Chapter 118: Pretending to be confused
Three days later, Su Qiqi showed the sketch in his hand to Ji Wenchen, and when he saw the whole picture with a clear mark, he stared at Su Qiqi for a long time before moving away, making her feel like a thief!
Ji Wenchen looked at Su Qiqi's eyes and asked seriously: "Is this really painted by Qiqi?" β
Su Qiqi nodded unnaturally and said, "Of course I painted it, doesn't Senior Brother believe me?" β
Ji Wenchen shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't believe you, I just feel too surprised!" This painting is not something that ordinary people can draw, could it be that Qiqi learned to draw this picture from a dream? β
It's not good to always use an excuse, there are too many excuses, and it is impossible not to arouse the suspicion of others. If Ji Wenchen treats her as a monster, won't she be miserable in her life? So Su Qiqi pretended to be confused and said, "Senior brother, do you want to learn this picture?" I used to read and write with my friends under the big tree, didn't I have no pen and paper, so I used to write with branches, and scribbled as I wrote. Later, we said that when we grew up, we would build a big house and marry a beautiful daughter-in-law, and we would be able to paint! β
Ji Wenchen looked at her deeply, he didn't know whether to say that his little junior brother was a genius or weird. Of course, no matter what he is, he is his own junior brother.
"Hehe, you're painting, but you're really drawing. This picture can be drawn by someone who doesn't have a few years of experience, but it's a pity that the senior brother's ability is limited, otherwise if you are sent to learn to draw, you will definitely have a chance. β
{}{small} said 3w.ybdu Su Qiqi is sweating again, this senior brother always forgets to let himself have a chance?
Qi Sanming, who was on the side, only heard Su Qiqi say that he wanted to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law, and ran over to Zhou Zhengqiang and said, "Senior brother, little uncle said that he wants to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law!" Come and see! β
Su Qiqi's eyes were white, and he really wanted to ask: When will you grow up, child? Won't you be so naΓ―ve?
Qi Sanming ran to Ji Wenchen's side again, and when he saw the painting in his hand, he immediately shouted: "Senior brother, come and see this house, it's so beautiful!" Uncle Xiao, do you want to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law in such a beautiful house? β
Every sentence is inseparable from marrying a daughter-in-law, children, and you start to complain at fourteen? I just said that you haven't grown up yet, so you'd better be promoted directly to the level of whining! Qi Sanming, sister, I'm convinced of you! Hearing Qi Sanming's call, Su Qiqi continued to despise Qi Sanming in his heart.
Zhou Zhengqiang also ran over when he heard Qi Sanming's shout, and said as he ran: "Let me see, let me see, what a beautiful house and a beautiful daughter-in-law." β
Seeing Zhou Zhengqiang stretching out his hand to grab the painting in his hand, Ji Wenchen snorted and said: "Less hairy and rough, they are all adults, and they are still children!" It took your little uncle several days to draw it.
Su Qiqi asked Ji Wenchen to spread out the picture and point to a few places to explain: "Senior brother, isn't this big wall built along the water?" At present, his bridge may also be a wooden bridge, right? If the stone bridge is built, it will be even more afraid of heavy water! β
"Stone bridge? Building bridges with stones? Qi Sanming shouted loudly: "If that's the case, then this bridge will be durable!" β
Su Qiqi hurriedly pulled Qi Sanming and said, "Don't call, others think we're doing when they hear it!" If you haven't done anything yet, you will be yelling, in case you can't do it, then we won't be laughed at for our delusional thinking! β
Zhou Zhengqiang saw that Qi Sanming was criticized, covered his mouth and laughed, Qi Sanming pushed him unconvinced, and the two began to pinch again.
Ji Wenchen glared at the two of them and said, "Don't make trouble, let's see what your uncle says." β
Seeing that the two children were finally honest, Su Qiqi pointed to the river along the wall and said: "Here, if there is no big water in normal times, this bridge is probably fine, if there is a big flood, it is possible that this bridge will be washed away by the water!" If in the middle of the river, we change the wooden stake into a stone stake, fix it with our oars, and then lay a hard wood on the bridge deck, and fix it with our oars where the piers on both sides are built, will it not be easy to be washed away by the water? I just don't know if this patriarch has the strength to afford to spend so much silver! β
Ji Wenchen said thoughtfully: "This patriarch should not be underestimated, his family is not an ordinary landowner. I'll go to his house again tonight, and I'll talk about every one of the facilities in a while, so that I can tell him more about the benefits of the house on the map. β
Su Qiqi immediately said: "Explain, this is easy, but this picture, if the patriarch wants to use it, you have to sell him at least ten taels of silver!" β
As soon as Su Qiqi said this, Qi Sanming exclaimed: "Ten taels? Uncle Xiao, it took you three days to paint such a thing, and it will sell for ten taels? You're not trying to steal the money, are you? β
Su Qiqi knocked him on a chestnut and said, "Tell you not to read!" You're still screaming. Don't you know that every word is worth a thousand dollars? What kind of silver is this! This is cheap labor! To be honest, it's not that I'm afraid that this patriarch won't have knowledge, I'll have to sell at least fifty taels! β
Zhou Zhengqiang opened his mouth wide and said "ah": "Little uncle, the more you talk, the more divine you become!" A picture sells for fifty taels of silver, I think you still rob the silver building quickly! β
Su Qiqi glanced at him: "It seems that you don't have much knowledge than Sanming!" A notch! If you don't believe me, why don't we make a bet? β
Qi Sanming healed the scar and forgot the pain, and when he heard the bet, he immediately asked with great interest: "Uncle Xiaoshi, what are you betting on?" β
Zhou Zhengqiang also asked curiously: "Yes, Uncle Xiaoshi, what are you betting on?" β
Su Qiqi looked at these two faces that seemed to be determined to win and said, "What do you say to bet?" If I really sold this picture for ten taels of silver, you two will wash my clothes for me and my senior brother for a month! β
He really didn't believe that these pieces of paper could be worth ten taels of silver, and Qi Sanming had not been out of the mountains for a few months, where did he have any knowledge, and he was a big grinning character. When he listened to the bet, he felt that the bet was too easy, and it was okay to lose. Besides, he didn't believe that he would lose, so he asked proudly: "Then what if you lose, Uncle Xiaoshi?" β
Su Qiqi said happily: "Then I'll help you two wash your clothes for a month!" β
Zhou Zhengqiang shouted: "Master, it's not me and my junior brother bullying my uncle, he took the initiative to propose it, can you feel sorry for my uncle and blame the two of us at that time!" β
Su Qiqi didn't wait for Ji Wenchen to speak, and immediately raised his right hand: "I guarantee with my character, and I will never lose my words!" I'm afraid that then you two will be reith! β
The two of them immediately learned from Su Qiqi and raised his hand and swore: "If the two of us don't admit it, we will curse us to fall and eat every morning when we go out!" β
Ji Wenchen looked at the three children in front of him with a smile, he felt that it was not that he didn't understand this junior brother sometimes, but that he didn't understand this junior brother at all, and some of his strange actions always surprised and relieved him!
He smiled and said, "In that case, I will be a witness." β
The master also mixed their game, and Qi Sanming became even more energetic: "The master has to be fair!" β
Ji Wenchen glared at him: "You mean I'm usually unfair?" β
Zhou Zhengqiang snickered on the side, Qi Sanming's face darkened and lowered his head: Usually you are very unfair, okay!
It's a pity that Qi Sanming only dared to swallow this sentence in his stomach.
Ji Wenchen didn't come back very late in the evening, because the weather was cold, and the three of them went to bed early. Seeing that the master hadn't come back so late, Qi Sanming felt that the master must be persuading the patriarch to buy Uncle Xiao's paintings. So he gloated and said: "Uncle Xiao, you said that the master didn't come back after playing like this, I think it must be the patriarch who is unwilling to buy your picture!" β
Zhou Zhengqiang echoed on the side: "The master didn't come back so late, wouldn't he be begging the patriarch of the Zhang family to buy the picture of the uncle?" β
Qi Sanming was sure again, Patriarch Zhang used ten taels of silver to buy a piece of paper, that was impossible! So he said firmly: "It's useless to ask, the master is afraid that the uncle will be disappointed, so he must want to help him!" But there will be no such generous person in this world, ten taels of silver! Not ten big bucks! β
Su Qiqi got into the quilt early, ignoring the words of the two children. She thinks that this miscellaneous bedroom is full of wind, and it is better to hide in the quilt!
"It's over, Uncle Xiao, aren't you scared?" Qi Sanming saw that she ignored them, and deliberately asked loudly.
"Hehe, junior brother, I won't have to do laundry for a month from tomorrow!"
"Hahaha... Uncle Xiao, if you can't finish washing, don't cry to the master. β
Hearing the two of them singing and singing, she thought the two children were really interesting, so she replied to them funny: "Do you think that no one so generous would buy my painting for ten taels of silver?" Maybe Uncle Shi is so lucky, I just happened to meet a generous person! Just wait for me to do my laundry tomorrow!" Hey, hey, hey, go to bed early, get up early tomorrow and do the laundry! β
Qi Sanming pouted: "You are comforting yourself!" You'd better go to bed early by yourself, and my brother and I will all change our coats tomorrow! If you can't lift it, uncle, remember to ask me and my brother to help you lift it! β
Go! Two impulsive little furry boys, I'm going to bet you to add some entertainment, okay? Sister, I have condensed the design drawings of thousands of years of knowledge, and ten taels of silver are not worth it? Unless this patriarch's family background is too thin to take out the silver!
When Ji Wenchen came back, Su Qiqi, Qi Sanming, and Zhou Zhengqiang were already asleep, and when he saw the junior brother who was sleeping on the bed like a shrimp, he suppressed his excitement, covered a small half of his quilt on her, and then slept next to her.
When Su Qiqi got up in the morning, she felt that she slept really warm last night, and when she went to sleep at night, she still felt a cool feeling, and she slept until midnight probably because the quilt was hot, very comfortable, and she had a good night's sleep.
Suddenly remembered the bet she made last night, she didn't want to wash the stinky clothes of those two boys for a month, and hoped that this patriarch Zhang was a person with eyesight. In fact, the bet is small, but the business is big. If you get this deal, then the money will fly in front of your eyes. Su Qiqi turned her head to look to the side, her senior brother had already gotten up, she hurriedly got up, put on her thin cotton clothes, put on her shoes and walked out.
