"Really?" Amber looked at the man with unblinking eyes.
The man nodded, "Really, don't believe in handing it over to me?"
Amber didn't say anything, just handed over the carving knife.
The man took it, took two steps forward, stood where she just stood, picked up the pumpkin she carved like mud, and carefully surveyed it, as if he was measuring first towards where it was better to get down and improve.
Amber did not know the man's intentions, looking at the man holding the carving knife and her carved bad pumpkin motionless, thought the man finally found things are not as simple and easy as he said at first, was about to open his mouth to laugh at the man said big words were hit in the face, saw the man suddenly moved.
The man's long fingers holding the carving knife, is carving the pumpkin one at a time, the speed is quite fast, it does not look like a novice, but a teacher with years of carving experience.
Amber's red lips opened slightly in surprise, "You're so skilled, when did you know how to carve? You didn't learn food carving by the way when you learned how to cook, did you?"
Food carving, after all, is also part of the culinary arts.
However, few people will learn, but basically have the dream of being a hotel chef or a chef of some fine restaurants will go to learn.
Only in such a position can food conditioning come in handy.
And the general chef of the small restaurant, will be the basic home cooking, home cooking, there will be no complex food carving ah.
Although Jared has been learning to cook recently, he has been learning to prepare home-cooked meals, not those big, sophisticated dishes.
So, it is impossible for her not to be surprised that he would eat a carving.
"Didn't learn." Surprisingly, Jared's answer, actually, was that he hadn't learned it.
Amber was surprised to walk up to him, looking at the movements in his hands, her expression became even more surprised, "Never learned? Then how did you know how to do it? And it looks so skilled!"
Jared seriously carved something in his hand, did not look up, only laughed lightly back, "learned sculpture for a while in high school."
"Sculpture?"
"Hmm." Jared raised his chin slightly, "That time grandmother's birthday, want to send a special gift, but do not know what to send, behind Ben suggested that I send a statue of Goddess."
"Oh, I see." Amber clapped her hands, "Grandmother believes in Buddhism, it's indeed appropriate to give a Guanyin statue."
Jared let out a sound, "Good, but grandmother has many statues of the Goddess of Mercy, those statues of Mercy are all from the heads of major carvers, if I send another statue of the Goddess of Mercy carved by one of those carvers, to grandmother, it is just one more identical statue, there is no too rare feeling."
"So, you took up sculpture specifically so that your grandmother could see the statue of the Goddess of Mercy and have a glimpse of it?" Amber stroked her chin and guessed.
Jared hooked his lips, "almost, in addition, at that time because of the heart condition, I can not do a lot of things, feel like an invalid, such a gap, so I even appeared manic rage anorexia symptoms, and learning sculpture, in addition to want to give my grandmother a gift, but also considered to let myself cultivate it, sculpture requires a great deal of patience and Sculpture requires great patience and care, if the mind is not good, simply can not learn."
"That is, if you hadn't studied sculpture, you would have put a greater burden on your heart because of the crankiness, to the point where it's possible that your heart, wouldn't even be able to support a heart replacement?" Amber asked, biting her lip.
Jared nodded, "That's right."
Amber's heart contracted violently, then she stepped back behind him and hugged him from behind, resting her head on his toned back.
