Chapter 10: Midnight Call No. 10

The girl is indeed amazing, and her first impression of Xiao Mo is like the kind of woman who came out of the painting, looking like she doesn't know the fireworks in the world.

With fair skin and slightly curly long hair, the whole person has a melancholy temperament.

Almost at first glance, Xiao Mo was thinking.

Shouldn't such a girl be natural and harmless?

The courtyard door was half open, and the girl sat in the courtyard with an easel propped up in front of her.

There was a big black cat lying at his feet, and when the big black cat saw a living person standing at the gate of the courtyard, he immediately turned over and ran.

The girl was concentrating on painting with a paintbrush, and when she saw Xiao Mo standing at the gate of the courtyard, her expression immediately became nervous.

"Who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Mr. Zhang."

"Zhang Bai?"

"Yes."

The girl's expression instantly darkened, and there was a crystal thing in her eyes: "He, he's gone." ”

"I know."

"Then you ......"

"I wasn't in Chunyang some time ago, and I didn't know about Mr. Zhang when I came back, so I thought I'd take a look. Are you Miss White? ”

"Yes, Bai Yufei, do you know me?"

"I've heard about your relationship with Teacher Zhang. I, I don't know if I should call you Mrs. or Miss Bai? ”

In fact, Xiao Mo still has a slight impression of this painter named Zhang Bai, and the two or three-year-old child still has some memories, compared to Xiao Ze, who is almost blank in his memory. There is still a fragment in the memory of that time, that is, this painter named Zhang Bai.

Zhang Bai did teach him to draw, and there is a fragment in his impression that there is a man teaching him to draw the picture of the white rabbit, which is a realistic technique, not a cartoon image.

On that day, the fragment memory began like this, and the little tail of the painting was just finished.

When she was about to apply the color, her mother ran in very nervously, took Xiao Mo's hand and ran out.

As for why he ran, Xiao Mo still doesn't quite understand, and after careful consideration, it should be that the person who is going to collect the debt is here, and his mother takes him to hide.

Bai Yufei's fair face turned slightly red.

"Don't ......," she added, perhaps thinking it was a misnomer. Call me Yufei or Xiaofei. Don't know what to call you? ”

"My surname is Xiao, Xiao Mo."

"Xiao Mo? You and Xiao Ze of Yunxiao Group? ”

"Well, it's a distant relative!"

"Oh, no wonder, Uncle told me that Xiao of Yunxiao Group is always his fat boy and iron buddy. Uncle has no family, and his future is thanks to Mr. Xiao, otherwise, I don't know what to do? ”

After saying this, Bai Yufei's big eyes were full of water.

"Yes, you're a little younger, and you're really at a loss when you encounter this kind of thing."

"I'm ashamed to say that my mother passed away a few months ago, and now my uncle is ...... I always felt like I was an ominous person. ”

There was a brief silence in the atmosphere, Xiao Mo looked at the paintings on the easel, and it could be roughly seen that it was a cluster of wild chrysanthemums outside the courtyard gate, although it was a little monotonous, but it was not abrupt.

"It's a good painting, and it adds some soul to these chrysanthemums."

"It's just a hobby, and I can't do it."

She turned around and poured a cup of boiled water from the table next to her and handed it to Xiao Mo, and said apologetically: "Uncle likes to make tea, but I can't, only boiled water." ”

Xiao Mo took the water, didn't drink it, and put it back on the table.

"Can I go to the teacher's studio and have a look?"

"Of course."

The appearance of a plain two-storey building, but the inside is low-key luxury, the hall on the first floor is cleaned up in an ancient style, there is a large carved solid wood tea table, it can be seen, the value is very high.

There is a small box on the edge of the tea table with some chocolate candy inside.

In the center of the hall, a landscape painting called "The Girl on the Bamboo Row", of course, is the girl on the bamboo row, Zhang Bai's famous work, it is said that it was painted 20 years ago, but unfortunately, the girl on the bamboo row is just a slender back, and the feeling of wanting to see the true face of the girl through the other side of the painting is very strong.

Perhaps that's the success of this painting, the more mysterious things are, the more they satisfy people's curiosity.

The second floor is relatively simple, with two bedrooms and a studio.

It's all neatly packed.

Looking down from the balcony on the second floor, Bai Yufei was polishing the paintings on the easel with a paintbrush.

The door of the master bedroom is ajar, the light is good, the cleaning is simple, and the wall at the head of the bed is not a picture frame, but a painting, on which the woman in a white wedding dress is painted, needless to say, it is Bai Yufei, and the man in the suit is Zhang Bai.

Judging from the painting alone, the age gap between the two people does not seem as obvious as expected.

This painting is supposed to be by Zhang Bai, and it is understandable that he painted himself as younger.

There was also a candy box on the bedside table that was exactly the same as the one on the tea table in the hall downstairs, and the box also contained some chocolate candy.

Zhang Bai has had diabetes for many years, and it is certain to supplement sugar when diabetics have low blood sugar, so it is normal to have sugar downstairs and upstairs.

The furnishings in the second room are more feminine, and it seems that Bai Yufei should live in the second bedroom.

There are several paintings hanging on the wall of the studio, and for Zhang Bai, who is good at landscape painting, he only sees one pure landscape painting in the studio. The main scene in several other paintings is a girl, and the scenery is only a foil.

It is not difficult to see that the girl is actually Bai Yufei downstairs, and it can be seen that Zhang Bai really has a heart for Bai Yufei.

As for Bai Yufei, she hasn't seen any flaws yet.

There is a row of bookshelves at the entrance of the studio, and it is not easy for a painter to have so many books.

There are several editions of the four famous books on the top grid, and there are some history books on the lower floor, most of which are some modern historical figures.

The third layer is some messy books, such as "Tang Poetry and Song Ci", "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Parchment Scroll" and the like.

At the bottom of the floor are the tools for drawing, and everything looks like it's going to be as usual.

The windows of the studio are large enough to have an extremely wide view, and when you look up, you can see the vegetable patch in front of the courtyard.

There is an easel in front of the window, and a preliminary painting on the easel can basically be seen that the painting is the scenery in front of the courtyard.

The mountain in the distance, the vegetable garden nearby, the back of a woman wearing a straw hat in the middle of the vegetable garden, and the easel in front of the woman, the picture is almost realistic.

The woman is painting the mountains in the distance, and the trees in the near distance are a little blurry, but you can see them. The framing of the two paintings is roughly the same, but the difference is only the distance and near angles.

This is a proper painting within a painting.

Zhang Bai probably wanted to express the meaning that your eyes are the scenery, and my eyes are you.

And this halfway painting must be Zhang Bai's last posthumous work, and its value is probably incalculable.

Maybe he was too focused, when Bai Yufei appeared at the door of the studio, Xiao Mo didn't notice it.

"Xiao Mo, I guess you came all the way to find me!"
