li just give birth to twins and is still in confinement? Why did she offend Aunt Six's family again?"
"Look at Sixth Aunt's heroic and arrogant look. I'm afraid this feud is going to get even bigger!"
Carrying a dying person to someone else's door is something that no one would do unless there is a deep hatred.
If it was someone else it would be fine, but the protagonist this time is Jiang Li, who is famous in their village!
If I don't go and find out what's going on, I'll be so curious that I won't be able to sleep well tonight.
Aunt Liu instructed the men in the family to place the stretcher at the gate of the yard. She knocked on the door carefully, and her tone of voice became much softer.
The most important thing is that she calls Jiang Li...
"Xiao Li, I've had the old lady brought over. Please open the door."
Xiao Li???
Is this a name for someone who comes to seek revenge?
Why does it look like you're trying to please others?
And the tone was even gentler than calling one's future daughter-in-law.
what is going on? ? ?
Jiang Yi opened the door and invited Aunt Liu and others into the yard. Several villagers took the opportunity to squeeze in. After all, it was better to watch the excitement from a closer distance.
Aunt Liu was afraid that everyone would disturb the old lady, so she quickly closed the yard door. Aunt Liu's action successfully aroused the curiosity of the villagers, and everyone stretched their necks to look inside.
Jiang Yi placed a chair next to the old lady, and went into the house to help the pale-faced Jiang Li out.
Jiang Li held a paintbrush and an easel in her hands, and she sat in the middle of the yard under the gaze of everyone.
"What is Jiang Li holding? Could it be a drawing board?"
"Can Jiang Li draw? When did she learn it? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Is she going to paint in public? Could it be that she really painted the portrait of the captain's mother?"
Questions popped up in everyone's mind one by one.
Jiang Li sat down and first carefully observed the old lady's figure and appearance.
Pay special attention to the wrinkles on the face and the red mole between the eyebrows.
Although today was not her first time painting, it was her first time painting in front of everyone.
Jiang Yi, who was standing by, was rubbing his hands excitedly. He was Jiang Li's younger brother, but he never knew that his sister could paint.
But this didn't stop him from believing his sister could do it.
He was the most suspicious of all. He didn't even know what happened at the captain's house. But he also trusted her the most. Even if his sister said she could pick the stars in the sky, he would still believe her!
The noisy crowd affected her thinking. Jiang Li just frowned slightly and Jiang Yi noticed it keenly.
He turned around, put his right index finger to his lips, and made a gesture to silence everyone.
"Shh—my sister is about to start drawing, please be quiet!"
Jiang Yi's eyes were bright and his attitude was sincere. With Aunt Liu putting her hands on her hips and glaring back, the crowd that had been talking a moment ago suddenly fell silent.
Jiang Yi was very satisfied with the result. Aunt Liu continued to put her hands on her hips and maintain this posture to intimidate everyone, so that they would not forget and disturb Jiang Li's painting.
"Sixth Aunt, do you want me to paint the old lady as she is now or with a smile on her face?"
"Just paint her as she is now. That's more realistic. But paint her with her eyes open. A portrait with her eyes closed is scary."
Jiang Li knew what Aunt Liu wanted, and the paintbrush in her hand moved quickly, quickly outlining the outline of the old lady.
"It's moving, Jiang Li is moving!"
Someone whispered, feeling extremely excited.
Can Jiang Li draw? Let’s see his true skills right under your eyes today!
Whether it is a mule or a horse, you will know everything by taking it out for a walk.
Jiang Li knew very well what this painting meant today.
The public has sharp eyes, and it is difficult to satisfy everyone. It is not easy to make everyone happy.
She wanted to make money in Jiangjia Village, so the portraits she drew had to convince the public.
Jiang Li appeared calm on the surface, but his hands were actually shaking slightly.
She suppressed her excitement and carefully outlined and filled in the details. The villagers standing outside and peeking at her stood on tiptoe and stretched their necks.
Those who had sneaked in earlier also stretched their necks and stood behind Jiang Li. They first saw some messy lines, and then these lines took on the outlines of people.
As Jiang Li continued to fill in the lines with the pen in his hand, the seemingly messy lines gradually took on the appearance of an old lady.
Their eyes were wide open and their mouths were open in surprise. Seeing it from such a close distance was the most intuitive. They saw that the lines were obviously unrelated, but the more they looked at them, the more they looked like an old lady lying on a stretcher.
Especially her tightly closed eyes, now open on the paper.
Wow! This is so realistic, it really looks like the old lady suddenly opened her eyes.
What she was holding was clearly an ordinary pencil, but it unexpectedly became magical in her hand.
The painting is almost finished, but Jiang Li is still sketching the details.
When the red mole between the old lady's eyebrows was painted, the people standing behind her watching opened their mouths so wide that an egg could be stuffed in.
“This, this, this, this, this…”
A man pointed at the figure in the painting and was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a long time.
Isn't this the old lady herself? How did she suddenly appear on the paper?
Something they had read about in books before came to life on paper. They used to think it was impossible, but now that they saw it with their own eyes, they had to believe it no matter how much they disbelieved it.
Two of the villagers rubbed their eyes desperately, and only screamed in surprise after making sure they were not dazzled.
"Oh my god! Jiang Li drew it, she really drew it!"
"It's so realistic. When I put the painting there, it's like the old lady suddenly opened her eyes and looked at me!"
"It turns out Jiang Li really can draw. Yao Qiaoyun didn't lie, nor did she deliberately speak well of her!"
Several villagers excitedly rushed to the edge of the yard. They pointed at Jiang Li's back and excitedly told everyone the details they had just seen.
Some people were so excited that they almost jumped up, and if anyone still refused to believe it, they would be so anxious that they wanted to fight with them.
Jiang Li has entered a wonderful state at this moment. No matter how noisy the noise around her is, she can immerse herself in her own world.
The old lady's appearance became a 3D picture in her mind, with every detail visible.
The villagers thought she had finished the painting, but in fact the final detail was the soul.
It was not until Jiang Li put down her paintbrush and waved to Jiang Yi that he ran towards his sister.
The moment he saw the portrait of the old lady, he covered his mouth and burst into tears of excitement.
"Same, so similar, sister, you are great!"
