Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Qiao Lian'er walked around in the exhibition hall. Not to mention Qiao Zhizhi, this exhibition hall also gave her an unexpected surprise.

To be honest, it's a bit like the layout of the world she came from. I can only say that artists are bolder in their creativity and more forward-looking.

It has both the elegant and rich ancient charm and the refreshing modern feel, and the two are combined in a tacit and harmonious way.

Whether you hang a freehand ink painting or a realistic and complicated style on the wall, it is very suitable.

An idea flashed through Qiao Jianer's mind, but she didn't confirm it. She had to wait for news from Prince Pei's Mansion first.

Wu Qingjin sent Qiao Zhizhi back to the Qiao family.

"Zhizhi, remember, the exhibition will be held early the day after tomorrow, and then we'll all have dinner together at Prince Guangping's mansion. You can get to know more of your peers."

As soon as Wu Qingjin left, Qiao Zhizhi went to find the paintings she was satisfied with in the past. They were mainly freehand paintings. According to Wu Qingjin, she wanted to paint them with more details and apply paint.

Qiao Jianer entered the room and saw Qiao Zhizhi looking at the paints with a distressed look on her face.

"Kamera, I always feel like these pigments aren't enough. I can't achieve the effect I want. Some of the colors are too far from the actual colors, which makes the painting very biased."

Qiao Lianer looked at the pigments. Ancient painting pigments mainly came from minerals, which were very rare and difficult to collect. They also had to go through a grinding and purification process, and a set was very expensive. In reality, the colors of all things are colorful and diverse, and many of these ancient painting pigments do not correspond to them. They can only be as close as possible. This is also one of the reasons why freehand paintings have always been more popular than realistic paintings in this land.

She didn't quite believe that realism was really popular nowadays; it wasn't very realistic.

"Sister Zhizhi, please don't touch these paintings yet."

Qiao Zhizhi was holding the pen, but she didn't know whether to put it down or write. She asked, "Why?"

"Look at these two paintings you've modified. They're obviously not as good-looking as the previous ones. It's like adding unnecessary details."

"But..." Qiao Zhizhi wanted to talk about the exhibition, but when she thought of Wu Qingjin's instructions, she didn't want to go back on her word.

"No buts, Sister Zhizhi, listen to me. I know what style you want to paint in, and maybe I can help you, but when you paint, you should focus on freehand brushwork. Don't waste your work."

Jian'er could help her. Qiao Zhizhi widened her eyes slightly. She certainly believed Jian'er's words, but the exhibition was the day after tomorrow, so she had to shamelessly urge him: "Jian'er, then hurry up, I'm anxious to use it."

She felt a little embarrassed after that, but Qiao Jianer didn't care. She just pinched her face and went out.

Soon news came from Prince Pei's Mansion.

"Princess, several celebrities have arrived and are gathering together. Please go ahead."

Qiao Jian'er got on the carriage and soon arrived at Prince Pei's mansion.

Pei Shijiu had those priceless paintings hung in a large library of his. Some of them were long-lost masterpieces that people had been searching for for a long time.

Those celebrities, out of respect for Prince Pei's Mansion, all came today and they praised the paintings hanging on the walls and screens.

"This is Zhang Daren's "Returning on a Crane." I've seen many forgeries, but to be able to see the original today is truly a great blessing."

"The most ingenious thing is the crane's eyes. There seems to be light flowing in them. It is said that Master Zhang created it with one stroke. Over the years, countless people have imitated it, but all have only managed to achieve a clumsy resemblance in form but not in spirit."

"Hey, come and take a look! This looks like a painting of a wandering immortal by Master Wu, who hasn't been seen in the world for five hundred years. I've only seen it in a book that records famous paintings. Of all the great painters throughout history in the land of Daze, Master Wu would definitely be in the top three, if not first."

With an exclamation of surprise, everyone rushed towards the painting of the immortal traveling in the clouds.

Pei Shijiu stood in front of a painting with his hands folded, a look of boredom on his face, and yawned silently.

He is not interested in painting.

Although he was the one who invited the people, it was mainly Pei Zhujin who accompanied them and talked with them about the paintings.

Occasionally I look outside to see why the little girl hasn't come yet.

A light blue corner of clothing flashed by the door. His eyes lit up and he walked out.

"The most powerful ones are all here."

Qiao Lian'er nodded, entered the bookstore, greeted these celebrities one by one, and joined the group appreciating paintings.

"So the princess also likes to appreciate paintings." A master said, "I wonder if the princess usually paints."

Qiao Jianer smiled and nodded slightly: "I just admire it occasionally. I don't know much about it, and I have never touched the pen."

One of them said cheerfully: "Just treat it as a hobby, no need to worry about it."

Qiao Jianer exchanged a few words with them and asked, "These paintings are all freehand, but they are quite old. I know that in addition to freehand, there are also realistic paintings. After appreciating freehand paintings for a long time, will people turn to realistic styles?"

One of the masters stroked his beard and laughed heartily: "The group leader is an extremely smart and capable person, but he really doesn't know enough about this aspect."

"Let me put it this way. Freehand brushwork has always been the main style in this part of Daze, because our cultural tradition has always emphasized subtlety. Subtlety means leaving blank spaces. Paintings that leave blank spaces have infinite meaning and are even more worth pondering."

"Another reason is that since it's realistic, you need to use pigments, but pigments are scarce and most real-world colors can't be reproduced. As a result, the paintings are not good-looking and have low appreciation value, so they can only be a niche art."

One person lamented, "To be honest, I've thought about how beautiful the paintings would be if there were paints that could depict all the colors in life and scenery. But it's just imagination."

Another master waved his hand, "There's no way such pigments exist. Let's just focus on freehand painting. If you can achieve the pinnacle of freehand painting, you'll be remembered in the history of painting. Thinking about those side paths will only waste your energy. Be careful not to stray down the wrong path."

Qiao Lianer came to a conclusion that it was not at all like what Wu Qingjin said. Realism is popular nowadays, but firstly, it is inconsistent with tradition, and secondly, reality does not allow it.

Wu Qingjin is lying to Qiao Zhizhi. Why is she doing this?

Pei Zhujin said generously, "Since everyone is here today to show their support, please pick one of the paintings on the wall, except for the "Immortal Wandering in the Clouds" and "Returning on a Crane," to take home as a thank you gift."

Everyone was very surprised. They didn't expect the Pei Palace to be so generous. Although they couldn't get the two best paintings, the other paintings were also rare treasures that were hard to come by, and were worth at least ten thousand taels of silver.

With such a good thing happening, they certainly wouldn't refuse and quickly and politely agreed.

Qiao Jianer struck while the iron was hot: "I'd like to ask you gentlemen for a favor."
