There are two high mountains standing on the beige green bamboo. There are several mountains on the left and right. Near the mountain, there is a temple in the low mountain, looming among the luxuriant trees; Quietly flowing past the house...

The reason why Tang Haogen can see it so clearly without brush and ink painting is because this layer of beige green bamboo forms a deep and light contrast with the surrounding amber bamboo flesh after shoveling away the green bamboo.

On the green bamboo, different landscapes and features are used from thick to thin and from shallow to shallow to highlight the hierarchical relationship, and the landscape and trees will not feel chaotic and complicated.

Even if it is not drawn with pen and ink, Tang Haogen is still amazed by the power of the brushwork.

This is the first landscape painting "painted" on bamboo that he has seen in his life, and it is also the first carving work he has seen that uses Liuqing carving method to carve landscape painting on bamboo.

"Where did this come from?" Tang Haogen subconsciously thought that this was not carved by Song Yuyan, and then looked at the side, and there seemed to be small characters. He carefully identified it, "Li Cheng, Qingluan Xiaosi map, engraved on the recording side..."

"Haha, I thought it was carved by Song Dalang, but it turned out that it was carved by someone named Lufang!"

Tang Zhi didn't know what her brother was thinking, why was she relieved again, she snatched back the pen holder and said: "This is carved by Song Yuyan, but she said that this picture was drawn by a great painter named Li Cheng , that master has passed away, only some paintings still remain in the world.”

Tang Haogen was also shocked that it was carved by Song Yuyan. He was unwilling to believe this fact: "How is this possible? How could Song Dalang know how to carve bamboo? You can see that it was carved by a man named Lufang. He bought it back. , fooling you?!"

Only then did Tang Zhi notice these four small characters engraved on a seal, and she secretly speculated: Could this be her real name?

But it was impossible for her to tell the truth to her brother, so she just said: "Maybe this is a sign? Brother, if you don't believe it, forget it, just treat it as something she bought from someone else!"

The brothers and sisters did not continue to argue about who carved the pen holder, but Tang Haogen was delighted to see Lie Xin, and couldn't help but move to his sister's side: "Azhi, is there any trouble at home that needs to be taken care of by brother?"

"No, the house is fine, and the local methods to kill pests are also being tested. Big brother can just go to the yamen to work as an errand." Tang Zhi replied as he wandered around the house.

"What are you looking for, big brother will help you!" Tang Haogen leaned forward graciously.

Tang Zhi searched around, found a few hairpins, stuffed them into the pen container, and put the lid on.

Seeing this, Tang Haogen called out from the bottom of his heart that his sister was ruining such a good pen holder, so he said, "Ah Zhi, this is a pen holder, how can you use it to store hairpins?"

"But I only have one writing brush for daily accounts. It's too wasteful to put only one pen. Why not put my hairpin so I can hide it."

"Your broken hairpin is worthless, do you need to hide it? Besides, you and Xiaoye are the only ones in your room. Don't you treat her like a thief to guard against it?"

Tang Zhi said: "I didn't guard against her!"

Tang Haogen brought the pen holder over, and while taking out her hairpin, he said, "But what if she thinks so? Listen to the elder brother, and the elder brother will help you deal with it."

Tang Zhi finally came to his senses, "Brother, you don't want this pen holder, do you?"

Tang Dianshi, an upright gentleman: "Is the eldest brother the one who will steal things from the younger sister? A person who reads..."

Before he finished speaking, seeing that Tang Zhi was about to snatch the pen holder back, he quickly reached out his hand to stop it, and admitted cheekily, "Ah Zhi, let's make a discussion, you transfer this pen holder to the elder brother, and the elder brother will compensate you for a while." A nice gift."

Tang Zhi seldom sees his elder brother liking an item so much, even though he already agreed in his heart, he still wanted to tease him, so he said: "This is a gift from Song Dalang, if I give it to you, it's not good, right?" ?”

Tang Dian was also in a bit of a dilemma, but he thought for a while, and said: "How about this, why don't you ask Song Dalang to help me buy another pen holder that is exactly the same. Or ask him to tell me where the artist named Lu Fang is?" , I will buy it myself!"

"What if it's very expensive?" Tang Zhi asked again, "If it's very expensive, elder brother is willing?"

Tang Dianshi, who didn't have much money on him, became sad, his expression wilted like an eggplant beaten by frost.Tang Zhi couldn't tease him anymore, so he smiled and pushed the pen holder over, "Brother, take it if you want it, Song Yuyan also said, if I think it's useless, I can use it for you, so I don't want to make it dusty." gone."

Tang Dianshi smiled, looked at the pen holder happily, and said, "Ah Zhi, who the hell is this Lufang who can carve such elegant bamboo carvings! No, I have to go to Song Dalang and let him tell him. Me, how did he get this bamboo carving!"

"It turns out that elder brother also likes bamboo carving?"

Tang Dianshi shook his head: "I don't simply like bamboo carving, but the technique of this green carving is very unique and innovative. Before this, I have never seen such a novel and bold green carving in Mingzhou! Knowing that bamboo green is only such a thin layer, but this person can still carve different shades of it on this layer, it can be described as a miraculous skill!"

Only then did Tang Zhi know that the work carved by Song Yuyan was still of such value!

No wonder her elder brother couldn't believe it was carved by Song Yuyan.However, she didn't intend to force her elder brother to believe that it was Song Yuyan's work. Anyway, after a long time, he would be able to see the reality clearly.

The young Tang Dianshi really went to ask Song Yuyan about the character "Lufang". Song Yuyan said with a smile: "This is the word my grandfather gave me, because my name is Yuyan and my nickname is Shanyao. According to ancient books, There is an elixir in the mountain, which is recorded in Xianfang, and a few pieces of jade are cut and soaked in the fragrance of hundreds of flowers. Therefore, the word "fang" is used as the table word."

Whether it is her grandfather who is a master of jade carving, the representative teacher of the Zhejiang school of bamboo carving, or even her mother who turned from a ceramic artist to a businessman, there are similar characters, which are equivalent to the stage name of the handicraft industry.

Tang Dianshi's head felt dizzy as if it had been hit by a hammer: How could it be possible that Song Dalang was the one who sculpted this work? !

"But it wasn't long ago that your grandfather—"

Song Yuyan had no choice but to start fooling around in a serious manner: "When my father got married, my grandfather had already thought of my name and characters. My father told my mother, so even if my grandfather and father are gone, the name will still be passed down. .”

Tang Dianshi slapped his head and said, "I'm confused."

He then asked Song Yuyan how he knew these skills. Song Yuyan's wording was the same as what he had said to Tang Zhi at the beginning, but he was still confused after hearing it.Going home in a daze, seeing that his sister didn't seem to notice any change in Song Yuyan, he gradually calmed down.

"Song Dalang is still the same Song Dalang, except that he no longer does stupid things and has a craft, nothing has changed." Tang Dianshi said to himself.

Thinking about it this way, he felt relieved, and treated Song Yuyan as before, but he went to the yamen with his pen holder every day to work as an errand.

In the blink of an eye, it was mid-August, and the coastal areas in the south of the Yangtze River also entered the season of frequent typhoons. However, since June, only one typhoon has passed through Mingzhou.

Fortunately, the typhoon was not strong, and only some simple huts were blown down by the wind, causing no casualties.However, the strong wind and heavy rain had a little impact on the crops. For this reason, the county magistrate took his subordinates to the village to express condolences. Therefore, Tang Haogen had to leave early and return late every day.

In addition to his elder brother who is very busy all day long, Tang Zhi and his sisters are also very busy. Song Yuyan found a method to eliminate insect pests from agricultural books and has already achieved initial results. At first, he was worried that the Tang family’s dishes were sprinkled with coal ash, which would make them unhealthy. Seeing that she finally stopped throwing coal ash, I ran back to her to buy vegetables.

Some people inquired: "Miss Tang, before you used coal ash to make the vegetables grow so well, but now you don't need it, why are they still so good?"

Tang Zhi smiled mysteriously: "Of course I found a way to replace mine ash..."

Although she did not sprinkle coal ash in the field, no one dared to steal vegetables, because everyone could often see her spraying something in the vegetable garden.They didn't even know what it was, and if there was something that left a special smell like coal ash, wouldn't they be able to find it like Chen Erming?

But no one thought that these unknown liquids were poisonous. After all, they had eaten so many dishes from Tang's family, and they didn't see any physical discomfort.

Later, vegetable farmers often came to ask Tang Zhi for advice, and Tang Zhi said that this was the method Song Yuyan found out from the book, and asked them to find Song Yuyan.

Leaving aside the fact that everyone knew how complicated Song Yuyan's thoughts were when he helped Tang Zhi, in order to save their vegetables from being harmed by insects, they all bit the bullet and went to Song's house for help.

Song Yuyan wanted to tell them directly, but Tang Zhi held her back and said, "They are asking for you, but their attitude towards you is not much better than before, so their attitude is not sincerely asking for your help. You don't You don’t owe them anything, so there’s no need to be so great, because they won’t remember your kindness either!”

Song Yuyan didn't care about these things at all, but although she could get along well with Meng Shuituan, Bai Can, Du Yan and others, it was all based on the premise that they were not very familiar with Song Dalang's personality.In terms of how to change the neighbors' impression and attitude towards her, she is far inferior to Tang Zhi.

Tang Zhi was kind enough to help her, so she followed Tang Zhi's wishes and dealt with everyone coldly.

Everyone thought that they would all come to Song Yuyan in person to say hello, Song Dalang, who has always been unpopular, should tell them immediately about how to get rid of pests, but why Song Dalang still said "I don't understand what you are talking about" manner?

They also wanted to deal with Song Yuyan coldly, but this person was busy with bamboo and straw weaving every day, so he didn't take them to heart at all, and they immediately felt as if they had been hurt a ton... Gradually, some people couldn't hold on anymore, and raised Bring some eggs or other gifts to Song's house to "ask for advice with an open mind".

Song Yuyan said: "After all, this is the method I found out from the book, so I can't tell you for nothing. In this way, I don't want your eggs either. You only need to buy a few baskets from me, and I can give you a gift. .”

Song Yuyan didn't want to act like she had to beg her for help.Some people may not take it to heart, but those who are narrow-minded will feel that she is deliberately trying to embarrass them.Therefore, with the method of payment for both money and goods, both parties are equal. In this way, the other party will not feel ashamed, and Song Yuyan can also sell his products.

When the other party heard this, he was really relieved, and he didn't have that awkward and strong resistance when getting along with Song Yuyan.

Song Yuyan didn't say how many baskets he wanted to buy, so he thought about it and bought three, one basket, one bamboo basket, and a bamboo sieve.

Song Yuyan really kept his promise, and told him how to mash cucumber vines to extract juice and spray the vegetable field.

Song Yuyan wasn't worried that this person would tell the truth, after all, this was the secret recipe he "bought" with money, so when others saw that he was mysteriously refusing to reveal it, they felt very itchy, and couldn't help but come to Song Yuyan. up.

In this way, many people "bought" the secret recipe from Song Yuyan one after another.

Of course, as more and more people know this secret recipe, some people can't help but say it.Although this reduced Song Yuyan's income, she didn't really plan to make a fortune by selling prescriptions.

In addition, the Tang family also has Tang Dianshi who is concerned about the country and the people. After seeing that the method in the book really works, he recommended this method to the county magistrate.

The county magistrate saw what he said, so he looked through the agricultural books, and found that he couldn't find the method Song Yuyan said for a long time.He didn't have much patience either, thinking that if it was successful, it was his credit, and if it was not, it was Tang Haogen's responsibility. He had nothing to lose, so he promoted it when he went to the countryside to express condolences.

In this way, it is no secret that these methods are used to control pests.

Although few people would go out of their way to "buy" the secret recipe from Song Yuyan again, some vegetable farmers would come to their door and boast: "Oh, the method you said, Song Dalang, really works! Are these all from the books? Literacy! It seems that I need to study more, and I will also try to let my children learn a few words..."

Even though Song Yuyan was praised, she would not show a complacent expression. This appearance of not being shocked by honor or disgrace made many people feel good about her.

In addition, after Lin Yongming decided to deepen cooperation with her, she made a name for her everywhere. More and more people know about her straw and bamboo weaving, and the price of the finished products is higher than ordinary people's.All of a sudden, in Xingxianfang, there was a saying that her prodigal son turned back and turned back to the good.

As for the reason for repentance—although some people say that it was because Song Dalang dreamed that his deceased mother was very disappointed in her, so she decided to repent.But after witnessing the changes in how the Tang and Song families got along, everyone thought it was more likely that Miss Tang had changed Song Dalang.

So whenever the children in the family are disobedient, the neighbors will go to the Tang family to ask Tang Zhi for help: "Miss Tang, if you can really repent by scolding Song Dalang, I hope you can help me scold my child and make him obedient." some……"

Tang Zhi: "?"

When will she be able to curse people to have this effect, will it be said that she can cure all diseases by cursing people in the future?Why does she feel that the ideas of these neighbors are becoming more and more subdued--unconstrained, not knowing what to say?

For this reason, she would refuse righteously: "Auntie, what are you talking about? I am such a gentle and gentle person, how can I curse people! If the child is disobedient, just give him a good beating. If you need a cane, I will I can lend it to you."

The neighbor's aunt who has seen Tang Zhi teach Song Yuyan a lesson: "..."

Gentle and gentle?It's as if it's true!
