Chapter Seventy-Three: Making Up for Mistakes with Paintings
Lu Jiayue couldn't help but wonder.
Credit....? Did he also think that he was too wrong?
Looking at his smiling appearance, he was almost like two people when he was in the Yang Mansion that night.
What's going on?
Lu Jiayue was puzzled, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her eyes, which were as clear as silver pills in water, were also a little puzzled, but her pink lips were gently pursed, and she was happy and disgusted.
Ding Can saw it in his eyes and couldn't help but smile.
The little girl hasn't really deflated yet.
It seems that he really talked too much that night, and because he drank some wine, his heart was hot, so he couldn't think about it.
Fortunately, after going back, he grabbed Brother Rui and asked the truth, and sure enough, he had a favorite girl.
This little girl didn't lie, but Brother Rui'er's stuffy temperament would never easily confide in others, but how did she know?
But since she and Brother Rui have no intention of each other, the marriage that is being discussed is about to disappear.
The little girl also has the right to choose another marriage.
Ding Can's heart was relieved when he thought about this, and he felt quite light.
When he bowed to Lu Jiayue, he said with a smile: "That night, I drank too much wine, I was confused, and I said something that I didn't know the severity of, and I still looked at the niece of the Lu family, Haihan, don't take it to heart." ”
He was so polite, which made Lu Jiayue a little uncomfortable.
He is an elder and has a noble status, how can she afford his gift?
The whole person unconsciously took two steps back and said, "Uncle Guo doesn't have to be like this--- you have also helped me, I still owe you a favor, forget about this matter..."
"Since I have already said that the merit is not worth it, I want to make up for this mistake properly," Ding Can nodded to Lu Jiayue, signaled her to wait a while, turned around and took a scroll from the table in the study, and held it in front of Lu Jiayue.
"A small gift to make up for my loss of words, you will definitely accept it."
The scroll was a foot wide, and it was made of small-leaved rosewood wooden shafts, tied with azure ribbons, and it was not easy to see how long it was.
It looked like calligraphy and painting, but Lu Jiayue had never been very interested in calligraphy and painting, so she took it and handed it to Xin Zhu behind her, and thanked Ding Can.
"Why don't you open it and take a look?" Ding Can's gaze fell on the scroll, a little disappointed.
Lu Jiayue smiled faintly and said, "I'll take it first, and then go back and calm down, and then carefully observe and appreciate it." ”
Ding Can's jaw was headed, and he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction on his face.
*
Lu Jiayue went back to Shuyingxuan, and as soon as she entered, she saw Qu Songzheng and Ding Yu sitting under the plantain playing double land.
stepped forward and pulled Qu Song aside without saying anything, and said in a low voice, "How did my brother trick me?" Obviously not in the study, but someone called me to go, so that I and Uncle Guo were there, so I was not embarrassed. ”
Qu Song smiled: "It was he who didn't let me stay in the study, saying that he wanted to apologize to you, and he couldn't wipe it off his face when I was there." ”
The dignified uncle of the country has a time when he can't wipe it off his face, which is really rare.
Lu Jiayue couldn't help but imagine what it would be like when Ding Can was embarrassed.
Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but laugh.
"That's fine, I've made it clear to him, the dust has settled, and no one will mention it again in the future."
Qu Song nodded and said with a smile: "That's fine." Seeing Xin Zhu holding a scroll in his hand, he reached out and took it, "He gave it to you?" ”
Lu Jiayue said: "Yes, I haven't opened it yet." ”
Qu Song untied the ribbon on the scroll and unfolded it, which turned out to be a picture of a begonia sleeping in spring.
It looks like the ink is still fresh, and a few begonia branches and leaves are fine and green, and the clusters are blooming. Because the painting is lifelike, looking at the begonia, it is like being able to smell the fragrance of flowers.
Looking at the vermilion seal on it, it turned out to be the three words "Zhang Puyun".
Although Lu Jiayue doesn't like calligraphy and painting, she has also heard of Zhang Puyun and his person.
It is more than ten years ago, it has been famous in the city of Kyoto a painter, the market is rumored that he is exquisite, there is a magic brush, the style of painting is soft and magnificent, but also unique, and has always been the dragon to see the head but not the end, no one in the market has seen his true face of Lushan. Only occasionally, there will be paintings, which are circulated in the community, attracting those who love calligraphy and painting to rush to collect them.
"Uncle Guo also collects calligraphy and paintings?" Lu Jiayue is a little strange, Ding Can is a martial arts person, and he also has such elegance?
Qu Song didn't answer, and looked up and down the picture of the begonia spring sleep several times, Fang smiled: "For him, how much does this kind of painting want, since he gave it to you, you accept it, but it is also a hard-to-find thing outside." ”
Qu Song praised it, Lu Jiayue was also happy, and said with a smile: "The courtyard where I live is Chuntang Residence, and this painting is suitable to hang in my house." ”
The two were talking, and as soon as Lu Jiayue looked up, she saw Qu Zhang leading Liang Hao in from outside.
So he smiled and called "Third Brother," and greeted Liang Hao again.
Liang Hao returned the salute with a smile, and met Qu Song again.
Qu Zhang, who was on the side, seemed to be in a trance, and was stunned for a moment before he smiled at Lu Jiayue and went to the house with Liang Hao.
After the Shangyuan Festival, Qingfeng Academy opened, Qu Zhang went to the academy to study every day, leaving early and returning late, and Lu Jiayue never met him again.
When I saw him in a hurry today, I felt that he seemed to be thinner than before, and he had a sense of vicissitudes of life.
What's going on?
"Brother, is the third brother studying too hard?" Lu Jiayue was a little worried, "Brother should remind him that although it is important to study, it must not hurt his body." ”
Qu Song glanced into the room, stretched out his hand and tapped Lu Jiayue's forehead, and said with a smile: "It's important to take care of yourself, and you should not ask about his affairs." ”
Before he could finish speaking, another man walked into the courtyard.
It's not someone else, it's Qu Rong.
Lu Jiayue immediately grabbed Qu Song's sleeve and hid behind Qu Song.
"Big brother." Qu Rong stood more than ten steps away, lowered his eyes, and nodded at Qu Song.
"Coming back?" Qu Song's tone was light, "Go in, grandmother and all the elders are inside, you also go and salute." ”
"Yes." Qu Rong answered, turned around and went to the house.
There was no momentary stop, and some of them were in a hurry.
"Don't be afraid." Qu Song turned his head to look at Lu Jiayue behind him, "There are so many people, don't be afraid." ”
Lu Jiayue looked at Qu Rong's back coldly.
He turned a blind eye to himself like this, did he really regret and have an epiphany?
*
At this time, there was still more than half an hour before the evening banquet, and when there was nothing to do, Lu Jiayue and Ding Yu played a few more rounds of Shuanglu.
It was impossible to win, but with Qu Song on the side to help, he won a game against Ding Yu.
Lu Jiayue was fighting up, and Ding Yu suddenly smiled: "Okay, the real master is here." ”
Turning his head to look, Ding Can was walking towards this side.
Ding Yu stood up and said with a smile: "Second uncle, come and help me, Cousin Song only helps Sister Lu, and I can't resist it alone." ”
The maid moved a chair over and placed it next to Ding Yu, Ding Can sat down, and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, I'll help you." ”
So he restarted the game, with Ding Can's help, but Ding Yu still lost.
After losing a few games in a row, Ding Yu quit.
"Second uncle, isn't your luck so stinky on weekdays? What's going on today? ”
Ding Can just laughed.
Ding Yu drove him, "You go and exchange with Cousin Song, let Cousin Song help me, and you go to help Sister Lu." ”
Lu Jiayue was unhappy in her heart.
I just heard Ding Yu say that Ding Can is a master of playing Shuanglu, and she thought that she would definitely lose miserably next, but who knew that when Ding Can came, she helped Ding Yu with everything, but let herself win a few games in a row.
She is happy to win, how can she let Ding Can help her?
However, there was no way to push it back, and Qu Song had obediently switched positions with Ding Can.
Lu Jiayue was a little sullen.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Ding Can came over, within a few rounds, he would kill all sides and defeat Ding Yu and Qu Song.
After winning a few games in a row, Lu Jiayue was happy and couldn't stop laughing.
Ding Yu didn't do it, threw the chess pieces on the chessboard, and glared at Ding Can.
"Second uncle, I can see it, you are determined to let me lose to Sister Lu!"
