Chapter 331 Painting
What is there for Yin Tianling to value about a drug store owner?
Yin Ziyue looked at Fu Yuehe and Miss Su Ying, whose temperament, appearance and manners were in no way inferior to those of the rich girls cultivated by their family heritage for hundreds of years, and remembered that they had inadvertently mentioned before that they were from the western region of the Huanyue Continent. She already had a specific guess in her mind.
If that's the case, it would seem more reasonable.
Because she knew what Yin Tianling was planning, Yin Ziyue regained her usual calmness. On the contrary, Yin Tianling, after some time had passed, couldn't hold back and came to her yard again.
On the surface, it was a repentance for his past behavior, and at the same time, it was a way of showing concern for his sister. In fact, it was a subtle hint to her that it was impolite to keep visiting her. As the saying goes, "too much courtesy is not a bad thing", she should occasionally bring some gifts to express her gratitude so as not to cause gossip.
Finally, he pretended to be very generous and magnanimous, and said frankly that the family treasury was open to her and the precious items inside could be withdrawn at will without his consent.
High-level monks naturally look down on those mundane things, but it is not impossible for the other two mortal women.
Yin Ziyue found it funny that he wanted to please Xu Feng but also wanted to hide it from her. Her brother really took great pains. A cultivator, even a low-level cultivator, was enough to make the future head of the Yin family flatter him.
But she would never have thought that her brother Yin Tianling had already become a cultivator, and she would never have thought that Xu Feng was not the low-level cultivator she thought he was, but a terrifying strong man who could replace the Huang family with just a word if he wanted to, and make them withdraw from Xiaxian Town.
……
One day, in Miss Suying's study, Xiao Ruoxue suddenly found two scrolls that she had never seen before in a wooden box in the corner of the bookshelf. Both scrolls were tied with three red ropes, which showed that the owner of the scrolls valued them very much, but also revealed that she didn't want others to check them casually.
"Huh? Is this also Sister Fu's work?" Li Xi saw it from the side and hurried over.
Because there were exquisite words and phrases written by Xu Feng on Fu Yuehe's paintings, the four girls were all very talented, and basically they would memorize them, copy them on paper after returning, and secretly appreciate and ponder them. Therefore, for Fu Yuehe's paintings that they had never seen before, the four girls were very interested in them as if they had discovered a treasure.
At this time, Fu Yuehe and Miss Su Ying were not in the study. Xiao Ruoxue thought about it and carefully put the painting back into the wooden box.
"Sister Xiao, why did you put it back? Open it and take a look!" Li Xi said, and quickly took out the scroll again.
"Xier, don't be rude. These two paintings are placed separately in a wooden box and tied with three red ropes. I think Sister Yuehe doesn't want others to check them at will. It's inappropriate for me to open the wooden box out of curiosity. Put it back quickly!" Xiao Ruoxue immediately dissuaded.
"It's okay. Sister Fu is not such a stingy person. Besides, the two sisters have already said that we can browse the books and paintings in this study at will without being polite." Li Xi was treated like a younger sister by the others, so she acted bolder.
She couldn't wait to untie the red string and continued, "At worst, we can be more careful and just take a look at it and put it away, making sure it doesn't get dirty or damaged."
The red string was untied, and even if Xiao Ruoxue wanted to stop it, it was too late. At this point, she no longer insisted, and she was also curious. What was so special about this painting that was stored alone?
Li Xi's white jade hands slowly unfolded the scroll.
"Huh? Isn't this..." Li Xi's eyes widened.
Xiao Ruoxue's eyes were also somewhat surprised. However, she was known as a talented woman after all, and she soon discovered something was wrong.
"This painting style doesn't seem like Yuehe's!" She looked at it carefully again.
"This is not Sister Yuehe's painting!" Xiao Ruoxue said with certainty. Everyone has their own painting style, lines, weight of brushstrokes, types and amounts of pigments used, etc., not to mention that it is empty without a single word.
There were footsteps outside the study, and Ji Yanshuang and Yin Ziyue walked in slowly.
Li Xi hurriedly trotted forward and showed the painting to the two of them.
"Sister Yin, here is your portrait. Look, it is painted with great care. Every strand of hair and wrinkle of the dress are clearly visible. I wonder how much effort the painter spent to complete this painting." Li Xi said carelessly.
