Lou Jian's poems also have their own characteristics. His regular poems imitate Yuan Zhen and Bai Juyi, including Tang Zhiyun. He made great achievements in ancient Chinese prose, which was handed down from generation to generation from Wu Cao. Wubian is the name of folk songs and Sanqu in Wudi area. Taking Wubian as the title of poetry collection shows Lou Jian's concern and love for local folk songs. On the other hand, it also shows his modesty, which means that his poems are as ordinary as Wu's folk songs. Lou Jian is good at calligraphy. In his early years, he studied Zhong You and Wang Xizhi's ci, but in his later years, he changed to Su Shi, washing away his gentle and charming habits. At that time, Dong Qichang's calligraphy was very popular in the society, but Lou Jian didn't agree. He thinks Dong Shi's calligraphy is more beautiful than vigorous. In his later years, Lou Jian's calligraphy achievements were even higher. His calligraphy works can be called "the wonder of the world". During the reign of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty, famous scholars from Suzhou visited friends in Jiading. Under a broken roof, he saw an abandoned plaque with the words "Xiuyeyuan" inscribed by Lou Jian. The more he looks at it, the more he loves it. His feet seem to be sucked and he can't bear to leave. Finally, I discussed with my host, bought it, took it back to Suzhou, hung it in my garden, and stayed with me day and night. It was a story for a while.
Today, Lou Jian's calligraphy works can still be seen in Jiading. Jiading Museum has a collection of Lou Jian's calligraphy scrolls. His stone carving book "Interesting Bridge" is located in Qiuxiapu Park, and his handwriting is also engraved on the Fahua Pagoda in Jiading.
