Chapter 544 Paintings and Hosta
"But..." Mr. Qiu wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Qiu Muying.
"Grandpa, drink your tea quickly, or it will get cold."
As she spoke, Qiu Muying winked at her grandfather, indicating that he didn't have to worry about it and she would settle the matter.
Later, Qiu Muying poured another glass of wine for Wang Xingduo and said with a smile: "Director Wang, you have misunderstood my grandpa's meaning."
"With your relationship with my husband, of course we know that you will do your best to help us. Of course, if there are really difficulties, we have no choice but to wait. We can't let Director Wang violate discipline.
"
"Yingying, you..." Qiu Muying's words made Qiu Guang and others anxious.
They set up this banquet today and called Wang Xingduo over just to get this approval as soon as possible.
If they could wait, how could they let Qiu Muying and his wife be lobbyists?
Hearing Qiu Muying's words, Mr. Qiu and the two of them were naturally anxious.
However, Qiu Muying winked at them again, telling them not to interrupt, as she had her own countermeasures.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
After Qiu Muying was polite, she changed the topic and said, "By the way, Director Wang, I heard that you are very knowledgeable about calligraphy and painting, right?"
Wang Xingduo was stunned, but he didn't expect that Qiu Muying knew a lot about him. It seemed that he had done a lot of homework before this.
"Yeah." Wang Xingduo nodded, "But it's not really any research. I was just influenced by my father, and I like to admire some calligraphy and paintings, especially the works of ancient Chinese literature masters."
"I don't know, has Director Wang ever seen the paintings of Tang Bohu, the master of traditional Chinese painting in the Ming Dynasty?" Qiu Muying asked with a smile.
When he heard this, Wang Xingduo was stunned and his eyes widened: "Tang Bohu?"
"You mean, the paintings of Tang Yin, the four great talents in Jiangnan?"
"Exactly." Qiu Muying nodded.
Wang Xingduo quickly shook his head and said with emotion: "Tang Yin was the most outstanding painter in the Ming Dynasty, and his artistic achievements were among the best among the entire Chinese culture of thousands of years. Although there are paintings handed down today, each one is a treasure and is frequently sold at auctions.
Tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, can be encountered but not sought after!"
"We are just a civil servant in a small town, how can we have the opportunity to see such treasures?"
"However, if I have the opportunity to see it up close in this life, I will die in peace."
Wang Xingduo sighed.
Seeing this, Qiu Muying continued to smile and said: "Director Wang, I have a painting here. I don't know if it is an authentic painting by Tang Yin. I would like Director Wang to give Chang Yan a look."
"What? Do you really have Tang Yin's painting? Come on, show it to me." Wang Xingduo was also excited and stood up from his seat.
"Don't be impatient, Director Wang. I'll get it right away. But we're not sure whether it's true or not. We have to let Director Wang take a look."
While talking, Qiu Muying asked Chu Wenfei to take the painting out of the bag.
Wang Xingduo couldn't wait to open it, and then a handed down painting slowly unfolded in front of everyone. It was Tang Yin's "Visiting Hermits in Songxi"!
Wang Xingduo wiped his glasses, then bent over his desk, carefully looking at it inch by inch. For those who don't know, he might really think that this Wang Xingduo is a master with great research in calligraphy and painting.
After a long time, Wang Xingduo took off his glasses and rubbed his sore eyes.
"Director Wang, how is it? Is this painting real?" Qiu Muying asked with a smile, her tone was unhurried and she looked like she had the pearls of wisdom in hand.
