29 Confused accounts at the birthday banquet (middle)
Ah Wu's face has not changed at all, to say that among Tang Yin's friends, Hu Yahe has a knot for her, before Ah Wu, Hu Ya and Tang Yin were the best handkerchiefs, but now that Ah Wu has taken over, Hu Yahe will inevitably be a little jealous.
Moreover, Hu Yahe didn't think that Ah Wu was anything special at all, such an ordinary person could be looked at differently by Tang Yin, which especially made Hu Yahe dissatisfied.
In fact, the little girl doesn't understand that the fate between people is not how good and outstanding the other party is, there are many talented people in the world, but not everyone likes them when they see them.
As the old saying goes, "white hair is as new, and the cover is as old as ever" is this truth.
Making friends is about a deed, maybe a look, maybe an action, and after bidding each other, they will be imprinted with each other. So Tang Yin doesn't care if Ah Wu is excellent or not, it's just that this little girl voted for her, and they got along with each other.
Hu Yahe thinks that a girl with a family background like Tang Yin should associate with a girl with the same family background, if the background is a little worse, then she has to be talented, which makes sense.
In fact, most people don't necessarily like to make friends with people who are better than themselves, let alone pour out their hearts.
Tang Yin opened the box, took out a scroll to draw, and said to Ah Wu happily: "You painted it?" ”
Ah Wu nodded, but she was a little hesitant in her heart, she didn't expect Gu Xihui to come, and this painting was the subject she usually made.
Tang Yin slowly unfolded the painting scroll, and a pair of vivid and vivid water ducks jumped onto the paper. There are also four lines of poetry in the upper right corner, "The fragrance of the lotus is ten acres, and the sister-in-law is greedy for lotus picking." When I came to get the water at night, the bow of the boat was wet, and I took off my red skirt and wrapped the duck. ”
There is a seal of Ah Wu below, which was carved for Rong Sanye when she was empty, "duck keeper".
"Duck Guest" is the self-deprecation of Ah Wu in the previous life, she is weak in talent, staying at home, and the pastime on weekdays is mostly to feed the fish in the water, and watch the ducks across the water, so the self-styled duck guest, the vulgar is elegant, and the word "guest" is her sick self-pity, saying that she is just a passerby in the world, reincarnated as a man, but to be a short-term guest at home.
Because Ah Wu saw more ducks and painted more ducks, she had her own school of painting ducks, and even Su Xishan, a master of calligraphy and painting at that time, praised her, saying that she was a school of her own and had the style of a grandmaster.
Tang Yin, Su Nian and others commented on Ah Wu's elaborate work with great interest, only thinking that her painting style was interesting and lively, and she had never seen such an interesting duck picture.
Different from Tang Yin's layman to see the excitement, Su Nian was extremely surprised, the Su Xishan that Ah Wu said was her grandfather, who had been exposed to it since childhood, and Su Nian had a lot of immersion and experience in painting, according to her, this breathtaking, miraculous duck picture really doesn't look like an eight-year-old girl doll can draw.
Su Nian had a little doubt in his heart, "This painting can be said to be the essence of the duck." If my grandfather had seen it, he would have been amazed if he had learned that Sister Xuan had drawn it with such a little doll. ”
In addition to Su Nian, there was another person present who was the most shocked, and that was Gu Xihui.
Gu Xihui grew up with the county lord of Kangning, and she didn't know how her painting style could be. The lord of Kangning County also called himself a duck breeder before his death, and what he was best at was the duck picture.
Rong Xuan's (Ah Wu)'s paintings are all similar to the style of the Lord of Corning in terms of conception, layout and technique. Of course, there are not people with similar painting styles, but there is a unique feature of the duck painted by the Lord of Corning, that is, in the eyes.
The duck's eyes are extremely small in a painting, but it is this very small place that shows the essence of the essence, and the county lord of Corning always deliberately leaves a white eye blank, revealing a white star, which makes the duckling's eyes extremely expressive and smart.
Gu Xihui once asked the county lord of Kang Kangning why she painted like this, but she remembered that ducks also have emotions, and they will cry after being widowed, in her heart, these ducks are people one by one, and the most expressive place when painting people is in the eyes, and the eyes of the ducks cannot be ignored.
In today's duck picture of Rong Xuan, the eyes of the pair of ducks are the brushwork of the county lord of Kangning.
This was also too coincidental, so that Gu Xihui had to look at Ah Wu in shock.
Ah Wu naturally knew why Gu Xihui looked at herself like this, she just pretended not to know and smiled back at Gu Xihui.
Gu Xihui felt that maybe she was thinking too much, maybe it was really a coincidence, everything was a coincidence.
"Sister Nian is the most knowledgeable in our group of people, since you say so, I think this painting may not be made by someone." Hu Yahe began to attack through Su Nian's words. "Sister Gu, did you say?" Gu Xihui is known for her talent, and she is more prosperous than Rong Wu, if she also says so, then Ah Wu will be ironclad if she pretends to use other people's paintings to say that she did it herself.
Gu Xihui came back to her senses and smiled, "It's hard to say, it's better to let Sister Xuan make a picture on the spot to open our eyes." "If Ah Wu is really a fake, Gu Xihui's words will be a failure, but this is not the case, Ah Wu is naturally not stunned.
And Gu Xihui didn't mean to embarrass people, she really wanted to know if Lu Dao's painting was made by Rong Xuan herself, if not, then it could only be the outflow of the painting of the county lord of Kangning, if it was really so, it would be better than the painting style was so coincidental and weird to make Gu Xihui more acceptable.
"Okay, okay, my birthday is not for you to paint, whether it is painted by Ah Xuan or not, I like it very much." Tang Yin is trying her best to defend Ah Wu, she is afraid that Ah Wu will borrow other people's paintings when she is young and ignorant, and she is afraid that she will lose her ugliness, so she wants to bypass this topic. It can be seen that Tang Yin is very short-sighted.
Ah Wu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, but in the end, he still wanted to use Gu Xihui to see if he could make a breakthrough. "Good things come in pairs, Sister Yin, why don't I paint another picture of the duck in your home for you."
These words not only relieved Tang Yin's embarrassment, but also made others happy.
But where the garden of the rich and noble has a small pond dug up, there are always one or two pairs of mandarin ducks or water ducks in it, this Tang Yin arranged it, and everyone moved to the Fuyang Pavilion, the Fuyang Pavilion is near the water, and it is a good place to feed the fish and enjoy the ducks.
When Ah Wu and the others arrived, the pavilion had already arranged the painting case, the four treasures of the study room and the paints for the drawing.
"I don't need color, it's too much work, I just make one with ink." Ah Wu slowly unfolded the white scroll, splashed ink, and everyone saw her pen walking the dragon, but only a few strokes, a cup of tea did not work, and the pair of water ducks in the snow wave pool of Tangfu swam to Ah Wu's pen.
The description is vivid and detailed, and the best thing is that the pair of water ducks is just a few strokes of ink, which is really simple, but it seems to be a real thing in the painting.
This time, not only did Ah Wu correct his name, but also let everyone see that Ah Wu not only did a good job, but also did it quickly, as if painting was just a gesture for her.
The last painting that Ah Wu sent to Tang Yin was a finely carved watercolor painting, and this one is an ink painting, each with its own merits, all of which made Tang Yin love it. Ah Wu was not a hypocrisy, which also made Tang Yin breathe a sigh of relief, she didn't like that the friend she valued was a hypocrite.
Of course, in this painting, the eyes of the water duck are still the technique of the county lord of Kangning, Gu Xihui saw what Ah Wu did, and felt more and more that she and the county lord of Kangning seemed to be the same.
Seeing that Ah Wu was not a fake, Hu Yahe smiled curtly, and under Tang Yin's gaze, he bowed his head and apologized to Ah Wu, "I'm sorry, I ......"
Tang Yin could stare at Hu Yahe, but Ah Wu didn't have this capital, so he hurriedly said: "Don't you dare to be, I know that Sister Hu is joking with me." ”
Hu Yahe nodded, even if he passed this level perfunctorily.
At the next small banquet, Ah Wu kept a low profile, because she showed off her skills as a general, and it was not suitable for her to be in the limelight again. During the banquet, the wine ordered the chanting and singing, and Ah Wu's performance was average, not outstanding but not mediocre.
Su Nian looked at Ah Wu differently, Tang Yin already liked her, Liu Hexuan was a peaceful and kind person, but Hu Yahe was a little less dissatisfied with Ah Wu, and felt that she was a little talented, so the people here were happy, drinking and ordering, so they were not happy.
When the banquet was about to end in the afternoon, Liu Hexuan looked at Tang Yin a few sadly, "Hey, next Echo Sister's birthday, I don't know if I can still come?" ”
Liu Hexuan is a gentle-looking and weak woman, and when she frowns between her eyebrows, she makes people feel pity.
"I don't follow, you have to come next time." Tang Yin took Liu Hexuan's hand and coquettishly.
Su Nian asked Liu Hexuan on the side, "Are you really going to get engaged?" ”
Liu Hexuan nodded, with a hint of shyness in his expression, but he was not very happy.
"Why is Sister Xuan unhappy, didn't she say that it was the eldest son of the Confucian Restaurant?" Tang Yin said. Although everyone has never seen the eldest son of the Kong family, they are all scholarly families, his family has always had contacts with the bachelor's mansion of the Liu family, and he also has a little bit of in-laws, so he must be a good person to come to Gongzi.
"She's worried that she won't be able to go out in the future." Liu Zonghe, the head of the Hanlin Academy, was old-fashioned, and once the children in the family were married, they were no longer allowed to go out and walk around, and they were locked up at home to embroider the dowry. The first is the style of the door, and the second is to put an end to possible scandals. Liufu is such a noble family, and it is a scholarly family, and scandals will never be allowed.
Everyone let out an "oh", and their emotions were a little low.
In order to enliven the atmosphere, Hu Yahe said: "Sister Nian, you are not young, your wife must also be looking at you, what kind of do you want to marry?" ”
Originally, her daughter's family shouldn't have asked these questions, but she has always played very well, and she does not shy away from saying anything to each other.
"I, I like to look good." Su Nian is also subtle, of course, there is also a little bit of an active atmosphere.
"The best-looking one in Beijing is in Sister Yin's house, and the other is in Sister Gu's house, you have to please them a little bit, and ensure that your wishes come true." Hu Yahe joked.
"Stinky girl, play tricks on your sister." Su Nian did not follow the situation and wanted to beat Hu Yahe.
Hu Yahe hid behind Gu Xihui's back and stuck out his tongue at Su Nian, "Isn't what I said right?" ”
The two most famous beautiful men in the capital are Tang Yu and Tang Xiujin of the Tang family, and Gu Tingyi, the second brother of Ah Wu and the second son of the eldest princess. Every time these two people go on the street, they don't know how many hearts of girls in the capital will be captured. There are also bold ones, and the sachets are thrown directly over.
Su Nian's face flushed, it seemed that her sweetheart was really between the two.
"I'll just say you're not right." Tang Yin pretended to be proud.
"How?" Hu Yahe asked.
"Although my eldest brother is a beautiful man, if you really want to say that the best in the capital, you have to count ......" Tang Yin pointed in the direction of the Forbidden Palace and made a "four" gesture.
"The ?!! of the Four Princes" Hu Yahe asked.
The author has something to say: Give me flowers, my mother also wants to be a flower beauty.
Brother Simao: Ha Luha, brother finally came out again. Although it's just a name. But as soon as the word "four" came out, who competed with it, Ha Luha, Ha Luha.
Wu: Cut, Xiujin's brother's name has come out many times. He also flew a kite with me.
Mama: Fog, it's not right to lie, who has ever flown a kite?
Brother Simao: Flying a kite? Fly a kite! Beware that I fly him like a kite.
Wu: It's like the rhythm of a vinegar jar.
Mama: Jealous and beautiful, otherwise why do you think he looks so beautiful?
