Everyone knows that the Yangzhou government office is a scholarly family, and the adults have an only daughter, whose surname is Dongfang and her name is Bai.

The moonlight is clear and bright, the frost and snow are not as white as the east.

It was the girl from the Dongfang family who was born with icy muscles and fine bones, with white wrists and a head.There are hundreds of beautiful women in the world, but half of them have this femininity, and even fewer have this woman's literary talent.Therefore, after such a comparison, it is difficult for Dongfangbai not to be famous in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

It's just that the magistrate is arrogant, and he let out the word that this precious daughter is going to the emperor's side, so he declined all marriage proposals.Dongfang Bai lived in the boudoir for a long time, so he naturally obeyed his father's words without any objection.

When the draft came, Dongfang Bai was still twenty-eight years old, and the Yangzhou government made this matter a top priority.Local talent selection relies on portraits, and the level of the painters plays a key role. Therefore, the gates of the government offices, which have always been deserted, are almost smashed down by the painters who come to paint portraits.

Just after the new year, the prefect of Yangzhou was filled with lights and festoons, and the sound of firecrackers was heard sporadically outside. There were children running past screaming, and their laughter was as clear as silver bells.

"Miss, you are distracted."

Dongfang Bai was stunned for a moment, retracting his gaze that had drifted to the high wall at some point, straightened his sitting posture, looked awkwardly at the painter in front of him, and tried his best to force out a stiff smile.

"Miss, just take it easy, don't be nervous." Behind the tall drawing board revealed a pair of bright and dark eyes, and smiled at Dongfang Bai.

The ghost was nervous, Dongfang Bai couldn't help muttering in his heart, but it's no wonder why he didn't feel uncomfortable sitting so stiffly every day for the past few days!Mom and Dad are really too, isn't the one overlooking wintersweet yesterday pretty good?I have to nitpick and say that my eyes are dull... This artist is the same today, I have never even heard of her name, she is still a thin woman, she can't even hold a pen steadily, what good paintings can she draw?Parents are obviously casting a wide net, fearing that they will recruit all the people in Yangzhou who are able to draw, and they will be exhausted to death.

"Miss, you're distracted again." The little-known artist was very observant.

Dongfang Bai was restless, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he gave the little painter a white look, and said angrily, "If you are told to paint, just paint, leave me alone, okay?"

The painter paused, and put his sideburns behind his ears, revealing his extremely white and beautiful forehead: "Miss, it is wrong to say that. If your heart is impetuous, your eyes will naturally be dull. The so-called finishing touch, if your eyes are not good-looking, then I'm doing useless work right now."

Dongfang Bai was wronged for a while, and continued to smile, looking at the kind eyes of the person in front of him, thinking, what the little painter said was a bit unreasonable, could it be that he is really a hidden master?Dongfang Bai couldn't help feeling a little admiration in his heart, and he didn't dare to distract himself.

It's just that this painter is constantly improving, and his hands and feet are very slow. Dongfang Bai didn't dare to move his eyes, so he had to look at her all the time——she looks fair, with slender and slender fingers holding the brush lightly. There is an ordinary low-hanging bun on the back of the head, which is only tied with a light yellow satin, but it is a pity that its appearance cannot be seen from this angle.

Looking at Dongfang Bai's focused eyes, the painter's smile grew stronger. She took a deep breath, raised her hand to take off the rice paper, and blew into the sunlight: "Okay, miss, can you take a look first?"

Hearing this, Dongfang Bai felt as if he had heard an amnesty order. He stood up rubbing his sore shoulders and neck, walked slowly to the side of the painter, and was completely stunned when he saw the woman on the rice paper.

"This person...is me?" Dongfang Bai felt that the past ten years seemed to be in vain. Although the appearance of the woman on the drawing paper was well-proportioned, she was not outstanding at all, and could only be considered average. I can't find it anymore.

Dongfang Bai touched his face in disbelief, although he never felt that he was beautiful, but if he really looked like this painter's painting, there was no hope of being selected.

The artist didn't speak, just picked up another piece of drawing paper that was thrown aside, the Dongfang Bai on it was looking sideways, it was what it should look like, the corner of her lips curled up, folded the drawing and put it away palm, with a sly smile: "This is you. But, I want to use the ugly one." Lily Fiction Group 385447817 (non-author group)

Dongfang Bai raised his head and looked at the painter suspiciously: "Why?"

The artist smiled deeply, his bright eyes curved into two crescents: "Because I don't want you to be selected."

As soon as these words came out, Dongfang Bai was completely stunned.Is this person stupid?It’s not like you’re the only portrait, and there are many people who paint lifelike portraits. Isn’t this a waste of money and people?Could it be that he made a special trip to tease himself?But I have always lived in the boudoir, seldom go out, and I don't know this woman at all, so where is the hatred?

The artist handed the rice paper to the handmaiden who heard the news, and then turned his head and smiled at Dongfang Bai who had turned into a stake: "I'm leaving, there will be a time later."

This smile made Dongfang Bai's whole body tremble, this woman's smile was so bright and beautiful, unexpectedly his heart beat a little faster.

When he came back to his senses, the neat snow-green was already at the end of the corridor, and it was about to disappear around the corner.

Dongfang Bai hurriedly said: "Wait, your name is..." But before he could finish speaking, his figure had disappeared completely.

The maid, Shu Huan, looked at the portrait and frowned: "Why did you paint Miss like this, you can see that she is a worthless..."

"Shu Huan, do you know her name?" Dongfang Bai felt regretful, sighed and asked Shu Huan with some hope.

"Ms. Hui, that person was selling paintings at Liu'antou just now. I don't know why Madam has taken a fancy to her. I have to call her to paint for the lady. Now it's over! It's such a joke..." Shu Huan complained , I want to fold the portrait at will.

Dongfang Bai took a corner of the rice paper, pulled it out, rolled it up and gently held it in his hand: "You haven't answered me what her name is."

Shu Huan blinked: "I heard it's called Du Yue. Miss asking why?"

Dongfang Bai was stunned for a moment, she didn't know why she asked the woman's name, she just shook her head indiscriminately, and went back to the room obsessed with the portrait.

Du Yue, Du Yue.

The name sounded familiar, but Dongfang Bai couldn't remember it after thinking about it for a long time.The name sounds good, but the person is inexplicable.Dongfang Bai was in a daze at Du Yue's mediocre self, but after a while, he laughed again.

At the head of the willow bank and the seven-hole bridge, the sun will melt when the snow falls and touches the ground.

Dongfang Bai went out without telling his parents who were concentrating on painting, but it was a pity that he didn't expect snow and forgot to put on his fur robe.The winter in the south is wet and cold, and when the wind blows, the cold air swishes into the muscles and bones.

After finally walking quickly to the head of Liu'an, Dongfang Bai could only exhale into the palms of his hands, shivering and shrinking his neck.There are not many pedestrians on the road and they are in a hurry, but not far away, there are many people forming a small circle, which is very conspicuous.

Dongfang Bai carefully pushed aside the crowd, and saw many mounted landscape paintings on the simple stage.Dongfang Bai didn't know much about painting, but he couldn't help but be amazed by it—his grandeur, his neat brushwork, beautiful mountains and rivers, all of which are endless.She raised her head along the way, only to find that Du Yue, surrounded by the crowd, was looking at her with raised eyebrows, eyes full of surprise.

As soon as he saw Dongfang Bai, Du Yue raised his hand to disperse the crowd, overlapped the paintings randomly, and wrapped them in sackcloth.

Dongfang Bai came back to his senses, and hurriedly pressed Du Yue's hand: "Why did you leave as soon as you saw me? Could it be that I am some kind of debt collector?"

Du Yue caressed Dongfangbai's cheeks, gently rubbed his warm palms on his red ears, and said with a smile: "Miss Dongfang came to see me specially, so naturally I can't treat Miss badly by telling her to sleep in the snow. freezing."

Dongfang Bai was seen through his thoughts, and his face couldn't help turning redder: "How do you know that I came to see you specially? I just passed by here..."

"If it wasn't for thinking about it in my heart, why would I forget to put on my robe when I went out?" Du Yue untied his cotton robe, wrapped his arms around Dongfang Bai's neck, and tied it around her shoulders.

The two of them approached suddenly, their noses almost touched, Dongfang Bai was too stunned to speak, and just let his dexterous fingers tie knots on his chest in a daze.

His body warmed up immediately, but when he thought that the temperature came from the woman beside him, Dongfang Bai's heartbeat became unsteady for some reason, and he secretly glanced at the woman's graceful and delicate side profile, and even his breathing became messy.

"You live here?" Dongfang Bai walked around the ruined temple, the temple was tidied up, and there was still some red glow in the middle of the fire.

Du Yue nodded, put down the package generously in the corner, turned around and said to Dongfang Bai: "Miss has been rich and well-clothed since she was a child, and I am so poor that I can't even afford food. How can I afford an inn?" Du Yue said very casually, as if not I didn't take this shabby scene to heart.

Dongfang Bai was uncomfortable hearing this, but didn't know what to say, he just pursed his lips, and stretched out his hand to get close to the fire to keep warm: "Aren't you cold at night?" He looked up at the smiling land god again, feeling a chill down his spine, " Shouldn't you be scared to death facing this stone statue at night?"

Du Yue couldn't hold back, smiled "puchi", turned behind Dongfang Bai, closed the temple door, then came to her side, poked the fire, added some straw and dead branches in, and the flames burst into flames. It made her pale cheeks a lot more rosy.

"Miss, do you think it's better to starve to death? Or to be scared to death? Besides, I'm alone, and I don't have a companion. How can I suffocate to death?" Du Yue said nonchalantly, puffing her cheeks and blowing into the middle of the fire.

Dongfang Bai sneered: "Woke up from hunger in the middle of the night, and was frightened to death by the stone statue."

Du Yue glanced at her with a smile, held the branch with her slender fingers and poked Dongfang Bai's arm: "I didn't realize that your heart is like a snake and a scorpion."

Dongfang Bai walked around Du Yue, picked up the wine jar next to her package, glanced at her and said: "If you don't have money to eat, you have money to drink."

Du Yue's eyes were cracked with laughter, and he took out another can of wine from behind as if conjuring, unplugged his mouth, bumped the can in Dongfang Bai's hand, and said with pride, "Come on, let's do it!"

Dongfang Bai snatched the wine jar from her angrily: "What are you doing? It's not that everyone who paints is sober. You're drunk, no wonder you can't draw anything good."

Du Yue looked at Dongfang Bai aggrievedly, his eyes were watery and became darker and brighter.

"By the way, last time you said you didn't want me to be selected, I thought about it for a long time and still couldn't figure it out. I didn't know you before, so why did you do this?" Dongfang Bai didn't dare to look into Du Yue's eyes, afraid of the kind The strange feeling struck again, so I had to stare at the jumping flames.

Du Yue sat down cross-legged, and looked at Dongfang Bai with her chin resting on her cheeks. Her cheeks were glowing softly, her eyes were slightly narrowed, and there seemed to be sparkling water. People can't help but want to pinch up.Du Yue thought so, and then did the same: "I don't know either."

It's really as delicate as suet, so soft that you don't want to let go.Du Yue looked at Dongfang Bai's astonished eyes, and smiled with satisfaction. Before she knocked her hand off, Du Yue hurriedly took a step away like a cat that stole the smell, and did not forget to pick it up. The wine bottle, turned around and took a sip into his mouth.

The strong wine burned into his throat, Du Yue accidentally choked, coughed violently, wiped the corner of his mouth with his cuff nonchalantly, looked down at Dongfang Bai, and said with a smile: "I said, miss, you are really You don't have the heart to guard against others. You didn't know my details so you left with me. If I were a personal trafficker or a robber, what would you do?"

Dongfang Bai glared at her angrily: "As long as you are like this, you are almost a disciple. Besides, your name is Du Yue, and you are just a painting seller by the river. What other details can you have?"

Du Yue looked at Dongfang Bai in great surprise, and raised her head and laughed heartily. After laughing, she squatted back beside Dongfang Bai, leaned close to her ear, and said softly: "Miss is so smart, I'm just a disciple..." , exhaled softly towards Dongfang Bai's pinna.

The ear is an extremely sensitive place, and being teased by Du Yue, Dongfang Bai became unsteady and fell backwards.

Du Yue held Dongfang Bai's hand quickly, and after his body stabilized, he fiddled with the fire as if nothing had happened: "I'm just a wandering person, this month's fireworks will be in Jiangnan, and next month may be I'm eating wind and sand in Mobei. Miss is rich and honored, why should I be friends with people like me. It's cold, I'd better go back earlier."

He was obviously annoyed by Du Yue's indiscreet behavior just now, but after these words, Dongfang Bai couldn't get angry anymore, the smell of alcohol on Du Yue's body floated faintly to the tip of his nose, making people feel uneasy.Dongfang Bai sniffled and said softly: "I have a name, don't Miss Zong..."

Du Yue raised her eyebrows: "Don't you know that I am ordering you to chase away guests?"

"I know." Dongfang Bai nodded calmly.

This time it was Du Yue's turn to be stunned. After the two of them stared wide-eyed for a long time, Du Yue suddenly smiled and moved closer, the thick black eyelashes fluttering on the almost transparent white skin, which was particularly abrupt: "Okay, How about I call you Baier?"

Even though she is so delicate and gentle, her behavior is completely different from her appearance, which makes people dumbfounded.Dongfang Bai felt that he was being teased again by this apprentice, but he just looked at her magnified face before his eyes, his mouth was dry and he couldn't speak.

"Your face is so red." The corners of Du Yue's lips gradually curled up, and she smiled meaningfully.

Dongfang Bai turned his head away, and continued to stare at the fire in a daze: "It's a bit hot."

Du Yue continued to get closer to her: "Is it hot, I feel cold."

Not knowing what Du Yue was up to, Dongfang Bai decided to ignore it.

"Bai'er, are you hungry?"

Dongfang Bai ignored it.

"Bai'er, do you want to drink?"

Dongfang Bai ignored it.

"Bai'er, you're still wearing my clothes."

Dongfang Bai didn't say anything about untying the knot on his chest, but Du Yue prevented his robe from drooping, and it probably tied a tight knot, which he couldn't untie no matter what.

Seeing this, Du Yue stretched out his hand to help Dongfang Bai out.Her fingers are extremely slender, with no visible joints, and they are extremely beautiful.Dongfang Bai noticed that Du Yue was looking at him and laughing, and his face inevitably became more and more red.

The robe slipped off her shoulders, Du Yue's pupils were as black as a deep pool, and like a whirlpool, she spoke softly, her voice was slightly hoarse, which made one's imagination arouse: "I want to kiss you, Bai'er."
