"Xiexie Liu Lao, then I will be disrespectful."

What caught Chu Chen's eyes was the teacup, which was actually still a lemon yellow glazed teacup, which looked thin and light. Its inner wall is white glaze, and the outer wall is full of lemon yellow glaze, the glaze is delicate, warm and elegant, pure and flawless.

Although in terms of performance, this is a modern work, but in terms of tire, glaze and shape, it is undoubtedly a fine work, and the craftsmanship level of the maker is at the top of modern ceramic firing. This teacup makes people love it at first sight, and when they taste the tea, they complement each other even more.

Looking at the tea soup in the tea cup, it is burgundy, but crystal clear, and then there is a faint fragrance of tea wafting out, Chu Chen came from the tea ceremony knowledge he had recently learned, this should be the tea soup brewed by the best Da Hong Pao, and the taste must be extremely haode.

Chu Chen couldn't wait to pick up the teacup, and the back end reached the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, and suddenly a refreshing peach aroma penetrated into his heart, which immediately made people feel refreshed, and after exhaling again, he could actually smell the faint fragrance. From this point of view, it shows that Liu Lao's big red robe is not simple.

The aroma of the tea soup alone had already made Chu Chen's saliva begin to secrete rapidly, making him have the idea of drinking the tea soup in one go. However, the tea is divided into three bites, if you don't taste it, how can you get such a good tea.

After carefully tasting three sips of tea soup, Chu Chen couldn't help but shout in his heart, okay! This tea is the texture of the entrance, and gives people a sense of smoothness, before feeling much bitterness has been sweet, after drinking, it is full of aftertaste, it can be described as refreshing and sweet, the fragrance of tea overflows, and the aftertaste is eternal.

Seeing Chu Chen's memorable expression, Liu Lao smiled and said, "Xiao Chu, how about my tea?" ”

Chu Chen replied with a smile: "Old Liu, let me tell you the truth, this tea is really good, it is the best haode Da Hong Robe I have ever drunk." I will summarize it in four sentences, the soup is bright and bright, the roasting is light and fragrant with peach honey, sweet and smooth and smooth Long Yanyue, and Jiulong Yiyan Jun comes to taste. Liu Lao, take the liberty of asking, this tea can't be from the mother tree, right? ”

After Liu Lao heard this, Hahadaxiao said: "Xiao Chu, okay, look at your appearance, you are also a little good at tea tasting, what you said is not wrong at all, this is the tea produced on the mother tree." ”

Chu Chen said modestly: "Old Liu, you have won the award, I am just a beginner in the tea ceremony, and I can't talk about anything at all." However, Mr. Liu, you are so polite, this kind of good tea is actually wasted on me. ”

Liu Lao waved his hand and said with a smile: "What is wasted and not wasted, you are not inferior to others, and besides, tea, it is used to drink, how can you show the essence of tea if you don't drink it?" Of course, the people who come to me can only drink this big red robe if I can see it. ”

When Chu Chen heard Liu Lao say this, he immediately smiled happily and said secretly: "When Liu Lao said this, doesn't it show that he can take a fancy to himself?" In this way, maybe when the time comes, you can really worship Liu Lao and sit down, Chu Chen, you have to fight! ”

Liu Lao and Liu Qinshu were overflowing with joy when they saw Chu Chen's excitement, and they both smiled.

"Xiao Chu, do you know that I asked you to come here today?"

Chu Chen was slightly stunned after hearing this, and immediately reacted, and said with some surprise: "Old Liu, is that Mr. Banqiao's work already framed?" ”

Liu Lao nodded and smiled: "Yes, you are really coincidental, but it is also a coincidence that you chose the time to frame, it is summer, the painting is dry quickly, coupled with my unique craftsmanship, it is almost finished." Xiao Chu, come and take a look, do you feel satisfied? ”

Only then did Chu Chen notice that his bamboo and stone drawing of Zheng Banqiao was hanging not far from the left, so he followed Liu Lao to the painting.

Under this look, Chu Chen was suddenly amazed by Liu Lao's craftsmanship. Although he didn't know much about the art of mounting, he could still see that the framing of this painting was really good!

The bamboo and stone picture framed by Liu Lao is not only more antique, but also sets off the artistic conception of this bamboo and stone picture, which looks more brilliant than before, making people feel particularly pleasing to the eye. No wonder as the saying goes, three points are framed in seven points, which can be seen from this bamboo and stone drawing.

"Old Liu, your craftsmanship is really amazing!" After reading it, Chu Chen gave Liu Lao a thumbs up in admiration.

Liu Lao was also very satisfied with his framing this time, and said with a slight meaning: "It's also your work that makes my old bones rejuvenated, but you can't take this painting yet, I still have to deal with it a little." ”

Chu Chen waved his hand and said, "Old Liu, I'm not in a hurry, and I didn't promise you before that I would leave my words for a month." ”

Liu Lao jokingly said: "Haha, it's good if you have this heart, really stay for a month, be careful that I give the painting to greed." ”

Hearing Liu Lao say this, Chu Chen smiled and said: "Liu Lao, it doesn't matter, I'm still like what I said before, as long as I can see this work often." ”

Liu Lao smiled and pointed at him: "You are also a tired goods, okay, listen to Qin Shu What important things do you have?" ”

"You sit down first, let's talk."

After Chu Chen saw Liu Lao sit down, he took out the piece of paper and handed it to Liu Lao: "Liu Lao, you take a look at this first." ”

Liu Lao took the piece of paper, a little curious about what was written on it, but the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, and Zuihou said with a serious face: "Xiao Chu, where did you get this thing?" Has anyone else seen it? ”

Chu Chen briefly told what happened, and then said: "The things recorded on this are only seen by me and Uncle Wu, and we all feel that only you can use the things written on it for the right path." ”

When Liu Lao heard this, he was also relieved, he was most afraid that what was written on it would be spread, so he said with some jokes: "You and Ziping, this is roasting me on the fire!" ”

Chu Chen waved his hand again and again: "How dare we, we think that at this time, only a respected old-timer like you can solve this matter perfectly." ”

Liu Lao said with a smile: "Since Xiao Chu said so, I can only put it on the top at the critical moment, this piece of paper, just put it here for me, don't you worry?" ”

"What's wrong with this, I didn't plan to take this piece of paper back, it was originally given to you, don't worry, I definitely don't have a backup of this paper." Speaking of zuihou, Chu Chen's face was a little serious.

Liu Lao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, Xiao Chu, don't be so serious, I still believe your words, but you also threw me a hot potato, which made me nervous for a long time." ”

Chu Chen scratched the back of his head and said with a smile: "Hehe, Liu Lao, then let's take a look at the two things I got from Xijing this time, and it can be easy and easy." ”

"Oh, then I'm going to take a look, Xiao Chu, the things you bring every time are not simple, this time you won't let me down, right?"

Liu Lao opened the brocade box that Chu Chen put on the table as he spoke, and then a particularly beautiful statue of Manjushri Bodhisattva suddenly came into the eyes of the three of them.

When Liu Qinshu saw this statue, he said in surprise: "This is the statue of Yongxuan, Xiao Chu, you have another heavy weapon!" ”

Chu Chen was a little surprised that Liu Qinshu's eyesight was so good, he saw it right at a glance, and immediately gave a thumbs up and smiled:

"Aunt Liu, your eyesight is really unspeakable!"

"I don't have that much eyesight, it's just because Xiao Chu every time you take something amazing is amazing, so I boldly guessed." Liu Qinshu said with a smile.

Liu Lao looked at the statue in his hand and said with a smile: "Xiao Shu, your attitude is not right, how can you not get started, and judge the authenticity of things based on guesswork?" However, Xiao Chu's things are really good, the shape is natural, full of charm, this kind of craftsmanship is rare in the Xuande period, so it is not only a genuine product, but also a rare treasure. ”

Then, he said with admiration: "And you see, the condition of this statue is so well preserved, and the gilt has basically not fallen off, which is really commendable." This kind of Yongxuan Buddha statue is not nothing, but it is really rare, most of them are in the hands of major museums, and private individuals are really rare. ”

"Dad, is it so well preserved?" Liu Qinshu asked with some curiosity.

Liu Lao thought for a while, and then said: "Well, I think it is also related to the culture of Tibet." Statues like this were given to local monks or nobles back then, because of the relationship between the belief in Buddhism, so the people there respected the Buddha very much, and they must have done their best to preserve it. Even if they were exiled at the beginning, the people who got it should also be people who worship Buddhism. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Lao said to Chu Chen: "Xiao Chu, since you got it, you should also take good care of it like the previous masters, so that they can also respect the Buddha." By the way, I heard that Xiao Chu is not from the capital, so where do you live now, is it a rented house? ”

Chu Chen said a little embarrassed: "Yes, I still rent someone else's house now, this time I went to Xijing to get some money, and I plan to buy a house." I also thought that after having a house, my antiques could be more preserved and safeguarded. ”

"Yes, Xiao Chu, you think well, and the ancients also said that living and working in peace and contentment, and when the place where you live is stable, you can find your career more haode. Have you ever considered what kind of house you want to buy? Liu Lao asked him.

"I used to like courtyard houses, but now when I see where you live, I feel that this style is very close to my inner home, so I decided to buy a residence like yours. Old Liu, I'm not a little ambitious. Speaking of zuihou, Chu Chen was a little embarrassed.
