Chapter 159

Of course, not every genuine product has the characteristic of "crab claw pattern". Cao Zhao of the Ming Dynasty once described it in "gegu Yaolun": "Ru kiln ware, which came from the north, was fired in the Song Dynasty. It's light cyan. It's true if there are crab claw patterns. It's especially good if there are no patterns. The earth veins are beautiful, and it's rare if they are thin. "

This passage is Cao Zhao's accurate description of Ru kiln. It clearly points out that the color of Ru porcelain is light cyan. If there is crab claw pattern, it is true. If there is no crab claw pattern, it is even better.

Most of the existing Ru kiln wares in the world have crab claw patterns, but a few of them are not open, which is the so-called no pattern.

And "Morning Star thin" means that the bubbles in glaze are sparse, just like morning star. "Sesame nail glaze" refers to the bottom shape of Ru porcelain. First, it is fired with a branch nail. The shape of the branch nail is oval like sesame grain. And glaze satisfaction is to apply glaze to the end without leaving a circle.

These five appraisals are the characteristics of the genuine Ru Guan kiln, which can be reflected one by one in this round wash.

The washing of fetal bone is light and thin, and the sound of clasping is like a chime. The glaze is blue in blue, pure and moist. The glaze surface shows a soft and implicit luster. It is not only different from the Milky light of Jun porcelain, but also different from the grease light of Ge kiln. It is a kind of inner luster similar to ancient jade. The glaze is thin, smooth and even close to the fetal bone.

And Chu Chen took a 20 times magnifying glass to observe, we can clearly see that the bubbles in the glaze are large and sparse, just like the pearls inlaid in the clear night sky, which is the proof of the theory that "your glaze bubbles are like morning stars".

In addition, there are some other features of this wash, which are also true, and there is no place for counterfeiting. All these can prove that this round wash of azure glaze should be a genuine product of Ru Guan kiln in Song Dynasty. After being tested by powers, the result is not beyond Chu Chen's expectation.

Chu Chen looked at the round wash in his hand. He was so excited that he couldn't help himself. This is your official kiln! After the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, Ru kiln also disappeared. It was only 20 years before and after the opening of the kiln. Due to the short time of firing, it was not handed down from generation to generation. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Ru Guan kiln porcelain was very rare, and today there are less than 100 authentic pieces.

Zhou Hui of Southern Song Dynasty wrote in Qingbo magazine: "burning is forbidden in Ru kiln palace. There is agate glaze in it. The only way to sell is for the emperor to choose and withdraw. According to tan Zhai Bi Heng written by Ye Zhen in the Southern Song Dynasty, "in this dynasty, Dingzhou white porcelain was used as awn, which was not suitable for use. So he ordered Ruzhou to make Qing kiln ware. Therefore, Hebei, Tang, Deng and Yaozhou learned that it was Youzhi and Ruyao was the leader."

Since the song, yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Ru ware used in the imperial court, which was stored in the inner storehouse, was regarded as a treasure and was more expensive than the Shang, Yi and Zhou tripods. It is known as "even if there is wealth, it is not as good as Ru porcelain.". Li kuchan, a famous master of traditional Chinese painting, once said that "if there is no such thing as you, it is hard to be perfect."

Chu Chen did not expect that his father would leave such a precious thing for him. When he was excited, he could not help but shed tears of remembrance when he thought of his father's love for him.

Liu Guomin's health, because of that special era, has not been very good. However, since he adopted Chu Chen, although life has been a little hard, it is because Chu Chen, who is dependent on each other, has been in good health for a while, but there is no way. After all, the foundation is there.

When Chu Chen was about to be 16 years old, Liu Guomin, who was nearly 56 years old, couldn't hold on any longer. Originally, he wanted to tell Chu Chen about the azure glaze washing. But one day, he accidentally fell, hit his head on a stone, and suddenly fell into a coma.

Originally, he was about to come to the end of his life, and then spread out such things. As a result, after seven days of coma, he never woke up again, and Chu Chen had no way to know about this circular washing.

Touching the Yuan Xi in his hand, Chu Chen sighs a long time. At the same time, he hates the fate of his father's death, and is glad that he didn't know that his father left him such a valuable thing.

If Chu Chen had known that there was such a Ru official kiln, it would have been a good thing if he had not seen it. After all, he was still very young at that time, and his self-control ability was very low. He had the impatient problem of ordinary young people.

When Chu Chen first arrived in the capital, he saw the prosperous metropolis and yearned for a life full of money. He fancied that he would suddenly have a lot of money one day, so that he would not have to work so hard to set up a stall and not have to eat books every day.

If Liu Guomin had told him about Ru Guan kiln, it is very likely that this Ru Guan kiln was already in someone else's collection room. And even if he didn't want to sell it, if others knew that he owned the Ru Guan kiln, Chu Chen, who was just an ordinary man at that time, would have little hope of keeping it.

Shaking his head, Chu Chen no longer thought about it. Next, he kept playing with the azure glaze in his hand.

Slowly, the characteristics of Ru Guan kiln were constantly displayed in front of Chu Chen. The glaze is as smooth and simple as silk. It's bright and lustrous. The glaze is as pure and elegant as a pile of grease. With the refraction of the light in the room, the round washing shows a charming luster, which he can't put down.

At this time, he saw that at one o'clock in the morning, Chu Chen reluctantly put Yuanxi in the box again. This is also because the things are too expensive. He can't be at ease if he puts them in other placesThe next day, Chu Chen got up at five o'clock and looked at the weather. It was a fine day today. After washing, Chu Chen didn't have time to exercise, so he came to the old village head's house and asked him if there was a suitable box for the round wash.

As soon as the old village head saw Chu Chen, he said happily, "Chen Wazi, I've got up so early. I haven't had breakfast yet. If you don't like it, I'll make do with it. When you have finished eating, you can bring another bowl to the girl. By the way, Chen Wazi, is that girl your daughter-in-law? "

Chu Chen waved his hand and said with a smile, "old village head, you're joking. Where can I get my daughter-in-law now? That's my sister, Chu Yulan."

"Ah? Chu? So it's your family? National brother, he's at ease now! " The old village head said in surprise.

Chu Chen nodded with a smile, and then said, "old village head, do you have a smaller box here?"

"Smaller and the box? How big is it? "

Looking at Chu Chen's size, the old village head thought about it and said, "there's only a paper box. Do you want it?"

"It's OK. Just be strong."

The old village head answered, went home and took out a cardboard box. Seeing that Chu Chen was satisfied, he said, "Chen Wazi, I want Yougen to go to the school. He is also an intellectual in our village. It's OK to treat people and things. Do you think it's ok?"

There were so many people in a village. When the old village head said his name, Chu Chen remembered who he was. LV Yougen, 28 years old, is the only carpenter in the village.

although he only graduated from junior high school, many villagers who didn't even graduate from primary school are indeed intellectuals.

Moreover, he is honest and warm-hearted. He is indeed the best candidate in the village.

Chu Chen put his hand and said with a smile, "old village head, you think it's OK. I don't mind."

"That's OK. By the way, don't worry about Mrs. Fuquan's side. I've called people in the village and asked them to help carry them to the school later."

"What's the point? I'll stand by and watch, OK?" Chu Chen said with some hesitation.

The old village head waved his hand and said, "Chen Wazi, I know you are sincere, but if you don't talk about helping the village build roads, you have to bear the medical expenses of Fu Quan's mother-in-law. She is also a villager of our Lvjia village. We should help her. Well, that's settled. Let's have breakfast. "

After listening to the old village head's words, Chu Chen said nothing more about this matter, and then he was sad.

After breakfast, Chu Yulan should also get up, Chu Chen gave her a bowl of breakfast back. Back home, Chu Yulan is already washing. Chu Chen greets her and goes back to the room with a paper box, ready to decorate it, and then puts the round wash in it.

Because things were too expensive, Chu Chen was afraid of bumping when he was walking for a while, so he arranged them very carefully. It took him half an hour to be satisfied.

After breakfast, Chu Yulan saw that the door was not closed, so she came in to ask Chu Chen about today's itinerary. Chu Chen was taking Yuanxi out of the box and carefully putting it into the carton.

Seeing Chu Chen's solemn look, Chu Yulan was afraid that his walking would disturb him, so he stood still at the door.

"Yulan, what are you doing standing there?"

After placing the things, Chu Chen looked up and saw Chu Yulan standing at the door. Seeing her cautious appearance, he felt a little strange.

"Brother, I saw you putting things just now, for fear of disturbing you."

Chuchen ha ha a smile, said: "come on, you don't have to be so careful, my courage is not so small."

Hearing this, Chu Yulan happily went to the box and looked at the round wash in the box curiously, then said with surprise: "brother, isn't this the round wash of azure glaze?"

"Yes, I didn't expect that Xiaolan, you also know ancient ceramics now?" Chuchen said with a smile.

Chu Yulan smell speech some shy said: "I'm just interested in these, just learned not long, now just a little bit."

Chuchen said happily: "ha ha, Xiaolan, are you interested in ancient ceramics? That's good. There are many ancient cultures of our nation in it. You will like it more and more if you study it slowly. "

Seeing Chu Chen so happy, Chu Yulan couldn't help but smile. The reason why she learned about ceramics before was that she saw the enamel bowl in Xijing and thought it was very beautiful, so she felt some interest. After she went home, she bought some books to read.
