Chapter 64 Self-improvement and virtue
Saying goodbye to Guan Xiaofeng and Shangguan Wen, the two eldest brothers, I hurried back with Lao Jiu, this meal was eaten by a few of us from noon to evening, and there was no way for a few of us to chat at first sight, and before we knew it, it was already on the moon. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Sitting in the car, I carefully took out the ancestor's token and looked at it, and said in my heart that if the master knew that I had taken back this ancestor's relic, how happy I would be!
In addition to this token, Brother Shangguan Wen also gave me two gifts, I heard Brother Shangguan say that one is the Yuan Dynasty Hutian kiln Pisces blue and white pen wash, and the other is the Song Dynasty dragon and phoenix Chengxiang bronze paperweight, I don't know too much about antiques, although these two things are taken out of the ancient tomb, but the shape of the Tubalaki does not look like a priceless city, but no matter what, the years are there! You should be able to give them to Uncle Gu!
I was thinking about the phone ringing and pressed the connect button. Qishan's penetrating voice came: "Brother is really not aware of calling you at this time, I am too busy during the day, there is no way for our criminal police to be like this, brother, I will not delay your rest, just one thing, I don't have a car, and I have to trouble you to pick me up tomorrow morning!" β
A few polite words with Wang Qishan, I hung up the phone and looked at Lao Jiu, who was driving, and a sense of superiority arose, he Wang Qishan, a large detachment leader, did not have a car, I am still just a student, let alone a car, even the driver hahaha!
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Lao Jiu and I rushed to the agreed place to pick up Wang. Qishan, seeing that Lao Wang was carrying a box of snacks and two bottles of wine in his hand, he had been waiting for a long time, and after meeting a few polite words, we rushed to the villa area of the provincial party committee, although the villa area was actually some old-fashioned classic buildings, in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, all the Soviet experts lived here, and later the Sino-Soviet relations were bad, and the Soviet bricks were withdrawn, and it became the family home of the provincial party committee.
Today may be the weekend, there are not many cars on the road, and it only took half an hour for us to arrive at the gate of the Provincial Party Committee's family home. (Now that I think about it, I really miss the time when there weren't many private cars!) οΌ
Because this family home is inhabited by retired and current provincial and ministerial leaders, so the security is still very strict, seeing a car over three armed police soldiers to lead us is a young captain, surprising is that this officer actually knows me, probably because the first few times I came was Gu Mingshan personally came to the door to pick me up, this may be Gu Zhufeng's quasi-son-in-law!
The captain said hello to me like an old friend and let our car go, and when he saw that Wang Qishan was full of question marks, he thought to himself what was the origin of this young man!
After saying goodbye to the captain and officer, we came to the No. 1 building where Gu Zhufeng lived, Gu Mingshan had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw our car driving over, he waved his hands to us enthusiastically.
Maybe it's because I experienced life and death with Gu Mingshan in the last kidnapping incident, so I also felt very cordial when I met Gu Mingshan!
I got out of the car and came to Gu Mingshan's side before I could say hello to her, Gu Mingshan hugged me and kissed me on the face, I heard Gu Mingshan say that he studied in Paris, France, Paris is a romantic capital, where kisses are popular among relatives and friends, and everyone often gnaws on their faces and hands when they meet, but this is all back to China, how can Gu Mingshan still use such a warm etiquette! I was a little overwhelmed for a while.
Lao Jiu Peng Tao was a clever person, seeing that the atmosphere had become awkward, he hurriedly came over to play a round, and smiled at Gu Mingshan: "Sister! My eldest brother and I came to see you, uncle and aunt are fine, what delicious food has been prepared for us today! β
Gu Mingshan saw that her actions were a little too intimate, her face turned slightly red, and she smiled at Lao Jiu and said, "Xiao Jiu is coming to eat again!" Let's go into the house for a while. β
After Gu Mingshan finished speaking, he glanced at Wang Qishan, who was following behind, smiled at him and nodded, this Gu Mingshan is Gu Zhufeng's pearl in the palm of her hand, she can definitely be regarded as a young lady, she has been spoiled by Gu Zhufeng and his wife since she was a child, she is very willful, and she can be the same as Wang. Qishan nodded, that really looked at me, so big.
Wang Qishan didn't mind, and followed us into the Gu Mansion with a box of dim sum and two bottles of old wine with a spring breeze on his face.
We followed Gu Mingshan into the living room, and Aunt Gu greeted me and smiled at me: "Why hasn't Chang Peng come to the house to play recently!" Your Uncle Gu often talks to you, go upstairs, your Uncle Gu is practicing calligraphy in the study! β
I chatted with Aunt Gu a few more words and went upstairs to see Uncle Gu, Lao Jiu is a sensible person who did not go up with me, stayed in the living room and started a family routine with Aunt Gu, Wang Qishan did not have Lao Jiu's consciousness and followed me closely.
Gu Zhufeng was writing in the study, and when he saw me come in, he smiled at me and motioned for me to sit first, his eyes stayed on Wang Qishan for a few seconds, and then he lowered his head and worked hard to write.
I gently came to the desk and saw Uncle Gu writing four big characters of virtue, and it seemed that successful people respected this sentence.
"The gentleman carries things with virtue, I have heard it, only those who are virtuous can be blessed, and those who are not blessed and obey will hurt themselves. Chang Peng, you remember how big a person is, how much career he can do! β
After Uncle Gu finished speaking, he smiled at me with deep meaning, and reveled in his masterpiece.
I saw that Uncle Gu might be thinking about something and didn't dare to disturb, so I gently took out a pen wash and a paperweight from my bag and put them on the table, because I was in a hurry to go out in the morning, so I wrapped these two gifts in two balls with newspapers.
"Chang Peng, what did you get?"
Uncle Gu saw that I was lying on the table, and the two ball of paper bags asked me without knowing what he meant, picked one up casually, opened it and looked at it, and immediately turned around and said coldly to Wang Qishan: "This is what you prepared!" β
Wang Qishan has been stretching his neck to pay attention to Gu Zhufeng's every move, and when he saw the wash in the paper bag, his expression also changed, and then Gu Zhufeng asked in an unkind tone, which frightened Wang Qishan into a cold sweat and shook his head like a rattle: "I didn't prepare it, I only took a box of dim sum and two bottles of old wine, Uncle Gu, don't get me wrong!" β
Wang Qishan, with such a struggling old face, actually called Uncle Gu, which made Gu Zhufeng sick to his stomach.
At that time, I didn't understand the value of these two things, I only knew that these two things were taken out of the tomb of a eunuch by the eldest brother of Shangguan, and later I learned that the eunuch was not a person who served tea and poured water, he was Zhang Yong, one of the famous eight tigers who held the dynasty during the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty.
The Imperial Horse Monitor sounds like a horse breeding unit, but in fact, the Imperial Horse Supervisor is equivalent to our today's Ministry of Defense, you can imagine that the value of the things that can be buried for the Minister of Defense of the Ming Dynasty can be poor! But at that time, I had nothing for this, and I can't blame me Who would have thought that such a priceless thing, Brother Shangguan would actually set up a stall to sell!
Back to the book, I saw that Gu Zhufeng's expression suddenly became a little serious, which reminded me of a sentence "The power of heaven is unpredictable" These big leaders are really happy and angry!
"Uncle Gu, is there anything wrong with this gift I prepared for you?" I asked cautiously.
"Chang Peng, this is really a gift you prepared for me! Can you tell me how you got these two things? After Gu Zhufeng finished speaking, he looked at me in disbelief.
I saw Uncle Gu looking serious, and said to myself, Uncle Gu is not making a big fuss, these two things are only a few thousand yuan when they look at the ordinary appearance for a long time, but there is no way to make the family an elder!
"This is a gift from a friend of mine who has forgotten my year, and I have borrowed flowers to offer to you, I hope Uncle Gu will not be surprised!" I'm telling the truth.
After hearing this, Gu Zhufeng nodded and said, "Chang Peng, what does your friend do?" β
"He also practices martial arts, and his kung fu is pretty good!" I don't understand how Uncle Gu became a mother-in-law today, and my mother and I pulled up the parents.
"Then you've made the right friend, so be it! Chang Peng put these two things here first, just let me keep them for you, let's go downstairs and sit down, and have a drink with me at noon! After Gu Zhufeng finished speaking, he rolled up the words he had just written, took them in his hands, and walked out.
We returned to the living room and saw Lao Jiu muttering something in vain, making Aunt Gu smile.
When Gu Mingshan saw me coming back, she had to ask me to go to the kitchen with her to help cook, I knew that there must be something wrong with this eldest sister, and I couldn't hide from it, so I went to the kitchen with her.
"Xiaopeng, you have to do me a favor!" As I expected, as soon as I entered the kitchen, Gu Mingshan said impatiently.
"Sister Xiaoshan and I, you are still polite, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you!" Although I said it was easy, I knew in my heart that it would not be a good job!
Gu Mingshan patted my head like a big sister and smiled: "That's right, Brother Xiaopeng, you can do whatever your sister says!" β
It is said that a man's head and a woman's waist can't be moved casually, but no matter how many times I protest with her, this Mingshan sister just likes to pat my head, and always jokes: "Why don't you hug my waist!" In this way, the two of us will be evened, anyway, you are a little broken child or something! "I don't know where she's ever seen a little broken kid like me again.
Gu Mingshan continued: "It's like this, Brother Xiaopeng, I have an old classmate who will hold an engagement banquet next week, and our classmates will go at that time, as far as I know, I am the only single nobleman among the female classmates now, I am afraid that the classmates will laugh at me at that time, so I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend and accompany me to go these days, you go to buy a better suit for me to fill the faΓ§ade, and my sister will reimburse you!" β
After Gu Mingshan finished speaking, she patted my head again, and deliberately twisted the little waist towards me.
"Good! Call me then, as long as you're not afraid that I'll embarrass you, I don't know anything about the social etiquette of the upper class, and we have to say that we will be a day! β
As soon as I finished speaking, Gu Mingshan twisted my ear and said angrily: "I didn't see that you kid still belongs to the well-behaved type of selling cheap!" Tell you that the person who wants to be my boyfriend starts queuing in front of my house and can go all the way to the United States! To give you a beauty difference, you still dragged it! β
In this way, I played with Gu Mingshan, and finally helped the nanny Aunt Liu get lunch ready.
During lunch, Uncle Gu told me a lot of interesting stories in the officialdom, and finally told me that I must use this ability to serve the party and the people in the future, and it is best to work in the Cultural and Sports Bureau in the future, so that I can serve the motherland! I listened and nodded frequently.
The most distressing thing about today's lunch is Wang Qishan, I can see that he wants to play with Uncle Gu but has never found a chance, in fact, as soon as he enters the door today, I can see that this guy doesn't know Uncle Gu at all, he just fooled me and wants to make friends with Uncle Gu through me, hehe! This plan is perfect, but the reality is cruel, where is it so easy for a person of Uncle Gu's status to climb into a relationship!
After lunch, I said goodbye to Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu, Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu are very busy, I can't disturb them here.
It was a pleasure for all of us to visit us today! Only Wang Qi Shan was depressed, it can be said that his plan to approach Uncle Gu this time was a complete failure, Uncle Gu has read countless people, and he has long understood the trickiness in this, so he left a very bad impression on Wang Qi Shan may have an impact on his future career, this is really trying to take a shortcut, but he fell into a big pit!
Before leaving, Uncle Gu gave me two pairs of words and instructed me: "Chang Peng, your current age can be said to be the best time in your life, but it is also the most critical time, in the future, whether you are a prince and a general or a small people, it depends on whether you work hard now, uncle will give you two pairs of words, you go back and have a good understanding!" If you understand this, you will take a big step towards success! β
Sitting in the car, I opened Uncle Gu's two pairs of words, which were written: "self-improvement" and "virtue", these two sentences I heard my grandfather say from the Book of Changes: Tianxingjian, a gentleman is self-improving; The terrain is kun, and the gentleman carries things with virtue!
