After finishing the New Year's Celebration, Pearl wants to go to see her son, but here at home, the three sons really can't be thrown away! At this time, a letter came from my hometown saying that my grandfather Liu Da was seriously ill and that he was going to die. His father Liu Tonghammer has a bad relationship with his grandparents, grandma is not Liu Tonghammer's biological mother, Liu Tonghammer and his wife blame the grandparents for being too partial, and when they sold the pearls, they sold it or a death deed, which is also one of the reasons for the complete break between parents and grandparents.

Pearl is not without guilt for her grandparents and uncles and aunts who want to cheat her and her second girl's dowry and marry them instead, plus they treat her grandfather so harshly, which makes Pearl dislike. But now grandpa can't have an accident, because Liu Gui has been delayed for a year, and if he continues to delay, it's really hard to say what will happen, the man goes, and the woman will be gone in two years, which is also possible, to put it bluntly, you can't let grandpa Liu Da die now, it's not the time to die! His second brother's grades have improved rapidly in the past two years, and even Mingqian is praised, seeing that the exam is coming in the fall, if he keeps filial piety at this time, what can he do?

Thinking of this, Pearl directly asked her husband for leave and hurriedly took someone back to her parents' house. Running all the way, when I got home, fortunately, Liu Da still has a breath, in the doctor's words, it is a disease from hard work, no wonder, the uncle at home does not work, the main labor force is still grandpa, Pearl took advantage of the time to feed grandpa to drink water, and gave Da Huan Dan to grandpa to eat,

"Oh, my old man! What am I going to do if you die? I don't have a son of my own who can afford to buy a coffin. Not to mention the good material of my granddaughter to make a shroud, this life is aggrieved! ”

Pearl looked at the people around him, his parents were naturally good at wearing, and the pocket money that Pearl gave to the two of them every year was more than 5,000 taels, not counting the food and clothing, and the uncle's family could wear it, all of them were muslin clothes, but compared with the brocade of his parents, it was naturally a big difference, and his father Liu Tonghammer's face was ruddy. Blessed are men. Not to mention the mother, you don't have to do any work, just watch your grandson. Now Liu Qiang and Liu Gang have also been sent to Sanniu, so naturally they have nothing to do. Fang's head was covered with red gold dotted emerald jewelry. He wears a gold and jade bracelet on his wrist. A face looks ten years younger than Aunt Zhou. My cousin's family also came, because they had a good relationship with their family and had a good life. These two days. Liu Da has a lot of gas and little air intake, a coffin has been placed in the yard, and the shrouds are all purchased by his parents, all of them are fine satin and silk, and his writing is also silk and embroidery.

Sister Xiaoyue and cousin Qiaogu also brought their husbands and children here, it seems that they are not bad, at least they are wearing fine cloth clothes, think about the jade pendants and gold and silver nudes that they gave to their grandfathers, which are enough for these people to live well. Grandpa Tai is a soft-hearted person, seeing that his son's family is not doing well, he still can't help but give some help, these Liu Tonghammer and his wife all know and don't stop it. What is this Kim crying now, her husband is not dead, who is she crying to?

When he was crying, Liu Da suddenly sighed, everyone hurriedly gathered around, Jin grabbed Pearl by the collar and asked, "What did you give him food?" ”

Displeased, Pearl pulled her hand away and said, "Ginseng pills." ”

"Give me more, no, give more, you, an unfilial granddaughter, have such a good thing, you don't even know how to honor your grandparents, you are also worthy of being the wife of the official family."

"Presumptuous, bold village woman, this is our four-rank lady of the Great Liang Dynasty, how can you be unreasonable. Grab you to the government and punish you for one of the following crimes, let alone pick up your pants, sixty big boards. "The grandmother next to Pearl was invited by the old lady of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, and she has seen any scene.

The Kim family suddenly lost his voice, and Pearl checked his grandfather's pulse, and asked people to call the doctor who was waiting outside. "If you don't say a few words, maybe there will be a little benefit, if you make a mistake, I have a way to control you."

Jin nodded hurriedly, even Zhou, and he didn't dare to look at the pearl more. Since Liu An died, she has stopped a lot, and originally planned to succeed a son in her family, but unfortunately everyone knows what they are, and no one gave Zhang Luo a stunt, so she went to the door to say, and directly made people ashamed to come back.

Seeing that everyone was surrounding Liu Da, Pearl let himself out, handed over a medicine to his father, and said, "This medicine can bring the dead back to life, but if you get sick again, you can only get half better, and the third time, it is a little worse, and in the end you can only wait for death." This time, grandpa's illness, if it hadn't been held for too long, would not have been like this. I gave the medicine to my father, you and your mother don't use it, if it weren't for the second brother......"

Pearl didn't say anything further, but Liu Tonghammer also understood in his heart, and the Fang clan on the side said, "You can rest assured, you have to wait for anything, so I took it to our house and invited someone to wait." No matter how much you toss, you have to let the second child finish the test. ”

Pearl nodded, "If that's the case, that's great." The three children in the family were still young, so I went back first. Dad, you and your mother need to take more care, and if there is something uncomfortable, you must come to me. ”

"Don't worry, your mother and I have remembered, just for the sake of the second child, we also have to live well." They also know that if one of the parents dies, the second daughter will have to keep filial piety for three years, and all the officials will have to come back!

Pearl first went back to Zhuozhou to see the steel smelting and jade and jewelry processing there. Recently, pearls have obtained a lot of diamonds, and fine gemstones, and some of them are taken out and cut into jewelry. Pearl admires these craftsmen very much, the craftsmanship really makes her a person who has seen many modern jewelry are amazed, although the design is somewhat limited, but now it has been released a lot, the most rare is the traditional filigree craftsmanship, the ornaments and jewelry made are simply treasures. Speaking of which, I have to talk about the ability of pearls to dig people. Let his subordinates secretly get in touch with the family of the craftsman who made jewelry in the palace, and said that he would give a generous bonus, so that the craftsman ate the medicine they sent and returned to his hometown, there are two such examples, and it is easier to dig from others, but because of the secretiveness, no one knows where these craftsmen went.

When he returned home, he was warmly welcomed, and in the evening, Mingqian lay down in the bed and asked Pearl, "Do you still have any medicine for your grandfather?" ”

Pearl was shocked, and reflexively asked, "You have installed someone next to me?" ”

"I sent someone to follow. The doctor there is not a fool, a dying man, suddenly better, can you not doubt it? Naturally, I told others, I think this matter will reach the emperor's ears sooner or later, otherwise it will be sacrificed. ”

Pearl calmed down and said, "I collected the ancient recipe, and it took a long time to refine the medicine, there are sixty pieces, although this has the function of resurrecting the dead, but there are also great drawbacks, eat once, live, the next time even if you have a minor illness, you have to do it again, otherwise it is a death, the third life, eat another pill, it is just a continuation of life, and you can't live for a month." ”

Ming Qian snorted and said, "In this way, it's not a good medicine!" See if it's useful. So be it! If you give me 27 pills, you will tell the boss that there will be a total of 30 grains, and when the time comes, whether you use them or not, it is not how you can influence them. ”

"Okay, I'll give it to you tomorrow."

Pearl was really careless, but he didn't expect to be watched by others, Pearl felt that Mingqian sent someone to protect and monitor him, definitely not because he was pregnant, or because he was in danger, but someone was eyeing him. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I should be more thoughtful.

This reminds Pearl of his kiln factory in the south, and now there are no three dynasties of Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, but this porcelain still has the distinctive characteristics of the three dynasties in the method it provides, and these porcelains are directly exported to Luzon and sold to foreigners, directly in exchange for silver.

Although the development of porcelain in the Ming Dynasty was slightly inferior, its artistic achievements could not be ignored. From the condensation of Hongwu glaze to the beauty of Yongxuan blue and white; From the elegance of Chenghua Doucai to the tranquility of Hongzhi yellow glaze; From the magnificence of Jiajing to the brightness of Chongzhen's blue and white flowers, all show the wisdom of the Ming Dynasty.

The great achievements of Ming Dynasty porcelain were first manifested in the successful firing of delicate white glaze. This delicate and transparent white glaze, the glaze is translucent and bright, pure white as milk. At the same time, the diversification of porcelain coloring methods in the Ming Dynasty marked the high level of development of China's porcelain-making technology. The following are explained from Ming blue and white and doucai.

Doucai porcelain, with novel ornamentation, elegant color and famous in the world. The painting of Doucai porcelain patterns is concise, and the content is mainly flowers, birds, and figures. The fetal quality of porcelain is delicate and pure, the glaze layer is moist and quiet, the elegant blue and white under the glaze and the gorgeous colors on the glaze match, forming a delicate and gorgeous artistic characteristics, so the Chenghua Doucai porcelain is the most precious in all dynasties. The most famous is the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup. Qianlong Dynasty Tang Heng interpreted the "Examination of the Study" and said: "The kiln is based on the five colors, the wine cup is the chicken tank as the most, the peony is painted on the top, and the hen is painted below, and it is ready to move." ”

Xuande official kiln blue and white, occupies a very important position in the history of the development of Chinese ceramics, has a unique artistic charm, the work has been respected by future generations, for the model of blue and white technology. In the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties, the quality is exquisite, the shape is diverse, and the color glaze is rich, reaching the peak. Such as enamel and pastel to come,

Enamel color is a kind of glaze color decoration technique transplanted to the porcelain fetus by painting enamel technique, which is called "Gu Yuexuan" by later generations, and "rose color" by foreign countries.

A kind of porcelain glaze decoration technique, also known as "soft color". It is a new variety produced by the influence of enamel color on the basis of five colors during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and it is a white color material "glass white" mixed with color painting. "Glass white" has an opaque effect, and the pattern is drawn to give a pastel feel that takes advantage of the characteristics of the rendering technique, so it is called "pastel" or "soft color".

Then, the three major types of porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties were all obtained in the three major kilns in Jingdezhen, where pearls were made. Chicken bowl cups or something, are all small meanings, from there to the pearl sent porcelain, all exquisite, so far, in addition to the antique porcelain of the previous dynasty, the pearl space, all the collection is these own kiln products, the number of 50,000 pieces, the number will increase.
