Boundless Sky

Chapter 267: Like a dream, like a phantom

"Getting married..."

A trace of confusion appeared in Cheng Hao's eyes, and he took a sip of the rice wine on the table.

He doesn't drink well, and he will get drunk after two drinks, but he still likes to take a sip occasionally, which is one of the few hobbies.

"Cai'er, do you think anyone wants me like this?"

"Uncle, don't make excuses. Regarding your status, although you have never been a jinshi, you are still a man; as for talent and appearance, even if you are older, you are still a person of both talent and appearance. If you want to marry, you may not Opportunities, but there are a lot of Xiaojiabiyu, how can no one want it?"

Maybe it's because she reads and writes a lot. Although Cai'er is not too old, she matures much earlier than the average girl. She sees many things more thoroughly than some adults.

"Cai'er, don't ask him."

The old man who had been eating silently and barely spoke very much, he couldn't help sighing, and shook his head, looking helpless.

"I have mentioned the old man about Hao'er's marriage many times, but he always finds all kinds of reasons to shirk, but he doesn't want to start a family... Old man, I have no children, so I think of Hao'er. His own son looked at it. In a few years, he would leave this shop with two legs.

Although we can't leave him with much family business, there are still some family properties. On his terms, there are so many girls in the suburbs of Beijing who want to marry him. Many matchmakers have come here in the past few years, but it's a pity , Haoer is a child with a stubborn temper and a high spirit. If he is not a jinshi, he just refuses to marry a wife. It is useless to persuade him! "

When the old man talked about it, he looked helpless. He knew he would not live for a few years, so he wanted to see Cheng Hao marry a wife and have children before he left, so he could feel at ease, but unfortunately, this kid just didn’t. Dao!

"Old man, uncle, he is not high-spirited, this is someone in his heart... Uncle, have you ever had a marriage contract with another girl before?" Lan Cai'er was full of curiosity.

"No, don't guess. I have neither a marriage contract nor other women in my heart. I just don't want to marry a wife."

Cheng Hao shook his head dumbfoundingly. He didn't dislike women, but he always dreamed that he was an immortal in his dreams, and he was the kind of immortal who flies away from the sky and catches the moon, thinking of marrying a mortal woman. , He will feel irritable involuntarily.

"Uncle, don't you still worry about the fairy in the dream? No matter how good the fairy is in the dream, is that also a dream?"

Lan Cai'er also knew about Cheng Hao's frequent dreams that she became an immortal. She used to just listen to it as a joke, but now it seems that this matter has become the demon of her uncle.

Cheng Hao laughed and stopped answering. He picked up the rice wine on the table and took a big sip. Then he walked to the desk and continued to paint if no one else was around. What do you like to say, anyway, I just don’t The appearance of marrying a wife and having children!

Upon seeing this, Lan Cai'er and the old man looked at each other, and stopped persuading. After finishing the table, Cai'er walked up to Cheng Hao, looking at the flying fairies in the painting, showing her obsession. color.

"Uncle, your painting skills have improved again!"

...

Time is hurried, and another three years have passed.

Cheng Hao is still unsuccessful, but although he seems to have no relationship with official career, his achievements in calligraphy and calligraphy are getting better and better. In the suburbs of Beijing, his calligraphy and calligraphy are already quite famous, and many officials' homes and scholars First, people will be sent here just to buy a copy of Cheng Hao's calligraphy and painting.

In recent years, the price of Cheng Hao's calligraphy and painting has risen all the way, from one or two silver to gold, and in the end it is worth twenty gold.

Not only that, but Cheng Hao's rules for selling calligraphy and painting are becoming stricter. He only sells one set of calligraphy and painting at the beginning of each month.

But the more so, the more people are willing to spend a lot of money to ask for a calligraphy and painting. It is said that the calligraphy and painting sold by Cheng Hao in his early years have now been fired up to the price of one hundred gold. Faintly, Cheng Hao even has a painting fairy. title.

In his paintings, whether it is landscapes, flowers, birds, or various characters, all reveal a sense of immortality. For mortals who yearn for the life of immortals, they cannot become immortals. Buying a painting and calligraphy of Cheng Hao and keeping them at home is also true. excellent!

Lan Cai'er is now a thirteen-year-old girl, and she is also a talented woman in the suburbs of Beijing. People who come to propose relatives are in an endless stream. In order to avoid suspicion, the time for Cai'er to come to Chenghao's shop is increasing. The less, it is estimated that if you marry someone in the future, I am afraid that there will be no chance to come over again.

Cheng Hao feels very sorry about this. He almost grew up watching this child. Although he is not very old, he has a high talent for painting and calligraphy. If he can study with him for a few more years, he will be very talented in the future. There is hope to become a generation of calligraphy and painting masters, but as a woman, it is inevitable to marry after all, which makes Cheng Hao feel a bit pity.

Walking slowly to the door, Cheng Hao took a drink, looked at the street outside the store, moved a stool, and sat quietly at the door.

It was already winter. At this time, some snowflakes gradually fell in the sky. Slowly, the snowflakes became larger and larger. The first snow of this year, silently, fell from the sky.

The temperature suddenly cooled down.

Snow hit Cheng Hao's face and quickly melted into ice water. He looked up at the dim sky. After a long time, a confused look appeared on his face.

Over the years, although he has been living his ordinary little life day after day, but for some reason, he always has an unreal feeling in his heart. He always feels that he does not belong here. The endless sky seems That's where he should go.

Perhaps because of the cold and snow, the endless stream of matchmakers in the shop next door also disappeared today. After drinking two sips of wine, Cheng Hao was about to enter the house, only to find that Lan Cai'er was walking towards him with red eyes.

"Uncle!" Cai'er's voice was crying, and tears fell down before she walked in.

"What's wrong, did your parents scold you?"

"No... but they promised me out! I'm only thirteen and I don't want to marry. I want to stay with my uncle and study for a few more years!" Cai'er looks very wronged, not to her parents. With her permission, she was allowed out, somewhat complaining in her heart.

"Really...Which young talent did you give to?" Cheng Hao sighed. After all, this is someone's housework. Although he has a small position in the capital now, he can't just intervene in this kind of thing. of.

"I don't know, I inadvertently listened to what my father told the matchmakers this morning, saying that they have already made me a match, so that they don't have to come again!"

"If you want to start something, maybe it's just that your dad finds a reason to send those matchmakers away... Cai'er is so cute, which parent is willing to marry you out so early?" Cheng Hao didn't know what to say, just Can be so comforted.
