Wen Sheng looked for water and cleaned his hands calmly, took out a snow-white handkerchief and wiped his hands slowly, Bai Lin glanced at her from afar, looked down at the painting, and then looked at her, and the last trace of unwillingness in his heart disappeared without a trace.

He smiled bitterly and said astringently: "Your Excellency's painting level is extremely high, thank you for your advice, Bai Mou is convinced." After a pause, he asked, "Is there a seal?" Cover them and tell them to hang them up again. Such a painting is truly worthy of being described as full of brilliance. In fact, I would prefer to keep it in my private collection, looking at it from time to time, reminding me that there is still a mountain high, and I should not be a frog at the bottom of a well. ”

Bai Linyuan's words were frank, and Wen Sheng felt that this person was really good friends, and smiled: "Bai Gongzi is serious, since this is the case, you just accept it." The intersection of poetry and singing and calligraphy and painting is an elegant thing, and it is nothing if it is just a joke. ”

Hearing the young master say that he wanted to hang this painting out again, the old servant in gray was a little eager to say and stopped, this painting has changed greatly, and most of the people who often come to return to Yanlou are regular customers, only afraid that ten people will pass upstairs, and nine will be curious to ask, alas, the young master of his own family doesn't want anything else in his head except painting, and he doesn't care about face at all.

Hearing Wen Sheng say this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "This son is right, young master, you have been inspired this time, and you will definitely benefit in the future, and then draw a new work for Guiyan Tower to hang, this painting is so rare, I think you should show it to the master." ”

Bai Lin nodded helplessly.

Wen Sheng also said: "I see that your foundation is very strong, but unfortunately it seems that you have not been guided by the Master for so many years, it doesn't matter, with your heart without distractions, as long as you open your mind and have more experience, there will always be a day when you accumulate a lot, and then look at this autumn scene of chrysanthemums, you will feel that what I have just painted is not enough." ”

At this time, the atmosphere in the private room was very different from the beginning, Bai Linyuan very politely invited Wen Sheng to take a seat, asked her name, and explained apologetically: "Bai Mou has been in a bad mood these days because of other things, don't be surprised if you are rude." ”

Li Congwu pulled a stool and sat down, secretly proud in his heart, this is obviously his cousin showed his hand and shocked the surname Bai, it seems, maybe, this young master and cousin of the classic historian are really possible?

Wen Sheng had already left behind the two marriages that the Li family had planned for her, and she didn't pay attention to the strange eyes of the third brother Li Congwu, and said generously: "My surname is Gu, this is my cousin." ”

The gray-clothed old servant still remembered that the big man said that they lived in Luli Lane: "The two of them looked at each other, and they didn't hide it, my lord has visited all the gentlemen who are slightly famous in painting in Lishui and several nearby counties over the years, I don't know who Gu Gongzi studied with?" ”

"yes, who is your teacher?" Bai Linyuan followed and asked, he didn't care too much about things that had nothing to do with painting, like Li Congwu, who was a head taller than Wen Sheng on the side, he hadn't looked at it a few times until now.

"Teacher, he ...... Not a local, he was unknown at the time, I don't know where he is now, and it will be difficult to see him again in this life. Wen Sheng was moved, and his tone was very stunned.

The gray-clothed old servant was in awe: "It's actually a hermit." ”

A look of fascination appeared on Bai Linyuan's face: "It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to see each other." But Gu Gongzi, your painting level is far better than mine, and it's the same if you come to help me take a look. ”

He went to bring a stack of paintings on the window window, put them in front of Wen Sheng, and said, "These are all paintings I painted recently, point and point?" ”

Wen Sheng smiled, she felt that this Bai Linyuan was very interesting.

When I first heard the rumors, I thought that this person would be very difficult, but who knew that it was not like that.

She looked at the paintings carefully, and it turned out that Bai Linyuan not only painted ink, but also painted white strokes.

There are only two or three of these dozen or so paintings, such as the autumn scenery of chrysanthemums, and the others are all people, all kinds of people, some single, double, and one painting a distant view on the long street, crowded with many people, including men and women.

Wen Sheng remembered that his aunt slandered Bai Linyuan for lying on the window of Guiyan Tower and looking down every day, waiting to paint a beauty, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, it turned out that it was not groundless, and he was not wronged.

Bai Linyuan's lines are skillful, especially the facial features, eyebrows and eyes of the characters are different, the characteristics are distinct, and the brushstrokes are careful. The shortcomings are also obvious, all his paintings are a common problem when viewed closely, just like appreciating the autumn scenery of chrysanthemums, dry and lacking interest.

But just now Bai Linyuan had already hit him hard, and at this time, Wen Sheng didn't want to pour cold water on him again, so he didn't say anything, and asked him: "These paintings are all drawn according to real people, right?" ”

Bai Linyuan nodded, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows revealed a little smugness.

The old servant in gray replied for him: "No, the young master has often stood in front of the window in recent years, and he has been standing for a few hours, and there are many people in the painting whose names I can call at a glance. ”

That is really similar to a real person, but Bai Linyuan's ambition is not to be an ordinary painter who paints people, Wen Sheng lowered his head and thought about it, and suddenly changed the topic and talked about something else: "There is an old man surnamed Qi in the old store of the Chen family, who plays the piano well, I just went to listen to it two days ago, if Bai Gongzi has no other arrangements, how about let's go and listen to it together tomorrow?" ”

Bai Lin is far from knowing why, if there is another person, even if Master Bai speaks, he will not go to the old shop of the Chen family to drink tea and listen to music, but he attaches great importance to Wen Sheng at this time, literati have a word of the teacher, in the eyes of Bai Linyuan, who is obsessed with painting, Wen Sheng is similar to him, so he just hesitated a little, and then nodded very simply.

The two set a time, and Wen Sheng took his cousin to leave.

After leaving Guiyan Tower, Li Congwu wiped his sweat with palpitations and complained: "Cousin, you are too bold, if you let my father know, we will both have to peel off our skin." Besides, you've seen it too, and you've been talking for so long, why bother asking him to see you tomorrow? ”

Wen Sheng knew that it would be difficult to reverse his opinion all at once, so he had to explain slowly: "If the third brother is not at ease, he will still follow at that time." ”

"I ......" Li Congwu wanted to say fiercely, "Who wants to mess around with you, you will stay at home honestly for me", so he heard Wen Sheng whisper and said: "Don't worry, I won't suffer any more, the Li family has been working for me alone these days, third brother, you should know what happened, but to be honest, I don't want to marry in a hurry because of the villain's tricks, I will find a way to solve this dilemma myself." ”

Li Congwu said with difficulty: "You hide your identity so much and make friends with the surname Bai, when he knows that you are a woman, he may not be able to help you." ”

Wen Sheng smiled faintly: "Then I won't know until then." ”

Didn't Bai Linyuan see through his female disguise as a man today? According to the meticulous observation of his paintings, I am afraid that it may not be. It's just that he doesn't care if it's true.
