Chen Chun looked Bai Qichang up and down, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "But I haven't seen you for a few days, Qichang seems to have grown taller again?" It's a talent that has been overissued. ”

Bai Qichang lowered his head slightly, and said with a smile: "Mr. is too famous, Mr. is in good spirits!" ”

"Hahahaha!" Chen Chun stroked his beard and smiled: "No, it's old, it's old." Then he said, "What else is going on today?" ”

Bai Qichang shook his head and said, "Today is the day to learn painting, how dare the disciple arrange other things." ”

Chen Chun smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go, and take you to meet someone for the teacher." ”

Bai Qichang walked to Chen Chun's side with a smile and took half a step back to follow, and asked with a smile, "Are you participating in the Yahui?" ”

Chen Chun smiled and said, "Don't you always want to meet your teacher, Hengshan monk?" Today I will take you to him. ”

Bai Qichang was shocked, holding the fingers of the folding fan, trembling slightly, and then hurriedly arched his hand: "Thank you, sir." ”

Chen Chun turned his eyes to look at him, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Let's go, kid." ”

As he spoke, he walked forward with his hands in his hands.

Bai Qichang's heart trembled slightly.

A "child" easily made his heart tremble.

He had an illusion, an illusion of returning to Luming Academy, an illusion of merging the two old men Chen Chun and Luo Kui into one.

No, no, Mr. Shiraishi, not Mr. Haoran.

He told himself, and stubbornly pursed his lips, stepped on solid steps, straightened his back and followed behind Chen Chun.

Just like the promise Bai Qichang made on the day of the marriage.

"If Qi Chang covets the Chen family's business, if he doesn't respect or love Miss Chen, he will not be able to die and enter the ground, and he will definitely have two places on his head, and there will be no peace!"

He said so, and had already engraved this promise in his heart.

And over the past year, Chen Chun and even the entire Chen family have been kind to him like a mountain, and his heart has deepened and deepened.

Wen Zhengming was originally from Cheung Chau, and he was a world-famous calligrapher and painter, and his residence was elegant and comfortable.

Bai Qichang followed Chen Chun into the door and looked quietly.

I don't know when, a light snow drifted in the sky, and the thin snow was scattered in the air, one after another, like catkins. Occasionally, clumps of white snow hang on the corners of the eaves, like white lotus blooming on the eaves.

The green tiles are lined up, the eaves are clear, and there is quite a quiet charm.

There are three foyers at the main entrance of Wenfu. There are three small alleys in the foyer, leading to the northern half of the house. From here, enter the park and first go to the "Boya Hall". This hall is five rooms wide, the middle three rooms are halls, and the east and west rooms are set up as suites. The south of Boya Hall is a small courtyard, surrounded by corridors on all sides. To the south of the courtyard is a water pavilion that rises above the water, called "Yeonko Pavilion".

Turn the moon gate, and you will see a pool.

On one side of the pond, it is stacked with lake stones, and the mountains and rocks are craggy, and there are dangerous rocks protruding from the surface of the pond. The forest on the mountain is lush, looking from the distance of Yanguang Pavilion, it seems that the forest is dense, and the blue waves on the pond are contrasted with tranquility and elegance. There are five lion peaks on the mountain, and there are cloud peak fake stones. A small apothecary was opened at the back of the pond, where unknown medicinal herbs were planted.

To the east of Yanguang Pavilion is the Yanggu Library, which is a lecture hall for Wen Zhengming.

Sitting east and facing west, it is named after the place where the sun rises in ancient mythology. The study hall faces south, most of it is near the pond, and there is a corner in the northwest, and there is a patio for lighting. There is a small square pavilion in the south of the study hall called the Milk Fish Pavilion, and there are colorful paintings on the beams in the pavilion.

Bai Qichang breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice: "The layout of this garden is concise and cheerful, the style is natural and simple, there is no sense of cumbersome piling up and pinching artificiality, and its artistic value is far better than ordinary garden works. ”

Chen Chun smiled and said, "The scenery of every grass and tree in this garden is all from the hands of the teacher. ”

Bai Qichang sighed even more and said: "The layout of the whole garden is so clear, it can be seen that the layout of Hengshan monks is clever." ”

The two were arranged by the people of the Wen Mansion to sit in the small hall, the small hall is spacious and bright, the furnishings are not complicated, only the basic tables, chairs and tea sets, in addition, there are paintings and books hanging on the walls around them, and a large porcelain vase on the right side, in which many scrolls are placed.

Bai Qichang raised his eyes to look at the painting and said: "This "Wind and Rain Lonely Boat Picture" is quite similar to Mi Fu's style. ”

Chen Chun smiled and said, "Look at the one over there." He stood up and pointed to another painting of Listening to the Spring.

Bai Qi often looked at the paintings, looking at them up close or from a distance, and said slowly: "Observation is keen, the composition is concise, and the simplicity is simple. ”

Chen Chun laughed heartily, paced two steps to the side, and said with a smile: "These are all works of Mr. when he was young, and his colors are mostly painted in blue and green or light silk from time to time, which is elegant and quiet. Pointing to the painting on the wall next to him, he said, "Look at this one again." ”

Bai Qichang took a closer look and said, "This "Spring Tree Picture after Rain" is Zhao Mengfu's coloring method. Speaking of Zhao Mengfu's coloring compared with the Song Dynasty courtyard paintings, it is no longer the kind of gaudy and tacky color design, and he himself criticized the Song people's strong color design, despite this, Zhao Mengfu's somewhat exquisite and beautiful green landscapes still have the strong legacy of Song Dynasty courtyard paintings. Mr. Yokoyama can be said to have completely gotten rid of the gaudy and cheesy painting style of the Song Dynasty courtyard in the color of the green landscape, and from the point of view of his works, Mr. Hengshan skillfully fused the green method and the shallow descending method together, so that his works are both beautiful and elegant, and full of pen and ink interest. ”

Chen Chun said with a smile: "Mr.'s paintings do not simply use the brushwork and ink method of a certain person in the Yuan Si family, but are good at skillfully integrating the brushwork, composition and modeling of each family, and gather the strengths of all families. From the point of view of painting, Mr. Yuanren's study of brush and ink and formal beauty is quite profound, and the various brush and ink characteristics and modeling techniques of the Yuan Four Masters have been inherited and transformed in his paintings. ”

Bai Qichang only now knows why Chen Chun was willing to bring him to see Wen Zhengming after teaching him for a year.

A year ago, he was just a rough painting, but after this year of study, he can see the style of these major artists, and can also taste the subtleties in these paintings.

Bai Qichang arched his hand and said: "Mr. has a deep affection for his disciple, and the disciple has nothing to repay. ”

Chen Chun said with a smile: "You are already smart and keen, and you are diligent, as a teacher, it is just a few words, and it depends on your personal practice to achieve things." ”

At this time, an old man laughed heartily, slowly walked in the door, and said with a smile: "Hahahaha, Baishi, you disciple, it's much easier than when you started!" ”

Bai Qichang turned his head to look, and the person who came was tied with silver wire on his head, wearing a soot robe, and a hearty air, if he talked about this person, it was only eight words.

The light is shining brightly, and the atmosphere is above the clouds.

"I've seen you, sir." Chen Chun bowed respectfully.

Bai Qichang gently lifted his robe, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed three times cautiously: "Disciple Bai Qichang, a person from Runing Mansion, is seventeen years old, and kowtows to the ancestor." ”
