Chapter 219 They also want to marry...
At this time, a servant walked up to Huan's mother and whispered to her.
After hearing this, Huan's mother's face turned a little unhappy and she was about to say something.
"Madam, has something happened?" Su Yueyao asked softly when she saw that Huan's mother looked unhappy.
"Yueyao, the scholars over there are having a painting competition right now. Your uncle wants you to go over there. If you don't want to go, you don't have to go. I'll just ask the servants to push it off." Huan's mother said.
"Madam, I am also curious about what kind of chrysanthemum pictures everyone will draw. Let me go over and take a look!" Su Yueyao said with a smile.
Today was for her to paint and compose poetry. If she doesn't show off, how can the Huan family become high-profile? The Queen also wants to win over more literati through the Huan family!
She is the link in the middle, and she understands it. Even if Huan's mother is not so close to her today, she will still do it.
After Su Yueyao followed the servants and left, the other women at the female banquet immediately said, "Madam Huan, we also want to see the paintings created by the literati painters!"
"We are not in a hurry. Once they have finished their paintings, they will be displayed in the corridor. We can go and see them then. All the paintings will be signed." Huan's mother said with a smile.
"Mrs. Huan's arrangements are so thoughtful!"
The young women at the table were very happy when they heard this. If the literati in the House of Literature could marry one of them, it would be beneficial to their families.
When Su Yueyao arrived, all the gentlemen in the audience looked at her.
Huan Yanxi arrived at Su Yueyao's side immediately.
"If Miss Su doesn't like it, she doesn't have to participate." Huan Yanxi said again.
"Oh, it's different now that Yan Xi has a wife. He started protecting her before she even got married."
"Yan Xi didn't say so many words in the past few days, but today he came here just to show his concern for his future wife!"
"Ms. Su, we are classmates of Yan Xi, and I am from the Xin family of the teahouse."
"Ms. Su, I and Yan Xi have known each other since childhood. I am from the Lu family of Shifang."
"Ms. Su, I am..."
"..."
The scene was very lively for a moment. Su Yueyao said with a moment of embarrassment: "I'm curious about what the chrysanthemums you painted look like. Let's take a look."
When Su Yueyao saw Master Huan sitting in the seat of honor, she immediately bowed to him.
"Hello, Master Huan!"
Master Huan didn't expect Su Yueyao to salute him so respectfully when she saw him, and she immediately moved aside.
"Miss Su, there is no need to be so polite. Here are the chrysanthemums they painted. Let Yan Xi take you to have a look. Miss Su, see if you can draw a different chrysanthemum." Master Huan said expectantly.
"Okay! Let me see."
Huan Yanxi led Su Yueyao to the drawing table in front. Su Yueyao saw many pictures of chrysanthemums. Most of them were line drawings, and they were all real-life paintings of chrysanthemums.
But it can be seen that they are very skilled in using the brush, but they use very little color and hue, so the visual effect is not strong.
After reading it, Su Yueyao walked directly to the desk, spread out a piece of paper, picked up a pen and started drawing.
She planned to paint a picture of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the southern mountains.
When she thinks of chrysanthemum, the first person she thinks of is Tao Yuanming...
She would have to think carefully about the rest, and besides, what she was best at was artistic conception painting.
When everyone saw Su Yueyao pick up the brush and start painting, Master Huan was the first to walk behind her and watch her paint. As the painting was completed bit by bit, Master Huan's eyes were filled with surprise.
After the painting was finished, Su Yueyao took out a piece of paper and wrote: "I built my hut in a human world, but there is no noise of carriages and horses. I ask you how you can do that? My heart is far away and the place is secluded. I pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and see the southern mountains leisurely. The mountain air is beautiful at dusk, and the birds fly back and forth. There is a true meaning in this, but I have forgotten the words to explain it."
"Master Huan, I asked my master to write inscriptions on most of my previous paintings. How about you write the inscription on this one?" Su Yueyao said with a smile as she handed him the poem she had just written by Tao Yuanming.
"Okay!" Huan Yanxi took the poem with surprise in his eyes.
He picked up the pen and began to write on the painting.
Everyone looked at Huan Yanxi with envy. Such an artistic landscape painting, especially the chrysanthemums all over the mountains in front of the thatched cottage, matched the mood so well with the poem.
Miss Su is worthy of being a painter! They are ashamed of themselves.
I'm sure the Huan family will treasure this painting, and Huan Yanxi's calligraphy will be viewed by generations of descendants along with the painting.
To be honest, they were jealous. Now they understood why Master Huan asked His Majesty to grant them a marriage. They also wanted to marry such a talented woman who asked their husband to write an inscription for her...
Because of this painting, Su Yueyao became popular again in the literati circle. The literati who had seen her paintings wanted to ask for a painting, and those who had not seen it were curious about how good the painting was...
Afterwards, after seeing Su Yueyao's paintings, the ladies from noble families at the women's banquet didn't dare to say anything more. Such paintings were rare in Fengdu, and few people could draw such artistic conception.
Finally, Su Yueyao had dinner with everyone in the Huan family.
Mother Huan praised Su Yueyao without reservation.
"Madam, I was just clever in my use of colors. I still need to work harder on my painting skills." Su Yueyao said.
"Yueyao, don't be modest. You made me proud today. Those people who always laughed at me surrounded me and spoke politely to me when they left."
"Whatever Madam likes, I will draw a picture and have it sent over later." Su Yueyao said with a smile, very pleased with Huan's mother.
"Is it okay? Yueyao, you will be my biological daughter from now on, and Yanxi will be yours." Mother Huan said enthusiastically.
"..."
Actually, that’s not necessary.
"..."Mother, you haven't asked for it so many times, but this time you want my future wife's painting, and I don't have it yet! Huan Yanxi looked at his mother with a bad look.
Only then did Master Huan also look over.
Su Yueyao avoided him directly. She didn't want to paint for him now! When she got to the Literati Museum, she would bribe him with one day's work and three days' rest, and then she would consider painting for him.
"Ms. Su, I am Yan Xi's elder sister. You were great today. I like that..."
"Ms. Su, I am Yan Xi's second brother. If you draw a picture for me, I will give you a shop in the east of the city, okay?"
"Ah! Brother, don't squeeze me..."
"Ms. Su, I am..."
Huan Yanxi looked at his family's embarrassing behavior, pulled Su Yueyao and turned away.
Su Yueyao was pulled to follow Huan Yanxi.
"Yan Xi, we haven't finished talking yet! Why did you take Su Nujun away?"
"Wait a minute..."
Huan Yanxi heard the noise and immediately pulled Su Yueyao to run. Su Yueyao said to the people behind awkwardly: "Madam, Master, I will come again next time."
"Dear sisters and brothers, I'm leaving first..." Su Yueyao's voice was intermittent.
