The so-called three-point painting, three-point mounting, calligraphy is no exception. The framing of calligraphy and painting is not only to protect the original painting, but also to set off it. A good frame, like the finishing touch, highlights the spirit of calligraphy and painting.

Now that's it, the originally fluttering pages of the notebook have been modified by Xiao Shan's skillful hands, and they are tightly inlaid in the mounting, which naturally produces a sense of stability and atmosphere.

"Come and have a look."

At this time, Xiao Shan took a few steps back, looked at the work he had framed, and while he was satisfied, he also smiled modestly: "Brother Wang, my craftsmanship is average, if you feel bad, please forgive me." ”

"Brother Xiao, you don't have to say anything about your craftsmanship, it's a must."

Wang Guan saw it from afar, and now he saw it more clearly when he got closer, and couldn't help but admire: "The calligraphy is in the center, neat, uniform, and impartial, and it is completely at the level of a master." ”

"It's over, it's over." Xiao Shan smiled and waved his hand again and again.

"Really nice ......"

Yu Feibai and Tang Qinghua nodded in agreement, and praised again.

After receiving everyone's affirmation, Xiao Shan was in a good mood, feeling that the day's efforts were not in vain, and at the same time advised: "Brother Wang, the scroll has just been framed, and the paste has not been completely dried." Once you bring it home, remember to hang it on the wall overnight so it doesn't wrinkle. Also, when you are watching, try not to touch the ...... with your hands."

Xiao Shan told him a thousand times, and he completely regarded things as his beloved things. Wang Guan nodded again and again, suddenly pointed to the blank place of the long scroll, and said with a smile: "This is the place that was specially left to inscribe to Zhou Lao, right?" ”

"That's right."

Speaking of which, regarding the blank space of the inscription, Xiao Shan also has some difficulties. Generally speaking, if it is an inscription by the author of calligraphy and painting, he will write long if he loves long, and short if he loves short, there is no hard and fast rule. As for the inscription of someone other than the author, it depends on the blank space of the calligraphy and painting.

If there is a lot of blank space in calligraphy and painting, you can write a few more words. Little or no white space...... It is also possible to write. However, the inscription was written first, and then the calligraphy and painting were reframed and the inscription was spliced into it.

Take Wang Xizhi's sunny post when it is snowing fast as an example, twenty-eight words are just a small page. However, all kinds of inscriptions, supplements, famous comments, etc., are almost dozens of times that of this post.

Of course, to a certain extent, the more inscriptions of famous artists, the more they show the importance that everyone attaches to this thing, and it can also directly verify the authenticity of things, which is often said to be orderly inheritance.

However, these pages of Cai Jing's manuscript did not have such good treatment.

Zhou Lao said that he wanted to inscribe on it, but Xiao Shan didn't know whether he wanted to write a long or short question, so after hesitating for a long time, he simply took the middle, leaving a space about the size of two pages of copybook sections. As long as the long and short characters are smaller, and the short characters are larger, you can swing freely.

"Tomorrow we are going to visit Zhou Lao."

At the same time, Wang Guan invited: "If Brother Xiao is free, how about accompanying us for a trip?" ”

"I'll go too...... Is this appropriate? "Xiaoshan is naturally a surprise intersection.

"There's nothing out of place." Wang Guan said with a smile: "You have also seen Elder Zhou, a very gentle elder, approachable, and you also have a common language, you will definitely welcome you as a guest." ”

"Then I'll be disrespectful." Xiao Shan didn't shirk anymore, and agreed with a smile on his face.

Needless to say, the next few people who were so hungry that their stomachs were rumbling immediately went out to let go of their bellies and eat a big meal, and then made an appointment to meet tomorrow and left separately.

The next morning, several people drove to the Zhou family's home.

Speaking of which, the Zhou family's residence is also a traditional courtyard house, but it is not as wide as the door of the old mansion. It's just a medium-sized courtyard with a very elegant layout. Especially after coming to the main courtyard, the small hanging flower door and the lotus pots, potted flowers and other scenery in front of it constitute an interesting courtyard picture.

"Old Zhou, we're here......"

Before entering the weeping flower gate, Yu Feibai shouted loudly. At this time, he was carrying a delicate cage in his hand, and there were beautiful birds in the cage that Tang Qinghua asked someone to get overnight. With Yu Feibai's swaying gait step by step, the caged bird also let out bursts of crisp chirping sounds. The voice is tactful and melodious, it is the yellow warbler.

Amidst the shouting, everyone also approached the hall, and through the beaded curtain hanging from the hall door, they could vaguely see the situation inside.

"It seems that a guest is visiting......," Tang Qinghua reminded softly.

Everyone nodded slightly, and also restrained a little.

"Come in."

At the same time, Zhou Lao walked out, opened the bead curtain and said with a smile: "It is estimated that you also came here at this time period...... Hey, what's going on, why are you bringing so many things? ”

"This is a gift that Mr. Zhang entrusted us to bring to you." Wang Guan explained with a smile.

"Nonsense, I don't know Dongfeng, I'm very stingy, at most I carry a box of tea." Zhou Lao shook his head and said, "You bought other things, I don't lack this, remember to bring it back when you leave." ”

"Others can be returned, and the cage is left ......"

Suddenly, a vigorous voice came from the hall, and I saw an old man in a Tang costume walking out.

Wang looked at it and felt that it was really a coincidence. Although this old man has changed into a dark red Tang costume, his appearance has not changed, and he is the person who had to buy his birdcage yesterday.

"Brother Chang!"

At this time, Zhou Lao smiled heartily and introduced the two sides: "These are my juniors, and they are also people in the circle, Brother Chang, you are an old-timer in the circle, but you need to take care of it." ”

"Just give me the cage." The old man in Tang costume nodded, still remembering the birdcage.

"What cage?" Zhou Lao was a little stunned.

"This is the ......"

The old man in Tang costume pointed to the birdcage in Yu Feibai's hand, and there was a bit of anticipation in his eyes.

For a while, except for Wang Guan, Zhou Lao and the others felt very confused, and looked at the birdcage carefully, thinking that it was just a very good structure, not to mention something rare, why did the old man in Tang costume keep asking for it?

"Brother Chang, you are a big offering to Rong Bao Zhai, you haven't seen any rare antiques in ordinary times, and a bamboo and rattan cage can also enter your eyes?" Zhou Lao said with a smile, and also pointed out the identity of the old man in Tang costume.

"What is enshrined, it is an idler."

The old man in Tang costume waved his hand, and then said to Old Zhou: "Anyway, you don't raise birds, and it will be in vain to give you things, so it's better to give them to me." Or I'll help you get the birds in tune and give them back to you. ”

The actions of the old man in Tang costume were too obvious, even Yu Feibai and Tang Qinghua felt that something was wrong, not to mention that Old Zhou had rich experience and thoughtfulness, and suddenly chuckled: "Brother Chang, this is not like you." Usually ask you to help train a bird, but you say that you are very busy and have no time. But now he says that he is an idler, and he takes the initiative to ask for help, which is abnormal, too abnormal. ”

"What is abnormal, so normal." At the right time, the old man in Tang costume also realized that he was a little anxious, and secretly complained that he was happy to see the hunt, but he couldn't hold his breath like this, and his self-cultivation efforts over the years were in vain.

"You've begged me so many times, I have to give you some face."

The old man in Tang costume rolled his eyes, pointed to the bird in the cage and said, "Besides, when I heard the call of this bird just now, I knew that it was a good bird, which made me have the urge to train it myself......

"Is it really that good?" Zhou Lao was a little confused, after all, he also knew that the old man in Tang costume did have a bit of the ability to walk birds, and the birds he trained were not only in good spirits, but also had a more crisp and pleasant voice.

"Of course it's true, I'll lie to you." The old man in Tang costume said confidently, he really didn't lie about this, the birds are really good. Anyway, it was also obtained by Tang Qinghua's relationship, and he didn't spend less money, how could it be bad.

It's just that the purpose of the old man in Tang costume is a little impure. But it doesn't matter, when you achieve your goal, you can train this bird with your heart, and you can be regarded as worthy of an old friend...... The old man in Tang costume thought about it, and couldn't help but glance at Wang Guan, afraid that this young man would react and debunk that his target was not a bird, but this cage.

However, at this time, Wang Guan just smiled and did not mean to speak.

"Fortunately, fortunately, ......" Seeing this, the old man in Tang costume breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Zhou Lao thought about it, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take this bird, and you must take back the other gifts." I'm not a leader, so I don't need you to bribe. ”

"Old Zhou, don't look at these big bags and small bags, there are actually nothing of value."

At this time, after handing the birdcage to the old man in Tang costume, Yu Feibai hurriedly explained: "It's just some pen, ink, paper, and inkstone." ”

"That's it, please splash ink with your old man, you can't even let you get old." Wang Guan said with a smile: "There is no pen fee, but the materials should always be prepared by us." ”

Xiao Shan and Tang Qinghua nodded hurriedly and persuaded beside them.

"That's not right!"

Suddenly, the old man in Tang costume shouted.

Old Zhou was still prevaricating, and when he heard the cry of the old man in Tang costume, he hurriedly looked over: "Brother Chang, what's wrong?" ”

"No, no......" The old man in Tang costume carried the cage, and even opened the small door of the cage and reached in to investigate. In an instant, he had a surprised expression on his face, and his brows furrowed: "It's really not right." ”

"Brother Chang, what's wrong?" Zhou Lao asked.

"Bird food cans are wrong." The old man in Tang costume muttered to himself, immediately looked at Wang Guan, and asked, "Young man, where is that bird food jar from yesterday?" ”

"Huh?"

Zhou Lao and the others were a little more surprised, in their impressions, the old man in Tang costume and Wang Guan should have just met, how to listen to the tone seems to have already met.

At the same time, Wang Guan smiled and said: "Chang Lao, you can see clearly, the bird food jar has not changed, it is the one from yesterday." ”

", I'm not old and dizzy." The old man in Tang costume blew his beard and glared: "Is the bird food jar the one from yesterday, can't I tell it?" (To be continued)
