Wenxing Jushi looked at the sky, "The old man doesn't come with you, it's noon now, and I've eaten first." Let's talk about that. ”

Chen Chen nodded respectfully.

Xu Qing beckoned Chen Chen to sit down as if he had come to his own house, and then went to the kitchen to help the woman serve the food very naturally, as if he was accustomed to this.

The lunch of Wenxing Jushi's family is mainly light, and the food is all self-grown vegetables and self-fed chickens. Coupled with the woman's good cooking skills, Chen Chen and Xu Qing both had a round belly.

After eating and resting for a while, Wenxing Jushi took Chen Chen and Xu Qing to the workshop. The workshop is about the size of two bedrooms, and the décor is simple and elegant, but it is well equipped.

On the left side of the study is a workbench for making inkstones, and on the right is a simple study. There is a mahogany desk, and behind it is a bookcase densely packed with books. Most of these books are subsets of scriptures and histories, poems and songs, and the like.

Wenxing Jushi took out a piece of rice paper from the drawer, and Chen Chen understood that this was to test his own calligraphy, and his heart was relieved. Calligraphy or something, he has a lot of practice on weekdays, so he is naturally not afraid.

"The first test is that I believe you already know it. As the saying goes: Seeing words is like seeing people. I don't want every inkstone I make to be used by people with bad intentions. There is ink on the side, you can choose it yourself. ”

Wenxing Jushi stood beside him, and the assessment began at this time, and he couldn't take his eyes off how Chen Chen selected ink blocks, how he used to study ink, and how to choose a suitable brush. Before Chen Chen could start writing, Wenxing Jushi had already guessed what kind of font Chen Chen planned to write from the gesture of moving the pen and the way he selected the four treasures of the study. The previous operation Wenxing Jushi gave full marks, and the next thing to see if Chen Chen was a showman or a real skill.

Chen Chen picked up the brush and dipped it in the inkstone, waited until the ink soaked to a suitable degree, paused slightly, and then waved it like a cloud. The pen walks the dragon and snake, the momentum is blazing, the pen is put down, and it is done in one go.

Xu Qing stood next to him and was amazed, he didn't expect Chen Chen's handwriting to be so good, and when he thought of his hairpin flower Xiaokai before, he felt like he was getting an axe.

"Please also invite Wenxing monks to taste!" Chen Chen said with an elegant smile.

There is a smug look in his eyes, because of the recent incident of "The New Biography of King Lanling", I haven't practiced for a while, but I didn't expect to play so well today. Looking at the words on the paper, Chen Chen felt very satisfied.

Wenxing walked behind the desk, looked at the words on the paper, touched his beard, and nodded incessantly, "Okay, good! Founder is dense, majestic and round, and it is really like a person. You're a good kid, you've passed this level. ”

The affirmation and praise of the idol rarely made Chen Chen smile. Chen Chen has always been a gentle and elegant person, always smiling, always looking strategic, calm and calm, but it also makes people feel very distant. Except for Bai Shiyao's matter, it was difficult for everyone else to make him show more expressions.

Wenxing touched his beard and looked at the beautiful scene outside the window, "At the second level, I ask you to paint a picture with the theme of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and ask the scenery in the painting to reflect the four seasons, but also blend together without any sense of disobedience. I'll give you half an hour. ”

Chen Chen and Xu Qing glanced at each other, and their eyes were a little surprised. Xu Qing glared at Wenxing Jushi a little anxiously, as if he was talking about how not to play cards according to the routine.

Wenxing touched his beard proudly, Xu girl, do you think the old man still doesn't know you. He must have told Chen Chen all the ways of the test early in the morning. Forget the first level, don't try to get through the second level.

Wenxing's eyes could not escape Chen Chen's eyes, and those little tricks of him and Xu Qing definitely couldn't escape his eyes, so he temporarily changed the test topic.

Chen Chen frowned slightly, bowed his head and pondered. The second question seems simple, but it is actually difficult. The simplicity lies in the depiction of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the difficulty lies in how to arrange them in a scene.

He had no clue how to behave in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Xu Qing was also a little worried on the side, Uncle Wen had never taken this question before, if he guessed well, it must have been temporarily changed because of Chen Chen. She glanced at Chen Chen with some apologetic feelings, as if she was clever and made him fall into distress.

After thinking about it in his mind for a while, Chen Chen still didn't know how to behave. Time is already very tight, and if you don't start, it may be too late. Gritting his teeth, Chen Chen picked up his pen and painted. This time he planned to try it out, it was better than a blank piece of paper.

Half an hour passed, and Wenxing looked at his watch, "It's time!"

Chen Chen just finished painting and wiped the sweat from his head. Fortunately, it was completed on time, but I don't know if Wenxing Jushi recognizes it.

Wenxing Jushi looked at Chen Chen's paintings and said nothing. He was silent, and Chen Chen had no bottom in his heart. In such a short period of time, coupled with the fact that he forcibly picked up the pen without a clue, although the drawing was good, he finally took advantage of the loophole.

Wenxing Jushi didn't comment on half a word after reading it for a long time, Xu Qing's heart couldn't help but mention, could it be that Chen Chen's painting was not good, so he hurried over and took a look. Xu Qing looked at it for a long time and felt that Chen Chen's painting was quite good.

Seeing that time passed little by little, Wenxing still did not speak. Chen Chen's heart sank to the bottom, is it still not good?

"Uncle Wen, have you ever had a life, can you give me a word?" Xu Qing was a little anxious for Chen Chen, she also hoped to get closer to Chen Chen through this help, so that she could get more information about Bai Shiyao from him, and maybe they could join forces.

"Why are you so impatient this time. Wenxing Jushi raised his head and glanced at Xu Qing angrily, faced Chen Chen, and said seriously: "Although you are suspected of tricking this question, I didn't make it clear at the beginning. So you've passed this level. ”

When Chen Chen heard this, he was overjoyed, "Thank you Wenxing Jushi!"

Hearing Uncle Wen's words, Xu Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief. I touched my violently beating heart, it was so dangerous, and I finally passed.

In this portrait, Chen Chen depicts a scene from a different country and the same time period to show the four seasons. When spring is just beginning in the north, it is already in the middle of summer in the south, the distant Arctic Ocean is still full of ice and snow, and of course there are countries in autumn. In fact, it is to take advantage of regional differences to show the four seasons, so it is a trick.

Either way, just pass. If you can get Xue's investment, the plight of the "white owl" can also be solved, and I don't know what happened to Shi Yao and Qianyu in the magic capital.

As soon as he got the inkstone, he immediately went straight to the Xue Mansion.

"The third question is very simple, as long as you pass, you can choose any inkstone. Wenxing looked at Chen Chen thoughtfully, his eyes were a little playful and naughty, revealing the prank of an old naughty boy.

Sensing Wenxing's eyes, Chen Chen frowned, he always had a hunch that the next test would definitely not be simple.

Perhaps noticing that his eyes were a little too enthusiastic, Wenxing Jushi pretended to retract his gaze and continued: "The third test is chatting. Whatever you want, until I'm satisfied. ”

"Uncle Wen, aren't you cheating? There is no test question called a test," Xu Qing glanced at Chen Chen a little anxiously, and immediately protested: "And how do we know what to do before you are satisfied." If you are not satisfied with what he does, won't we just work in vain? We don't agree to this test! Chen Chen, you said yes?"

Chen Chen didn't speak, just frowned and wondered what the purpose of Wenxing Jushi was to come out of this test. Judging from the test just now, he shouldn't be deliberately playing tricks. If you don't want to sell inkstones, the other party can say it directly. So what is his purpose in asking this question?

The inkstone is related to the life and death of the "white owl", and he must get it. Despite his resourcefulness, he still couldn't figure out the meaning behind this nonsensical ordeal. In that case, I simply don't want to. In order to respond to all changes, first see what tricks the other party is playing.

"Okay, I promise you. Chen Chen put on a posture of breaking the boat, "Mr. Wen, what are we talking about?"

A hint of appreciation flashed in Wenxing's eyes, and he instructed Xu Qing next to him: "Sit down first, Xu girl, you go and help us make a pot of tea." Waiting until Xu Qing left, Wenxing Jushi spoke, "What is your relationship with Xu Yatou?"

"Our company and theirs are the same owner. Chen Chen replied.

Wenxing Jushi seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and asked again, "That's it, you have no other relationship?"

Chen Chen shook his head firmly, for Xu Qing, Wenxing Jushi is equivalent to an elder, and he must not be misunderstood, "I have someone I like, and Miss Xu and I have only just met." This inkstone is too important to me, so I had to ask Miss Xu for it. ”

Wenxing Jushi was a little disappointed, he originally liked Chen Chen very much, this was also the first time Xu Yatou brought someone over, and he thought that the two had something to do with him. Since Chen Chen has someone he likes, he can't force it.

He sighed helplessly, Xu Yatou is also a poor person.

Since she was a child, she was not liked by her father, and her only mother never really cared about her in order to compete for favor. After being adopted by his friend Old Man Xiao, he was even more miserable, becoming a walking corpse with a false mask. Thinking of that stubborn old man like a stinky pit, Wenxing Jushi itched his teeth, if it weren't for his stubbornness, how could Meiling run away from home, and now for so many years, there is no news.

Xu Qing, this girl, is not bad in nature. is growing up next to that old man, a little insecure, it is inevitable to use some means in order to keep the current things, and only in front of him and the old wife will show his true temperament. glanced at Chen Chen, it was a pity, this young man was very good, gentle as jade, tolerant and generous, in fact, it was very suitable for Xu Yatou, but unfortunately he already had a girlfriend.

"You're good, kid. The third level has also passed, and the inkstone on the table over there, you can choose one and take it away. Wenxing Jushi pointed nonchalantly.

"Thank you Jushi, I'll choose this side, how much is it?" Chen Chen picked and picked excitedly, almost dazzled, although the inkstones on the table were not as good as those made of top materials, but they were exquisite and chic, and it was the most suitable for Xue Litou.

"The vision is good, this inkstone is 5,000 yuan, you can take it. Wenxing Jushi sighed when he had something, how could such a good baby have a girlfriend?

If Wenxing knew that Chen Chen didn't have a girlfriend, he would definitely try to match the two of them.

It's a pity that he doesn't know that there is a kind of love in this world that is very tangled, that is, she loves him, he loves her, and she loves him.
