After Mr. Li rolled up the painting,

Then he came to Shen Yu and said with a smile,

"My dear friend Shen Yu, I have benefited greatly from our discussion this morning. That's why I created this painting of plum blossoms blooming in the snow. I'm giving it to you. I hope you don't mind."

Shen Yu heard this,

He quickly waved his hands and said,

"Mr. Li, this won't do. A gentleman doesn't take away what others love. Besides, this is a testimony to your great achievements. Please keep it as a souvenir."

Seeing this, Mr. Li looked at Shen Yu unhappily and said,

"This is a gift from me to you. What? You don't like this old man's painting?"

When Shen Yu heard this, he smiled bitterly.

Now there is no reason to refuse, so I can only say,

"Thank you, Mr. Li. I actually like this painting very much."

Mr. Feng who was standing by also said,

"Fortunately, you gave it to Shen Yu, otherwise this painting would not have left my house today."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Li said angrily,

"I knew you were such a scoundrel. I can't take it away anyway, so I might as well give it to Shen Yu."

After that, the two of them burst into laughter.

Shen Yu was still moved when he heard this.

He knew that the two old men said this specifically so that he could accept the painting with peace of mind.

Shen Yu did not point it out, as he could not let the efforts of the two old gentlemen go to waste.

After handing the painting to Luo Zhi, he came to the desk and said,

"I was inspired by this painting just now and wrote a poem. I hope you will appreciate it."

When Mr. Feng and Mr. Li heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

You should know that Shen Yu's poems are now highly praised. The poems he wrote are

It has also made countless poetry lovers study it all night long.

Now when they heard that Shen Yu was going to write a new poem, they immediately gathered around him.

Luo Zhi didn't say anything, and she and Feng Ruoxi also came over.

Shen Yu picked up the brush in his hand and filled the tip of the brush with ink.

He casually picked up a piece of calligraphy and painting paper and was about to write.

suddenly,

Mr. Feng, who was standing by, was very quick-witted.

He pulled the calligraphy and painting paper from the table, and then spread out a piece of the finest Sanzhangsan rice paper.

After seeing everyone's eyes, he smiled and explained,

"Change to a better piece of rice paper so that your calligraphy will flow more smoothly."

After fixing the rice paper with a ruler, Mr. Feng made a gesture of invitation.

Seeing Mr. Feng's servile look, Mr. Li snorted coldly.

This guy didn't have this attitude towards him before.

Seeing myself using a good piece of rice paper, I feel visibly unhappy.

Now when he comes to Shen Yu, he still complains that others don't use good rice paper. How can he reason with this?

Shen Yu saw that the rice paper had been laid out.

Without hesitation, he quickly started writing on the rice paper.

Of course, the font used is naturally the familiar Slender Gold font.

This time Shen Yu wrote a five-character quatrain, which only has twenty words.

Including the title, there are only 22 words.

It was finished in just a few minutes.

Mr. Li was standing beside Shen Yu. After seeing Shen Yu's five-character quatrain,

I couldn't move my eyes away any longer, and looked at the poem on the rice paper on the table.

I couldn't help but recite it silently.

"A few plum blossoms bloom alone in the corner, braving the cold. I know from afar that it is not snow, because of the subtle fragrance..."

I repeated it several times in a row,

Only then did Mr. Li come back to his senses and said loudly,

"Good, this poem is so well written. It perfectly captures the plum blossom's unflinching character, its ability to withstand the harsh cold. It also highlights its purity, especially the last line, 'There is a subtle fragrance...'"

Once Mr. Li started talking, he couldn't stop.

Mr. Feng, who was standing by, explained,

"Old Li's favorite thing in his life is plum blossoms, and the thing he paints the most is also plum blossoms."

Shen Yu smiled and said,

"As the saying goes, it's impolite not to reciprocate. Mr. Li, this plum blossom poem is for you. I hope you don't mind it."

When Mr. Li heard that Shen Yu wanted to give this poem to him,

I couldn't help but stand there in a daze, staring blankly at the words.

It took him a long while to react, and he looked at Shen Yu and said with a trembling voice,

"Young friend Shen Yu, logically I should refuse, but I really like this poem so much that I'm reluctant to part with it. Can I buy it for you? Don't worry, I will never let you suffer any loss."

Shen Yu shook his head immediately after hearing this.

"Mr. Li, talking about money will hurt our feelings. I never sell my calligraphy, I only give it to friends."

After hearing what Shen Yu said, Mr. Li realized that he had made a mistake.

He stopped insisting and said with a smile,

"Okay, then I'll shamelessly accept it. I'll have it framed and put it on the wall of the living room when I get home. I love this poem so much."

Seeing the two smiling faces, Mr. Feng, who was standing by, suddenly became a little angry.

He spoke slowly,

"You two are so good, giving each other gifts on my territory, I didn't miss anything."

Mr. Li chuckled.

He did not say anything to provoke Mr. Feng.

He just needs to be happy secretly now because he got the advantage. If he continues to be stimulated,

This calligraphy of plum blossoms may not be his.

Seeing this, Shen Yu had no choice but to pick up his pen again.

Writing something quickly on the rice paper.

Seeing this, Mr. Feng and Mr. Li were shocked.

As if he had thought of something, he quickly surrounded them.

as predicted,

Shen Yu wrote another seven-character quatrain on the remaining rice paper.

The trees beside my home's inkstone pool have flowers blooming with faint traces of ink.

Don't want people to praise your good looks, just keep your pure spirit filling the universe.

As soon as I finished writing this poem,

Old Feng pushed away Old Li, who was closest to Shen Yu, and forced his way in front of Shen Yu.

Mr. Li was getting a little impatient with him.

Immediately said unhappily,

"Why are you pushing me? I haven't seen enough."

At this time, Mr. Feng was not willing to be outdone and said,

"Hey, this is what Shen Yu wrote to me. What are you doing standing here? Let me read it first."

Looking at Mr. Feng's useless appearance,

Mr. Li said angrily,

"Look at how useless you are. I was never like you before."

Feng Ruoxi's face was also full of black lines at this time.

Seeing my grandfather like this, I stamped my feet. It was really too embarrassing.

Even her granddaughter felt ashamed.

But Mr. Feng doesn't care about these things at all.

He kept reciting the black plum poem in a low voice, and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper.

Subsequently,

He took out his cell phone and took a photo, then carefully put the calligraphy away.

Looking at Feng Ruoxi,

"Ruoxi, please put away Shen Yu's calligraphy. Also, tomorrow, find someone to plant some plum blossoms outside the window next to my study desk."

Feng Ruoxi heard this,

I couldn't help but give my grandfather a blank look.

Isn't this a blatant imitation of the scene in the poem?

But she didn't refuse.

Because this poem is really well written.
