Chapter 88: 87. Live Painting

Tang Shu instinctively felt this was a life-or-death question and stealthily took half a step back, and indeed, her new teacher did not disappoint, decisively planting her hands on her hips.

"What, you think I’m not qualified to take disciples, huh?"

The threatening tone fluctuated as she spoke, immediately causing Professor Yu to shudder.

"Of course, you are! You are the most respected expert and scholar in Chinese literary studies, how could you possibly be unqualified? She’s a great disciple to take!"

Professor Yu quickly realized something; since he couldn’t take a disciple, wasn’t it nice that his spouse was taking on a promising one?

After all, it’s all within the family, right? His spouse’s disciple would also be his disciple!

Old Madam Yu snorted coldly and took her new disciple’s hand, heading inside the house.

"Come in quickly, I made chicken soup today, and it has been simmering for two whole Shichen, guaranteeing a delicious flavor."

Dinner was exceedingly joyous, and as they were about to leave, Tang Shu hesitated before taking out the washed glass bottle from her backpack.

"Teacher..."

Before she could finish, Old Madam Yu decisively took the familiar glass bottle.

"Out of pickles? I’ll pack some more for you."

"..."

Tang Shu touched her flushed face and mentally cursed Cheng Ranran, the foodie, countless times.

Although a good half of the bottle had ended up in her roommate’s stomach, she would never admit that she had also grown fond of the taste of the pickles.

Never!

***

With the glass bottle filled with small cucumbers, Tang Shu opened her live stream as soon as she got back to East Lake Community.

There was still half an hour before the second live stream, and after she posted her room number again, a flood of comments immediately appeared beneath her Weibo post.

[Roar, another live stream, been looking forward to this!]

[Uncle She, I’m here! I missed it last time because something cropped up, but this time I’m supporting you till the end!]

[emmmm, I just want to ask, will there be a giveaway this time too?]

[Heartbroken, competing with over two hundred thousand people on Weibo for ten lucky slots, and competing with sixty or seventy thousand in the live stream for ten slots, still not enough!]

[All other things aside, this time I must get the link for the porcelain vase-making tools.]

[LOL, Uncle She has been dragged down the marketing path by you all, never to return.]

...

Tang Shu glanced at the number of people in the room, and even before the official start of the broadcast, it had already reached over forty thousand.

It seems... even more than last time?

She set up her newly purchased set of paints and brushes, and after completing the preparatory work, the hands of the clock pointed to eight.

By that time, the number of people in the live stream had reached eighty thousand, hitting the peak attendance of the last session.

Finally, Tang Shu followed the porcelain kiln owner’s instructions and added the shopping link for the tools to the live stream, and hit the start button.

"Good evening, nice to see you all again."

[Wow, I’ve been waiting for stars and moon, and it’s finally here!]

[Good evening, good evening!]

[Roar, it’s finally started; I hope I get picked this time.]

[Hello, Uncle She.]

[Uncle She, hello!]

Viewers in the live stream commenced greeting each other, and some had even started sending gifts.

"Before we start the broadcast, let’s first make up for the link I owed you from the last live stream. Friends who want to buy the tools can click on the sharing bikes icon in the lower right corner to make your purchase."

[Got it, going to place my order!]

[Oh my god, I can finally get my hands on the tools, I’ve been waiting for three whole days!]

[Order placed, ever since watching Uncle She’s last live stream I’ve been searching online for the same set. The price for a set of equipment is usually around two hundred or more, but I didn’t expect Uncle She to offer it for so cheap, only one hundred and eighty.]

[I just checked and indeed there was a discount of thirty bucks, Uncle 666~~~~]

[Ahhhhh, Uncle helped us bargain, we have to get it!]

[Already got it.]

[Already got it +1]

[Already got it + social security number]

...

Since the sharing bikes were only a link and Tang Shu was alone on her side, she didn’t see the backend transaction data.

But she had already made this clear to the other party, and she imagined that someone would be watching the data.

A pair of slender hands wearing gloves carried over a cardboard wood box, and after removing the foam fillings one by one, the white-as-jade body of the vase was revealed.

"The porcelain vases we made last time have been fired, and today we are going to color them."

Aside from the ten made during the last live stream, Tang Shu had also crafted some more on her own, adding up to around thirty in total.

[Ah I remember those, they were made by Uncle last time.]

[I remember too, those in the top right corner!]

[This small porcelain bottle looks so gorgeous after being fired, I’m amazed!]

[The finished product is even more charming than the last, so great——]

[So dainty, looks so cute, I really want one, ying~~~~]

[Newbie above, don’t you know? Ten of them have already been reserved.]

[I’ve got one, I’ve got one!]

[To the one ahead, I’ll pay 100 bucks for it, would you transfer?]

[I’ll pay 200! Transfer it to me, please!!!]

...

Tang Shu was busy mixing a few commonly used paints, completely unaware that a bidding war had started in the live stream chat.

"The first vase... let’s paint the Cold Plum Drawing."

Because the porcelain vase was small, Tang Shu placed it right under the camera, picked up a brush with her right hand, dipped it in the paint, and began to outline the design.

Soon, a red cold plum blossom had taken shape in the video.

"To paint the cold plum, the most important part is outlining its petals. The strokes should be nimble, and remember to retract the brush at the end..."

To ensure viewers could see clearly, Tang Shu’s movements were several times slower than when she normally painted, taking a full ten minutes just to finish one cold plum blossom.

By now, the viewers had been drawn into the atmosphere of learning to paint.

[Wow, that looks right——]

[Uncle explains very clearly, I think I got it!!!]

[You got nothing, as an art student, I can only say the drawing looks simple at a glance. But both the brushwork and artistic conception are already beyond average level.]

[I also painted a Cold Plum Drawing back in the day. It’s not even worth mentioning——]

[Telling you the truth, this is definitely the ’studied to no avail’ series. Your brain tells you, you’ve got it, but your hands can’t keep up.]

[Really want to learn, just want to ask if Uncle takes disciples???]

[So beautiful, can I have this small porcelain bottle? I won the prize!]

Tang Shu glanced at the username and remembered that the person was among the ten winners, so she simply agreed.

"Sure, ’I am Little Cutie’, right? It will be sent to you later."

[Ah ah ah it’s me, oh my god, Uncle remembers me ah ah ah——]

[Cut it out~~~ What’s there to brag about, it’s just a small porcelain bottle? Ying ying ying, I want one too!]

[It’s just a small porcelain bottle, but I’ve got one too, hhhhhh~~~~~]

[Yay yay yay, buddy, thanks for giving in, this small porcelain bottle is mine now!]

’I am Little Cutie’ had her tail proudly wagging to the sky, however...
