425 Baoshan (Dragon Boat Festival Update)
In the next few days, Zhou Shaojin went to the house on the other side of Chaoyang Gate every day to learn framing with Cheng Chi.
is different from the ignorant playfulness when she didn't know each other's intentions before, and different from the shyness of mutual affection, she is much more natural in front of him. will be innocuous jokes, but also affectionate gaze, people have become more cheerful and generous, like green buds slightly blooming bright petals, with bright colors, charming posture.
Cheng Chi couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
Fortunately, he met Shao Jin early, otherwise in a few years, I am afraid that if he wants to hold her under his wing, the difficulties in front of him will be better.
Cheng Chi naturally didn't know that Zhou Shaojin, who had not met him in his previous life, had withered early.
He took care of Zhou Shaojin like a delicate flower, carefully caring for Zhou Shaojin, and his heart was full of tenderness and sweetness.
Zhou Shaojin gradually became really interested in framing.
If I liked framing before because I could be with Cheng Chi, now I think it's interesting for real people.
Large-scale paintings should be cut and inlaid with vertical scrolls, and small paintings should be dug and inlayed; Those with inscriptions should be trimmed, and those without inscriptions should be cut, agarwood, sandalwood, and fir shafts; Thin brocade, pavilion brocade, purple camel flower brocade; Ivory horn, rhinoceros horn, and horn skewers...... The painting scroll is exquisite, the mounting is exquisite, and the skewer used for the scroll is exquisite, that is, the box containing the painting scroll is divided into fir box and alder box...... Just like she embroidered to make clothes, all kinds of collocation, all kinds of exquisiteness, Zhou Shaojin fell into the kaleidoscope, and she felt very interesting.
She also brought seven or eight horn buttons to Li's and said, "...... Uncle Chi polished it with his own hands when he was fine, and said it was left over when he was polishing the skewers. "If she wants to say that she sees Cheng Chi now, as long as she thinks about him, she will feel hot in her heart, and she can't help but praise." I didn't know Uncle Chi would do any of this. And I remember that when Uncle Chi lived in Xiaoshan Conggui Courtyard, he also made a piano with his own hands...... "Thinking of this, she found that she hadn't had time to ask Cheng Chi how the piano was doing, she smiled abruptly, "Uncle Chi has a lot of good things there, he is going to engrave the seal these days, saying that he is going to take it to Baoding Mansion when you go back." For the father. It was a piece of good bloodstone that he got in his early years, and the carp on it was also carved by Uncle Chi himself, all of which he personally did. There is no pretense for anyone else. ”
On the other day, when Uncle Chi told her how to know the sticks of various materials, she said that some painting scrolls would be inlaid with gemstones, and then the topic turned to various mountain stones, and she accidentally knew that her father had carved a bloodstone seal engraved with the word "Xiyan" for her, and Uncle Chi decided to carve a seal of "good as water" for her father.
The carp has a fable of the carp jumping over the dragon gate. It is to wish my father a smooth career and go to the next level. The four words "good as water" taken from the "Tao Te Ching" include the responsibility of self-cultivation and doing things, which is quite a bit of an official and do not forget the meaning of the foundation of the body.
Li didn't read much, and he didn't know the meaning of "goodness is like water", but he knew the meaning of "carp jumping over the door". What's more, although it is common for the princes to give seals to each other, the seal button is either not carved at all and remains in its original state. If it was made by inviting those carvers before, like Cheng Chi, it was all done by himself. Even the craftsman's work is very rare, which also shows that his carving is good. In addition, Cheng Chi took care of her everywhere when the Li family came to Beijing, and her impression of Cheng Chi was so good that she unconsciously held Cheng Chi a little, not to mention that this matter was worth praising her, she couldn't help but be amazed, and said: "That's good!" Do you remember to thank Master Chi Si for the master. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, "No wonder Master Chi Si was admitted to the Jinshi at a young age, but he is really capable!" Anything will! ”
There is no direct relationship between Zhongjin Shi and engraving at all.
But the two people who spoke were both towards Cheng Chi, so they didn't feel that there was anything wrong with their words at all.
Zhou Shaojin smiled and said, "Uncle Chi has a lot of fun things there!" There is an old jade carved flower peach water bowl, a peach is big, a peach is small, from the big peach poured water into it, will 'tick da' dripping into the small peach, dripping, exactly a quarter of an hour of effort. Uncle Chi said that this was used when he was a child. Write a big word in a quarter of an hour, and when the water drops are finished, you have to write it well. If you pour water into the small peaches, it will drip into the big peaches, but it will take three quarters of an hour to drip - when the water is finished, you have to write a page of small print...... There is also a pair of paperweights, I don't know what material it is made of, it looks black, if it is cloudy, it becomes dark green, and the patterns can be faintly seen inside, like dark clouds rolling. Uncle Chi said that it was an ancestral thing, which was given to him by the old lady, and he has been using it. He also told me that if this paperweight touched water, the whole basin would be dripping with ink and sweat. I also tried it deliberately, and found that the paperweight was really put in the basin and the water became black, and the water was still clear water when I took it out, and the paperweight was still paperweight......"
"And that kind of thing?" Li Shi also exclaimed in amazement, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "The fourth master is worthy of being a child of a family, others can't get one in their lifetime, but he can take out one thing casually." ”
Zhou Shaojin nodded, looking like he had entered Baoshan.
She's going to be in time at the end of the year. Seeing that she was suddenly like a jewel out of the box, not to mention more and more beautiful, and with a graceful demeanor like a flower brushing Buddha, Li was faintly worried in his heart, thinking about whether to persuade Zhou Shaojin to run less to Chaoyang Gate in the future, but at this time, he saw that his little face was shining, full of joy, and he felt that he was too careful...... After this hesitation, Zhou Shaojin took out a two-finger-wide peach wood card and handed it to her, saying, "This is what I bought from Uncle Chi, the year is safe, give it to Youjin to wear!" Qingfeng said that when Uncle Chi went to Wutai Mountain that year, he asked the master to open the light, and blessed Youjin with safety and success! ”
Li saw that there was a treasure bottle carved on the card, and a wicker was inserted in the treasure bottle, and a drop of nectar was hung on the tip of the willow.
"How can this work!" She hurriedly pushed it to Zhou Shaojin.
Zhou Shaojin pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Uncle Chi also knows. He also said that I chose well. said that Youjin was young, Dai Jinyin was too eye-catching, and it was easy to be stared at by Xiaoxiao when she walked outside. It's better to wear this peachwood peace card, and wait for leisure not to know the details, but to know what to do. If you want to snub her, you have to think about it carefully......"
These words really speak to the heart of the Li family.
Because she was born in a businessman, she married Zhou Zhen, who was born as a scholar, how can she be a little weak-hearted, and she is most afraid of being looked down upon by Zhou Zhen's colleagues and wives of the same department, and she does not dare to use it indiscriminately if she has a large amount of dowry in her hand. Now that she has this peace card, her daughter can straighten her waist when she walks again.
Li Shi didn't shirk any more, accepted the peace card, and couldn't help but say: "Master Chi Si is such a good person. I don't know whose daughter is blessed to marry him! ”
Zhou Shaojin endured it so that he didn't laugh out loud.
In the past, Lee also said such things. But what he said was "Master Chi Si is such a good person, why didn't he get married"......
Thinking about this, Zhou Shaojin's cheeks were slightly drunk.
Uncle Chi...... Hugged her from behind. Kiss her neck and whisper in her ear...... What do you say, I want to tie up my father-in-law and mother-in-law well, and get the beauty back as soon as possible...... She was so numb that she almost collapsed in his arms......
I hate it to death!
One moment serious, one moment crazy. Where is there still a bit of the former steady, and everyone still praises him for his goodness!
She muttered silently. But in my heart, it was like honey coming out, sweet, and even the corners of my eyes and tips became gentle like water about to overflow.
Lee's eyes were shocked.
It's just that although she is married, she has never had such feelings. Although I was secretly surprised and uneasy, I didn't know how to solve it.
Suspicious. Uncle Li asked to see him.
She had no choice but to let Zhou Shaojin go back to the room and go to the flower hall to see Uncle Li.
Uncle Li rubbed his hands and walked around the flower hall. It's hard to hide the excitement.
Seeing my sister walk in, I hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I sent a letter to my father and told my father about the introduction of the fourth master of the Cheng family for me." Father's meaning, the 100-day gift of the official brother of the aunt and grandmother's family, twice as many things...... It's not that I'm reluctant to give up this money, I'm afraid that I will do something bad with good intentions and suppress the etiquette of the Cheng family's uncles. So I came to ask you, what should I do about this? ”
Li didn't know what to do.
She showed her brother the Taomu Ping'an card that Zhou Shaojin gave her, and told her brother what happened.
Uncle Li smiled bitterly and said, "Where can I get such a thing?" ”
Li said: "Then it's better to give a 100-day gift according to the previous gift list." The days to come are still long, and the eldest brother has the heart to repay the Cheng family, and there is an opportunity. ”
Uncle Li thought about it and responded happily, looked at the peace card for a while, praised it for a long time, and talked about his future plans: "...... I also buy a house here, and in the future, you will come to Beijing to live or your eldest nephews will come to the capital to study. ”
Several nephews in the family were driven to study by their father, and the Li family knew about it, but she was not sure whether the nephews could be taken care of by the Zhou family or the Cheng family.
But it's good to buy a house here, and you won't lose money after all.
She responded vaguely, and on the day of the official brother's 100-day ceremony, she dressed up and took Zhou Shaojin, Zhou Youjin and Uncle Li to Shuangyu Hutong together.
Zhenjia Liao's family, Shucheng Fang's family, Jiuru Lane Cheng's family...... Uncle Li standing in the middle of these in-laws is not enough. Fortunately, Cheng Chi said hello to him, and everyone looked at him with a subtle difference.
Uncle Li was gloomy, and he was even more grateful to Cheng Chi.
Cheng Chi was pulled aside by the second old lady of the Liao family in the capital, and said in a low voice: "I heard that Jiuru Lane is going to divide the sect, is it true?" ”
I can't hide this matter if I want to, but Cheng Chi still said: "I have to ask my eldest brother, I don't care about these things." ”
The second old lady of the Liao family hurriedly stated his position: "I don't think it's bad to divide the sect, just don't make any jokes." If there's anything you need me to help with, just let me know. ”
Cheng Chi responded with a smile, not taking his words to heart at all.
The Liao family is not qualified enough to say such things.
