Chapter 63: The Legendary Stone Bridge
In the evening, Xue Wu and Pei Lin returned with a full load.
In addition to antiques, Xue Wu also bought several pieces of cloth and some embroidery threads back, which Xue's mother asked her to bring and needed for embroidery.
The cloth wanted Xue's mother to make a new dress for the family to wear.
She noticed before that Xue Yao's pants were showing his feet and neck, he was already at the age of growing his body, and since Xue Yao came, the food level of the family has suddenly risen a few steps, and he eats more every day.
Coupled with the effect of the spiritual spring water, he didn't just swish upward, compared with a few months ago, it was very long.
In fact, not only Xue Yao, but Xue Jun's body also saw that it was much better, her cheeks were no longer pale and bloodless, and she had become much healthier and more pink.
Most of the sickness on her body has dissipated, and if she doesn't say anything when she goes out, who can tell that she is actually sick?
Even Xue Yu herself has grown a few centimeters, and her original clothes are a little small, especially the close-fitting clothes, which are a little unbearable.
In fact, there are a lot of fabrics in her space, all of which are stored in the treasury of the Qian Mansion, but those cloths are relatively expensive silk, not to mention the countrymen, even some rich and noble families may not be able to afford it, so she can't take it out.
The few antiques that were bought back, Xue Wu also arranged them one by one, and the bronze horse was taken back to the room by Xue Yao to be used as decorations, which happened to match the puppet villain before.
The bronze money was washed and dried, and the red rope was found to be put on, and tied to Xue Jun's wrist, Xue Jun liked it very much.
The rattle is for Pei Lin to play.
Pei Lin is not very happy, he is four years old, what kind of rattle is he playing? Still, he took the rattle into the room and stuffed it under his pillow.
As for the painting, Xue Wu gave it to Xue's mother, "Mother, I always feel that something is wrong with this painting, there are traces of aging, you can take a look." ”
Xue Mu spread out the painting on the table and looked at it carefully, and Xue Jun also looked at it.
In the end, Pei Lin found out that something was wrong, "This painting is pasted, and the real painting is below." ”
After he said this, Xue Mu found out that it was true, took the needle and thread, and peeled off the layer of fake and shoddy drawing paper on it.
"Stone Bridge!" At the moment when the painting below revealed the true face of Lushan, Xue Mu let out an exclamation.
Xue Wu: "Stone Bridge"? ”
Several others were puzzled.
Xue Mu calmed down and explained the origin of this "Stone Bridge Map" to several people.
Meng Jiao once wrote a poem "Rotten Keshan Stone Bridge", "The woodcutter returns home, the axe is rotten from the wind, only the stone bridge is there, and it is still Ling Danhong." ”
The stone bridge of "Stone Bridge Map" is the stone bridge of Langke Mountain.
The woodcutter of Rotten Keshan watched the immortals play chess, and the result was that a game of chess ended, and the axes for chopping wood were rotten, this legend is known to many people, and the stone bridge is located on the peak of Rotten Keshan.
Said to be a stone bridge, in fact, is a natural formation of a long boulder, across the mountain peaks between the clouds, the scenery here is excellent, there is a fairyland, after the Tang Dynasty painter Zhang Xuan toured, go back according to the stone bridge fairyland, made the "stone bridge map".
This painting was dedicated to the lord by Zhang Xuan, who in turn gave it to Tang Xuanzong, who in turn gave it to his favorite minister Gao Lishi. After that, the Tang Dynasty experienced more than 40 years of ups and downs, and "Stone Bridge" has long been submerged in the clouds and smoke of history.
Who would have thought that this famous painting in history would be rediscovered in this way after hundreds of years.
After listening to Xue's mother's story, Xue Wu was a little embarrassed, but she also noticed another point.
Xue Mu shouldn't be from an ordinary family, right? How can the daughters of ordinary families know these historical secrets?
In the memory of the original owner, I heard Mrs. Xue scold Xue's mother for being a vixen, shameless, and eloping with Xue's father without a matchmaker, and Xue's mother would always be sentimental when she heard it, but she didn't say anything.
The fox spirit must be nonsense, it can't be that there is some irreconcilable conflict between Xue's mother and the family, so he and Xue's father came together.
However, since Mother Xue has never told the children, it means that she has completely cut off from her past life, and she doesn't need to ask again.
Anyway, it's enough to live the moment.
Xue Yao looked at the painting on the table, and couldn't see what was good, but he thought it was very good-looking, "Mother, this must be very valuable, right?" ”
Antiques from hundreds of years ago.
Xue Mu gave him a funny look, "How can this kind of heirloom painting be measured by money?" It should be priceless. ”
Priceless treasure, several people are a little staggered.
However, Pei Lin was very calm, after all, most of the treasures in the world were returned to the royal family, and I don't know how many rare treasures there are in the royal treasury, just a painting, it's nothing.
Such a precious painting, Xue Mu really doesn't know what to do with it, put it in the box, I'm afraid that it will be accidentally eaten by insects, or rats, so I don't put it away, and I'm afraid that it will be stolen accidentally.
Xue Wu: "Mother, just hang it up openly, anyway, no one would have thought that a painting hung out by our big horn will be the legendary "Stone Bridge Map". ”
Xue Mu thought about it, but it was true, who would have thought that there was a masterpiece hanging in a farmer's house? Even if the thief comes to patronize it, he will not stretch out his hand when he sees it.
Since then, there has been an extra "Stone Bridge Map" in Xuejiatang's house.
At first, Xue Wan and the others were cautious about the painting, but after a long time, they got used to it and didn't pay attention to it deliberately.
Of course, that's another story.
That night, Xue Wu and Pei Lin took Da Hei to the vegetable garden a few miles away to keep vigil as usual.
The peppers in the garden are growing quite well, and they are verdant and upright, and they have already bloomed, and it will not be long before they can bear peppers.
A good harvest is just around the corner.
The thorny fences on the periphery of the garden have also grown into a momentum, each one is the thickness of a little thumb, tangled with each other, and the dense sharp thorns on it are terrifying to look at.
Xue Wu has experimented, and these spiritual springs irrigated by diluted spiritual springs are amazingly strong, even if they are slashed and axed, it takes a while to cut them.
And they also suck blood!
As soon as a living creature approaches, they wrap themselves around and entangle their prey to suck blood.
The more dangerous these thorns are, the safer the vegetable garden will be.
But afraid that these thorns would attack indiscriminately, Xue Wu did some experiments and found that as long as she wore a thorn vine on her body, then these thorns would not attack her.
In the future, whoever dares to steal vegetables will be waiting for him in a blood-sucking thorn forest.
Xue Wu is looking forward to this.
When Pei Xiao fell asleep, Xue Wu quietly came out of the grass shed and dived towards Shangyang Lake not far away.
Today, when I heard the old man say that the bronze horse was fished up from Shangyang Lake, she got up to go to the bottom of the lake to explore.
Her demand for spiritual springs is increasing day by day, and although she has found a few objects containing purple qi today, which has temporarily filled the Five Elements Beads, this is far from enough.
She needed to find more things that contained purple qi and store more spiritual springs.
