Huang Yuwen smiled and said, "How can I compare with them? Like Qi Baishi painted shrimp and Xu Beihong painted galloping horses, who else dares to paint shrimp and horses among the younger generation of painters? At my current level," Huang Yuwen said Ye Zhiran at this point: "Don't you hear that 'painting a tiger does not become an anti-dog'?" ”

Ye Zhiran heard Huang Yuwen say this, and while ridiculing himself, he also admired these senior painters, and took this as an example to work his paintings. He glanced at her and said: "If you want to reach the level of these painters, you have to endure hardships and spend energy that ordinary people can't imagine, so why should you suffer like that?" ”

Huang Yuwen asked rhetorically: "What kind of person am I?" ”

Ye Zhiran blurted out: "Smart and beautiful, people are as good as their names." ”

Of course, Huang Yuwen knows the meaning of the word "Yuwen" in her name, "Yu" means a beautiful jade, and "Wen" means beautiful clouds. Hearing Ye Zhiran blurt out this sentence, she couldn't help but blush slightly, but she didn't dare to raise her eyes at him, just stomped her foot lightly and said, "Why do you make fun of people like this?" ”

Ye Zhiran said softly: "I feel something in my heart, and I say it bluntly, not a lie." ”

Huang Yuwen only felt that her neck was a little hot when she heard this, and she knew that she must be ashamed at the moment, where could she speak? Hurriedly turned around and walked in front of him, not daring to let him in his face.

Ye Zhiran actually regretted it a little after saying this, seeing Huang Yuwen's shy face, walking quietly in front, knowing that she was embarrassed, she secretly warned herself to pay attention to the choice of words and sentences when speaking, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Fortunately, Huang Yuwen is not the kind of woman who "doesn't step out of the door and doesn't go out", and after walking a few steps, her mood recovered. She stopped and said to Ye Zhiran, "Do you know? My teacher made two pictures for you and said that he would give them to you to repay you for saving your life. ”

Ye Zhiran said in surprise: "Really? I really wanted to get Painter Zhu's paintings, but I couldn't stand his words. ”

Huang Yuwen smiled and said, "I don't know if I can stand it, but the teacher has been talking to you several times a day recently, and when someone comes to visit, he always uses you as a topic." ”

Ye Zhiran patted his head and said, "No wonder I've been sneezing a few times a day recently, it turns out that this is the case." ”

Huang Yuwen glared at him and said, "Don't make fun of the teacher, he really thanks you in his heart, unlike you people who are in the officialdom and don't speak sincerely." ”

Ye Zhiran shouted: "Where am I not sincere?" Besides, how can I be considered a mixed official? ”

Huang Yuwen nodded and said, "You are not an old bureaucrat at present, just a small bureaucrat." However, if you mix it up, you will become an old bureaucrat in the future. ”

Ye Zhiran said dissatisfiedly: "You are striking a large area and killing innocents indiscriminately." I don't see the hard work of leading cadres and the side of doing things for the people. ”

Huang Yuwen giggled after hearing this, and said, "What you said is consistent with my father's tone, and you look like you're taking care of things." ”

Ye Zhiran asked, "Is your father also a leader?" ”

Huang Yuwen glanced at him and said: "A typical petty bureaucratic mentality, only the superior leaders are in their eyes. Let me tell you, my dad is a common man. ”

Ye Zhiran was embarrassed by her, raised his hands and said, "Okay, okay, I surrender, I can't say anything about you." ”

Huang Yuwen was happy at this time, no longer teased him, and asked with a smile: "Little bureaucrat, why are you here today?" ”

Ye Zhiran replied: "I'm here to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and I'm going to study economics and management." ”

Huang Yuwen let out an "oh" and asked again: "Then aren't you going back today?" After the exam, he wandered around the campus and was not in a hurry to catch the bus. ”

Ye Zhiran said: "I won't go back today, our township economic community has opened an office in the provincial capital to attract investment, mainly to provide one-stop service for scientific and technological talents to start enterprises, and I am the leader in charge of the economic community." ”

Huang Yuwen was not interested in his work, but asked with interest: "I heard from the teacher, the scenery of Changjia County is very good, and there are many places where you can write scenes?" ”

Ye Zhiran nodded and said, "That's!" Xishan, Donglin Temple, the river in the city are all places with good scenery, there are empty valleys and lush, small bridges and flowing water, and there are ancient buildings with layers of pavilions, one after another Danying carved trees, the realistic scenery is good, it is a good place to paint. Call me whenever you want to come, and I can be a guide. ”

Huang Yuwen suddenly moved with joy, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't say that you are too busy and don't care about people then." ”

Ye Zhiran happily made a promise and said: "You are a great painter in the future, I should make some emotional investment first, and then I can ask you for paintings." ”

Huang Yuwen scolded him: "Little bureaucrat, sure enough, three sentences do not leave the bank." He paused and said, "Are you going to my teacher's house at night?" ”

Ye Zhiran smiled and said, "I want to go, but I don't know where he lives." ”

Huang Yuwen said, "I'll take you there." ”

Ye Zhiran hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, but now the time is wrong, let's go to the school cafeteria to eat, shall we?" I invite you? ”

Huang Yuwen said sharply and sharply: "Sure enough, the petty bureaucratic style, if I am a cadre in the province, you will also invite me to the canteen to eat?" ”

Ye Zhiran was speechless, so he had to say, "Then where do you say to eat?" Whatever you want. ”

Huang Yuwen covered her mouth and smiled: "No, if I said the place, wouldn't you let me be the east?" I'm going to eat you today, go to the cafeteria. Perhaps realizing that there was a language problem in the words "eat you", she made a pretty face, pointed in the direction of the canteen, and said to Ye Zhiran: "Go! go！ go！ ”

Ye Zhiran was completely defeated, where did he dare to say more, and walked towards the cafeteria together with a smile, but he was thinking in his heart, this Huang Yuwen's personality is not only straightforward, but also a little familiar, she should be very popular, right?

After dinner in the cafeteria, Ye Zhiran followed Huang Yuwen to the home of Zhu Painter in the provincial capital.

Painter Zhu didn't expect Ye Zhiran to come, so he happily beckoned him to sit down in the living room and introduced him to his lover: "Hu Yaping, this is Ye Zhiran, the head of Ye Township who saved my life." ”

Hu Yaping said "ah" with a smile on her face, and said: "You are Ye Chang, Lao Zhu mentions your name every day, and he is really good-looking, and he is a talent." After speaking, he hurriedly poured him tea.

Ye Zhiran was embarrassed by her praise, and said modestly: "Aunt Hu is polite, Zhu Painter Jiren has his own celestial phenomena, without us, maybe there will be others to help." Besides, a few of us are also fighting for our own lives and deaths. ”

Painter Zhu said: "What is fierce? What is Gee? The Buddha said that good and evil are all cause and effect, what kind of cause is planted, and what kind of effect is produced. He said to Ye Zhiran seriously: "Ye Chang, you may not know, I have been friends with the bitter monk of Donglin Temple for many years, and the day after the accident, I went to the temple to thank Guanyin Bodhisattva for his strength, and blessed me and other people in the world from the poison of the mob, and told the bitter monk about the catastrophe, only to know that we people can survive the disaster, all rely on your deep blessings." ”

Ye Zhiran didn't expect that Painter Zhu was still a Buddhist believer, and when he heard him say so devoutly, he obviously believed it deeply, and couldn't help but say: "Painter Zhu, the monk's rhetoric is naturally a set of things like karma and reincarnation in the world. In fact, although we have a lot of luck, we mainly rely on the concerted efforts of everyone to be able to fight even in times of crisis・・・・・・"

Hu Yaping didn't wait for Ye Zhiran to finish speaking, and interjected: "Ye Chang, having said that, the hearts of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are really incredible. There are people in the world who do not believe in Buddhism, and that is because the wisdom of the Buddha is not easy for people to understand. I heard Lao Zhu say that Master Kude praised you for being kind, having a relationship with the Buddha, and cultivating the world's law, so that the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Ten Directions came to bless you, help you turn evil into good fortune, and at the same time rescued Lao Zhu and several of them. ”

Ye Zhiran couldn't help but glance at her, and suddenly realized in her heart: Painter Zhu's belief in Buddhism was influenced by his wife. Listening to her say this sentence mysteriously, he unconsciously talked about the last conversation with the Kude monk in Donglin Temple, and couldn't help but say: "Buddhism is profound, I am just a layman, I can't deeply understand it." I had the fate to have a long talk with the monk Kude, and I also had a jade pendant that he had worn for many years, and Kude once said, 'If you want to know the cause of the past, the recipient of this life is', but I still can't comprehend it. Could it be that in this catastrophe, because that piece of jade blocked the blade of the 'Two Lis' for me, I was able to avoid the danger, because the cause of goodness was planted in the past? ”

Painter Zhu and Hu Yaping were surprised together, and asked at the same time: "What jade pendant?" ”

Ye Zhiran untied the jade pendant hanging on his chest, handed it to Painter Zhu, and said: "The last time I went to the temple to worship the Buddha, the monk Kude gave me this piece of jade, and asked me to hang it on my body all the time. ”

Zhu painter took the jade pendant in his hand, handed it to Hu Yanping again, nodded and sighed: "Sure enough." Ye Zhiran knew that he still had something to say, so he quietly looked at him. Painter Zhu sighed for a while, and then said: "This piece of jade is cherished by the Kude monk, I know it." Kude monk wears it in front of the Bodhisattva to worship the Buddha for decades, even if this piece of jade has not been channeled, it must also have mana, Kude said that you have a fate with the Buddha I am afraid that this is it. ”

Ye Zhiran was even more puzzled when he said this, and asked: "If the Kude monk doesn't give me this jade pendant, won't I have no relationship with the Buddha?" Is it because I have a Buddha fate that Kude gave me a jade pendant, or did I accept the jade pendant to have a relationship with the Buddha? ”

This question made Painter Zhu stunned and couldn't answer. Hu Yaping smiled and said: "Fate in the world has cause and effect, so there is a saying that 'plant melons get melons, plant beans and get beans'." You can get the jade pendant of Kude because you have a relationship with Kude. Maybe you don't know the cause, but things in the world have a cause and effect, and it must be Kude who saw through the cause and effect before giving you a jade pendant. ”
