159. A beautiful compliment
I gritted my teeth and really held the brush, but I couldn't start with the correct posture. This thing is so rusty that I can hardly remember, my heart is horizontal, let's follow the cat and the tiger.
After learning Ah Ping's practice, he did not first draw portraits, but first painted the surrounding scenery, and when he painted others, he carefully scrutinized and pondered every stroke, and stared at him from time to time to observe carefully. Finally, he still knew to look at me, and his eyes were so calm that he made me feel like a spring breeze. That's him, being stared at so that I don't feel awkward, and I'm afraid it won't work with anyone else.
Later, it was estimated that Yan Qi and Lu He both came to the microscopic level when they saw that I was painting so seriously, and it was Yan Qi who gasped first and said, "This is what you painted?" I didn't raise my head and didn't feel angry: "Do you see a ghost painting next to here?" ”
"Ghosts?" Green Lotus looked around stupidly, "Niangniang, there shouldn't be any ghosts here." ”
These two people are really a living treasure, and they always make some nonsensical jokes for me. Just like now, Yan Qi said that he didn't believe that my painting foundation was so good, and Lu He said that he saw me painting with his own eyes, and he didn't see ghosts haunting.
I couldn't bear it anymore before I scolded, "If you two can't be quiet, go out and come back." ”
Now it all stopped, and I quieted down and stopped talking nonsense, but I refused to leave, so I just leaned on my side and whispered to the painting. But Ah Ping himself was neither shocked nor angry, and he didn't have the slightest displeasure, just sat there and looked at me silently.
When I made the last stroke, Yan Qi couldn't help but beckon: "Childe, come and see." ”
Ah Ping asked, "Are they all painted?" ”
I nodded, and after standing for a long time, my waist became sore, and I hammered my hand on the back of my waist a few times before saying, "Don't come to see it, I painted you as a pig's head, it's ugly." But unexpectedly, everyone else who was muttering behind me knew that "If you can have such a good-looking pig's head as Your Highness, you can take as much as you want." ”
I couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Shut up! ”
But I didn't think that my maid was not afraid of me at all, so she shrugged her shoulders and continued: "Niangniang, Your Highness is here." ”
Nonsense, I have eyes, and I can see that Ah Ping has walked in front of me. His gaze fell on my painting, and after looking at it again and again, he raised his eyes, "Lan, do you really know how to draw?" ”
"Can this be counted? I'm just watching you paint and learn from it. "It's incredible to realize that you can draw when you pick up the pen, but when you see Ah Ping sitting there and put down the pen, you don't want to sketch randomly, he is so familiar, but he has never traced it on the paper. Even though the eyebrows and eyes are deeply imprinted in the brain, they still observe and compare again and again, and then put pen to paper. I think it's very meaningful to draw him well, and I don't want to be sloppy when it comes to him.
Ah Ping didn't ask, his eyes looked back at the painting, and he browsed carefully, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth gradually deepened. It was evident from the look in his eyes that he loved the painting. This time, he didn't even let Yan Qi touch it, so he stayed by the painting and waited for the ink to dry, and then carefully rolled it up little by little. I look funny, is it so precious? But there is no doubt that you are happy in your heart, that is, the feeling that you do something or give a gift, and the other party cherishes it more than you imagined, who doesn't love it?
Ah Ping put away the scroll and went into the house, and I followed him to see him put the scroll in a special cloth and silk painting tube, and then took out a brocade box from the cabinet, which seemed to be to be put in it again.
When the brocade box was opened, the first thing I saw was red, and there was something there. I couldn't help but approach the past and asked in astonishment: "Is this ...... Our favorite suit? Sure enough, Ah Ping nodded and responded lightly: "Well, there are two sets in total, one was brought back when I went to Ginkgo Village before, and the other was the dress for our wedding." ”
"Why do you have to put it all away?"
"I'll keep everything related to you together." He took out a small long box from under his clothes and handed it over, I naturally took it and opened it to take a look, and found that it was a jasper hairpin. He said: "You said you lost the one you bought before, but I chose another one later, and I never found a chance to give it to you." ”
This hosta is better than the one we bought in the bazaar, whether in terms of color or touch, I don't know how many times, I'm afraid it's a palace thing.
Unexpectedly, Ah Ping seemed to know what I was thinking, and directly denied it: "I didn't pick it from the palace, it was when I passed through a small town on the way to find you, I saw the owner of the jade shop take it out for auction, and I remembered you when I saw it." ”
Things are not about the high or low, but about the heart. If it was only one of the items he had chosen in the palace, although he also wanted to give it to me, it was by no means as touching as he was to see things and think about people on the way to find me. I handed it back, and when I saw his eyes sink, I said, "Help me put it on, fool." He immediately smiled, took the box and took out the hosta in his hand and stood in front of me, his eyebrows and eyes were seriously fixed on the top of my hair, his movements were very light, and he didn't feel any pain when the hairpin was inserted into the scalp.
I looked left and right, and there was no mirror in his east room, so I smiled at him and asked, "Is it pretty?" ”
"Beautiful."
A beautiful compliment is usually a woman's favorite love word. I'm a layman, and I'm no exception.
Climbing on his shoulder, I couldn't help but wonder about the box, "Is there any other treasure in it?" He took it out and opened it to show me, "Hey, why is it still with you?" I was surprised and asked, it was actually my star and moon bracelet.
"You just throw it on the table, and I'll put it away for you."
Have it? I thought about it with my head sideways, but I don't have an impression, I have been living a "pig-raising" life recently, if I hadn't seen it here in Ah Ping, I would have forgotten about it. Reaching out to take it, but Ah Ping grabbed his hand, he shook his head and said, "Don't bring it yet, lest you lose it and don't know where to put it, I'll keep it for you for the time being." ”
"How can I lose anything." symbolically retorted, and didn't insist on wearing it anymore, as if I heard that it was not good to wear magnetic things when I was pregnant with a baby, and I don't know if this star and moon contain an internal magnetic field, so it's better to avoid it as much as possible.
When Ah Ping covered the big box and put it away, I smiled and joked that in the future, all the treasures in our family will be handed over to him for safekeeping. He glanced at me and said, "I'm not at ease with you." ”
I crossed my waist, and Lang Lang asked, "What is there to worry about?" Will I lose it for you? ”
"I won't lose it, but I forgot where to put it." He paused, and the words were clear: "One pregnancy is stupid for three years." ”
I was so angry that I went straight away, and he was stupid for three years when he was pregnant, and he was stupid, and he was still playing a fool. When I walked into the courtyard, I bumped into Yan Qi, and when I saw me striding out angrily, I asked after a sigh: "Ah, Childe made you angry again?" ”
I pointed to him and commanded, "Don't burn his supper tonight." ”
"Okay, you're the biggest here, and you're what you say."
But he didn't give me this opportunity to be powerful, and when it was near dusk, a little eunuch came to summon that the emperor called Ah Ping to discuss the matter, and Ah Ping changed into his robe and went out, so I didn't wait for him at night. After seeing him leave, I heard Yan Qi laughing at me beside me: "It seems that Gongzi has something to do at night, so I don't need to make dinner for him." ”
I gritted my teeth with hatred, and this kid saw all my loss.
As the birthday banquet approached, Ah Ping was indeed getting busier and busier, and he had to arrange everything inside and out. Listening to what he said when he came back, it should be that Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately tested him and put him fully responsible for this birthday banquet.
Therefore, the uncles and guests who returned from afar before were all received by Ah Ping. During this period, I didn't see Zhu Di again, even Zhu Gaoxu was nowhere to be seen, he should have been governed by his father and didn't dare to disobey.
Finally, on this day, Zhu Yuanzhang's birthday arrived. On weekdays, I don't have to participate in the big and small banquets in the palace because of Zhu Yuanzhang's amnesty, but this birthday banquet has to go, Yan Qi's special identity let him stay in Lanyuan, and Ah Ping brought a green lotus when he sent someone back to pick me up.
Although the banquet was in the evening, he had to arrive early, and when he finally walked into the banquet hall, he saw Ah Ping's figure. The little eunuch who brought us here asked me to wait a moment, and he went to report to His Highness. Seeing that the little eunuch approached Ah Ping and pointed towards us, Ah Ping then turned to look back, and walked quickly towards me without hesitation.
Looking at the handsome man getting closer and closer, my heart warmed. Whenever I appeared, he always walked towards him without the slightest hesitation, which was enough to prove my place in his heart.
When I got closer, he was about to talk to me, but I heard a call from the side: "Bing'er." ”
Turning his head, he saw that Concubine Lu's honor guard was coming towards this side, and the pomp and circumstance were so big that everyone present looked sideways. Ah Ping's eyebrows frowned slightly, then stretched out, took my hand, stepped forward, and called respectfully: "Mother, you are here." I lowered my eyes and bowed down lightly and called, "Mother." ”
This is the first time I have seen Concubine Lu since I learned that the child in my womb almost had an accident because of the incense, and her dignity and majesty are the same as at the beginning. Many times I can't figure out how a mother-in-law can be so ruthless as to kill her son's biological child? Is it really the environment of this palace that makes people, or is it a bad nature? But if the nature is not good, how can such a pure character be born and educated?
