I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 280 - 280 Coincidental Encounter


280 Coincidental Encounter

Madam Yun took the calligraphy piece out. When she saw the wild strokes akin to dragons flying and phoenixes dancing, she felt a sharp aura gushing toward her. Even someone like her who didn’t know anything about calligraphy was stunned. “Is this really written by Madman?”

An aura of extreme wildness and arrogance was indeed radiating from the words.

Shen Ruojing nodded. “Hmm.”

...

Madam Yun admired the calligraphy meticulously and read the content, “Longevity Comparable To Mountains? This blessing isn’t bad and is suitable as a gift for old people. It is a timeless piece. Zhengyang, take a look.”

Madam Yun didn’t know calligraphy and only felt that the writing was indeed beautiful. Hence, she passed it over to Yun Zhengyang.

Yun Zhengyang was someone who had researched calligraphy. Hence, after seeing the work, he immediately sighed in admiration. “Good calligraphy!”

He took the piece and admired it for a long time before he suddenly asked, “Jingjing, how did you get this? Or in other words, how much did you spend to buy it?”

Madam Yun immediately added, “Right, how much did you spend? We cannot allow juniors like you to fork out a single cent. We will return the sum to you.”

Shen Ruojing pondered for a moment after hearing their words. “In that case, give me $20,000.”

Shen Ruojing basically had no idea how much the words she had casually written were worth.

Madam Yun. “?”

She wanted to say something, but Matriarch Chu stopped her. She then said, “Enough, we are all one family. This calligraphy shall be Jingjing’s gift to you!”

As Madam Yun was also a straightforward person, she immediately replied, “Alright.”

Yun Zhengyang stared at the calligraphy piece for a while more before he finally nodded. “Hmm, that’s right, that’s right.”

He cautiously kept the calligraphy piece and directly looked at Shen Ruojing. “You’ve really helped our Yun Family greatly.”

Shen Ruojing wasn’t used to accepting such praises. Hence, she merely nodded and blushed. “I’m going to eat breakfast.”

She went to the dining hall as Yun Zhengyang and Madam Yun took the calligraphy up.

After the two of them entered their rooms, Madam Yun exclaimed in surprise, “I didn’t expect Jingjing to have the cursive calligraphy writing from Madman. This time, Little Wei would be able to face her in-laws proudly.”

She turned her head, yet she saw Yun Zhengyang casually placing the box on the desk and sighing heavily.

Madam Yun. “What’s wrong? Isn’t the writing good?”

Yun Zhengyang replied, “The calligraphy is very good, but they weren’t written by Madman.”

For many calligraphers and artists…their fame would only explode after their death.

Many of those who were still alive actually wrote quite well, but their talent wouldn’t get any recognition. In other words, their fame wasn’t great enough.

Madman’s writing was naturally very good, so good to the extent that he had established his own style with her own characteristics. But as to why he was so popular now, it was because everyone thought that he had passed away.

Madam Yun started. “What do you mean?”

Yun Zhengyang continued, “I investigated this clearly yesterday. Madman only has nine calligraphy works in the market, and none of the nine has this quote ‘Longevity Comparable To Mountains’.”

Madam Yun. “…”

Yun Zhengyang looked at the calligraphy piece on the table and sighed. “After Madman’s works got popular, many people were imitating him. Jingjing’s calligraphy is written very well and exudes the feel of Madman. If it wasn’t for the fact that Madman has passed away and this quote isn’t among his nine words, even I would have no way to distinguish whether it’s real or fake.”

He sat on the sofa and frowned. “No wonder Jingjing would say such words when Fourth Madam Bai came here. She must have been swindled and thought that she truly owned one of Madman’s works. Sigh!”

Hearing this, Madam Yun was dumbfounded and her eyes turned red. “What should we do? We already said we would be gifting one of Madman’s pieces…”

Yun Zhengyang lowered his eyelids. “Don’t act so disappointed. Jingjing will be sad if she sees this. She did so only with good intentions, but it didn’t turn out well.”

Madam Yun gave Yun Zhengyang a light punch. “Considering the circumstances, you are only worried about Jingjing’s feelings.”

Yun Zhengyang sighed after hearing that and spoke in a heavy tone, “Don’t be anxious, I’ll think of a solution. I’ll definitely think of one. How can the work of the living not be comparable to the dead? If I can’t find any of Madman’s work, I’ll find an even better calligraphy work from someone else to give to Old Master Bai!”

Madam Yun wiped her tears away. She knew her husband was very reliable. Since he had said that he would settle everything, there would be no problems. “Hmm, I was only anxious because I was disappointed. Don’t worry, even after Qianhui and Jingjing came here, they still lack a sense of belonging. I know what to do. Jingjing has helped us a lot. I won’t blame her and make her feel disheartened.”

Yun Zhengyang appreciated this aspect of his wife the most. She could read situations very well.

He held her hand. “Hmm, are you not accompanying Little Wei to buy clothes today? Go on, also buy a few pieces for yourself.”

Madam Yun nodded. “I’ll get Jingjing to come along and buy a few dresses for her too.”

After Madam Yun left, Yun Zhengyang looked at the calligraphy on the table again.

The imitation was done so well that even he couldn’t tell whether it was real or fake.

He suddenly took his phone and called the vice president of the capital calligraphy association. The other party soon picked up and said, “Bro Yun, I know you want to purchase one of Madman’s calligraphy works, but I really don’t have any in my collection. They are all in the hands of those few old men…”

Yun Zhengyang suddenly spoke, “Bro, this time around, I don’t want to purchase anything. However, I have a calligraphy piece here and want you to help me see if it is genuine or fake.”

The vice president of the calligraphy association was an experienced calligraphy identification master.

After listening to Yun Zhengyang, the other party immediately answered, “No problem.”

“I’ll head over immediately to look for you.”

After both parties agreed on the meeting, Yun Zhengyang finally went downstairs.

After breakfast, Madam Yun immediately called for the girls to go shopping.

However, Matriarch Chu stayed behind because there were things at home that needed to be settled, and Chu Xiaomeng didn’t tag along because of her social phobia.

Chu Tianye had no interest in shopping and felt that this activity was something only wastrels would do! Wouldn’t it be nice to use the time to earn money instead? Hence, he also refused to accompany them.

As for Chu Yu, he wanted to follow his mommy but was made to stay behind by Madam Yun as she felt it would be inconvenient for a boy to tag along when the females were shopping.

Ultimately, Yun Wei, Madam Yun, and Shen Ruojing left for shopping while Yun Zhengyang took the calligraphy piece to his friend so that the latter could take a look at it.

There were plenty of luxurious clothing stores in the capital, so they went to a huge shopping mall named Newsky Shopping Center.

The first floor was filled with branded luxury bags, and the second floor had clothes and shoes. Also, the third floor was even more high-end. The stores there sold customized clothes, and the price of customization was even more expensive compared to the luxury clothing on the second floor.

The three of them didn’t stop on the first floor, and they chose to go to the second floor directly.

There were only two more days before the banquet in the Bai Family. They definitely had no time for customized clothes, so they decided to purchase ready-made ones instead.

When Madam Yun and Yun Wei were choosing their clothes, Shen Ruojing felt a little bored. She turned her gaze into the distance, and she suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure.

Not far away, two men were currently striding forward, one had a tall and straight figure with a solemn expression, while the second one was dressed in a floral shirt. It was precisely none other than Chu Cichen and Lu Cheng!!
