779 Laughter
Ye Xuan was also happy to see them like this. Then, he picked up the brush and placed it aside. He smiled at his sisters.
âIâm satisfied, Iâm satisfied. Iâm too satisfied!â
Ninth Sister Ye Xue was so happy that she immediately ran over to hug Ye Xuan and kiss him. Then, she came to the brush and looked at it with shining eyes. She even took out her cell phone to take a photo with a happy expression.
Seeing that Ninth Sister Ye Xue was so happy, Ye Xuan was quite gratified. He smiled and got up to wash his hands and make tea.
His sisters were left behind to take photos around the brush and exclaim, filling the entire villa with laughter.
The next day.
His expectant sisters woke up early in the morning and went to the balcony to look at the neatly arranged brush.
Ye Xuan woke up early in the morning and followed his sisters here to take a look. As he was the one who made it, he was the first to touch it.
The shaft had almost dried up, and the connection with the head of the brush was more stable. Moreover, the brush hair had completely dried up. It looked very loose and soft.
Hence, Ye Xuan picked up the brush and dipped it in water. He closed the tip of the brush and turned it into a complete brush. Then, he swiped it on the table twice and nodded.
âYes, not bad. Itâs enough.â
âLet me see, let me see.â
The sisters were all very excited. One of them picked up the panda brush and tried it. They all felt that it was not bad.
The last one was Ninth Sister Ye Xue. She had some foundation in calligraphy and painting. From the way she held the brush, it looked different from her other sisters. She was still very professional.
However, she did not casually swipe on the table. She returned to her room and found a piece of top-notch ink. After grinding the ink, she dipped the brush in the ink and wrote a few words on the top-notch paper.
The words said, âThe Three Money Repository.â
The tip of the brush was tactful and sharp. Her exertion and retraction of force was just right. The only shortcoming was that she lacked some experience. There were still many places where the form was not present.
Both calligraphy and painting emphasized on a form. For example, if one wanted to draw an apple, the natural arc of the apple should reach this standard. After breaking this natural standard, the apple in the painting would not look like an apple.
This was because it didnât have a form. It didnât look good. Perhaps it was just a little different, but it wouldnât look good.
As for calligraphy, reaching the form for each word was different from that of paintings. It was also more difficult because there were many types of font. However, if the words written didnât fulfil the rules of that type of font, it wouldnât have such a form. It would only look like words. It could only be said that one could recognise what was written.
For example, if one wrote good calligraphy in regular script, just the word ârighteousâ could make one feel a sense of ârighteousnessâ. This was the deterrence brought about by its form. Words were very magical.
After writing, she nodded with emotion and praised.
The sisters nodded and looked at the words their little younger sister had written. They did not know much about calligraphy and painting, so they could only say that the words were written very well.
Then, they praised her.
âNinth Sister, I didnât expect you to be so good at calligraphy.â
âYou still have some skills, Little Sister. This calligraphy is not bad. I think itâs very good.â
âI think itâs good-looking too. Ninth Sister is not bad!â
Ye Xuan nodded. It was understandable that his sisters didnât understand this, so he took a step forward and grabbed his Ninth Sisterâs brush. As he wrote, he corrected her.
âNinth Sister, your strokes arenât strong enough. You have to use force on the points of âmoneyâ and ârepositoryâ. Otherwise, people wonât feel the deterrence of these two words. Then, the effect of the words themselves will disappear a lot. Also, with regards to the word âtheâ, the horizontal line should be soft at first and hard towards the end. Yes, look at how I write it. Isnât it more imposing when I write it?â
After saying that, Ye Xuan grabbed Ninth Sister Ye Xueâs hand and wrote the four words, âThe Three Money Repositoryâ, again.
As soon as the words landed on the paper, the feeling they gave off was completely different from the four words written by Ninth Sister Ye Xue. Overall, they gave off a very imposing, sharp, and comfortable feeling.
This made the sistersâ eyes light up. Previously, without comparison, they thought that their Ninth Sisterâs handwriting was not bad. Now that there was a comparison, the difference was obvious.
It was obvious at a glance how ordinary Ye Xueâs four words were.
They immediately sighed.
âWow, Little Brother, youâre really capable. I feel like Iâm going to ascend as soon as you write.â
âItâs indeed not bad. These words are so imposing!â
âLittle Brother, this is good. Not bad, not bad.â
Ninth Sister Ye Xue was also stunned. She looked at the words and felt numb. Then, she turned to look at Ye Xuan and spoke.
âLittle Brother, help me write something.â
âWhat do you want me to write?â
Ye Xuan held a brush and asked. He didnât really care. It was just a matter of a few words.
Seeing that Ye Xuan agreed, Ye Xue pondered for a while and spoke.
âJust write, âThe heavens reward diligence!ââ
âNo problem.â
However, he did not sign. He mainly thought that he was just casually writing a few words, so he did not think too much about anything else.
After he finished writing, Ninth Sister Ye Xue was simply stunned when she saw the words, âThe heavens reward diligenceâ. She looked at the words in disbelief and could not say a word.
At a glance, these words gave off a very imposing feeling. It simply made people feel regretful when they saw this word. It was a very strange feeling. It was like when a person walked on the road and saw a piece of red paper about the size of money, they would have an instinctive DNA reaction.
This made Ninth Sister Ye Xueâs heart sink and she felt numb.
The other sisters were also very shocked. Although they did not know much about calligraphy and painting, they still had a feeling when they saw these words. They were very stunned and simply amazed.
