Chapter 2046 Survival Issue 4

Cheng Baoguo came over with half a watermelon cut by Fubao. He scooped out the red flesh with a spoon and ate it. He leaned over to look at the painting, but couldn't make out anything. "Isn't she just an older sister? I don't think she's as pretty as Fubao's."

"Dajie'er" is the dialect of their Huaihai City, referring to the golden cicada. The one that has not shed its shell is called "jielougui".

Wen Ruyu had lived in Wanglou Brigade for so many years and had eaten fried tortoise shells many times, so he naturally understood what he meant.

Fubao, who was dragged into the battle by Cheng Baoguo and compared with his mother, was speechless and found a magnifying glass for him.

"Why are you giving me a magnifying glass?" Cheng Baoguo looked puzzled.

"Look carefully at the golden cicada my mother drew."

Cheng Baoguo put down the watermelon, held up a magnifying glass and took a look at the cicada. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and blurted out, "Wow, this is a real cicada? The patterns on its wings are exactly the same as the real ones."

Unlike Zhu Ling, Wen Yue, Huang Qinghong and others, they do not have jobs. In short, they have no income at all.

"As a human being, you have to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. You can't blame Amo for being busy at work." Don't you also have to work hard to make a living?

Ouyang Lan also came over to take a look and exclaimed, "Xiaoxue has inherited the true teachings of Old Wen."

After her reminder, not only Wen Ruyu's eyes widened, but Jin Ruochu also stopped eating watermelon and suddenly realized, "I have been living a life where I always feel like I have neglected something. Now I realize that the lives of us old guys are really a problem. It is better to earn a few work points in Wanglou Brigade! The compensation from the state is really not enough for me to buy the four treasures of the study, let alone live."

Speaking of this, Ouyang Lan looked around at everyone and continued, "We old guys can't just sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor, nor can we rely solely on the help of our relatives and friends and the subsidies from our children. We have to find something to do."

Jin Ruochu's family situation was not as good as Wen Ruyu's, and most of his belongings were not kept. The state gave him a compensation, but the amount was not much, as it was based on the market price.

Wen Ruyu snorted, "Qingyin's talent is weaker, and Ah Mo was delayed by his work at the Academy of Fine Arts. He has made no progress for decades. It was only during the few years he was sent down that he calmed down and made a lot of progress compared to before. Shao Nong is okay, he has not let go in these years, but I don't know if Nan Sheng has slacked off while staying in Hong Kong."

Wen Ruyu was hired by Capital University before, but not now. She is not as good as Professor Xie and Qin Huai!

Ouyang Lan looked at him sideways, somewhat disgusted by Wen Ruyu's insincere words. She was an expert in fine brushwork and naturally knew Feng Qingxue's level. "Old Wen, aren't your requirements too high? If Xiaoxue can draw a cicada like this, she must be able to draw flies and mosquitoes. I think Xiaoxue's painting is very good. A-Mo and Qingyin are not at this level at their age."

Wen Ruyu was happy in his heart, but modestly said, "I'm still a long way from being good at it. In terms of fine brushwork, when I can paint a fly or a mosquito vividly, I will be considered a master."

Ouyang Lan spread her hands and said, "We need to brainstorm."

Wen Ruyu's two white eyebrows knitted together tightly. "How about we sell paintings? Just like before, I could sell a painting for hundreds of dollars. Now it should be at least a few hundred dollars, right? The bank's purchase price is one dollar."

Ouyang Lan bluntly hit him, "Don't be so wishful thinking. Do you think that people like calligraphy and painting are still popular now like they were in the 1930s and 1940s? Calligraphy and painting are being discarded like trash!"

Wen Ruyu, who had been wise and brave all his life, was finally stumped.

The baby came unexpectedly, because my body has not fully recovered yet, I planned to rest for a while before having another baby. But after 40 days of examination, I found fetal heartbeat and fetal bud. I have to take good care of it, because my mother is afraid that it will be difficult for me to get pregnant when I am older. Hmm, I am going to rest now. Good night everyone.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
