I couldn't help but praise, "Miss Lin's painting is so good~"

He is a rough man, even if he wants to talk nonsense, he has no good words~

He regretted why he didn't read more poems on weekdays, otherwise he could speak out and show off at this moment.

Cheng Deqing was good at poetry and painting, Liu Yan was excellent at painting, but he was only good at boxing and kicking. He thought that the reason why he was able to hang out with them was purely due to fighting in groups and being loyal and they admired him.

In the past, he didn't feel anything. He looked at himself as a handsome young man. The top geisha in Yihualou was good at singing and singing. She only admired Cheng Deqing and looked down on him. He didn't feel anything. Everyone has their own love. , women, you and I are romantic, shaving one's head and choosing a hot one is shameless; licking one's face and trying to force a romantic relationship, that's a low-level thing.

It can be seen that I fell in love with Miss Lin at the first sight. Although she was displaced and suffered humiliation, she settled down. She was as quiet as a delicate flower shining on the water, and moved like a weak willow supporting the wind. This majestic appearance could not be concealed. Can't stand it anymore.

Even though he knew that Miss Lin had someone in mind, Zhang Xiulin just couldn't control himself.

Lin Wanwan glanced at Zhang Xiulin lightly, lowered her eyes and said with a smile, "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang, I am also a very skilled person~" After saying that, she brought tea and asked Zhang Xiulin to sit down.

Zhang Xiulin did not dare to look directly at Lin Wanwan. He put a package of books wrapped in oil paper and tied with cotton thread on the table, and asked Mrs. Liu to use scissors to open it. Lin Wanwan picked a book "Erya" and sat on the other side to read.

Under the candlelight, Zhang Xiulin saw her smoky eyebrows that seemed to be frowning but not frowning, her eyes that seemed to be happy but not happy, her slender jade fingers were like green onions, caressing the yellowed pages of the book, and a strand of long hair hanging from her ears to her chest. In front of me, it seems like Chang'e in the moon, not eating the fireworks of the world.

Zhang Xiulin's throat was dry and he didn't dare to look at it. He opened the tea cup and ate all the tea leaves...

When she came back to her senses, she heard Lin Wanwan say softly, "Mr. Zhang, I wonder if there is any message from Mr. Cheng?"

Zhang Xiulin felt sour in his heart when he heard Cheng Deqing. That guy was already pregnant with his beloved wife. Why didn't he be asked to do this kind of heroic rescue of a beauty earlier? Maybe...

Zhang Xiulin calmed down for a moment, then turned his head to meet Lin Wanwan's clear eyes. Those eyes were full of emotion and seemed to have magic power. Zhang Xiulin said in a psychedelic way, "We went to school together during the day, and he said that Prince Anyuan has not come back yet." , but I heard rumors from the people in Shangjing that Anyuan Hou Shizi led the troops to fight and repelled the sneak attack of the Quanrong tribe, and he must be back soon."

I heard that the Anyuan Hou Mansion is discussing marriage with the chief of Funing County.

Zhang Xiulin pursed his lips and did not say the next words.

After hearing this, Lin Wanwan's eyes lit up, like sparks, and then slowly dimmed again.

The room was silent for a moment, and the only sounds that could be heard were the chirping of birds in the yard, the whistling of the cold wind, the rustling of leaves, and Mrs. Liu's footsteps.

After a moment, Lin Wanwan forced a smile, bowed Yingying, and said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang. Without you, I would be a dead soul in a mass grave right now. I really don't know how to repay you."

Zhang Xiulin stood up, stared at the book in Lin Wanwan's hand, and said in a low voice, "You're welcome. You can stay here in peace. It's best not to go out. After this period of time, I will take you to see Brother Cheng."

After saying that, she walked out of the room. Lin Wanwan bowed again, walked him to the door, and closed the door gently.

Zhang Xiulin stood outside the door and stopped. The cold air of winter enveloped him, but his heart was burning.

Prince Anyuan is getting married to the head of Funing County. You might as well marry me.

Then she turned to look at the bright yellow candle shadow on her door, and then her heart slowly became cold again. He had no official position, and was just a human being. How could he be so virtuous and capable as to marry such a talented person? A lady named Zhuji.

Today is the appointed day. At Shenshi, Mrs. Cheng and the housekeeper went out in a carriage.

The banquet was held at the Yixian Building on County Yamen Back Street. It was the property of the Wang family. It was the time to welcome guests. People were coming and going, the lights were bright, and it was very lively.

The shopkeeper with sly eyebrows and pointed mouth was standing at the door of the backyard. He was greeting people in a flattering manner. When he turned around and saw Mr. Cheng and the chief butler of the Cheng family, it was like changing faces in a Sichuan opera. He tore off the fake face and replaced it with a mean one. dough.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Cheng? I haven't seen Mr. Cheng come to our building for a few years. The master craftsman in our building is the best in Qiantang. Everyone in Qiantang praises him~ I'm here today, but I have to Have a good taste and open your eyes~"

The butler was also smiling, "Hey, there are so many things to open your eyes to. When it comes to being number one, everyone in Qiantang knows about Cheng Ji Jufangzhai. When we got the plaque of "The Number One Taste of Qiantang", this Yixian There is still weeds on the floor~"

The sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked shopkeeper choked and was speechless for a long time. He changed his face to a zombie-like white face and said, "Private room No. , please leave soon~"

The butler didn't talk nonsense, bowed his hands to the shopkeeper, and went upstairs.

The shopkeeper with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks spat at the backs of the two of them, "Why are you so arrogant? You just want to come to our building, and I can't stand it!"

Cheng Jingze walked to the private room, which was said to be a living room of a wealthy family. The large reception room was already half full. The old man of the Li family had arrived, as well as the boss of Baosheng Bank and the boss of Zhang Ji Rice Shop. There is also the owner on the first floor, etc.

Cheng Jingze greeted them one by one and found a seat to sit down. People came one after another. Cheng Jingze glanced at them and found that most of the famous wealthy households in Qiantang County had arrived.

After drinking a pot of tea, Dong Ruzan and Magistrate Zhang arrived belatedly. The old man of the Wang family followed behind him with a shy belly. Everyone stood up and saluted. Magistrate Zhang introduced them to everyone with a smile.

"Everyone, this is the son of Lord Dong of the state capital. I invite you all to come today. It is also Lord Dong who wants to meet you."

After finishing speaking, Dong Ruzan smiled and said to everyone, "I have only been here for a short time and have never met each of you. Let's get together today. Please drink more and don't think I am nosy."

Everyone said, you are so polite, you are so polite, and you are truly lucky to be able to drink with him...

Cheng Jingze had a smile on his lips. He looked at Old Mrs. Wang's enthusiasm and his teeth felt cold. He then looked around at the crowd and saw that everyone was vying to fawn over Dong Ruzan, and he couldn't help but feel pity in his heart.

You all want to climb a big tree to seek shelter, but you don’t know that you have already fallen into someone else’s pocket, waiting to break your bones and suck out your marrow!

Dong Ruzan dealt with everyone enthusiastically and familiarly, without any pretense of a prince from the state capital. He was easy-going and easy-going, and everyone was even more enthusiastic when they saw him. They came and went, and in the hall, cups and cups were exchanged, and it was very lively.

After drinking for thirty years, Dong Ruzan turned to look at Old Mrs. Cheng. He smiled and said as if he had just seen an old friend, "I haven't seen you recently. He seems a little haggard. Business is important, but health is the most important~"

Everyone also pretended to be pretentious, laughing and echoing, "Mr. Cheng has indeed lost weight~"

"Could it be that the old man took a concubine and squandered his energy? How come he is so thin~"

Everyone laughed, and one person laughed so hard that he slapped the table.

Old Master Cheng smiled silently, stood up, and said to Master Dong, "Master, I toast you three times to apologize. The Cheng family has done something wrong. Please forgive me and show your respect~" After speaking, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, three glasses in a row.

When everyone's voices fell silent, they heard Dong Ruzan laugh and say, "Mr. Cheng, you're too polite. There is no right or wrong in dealing with people. It's up to others to decide what's right. We agreed not to talk about business today. We will only talk about feelings when we get together. Besides, drinking too much can harm your health. At your age, you should be more careful~"

Mrs. Wang repeatedly echoed, "This old Cheng is happily saying some disappointing things. It's rare for the young master to be happy. Everyone is here. He should be punished with three more cups~"

Some flattering people immediately agreed. The chief steward stood behind Cheng Jingze and looked at the old man nervously.

Cheng Jingze hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, "I'm the one who ruined the fun. Young Master is magnanimous, so I'll punish myself with three glasses of wine." He picked up the wine glass and drank three glasses in a row. When Dong Ruzan saw it, he high-fived and praised Cheng Jingze, saying that he is still strong and powerful. .

After hearing this, Mr. Li smiled a little, held the wine glass, and also praised Dong Ru, "I saw that the young master's face is as bright as a crown jade, as bright as a star. There is a successor to the master of the state capital. It is respectable and sighing. I am lucky enough to drink with the young master. It’s my blessing, sir, I’d like to toast you a glass~” After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

Dong Ruzan looked at Old Mrs. Li carefully, smiled, put down the wine glass, stood up and walked behind Old Mrs. Li, patted his shoulder and said, "Mr. Li, if we meet in Beijing another day, please treat me to a glass of wine~"

Old Mrs. Li's heart skipped a beat, fearing that he might have missed something. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Definitely, definitely."

Everyone just thought the two were laughing and respectfully greeted Magistrate Zhang.

At three o'clock in the morning, Mrs. Wang clapped her hands again, and saw a group of enchanting and colorful dancers coming in. Each of them tied up their fairy buns and twisted them slowly. Their small-waisted willows swayed like the wind with the beautiful singing. When she danced, her gauze dress was thin, and the exposed tube top was embroidered with different flowers.

Those breasts, those legs, that white neck, and that little balsam-spotted mouth dazzled everyone~

The night had reached its climax, and seeing everyone intoxicated, Dong Ruzan put down his wine glass, chuckled, and said loudly to everyone, "Everyone, I have something to ask for your help."

Everyone's hearts trembled, and their eyes suddenly became brighter and their minds were no longer drunk. They thought to themselves that they finally got to the point.

Dong Ruzan glanced around the crowd and sighed, "To be honest with you, my father is Mr. Yan Ge's favorite disciple, and he is very popular with him. Seeing that Mr. Ge's birthday is approaching, Mr. Ge is a noble man and does not like jade and jewelry. My father thought hard and thought It is better to write some poems and paintings to wish the old man a happy birthday and show how much you care about him."

"My father made hundreds of scrolls overnight, but I just don't know which one is the best. People say that Qiantang has the most talented people, and even the roadside shoe sellers can recite a poem, so I would like to ask you to taste it, so that I can complete it. Explain."

Everyone felt relieved, they didn't know much about poetry and paintings, but they just praised it vigorously.

As he spoke, Magistrate Zhang also clapped his hands, and the group of singers took out a picture scroll from behind. The singers were posing in enchanting poses, and the pictures appeared, including flowers, plants, and trees. Animals, birds, insects and fish.

The scroll is not big, just a piece of paper as narrow as a woman's back. It doesn't look resembling, it just looks ordinary.

Everyone was busy cheering and praising the master's painting skills and traditional Chinese painting. Every painting is a unique treasure!

Mr. Wang even pulled his beard and praised, "The governor is busy with official duties and has many things to do. I don't want this painting to be realistic. Look at this grasshopper, it is so green and beautiful~"

Magistrate Zhang looked embarrassed. He had made up the drawing of the grasshopper, and there was even a drop of ink on the word! I didn't want to be dealt with by the servant, so I ended up here somehow.

He also forced a smile on his face and boasted vigorously, "No, it's really vivid, as if it's about to jump off the paper. Mr. Zhou Fu is really a masterpiece."

He walked into the painting, pretending to appreciate the masterpiece, but in fact he was looking at the singer's breasts. Unexpectedly, he saw Dong Zhiyi's seal stamped under the painting. He took a closer look and found that Dong Zhiyi's stamp was stamped under each painting.

Magistrate Zhang...

Dong Ruzan was suddenly unaware, immersed in the boasts of everyone, but he was sober and said with a smile, "I am so loved by you all. It seems that each of these paintings is a treasure, so it will be difficult for me. I have to choose a first-class one." I won’t embarrass you all once the paintings come out, so I will hang them in the Yixian Building. Whoever pays the highest price is the one who speaks the truth, and I will report it to my father when the time comes."

people...

After listening to Dong Ruzan's words, the singers walked to the east wall of the living room with their slim waists. The shopkeeper of Yixian Building came over with a pick pole and hung the thirty famous paintings on the wall one by one. .

Everyone pretended to be enthusiastic and drank some wine. Dong Ruzan greeted them one by one in an approachable manner, and then dispersed.

The next day, Mrs. Wang ordered the shopkeeper to take down the painting "Grasshopper". The boy guarding it said, "Mr. Wang, please leave a message. Mr. Dong is thinking of discussing calligraphy and painting with you someday."

Mrs. Wang winked at the shopkeeper, who smiled and said, "This one is the best in our opinion, worth five thousand taels~"

The boy agreed with a smile and wrote in the book "Grasshopper" by the old lady Wang of the boat shop, which was worth five thousand taels.

Mr. Wang...

He scanned the upper and lower lines and saw:

"Cricket" The rice line of Mr. Zhang is worth ten thousand taels

"Ba Geer" Mr. Lin of Yinfeng Bank is worth taels

"The Sparrow" Good luck comes to the restaurant Mr. Lu is worth thirty thousand taels

Mr. Wang...

Are they all blind? This painting, which is not worth even two cents of silver, is just to give face to the governor. Five thousand taels is worth it, but it is actually worth thirty thousand taels! These people are so flattering.

Old Mrs. Wang was angry and hurriedly called the boy and said, "Brother, I forgot. I think this pair of "Lai Gouer" is the best, worth thirty thousand taels~!"

The little brother quickly changed a piece of paper and recorded it.

Mr. Cheng also came with the big housekeeper. It was ridiculous to see these people being so shameless and asking for higher prices than the last.

The chief steward cursed secretly, he was so greedy for money, it was unprecedented!

I had no choice but to join in the fun and chose a "Fat Pig" for taels!

In a few days, all the paintings in Yixian Tower were robbed.
