754: Homework Assigned by the Gods (1 More)
A little bit of dust was swept away, and the original appearance of the window lattice was revealed.
Xia Xiaolan didn't know where the materials were brought in. Ning Yanfan said that the renovation of ancient buildings is not to overthrow and rebuild, but to use some of the original old objects as much as possible.
"Architecture is built by people, and it adds to people's subjective consciousness."
Whether Duke Cao wrote about the Qing Dynasty has been debated until now, but to build the Grand View Garden, the debate can only be put aside. The Grand View Garden is a typical Ming and Qing courtyard style.
The Grand View Garden was built last year. It was almost a year later that the overall outline of the garden had come out. Ning Yanfan gave Xia Xiaolan and Ning Xue some on-site teaching in the shed, and asked Ning Xue to take Xia Xiaolan around.
"If you are interested in ancient architecture, you can take a look."
"Thank you!"
Xia Xiaolan understood, this is not to be an assistant, she is not useful as an assistant, and it is not like giving Ning Xue a lesson, she is not like a class, Ning Xue needs such a simple teaching? Ning Xue should have finished these courses at a level that even a scholar could publish papers.
This is the Grand View Garden. From last year to this year, Ning Xue probably ran here a lot.
Therefore, this "teaching" should be aimed at Xia Xiaolan alone.
It's not because Ning Lao sees that she is a prodigy of architecture, and she has to teach her all the skills. It can only be because of Grandma Yu... When Xia Xiaolan was going to take Grandma Yu to live in the capital, I didn't know that Grandma Yu knew Ning Lao, it was really a coincidence.
The god of learning is worthy of being a god of learning. Ning Yanfan said that after turning around the Grand View Garden, Ning Xueshen himself assigned a task to Xia Xiaolan.
She threw the tape measure and rope to Xia Xiaolan, "You can draw a floor plan of the Grand View Garden."
Can Xia Xiaolan say no?
She also has to thank the care of the gods.
Architectural floor plan... I didn't study it at all in my freshman year. Xia Xiaolan still checked the information herself. She had drawn a simple floor plan for Gong Yang to build a house in the countryside. Professional floor plan, Xia Xiaolan is really inexperienced.
And it is a large building complex as large as the Grand View Garden.
Xia Xiaolan's teeth are a bit sour, she can't say in front of Ning Xue that she can't, that she can't do it.
On the bright side, Xue Shen did not let her draw construction drawings, but left her a way out.
Ning Xue is not embarrassing. Without Ning Xue's help with the tape measure, Xia Xiaolan can't even measure the size correctly. This amount of work is definitely not something that can be done in two days on weekends. In two days on weekends, she may draw a sketch and complete the floor plan of the Grand View Garden. And more paintings!
While gesturing the record, Xia Xiaolan remembered the episode just now:
"Director Wang and I just met once. He wanted to ask me to film, but I didn't agree. I didn't expect that you asked me to come to Daguanyuan, and Director Wang was there."
Maybe in Ning Xue's world, except for architecture, everything else is not a proper job. Xia Xiaolan didn't want Ning Xue's impression of her to be worse. Xia Xiaolan knew what was business and was not interested in filming.
Ning Xue nodded, "Continue to measure."
Without saying anything, Xue Shen's expression was much softer.
Xia Xiaolan found that Ning Xueshen was very easy to get along with. It might be because of Ning Lao's instructions, or for other reasons. Ning Xue patiently accompanied Xia Xiaolan to measure the size. From time to time, I give Xia Xiaolan some professional knowledge. Measuring the size is not an easy job. I have to squat repeatedly. After doing it all morning, Xia Xiaolan has a sore back.
Ning Xue didn't seem to feel at all.
Before they knew it, the two of them had moved away from the group of experts, and Xia Xiaolan could take a break until noon when someone called for dinner.
"Let's go, eat and then measure."
We ate lunch in the Grand View Garden. There were many masters working here, and a group of experts that Xia Xiaolan had met, including Ning Yanfan. Everyone’s food was the same.
There are a few large tables in the open space, and the meals are placed in large pots. The washed tableware and chopsticks are in the baskets. You can take the bowls to add rice and scoop the vegetables. It is impossible to have tables and chairs. Just find a place to sit and eat.
"Teacher Ning, do you have any taboos?"
Ning Yanfan shook his head, "Not picky eaters."
Xia Xiaolan ran to bring food to Ning Yanfan.
An expert next to him was quite envious, "It's good to have an assistant."
Ning Xue didn't want to squeeze with a group of people, so she stayed by Grandpa's side for a while. Ning Yanfan asked her, "How is the morning?"
When asked how Xia Xiaolan was doing in the morning, Ning Xue's evaluation was very pertinent: "I'm not afraid of enduring hardships, but I'm also eager to learn... It's just slippery and a waste of talent."
Not only did Ning Xue say that Xia Xiaolan was slippery, but Ning Yanfan was noncommittal:
"You're still too young."
Not everyone can study with one heart. Everyone’s family is different, and the things they have to face in life are different, and their energy will definitely be scattered.
Those who demand that others have no heart, are content with poverty, and are obsessed with academics... often stand and talk without back pain. Ning Yanfan talked to Grandma Yu, knowing Xia Xiaolan's family background, how could she be able to get to where she is today, just by studying hard!
If Xia Xiaolan was like Ning Xue, she would not be able to settle down in the capital without thinking about other things.
The burden of life will be all on her divorced mother, who is an out-and-out rural woman, divorced in middle age, not as smart as Xia Xiaolan, not Xia Xiaolan taking her mother out and relying on her mother to farm in the countryside. It must be very hard for Xia Xiaolan to pursue her studies.
Some people can endure such poverty and hardship, thinking that a few years will pass, and of course their own learning is more important.
Some people can't bear it. They don't want to endure hardships themselves, nor do they want to sacrifice their loved ones by tightening their belts. They simply find a way to improve their lives by themselves.
Either choice is not wrong. Ning Yanfan is someone who has come here. Ning Xue has been smooth sailing since she was a child.
The grandfather and grandson didn't speak, and Xia Xiaolan came back with the food.
Ning Yanfan said that there is no taboo, Xia Xiaolan chose soft and rotten dishes considering his age, rice and vegetables were packaged separately, and also brought a bowl of rice soup to Ning Yanfan.
Ning Xue quickly helped her take the bowl, Xia Xiaolan smiled: "Ning Xue, what do you want to eat, I'll call back for you."
Ning Xue glanced at her, Xia Xiaolan was very confident: "You've been teaching me to draw pictures this morning, shouldn't it be better to cook a meal for you?"
It's really slick!
Ning Xue shook her head, "I'll go by myself."
As soon as the granddaughter left, Ning Yanfan smiled: "Axue's temper has always given me a headache, Xiaolan, thank you for putting up with her."
"You're joking, Ning Xue's true temperament is easy to get along with."
Those who have the ability are never afraid of having a temper.
What is Ning Xue? Even a skilled chef in a state-run restaurant is arrogant. If Ning Xue has the ability, he is qualified to be a maverick and is not bound by the rules of interpersonal communication. Rules are for ordinary people, not for geniuses - Xia Xiaolan has always felt that she is an ordinary person, an ordinary person with a bit of luck, so don't make yourself a genius and do the homework assigned by the gods.
