Villa courtyard.
Jiang Zhe and his parents saw off several relatives.
"Xiaozhe, let's go back directly and you pack your things by yourself." Jiang Yi instructed.
"Drive safely and let me know when you get home." Jiang Zhe watched his father drive away with his mother and relatives.
He walked back to the courtyard and stopped under the wisteria trellis until the vehicles were out of sight.
The breeze carrying the fragrance of flowers could not blow away the depression between his brows.
This is the third group of relatives to come this week.
In addition to relatives, there are also friends of my parents and my own friends, and the frequency of their visits has increased sharply recently.
There were two main topics: one was that the prices of his works were getting higher and higher, and the other was that he was about to go to the United States to study.
Some people say it very directly, while others say it more tactfully, but basically they are asking you to help do something.
He smiled self-deprecatingly. Regardless of whether he was willing or not, how could he help?
"Jiang Zhe." A voice came from the gate.
Looking back, Liu Yifei was standing outside the iron gate, holding a large paper packaging bag in her hand.
"Sister Liu." Jiang Zhe walked over and opened the door.
Liu Yifei walked into the courtyard. Her light purple silk shirt was stained with sweat, leaving butterfly bones on it. There were also children's sequin stickers on the paper bag.
"Aren't you going to pick up the child today? Why are you here again?" Jiang Zhe closed the door and asked.
Liu Yifei has been a model for Jiang Zhe and has appeared in many of his works.
In order to thank Jiang Zhe for helping her child with schooling, she often comes to the villa to act as a nanny.
Jiang Zhe originally wanted to ask her to come over to help clean up because there were many new guests recently. But when he heard that Liu Yifei had to pick up her child today, he did not ask her. Unexpectedly, she still came over.
"I know you have a lot of guests here and you need help." Her eyelashes trembled as she spoke, and her beautiful face became even more charming.
Walking into the living room, she saw the messy appearance after the guests left. "Luckily I came over, otherwise, how long would it take you to clean up by yourself?" Liu Yifei looked at Jiang Zhe and said, "Lend me a room so I can change my clothes."
Jiang Zhe pointed to the guest room next door.
Liu Yifei took the packaging bag and entered the room.
After a while, I changed into a set of cooler clothes suitable for work.
Jiang Zhe watched Liu Yifei start to pack up, recalling the last time he asked her to be a model.
That time, she wore a cheongsam. The peacock blue silk showed off her curvy figure, and a white jade hairpin was pinned in her hair. She looked a hundred times more lively than those skinny girls.
"Sister Liu, how is the child lately?" Jiang Zhe also started to help.
Liu Yifei first put the things on the coffee table into the trash can. "She has been looking forward to the holiday for a long time. Her classmates in school talked about some parents planning to go out to play during the holiday, but she wanted me to take her out to play."
"You can go out for a walk during the holidays," said Jiang Zhe.
"It's not that simple." Liu Yifei replied.
Jiang Zhe said, "If the money is not enough, just tell me." Every time Liu Yifei came to be a nanny, Jiang Zhe wanted to pay her, but she always refused to accept it.
"I have enough money." Liu Yifei cleaned up the table and started to clean up the floor. When she squatted down to clean up the debris in the corners, her cropped pants were as round as a peach.
Jiang Zhe saw beads of sweat oozing out from the strands of hair on the back of her neck.
"How many years will you stay in the United States? Have you decided on the time?" Liu Yifei changed the subject and turned around, leaving an arc in front of her.
Jiang Zhe said: "Three or four years."
"So long? Can you adapt to the life there? Is there anyone to take care of you?" Liu Yifei smiled, her dimples filled with thoughtfulness that she wanted to express but couldn't.
Jiang Zhe began to organize the items on the cabinet beside the living room: "I am young and strong, I should be able to adapt to the environment there. As for life, it will definitely not be as comfortable as here. After all, I am going there to study."
Liu Yifei sorted the items in a very efficient manner: what to throw away, what to replace, and what to clean.
She passed by Jiang Zhe, her hair brushing the back of his hand, "Can someone take care of you?"
Jiang Zhe hummed and didn't continue speaking.
After the living room was cleaned up, Liu Yifei looked at Jiang Zhe's studio and said, "The studio is a bit messy too. Let me help you tidy it up."
"Okay. Thank you." The graduation project has been completed and some things need to be classified.
Liu Yifei was more cautious when cleaning the studio, and would ask Jiang Zhe every time she wanted to move something.
The speed of cleaning with two people inevitably slows down.
"When you have to go to the United States, do you want to take some information with you? If you need to pack, I can help you."
Jiang Zhe said: "Okay, I will tell you if you need me to."
The studio was finally restored to its original cleanliness.
Seeing that it was almost lunch time, Jiang Zhe said, "Sister Liu, please stay for lunch today. I'll order some dishes."
"No need. I've learned a few new dishes recently. Would you like to try them?" Liu Yifei said while washing her hands.
"It's too much trouble. Take a rest."
"Not tired, not tired. I like doing these. Just wait." Liu Yifei went to the kitchen to busy herself without saying anything.
Soon, several dishes were ready.
She washed up briefly, changed into clean clothes, and sat down at the dining table, face to face with Jiang Zhe.
Jiang Zhe saw that her collarbone was exposed at the slightly open neckline.
"Try this, it's my best dish." Liu Yifei pointed at the braised shrimps that were still steaming.
Jiang Zhe took a bite and was amazed.
He opened a bottle of champagne and they ate and chatted.
When they were almost done eating, Liu Yifei hesitated for a moment and said what was on her mind.
"Jiang Zhe, what can I do if I go to the United States?"
Jiang Zhe smiled but said nothing.
Liu Yifei talked a lot of ramblings during the meal.
He had already vaguely guessed what Liu Yifei was thinking.
"Sister Liu, have you had this idea for a long time, or has it only come to you recently?"
Liu Yifei said, "I had thought about going abroad before, hoping to find a job that pays well. When I saw that you were going to study in the United States, I got this idea again." After getting along with Jiang Zhe for a long time, Liu Yifei also knows his character, and it is better to tell the truth about some things.
Jiang Zhe said: "Language, work skills, living habits, these probably need to be prepared."
"I'll go there and continue to be your model and nanny. What do you think?" Liu Yifei looked at Jiang Zhe expectantly.
Jiang Zhe said frankly: "I am going to study, I am not sure if I can help others go to the United States. If you have this idea, you can make preparations. In addition, what about the children?
If she only models and babysits for me, and does something else in the rest of the time, wouldn't it be boring if she has nothing to do? Of course, this is all later. I have to go to the United States and see the situation there before I can make these decisions. "
He had another concern. After all, he was going to study, and if he brought a nanny with him, would he be laughed at?
Liu Yifei understood what Jiang Zhe meant and said that she was just saying it and asked him not to make things difficult for her.
After dinner, Liu Yifei helped clean up and suddenly asked, "Jiang Zhe, can I be a model again? Just as a farewell gift?"
……
The afternoon sun poured into the studio through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Liu Yifei was wearing a gauze and leaning on the sofa in a relaxed posture, looking out the window.
Jiang Zhe sat in front of the easel, using watercolor to depict a beautiful woman in deep thought. Liu Yifei's eyes were like water, her skin was as white as ice, and the light dyed her hair amber...
A June afternoon at the Esplanade Art Gallery.
The graduation exhibition is about to start, and the exhibitions of undergraduates and postgraduates will be held at the same time. It will be lively again.
In the open space in front of the museum, cars stopped one after another, unloaded their works, and then quickly left, and the cars behind them came in soon after.
Students are carrying their own works and are requested to enter through the main entrance.
Because there were so many people transporting works, import and export locations were automatically divided.
It was even noisier inside the art museum than outside.
From the 1st floor to the 3rd floor, there are students and teachers moving or hanging works in every exhibition hall.
Oil painting, printmaking, Chinese painting, watercolor, sculpture, and several design majors, all graduation works were unveiled at the same time.
From the school to every student, everyone is doing their best.
Jiang Zhe was on the second floor, helping Chen Yan and her classmates arrange their fashion design works.
After the table was set, several of Chen Yan's classmates expressed their gratitude. "Jiang Zhe, let Chen Yan treat you to cold drinks and ice cream."
"That's right, we can't work so hard in vain."
Chen Yan smiled and pulled Jiang Zhe away.
"Go check it out. Your work should be here soon."
Jiang Zhe said: "Don't worry, Mou Xing and Fu Min are waiting at the door."
The two came down from upstairs, and all the exhibition halls and corridors they passed by along the way were even more lively than before.
When students majoring in Chinese painting were carrying their works into the exhibition hall, students from the sculpture department were also carrying statues. Several tall and strong boys, all with oily foreheads.
"Excuse me, please make way!"
"Be careful of bumps!" many people shouted as they squeezed through the crowd.
Jiang Zhe and others had to move along the wall.
"Students from the Chinese Painting Department, watch the road!" a voice came from the watercolor exhibition area.
Jiang Zhe looked around and saw that many works had been hung in the exhibition area on the first floor. The boys adjusted the angle of the spotlights, the girls posted introductions to the works, and in the open space in the center of the exhibition hall, they were interviewing sculptures and comprehensive installations.
Around each large-scale work, there are busy figures and crowds of onlookers.
Jiang Zhe and Chen Yan carefully walked through the crowd and finally arrived at the open space in front of the venue.
As soon as I stood still, I saw a car with a gallery logo printed on it slowly driving towards me.
When Fu Min saw Jiang Zhe coming back, she hurriedly called him over to help.
Jiang Zhe and Chen Yan waited until the car stopped and walked over to move the works. The gallery manager, wearing work clothes, got out of the car with several workers.
She greeted Jiang Zhe and others and started unloading the car.
Jiang Zhe, Mou Xing, Fu Min, and the workers worked together to unload their works.
The frame of the work is wrapped with anti-collision cotton and protective cloth, but the effect is not visible for the time being.
Because Jiang Zhe's work is the largest in size and is a triptych, it requires a lot of people to move it.
"Make way! The big painting from the Oil Painting Department is coming!" one of the boys cheered, while making way for the passage.
Jiang Zhe and several staff members carried their own triptychs into the venue, followed by works by Fu Min and Mou Xing.
Teacher Hu had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw the works being transported in, he immediately began to give instructions: "Lift up the left side! Pay attention to the corner! Jiang Zhe, go to the main exhibition hall. Professor Qin is waiting there. Your work is in the first position, which has been reserved for you."
Her words attracted many people's attention.
The first position in the main exhibition hall is the facade of the exhibition.
Some people know that Jiang Zhe's works will be displayed here, but many people don't know.
Now that the work that occupies the first position has appeared, everyone who has nothing to do comes to watch.
Teacher Hu took Mou Xing and Fu Min to the oil painting exhibition hall.
Professor Qin and several teachers were in the main exhibition hall, watching the students hang their works and giving suggestions from time to time.
When he saw Jiang Zhe moving the works over, he immediately came over to help.
The first booth was very spacious.
Under the instruction of Professor Qin, the staff first removed the anti-collision cotton.
As the protective cloth is removed, the full appearance of the work is revealed.
The triptych is over two meters high and four meters long. The black walnut frame has a dark gold luster. The city scenery and group portraits in the picture seem to show the breath of the entire city.
Hang the work, adjust the position, and adjust the lighting.
"Jiang Zhe, this group of paintings of yours is absolutely outstanding." A teacher majoring in sculpture came over to watch.
Jiang Zhe said: “In the exhibition hall, there are works that are larger than mine.
"Comparing the size is useless. Your painting will be the most eye-catching one when it's hung up."
The teacher looked at it for a moment and said to Professor Qin, "I heard the department head say that there will be some media reporters coming over to collect materials in a while?"
Professor Qin nodded. "Yes, do we need people from each major to make a brief introduction? There may be people from more than a dozen galleries in the province for this graduation exhibition. On the opening day, there may be three media outlets."
Other teachers sighed: "Previous graduation exhibitions didn't cause this much noise."
Professor Qin understood the reason.
He looked at Jiang Zhe's triptych again.
The work faces the entrance of the exhibition hall.
He walked over and examined the work introduction that had just been posted.
A teacher majoring in printmaking also came to watch.
"Lao Qin, the name of this painting is City Life. Why?"
Professor Qin stroked his silver-white temples and said, "Jiang Zhe and I repeatedly studied the name of the work. Finally, we decided on this name. It expresses the urban life he recorded."
More and more people come to watch Jiang Zhe's works.
Many people began looking for opportunities to talk to Jiang Zhe with various purposes.
A stylishly dressed woman came up to Jiang Zhe and took the initiative to introduce herself. She was the business manager of a gallery in the provincial capital. She first congratulated Jiang Zhe on completing another masterpiece, and then expressed her willingness to cooperate. She was no different from the manager of Wang Zhen Gallery who was eyeing him covetously.
The business manager of Wang Zhen Gallery has received Wang Zhen's instructions to guard against it strictly.
Professor Qin and other professional leaders were called to the conference room of the art museum.
The vice president and the department head are talking to a reporter...
Jiang Zhe and Chen Yan, avoiding entanglement, walked out of the crowd and came outside the art gallery.
Chen Yan helped him wipe the sweat off his face. "The exhibition is ready, you can rest assured."
Jiang Zhe turned around and looked at the exhibition posters that were being posted.
The colors of the poster have both literary and artistic flavor and festive elements. (End of this chapter)
Jiang Zhe and his parents saw off several relatives.
