Everyone said it looked like it, but he just refused to show it to them. The villagers standing at the door were scratching their heads in anxiety.
"Aunt Liu, I've finished my painting. Come and take a look. Are you satisfied?"
Aunt Liu finally stopped fighting and ran over to look at the portrait Jiang Li painted for the old lady.
Her husband, son, and son-in-law also gathered around. After looking at the portrait, everyone looked down at the old lady lying on the stretcher.
Except for one with eyes open and the other with eyes closed, all other details are exactly the same.
Even the mole on the forehead with a tiny hair on it was drawn by Jiang Li.
"Jiang Li! Aunt Six is impressed by your portrait skills!"
Aunt Liu immediately took out her wallet from her pocket, which was mostly filled with banknotes. She counted out a dollar and put it into Jiang Li's hand in front of everyone.
"Xiao Li, this is the money for the portrait. You painted very well, I am very satisfied!"
Aunt Liu put away her wallet and gave Jiang Li a big thumbs up.
Although one dollar seems like a lot and it hurts to spend it, there are only a few elderly people in the family. As long as their affairs after death are handled well, it is reasonable for their children and daughters-in-law to spend some money.
"Thank you for your approval, Aunt Six. I'm very happy as long as you are satisfied."
Jiang Li was so nervous that he was sweating all over. He drew the portrait quickly because he was thinking about his child.
She spent 40 minutes under tremendous pressure, and was able to get Aunt Liu's recognition, which showed that her efforts were not in vain.
"You're a good child. Come visit Aunt Six more often after you're done with the confinement period!"
Aunt Liu put away the painting and patted Jiang Li on the shoulder as she left.
No matter what mistakes she had made, that was her private matter. Her painting skills had been recognized by her, and she approved of her as a person in her heart.
The men carried the stretcher and followed Aunt Liu, quickly leaving Jiang Li's house.
Seeing that there was nothing interesting to watch, the others left one after another.
Some people chased Aunt Liu and insisted on seeing the portrait Jiang Li painted for the old lady.
Aunt Liu covered the portrait tightly to prevent them from seeing it.
"Don't worry, you will see it on the day the old lady dies."
Aunt Liu’s actions whetted their appetite. They waited at the door for so long, but they ended up watching in vain.
Some people beat their chests and stamped their feet, regretting that they had not squeezed in earlier, otherwise they could have seen it with their own eyes earlier.
Those who squeezed in were still vividly describing to everyone the scene of Jiang Li painting and the changes they saw in the paintings.
In the end, I can sum it up in one sentence: "It's amazing, it's amazing, it's just amazing!"
After seeing off the villagers, Jiang Li just stood up and felt dizzy.
He almost didn't sleep last night, and was kept awake by the noise during the day. In order to make money, he had to endure the inappropriateness of painting in public. Jiang Li couldn't bear it anymore.
Jiang Yi quickly supported her and helped her sit on the bed.
It is said that children from poor families grow up early. Although Jiang Yi is not very old, he has already learned how to make fire, chop wood and cook.
He almost starved himself to death because he didn't want to live anymore.
Now that his sister has returned with the twins, he knows what happened and his sister's difficulties. After untying the knot in his heart, he naturally no longer feels resentment and is willing to live a positive life.
Jiang Yi poured another bowl of millet porridge for his sister. These grains were left by Aunt Yao. The quantity was not large to begin with, and it was estimated that all the food in the house would be eaten up in two days.
It would be a problem if we had nothing at that time. My sister can't go out now, and it would be even more inconvenient for him as a child to go out.
Even if you have money in your pocket, you can't keep it and it can easily be stolen.
The most important point is that he was once caught by human traffickers, and now he has a psychological trauma about going to town.
Jiang Yi brought millet porridge to his sister's bedside and made her drink it himself.
The thin and dark brother took care of her as if he was taking care of a child.
Her younger brother is 14 years old and should be in school, but because of her, he has dropped out of school and stayed at home since September last year.
Jiang Yi is both good in character and academic performance. The head teacher is unwilling to give up such a good seedling and has visited him several times to persuade him.
At that time, Jiang Li could no longer support the living expenses of his younger brothers and sisters, and had long thought of selling them.
Since I was planning to sell it for money, I naturally didn't want to pay his tuition, nor did I want to spend this money in vain.
No matter how the head teacher tried to persuade her, she just wouldn't listen. Although Jiang Yi longed to go to school, he was also aware of his family's conditions. At first, he begged with tears, but later he gave up and said nothing.
Jiang Li felt bad looking at his younger brother's thin figure busying around in the house.
Her brother is so smart, he should go to school and study hard instead of staying at home and ruining his life.
She really needs someone by her side now. Jiang Li thought that after she was out of confinement, she would take her brother to school in person. By then, she would have some cash on hand, and if she asked the teachers at school for help, it should be possible.
Many thoughts flashed through Jiang Li's mind. She was so anxious that she couldn't even sleep. At this time, the eldest brother woke up again. He was crying loudly because he was not feeling well.
Jiang Li patiently picked him up and gently patted his back to comfort him.
The eldest child sobbed sadly because of the pain, and finally fell asleep in his mother's arms after being exhausted from the pain.
Jiang Li turned his head to look at his son's palm-sized face, and a flash of heartache flashed across his face for no reason.
Such a young child had to endure great pain because of her negligence. Looking at his red face from the fever, Jiang Li decided to give him another cold compress. If it didn't work this time, she would have to send him to the clinic.
