他的妹妹美正笑盈盈地招呼他,家人们在身后议论纷纷。
His younger sister Mei was cheerfully calling out to him, and the family was chatting in the background.

我们走走吧。

”李伟点点头,跟着她走进了一个安静的展厅。
Li Wei nodded and followed her into a quiet exhibition hall.
墙上挂的画让李伟想起小时候和奶奶一起画画的时光,那时他就梦想成为一个画家。
The paintings on the walls reminded him of the times he used to draw with his grandmother as a child, when he dreamed of becoming a painter.
走了一会儿,李伟停下脚步,说:“奶奶,我真的很热爱画画。
After walking for a while, Li Wei stopped and said, "Grandma, I really love painting.
能给您看看我的画吗?
Can I show you my paintings?"

我看到你用心去画,把你对生活的理解都画出来了。
I can see that you put your heart into painting, expressing your understanding of life."
”李伟感到一丝轻松,但又有些惊讶。
Li Wei felt a bit relieved but also surprised.
接下来的聚会中,家人们围着李伟,看他的作品。
During the gathering that followed, the family gathered around Li Wei to look at his work.
他深吸一口气,把画作展示给他们。
He took a deep breath and presented his paintings to them.
他不知道大家会有什么反应,却知道这是自己的机会。
He wasn't sure how they would react, but he knew this was his opportunity.
出乎意料的是,张奶奶率先拍了拍手:“李伟,你很有才华。

我为你感到骄傲。
I am proud of you."
”其他家人也纷纷赞同,称赞他的努力和天赋。
