Chapter 100 Aesthetic Problems
The environment in Yinyue Teahouse is quiet and peaceful.
Even the clothes the waiter wore were very pleasing to the eye, bright green.
When Gu Yun was copying the paintings, he would cough from time to time.
This is because the cold infection has not been cured.
However, Luo Gang's cold had recovered long ago.
"Brother Gu, are you okay? How about I find a doctor for you?"
“No need.”
Gu Yun was afraid of spending more money, as medical treatment and medicine are not cheap.
When the sun was setting, Gu Yun finally finished copying a picture of a horse and gave it to Luo Gang.
Luo Gang was a rich young man who knew nothing about painting, but he still held the painting in his hand and praised it seriously: "Good, good, Mr. Gu really paints like a god."
When he was in Beijing, he often heard people mention Gu Yun, saying that he had the talent of a top scholar.
Now he is trying to curry favor with Gu Yun, which is equivalent to investing in Gu Yun in advance. After Gu Yun becomes the top scorer in the imperial examination, the Luo family will definitely benefit from it.
Gu Yun took a look at the masterpieces on the wall, then at his own work, and couldn't help but sigh. No matter how well he wrote, it was still far worse than the original.
I heard that the Painting Saint created many excellent works in Beiyue City. It would be such a lucky thing if I could meet the Painting Saint in Beiyue City and get some guidance from him.
Luo Gang is different from Gu Yun. He is not interested in painting and is only interested in currying favor with the powerful.
"I heard that Brother Gu has a very good relationship with Marshal Qin's two sons. If you want to visit the Qin family, I will have someone prepare gifts in advance."
The Luo family wants to make friends with anyone who is powerful.
In fact, Gu Yun had already sent a visiting card to the Qin family yesterday, but there was no response.
I heard that Qin Er was neither out of the city nor at home, and I don't know what he was busy with.
In the past, Qin Er would go to the capital to study every winter, but he did not go this year. People thought that Qin Er was reluctant to part with the masterpieces of the painting master he saw at the Yin Yue Teahouse.
But that painting fanatic did not come to the Yinyue Teahouse, which really surprised Gu Yun.
I don’t know what attracted Qin Er’s attention and made him turn a deaf ear to the works of the Saint of Painting.
Luo Gang heard Gu Yun's stomach growling and suggested, "Brother Gu, let's go have dinner first."
"good."
When the two got up and walked out of the teahouse, it was already getting dark outside.
Luo Gang stood outside the gate and exclaimed.
"This Beiyue City actually has such beautiful scenery!"
Gu Yun also stopped and was attracted by the lights on the opposite side.
The opposite side was filled with large, colorful ice lanterns that were more than two meters high, and the part that was exposed above the wall was extremely dazzling.
Even the Lantern Festival in Beijing is not as dazzling as this.
The whole garden was full of lights and colors. It must be the ice sculpture Grand View Garden that the two scholars mentioned during the day.
For those who love painting, this is really excellent material.
Gu Yun loves painting, while Luo Gang has loved joining in the fun and seeing things that are strange since he was a child.
"Come on, Brother Gu, let's go join in the fun."
The two of them were no longer interested in eating, and they both quickened their pace and walked towards the Ice Sculpture Garden.
When we arrived outside the gate of the Grand View Garden, we could see crowds of people everywhere.
The Grand View Garden is really lively. There are still so many people queuing up to enter the garden late at night.
Outside the gate there are not only tourists queuing up to enter the park, but also various snack stalls.
The smell of fireworks is very strong.
Luo Gang's stomach was rumbling, so he bought more than ten skewers of barbecued lamb and shared them with Gu Yun.
They were at the end of the queue and heard tourists around them worried that they would not be able to get in line in the evening and enter the ice sculpture park.
The notice posted outside said the park would close at midnight.
Luo Gang asked the tourists around him and was told that there was a VIP channel that allowed immediate entry into the Grand View Garden, but the ticket was 5 taels of silver per person.
For Luo Gang, a rich boy, 5 taels of silver was just like a penny and was not worth mentioning.
"Come on, Brother Gu, let's go through the VIP channel."
Seeing Gu Yun hesitantly stop, Luo Gang tactfully advised: "At most, Brother Gu can help me copy a painting tomorrow and we won't owe each other anything."
Gu Yun was finally attracted by the Grand View Garden and followed Luo Gang in.
The Ice Sculpture Garden not only has ice lanterns of various unique shapes, but also trees hung with colorful lights. The phrase "fire trees and silver flowers" is used to describe such a beautiful scene.
Gu Yun actually saw Qin Er in front of a colorful phoenix ice lantern.
Qin Er can be recognized at a glance by his standard messy hair.
The phoenix has a noble posture with its wings raised high, as if it will soar into the sky in the next second.
Especially the eyes of the phoenix, they are alive, they are colorful ice balls that can rotate, colorful and vivid, and the sound they make when they rotate is like the sound of the phoenix singing.
No wonder Qin Er, a painting fanatic, didn't go to the Yinyue Teahouse to appreciate the masterpieces. It turned out that he was attracted by the dazzling colorful ice phoenix.
There were many people in the row in front of Qin Er, waiting for him to paint.
Gu Yun stepped forward and raised his hand to salute, "Brother Qin."
Qin Er was still as obsessed with painting as before, and only raised his head after being called several times.
"It's Brother Gu. When did you come to Beiyue City?"
Without waiting for Gu Yun to answer, he continued, "I'm sorry, I'm a little busy right now. I'm busy painting. Brother Gu has come from afar, please take a look around first. I'll welcome you tomorrow."
The girls waiting for their portraits were very anxious. They had been queuing since early morning. If someone was chatting and delayed Painter Qin's painting, then their whole day of queuing would be in vain.
Luo Gang noticed that the looks from the girls around him were very unfriendly.
This is not right. In the past in the capital, this Mr. Gu Yun was very popular. Why are all the girls angry at him?
But these girls were very kind to Qin Er, who had a messy hair, and their eyes were fanatical.
Is it possible that the aesthetic taste in Beiyue Pass is different from that in the capital?
Gu Yun stepped forward to admire a painting that Qin Er had just finished.
I have to say, it's very well drawn.
I don’t know where Qin Er learned this from.
Qin Er's painting skills were inferior to his before, but he didn't expect that he has surpassed him now.
"I wonder who did you learn this painting skill from, Brother Gu?"
"Oh, my master is a very powerful person. I'll introduce him to you if we meet next time."
When Qin Er mentioned his master, his eyes were full of admiration.
The girls have been queuing up to ask Qin Er to help them paint their portraits for a whole day, so it's inevitable that they are angry.
Gu Yun stomped his feet in anger at disturbing Painter Qin.
Why is it so tortuous when I want to paint a beautiful portrait?
This young man looked decent, but he was really annoying. He always talked to Painter Qin and disturbed him while he was painting.
Seeing the girls looked ferocious and murderous, Luo Gang quickly pulled Gu Yun to look at the ice lanterns somewhere else.
"Brother Gu, let's not stand in front of the girls. The girls in Beiyue City are very strange. They like the look of Mr. Qin with the chicken coop hair. You are not popular here at all."
After thinking for a while, he said a few more words of comfort, "But Brother Gu, don't be sad. It's not your problem. It's their own aesthetics that are problematic. Brother Gu is still very popular among girls in Beijing."
