Chapter 166: Do it first for respect
"Since Xi Lao is talking about betting, I don't know what you want to bet?" Zhong Yue smiled.
"Courage. "When I met an ordinary junior, I guess I hurriedly pushed it off at this time, and I didn't dare to show off. Zhong Yue doesn't giggle with you, since he wants to test, then he just wants to be straightforward, which can be regarded as a rare exchange.
Xi Qichang said: "Just now when we were discussing cursive writing, we mentioned the law of cursive writing. Today's cursive collection is the master of Yu Youren, who can be called the saint of modern calligraphy. ”
"Not bad. Yu Lao's contribution to the calligraphy industry, not under Wang Xizhi and Yan Zhenqing, opened up the Wei monument and the grass, and opened up the pioneer of the grass of our generation. What we just discussed is the standard cursive advocated by Yu Gong, I heard Kaishan say that you are good at lacquer calligraphy, and the foundation must not be bad, what do you think of the law of this standard cursive?"
Ouyang Kaishan smiled and relieved Zhong Yue: "A few people, since they all said that Zhong Yueli and Kai skills are not bad, but they ask cursive questions, isn't it difficult for strong people, and they also ask such open and difficult questions, let's change it." ”
"Well, we're just talking about calligraphy literacy. If it makes sense, we lose, and if it doesn't make sense, stay for a while, Zhong Yue, you will punish yourself with three cups. ”
As soon as he heard that it was a half-joking bet, Zhong Yue stopped twisting and twisting.
On the side, Ou Yangming came over with wine, and was very unhappy that these celebrities in the calligraphy world gathered around a nobody, so he said sourly: "Old Xi, what are you not doing with an uninformed junior?"
These words sounded like helping Zhong Yue, but he still looked down on Zhong Yue in his bones.
"Well, you can't say that. ”
Ouyang Kaishan said with a smile: "Ah Ming, help your Aunt Liu serve the food." ”
Zhong Yue stood aside and didn't speak, just happily watched as Ou Yangming was sent to work again.
Ou Yangming was so angry that his teeth itched, why did his grandfather always help this stinky boy speak.
"Since a few teachers are interested in mentioning it, then I will be ugly. "Although Zhong Yue has not yet come into contact with cursive writing, he still has some insights.
"Yu Lao can be called a contemporary giant, with a strong cursive style and a thick gold and stone atmosphere, but he is not very in favor of standard cursive. ”
A few old calligraphers looked at each other, "Oh? What do you mean, this is not the right way for modern calligraphers?"
"Old Xi, Zhong Yue's experience is still shallow, if there are some inappropriate things, please forgive me. ”
"Now tell me what you think. ”
Zhong Yue continued: "The art of calligraphy has its own laws of development, and it should be colorful and colorful, and there is no need to force uniformity. Reading ancient and modern works, it is also most taboo to favor one good and reject all the beauty, so no matter whether it is subordinate to the grass, there should be no standard. ”
"What about Tang Kai's law?"
"Law and standard are two different things. ”
Xi Qichang nodded appreciatively and continued to ask: "If there is no standard, everyone pursues the smooth beauty of the lines, which is difficult to read, difficult to write, and difficult to remember, how to solve it?"
Zhong Yue's words were concise and to the point, "Brushwork." ”
A few people were a little surprised, "Brushwork? Do you really dare to say that the secret that has not been passed down for more than a thousand years, how can you determine the law by penmanship?"
Zhong Yue naturally understood the reason why these old calligraphers didn't believe it, "This requires the efforts of people of my generation." ”
"Good!"
"What Zhong Xiaoyou said won my heart, this wine, I drank it somebody. ”
Ou Yangming just wanted to come over and laugh a few words, but before he could pull out the cork of the red wine that had just been opened, it was taken by Han Qi, who had a beard, and poured it into the wine glass, and drank three glasses in a row.
Ouyang Kaishan also smiled, he didn't see Zhong Yue still have such a deep calligraphy foundation, these words are not something ordinary people can say, how did he know that Zhong Yue, who lives in the ravine, is dealing with a group of ancient calligraphers every day. I've never eaten pork and seen pigs run away.
"Let's go to the table to eat, what's the matter, old seat, how is my little Kening?" Ouyang Kaishan said and even the Shanghai words came out.
"It's good, it's good, I originally thought it was just a little better writing, and if I can have such a vision, I can become a big thing in the future, which is good. ”
Zhong Yue picked up his wine glass and said, "Write a few teachers' instructions, in order to show respect, first salute a few teachers for three glasses." ”
said that it was a bet, but Zhong Yue understood that this was just a joke, and he couldn't really let this old man toast himself three glasses of wine, and others would give Ouyang Kaishan face, and they would not make it difficult for him, people must be arrogant, but they can't be arrogant, as a junior, they naturally do it first.
In this way, several people laughed heartily, and the praise in their eyes was self-evident, this young man is really sensible.
"Lao Xi, since I said the bet just now, I haven't said what if Zhong Yue wins. You are all old-timers, so you can't treat the juniors badly. "Just now, Zhong Yue helped Ouyang Kaishan earn face, and let a few calligraphers have more face, so naturally they have to ask for some benefits.
There are some things that can't be bought with money, even Ouyang Kaishan can't help Zhong Yue.
"Well, Kaishan is right. These three glasses of toast are toasted to my heart, in this way, Zhong Yue, what do you want, can satisfy a few of us as much as possible. Of course, if you open your mouth and ask for a big riverside villa like Kaishanjia, then it is estimated that we will bundle up and sell it, and we will not be able to afford it. ”
"Haha. ”
Zhong Yue naturally didn't open his mouth, and said with a smile: "Several of them are calligraphers in Shanghai, and it is already my honor to be able to guide the younger generations in calligraphy. ”
With Ouyang Kaishan here, Ou Yangming, who was accompanying him, never dared to be presumptuous, and said lightly: "Don't go too far." ”
As long as you don't let someone Han write calligraphy naked by the Huangpu River, it's okay. "Han Qi, who drank the wine, has a rough personality, and now he is even more casual.
"I'm from Z County, and I brought some good Huimo this time, and I'm going to give it to a few teachers later, and I hope a few of them will be smiling. ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone at the dinner table was stunned.
"What? I heard you right? This reluctant request of yours means to give us your emblem ink?"
"Kaishan, my ears are fine, right?"
The smile on Ouyang Kaishan's face became even stronger, he can be taught, "I don't think Zhong Yue will be untargeted, a few old brothers, but be careful." ”
"I'm afraid. Your request, I Han someone agreed, happy, I thought I was going to have some blood, but I didn't expect to pick up a bargain, I'll see what kind of good thing it is later. ”
The adults at the dinner table talked happily and drank a piece. Ou Yangming looked at Zhong Yue, who was not shocked, and felt a little admiration in his heart, this kid, what a way. You must know that in the past, his grandfather's group of literary friends did not look at the children of the Ouyang family, although they were not as rich as the Ouyang family, but in terms of social status, they were definitely above Ouyang Kaishan.
However, today, it should be the day when Ou Yangming has seen these "zombie faces" laugh the happiest and the most times.
