Ye Zhenfeng exclaimed: "Jiang Governor's painter is really superb. He actually painted every bridge so lifelike. It's really spectacular!"
Jiang Nanyue said proudly: "My brother is indeed an excellent painter. Mr. Ye, there are a total of 3,800 bridges in this painting. It took my brother six years to complete. I'm afraid there is only one like this in the world today!"
Ye Zhenfeng nodded and said: "That's right! That's right! There is no other such a magnificent scroll in the world!"
Yujuan on the side chuckled and said: "Master Ye, I invited you to come and appreciate the paintings. You really came here to appreciate the paintings! Don't you have something to give to my lady?"
Yujuan thought to herself, you silly boy, you only know how to stare at the paintings, the lady is beautiful and fragrant, don’t you know how to reward my lady?
After Yujuan's reminder, Ye Zhenfeng finally remembered, handed a long brocade box in his arms to Jiang Nanyue, and said very sincerely: "Miss Nanyue, thank you for finding this painting of Thousand Bridges for me." Thousand Moons Picture, you really helped me a lot, here is a gift, as a token of gratitude, it is not disrespectful, please accept it, Miss!"
Jiang Nanyue was at a loss for a moment. She didn't know what Ye Zhenfeng meant by giving her a gift. Is it really just a thank you, or did it mean something else.
A young girl in Huaichun is always prone to overthinking. She couldn't help but blush, and said sheepishly: "Young Master Ye, it's just for viewing paintings. You don't have to spend so much money!"
Yujuan hurriedly took the brocade box for the young lady and said with a smile: "Miss, the contents of this brocade box were personally selected by Mr. Ye for you. Don't you want to open it and see what they are?"
Jiang Nanyue gently opened the brocade box and saw a jeweled necklace lying inside. The fiery red pomegranate was as warm and bright as her heart. Her eyes shone and she said with a shy expression: "Mr. Ye ,Thank you!"
She never expected that Ye Zhenfeng would give her a necklace. A strange man suddenly gave her a necklace, which made people wonder. Could it be that he was also interested in her?
While Ye Zhenfeng turned to look at the painting, Yujuan pulled her young lady over, put her hand in her ear, and whispered softly: "Miss, I have asked for you, Mr. Ye has not married. "
Jiang Nanyue's face turned red again, she bit her teeth lightly, lowered her head and snickered.
Yujuan said again: "I think this Mr. Ye is somewhat interested in you. As soon as he entered Jubaofang, he picked the most expensive jewelry for you. Although this necklace is too gorgeous and tacky, it is not what you usually like, young lady." , but the best thing is that Mr. Ye gave it to me. Miss, if you really like her, you must seize the opportunity!"
Jiang Nanyue cherishes the reserve of a young woman, but at the same time she can't wait to confess her love to Ye Zhenfeng. After all, she is in a dilemma.
I heard Ye Zhenfeng suddenly say: "Miss Nanyue, among the 3,800 bridges in this painting, can you recognize which ones have bronze underworld swords hanging on them?"
Ye Zhenfeng looked up and down at the paintings in front of him. Some of the paintings had bronze underworld swords hanging under them. In some, the bronze underworld swords could not be seen at all due to the angle. He couldn't help but secretly thought that he had made a mistake. How could he be able to do this among these three paintings? Among the thousand and eight hundred bridges, where are the thousand bridges with bronze underworld swords hanging on them?
Jiang Nanyue said: "It is not easy to find the thousand bridges with bronze underworld swords in the paintings. Although I was with my brother when I painted these bridges, six years later, there are so many bridges. , I can’t remember them all, I can only tell part of them, but my brother loves bridges so much that he will remember every bridge he has ever seen, and he must remember which bridges have bronze underworld swords hanging under them.”
Ye Zhenfeng said: "It is very important to me to find those thousand bridges with bronze underworld swords hanging on them. Miss Nanyue, can you find out what you know for me first? After the Sheriff returns home, I'll visit again and ask him to help find the rest."
Yujuan, who was eating melons, lowered her head and snickered, thinking that the visit was all just an excuse. I think you just fell in love with our young lady, so you tried every possible means to find excuses to delay a little longer so that you could see the county governor and beg him to agree to you. marriage.
Yujuan was dreaming of a talented man and a beautiful woman, but she really didn't know that she, the matchmaker, had mistakenly pulled the red string.
Jiang Nanyue looked at the handsome young master in front of her, and of course she would not refuse his request. She just frowned and said, "I can find it for you first, but this painting is precious. I can't leave a mark on the painting. It will be found by then." , how can I tell you which ones have bronze underworld swords hanging on them? Who can remember them?"
Ye Zhenfeng thought for a moment, then took out a bottle of moonlight ink from the Taotie ring. He handed it to Jiang Nanyue and said: "Miss Nanyue, this bottle of moonlight ink is called Yuexia Tears. You only need to put it on the bronze underworld sword hanging on it." Paint a little on the bridge. The ink color is white and light. At night, the mark will become fluorescent and bright, and it will appear naturally. This kind of ink will not damage the painting and can only be seen at night. , and the moonlight ink will automatically evaporate and disappear after three months, ensuring that it will not harm the painting."
Jiang Nanyue trusted Ye Zhenfeng very much and nodded and took the bottle of Yue Xia Tear.
Ye Zhenfeng looked at the night outside the window and said to Jiang Nanyue: "It's getting late. I'll leave this matter to Miss Nanyue. I'll go back to Lan'an Inn to wait. When the county governor returns home, I must inform you on my behalf. I’ll come visit you again later!”
Although Jiang Nanyue wanted to keep him in her house, her brother was not here, so it was inappropriate for her to keep a young man as a guest at home without permission, so she had no choice but to nod and watch him leave reluctantly.
Yujuan went to send Ye Zhenfeng off as usual, and when she came back, she saw that Jiang Nanyue had already picked up the lamp and started to paint.
Yujuan said: "Miss, what are you doing?"
Jiang Nanyue held the bottle of Moon Tears in one hand and the writing brush in the other hand and said, "Of course I'm helping Mr. Ye find the thousand bridges!"
Yujuan pulled her to sit down and said, "My lady, are you stupid? If you found the thousand bridges for him so quickly, what excuse would he have to stay?"
Jiang Nanyue said: "Yujuan, this matter is related to the life of Mr. Ye's friend, how can I be careless? No matter what, I will seize the time to find those bridges for him. Besides, I don't remember them all, and some of them are still waiting for me. We can only find out when my brother comes back, and they will naturally meet by then."
Seeing Jiang Nanyue getting more and more emotional as she spoke, with the spring breeze rippling in the corners of her eyes and brows, Yujuan chuckled, then picked up the red pomegranate necklace on the table, made a gesture on Jiang Nanyue's chest, and said with a smile. : "They will meet naturally by then, and then what? Then let the Sheriff personally select his future brother-in-law, and then make the engagement for you, miss, hehe!"
Jiang Nanyue felt a burning pain behind her ears, and her face was filled with embarrassment.
Yujuan said: "Miss, this red pomegranate necklace is getting better and better every time I look at it! Do you want to try it on?"
Jiang Nanyue nodded, and then said: "Bring the mirror over and let me take a look."
Yujuan took her hand and said: "Miss, this is the study of the Sheriff. The Sheriff doesn't hide in the study to draw his eyebrows. Where do you want me to get you a mirror? I think we should go early tonight. Rest, come to the study again tomorrow morning and start looking for those bridges for Mr. Ye, what do you think?"
Jiang Nanyue also felt a little tired after a busy day, so she nodded and went back to the bedroom with Yujuan.
Yujuan put on the red pomegranate necklace for her. The red agate stone looked bright and warm under the candlelight, making people feel happy and happy.
Jiang Nanyue looked at the red pomegranate necklace in the mirror, and then at herself as pretty as a flower. She couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She reached out and touched her hot cheek, and said with a smile on her face: "Yujuan, you said... then... Is Mr. Ye interested in me?"
Yujuan looked at her and said, "Miss, of course he is interested in you, otherwise why would he buy you such an expensive necklace."
Jiang Nanyue pouted: "Didn't they say it was a thank-you gift?"
Yujuan said: "You don't care what he means. If you really like him, you should seize the opportunity. Don't be sad when the opportunity slips away! Don't forget that he is a knight-errant. When the time comes, he will be your lover." Now that we're gone, don't cry under the quilt."
"You damn girl, what are you talking about?"
"Miss, I'm telling the truth. It's hard for us women to control our own destiny. You don't want to marry a man you've never met and don't like in the future. At least you like Mr. Ye as soon as you see him. He is a person who spends generously, which shows that he is not a poor person. He is also very elegant and his martial arts skills are really good. Where can you find someone who needs good looks, good literary skills, and good martial arts skills? "
"Young Master Ye is indeed a talented person, but for such a good man, he might already have the woman he likes, but I'm afraid the joy will be in vain in the end!" Jiang Nanyue sighed in her heart, stretched out her hand and gently touched the red pomegranate necklace, feeling full of affection in her heart. , but couldn't help but feel terrified.
"Miss, I think your worries are unfounded. Mr. Ye is the lover sent to you by God. It can be said that you two are a perfect match from God!"
Seeing the innocent smile on Yujuan's face, although Jiang Nanyue was a little worried, she still had a sweet smile on her face.
Jiang Nanyue wanted to find those bridges as soon as possible, and spent the next two days searching for those bridges with all her heart.
She found more than 600 bridges among the 3,800 bridges. Some of those bridges can be seen hanging bronze underworld swords in the picture, but some were not drawn because of the angle. Fortunately, She had a good memory and found it out of memory.
That day, she was immersed in looking for those bridges, and the county governor Jiangbeiqiao had returned to his house. Jiang Beiqiao came to the Imperial City this time and after finishing his business, he bought his sister some Muyun Brocade, a specialty of the Imperial City.
He sent Yujuan to deliver it to the young lady, but Yujuan said that the young lady was not in the room. He only felt strange that Jiang Nanyue usually stayed in the room to embroider, but now it was almost dinner time, where would she go.
Yujuan said: "Miss is in the study."
Jiang Beiqiao smiled and walked straight towards the study. He saw that his sister had actually found the picture of Thousand Bridges and Thousand Moons, and was standing on a stool with a paintbrush to sketch.
He frowned slightly, stepped forward and asked, "Nanyue, what are you doing?"
Jiang Nanyue was raising her neck and standing on tiptoes to concentrate on sketching. She suddenly heard someone talking behind her and was startled. She lost her grip on the brush in her hand and fell backwards when her feet gave way. Fortunately, Jiang Beiqiao had quick eyes and quick hands. He quickly stepped forward and caught Jiang Nanyue.
