Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 479 Kindergarten Homework
To make a barbecue grill is mainly to consider the issues of smoke exhaust and heat supply, and the shape is also cartoonish, which needs to be considered in many aspects.

However, a small grill is not difficult.Cheng He consulted several stove-building experts in the village, and he already had a lot of ideas.

In the countryside, there is nothing unusual for a mason who can build walls, but when it comes to building stoves, this still requires skill. Smoke can't get out.

A good stove is really important in the countryside.

Experts who know how to build stoves can easily build a barbecue pit.Although those people didn't know what Cheng He was going to build, especially the shape of the piggy page, which looked weird, but they still enthusiastically told Cheng He.

Two other people expressed their willingness to help Cheng He build it up.

Other people's homes are busy, either making bamboo weaving or doing field work, how could Cheng He really let others do it?Do it slowly.

With expert guidance, you can avoid a lot of detours, such as where to leave gaps, where to be tightly built, where to pay attention to leveling, so as not to crack after a few days of burning, etc.

This is a closed barbecue grill, not the common open one. The roasting method is different and the flavor is also different.

Bai Qian watched Cheng He holding a brick in one hand and a trowel in the other, scooping up mortar and paste it to the edge of the bricks. The wall-building looked very professional, so she envied: "Okay! Have you practiced it before?"

Cheng He said: "Yes, I have helped before. What's the problem with this?"

Two walls are built, the other side is the outer wall of the kitchen, and then a roof is built, and the shape is started on the top.

The grill is generally arched, and on the basis of the arch, make a piggy shape, such as adding a pig nose, while the cement is wet, draw two pig eyes, and two pig ear.

The ears are not just for decoration, they are used to vent smoke.

While he was busy with his work, he heard Cheng Xinxin's joyful voice: "Dad, Dad, Dad, I'm back, Mom..."

The little guy had already finished school, and when he walked back holding his grandfather's hand, he saw his father busy with work.

She is so happy to know that there will be another Peppa Pig barbecue grill in the house soon.

Well, she doesn't know what a grill is, it's Peppa Pig anyway.She is very happy to have a big toy at home.

Bai Qiming picked up his granddaughter while still holding a bucket in his hand. It was his catch today, and he felt very happy.

There were two half-sized fish in the bucket, one weighed about a catty, and the other weighed only seven to eight taels. He didn't know either fish.

The fish here are still different from those in his hometown.

Seeing that he looked okay, Bai Qian asked him, "Dad, did you catch fish today? We'll have another fish tonight."

Cheng Xinxin, that little fellow, seems to never get tired of eating fish.

While tidying up his grill, Cheng He said, "Let's put the fish first, and I'll get it for you later."

Bai Qiming shook the bucket, seeing the two fish swimming happily, he was also very happy, and said: "That old Liu catches well, he catches more than me every day."

After staying in Taohua Village for so many days, I also like fishing, so I got to know Lao Liu and Lao Yang.

Only then did he know that many rich people specially come to places like Taohua Village to live for a long time, to spend the idyllic time in their later years.

Bai Qiming hadn't really thought about how he would live when he was old, let alone living a rural life in reverse.

I think back then, when my family was poor, I went out into the world with my family brothers, and I seemed to have made a vow never to return to the countryside.

Now, he can only smile at the oath he made back then.

Bai Qian watched Cheng He work on the grill, but couldn't help her. She got bored after watching it for a while, so she asked Cheng Xinxin, "Little guy, where's your homework? You should write it first and then go out to play?"

Cheng Xinxin put down her schoolbag and was about to go out to play, but she was caught in a serious manner and was very reluctant.

Bai Qian asked her: "Others do their homework at home, and they do it first before going out to play. If you go out at this time, who has time for you?"

Cheng Xinxin pouted, trying to refute but couldn't find a reason. After thinking for a long time, she muttered, "Mom, our homework today is to draw, but I can't..."

"Painting? Aren't you good at painting?" Bai Qian asked.

Cheng He bought all the children's paintbrushes for her, and she could use whatever strokes she wanted.Having said that, the little guy is already very promising in painting now.

When I first came into contact with painting, the teacher said that she used bold colors, her mind was unconstrained, and her overall view was very complete.

When it comes to unconstrained style, it's really a bit unconventional.Others learn to draw, starting with drawing a cup or a chair, but she likes to draw more complicated ones.

For example, there are all kinds of animals, there are all kinds of children playing games, and there are families going to play.Although the painting skills are average, the overall sense is very strong, and the details are taken care of.

Why did you frown when you mentioned painting today?

Bai Qian comforted her: "Xinxin, don't worry, what is it like? Mom is with you."

Cheng Xinxin had no choice but to turn around again, picked up her schoolbag, opened today's homework, pointed and said, "Mom, the teacher said to make one like this."

Bai Qian picked it up and took a look. The contents of the book were a few pictures, but the pictures were very interesting. All of them were animal shapes made of leaves or flowers.

For example, use a kind of red petals to make a little girl's red skirt, and then add a few lines with a pen, which looks lively, lovely and realistic.

Or a kind of white flower, piled up to make a puppy, and then draw two eyes with a brush, it will come alive.

The task of homework is to imitate a painting.

This exercises children's hands-on ability, as well as improving aesthetics and developing imagination.

Aesthetics really has to start with dolls.

Bai Qian looked at the pictures in the book and exclaimed, "These are really beautiful. Mom will make them with you, okay?"

She really didn't expect that such a young child is already accepting such aesthetics, which is much better than when she was a child.

Cheng Xinxin didn't like doing homework alone, so Bai Qian said to accompany her, and she happily agreed.

If you want to paint with flowers and plants, you don't need to go outside. There are all kinds of plants ready-made in the yard, and many of them have already bloomed.

Not to mention anything else, the leaves of the ginkgo tree alone seem to be able to make a lot of shapes, it depends on whether Cheng Xinxin can discover it and expand his imagination.

In this regard, Bai Qian did not make decisions for her, but let her use her own brain first to develop her brain.

Cheng Xinxin really started to use her brain, and began to think in front of the flowers and plants in the small yard.

She took a closer look and found that the leaves of each plant had different shapes!Some are heart-shaped, some are long, and some are tiny.

She picked a plant with small leaves and said, "Mom, can I use this?"

Bai Qian asked her softly: "Then have you thought about what to draw with this leaf?"

Cheng Xinxin thought for a while and said, "This can draw white clouds."

This kind of leaves painted white clouds?Bai Qian said: It doesn't look like it at all.However, she didn't reveal it, and encouraged her very earnestly: "Okay, let's draw white clouds in a while."

Sometimes, a child's thinking is different from that of an adult. She can't completely see the child from her own perspective. Maybe she has her own ideas?
Moreover, even if it is wrong, after a while, she may find that she was wrong just now.

It is of course much better to find mistakes after this kind of practice than to prevent her from practicing now.

I am not afraid that she will make mistakes, but I am afraid that she will be lazy and refuse to do anything.

As soon as Cheng Xinxin started to use her hands, she found the joy of doing it. She kept searching among the flowers and plants in the yard, picked up several kinds of leaves, and went to prepare for her homework with satisfaction.

Facts have proved that Bai Qian was right in encouraging her just now. It turned out that what Cheng Xin thought was really different from what she thought.

She just thought, the leaves don't look like white clouds at all, but Cheng Xinxin started to stick a few leaves together, forming several waves, which looked like simple clouds.

Needless to say, she is really ingenious.

Bai Qian helped her lay her hands, helped her apply glue, and glued the leaves to the paper.

After finishing the cloud, Cheng Xinxin made another arc with the slender foxtail and said, "This is an umbrella."

Bai Qian helped her glue it to the paper again.She was amazed by the child's creative ability.

Soon, she saw Cheng Xinxin's intentions.The little guy made a picture of walking in the rain. Under the umbrella is his family of three, and then there is a big yellow dog, a chicken, and Jiujiu.

Once, when they went to pick vegetables in the field, it just rained, and their family held an umbrella and went to pick vegetables together.

The screen looks pretty sweet.

Like the pictures in the book, she used a red leaf to paste a skirt, and added a few strokes with a pen to outline the shape of a little girl.

I have to say that the picture is very complicated, but she still has a complete view of the overall situation, there are not many of them, and the scene is still very logical.

Bai Qian is really convinced by the current preschool education. She didn't do so many things when she was a child.She felt that such homework was like homework for older children.

And if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would hardly have believed that a child as young as Cheng Xinxin could make such a painting.

The explosive power of the children is really amazing, and they often do some unbelievable things.

Maybe her thinking at this time is not as fixed as an adult's, and her brain circuits are more divergent, so she is more suitable for such a brain-expanding learning method?

Bai Qiming walked over and saw it, and praised him greatly: "This is Xinxin's homework? Well done!"

After Cheng Xinxin added a few more raindrops to the picture, the painting was completed. She took a look at the whole thing and said happily, "I want to show it to Dad."

Dad hasn't seen it yet.
