Chapter 90: Follow-up
The second more
Zeng Fan quickly knew that the old man had dropped the teapot, although he didn't know what was going on, but he was busy asking Li Ping to send another one over. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zeng Fan knows that the old man's temper is always going to fall, and he loves to visit the purple sand shop when he has nothing to do all these years. And Brother Hao also knew his brother-in-law's thoughts, and two years ago, he asked him to find another work by the master, which was about the same size as the old man's, and it was also a treasure, and he had never seen water, but the owner cherished it very much, and he wrapped it in a cotton bag and played with it lightly in his hand. Because I haven't really started it, the pot is still the same as it was, but the outside is also very delicate.
During the day, the old man and the old lady were there, but Mrs. An Yuan didn't go out to greet her as before, Li Ping didn't mind, she was already in-laws, so she didn't need to be so polite. After saluting the old man and the old lady, Li Ping asked people to give the teapot.
"What is this for?" No matter how good Mrs. An Yuan's temper is, this time it also blew up, we just provoked the old man to smash the pot, and now you are here to pretend to be a good person, this is really unbearable.
"Our master said, the teacher's temper, it's really hard not to smash the pot, I'm afraid that the teacher won't be happy, so I'm busy asking me to send a new one to his old man, I said, it's okay, you smash it slowly, isn't it just a pot!" Li Ping laughed and joked.
The old man glared at her, "What's wrong with my temper, my pot has been playing for thirty or forty years!" ”
"Yes, this is Brother Hao'er specially found, saying that the pot is a family with you, or, let's see if it's easy to hold?" Li Ping smiled, thinking that the old man could speak so loudly and full of energy, indicating that there was nothing wrong with his body, so he was relieved. They only knew that the old man's pot was broken, and they were somewhat worried that the old man was old and weak, and he didn't hold it steady for a while, but in fact, they didn't think about him losing his temper and smashing things at all. As the old man said, he has been playing for thirty or forty years, over the years, how many bad things, the old man has not smashed it, and now he has retired, and he is thinking about the new year at home, why did he smash the pot. Now it seems that she is afraid that she is really angry, so she hurriedly opened the topic and stopped touching it.
"Well, you don't have the money." The old man carefully opened the box, admired it carefully, and said to Li Ping.
"Is it expensive?" Li Ping really didn't know, Brother Hao sent someone to send it, saying that she would send Mr. An in the future, but she didn't care, so she just accepted it, and now seeing the old man like this, he said that Brother Hao was afraid that it would cost a lot of money.
"Thirty or forty years ago, that pot was already a one-of-a-kind product, and I thought the world was just that. Now he has found another one, and it is still in perfect condition, and the price is only a hundred times that of mine. You two really dare to speak, it's so expensive, you dare to let Brother Hao find it. Don't say anything in the future, you haven't touched the light of the Chen family, you have been stained big! The old man snorted, but he still picked it up with his hand carefully, looked left and right, and finally had a smile on his face, this pot is not exactly the same, if it is exactly the same, then it is fake. This is supposed to be the sister pot of that one, and at a glance you can see that they are of the same vein, but they have their own style, which makes the old man love it.
But the old man's words also meant something, but after saying it, he regretted it, and felt that he was really old, and he said it to his daughter-in-law, but he couldn't understand it if he looked like that. And if you say it to Li Ping, who can understand it, what's the use?
"Yes! So you can remember, this is a gift from Brother Hao, it has nothing to do with the two of us, we don't have that much money to buy this. Li Ping smiled, but she was blushing by the old man just now, over the years, she has also been a little bit of a finger at the Chen family, and she didn't ask for any money from the Chen family to the eldest wife, as for how much the eldest lady will have left in the future, she really doesn't mind at all.
So she really didn't feel that she had taken advantage of the Chen family. Now the old man is a little bit, and when he looks back, he didn't ask for it, but someone gave it. If she didn't have the strong economic backing of the Chen family, she wouldn't be so hard-hearted, and she knew that when she was really exhausted, the Chen family wouldn't really ignore her. It's because they have this confidence that they live so detached in Beijing! It's not bad, she was nodded by the old man in her heart, and immediately thought about herself, she didn't bring it to An Yuan and his wife, but saved a lot of tongue.
"He doesn't ask the old man for anything, why should he give it to me?" The old man didn't do it, why did he accept Brother Hao's gift, he is no longer in the court, why did he let people give such an expensive gift?
"We don't ask you either!" Li Ping was stunned for a moment, she and Zeng Fan really didn't have anything to ask for the old man over the years. At most, beg the old man not to do it, don't bring Zeng Fan over and scold him. It's just such a request, and I haven't dared to say it yet. And this is really not a reason for them to give gifts. Besides, with the relationship between the two families, they really won't give any particularly expensive gifts. was said by the old man, she didn't dare to bear this reputation, she couldn't make people think that the old man had a good relationship with Zeng Fan, and he was sent as a gift. That not only affected Zeng Fan's reputation, but also ruined the old man's ethics.
"You don't have to ask, if you give me something, it's called filial piety. Old man, I was at ease, and I turned around and called Zicheng to come, I didn't even teach my wife this, I want to be scolded! The old man roared and walked away with the teapot in his arms, smiling all over his face.
"Yes!" Li Ping also laughed, got up and answered obediently. That's right, students give gifts to teachers, what else is there to do. That's right, the old man won't be polite to them, and they haven't been polite to the old man.
The old lady also laughed, the teapot fell, and the old man was distressed, but what was even more heartbreaking was his son's shallow vision. They talked at night that Zeng Fan would be an official, but he didn't become his own official this time. He wanted to be himself again this time, so he didn't want anything, and he had to go out and fight again. It was the luck of the court, and if he was defeated, he was willing to take the responsibility of ruining his reputation.
And what An Yuan thought was, if he was allowed to become, then how could the imperial court pretend to be him? And how do they, the cabinet ministers, deal with themselves? If he loses, will the An family be affected? Therefore, in An Yuan's opinion, Zeng Fan should follow him to work on his qualifications in the cabinet, and slowly pass on the glory of the An family.
The old man was sad that when his son was in such a dilapidated state in the country, he still didn't think about why Zeng Fan did this. So when he said that Zeng Fan was 'ungrateful', the old man was really angry. The old man knew very well in his heart that he had not helped Zeng Fan anything over the years, and the person who single-handedly promoted Zeng Fan was Emperor Zhengyang. And Zeng Fanneng has been treating him like a father like a father for all these years. At this time, it was not Zeng Fan who owed him, but he owed Zeng Fan.
