Chapter Seventy-Nine: Unmasking
"Such a glazed pen wash, the trumpet only got two in total, Li Ye, you see, this color, how much elegant and clean, you see, there is also a glaze here......" The shopkeeper introduced diligently.
Li Xia pulled Li Wenshan, this kind of brushstroke, Gu Liu must like it very much, this color, she heard Gu Liu say I don't know how many times, called the rain over the sky and the clouds**......
Li Wenshan understood, "Just this one, get me a few more lake pens, it doesn't need to be too good, just order it, and my sister will use it for calligraphy." ”
The shopkeeper agreed, neatly put the pen wash into the box, and the guy next to him brought a large handful of lake pens over, and Li Wenshan picked four or five at will, "How much is it in total?" ”
"It's already going to be posted." The shopkeeper hurriedly bowed down and said with a smile.
Li Wenshan heard the shopkeeper say this, didn't say more, reached out and took the box, Li Xia took the lake pen from the guy and held it, Li Wenshan just turned around, turned back again, and asked again, "How much is it?" ”
"This wash is four hundred taels of silver, and the lake pen trumpet will be given." The shopkeeper was well-informed, and his voice was low, and he replied.
Li Wenshan took a breath lightly, and suddenly felt that the pen in his hand was heavy and very pressing.
Li Xia was also a little surprised, when she could afford to use this kind of azure gray porcelain, there was already an imperial kiln specially fired for her, before and after, she didn't know that this kind of azure gray porcelain was so expensive among the people......
The Li family brothers and sisters went in and out quickly, and the little girl took the box in Li Wenshan's hand, as well as the pen in Li Xia's hand, and led a horse to Li Wenshan, Li Wenshan took Li Xia, got on the horse and followed the crowd, and went straight to Qingfeng Building.
Dismounted in front of Qingfeng Building, Li Wenshan handed Li Xia over to Chengying to lead, quietly pulled Lu Yi, took a few steps behind, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, it's ...... It's too precious. ”
"It's Jin Shizi." Lu Yi smiled, glanced at Jin Cunyan, and lowered his voice, "Don't mind, it's not worth anything." ”
Li Wenshan was stunned, he didn't expect it to be Jin Cunyan anyway......
Chengying took Li Xia's hand and just took two steps, King Qin stopped, took two steps back, took Li Xia from Chengying's hand, led her into the Huanmen, entered the lobby, and went upstairs.
Jin Zhuoyan fell behind King Qin and Li Xia, and together with Gu Liu, who was looking left and right, he followed him upstairs.
"This is West Lake, have you ever been to West Lake?" King Qin took Li Xia by the hand, walked straight to the window facing the West Lake, pointed to the West Lake and asked.
Upstairs in Qingfeng, facing this window of West Lake...... It is better to say that it is the door, the window is open to the end, and there is a half-person-high carved wooden railing outside, although Li Xia is short, he can see clearly.
Li Xia shook her head slowly, the two lives together, this is the first time she has seen the West Lake, and she has seen such a beautiful West Lake.
"Do you like it?" Seeing her shaking his head, King Qin moved up and laughed.
Li Xia nodded again, the West Lake in front of him is indeed like what Gu Liu said: Lingxiu in the south of the Yangtze River, just looking at the West Lake is enough.
This West Lake is the same as the Jiangnan in her imagination, the ink painting, and the celadon Jiangnan that rains through the sky, but it is more agile and empty......
"You little girl, I didn't see it, your eyesight is really good. My brother told you that this West Lake is the best to see when it rains, the drizzle is beautiful, the heavy rain is also beautiful, and if it snows, it is the ultimate scenery in the world. ”
King Qin walked all the way up with interest and motioned to the little servant, "Move that low couch over, Ah Xia and I are here, do you have any nests of silk candy?" By the way, what about the box of candy I brought? Bring it too. ”
In the blink of an eye, a few little servants moved the low couch, put on the mats, set up a few high and low tables, and put a full of various snacks, tea, and a box of sugar grains that were very beautiful in color and slightly transparent.
"You try this, I loved this when I was a kid." King Qin took the box and handed it to Li Xia.
Li Xia looked at the translucent sugar grains of various shapes of lotus pods, pumpkin, eggplant and cabbage in the box, and was slightly stunned......
Li Xia took a small pumpkin, stuffed it into his mouth with his fingers, and when he bit into it, a refreshing and sweet smell of jujube juice flowed out, overflowing his mouth.
The bread here is all jujube juice......
"Is it delicious?" King Qin stared at Li Xia and asked.
Li Xia nodded, this kind of candy, she ate it for the first time, and she used to ...... She didn't know that the imperial dining room would make such a candy ......
"What is this called sugar? It's juice. Jin Cunyan paced over, stood behind Li Xia's side, knocked the box with a folding fan, and pouted in disgust.
"When you were five years old, you ate a box of such candy in one go, it wasn't enough, crying and shouting, look at Axia, it's much better than you." King Qin put the box in Li Xia's arms and squinted at Jin Clumsy.
"What about you? When you were seven years old, you had to say that you were sick, boiled medicine, and you had to eat a piece of candy when you took a sip, and you had two boxes of candy for half a bowl of medicine! Jin clumsy said that he would not let a single step.
"Nonsense!" King Qin almost jumped up, "You mean yourself, half a bowl of medicine has to be put on at least one box of sugar, and the imperial dining room can't make it for you to eat!" Who doesn't know this? I wanted to save you some face! On the day of the crown, who held a box of candy and said that if you eat candy in the future, you will have to eat it secretly? ”
"You!" Jin Cunyan looked really angry, "Are you embarrassed to talk about me?" Who was the child grabbing candy from other people's five-year-old children? When people eat one piece, you eat three, and you grab the last piece, and you are embarrassed to say me? ”
Li Xia hugged the box, ate the juice candy one by one, and happily looked at the two fighting cocks like you stared at me, I stared at you and Qin Wang and Jin Cunyan who exposed each other's shortcomings, these black materials, it is really excellent to come to sugar.
Lu Yi, Li Wenshan, and Gu Liu stood in a row, staring at King Qin and Jin Cunyan who were arguing.
Lu Yi stared, speechless, Gu Liu's excitement was far greater than his consternation, as soon as one foot fell on the ground together, he almost stomped his feet and clapped his hands loudly, Li Wenshan's stunned eyes were about to fall......
"Ahem! Ahem! Lu Yi couldn't stand it anymore, coughed a few times, and his voice rose sharply, startling everyone, "Let people serve the food, hurry up!" Everybody is starving! ”
"Humph!"
"Humph!"
King Qin and Jin Zhuoyan snorted at each other, Jin Zhuoyan shook off the folding fan, hula-la-swayed quickly, and turned to sit at the table.
King Qin also seemed to be angry, put the folding fan away, walked to the top in one step, and was just about to sit down, another sharp spin, grabbed Li Xia, pressed Li Xia holding the sugar box on the empty chair, and sat down on the top again.
