Chapter 278

Just then, two more elderly men walked in from outside. One of them laughed, "Who had a sudden enlightenment?"

Qu Ziqing laughed, "Old Ye, you're late today. Come quickly and look at this piece of calligraphy. It was written by Professor Qin's student. We were just talking about him."

Professor Qin introduced the two newcomers to Su Xinghui. One was the painter Yi Mingda, and the other was the calligrapher Ye Jinian. Su Xinghui was very familiar with these names from his previous life.

The two looked at the calligraphy, and after one glance, Ye Jinian tapped the table with his knuckles: "Good, this calligraphy is well written! You're saying this was written by this young man?"

Qu Ziqing said, "Of course, he wrote it."

Ye Jinian said, "No wonder you were talking about sudden enlightenment; this calligraphy truly has an unusual flavor."

Professor Qin laughed and took out the "Song of the Youth" and spread it on the table, "There's another piece here that he wrote. Take a look and see if there's any difference."

After seeing this piece, Qu Ziqing praised it again, "Good, good, good! 'Ten thousand coins for a dou of fine wine from Xinfeng; how many years have the knights-errant of Xianyang roamed?' Meeting with high spirits, I drink for you; tying my horse to the high building by the weeping willows. There's heroic spirit here! The heroic spirit of a young man. I said it—a young man shouldn't be so old-fashioned. This piece is what a young man should write!"
