Chapter Eighty-Three: Painting on the Spot
The smile on the corner of Yuan Li's mouth froze, looking at Luo Yu's sharp eyes, all the words were blocked in her mouth and there was no way to say it anymore, and then she felt the ridicule of others on her, Yuan Li only felt that she wanted to dig a hole and get in, and at the same time, her heart was also full of anger, she didn't expect that Luo Yu, who was usually taciturn and inconspicuous, spoke so sharply, this is Yuan Li of HP really regretted coming to Luo Yu to talk.
But regret doesn't help, what to do now is to get the matter done and save your reputation. Yuan Li slowly calmed down after being a little panicked at the beginning, slowly regained her composure, and looked at Luo Yu with a smile on her face, with some grievances on her face, "Fourth Miss, concubine didn't expect you to think of me like this." ”
In Yuan Li's heart, didn't you Luo Yu say that I wasn't sad enough? Now I'm going to grieve for you to see.
Yuan Li put on a weak and weeping expression, and said, "Fourth Miss, although the concubine is just a concubine in Luofu, although the concubine is just a vulgar maid, it doesn't mean that the concubine doesn't understand feelings, although the fourth lady's dance can't be understood by the concubine, but she will still feel it with her heart, that kind of sadness and sorrow, how can the concubine not feel it." Fourth Miss, the reason why I didn't show grief was only because ......"
Luo Yu's face was expressionless, but the disdainful mockery in his eyes was still clearly visible, "Oh, because of what? "Deliberately raised a tone on the word 'oh', and did not hide his contempt and ridicule for Yuan Li's pretentious posture. Yuan Li's attitude may not know that people who don't know her are really confused by her expression, but who is Luo Yu, she has lived in this Luo Mansion for more than ten years, from being bullied, to later having the ability to stop being bullied, in order to protect herself and protect Aunt Yun, she doesn't know how many tricks she has had with them in private, what kind of person Yuan Li is, she still doesn't know!
There is a saying that the person who knows you best is not your close person, nor yourself, but your opponent, your enemy. Because, knowing oneself and knowing the other side can not be defeated in a hundred battles. But why don't Yuan Li, Wei Qige and Yan Jiulin know about Luo Yu? Because no matter how hard they fought between them, Luo Yu never came forward in person. She won't give her opponents a chance to know about themselves, they may know that Luo Yu is against them, but they can't be sure.
Yuan Li looked at the ridicule on the corner of Luo Yu's mouth, resisted the urge to kill her, and continued, "Because I'm used to it!" The tone was full of helplessness and sadness. Yuan Li is indeed not lying, she is indeed used to it, but what she is used to depends on the understanding of others.
Anyway, in the eyes of most people, what she means by this means is that living in this kind of big family, no matter what the mood is, you must get used to smiling and getting used to being strong, which is something that everyone here has personally experienced. This is the helplessness of this big family, there is no freedom, there is no power to grieve, you have to smile happily at everyone, even if the other party is someone you hate very much, even your enemy, you have to smile right. This is what you must learn to live in such a place, the most helpless and the most pathetic.
Luo Xue was stunned for a moment when she heard Yuan Li's words, although she knew what Yuan Li really meant, Luo Xue also read what she wanted to express, and that was also the reason why Luo Xue wanted to leave the Cangwang Mansion and stay away from these battles. In her previous life, she was tired and tired because of those intrigues, and in this life, she just wants to find a quiet place to live peacefully, and it's not bad to travel around the mountains and rivers alive!
And Luo Yu just looked at her coldly after hearing this, "It seems that I still blame Aunt Yuan." The tone was still full of sarcasm.
"The fourth lady laughed, where dare the concubine." Yuan Li said very 'frightened', full of 'fear' and panic about Luo Yu, which is really pitiful.
"Okay, don't talk about it, it's a joke." Luo Wengong couldn't watch it on the side, not because he cared about Luo Yu and Yuan Li's quarrel, but in such a battle of words, he would only lose Luofu's face and lose his face.
Luo Yu didn't speak again, and Yuan Li also bowed very cooperatively, then retreated to her place and sat down very peacefully, without saying more.
"Xue Fei Niangniang, you can move on to the next item." After Luo Wengong showed his majesty to Luo Yu and Yuan Li, he said to Luo Xue with a smile.
Although Luo Xue is very idle these days, in fact, these performances are arranged by Luo Xue, so Luo Yu's show will be so exciting, Yan Jiulin doesn't know. But what Yan Jiulin didn't know was that Luo Yu would actually pick such a dance, Luo Xue didn't know, because she just arranged the order, and she didn't care about the rest, so Luo Xue didn't know how many times she was secretly said irresponsible by those who arranged the show, of course, Luo Xue just laughed at it.
Luo Xue smiled lightly and nodded, and Luo Yu also walked to the side and sat down, feeling that as her eyes moved, she still had a cold face and no expression, but this did not prevent those people from chasing her enthusiasm.
Luo Xue got up again and stepped forward and said, "Everyone, be quiet! Suddenly, the garden, which was still a little whispering, immediately quieted down, and they all looked at Luo Xue one by one, waiting for her next step.
Luo Xue said with a light smile, "Just now we saw the embroidery that can be regarded as the quintessence of the Moliu Kingdom, and we also enjoyed the ingenious dance of the four sisters of the palace, I believe that many young ladies who have not yet performed are a little eager to try." As he spoke, he glanced at the audience and saw some women smiling shyly.
Luo Xue smiled and continued, "Next, let's take a look at the drawing skills of the young ladies. The women of our Moliu country, it can be said that they are involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they are not allowed to let them go to the slightest, our current queen mother has also been on the battlefield to kill the enemy, but who knows that our queen mother is not only a female general who does not let women shave her eyebrows, but her calligraphy and painting are a must. ”
When everyone heard Luo Xue's words, their eyes widened in surprise unconsciously, they all heard that the Queen Mother had accompanied the Emperor to fight and kill the enemy when she was young, but the Queen Mother's calligraphy and painting were excellent, but not many people had heard of it. However, there were also some people present who knew the former reputation of the Queen Mother, and when they heard Luo Xue's words, they couldn't help but start to recall.
When Luo Xue saw this scene, she immediately smiled and said, "Everyone, this palace is fortunate to get a painting treasure from the Queen Mother!" Speaking of this, Luo Xue stopped, smiled and looked at these people, her eyes suddenly brightened, and her breathing became heavier, the Empress Dowager's Mobao, that value is incalculable. Everyone stared at Luo Xue, as if they wanted to see the ink treasure from Luo Xue.
Luo Xue smiled and continued, "Although we are not here to compete for anything, we have to come up with some prizes to motivate everyone so that everyone can do their best to show themselves!" Luo Xue's words paused here again, arousing everyone's curiosity, and they were all speculating whether Luo Xue would use the Queen Mother's pen and ink as a prize this time.
Seeing this, Luo Xue smiled, and seemed to be quite reluctant to speak, "Hey, so, I have to take this heavyweight prize as a reward for the person who is recognized as the best at painting this time." As soon as Luo Xue's voice fell, she was surprised to see that those people's eyes widened, it seems that this prize is indeed very attractive.
When Luo Xue spoke, the family of Luofu moved a lot of drawing boards to the middle of the garden under Luo Xue's instructions, everyone was waiting for Luo Xue to say the rules, Luo Xue smiled lightly, "There is no time requirement for painting today, and there is no topic requirement, you can decide for yourself what you paint, and for the sake of fairness, you can't just give you a chance." Sons of adults, if you are interested, you can also participate, but if the paintings made by the sons are not as good as the young ladies, then you have to think about it, right? ”
Luo Xue's slightly humorous words made everyone present laugh unconsciously, some men were aroused by Luo Xue's words, but aroused the heroic feelings in their hearts, and there was a prince of the family who suddenly stood up and said, "Where is the Snow Concubine, it is our luck to be able to paint with the young ladies, even if it is not as good as the young ladies, then we are not capable of these sons, how can there be anything else to say, Niang Niang can start now!" ”
When this son finished speaking, many sons immediately followed suit, obviously also aroused the pride and ambition in their hearts, Luo Xue smiled when she saw this, and didn't say anything more, and went directly to the topic, "Okay, since everyone has said so, then this palace will not say more, now you can choose a drawing board and start painting, as long as you want, you can end it whenever you want, but this palace thinks that everyone should not let themselves be the last object for everyone to wait for!" ”
Luo Xue's words fell, causing another burst of laughter, and then, sparsely, people who were willing to participate in the painting stood in front of the drawing board one after another and began to paint themselves.
Luo Xue chuckled and returned to her place, then turned her head to look at Luo Yu's place, seeing that Luo Yu was still sitting in her place indifferent, Luo Xue smiled, "What, the fourth sister is not ready to play?" ”
The ridicule in Luo Xue's words was quite meaningful, but she could also hear a little seriousness. Luo Yu looked at Luo Xue and frowned, as if he was also considering whether to go on the field to paint once. It's just that she doesn't like to hang out in front of people in the first place, and she really doesn't want to preach in front of people anymore, and it makes her very uncomfortable just now, although she is not afraid, but just a little repulsive.
But before Luo Yu could figure out what the result was, Luo Xue said, "Fourth sister, if you want to achieve your goal, it doesn't seem to be enough to rely on the dance just now!" Luo Xue raised her wine glass and raised it lightly at Luo Yu, and then drank it in one gulp.
Luo Yu raised her eyebrows helplessly after Luo Xue's words fell, sighed lightly and slowly got up, and those who did not participate in the painting looked at Luo Yu in surprise when they saw Luo Yu stand up, and they were all guessing what she wanted to do, and now Luo Yu's every move has become the object of everyone's attention. Seeing Luo Yu slowly walking towards the crowd who were painting step by step, everyone couldn't help but wonder in surprise, could it be that this fourth lady of the Luo family still wanted to participate in painting, if she could also make a splash when she painted, it would really be amazing.
And beside Luo Xue, whose eyes moved with Luo Yu, Sikong Cangling stopped drinking and said lightly, "I didn't expect you to give away the painting of the imperial grandmother so easily." There seemed to be some dissatisfaction and chagrin in his tone, the painting was sent to the Cangwang Mansion by the Queen Mother after entering the palace last time, and it was said that it was a meeting gift to Luo Xue, and Sikong Cangling didn't think much about it at that time, but now it seems that maybe Luo Xue has already begun to count such a day.
Surpassing those official women is not Luo Xue's ultimate requirement for Luo Yu, let those official sons participate together, if Luo Yu still stands out among them, then it will be a real blockbuster. You must know that although Mo Liu's women are involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, women have always been less proficient than men in calligraphy and painting, which is a consistent thing. In addition to a queen mother who came out of the year, even men can only compare with the calligraphy and painting of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Luo Xue is now taking out the calligraphy and painting of the queen mother, the meaning is self-evident.
"Things have to be used in the right place, and if they are not used in the right place, no matter how good they are, there is no meaning in them. Besides, I don't give the painting of the imperial grandmother to others, but to my own family, right? Luo Xue responded with a smile.
Sikong Cangling hooked her lips disapprerovingly, "Are you so confident that she finally got the painting of the imperial grandmother?" ”
Luo Xue smiled and didn't speak, but what she meant was to tell Sikong Cangling that she was very confident in Luo Yu. Luo Xue didn't answer, Sikong Cangling didn't speak anymore, the two of them hid their thoughts, and their eyes were on the person in between.
Speaking of Luo Yu, sure enough, Luo Yu walked to an idle drawing board as expected, stood and pondered for a while, probably thinking about what to paint, and when she was pondering, the people around her who were originally painting seriously also noticed her existence, and showed surprised expressions almost at the same time. After Luo Yu's dance, no one would believe that she had no ability, and now she is standing here, although she has not yet begun to paint, but just standing here makes them a little worried, it seems that who can finally get the pen and ink of the Queen Mother is hanging.
But after a moment of amazement, they threw themselves back into their paintings, after all, although their paintings may not be the best one, but standing here and sighing blindly is of no avail!
Luo Yu stood in front of the drawing board, did not lift the pen but stretched out her right index finger, and the most surprising thing is that from the time she came in to the present, except for Luo Xue is face will be softened, the rest of the time Luo Yu, who has an indifferent face, actually closed her eyes slightly at this time, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and her fingers slid lightly on the drawing board, as if she was starting to build her painting in her mind.
After a long time, when the people around her were almost half finished, Luo Yu opened her eyes, but in an instant, the light in her eyes almost snatched the heartbeat of countless people, what kind of eyes were they, what kind of eyes were they, they were no longer the kind of indifference and no waves they saw on weekdays, but full of color, with warmth and joy that they had never seen before.
Even Luo Xue has never seen Luo Yu like this, I didn't expect her painting to be so special, is it because she really brought herself into the artistic conception of the painting? But I'm afraid there will be countless people here who are wondering, how can they be immersed in the artistic conception of painting before they even start talking? Luo Xue hooked her lips and smiled, she should have already drawn that painting in her mind!
