Chapter 099: Painting by the Window
"I'll draw a picture to illustrate." Chen Ying rolled up her sleeves with one hand and picked up the ink ingot with the other hand to grind the ink, and her movements were very stable.
Pei Shu looked at her for a while, and then began to touch his chin again.
He knew that her archery skills were good, but at this time, looking at her grinding ink, he felt that she didn't seem to be a person who knew martial arts, but she was really the kind of clean and calm in her gestures, and she had the demeanor of a lady, so that people couldn't imagine her bow.
The thought swelled in his head, and he almost decided to do so.
But at this moment, Chen Ying picked up the pen.
That is, from the moment she grabbed the pen, Pei Shu's thought immediately disappeared.
With heavy shoulders, tight waist, and hanging wrists, Chen Ying adjusted her breathing and drew a picture on the paper according to the posture of practicing big characters in a normal manner.
The force contained in this simple action made Pei Shu's face show a little surprise. And a moment later, when he saw what she was drawing, his attention immediately turned to the paper.
"This is ......" he leaned forward, staring at the ink lines on the paper that were gradually taking shape, his face suddenly becoming strange, "this is ...... Human...... Belly? ”
His voice was rare and uneasy, and there was even a little unease on his face.
Even though he has walked in the rivers and lakes, he has seen many chivalrous women in the rivers and lakes, and even drank with them. However, seeing a girl's family draw such a grotesque pattern, he still felt very uncomfortable.
"The little marquis is right." Chen Ying confirmed his guess, stopped the pen, turned the paper to Pei Shu's front, reversed the pen, pointed at the paper with the pen, and said: "This is a man, this is a woman, the pelvis of the two are different...... and he explained the method of identifying the pelvis.
The strangeness on Pei Shu's face had escalated into embarrassment at this time, and he didn't even know where to look for a while.
Even though Chen Ying's painting is extremely simple, it is too ......
"It was because of the difference in the shape of the pelvis between men and women that I could tell at a glance that the bones were women." Chen Ying's voice sounded at the right time, calm and indifferent, without emotion: "I like to read miscellaneous books, I have seen such a picture in a certain book, and I wrote it down, last time was my first verification, and I was lucky." From this, I suspect that this is the case. ”
Pei Shu turned his face to look out the window, and after a while, Fang plucked up some courage and turned his head to look at Chen Ying.
At this glance, the trace of embarrassment in his heart suddenly disappeared.
Chen Ying didn't look at him at all, and was collecting paper and pen with a small half of his sleeve at the moment.
First pour the water in the melon belly water into a small urn of Qingdong Magnetic, and then wash the pen in the four volumes of lotus leaf washing, the water is still poured into the small urn, and finally the ink ingot and inkstone are put into the inkstone, and the pen is placed in the pen holder.
Pei Shu watched her movements for a moment, and for some reason, the little bit of discomfort in his heart disappeared a lot inexplicably, and he even felt that he was making a little fuss.
None of the girls took it seriously, but he behaved so badly, it seemed a little embarrassing.
Coughing, Pei Shu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and pushed the window open a little more.
The midsummer wind blows through the window lattice, and there are bursts of cicadas among the willows.
The last trace of embarrassment that remained in Pei Shu's heart was all gone in this leisurely cicada chirping.
"If the little marquis wants to keep the drawings, it's better to keep them." Chen Ying turned around and said, the smile on his face was normal: "If the little marquis is not too troublesome, you can ask a few officials to go to Yizhuang and find some bones to verify and verify." If this method is really useful, the bones can be examined according to this method when they are found in the future, and there is no need to worry about whether it is male or female. ”
Pei Shu didn't speak, only fixed his eyes on the paper, and immediately bowed his head: "I wrote down this drawing, but there is no need to keep it." ”
As he spoke, he stood up and stepped aside, apparently intending to leave.
Seeing that he avoided suspicion to such an extent, Chen Ying also knew in his heart that he was doing this out of good intentions, so he became more and more sure of his inferences about his character.
Although this person is full of gangsterism, he is not evil, and he has his own set of rules for speaking and doing things.
This is a bottom-line, principled collaborator, which Chen Ying welcomes.
After folding the picture three or two times, she smiled and said, "Since this is the case, the little marquis is easy to go." ”
Pei Shu bowed slightly: "The three girls stay." Then he strode out.
Luo's mother and the others were all waiting outside, and they didn't know what was happening inside, because when they saw Pei Shu coming out, they knew that Chen Ying's "business" was over, so they all hugged in.
This private room is not too big, and when there are many people, it seems a little crowded, and everyone is touching each other, and it is inevitable that there will be some inconveniences. When he was really helping Chen Ying to wear the fence, he suddenly heard a very slight "snort".
She was shocked, and hurriedly followed the sound to look, but saw Chen Ying's skirt hanging on the legs, but it turned out to be hooked by a small wooden thorn.
"Oh, girl's dress!" Xunzhen let out a low sigh, squatted down and pushed the wooden thorn away, but saw that there was a big hole on the top of the lake's green Hunan skirt.
Chen Ying also sensed that something was wrong, lowered her head and looked at it, and said indifferently: "It's okay, I'll get in the car in a while, and it's not too late to go back and change it." ”
"I'm afraid it won't work." Mother Luo frowned, pointed to the opening and said, "Girl, look, this opening is not small." ”
She didn't finish her words, but motioned for Chen Ying to take a closer look.
Chen Ying bent down and took a closer look, only then did she understand why Luo's mother said no, it turned out that the rift skirt inside was exposed at the hole.
"There are so many people on this street, the girl can't just go out." Luo's mother continued, and when she looked back, she called someone: "Come on, go down and talk to Zhao Gui, tell him to put the car on first, and then go to the south of the alley with me in a while."
There is a ready-to-wear shop on the south side of Donglou Lane, which sells well-made women's dresses, buy one and wear it temporarily, just go downstairs, Luo's mother plans to do so.
Chen Ying didn't take this to heart, but Luo's mother regarded it as a big deal, and she couldn't take it seriously.
In the end, this is the life she borrowed, and she must take responsibility, obligation, and emotions that should be taken into account, so she said: "Just listen to your mother." ”
The master and servant were talking, and their voices were not too high, but Pei Shu, who was standing outside, still heard it, so he frowned.
He also patronized the ready-to-wear shop, but it was only this once, and there was no next time, because the shopkeeper of the shop was a little broken-mouthed, and he was still a good wine, and he often had no mouth.
