At this time, Wu Xiaotian found that Chen Shihan was missing.
However, he understood, after all, today is her grandfather's birthday, and she went to the airport to pick him up in the afternoon, and now she must go over to have a look.
Moreover, what everyone in the hall was talking about at the moment also aroused his interest.
"Sister Su, tell me, is it really okay for us not to bring gifts this time?" one of the middle-aged men asked with a frown.
The middle-aged woman named Sister Su, through the chat just now, Wu Xiaotian knew her origin, her name is Su Hong, she is a student of Chen Shihan's grandfather, and now teaches at a university in the capital, because the direction of research is similar to Chen Lao, and she is an assistant under Chen Lao, so she often comes here to consult Chen Lao, so she is most familiar with his temper.
Su Hong said with a smile: "Didn't they all try it in the past few years, everyone came over with gifts big and small, Chen Lao had a black face, and he was most annoyed by these things." ”
"However, coming empty-handed like this, my heart is not steady. ”
"Well, I think so too. ”
"Well, although Chen Lao said this, but we can't do this, you said that Chen Lao used to be our tutor in school, busy with our studies every day, and now on our birthday, he is also busy preparing food and drink for us. Hey, I'm feeling uncomfortable!"
"Sister Su, in the past few years, you have had the most contact with Chen Lao, let's talk about it, should we prepare something?"
Su Hong frowned and pondered when they said this.
After a long time, she said slowly: "If you really want to prepare a gift, just forget about some money and the like, taking it out will only make Old Chen angry." So this gift must be special and can surprise Boss Chen. ”
As soon as she said this, everyone fell silent.
They all understand what Su Hong said, but it's useless if they can't think of it!
"I watched us put on a show, that is, about what we used to do in school, what do you think? I have thought about the content, Lao Wu, I still remember when the two of us were in graduate school, because some ideas in the middle of a paper were stuck, the rain was very heavy that day, Chen Lao braved the rain to send us a book, helped us solve the problem, the next day Chen Lao was sick because of the rain, or we will perform this paragraph, how about it?"
"That's a good idea, but it's too late, and there's no open space!"
"Then sing a song, a song about the teacher?"
"It's too vulgar, and Chen Lao hasn't listened to songs for many years! By the way, why don't you go up and dance?"
"Do you want me to dance? Do you want everyone to be unable to eat?"
"Hehe, forget it, I'm just talking!"
Then, several more people put forward their own suggestions, but they were either more vulgar or not enough time now, so they were all rejected by others, and no agreement was reached for a while.
All of them were helpless.
It's so difficult to come up with a suitable gift in such a short time, as well as various conditions!
Wu Xiaotian looked at everyone's sad faces, and couldn't speak for a while.
Originally, he was still a little worried, today Chen Lao has a birthday, is it a little inappropriate for him not to bring gifts, but now looking at this, it seems that all the people did not bring gifts.
At this time, Su Hong suddenly slapped the table, startling all the people who were thinking, and hurriedly looked at her.
"What's wrong? Sister Su. Someone asked.
"I thought of it!" Su Hong said with a smile: "If we can make this, I think Chen Lao will be very happy, this may be the best birthday gift we can give Chen Lao." ”
"Really?
"Really? Is it too late?"
"Sister Su, hurry up, time is running out now, it's more than 6 o'clock, the banquet is about to start at 7 o'clock, and it's too late if you don't say anything!"
Su Hong was silent for a while, she was thinking about whether to say it, because she felt that even if she said it, it was estimated that everyone would not be able to complete it for a while, but when she saw the eager eyes of everyone, she finally decided to say it, after all, there are so many people, one more person has more strength, and some people are very accomplished in some aspects, maybe there will really be a miracle.
"Actually, some of you should know that Chen Lao has been thinking about an absolute link over the years. After deciding, Su Hong began to say slowly: "However, this lower link has never been settled, and Chen Lao is often troubled by this!"
"Hearing Sister Su say this, I remembered it, it seems to be a couplet, but only the upper couplet, the lower couplet has been vacant, I remember I have seen it, what is it called?" One of them also suddenly said: "Sister Su is right, if we give this couplet to the right, it will definitely be the best birthday gift for Chen Lao." ”
"What couplet? Chen Lao can't even get it right?"
"Yes, Sister Su, do you know? Although our knowledge is not as good as that of Chen Lao, but so many people, maybe they are really right together? Even if they are not neat, try it, maybe it will inspire Chen Lao a little. ”
Su Hong said with a smile: "Nacheng, there are a lot of people here, and I'm afraid that some of them won't be able to hear what they say." Do you have pen and paper? I'll write it out, and everyone will pass it on later, and everyone will think about whether they have any good ideas!"
"Yes, here comes the pen and paper!"
At this time, someone immediately brought pen and paper.
Su Hong took it and wrote it on the paper.
Wu Xiaotian has also been watching, he heard Sister Su talking about couplets, and suddenly remembered that when he was in his hometown, Chen Shihan called him, saying that he was asking him for one thing, that is, to let him talk about couplets, and now these old Chen students are also talking about couplets, will these two be the same?
At that time, he asked Chen Shihan what the upper link of this couplet was, Chen Shihan said that he didn't know very well, and now Sister Su just knew, so he took a look by the way, maybe it was really the same couplet, which gave him time to think.
Moreover, Chen Shihan went to pick him up at the airport on his grandfather's birthday today, which made him even more unhappy.
Soon, Su Hong finished writing, and everyone saw it, but everyone was silent.
This couplet, at first glance, is not difficult, but the more they think about it, the more they feel that it is not ordinary.
"That, I seem to be right!"
Just when everyone was about to give up, Wu Xiaotian said in surprise. (To be continued.) )
