C205 The Word 'gift
After dinner, Chai Cai proudly showed off the calligraphy that Lin Sen had just written for her aunt. Just like how a little girl would always tell the strengths of a lover to the little sisters, she showed it in front of Mi Ann. Mi Ann did not pay much attention to it at first, but when she took a closer look, she was stunned. Since she was known as an all-around appraiser, she must have seen a lot of masterpieces from ancient times. However, the words in front of her had a different meaning. It contained a type of otherworldly flavor, very matching to the artistic conception of these four words. This was definitely not any technique that she knew. When she looked at the signature again, she instantly understood.1
"Did Lin Sen write it?" Although he already had an answer, he still asked.
"Yes, I started to practice writing in the afternoon. I reached this level before dinner. Aunty, what do you think?" Being cocky made him even more arrogant.
" Good, very good. Your Island Master Lin is a peerless genius. This should be enough, right?" Mi Ann helplessly praised him. She could tell that her niece was completely finished. She only had Island Master Lin in her eyes. He did not even make drafts when he boasted. It was already good enough that he could reach this level of writing since he was young, but he spent half a day here from zero. This was absolutely impossible.
"I knew it. Aunty, you wouldn't believe it. Come, take a look at this. This was the first few words that Island Master Lin had written. He had torn it off. I took the opportunity to hide it while he was carving." In order to prove to her lover, Chai Cai had also gone through painstaking efforts!
Mi Ann picked it up to take a look and did not believe it at all," You are playing with little aunt. From this level to this level, do you think that it can be done in an afternoon? "
"Forget it, forget it. Aunty, if you don't believe me, then don't believe me." Chai Cai helplessly smiled and planned to roll up the words and leave.
"What are you doing? Leave the words behind. You can leave now." Mi Ann patted Chai Cai's head. This kind of thing was already placed in front of her but she still wanted to take it away!
Chai Cai definitely could not agree and immediately said, "This is for my office. Aunty, you want Island Master Lin to write another one? That's right. Just say what you want. I'll get him to write it for you right away."
" Think of it as a good one. You can write it with a wave of your hand. It can be done easily. This requires the artistic conception. " Mi Ann said unhappily. Young people nowadays really did not understand anything.
"It's not that complicated. Let's go. I'll take Aunty to find Island Master Lin to write. If you're not satisfied with his writing, then... Take this one of mine. If you're satisfied with what I write, aunty, promise me one condition. " Chai Cai said in an unconvinced manner.
"Other than the matter of your relationship and marriage, everything else is negotiable." Mi Ann smiled. How could it be so easy to dig a hole for her?
"Okay, it is definitely not a relationship marriage." Chai Cai gritted her teeth. Although she did not achieve her goal, she could change the conditions. It might be useful at any time.
She went to Lin Sen's house but was unexpectedly not there. Chai Cai could only call Lin Sen and tell him her intentions. Lin Sen returned with Tian Yu in a few minutes. He prepared the paper, ink, and inkstone and asked, "Auntie, what are you going to write and where are you going to use it for?"
"The writing will carry the road. Hanging it up in the study or the office." Mi Ann thought for a moment and did not have any good ideas. Or rather, she could think of too many things and did not know how to choose.
Lin Sen thought for a while and prepared. He picked up the brush and said the four words "Wen Yi Dao." Mi Ann was stunned. She could not believe what she saw. At that moment, she seemed to have seen the breath of history. She saw a heavy Qi and looked at the four words again. It gave people a sense of tranquility and heaviness.
"Good word. In the past, I only knew the word world-shocking genius. Today, I finally understand the meaning of this word. Little Lin, you have given Auntie a huge surprise!" This sentence, xiao Lin... It was equivalent to throwing aside all other identities and completely standing on the status of an elder. At this moment, it was the same as Mi Ann agreeing with Lin Sen.
"Auntie has praised me. My insignificant skills are not worth mentioning." Lin Sen changed a pen and wrote down the words gift to Ms. Mi Ann at the bottom right corner. He took out the seal and completed the last step.
The eye on the face was attracted again. It stared at the seal and asked in disbelief, "Which one did you carve in the afternoon?"
"Yes! I couldn't find a professional sculptor so I had to do it myself. Fortunately, I didn't destroy a piece of jade. " Lin Sen was being too modest. With his level of skill, how could he cripple a piece of jade?
At this moment, Mi Ann suddenly heard what Chai Cai had said to him. In her heart, she somewhat agreed. She felt that Island Master Lin really could soar into the sky and shock the Nine States. She said with some embarrassment," Little Lin, can you help Auntie write another word? "
"Auntie is treating me as an outsider. Not to mention the relationship between Lanlan and me, just based on you helping me to unhesitatingly appraise these antiques, not to mention one, even a hundred of them would not be a problem. Auntie, what do you want to write?" It was a small matter, and Lin Sen did not think that there was much of a problem with it.
"Little Lin! Listen to what Auntie has to say. In the future, no matter who you give this word to, you can't write more. Not to mention that the rarer something is, the more valuable it is, you can't write more about the ways of the world. Do you understand? " Mi Ann could tell that Lin Sen did not care, but there were some things that you had to care about, so she mentioned Lin Sen along the way.
"Understood. Thank you for your teachings, auntie. I will remember it." Lin Sen thought about it and understood. It was written for everyone. He was afraid that he would tire himself to death on the desk in the future. This was the same as Thunder Sound Island not having an internal reservation. If one wanted to eat, they could order it by themselves. No one could go to the back door.
"It's good that you understand. Auntie wants to ask for a word from Lanlan's father. She wants to hang him up in the office. He has a lot of face. Lanlan's father is an official. Let's write 'Home, country, and All Life in the World'! Lanlan's father's surname is Zeng, and his name is Mingxuan. " As she spoke, Mi Ann was afraid that Lin Sen would write incorrectly, so she wrote down her name.
Lin Sen nodded and closed his eyes to think. An invisible aura was slowly gathering. Suddenly... Lin Sen opened his eyes and took a pen to write "Home, kingdom, and All Life in the World." At this moment, not only Mi Ann's eyes were wide open, even Chai Cai and Tian Yu's eyes were wide open. When Lin Sen was writing just now, it was as if there was a gas attached to the words with Lin Sen's pen bit by bit. This was something that even Lin Sen himself did not know about.
"Righteous Qi, gather Qi and condense words. Little Lin, remember this. You can't write too many words. When I wrote it for Auntie just now, auntie didn't see through it, but she understood these six words. Sigh! Auntie has taken advantage of you. Forget it. Now that things have come to this, just treat it as that Auntie and Lanlan's father owe you a favor. " To tell the truth, if Lin Sen was any famous master, she would not ask for this word. It was because Lin Sen was young, and there were all kinds of coincidences. But she did not expect to see the legendary scene.
"Auntie, you're too polite. It's just a few words. It's no big deal. Do you want to place the signature? " Lin Sen really felt that it was nothing. Although he felt that these words were a little exhausting, just these words alone... He could write dozens of them in one night. At this moment... He did not realize that his current realm... Due to various factors, he had reached a certain level.
Mi Ann hurriedly nodded her head, "Put down the money and write it as a gift to Zeng Mingxuan on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year."
