Chapter 7: West Seat(2/2)
"Xiao Yuan, go and call Uncle Fu, get the four treasures of the study, and ask him to take two pieces of rice paper over," Lin Qimeng ordered Xiao Yuan.
After a moment, the butler Fu walked in with rice paper and said, "My niece, rice paper has been delivered."
"I'll both my master and my two gentlemen spread the rice paper." Lin Qimeng said.
Lin Fu first put two of the four coffee tables together, then spread the rice paper in front of Changfeng and Dongfang Shuo, and said, "Please, two gentlemen!"
Changfeng and Dongfang Shuo picked up the pen in their hands at the same time and splashed ink. They saw Dongfang Shuo pointing upwards, but Changfeng was chaotic everywhere, making it impossible to figure out what the two of them were painting? In less than a stick of incense, both of them had completed their own work.
Dongfang Shuo said first: "I have already painted it below. Please take a look at Master Zou and Miss Lin!" Dongfang Shuo picked up the painting on the coffee table and pointed to Master Zou and Master Zou and said to Master Zou and Mr. Lin Qimeng.
Master Zou and Lin Qimeng stood up together to see the painting made by Mr. Dongfang. On the rice paper, there was a picture of arrow bamboo after the rain. The clenching and unremitting force after the rain was even more prominent and even more admirable. Lin Fu didn't understand anything, but only recognized it as arrow bamboo, and could not see any charm, so he went to see the painting made by Changfeng.
Lin Fu saw a picture of plum blossoms. With his eyesight, he could not see the proud and honesty of Han Mei. However, he saw that the coffee table under rice paper was already penetrated by the power of Changfeng, and a complete picture of plum blossoms was also shown on the coffee table. His superb internal skills could leave such deep traces on the hard iron-like nanmu. With just a thin and soft brush, how could Zhen Ping'er meet such an unknown master? And there are so few people in the world with such skills! What is his origin? No wonder Qi Meng, the girl, asked me to find out his origin.
Not being surprised by the world is the true nature of a person like him who has seen strong winds and waves. Although he was surprised, he did not show any surprise: "Master Zou, Miss, come and see, Mr. Changfeng is also good to draw!"
Lin Qimeng and Master Zou both turned their heads and looked at the other two coffee tables. A picture of frost and plum blossoms appeared on the paper. Lin Qimeng also saw the mystery behind the paper. Master Zou only saw a beautiful picture. As for whether Dongfang Shuo was seen on the side, only he knew. Changfeng himself also saw that he was complacent and took the painting out according to his usual painting habits, rashly showing his internal skills. Now he can only hope that those present did not find it. Don’t take the painting off the coffee table. This is also Changfeng himself lying to himself. Even if Miss Lin, Master Zou and Mr. Dongfang do not understand martial arts, because they had already tried their breathing as soon as they came in. Changfeng had just breathed ordinary people, and he could not be sure that they could not know martial arts. But how could Lin Fu not see this? How could a person with profound internal skills behave like he was?
"Mr. Changfeng's picture of frost and proud plum blossoms is indeed a masterpiece. The proud plum blossoms set off the pride of the plum tree to the fullest. It is such a masterpiece!" Dongfang Shuo praised loudly.
"Mr. Dongfang's arrow bamboo is not bad either, it is also a peerless classic work. Although there are no bamboo joints, it expresses the noble character of arrow bamboo that is desirable. How can Changfeng's inferior works be compared with Mr. Dongfang? Changfeng admits defeat in this battle!" Changfeng was eager to leave and did not want to continue to entangle.
"Master Zou, what do you think?" Lin Qimeng felt that both of them had reached the level of painting and had to make a judgment by herself, and I'm afraid she didn't know how to make a judgment.
In fact, Master Zou himself was also in trouble. Where did such two people come out? Almost all the talents in his heart are above him. Could it be that he is old or that there are talents in the generations of the country? It is really difficult to judge himself!
As I reached this point, I couldn't stop talking, so I said, "The two gentlemen are so skilled that I am willing to give up the disadvantage and really dare not make a rash judgment. Moreover, I was defeated by Miss Lin, so I should ask Miss Lin to judge by myself!" I kicked the ball to Lin Qimeng again.
Lin Qimeng secretly said, if you want to say such words, I'm afraid you will be like this in this life. I didn't even write the word "Shu" when I lost to myself last time. This time I admitted that I couldn't do it anymore and finally lowered my noble self-esteem. You transferred the ball to me and you were watching a joke next to me. If I don't give them an answer today, I'm afraid even I will lose face. Changfeng must be left behind. Because of Zhen Ping'er, he has already thought about it. She wants to figure it out. Besides, even if I don't hire him, Zhen Ping'er is sick again now. This matter must be with him.
Guan, and Dongfang Shuo is also a mysterious person. He seems to be following Changfeng and Zhen Ping'er. If he doesn't leave, if he secretly does not benefit the mansion, it will definitely be very difficult to guard against. This is really a dilemma. Lin Qimeng quickly turned around in his mind and said, "Since the ability of the two gentlemen is difficult to distinguish, and the little girl is also very shallow in her knowledge, and it is difficult to judge for a while. So, you two gentlemen will be hired together. This Western Conference will be changed to the East Conference. Mr. Dongfang will be the East Conference, and Mr. Changfeng will be the West Conference. Do you think it is okay?"
"Dongfang Shuo has no objection!" Dongfang Shuo said in front of Changfeng without knowing what An's heart was.
Changfeng was still hesitating. What exactly did Zhen Ping'er want to do? He tricked herself into this position as a seat, or had another intention? Now, the lady of the Lin family not only did not drive him out, but was willing to hire him as a seat. Do you agree or not? She had no enemies when she first entered the world, and she would not have any harm in killing her. It doesn't matter if she agreed. At least she had a place to live and no longer had to worry about three meals a day.
"Mr. Changfeng seems to be a little hesitant. Is the betrothal fee issued by our government not high enough? As long as the teacher speaks, as long as the Lin government can do it, it will definitely do it for the teacher!" Lin Qimeng was afraid that Changfeng would not agree, so Zhen Ping'er would have to follow him, otherwise Zhen Ping'er's identity would be exposed. If Changfeng is a money-loving person, he might as well give more money. As long as he keeps it, everything else can be discussed in the long run.
"No, Miss Lin has a misunderstanding. I just feel that she is not knowledgeable and cannot take on this responsibility!" Changfeng said that it is not true. With his current age, he may be younger than Lin Qimeng, and his knowledge may be inferior to her. If something goes wrong, how can he teach her?
"You all have seen the talent of your husband just now. Why can't you be Qimeng's teacher?" Lin Qimeng asked back.
"Mr. Dongfang deliberately asked me. In fact, Miss Lin could only hire Mr. Dongfang alone. Am I redundant? Or is the lady who invited me, the book boy, and I want to take my leave first." Changfeng had no choice but to make excuses for himself.
"No, you think where is the Lin Mansion? Since you have been attracted by the Lin Mansion, you have no choice." The butler Lin Fu suddenly interrupted and threatened. He also understood Lin Qimeng's concern, and he didn't want Zhen Ping'er to follow Changfeng, let alone Zhen Ping'er is still sick now!
This is really a domineering person. Changfeng suddenly didn't know how to speak. The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became tense and everyone became restrained. Master Zou really didn't even dare to speak out, for fear that he would not be inconsistent with his words for a while. It would not matter if he quarreled, but he would probably suffer the fish when he started.
"Miss Lin, does the Lin family really have such rules?" Changfeng calmly said to the man who could make decisions.
"It was not originally, but now, because Butler Fu is my uncle, even Qi Meng has to listen to what he said, so the Lin Mansion has temporarily added such a rule." Lin Qimeng said lightly that as long as he can keep people, even if he is strong, Lin Qimeng will do whatever he wants.
Changfeng knew that he would either stay or force himself to break out, but what should Zhen Ping'er do? Could it be that their goal was Zhen Ping'er, and the purpose was to keep Zhen Ping'er, but now Zhen Ping'er has fallen into their hands, what is the purpose of keeping me? But Zhen Ping'er should not know them, and when he came, he would also inquire about the path. The Lin Mansion should not be her enemy. What other reasons are there? Should I keep it or not?
"What are Mr. Changfeng hesitating?" Lin Qimeng had returned to her original state at this time.
They met by chance and saved her twice. They didn't care about saving her again. Changfeng thought that the Lin family had detained Zhen Ping'er, so they left it before making plans: "Since Miss Lin doesn't dislike her meager virtue, she won't insist on staying."
"Okay, Mr. Changfeng is still a cheerful person. I will hold a banquet for the two gentlemen later. If you have any need to go back to get it, please tell Lin Fu to send someone to help you get it. You can rest here now, or ask the butler to take you to visit the environment. Since we are already a family, you can order whatever you want in the mansion." Lin Qimeng said and left, leaving Lin Fu and the maid left!
"Since I have promised to stay, my book boy should let her come out!" Changfeng stopped Lin Qimeng, who was about to step out of the door, said anxiously.
"Sir, don't be too anxious. I think your book boy is quite smart. You are helping me organize books in my study. I will let him see you later." Lin Qimeng lied without blinking. She also knew that this was a temporary solution. After a long time, she would always let Changfeng know. It is best to stabilize Changfeng first. Lying is the only way.
"Oh." Changfeng thought to himself that this girl was really a ghost. She was so quick to coax the lady's trust. If we say that the Lin Mansion is really a good place for her, she would leave quietly tomorrow. It would be fine if this girl was worried. It was never the same way for her to follow her.
Time passed by minute by minute. Changfeng didn't want to talk to Dongfang Shuo, but Dongfang Shuo just looked for a topic to talk to him. He asked, "Who is Mr. Changfeng?" He asked, "Why did Mr. Changfeng leave without saying a word in the market? Does he not believe what he said?" Changfeng was annoyed by his question. If he answered, he was afraid that the other party would catch the topic and would be too poor to deal with it. If he didn't answer, it was reasonable and not suitable. He would be working together soon. He could not meet and say a word without saying a word! He was in trouble at the moment, so he could only remain silent.
Fortunately, Dongfang Shuo thought it was annoying enough at this time, so he stopped asking questions!
