Chapter 268 Destroying Paintings
Principal Sun and Professor Qi were the special guests. Knowing that one of them was a university president, the other was a university teacher, and the other was also a university staff, these soldiers were somewhat reserved.
Fortunately, there was Feng Wei, who was always talkative and good at handling things, and helped to ease the situation.
Seeing that they were not the kind of people who looked down on others, everyone felt relieved. Those who were good at talking came forward to say a few words, and for a while, they were in harmony.
Soon, various dishes were placed on the table one by one, and everyone couldn't help but glance at them.
Lu Weiguo invited everyone to sit down.
When everyone heard the host speak, they hurried to the table.
After the last dish was served, Shi Tingyu hurried back to the house, washed his face, changed his clothes and came out.
It was a hot day, and it was really exhausting to be busy in the stove for most of the day.
Lu Weiguo and his father and mother were not much better.
It was just that they were not as particular as Shi Tingyu. They simply washed their faces and hands by the well and wiped them with a towel.
Shi Tingyu and his family sat with Principal Sun and Professor Qi, otherwise everyone would be uncomfortable.
Shi Tingyu's cooking skills were well-known in the camp. It was thought that Aunt Lu had a conflict because of Shi Tingyu's good cooking skills.
Those who had eaten the dishes cooked by Shi Tingyu were the first to pick up their chopsticks, and those who had not eaten them were not slow to move.
When the food entered their mouths, the delicious taste made everyone feel a shock.
Delicious!
Everyone eating at the table was an acquaintance, and no one was polite to anyone. For the sake of the food, everyone spoke less.
Li Kang, who used to need someone to chase him when he ate, now became much more obedient. He no longer needed to be fed, and he swung his chopsticks very quickly.
Liu Caixia was surprised. Since her mother-in-law came to take care of the child, she really had never seen her kid so calm when eating.
It seems that next time I have to ask Teacher Shi about cooking.
Soldiers cannot drink alcohol, so this meal was eaten very quickly.
Mainly because the food was so delicious, everyone didn't have time to chat, but finished the meal first.
After the meal, Shi Tingyu picked some cucumbers and tomatoes grown in his own yard, washed them, and gave them to everyone as after-meal fruits.
There are more of these two fruits in the yard. If they are not picked soon, they will get old.
Compared with adults, Da Mao and Li Kang like sour and sweet tomatoes more. They each hold one and chew it happily.
Da Mao is very particular. He first bites off the small protruding tip of the tomato, then sucks the juice inside before eating it bit by bit. He looks so enjoyable, as if he is eating some rare fruit.
Mrs. Zhang is helpless. She also grows tomatoes in her yard, but she has never seen him like eating them so much. Could it be that the food from other people's houses tastes especially delicious?
After arranging the guests, the Lu family began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
They have to be sent back later, so as not to delay their dinner.
The adults chatted in groups of three or four, and the children also played.
At this time, Cao's wife saw Li Kang chewing a tomato. She looked around and took him to the back of the corridor pillar.
"Why are you looking for me?"
Li Kang was used to Aunt Cao looking for him from time to time, so he was not surprised at all.
Cao's wife smiled and said, "Kangzi, I see you seem to have eaten all the milk candy. Do you want to eat more? The auntie who gave you the candy before must have more in her room."
Li Kang's eyes suddenly lit up.
The White Rabbit Milk Candy was his favorite candy.
Although grandma would buy it for him, it was always secretly hidden by his mother, so he couldn't eat it to his heart's content.
Thinking that the beautiful auntie was really generous when she gave them candy today, he asked, "Which room is the candy?"
"In the east room."
Li Kang ran away after hearing it.
Mrs. Cao raised the corners of her lips and left behind the pillar as if nothing had happened.
The doors of Shi Tingyu's east and west rooms were all closed. Li Kang looked around and finally his eyes stopped on the door of the west room. He thought, this should be the east room, right?
Thinking of this, he pushed the door open and went in.
As soon as he entered, he was attracted by some paintings placed against the wall of the room and couldn't help running over to take a look.
Shi Tingyu's paintings are colorful and very attractive to children who have never seen them.
Maybe because he was full, Li Kang didn't go looking for candy immediately, but approached the painting.
Looking at the beautiful fruits in the painting, Li Kang swallowed his saliva and instantly felt that the tomatoes in his hand were not fragrant.
He reached out to touch it for some reason, and his hand stained with tomato juice was imprinted on the painting.
His hands shrank, and when he looked around and saw no one around, he wanted to wipe it with his sleeves, but he was wearing short sleeves and had no sleeves to wipe with.
He turned around and saw a white cloth covering something next to him.
Because the white cloth was a little closer, he reached out and pulled the white cloth to wipe the painting he had soiled.
Soon the white cloth was pulled towards him and slid a little, and just when it was about to wipe the stain, it got stuck.
Li Kang stood up and pulled hard. The picture frame, which was originally placed on the drawing board and was already half exposed, was pulled towards Li Kang.
Li Kang screamed in fear and subconsciously pushed with both hands.
Although the picture frame was large, it was not too heavy. When Li Kang pushed it, the picture frame shifted and fell to one side, knocking down many nearby paintings.
In the painting that was originally covered by a white cloth, there was a red tomato mark on Mrs. Gao's clean white hand.
Hearing the movement in the west room, Li Jian, who was originally playing with others, immediately rushed towards the west room.
Everyone also reacted and hurried to follow.
Feng Wei, who was sitting and chatting at the door, was the first to arrive.
As soon as he opened the door of the west room, he was stunned.
Li Kang was crying there, and several paintings of Shi Tingyu were knocked over.
At the moment Feng Wei was stunned, many people had gathered in the west room.
Li Jian yelled at Li Kang. If Feng Wei hadn't quickly grabbed Li Jian, Li Jian would have rushed out to fight with Li Kang.
When Lu's mother saw the painting lying on the ground, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and almost fainted.
Liu Caixia also ran over at this time, pulled Li Kang to look around, and found that the child was fine, she felt relieved.
Only then did she see the situation in the house clearly, and at that moment she felt her head buzzing.
Lu's mother also reacted at this time, and said directly: "It's bad, it's bad, this painting was bought by someone else! What should I do?"
While speaking, Lu's mother checked the painting.
When she saw that the canvas was intact and not torn, she breathed a sigh of relief, but she breathed a sigh of relief too early. When she saw the large tomato mark in the painting, she felt that it was all over!
Seeing that Mother Lu suddenly stopped moving, everyone looked over and gasped.
A good painting was ruined like this.
Father Lu's expression was also a little scary. He knew this painting. His daughter-in-law had been painting it for a long time. Because the painting was not completely dry before, she waited for the painting to dry in the next few days before delivering it.
Principal Sun recognized Mr. Gao in the portrait at a glance.
He had also seen photos of Mr. Gao when he was young.
