Chapter 298: The conspicuous bag Li Jian

Lu Weiguo had not been off work at this time, but the leader asked him to go to the family compound with the press group.

He knew that the leader also asked him to do a good job of monitoring the press group.

This is still an important area in the camp, so naturally someone has to accompany them.

However, the press group wanted to see Shi Tingyu's paintings in a private capacity, so it would be a bit unreasonable for the leaders to follow them. Lu Weiguo's identity was just right, and they were going to his home anyway.

In the crowd of people in the family compound, Shi Tingyu and Lu Weiguo took John, Irene and Allen to their home.

Because he had to go to the camp to help with translation today, Shi Tingyu gave Zhao Qiansun and the other two a day off.

Shen Shen and Li Jian were left at Mrs. Zhang's house.

Before Shi Tingyu and his friends arrived home, Damao hurried home to tell Zhang's wife that three foreigners with strange looks had come to their family compound.

Zhang's wife had never seen foreigners in her life, so she held Shen Shen at the door to watch the excitement when she heard the noise.

Shen Shen saw his parents and shouted in a row: "Mom! Dad!"

Zhang's wife quickly held the child, fearing that he would disturb Shi Tingyu and his friends' business.

This was private time, so Shi Tingyu didn't feel disturbed. She stepped forward to thank Zhang's wife and took Shen Shen. Li Jian also ran out

when he heard the noise. John knew some simple Chinese words, which happened to be what his parents could understand. He looked at Shen Shen in surprise and asked Shi Tingyu.

"Fiona, is this your child?"

Shi Tingyu smiled and said, "Yes, my son Shen Shen."

John called out Shen Shen in awkward Chinese, which earned Shen Shen a puzzled look.

Shi Tingyu looked at his son with amusement, and then introduced the American trio to the excited Mrs. Zhang. When

Mrs. Zhang heard the foreigners greet her, she was dizzy. If she hadn't thought about not embarrassing Shi Tingyu and the others, her mouth would probably be grinning from ear to ear.

Lu Weiguo was afraid that the sword without a leash would scare the three people, so he quickly stepped forward and grabbed the sword and invited the three people into the house.

Foreigners seem to be born to like children and small animals.

At this time, Shi Tingyu had both of these. When they arrived in the yard without outsiders, the three of them surrounded the children and the dog, and the smiles on their faces never stopped.

When Shi Tingyu was abroad before, she saw a very serious foreign mother. One moment she was speaking softly to a Chinese child playing nearby, but the next moment she saw the child's mother coming over. Without any hesitation, she looked up at the Chinese and left with a cold snort. She

was very schizophrenic and disconnected.

Shen Shen was meeting a foreigner for the first time and was very curious. Now was the time when the child was learning to imitate. When John said hello, he would shout hello.

Although the accent was weird, it made the three foreigners smile.

After amusing the child, the three became interested in Li Jian again.

They saw Li Jian's disabled leg, but this did not hinder their love for Li Jian, especially Irene, who had a dog at home and had a natural love for dogs.

Li Jian is a very human-like dog. When he sees guests, he always wants to show off. Shi Tingyu doesn't know where this performing dog nature of his comes from.

Seeing that the three foreigners like him so much, he started to show off.

He dragged stools for the guests to sit on and performed sweeping.

This series of actions directly frightened the three foreigners.

They kept exclaiming.

Amazing, oh my god, no way!

A series of exclamations made Li Jian almost fly. Even though he didn't know what these words meant, Li Jian could read people's expressions.

After he was sure that he had shown off to them, he calmed down.

The three foreigners were very interested in Li Jian. They asked about Li Jian from time to time. They even took pictures of Li Jian.

Shi Tingyu picked out some of Li Jian's heroic deeds and talked about them.

The three were very surprised. They didn't expect that this dog was actually a meritorious dog.

John paid more attention to the portrait that Shi Tingyu mentioned.

This is a new field, or a little-known field.

Shi Tingyu was not surprised at his surprise.

The profession of portrait painter started in the 1970s, and now few people know about it even abroad.

John has a very keen sense of news, and he asked a lot of questions about criminal portraits.

He even asked Shi Tingyu to draw a picture based on his oral description on the spot.

This kind of thing requires authenticity. It's not that he doesn't believe Shi Tingyu, but seeing is believing.

Shi Tingyu thought about it and agreed.

If you want to make a living by painting, it is very important to manage your fame, otherwise there won't be so many people participating in this competition or that competition.

John described a friend of his.

Shi Tingyu had lived abroad, so he had a good understanding of some of John's words and quickly drew a sketch of a portrait.

After John got the sketch, he performed a pupil earthquake on the spot for everyone.

"Impossible! How did you do it?"

"Yes, this is the friend I described, Fiona, you are simply incredible."

Shi Tingyu smiled and said, "I just draw more characters." Practice

makes perfect in everything.

John asked, "Can you give me this sketch?"

"Of course." Shi Tingyu said.

With this show of skill, the three were even more looking forward to Shi Tingyu's paintings.

Finally, Shi Tingyu took them to the room.

Because of the previous art exhibition, most of the paintings Shi Tingyu left at home were of his family and Li Jian, and some were recently painted.

John looked at them carefully, his eyes full of admiration.

After a long time, he said, "Fiona, your painting has improved a lot compared to before."

After thinking for a while, he seemed to have found an appropriate word, "Your paintings were very sharp before, but now they are more rounded and natural."

Shi Tingyu's eyes lit up. It can only be said that John's eyes are still very sharp.

"After all, I am not that 18-year-old girl now. People's experiences will change their painting style."

John deeply believed it.

A painter always has to experience several changes in painting style.

Irene looked at Shi Tingyu's paintings and fell in love with a portrait of a sharp sword.

It was the left side of the sword, successfully covering its disabled right leg.

Its eyes looked into the distance, with the sharpness and vastness unique to animals, which reminded her of a lion lying on the prairie and looking ahead.

"Fiona, can you sell me this painting?"

Shi Tingyu was surprised that the other party would buy Li Jian's portrait. It seemed that she really liked Li Jian.

Of course, the painting could be sold, and she would not be so generous as to say that she would give it to the other party.

Not to mention that the two of them did not have much friendship, given the character of Americans, even if you gave it to them, they might laugh at you and call you stupid behind your back.

Shi Tingyu told the price of the painting, three thousand RMB.

According to the current exchange rate, it is about two thousand US dollars.

According to Irene and their current occupations, two thousand US dollars is less than one month's salary for the other party.

Irene agreed immediately.

For her, it is very worthwhile to spend one month's salary to buy a painting she likes.
