Reborn Leisurely Landlord

Chapter 280 Zheng Banqiao VS Zheng Xie
"This is—" When Su Qingdai saw the calligraphy and painting, she couldn't help but walked over there.

Zeng Tai saw that she walked towards the calligraphy and painting as soon as she entered the door, and couldn't help laughing: "You really understand that thing, you can see it at a glance."

Su Qingdai couldn't help raising her eyebrows when she heard Zeng Tai's words: "I don't understand, I just saw this painting and wanted to come over to see if it's true or not, but hearing what you said, I think it's true Already!"

Zeng Tai couldn't help laughing, and was about to ask Su Qingdai why she fell in love with this painting as soon as she entered the door, when suddenly an old man came down from the next upstairs, looked at Su Qingdai and said with a smile: "Little baby has good eyesight, it seems that he has met an expert .”

Su Qingdai was taken aback for a moment, seeing Zeng Tai nodding towards her, she knew in her heart that this old man was Zeng Tai's grandfather, Commander Zeng.

How dare Su Qingdai call herself an expert, she just learned calligraphy and painting from Fu Qiutao for a few years, and learned some superficial skills of scouring antique calligraphy and painting from Yang Shucheng, which is just a little bit better than laymen.Don't dare to play tricks in front of experts, otherwise it will be ridiculous.

"Old man, you are joking. Qing Dai is ashamed of what experts say. Qing Dai just saw that the calligraphy and painting are full of grandeur and naturalness. She is attracted by the calligraphy and painting, so she wants to come over and have a look. In fact, I don't even know whose work the calligraphy and painting are. I still can't figure it out."

What Su Qingdai said was half true and half false, she was indeed attracted by the calligraphy and painting and wanted to find out, but she could tell who made the calligraphy and painting at a glance.It's very simple, she had seen a similar one in Yang Shucheng's pawnshop before, and it caused a lot of controversy at the time.

The old man smiled when he heard the words, nodded his head and said: "You are very humble, you little baby, then take a look and see if you can see something famous."

Su Qingdai originally wanted to hide her clumsiness, but the old man in front of her didn't intend to let Su Qingdai go. He asked this question while staring at her, which made Su Qingdai have to raise his spirits to deal with it.

"This... Qingdai has no research on antique calligraphy and painting, so she can only tell the origin of the calligraphy and painting, and cannot judge the authenticity of the calligraphy and painting." Su Qingdai considered the wording before speaking.

After hearing this, Old Master Zeng glanced at Su Qingdai with a smile: "It's okay, just say what you want."

After hearing this, Su Qingdai felt relieved, and said, "Let's talk about this painting first. The bamboo is elegant and elegant, and the thickness and density of the strokes are quite precise, and it also reveals a fresh and unique style. Let's talk about this word again. The four characters of seal script and regular script are different in size and uneven, but the brushstrokes are delicate and imposing."

Su Qingdai paused, and Mr. Zeng over there asked with a smile, "How is it?"

"No, it's tough, and it often calls itself 'four and a half books'. This should be one of the Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou. The works of Mr. Zheng Xie, whose poetry, calligraphy and painting are all unique and independent, are known as the three masterpieces!" Su Qingdai laughed. , then lowered his head and looked down, as expected, the word 'Zheng Xie' was inscribed at the bottom of the calligraphy and painting, and several seals were printed on it.

Grandpa Zeng's loud and powerful laughter resounded in the living room. He pointed at Su Qingdai and said with a smile, "You doll is a bit interesting, you clearly see clearly, but you still want to hide your clumsiness in front of the old man. This is not a good habit!"

Su Qingdai felt a little embarrassed when he said this: "I really didn't hide my clumsiness. I searched out all the things in my stomach, and then I made such a strange comment, which made the old man laugh."

Old Master Zeng smiled, and didn't linger on this topic, turned around and said to a guard standing beside him: "It's getting late, you go to the restaurant to help, let Rong Ma hurry up, wait for the guests to arrive, Let's go to the restaurant."

As soon as the guard heard Mr. Zeng's order, he immediately trotted into the restaurant beside him.

Grandpa Zeng greeted Su Qingdai and Jin Xiaoxiao to sit down. Only then did Su Qingdai notice that Yu Yang and Wu Yu hadn't arrived yet. Zeng Tai seemed to see her doubts, so he smiled and said, "Wu Yu's family is busy today, and there is no one to see them off." She, Yu Yang volunteered to pick her up."

Su Qingdai understood, and after sitting down, Jin Xiaoxiao leaned over abruptly, and asked softly, "Qingdai, who is Zheng Xie you mentioned just now?"

As soon as the words were spoken, although the voice was not loud, the sharp-eared old man Zeng had already heard, raised his head and looked at Jin Xiaoxiao with a half-smile, and then looked at Su Qingdai, as if waiting to see what Su Qingdai would answer.

Su Qingdai was very speechless, and looked at Jin Xiaoxiao, but she was blinking her eyes with an innocent look on her face, Su Qingdai sighed in her heart, and asked: "Don't let go of the green hills, the roots are in the broken rocks, thousands of mills Hit back hard, let the wind from east to west, north and south. Do you know who the author of this poem is?"

Without even thinking about it, Jin Xiaoxiao said, "Zheng Banqiao."

Su Qingdai resisted the urge to caress her forehead, and said depressedly: "Since you know it's Zheng Banqiao's poem, why are you asking me who Zheng Xie is?"

Jin Xiaoxiao, the second monk Zhengzhang, couldn't figure it out. Hearing what Su Qingdai said, he couldn't help but get angry: "But I only know Zheng Banqiao, and I don't know Zheng Xie!"

Everyone fell down, Su Qingdai only felt that a group of crows flew by in front of her, leaving a row of black lines.

Old Master Zeng also held back his laughter: "Zheng Banqiao's original name was Zheng Xie. Because his name was Banqiao, people often called him Mr. Banqiao."

After hearing this explanation, Jin Xiaoxiao suddenly realized, and couldn't help muttering: "It turns out that Zheng Banqiao is Zheng Xie. Really, the good Zheng Banqiao is not called Zheng Xie, but what Zheng Xie must be called, it's so ugly!"

Knowing Zheng Banqiao but not knowing Zheng Xie, she didn't feel ashamed at all, instead she complained that he chose a bad name, Su Qingdai couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Grandpa Zeng couldn't bear it any longer, pointed at Jin Xiaoxiao and smiled: "How can old man Jin have such a treasured granddaughter like you, you are really... Hahahaha."

Jin Xiaoxiao is also very innocent. Zheng Banqiao's good name is not called Zheng Xie. Banqiao is so easy to understand, and I can remember it.Zheng Xie?I still have showers!
But she didn't dare to say this, because she had already seen Su Qingdai and Zeng Tai looking at her with contempt, and she was very depressed.

Fortunately, Wu Yu and Yu Yang also arrived at this time. When Jin Xiaoxiao saw Wu Yu, she rushed towards her as if seeing a savior, but Wu Yu was taken aback.

"Wu Yu, Wu Yu, you're finally here! I'll ask you a question, do you know who Zheng Xie is?"

Jin Xiaoxiao thought evilly, she can't lose face alone, she has to drag someone into the water.

Wu Yu was still anxious about meeting Mr. Zeng when Jin Xiaoxiao grabbed his arm and asked him a question. Fortunately, the question was not difficult, so Wu Yu said without hesitation: "Zheng Xie, Zheng Banqiao, you can also come to this elementary school student's question." Test me, do you look down on me or something?"

This shocked Jin Xiaoxiao, and raised her eyebrows to look at Wu Yu resentfully: "Why do you all know, good sister, won't you pretend that you don't understand?"

Jin Xiaoxiao is playing tricks over there, and the nanny here has notified that the food is ready and ready to serve.

Several people hurriedly followed Mr. Zeng into the restaurant. Zeng's restaurant and kitchen are connected together, which is completely different from what Su Qingdai thought before. Zeng's restaurant does not look luxurious, but it is very clean and tidy.

The old man was busy inviting some people to sit down, and when he turned around, he noticed that Zeng Tai was still holding a white porcelain wine jar in his hand.

"Tai'er, what are you carrying in your hand? Hurry up and put down your things and prepare to eat!" Grandpa Zeng hurriedly ordered to his grandson.

The sharp-eyed guard over there hurried forward to take the white porcelain wine jar from Zeng Tai's hand, but Zeng Tai waved his hand and refused: "Grandpa, this is brought by Su Qingdai. She said it was a good thing, and Grandpa will definitely accept it." like."

"Oh? What a good thing?" Old Master Zeng became interested, glanced at Su Qingdai, and said with a smile, "Su Qingdai, right? Little girl, your Grandpa Zeng doesn't accept gifts from me. I can't get used to this problem." !"

Su Qingdai hurriedly stood up, took the jar from Zeng Tai's hand, and said with a smile: "The old man was joking, it's just a jar of old wine, I bring it here for fun, isn't it a gift? If you really want to give a gift, such a jar Po Jiu, the old man may not like it yet!"

As Su Qingdai said that, she looked towards Mr. Zeng. Sure enough, when Mr. Zeng heard that it was old wine, his eyes immediately lit up three points. He was obviously very interested in the old wine Su Qingdai said, staring at her hand The wine jar looked up.

"You little girl is too cunning. Get a new jar to hold the old wine. The old man is blind and my nose is not working. I can't tell what kind of wine is in it. It's okay, it's okay, this is to hang on to the old man. Don’t you have an appetite? Quickly open the jar and show the old man!”

After looking at it for a while, I guess he didn't see any tricks. Mr. Zeng lost his patience. He waved his hand and wanted to see the old wine that Su Qingdai was talking about. He seemed to rush forward if Su Qingdai didn't move.

Su Qingdai couldn't help laughing dumbfounded. She didn't expect that the old commander with such a majestic expression would have such a childish moment. Sure enough, the old saying is true, old child, old child, the older the person, the more There is a naughty child at heart.

According to Mr. Zeng's words, after Su Qingdai lifted the wooden stopper, within a short while, the whole restaurant was filled with a strong and mellow aroma of wine.

Just when the lid was lifted, Old Commander Zeng's expression changed. Looking at the jar of old wine, he looked up at Su Qingdai again. Seeing that there was no abnormal expression on Su Qingdai's expression, he hurriedly concealed the shock in his heart.

"It smells so good!" The other people smelled the wine, and they all showed intoxicated expressions, "Qing Dai, what kind of wine is this? Why is it so fragrant, it smells much better than the Moutai my grandfather drank!"

Su Qingdai smiled and said: "My wine can't compare to Moutai. Moutai is so expensive. My wine is only more than ten yuan per catty. It's just ordinary daughter red, but it's just a little older."

Those few people didn't understand wine, and they didn't suspect anything when they heard Su Qingdai say that it was Daughter Hong who cost more than ten yuan, but Mr. Zeng looked up at Su Qingdai after hearing this, without saying yes or no.
