Chapter 37
Ji Qingcheng then talked about Wei Xiyun's matter, "If she asks me about nothing else, it's your fault."

Was Wei Xiyun very angry at him again?Wei Xizhao laughed at first, and then realized that he had dragged him into the water, and Wei Xiyun was not sure how to curse himself at this time.Fortunately, the confrontation with Wei Xiyun is doomed, and she is not afraid of people intensifying the conflict. If someone else in the house is changed, she really can't bear it.After pondering for a moment, he asked, "When will Lord Hou leave Dragon City? It would be more appropriate to have a deadline."

"Dragon City is mixed with fish and dragons, and there are still a lot of right and wrong. My return to Beijing is still far away. Therefore..." Ji Qingcheng got up and took something, and handed it to Wei Xizhao, "There is something I want to trouble you to try."

It was a scroll, unfolded to a square of two feet, depicting the scenery of lakes and mountains.

The scenery is from near to far.A few branches of peach blossoms protrude obliquely from the nearby lake, and the peach blossoms fall little by little with the wind. The surface of the lake ripples lightly, reflecting the reflection of the petals; The fog in the mountains is thicker, and the green trees and red flowers are faintly visible.

It can clearly be a bright and pleasant spring scenery, but the more you look at it, the more desolate it becomes. The bright color of the peach blossoms and the figure on the boat are the finishing touches to this desolation.

Painting is born from the heart.If it weren't for the bleak mood of the painter, it would be almost impossible to make the spring scene into such a charm.

After seeing the painting, Wei Xizhao estimated the age of the painting through the ink marks. It was about ten years ago. Where did Ji Qingcheng get it?What is the purpose of showing it to yourself?
She looked up at him.

Ji Qingcheng asked: "If you make this painting into embroidery, would it be difficult for you?"

Although many kinds of stitches are required, and embroidery thread is difficult to find, but... Wei Xizhao said truthfully: "Anyone who is good at embroidery can embroider."

Ji Qingcheng asked again: "Leaving Beijing after the New Year's Day, wandering to the south and then to Longcheng, I also met someone who is good at embroidery. The scene can be embroidered, but there is no artistic conception in the painting. Why?"

It is difficult for you to force others, Wei Xizhao murmured in his heart when he asked the question knowingly.Most of the embroideries take the meaning of beauty, elegance or auspiciousness, but this picture is doing the opposite. Those who don't know it may deliberately make the picture vivid even if they can comprehend it.Thinking about it, she couldn't say it, so she asked bluntly: "Master Hou means..."

"I saw the landscape screen you embroidered in the study in Fuzhong. Mr. Wei said that it was painted and embroidered by you yourself. It is very suitable for me."

Wei Xizhao thought about it, the screen he mentioned should have been embroidered when he was ten years old, his father liked it and ordered someone to send it to the study.No wonder he made a fuss about embroidery after he entered the mansion. It turned out that he wanted to embroider this picture early in the morning.He just said that the time to return to Beijing is still far away, and his father will go to war in a while, if he pushes back and offends him, it will be of no benefit.

Thinking of this, she smiled and said: "So, I am willing to give it a try. I just don't understand, since Lord Hou has this painting, why does he need an embroidery?"

Ji Qingcheng explained: "The embroidery in this picture was originally my father's favorite thing in the study. A few years ago, the embroidery was burned, and my father still regrets it. This is why I have this intention. And this painting is My father copied it in his early years."

"The embroidery was burned..." Wei Xizhao repeated this sentence unconsciously, because he had doubts in his heart, he stared at him with a smile in his bright eyes.

Ji Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, and there was a bit of embarrassment in his smile, "It's really not a good thing for women to be smart." The embroidery was indeed destroyed by his mischief when he was a child. He set fire to his father's study, embroidery and many other things. The ancient books were all burned.

It was rare to see him like this.Wei Xizhao smiled with eyebrows crooked, "If you talk too much, you will lose your sense of proportion. I hope Lord Hou is not to blame." Then he took the scroll in his hand, "After returning to the room, I will start to prepare, and I will do my best."

"Thank you." Ji Qingcheng got up and went out to see him off in person.

Shen Xing waited outside the door with an anxious face. Seeing Wei Xizhao going out, he greeted him, glanced at Ji Qingcheng, and hesitated to speak.

"Master Hou stay here." Wei Xizhao withdrew salutingly, and hurriedly asked Shen Xing outside the gate, "What's wrong?"

Shen Xing said: "Mingyan is neither light nor heavy. He rummaged around in your room and scattered dozens of pearls in the box, making them all over the place. Luo Yue and Yang's mother said a few words about her, she So I don't agree, the three of us are arguing in the room."

Wei Xizhao never thought about what to do with those pearls, so he kept them in the jewelry box.Shen Xing didn't mention this, she almost forgot.With a twinkle in his eyes, he asked: "Those pearls, do you still remember the number?"

Shen Xing immediately replied: "32."

"Did you mention anything about Mingyan?"

Shen Xing just laughed, "Luoyue and Mama Yang don't know that the jewelry doesn't belong to them; as for the servants, they haven't spoken to Mingyan yet."

"That's good."

After returning to Linglong Pavilion and entering the dormitory, the three arguing people stopped talking, but they were all unhappy.

Wei Xizhao looked down at the pearls scattered on the ground, and sighed: "It's been a while, and I have the mind to bicker, but I don't have the mind to pick things up. You are becoming more and more sensible."

Luoyue and Yang's mother didn't talk to each other... Mingyan dropped the thing, but Mingyan ordered them to pick it up, why?
But Ming Yan said: "The servant asked Luoyue and Mama Yang to help pick it up, but they only focused on accusing the servant of stealing the lady's things, and refused to move them here."

"Luoyue, didn't I ask you to help Fenglan dry the clothes? Why are you arguing with people here?" Wei Xizhao waved his hand, "Hurry up."

Luo Yue responded with a smile and went out.

Wei Xizhao looked at Mama Yang again, "Although you live in my room, you still help your wife take care of the inner house on weekdays, why are you so free today?"

Mama Yang immediately understood, and laughed quickly: "Miss said yes, the servants will go now, and they will go here."

In the end, Wei Xizhao said to Ming Yan: "Since you dropped the thing, you should take the trouble to pick it up. I remember it was 33 pieces, so don't carelessly leave them behind."

Ming Yan smiled and said yes, but then asked: "Miss, can't this servant ask for help?"

Is it because she is born lazy, or does she think that she can sit on an equal footing with him, and that all the servants in the room are under her command?Wei Xizhao showed a bit of indifference between his eyebrows, "What do you think? When you get rewards on weekdays, do you also ask someone to help you spend them?"
