Chapter 84: Offering the Pine Crane Diagram
Hearing Ma Yangping's low warning, Fang Yantao restrained himself a little, shrugged indifferently, picked up the wine glass and continued to drink himself.
The old lady didn't say anything, but it didn't mean that other people didn't have any ideas, Li Mingyuan stood next to Xiahou Yong, and he could clearly see that the face of this smug Hou Ye on weekdays was deep and terrifying, and he was obviously really angry in his heart. It's just holding back.
After Xiahou Yong's birthday, the next thing was that the lady came forward to congratulate the birthday with the baby, and the old lady saw that the baby grandson smiled even more happily, and happily rewarded two red envelopes. This time, Fang Yantao finally quieted down, which relieved Ma Yangping, who had been highly nervous.
Mrs. and the little marquis have finished their birthdays, so who should be their turn next, everyone is looking forward to it, because the next person to pay homage to his birthday is undoubtedly the person who cares most about Xiahou Yong and even the entire Hou Mansion.
Li Mingyuan, who had been standing aside, found that the old lady, Xia Houyong, and Mrs. were all staring at him, and he wondered a little in his heart, what are you doing looking at me decently?
Xiahou Yong looked at Li Mingyuan with a cute expression, and couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, and said angrily, "Mingyuan, why are you stupid?" Don't come forward to pay your respects? ”
"Me?" Li Mingyuan couldn't believe his ears, whether it was by generation or status, it was not his turn.
Wondering in his heart, Li Mingyuan did not hesitate at the moment, took the brocade box and kowtowed respectfully to the old lady, "The old lady is above, Mingyuan wishes you eternal youth, the more you live, the happier you are!" ”
Li Mingyuan's ingenious congratulatory message made everyone laugh, even Fang Yantao laughed dryly, as for what he meant by this laughter, no one knew what he meant.
"Silly boy, why are you called Lao Taijun again, weren't you my grandmother just now? Everyone is here today, I will announce something, Mingyuan, this child has a great kindness to my Xiahou, his parents died early, he is lonely, I plan to accept him as a grandson, Yong'er, do you agree? The old lady looked at Li Mingyuan and said with a kind face.
"It's all up to your mother!" Xiahou Yong's attitude was acquiesced, and the lady on the side also nodded again and again, even if the distant relatives of the two families present were unwilling, it was not good to argue anymore, and the people all voted unanimously, so don't follow the blind mixing.
For a while, Li Mingyuan was completely a carp jumping over the dragon gate in everyone's eyes, and became the godson of Lao Taijun, that is, Xiahou Yong's godson, who directly crossed the level from a cloth cloth to the son of a wealthy family.
Li Mingyuan, who was kneeling, was still in a fog of brains, and before he could react, he had officially become the godgrandson of the old lady? Am I not a general? Why did you suddenly change from a migrant worker in the Hou Mansion to the owner of the Hou Mansion? Isn't this happiness too fast?
"Good grandson, don't kneel, get up quickly!" The old lady saw that Li Mingyuan was still kneeling stupidly, and hurriedly reminded.
Li Mingyuan, who reacted, got up and hugged the brocade box with a hint of excitement, "Today's grandma's seventieth birthday, my grandson was thinking about what kind of congratulatory gift to prepare for grandma a month ago, thinking about it, I think grandma is a Buddhist believer, so I prepared a gadget, I believe grandma will like it!" ”
After speaking, Li Mingyuan opened the brocade box in the expectation of the old lady, and took out a golden Buddha from it, "This Buddha statue, specially invited to chant the master and opened the light, today it is presented to grandma, may my Buddha bless, grandma will live a long life, and the blessing will last." ”
The moment Li Mingyuan took out the Buddha statue, the old lady was very fond of it, and after listening to Li Mingyuan's festive words, his heart was even more happy, and he specially asked Li Mingyuan to present the golden Buddha to himself, and carefully watched it in his hand.
"Good grandson, this is pure gold?" The old lady has been on fire for most of her life, of course, she is very knowledgeable, originally she thought that this was just a bronze Buddha, and there was just a layer of golden phoenix outside, but after playing with it for a while, she found that it was completely made of pure gold.
"Grandma's good eyesight! What's the matter, is this congratulatory gift grandma satisfied? Li Mingyuan said happily.
The old lady was a little surprised and said, "Mingyuan, where did you get so much money, don't do illegal things to make grandma happy, otherwise no matter how expensive the gift granny is, she won't accept it!" ”
The old lady's concerned words made Li Mingyuan's heart hot, and he immediately said confidently, "Grandma can't trust her grandson?" Don't worry, this money is all earned by my grandson himself, and I will tell my grandmother about the experience of how to make money when I look back! ”
Hearing this, the old lady nodded reassuringly, "Okay, I believe my eldest grandson, I will accept your congratulatory gift, and when you get married and marry your daughter-in-law, grandma will also prepare a big gift for you!" After saying that, the grandfather and grandson laughed at the same time.
The gifts presented by these people are bejeweled and dazzling, that is, they are rich and not tacky, and the old lady smiled and accepted them one by one, but compared with Li Mingyuan's Golden Buddha, these gifts are not only new or valuable, they have fallen several grades.
Taking advantage of the time period when everyone celebrated their birthdays, Li Mingyuan asked his acquaintances about Fang Yantao's details, he had a hunch that he would definitely do it with this Fang Yantao, in order to mess up his own situation at that time, he decided to find out the details of his opponent first, know himself and his opponent, and be invincible!
It turns out that this Fang Yantao really has some ability, don't look at his young age, he is already a person, and what is even crazier is that he actually worshiped under the sect of Cihang Jingzhai Wenzong Zheng Tang Boen, Tang Boen is a famous Confucian all over the world, this Fang Yantao can be appreciated by him at a young age, obviously a talented master, plus a noble birth, an artistic youth plus the identity of the second generation of officials, it is strange that he is not crazy.
"Interesting, challenging!" Li Mingyuan looked at Fang Yantao, who was about to get up to offer a gift, and felt a little eager to try.
After saying a few words, Fang Yantao presented the congratulatory gift he prepared, different from others, he prepared a copy of his own painting "Pine Crane Picture", he has a good tutor since he was a child, and there is a famous teacher to tutor, so this Fang Yantao's painting is still good, the pine and white crane jumped on the paper, quite a bit of artistic conception.
If the old lady is also an elegant person who is addicted to calligraphy and painting, then Fang Yantao's words are really the right person, but the old lady is an illiterate old lady in the countryside, what does it mean that you Fang Yantao sent the deputy "Pine Crane Picture", which is worth pondering.
Without waiting for the old lady to speak, some civil officials around him nodded and praised each other, obviously thinking that this painting had a lot of depth. This made Fang Yantao even more proud in his heart. I feel that my congratulatory gifts are completely heaven and earth compared to these gold and silver jewelry.
