In the next few days, Chu Chen was either studying high school courses, or working hard to study the materials and notes collected by the ancestors of the past dynasties taken from the master, and sometimes had a small gathering with friends, and for the first time as a family, they spent the annual National Day together, which can be said to be happy and fulfilling.

On the second day of the National Day, Chu Chen said hello to his family and drove to Yuhuating.

Some time ago, Liu Lao accidentally caught a cold, and he has been refusing to get better, plus he is old, and his mental state is very poor.

The family was very nervous when they saw this, and they persuaded Liu Lao to go to the hospital for treatment, after all, Liu Lao is an older generation, but the pillar of the family, it can be said that his physical condition is related to the political status of the family, in case something goes wrong, it will be a big blow to the whole family.

However, Liu Lao is also a stubborn temper, thinking that he just has a small problem like a cold, and it is natural to take some medicine, and he refuses to go to the hospital, and the family, including Chu Chen, takes turns to fight, but there is still no persuasion, and Zuihou can only invite the doctor to his home for treatment.

And in this case, Chu Chen didn't dare to mention the matter of Liu Sizhe's cousin to Liu Lao, in case the master's condition was aggravated because of this matter, then his sin would be great.

In this way, the day before yesterday, after treatment, Liu Lao's cold was finally about to get better, which made his family and Chu Chen all breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.

As Liu Qinshu came to the living room, Chu Chen found that Liu Sizhe was actually there, and at this time he was bowing his head to accept Liu Lao's reprimand.

Seeing this situation, Chu Chen also reacted. No wonder I felt that Sister Shu's expression was a little strange just now, probably because of this incident.

After Chu Chen came in. first greeted the two of them, and then asked, "Master." How's your body doing? ”

"Achen, here." Liu Lao smiled: "My body has been healed today, and I have fought a few times today, and I have no problem at all." ”

Hearing this, Chu Chen hurriedly said: "Master, you are just recovering from a serious illness, it is important to rest, and the exercise should not be too intense." ”

Liu Lao waved his hand and said, "What a big illness, it's just a small cold, it's fine." My body is clear to myself. Okay, let's not talk about that, you might as well take a look at this thing. As he spoke, he pointed to a blue and white jar on the table.

Seeing the embarrassed expression on Liu Sizhe's face, Chu Chen knew that this blue and white jar should have been bought by him, and judging from Liu Lao's reprimand just now, this blue and white jar was a fake, but when Chu Chen turned his attention to the blue and white jar. But he couldn't help but let out a soft "huh".

This blue and white jar has a straight mouth, a short neck, full shoulders, a flat and round belly, and a circled foot. The lotus pond is painted with blue and white on the body, depicting the lotus pond in midsummer, with rolling waves, blooming lotus flowers, green lotus leaves, and water plants. Shaking incense, colorful butterflies flying in the air.

zuihou, the blue and white double circle on the outsole is written in the six-character two-line regular script "Ming Chenghua Year".

At first glance, this device can be described as exquisite. The tire glaze is fine and crystalline, and the color material is selected and pure. The tones are soft and serene, and the paintings are elegant and graceful. It reveals a light and elegant artistic style, which is exactly the same as the style of Chenghua blue and white porcelain.

And this is also the fundamental reason why Chu Chen said lightly before, because this blue and white jar, at first glance, does not look like a fake at all, which makes him extremely curious, so he hurriedly took out a high-powered magnifying glass and observed it carefully.

Ming Xianzong Chenghua Dynasty, although only 23 years, but the essence of Yongxuan was inherited on the firing porcelain, but it also changed the vigorous and bold style of the Yongle Xuande period, determined to innovate, and its outstanding characteristics are exquisitely beautiful, skillful and fine, and the descendants have a high evaluation of it.

Chenghua blue and white can be divided into two categories: one is made in the early years of Chenghua, which is similar to Xuande blue and white in all aspects, especially the use of imported Su Ma Liqing, which is more difficult to distinguish from Xuande blue and white.

The other kind of thin, glaze white, blue light and elegant as the main characteristics, is the representative of Chenghua blue and white, the green material is selected "equal green" material, the color is light and soft, elegant and pleasant, the ornament adopts the double line outline color painting technique, the painting work is regular, the brushstrokes are beautiful, the sparse and dense are neat, the lines are beautiful and natural, giving people a fresh and pleasant feeling, elegant and refined, and are highly respected by the world. It is also similar to the later Hongzhi blue and white, so there is a saying that "Chenghong is not divided".

"Zhuyuan Tao Said" commented: "Cheng kiln brush ancient and modern unique, Gai Dan Qing wonderful hand on the porcelain piece, so the pen can be as thin as hair, with green as ink, dot dye painting, each perfect."

Mingren Shen Defu's "The Leftover Words of the Broom Xuan" has the praise of "Xuan kiln products are the most expensive, and they have recently been rebuilt into a kiln, out of the Xuan kiln".

Xu Zhiheng's "Drinking Liuzhai Says Porcelain" commented: "Chenghua is colorful, blue and white are extremely workmanlike, blue and white blue penetrates deep into the glazed bone, the brush is old, and Kangxi should be deterred."

However, it is a pity that this very characteristic green material was cut off because of a bloody struggle between porcelain workers and employers during the Jiajing period. "Jiangxi Dazhi? Tao Shu Zhongyun: "The old Pitang Qing is produced in the Leping side of the house, in Jiajing, Leping kills, and then stops. ”

The blue and white jar in front of you, looking at the performance of its blue and white hair color, should be the equal green material used, the hair color is soft and elegant, the color is very stable and calm, and it has a water black painting style.

However, if you take a closer look, you can see the flaws in it, because if it is a real equal green material, then it must be gray in blue, but the color of the green material on this device is only blue, not gray. And the glaze of the genuine product is moist and has a jade texture, and the glaze of this jar is fat, but it has not reached the point of that jade texture.

However, except for these two differences, other places are basically the same as the equal green material, which makes Chu Chen can't help but admire the superb skills of the counterfeiter.

After looking at it carefully for a while, Chu Chen put the blue and white jar back on the table and sighed: "What a powerful high-imitation porcelain!" If I hadn't known it was a fake, I would probably have been eye-catching! ”

Liu Sizhe heard Chu Chen say this, and glanced at Chu Chen gratefully.

"Achen, don't shirk this little rabbit." Liu Lao scolded with a smile: "I know that the level of imitation of this blue and white jar is indeed very high, and it is nothing to slap an eye on it, but you don't know, if it weren't for his greed, this thing could have been avoided at all." ”

"What's going on?" Chu Chen asked curiously.

"You ask him!" Liu Lao angrily snorted at Liu Sizhe.

"This ......" Liu Sizhe scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment: "The day before yesterday, I went to a friend's house to play, my friend's father also likes to play with porcelain, and spent 800,000 yuan to buy this blue and white jar some time ago, but the results of asking someone to identify it are not good, some people say it is genuine, some people say it is fake." ”

"I saw that this blue and white jar really didn't look like a fake, so I got it from him for 800,000 yuan."

Although Liu Sizhe said a little evasive, Chu Chen still somewhat understood his thoughts, you must know that if a blue and white jar like this from the Chenghua period is genuine, the market value should be around three million, and if it is bought for 800,000 yuan, it can be said that it is a big leak. It can be said that Liu Sizhe's mentality is exactly the same as what he thought when he bought the Tang Sancai camel.

Liu Lao shook his head and said, "You! I've always told you that playing antiques is the most taboo and greedy, and because of this, you've been hit so many times, why don't you still have a long memory! ”

Liu Sizhe sneered: "At that time, I was not confused by the tire of this blue and white jar, you see this blue and white jar, the fetal quality is pure and delicate, the carcass is light and thin, and the light perspective is tooth white or flesh red, such as fat like milk, smooth and clean, these are the typical characteristics of Chenghua kiln." ”

If you want to say that what Liu Sizhe said is right, but Liu Lao was angry when he heard this, pointed to his nose and scolded: "Little rabbit cub, I really want to be angry with you, you have been learning from me for so long, don't you know what a plain embryo is?" ”

The so-called plain embryo refers to the white clay blank, and the porcelain is called the clay embryo or plain embryo before it is glazed, which is made of kaolin and has a very light luster. Generally, in the ancient kiln factory, there will be more or less some ancient plain embryos handed down.

And some counterfeiters will use these embryos to make fakes, which can be very confusing, especially the fakes made by some very skilled counterfeiters, so that some experts are eye-catching. This kind of thing is not uncommon in the antique industry.

Although Liu Sizhe was very afraid of his grandfather, he still had some vision, seeing that his grandfather was really angry, he hurriedly took the initiative to admit his mistake, coupled with the persuasion of Chu Chen and Liu Qinshu next to him, after a while, Liu Lao's anger was almost gone.

Liu Lao shook his head and said angrily: "You, it's really rotten wood that can't be carved, since you saw the fetus, then you didn't pay attention to the style?" ”

"Knowledge?" Liu Sizhe scratched his head, picked up the blue and white jar again and looked at it carefully, after half a sound, his face was blue and white, and he was ashamed of himself.

The paragraph of the Chenghua year is written tall and powerful, as if it was from the hand of a person, and it is generally "the Ming Chenghua year". Its specific characteristics are that the tip of the word "big" is high and the round head is high, the word "cheng" is hard until the waist, the word "system" is big and small, and the word "clothes" is horizontal and does not cross the knife (traditional Chinese characters of the system).

And the style on this blue and white jar, although the first few words are basically no different from the real Chenghua model, but I don't know if the forger is careless or what, the word "clothes" is over the knife, although it is not too obvious, but if such a situation is genuine, it is impossible to happen.

Liu Lao said to Liu Sizhe seriously: "Now I know, you, you are too careless, if you were careful before, this eye would not be your turn to fight at all, you have to learn from Achen at this point!" (To be continued......)
