Jian Qingqing was speechless.
Ming Zhiyan could not help but laugh out loud.
Looking at Ming Zhiyan’s handsome face, Jian Qingqing’s heart skipped a beat.
She asked the vendor, “Boss, can I use these materials of yours? Don’t worry,
I’ll pay.”
The Boss was a little unwilling at first, but when he heard that she was going to pay, he immediately smiled and said, “Sure, Miss, you can use them as you like. I’m not saying it, but you’ll know once you try it. This thing isn’t that easy to pinch. I’ve already made it look like yours.”
Jian Qingqing did not know why this Boss had not been beaten up even after setting up his stall for so long. Could it be that the people of this era all liked this kind of abstract appearance?
She handed everything in her hands to Ming Zhiyan, then squatted down to pick up a piece of clay.
She was very quick with her hands. Before long, she had made a human shape, and then it was the details of the knife carving.
On the busy street, Ming Zhiyan quietly watched Jian Qingqing squatting on the stall, her mind undistracted as she carefully carved the clay figure’s face with the carving knife. The bright yellow candlelight on the stall lit up her face.
At this moment, Ming Zhiyan suddenly felt an incomparable peace in his heart.
After carving the facial features with the small knife, she still had to carve the hair and clothes. The hair was easier to carve, but the clothes were more difficult. In addition to carving the outline of the clothes, she also had to carve the decoration, therefore, this clay figurine, Jian Qingqing, took about 25 minutes to complete.
The stall owner was originally looking at her with contempt, wanting to see her make a fool of herself and let her know that clay figurine was not easy to make. However, the more he looked at her, the more shocked he was. After Jian Qingqing finally finished making it, the expression on his face changed from contempt to admiration.
“Missy you are really amazing! I was blind just now. I am really sorry. How about this, I will not take your money for that one just now.”
Jian Qingqing smiled and handed over the money for the two clay figurines to him. It was not easy for everyone, and she did not lack this bit of money now.
Seeing how generous she was, the Boss smiled until his eyes could not be seen. When they were about to leave, he even broke off a large piece of clay and gave it to Jian Qingqing. “Miss, take it. Your craftsmanship is so good. Take this bit of clay back and play with it.”
Jian Qingqing smiled and accepted it. She held the clay figurines in one hand and a large piece of clay in the other. She said to Ming Zhiyan, “Let’s go.” Ming Zhiyan grunted and followed behind her.
Jian Qingqing held the clay figurine and looked left and right. She sighed. “It would be great if there was paint.”
Ming Zhiyan only then noticed what she was holding in her hand. He had only been looking at her.
He was stunned and said in surprise, “This is…”
That’s right. Jian Qingqing was holding Ming Zhiyan in her hand. His facial features were magnified like a real person. He was handsome and lifelike. The clothes on his body were elegant, but there was no color. Otherwise, it would be the same as the real one.
Jian Qingqing handed the clay figurine to him and smiled. “Here, this is for you.”
Ming Zhiyan did not expect Jian Qingqing to hold a clay figurine like his. He was surprised for a while before taking it. He lowered his eyes and looked at the bright and beautiful girl in front of her, and thanked her emotionally.
“You’re welcome! But if you have the paint, it will look better.”
Ming Zhiyan shook his head and smiled. “This is good.”
He looked at the other piece of clay in Jian Qingqings hand and said, “Give me that.”
Jian Qingqing did not think much of it. She took her lantern and gave the clay to him. This clay was wrapped with a big leaf.
Ming Zhiyan kept his clay figurine and took the clay out of the leaf..
