After Zhao Changqiang retreated, it was Lin Hao's turn to present his gift. After saluting and congratulating him, Lin Hao nervously handed the scroll in his hand to Mr. Wu.

To Lin Hao's relief, Mr. Wu happily took the scroll, opened it with a smile, and kept calling his son, "Ying Xiong, you know how to draw. How about you come and see this painting?"

When Wu Yingxiong saw the scroll unfolded in the old man's hand, he couldn't help being surprised.He is a master of calligraphy and painting, and has collected several works of Chen Xiaodao.He took a look and knew that this was the authentic work of Chen Xiaodao, and its artistic value was very high!

Wu Yingxiong wondered where Lin Hao got the authentic painting of Chen Xiaodao.You must know that although Chen Xiaodao is a contemporary master, his works are rare in the world.

Wu Yingxiong couldn't help taking a deep look at Lin Hao, thinking about it in his heart.This painting by Chen Xiaodao is definitely worth a lot, at least hundreds of thousands!Although Lin Hao's gift was not for himself, it was for his father after all.He has been suspected of bribery!What is his motive?Should I let my father accept this painting?

You know, only Zhao Changqiang and Lin Hao are outsiders here, and they are also people in the officialdom.The others are all members of the Wu family, and they don't hang out in the officialdom, so it doesn't matter what they give to the old man.But Zhao Changqiang and Lin Hao are different, they are very sensitive about what they give.Maybe a good birthday celebration will become bribery.

Zhao Changqiang's gift was okay, but it was just a jar of wine and two chicks.The jar of wine was brewed by himself without even looking at the packaging, so Zhao Changqiang probably didn't spend any money.Besides, based on Wu Yingxiong's understanding of Zhao Changqiang, Zhao Changqiang is not the kind of person who likes to bribe.

But Lin Hao's painting has some problems, it's worth hundreds of thousands!This thing is not something that can be collected casually.

Lin Hao was sitting there waiting for Mr. Wu's evaluation, when he suddenly found Wu Yingxiong's stern gaze sweeping towards him, he couldn't help trembling in his heart, and inadvertently moved his eyes away from Wu Yingxiong.

Mr. Wu has lived to be more than 80 years old. In his words, it is not a skill to pile up mountains of eaten rice, and the dead people I have seen can circle the earth for a week!He glanced at his son's eyes and knew what his son was thinking.

So the old man immediately coughed twice and said, "Ahem, um, Lin Hao, is this painting your own work?"

Although the old man has seen that the signature of the work is Chen Shenshang, he knows nothing about art and has never been interested in it, so he really has never heard of the name Chen Shenshen. Who knows if he is Lin Hao's nickname? ?Since ancient times, people who engage in art have liked to give some strange names.

"Oh, no." Lin Hao said quickly.

"Oh, so it was bought with money? It must have cost a lot of money, right? I can't accept that." The old man said.

Lin Hao couldn't help being surprised, he had worked so hard to get Zhao Changqiang to get this painting for himself, if Mr. Wu didn't accept it, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain?

It must be admitted that when Lin Hao chooses a gift, he thinks more about whether Wu Yingxiong will like it than whether Mr. Wu will like it. Now he seems to be suffering from this idea.

Lin Hao hurriedly stood up and said, "Old man, Vice Governor Wu, I didn't buy this painting. Brother Zhao helped me ask for it from Chen Shanzhang. It didn't cost any money. Vice Governor Wu doesn't trust me, why don't you pay me back?" Can't you trust County Magistrate Zhao? Besides, everyone in the cultural circles knows Chen Shanshen's strange temper, and he never sells his works."

"Grandpa, you can take it with confidence. I can testify that Brother Lin really didn't spend any money on this painting. It cost me a dozen chicken feet, seven or eight salted duck eggs, and a mention of Tsingtao beer." .I have been thinking about finding an opportunity to beat Brother Lin up these two days! Hahaha??????" Zhao Changqiang said with a smile on the side.Everyone in the room couldn't help laughing when they heard Zhao Changqiang's explanation.

Wu Feiling pursed his lips and smiled, while taking another deep look at Zhao Changqiang.She suddenly felt that her father's evaluation of Zhao Changqiang seemed to be quite fair.Whether Wu Feiling is an all-rounder in civil and military affairs is still unknown, but she has a vague feeling that Zhao Changqiang is a bit of a genius.

This point can be seen just by looking at the three gifts that Zhao Changqiang sent today.In fact, brother Wu Feiyu's wine and Lin Hao's paintings must be regarded as Zhao Changqiang's, because they are all obtained from Zhao Changqiang.It's rare that these three things seem to be very pleasing to the old man.

Especially the two chicks sent by Zhao Changqian, it is even more peculiar to see Zhao Changqiang.If it was the first time for ordinary people to pay homage to the deputy governor's old man, they would probably dare not get two little chickens as gifts.But Zhao Changqiang dared to!And the old man just likes it very much!

"This man seems to be really interesting. His world is really unpredictable!" Wu Feiling couldn't help thinking.

Zhao Changqiang seemed to sense Wu Feiling's gaze, and couldn't help but glanced at Wu Feiling with a smile.Feeling Zhao Changqiang's friendly gaze, Wu Feiling unconsciously showed a blush on his face, and then turned his head to the side.

Wu Fei felt that his heart was in a mess.She has always claimed that she is a goddess-like existence, and she has never blushed in front of men, including in front of her boyfriend Swiss Franc Bonaparte.But today, even she didn't know what happened to her.There seemed to be a kind of magical power in the big boy named Zhao Changqiang in front of her, which grabbed her heart tightly and made her want to stop.

But Wu Feiling didn't know that the seemingly casual exchange of eyes between her and Zhao Changqiang just now was caught by his boyfriend Rui Lang.

Rui Lang stared at Zhao Changqiang for a full minute, and his hatred for Zhao Changqiang grew stronger in his heart.This guy has always regarded Wu Feiling as his goddess, and now that Zhao Changqiang is flirting with his goddess, how could he not hate Zhao Changqiang.

But now it was Mr. Wu's birthday banquet after all, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, he could only bury his hatred for Zhao Changqiang in his heart, waiting for the opportunity to explode.

At this time, other people's attention was focused on Mr. Wu and the painting, but no one noticed the small movements between Zhao Changqiang, Wu Feiling and Rui Lang.

After hearing Zhao Changqiang's words, Mr. Wu said with confidence: "Okay, since that's the case, then I will accept this painting with a smile. Haha, Ying Xiong, you haven't said anything about this painting yet!"

Wu Yingxiong had vaguely heard about the grievances between Zhao Changqiang and Chen Xiaodao back then.It can be said that the main reason why the original Chen Xiaodao became the current Chen Shenshen was because of Zhao Changqiang!

With the relationship between Zhao Changqiang and Chen Xiaodao, it shouldn't be difficult for him to get Chen Xiaodao's authentic work.So after hearing Zhao Changqiang's words, he dispelled his doubts and no longer planned to let his father refuse to accept the painting.

"Dad, what do you think?" Wu Yingxiong knew his father's temper. When it came to art appreciation, his opinions were always at odds with his own.If he says that his painting technique is good, he must say that his artistic conception is good.If he said that the artistic conception is good, he must say that the painting method is good.Therefore, Wu Yingxiong simply asked the old man to express his opinion first.

"Hehe, I think this painting is very good, it seems that it was specially drawn for me. You see, the river in front represents the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and the mountains behind represent the life that is not as old as Nanshan! Haha, and this sunset , This means that the sunset is infinite, okay! The person above who is idling in the waves is me! But there are so many children in the water in the back painting, which is really a bit of a fly in the ointment. Hahaha?????? "

Listening to Mr. Wu's appreciation, Zhao Changqiang, Wu Yingxiong and the others couldn't help but stare at each other, stunned.Master Chen's meditation picture rich in Zen was actually interpreted by the old man in this way!This is too weird.

"Ying Xiong, what do you think of what the old man said?" The old man held the painting in his hand, and after making some comments, he still proudly asked his son for his opinion.My son is a master in calligraphy and painting appreciation, so of course he needs to comment on it.

"Good, good! Dad's ability to appreciate paintings has greatly improved again! I can't even catch up. Hahaha." Wu Yingxiong said to his father with a smile.

Today is the old man's birthday, and everything is to make the old man happy.Besides, in art, the benevolent sees benevolence, and the wise see wisdom, as long as you can have your own insights.

Wu Yingxiong originally thought that this time he said it completely according to the old man's wishes. The old man would definitely not argue with him this time, right?Unexpectedly, just after he finished speaking, the old man glared at him and said, "Nonsense, I really thought I didn't know anything about painting. Even if I don't know how to paint, I can read. It's clearly written "Picture of Meditation" Well! People are as calm as a mountain! Good, good, the painting is good, the calligraphy is better, and the meaning is even more superhuman."

At the end of the old man's speech, he casually uttered a doggerel, "One day I will step on the clouds and look at the dreamer in the world with a smile. This painting is good for the elderly, and even better for the officials! No matter what kind of occupation a person is in , no matter what height you reach, as long as you can calm down, you will never lose your original heart, and you will never drift with the tide and spend your life in a busy life. Hahaha, good painting, good painting!"

Zhao Changqiang, Lin Hao, Wu Yingxiong and others looked at each other again, stunned, even Wu Yingxiong couldn't see what level his father was.Xin said: "Oh? When did the old man's art appreciation ability reach such a high level? Hey, it's even well-spoken!"

Lin Hao saw that the old man not only accepted his gift, but also seemed to like it very much, a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.He knew that perhaps coming to celebrate the birthday of the old man of the Wu family today would not be of any help to his career, but if he really asked Wu Yingxiong for something one day, as long as it was not something that violated discipline or was too much, Wu Yingxiong would probably be able to do it. Open yourself up.

Lin Hao felt relieved, but Mr. Rui Lang felt even more upset.He kept thinking about how to make trouble for Zhao Changqiang and make him look ugly.

What this guy didn't expect was that after the banquet started, Zhao Changqiang didn't make a fool of himself, but he made a big fool of himself first!
