Chapter 143: An Eagle Walks a Dog

Shi Lei drove the Raptor pickup truck with good off-road performance, and tried his best to pull Old Man Huang and Grandma Huang, who was still a little relieved, to the artificial lake at the top of the mountain.

Shi Lei roared, and Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin quickly flew down to the open space in front of Shi Lei. Shi Lei went up to communicate with the two sea eagles first, and then helped Old Man Huang tidy up the arm guards, signaling that the two sea eagles could take off.

"This male eagle is still a different species, and it has a circle of feathers like a golden crown on its head, well, it's good. This female eagle is also larger than its peers, and it is a rare alien species. An old man who was carefully observing the two sea eagles opened his mouth and praised again and again.

"Old man, you are ready, I will let them fall on your arms in turn, you can always stretch out your arm with arm guards to steady." Shi Lei still cautiously admonished, and stood not too far away from the old man, just in case.

"No problem, let them come, I can't wait." The old man was in high spirits.

Seeing that the old man was in a good state, Shi Lei signaled that Xiao Jin was okay, and then saw Xiao Jin swooping down in a standard pounce posture, and only when he reached a place not far above the old man did he fan his wings vigorously, and after recovering his strength, he gently landed on the old man's outstretched armguard.

This is what Shi Lei specially explained, not only to let the old man feel the heroic posture of the eagle fighting, but also not to really bring any burden to the old man.

However, when Xiao Jin flew above the old man with a huge air current. Grandma Huang still looks like her heart is pinched, but the old man is still so calm. Perhaps this is another manifestation of the literary atmosphere.

Seeing that Old Man Huang caught Xiao Jin very smoothly, Grandma Huang was relieved, and Shi Lei was secretly relieved. Pick up the camera and walk a little further in front of the old man, ready to capture a few shots.

However, Shi Lei still didn't let Xiaoyin fall, its size was too big, and Shi Lei was afraid that the old man would not be able to afford it.

Shi Lei gestured to follow the hairball that came as a prop. The hairball ran to the old man very obediently and lay down tamely. also habitually posed for a cute pose.

Seeing that Shi Lei had set up the camera, the old man waved his arm vigorously, allowing Xiao Jin to take off along the line. Shi Lei dutifully took the camera to record all kinds of wonderful moments, but Grandma Huang was still a little worried when she saw the old man's sudden movements. I guess I'm afraid that the old man will flash his waist or something.

Shi Lei smiled comfortingly at Grandma Huang, only to get a slightly reluctant smile from Grandma Huang. Shi Lei still turned his head and focused on capturing the process of Xiaojin pounced again to land.

After everything was done, Mr. Huang, who was too addicted, came over to look at the photo in Shi Lei's hand.

Seeing that the hairball in the photo has always maintained a cute appearance, Old Man Huang shook his head with a little crying and laughing.

"Stone, do you think you should change the expression of the furball, this look is not powerful enough." The old man was still a little dissatisfied and said.

"No problem, I'll make it look strict." Shi Lei hurriedly walked up and said the hairball. The hairball still has an aggrieved expression, didn't you let me sell cute as soon as I saw a photo......

After Shi Lei communicated with Maoqiu, Maoqiu really made a majestic expression with a stern expression. didn't lie there anymore, but stood in front of the old man very vigilantly. asked Xiao Jin to do the process again, and this time the photo finally satisfied the old man.

"Let's go, go back." The old man looked proud, and he made a very majestic posture of walking, and he was very general-like.

Grandma Huang saw that the old man had finally ended his childish nonsense. I put my mind at ease and hurriedly got in the car and went back together.

When it came back to the main room. The old man waved his hand to the furball, and walked into the living room with his hands behind his back.

Colin and Emily were chatting with Laura, and there were all kinds of fruits and snacks made by Shi Lei in front of them, and the tea had already been brewed.

Seeing the old man walk in, Colin and Emily, like Laura, quickly stood up, and watched the old man sit down on the main seat before sitting down and continuing to chat.

Shi Lei hurriedly poured tea for the old man and Grandma Huang, and delivered it to the two elders with both hands.

"Well, the stone kid is really good." The old man nodded with satisfaction, and praised Shi Lei in front of him for the first time, and Shi Lei smiled a little shyly.

"Let's go, take me around this house, it looks quite tasteful." The old man took a sip of tea, put it on the table, and motioned to Shi Lei, asking him to lead the way.

"This house was built on the last two owners of the ranch, and in my opinion, it should be a Japanese person, because this house has a Zen style, and the Zen room and courtyard have a more obvious Japanese style." Shi Lei led the old man around while introducing.

"Oh." The old man replied lightly, and there was no other emotion because of this.

The old man followed Shi Lei around the house, and the Zen room and courtyard were the focus of the old man's attention.

"The Zen room is good, it's good to drink tea, but it makes you look like a four." Seeing the situation in the Zen room, the old man shook his head and counted Shi Lei with a smile.

"Well, this courtyard is well cooked, but a few trees have grown out of shape, and although they have been trimmed, they are still not in the best condition."

When he heard the old man's words, Shi Lei felt a little embarrassed next to him, and the reason for this was not because Shi Lei was too lazy and didn't pay attention to it.

"Well, these bamboos added later are very good, especially this pavilion, which adds a bit of flavor to this yard, not as small as the Japanese style at the beginning, and has become a little more atmospheric. Whose hand is this? The old man asked with interest.

"My father came to stay for a while during the summer vacation, and when he saw that I was neglecting the garden, he did some tidying up. He usually likes to raise flowers and plants, and he is an idle person. I'm a little lazy, and those trees are crooked. Shi Lei said with some shyness.

Shi Lei happily admitted his shortcomings in front of the old man. This cover-up can't be covered, and Shi Lei is not a person with many city governments, so he simply ordered it in front of the old man.

"Hmm. You do have a bad deal in this regard. Grandpa Huang patted Shi Lei with a smile.

"Yes, I will try my best in the future." Shi Lei said with some lack of confidence, according to his own temperament, it is difficult to say whether he can become as diligent as his father, so Shi Lei still does not dare to give this promise, so he can only say it vaguely.

"Well, it's good to have that attitude. And you don't casually promise things that you don't necessarily do. This is still worth affirming. The old man still saw through Shi Lei's meaning at a glance.

The old man spent the most time in the study. Seeing the four treasures of the study room that were fully prepared in the study, the old man looked a little relieved.

"Oh? Whose Mobao is this? The old man saw the words "Tranquility and Far-reaching" left by his father Shi Yi on the table. Some of them asked happily.

"It was left by my father when he came last time, and he usually insisted on practicing calligraphy, and sometimes he had to exchange calligraphy with a few uncles, and he also liked calligraphy." Shi Lei explained carelessly.

"Hmm. It can be seen that this word is written very skillfully, but these four words are still a little pyrotechnic, it seems that your father has a more upright personality, and he hasn't completely let go, but there is also a bit of a quiet taste, and it shouldn't be a problem if there is a breakthrough in time. "Old man, this is a person from the word.

"Yes, my father had a straightforward personality all his life, and these words were written after my father came to live on the ranch for a while, and he also said at the time that he had some understanding. So I was very happy when I finished writing these words. ”

Shi Lei agrees with the old man's words, and also admires the old man's insight.

"Oh, is that really the case?" The old man seemed to touch his meticulous beard indifferently. "I'm in a good mood today, for the sake of you asking me to talk about teenage madness, I'll be crazy again.

What words does the kid like? I'll leave it to you. My level, to put it mildly, is still better than your Lao Tzu. "What the old man said is definitely domineering.

Shi Lei has no doubt about this. An old man who looks like a traditional literati, he has persevered for so many years. The calligraphy is definitely very high, and the hand that the old man showed just now has shown the old man's extremely high level of calligraphy.

"That's great, old man, wait a minute, I'll polish the ink for you, the paper and all kinds of brushes are ready-made, you pick a suitable one first."

Shi Lei hurriedly took out the ancient method ink that he prepared for his father when he returned to China last time, as well as several other four treasures of good quality study, all of which were ready to be placed on the large board table made of wood cut from the log in the study.

"Well, the guy is okay, it should be easy to use. Say, what words do you want, first explain it, it can't be too long, it's too long, my body can't bear it, and it will be ruined when I write it. Old Man Huang asked.

"Then I'll be cheeky enough to thank the old man's Mobao first, please give me eight words, 'It's better to be poor than to keep the middle', this is my favorite sentence." Shi Lei didn't see the old man too much.

"Oh? Stone, you are young, how can you like this sentence of Lao Tzu? The old man looked at Shi Lei with some curiosity.

"Well, I want to use this sentence to remind myself to be sensitive to things and cautious in words, to respect people, things, and things, and always have a benevolent heart. I also remind myself that I must never forget my original intention at all times. Shi Lei said all his thoughts.

"Well, it's very good, it's really rare for you to have such an understanding at a young age. Okay, I'll leave you this sentence. After the old man finished speaking, he calmed down, adjusted his state, and then finished writing these eight words in one go.

"Where, take it." The old man, who felt that he was still satisfied, took out a jade seal that looked like Hetian jade from his inner pocket, and left four ancient seal characters of "Huang Hansheng Seal".

After taking a closer look and feeling that there was nothing wrong, the old man handed this ink treasure to Shi Lei.

"Thank you, grandpa." Shi Lei simply called his grandfather, "I want to hang up your ink treasure as a instruction, but I don't know if there is a way to frame calligraphy and paintings here?" Shi Lei said with some hesitation.

"Yes, go to Chinatown in Los Angeles and find Old Man Hu from Gu Yuexuan, although this guy's name is a bit vulgar and he is suspected of being lazy, but the style at hand is still good, and it is more than enough to frame my words."

After the old man Huang finished speaking, he took the lead in walking out of the study, Shi Lei cleaned up the things in the study a little, and put away the old man's ink treasure well, before following the old man's footsteps and walking downstairs together. (To be continued) R655
