Although Madam Xie disliked the original owner, fortunately, in order not to disgrace the Xie family, she would let her study and learn to read, write, play the zither, play chess, play calligraphy, paint, and embroidery with the other young ladies.
While not an expert in everything, they know a little bit about everything, so they won't embarrass themselves or bring shame to the Xie family when they go out.
Liu Moyang quickly ordered people to prepare these things. Shu Lan had been standing for quite a while, and her face was getting paler and paler.
He asked with unusual concern, "Does Madam need a doctor?"
Shulan saw that someone had brought over the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, and even thoughtfully brought over a table and a bench. Xiao Cui began to grind the ink.

Since this dynasty doesn't have it, let her use her cleverness to her advantage and offer it to the Buddha.
Of course, she felt that this bow was still too big. What she drew was the latest version improved by the postmodernists, the kind of crossbow that even she could shoot with both hands.
It's true that a brush can't draw as detailedly as a pencil; you can only try your best to depict it.
