[Red Mansion] Daughter-in-law's counterattack era

Virtue, appearance and merit, among the qualities required by women, among them, women's morality is ranked first.No matter how dissatisfied Jia Min was in her heart, she couldn't question Mrs. Li's virtue, not to mention that she was still a junior compared to Mrs. Li.What made Jia Min dissatisfied was Lin Ruhai's attitude: We are married, why not flatter my mother?It's just to make me happy, so why do you block me back with words!

Jia Min was aggrieved here, Lin Ruhai was also silent on the other side, the husband and wife were almost speechless, and just passed the night peacefully and uneventfully.

He also said that the eldest son Liu Li was there.Hangzhou is not far from Yangzhou.Prince Lian's Mansion sent Li Wan to Yangzhou and arrived in Hangzhou within a few days.

Since he is the concubine's father, if Mr. Mo is celebrating his birthday, the younger generation of the Mo family will naturally come together.Mo's is a common surname in Hangzhou, and there are more or less relatives among the neighbors.Liu Li is a son of the clan, not many people in the capital would discuss his seniority with him.But in Hangzhou, counting seniority from his mother, Liu Li was sad.

Because the concubine is the youngest daughter, although Liu Li is not very old, her seniority is not young.For several days, Liu Li was asked by people who could be his father: "Is Uncle Li's marriage settled? When will we get engaged?"

What's even more tragic is that the princess just watched with a smile on the side, and didn't interrupt.Liu Li was interested in Li Wan, but in the current situation, he couldn't speak out directly, so he had to be asked to make a smirk, not knowing what to say.For these relatives and friends, Liu Li had no choice but to uphold the attitude that I can't afford to provoke them, but I can afford to hide them, and just dodged aside if nothing happened.

During the birthday celebration, everyone had a lot of entertainment and banquets, but Liu Li was the most impatient with these people. Since he wanted to avoid laziness, he planned to be completely lazy.

Avoiding the crowd, Liu Li wandered around and came to the vicinity of Lingyin Temple.Lingyin Temple, also known as Yunlin Temple, is located in the northwest of West Lake in Hangzhou.It is not remote from the geographical point of view, but Lingyin Temple is located in the foothills of Lingyin Mountain between Feilai Peak and North Peak, and it looks a bit isolated from the world.And because it was once a temple built by Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, a different kind of scenery gradually developed around Lingyin Temple.Many literati and scholars barter here to find their favorite things.

"Hey, isn't this a Qiqiao diagram? Isn't this something for children?" Liu Li saw a pair of Qiqiao diagrams in the hands of an octogenarian. The carvings are exquisite and extraordinary.On the texture of the ivory, one pair is carved with patterns of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove, and the other is carved with patterns of the Four Gentlemen in Flowers, which look both elegant and beautiful.

"My son's words are wrong." The old man shook his white-bearded head and said, "'Seven artful pictures, the formula is five, the number is seven, and the changes can be as many as a thousand, and the body is similar to the shape. , changing at will. Covering the game with enough to break the boredom and break the silence, so the world likes it.' How can it be said that it is a child's thing." He looked at Liu Li: "Since the young master looks down on me Don’t stare at the old Tangqiao with staring eyes.” Saying that, the octogenarian was about to put his Tangqiao in the box, and was about to leave.

"Ai, ai, ai, the old man doesn't want it, he was too late to be abrupt." Liu Li hurriedly apologized.

Lingyin Temple is not the Ji Ya Zhai in the capital, and you can bargain for anything you like.If you can't produce something that makes the owner's heart move, he won't even exchange the item in his hand for you. Gold, silver and jewelry are really a thing here.

Liu Li watched his mother's actions these days, and knew that even if the girl's family got married, she would inevitably be attached to her mother's family.So I thought about building a good relationship with my "future brother-in-law" in advance.It's just that Li Wei is young, and the items that can be given away are really rare. Now seeing this pair of ingenious jigsaw puzzles, it's like falling asleep and meeting a pillow.

"I don't know what the old man wants to exchange for this pair of Qiqiaotu?" Liu Li asked tentatively.

"You are quite interesting, little brother." The old man stroked his long beard: "I don't want to cheat you, old man. These seven tricks are neither ancient objects nor works of famous masters, but they were carved by me in my spare time in my early years. It took a lot of hard work when I was doing it, and such ivory is somewhat rare. If the young master can come up with matching materials, it will not only be worthy of the value of this Qiqiao map, but also satisfy my interest in carving, this Qiqiao The picture can be exchanged with you."

Liu Li also had a good eye. Looking at the carved lines, he knew that the old man was humble.It's just that for a while, I can't think of any sculptor who looks like this.Liu Li was about to speak when the old man spoke again.

"Now, old man, I'm getting old, and I can't use much strength in my hands. I don't want to bring ordinary jade materials. It makes me unhappy."

"If you bring jade, it's a late-born negligence." Liu Li said with a smile: "I don't know if the old man is interested in ancient Shenmu?"

"Ancient sunken wood? Where is the ancient sunken wood?"

"It's an ancient sinking wood from Qiongzhou, do you think it's good?"

Hearing Liu Li's answer, the old man hesitated a bit: "My little brother's materials are so good, I'm afraid the old man can't afford the Qiqiaotu."

"The old man is a fairy-like character, how can he be troubled by worldly money. The late student is willing to exchange, because he thinks that the old man's things are worth the price. Besides, no matter how good the material is, it is not considered good if it is in the hands of a knowledgeable person. It has failed its value. Could it be that the old man is not willing to give it to the late student." No matter how serious Liu Li behaves, he always likes to show a bit of laughing and cursing.

"You little brother, you are so rude. Since you said that I don't want to part with the old man, then I really don't want to part with the old man. You quickly bring the ancient sinking wood. After an hour, the old man, I will not exchange it for you. It's gone." The white-haired old man also deliberately put on an angry look.

"You have to hurry up that night!" Liu Li summoned the attendants behind him and told them to go to the warehouse to get the materials. He only got the ancient sunken wood, and it happened to be put together with the box and cage.

Back home at night, Liu Li picked up the pair of Qiqiaotu and played with them again.Under the flickering light, he found the subtle inscription in the corner.

"Lushang Qingshan? I really haven't heard of this name before." Liu Li hesitated for a moment, and then called his servants over: "Find a box for this pair of Qiqiaotu and wrap it up nicely, and give it to someone in Yangzhou." Princess Yumin sent it. She said that the princess thought it looked good, so I gave it to her to hold the stubborn one."

At this moment, Liu Li was just giving it to Li Wan as a novelty, but he didn't expect that after a few years, the engraved objects marked with the inscription of Lu Lu Qingshan would suddenly become worth a hundred times and become priceless in the market.
