Guan Xihe took the lead in opening the long wooden box, placed the scroll on the table and slowly opened it, only to see the four characters "Houdude carries blessings" written on it.
"Thousands of virtues carry blessings" comes from "Guoyu·Jinyu Six". I heard that only those who are virtuous can receive many blessings. Those who obey without virtues will surely hurt themselves. It means that those who are virtuous can receive many blessings. It would be appropriate to give it to people within the system.
"Okay! Good words!"
Guan Xihe couldn't help but applaud when he saw such good calligraphy. The four big characters were vigorous, bold and elegant, but he also understood the beauty of Wang Xizhi's Eight Methods of Yongzi. Guan Xihe loved Wang Xizhi's copybooks most in his life and would copy them almost whenever he had free time. one.
Although his attainments in calligraphy are not high, his eyesight is not lacking. This calligraphy is already a school of its own. Even if it is said to be made by a master, he will not be surprised.
'Can a young man write such good calligraphy? '
'Could it be that this kid deliberately spent a lot of money to buy it for the sake of face? '
Thinking of this, Guan Xihe's impression of Li Jie was even worse.
"Guan Guan, tell dad honestly, did you buy this calligraphy outside?"
Guan Ju'er was already prepared. He took out his cell phone with a smile and showed the video he had recorded before.
"Dad, I knew you didn't believe it. Hey, the original video is here. Just take a look and you'll know. Not to mention you, I was also shocked when I saw Xie Tong writing for the first time."
"oh?"
Guan Xihe sighed softly, took the mobile phone handed over by Guan Ju'er, and clicked the play button. The first thing that caught his eye was a panoramic view. The person who shot this video was probably his daughter.
The camera slowly came closer, and a handsome young man was seen holding a large wolf-hair pen.
start!
Following the girl's "go", the young man took the pen and dipped it in the well-ground ink, and then started writing like a god, writing the four characters in one go without any pause. It looked like the handwriting was exactly the same as the copybook in front of him.
At this point, although the facts are somewhat difficult to accept, the evidence is so solid that there is no reason to disbelieve it.
"well!"
Guan Xihe sighed and was deeply shocked. He didn't expect that he had been writing calligraphy for most of his life, but in the end he couldn't compare with a young man in his early twenties.
"The future life is terrible!"
People often say that observing characters is like observing people. People who can write and speak such characters will never have bad character. Guan Xihe's impression of Li Jie suddenly increased.
Although Qin Mintao can't write, he can still distinguish between good and bad handwriting by reading a lot.
"Okay, you can show off your skills in front of us two, so what's the point of being disappointed?"
"you……"
Guan Xihe couldn't refute for a while. He was indeed a bit unable to use his handwriting, and his wife often teased him about this.
"Um?"
Qin Mintao couldn't help but exclaimed when he opened the wooden box in his hand. Inside the box was an ice jade pendant with a smiling Maitreya Buddha carved on it.
"What's wrong?"
Guan Xihe turned around and asked. Qin Mintao took out the pendant. Under the light, it looked more transparent, pure and full of radiance.
"This is too expensive. It's not appropriate to accept such a good gift for the first time."
"In this way, Guan Guan, you can return these two things later, and we will accept this piece of writing."
Guan Xihe put the pendant into the box, and then pushed it to Guan Ju'er together with the box in front of him.
Guan Ju'er had said the same thing to Li Jie before, but later she was persuaded by Li Jie.
"Dad, Mom, look, I have one too!"
Guan Juer took out the pendant hanging around her neck, and then recounted the stone gambling incident again.
"No, you have to take it back and give it back to him. These two things add up to at least 200,000 yuan. We can't accept them!"
Guan Xihe had a firm attitude and said categorically that although Qin Mintao liked him in his heart, he still had some sense of propriety. If his daughter was already engaged to the other party, then he would accept it. At most, the dowry would be thicker. .
Now the two young people have just been dating for a short time, and they may be separated in the future. How can they just accept such an expensive gift?
"Girl, listen to your father and retreat later."
Guan Ju'er said dejectedly: "Okay, I understand."
'If Xie Tong were here, he would definitely be able to convince his parents. '
In fact, Li Jie sent this gift with the intention of testing you. If Guan Guan's parents accept this gift, then at least it means that the other party recognizes him in his heart. If he takes it away, then he probably doesn't recognize him in his heart, but this point He did not explain it to Guan Ju'er.
"So, your parents didn't take it?"
On Sunday afternoon, on the way back, Guan Juer told Li Jie that her parents had confiscated the gifts. The reason why she did not tell Li Jie in Weixin was because she was afraid that she could not explain clearly in a few words, which would cause a lot of misunderstandings.
Guan Ju'er has hardly found a chance to go out in the past two days. Guan's father and mother Guan seemed to intentionally or unintentionally not give her a chance to go out alone.
"Yes, my parents were very resolute at the time, and I couldn't convince them."
"I'm sorry. It's because I was stupid and didn't say what you taught me. Also, I left you alone outside for the past two days."
Li Jie smiled and took one hand off the steering wheel to hold Guan Ju'er's hand.
"Fool, what's there to be sorry for? Let's do the math. Now that you're working, you have to go back less often. Although the Magic City is relatively close to Xinwu, going back ten or so times a year is not too much, right? ?”
"Including Chinese New Year, long holidays, weekends, etc., on average you only stay at home for about four days at most at a time. You can spend no more than two months with your parents a year at most, but what about you and me?"
"We are together almost every day, how can I be angry because you spend time with your family?"
Guan Ju'er stared at Li Jie affectionately and whispered softly: "Thank you!"
Although there were some twists and turns on this trip home, her parents still approved of her falling in love. Guan Ju'er seemed to have been relieved of a big burden, and she felt much more relaxed.
"There's no need to say thank you between us." Li Jie squeezed her hand and said without looking away: "Okay, now you can finally feel relieved. We can be together openly. How about you take some time?" Come home with me?"
Guan Ju'er lowered her head shyly when she heard this, biting her lips, her eyes full of smiles. She was really happy when she heard this. She had fantasized about it countless times before, but when it came to this moment, it really happened. , she just realized that she didn't seem to be fully prepared.
"How about waiting a little longer?"
"Okay, I'll wait until you're ready, anytime!"
