Chapter 2540 Bracelet and Snake
They all forgot about it.
But today he received version 2.0 of his last gift.
Xiao Xiao's eyes were full of smiles.
"Thank Mr. Mu for me."
"Mr. Mu's craftsmanship has become more and more sophisticated."
"so amazing."
Xiao Xiao's straightforward praise made Mu Tansong unable to control the smile on his face.
"Ah."
".My dad is really awesome."
Mu Tansong couldn't help but say.
"He spent a whole week carving this piece."
“Excellence.”
“My dad was very happy to see the final product.”
"He said he had no regrets."
Originally, Mu Lao was very satisfied with the gift given to Xiao Xiao.
It was a work that marked his long-awaited breakthrough.
But later, when he found out that Abai was a snake and not the bracelet he thought it was, he couldn't help but feel that his work was not perfect.
Even though everyone says it's good...
It's just a minor flaw and it's not a big deal.
But Mu Lao still felt aggrieved.
but
Just as Mr. Mu told Mr. Xiao, this work is his masterpiece.
To present such a work again...is not that easy.
After spending a long time, Mu Lao finally made up for his regret.
……
"My father wanted to deliver it himself..."
Mu Tansong explained why he was here.
"But my dad has been spending all his time on this project these days. He actually has other orders on his plate..."
But when inspiration comes, you have to seize it.
Because no one knows when the next inspiration will come if they miss it this time.
Without any hesitation, Mu Lao stopped the work at hand and devoted himself to this work.
It took a long time.
This is not a large sculpture, but it took about the same amount of time.
When the finished product was formed, Mu Lao almost felt faint.
He admired it for a long time.
Then I returned to reality.
The order he had taken on earlier was less than a day away from delivery.
Mu Lao suddenly felt the urgency.
He was unwilling to delay delivery whenever possible.
This will damage the reputation of Gumuxuan.
Although it was a bit regrettable, in order to meet the deadline, Mu Lao was unable to hand the new gift to Xiao Xiao personally.
"I will volunteer to deliver this gift to you on behalf of my father."
"My dad said that the gift he gave you last time was flawed."
"This time it's complete."
Mu Lao is an old craftsman.
He has extremely high demands on his skills and works.
Perfectionism that borders on being “nitpicky”.
It would be fine if he didn't know, but since he knew that his work could be better, Mr. Mu couldn't settle for less.
……
After thinking for a while, I realized that I had said everything I wanted to say, "..."
Mu Tansong began to feel uncomfortable again.
He lowered his head, took the snack and stuffed it into his mouth.
Avoid the sight of the person in front of you.
……
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Mu."
Xiao Xiao's fingers gently stroked the carving in his hand.
He, Meishu, Ajiu and Abai.
If Feifei and Taotie could also be engraved, it would be complete.
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"I love so much."
“It’s really good.”
Mu Lao is a true craftsman.
It has precious craftsman qualities.
I am proud of my work and have a high sense of responsibility and pursuit.
That’s why I was so angry last time when I found out someone was using my work to cheat people.
……
When Mu Tansong heard Xiao Xiao praising Mu Lao and his wood carvings, he immediately resonated with the topic and his awkward mood disappeared.
"My dad will be happy to hear you."
Mu Tansong laughed.
The two things that make his father happiest are carving works that he is satisfied with and having his works recognized.
……
"Xiaosong?"
Grandma Xiao walked into the living room, and after seeing the people in the living room, she showed some surprise and surprise on her face, "Why are you here?"
"Are you alone?"
Is this the first time this child comes to the Xiao family by himself?
The old lady thought.
No wonder I found it so strange. "Come to see Xiaoxiao?"
The situation was clear, and the old lady looked at her grandson.
Then she saw the wood carving in her grandson's hand.
"This is……"
The old lady opened her eyes wide.
A face full of amazement.
"so beautiful!"
……
so beautiful……
Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes and looked at the wood carving in his hand.
This is indeed a work that can be described as beautiful or even pretty.
Compared with the previous wood carving, Mu Lao's skills have indeed made a breakthrough.
The wood-carved white plum blossom has five percent of the spirit of the real thing.
The white plum petals falling on the stone table are even more lifelike.
Especially the changes in the depth of the color of the stone table make people know at a glance that it is a sunny day.
The sunlight shines through the gaps between the branches of the white plum trees.
Leaving behind deep and shallow shadows of light.
……
Xiao Xiao handed the wood carving to his grandmother.
The old lady took it carefully.
The expression on his face was one of surprise and sigh.
He kept praising it.
"This is too pretty..."
"sharp……"
"This plum blossom looks just like the real thing..."
"Ajiu, Abaiye-"
"Hey!"
The old lady was stunned.
She looked at her grandson and said, "Xiaoxiao, do you have a wood carving similar to this one?"
……
"Ah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"It's a gift from Grandpa Mu."
……
"Yep."
The old lady suddenly exclaimed.
"It's a gift from Old Wood."
"Old Wood was very proud of his work at that time..."
“It’s said to be his breakthrough work.”
"..."
The old lady looked at Mu Tansong and asked, "Why did your father send another identical wooden sculpture?"
For a moment, the old lady suspected that the wood carving was the work of Mu Tansong.
But the next second, she rejected her idea.
That's an exaggeration.
How long has Xiaosong been learning wood carving from Lao Mu?
Have you caught up with Old Wood, or even surpassed him in such a short time?
She didn't quite believe it.
She still believed that the wood carving was made by Old Wood.
……
Mu Tansong was stunned when he was suddenly asked this question.
Ah, what’s the problem…?
Xiao Xiao raised the corner of his mouth.
"Grandma, do you still remember the wood carving Grandpa Mu gave me?"
……
Ok?
What did the wood sculpture look like before?
Since my grandson specifically asked this question...
The answer I had determined sounded a little unsure when I said it out loud.
“Isn’t it similar to this?”
The old lady didn't hesitate and asked her grandson for confirmation, "Really?"
……
"Yeah, almost."
Xiao Xiao frowned.
Then he pointed to a location.
"There's only one difference."
……
A little...different?
The old lady looked in the direction her grandson pointed.
This is……
Ah Bai?
This refers to Abai-
"what!"
The old lady looked surprised.
"Before, I thought Abai was a bracelet, and it was carved according to the shape of a bracelet..."
The old lady remembered all the details of that time.
"This……"
