Chapter Eighty-Seven: Paintings

Ye Qinglan hurriedly chased after her: "Cousin, where are you going?" ”

Gu Xiyu's answer was unusually concise: "Izumo Xuan! ”

Izumoken ...... Isn't that where Gu Xinian lives? Emotional Gu Xiyu said "yes", referring to this.

Ye Qinglan was deeply embarrassed, and hurriedly pulled Gu Xiyu's sleeve: "Forget it, don't go!" "She wasn't interested in going to Gu Xinian's turf. It's like a sheep in the tiger's den...... Phew, what a messy broken metaphor this is.

Anyway, she intuitively felt that she shouldn't go to Izumo.

Gu Xiyu blinked suspiciously, why didn't she go? Izumoken is next door, just a few steps away, and it's not a hassle at all!

In those black and white eyes, there were clear questions.

Ye Qinglan coughed and laughed: "It doesn't seem polite to go to Cousin Gu's residence casually without Cousin Gu's permission." If Cousin Gu found out, he would definitely be angry. ”

Gu Xiyu smiled and pointed at herself. The meaning is obvious, as long as she takes the past, Gu Xinian will never be angry.

Ye Qinglan was also a little short of words, and was racking her brains to think of a reason, but Gu Xiyu had already reached out and pulled her out. Ye Qinglan couldn't help but follow, and secretly prayed in her heart that she wouldn't meet Gu Xinian......

God obviously heard her prayers, and there was no master at all in Izumo except for a few small servants.

Ye Qinglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and began to be in the mood to look at the surrounding environment. Everything you can see is clean. Not even a trace of dust. The people are so diligent in cleaning, it seems that the owner here has some cleanliness habits.

A young man with clear eyebrows walked over and respectfully greeted Gu Xiyu.

Gu Xiyu nodded, didn't say much, and pulled Ye Qinglan towards Gu Xinian's study.

The little guy was stunned. Busy with a smile on his face and said, "Miss, where are you going?" ”

Do you need to ask? Gu Xiyu frowned unhappily, although she didn't say anything, the unhappiness in her eyes was obvious.

The little guy stubbornly said, "If you want to go to the study, of course you can." However, the young master had instructed that no one was allowed to enter the study at will, except for the young lady......" He glanced at Ye Qinglan as he spoke.

If the young master knew that he let outsiders into the study at will, he wouldn't be able to eat and walk away.

Ye Qinglan smiled very knowingly: "If that's the case, then I won't go in." It's better to wait until next time to get my cousin's permission before going in. ”

The stubbornness in Gu Xiyu's temperament came out: "I'll take you in." "Not much to say. Just pulled Ye Qinglan to the study. The little guy followed with a bitter face, but he didn't dare to say any more.

Ye Qinglan smiled apologetically at the little girl. That smile was warm and bright, indescribably fresh and moving. The little guy who is only fifteen or sixteen years old looks at it with a fluttering heart. His face was secretly red, and he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look any more.

I went around a long corridor and entered the side hall, and then I arrived at the study.

The so-called everything is inferior, but reading is high. At this time, even if you are a scholar with an ordinary family background, you must have your own study. A desk, a bookshelf, plus some pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, there is an atmosphere of reading and learning words.

Ye Yuanzhou and Xue Yushu naturally have study rooms, and Ye Chengli's study is even more spacious. There is even a bed so you can rest at any time.

However, the study in front of you. It is definitely the most extravagant Ye Qinglan has seen in her life, and there is no one.

The spacious and tidy study room has excellent lighting, and the snow-white walls show the brightness of the room. A wide desk, I don't know what kind of precious wood it is made of. It's very heavy and comfortable to look at. On the table, there are simple things such as pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., and everything is neatly arranged. No mess at all.

Leaning against the wall is a row of large bookshelves, each with five tiers filled with books. I don't know how many there are, but if you roughly calculate, there are at least thousand. At first glance, the entire wall is covered with books.

This kind of visual shock made Ye Qinglan can't help but sigh. Suddenly, I had the illusion that I was in the library.

Books in later generations were very common, and bookstores were everywhere, and you could buy as much as you wanted. At this time, it is different, books are luxuries, and ordinary people cannot afford them. Moreover, some ancient books are very difficult to find, and you can't buy them with money. If there are one hundred and eighty books in a study, it is enough to make the owner proud.

But here, there is a wall of books......

Ye Qinglan sighed deeply that she didn't come in vain, just standing in front of the bookshelf and browsing casually was enough to make people happy and forgetful. Even if Gu Xinian knew that she trespassed into the study and was furious, it would be worth it!

Seeing Ye Qinglan's exclamation, the little guy couldn't help but puff up his chest proudly: "In the young master's study, there are many ancient books and solitary books, and I can't find them on the market!" ”

Ye Qinglan did not hesitate to praise at all: "Yes, I really opened my eyes today." ”

As long as it is a man, whether old or young, he probably can't resist such a sincere and lovely smile. The little guy couldn't help but say a few more words: "The young master's collection of books is quite rich, and there are always people who come to borrow them, and the young master never borrows them." ”

This is not surprising. Gu Xinian seems to be easy-going, but in fact, it is not like that at all in his bones. Although Gu Xinian is very good at disguise, there are some small details that can't be hidden from her, a clear-eyed person. He was extremely wary, and it was extremely difficult for him to get close to him......

In the huge study, there are only Gu Xiyu and Ye Qinglan, plus this little guy. Mo Xiang and Rui Xue and a few maids were waiting outside the study with great interest.

Ye Qinglan finally reluctantly retracted her gaze.

Gu Xiyu waited for so long, but she didn't show the slightest impatience. Seeing that Ye Qinglan finally came back to her senses, she said, "Follow me." With that, he walked to the middle of another wall and pushed it.

Ye Qinglan realized that there was a door on that wall. It's just that the door is very delicately made, and it is the same pink and white color as the wall, and when I came in just now, I was only interested in reading a book, and I didn't notice that there was a door here.

What will be in this room?

Ye Qinglan followed Gu Xiyu with curiosity and walked in.

This room was slightly smaller than the study next door, with several large wooden boxes. It should be filled with calligraphy and paintings.

There were only two paintings hanging on the wall, and as soon as she saw the payment, Ye Qinglan couldn't help herself with excitement: "Cousin Xiyu, it's a painting by Wu Daozi and Zhan Ziqian!" "The real thing she's always dreamed of seeing!

Compared with Ye Qinglan's excitement, Gu Xiyu's reaction was much more flat.

That's of course. I don't know how many calligraphy and paintings like this have been seen since I was a child, even if they are beautiful and good-looking, they are numb to watch!

Ye Qinglan stood in front of the two paintings for a long time, but she was still reluctant to move. Although Gu Xiyu's patience was excellent, seeing her like this, she couldn't help but pull her sleeves.

There are a lot of these calligraphy and paintings in the box, and I want to read it slowly after I want to see it.

Ye Qinglan was immersed in great happiness and joy, and she didn't realize what Gu Xiyu meant for a while. Gu Xiyu simply pulled her to one of the boxes and opened one of them. Then, a full scroll of pictures comes into view. Open one of them at random, and it turns out that they are all works of extremely famous ancient painters.

These are auctioned for future generations, and each one is a priceless treasure.

Ye Qinglan suddenly had the urge to become a bandit. I really want to take it all for myself......

Probably because her eyes were too eager, even Gu Xiyu felt funny, and whispered, "My brother's painting is there." ”

Yes, didn't she come here today to see Gu Xinian's paintings?

Ye Qinglan calmed down and walked to the wooden frame by the wall with Gu Xiyu. This kind of wooden frame is also used to store calligraphy and painting works, and even the corners are wiped clean.

Gu Xiyu picked up one of them and slowly opened it.

It was a picture of a galloping horse. Between the green mountains and green waters, a white horse with a divine horse raised its head high and ran forward with all its might. The mane was blown by the cold wind. It seems that if you are not careful, you will run out of the painting.

It's so realistic!

Ye Qinglan stared at this galloping horse diagram without blinking, and did not speak for a long time. The feeling of being blown away by my whole body and mind is beyond words.

Gu Xiyu understands this feeling very well.

The first time she saw the galloping horse was four years ago. At that time, she was standing beside Gu Xinian, watching him splash ink without pause. Then he was amazed and said, "It's so realistic!" ”

The eldest brother's face was a little strange at that time, as if he was embarrassed and reminiscing, and he didn't speak for a long time. Then, the galloping horse was put away, and no third person ever looked at it.

Ye Qinglan looked at it for a long time, and when she raised her head again, there were some indescribable contradictions and struggles in her eyes.

Although Gu Xiyu was simple, her mind was very delicate, and she sensitively noticed that something was wrong with Ye Qinglan's feelings, and couldn't help but glance at Ye Qinglan, her eyes full of inquiry.

Ye Qinglan smiled fixedly: "Cousin Gu is really a genius, I think his paintings are no worse than those famous artists." ”

Gu Xiyu smiled proudly, and sure enough, she didn't ask any further.

Ye Qinglan quickly glanced at the galloping horse again, and then quickly re-rolled the scroll and put it back.

I can't look at it anymore, and if I look at it any longer, I'm afraid that she really can't help but have the idea of secretly taking this painting away.

Gu Xiyu didn't know anything about the contradictions and struggles in her heart, and picked up another painting scroll with a smile and opened it. Then, Ye Qinglan looked at it for a long time, repeating the fierce mental struggle just now.

After reading all the paintings on the shelf, Ye Qinglan had completely fallen at Gu Xinian's feet...... Don't get me wrong, she's not interested in his person, she's just interested in his paintings.

After staying for a long time, it's time to go.

Ye Qinglan reluctantly took one last look, and was about to open her mouth to leave, when out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw that there was a painting scroll in the corner.

That scroll is a little strange, unlike other scrolls that are all rolled up and spread out a bit. It seems to have been seen and thrown into a corner.
