[The delicacy in the history of Qingbai porcelain first appeared in Jingdezhen in the Northern Song Dynasty, but in the local county chronicles of Jingdezhen, it is said that it first appeared in the Tang Dynasty.

Tang went back and said to his husband Tang Yuan, Tang Yuan thought about it and felt that Xiao Yan's child was indeed good, and he was a good match for his own daughter, and Tang Xiao's two families had also been friends for many years, and if they could form a family, they would naturally be overjoyed. So in the early morning of the second day, I found a brother Xiao who went to Xiao Mansion to visit his family.

Xiao's Mansion is just east of the Tang Mansion, and there is a bluestone path less than a zhang wide between the two families. Raise your breath in your own yard, climb over the wall, and then jump to the opposite side, you can easily step to the courtyard wall of the Tang Mansion, isn't it very convenient!

Of course, Tang Yuan can't make it so convenient, and Tang Yuan doesn't know martial arts.

Tang Yuan came to the gate of Xiao's mansion, said hello to the old man guarding the door and walked straight in, Tang Xiao's two families have been friends for more than ten years, and they have long been indistinguishable from each other, so naturally they no longer need those false courtesies.

The courtyard of Xiao Mansion is very large, much larger than that of Tang Mansion, but there are still only a few houses that live in it, after all, there are not many people in Xiao Mansion. However, there is a huge open space at the foot of the mountain behind the house, which has been circled by the Xiao family and made into a backyard like a school yard. Tang Yuan went around to the backyard, and at this time, Xiao Yi, the owner of the Xiao family, was leading his son Xiao Yan to practice swords on the school field.

The Xiao family has no hostess, or Tang Yuan has never seen it, more than ten years ago, when Xiao Yi came to Changnan Town with Xiao Yan in his arms, Tang Yuan had never seen the hostess of the Xiao family. Later, Tang Yuan asked euphemistically, and Xiao Yi only said, "I passed away." Tang Yuan didn't inquire after that.

In fact, Tang Yuan didn't fully understand himself, the Xiao brothers, who had been friends for more than ten years, and Xiao Yi never mentioned his past. It's just that when Xiao Yi came to Changnan Town alone, he bought a rich family business with a wave of his hand, and he was also quite famous in Fuliang County, and even the county lord visited several times. It's just that Xiao Yi usually lives in a simple place, and in addition to having some interactions with Tang Yuan, he seems to have never seen him interact with others. All kinds of qiē have cast a veil of mystery on this Xiao Yi, but they don't care about these Tang Yuan, everyone has a past, if they force this, it will hurt the friendship between brothers, I am afraid that it is also for this reason that Xiao Tang and the two can have been friends for more than ten years.

The father and son of the Xiao family on the school field were fighting, and they saw that both of them were holding bamboo swords, and their movements were suddenly light, calm, and slow. Tang Yuan is a layman, he can't see any doorways, but he just thinks that the swordsmanship of the two people is a little bit like what a man should do, but it looks like a women's sword dance that he once saw in Yuzhang City, but it looks different, and it is really strangely tight.

Tang Yuan shook his head and didn't think about these things that he was not good at, it was better to go home and pinch the mud if he had this time.

Tang Yuan stood quietly under the weeping willows around the school grounds, and after a quarter of an hour, the Xiao family's father and son stopped the swords in their hands.

"It's okay for Brother Tang to wait, forgive me!" Xiao Yi walked over to Tang Yuan and said with a bow from afar.

"I didn't have to wait long, I was able to appreciate Brother Xiao's swordsmanship, and I should wait for a while!" Tang Yuan said with a smile.

"Haha, Brother Tang, you are still so good at talking. Xiao Yi laughed a few times.

"Uncle Tang is good!" Xiao Yan respectfully saluted Tang Yuan, Tang Yuan was a few years older than Xiao Yi, not only that, but even Tang Xueying was a few months older than Xiao Yan, so in front of Xiao Yan, Tang Xueying always acted like an eldest sister.

"Xiaoyan, you're practicing well, I think I'll catch up with your father in a few years. "Actually, Tang Yuan couldn't see Xiao Yan's swordsmanship at all, but today he came with a different kind of thought, and he always had to say a few words of praise, but it couldn't be too explicit, it was really difficult for Tang Yuan, who was coarse and literate.

"Uncle Tang praised it, the little nephew is still far away!" Xiao Yan hurriedly said.

"Okay, Yan'er, you step aside, my father has something to say to your Uncle Tang. Xiao Yi is also a person with strong eyesight, and when he saw Tang Yuan coming today, he thought that he had something to talk to him about.

"Yes, Yan'er retired. When Xiao Yan heard his father's words, he immediately bowed down and retreated, and his strict father's style was undoubtedly revealed.

Tang Yuan looked at Xiao Yan, who was a talent, not only behaved moderately, but also polite, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and the more he felt that Xiao Yan and his daughter were a good match.

"Brother Tang, Brother Tang, Yan'er has left, let's go to the pavilion and sit down. Xiao Yi recalled the distracted Tang Yuan and built a way.

"Oh, good, good!" Tang Yuan also realized that he was out of shape, and he was busy sloppy.

The two walked to a gazebo on the edge of the school yard and sat down, this pavilion was built by the original owner of Xiao Mansion, when Xiao Yi expanded the backyard, he saw that this pavilion was in good shape, so he stayed. It's just that there is such a chic gazebo on the side of the empty school field, which is really a bit nondescript. It's just that Xiao Yi is a martial artist and doesn't care about these.

Xiao Yi instructed the servant to bring refreshments, and chatted with Tang Yuan.

"Brother Tang came here today and I don't know why?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Oh...... Actually, it's nothing, but I remember that I haven't seen my brother for many days, and I panicked, so I'll take a look today. Tang Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, this is also inevitable, Tang Yuan is the woman's parent, and it is naturally impossible for him to speak first about this kind of marriage.

"That is, I heard that Brother Tang has been thinking about a new type of porcelain recently, and he is very busy. Although Xiao Yi had already seen some of Tang Yuan's intentions, it seemed that he had not pierced it out of some other considerations.

Xue Jue's girl Xiao Yi is common, not only is she beautiful, but she is also knowledgeable, and she has a good temperament, so it is naturally good to be able to marry her back as a daughter-in-law. It's just that they have their own difficulties, but they can't be told by outsiders.

"Yes, the porcelain will be burned another day, and it will definitely be sent to Brother Xiao for enjoyment. As soon as he mentioned porcelain, his own specialty, Tang Yuan was a little excited.

It's just that Xiao is a rough person who can't taste Brother Tang's masterpiece. Xiao Yi smiled and said.

"No, this time the porcelain Xiao brothers will definitely be able to see how good it is!" Tang Yuan said mysteriously.

"Oh, then, I'm going to have to take a closer look. Seeing that Tang Yuan was pulled away from the topic by himself, Xiao Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, if Tang Yuan opened his mouth to say those words, if he refused at that time, he would definitely hurt the brotherhood for many years.

Chatting and chatting, Tang Yuan suddenly realized that the topic was getting farther and farther away from the purpose of his visit, and Tang Yuan was a little anxious. But he tried to change the topic many times, but today's Xiao Yi seems to have become a ceramic lover, specifically chatting with himself about some porcelain matters, and Tang Yuan is not easy to refuse.

Finally waiting for a vacancy, Tang Yuan was about to go out and give the other party some obvious hints, when suddenly a voice came from a distance, Tang Yuan heard it clearly, it was the voice of his own servant Wu Bo.

"Master, master, it's burned, it's burned!" Uncle Wu kept shouting as he ran towards this side, his face full of joy.

"What is burned?" Tang Yuan couldn't help but move in his heart when he heard Uncle Wu's words. Uncle Wu is serious, nothing is a big deal, he will not be so flustered, coupled with the content of his shouting, Tang Yuan couldn't help but think of one thing, and when Uncle Wu ran to him, he hurriedly held Uncle Wu with both hands and said loudly.

"Master, it's Qingbai porcelain, and the potter at home came to report that the Qingbai porcelain was fired!" Wu Bo is old, and he has just run such a way, and he is out of breath, and he can't say a word.

"Really?" Hearing Uncle Wu's words, the guess in his heart was confirmed, Tang Yuan clenched Uncle Wu excitedly, and he didn't care if the elderly Uncle Wu could withstand the strength of his hand.

"Really! Of course it's true!" Uncle Wu could also understand Tang Yuan's excitement, so he didn't mind, and said with the pain.

"Great! Hurry! Take me quickly!" Tang Yuan, who was excited, had long forgotten the rest of the qiē, and hurriedly dragged Uncle Wu to go out.

Uncle Wu looked at Xiao Yi helplessly, saying goodbye to him on behalf of the master. Xiao Yi also knew that his Tang brother was obsessed with porcelain, so he naturally didn't care about these small sections, and smiled and made a goodbye gesture to Uncle Wu.

Tang Yuan excitedly pulled Uncle Wu and ran towards his porcelain kiln quickly, and poor Uncle Wu followed hard behind.

The porcelain kiln of the Tang family is at the foot of the mountain in the east, in fact, most of the porcelain kilns in Changnan Town are here, after all, no one can put the earthen kiln at home, not to mention the danger, the family will not have to live on a hot day.

The two rushed to the porcelain kiln, where the craftsmen had been waiting for a long time. The craftsmen are all old people from the Tang family for several generations, and it goes without saying that they are loyal. Tang Yuan, as the best porcelain burner in Changnan Town, will fire some new varieties of porcelain from time to time, but this time it is different from the previous ones. Tang Yuan had been researching this new variety of porcelain several years ago, thinking of combining celadon from the south and white porcelain from the north to produce a new porcelain, which Tang Yuan named "Qingbai porcelain".

The craftsmen are all old people in this industry, and naturally know what a new variety means for an industry, so this confidential work is naturally done very well.

Tang Yuan didn't pay attention to the craftsmen who greeted him, he was now all focused on his porcelain, and there were other things to worry about. The craftsmen were also well aware of the temper of the master and did not care.

Tang Yuan came to a porcelain kiln that had just been extinguished, the cooling process of this era was not very mature, and the method of natural cooling was still used. In order to finalize the porcelain, the porcelain workers also prevent the porcelain from being taken out suddenly, and the large temperature difference between the inside and outside causes cracks in the porcelain, so after the kiln is turned off, the porcelain will still not be taken out, and it will not be taken out until the porcelain has completely cooled down naturally.

The anxious Tang Yuan is an old porcelain craftsman, so he naturally understands these truths, and he can't take them out, but it doesn't prevent Tang Yuan from watching his works in advance through the small opening on the door of the porcelain kiln.

A small bowl is placed on the earthen shelf in the kiln, which is also the practice of firing new varieties, from simple to complex. The Qingbai porcelain, which Tang Yuan had high hopes for, has not yet shown her charm at the moment, and like other porcelain that has not yet cooled, it is only red and red.

Finally, after waiting for half an hour, it was finally time to get out of the kiln. Tang Yuan didn't let anyone else do it, rolled up his sleeves and picked up the iron shovel, and carefully took out the porcelain.

Porcelain that has just come out of the kiln is like a newborn baby, spotless and immaculate.

I saw that the small bowl was fine, white, the wall of the bowl was crystal clear, and the whole bowl emitted a soft luster like jade under the sunlight.

"It's done!" Tang Yuan's excited voice sounded among the silent crowd.

"Boss, this ...... Is this a porcelain bowl?" asked a leading craftsman with a trembling voice, although he saw Tang Yuan's zuò just now and saw him take it out of the kiln, but when he saw the bowl in front of him, where is this porcelain bowl, this is clearly a jade bowl!

On the immaculate wall of the bowl, there is a little pale cyan in the white, which not only does not reduce the beauty of the bowl, but makes the whole bowl more like a piece of jade carving.

Porcelain imitation jade, this thousand-year-old dream of all porcelain workers has finally been completed in the hands of Tang Yuan!

"Of course it's porcelain! This is a genuine blue and white porcelain! Hahaha" Tang Yuan laughed as he spoke, and there were crystal tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, tears of joy!

Many years of long-cherished wish has finally been completed, and since then, there will be a new variety of Chinese porcelain, Qingbai porcelain, which has the reputation of "fake jade"!
