When the Fan family really realized that the calligraphy and painting had been dropped, it was already the third day of walking on the road.

In the end, this place is not as good as Jiangnan, there is no misty smoke and rain, the dry heat gradually rises between the sky and the ground, and the summer insects can't stop chirping, the sound is almost piercing.

In order to take care of Fan Qiubai's body, and also to protect everyone from the scorching heat. The convoy only travels in the early morning and evening, and when the heat rises at noon, they find a tea house or a farmhouse to rest. In this way, although the road is slower, it is true that there will be no sin.

The carriage on the official road was also smooth, but it was impossible to write books and paint. Chu Feng and Fan Qiubai can't be like when they were on the boat, occasionally joking in the same cabin, painting and calligraphy together.

Chu Feng lifted the curtain and looked at the carriage in front of him, knowing that Fan Qiubai was sitting inside.

As if he had a heart, Fan Qiubai also happened to lift the curtain probe at this time to take a look, and the two looked at each other from a distance, their eyes met, making Fan Qiubai's complexion flush again.

Chu Feng smiled slightly and bowed.

Fan Qiubai also smiled generously, and shook the hand holding the silk handkerchief in the direction of Chu Feng lightly, as a greeting.

There is a lesbian car, Yan Ru Shunhua. Will soar, Pei Yu Qiongju. Bimei Meng Jiang, Xun Mei and Both.

This is a poem in the "Book of Songs", although this scene is not a lesbian car now, but the interest in it is not far behind.

Chu Feng thought like this and smiled.

"Chu Langjun will definitely be able to go to high school when he enters Beijing this time."

Sitting opposite was the shopkeeper Zhao, the head of the Fan family's companionship this time.

Shopkeeper Zhao is a middle-aged man over 40 years old, and he is a warm person. acts seriously, and looks quite like the style of those star hotel foremen in later generations. It's just that Shopkeeper Zhao has three more points of civility on his body. After all, what I do is calligraphy and painting, daily contacts. are all "talking and laughing, and there is no vain in communication", and they are quite particular about their behavior, and they have gradually dyed their temperament with a bit of literati popularity.

Six road-drawn carriages were hired. Fan Qiubai and Feibai took a ride, Mr. Wenduan and Mr. Cheng Yuan took a ride, Chu Feng and Zhao shopkeeper took a ride, and the remaining three cars were used to carry goods.

All the way to traffic, Chu Feng had to talk to Shopkeeper Zhao about all kinds of things. Calligraphy and painting talk about nature the most, and Chu Feng's temperament ...... He couldn't understand the other parents. Only when it comes to the topic of calligraphy and painting, can he say that he is ugly with a slight excitement.

Shopkeeper Zhao heard about Chu Feng's name after the ink meeting, and after contact with him in the past few days, he admired this humble and polite, not arrogant and impatient young man. Especially when chatting about some things about calligraphy and painting, the young man's point of view is always very novel and interesting, which may seem abrupt and surprising at first glance, but when you think about it carefully, it has a lot of truth. So he gradually admired Chu Feng.

"High school or not is secondary, but you can see the customs of Tokyo. By the way, I will be content to enjoy the calligraphy and paintings here. ”

Chu Feng replied with a smile.

The wind was too warm to blow in through the windows, and the curtains blocked the dazzling light of the eastern sun, but it could not stop the heat of the fireball.

Fortunately, the car shop is windy. It's not too stuffy in the carriage.

Shopkeeper Zhao was a little fat, and he was obviously a little unbearable at this time, and the handkerchief in his left hand wiped the sweat on his forehead from time to time. The folding fan in his right hand waved extremely frequently, and there was a heavy and muffled gasp. But it still occasionally rings in the carriage.

"I'm so sorry." Shopkeeper Zhao was a little embarrassed and said embarrassedly. "I'm afraid it disturbed Chu Langjun's rest."

Chu Feng shook his head with a smile: "What did Shopkeeper Zhao say." If it weren't for your host's arrangement, the two gentlemen and I wouldn't know how to get to Beijing. Now it's impossible to get lost, where is the leisure of riding in the car. ”

Shopkeeper Zhao smiled and said a few kind words.

Chu Feng saw that he was a little restrained, so he casually found the conversation: "Shopkeeper Zhao's folding fan seems to have a good background?" ”

Shopkeeper Zhao was stunned when he heard this, stopped the fanning of the folding fan, nodded and said: "Chu Langjun has good eyesight, this fan was left by a flower and bird master in Tokyo City in the early years, called Zheng Yuanran, I don't know if Chu Langjun has heard of it." Because I happened to do him a favor, that's why I got this fan, which I was going to use as a family heirloom...... When Chu Langjun said this, I remembered it. Among the goods in our line, there are paintings of this person. If Chu Langjun is interested, why don't I let them find out and see one or two? ”

Chu Feng shook his head and smiled: "There's no need to be so troublesome, it's not too late to have a chance to watch it in the future, and it's not necessary to deliberately look for it." ”

Shopkeeper Zhao said with a smile: "It's not a troublesome thing, it's easy to find a place to rest at noon for a while, and it's easy to rummage." By the way, I will dig out a few notebook novels for my little lady, and everyone will look at them on the road, which is enough to eliminate the eternal summer. ”

"Shopkeeper Zhao is thoughtful." Chu Feng said with a smile.

……

……

Before and after the group walked to the middle of the day, the hot breath seemed to be pushed out of the ground, and the sky and the earth were like cages, almost urging people to burn.

The heat wave blew in one after another, and you could feel the heat of the ground under your feet through your shoes and socks. Beads of sweat couldn't help but flow down from his forehead, knotting his hair into a slippery one, clinging tightly to his scalp, sullen and tired.

Shopkeeper Zhao stopped the convoy early and stopped in a village of more than a dozen families.

Looking around for a fairly clean family, the shopkeeper Zhao gave the family a consistent amount of money, asking them to vacate the room and make some food for these people by the way.

Tsai carefully instructed, Zhao shopkeeper still felt uneasy, followed the farmer to the room to look around, and felt that it was quite clean, so he nodded, and arranged a clever boy to watch from the side, and told him to pay attention to hygiene.

arranged a room for the two old gentlemen and their own ladies to take a lunch break, and the shopkeeper Zhao was fine for a while, so he led Chu Feng to the three carriages to rummage through calligraphy and paintings.

The goods on the carriage were carried too heavily, so they were simply led directly to the shade and put them, and then put four or five people to take care of them. The horses were led to forage, so only the wheels and wagons were placed diagonally at the base of the wall. A few small servants also sat under the wall to watch and laugh, and saw the shopkeeper Zhao coming over from a distance. They all stood up with a grin.

"Thank you brothers, I deliberately let the farmer kill a few chickens. Let's have a good meal at noon to satisfy our cravings. Shopkeeper Zhao said with a smile, "It's just that I've memorized everything, if nothing happens, let's eat and drink spicy food." On this hot day, it is easy to get sleepy at noon, who loses something because of a nap at noon. Hehe, don't blame me for not speaking for you in front of the owner! ”

A lecture with clear rewards and punishments, the young guys responded one after another, where did they dare to be careless.

Shopkeeper Zhao explained the reason again. Laughing, these little guys opened a box, turned back to Chu Feng and smiled: "Chu Langjun, I also turned over a lot of Tibetan scrolls on the boat a few days ago." My lady has liked these things since she was a child, and now that she has received the guidance of Mr. Cheng Yuan and Chu Langjun, she can see that she is very happy. Haha, the little lady is happy, and those of us also feel refreshed. ”

"Where is the shopkeeper Zhao, I have also gained a lot from Fan Niangzi. Fan Niangzi is extremely talented in Danqing. I'm inferior. Chu Feng said.

"Haha! Chu Langjun's words, how do I sound familiar? Yes, my little lady seems to have said the same. Fun and fun! Shopkeeper Zhao laughed twice and looked at Chu Feng with a smile. lowered his voice and asked, "Chu Langjun, don't ask a question." Don't bother me. ...... your age Can you tell me whose girl? ”

Chu Feng naturally understood what he was referring to, and shook his head with a smile: "I didn't care about this matter." ”

"Oh. I see. Shopkeeper Zhao nodded in response and didn't say anything. But there is naturally something in mind.

If this Chu Langjun can really be admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts and serve in the palace, this is also a very glorious thing. Moreover, Chu Feng has characters like Cheng Yuan and Lu Wenduan as masters, and he will be an official in the government and the opposition in the future, so help is naturally indispensable. Because of her poor health, her own lady has never said anything about marriage...... Although he is only a shopkeeper of the Fan family, half of the identity of a subordinate, after all, he watched the little lady grow up, so he naturally has a feeling.

This Chu Langjun ...... Anyway, after contact in the past few days, the character is very good, and the appearance is naturally needless to say. The most important thing is that her little lady seems to have some heart. If they can be matched together, it can be regarded as a talented and beautiful woman, a match made in heaven.

Of course, these are just the bold ideas of one of his shopkeepers. After all, it is a lifelong event for the little lady, where do you dare to say anything easily. It is still the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker that is the right reason.

"Shopkeeper, look, is this the box?"

The guy in charge of the goods lifted a box from the carriage and asked with a grin.

"It should be this, I remember that Zheng Yuanran's painting was placed here. It should be somewhere under the box, you should be careful and look for it slowly, don't stain the calligraphy and paintings. Shopkeeper Zhao instructed.

"Yes! Don't worry! ”

The little girl smiled and responded, and had already cleaned his hands, but at this time, he rubbed his clothes on his chest twice, removed the scrolls on the upper layer of the alley one by one, and went to take the middle scroll and open it to see.

"I've been walking this road a lot in the past few years, and it's always a little more unbearable in the summer. Fortunately, the official road is quite flat, and it is always okay to read idle books on the carriage. Shopkeeper Zhao wiped the sweat on his forehead with a smile, wiped the beads of sweat on his neck, raised his head and squinted, and glanced at the dazzling sun overhead, "I asked the kitchen to prepare sour plum soup, and Chu Langjun will drink a few bowls in a while." Clear the heat and relieve the heat, for it is the only one. Ha ha! ”

At this time, the faces of the little guys who helped to find the scroll changed, and they glanced at each other, showing a little horror in their eyes.

He hurriedly closed the scroll, went to get another one, and unfolded it.

What came into view, the little girl's face became even paler.

"The ...... of the Boss and the Shopkeeper"

The little girl's voice became very hoarse, and the hands holding the scroll trembled slightly.

"Don't look at my lady's weak body, but she likes sour things very much. Every time the sour plum soup prepared for her in the kitchen has to be cooked separately, because the sugar has to be put very little. I once tasted a mouthful, tsk, sour straight to the teeth! Ha! I don't know how my little lady can stand it......" Shopkeeper Zhao and Chu Feng were gossiping, talking and laughing, "Huh? What's wrong? Can't find it? It should be at the bottom, don't be in a hurry, look for it slowly. It's still a little windy, so it's cooler, so it's okay to wait a little longer. ”

"No, shopkeeper...... Here, these, no, no more......"

The little girl's voice also began to tremble, and he swallowed a mouthful of spit, but he still felt that his throat was painful, as if there were several blades scraping.

"What's missing? Make it clear? Shopkeeper Zhao gradually restrained the smile on his face.

"Calligraphy and painting, no ......"

The little girl's hands and feet were cold, and he took half a step back in horror, his hands shook, and the scroll fell to the ground.

"Be careful of getting dirty!" Shopkeeper Zhao exclaimed, frowned, and immediately jumped forward two steps, wanting to reach out to the ground to get it, but as soon as his hand was stretched out, the whole person froze there.

Chu Feng hurriedly stepped forward to help, and when he caught a glimpse of the picture scroll that fell to the yellow earth, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Perhaps, it shouldn't be called a picture scroll.

Because the "picture scroll" was empty, a blank piece of paper, without a trace of ink and danqing.

Shopkeeper Zhao pushed Chu Feng away in a panic, rushed forward, and opened the calligraphy and paintings in the box one by one.

Blank.

Blank.

Blank!

It's still blank!

……

Shopkeeper Zhao's hands trembled more and more, and the heat in his body quickly flowed away. He no longer felt the heat unbearable, but his whole body was cold.

After all, it was dark in front of me, and I fell backwards.

Chu Feng hurriedly stepped forward to help, looked at the blank paper that was spread out on the ground, and frowned.

"You first help the shopkeeper Zhao to the room, and I'll ask if there is Lang Zhong in the village." Chu Feng looked at the little guys next to him and commanded.

No one moved, they were all startled, and stood there stunned for a moment, their eyes stiff.

Chu Feng frowned, raised his voice, and said loudly: "Help Shopkeeper Zhao in!" ”

The little guy closest to him trembled, recovered from his shocked stunnedness, and obeyed Chu Feng's orders in a panic.

The others gradually came back to their senses and took the shopkeeper Zhao over.

Chu Feng looked at the white paper on the ground, his brows furrowed.

When he was on the ship, he had rummaged through these paintings and calligraphy, and there was no problem. When he got off the boat, Shopkeeper Zhao also made a simple inspection, and there was still nothing unusual...... How the hell is this, how did you lose it? When was someone rebagged?

Chu Feng was puzzled, and couldn't think of the context of the matter for a while, so he shook his head.

The top priority is to help find a doctor, the goods can be found again if they are lost, if something happens to people, there is no chance to make up for it!

Chu Feng looked at the villagers gathered in groups in the distance, and ran over with a placket.

"Ladies and gentlemen, are there any Lang Zhong in your village?" (To be continued.) )
