Early the next morning, Xia Xun was on duty in the court, but Nan Feifei arrived at Yang's mansion, carrying a basket, as if he was a relative.
Lifting the cover, there were dozens of eggs and quail eggs in the basket, boxy, neatly stacked there, Xiao Di almost didn't believe her eyes, she thought these eggs and bird eggs were fake, tried to open one, egg whites and yolks flowed out of it, Xiao Di's eyes couldn't help but straighten: "Really, it's really real, there are really square bird eggs in the world" Peng Ziqi was also very curious, but she didn't believe that this egg was born like this, she picked up a square egg and looked at it carefully for a long time, before she said to Nan Feifei suspiciously: "This egg, how did you get it?"
Nan Feifei smiled proudly: "Hehe, the mountain people have their own clever plans, and it won't work if you say it." ” In fact, if Xia Xun is here, she can expose her so-called clever plan, this method is nothing at all, Nan Feifei is just to create a few square molds according to the approximate size of the egg in advance, and then soak the egg in vinegar as a whole, soak the eggshell soft, at this time the hand should be particularly skillful, carefully pick up the soft egg and buckle it into the mold, because it is squeezed by the mold, the soft ball-like egg can change its shape according to the shape of the mold, then pour some cold water on it to wash, and wait for the eggshell to become hard.
Naturally, it became a peculiar square egg.
Xia Xun heard Xiao Di make a bet with her yesterday, and he knew that Xiao Di would definitely lose, but he knew that Nan Feifei would not be too embarrassed by Xiao Di, and he didn't bother to make peace about the bet between the two little girls.
Xiao Di stared at the square eggs and quail eggs for a long time, and then said dejectedly: "I lost, what's the big deal about being your maid for half a month."
After muttering a few words, she couldn't help but say, "But you have to tell me how you made the egg into this shape." ” Nan Feifei grinned and said, "It's okay to tell you, I'll teach you in a while, and you will change this trick in the future."
I don't need you to really serve me, this girl has never been an eldest lady, she really wants someone to serve by her side, and she is not used to it, but you have to be polite to my brother, you take care of him more these days, and his legs and feet are not very dexterous. ” Xiao Di said in surprise: "Your brother" Nan Feifei said: "Actually, it's the brother of the Xie family, but Yufei is my sister, and her brother is naturally my brother."
Well, he's coming. ” Peng Ziqi and Xiao Di looked up together, and saw that the corner gate of the courtyard was opened, and an ox cart drove straight into the courtyard, the curtain of the car was lifted, Xie Yufei got out of the car, Steward Xiao stepped forward and put a tripod, Xie Lucian walked out of it, and got off the car with great difficulty with the help of Steward Xiao and Xie Yufei.
Steward Xiao said enthusiastically: "Gongzi Xie, Miss Xie, I have worked hard all the way, please drink tea in the hall first, and then let's talk slowly." ” Xie Lucian said with a smile: "Steward Xiao should not be polite, the appearance of the old lady and the old lady of the Yang family, I have to ask you to tell me in detail when I go back, so that I can draw the portrait of the second elder."
As for the Qixia and Niushou Shengjing pictures that are ready to be placed in the front hall and the back hall, you have to go to the scene to copy it, and only then can you start writing when Xie has a good idea in his heart. ” Steward Xiao smiled: "That's natural, Lao Xiao is sweating outside the door for painting, and everything will be done according to the son's instructions." ” Peng Ziqi suddenly said: "Xianggong said that he invited a painter who painted the portraits of the old lady and the old lady, and he was also responsible for the painting of the sixteen screens in our front and back halls, which is the young master of the Xie family."
Xie Yufei helped his brother walk out, looked up at Peng Ziqi and smiled sweetly, and blessed slightly: "Sister Peng, I'm sorry" There is a strange person in Jinling Mansion, it is said that he is a disciple of the re-descendant of Qiu Chuji, the head of Changchun Zidao, from Baiyun Temple in Beiping.
This strange man is exactly ninety years old this year, but he has a childish face, a bright spirit, and a very neat demeanor, not like an old man at all.
One of his disciples ran an antique shop in the local area, and the old gentleman was invited by the disciple to fulfill his filial piety, and at first no one knew that the old man had a special skill, but then it was the talkative old man who was chatting with a few customers in the shop, and at night the light was dim, and he asked someone to light the lamp, but the man had just lit the lamp, and accidentally knocked it out, and the old man pointed with his hand, and the candle was immediately lit again, which attracted the attention of others.
Under everyone's coaxing, the old man was helpless, and performed the ability to draw water with a bamboo basket, a bamboo basket that was obviously full of holes and gaps, and took it in his hand, he could scoop up a basket of water from the tank, and it would not leak, and the news spread, which attracted more and more people's attention.
The son is silent, and the strange force is confused.
Xie Lucian originally didn't believe this, but it was a few of his fox friends who heard that this antique shop had a painting of Wu Daozi and told him about it, so they came with great interest.
If the painting is genuine, it should be a painting left by Wu Daozi when he was a county lieutenant in Yanzhou, Shandong Province in the early days, because he had not yet been given the name Daoxuan by the emperor at that time, and the painting was signed by Yanzhou Lieutenant.
However, look at its landscape, the pen is only one or two, as if it has been answered, the folds of the characters in the painting are fluttering, the lines are strong, the sky is flying, the wall is full of wind, it has been quite meteorological.
Xie Lucian couldn't help but praise repeatedly: "Wonderful, no wonder people call it a strip of Ulva strips, this is Wu Daozi's true handiwork." ” The shopkeeper Mo Yan smiled and said: "Childe has good eyesight, this is indeed the true work of Wu Daozi, when the Yuan Dynasty Tuolei Khan invited Changchun Zi Zhenren to enter Beijing, and gave Changchun Hongdao Tongmi Zhenren, he gave a gift to the real person, and the name has just opened, which is the treasure of the town name that I specially borrowed from my master." ” Xie Lucian knew that such a painting was a priceless treasure, and he couldn't afford it with all his wealth, and he heard that the shopkeeper had borrowed it from his master, and even if he could afford it, he wouldn't sell it, so he had to be reluctant to appreciate it again and again, and then returned the original, and sighed: "Today, I can see the true works of the painting, and I really have no regrets about dying."
I heard that Lingshi Tongmisan is a disciple of the Changchunzi Immortal."
Mo Yan said: "Yes, to put it mildly, Mo and the master can be regarded as a fate."
Mo was frail and sickly when he was young, and he was carried by his father to recuperate in the Baiyun Temple, and he was fortunate to meet a teacher, who cured my illness and passed on a set of methods to strengthen my body.
In fact, Mo Yan didn't learn any great powers from his master, but he said that he was a teacher, a father for life, and it was a great merit for the teacher to save my life, and this master-apprentice love was always there.
As soon as I said this, someone hurried over, with two small hats in green clothes in front of him, like a wealthy family, followed by a middle-aged man, with extraordinary clothes and graceful bearing.
Xie Lucian heard on the side that this family encountered a strange thing, there was always a pop knocking sound on the door in the middle of the night, but when I opened the door, there was no one, the family was hairy, and I went to invite a Taoist priest to exorcise evil spirits at dawn, and the Taoist priest came to see, but he shook his head again and again, saying that he was shallow and could not drive away the ghosts, the family listened to it and was even more panicked, and under repeated begging, the Taoist said that this Mo Jiabao is now living in a strange person, the Tao is profound, and can drive away ghosts, so the master came to the door with a lot of money to beg.
Mo Yan felt displeased when he heard this, and said: "If your master is sincere, why don't you come in person, make some money, and want to drive my master to go and go out." ” "Hehe, don't worry, this family only has a hostess, so it is naturally inconvenient to come to the door in person."
With the voice, I saw an old man in a gray-blue Taoist robe with silver hair, snow-white beard, neat hands and feet, and a shimmering spirit, walking out from behind the shop.
The housekeeper listened and exclaimed: "The Taoist chief is really powerful, our lord left early, there are only old ladies and young ladies in the house, it is indeed not appropriate to show up, so the villain came forward to invite, and asked the old Taoist to help." ” The old Taoist said with a smile: "Your family is a good family, and the blessings are profound, so you shouldn't be disturbed by this evil ghost, so the old man will go with you." ” Everyone is curious, and Xie Lucian is no exception, and when he hears about such a strange thing, he can't help but go to see the excitement.
When I arrived at that house, I saw Zhu Geqihu, a rich and noble family.
Lao Dao didn't enter the door, only stood in front of the door, looked at the clouds, and sneered for a while: "What kind of ghost is my Tao, such a Taoist, I dare to come to the world to run rampant." ” He asked someone to bring a bowl of water, and took out a charm, looked at the door, stepped on the seven star steps, chanted words in his hand, and finally stretched out his hand and shook it, and the charm in his hand burned with a "boom", which caused the people to marvel at the onlookers.
When the spell burned to ashes and turned into a bowl, Lao Dao handed the bowl of water to the housekeeper and instructed: "Integrate this talisman water into the vat, take a jar of water to wash the door, wash it clean, and have its own six dings and six jia, four values of Gong Cao to guard, the evil demon outer way, and it is difficult to invade one step." ” The housekeeper thanked him again and again, and then asked someone to hold a plate of wealth to be served, and the old man waved his hand and smiled: "And when it really works, it will not be too late for you to thank you." ” This time, everyone in the audience believed that this Taoist priest was a man of the Tao, but Xie Lucian was skeptical.
The old man was about to leave, and suddenly saw Xie Lucicada, and couldn't help but sigh, walked up, looked him up and down, and said in surprise: "Heavenly Wenqu, how did it end up like this?"
Xie Lucian didn't believe that he was pretending to be a ghost, and heard him mention that Wenqu Xing went down to earth, which was the most praised and praised by his neighbors when he was a teenager, and he couldn't help but mourn in his heart, and turned around to leave.
Lao Dao shouted in the back: "The son and the old man have a fate, and the old man may be able to resolve the sadness of the son."
The old man wants to stay in the Mo family for a while, and says, if the son has any confusion, he can come here to find me. ” Xie Lucicada didn't hear it and walked faster.
Mo Yan quietly approached Lao Dao and said in a low voice: "Uncle Shi, will he take the bait?"
Lao Dao's face was kind and kind, and he had a childish face, and at this time he smiled gloomily, but he was full of resentment and ferocity: "Don't worry, when he hears that this family has really driven away the evil ghosts, he will come back, hum my Wan Songling whole person, if he wants his husband and wife to turn against each other, father and son to become enemies, it is also easy."
Not only do I want to make his family ruined, but I also want to make this brother and sister have a deep relationship in the past, and they will have a grudge in the future, so as to eliminate the hatred in my heart."
