Back then, Hong Hezhang's father "Hong Yueshi" and brother "Hong Jianzhang" died, and his mother and sister-in-law disappeared. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

At that time, many people suspected that this death and disappearance incident was a conspiracy designed by the father and son of "Hong Yuedong" and "Hong Bingzhang" in order to compete for the dominance of the Hong family, but in the end there was no conclusive evidence, and the result could only be stopped.

If the "Hong Yueshi" lineage had not died out suddenly three years ago, I am afraid that the order of strength of the three ancient families in China now would not be Zhang, Zhong, and Hong, but Hong, Zhong, and Zhang.

After all, there are three ruthless characters in the third generation of the Zhang family: "Zhang Fuhu, Zhang Split Leopard, and Zhang Swallowing Wolf".

And the third generation of the Hong family is left with only such a terrible figure as "Hong Bingzhang".

As for the third-generation descendants of the Zhong family, except for the two female generations of "Zhong Xiaofang and Zhong Xiaohua", everyone else is simply useless.

Zhong Xiaofang remembered that when he and his sister were twenty years old three years ago, Hong Hezhang should have been about fifteen years old, the youngest descendant of the Hong family, and the most low-key person in ordinary times.

Because he has loved calligraphy and painting since he was a child, he usually lives in a simple place and concentrates on calligraphy and painting, and it is difficult for others to see him.

At the age of twelve, Hong Hezhang's calligraphy and painting achievements have climbed to the peak of the master, moving the Beijing and shocking the world.

Three years ago, Zhong Xiaofang and his sister had a relationship with Hong Hezhang, the little brother, at their twentieth birthday party, so it is understandable that he drew this "Fanghua Peerless Picture" based on what he saw and heard at the time.

It's just that, the strange thing is, how did this painting of Hong Hezhang fall into the hands of the person in front of him?

Could it be that the simple young man in front of him, who was silently cleaning up the damaged paintings of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, was the second young master of the Hong family and the genius boy calligrapher and painter "Hong Hezhang"?

Zhong Xiaohua saw that her sister was looking at the painting in her hand stupidly, and she also walked over curiously.

After Hong Hezhang heard Zhong Xiaohua's words, he quickly stood up, turned around and looked, only to see Zhong Xiaofang holding the "Fanghua Peerless Map" in his hand, so he "smacked", and his face began to turn red again.

At this time, Zhong Xiaofang was finally able to look at this simple young man head-on, and he was more sure of his guess.

Although Hong Hezhang has grown a lot taller and changed a lot in the past three years, Zhong Xiaofang carefully observed this world-famous young calligrapher and painter at a young age, so he was particularly impressed.

She was sure that the simple young man in front of her must be Hong Hezhang.

Zhong Xiaohua usually has a big personality and is more boyish, so he didn't recognize the man in front of him as Hong Hezhang, the third young master of the Hong family, at this time.

Zhong Xiaofang looked at Hong Hezhang and asked with a smile: "This friend, may I ask if the "Fanghua Peerless Picture" in my hand was painted by you?"

Hong Hezhang's face was red, he didn't dare to look at Zhong Xiaofang, and replied: "No." This is something I picked up by accident. ”

Zhong Xiaofang pursed her lips, but did not expose this rotten lie, and continued to ask: "Then do you know this Hong Hezhang who painted this painting? He is a friend of mine before, somehow, he has been missing for three years now, and he has never returned home. ”

Hong Hezhang shook his head and replied, "I'm sorry. I don't know. ”

Zhong Xiaofang let out an "oh" and asked again: "In that case, can you ask a friend for his name?"

Hong Hezhang said: "My name is Ma Xingkong. ”

Zhong Xiaofang asked, "Ma Xingkong's horse?"

Hong Hezhang was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

Zhong Xiaofang looked at the "Fanghua Peerless Picture" in his hand and asked, "I just saw this painting here to buy and sell, I don't know if you can sell it to me?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the broken paintings on the ground and said, "And these damaged paintings, sell them all to me, how much money, you name it." ”

Hong Hezhang finally raised his eyes to look at Zhong Xiaofang, looking at the "Fanghua Peerless Picture" in her hand, a little unable to give up, but finally said: "Actually, this "Fanghua Peerless Picture" is not for sale, the reason why I took it out may be because I was in a hurry to go out in the morning, so I took it wrong." However, since the person who painted it is you, and the person who painted it is also your friend, then you can take it back, and this can be regarded as the return of the object to its original owner. As for the damaged paintings on the ground, they no longer have any value. If you want, I'll give it to you. Finally, thank you two for saving each other just now! ”

After finishing speaking, Hong Hezhang smiled at the two girls, and then picked up the brush, paper, and sketchpad to leave.

"Hey...... Little Brother ......"

Zhong Xiaohua raised the 5,000 yuan in his hand, and suddenly shouted: "You don't want to take our money, don't you plan to ask for the 5,000 yuan that these hooligans compensated you? This is the money you deserve!"

Hong Hezhang's face turned crimson, looked at Zhong Xiaohua, nodded and said, "Okay." Thank you. ”

After Hong Hezhang took the money, he turned around and left.

Zhong Xiaohua looked at Hong Hezhang's back and muttered, "What a weirdo! We want to give him money, but he doesn't even want it." ”

Zhong Xiaofang said with a smile: "It's not that he doesn't want to, but he doesn't care at all." ”

Zhong Xiaohua asked suspiciously, "Why?"

Zhong Xiaofang said with a smile: "Because every painting here is hard to find, and there is no market, how much do you think we should pay him?"

Zhong Xiaohua was even more dazed, and said: "Is it hard to find a thousand gold?

Zhong Xiaofang sighed, nodded and said, "Because he is the world-famous genius young calligrapher and painter 'Hong Hezhang' three years ago." ”

Zhong Xiaohua opened his mouth wide, looking incredulous, and exclaimed, "Ah......? He is the second young master of the Hong family who has been missing for three years?"

Zhong Xiaofang pursed her lips and nodded in response, "Hmm." ”

Zhong Xiaohua looked at the "Fanghua Peerless Picture" in his sister's hand, and then remembered Hong Hezhang's embarrassed appearance of blushing and shyness just now, and suddenly guessed with a wicked smile: "This little kid secretly painted this picture for us at that time, wouldn't he like our sisters?"

After Zhong Xiaofang heard her sister's guess, she was stunned for a moment, as if she had suddenly realized it.

She didn't respond to her sister's words, but waved her hand lightly and made a gesture.

Then a plain-looking and plainly dressed young man immediately walked out of the crowd, stood beside Zhong Xiaofang, bowed his head and asked respectfully, "Miss, what are your instructions?"

Zhong Xiaofang looked at the direction in which Hong Hezhang left, and said to the ordinary youth: "You go and follow the young man who painted just now and see where he lives?"

"Yes. ”

The ordinary young man made a promise and immediately disappeared into the crowd.

Zhong Xiaohua looked at her sister and asked with a smile: "Sister, if you inquire about this little child's residence, won't you like him?"

Zhong Xiaofang shook his head and explained lightly: "I'm just curious why he suddenly disappeared three years ago. ”

Zhong Xiaohua nodded, "Oh", and after a while, seeing that his sister was still thoughtful, he said angrily: "Okay, sister, you also called the bodyguard to follow him just now, and then we can wait for the news, why are you still standing here stupidly? Hurry up and accompany me to buy a mask." Tonight's Gulangyu Sea Yacht Masquerade, I must wear a terrible mask to scare those bastards!"
