Chapter 145: Qinglian Momei
Wu Duo called Wu Dazhi, but he didn't answer.
I guess something broke down in the widow's house······ Let's talk about it in the evening.
As soon as I hung up the phone, a call came. Wu Duo saw that it was the old landlord Xu Youren and Uncle Xu.
Xu Youren said that he wanted to warm the pot for him today and asked him if he was free at night.
Although it has been a few days since Wu Duo moved, Xu Youren said that he wanted to come, and there was no reason to refuse, and Wu Duo and Xu Youren have always gotten along very well, so they must be welcome.
When Xu Youren came, he brought a large piece of donkey ribs, a lot of meat, and after he came, he was busy and made a big pot of sauce donkey chops.
The smell fills the room.
It's just that the fertilizer doesn't like the smell very much, and shows a little dissatisfaction, so Wu Duo put it in the yard.
In the end, the donkey steak had to be grunted on a low fire for an hour, Wu Duo simmered rice in the rice cooker, poured tea in the living room, and put melon seeds and dried fruits on the table.
Xu Youren sat down and took a sip of tea, "Donkey meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground, you kid has a good mouth, today I see that this donkey steak is not bad, and I just happened to be free, so I came to warm the pot for you." ”
"It smells fragrant, thank you Uncle Xu. Wu Duo asked again, "Uncle Xu, why don't you find an old wife?"
"You're not looking, what are you looking for for an old man like me?"
"Who said I wouldn't look for it, I did!" Wu Duo said with a smile, "I moved to a new place, and I met a girl at the place where I bought meatloaf." ”
"Good boy, you rely on my place for bad feng shui, and you can't hand over peach blossom luck, right?"
"As far as the matter is concerned, how can you talk like this, old treacherous giant······ It's a lot of scheming!"
"I see that you look good, you must have done a lot of good things recently, and you seem to be a good mix in the antique shop. ”
"So-so. I can't compare to the holy hand of the apricot forest like you, I just enjoy myself. ”
"Poor. By the way, do you know how to draw?"
"Ancient paintings?"
"Well, it looks like. ”
"It can't be the person who gave you the jade plate last time, right······?
"It's not for me, it's for someone to sell. ”
Wu Duo listened, "I said Uncle Xu, are you going to be a part-time antique broker?"
"You kid, isn't it just in time to ask you!" Xu Youren took a sip of tea, "Didn't my house be rented out again when you left?" The tenant is a middle-aged couple from the countryside. My husband works as a cook at the West Third Ring Road construction site, and my wife works in a car wash not far from our community. The last time they went back to their hometown, they turned out such a painting. ”
"Uncle Xu, how big is the painting, has it been framed?"
"Not big. Xu Youren gestured with his hand, and it looked like it was no more than a foot horizontally and vertically, "I didn't frame it, but there was a side that seemed to have a little ayako." ”
"That's a painting from the original old mounting. Is there still such a painting in the countryside?
"That's right, there is a picture frame hanging in the hall of their house, which is printed by millions of heroes across the river, and it must be decades old. When I went back to clean this time, I accidentally fell and the glass in front of the frame shattered, and as a result, this painting was sandwiched between the printed painting and the back plate. It's Momei who paints it. ”
"Momei?"
"Yes, pure ink, no color. Didn't you bring Qizhou here this time, thinking that if it was a valuable ancient painting, it could also be exchanged for two dollars, and it was shown to me yesterday. ”
"Is there any payment?"
"Yes, it's written in small letters, and it's easy to recognize. Just a few words: Mr. Yuanzhang, Qinglian seems to be no. ”
"Where's the seal?"
"There are also, just below these words, Xiao Seal, it is not difficult to recognize, it should be the word 'Qinglian'. "Xu Youren has the foundation to read Chinese medicine books and knows traditional Chinese characters. Some small seals, knowing traditional characters, are not difficult to recognize. What's more, there is a small block inscription on this "Qinglian".
"Blue Lotus ······" Wu Duo groaned.
"If you want to talk about Qinglian, I know Li Bai! But this painting is unlikely to be Li Bai's, I haven't heard that Li Bai can also paint. Xu Youren said.
Wu Duo nodded, this really shouldn't be Li Bai's painting, but it has nothing to do with whether or not I've heard of Li Bai's painting. Even if Li Bai had painted, it would be impossible for him to make such a payment.
Mr. Yuanzhang, Qinglian seems to be no.
Obviously, this is "Qinglian" imitating the Momei of this "Yuanzhang" gentleman.
Moreover, as soon as he said Momei, Wu Duo immediately thought of Wang Yuanzhang.
Wang Mian, the character Yuan Zhang, a famous painter in the Yuan Dynasty, was poor in his early years and self-taught. The story of "the crown herding cattle" is widely spread among the people.
What Wang Mian is best at is Momei!
Don't let people praise the good color, only leave the clear air full of goodness.
Therefore, this "Qinglian" may be a painter of the same period in the Yuan Dynasty, and even listening to this tone, it seems that he is a little confidante······
Of course, it may also be a painter after the Yuan Dynasty, so it can be regarded as a kind of "divine friendship".
However, Wu Duo didn't see the painting, but speculated, "Uncle Xu, I'm quite interested, when will I go and see it?"
"It just so happens that they must be at home at night, let's just go together after eating!" Xu Youren said and took out his mobile phone and called out.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Youren said, "Okay." ”
"Uncle Xu, you are so positive, you are not afraid that people will not be able to pay the rent, right?"
"I'm afraid that they will run into profiteers!" Xu Youren said with a straight face, "I understand you kid, it's not so bad." ”
"Oops, it seems that character is very important!"
Subsequently, the two had dinner together. In addition to Xu Youren's donkey steak with sauce, Wu Duo took another cucumber, fried a sharp pepper egg, and opened a package of fried peanuts, which is also counted as four dishes.
The donkey steak made by Xu Youren is fragrant and rotten, and it is also seasoned with Chinese medicine, which is so delicious that Wu Duo gnawed his mouth full of oil.
After dinner, the two came to the chessboard garden. Wu Duo's hometown revisited, with a little emotion.
This middle-aged couple looked very honest, but when they saw that Wu Duo was so young, they still glanced at each other.
There is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm. I guess so.
Xu Youren hurriedly introduced, saying that Wu Duo worked in a very famous antique shop, don't look young, his eyesight is not weak, and he will not introduce unreliable people.
Wu Duo smiled and didn't say much.
The woman beckoned them to sit down, and the man went into the back room and closed the door, then opened the door and came out, holding a cylindrical incense stick in a paper shell.
The painting was rolled into a roll and placed in the incense tube.
When I took the painting out, it was stained with some incense foam.
After Wu Duo got started, he found that it was exactly as he thought, this painting must have been framed before, that is, the heart of the painting was cut out directly, except for what Xu Youren said, there was a little silk on the side, and there was also a frame at the back.
Judging from the remaining Ayako and the mounting behind it, the material and mounting skills are not weak, and it looks like old mounting, at least not the craftsmanship of these years.
Looking at the heart of the painting, the rice paper and pen and ink are also quite old.
It's just this law······ Wu Duo couldn't help frowning.
