[Episode 11]

[Qingshan Building]

Youqian, Xixi,

what brings you here?

We're here to see you.

Here you are.

Thank you for your gift.

We're mainly here to thank

you and your master.

How is your master's wound?

Don't worry. Nothing serious.

He went to Yuxin Studio today.

Well, come in, please.

Has Liu compensated you?

His money was already transferred.

There's no money in his account.

Well, Yuan, don't worry.

I'll return the money as soon as possible.

And I decide

not to start a business by myself.

I plan to find a job

and work steadily.

Do you really plan so?

Yes.

Let me tell you.

Several companies have invited him

to attend interviews.

Is he awesome?

You finally decide to turn over a new leaf.

Mr. Li,

make a final check carefully

to ensure the power supply is normal during the live stream.

Don't worry.

Well, clear the unnecessary articles behind.

We should ensure a high-quality scene

and thoughtful details.

The lamp...

I'll finish adjusting it right away.

You look handsome today.

Will you do live stream

personally today?

No.

Why not?

You haven't done live stream for a long time.

You can repair the "Vermilion Bamboo Painting"

you accepted lately.

I didn't bring it with me, so I can't do live stream.

Why didn't you bring it?

The repair of that painting is so simple.

It's just suitable for teaching of apprentices.

What do you mean by that?

Will you keep it

to teach Qiu Yuan?

Let me tell you.

A stray cat

has always come to our yard lately.

It's your apprentice who feeds it.

I recorded a video,

or she'll deny that by then.

Look.

Do I feed you secretly

every day?

Why did you still catch my master's fish?

If you do it again,

I'll drive you out.

I'll call you Lucky.

Go back with me.

Anything else?

Isn't it convincing?

Didn't you see

she carries the cat into our house?

You can't stop

a cat which comes irregularly.

It was of no use recording the video.

You should think how to protect the fish.

Uncle, you're biased.

You're not kind to me.

[Qingshan Building]

It's done.

Master,

I'm afraid that Lucky...

Oh, no. I'm afraid the cat catches your fish again,

so I asked Youqian

to take me to buy this

in the nearby building materials market.

This is called invisible gauze.

If you don't look carefully,

it can't be seen easily,

right?

But it's really ugly.

Have you finished your homework?

Let me check.

I've finished it.

Master,

the leftmost one is the hardest.

The rightmost one is the softest.

The middle three ones are from hard to soft.

Remember the hardness of the three ones in the middle.

Yes, I've kept it in my mind.

Come with me.

Okay.

The steps of repairing a painting

can be simply summarized as washing, tearing, complementing and optimization.

Removing the dust with a broad brush

is the first step, dedusting.

It's a preparatory step.

In this process,

you should know the to-be-repaired painting

very well in your heart.

Let's take this painting for example.

Look,

it has wormholes

and fissures.

The above-mentioned problems

are very serious.

So when handling,

you should try to avoid touching

these vulnerable parts.

Make a small pendant

like this

with dough.

See?

Touch the damaged parts with the dough pendant

carefully.

So the texture of dough is very important.

Yes.

Look, you should

remove these bubbles.

♫I stand with her side by side and say nothing♫

♫Forgetting a flashy life♫

Wet the broad brush

♫I take the brush to leave its elegance♫

and straighten it out.

♫Let me put aside my worries♫

♫I draw a picture of her stroke by stroke♫

Then

roll a towel

like this.

Have a try.

♫I take the brush to leave its elegance♫

Look carefully.

Move the towel in the way that we write the character "mi (rice)".

♫Let me put aside my worries♫

Can you see dirt?

Judge whether you wash the painting clean

by checking the water

wrung out from the towel.

Only when the water wrung out from the towel becomes clean,

can we stop washing it.

Master, how do you usually judge it?

Skill derives from practice.

Next

observe this painting.

See which materials

we should use

to repair it.

What's your opinion?

There's a little red here.

It's cinnabar, right?

I've completed the payment.

8,000 yuan was transferred into your Alipay account.

Only two pieces of unimpressive cinnabar

cost 8,000 yuan.

Unimpressive cinnabar?

It took me much time and energy

to find it.

Mr. Qin

is our old customer.

Or I would

sell it to other

at a double price.

Yes.

Sorry.

Old cinnabar is not easily found,

so it's naturally expensive.

Never mind.

Master, it's too expensive.

Must you buy it?

Yes.

The mixture of old cinnabar, gamboges and ink

is specially used for color supplementation of ancient paintings.

It's a kind

of essential repair materials.

It's too dear.

Zuo.

Sorry. Sorry.

Can't you see me?

You almost hit me. Do you know?

I'm in a hurry for a date.

-I didn't notice you. -You scared me out of my mind.

Are you alright?

Yes.

-Sorry. -Terribly sorry.

Why did you say sorry...

Sorry, sorry.

Terribly sorry.

He may have something urgent.

You go first.

Sorry. Terribly sorry.

Was I a bit rude to him?

No.

I saw ruder girls.

Why did you

invite me out today?

Let's have a walk around.

Okay, let's have a walk around.

Zuo,

you stayed abroad for so long.

What do you think the biggest difference

between Chinese girls and foreign girls is?

Nationality.

Be serious.

Well,

I think Chinese girls

are more approachable.

I also think so.

Well,

how many girlfriends did you date abroad?

I dated one girlfriend at university.

Then what happened?

Then,

then she went back to Europe.

We broke up.

That's good.

Well,

what kind of girls do you like now?

Do you like girls like me?

I like Qiu Yuan.

Then, then you should act.

I've acted,

but she hasn't prepared

to accept me.

You should have told me earlier.

I can help you.

I'm on good terms with her.

Very good.

They bullied you, a girl, together.

I hate such people most.

Well, my name is Liu Xuan.

May I have your name?

Zuo Huairen.

Do you also live here?

Yes.

What a small word!

I just like yuhuchun.

Since so,

I'll give it to you.

Liu Xuan.

Liu Xuan, you scared me.

It's raining heavily.

Why did you stand outside?

You may catch a cold.

Qiu Yuan,

why do you do this to me?

What, what's wrong with you?

What, what did I do?

Stop pretending.

I met Zuo Huairen today.

He told me he loves you.

Qiu Yuan,

I take you as my best friend

and chat with you without reserve.

But what did you do?

You know

Zuo Huairen loves you,

but you see me chasing him stupidly.

You must

have a good laugh at me.

I don't.

I also learned about it lately.

Shrimp.

I just don't know how to tell you about it.

I really don't laugh at you.

Sit down first.

I'll dry your hair first, okay?

If you get sick,

I'll feel guiltier.

You should feel guilty.

Zuo loves you.

You should feel sorry for me.

Liu Xuan,

I already refused him

clearly.

We're just childhood friends.

I never loved him,

nor will I fall in love with him in the future.

Why don't you love him?

He's such a nice man.

Do you have other man in your mind?

Do you?

Who's he?

I can't say.

Why not?

You know all my secrets.

Why can't you tell me one of your secrets?

I really can't say.

I've fallen in love with a man I shouldn't love.

A man you shouldn't love?

There's no right or wrong for love.

Why do you say that?

You've fallen in love with Zhiyuan?

Because...

Keep your voice down.

Um.

Though your love for him doesn't violate law,

it goes against

the master-apprentice ethnics.

Right?

No one cares about this

in the new era.

Tell me

whether you expressed your love for him.

Of course not.

I just want to learn how to repair cultural relics carefully.

And if

he knows...

If I tell him,

I'll be driven out.

Don't worry too much.

In fact,

in fact, it's easy

to win his love.

Well,

I'll help you win his love.

Stop it.

I just want to study hard now.

Put it aside first.

You coward.

I decided

to be solely responsible for it.

I'm forced to get your help?

Yes.

If I help you win his love,

I may have the chance

to be with Zuo Huairen.

By then,

he may realize

it's his biggest loss to refuse me

and go back to chase me actively.

Wish you success.

Our Love Pursuit Alliance has been officially established.

It has been established.

[Qingshan Building]

Time to get up.

Time to get up.

Get up.

The simplest way to attract the attention of the man

you've known for a long time

is to change your inherent image.

If you looked soft and cute,

now you should be sexy.

If you looked androgynous,

now you should behave like a lady.

In short, there should be a contrast.

In this case, you may impress him at the first sight.

You look best in this suit.

Let's go.

Go ahead.

Come on.

You dress in the same style as Liu Xuan.

I don't.

Your speech and behavior should be consistent with your clothing.

Be cool.

Morning.

Why do you dress like this?

Aren't you afraid that mosquitoes bite you?

No, I am not.

If so, go to cook.

It's strange.

Why?

According to my experience,

people in love

may change their images deliberately.

No wonder you're well dressed every day.

You don't know it.

Why don't I know it?

It's because of Zuo Huairen.

It's impossible.

I'll be the most charming girl

when I dress like so in normal times.

What's the problem?

It seems that we can only try the second way.

Master.

We're going out.

I already finished today's homework.

Will you go disco dancing?

Yes.

Staying up late may lead to baldness.

Come home early.

Little Qiu Yuan,

they're all your favorite snacks.

You're actually asleep.

Well,

I'm so sleepy.

Indeed.

The way of increasing his interest

may not be suitable for him.

I gave up.

I gave up.

I go disco dancing at night

and have class in the daytime every day.

There're puffier and puffier skin

under my eyes.

No.

To win your true love,

you can't give up

so easily.

I'm sleepy.

Let's change our way.

We won't go disco dancing.

We just stay home.

At home,

you should treat him warmly sometimes and coldly sometimes.

You may cater to his pleasure sometimes

and treat him coldly sometimes,

so that he can't fathom you out.

Qiu Yuan,

the music you're playing

sounds awful.

Stop it. Stop it.

Stop it.

It's time for lunch.

I don't want to have lunch.

I fling myself into repair learning.

Eat yourself.

When do you become so assiduous?

I've always worked assiduously.

Then practice washing the painting first.

You can't go to rest

until the water wrung out from the towel becomes clean.

Okay.

Have you finished it?

Yes.

Where is my rice?

You ate it up?

It has passed the lunch time.

Wait for the dinner.

Zhiyuan is so cruel.

His teaching style is like his mom's.

Back then, his mom

was very strict with me.

But they do this

for our own good.

We should prepare ourselves well for bigger tasks ahead.

Having tried different ways these days, I'm still his apprentice.

Calm down. Calm down.

Let me think.

I think

you can't keep working hard and comporting yourself

in the field Zhiyuan is good at.

In that case, you'll be inferior to him.

You'd better comport yourself in a field you're good at.

Think about the fields

you're good at.

It looks good.

Not bad.

I don't think

there's old cinnabar here.

There're secondhand slippers,

let alone old cinnabar.

Try to observe

and find out the articles you like.

Boss,

how much is this?

200 yuan. It's the most favorable price.

20 yuan.

Stop kidding.

Miss, look.

My magnifier is of high quality.

I'll give you 20 yuan. If you can't accept it, I'll leave.

Okay, okay.

Take it. Take it.

Hurry up to scan my QR payment code,

or I'll regret.

Okay. It has been transferred into your account.

Would you like to buy some books?

Isn't this "Collection of Essays"?

"Collection of Essays"?

How much are they?

60 yuan.

How about 20 yuan?

No.

I'll give you 20 yuan. If you can't accept it, I'll leave.

Okay.

You're good at bargaining.

Take them.

You're a good learner.

Boss,

how much are they?

10 yuan

per one.

I'll give you 10 yuan to buy five ones, okay?

No.

I'll lose money.

If so, I won't buy these, either.

So expensive.

Let's go.

Okay, okay, okay.

Take them.

You're really

good at bargaining.

Well.

Pay me. Pay me now.

Thank you, boss.

♫I take up a brush to paint its prime of life♫

Qiu Yuan,

there's really old cinnabar.

I didn't cheat you.

It's really old cinnabar.

Control yourself.

Calm down.

Hello.

How much is it?

50 yuan per piece.

50 yuan.

Can I have both with 50 yuan?

50 yuan per piece.

It's almost your closing time,

so can you give us a discount?

Okay.

Scan my QR payment code.

Okay.

It's of high quality.

Thanks to me,

you can save nearly 20,000 yuan.

It's not enough.

Let's look around for a bit longer.

It's late.

The shops will close here.

That shop hasn't closed yet.

♫I take the brush to leave its elegance♫

♫Having the dirt washed away, the vicissitudes of life become pure♫

♫Let me put aside my worries♫

♫I draw a picture of her stroke by stroke♫

♫I take the brush to leave prosperous days♫

Well,

is it old cinnabar?

♫I paint with a bamboo hairpin on paper♫

[Old Street Junk Market] ♫To set off her cheeks♫

Qiu Yuan,

you said you're familiar with this place.

Why didn't you know

the off-the-line time of buses?

I didn't meet

such circumstances.

I can't drive it.

I already expected it.

Don't drag my collar, okay?

Master, slowly.

I can't slow down.

We're sitting on it.

Its highest speed is less than 50km/h.

We're just moving slowly.

Mind the direction.

You've almost choked me.

Loosen my collar.

Master.

Slow down, okay?

It's not fast at all.

If I drive very slowly, I can't keep balance.

Put your hands here.

No.

Liu Xuan asked me

to be restrained

and reserved.

No need. No need.

I can put my hands behind.

I mean you can grab the clothes around my waist.

Don't think that much.

Don't have improper thought

on me.

Heard?

I don't have any improper thought on you.

Master,

I just regard you

as an elder like my second uncle.

My second uncle is Luo Youqian's dad.

No.

I allow you to put your arms around my waist.

No.

I order you to do that.

Put your arms around my waist.

I refuse.

Master, slowly.

So

did you really

tear Zhiyuan's clothes?

Yes.

You asked me

to be restrained.

Good.

You may often

take him

to various farm product markets,

building materials markets,

wholesale markets

and those rural-urban fringe zones.

Maybe

your romance

will start from there.

You...

I'm also a fashionable and exquisite girl.

Okay?

Don't flatter yourself.

The crescent appears tonight.

I'll help you

light a love candle

and make a wish later.

In this case,

your relationship can go smoothly.

Well,

I can use 20 yuan to buy a box of candles you use

in the junk market.

Bah.

Be pious, or your wish can't come true.

Take it back quickly.

Take it back quickly.

Say "bah".

Say it now.

Will you say it?

Bah...

Xuanxuan,

where are you going?

I'll go shopping in the supermarket.

I'll drive you there.

No, thanks.

I called a car.

Xuanxuan,

bring a bottle of water.

It's hot now.

There's water in the car.

Then I'll get you an umbrella.

It's going to rain.

Gao Shuo.

Here.

In fact, I should say sorry to you.

I know you've been kind to me.

Xuanxuan,

don't be so polite.

To save your face,

I haven't directly refused your kindness to me.

I was refused by other man

lately.

After a good cry, I realize

if I had known

he doesn't have me

in his heart earlier,

I might not have felt so grieved

and done silly things.

Did Zuo refuse you directly?

No.

He's a nice man.

I think

his direct refusal

minimizes the hurt to me.

Right?

So, Gao Shuo...

Xuanxuan,

I've got what you mean.

You already made it clear.

Go.

Get in.

Sorry.

Don't say sorry.

No need to say sorry to me.

It's good

for both of us.

Go.

Zuo Huairen,

come with me.

Look at Xuanxuan.

Look carefully.

She's

such a kind, warm and lovely girl.

Why did you hurt her?

If you don't love her,

you can give her hints

and alienate her slowly.

Why did you refuse her

directly?

You don't date another girl

as you have Qiu Yuan in your heart.

Xuanxuan thinks highly of you.

But have you ever thought of my feeling?

Do you meet me for Xuanxuan's matter?

Yes.

What's wrong with Liu Xuan?

She's fine.

If she had an accident,

I would have beaten you.

Let me sort it out.

I didn't mean to hurt her.

But it's also improper

to let her

have hope, right?

I've figured out

two ways for you.

First, if you still

have a little feeling for her,

be kind to her.

She's really a good girl.

She deserves your love.

I know she's a good girl.

I do know it.

But there's no right or wrong

for love, right?

Then put her on the blacklist.

Since you're so firm about it,

cut off all your connections with her.

Or she'll still

enter your Moments.

That's too childish.

Love is originally childish.

Listen.

Will you put her on your blacklist?

Will you?

Okay.

Don't forget it.

What?

Don't sit down.

Come and look carefully.

Now I'm tearing off

the backing paper and the life paper.

Generally, the backing paper is composed of two layers of paper.

It's very thick

and hard to be torn off.

But the life paper is different.

It's generally a sheet of rice paper.

And the ancient life paper advocated thinness.

With a long history,

it's very hard to be torn off.

Look.

The paste is very thick

on such soft and rotten places,

so it'll take much time to tear off the backing paper and the life paper.

Look carefully.

We may rub on the painting

with our fingers or tweezers

to slightly break the life paper and painting core.

Then we can tear them off slowly.

Look.

Do like this.

If you tear off

a little fiber of the painting core

carelessly,

you should level it in time.

In case of such petty holes,

you may repair them gently with a brush dipped in water.

Would you like to have tea?

I'll pour you a cup of tea.

Quickly.

Look carefully and keep it in your mind.

I'll test you tomorrow.

I've kept it in my mind.

Life paper tearing

is the most important part of ancient paintings' repair,

so you should work slowly, carefully

and patiently.

I'll tear them for a while.

You go first.

It doesn't matter.

I'm with you.

You've blocked the light.

I think

he's moodier than women.

We came home happily

by motorcycle yesterday.

But he asked me to leave as he thought I blocked his light.

Really?

I already lighted

a love candle for you.

I see.

It must be because you spoke ill of the love candle

and the candle heard it,

so it punished you on purpose.

Stop kidding, okay?

Am I right?

Stop it.

Let me tell you.

I watched a short video

of an Internet celebrity lately.

What he said sounds reasonable.

He said girls shouldn't

always act passively.

We may date men

actively at times.

In this case, we can have room for maneuver.

What does it mean?

Stupid girl.

For example,

you send a message to a man

and ask him whether he has had a meal.

If he answers yes,

then you can

ignore him

for a week.

Do you think he'll be at a loss what to do?

Yes.

Right?

So you may

send Zhiyuan a message

to date him actively.

Then I can stand him up?

Can't,

can't you be creative and flexible?

If you stand him up,

he won't

let you go easily.

Then what can I do?

You may

come a bit late

and let him wait for you.

When he almost loses patience,

you can appear before him

with a pink cotton candy in your hand.

Seeing such a lovely girl

goes to buy a pink cotton candy for him,

he'll calm down

and be moved by you.

Qiu Yuan.

Sorry,

I'm late.

You finally came.

Why did you come late?

I went to buy you a cotton candy.

Many people queued up there.

I won't blame you.

Really?

Yes, of course.

But how can I date him successfully?

It'll be embarrassing

if he refuses me.

This is

a question.

Be free.

I'll ask him out for you.

The weather is very nice today.

Tell me what you want me to do.

Zhiyuan,

I made a mistake today.

What's wrong again?

I agreed to go out

with Qiu Yuan,

but I have to deal with something else now.

So I can't go out with her.

So?

So Qiu Yuan have to go alone.

Think about it.

She rarely gets a day off.

She wanted to go out, but I stand her up.

I feel

so sorry.

Zhiyuan,

can you go out with her?

Why should I go out with her?

If you go, she'll be happy.

How do you know that?

She told me it.

Surely I know.

Zhiyuan,

you're her master.

You're closest to her

in Qingshan Building, right?

I need to first go to Yuxin Studio.

Send me the time and address.

Okay.

My God.

Lucky.

He agreed to go out with me.

My God.

He agreed to go out with me.

Sweetheart Lucky.

Dance with me.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Hi, Zhiyuan.

Hi, Zhiyuan.

Hi, hi, hi, Zhiyuan.

I need to feed myself now.

Or my stomach will growl

when we date.

Be good.

What can I eat?

Boss,

won't you go to Yuxin Studio?

I have something to deal with.

Liu Xuan,

is it cold to wear a dress today?

It's up to you.

Why do you keep silent today?

Qiu Yuan,

check Zuo Huairen's Moments.

I can't see any messages about him.

Did he put me on his blacklist?

Impossible.

Shrimp doesn't

do such childish things.

He did put me on his blacklist.

Why are you so nervous?

This could help you forget him as soon as possible.

Isn't that great?

What did you do?

"From Repair to Pair" -

"Craftsmen's Love-How to Make a Vermilion Inkpad by Ancient Method"

Today, let's learn how to make an inkpad with cinnabar.

[Liquor, Cinnabar granules] First, pour liquor into the container with cinnabar granules

[Mix liquor and cinnabar granules slightly] and mix them slightly

[Clean the oxides on the cinnabar surface] to clean the oxides on the cinnabar surface.

When the liquor turns light red

and red fat floats on the surface of liquor,

[Red fat] it shows the cleaning is completed.

[Grind the Arabic gum into powder] Then grind the Arabic gum into powder

and mix it with water

[Glue] to make glue.

Mix it with the cleaned cinnabar and grind it repeatedly.

[Cinnabar, Water, Rinse and settle the ground cinnabar with water] Rinse and settle the ground cinnabar with water.

Then use filter paper to filter,

dry the filtered cinnabar powder,

[Castor oil] take it off and mash it gently, then add castor oil.

Stir with a scraper to form cinnabar oil sludge.

Finally, add a small amount of wormwood several times.

Mix it into a ball with a scraper and then put it into a mortar to beat repeatedly.

So our inkpad is finished.
