Chapter 368 Humbly Seeking Advice
Hearing this, Ji Ziang looked at the words on the wall and felt quite disappointed. "A painting that even my brother doesn't know about must not be famous. Forget it, let's look at the next one!"
As he spoke, he pulled Ji Zixuan and walked in another direction.
At this moment, a little boy who was about the same age as Ji Ziang suddenly spoke up: "Who said that paintings your brother doesn't recognize are not famous paintings? The artist of this painting is very famous, you should all know him."
The boy's tone was a little arrogant, and the look he gave Ji Ziang and the others showed a sense of superiority.
It would be fine if he was despised, but who is this person who dares to look at his brother like that?
You know, his brother is the top student in the whole grade.
Ji Ziang was not convinced, so he rolled his eyes and deliberately asked, "Who is it? I don't know many painters. Gu Kaizhi, Wu Daozi, Zhao Mengfu, Zhang Zeduan, which one of them painted this picture?"
The little boy smiled and said, "It is the painting saint Wu Daozi."
Ji Ziang was stuck for a moment, and said stumblingly: "Although Wu... Wu Daozi is very famous, this painting is not his representative work, and it is not taught in the book, so it is normal that we don't know it."
The little boy glanced at Ji Ziang and did not continue arguing with him about whether the painting was famous or not. Instead, he began to introduce the painting.
"This is a mural painted by the painting saint Wu Daozi on the wall of the temple. It is said that he only spent one night to paint this painting. In a sense, this is his masterpiece."
Ji Ziang curled his lips and didn't take it seriously.
I murmured in my heart: Tsk, what are you trying to show off? Is it so great to know a painting?
Ji Zixuan patiently asked: "What is the name of this painting?"
The little boy turned his head and looked at Ji Zixuan with a surprised look in his eyes: "The Hell Transformation Picture."
Ji Zixuan nodded and said with a smile: "You know a lot."
When Ji Zixuan said this, the little boy felt a little embarrassed: "Actually, our teacher mentioned this in class..."
The two chatted for a while and found that they had similar interests, so they traveled together.
Li Xu looked at the backs of the two people, with a thoughtful expression.
When we came out of the museum, it was already past three in the afternoon.
After Ji Zixuan waved goodbye to the boy, the boy left with his mother.
It was too late for them to go to the next museum, so after discussing with the children, Zhang Kun simply took them to the mall.
The shopping malls here are different from those in S City. There are brand new buildings and various high-end counters, which are enough to overwhelm people.
Even the clothes in the mall are more fashionable than those in S City.
Li Xu looked happy and bought two sets of clothes for each of the three children at once.
As for her and Zhang Kun, they each bought one.
The family of five returned with a full load.
It was already past six o'clock when we returned.
Ji Ziang was in the back seat, holding a map and studying the zoo he was going to visit tomorrow.
Zhang Kun chatted with the children in the back seat from time to time.
Li Xu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Zhang Kun naturally noticed Li Xu's abnormality. After washing up and going to bed at night, Zhang Kun pretended to be nonchalant and replied: "I saw that you didn't eat much at night. What are you thinking about?"
Li Xu was standing in front of the dressing table, applying cold cream on her face from time to time.
Hearing this, she turned around, looked at Zhang Kun, and said, "The little boy we met today is one year younger than Ziang, and he knows a lot."
So that’s why!
Zhang Kun smiled and joked with her: "What's wrong? Are you upset because you see other people's sons know more than our son?"
Before, no matter where Ji Zixuan went, he was always the best student.
He knows things that others don't know, and he can solve problems that others can't solve.
But today, Zixuan met his match.
In the museum, a little boy who was several years younger than Zixuan knew something that he didn't even know.
Li Xu shook his head: "I'm not upset. I understand that there are always people better than you. Zixuan can't always be the best one."
Zhang Kun was surprised: "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm just wondering, should Zixuan go to school in the city?" Li Xu said, "Schools in the city are definitely better than those in the county. Zixuan is ranked first in the county every year, and there is no room for him to rise."
Li Xu's words made Zhang Kun think deeply.
"He has no rivals here, so he can't improve any further. But when he gets to the city, his classmates will all be excellent. By then, he will have the motivation and will definitely be better than he is now. You also saw today that Zixuan is not someone who can't accept that others are better than him."
Zhang Kun nodded: "What you said makes sense."
He was surprised and proud of this at the same time.
When Ji Zixuan met someone stronger than himself, he would not be jealous or angry, but would patiently ask for advice. Even though the little boy was younger than him, he always looked humble and eager to learn.
"And I took a closer look on the way back. There really isn't a vegetable store like ours. If that's the case, then we have to occupy the market in the city as soon as possible."
Zhang Kun listened to Li Xu's words and laughed: "Okay, Boss Li, now you really act like a boss and think like a boss."
Li Xu closed the cap of the vanishing cream, turned around and climbed onto the bed, looking at Zhang Kun with some embarrassment: "If the children want to go to the city, it's easy. As long as there is a house in the city, the children can be registered. After the registration, they can go to school there. But, what about you?"
Zhang Kun was stunned for a moment: "What?"
"Your job is here. What will you do if we go to the city?" Li Xu was a little worried.
Although Zhang Kun's job is not tiring and can be considered leisurely, he has to leave home early and come back late. If they really move to the city, how will Zhang Kun go to work?
"Isn't it a bit bad if we live apart?" Li Xu looked at Zhang Kun and asked tentatively.
If that were the case, I'm afraid Zhang Kun would have to live here alone.
The family can only get together on weekends.
Zhang Kun's face darkened when he heard this: "That won't work!"
He reached out and pulled Li Xu into his arms, whispering, "Long-term separation is not good for the relationship between a couple. Besides, if I am not with my children for a long time, the feelings they have worked so hard to build towards me will probably be exhausted in two years."
They are father and son who got together halfway, so their relationship needs to be maintained.
