Chapter 136

Leaving Xu Zhikang's furniture factory, he went directly to old man Zhu's house.

Old man Zhu’s home is in the countryside, not the suburbs, but the countryside further outside the suburbs. The state of the village is no different from that of other rural areas. Most of the houses are scattered in every corner of the village without any rules. Very quiet.

From the outside, Old Man Zhu’s house looks no different from other small farmyards, but once you enter the gate, you can feel the unusualness of this small farmyard. The yard is very spacious and tidy. There are two rows of grapes. At this time, the luxuriant branches and leaves exude a strong fruit fragrance. In addition, there is a small flower garden with many peonies, but it is not the flowering season, so there are no flowers.

In addition, there are many flower pots on the window sills on the balcony, there are twenty or thirty pots in total, and they are scattered and dotted in the neat two-story building, which is particularly elegant.

The small building on the second floor is not too big, but it is very clean. There is not a speck of dust on the glass windows. It is obvious that someone often wipes it, which is not common in rural areas.Moreover, the ground of the yard is not made of cement, but is made of green bricks thrown upside down. This kind of ground is strong in deep water, and it is also strong enough to be comfortable to step on, and it will not slip like a concrete floor.

When entering the door, an old lady came out from the west room with a washbasin. After seeing Xu Jingxing and An Xin, she greeted her with a smile, "You are the little Xu that Lao Zhu talks about every day, right? Come in and sit down."

Xu Jingxing nodded quickly, "Grandma Liu is good."

An Xin also greeted her, and thoughtfully went up to take the basin from the old lady's hand, making the old lady so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.An Xin, this girl's temperament is just like this, she doesn't have a life, she speaks and does things seem to be straightforward, but she feels very comfortable, her words and deeds are just like that.No, the first time we met, old man Zhu's wife was conquered by a small gesture. Before he entered the door, he was already chatting about what to eat at noon.

Of course, An Xin is a girl who grew up in the countryside. She knows the living habits of the countryside very well and can speak well. If Yang Liu or Yu Hanqing came over, they would not know what to say even if they wanted to speak.

But Xu Jingxing, who also grew up in the countryside, admired An Xin's skill. He could only watch An Xin follow Mrs. Liu into the kitchen, then shrugged and followed Mrs. Zhu into the living room.

The furnishings and decorations in the living room are not like that of a rural family, nor that of a martial artist's family. Instead, it feels a bit like a scholarly family. There are a few calligraphy and paintings hanging in the room, all of which are small boutiques. Although the author who signed the name is not famous, the level But it is not bad, especially the small freehand brushwork welcome pine on the wall facing the door in the living room.

In addition to this huge welcoming pine, there are also many calligraphy and paintings in other corners, many, but not messy, dotted in different parts of the room, very harmonious.

"How is it?" Old man Zhu asked with a smile while making tea.

Xu Jingxing gave a thumbs up, "Uncle Zhu, you have a masterful handwriting, absolutely a masterful handwriting, and ordinary people don't have this level." He really wasn't just flattering, but telling the truth, because calligraphy and paintings don't look elegant just by hanging them on the wall , but there are a lot of particulars, why should the painting of the theme be hung, how high it should be hung, and how to match it, all of which are knowledge.

Otherwise, why is there a word called "arty"?

It is also hanging calligraphy and painting in the room, if it is hung well, it is called elegant, if it is not hung well, it is arty.It's a pity that there are many arty people, and most of them are sought after by ignorant people, but most of the real elegant people don't like to show off, such as old man Zhu.

Xu Jingxing had thought that old man Zhu was not a simple martial artist before, but he never thought that old man Zhu's house was so bookish. If he hadn't known about it beforehand, he would never have thought that this was the home of an old boxer, because there were hardly any people in the house. Elements related to kung fu.

Such a strong contrast really surprised him.

Seeing Xu Jingxing's praise, old man Zhu burst out laughing triumphantly.There are conditions for the old man not to show off. He doesn’t show off in front of the ignorant, because it doesn’t make any sense;

To be praised by a "superior" like Xu Jingxing, old man Zhu looked happier than a black bear who had eaten honey.

After three rounds of tea, Xu Jingxing tentatively asked, "Uncle Zhu, is your stone at home?"

"Yes, of course, come with me," the old man Zhu got up and waved, and turned into a room connected to the living room. It turned out to be a study room, and there were a lot of books in it, but this time he finally saw some kung fu. Factors aside, most of the books in the bookshelf are related to kung fu. At a glance, there are all kinds of books, old books and new books, and even some ancient costume books. Judging by the appearance, I still read it often.

There is a huge "Fist" character hanging directly above the large desk. The technique of the word is not very good, but it is full of momentum and looks particularly powerful. It should be written by the old man himself, not by Lian Jiazi. Can't come up with such an imposing word.

Other than that, there is not much decoration in the study room, but against the background of the huge "Fist" character, the whole room looks very quiet and quiet, but there is a sense of power that makes people stand awe-inspiring.

But the most eye-catching thing is the three-color Shoushan stone in the corner.

Sure enough, it was the same as what he saw in the photo, it was three-color, most of it was white, and the rest was red and yellow, mostly red, slightly less yellow, but the embellishment was very ingenious.

The moment he saw this stone, several design plans popped up in his mind. This material is simply a natural mountain material, and it would be a waste not to carve ornaments.But because of this, carving is more difficult, because there are many choices and strong carving ability, which means that it is easy to fall into the cliché. If such a good piece of material is carved into something common on the market in a satisfactory manner, it will be meaningless. There is no need for old man Zhu to specially invite him to hold the sword.

Old man Zhu didn't know that he had thought so much in a short while, and he showed off proudly: "How is it? Is it okay?"

Xu Jingxing grinned, "Not only is it passable, this stone is simply a gift from heaven. I don't even dare to use a knife because of it. If it is broken by you, I can't afford to sell myself."

"Hahaha, you don't need to pay, as long as you are my apprentice, let alone the carving is broken, I will give you this stone directly," old man Zhu laughed.
