Chapter 189: Authenticity
He Yiyao listened casually to Gao Qianlei and Li Guan, while quietly looking at the surrounding furnishings. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
She was astonished to find a tree-shaped candlestick hanging in the middle and four corners of the box, each with six branches, on each of which was lit a thick white candle, and the bright and soft light emitted by nearly thirty candles was evenly sprinkled and illuminated every corner of the room.
The lamps in the corners of the house decorated with melon-shaped lampshades are purely ornamental, but because the box has a high roof and an open layout, it is easy to ignore those candlesticks when you come in.
In addition to the candlestick, what surprised He Yiyao even more was that the jade porcelain vases resting on the Duobao Pavilion and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall looked so ...... It's like an authentic antique with a lot of value.
Especially the Jianlan picture hanging on the wall behind the bookcase, the more she looked at it, the more it looked like the authentic handiwork of Dai Shuhuai in the previous dynasty.
Dai Shuhuai's Jianlan picture has been handed down very little, and the reason why she noticed this painting is because she has a collection of Dai Shuhuai's Jianlan picture copied by Zhu Xian at home, and her mother loves it like a treasure and often takes it out to enjoy.
However, with such a precious ancient painting, how could the people of the brewery hang it out as a decoration with a swagger?
Don't they know the value of the painting?
Probably not, even if the people in the brewery don't have knowledge, it's impossible for Mr. Ye not to see it, right?
The only explanation is that the painting is a high imitation of a fake.
Using fakes as decorations is a very cheap imitation, no matter how real the imitation is......
He Yiyao's face couldn't help showing a little disdain.
"Yiyao, what are you looking at, looking so seriously?" Gao Qianlei was keenly aware of her absent-mindedness, and followed her gaze to look at the painting on the wall, "Is there anything wrong with that painting?" Why did she stare at it? ”
"It's nothing, I just think this painting is ...... Very well drawn. He Yiyao came back to his senses and commented very politely.
Her cultivation did not allow her to speak such contemptuous words.
When the people in the room heard this, they all looked at each other.
Li Wan also raised his eyes and swept it, and said in a very flat tone: "Oh, it's Dai Shuhuai's Jianlan diagram, it's really a good painting." ”
The determined tone made He Yiyao stunned.
At this time, Dong Linzhi had already gotten up and walked over to take a closer look, turned around and smiled: "If it is really Dai Shuhuai's true handiwork, Miss He, or you have vision, we haven't noticed!" ”
He Yiyao's eyes widened in flattery: "I also look at it casually, it feels a bit like ......" His cheeks turned red involuntarily.
But she still had doubts in her heart, and asked with a little surprise: "However, is this painting really Dai Shuhuai's real work?" ”
Dong Linzhi nodded: "It's true, I have seen Dai Shuhuai's Jianlan picture in the palace, and this painting is indeed genuine." ”
He Yiyao believed it and said with emotion: "The brewing workshop is worthy of being the most elegant place in the capital, such a generous effort!" ”
Gao Qianlei was not good at this, listening to their conversation, her face couldn't help but show amazement, she felt that tonight was really worth it, and she could appreciate such a precious famous painting!
Dong Linzhi touched his chin and said: "It's strange, I'm also a frequent visitor here, why haven't I seen any valuable ancient paintings hanging on the walls here before?" ”
He was full of curiosity for a while, and asked Miaohan to come in and ask questions.
This box was arranged by her, and she must know the name of the painting.
Miao Han thought something was wrong and hurried over.
Without waiting for her to take a breath, Dong Linzhi had already said: "Why is there a picture of Dai Shuhuai's Jianlan here?" ”
Miao Han was stunned for a moment, seeing so many pairs of eyes staring at him in the room, Dong Sanye frowned even more, and couldn't help but be very worried.
Don't they like the painting?
Or don't like Dai Shuhuai's paintings?
She thought that there were indeed people who didn't like Dai Shuhuai, and preferred Deng Tong, who was also a famous scholar in the previous dynasty, and the difference between the two has always been a topic that literati are very keen on......
"This ...... Slaves and maidservants also do as they are told. She said in distress.
Dong Linzhi glared: "Whose order?" Mr. Ye? ”
Miaohan nodded, glanced at Li Guan, and replied cautiously: "Mr. Ye instructed the slave maid to arrange this place, and also opened a private warehouse for the slave maid to choose some suitable antique calligraphy and paintings to use as decorations, saying that Miss Li has a high eye, and ordinary things are only afraid to look down on ...... The slave maid originally picked a piece of Deng Tong's bluegrass, but Mr. Ye said that Miss Li once played against him and lost two Deng Tong's paintings to him...... So the slave maid changed to Dai Shuhuai's painting. ”
The box was silent for a long time.
He Yiyao and Gao Qianlei looked at each other.
Dong Linzhi was stunned for a short time, and then gave Li Wan a thumbs up in admiration.
Li Wan only felt extremely embarrassed.
Who knew that a painting of Dai Shuhuai would lead to a matter between her and Ye Zicheng, now it's okay, it's hard for He Yiyao and them to be impressed by her!
Thanks to Ye Zicheng's blessing, she really showed off her high-profile today......
"Ahem...... Miaohan, you go down first. She said to Miaohan, who was standing on the sidelines at a loss.
Miao Han was still a little foggy, and retreated with the anxiety that she had done something wrong.
Dong Linzhi rarely saw Li Guan's appearance like this, and quipped: "When you also play a game of chess with me, let me also win an ancient painting or something from you!" ”
Li Wan pouted: "I'm bad at chess, I know it in my own heart, I don't need you to remind me ......"
Dong Linzhi laughed: "Do you know that you still dare to play against Mr. Ye, is there something wrong with your brain?" Or do you have too many old paintings at home to put them? ”
“…… You're enough, are you happy poking me in the sore spot? Li Guanpi looked at him with a smile.
Dong Linzhi knew that this was a sign that she was angry, and hurriedly lowered her head to cover her mouth, but her shoulders were still trembling slightly.
The conversation between the two broke the silence in the room.
He Yiyao's gaze at Li Wan became very complicated.
Gao Qianlei has often been in contact with Li Guan recently, and after being surprised, she quickly returned to her normal mind.
"Guan'er, it turns out that you are so familiar with Mr. Ye!" She exclaimed, undisguised her curiosity and envy, "Do you often associate with Mr. Ye?" Have you ever been to his mansion? I heard that Mr. Ye is the most elegant person in the capital, and where he lives, Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum is indispensable, is it true? ”
Li Wan liked her directness and said with a smile: "I don't come and go with Mr. Ye very often, and occasionally I go to his house to sit and sit, but I just play chess and talk with him in the study." There was indeed bamboo planted outside his study, but he didn't see anything else. ”
She had tried her best to make her relationship with Ye Zicheng as shallow, but Gao Qianlei still showed a look of envy: "Mr. Ye must like you very much, even when you come to the brewery to listen to a song, he will order someone to rearrange the box according to your preferences." Unlike others, who plan in every possible way, they may not be able to talk to Mr. Ye! (To be continued.) )
