"Ma Xianglan won't get his name by politics or men. He is absolutely unique among the eight beauties of Qinhuai. But for Wang Zhideng, who was once famous in Wuzhong, how many generations would know about him if he didn't get his name by Ma Xianglan? But without Wang Zhideng, Ma Xianglan would still be the most beautiful eight beauties of Qinhuai. That's what makes her most "amazing."
"If you don't believe it, the other seven beauties who lived in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties can be regarded as the most outstanding representatives of women in ancient brothels. Besides their own qualities, the factors of the times can't be ignored, because their age gives them a stage to show their personality charm. Their contacts are often in the current of the times, and they are too eye-catching and indirect It makes them easier to remember. "
"If they had not been born in that era, if they had not had those people who attracted worldwide attention, their fame would not have been as loud as they are now. In other words, even if they did not exist, future generations would still know Wu Sangui, Chen Ziqian and others. From this point of view, Ma Xianglan is definitely the most distinctive one among the eight beauties of Qinhuai."
At this point, maybe I feel thirsty. Zhu Kejin takes the cup to his mouth and moistens his dry throat. After a pause, he goes on.
"It's true that Ma Xianglan is a wonderful woman. Even without Wang Zhideng, she is still a wonderful woman on the Bank of Qinhuai River, and her love story with Wang Zhideng is even more talked about by people, and it's also popular up to now.
"We all know that although Ma Xianglan often stays in the bustling city, seeing off the old and ushering in the new under the red light, it seems to be hot and noisy, but in fact it is a lonely taste. She has always been eager to have a bosom friend."
"At the age of 24, Ma Xianglan met Wang Zhideng, who was still a scholar. When he was young, Wang Zhideng could recite poems. Right, he was brilliant and had great ambition in his heart, but he was not satisfied. After he arrived in the capital, his official career was bumpy. All the success and fame he wanted were too far away from him, so he had to return to Jiangnan with endless frustration."
"One day, he inadvertently walked into Ma Xianglan's residence and got along with Ma Xianglan very well. He immediately felt that Ma Xianglan was his confidant. At the same time, Ma Xianglan also felt that Wang Zhideng was different from the ordinary dignitaries. She felt that Wang Zhideng was the life and death confidant she had been waiting for. Wang Zhideng had asked Ma Xianglan for painting, and Ma Xianglan's painting had deep meaning Only Wang Zhideng can understand it, which makes their feelings deeper. "
"Later, Wang Zhideng left Qinhuai River and went to the capital again to seek an official position. Ma Xianglan not only supported him all the time, but also firmly believed that he could make great achievements in the capital. However, Wang Zhideng suffered a lot of crowding out, and finally left in a gloomy mood."
"After coming back, Wang Zhideng felt very sorry. He couldn't bear to see Ma Xianglan again and moved his family to Suzhou silently. But Ma Xianglan began to wait for Wang Zhideng. Many of her good sisters urged her to choose another lover so as not to delay her good youth. However, Ma Xianglan just laughed off and didn't want to marry Wang Zhideng."
"Thirty years passed by in a flash, and life was so ordinary and light. Until the late age of beauty, after congratulating Wang Zhideng on his 70th birthday, Ma Xianglan died unfortunately. Between Wang Zhideng and Ma Xianglan, it can be said that they loved each other for a long time, but there was no result."
"One of them is a scholar with no way to achieve fame, and the other is a red pink lady on the Bank of Qinhuai River. Both of them can be said to have fallen into the secular world, because their unintentional meeting makes them feel sorry for each other, but the meeting is too late and the fate is changeable, which makes the promise never come true, leaving only the love story of gifted scholars and beauties."
In the end, Zhu Kejin made a conclusion: "Qin Huai Ba Yan was not famous for her own superiority, but because she got to know some very famous men at that time, such as Liu Rushi and Qian Qianyi, Li Xiangjun and Hou Fangyu, Dong Xiaowan and Mao Bijiang. They were famous all over the world because they were so talented The story of meeting a confidant and leaving a thin name in brothel. "
After a pause, Zhu Kejin continued: "because the love between Ma Xianglan and Wang Zhideng has been well-known, the painting of orchid and bamboo that they cooperated with has a wide influence and greatly enhanced the collection value of this painting, even far more than that of famous artists. Elder brother, you have found a big leak this time, but because of the age and poor preservation, this painting is very popular Some parts of the painting are broken and need to be repaired. "
After listening to Zhu Kejin's explanation, Lin Xi not only praised Ma Xianglan, a strange woman, but also was moved by her unremitting sincerity for her love all her life. He finally understood the value of this painting and why it was more valuable than many famous works. That's the emotional reason.
Moreover, Chen he also said that appreciation of calligraphy and painting requires not only the ability to appreciate calligraphy and painting, but also the combination of the author's life, experience and the background of the times. Only in this way can we have a fundamental appreciation of a good calligraphy and painting. At the same time, we also need to have a certain understanding of history and culture, so that we can further understand it. If we want to tap the knowledge in it, we need the sharp eyes of treasure appraisers .
As I said earlier, antiques are mainly valued in two aspects: one is the high value of antiques themselves, the other is the high value caused by human beings: the so-called high value of antiques lies in the subtlety and craftsmanship of the essence of antiques, and it has experienced hundreds of years and thousands of years of historical precipitation, which can not be imitated by our future generations. Through the identification of antiques, we can understand the culture and history of that era, There are more deep-seated contents, even the embodiment of the quintessence of Chinese culture, so its value is taken for granted.As for human factors, they are complicated and multifaceted. Take the painting of orchid and bamboo for example, its value is not worth 3 million yuan at all. However, because of the love story between Ma Xianglan and Wang Zhideng, it is also the only true work of their cooperative creation and the only achievement of witnessing their love, which makes its value far higher than its own value.
Of course, there must be more than one human factor that causes the high value of antiques. There are also many other factors, but they all depend on things and time.
At that time, President Chen learned from Zhu Kejin that the painting of orchid and bamboo was authentic, and he still picked up a big leak. He was very happy, and he was even more grateful to Zhu Kejin. However, after thanking Zhu Kejin, he asked: "brother, if you want to say that this repair work was done in Liulichang, it was a first-class craft, which will not be forgotten when it came to you Right? How about, or I'll give you this painting. How tired are you? "
Although Zhu Kejin's mood is not very happy, he and President Chen have been friends for many years. Now President Chen asks for help from him, and he has no reason to refuse. He only agrees listlessly: "old brother, you've already asked. I can still refuse. Just put this painting here. When you want to go back to Beijing, just come back and take it back I'll make it up for you
Mr. Chen's smile became more and more intense with Zhu Kejin's promise. But he hasn't been so happy for a long time. It's not that he's happy because the painting is worth three million yuan. After all, at his age, money is already outside his body.
What President Chen is happy about is the old painting he picked up from the descendants of the eight banners. He is just happy to pick up the leak, just like a naughty boy with a cake in his hand. He sees a lollipop on the road. Children don't stop picking up lollipops because they have an egg cake.
In fact, a child will not only happily pick up the lollipop, but also be happier than the cake he owns. Because the cake belongs to him, it's hard for him to realize the strong joy of owning the cake. However, the lollipop he picks up is unexpected. Who is not happy with the good luck that comes from the sky?
Or take another example, a man's wife is a gorgeous beauty, but he can't help looking for other women outside. The reason why a man looks for other women is not that other women are more beautiful than his wife, but just because it's exciting to have an affair. Just like the saying that doesn't go up on the stage, "the flags are flying outside, but the red flags are not falling at home." this is what every man has After all, no one cares if they have more than one wife.
