Chapter 260: Peony, the King of Flowers
"If Mr. Song and Ms. Jiang need anything, feel free to help get it."
Although there are almost nothing in this world that cannot be bought with money, it is the first time for Mr. Song and Ms. Jiang to come to the capital. They are unfamiliar with the place and inevitably lack some personal connections, making many things inconvenient to do.
"Don't worry, my dear." Xinghe agreed readily.
Speaking of which, Mr. Song and Ms. Jiang are people who like to save trouble. Even if they want something, it is nothing more than some ordinary items, which is not a difficult task.
Xinghe only instructed reliable stewards and servants to keep these matters in mind on a daily basis.
Song Jingyun and Jiang Mixia were unaware of these things and were busy making bamboo paintings in Courtyard No. 8.
Jiang Mixia was worried about Song Jingyun's health.
Worried about him, he had tried three times in a row, and had been in the pigeon cage for so many days in the chilly spring. In addition, he had a poor appetite after the spring examination, and his body was a little thinner than before.
But seeing how excited Song Jingyun was at the moment, she didn't want to disturb him, so she just let him go and even helped him to make bamboo paintings.
The dyed and dried bamboo strips flew up and down in Song Jingyun's hands. Seeing that the bamboo painting of Guanyin Bodhisattva in his hand had taken shape, Song Jingyun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
"How about a bamboo painting woven into a peony flower for the next one?"
"It's feasible." Jiang Mixia nodded with a smile.
Peony is the king of flowers and has always symbolized prosperity, peace and reunion. It is a very good flower and is quite popular.
only……
"In the past few days you have successively woven several bamboo paintings, landscapes, flowers and birds, and Bodhisattvas and Buddha statues, each one is different. Now you want to weave peony flowers. Do you want to collect all the patterns?" Jiang Mixia joked.
"I didn't think about it that much. I just made up a pattern that suddenly came to my mind." Song Jingyun chuckled.
Just like before, he was originally thinking about whether the small canteen in Guanghua Garden would make the braised pork with preserved vegetables that he wanted to eat today at noon, but the image of a peony flower suddenly appeared in his mind.
Moreover, the peony flowers were just buds at first, but they suddenly blossomed in an instant, forming endless patches that were so beautiful as to stretch as far as the eye could see.
Such lush and gorgeous peony flowers made Song Jingyun's heart itch, and he was determined to capture this beautiful scenery in this exquisite bamboo painting.
When Jiang Mixia heard Song Jingyun say this, she didn't take it too seriously and just continued to help Song Jingyun clean up the bamboo strips that were stained with color.
By the time the bamboo weaving painting in his hand was completed and the bamboo painting of peony flowers had taken shape, Song Jingyun's bamboo weaving, which had been working day and night, gradually slowed down.
After these days, Song Jingyun felt that his appetite had recovered a lot.
You can taste the salty and delicious tofu pudding for breakfast, the sweet and soft fried sugar cake, and the crispy and delicious five-spice orchid beans that my wife bought on the street.
Song Jingyun was in a very good mood, so he selected two bamboo paintings from those he had made in recent days, and then went to visit Jiang Junli and Master Yin.
The two were in Courtyard No. 1 at the time, and were quite surprised to see Song Jingyun coming.
"Mr. Song actually has some free time today, which is really rare." The prince joked.
"I was busy with some things a few days ago. I have some free time these two days, so I came to see Mr. Jiang and Mr. Yin."
