Jiang Xiao'e raised her head, glanced at Ouyang Liu, and replied calmly:
"Thanks."
Seeing the beauty's cold response, Ouyang Liu felt unhappy and secretly cursed:
"Why are you pretending to be innocent? When I get you on the bed, you will know how powerful I am."
On the surface, Ouyang Liu remained personable. He reached into his arms calmly and took out an object.
Everyone took a look and saw that it was a necklace.
"Xiao'e, you came here in a hurry. You see, I don't know if you like it or not. When I was in the Magic City, I commissioned a well-known treasure master to order this and give it to you~"
Said and handed it directly to Jiang Xiaoe.
"I'm usually busy performing tasks and can't wear these jewelry. Please put them away quickly. I appreciate them."
Jiang Xiao'e naturally wouldn't ask for a gift from the other party, especially when Chen Fan is still around.
"Xiao Ou, since Xiao'e doesn't like gold and silver jewelry, that's it, haha."
Jiang Qing on the side plays the role of peacemaker.
The main purpose of calling Jiang Wei's family over today is self-evident, which is to help Ouyang Liu and his granddaughter get involved.
Before Ouyang Liu came to Jinling, Jiang Qing's old comrades in Shanghai made a special call to communicate with each other, hoping that the two families could get closer.
Comradeship is precious at all times, so after learning the thoughts of his old comrades, Jiang Qing did not shirk and specially arranged this meal.
"Everyone, please sit down. Xiao'e, Xiaoou has come all the way. You can sit next to me and take care of me. Is that okay?"
Jiang Qing asked with a smile.
Jiang Xiao'e was about to refuse when she saw Chen Fan telling her to forget it, so she didn't say anything and sat silently next to Ouyang Liu.
Jiang Wei and Zhang Xia looked at each other and sat down one after another.
At the banquet, Ouyang Liu frequently showed courtesy to Jiang Xiao'e and kept picking up dishes.
This made Chen Fan, who was sitting opposite, very unhappy.
Since the old man Jiang Qing was sitting in the upper position, Jiang Xiao'e couldn't refuse directly. However, the dish in front of her that was as high as a hill was left untouched.
A somewhat proud Ouyang Liu looked at Jiang Xiao'e and said:
"Xiao'e, are you free in the next few days? Come to Magic City to play.
There will be an art exhibition at the Shanghai Art Museum next Saturday, and many Chinese painting masters will be attending the venue.
There is also an authentic painting of [Mingyue Photo among Pines] that will be on display. "
"Really?! I heard that [Mingyue Photo among Pines] is a work by a painting saint and a mortal master. It is rare to find."
Jiang Chi, the boss of the Jiang family, hurriedly exclaimed after hearing this.
In the past two years, a master named [Fan Chen] suddenly appeared in the Chinese calligraphy and painting world.
It is said that the works of Master Fanchen have a psychic effect. Anyone who appreciates his paintings will have an immersive feeling, which can purify the soul and cultivate sentiments.
After watching it, everyone can get an indescribable magic in their hearts.
More importantly, it is said that Master Fanchen is also highly praised by Mr. Dongfang, the patron saint of the Dragon Kingdom.
In the Dragon Kingdom, Mr. Dongfang is omnipotent, and after appreciating the works of Master Fanchen, this spiritual totem of the Dragon Kingdom declared:
The works of Master Fanchen have been an inspiration to my own cultivation realm!
For a time, Master Fanchen's works became a masterpiece that many warriors rushed to buy.
Unfortunately, not only has Master Fanchen been seen in person, but there are only a few of his works handed down from generation to generation, all of which are regarded as treasures by collectors.
What Ouyang Liu just mentioned, "Photograph of the Bright Moon and Pines", is one of the works of Master Fanchen that has been exhibited more often.
It has been exhibited in several cities including Kyoto, and even someone who offered 10 billion yuan was unable to buy it.
In the painting circles of the Long Kingdom, the works of Master Fanchen are respected.
Therefore, at the Shanghai Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition, when the organizer took out the work "Mingyue Songjianzhu" for promotion, everyone in the entire calligraphy and painting world flocked to it, and the tickets were ridiculously high, even to the point where it was hard to get a ticket.
"Uncle Jiang is right, [Mingyue Photo among Pines] is exactly the work of Master Fanchen.
Each of us, even if we are not talented in calligraphy and painting, can be inspired by the works of Master Fanchen.
My grandfather got some tickets through his connections, hoping that Xiao'e could attend the art exhibition with me and witness the magic of Master Fanchen's calligraphy. "
Ouyang Liu kept showing off, looking towards Chen Fan intentionally or unintentionally.
"Xiao'e, this art exhibition is rare. Xiao Ou is so sincere. Just go and participate next week and treat it as a trip."
Jiang Qing said with a smile.
"Grandpa, I don't know anything about calligraphy and painting. I'm only interested in solving crimes and marksmanship, so I won't go. It's a waste of a ticket."
Jiang Xiaoe refused.
Ouyang Liu didn't expect that the other party would not go, so he moved Master Fanchen out, thinking that Jiang Xiao'e would definitely rush to participate.
But now she can't say it, it must be because she didn't explain it well. Jiang Xiao'e still lacks understanding and admiration for Master Fanchen's works.
"Xiao'e, maybe I didn't explain it clearly just now. Master Fanchen's works not only have a great influence on the world of calligraphy and painting, but anyone can gain from them.
Even Mr. Dongfang highly praised Master Fanchen, which shows how precious he is. "
Ouyang Liu explained again.
"I don't think it's that bizarre. It's just a painting. It's not so exaggerated."
Chen Fan from the side interrupted.
Chen Fan's untimely words made Ouyang Liu furious, and he directly pointed the finger at Chen Fan:
"Brother Chen, may I ask where you are from?"
"I'm from Yuncheng."
"Oh, Yuncheng. What's your level of education?"
"What happened to a regular college degree?"
Chen Fan replied matter-of-factly.
"It's no wonder. People from small places have limited education. Naturally, they have never heard of Master Fanchen, let alone understand the magic of Master Fanchen's works."
Ouyang Liu said contemptuously.
"so what?"
Chen Fan tilted his head and asked with a smile.
"So. You are not qualified to comment on Master Fanchen's works."
Ouyang Liu said with a cold snort.
"Okay. Then I can persuade my girlfriend not to read the works of that master, right?"
Chen Fan asked with a smile.
"Humph, what a joke! If your girlfriend wants to go see it, she must have the qualifications. It's not just for cats and dogs to go."
Ouyang Liu replied contemptuously.
"Xiao'e, since some people say you are not qualified, I think you should not join in the fun."
Chen Fan said to Jiang Xiao'e with a smile.
Hearing Chen Fan's words, everyone was shocked, including the old man Jiang Qing.
What Chen Fan said was too obvious. He actually said Jiang Xiao'e was her girlfriend to her face? !
"Xiao'e, what did he say, you are his girlfriend?"
Ouyang Liu, who was stunned, asked with his mouth open.
The head of the family, Jiang Qing, also frowned. The reason why he called Chen Fan to come to the house for dinner in the morning was because Jiang Wei said that Xiao'e had something to discuss with him.
Who knew they were in love? !
I, the head of the Jiang family, was kept in the dark and yet I was still here to bring together my old comrade’s grandson and Jiang Xiao’e!
So, Jiang Qing looked at Jiang Wei:
"what happened?"
Jiang Wei replied with a clueless expression:
"Dad, I don't know about this either. When did Xiao'e and Xiao Chen get together?"
"Dad, let me tell you. Xiao Chen and Xiao'e are indeed in a relationship. I think it's better for young people to make their own decisions."
Zhang Xia on the side took the conversation and answered seriously.
"Really, Xiao'e?"
Jiang Qing finally looked at Jiang Xiao'e.
"Grandpa, before I have time to tell you, yes, I am in a relationship with Chen Fan, and your granddaughter also likes him."
There was no evasion, Jiang Xiaoe admitted generously.
