On the other side, Zhong Chen moved into Aunt Wang's house next door.
Aunt Wang's grandson built a new house in her hometown while working in other places. Her home has the best conditions in Quanzhan Meicun.
Fu Hanri also lives here.
When they met under the same roof, they looked at each other subconsciously.
Fu Hanri knew Zhong Chen, this kid used to chase after Qi Lele every day, he was his rival in love. This time Zhong Chen came here probably because of Qi Lele again, he thought to himself.
Fu Hanri has always had a bad attitude towards his rivals. Just like Qi Yingjun in the past, he was played and applauded by him several times.
But things are different now.
Fu Hanri just nodded slightly to the other party, then he lifted the curtain and entered the door indifferently.
The assistant ran in with his lunch box and shouted, "Brother Fu, there are a lot of sketching students coming from the studio today."
Fu Hanri sat at the table and opened the script, while reading it, he casually said: "Well, I just saw it."
Assistant: "Qi Linqing is here too."
"What?" Fu Hanri raised his head suddenly.
After he and Qi Lele broke up, the marriage with the Qi family had to continue.
In this way, there is only one choice left for him.
After Zhong Chen packed his luggage, he went to the side to find Qi Linqing.
When he opened the door and entered, Qi Linqing was squatting in the courtyard with the black-skinned boy washing red bayberries.
The mountains are cool in summer, and the sun shines in, coating the two jujube trees in the yard with a layer of sparkling light gold.
Qi Lin washed his hands, stood up and gave him a pot of red bayberries.
Zhong Chen took two bites, found it very sweet, and said, "Did you pick this yourself?"
The black-skinned boy looked at the tattoo on his arm and said:
"Yes, I will accompany Granny Cai to pick red bayberries on the mountain every summer."
Zhong Chen: "It's delicious, I'll buy some from you later."
"No, no, no." The black-skinned boy hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You are Linqing's friend, just take it away."
Zhong Chen glanced at the two of them, "Do you know each other?"
"Hmm." The black-skinned boy rubbed his hands back and forth against the hem of his trousers a few times before reaching out and saying, "Hello, my name is Lou Wenyao."
Zhong Chen didn't have much impression of this name, thinking that maybe the other party was Qi Linqing's former friend in the countryside.
He stretched out his hand to shake back the other party, and said, "I am Zhong Chen."
A shy smile appeared on Lou Wenyao's dark cheeks, "I know you, I've seen you and Linqing's Weibo chat."
Inexplicably, Zhong Chen's ears were a little hot, and he said awkwardly, "Oh... oh."
Qi Linqing didn't understand why, so he turned around and asked, "What Weibo super chat?"
Zhong Chen tugged at his sleeve, and said in a low voice, "I'll explain to you when I go back."
Now that he has nothing to do, Zhong Chen also knelt down to help them deal with the bayberry.
He and Qi Linqing are used to living together, and they have developed a tacit understanding in daily life.
After Zhong Chen finished cutting the excess branches and leaves of the bayberry, Qi Linqing took it from him and put it under the water to wash.
Lou Wenyao's unintentional scene, even if he guessed that Qi Linqing was not the person he knew before, he would inevitably feel sad in his heart.
Granny Cai brought out a basin of homemade ice powder from the house.
It's the kind that really uses a washbasin, it's a big one. A transparent block that wobbles in the light.
She took a big knife and cut it into eight large pieces like cutting a cake, and then divided them into small bowls.
Pour a handful of raisins and hawthorn into each bowl, and sprinkle some sugar.
The three teenagers squatted under the eaves and ate deliciously.
"Do you want to eat watermelon?" She asked again with a smile.
"No need." Zhong Chen said: "Grandma, please sit down, don't be busy."
Granny Cai looked at him and said with a smile: "Young man is so handsome, are you and Linqing friends?"
Zhong Chen nodded.
Granny Cai brought out the remaining big bowl of ice powder for him, forced the spoon to him, and said:
"Eat, eat more, Grandma will cook as much as you want."
Zhong Chen was crying and laughing, but to no avail, he had no choice but to take it and eat slowly.
Granny Cai was still muttering: "We grew up in Linqing, we didn't have any good friends except Wen Yao..."
This sentence shows that the original Qi Linqing was a withdrawn child.
It can also be seen from the "Metamorphosis" program that he is not good at interpersonal communication at all, and he also stammers when facing his biological parents, not knowing what good words to say to enhance the relationship. With his clumsy tongue, he has no advantage in front of Qi Lele.
But the Qi Linqing in front of him was different.
Even if he is cold, silent, and restrained, he is like a bright galaxy, always lingering and following people who like him.
Zhong Chen thought of Fu Yi.
Even when Master was down and down, he never lacked friends.
The suspicions of the two gradually overlapped, like the ashes of a wildfire, which made him feel strange again.
Boom boom boom.
The door rang.
Zhong Chen walked over to open the door.
Tang Gula was holding a bag of snacks and instant noodles in his hand, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhong, I'll bring you and Linqing something to eat."
Zhong Chen glanced at him and said, "Come in."
Tang Gula put down his things and ran over to help Qi Lin clean the red bayberry.
Zhong Chen: "..."
Boom boom boom.
The door rang again.
Zhong Chen walked over and opened the door.
Outside the door, the smile on Fu Hanri's face froze when he saw him, but soon returned to normal, and said:
"Is Qi Linqing here?"
Zhong Chen: "Why are you looking for him?"
"Oh, this." Fu Hanri handed over the thermos and said, "My assistant went down the mountain and brought the black chicken soup from the restaurant..."
Zhong Chen's forehead twitched, his gaze circled around the men in the room, and then returned to Qi Linqing.
He's not a fool, and he's even incredibly perceptive in this regard.
From the moment he first entered the door, Zhong Chen sensed that Lou Wenyao was interested in Qi Linqing.
Not to mention Tanggula... and the hero of the novel who gave black chicken soup like an idiot.
Zhong Chen silently sighed in his heart.
Why is this wood so popular
"Give me the soup and you can go," he said.
Fu Hanri frowned, and said, "No need, someone else should be inside, right? I want to hand it over to him."
Zhong Chen sneered, and lazily raised his eyes: "What qualification do you want? Qi Lele's boyfriend or fiance?"
Fu Hanri: "Qi Lele and I have already broken up."
This time Zhong Chen hesitated.
After all, the two of them were very affectionate in the novel, and it is really surprising that they are divided now.
It seems that the plot in the book has quietly undergone certain reversals.
"It's you, haven't you liked Qi Lele for a long time? You can go after him now." Fu Hanri had a sneer on his lips, "There's no need to be here, tit for tat block my way."
"Sorry." The corner of Zhong Chen's mouth curled slightly, "The person I like now is Qi Linqing."
The tone of voice reveals that it must be won.
Fu Hanri froze for a moment, confirming that he wasn't joking.
So going around, they will become rivals in love again
bang.
Zhong Chen ruthlessly closed the door, and said:
"Whether you want to give it away or not, it's the 21st century and it's really earthy to return black chicken soup."
Fu Hanri: "..."
Life in the country is simple and modest.
At first, the students were clamoring for the freshness, seeing big stars, and the recording team of the well-known variety show "Poverty in the Pastoral".
But this freshness was completely worn off the next day.
They began to be unable to bear the simple food and drink, looking forward to the end of sketching and returning to the big city.
Even Zhimo's studio on a hill in the suburbs is better than this ghostly place.
The next day the teacher organized them to sketch by the mountain stream.
It just so happened that the crew of "Poverty in the Pastoral" was also filming here.
Originally, the location by the stream was big enough, and the two groups of people could not affect each other at all.
The students have been told countless times by the studio teacher, no matter how excited they are, they will not show it obviously.
But when the variety show director saw Qi Linqing in the crowd, his heart skipped a beat.
Who would have thought of such a coincidence
They also met each other in the courtyard last time, and the news that Qi Linqing was going to participate in a variety show was inadvertently spread, which once caused a lot of netizens to boil.
Everyone loves gossip.
Obviously, the audience is also looking forward to Qi Lele and Qi Linqing's second appearance in the same frame after "Metamorphosis".
Thinking of this, the director took the initiative to negotiate with the teacher, whether it is possible to take pictures of the students sketching into the mirror.
Teacher: "I'm not sure about this, I have to ask them."
Because portrait rights were involved, the teacher went back to confirm with the students.
The students agreed excitedly, who would not be happy to be on variety TV? Even if it's just a passing shot, it's worth showing off to family and friends when you go back.
"Student Qi, what do you think?" The teacher approached and asked Qi Linqing again.
The main reason that the director said just now is that he wants to focus on shooting him.
Qi Linqing was originally unwilling to participate in this kind of activity, but remembering that Lou Wenyao told him yesterday that Zhanmei Village promoted the whole village's poverty alleviation and prosperity because of the broadcast of the program "Metamorphosis", he agreed.
If he can make "Poverty in the Pastoral" more popular, it must also bring more opportunities to Zhanmei Village.
When the director heard this, he immediately let the camera start shooting around the group of students.
Of course, the key point was Qi Linqing.
Qi Lele's expression was uneasy after learning about it.
These two days, he and Qi Linqing lived under the same roof.
Although Granny Cai has mild dementia, she still recognized Qi Linqing.
From that day on, she completely regarded him as a stranger, polite and enthusiastic, but without the warmth and intimacy of a family.
All this made Qi Lele feel very uncomfortable.
In addition, even the film crew is now revolving around Qi Linqing, as if adding salt to his wounds.
"What's so good about sketching and painting." He muttered, sitting under the sun lounger with a watermelon and blowing a small fan.
Although Qi Linqing is well-known on the Internet, he didn't make an official debut. It's just that he got the blood of a wealthy family and participated in "Metamorphosis" with him.
The assistant hurriedly stepped forward to give him a massage, and coaxed: "Yes, yes, maybe the director just wants to add a scene to enrich the plot..."
However, the fact in front of him is that the director pointed all the cameras, even the aerial drones, at Qi Linqing alone.
Qi Lele: "..."
The reality show variety show they filmed has a script.
But now facing this group of students temporarily, the filming crew can only play at will temporarily.
The students sat by the stream, at their easels.
There is no shortage of good-looking people here, and there is no shortage of people with eye-catching hair colors.
But Qi Linqing was particularly eye-catching in the crowd.
There was something about him that was unusually quiet.
The cameraman pointed at Qi Linqing, and out of appreciation for the beauty, he kept changing the angle and clicking.
"This child is so good-looking, there is no dead angle at 365 degrees." He praised.
Director: "... I asked you to take pictures of him drawing, but I didn't ask you to take a group photo of him."
Cameraman: "Oh, I've taken all the shots, so I can post them later for publicity."
Director: "..."
The director glanced at the camera screen, and could only sigh with emotion that Qi Linqing's looks were indeed top-notch.
Rural and rural areas can shoot international blockbusters with a sense of sight.
But also because he was so good-looking, the crew subconsciously ignored his paintings.
Sketching includes coloring, which is a long process.
The director didn't follow the whole shot, and left after a few shots.
After the students finished drawing, they came back to take another picture of the finished product.
However, it is precisely because of this that Qi Linqing freezes the painting in front of the camera in the end, which makes them feel more shocked.
The brief time for sketching was fleeting, and on the third day they had to take the bus back to City B.
Qi Linqing said goodbye to Granny Cai, and agreed to come back to visit after the holiday.
Granny Cai quietly stuffed several boxes of fresh red bayberries into his luggage.
When Qi Linqing was about to leave, Lou Wenyao hesitated for a moment, but stepped forward to stop him.
The small roads in the countryside are not easy to walk.
Qi Linqing just took a few steps out with her luggage when she heard the sound and turned around.
There was silence, just the two of them.
Lou Wenyao stepped forward, looked at him and said, "You are not the real Qi Linqing, are you?"
Qi Linqing didn't speak.
Lou Wenyao did not continue to ask, thought for a while, and said:
"I hope you can go further, whether in entertainment or painting."
Qi Linqing: "Huh?"
Lou Wenyao: "The Qi Linqing I know, his dream was to let many, many people know about himself."
Lou Wenyao remembers that a long time ago, they rode bicycles for half an hour, and then changed to a country bus to watch a free movie in the town. Maybe this dream was just mentioned casually by Lin Qing, but he could tell that the other party was serious.
Linqing likes watching movies very much. He is not reconciled to living in the countryside in this mountain, and has always longed for a more exciting world outside.
Later, with great luck, Qi Linqing was selected as one of the leading actors in "Metamorphosis".
He became famous, but because of his character, he was criticized all over the Internet.
But the boy in front of him was different.
Lou Wenyao had a strong premonition that he could replace Qi Linqing to realize his dream.
"The car is coming!" Zhong Chen was waving to them in the distance.
"Sorry, goodbye." Qi Linqing nodded slightly to Lou Wenyao, and walked down the steps with his things.
"goodbye."
A week later, a new issue of "Poverty in the Countryside" was broadcast.
Because of the gimmick that Qi Linqing participated in this episode, it attracted a lot of attention from netizens.
They originally thought that Qi Linqing was a special guest invited by the show, but they didn't expect to find out that his appearance was just a coincidence.
A marketing account broke the news that it turned out that Qi Linqing's studio happened to be sketching in Zhanmei Village, so the program team had the opportunity to shoot.
[Summary in one sentence after watching: Qi Linqing just passed by this episode]
[However, there are still quite a lot of shots of him]
[he is handsome]
[Fuck, is there a professional coming in to explain his sketches, it looks so awesome]
[Didn't it mean that Qi Linqing just started to learn Western painting? ]
[Coordinate xx Academy of Fine Arts, this painting by Qi Linqing is really amazing! ! The scenery is portrayed in detail, and the color tone is also very comfortable to look at. The level is super high, and I am attracted by him]
[Carefully zoom in to see the details, this is completely a master-level sketch! ]
[Too awesome! ! ! ]
[I don't believe he just learned western painting]
[+1]
[Even a genius should not be able to do this? ]
[I dare say that none of our studio teacher's sketches can reach his level]
[Could it be another exaggerated publicity by the program group... ]
[? ? Upstairs, you really think too much]
[Not so not so]
[To be honest, given the environment of Meicun, even if Qi Linqing wanted to learn painting before, he probably had no chance. ]
[It's too bad the family really]
[Then if Qi Linqing really learned this in just two months by himself... His talent in painting is absolutely super strong. ]
[Wait for him to take the joint art exam, when the exam results come out, you will know whether it is true or not]
…
It was only after watching this episode that Tang Quan realized that his nephew Tang Gula and Qi Linqing were in the same studio.
He was still thinking about the ancient painting of Fu Yi and Yuan Sihao that Qi Linqing had in hand, so he quickly asked Tang Gula to act as an intermediary to ask if the other party could come and have a look.
Qi Linqing readily agreed.
So when the next week was off, Tang Quan brought Tang Gula and Yan Jiade specially brought gifts.
When they saw this magnificent courtyard outside, they had already clicked their tongues secretly.
The door was opened from the inside.
The steward welcomed them in respectfully.
Tang Quan looked around the courtyard, and noticed that the small garden by the wall was well maintained, with colorful plants and flowers showing a thriving vitality.
When they entered, several people were already sitting in the room.
Tang Quan recognized Zhong Chen, and smiled and greeted him warmly.
"This is—" His gaze turned to Cai Ji.
Qi Linqing stood up and introduced, "This is my cousin."
"Hello, hello." Tang Quan stepped forward and shook hands with Cai Ji.
Then Tang Quan handed the gift to Qi Linqing. After all, it is not easy to come to see famous paintings by others empty-handed.
He is an antique appraiser himself, and the resources at hand are very loose. This time he gave a Qing Dynasty landscape woodcarving with a market price of about 10,000 yuan.
"You don't need to be so polite." Qi Linqing refused, but had no choice but to take the gift and put it aside.
Yan Jiade rubbed his hands, his expression was a little excited and he couldn't hold back.
"Student Qi, your painting..."
"Student Qi, don't mind, Professor Yan is a crazy fan of Fu Yi, he can't help it." Tang Quan humorously.
Qi Linqing smiled lightly, "It's okay."
He turned his head to look at Zhong Chen, and said, "Those two paintings are hanging in my bedroom, is it convenient for you to pick them up?"
Zhong Chen nodded, turned around and went up the stairs.
He had been to Qi Linqing's bedroom several times before.
When he got to the room, Zhong Chen originally wanted to take the painting and leave.
But there was no one around, he looked at the safe, and a thought popped up in his heart.
He wants to try it.
If the other party is really his master, maybe he will use that string of codes - Fu Yi's birthday.
Zhong Chen coughed lightly, squatted in front of the safe, turned the button lightly, and entered the password.
drop. drop. drop.
[Your password is entered correctly]
Zhong Chen's hand holding the door was almost frozen for a moment, and then began to tremble.
During this period of countless temptations and doubts, none of the answers I got directly this time were as certain.
He wanted to just close the door again like this, pretending nothing happened.
But at that moment, Zhong Chen caught a glimpse of the painting scroll in the box. Its unusual length, width and thickness caught his attention.
In fact, he already had a vague guess in his heart.
Normal paintings, as for locked in the safe
Even those two precious ancient paintings were hung outside by Qi Linqing.
His heart beat faster and faster.
Zhong Chen held his breath, stretched out his hand to take it out, and spread it out carefully.
What I saw was the very familiar and complete "Landscapes of Thousand Miles", which was exactly the same as the one in the museum.
—This is the landscape that Master once said he would record for him.
His eyes were red, and he choked up slightly.
However, in the next moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.
"Zhong Chen, have you found it?"
