Maybe because I am an outsider, the old man is too embarrassed to say anything.
However, I still felt quite embarrassed.
I thought it was just an ordinary flower.
Who would have thought that the old man would be so heartbroken?
I touched my nose and put the little baby down.
He was very clingy to me.
I put it down, still holding on to my pants.
Murong Yingxue came over, stuck out her tongue at me, and took Xiaobao's other hand.
The old man was immersed in writing his calligraphy again.
I looked over at the sofa.
Li Huifeng, the stupid young man, was still there watching TV.
I took Xiaobao and stood near the old man to watch him write calligraphy.
Went.
Speaking of calligraphy, I am actually quite interested in it.
When I was in the countryside, apart from being good at singing and fighting, calligraphy was what I was best at because my grandpa also liked this.
At that time, when there were weddings and weddings in our countryside, I was responsible for singing, and he was responsible for writing couplets for others.
Sometimes he was too busy, and I could help him.
I'm not bragging, I can really write calligraphy with elegant handwriting.
The old man’s calligraphy is also quite good, but in my opinion, there is still a gap between him and my grandfather.
After all, my grandfather has been writing calligraphy for decades.
Alas, it is a pity that I will never see him again.
Grandpa.
Thinking of this, my nose is really sore.
Since my grandfather passed away, my calligraphy skills have been neglected.
After I came to the county, I have never picked up my brush again.
I think I still have to practice when I have time, so as not to live up to my grandfather's expectations of me. .
Calligraphy fonts, regular script, running script, cursive script, and official script are relatively common, and most people who practice calligraphy also practice these fonts.
Among them, these fonts are divided into various subcategories.
My grandfather told me that what the old man of the Murong family now writes is running script.
The representative of running script is undoubtedly Wang Xizhi.
Nowadays, most people imitate his Preface to the Lanting Collection.
The cursive script is somewhere between regular script and cursive script.
It is not as round and square as regular script, nor as scrawled and difficult to read as cursive script.
It can be said to be extremely difficult to grasp.
It emphasizes simplicity, connection, circle and rotation.
The old man's handwriting is still quite smooth, but it is slightly lacking in roundness.
When the old man finished inking, he glanced at us onlookers with some pride and asked how we were doing.
Uncle Li and Murong Yingxue both said that the writing was very good, and they also said with a smile that no wonder so many people come to the old man to ask for calligraphy works.
In fact, I guess, some people come to ask for the old man’s calligraphy works just because they want to Just take it back to fill the scene.
If Murong Yingxue's family wasn't so awesome, they probably wouldn't be so popular.
I pretended to be amazed and nodded without saying anything.
Unexpectedly, the old man looked at me and said, "Young man, what do you think of my writing of these words?"
He wrote only five words, "There is righteousness in the world."
I held Xiaobao's hand and said, "The writing is very good.
It has all the characteristics of running script.

Grandpa, you can be said to be a master of running script."
At that person's house, I said something nice and I couldn't talk stupidly about his shortcomings.
I had already picked his favorite flowers.
If I said that he couldn't write well, it would be a slap in his face.
I guess Uncle Li could even drive me out.
The old man looked at me in surprise and said, "You still know calligraphy?"
Uncle Li, Murong Yingxue, her uncle and aunt also looked at me curiously.
Even Murong Yingxue blinked at me with clear eyes.
She probably didn't expect that I knew cursive script.
I touched my nose and said that I only knew a little bit about it.
I had learned it from my grandfather.
The old man raised his eyebrows, as if he was questioning me.
He asked me again: "Tell me, what are the characteristics of running script?"
I am also speechless.
Why do the Murong family like to test people so much?
However, I have already pretended to do it.
It is impossible to back down at this time.
If I can't explain the reason now.
They will definitely think that I am pretending to understand, and their impression of me will definitely not be good.
I said: "My grandpa told me that the characteristics of running script are simple, connected and rounded.
It can also be said that it is something that needs to be paid attention to when writing running script.
I don't know if I am right, haha."
The old man was even more surprised.
He looked at Uncle Li and the others and said, "I didn't expect that this young man is really an expert.
What Jian Lian Yuan Zhuan said is not something that a casual calligrapher can say."
He praised me so much, which made me a little embarrassed, but Murong Yingxue was very happy and stuck out her tongue at me happily, which made me want to laugh a little bit.
She looked like she had received an outstanding award.
It seemed like my boyfriend came to the house.
I was slightly relieved.
I was secretly glad that I didn't say anything wrong.
However, the old man seemed to have fallen in love with me, and said: "Young man, since you can tell so many things, you must also have some attainments in calligraphy.
How about showing off your skills?"
I almost couldn't stop laughing and crying, and said: "I'm just talking about it, in front of grandpa.
I'd better not show my shame."
To be honest, I am actually quite confident in my calligraphy.
Although it has been wasted in the past two years, the foundation from before is still there after all.
Even if I am a bit sloppy, it will definitely not be too bad, but this matter Well, it’s a bit difficult to handle.
If I write poorly, I will definitely be laughed at.
If I write too well, I will outshine the old man, and I’m afraid of embarrassing him.
Uncle Li and Murong Yingxue also helped me try.
When the old man saw what I said, he frowned and said: "It's good for a young man to have skills.
If you are young, you should show them if you have skills.
Don't follow old men like us and play tricks of hiding one's strength and biding one's time.
Young people are all about elegance."
At Masaki’s age, don’t be timid.”

His words spoke to my heart.
Being timid is indeed my fault.
The master is right.
As a young man, I shouldn't try to appear mature.
I'm just a calligrapher, with the character of an old man.
Even if I write better than him, I believe he won't care about it.
I said: "Then just write a few words."
Then I let go of Xiaobao's hand, walked to where the old man was standing, picked up the brush, spread out the paper and ink, and started writing.
Running script is about following your heart, and it doesn't require careful consideration like regular script.
Soon, I wrote two lines of poetry in a flash.
I didn’t think much about it at the time.
When I saw Murong Yingxue’s charming smile and the big red flower in Xiaobao’s hand, I wrote it out of nowhere.
"Famous flowers make the whole country happy.
They always make the king laugh."
This sentence comes from this sentence.
This poem comes from Li Bai's Qingping tune.
It just means that the flowers and the imperial concubine are so beautiful.
It made the emperor laugh when he looked at it.
As soon as I wrote it, when I looked up at Murong Yingxue, her face turned red with embarrassment. .
I also feel bad.
The people here are not simple people.
You can probably tell that this poem I wrote is for Murong Yingxue.
But I’ve already written it down, and I’m too embarrassed to crumple it into a ball.
The old man looked at my handwriting for a long time, then looked around us and exclaimed: "Okay, okay, okay, haha, compared with this young man, I, an old man, have practiced calligraphy like a dog over the years.
By the way, young man, what’s your name?”
I was immediately speechless.
The old man didn't even remember my name.
Just as she was about to speak, Murong Yingxue blushed and stamped her feet: "Grandpa, I told you, his name is Huang Qi, why can't you even remember my classmate's name?
Really?"
Uncle Li and the others laughed.
I was embarrassed and didn't dare to speak.
The old man had such a high status and I was just a young boy.
Although I was a classmate invited by Murong Yingxue to come home for dinner, it was normal for the old man not to keep me in mind.
I don't think I have what it takes to make him particularly interested.
The old man just laughed and said: "Huang Qi, Huang Qi's name is not bad.
Xing Tian dances with Qi, and his fierce ambition is always there.
The boy is very good at picking up the character Qi.
Well, he is also a good person.
He often makes the king laugh, haha."
Somewhat ambitious.”
I said, "I just wrote a few random sentences."
In fact, I really don't think of myself as a king and Murong Yingxue as a noble concubine.
Even if I did, I wouldn't dare to show it in front of them.
I never thought of casually writing a sentence to praise Murong Yingxue and Da.
Honghua's poem is what made the old man think so wildly.

I guess he must think that I am very ambitious now.
When he said these words, Murong Yingxue's uncle and aunt also looked at me in surprise, their eyes changed a little.
Uncle Li was very calm.
He knew me well and knew that I wanted to join the underworld. , so just give me a look that shows you understand.
Afterwards, the old man even carefully collected the poems I wrote.
This kind of treatment was enough to make me feel a little scared.
I said, "Grandpa, it's just a random poem.
You don't need to put it away, so as not to make others see the joke in the future."
He smiled and said, "The writing is so good, of course I have to keep it."
I was too embarrassed to say anything else.
At this time, the housekeeper also asked us to eat.
At the dinner table, Murong Yingxue was sitting next to me, shy.
What's v's name and where is it?
The topic just got out of hand.
I knew I couldn't hide it, so I simply told it, even though it might make them look down on me or even alienate me, as they didn't want Murong Yingxue to associate with a person like me, who was in the world.
However, this is the path I chose, and it is the path I must take now, and I don’t want to run away from this problem.
After Murong Yingxue's uncle heard this, his eyes turned out to be bad, and he said that you were a gangster.
I looked at Murong Yingxue, her face was a little nervous.
But I still nodded and said yes.
After saying that, I looked at the old man, fearing that he would show some unpleasant look, but simply, his eyes did not change, and he was still smiling.
He said: "It's a pity for a young man to be a gangster, but it's not bad at all. , Haha, with his character, he is suitable to take that path."
I was a little surprised and couldn't help but ask: "Grandpa, shouldn't you be disgusted with gangsters?"
