Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner

Vol 2 Chapter 148: self-portrait

Latest website: Actually, it's not just Tangning, many people who like to paint, including most painters, have painted self-portraits, and they usually don't only paint one picture. This is because for painters, especially poor painters, the best and cheapest model to find is the self in the mirror, which is why painters generally look for female models, because male models are enough to have themselves... ...

In addition, for painters, the best diary is actually a self-portrait, because in different environments and emotions, the self is different, and it is much simpler and more vivid to record with a brush than with words.

Another point is that the self-portraits that painters can sell are basically fine products. After all, no one can paint themselves ugly and then show them back to others...

When he saw the self-portrait that Tangning had brought from the hotel while traveling in China, Hugo was a little surprised, "I didn't expect you to be a painter, Mr. Tangning. What a coincidence!"

Tangning waved her hands again and again, "I can't be called a painter, I just like to paint!"

Hugo took a closer look at the self-portrait, then glanced at Tangning again, frowned and said, "Mr. Tangning, this self-portrait of yours is the most special of all the self-portraits I've ever seen!"

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Tangning asked curiously.

Hugo considered it for a while, and then replied: "I don't know if my description is correct, but it gives me the feeling that you are not painting yourself in this self-portrait, but another person!"

Hearing Hugo say this, Tangning was shocked, because what he said was right, even though it had been more than ten years, Tangning still didn't recognize that this skin was her, and she was always in her heart. It's still the teenager before the time-travel, so it is reflected in the painting, and naturally there is this sense of separation, but why didn't you find this problem before?

But then I thought about it, why didn't I paint a portrait of myself before I crossed? That's the real self-portrait!

Thinking of this, Tangning suddenly had a very strong urge to create, but it was obviously not the right time, so Tangning forcibly suppressed it and asked, "It seems that Mr. Hugo, you know how to draw too!"

Hugo smiled and replied, "I, like you, like to draw a little, but I'm not as good as you!"

Hearing this, Tangning's heart moved and she said, "Mr. Hugo, can I ask for a reward?"

"What's the reward?" Hugo asked casually.

"A painting of yours!" Tangning pleaded with a raised finger.

I saw Hugo replied without hesitation: "No problem, I will also send you a self-portrait of mine!"

After returning to the hotel, Tangning showed off Hugo's portrait to the two women, "What do you think of this painting?"

Bai Min shook his head and said, "I don't know much about Western painting, so it's hard to comment!"

Heidi also added: "With my limited understanding of Western painting, this painting is very ordinary!"

"Maybe this painting is really ordinary, but the person who painted this painting is not ordinary!"

"Oh? Who painted this painting?" Heidi asked curiously.

Tangning pointed to the painting and replied, "It's the person in this painting, this is a self-portrait!"

"Self-portrait? But I don't know this person either!" Heidi said with a frown.

Tangning took out a copy of "Notre Dame de Paris" that she bought on the road and shook it in front of Heidi's eyes, then she couldn't help but exclaimed, "Oh my God! Tony, you, don't you mean that? This, this painting was painted by Mr. Hugo?"

Tangning replied proudly, "That's right, this is Mr. Hugo's self-portrait!" She then repeated her experience today.

"I didn't expect that the poor lady was actually Mr. Hugo's daughter!" Heidi sighed.

At this time, Bai Min asked inappropriately, "Uh, Tony, can I ask if Mr. Hugo is a famous writer?"

"It can't be described as very famous, it should be said to be very famous. I think about how to compare it. Basically, it is equivalent to your Chinese Ji Yun!" Tangning reluctantly found a reference.

"Oh, that's it!" Bai Min suddenly realized.

On the other side, Heidi joked: "Tony, why don't you just stay and marry Adele and become Mr. Hugo's son-in-law, what an honor!"

Tangning shook her head and said, "Forget it, I still prefer to be with you guys!" As she spoke, she hugged the two girls into her arms.

In fact, Tangning has been very busy these past few days, not only helping Hugo paint, but also taking time to see Scarlett. After this day of passion, Tangning frowned and complained to her, "I really didn't expect that you You and your sister are so cruel, they killed your brother-in-law!"

Scarlett replied disapprovingly, "There's nothing we can do about it. If we don't kill him, we'll be homeless. Can we go to New Orleans to join you?"

Tangning replied without hesitation, "It's absolutely fine. It just so happens that I have a newly built manor to marry you!"

Hearing Tangning say this, Scarlet sighed and said, "Tony, don't say this, or I will regret it even more!"

Then he changed the subject and asked, "By the way, how is Joanna now?"

"Very good, I'm teaching little Mike how to learn the piano." After speaking, Tangning added, "Uh, it's Caroline and I's child!"

"I didn't expect you to be so kind to a black slave's child!" Scarlett was a little surprised.

"Even if his mother is a black slave, he is still my child!" Tangning replied in a deep voice.

"You wouldn't want him to inherit your inheritance, would you?" Scarlett quipped.

Tangning explained, "I have agreed with Heidi on this point~www.wuxiamtl.com~ I will leave the Brazilian manor to little Mike!"

"Then if the two of us have a child, what will you leave him?" Scarlett asked again.

Tangning thought about it for a while, then replied, "We'll have to wait until we have a child before we think about it. After all, it's not there yet!"

"If you say that, then I have to hurry now, after all, your time in London is too short!" Scarlett took the initiative.

While Tangning complied, she said, "If you think your time in London is short, you can come to New Orleans to find me!"

PS: I recommend a copy of "Insurance in Progress" from the reality channel. Based on my previous experience in finance at Ping An Life, the author of this book must be an insider, but obviously he can't write online articles. This is from his The catalogue can be seen, but this does not affect the popular science and interestingness of this book. Friends who are interested in the insurance industry recommend it!
