Chapter 19: Weird
Yan Qing looked at him, unless her head was clipped, she would feel that they should go back to the Lu Clan Painting and Calligraphy Museum. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Husband!" she said: "I think about it, the two paintings and calligraphy are not sold, if they sell the two masterpieces as promised, it is better for us to revive our strength!"
The art stall now earns six taels of silver a day, and that's only a few hours of the day.
Now, we don't have to rush back to Tanglin Village every day, in fact, we can continue to set up a painting stall at night!
In this way, if the painting is stable and smooth, they will be able to earn a hundred taels of silver after ten days.
If the painting doesn't go well, they save money and think of other ways.
Su Jin saw that what his lady said was reasonable, but the most difficult problem in front of him really made him anxious, and he didn't know if he could find it in the afternoon...
Yan Qing understood her husband's thoughts, and said with a smile: "That husband, let's go have lunch first, and then go find a place to live, okay?"
"Hmm!" Su Jin nodded, since he decided not to sell these two paintings and calligraphy, he had to do so first.
He and Yan Qing walked to an alley on Shu'an Street that was specially designed for a teahouse restaurant, found a small restaurant in the alley, and ordered a plate of fried asparagus with shredded pork.
Waited for a while.
"Your dishes!" The owner of the restaurant brought up the stir-fried vegetables, turned around and left, without even looking at Su Jin and Yan Qing.
Yan Qinghu looked at him suspiciously, flipped through the plate with chopsticks, but he didn't expect that even a restaurant would want to pit them.
As soon as she put her chopsticks on the table, she wanted to get up and go to the boss to reason, they ordered fried asparagus with shredded meat, but why did they only see shredded asparagus on the plate?
Su Jin didn't care, the so-called world was hot and cold, he had already learned not to be surprised, just a plate of shredded meat fried asparagus, he didn't pay attention to it.
He looked at Yan Qing and smiled and comforted: "Lady, sit down and eat! You don't have to reason about this plate of fried asparagus with shredded pork, a plate of fried asparagus with shredded meat is enough for us to eat, and we will have to find suitable accommodation later."
"Okay!" Yan Qing glanced at the restaurant owner who was too deceitful, of course, whatever her husband said.
Thinking that there was really nothing to be angry about, the two of them finished eating, Su Jin put the silver on the table, and the two went to find accommodation.
Lan'an County is not big, but it is not small.
However, finding a reasonably priced and affordable place to live can be challenging.
They walked through several alleys of ordinary people's houses, and had just come out of the courtyard of an aunt.
Yan Qing said with emotion: "If only you could go online in ancient times, what kind of listings you want to see, directly screen on the listing website, what kind of you want, what kind of you have, and then find out the address, go straight to the destination to save more trouble."
Su Jin listened to what she said very interestingly, and thought to himself that if he really couldn't find a room to stay in today, he would go to find a quiet inn, they would stay for one night, and then look for it again tomorrow.
Thinking of it, he took Yan Qing's words with some relief and said, "If the lady says so, can you find Pingyang's accommodation in Lan'an?"
"Pingyang?" Yan Qing asked, listening to the unfamiliar place name.
"Hmm!" Su Jin continued: "Pingyang is the Kyoto of this dynasty."
"Oh... I see!" She nodded understandingly, and suddenly remembered the source Mr. Wei mentioned by the old fox today? I wanted to ask her husband at the Lu Clan's Painting and Calligraphy Museum, but then this matter went wrong, and I never remembered to ask.
They were walking towards the next household, and Yan Qing asked him, "I don't know who Mr. Wei is who his husband admires?"
Su Jin heard his wife ask about this, and he replied with a smile: "Mr. Wei was originally the first-class champion of the department in this dynasty, and he was an official in the court for two years, but then for some reason, he resigned and returned to his hometown!"
When he talked about Mr. Wei's resignation, his tone was filled with regret.
"Mr. Wei's painting and calligraphy methods are changeable, mostly based on light ink and sparse painting, with fine carving and rich coloring."
Yan Qing listened carefully to Su Jin talking about Mr. Wei, and it was not good to evaluate this Mr. Wei from the words, but he only felt that there was a "strange" word, and I don't know if there will be a chance to meet Mr. Wei who is admired by his husband in the future.
The two of them walked to the door of the next house, and at a glance they saw the courtyard door, which looked a little dilapidated.
I saw a fortune-generating couplet pasted on the courtyard gate, and the original joyful couplet paper was obviously white.
It seems that no one has lived in it for a long time, Yan Qing and Su Jin glanced at each other, and there was also inexplicability in their hearts, they were hesitating to knock on the door to try their luck?
Maybe the owner of the house is good, and for the sake of the old and dilapidated house, it is better to give them some preferential rent for them to live for a while.
Thinking about it, Yan Qing wanted to give it a try with hope, she knocked lightly on the door, leaned forward and leaned on the door to listen, and when she heard that there was no movement in the house, she simply pushed the courtyard door with her hand.
Unexpectedly, this door was pushed by her, and two doors fell to the ground in a row, revealing a strange smell in the courtyard.
Yan Qing hurriedly rested her head on her husband's shoulder, wouldn't she push open the ghost door?
But she thought about it again.
What do you think is terrible? To say that she is still a person who has passed through the soul, who is she afraid of?
Su Jin thought that he could go in and have a look, and if he was offended, he would make amends.
He looked at the tenant carefully, and made sure that it didn't look like someone living there, so he took Yan Qing's hand and walked into the courtyard.
Some neighbors heard the sound of the door falling next door at home, and they were also curious, standing in their yard and looking next door.
They all heard the sound of the door falling to the ground, but at this moment, there was no one to be seen, and they thought that they did not seem to want to join in the excitement, and after seeing it twice, they all went back to their respective homes in a boring way.
"Husband!" Yan Qing looked into the courtyard and saw that there was a well in the courtyard, but weeds had already climbed on the manhole cover.
She withdrew her gaze and leaned into the dilapidated house, "It seems to be a long-abandoned household"
"Hmm!" Su Jin also had the same opinion.
They went into the house, and there was only one hall in the room, with a stove on the left, a low square table and chair in the middle, and a bed on the right, except that a foot of white silk hung on the beam in front of the bed.
"Husband, let's go!" Yan Qing said and turned around and wanted to leave, not because she was afraid, but because this was a house where people had died, she didn't want them to alarm the undead, after all, she was a living example.
"Okay!" Su Jin led her around and was about to leave, but when he walked to the threshold, he seemed to have stepped on something?
"What's the matter, husband?" Yan Qing saw that he was not leaving.
Su Jin glanced at her, and the two of them looked at his feet at the same time.
