Chapter 19: Offering Treasures
Huai Ming Gong's study is called Mixin Pavilion, the area is not small, and there are many books.
This pavilion is located in the depths of the main courtyard of the Guogong Mansion, and it is impossible for idlers to reach it without permission, and the elegant yellow heart fruit wood door is flanked by a wooden corridor erected by many wooden pillars, and if someone walks on it, the footsteps can easily be heard by the people in the house.
This is also the reason why the staff in the study are a little overreacting, and the sudden noise outside the study just now has no warning, making them think that someone with impure motives has come to "observe" the conversation of themselves and others.
But when everyone saw the child lying on the ground outside the door, they were relieved.
"Young Master Mo? What are you doing here, and why are you quiet? ”
Walking quickly to his side and helping him up, Lu Liang asked Zhong Limo in confusion.
Although the second young master is young, he has always known the etiquette, and he is also afraid of the grandfather, so he will actually disturb him when he and others are gathering today, thinking that it is a bit urgent.
"Uncle Lu, Mo'er is here to offer treasures, but when he arrived at the door of the study, he heard that his father and uncles were discussing things, so he didn't dare to disturb them, so he quietly walked over. I wanted to wait for the uncles to disperse before coming in, but who knew that there was a crossbar next to this threshold, and I didn't pay attention......"
Offering treasure? The staff looked at him in his hand, and he was indeed carrying a silk package, and Lu Liang turned his head to Zhong Liwu on the main seat to cast an inquiring look.
Putting down the book in his hand, Zhong Liwu looked up at his son, his eyes quickly and lightly, his gaze swept over his knees that had been rubbed to the ground by tripping, and then transferred to the package in his hand, and finally said tepidly.
"Bring it in."
After receiving the instructions, Zhong Limo picked up the package and handed it to Lu Liang, who took it and weighed it in his hand, then directly placed the package on Zhong Limo's desk, and then opened it.
Crystal? When everyone saw this transparent and shiny thing on the table, they turned their heads to look at Zhong Limo standing by the door, and their faces showed strange looks, this is the so-called treasure?
Yes, the second young master is still a child after all.
"Young Master Mo ......" Lu Liang observed Zhong Limo's face, for fear that he would be angry and scold Zhong Limo, Young Master Mo's original intention was good, but Grandpa has always been a little harsh with these two young masters.
"Father, uncles, this is no ordinary crystal, this is called ...... It's called a prism, it seems to be called this, but don't underestimate it, it can make a rainbow dragon! Zhong Limo felt the familiar look of these elders when they looked at him, but for the first time in his life, he didn't feel very panicked, he felt a little proud in his heart at the moment, and explained to everyone the power of this prism in a hurry.
Hmph, I'll surprise you later, it's really thanks to my brother-in-law, it's a good feeling.
"What?!" As soon as these words came out, all the strategists in the house changed color, some people were surprised and some people laughed, but Zhong Limo and Wei Ling stared at Zhong Limo and were silent, Lu Liang secretly wondered, artificial rainbow dragon, Young Master Mo offered the treasure for the matter of the guilty edict, how did he know?
"Uncle Wei, when Mo'er was walking in the courtyard a few nights ago, I heard that Uncle Lu was talking to Uncle Lu in the courtyard, and I knew that my uncles were worried about the rainbow dragon, so I also wanted to share the worries of my father and uncles, and then I asked for this treasure."
Zhong Liwu looked at Wei Ling and Lu Liang, the two exchanged glances, and suddenly they both smiled awkwardly, they did drink some wine in the courtyard in the middle of the night a few days ago, and after drinking, they were a little relaxed, who would have thought that they would be listened to by Young Master Mo when they were chatting.
"Father, please allow the child to demonstrate."
……
Zhong Limo didn't know very well what the scene was, but he knew that this moment seemed to be the pinnacle of his life.
These uncles whom he respected on weekdays all showed disbelief at the moment, and he was standing between his father and these uncles with his chest held high, which was a scene that only appeared in dreams in the past.
But after all, this honor was given by my brother-in-law, and I don't know when I can get their approval on my own?
In the study, after everyone patiently waited for Zhong Limo to finish his "nonsense", they all gathered around the colors on the wall, and there was only surprise in their eyes.
"Young Master Mo, where did you get this treasure?" Lu Liang looked at Zhong Limo in surprise, this triangular prism can really be called a treasure.
"Uncle Lu, I asked my brother-in-law for help in this matter, and this prism was also given to me by him."
Brother-in-law? The strategists looked at each other, and the grandfather seemed to have only one son-in-law, and that was the proton......
But that proton was extremely dull before, and his personality was still withdrawn...... By the way, I've heard a little about it recently, and I heard that this uncle in the house had a feat a few days ago, which is quite amazing, could it be that he suddenly changed his temperament and opened his mind, or did he have some forbearance before?
"Grandpa, this prism is promising." Wei Ling looked at the colored light on the wall, his eyes flickered, he didn't care who this thing came from, but it could play a big role in the hands of himself and others at the moment, and that was enough.
Hearing this, Zhong Limo also breathed a sigh of relief, it's good to be useful! He was afraid that he would toss for a long time, not only did he not help, but he also ended up in the name of grandstanding.
Looking at the triangular crystal pillar on the table, Zhong Liwu did not smile.
After thinking silently for a long time, when everyone in the study stopped discussing, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhong Limo in front of the door and asked:
"Can you finish your studies this decade?"
Hearing this, Zhong Limo was stunned, wasn't it time to go to the reward link next, why did he suddenly ask about his schoolwork...... But when his father asked, he didn't dare to hesitate and immediately replied:
"Father, the child is not finished yet, today is only the fifth day, and there is still some time before the end of early March."
"If you haven't finished your schoolwork, why are you smart and meddling?" Zhong Li's voice began to be a little stern.
"Father's ......"
"Get out."
"I ......"
"Go back. You have merit in offering treasure, distraction is a fault, and the merit is offset, and you will not be punished this time. It's just that you need to know what you should do and what you shouldn't do. Zhong Limo frowned, staring directly at Zhong Limo with his eyes, and the accent in his words became more and more.
"Yes." Zhong Limo didn't dare to look at him, lowered his head, his eyes suddenly turned a little red, but he didn't shed tears, he bit the root of his teeth, arched his hands, and replied heavily:
"The child knows, and he will leave."
After saying that, he turned and ran out of the door, and tapped the door behind him with his hand as he went out.
The wooden door slammed against the frame, creaking as it swayed, and the sound of continuous footsteps in the hallway quickly faded away.
The guests in the study did not dare to speak, but Lu Liang walked to the door and gently closed the door.
Zhong Liwu closed his eyes for a moment, and after opening his eyes, he picked up the silk next to the desk and wrapped the prism, then turned to Wei Ling and ordered:
"Go find some better quality crystals, let the craftsmen make a larger one according to this mold, and when they are finished, return the crystal to me......
