[Rebirth] Talking Fox

Chapter 7 Selling Paintings

Before dawn, You Qing and Bai Li got up early, ate breakfast, packed up and prepared to go out.The two of them didn't bring many things, only seven or eight scrolls, which were tied up with linen, and Bai Li snatched them and carried them on his shoulders.

You Qing usually recites it by himself and is not used to ordering others around, so he is not used to it, but Bai Lifei said that this is what his book boy should do, but he had no choice but to let him go. fight.

After Bai Li snatched the scroll, he smiled happily and stood next to You Qing, talking all the way.You Qing saw him chattering happily, and then recalled how he squatted in his yard the first day and couldn't complete half a sentence, so he couldn't help feeling deeply, and smiled: "I thought you couldn't speak, so you That's all I can say."

Bai Li has been with him for so many days, and the bewilderment he felt when we first met has long since disappeared, and he doesn't care about his jokes, with a smile on his slanted eyebrows and eyes: "Who said I can't?" Speak! I'm not dumb!"

"Then why didn't you finish half a sentence when I first met you?"

"..." Bai Li was taken aback for a moment, then smiled with lowered eyes, "I don't know, I don't remember."

You Qing looked at him and smiled, pointing to the stream next to him: "If you are thirsty, go and drink some water."

Bai Li chattered for a long time, and his mouth was indeed a little dry, so he ran over to squat by the stream and took a few sips of water with a smile. After drinking, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve and turned around and shouted: "Ah Qing, do you want to drink?" ?”

"I'm not thirsty." You Qing walked over and picked up the hem of his gown, "Why don't you be careful, it's all wet."

"Oh!" Bai Li obediently took two steps back and twisted the hem of his clothes.

The two soon arrived in town and went straight to a tailor shop on the corner of the street.Although You Qing rarely buys new clothes, he always comes to this store whenever he buys new clothes, because the clothes here are durable, simple in style and inexpensive.

He didn't come here many times, but because of his good looks and extraordinary temperament, he is a well-known handsome scholar in this area, so the boss has a deep impression on him, and now that he has won the Juren again, the boss greets him even more It's hot.

"Today I'm here to buy clothes for my brother." You Qing didn't like to exchange pleasantries, he just smiled politely, and only when he turned his head to look at Bai Li did a few traces of a real smile come to his eyes.

Bai Li heard that he called himself a brother, although he felt a little regretful, but he was much closer than the book boy, he squinted his eyes and smiled, walked up to the boss and raised his arms.

The boss was taken aback by his flailing gestures, he calmed down and said with a smile: "Little brother, what are you doing?"

"Measure the size!" Bai Li blinked at him.

"What's the use of measuring the size?" You Qing curled up his mouth and pressed his arms down, "Just stand up."

The boss smiled and took a tape measure to roughly draw on him, and asked, "What style do you want, little brother?"

Bai Li smiled at him: "Same as Ah Qing!"

Hearing his tone, the boss knew that the two of them were very close, so he couldn't help being a little surprised, subconsciously looked at You Qing, turned around and took two simple and elegant moon-white gowns.

Bai Li looked at You Qing, saw him nodding his head slightly, hurriedly took off his clothes excitedly, picked up a new dress and put it on, turned around and asked, "Ah Qing, do you look good?"

The corner of the boss's mouth twitched: What's so good about this...

You Qing nodded: "Not bad."

Bai Li was overjoyed, and quickly took off his clothes, grabbed another one and put it on: "What about this one? Does it look good?"

The corner of the boss's mouth twitched wildly: This is a clothing store for ordinary people, not for high-ranking officials and nobles. It is designed to be durable. Why do you care so much about whether it looks good or not?

You Qing was very patient. Although there was no difference between the two wearings and the previous old clothes, after all, the person who wore the clothes was good-looking, so he nodded again: "Yeah."

Bai Li leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Ah Qing, how much silver do you carry with you, is buying two enough?"

The hot air came from the ear, penetrated into the cochlea, mixed with the fragrance of the air, and You Qing's mind fluttered for no reason. He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at him sideways.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Bai Li blinked and looked at him, and called out in doubt, "Ah Qing?"

You Qing quickly regained consciousness: "Huh?"

Bai Li looked sideways at the boss arranging the clothes hanging on the wall, but didn't pay attention to this side, so he raised his hand and twirled his fingers in front of You Qing, and lowered his voice a little bit: "Is it enough?"

You Qing couldn't help laughing at his little movements, nodded and took out the purse from his sleeve and put it in his hand: "Don't worry, it's enough."

After buying two long gowns and getting everything inside and out, Bai Li felt that You Qing was very kind to him, and he was very happy, but when he thought about going to the capital, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Think of a way to do it.

When he lives with You Qing on weekdays, he can speak well and have a playful smile, but once he encounters this kind of thing related to the future of the two of them, he returns to the stupid look when he first met, walking with thoughts, and almost let the stone give him a hand. stumble.

You Qingyan quickly pulled him back, feeling that his stupid problem had started again without warning, and couldn't help feeling sorry for him. Seeing that there were stone steps by the side of the road, he raised his hand to touch his head, and said in a warm voice: "Okay, let's not go, just rest here."

Bai Li quickly took off the package on his back, and he and You Qing took out the scroll and put it on the ground.While spreading out the picture scroll, he comforted himself: the general examination will be several months later, and the palace examination will take a while later, so he can slowly think of a way.

After thinking about it like this, I felt better again, so I focused on the painting, glanced casually, and my eyeballs almost fell out of shock: "Huh?!"

"Huh?" You Qing followed his gaze, smiled, sat down on the stone steps behind him with his knees bent, and turned the painting inside, "This was painted recently."

Bai Li squatted down slowly, staring at the portrait without blinking, with a look of surprise and joy on his face, he almost stopped breathing.

In the painting, a mountain range is outlined with a few brush strokes. It looks exactly like the Smoky Mountain. At the foot of the mountain, there is a snow-white silver fox whose fur is soaked by the downpour of rain. On the top of the head, the head is slightly tilted, and the slanting eyes seem to be looking up at the sky.

The fox in this painting is exactly Bai Li. Although it is a nine-tailed fox, in the eyes of ordinary people, only one tail can be seen.At that time, he didn't put the fox tail on his head to avoid the rain, but was waiting in fear to hit the three known thunderbolts.

He was obviously very scared, but he didn't dare to disobey God's will, so he could only watch and wait there, even though he didn't understand why he had to suffer a catastrophe, but in front of the gods, how could he have the right to speak to the Ququ fox demon?

Thinking of those injustices, Bai Li felt a little resentful, but seeing You Qing draw himself lifelike, even though he was embarrassed, he couldn't help but be filled with joy, the smile in his eyes was truly bright.

You Qing usually likes to draw the things he likes when he sees them, so each of his paintings is extremely vivid.Looking at his miserable appearance in the painting, Bai Li couldn't help but burst out laughing.

You Qing looked at the expression on his face, and was a little speechless: "This little fox is soaking in the rain, it looks so pitiful, but you are lucky to laugh like this."

Bai Li bit his lip to stop his smile: "Who made him so embarrassed, I just want to laugh."

"You laugh at its embarrassment, fearing that it will laugh at you for not being smarter than it."

"How am I not as smart as him?" Bai Li blurted out and retorted, then he was taken aback, isn't this the same person, what's the comparison... Thinking about it, he lowered his head and laughed again.

"It also knows how to put its tail on its head. It's very clever." You Qing patted on the stone steps next to him, "If you don't want to sit, you have to squat. I'm not happy if you say you're stupid."

Bai Li moved his butt on the spot: "I just like to squat!"

You Qing has long been used to his preference, so he didn't say anything more, just smiled gently, looked at the portrait for a while, and said: "This fox runs very fast, and he can see it as soon as he blinks his eyes." Gone."

Bai Li rolled his eyes and looked at the sky: that didn't mean he ran away, he escaped the catastrophe and let the elders stealthily carry him back, heh...

"This painting is so beautiful!" Suddenly a soft voice came to my ears.

Bai Li looked up and saw a well-dressed girl, standing next to a maid wearing a bun, and a carriage parked behind her, she must be a lady from a rich family, she was shocked immediately: "Do you want to buy a painting?" ?”

The girl raised her eyelashes to look at him, then shifted her eyes to look at You Qing, knelt down and covered her blushing face by flipping through the portraits, feeling a little annoyed: Why are both of them so handsome? ?Really annoying!

Bai Li looked at him suspiciously: "Girl, do you want to buy a painting? Which one do you like?"

The girl glanced up again, bit her lip and hesitated for a long time before she said, "Which one of you is Young Master You?"

"Xiaosheng is." You Qing nodded slightly at him and smiled, "Which painting did you fancy?"

As soon as the girl heard what he said, she looked at him with burning eyes: "So you are Mr. You!"

You Qing was a little slow to react to her meaningful eyes, but responded with a light smile: "Yes."

The girl began to look at You Qing more blatantly, looking at the picture scroll with two eyes, and then looking at it again.

Seeing that the girl didn't answer his question for a long time, Bai Li's eyes were only on You Qing's body, and he felt depressed all of a sudden.Although he knew that there were many young girls who fell in love with You Qing, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he still couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

Bai Li thought for a long time but couldn't remember who this girl was from, and thought that she would not have anything to do with You Qing in the future, and when he was about to sigh secretly and decide to relax, an alarm bell suddenly rang in his mind.

wrong!Something is different!He had never gone out with You Qing to buy clothes before, let alone sat on the side of the road with him to sell calligraphy and paintings.No wonder when You Qing said that he wanted to sell calligraphy and paintings to save money, he felt that things happened too fast and suddenly, so it turned out that it was indeed ahead of time.

Originally, You Qing had to wait a few days before he would come out to sell calligraphy and paintings, but now because he wanted to buy clothes for him, he moved a few days earlier.I haven't seen this girl before, but I met this time, so I can't guarantee what will happen next!

Thinking of this, Bai Li immediately became anxious. He had witnessed You Qing marry again and again, so he automatically became hostile to any woman who tried to get close to You Qing, and he couldn't help but look at this girl. He put on a bit of precaution, wishing she could buy it and leave as soon as possible.

Although You Qing was a little slow to respond to the woman's thoughts, she couldn't help but feel a little displeased after being stared at for so long, and frowned slightly: "Madam, is there anything you like?"

The one they like is you... Bai Li sniffled and buried himself in the dirt on the ground.

The girl looked at it for a long time, and Qianqian raised her hand: "I like this one."

Bai Li looked up, and immediately jumped up from the ground: "No way!"
