Wen Yu was wearing a curtain hat, but Nuan Nuan still recognized him at a glance.
Wen Jiarui naturally recognized them, and was slightly surprised when he saw Wen Yu and Zhu Zhenxuan walking together, but didn't think much about it. Just as he was about to call her, Nuan Nuan pulled his hand.
Only then did Wen Jiarui realize that he was now disguised!
When Zhu Zhenxuan saw that both of their eyes were on Wen Yu, he immediately stretched out his hand to block Wen Yu's face. As if to protect Wen Yu, he walked out while protecting Wen Yu. He glared at the two of them, worried that they would collide with Wen Yu.
Wen Yu also glanced at the two of them and whispered: "Brother Zhenxuan, do you think this person looks a bit like my fourth uncle?"
Wen Jiarui's body stiffened, and Wen Nuan walked forward as if nothing had happened.
Zhu Zhenxuan glanced at Wen Nuan and them: "No, can they afford such good clothes?"
His ex-father-in-law's clothes were washed white, and his whole body was covered in patches. There was no good spot anywhere.
The clothes of these two people are not cheap at first glance. They cost at least two taels of silver a set. Can the person with a poor family afford them
Zhu Zhenxuan felt sick whenever he thought of Wen Nuan and scar-faced Wen Jiarui, all because they made him embarrassed.
Wen Yu sneered: "That's right. My fourth uncle has scars on his face, and his fierce look is scary. Brother Zhenxuan, do you think my painting has improved? Will that person take a fancy to it?"
"Yu'er, your paintings are so good, you will definitely be appreciated by Mr. Xu." Fortunately, I broke off my engagement with that plague god, otherwise I would have no right to be with such an outstanding Yu'er.
Wen Yu smiled after hearing this: "Are you really sure Mr. Xu will come to the auction house today?"
Wen Yu wanted to become Master Xu's master, but was unable to do so.
Master Xu is the Taishan Beidou in the world of calligraphy and painting. His calligraphy and painting have been praised even by the Queen Mother and the Emperor.
His paintings are worth thousands of gold and are collected by competition.
Five years ago, he spread the word that he wanted to recruit a spiritual disciple, but unfortunately he has not received one for so many years.
Master Xu and Taifu Lin have been friends for many years. Because Taifu Lin was the headmaster of Lushan Academy, he heard that Lushan Academy was full of talented people, so he also came over and lived in the academy for a year.
Few people know this, but this year Master Guo was admitted to Lushan Academy as a teacher, and he accidentally found out. Her brother was Master Guo's favorite disciple and future son-in-law, so she knew about it.
However, Master Xu lives in seclusion. She has sent several invitations to visit through Guo Fuzi, but they have all been rejected, so she can only make this last resort.
"I'm sure, I was in the academy that day and overheard it." So today he and Wen Yu came to the auction house to auction paintings, with the purpose of attracting Master Xu's attention.
Zhu Zhenxuan was a student at Lushan Academy, and Wen Yucai looked at him differently.
Because Zhu Zhenxuan is a student of Lushan Academy and the only one in town who has passed the exam, he has a high self-esteem and naturally looks down on people like Nuan Nuan.
Wen Yu felt relieved after hearing this: "Then go in quickly and see where Master Xu is sitting."
A young man from the auction house listened to the conversation between the two and said: "It turns out that girl wants to be Master Xu's teacher. She is really good at painting and has great aura. If Master Xu really comes to the auction, she will definitely be able to enter." caught Master Xu’s eyes.”
Next to him, a Confucian scholar dressed as an old man gave a rare reply: "It is indeed a good painting."
Master Xu is a frequent visitor to their auction house. Every time the auction house receives a good painting, it will notify Master Xu to come and see it. However, except for the people at the auction house, no one else knows about this.
Otherwise, it is estimated that every time their auction house auctions paintings!
Wen Yu hadn't gone far yet and listened to the words of the two of them. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he felt a little more confident.
He raised his chin slightly and walked towards the auction house.
Wen Jiarui glanced at Zhu Zhenxuan's back coldly. Fortunately, Sister Nuan had already broken off the engagement with this gentle scum!
One hundred Zhu Zhenxuan is not worthy of one Nuan Jieer!
He is a man, so he can naturally see the admiration for Wen Yu in Zhu Zhenxuan's eyes. The two of them are so familiar and are neighbors in the town, so they must have known each other for a long time.
There is no point in marrying a man like this who is obsessed with different things, bullies the poor and loves the rich!
Nuan Nuan didn't think too much, she didn't take the two of them seriously at all.
Nuan Nuan pulled Wen Jiarui's sleeve: "Dad, what are you looking at?"
Wen Jiarui came to his senses: "No."
The two came to the reception desk.
Wen Jiarui: "Sir, we have a painting for auction."
The old man nodded, thinking that it seemed that many people knew that Master Xu would come today.
He took out a document and said: "This is the agreement between the two parties to the auction. Take a look at it and see that it can be auctioned only if there are no objections."
Wen Jiarui took it and looked at it seriously.
Nuan Nuan turned her head and glanced. The document was not long, so she read it in one glance. The key point was that goods auctioned in the auction house must pay an auction fee of 20% of the transaction price.
After reading it, Wen Jiarui asked Nuan Nuan for his opinion and then signed.
Nuan Nuan took out a painting, and the old man from the auction house opened it casually. Then he was startled and his expression changed.
He carefully unfolded the entire painting with admiration in his eyes.
He quickly picked up the magnifying glass placed next to him, with slightly trembling hands, and slowly moved the magnifying glass to look at it, the admiration in his eyes getting stronger and stronger.
The young man next to him also lit up his eyes.
He felt that what he just said was too full. Master Xu must have been blind to fall in love with the painting just now!
What is a bit spiritual, compared to this picture, is fart!
―――
The auction house is divided into advanced auction house and ordinary auction house.
Valuable items such as paintings, calligraphy, antiques, and jades are auctioned in high-end auction houses, while ordinary items are auctioned in low-level auction houses.
The two of them got two high-end auction tickets from the old man.
The two of them walked in. At this time, the front row of the venue was already full of people.
Nuan Nuan and Wen Jiarui followed the crowd and sat in a row alone. They also chose a middle seat. There was no one sitting in the row behind them.
Wen Yu and Zhu Zhenxuan are still looking for positions.
Wen Yu's curtain hat had been taken off. She looked around the audience and glanced at every elderly person in the audience. She wanted to see who was Master Xu.
Finally, she felt that the old man sitting in the middle of the middle row, who looked a bit like a fairy, should be Master Xu.
"Brother Zhenxuan, let's go sit there." After saying this, she took the lead and walked over.
There was an empty seat behind the Taoguxianfeng old man, and Wen Yu wanted to sit behind him.
Zhu Zhenxuan was about to say that there was no room anywhere, but when he saw Wen Yu had already walked over, he could only follow him quickly.
Wen Yu sat down. She turned around and looked at an old man in black robe behind her. His clothes had been washed and turned white. The original black was about to turn into dark gray. The cuffs were also a little frayed. He was different from the well-dressed people around him. , out of place.
Wen Yu then said: "Old man, are you here for the auction too?"
Xu Tingzhi's expression was always serious. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and glanced at her: "No, come and take a look."
Wen Yu showed a look that was indeed true!
"Old man, you are not here for the auction. Can you sit in the back? Don't hinder those of us who want to auction things. My eldest brother doesn't have a seat yet!"
After hearing this, Xu Tingzhi had a serious face with no expression, no emotion or anger. He stood up and walked back.
Wen Yu pursed her lips and murmured in a low voice: "A poor guy with no self-awareness at all."
