After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

Chapter 176 Mother, do you have anything to say to me?

However, no matter what Zhou Qinghe wanted to do, she was helpless now.

She was being watched so closely that she simply stopped going out.

After pouring out the night incense, he returned to his room and fell asleep, sleeping until noon. His schedule was different from everyone else.

Qin Yaoguang did not lack food and drink.

Whenever she went to the kitchen, she could find food.

There is no restriction on her freedom.

However, she was only nine years old. Even if she was allowed to leave the imperial farm, she could not even tell the direction and had no money. She had no choice but to stay.

The servants serving in the villa were all brought by Qin Yaoguang from the capital. They knew that she would be disliked by the princess if she made mistakes, and that the servants implicated by her would have a bad end, so they did not dare to talk to her.

Even if Zhou Qinghe took the initiative to show her goodwill, he still avoided her like the plague.

Not being accepted by everyone, I feel like a wandering soul.

Even though there were so many people in the yard, Zhou Qinghe felt like he was in prison.

Humans are always social animals, and this situation made her feel empty and tormented.

The hot spring she enjoyed last time had nothing to do with her.

Every night, Zhou Qinghe heard the laughter coming from the hot spring pool, but was stopped outside when she wanted to get closer.

Qin Yaoguang did not do it on purpose, but Zhou Qinghe's current situation was exactly the same as the emptiness and despair of the original owner who was trapped in the Princess's Mansion.

If the original owner knew about this, he would definitely be very happy.

The time spent in the villa is leisurely and pleasant.

Qin Yaoguang took a few steps back, looked at the "Eight Immortals Celebrating a Birthday" spread out on the desk, and nodded with satisfaction.

In the villa, her regular schedule of going to bed early and getting up early, exercising moderately every day, and soaking in hot springs at night not only makes her body healthier, but also makes it easier for her to enter the flow state when painting and concentrate on her work.

The progress in just a few days was much faster than expected.

Now, the whole painting has been preliminarily completed, and only the details and overall adjustments remain.

On the long horizontal scroll, it seems as if the heavenly palace has reappeared.

The Lingxiao Palace, built above the sky, is magnificent and splendid, shrouded in clouds and mist, like a dream.

The Eight Immortals were dressed in auspicious birthday attire, with fluttering fairy belts, and had childlike faces and white hair. They presented birthday gifts with sweet smiles.

Li Tieguai held an iron staff in one hand and drew out a blazing fire from the gourd behind him with the other hand, burning out a pure fire lotus.

Han Zhongli waved the brown fan in his hand calmly, and a purple gold pill was held in his palm, shining with golden light.

Zhang Guolao was riding a white donkey upside down, holding a white and rosy peach in both hands. Even the leaves were as transparent as jade, and it was obvious at first glance that it was no ordinary peach.

The other five immortals all appeared vividly and presented different birthday gifts.

If it weren't for the border of this picture, the scene in the painting would seem to be happening right before your eyes.

I have never seen such a real fairy!

Whether it is the statues in the temple or the paintings by literati and poets of all dynasties, none of them is as real as the painting before us.

Guyu Hanlu, who was serving her behind her, was dumbfounded.

Chun Ning exclaimed repeatedly: "Oh my God! If I hadn't watched you draw it bit by bit, I wouldn't have believed it!"

Since arriving at the villa, she practiced calligraphy and played the piano while Qin Yaoguang was painting.

Originally, Chun Ning also spread out a piece of rice paper and wanted to paint the beautiful scenery in front of the window with great interest. However, after seeing Qin Yaoguang's painting, she decisively gave up this idea.

There was no other reason, it was just that she was greatly shocked by her sister's painting skills.

Chun Ning asked himself, is it true that he is a person without insight?

But she had never seen a painting like this, so beautiful, so vivid, and so real.

The light, shadow and clouds in the painting are magnificent.

The Eight Immortals in the painting seem as if they were seen in person.

Chun Ning's eyes were almost glued to the painting, but Qin Yaoguang smiled lightly and breathed a sigh of relief: "I haven't painted such a large painting for a long time. Fortunately, I am not rusty yet."

Even in modern times, with handy tools like computer PS and drawing tablets, this group portrait is not simple.

Now, after nearly a month of work, we have finally achieved success.

As of now, the whole painting is already very complete.

However, there is still time and it can be even more exquisite.

Qin Yaoguang counted the pigments and found that the most important pigment was almost used up, and there was not even a single drop of the gold and silver colors that would be used in large quantities.

But in her plan, the outlines of the Eight Immortals' clothes and some of the patterns should be outlined in silver.

Gold is indispensable and can add the finishing touch.

Seeing her frown, Chun Ning took the initiative to ask: "Sister, what's wrong?"

Qin Yaoguang was not sure whether Da Jingchao had these two colors, so she pointed at the painting and explained her plan.

Chun Ning smiled and said, "It's not difficult for you to get these two colors, my sister. Just send someone back to the palace and ask our mother for them."

Qin Yaoguang thought: So it is a special supply from the palace and cannot be found among the people?

No wonder, when she asked people to pack their bags, she clearly asked them to buy all the paints, but in the end these two types were still missing.

Qin Yaoguang stared in deep thought.

Before coming, she had instructed Madam Deng that any disturbance in the Cui family or the palace should be reported immediately.

So far, it is still calm.

She was worried about having no excuse, and going back to the palace to ask for paint was a perfect opportunity.

But she definitely can't go back, so who should she send?

Several names came to mind, and Qin Yaoguang quickly chose the most suitable one.

"Qingbai."

"My subordinate is here."

Qingbai appeared suddenly and bowed to obey the order.

Qin Yaoguang pointed at the painting and said, "Go back to the palace for me and ask my mother for the gold and silver. If she asks what it's for, just tell her I told you to do it. Keep it secret for now."

For this birthday picture, she wanted to save the surprise for last.

Qing Bai's identity is the most suitable for this matter, and with her skills, she is the fastest.

While he is in good shape now, Qin Yaoguang wants to finish the painting as soon as possible.

As soon as Qing Bai heard it, he understood her intention.

As for the matter itself, it is not complicated and any one of her subordinates can do it.

But in terms of status, they are not qualified to meet the Empress Dowager.

"Yes! I obey my orders."

Qin Yaoguang thought for a moment and then said, "Besides, can you ask my mother for me: Is there anything you want to say to me?"

Although she knew the Empress Dowager wouldn't tell her, she still had to ask.

What if?

Qing Bai agreed and said, "I will leave immediately. In addition, I also want to buy more herbs for the medicinal tea in Beijing. Two of them are almost used up."

Qin Yaoguang agreed: "No hurry, come back tomorrow after you finish it."

It takes a whole day by carriage to travel from the villa to the capital.

Qingbai was traveling alone, and even if he rode at full speed, it would still take at least half a day for the one-way journey.

This does not include the time for doing business.

"Yes!"

Qing Bai stood up straight, clenched his right fist, put it to his mouth and blew a loud whistle.

After a moment, a figure flashed and appeared at the door.

She turned over and saluted: "Your subordinate Yue Lu, I pay my respects to the princess."

Qingbai introduced: "Master, after I leave, if you have any business, just call me Yuelu."
