Chapter 1371 Painting, Lili lives in the compound
"Wow, this is a screen. Did you carve it too? It feels so historical."
Peng Yongli saw a wood-carved screen in Zhou Chen's house and was very surprised. In this era, you can hardly see such antique wood-carved screens anymore. Even if they do exist, they are usually found among wealthy people. In Zhou Chen
Seeing it here, she thought it was carved by Zhou Chen himself.
Zhou Chen explained with a smile: "I really didn't carve this. I bought it from someone else. It's a real antique."
"What an antique."
Peng Yongli became more interested. She majored in Chinese and knew that antiques like this were becoming increasingly rare. It was indeed not easy to see real antiques.
Ma Yan looked at Zhou Chen and Peng Yongli who were so engrossed in chatting and didn't care about her at all, and showed a meaningful smile.
Thinking of what Peng Yongli said to her, and that she was not interested in Zhou Chen, looking at his attitude and eyes, she wanted to live in Zhou Chen's house. If this was not interesting, wouldn't the relationship between her and Wang Xin be purer?
She had no intention of staying here as a light bulb, so she stood up.
"Um, Zhou Chen, I have to go to Wang Xin's house again. Lili, how about you stay here and I'll call you later after dinner?"
"OK."
Peng Yongli agreed without thinking. She and Wang Xin didn't know each other, so going to Wang Xin's house would not be as attractive to her as staying at Zhou Chen's house.
Seeing this, Ma Yan became even more certain that this girl was hopeless, but considering Zhou Chen's ability, it wouldn't be a loss if Peng Yongli could get along with Zhou Chen.
"Ma Jian, let's go with sister."
"okay."
Ma Jian looked at the candies on the table reluctantly. Zhou Chen walked over, grabbed a handful and put it into his pocket, and rubbed his head.
"I'll give it all to you, but don't eat too much sugar, otherwise your teeth will fall out."
"Okay, brother."
After the Ma Yan siblings left, Zhou Chen continued to take Peng Yongli to appreciate his masterpiece. Peng Yongli was also very interested in it and kept communicating and asking Zhou Chen.
After all, Ma Yan ignored her father's obstruction and took a leg of lamb to Wang Xin's house.
"Oh my god, with such a big leg of lamb, will your family get rich?" Wang Xin was very surprised when he saw the leg of lamb sent by Ma Yan.
Ma Yan said angrily: "Don't you know whether my family will make a fortune or not? My uncle Peng brought this from Harbin."
"oh."
Wang Xin knew about Peng Mingjie. He heard Ma Yan mention it before. Later, when he and Ma Kui went to Harbin, Ma Kui also went to Peng Mingjie's house.
Ma Yan said enthusiastically: "Wang Xin, let me tell you, Uncle Peng's daughter Lili, she and Zhou Chen..."
"What? Zhou Chen is in love with Uncle Ma's friend's daughter?"
Wang Xin was shocked after hearing this, and then thought of something.
"When we were having dinner at Zhou Chen's house a few years ago, I heard Cai Xiaonian and Niu Dali mention that Zhou Chen seemed to be having sex with a female college student. That Lili is a college student. Could it be that she was the one he was talking about?"
"That should be the case. I heard Lili say that Zhou Chen bought their tickets back to Harbin for them, and Lili's attitude towards Zhou Chen is something that everyone can see is fishy, ​​and so can Zhou Chen. I used to be able to
I've never seen him treat any girl so well, but you haven't seen that his attitude towards Lili is obviously different from others."
"Tsk tsk, that's such a coincidence. Let's go over and take a look. I haven't seen what that Lili looks like."
Ma Yan grabbed Wang Xin who was about to walk out: "What are you doing? It's a rare time for two people to be alone together. What are you thinking of interrupting me?"
"Yes, isn't this too curious? That guy Zhou Chen usually looks 'prude'. I thought he was not interested in women, but I didn't expect that he has a big move. Female college student, no wonder Cai Xiaonian said it
When I saw him, he looked full of admiration."
At meal time, Ma Yan left Wang Xin's house and went to Zhou Chen's house to ask Peng Yongli to go back for dinner. Wang Xin still couldn't help being curious and followed her.
When they came in, they happened to see a strange scene. They saw Peng Yongli sitting there upright, and Zhou Chen had a drawing board in front of him and was painting seriously.
Seeing this scene, the two of them did not interrupt. They both slowed down, walked quietly behind Zhou Chen, and looked at Zhou Chen's drawing board.
When they saw this, they all looked shocked. They saw that most of the paintings on Zhou Chen's drawing board had been completed and were being colored at the moment, but the quality could already be seen.
Wang Xin thought he had some talent in painting, but when he saw Zhou Chen, he felt ashamed. The gap was really too big.
Although she couldn't bear to disturb this beautiful scene, Ma Yan still spoke.
"Ahem, Lili, the meal is ready, my dad called us back to eat."
"ah."
Peng Yongli suddenly looked disappointed. She wanted to wait until Zhou Chen finished the painting before reading it.
Zhou Chen stopped writing and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, your voice and appearance have been imprinted in my mind. I can finish the rest of the coloring by myself. You can go eat first."
Ma Yan shuddered: "Hey, it has been imprinted in my mind, Zhou Chen, these words really don't seem to come from your mouth."
Wang Xin interjected: "Whatever you say to someone, he will definitely not say that to others."
Peng Yongli blushed with embarrassment. Zhou Chen's words were indeed a bit explicit, but she didn't feel offended at all. Instead, she felt secretly happy in her heart.
Ma Yan left with Peng Yongli. Before leaving, Peng Yongli said, "I'll come back after dinner."
Wang Xin slapped Zhou Chen on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay, I thought you had a reason for not talking about a partner in the past few years. It turns out that you are so wild and want to find a female college student."
Zhou Chen snorted coldly: "It's superficial. There are so many female college students. Why don't I go find someone else? Things like the person you want to talk to depend on your eyesight."
"Hey, you are just a prude."
Wang Xin looked disdainful, then straightened his face: "I heard from Ma Yan that this Lili is the daughter of Uncle Ma's friend. Let me tell you, if you really fall in love with her, you have to treat her well.
Don't act recklessly, it will be hard to tell Uncle Ma when the time comes."
"Hey, when will it be your turn to teach me how to do things? You should think carefully about how to convince Uncle Ma so that you can be with Ma Yan."
"I am taking precautions for you in advance. The matter between Ma Yan and I is not urgent. It will happen sooner or later."
Wang Xin felt a bit toothache when he talked about his affair with Ma Yan. In fact, in private, he and Ma Yan had hugged and kissed each other, but they never dared to show it, just because of Ma Kui. If Ma Kui knew,
Not sure how to fix it.
Neither he nor Ma Yan could convince Ma Kui, but they had made up their minds. They were both still young anyway, so if they persisted, Ma Kui would agree sooner or later.
Zhou Chen glanced at Wang Xin.
"Aren't you leaving yet?"
"Where to go?"
"Go home for dinner. It's almost time for dinner. Why are you staying here if you don't go back?"
"Is it time to eat?"
Wang Xin looked surprised, suddenly slapped his thigh, and shouted: "Oh, I forgot to cook, forget it, I'll just have a meal at your place."
"You really don't have any shame at all."
Zhou Chen had a sneer on his face. When Wang Xin refused to leave, he already knew Wang Xin's plan. This boy's face was really shameless.
Wang Xin smiled mischievously and asked: "I see you haven't cooked yet, what should we eat for lunch?"
Zhou Chen didn't argue with him, but walked over and picked up the leg of lamb sent by Ma Yan.
"With ready-made ingredients, let's make mutton soup for lunch."
"Mutton soup? No problem, I like it. Mutton soup and wine are very good. I'll go back and get a bottle of wine."
The Ma family was also very lively. With the addition of father and daughter Peng Mingjie and Peng Yongli, Ma Kui seemed to have opened up a chatterbox and kept talking.
Peng Yongli and Ma Yan both finished their meal in a hurry, then left home together and went to Zhou Chen's home.
When they arrived, Zhou Chen and Wang Xin were drinking. Seeing them coming, Wang Xin took the initiative and said, "Zhou Chen has cooked mutton soup. Do you want some?"
"No, we just ate and we're not hungry anymore. You can eat."
In the afternoon, Zhou Chen colored Peng Yongli's painting under the watchful eyes of Wang Xin and others. When the painting was completed, Peng Yongli couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
It cannot be said to be a 100% restoration. This painting is not as vivid as the real person, but in Peng Yongli's eyes, she is more beautiful in this painting than herself. She does not think she is very beautiful, but she feels that this painting makes her look more beautiful.
The painting is much more beautiful.
"Thank you, this is the best gift I have ever received." Peng Yongli felt as if she had found a treasure.
Ma Yan was so envious that her teeth were sore. Although she didn't have any feelings about painting, the painting Zhou Chen painted for Peng Yongli was obviously extraordinary. What woman wouldn't like to be painted beautifully.
