Chapter 630: Tea Before the Rain
Xichun likes to paint, but because there is no famous teacher to teach, he just reads some painting books by himself, and then paints some flowers and trees, insects, fish, birds and beasts and the like. Suddenly asked her to draw the Grand View Garden, which was indeed a little difficult for her.
After all, there are many strange scenery in the Grand View Garden, and those who do not have ravines in their chests cannot depict them.
But this is another "errand" sent to her by Jia's mother, Xichun doesn't want to lose face here, so she naturally has to draw a decent one, so she pulled Jia Qing, and between her words, she asked Jia Qing to think of a way for her......
It's a pity that Jia Qing's research on Danqing is not too deep, compared to Tanchun Daiyu and so on. Of course, if he wants to paint, he will definitely be able to draw. If it were a simple work, Jia Qing might be able to help Xichun get it, but what Xichun wants to paint is the Grand View Garden! This must have taken a lot of effort, where did he have so much time to help her.
Besides, this is also a workout for Xichun. If the painting is done well, it will definitely be a great improvement for her danqing attainments.
Therefore, Jia Qing decided to let Xichun paint it himself. At most, he found him someone who had a lot of time and patience to guide her......
Who to turn to?
Jia Qing looked at Xiangyun and Daiyu, who were no longer arguing. These two people can be said to be the most idle in the Grand View Garden, and they are very talented. Assist Xichun to paint, although not to say how good it must be, at least it is possible to complete the task.
Daiyu and Xiangyun naturally heard what Jia Qing and Xichun said, and when they saw Jia Qing coming over, they both made serious expressions, but their eyes looked at Jia Qing. The meaning is very clear, choose me, I can do it!
At this time, Ying'er spoke: "Second master, if you want someone to guide the fourth girl, you might as well find my young lady." Back then, my lord invited a famous teacher to teach my young lady, and even my husband said that my young lady was smart and sensitive, and Danqing was extremely talented......"
"Ying'er, don't talk nonsense, make people laugh."
Baochai interrupted Ying'er's boasting to her young lady at the right time.
"Yes, Sister Bao is very good at drawing. I have seen Sister Bao imitate Zhao Mengfu's "Autumn Suburb Drinking Horses", which draws the elegant charm and beauty of the horses in the suburbs in early autumn. I haven't seen Zhao Mengfu's real works, but I have seen a lot of imitations that have always been imitated, and in my opinion, Sister Bao's paintings are not worse than the real ones......"
"Poof."
Daiyu smiled again and said, "Yun girl, according to what you say, isn't Sister Bao even more powerful than the previous masters?" ”
Xiangyun glanced at her and said, "Anyway, I think Sister Bao draws well." ”
Baochai smiled: "Sister Yun is joking, I just used to graffiti when I was bored at home, but I didn't want to throw it away, so I just kept it." I was seen by her last time, and I want to take it back to see it, in fact, where is it as good as she said, but it's just her stubborn words, and I can't take it seriously. ”
When Jia Qing heard this, his heart was also moved. Famous paintings are generally not small, and not everyone has the courage to imitate them. Because it is easy to be accused of painting tigers and not being anti-dogs, stop laughing. But Baochai not only imitated it, but also kept it all the time, which shows that she herself is more satisfied, so it will be like this.
Of course, Jia Qing's focus is not on this, he is a layman, and he is concerned about ......
"Since Sister Yun said that Sister Bao's painting is good, it's naturally true, but I'm curious, can't Sister Bao have seen the authenticity of "Autumn Suburb Drinking Horses"?"
Only if you have seen the real thing, can you succeed in imitation. Otherwise, if you follow an imitation painting, do you still want to draw the artistic conception of the original painting? Unless it is the reincarnation of Zhao Mengfu......
When Baochai saw Jia Qing talking to him, he was worried that he would make the sisters laugh at what he was talking about. But when he finally spoke in a proper manner, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"I don't know if it's genuine, when I was a child, my grandfather loved to collect these famous paintings, one of which is Zhao Mengfu's "Autumn Suburb Drinking Horses". Then it came to my father, who didn't take it as seriously as my grandfather, so we had to look at it. I had nothing to do, and I happened to learn painting with my husband for two years, so I drew one according to it, and I originally did it in my spare time. ”
Baochai said modestly. But if she thinks it's not true, will she spend so much effort to imitate the painting?
Sure enough, it is worthy of the Xue family, whose pearls are like earth and gold, and even the famous paintings such as "Drinking Horses in the Autumn Suburbs" are also collected, and it is estimated that there are more than this one of such good things.
In this way, Baochai Bai Fumei's name is not fake at all......
"I wonder if Sister Bao can lend me the original painting? Dissatisfied with Sister Bao, the tutor also likes Zhao Mengfu's works very much, and many people will ask him to help them watch and identify such paintings. Over the years, he has seen a lot of Zhao Mengfu's authentic works, but he regrets that he has never seen the most famous "Autumn Suburb Drinking Horses". I am taking this picture today, just to let the family teacher take a look and solve his regrets. ”
Baochai thought about it, something like this is not wrong for people to look at and identify, but it will not be lent to others, Jia Qing must know this truth. But he still opened his mouth to borrow it, and he clearly said that he borrowed it for his teacher, which shows that in his heart, he no longer treats himself as an outsider. So she said, "It's easy, wait until I go back and ask my mother to see if she has brought the painting to the capital." ”
"Okay." Jia Qing smiled and nodded. He knew that when Bao Chai said this, he meant that he would ask her mother about it. The Xue family is not a temporary residence in the capital, and valuable things naturally have to be taken away, so there is no reason to stay in Nanjing.
At this time, Dai Yu said in a coquettish voice: "Didn't you say that Sister Xichun's painting, why did it go so far again?" It's all to blame Yun girl, what to say about Zhao Mengfu, and what to say about horses drinking water, but someone is like he has never seen it, and he is in a hurry to see it. I see that there are quite a lot of horses raised in your house, and when the Ming Dynasty is in the autumn, they are all brought out to let them drink water, isn't it better than the painting? ”
Daiyu is elegant, no one can compare. But if she slanders Sven, she will also be right.
Xiangyun took a sip and said, "You don't make trouble." Then he said to Jia Qing: "Let Sister Bao teach the fourth sister to draw, she will definitely be able to draw well!" ”
Jia Qing nodded with a smile and looked at Baochai. Baochai said: "Just leave the fourth sister's painting to me, you are so busy outside, don't be distracted by this." ”
"Wow ......"
Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, and when she saw everyone looking at her, she hurriedly said, "It's nothing, I just remembered something funny......
Only after a little aftertaste, Baochai knew what she was laughing at, and for a while, even if she told herself countless times to be generous, she still couldn't help but hate the root of her teeth.
Not to mention that Xichun heard that Baochai was a "painting master", so he hurriedly ran over to ask for advice on how to complete the task. only said that after Ping'er hugged the eldest sister for a while, she thought it was very noisy here, so she wanted to hug Sister Qiao back.
"Sister Ping'er, wait, I'll go with you."
Li Su hurriedly said: "It's only been a while, why are you in a hurry to leave?" ”
Xiangyun also persuaded: "Yes, today is the Guyu Festival, my sister-in-law made someone pick a new tea early in the morning, and it was ready, and she wanted to invite us to drink tea before the rain, and after drinking tea, we had to go to see the peony together." There are a few peonies under the corridor of Daoxiang Village that are blooming just right, and it is a pity not to see them at this time. ”
Jia Qing smiled, feeling that they had a good time gathering together today. is also very idle, this festival and that festival, according to this calculation, half of the year is spent on festivals.
"Haha, forget about this pre-rain tea, I just drank my sister-in-law's pre-Ming tea (picked on the Qingming Festival) last time, I haven't had a good aftertaste of it, so I won't participate today, and I'll drink this pre-rain tea again next year, and I won't rush it."
Jia Qing laughed.
After listening to this, everyone knew that Jia Qing was probably in trouble, otherwise, he would definitely be willing to stay, so he didn't keep it anymore, but he regretted it in his heart.
"Alas......"
After Jia Qing followed Ping'er away, Daiyu heard Xiangyun sigh and asked with a smile, "What are you sighing for?" ”
Xiangyun gave her a blank look. said: "Brother Bao is sick, and it is okay to be detained in the house by his wife." The second brother is not idle! In the morning, I went to look for him in Tubi Villa, and Qingwen said that he was not in the village, but was sleeping in Ning'an Hall. It was then that I remembered that he had been on duty in the palace last night.
I thought he should be free in the afternoon, but I didn't expect to go back. ”
"Hehe, what kind of heart are you, people are busy with 'big things' outside all day long, and they will be sealed in the future. Some people are relieved in their hearts, but you are sighing here, it's really funny. ”
Daiyu deliberately accented the word "big event".
"Who? Who are you talking about? Xiangyun asked hurriedly.
Don't look at the two of them often bickering, in fact, the relationship is very good, because they appreciate each other. Except that Xiangyun sometimes feels that Daiyu is "stingy", there is nothing else.
Daiyu just laughed and didn't say anything.
Baochai still didn't hear it, and bowed her head to talk to Xichun.
