Setting aside the matter of the swap for the time being, she began to admire the works and chat with Li Shi.
Li Shi was naturally delighted to share his understanding of calligraphy creation with her.
Conversing with peers not only provides learning opportunities but also serves as a sound method of teaching.
The elderly lady was a rather traditional calligrapher, with high practical skills in calligraphy and rather average theoretical knowledge. However, given her overall skill level, her understanding of calligraphy was much better than He Ya Ru. She was able to grasp the gist of the advanced concepts Li Shi mentioned— she generally knew what he was talking about.
The more this was the case, the more the old lady was shocked by the heights to which Li Shi had advanced in his study and practice of calligraphy!
