Chapter 142: Shame
Shu Jinhua felt that God might be really too lonely, too lonely, so he used them to amuse, relieve boredom, and be happy.
Looking at Shu Yu'an's increasingly blue face, Shu Jinhua sighed that although Sima Yi was a brainless person, she had to give people a thumbs up in her ability to annoy the Shu family.
The auction has been going on for a long time, and Shu Jinhua really bought a few gadgets, but just after a genuine painting of Wei Qizhi came to the stage, the current situation appeared.
"One million and three hundred thousand between Tianzi No. 6!" The auctioneer in the hall on the first floor shouted.
Shu Yu'an narrowed his eyes and rang the bidding bell belonging to Tianzi No. 2.
"One million four hundred thousand between Tianzi No. 2!" The auction price of this authentic painting of Wei Qizhi is 200,000 yuan, and now there are only two bidders left between Tianzi No. 2 and No. 6. But even though there are only two buyers left, the price has been rising.
Shu Yu'an's original ideal price was to buy this genuine painting within 800,000 taels, but what he didn't expect was that the Tianzi No. 6 room between the Sima Lu brothers and sisters had been competing with him.
This made him deeply believe that Sima Lu's brother and sister looked at him unpleasantly.
"One and a half million between Tianzi No. 6!"
"One million six hundred thousand between Tianzi No. 2!"
β¦β¦
It wasn't until Tianzi No. 6 called two million taels that Shu Yu'an sighed, shook his head, and smiled bitterly, "It seems that this painting has nothing to do with me." β
Hearing Shu Yu'an say this, Shu Jinhua knew. The third brother is about to give up.
"Third brother, you came all the way for this painting?" Shu Jinhua smiled, Shu Yu'an only bought a painting of Wei Qizhi last time he came to Xiuzhen Pavilion, and this time he only rang the bell for this painting.
She knew that her father and third brother were both people who loved calligraphy and painting. But there are not many people who love it so much and are willing to spend a lot of money to bid. She knew very well that most of the money in Shu Yue and Shu Yu'an's hands was spent on calligraphy and painting.
Shu Yue'an nodded, "Every time Xiu Zhen Pavilion gets the real thing, he will go to sue me." The six calligraphy and paintings of Wei Qizhi that my father now has in his hands were all bought from Xiuzhen Pavilion. β
"Presumably, many people know that my father and third brother love calligraphy and painting?" Shu Jinhua felt that things would not be so simple. And no matter how you think about it, I feel that something is strange.
"Not many people, it's the officials of Tai'an City, who know about this." Shu Yuan also sensed that something was wrong. Said suspiciously, "Sima Lu naturally knows about it, but looking at his actions today, could it be that he made a special trip to block me?" β
"Forget it, it's just one painting, if you can't get this one, you'll have a chance to buy something else next time." Shu Jinqi has no opinion on calligraphy and painting, and she also doesn't understand why her father and younger brother can be fascinated by a calligraphy and painting. In her opinion, these all need to be offered calligraphy and paintings. It's so impractical.
"Yes, sister, you want to open it." Shu Yu'an never entangled too much with Shu Jinqi on calligraphy and painting, and he knew that his sister couldn't look down on himself and his father's impulse to do everything for calligraphy and painting.
A few others felt pity though. But he could only say a few words of comfort. This calligraphy and painting finally fell into the hands of the Sima Lu brothers and sisters in the sixth room, and it was impossible for them to go up and grab it.
Shu Yu'an, who was in the back of the auction, was in no mood and sat wilting and drinking tea.
Shu Jinhua fell in love with a pair of palm beads carved from mutton fat white jade, from the size to the texture, they are lifelike, so that Shu Jinhua never left at the first glance of the past.
Ultimately. This pair of palm beads was bagged by Shu Jinhua at a price of 1.8 million taels.
If it was before. Shu Jinhua may not have much love for this kind of playful palm beads, but it can be seen that after Qin Su's palm beads that never left her body at that time, she actually paid attention to this thing.
In fact, if you want to talk about the preciousness of Cheng dΓΉ, it is naturally the precious palm beads of mutton fat and white jade, which are rare in this world. Although Qin Su's pair is an antiquity of Taizong, in addition to this name, that pair of palm beads is actually really a very ordinary walnut.
However, in the name of Taizong, these two walnuts that have been around for hundreds of years can still raise a reserve price of millions. If not, the Ziyi people in the gambling house would not be so light, so they let Qin Su replace millions of silver with palm beads.
Shu Jinhua thought about when he could give these two palm beads of mutton fat jade to Qin Su, imagining his expression when he saw his gift, Shu Jinhua was full of anticipation.
In the whole afternoon of the auction, Shu Jinqi bought a total of four things, Shu Jinqi also fell in love with a set of black pearls made of heads, but fortunately, the women of the Great Xia Dynasty did not love pearls as obsessed with modern women, Shu Jinqi won the price of 50,000 more than the low price.
The brothers and sisters of the Chen family and the senior sister Jin Jin also bought their favorite items, except for Shu Yu'an, everyone can be said to have returned with a full load.
After the auction, Shu Jinhua and others went to pick up their things. Tang Xueqing personally accompanied Shu Jinhua and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, that picture of Wei Qizhi's song was originally prepared for Lord Shu, this time for people who love calligraphy and painting, I only sent a letter to Lord Shu, but I didn't expect it to ......."
Tang Xueqing was really almost angry and vomited blood, and she took great pains to maintain her relationship with Shu Jinhua. Shu Yue's father and son love calligraphy and painting, and everyone knows it in Tai'an City. The authentic works of Wei Qizhi that she has received over the years have also been sold to Shu Yue one after another. It's not that she doesn't know how to do business and doesn't know how to give gifts. It's that she knows the incorruptibility of the father and son, and if she really sends the calligraphy and painting to the door, it will be bad.
So over the years, Tang Xueqing has only sent the news of calligraphy and painting to Shu Yue, and in terms of price, she will more or less put some water. There hasn't been anything wrong for several years, but I didn't expect it to be completely messed up today.
"Sister Tang, don't say that, you are in business, and you are a guest when you come to your door. Besides, this thing was originally obtained by the highest price, and since the third brother has given up, he has no intention of embarrassing you. Shu Jinhua smiled and patted Tang Xueqing's hand and said comfortingly.
Tang Xueqing stood beside the Shu family's carriage. Glancing at the carriage in front of Shu Yu'an, he whispered, "Don't hide it." In fact, there is a small print in my hand, which is also the true handwriting of Wei Qizhi. I was going to give it to Brother Ling as a gift for this painting, but when something happened, I temporarily put the words away again. I know that Brother Ling will not accept it today, and if I get calligraphy and paintings next time, I will send them together. β
Shu Jinhua raised his eyebrows, although the small words that Tang Xueqing said as a gift should not be too precious. But as Wei Qizhi's true work, I am afraid that it will not be less than 100,000 taels. Tang Xueqing was so generous that she wanted to give it away as a gift. It really surprised her.
"Let Sister Tang break the bank." Shu Jinhua did not open her mouth to refuse, she knew that Tang Xueqing was measured, so she gladly accepted it.
"What is not a bank, but I have done a lot of business in the bachelor's house. You're a big buyer for me. Tang Xueqing put her mind at ease, knowing that Shu Jinhua did not estranged her, and she also lost a big sigh.
But Tang Xueqing chatted a few words, her work in Xiu Zhen Pavilion was really not easy, and the two were just talking about the past, and Tang Xueqing was urged four times by the work in the store.
There was no way, Tang Xueqing could only owe herself and go back first.
The two double-frame luxury carriages of the Bachelor's Mansion were about to go around the avenue. The Sima brothers and sisters who made Shu Jinhua and Shu Yu'an both heartbroken appeared again.
After the carriage stopped, Shu Jinhua poked his head out and asked the driver who was driving, "What's the situation?" How did you park the car? β
"Miss Huisi, it's Miss Sima from the Wenguo Mansion, who stopped in front." The coachman explained the situation and Shu Jinhua clearly.
"Sima Yi?" Everyone in the carriage also heard clearly, and Shu Jinqi couldn't help but wonder if he was puzzled.
"What the hell is going on with her?" Shu Jinqi muttered dissatisfiedly.
She knows Sima Yi's thoughts, but now that Shu Yu'an has set a wedding date, she is still messing around. Everyone feels that their hearts are in their hearts.
"Sister, don't be angry, I'll go down and take a look." Shu Jinhua is also curious. What is this Sima Yi's plan?
After speaking, he jumped out of the car neatly, and Shu Jinhua walked in front of Shu Yu'an, who had already gotten out of the car and theorized with the Sima brothers and sisters.
"I said no!" Shu Yu'an was obviously not lightly angry, the two sword eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and he shouted in a deep voice.
"I said it was for Master Shu, not for you, what do you mean by refusing? Can you make a decision for Master Shu? Maybe Master Shu likes this one? Sima Yi held a long scroll filled with calligraphy and paintings in his hand, stomped his feet and said coquettishly.
Shu Jinhua didn't know what the two were arguing about, so he slowly moved back two steps and asked Chen Kedao, "Big cousin, what is the situation?" β
Chen Ke held his forehead, couldn't cry or laugh, and explained, "This Miss Sima ...... It's really interesting. Didn't she take that picture of Wei Qizhi's song, originally Yu An was heartbroken, but who would have thought that this Miss Sima would say that this painting was specially given to her uncle. No, I stopped the carriage, just to ask Yu'an to accept this painting. β
"Huh?" Shu Jinhua was stunned on the spot, she didn't expect that it was Sima Yi who had been competing with her third brother for most of the day, and they made a special trip to give it to her father.
"Why did she give her father the paintings she bought at a high price?" Shu Jinhua couldn't understand it for a moment, in fact, it wasn't to blame that she couldn't figure it out, there must be few people who could understand Sima Yi's thoughts.
"Who knows." Chen Ke shrugged, he didn't understand either.
ββ¦β¦ I said, I won't take it! Shu Yu'an's patient temper must have been worn out by Sima Yi, and his voice couldn't help but be a little higher.
Sima Yi was also anxious, and her eyes turned red. The hands holding the roll tightened, pursed their lips, and walked directly in front of Shu Yu'an.
Raise your hands and hand the roll to Shu Yu'an, there is a posture that you can try it if you don't take it.
Rubbing the corners of his forehead, Shu Yu'an took two steps back, changed his tone and said, "Miss Sima, I said it, neither I nor my father will accept this painting." Miss Sima should go back to the house quickly, it's not too early, presumably the prince and the lady are also worried about you. β
When Sima Yi heard Shu Yu'an say that he would not accept the painting, his face was about to collapse, and tears were circling in his eyes. But when he heard the one behind, he was excited again, and regardless of the fact that the painting in his hand was a precious thing of more than two million taels, he threw it on the ground casually and grabbed Shu Yu'an's hands.
"You...... Do you care about me? Sima Yi eagerly looked at Shu Yu'an in front of him.
Shu Yu'an was obviously taken aback by Sima Yi's bold move. Hurriedly brushed away Sima Yi's hand and snatched it to the side.
"Miss Sima, please respect yourself!" Shu Yu'an gritted his teeth. I couldn't help but wipe the wrist that was held by Sima Yi. You must know that he and Wang Wenrou have never had such direct contact! Since he was ten years old, he has rarely had contact with the female playmates he spent with when he was young. For so many years, although he has always pretended to be Wang Wenrou in his heart, he thinks he is a righteous man and a gentleman, and his unreasonable behavior has never happened. But who would have thought that today he would have such close contact with Sima Yi.
"I ...... I ......" Sima Yi also realized that he was impulsive after being brushed away by Shu Yu'an. But she didn't regret it.
It's aggrieved enough to think about it, she has also known Shu Yu'an since she was a child. And she likes Shu Yue'an's things, and many people know about it. It's just that what she didn't expect was that the person she had in mind would eventually marry her rival from childhood to adulthood.
When I heard the news that Shu Yuan and Wang Wenrou were married. She locked herself in her room and cried for two days. But she was not discouraged, but became more and more determined to marry Shu Yu'an.
You must know that with her identity, there are many young men in the Great Xia Dynasty who want to ask to marry her, but she is all about Shu Yu'an, even if it is to be a concubine for him, she is willing.
After thinking about it for a whole month, she decided that since she wanted to marry Shu Yu'an. In addition to being loved by Shu Yu'an, it is also very important to maintain his father.
When she got the news from her brother that Xiu Zhen Pavilion had another painting of Wei Qizhi. She felt her chance.
Everyone in Tai'an City knows that Shu Yue, a scholar of the Imperial Palace, loves calligraphy and painting, especially the handwriting of the great Confucian Wei Qizhi. She felt that this was her chance, and she grinded her brother for several days before he let go and take her up.
Presumably God is also willing to help her, just before Wei Qizhi's painting is about to be auctioned. My brother was suddenly in a hurry, and he left her behind and left in a hurry. That's when she had the opportunity to photograph the real thing.
Holding the painting in his hand, Sima Yi made up his mind that he must take Shu Yue down. Isn't there such a sentence, eating people with short mouths, that person is soft-handed, presumably after Shu Yue accepted her paintings, it is impossible to object to Shu Yu'an marrying her.
But the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is a little different from what she imagined, no, it is a big difference.
said that she was soft-handed, and was bought by her to her favor? Why? Why did Shu Yu'an reject his paintings? You don't have to spend money to buy it yourself, there is such a good thing, presumably a person will gladly accept it, right? But who can sue her for this!
was not only rejected by Shu Yu'an, but also deeply disliked by him!
Sima Yi was a little overwhelmed, stunned in front of Shu Yu'an, biting her lip, not knowing what to say.
"Yi'er!" Sima Lu, who didn't know when he would come back, shouted urgently, and walked quickly to Sima Yi's side, "Yi'er, why aren't you waiting for me in the car?" β
Sima Lu has one head and two big, his younger sister has been a little bully since she was a child, as long as she goes out, she will inevitably cause some trouble.
He just went to deal with some urgent matters, and before leaving, he told his sister to wait in the car after the auction was over, but he knew that after he came back, he didn't see his sister.
After asking her personal maid, I found out that this girl actually went to stop the carriage of the Shu family.
"Yi'er, what's wrong with you?" Realizing that his sister's state was not quite right, Sima Lu's heart that he had just put down hung again.
Sima Yi didn't say anything, but after seeing Sima Lu, the tears that she had endured for a long time finally fell, and they smashed on the placket on her chest.
Sima Lu knows her sister's temperament, she usually bullies others, and it is rare to see her cry once. Now crying so sadly and sadly makes Sima Lu wonder.
"Brother Xian, I don't know what happened?" Seeing that Sima Yi didn't speak, Sima Lu saw Shu Yu'an with a tangled face standing aside, so he could only ask.
Shu Yu'an let out a long sigh, closed his eyes slightly, shook his head and said, "Brother Sima, I'm afraid Sister Ling is a little uncomfortable, so let's go back and rest as soon as possible." β
Sima Lu was stunned for a moment, and his face became a little ugly. From Shu Yu'an's words, it can be heard that his sister must have caused some trouble again, otherwise Shu Yu'an would not have spoken in this tone.
arched his hand, Sima Lu lost the interest in continuing to greet him, and took Sima Yi's hand and was about to turn around and leave.
"I'm not leaving...... Sima Yi cried breathlessly, but he still stubbornly refused to leave.
Sima Lu frowned, holding back his anger and whispered. "It's a shame that you haven't lost enough? Do you want to lose all the face of the Wenguo Mansion before you stop? β
Sima Yi shook his head and said unwillingly, "Brother...... I...... I haven't sent the painting out yet. β
"What painting?" Sima Lu was puzzled. "No matter what the painting, go home first."
After that, he took Sima Yi's hand and was about to leave.
Sima Yi was dragged by Sima Lu, and before he had time to say more, he had already walked towards his carriage.
"Master Sima, wait a minute." Shu Jinhua hurriedly shouted.
Sima Lu paused, and stopped. Turning around, he asked. "Miss Shu Si, what's the matter?"
Shu Jinhua picked up the roll on the ground and dusted it off. stepped forward and handed it to Sima Ludao, "This is the calligraphy and painting that Miss Sima bought, and it was accidentally dropped." β
Sima Lu blushed a little and took it in a little panic. Nodding and thanking, "Thank you, Miss Shusi, for the trouble." β
Shaking his head with a smile, Shu Jinhua didn't care, "It's nothing." β
Without waiting for Sima Lu to speak again, Shu Jinhua turned around and returned to Chen Ke's side.
Sima Lu's eyes flashed, he didn't say anything, pulled Sima Yi into his carriage, and then drove away.
Wait for Sima's carriage to leave. Only then did Shu Jinhua ask Shu Yu'an in a low voice, "Third brother, Sima Yi is not dead yet?" β
"What doesn't give up. It's nonsense! Okay, get back in the car, and you're going home. Shu Yu'an couldn't cry or laugh, but he finally put his mind at ease and took away Shu Jin's painting, and the group set off again.
After returning home. Shu Yuan struggled for a long time, but still told Shu Yue about Sima Yi's earth-shattering move. Shu Yue was equally surprised. He really couldn't understand how the shrewd Duke Wen and the prince of Wen Guogong had made such a big mistake here in the third generation.
However, this matter has not been publicized for too long, presumably the Wenguo Mansion has come forward to solve the matter.
Shu Jinhua didn't take this matter to heart, and two days later, after learning that Qin Su was finally free, she took the mutton fat jade palm beads she bought in Xiuzhen Pavilion and went to Prince Heng's mansion with joy.
"How's it going, it's settled?" Xiao Si took a sip of the pastel teacup of the twig, and Shu Jinhua asked casually.
The reason why Qin Su came back in a hurry was to solve the matter of the Empress Dowager's whim to give Qin Shen a draft, and now that more than ten days have passed, there is no rumor in Tai'an City, presumably Qin Su has solved this sudden matter.
Qin Su's peach blossom eyes stared at Shu Jinhua for a moment, and one hand was still holding Shu Jinhua's hand, stroking it gently. The feeling of skin-to-skin kissing made him love it. Since the two had in-depth contact, Qin Su has fallen in love with the feeling of touching Shu Jin's paintings, and carefully experiencing her white porcelain-like skin, so that his fatigue these days has been swept away.
"Well, it's okay." Qin Su said absentmindedly.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Qin Su's abnormality, Shu Jinhua immediately became nervous.
Shaking his head, Qin Su saw that Shu Jinhua was not staring at the snacks on the table, so he simply hugged the person into his arms, rubbed his lips on her tender white cheeks, and said in a muffled voice, "It's nothing, I just miss you." β
Shu Jinhua was tickled by the breath that Qin Su sprayed on his face, giggled, and said while hiding, "Don't make trouble, take a look at what I brought you." β
As he spoke, he handed a delicate Nanmu box to Qin Su.
"What is it?" Qin Su took it and asked.
"Can't you just see it?" Shu Jinhua never took the initiative to give a gift, and after handing it to Qin Su, he successfully pleased Qin Su with an expectant and tangled expression.
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Qin Su temporarily stopped kissing Shu Jinhua, and slowly called the box in his hand.
Two carved lifelike white jade palm beads lie quietly in the nanmu box paved with gold silk cloth, and the delicate and warm texture and luster of the mutton fat jade make these two palm beads more noble.
Qin Su watched quietly and didn't say a word.
Shu Jinhua went from initial anticipation to frustration, and finally asked Shengsheng, "Hmm...... Forget it, I'll take it back to my father, this thing is also suitable for people his age......"
"What was sent, is there a reason to go back?" Qin Su Shi Ran said, a pair of seductive peach blossom eyes full of smiles.
Shu Jinhua was stunned for a moment, lightly slapped Qin Su's chest, and said shyly, "People still think you don't like it, who made you silent, and you don't have any expression at all." β
"Thank you, Scarlet, I like it very much." Qin Su covered the box, and then hugged Shu Jinhua tightly in his arms, his chin against the top of her hair, and there was a trace of choking in his voice. (To be continued)
