Chapter 142: Seeking Paintings

Ah Mei really used the night time to catch up with the purse, because she didn't want to attract everyone's attention, Zeng Rong didn't come to her side.

Fortunately, this period of time is approaching the end of the year, everyone has a little leftovers or something, most people are willing to use this leftovers to make up a purse or sachet, insoles or something, as long as they don't take it out and sell it, keep it for their own personal use, it's not a big problem, so Amei's busyness doesn't feel abrupt in the eyes of everyone.

But Zeng Rong, this time, she doesn't have to rush to work at night, most of the time is spent reading, after entering the embroidery workshop, she more and more realized a sentence, "the book to use the time to hate less", she has put herself on that height, whether it is the previous splendid workshop or the current embroidery workshop, her embroidery is her own design, and every time the other party asks a lot, either elegant and noble or graceful luxury, or chic and interesting, etc., and these conditions must have a common denominator, unique, but what she has learned is limited after all, Therefore, the only way to seize the evening time is to read more books and take more reading notes.

There is also a green lotus who has the same hobby as Zeng Rong, the regular clothes in the green lotus's hand are still not completed, and Liu Chunmiao has extended it for her to a young year, so there is no need for her to go to the workshop at night to catch up with work. Therefore, she also used the evening time to study and practice calligraphy, and occasionally there were words that she didn't understand or didn't know would take the initiative to come to Zeng Rong for advice, Zeng Rong would teach her wholeheartedly, but she would not chat with her, nor would she accept any of her overtures.

On this day, Zeng Rong was studying the "Analects. Yongye", Lu He took a copy of "One Hundred Songs of Song Ci" and came to her, pointing to Li Qingzhao's "Like a Dream Order. Chang Ji Xiting Sunset", there are many words in it that she doesn't know, and at the same time, she also wants to know if this Li Qingzhao's Yi'an Jushi is the same person as the Yi'an Jushi in Qin Chuxue's mouth that day.

Zeng Rong suspected that she was sick and lived in Qin Chuxue's house for three days, and she must have found out that Qin Chuxue had a preference for Li Qingzhao, no, Zeng Rong taught her to read this poem again, and Green Lotus explained it to her again, and after the explanation, Green Lotus made another request, wanting to ask Zeng Rong to help her draw this poem, saying that she was very envious of the girls in the words.

Without waiting for Zeng Rong to open his mouth to refuse, Ah Mei, who was separated by several bunks, quit, looked up and said: "It's almost done, don't be faceless and skinless, draw it, it's easy for you to say, how can we Ah Rong have this work?" ”

"Sister Amei, Ah Rong also has to practice painting on weekdays, what to paint is not painting, it's a big deal that I will buy this painting with some silver."

This was a strange remark, and Zeng Rong asked, "What do you want this painting to do?" ”

"I want to embroider it and make a small kang screen or pendant, I like and envy the women in the lyrics, they are so happy." Green Lotus looked at Zeng Rong with a little pleading in his eyes.

Zeng Rong's heart moved, guessing that there must be some special reason why Lu He wanted this painting, and it was not ruled out that he wanted to use this embroidery to please Qin Chuxue, which didn't seem to be a bad thing for Zeng Rong, just to block the cow ghosts and snake gods outside for Zeng Rong, so that she could see who would jump out.

Of course, it is also possible that she thinks too much about herself, and Lu He just simply likes this song, which is not a loss for Zeng Rong, but it is just a waste of one night's work.

After thinking about it, she agreed, "Okay, but to put it mildly, I have limited conditions now, so I can only draw freehand, and when you go back and draw the patterns yourself, think about how to match the colors." ”

"Ah Rong." Ame was upset.

"Sister Amei, it's okay." Zeng Rong hinted.

Seeing Zeng Rong packing up the things on the box and starting to grind the ink, Ah Mei glanced at the green lotus, and muttered a few more words, although the green lotus was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to make trouble again.

Besides, Zeng Rong sharpened the ink and laid out the rice paper, but did not rush to put down the pen, but closed his eyes, and went through the poem again in his mind, as if he heard the coquettish voices of several girls and the movement of gulls and herons fluttering out of the lotus pond, and there was even a picture of a girl reaching out to pick a lotus flower or lotus pod.

Closed his eyes and fantasized about a quarter of an hour, Zeng Rong then put down the pen, completed the painting in one go, the endless lotus pond under the night sky, the lotus leaves in the pavilion and the lotus flowers blooming in twos and threes, a small canopy boat, there were several drunken girls sitting on the bow of the boat, there were long-sleeved retreats, the crisp arms were obliquely to pick lotus, there were also those who looked up at the starry sky, wanted to go to the moon for nine days, and jumped up, tried to be as high as the gulls and herons, the lotus leaves on both sides of the boat were crooked and crooked, and the green waves were blurred one after another.

"Sister Ah Rong, your painting is too good, this, this is exactly the picture I have in mind, but I just can't say it." Lu He was excited, looking at this painting with bright eyes, at this moment she was both envious and admired by Zeng Rong.

Originally, there were two people watching Zeng Rong painting, and when Green Lotus shouted, a few more people came around, and even Amei put down the embroidered bandage in her hand and crossed four or five boxes.

"What are these girls doing, why are they staggering?" Someone didn't get it.

"Sister Ah Rong, tell us about the poem and the painting." A good scholar asked.

"But this picture is a lump of pieces, can it be embroidered?" Some people questioned.

"Why can't I embroider it, look at this I embroidered." Ah Mei couldn't hear others questioning Zeng Rong's ability and refuted.

"What are you embroidering?" The other party asked.

Without waiting for Amei to answer, someone stepped over from Amei's bed and directly picked up Amei's embroidered bandage and looked at it.

"Amei, you're embroidering three sheep, right?" Someone understood and asked.

"Show me." Green Lotus hurriedly leaned over and snatched the embroidered bandage from someone else's hand.

"Ame, you use the same brocade." The first person to take the embroidered bandage asked with hindsight.

As soon as he said this, several people suddenly looked at Amei, their eyes were questioning, and they were puzzled, because the brocade used on it can only be used by the masters of the inner palace, and it is still the owner of the high grade, so if Amei's purse is used for personal use or secretly sold out, it will cause trouble, and it is still a big disaster.

Ah Mei wanted to snatch her embroidered bandage at this time, but it was too late, she wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"Okay, don't be surprised, Sister Amei took a job for someone else, and what people specified to use, don't worry about it." Zeng Rong helped her to relieve the siege.

When everyone heard this, they didn't ask any further, because everyone knew that Amei and Father-in-law Liu had an unusual relationship, and they were also close to the two aunts, and they didn't ask her to do it.

So, everyone quickly let go of this matter, and surrounded Zeng Rong to let her explain the words and paintings, but the green lotus, looking at the embroidery shed at hand, frowned slightly.
