Chapter 405: Send gifts to your heart!
“Ah sneeze!” Li Laoer was sitting in the carriage and was carefully protecting the orchid pot when he suddenly sneezed so loudly that he was so startled that he quickly moved away from the pot.
Yesterday at Liu's house, the orchid autumn list received a lot of praise, and the family also said that this second pot would be given to Mr. Tang.
He will go to Luo'an quickly today to avoid offending others if he is late.
Perhaps someone has already spread the news to the academy, and many people are waiting to watch.
His guess was indeed correct. As soon as he arrived at Luo An's shop, Mr. Peng's book boy was already waiting for him.
“Uncle, you are here! Our husband said that someone sent a message last night, saying that he would come to Mr. Tang to enjoy the flowers today.
"Mr. Tang sent someone to ask our husband again, but our husband couldn't help it, so he told the villain to come here early and wait. If you don't come, the villain will have to take the car to Broken Gold Beach!"
Hearing this, Li Lao Er hurriedly said to Li Lao San, and then carried the flowerpot into the academy.
Mr. Peng met him directly on the road and then went to see Mr. Tang.
Mr. Peng said, "Uncle, our family is so awesome. I originally wanted to remind you that sending Mr. Tang gold and silver is not as good as sending flowers. I never thought that my family would prepare such a surprise. Mr. Tang will definitely like it." !”
"As long as Mr. Tang likes it, we really don't know what to give to our family, so we can only give it what it wants. Speaking of which, I would also like to praise our lucky girl. She heard from Jiaren that Mr. Tang likes orchids, so she gave him a gift on the way back. I was planning to buy some, but I ended up buying two nice ones.”
Li Laoer and Mr. Peng were walking and talking, and he didn't forget to bring out his little niece to show off every day.
Mr. Peng heard that it was funny that the Li family cared more about their children than others.
Not to mention anything else, I actually bought a new yard for my grandchildren who are studying in the academy.
But think about it from another perspective, this is a good thing.
After all, if a daughter gets married and gives birth to a child, she will definitely be favored.
The two of them soon arrived at the small courtyard where Mr. Tang lived, and were immediately welcomed in.
Mr. Tang is not only the most famous left-handed person in Tianwu, he is also very knowledgeable and admired by everyone.
This time, at the invitation of Dean Luoan, I came to stay in the hospital for three years, so I received preferential treatment in food, clothing, housing and transportation.
The small courtyard where I live now is a bit remote, but quiet and elegant, which is very suitable for writing poems and paintings.
At this moment, there were four or five gentlemen chatting around Mr. Tang in the study room.
Even the dean!
I heard that someone from the Li family came to bring flowers, and everyone stood up with a smile.
Some people shouted, "Oh, the wait is finally here!"
“Yes, I even postponed the teaching until the afternoon, but the wait was really not in vain!” Another gentleman also looked excited.
Instead, the dean pretended to blame him, "You are blatantly lazy, but you really don't take me as the dean seriously!"
“Oh, they are all flower lovers, no matter their status at this time!” The two gentlemen hid their faces, pretending that the dean could not see them, which made everyone laugh.
Li Laoer entered the house and put down the flower pot. He was also surprised when he saw everyone's situation and quickly saluted.
Everyone hurriedly returned the greeting, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then surrounded the flowerpot, praising her with all their lips.
“It’s really an autumn list! Top grade, definitely top grade!”
“Yes, look at these leaves, they are as green as jade, they are so well maintained!”
“No, no, what’s rare is that these flower stems and buds, even if they wither this year, will still be in full pot next year.”
"Mr. Tang can't be stingy. We will come to watch it often in the future. No, I will paint a few more paintings. Such elegant beauty must be preserved forever." "Me too, let's paint together when the time comes."
Mr. Tang is an old man with a white beard. He is tall and has a straight back. He does not look senile at all.
There are two pieces of his calligraphy hanging on the wall. The pen power penetrates the back of the paper, and the writing style is bold and majestic. Li Laoer nodded unconsciously.
Jiaren is lucky to have such a gentleman to teach left-hand handwriting. Even if he cannot reach the level of his master, at least his grades will not be affected by poor handwriting during the exam.
Everyone admired the orchids for a long time, and finally realized that they were neglecting Li Laoer, so they quickly dispersed and invited Li Laoer to sit down and drink tea.
Mr. Tang's voice was very loud and generous, and he thanked him, "Don't worry, Uncle Li, I like this orchid very much. I will definitely guide Jiaren's left-hand character from now on."
Li Laoer quickly raised his hands and said, "Thank you sir, I will leave Jiaren's child to you. When I have good flowers at home, I will definitely send them to my husband for tasting."
"Sir, you also know that our family is a farmer, and we prefer growing food to growing flowers and grass. Even if we get the world's most famous flowers, we don't know what the benefits are. But it's different when we send it to you, like a sword. Matching a hero can also be considered as finding a good home for a good flower.”
Mr. Tang laughed when he heard it, “We like flowers just for our own entertainment, but your family likes to grow food, which is a good thing for the country and the people.
“I heard that the planting of corn and potatoes will be promoted next year, and the people of Tianwu will no longer suffer from famine. This is Tianwu’s luck.
“Even if Mr. Peng doesn’t introduce me and you don’t send flowers to your family, I’m still willing to teach Jiaren how to practice calligraphy. It’s my right to repay the Li family a little bit on behalf of the people of Tianwu.”
Whether these words were true or false, Li Laoer couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and he held his hands in his hands and thanked him repeatedly.
The dean and the gentlemen also gave a few compliments, and the atmosphere in the room was extremely harmonious for a while.
Seeing that it was noon, Mr. Tang liked the quietness and the others did not want to stay too long, so they made an appointment to come over to paint tomorrow afternoon, and then they all left.
Mr. Peng invited Li Laoer to have lunch at home, and Li Laoer did not refuse.
The Peng family has no matron yet, only a housekeeper to take care of trivial matters, but the lunch for the in-laws is still very sumptuous.
Li Laoer is an uncle, he has also read books, and has experienced the hardships of life. Compared with ordinary scholars, he is much more sophisticated in human nature.
At this moment, while eating and chatting with Mr. Peng, we unexpectedly hit it off and became a little closer than before.
Mr. Peng said, "Jiaren is a child who is very talented and works hard enough. He will be ready next spring. Let's take the exam as a boy first. If he is in a good mood, it is best to take the exam as a scholar."
“Brother Li, you can also try to have children at that time. With luck, maybe you can have two children at home at a time.”
“Seriously? This is great!” Li Laoer beamed when he heard this. He quickly poured Mr. Peng wine and thanked him repeatedly.
Parents are all like this.
Even if I get the top score in the exam, I don’t think it’s that great, but if my child just learns a word and writes it in his hand, he will be so happy and proud that he can’t open his mouth from ear to ear for a long time.
The most precious thing in the world is the love of parents!
After having eaten and drank enough, Li Laoer wanted to see the shop and talk to his brothers, so he left early.
Mr. Peng had no classes today, so he just had to eat after dinner and sent Li Laoer off for a while.
By chance, they met Jiaren and brought Jiaan, Jiaxi, Brother Li and Brother Mao!
Jiaren and Brother Li are just fine, they are used to studying here.
But Jia'an, Jiaxi and Cat Brother have just passed their freshness period. They have been homesick for the past few days, and suddenly they broke out when they saw their relatives.
Brother Cat simply clung to his second uncle and refused to get off, "Woo, second uncle, I want to go home! I miss my grandma, I miss my sister! I also want to eat the food cooked by my fourth aunt!"
Although Jia'an and Jiaxi did not cry, their eyes were red and they held their second uncle's arms on the left and right without moving.
