Chapter 32 The Fifth Family of the Early Tang Dynasty
Chapter 32 The fifth family in the early Tang Dynasty
After going to the kitchen to check it out, there were only one jar of the four jars of jam that I had made at the beginning, and the rest were dissipated and decayed.
Wei Chi and Xie Jiu stood in the kitchen, looking at each other, Wei Chi concluded: "It is obviously not enough to only know theoretical knowledge. Watching foreign grandmas on TV and doing it yourself will have a different result. I'll think about it again."
Xie Jiu simply walked over, patted Wei Chi on the shoulder, smiled kindly and beautifully, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, please think slowly."
Then, he stayed up and left in a very casual manner, leaving Wei Chi alone standing alone and thinking hard that the beautiful sister is not kind.
After carefully recalling the jam making process I watched on TV, Wei Chi realized the mistake. He made a mistake. The time for marinating jam is actually the storage time. It does not mean that you have to marinate it before you can eat it, but that it can be eaten after it is made. If the storage environment is good, about a jar of jam can be stored for about six months. Of course, this is under the premise of having a refrigerator.
After carefully recalling the details and comparing the practice, Wei Chi was confident that he would definitely succeed in making jam next time, but it is unlikely at the moment because there is no fresh fruit now.
I took the only jar of jam left to the cellar, stored it with cabbage and other things, and first made a jam cake for the beautiful sister, and asked the beautiful sister to taste it. The sour and sweet strawberry jam was highly praised by the beautiful sister. It seemed enthusiastic and sincere, but I didn’t know whether it was true or not, and gave a high evaluation and issued an order: "After the fresh fruit comes out next year, you can make several more flavors."
Wei Chi patted his chest and agreed: "I understand, thank you sister for your hard work."
Xie Jiu smiled and replied in a gentle tone: "Serve the people."
"...Sister is so humorous." Wei Chi had the urge to vomit blood again. Xie Jiu was still alive, and his face remained unchanged and smiled: "There is no way, there is such a person around him. If he doesn't follow the trend, he will be very lonely."
Wei Chi had the urge to hit the wall again, but, can the walls of this wooden structure house be killed? Don’t hit someone half-dead and become a vegetative person, and leave his family Xie Jiu alone, but you have to take care of him. That’s so unkind.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Wei Chi said: "It seems that my wife is quite leisurely recently. May I ask, have the matters of the pharmaceutical factory done?"
After Xie Jiu took over, the guy followed the lazy policy of "not doing his own business" and left it to Xie Jiu to take care of it. Only when he had nothing to do would he remember to ask.
Xie Jiu said: "I selected five smart children to learn and manage the business. At present, the entry is good and I have experienced it slowly. In the future, the lack of staff at home should be improved."
Xie Jiu said something lightly, but Wei Chi admired it very much. The leader is the leader, and he is quick to get started. The two of them discussed the matter of the pharmaceutical factory.
After the discussion, the Wei Mansion's industry was divided into detail. The tea shop occupied not much shares. According to the regulations when signing the agreement, every quarter, the account room gave Wei Chi a detailed financial record to Wei Chi. This work has been handed over to Xie Jiu. The couple discussed that in the future, business and management matters will be handed over to Xie Jiu, and Wei Chi will be handled exclusively.
Xie Jiu believes that Wei Chi is good at interpersonal communication, and it is more convenient for him to be a man outside. Xie Jiu believes that his personality is too cold, introverted, and sometimes too serious. It is appropriate to manage the internal industry of the family. She also has certain management experience, which is more suitable for this.
The couple showed their strengths, divided the labor reasonably, collaborated scientifically, and managed their family happily together. The current model is more suitable, so as not to be bored by Xie Jiu and Wei Chi are too busy to be busy.
Once this pattern was confirmed, Xie Jiu was at ease, and Wei Chi felt relieved. It was no longer the same state that was always busy and always felt that there were countless things waiting for him to complete. Wei Chi really wanted to worship Xie Jiu to save the suffering and the Bodhisattva.
Wei Wen said outside: "Young Master, someone from Yongxing County Mansion came up and said that they promised to send two words to the young master and were ordered to send them over."
"Yongxing County? Who is it?"
Wei Chi obviously hadn't reacted yet. Wei Wen paused and said, "Young Master, Yongxing County is the eldest son of Yu Shinan Yu."
"Oh, please come quickly, good tea, I'll come over immediately."
Wei Chi quickly changed his clothes and walked into the living room. The hall was sitting in a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes and brocade robe. Wei Chi had seen him. Among His Majesty Li Er's ministers, he did not know his name. When the man saw Wei Chi, he smiled slightly, bowed and said, "Wei Shaoqing, be polite."
"Sir, I'm not asking for advice..."
The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "I am Chu Suiliang, whose courtesy name is Dengshan. I have long admired the name of Shaoqing Wei for a long time. Although I have seen him, I have never talked. Today, I am ordered by the gentleman to send the name to the master. I am asking for a letter to him."
Chu Suiliang! The legendary great calligrapher! Wei Chi's first reaction was happiness, the second reaction was excitement, and then the third reaction was to ask Wei Wen to quickly serve him.
Wei Chi smiled and said, "I have been the talented person who has long admired the great master. I wonder if I am lucky enough to ask the great master to give him a gift of ink treasure?"
Chu Suiliang was stunned at first, then smiled and said, "It's true that Wei Shaoqing likes to ask others for calligraphy, but if the word "Dengshan" can still be seen as Wei Shaoqing's eyes."
Wei Chi laughed and said, "You can enter, you can enter. Master Chu's word is also praised by Your Majesty, so don't be humble. Wei Wen, serves the pen, ink, paper and ink."
Chu Suiliang smiled slightly, and had long had the knowledge of Wei Chi's style, but he was not surprised. After Wei Wen brought the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Wei Chi personally grinds the ink, waiting for Chu Suiliang to start writing. By the way, the characters were not well written, but Wei Chi had mastered the skill of grinding ink.
Chu Suiliang pondered for a while and said with a smile: "Wei Shaoqing is unruly by nature, free and easy, laughing, anger and scolding, and doing whatever he wants. Let me write a cursive script to give it to Wei Shaoqing."
After saying that, Shushua wrote a cursive script, Wei Chi stared at the beginning and saw the end. Unfortunately, Shi was an amateur among laymen. After staring at him for a long time, he could no longer say anything except that his handwriting was beautiful. In order not to attack Chu Suiliang, Shi could only pretend to be "Good handwriting, good handwriting."
After writing, Wei Chi asked someone to frame and collect the two paintings given by Mr. Yu Shinan. He smiled and said, "Look, it's really a sin to let Mr. Chu go for a trip in order to get him to the next place. He is rude."
Chu Suiliang said: "No, I'm giving Wei Shaoqing a name, but I'm just one of them. There's another thing about Confucian scholar Hua Fengchi. I've brought him to the mansion."
After saying that, someone went to bring Hua Fengchi. Wei Chi looked at Hua Fengchi. Although Hua Fengchi was poor before, he looked very energetic. He hadn't seen him for a few days, so why did he look depressed? Could it be that he was abused at Yu Shinan's mansion?
When Hua Fengchi saw Wei Chi, his listless expression immediately turned into shame, saluted to Wei Chi, and whispered: "Hua Fengchi has seen Lord Wei."
Wei Chi looked at him for some reason, thinking of the landlords who were wearing pointed hats and were dragged out to parade the streets, and almost blurted out a sentence "Long live xxx" or "xxx quotes".
In fact, Wei Chi didn't care much about the so-called Hua Fengchi stealing his calligraphy achievements. He was not the Song font invented by this guy, and he was not good at calligraphy. He thought that this was a trivial matter of flapping his butterfly wings, which was not worth mentioning. However, Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang were obviously more upright people. If they wanted to care, he was embarrassed to refuse too much. After all, it was all for him.
After considering the words and sentences, Wei Chi said: "Scholar Hua, can you write a picture of the words you have practiced for me?"
Hua Fengchi was stunned for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Yes."
With the pen, ink, paper and inkstone he just picked up, Hua Fengchi calmed down, with a solemn and serious expression, and began to write. Wei Chi looked at it and it was indeed the font of Song Dynasty running script, which was running script. He finished writing, started, followed the trend, and was deeply understood in the essence of Song Dynasty running script. Wei Chi, a layman, liked it for a while, and looked at Chu Suiliang quietly. Chu Dada also had an admirational expression on his face, but after looking at Hua Fengchi, he became regretful again.
After writing a Song font, Wei Chi asked Hua Fengchi to write his original font, asking him to choose the font he is best at. After writing, Wei Chi made an appreciation statement and asked Chu Suiliang: "Mr. Chu is an expert. Please appreciate this character and give me some advice."
Chu Suiliang took the initiative and gave a very high evaluation after careful evaluation. Wei Chi laughed and said, "I couldn't write well in the lower hand. When I was a child, I was beaten and scolded by my parents and my husband for this. I know the hardships and efforts of writing good handwriting. This scholar Hua came to our house to help once last time, which was also considered fate. He has the talent for calligraphy and can carry forward Song fonts, which is good, and I don't object. You can't kill the development of Song fonts just because I'm not good at it. If you like Song fonts, just practice them, I won't pursue this matter anymore."
After saying that, without waiting for Hua Fengchi to be surprised, Wei Chi saluted Chu Suiliang and said sincerely: "The kindness of Mr. Yu and Mr. Chu, both of whom are rigorous in their academic research, make me deeply grateful and deeply admire you. However, talent is not easy to obtain. Let's expose this matter. Perhaps, it may be a good story for our forgiveness to add another calligraphy to our Tang Dynasty. At that time, it will be a good story, a beautiful thing, and the beauty of adulthood. Why not do it? What does Lord Chu think?"
Chu Suiliang looked at Hua Fengchi who was looking at him, then looked at the words on his desk, then looked at the smiling Wei Chi, and sighed: "Stop, since Wei Shaoqing doesn't pursue it, why should we be outsiders hold on to it! This person is indeed a bit talented in calligraphy. If he can practice diligently, it will not be difficult for him to become a great person in the future. Hua Fengchi, Wei Shaoqing is magnanimous today. I hope you remember it and don't forget the earnest expectations of our waiting."
Wei Chi smiled and said, "That's right, Lord Chu and I are optimistic about you. Work hard. I hope that Song Tyrant can carry forward the development of your hands and become a family! I hope you don't let our expectations down!"
Hua Fengchi obviously didn't expect Wei Chi to be so easy to talk to, and let him go so easily. He was grateful to a big man with tears in his eyes and said, "Thank you two adults, little student... little student must work hard! He will never let down the expectations of the two adults."
Wei Chi smiled and asked Wei Wen to give him ten coins of money to send him out of the mansion. Then he said to Chu Suiliang: "I let Hua Fengchi go without authorization. If Mr. Yu is in charge, I hope that Mr. Chu will tell me about my apology. In the future, I will definitely cooperate with my elder father and elder family to come to Mr. Yu's mansion to apologize and thank Mr. Yu for his care and care."
Wei Chi asked someone to bring cakes and cookies to Chu Suiliang, which made people smile and go home. Then he smiled proudly and almost turned back to the backyard. When he returned to the backyard, Xie Jiu and Loli Zhaodi were both there. There were piles of cloth in front of them. Xie Jiu wrote and painted on the paper. Zhaodi was watching from the side, but he didn't know what the two were saying.
Seeing Wei Chi coming in with a proud look on his face, Xie Jiu looked at him with a smile, first whispered a few instructions to Zhaodi, and then Zhaodi went out. After Zhaodi went out, Xie Jiu asked, "What's wrong? I'm so happy?"
Wei Chi quickly told Xie Jiu what happened just now. After saying that, he was fascinated by yy: "Madam, if Hua Fengchi became the fifth calligrapher of the early Tang Dynasty, it would be great! Think about it, in the future, historical records say that the fifth calligrapher of the early Tang Dynasty were learned by Wei Chi and Wei Ziyue. You said, can we be like Mrs. Wei Shuo, the master of the calligraphy saint Wang Xizhi, although there is no remnant of ink treasures, it also leaves a good reputation. Maybe historians will divide us into mysterious historical figures!"
Xie Jiu was amused and cried, and said, "I don't know if you will be classified as a mysterious historical figure. If you continue to yy, there may be a yy king in history. Maybe, people will list you as a famous thinker."
...Ruch! Swearing without swearing! The beautiful sister is so cruel!
Wei Chi wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth. In view of his good mood, he decided not to argue with the little woman. He was proud of his butterfly's wings. The wind was too strong. If he was not careful, he might blow out the fifth master of calligraphy in the early Tang Dynasty. It was very beautiful and beautiful!
Wei Chi looked at Xie Jiu and smiled maliciously, making Xie Jiu furrow all over her body, angrily: "What are you having fun in silly?"
Wei Chi quickly put away his expression, acted well, and said, "Madam, please follow me."
He took Xie Jiu to the room where he specially collected calligraphy and paintings. The high bookshelf and the walls on both sides were covered with framed calligraphy and paintings. Wei Chi was very proud and beautiful, and said: "Madam, please see! This is from Your Majesty, from Fang Xuanling, from Changsun Wuji, from Kong Yingda, from our adoptive father, from Uncle Li Ji, from Tang Jian..."
Wei Chi counted all the way, which shocked Xie Jiu very much. He almost caught all the famous officials and generals of the early Tang Dynasty in one go, and there was even the little princess of Wei Zi. Xie Jiu looked at Wei Chi with a little different look. The guy was very proud and counted: "When I find another opportunity to come to Empress Changsun, Prince Chengqian's Motto, hehe, don't use it if you don't do it, just look at it, it's also a great satisfaction. Madam, don't have any other thoughts?"
