Chapter 35: Painting

"Miss Judge, what are you laughing at? Don't you think our skills are inferior to yours? Hu Biyun stared at Miao Zhi with raised eyebrows.

Before Miao Zhi could speak, several people around Hu Biyun began to help.

"But no, of course people don't look down on us, and if you draw a picture, you and my sisters will be compared."

"What I said is that the people are beautiful and the skills are outstanding, and our sisters are really a bit of an axe in front of others." There was a sour feeling of pity in my words.

"Hmph, she has excellent skills, who knows if someone is overstepping her line." Hu Biyun stared at Miao Zhi with wide eyes, and snorted heavily, with a look of disgust.

Miao Zhi couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, at this moment she really wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, God, accept the tease sent by this group of monkeys.

Seeing that Miao Zhi didn't answer, and didn't mean to fight with them for half a point, Hu Biyun was a little angry, and her face turned red in a daze.

"Shen Miaozhi, what are you doing looking at us with that disdain? Do you want to compete with me? ”

What the? Miao Zhi, who was in the sky, let a burst of surprise come back to her senses.

"Miss Yun, I didn't mean that, several young ladies are all outstanding, not only beautiful music and dance, but also beautiful people." Miao Zhi spoke softly, her tone soothing and gentle.

Hu Biyun was a little deflated, this judge Miaozhi did not compete with herself, but said these words softly, as if she had hit a bag of cotton, and she couldn't do it at all.

Just when she froze in place for some reason, Wu Lingwan beside her smiled, patted her shoulder, and said, "Yo, Sister Zhi really has a clever mouth, which makes the sisters listen to it with joy." ”

As he spoke, he twisted his slender waist and walked to Old Lady Liu's side, "Old lady, don't blame Sister Yun for speaking recklessly. Sister Zhi gave you the jade Guanyin, carved vividly, into the wood three points, and the sister said that it was her own drawing. The sisters are inevitably a little nervous, isn't this thinking that they can see Sister Zhi's painting with their own eyes? ”

Looking at each other, Wu Lingwan tilted her head and smiled innocently at Old Madam Liu.

The delicate and soft voice eased the tense atmosphere a lot, and the old lady also believed it, and blamed Hu Biyun with love and reprimanded Hu Biyun in a low voice, "Where have you read your books, if it weren't for the girl Wan to explain to me, the old woman would have punished you, and I can't thank you Sister Wan." ”

The old lady glared at Hu Biyun, and then stretched out her hand towards her.

Hu Biyun hurriedly stepped forward and handed over the white and tender soft wattle, recognized her mistake in annoyance, pulled the corner of Wu Lingwan's clothes and grinned, and cast a provocative glance like Miao Zhi from time to time.

In front of you, you and me are watching a TV series? Miao Zhi was in a trance and wrung the handkerchief in her hand.

Obviously, Hu Biyun can't hide things in his heart, so he can't be afraid at all, and he has to be careful of Wu Lingwan, who is hiding needles in the cotton.

When I raised my eyes, I saw Wu Lingwan with half a piece of sunshine in her eyes, gentle and a little dark, like a snow-white poisonous snake, spitting out letters gracefully.

"Girl Zhi, come," Mrs. Liu didn't seem to see the clue, "since everyone wants to see your girl's painters, you will show them a hand today who have never seen the world." ”

The old lady sat steadily, and stretched out her hand to her as she spoke, with love at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

Miao Zhi sighed in her heart, and subconsciously walked over and handed over her soft palm.

"Can the old lady still allow Zhi'er to say it?" Alas, I just couldn't look down on this kind of loving gaze, so I sighed slightly in my heart and responded.

The maids quickly prepared the square table, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and then committed themselves to retreating.

Seeing this, Miao Zhi frowned slightly, thought for a moment before smiling, and whispered in the maid's ear for a while.

Everyone was a little puzzled and confused.

After a while, the little girl came back, holding a carbon rod in her hand and handing it to Miao Zhi.

"Miao Zhi will take the pen and paint now," his eyes wandered around the crowd, and then he buried himself in painting.

Hu Biyun looked at the black and ugly carbon rod in Miaozhi's hand, and couldn't stop laughing.

"Haha, old lady, this Miss Juan is really funny, I thought I was sending a maid to find some kind of treasure, it turned out to be a carbon rod that can't even be used for thrushes."

After hearing this, everyone covered their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs and laughed in a muffled voice, only Liang Zhujin, who was standing on the side, anxiously looked at Shen Miaozhi, who was silently bowing her head and concentrating on painting.

"Cloud girl, don't make trouble." Mrs. Liu drank lowly, and the laughter gradually faded away.

Half a cup of tea has passed, and a cup of tea has passed. In the silence, only a subtle rustling sound could be heard.

Miao Zhi carefully traced the painting on the table as if no one was around, and finally put away her pen and let out a long breath.

The maid next to her stepped forward and held the drawing paper and gave it to the old lady who couldn't sit still, and everyone was curious to come up and want to find out.

On the plain white paper is a simple black line, thick and thin, all of which are formed in one stroke, the old lady Liu in the painting is sitting in the chair with complex patterns, her face is full of kindness, and even the wrinkles are clearly visible, and the old lady Liu is really vividly painted.

"Good, good, the painting is so good, it's just another old woman. Come on, Zhi girl, tell sΓΉ old woman me, what kind of painting method are you, why have you never seen it? ”

The old lady asked the question in everyone's minds, this strange way of painting was really unheard of before, unseen, although there was no color, but the lines were clear, and the painting had both form and spirit.

"This is Miao Zhi bored to use for fun, always feel that the brush drawing is too awkward, I have tried to use charcoal to draw eyebrows, but it is too soft. By chance, I found a carbon rod in the small kitchen and drew it, but it was just right. The latter always made this method of painting, and slowly became proficient, and Zhi'er gave it a name, called sketching. ”

There is no way, I can only make it up, Miao Zhi smiled lightly, her eyes were half-hidden, and she still saw the corners of her mouth twitching slightly, and the blade-like gaze of Hu Biyun, who was quite unwilling, swept over.

said goodbye to Mrs. Liu, and exchanged pleasantries with Liang Zhujin for a while, then got up to say goodbye.

The yellow light of the setting sun spread across the land, and only the sound of the carriage echoed on the official road between the mountains and forests.

Entering the gate of the Bachelor's Mansion, Xi Hongfu whispered, then turned around and walked towards Ling Shuirong's garden.

Miao Zhi lowered her eyes at the emerald green that disappeared behind the corner door, and a wisp of unintended smile hung on the corner of her mouth.

Although Xi Hong is not as difficult to deal with as Jiang's mother, it is a dog next to Ling Shuirong, so she can't wait to report to Ling Shuirong. Alas, there is no way, I can only come and cover the water and earth.

When she came back from "Qinchun Garden", Miao Zhi was really tired, she didn't have time to eat dinner, and she fell asleep just with the embroidered pillow.
