"Of course, to be honest, if you want to fool me with some vanity, then I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible." Hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen Hongwen's tone became even colder, and he felt that Chen Yi seemed to be exhausted and wanted to use some side-by-side tricks to fool me through the test.

Chen Yi nodded and smiled slightly, "Since my uncle told me the truth, I'm not polite, uncle, but before I tell these defects, I have something that the appraiser will not appraise for others for no reason. Yu Jun and I learn from each other and are friends, so I can identify her paintings without any consideration. So I don't know what my uncle can give me."

"...What are you giving you, and what flaws can you find in your paintings? For no reason, this is something you do to prove your ability." Chen Hongwen was almost choked to death by Chen Yi's words, and then said lightly.

He didn't expect that Chen Yi would seize the opportunity so actively, and his tone was so calm, and there was no disrespect in his words. He had never gained the upper hand in several debates.

"Uncle, what if my answer is enough to satisfy you." Chen Yi said calmly. Although he had a lot of words in his heart to refute Chen Hongwen, too much refutation did not have much meaning. After all, he was not here to hold a debate with Chen Hongwen now.

Hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen Hongwen laughed, "Satisfied, it seems that you are very confident in your ability. OK, if the defects you identified satisfy me, I can promise you any conditions."

Satisfied, he didn't think that Chen Yi, a person who had just been studying for identification for a few months, had the ability to identify the deepest defects in this painting.

Chen Yi nodded, then looked at Chen Yujun's mother. "Auntie, you are very familiar with each other. I want to ask you to judge whether my answer will satisfy my uncle. I hope you can agree."

If Chen Hongwen is cheating, he is unsatisfied. Then who should he ask for reason? Of course, letting Chen Yujun's mother participate is a prevention, and in addition, he has the ultimate weapon.

Chen Hongwen smiled immediately. The boy was afraid of cheating on him. "If your answer really satisfies me, I will never lie. Of course, the question is, can you satisfy me."

"Chen Yi, Old Shen is a person who is just a matter of words, just go and talk about it." Chen's mother smiled. Chen Yi was really flawless in doing things.

"This painting by my uncle is a freehand flower and bird painting method. The main feature of freehand painting is that it can express the author's emotions, not stick to some specific styles and rules, but is completely controlled by his own heart, and paints ink on the painting. According to some of the painting methods of my uncle's painting, it should be based on the unique style of calligraphy created by Wu Changshuo, a famous painter in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. However, Wu Changshuo's flower and bird painting brushes are sophisticated, unrestrained, and thrust through the back of the paper. This is also the style of freehand painting."

Chen Yi smiled on his face, pointed to the painting on the table, and continued, "The picture of the magpies by uncle is somewhat restrained, and he does not perfectly express the freehand paintings. The specific shortcomings are that they are above these flowers and mountains."

Hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen Hongwen's contempt in his heart disappeared a little, and he turned to look at Chen Yi seriously. This painting was drawn by him, and where was the flaw? He knew better than anyone else, and Chen Yi undoubtedly found these flaws of him, but these alone were not enough to satisfy him.

"Uncle, from your painting, I also know how far you have reached your painting ability at that time. Of course, this is also the biggest flaw of your painting. You are too obsessed with the embodiment of shape and ignore the biggest feature of freehand painting. It is to do whatever you want, completely handing the pen to your own heart and your emotions to control, and as a bystander, such freehand painting is undoubtedly the most perfect."

"Although the flowers and mountains on this painting look textured and very rich and practical, this is affected by the shape in the real world, and has not fully released his own mind. To be precise, my uncle's painting can only reach the level of similarity to the form, but not the realm of Wu Changshuo's abandonment of the bondage of form and entering the mind."

Chen Hongwen's expression changed slightly, but waves of storms rose in his heart. He didn't expect that Chen Yi's analysis would be so specific and in-depth. If Gao Cunzhi could do this, he would not be surprised at all. But now standing in front of him was a person who had been studying antique identification for less than a year, how could he calm down in his heart?

"Oh, so, in your eyes, this painting is worthless." Chen Hongwen suppressed the surprise in his heart, and then asked casually. He seemed to believe his daughter's words now. If Chen Yi could really discover the shortcomings of his daughter's paintings and point them out, then his understanding of the paintings would inevitably go further. He could naturally avoid this shortcomings when he painted the next time.

Chen Yi shook his head, "Uncle, if you comment on the value of freehand flower and bird paintings, your painting is not a qualified freehand flower and bird, and it can only be considered a small freehand painting. However, the painting is sometimes just a carrier for the author to express his feelings. Your painting fully expresses your emotions. The whole painting reveals a completely waiting meaning, and with the sophisticated brushwork, so the value should be more than 300,000."

"You are so sure that my painting can reach more than 300,000." Chen Hongwen asked in surprise.

Chen Yi looked at the painting, then smiled and said, "Uncle, as an appraiser, I still have this confidence, and an appraiser's eyesight is beyond ordinary people, so I think you should be a little satisfied with what I just said."

"To be honest, I'm not satisfied..." Chen Hongwen's cold expression had completely disappeared. He said with a smile on his face. Chen Yi gained his attention with his ability, not because Chen Yi was Gao Cunzhi's disciple.

"Old Shen, you are deliberately pretending to be confused." Hearing Chen Hongwen's words, Chen's mother said with a little helplessness, and then glared at him fiercely, meaning that it was almost enough. If Chen Yi was scared away, how could she find such a pleasing person?

Chen Hongwen couldn't help but smile bitterly. Before he knew it, Chen Yi had gained the trust and recognition of his family. Needless to say, Chen Yujun probably also had a great favor for Chen Yi. Now that he has added his wife, even if he is really not satisfied, he will be unable to support himself with one arm.

"Okay, Chen Yi, I fully agree with your identification ability and am very satisfied. Let me tell you, I can agree to you within a certain range of any conditions you have." Chen Hongwen looked at Chen Yi and said with a smile on his face.

Chen Yi's eyes fell on Chen Yujun without hesitation. Chen Hongwen's heart couldn't help but jump. This kid wouldn't have directly asked to marry Yujun.

"Uncle, I have no requirements. This time I came here just for my promise. I don't expect you to let Yu Jun go to Lingnan with me. I just hope that you will not lock Yu Jun in the room again. That's all my request." Chen Yi looked at Chen Yu Jun, and said calmly with gentle eyes.

Hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen Yujun showed a gentle smile on her face. She naturally knew what Chen Yi's promise was, that was, she would definitely protect herself.

Chen Hongwen showed a look of surprise on his face, but he didn't expect that Chen Yi had spent so much Zhou Zhang to put on a trap in different ways just to prevent himself from locking his daughter in the room. From the time Chen Yi stepped into this door, he could be said to have passed their test.

It was their plan to ask Yu Xi to find Chen Yi. Chen Yi could come so without hesitation, so that their daughter's position in his heart can be seen. After Chen Yi took some things into himself, it can be seen that this is a person who dares to take responsibility.

"Chen Yi, do you know why I was dissatisfied before?" Chen Hongwen smiled and looked at his daughter, "That's because I'm not satisfied with this girl Yu Jun that hasn't talked about you for so long. Since you are together just to learn from each other, how could we interfere? Those words of provoking trouble will not have any effect. At the beginning, Yu Jun that girl didn't say who you were, and even made a hunger strike. Now it seems that it's really a bit naive."

Looking at his daughter, Chen Hongwen sighed a little. They were not as unreasonable as parents in feudal society. They were of equal status. With Chen Yi's current ability, as long as he worked hard, his future achievements would be limitless.

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment. When Chen Yuxi found him, he understood what position Chen Yujun was in his heart. But now, when he heard Chen Hongwen's words, he suddenly understood that his position in Shen Yujun's heart was far more heavier than he thought.

"Dad, why are you talking to others about this?" Hearing his father's words, two red clouds appeared on Chen Yujun's face, and he said to Chen Hongwen with some dissatisfaction.

Chen Hongwen couldn't help but smile, "Others, in your eyes, is Chen Yi still another person? Forget it, decide your own affairs yourself. If you want to go to Lingnan, we will not stop it, but Chen Yi, I hope you can take good care of Yu Jun and not let her suffer any harm."

Chen Yi did not think anything was wrong with Chen Hongwen's change. If Chen Hongwen was kind to him as soon as he came in, it would be really inappropriate, not to mention that all this Chen Hongwen did was just for the sake of Yujun.

"Uncle, I will take good care of Yu Jun and will never let her suffer any harm." Chen Yi nodded and said heavily. At this moment, he had completely faced the emotions in his heart.
