Chapter 754: Taking the Initiative (20)
The ground that had just rained was full of water, and the picture scroll fell to the ground and immediately spilled on, Guo Ziheng hurriedly picked it up, but he had a picture scroll in his hand, and as soon as he bent over, there were a few more scrolls to slide down, Yang Ling was holding An An in his hand, and he had no intention of helping, Qu Xiaobai leaned down and helped pick up two volumes, seeing that the remaining water was too serious, and said: "Forget it, it's already like this, you can't ask for it, just work hard for Guo Painter to paint a few more paintings, okay?" ”
Guo Ziheng stood up and said busily: "Okay, no problem, no problem, dare to ask the princess, are these things in a hurry?" ”
Qu Xiaobai nodded: "Yes, I'm in a hurry, I'm going to work hard for Painter Guo tonight." ”
"It's not hard, it's not hard, it's an honor to be able to serve Prince Ling and Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Guo Ziheng had no choice but to turn around and go to the study in the front yard.
Qu Xiaobai saw him walk away, and looked up at Yang Ling, "Have dinner?" I have people prepare. It seems that Yang Ling has something to do at night, she can't help much, so it's okay for him to fill his stomach.
Yang Ling smiled: "Okay." ”
The cook had already prepared dinner, Qu Xiaobai personally went to instruct the cook, and when she came back, she also brought a bowl of soup, it was raining outside, and the ground was wet, so she could only cook in the house, but fortunately, the house was also cool tonight.
Yang Ling hugged An An into the house, took a spoon and fed An An with soup, the taste of the soup was probably better than the taste of milk, An An drank with a smile and a small hand.
"I'll feed you, you eat."
Qu Xiaobai stretched out his hand to pick up An An, but Yang Ling didn't give it to her, "You eat yours, I'll feed you." ”
The interaction between father and son was too loving, Qu Xiaobai couldn't bear to break this scene, so he didn't insist on hugging An An anymore.
Yang Ling sometimes fed An An a mouthful of soup, and sometimes put a chopstick dish into Qu Xiaobai's bowl, "I haven't eaten much yet, are you feeding yourself as a sparrow?" ”
Qu Xiaobai lowered his head and pulled the vegetables in the bowl, not wanting to speak. Anyway, you can't resist, accept incompetence, what can you do? Eat as much as you can.
In fact, when she passed through the primeval forest, she was so strong that she couldn't even eat two dry cakes, she didn't even have water, but in front of him, she was so squeamish, even her body was very cooperative, and she would feel uncomfortable if she ate one more bite, and every time he made him pity and angry, he tossed in every way to let her eat two more mouthfuls of food.
Man is truly an amazing creature.
An An drank a small half cup of soup, and was hugged by Luoluo, Yang Ling freed his hand and began to eat. I don't know when, his bowl was stacked with a mountain of vegetables. Tsk, the little girl is fast enough.
Yang Ling was silent and ate all the food in the bowl. Just like when he used to play a little fool in front of her, no matter how unpalatable she cooked, he ate it without any leftovers.
Why? Because he remembered too much the grievances she suffered during the time of the injury, he cooked for him with satisfaction, thinking that he could remember the taste of the food she cooked, but he didn't eat a bite or say anything, and was very disgusted, saying that he would never eat her dishes again.
She didn't say anything at the time, but she hadn't cooked for him since. In her own words, it is to do what she is good at, and don't be blind if she is not good at it.
That's a good thing to say, but he always can't get over that hurdle in his heart, and he always feels that he has wasted her mind and hurt her self-esteem. Later, after he completely regained his memory, he would accept whatever she gave him, no matter what it was.
Tonight's meal was the same, he ate it all, and it was clean.
Qu Xiaobai added another bowl of soup to him with great satisfaction, "I'm going to feed my son, you can eat more, it's too thin, when it's on me, it's weird and panicked." ”
Yang Ling: "......" No, daughter-in-law, it's not good to do this.
Qu Xiaobai didn't realize what he said at all, and continued to force Yang Ling to drink the soup, Yang Ling lowered his head, drank the soup in the bowl in a muffled voice, and said, "It's almost now, right?" ”
"Hmm. If you have something to do, you can leave, and I'll take care of An An. ”
As soon as Qu Xiaobai's voice fell, he saw Ah Er enter the house, "Lord, Your Royal Highness the Princess, that Mrs. Guo is here, and she also hugged the child, saying that she is here to invite Guo Ziheng home for dinner." ”
Yang Ling asked, "Then Guo Ziheng has had dinner?" ”
"Not yet."
"Then prepare a meal and let their family of three eat it in the house."
Ah Er got the order, and went to the kitchen to order, Qu Xiaobai also got up to find An An, Yang Ling also got up, saw that Ah Wu was outside the door, took him with him, and went out.
Qu Xiaobai didn't know what he was going to do, and he didn't ask, but when Guo Ning's finished dinner, he asked someone to invite her over, let An An and Pingping play together, listen to Mama study, and she changed her clothes and went to the study in the front yard.
There are two study rooms in this house, one is in the courtyard where she and Yang Ling live, which is where Yang Ling usually works, and the study in the front yard is where books are stacked.
Guo Ziheng had already finished dinner and was busy painting.
The task left by Yang Ling is to draw some propaganda pictures, there is nothing difficult, the only requirement is that the paintings should be good-looking and eye-catching.
In fact, at first, I wanted him to draw something important, but after seeing his essence clearly, those things naturally could not be handed over to him to complete.
Qu Xiaobai pushed the door in, Guo Ziheng got up in a panic and leaned over, "Princess Changle." ”
Qu Xiaobai waved his hand, "No need to be polite, this hall will come to see your progress, and by the way, see if there is anything that can help you." ”
"There are still six paintings, Your Royal Highness the princess, rest assured, the small one will definitely be able to finish painting tonight."
Qu Xiaobai walked to the table, opened the drawer of the table, and took out a box of small brushes and a box of watercolor paints, "You draw yours, I'll take a look at the finished product." ”
Guo Ziheng was a little restrained, put the finished painting in front of her, returned to his position, and continued to paint the unfinished painting.
Qu Xiaobai opened a painting he had painted, and looked at it through the bright candle flame, the colors and lines were good, and now when I look at it, compared with what he painted yesterday, the brushwork is different.
Qu Xiaobai sneered in his heart, this is aware of it, so he is on guard? But now it's too late to take precautions.
"Painter Guo's paintings are really wonderful, wonderful to the good." Qu Xiaobai praised with a smile, picked the smallest brush, dipped it in red paint, and added some details to the painting.
Guo Ziheng peeked at it and said, "The princess is overrated, and her qualifications are limited, but she is just trying her best." I wonder what the princess is drawing? ”
"It's nothing, it's just a little bit of a little detail. These paintings are all taken by Ling Huangzi to the shop for propaganda purposes, and I try to make them eye-catching so that people can notice them at a glance. ”
Guo Ziheng looked at his paintings that were made indecently by Qu Xiaobai's brushstrokes, and dared not speak angrily, so he could only smile awkwardly and said: "The colors are bright, and you can indeed notice it at a glance." ”
Qu Xiaobai said with a smile while making up for it: "It's really overkill to let Painter Guo paint such a propaganda poster, Painter Guo won't mind, right?" ”
Guo Ziheng smiled, "How come?" Emperor Ling is willing to use me again, and I am already grateful. As for painting, it's just a means of making a living. ”
"That's right. I used to know a young man who was also very good at painting, how to say, he painted very well, on a par with Guo's painter, and he didn't mind painting propaganda posters for me, but he never used painting as a means of making a living, he just ...... Anyway, I love to draw very much, probably because I love it. ”
The person she was talking about was the crown prince Lu Feiyi. Thinking of the paintings he painted when he was still called Lin Pei, Qu Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh, Guo Ziheng's paintings are not as good as his, Guo Ziheng's paintings have a worldly atmosphere that is difficult to hide, in other words, it is called "desire", and Lu Feiyi's paintings are a bit like fireworks in the world, more like works of art.
suddenly remembered Lu Feiyi, which made Qu Xiaobai a little stunned for a while. Since entering Beijing, she has met Lu Feiyi three times, once at the city gate, once at the reception banquet in the palace, and once at the small banquet held by Concubine Rong.
When they met three times, he was in a state of ignoring things outside the window, the current Kyoto, the current coolness, where could he stay out of the matter? This attitude of inaction made her completely disappointed in him.
Guo Ziheng said: "The little one admires His Royal Highness's friend, and the little one is forced by life, how can he not eat the fireworks of the world?" ”
Qu Xiaobai pulled back his thoughts and corrected him: "He is not a friend of the main hall, he is just a young man who the main hall knows. She can't question other people's attitudes toward life, but she can choose what kind of people she is friends with.
Lu Feiyi is not a bad person, but he is in his position, but he can't take his own responsibility, the people of the world are in dire straits, he has not done anything useful for them, in a sense, there is no qualitative difference between him and his emperor father.
Qu Xiaobai's heart floated a little irritable, she put down her pen and looked at her masterpiece a few times - a very beautiful painting of a lady, she added a few vulgar red flowers and a few twigs to her clothes, she explained to Guo Ziheng: "These twig patterns and flowers should be used to make templates and print on clothes, as for the pictures of ladies he painted, they will be worn with clothes printed with this color in the future." ”
Guo Ziheng didn't dare to say anything, and flattered her: "The flowers are bright, and it should be very dazzling to make clothes." ”
Qu Xiaobaixin said, this flattering kung fu, tsk, ashamed of himself. In fact, she just deliberately added a few strokes to confuse Lu Wu and Wei Gao's audio-visual.
Lu Wei and the others did enter Beijing, and set their eyes on her and Yang Ling, and when they first entered Beijing, they intervened in people for the sake of their children. But they haven't shown up until now, according to Yang Ling's guess, before yesterday, they shouldn't be sure that she is Qu Xiaobai, but they just guessed that they are not far from ten, so they are not in a hurry to startle the snake. As for whether they know today, it's hard to say. If the Guo couple went back and said An An's appearance, then they would definitely know it by now.
