The strongest door-to-door son-in-law

Chapter 718
After finishing his birthday greetings, Fu Siheng took his birthday gift and respectfully held it in front of Fu Changhe: "My grandson got a calligraphy copybook by chance. I would like to ask grandpa to appreciate it."

Fu Changhe's eyes lit up when he heard these words on the calligraphy copybook.

Fu Changhe has only two major hobbies in his life, one is antique jade and the other is calligraphy and copybooks.

The servant took the gift box from Fu Siheng and opened it in front of Fu Changhe.

Lying in the box is a letter with a sense of time.

Fu Siheng raised his voice and said, "Grandpa, I accidentally discovered this letter in the interlayer of an ink landscape painting in the late Ming Dynasty. After identification by relevant experts, it should be a letter written by Kuai Xue Shi Qing."

Hearing the words "Quick Snow and Clear Tie", many guests showed shock on their faces.

As we all know, Kuai Xue Shi Qing Tie is a running calligraphy work created by Wang Xizhi, a calligrapher of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It is ink on paper and is now collected in the National Palace Museum in Taipei.

However, the one at the National Palace Museum in Taipei is not the original, but a copy. It is said that the original has been lost long ago.

The full text of "Quick Snow and Clear Tie" is 4 lines and 28 words.

It was written as a letter, and its content is the author's greetings to relatives and friends in a happy mood when the snow cleared.

Some of them are in regular or regular script, some flow and stop, some stop and flow, and they are full of unique rhythm.

His brushwork is round, vigorous and elegant, and no stroke is taken lightly, and every word expresses the leisurely and leisurely intention.Even if the center of gravity occasionally shifts from left to right, the overall situation remains even and stable, without losing the aesthetic feeling of balance.

"Kuaixue Shiqing Tie" is known as the "28 Li Zhu" and was called "the best Dharma book in the world" by the ancients. Together with Wang Xianzhi's "Mid-Autumn Tie" and Wang Xun's "Boyuan Tie", they were jointly called "Three Dharma Books" by Qianlong. Hope", and this post is listed first.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the letter Fu Siheng dedicated to Fu Changhe is really the original of Kuai Xue Shi Qing's letter, then it is no less precious than the preface to the Lanting Collection, and it can be called a priceless treasure.

The words "Quick snow and sunny time" made Fu Changhe a little excited and he quickly took the wooden box from the servant.

Looking at the ancient letters lying quietly in the wooden box, Fu Changhe's heart was beating fast.

Asking the servant to find gloves and put them on, Fu Changhe carefully took out the letter with his trembling right hand.

There are a lot of damage at the corners of the letter, but fortunately the writing is not damaged.

There are 28 words written in the letter: "Xizhi paused, and soon it was snowing and sunny, which was good. I wanted to be safe and good. But it didn't work out, so it was knotted. If the power was not enough, Wang Xizhi paused. Shanyin Zhanghou."

Mr. Fu was deeply attracted by this copybook with all his energy and energy, and even forgot that he was at a birthday banquet.

Fu Changhe's expression and behavior made Fu Siheng very proud and satisfied. He glanced at Fu Yuanshan and others, and then said: "Grandpa, after testing by a professional organization, the paper for this copybook is made of silkworm cocoons unique to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The paper, coupled with the verification of the age, should be the original of Kuai Xue Shi Qing’s post.”

After Fu Siheng finished speaking, the shock and surprise on Fu Changhe's face quickly faded, and finally became calm.

Fu Changhe put the letter back into the gift box, took off his gloves, sighed, and said with some regret: "The paper used for the letter is indeed silkworm cocoon paper, but it is not from the Eastern Jin Dynasty."

"The Eastern Jin Dynasty is more than 700 years old, so it is impossible that the cocoon paper does not show signs of oxidation. As for the font, it should have been copied by a calligrapher in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties." , even the hooks and picks don’t reveal their edge.”

"The emphasis is on the roundness and vigor of the strokes. The ups and downs and elasticity of the strokes and strokes are relatively gentle. The round strokes are mainly used to hide the front edge. The starting and ending of the strokes are even and stable. They may be light or heavy, fast or slow, and the strokes are lifted and pressed properly. , Calm and unhurried, with a calm demeanor and strong bones."

"The whole post looks graceful and elegant, round and charming. It may be in regular or regular script, or it may flow and stop, or it may stop and flow. No stroke is taken lightly, and no word fails to express the fluent and beautiful meaning."

"Although this copied copybook deliberately hides its edge, it still gives people a feeling of being overshadowed, and it does not have the unique character and free and easy connotation of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy."

Fu Changhe's comments are very professional. In popular words, Fu Changhe has reached the level of an enthusiast player in terms of calligraphy and copybooks.

Fu Changhe's words made all the proud look on Fu Siheng's face disappear. He asked unwillingly, "Grandpa, is this calligraphy really not the original copy of Kuai Xue Shiqing's calligraphy?"

Fu Changhe once again showed a loving smile on his face and said: "Although this copy of Kuai Xue Shi Qing's post was not made by Wang Youjun, it is of great collection value because of its sense of age. Siheng is interested."

Fu Siheng gave up now and couldn't help but lower his head. He knew that the old man was trying to save face for him.After all, giving away a fake at a birthday banquet is never a glorious thing.

After Fu Siheng withdrew in a depressed mood, Fu Siying came forward, holding a square wooden box in her hand. In the wooden box was a white jade-carved longevity peach.

Fu Siying brought the wooden box to Fu Changhe and said respectfully: "Grandpa, Siying's birthday gift is a white jade peach. I asked Master Mingzhe, a master in the jade carving world, to carve it."

The jade carving master Mingzhe was quite famous in northern Beijing and was Fu Changhe's favorite jade carving master.

The longevity peach symbolizes longevity. Fu Changhe showed a smile on his face, took the wooden box, took out the longevity peach, and looked at it carefully.

The longevity peach is not only engraved with vigorous and tall pine trees and cranes standing with their necks raised, but also has two poems inscribed on it: The crane counts a thousand years of life, and the pine tree lasts forever.

"The knife is very simple and expressive. It is indeed the hand of Master Mingzhe. Siying is thoughtful." Fu Changhe nodded slightly, with a satisfied expression on his face.

Seeing that the birthday gift she gave had pleased the old man, Fu Siying was very happy. When she left, she couldn't help but look at Fu Xueying with a proud and provocative look.

Fu Xueying naturally saw the expression on Fu Siying's face, and she felt really helpless.

In the Fu family, the old man's favorite person was Fu Xueying, which made Fu Siheng and Fu Siying jealous, so sometimes they would deliberately target her in front of the old man.

Fu Xueying knew it was time for her to appear, so she immediately took out a jade plate covered with red cloth from the table where birthday gifts were held, then walked up to Fu Changhe with the jade plate, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, Xueying also has one This jade carving is given to you, and I wish you happiness every day and a smile."

Seeing Fu Xueying coming forward, the smile on Fu Changhe's face grew stronger, and he said quickly: "Xueying, let me see what kind of birthday gift you have prepared for me."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the difference between Mr. Fu's affection for Xueying and Fu Siheng and Fu Siying can be seen immediately.

Fu Xueying walked to the table next to the old man, placed the jade plate in her hand on the table, and signaled the old man to remove the red cloth covering the jade plate.

Fu Changhe opened the red cloth with a smile and anticipation.
