"Isn't it because, what's so hard to say?" Liu Zhengqing thought of the terrifying wound on Chu Feng's back, and guessed something in his brain......

Those who have prepared for the college entrance examination understand that kind of exhaustion.

In the days when Chu Feng was reviewing, sometimes he walked across the river with his schoolbag on his back, and looked at the elderly uncle and aunt who were exercising in the morning next to him, and he would suddenly envy the vitality of the other party.

It's really different.

Mental state, physical fitness. Even if you are in your youth, after experiencing the baptism of the college entrance examination, many things are not as good as the elderly. This is a very normal thing.

Chu Feng is not the kind of smart child, and he does not have all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor.

The only little talent he has is in ink and blue, and other things, especially in learning, have no other way to benefit except for stupid and hard work.

The gap between people is definitely there, and it's huge. This is something undeniable.

During his junior year of high school, he looked at the students in the class next to him who were escorted by the Olympiad, and looked at those who could squeeze into the forefront of the age with just a few studies, and who were good at musical instruments, sports, appearance, and style, and felt a bad feeling in his heart.

But that's the reality. That's the gap.

Chu Feng needs hard work, hard work, and a certain amount of luck to be admitted to the school of his dreams.

But now, it is impossible to verify whether he can pass the exam or not, and whether his preparations are of use.

This kind of thing is actually a bit depressing.

It's like playing a game, at the peak of play, and when you're about to challenge the final boss, the game suddenly announces that it's closed......

The punch came to an abrupt end, and there was nothing else except the sound of hunting and breaking the wind in his ears.

Faced with this situation, Chu Feng would also feel a little dazed, but soon, he wanted to understand a lot of things.

Why take the college entrance exam? Because he wanted to learn to draw. In the most powerful place, learn to draw the best paintings, learn the purest art.

Now, he can devote all his time to art. Practicing calligraphy, painting, and asking Mr. Wenduan for seals, there is no vulgar thing in his heart, and he has a bit of a taste of retreat.

Chu Feng was very satisfied with this environment, so he was ready to settle down like this. As for the future, there will always be changes, but why think too much about things when you can still be stable and enjoy it now? Philistine self-disturbance?

Chu Feng explained this idea to Liu Zhengqing a little, and the latter frowned and listened, and said with emotion: "Brother Chu is young, but he seems to have a very light view of fame. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, I can't figure it out. ”

Chu Feng smiled when he heard this: "Sai Weng lost his horse, he didn't know if it was a blessing, so why worry too much." "Lao Tzu" has a saying: There is no sin greater than desire, no misfortune is greater than discontentment, and no blame is greater than desire. Therefore, the foot of contentment is enough. Isn't that pure in heart and few desires? ”

Liu Zhengqing heard that he even pulled out the "Tao Te Ching", his eyes couldn't help but widen, and when he saw Mr. Wenduan walking in outside, he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the old man's sleeve, beat his chest and said, "Old man, did you hear me?" What the hell is this kid coming from? Can poetry, good calligraphy, allusions, know Lao Zhuang, the most important thing is that he is young, which still does not let us ordinary people live? ”

"How can Brother Liu say such an exaggeration?" Chu Feng was amused by his big chase and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll be honest." In fact, I only know such a few things, and now all my brains have been poured out, and I can only 'see people naked' in the future. ”

Chu Feng thought to himself, in fact, Liu Zhengqing praised these things for himself, only calligraphy was his own. Needless to say, the poems and texts are copied, Lu You's "Fortune Operator" is copied, and it is not considered his own ability. As for allusions and Lao Zhuang and the like, it may be more difficult for people of this era to know, after all, books are rare. But after a thousand years, it will be a feast there, and whoever wants to know, wants to learn, and can find it on the Internet. It's just that there are very few people who are interested in this area.

But Chu Feng is different, he likes to listen to all kinds of stories since he was a child. At first, his parents only told him some short and concise idiom stories, but when he grew up, he looked for some allusions from time to time. Whether it is a celebrity anecdote or a real occurrence in history (some of which are naturally apocryphal) are always much more interesting than many novels, films and television works.

Looking at it a thousand years later, Chu Feng's knowledge is nothing, but in the Song Dynasty, it is quite unbelievable.

Of course, there is no way to compare with the starry masters of the Northern Song Dynasty. Not to mention anything else, just talking about the topic of "fifty young jinshi", even the fifty-year-old Jinshi is considered a young man, but Su Shi was admitted at the age of twenty-one, his younger brother Su Zhe was on the same list at the age of eighteen, Ouyang Xiu was twenty-three years old as Jinshi and first, and Cai Xiang of Su Huangmi Cai of the Song Dynasty was eighteen years old...... This era is the era of real treasures and outstanding people.

Compared with everyone who shines brightly in this era, Chu Feng is so clever, he is really a firefly, how dare he compete with the sun and the moon?

Mr. Wen Duan listened to Liu Zhengqing's relay, and said with a smile: "The old man has long said that this kid is not enterprising and has no youthful madness, which is really hateful!" Yiming, you want to participate in the township test Qiuqiu, which means that the previous things have been dealt with? But do you have any worries? ”

Liu Zhengqing cleaned up when he heard this, and saluted Mr. Wenduan respectfully: "Thank you, Mr., I ran into a lawsuit before, and now it has been cleared up." If it weren't for Mr.'s thirty-tael silver, I, Liu Zhengqing, would probably not even be as good as a beggar living on the street now! The grace of reinvention will never be forgotten! ”

Lu Wenduan said with a smile: "The old man has long said that it is Chu Lang, a kid who borrowed the money from you, and it has nothing to do with the old man." ”

"Brother Chu's kindness is naturally remembered." Liu Zhengqing said with a smile, "There is a family in this Xishikou that invited me to be a Xixi seat and teach a little lady to read." Although the salary is not much, after all, it is more leisurely, and I can also prepare for the autumn festival. Brother Chu, I can only pay you back the money slowly. ”

Chu Feng said: "This is not in a hurry, it is not too late for Brother Liu to give it after he has spare money." ”

"Yes, I've thought about it too. Before I don't pay the money, this "Beijing Wine Post" will be deposited here by Brother Chu, and it can be regarded as a mortgage! Ha ha! ”

Chu Feng hesitated: "Brother Liu has to practice calligraphy to prepare for the township test, right?" Don't you need a copybook? ”

"Isn't there another fake!" Liu Zhengqing laughed, "Anyway, the second layer of this book has also been revealed, I have thought about it, rather than being heartbroken, it is better to use it." It's also a good thing that you and I have one for each brother. ”

Chu Feng thought about it a little and said, "It's a good thing that Brother Liu can see through nature. It's just that it's better for Brother Liu to keep the original post himself, and it's better to borrow it from me on the second floor. After all, the imperial examination is the main thing, and although the second-floor calligraphy is also very good, there are still some flaws after adding color, after all, it is not as good as the original post. ”

Liu Zhengqing blinked: "Let's be honest with Brother Chu, I can't see these things you said at all!" So, for me, there's not much difference between the two. ”

Chu Feng was helpless and shook his head with a smile.

……

……

When Chu Feng was talking and laughing, in a room in the inner courtyard of the Li Painting and Calligraphy Shop, Li Liangchen was sitting at the table and busy with something, while listening to Zheng Chaofeng's reply.

Zheng Chaofeng was three steps away from Li Liangchen, and because he was familiar with her temperament, Zheng Chaofeng did not dare to get too close. just took a sneak peek and found that she was holding a short and delicate handwriting with something written in a very small handwriting, which seemed to be a fly's head.

Li Liangchen was only wearing a pale cyan plain skirt, the skirt was swaying to the ground, but it didn't make people feel soft on her, but only showed a little coldness.

Zheng Chaofeng thought about the first time he saw the picture of the female owner, it was obviously the sunniest day in July, the cicadas were noisy, and people stood under the sun, and their faces were sweating. But on that day, under the sun, Li Liangchen's indifferent gaze swept over him, and he immediately felt like he was drenched in coldness, and there was only a piece of cold relish left in his heart.

Facing such a female owner, Zheng Chaofeng was really in awe and awe.

The way of imitation of the Li family began to circulate at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and has been inherited from the rise and fall of hundreds of years, both prosperous and declining. Now that the Li family's talents are withering, the owner Li Liangji is powerless, and he can only rely on such a female owner to support the backbone of the Li family, which is too difficult.

Zheng Chaofeng is the old man of the Li family, from the age of eleven or twelve to help the Li family, to now more than 30 years, he has long regarded himself as a member of the Li family, and he is also very familiar with the situation of the Li family inside and outside.

The Li family's fraud is not an ordinary fraud. The facsimiles made by the Li family must be good enough to mess with the real thing, and even the experts may not be able to see the loopholes.

Although Li Liangji is the male of the Li family, his skills are not good, and his heart is not quiet, so he can't bear the heavy responsibility of imitation, so he has to be an external owner. And Li Liangchen is just the opposite, although she is a daughter, her courage in her chest is not inferior to that of any man...... This is not a flattering word, Li Liangchen's arrogance and chic when he swayed ink is Zheng Chaofeng's departure from a distance, and he will feel shocked.

That's the spirit of swallowing mountains and rivers. It's something you can't learn.

It's just a pity that she's a woman after all......

The world is hard!

Zheng Chaofeng thought like this and sighed slightly.

"If there's something, just say it."

Li Liangchen opened his mouth in a sloppy manner, his eyes did not take his eyes off the book, and his pen did not stop at all.

She's serious.

When people get serious, they look good.

What's more, she was originally a very beautiful woman.

"The owner of the Lu family painting and calligraphy store has found it." Zheng Chaofeng panicked slightly, he would rather be deducted from his salary for a whole year than dare to make the female owner angry. Hurriedly gathered his thoughts, Zheng Chaofeng was careful and clear, "It is an old man, surnamed Lu, called Lu Hong, the character is Wenduan, Shanyin Lu's family." ”

"Sanyin Lu Clan?" Li Liangchen's light words showed a slight curiosity, "How did the old man of such a big family come here and open such a small calligraphy and painting shop?" ”
