Chapter 7 May the heart of one person be won, and the white head will not be separated
When I got Ashley's call, I was coming out of Universal World. It turns out that there are so many clues hidden in the seemingly uncomplicated criminal case. The dark side of life has to be detected little by little, and my heart is a little heavy.
But in life, you still need some positivity and sunshine.
"Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing, I just finished talking about the case with the client, do you miss me? I'm looking for you now. β
Lu Qing, my best friend.
If I represent an independent and confident professional woman in modern society, stepping on high heels and drinking Starbucks, she can be independent and resolute; And she, dressed in white and fluttering, looks indifferent and calm, always like a little girl on a college campus who is not deeply involved in the world.
For most people, the imperial capital is a city of opportunities where challenges and opportunities coexist; But for Lu Ran, it is just a harsh living environment with haze in winter and poplar flocculents in spring.
The major she likes, the job she likes, and the people she likes finally made her stay in this cold city willingly.
Sometimes, fate is wonderful, I wondered more than once if Yue Lao was signing the line for Lu Qing when he was dozing off, or Cupid was shooting the wrong two people, Lu Qing and her boyfriend Xu Chen were really ...... It's so out of tune.
I remember that one morning, I was rushing to report in the law firm, and suddenly received a call from her-
"Lavender, hahaha!"
"Have you been drinking? Or did you take the wrong medicine? I frowned, and I heard her silly laugh with a look of disgust.
"Hey, hello, I'm Xu Chen." The man's deep voice reached his ears.
WhatοΌ I looked up at my watch, and it was half past two in the morning.
Lu Qing is a good girl, why is it so late that she actually messes with a man?!
"Well, Lavender, he's my boyfriend, boyfriend, oh, freshly baked!"
This, winter has just arrived, and spring is coming? Our family Lu Qing has been single for 22 years, and finally successfully sold? Two days ago, she complained to me that her mother went to ask a fortune teller, saying that she would not be able to find Ruyi Langjun until she was in her thirties. Tsk, it seems that fortune tellers are not allowed.
Xu Chen, a graduate student of Peking University Health Science Center, worked in the First Hospital of Peking University after graduation.
I thought Lu Qing went behind my back to get married, but I didn't expect that the two met in a game. One studied medicine and the other studied history, and it was love at first sight in an archaeological photo contest. He raced against time on the operating table to save lives, and she tended to cultural relics in the restoration room next to the Forbidden City. Ah, fate, fate, you are really willful.
Now the relationship between the two is very stable, as long as Xu Chen is not busy, he will go to the Forbidden City to pick up Lu Qing from work, and live a fairy-like life.
Stepping into the antique cultural relics restoration hall, humidifiers and thermostats are whirring, and seven or eight staff members are busy and dressed simply, as if they have crossed over.
"Lu Qing, your friend is here." A kind aunt led me to Lu Qing's side and said softly.
Facing the sky, a childish smile bloomed on Lu Qing's face.
"Hey, Lavender, long time no see, I miss you!"
I noticed that Lu Qing and her colleagues were wearing masks and gloves, and none of the women were wearing makeup, foundation, nails, and perfume. The seven-fold gate of the Forbidden City blocks the hustle and bustle of the outside world, and it has become a place forgotten by time. The whole restoration room seems to be isolated from the world, their dress and speech are no different from ours, and they live in the age of machine industry, but this craft has thousands of years of life.
"Our master's master is a worker in ancient times, a farmer in industry and commerce." Lu Qing said to me proudly, "Today we are repairing the Sui Dynasty Zhan Ziqian's "Spring Tour". β
"The Spring Tour" is the first heavy color in China. You see, although the painting is only about two feet long, the scene is very open, depicting people walking by the mountains and rivers in the season when the wind is mild and the spring is bright. β
"Our traditional Chinese painting pigments are generally divided into two categories: mineral pigments and vegetable pigments. After a long time, some mineral pigments have oxidized and turned black, and some mineral pigments have either penetrated into the silk, or the gum has been denatured, and it is easy to detach from the silk. β
"You see, when reinforcing it, it's very difficult to get it, the key is the ingredients, and the concentration. If the concentration is not well controlled, the damaged place is easy to open, easy to warp, the glue is not good, and it is easy to fade. β
"The proportion of glue is also adjusted slowly, like taking one hundredth, dipping a little bit first, and then gently wiping it with paper, and the color falls off to prove that the proportion has to be added."
"Turn the heart of the painting upside down, remove the back paper of the life paper, and there are thousands of pieces left to be filled, that one to make up, that one not to do, all of them must be firmly remembered."
I was impressed by the professionalism of their cultural relics restorers, and in the impetuous society, there are still people who are willing to calm down and do such delicate work, and the ingenuity of the "great country craftsmen" is fully revealed.
They see themselves as ordinary Forbidden City staff, but in fact, they are the top cultural relics restoration experts, and they are the doctors who treat the country's top cultural relics.
Most of the materials used in ancient Chinese paintings and calligraphy are silk and paper, with a thin texture, and the age is very old, it is easy to be damaged and faded, and without the work of generations of restorers, it is impossible for us to see those masterpieces that have been handed down for thousands of years.
"Hey, I'll pack up and leave." I was immersed in the worship of the restorers when Lu Qing took off her mask and stabbed me with her elbow.
"Hey, isn't that unfinished?"
"Our museum implements an 8-to-5 working time system, and it is to leave work on time at 5 o'clock, unless it is a special situation, overtime is not allowed, and slow work can be done carefully, you know?"
The winter night in Beijing came early, and we met and smiled and breathed greedily in the rare good air. Holding hands with each other and walking out of the Forbidden City, it was like returning to high school days, carefree.
A loud "Lu Qing!" "Shattered our memories.
I saw a young man riding a bicycle in front of him, a Korean version of a pure white turtleneck sweater, with a pair of slender jeans, warm and artistic, casual and cute.
Well, it's someone else's dear boyfriend, he is Xu Chen.
I quipped Lu Qing: "Ah, look who's coming?" β
Lu Qing pushed me, smiled shyly, let go of the hand holding me, walked straight to Xu Chen, and offered a sweet kiss on the cheek, Xu Chen took the opportunity to hug the little girl in front of him.
"Xu Chen, where's your car?" I shook my head, I didn't dare to look at it, this picture was so abusive.
"Isn't that it?" As soon as her boyfriend came, no one recognized this little girl!
Xu Chen let go of her, turned around and interlocked his fingers with Lu Qing, and nodded politely to me: "Hello Lavender, do you have time to see Qingqing today?" The BMW is parked at home, and it is more convenient to travel by bicycle haha. β
"Yes, yes, our dear family practices the principle of low carbon!"
Yo Yo Yo, it's amazing.
"Let's eat together tonight, it's rare to get together." Xu Chen invited me.
Lu Qing winked at me, ten years best friend, I don't know what she thinks.
"No, I don't dare to disturb the world of the two of you, besides, I can't get used to riding a bicycle, so let's go find my BMW."
Actually, I envy Lu Qing's life, it's bland, it's nice to have something to do and someone is cute.
