There are only three days left for the Chinese New Year, and the days before this year have been extremely busy day and night. Every time Fang Fang calls her or makes a video call, she is busy and has no time to spare!

The New Year is coming, and Fang Fang feels that he must pay a visit to Chao's home to show his respect! So Fang Fang did not notify Chao Xi in advance, but went to buy a lot of gifts and new year's goods by himself, and had a "sudden surprise"

"Attack", and this time the sudden attack relied on the help of the good brothers of Fang Fang! I rang the doorbell of Chao's old house, and after waiting for a while, the aunt at home ran to open the door. When she saw it was Fang Fang, she laughed.

He said bluntly, "Uncle Zhun is here..." After saying that, he hurriedly took the things in Fang Fang's hand that were almost out of his grasp and invited him into the living room, "Mr. Chao, look who is here."

Got it!"

Mr. Chao was sitting on the sofa, holding a magnifying glass and looking at something. Hearing the words of his aunt at home, he couldn't help but raise his head. When he saw it was Fangfang, he immediately showed an excited expression, "It's Fangfang. Come on, come on.

Come on, help me see if this handle is made of boxwood or waterwood."

He greeted Fang Fang. After hearing his words, Fang Fang immediately put down the things in his hands and walked towards the old man, "I spent more than 400,000 yuan to buy this hand piece. Then Old Man Yang said that this piece of mine is made of water boxwood, not

Real boxwood, how is that possible?

Although I am older, my eyesight is not dim yet!"

Mr. Chao was very angry, "The money is secondary. The main thing is that I can't afford to lose this person. I have to find out whether it is boxwood or waterwood!"

"Okay, grandpa, don't be angry, let me help you take a look and see what kind of material ours is made of!"

With a smile on his face, Fang Fang approached the piece in Mr. Chao's hand and observed it carefully.

In fact, boxwood and water boxwood are similar in texture, texture, and structure.

Water boxwood literally means boxwood with water added. A boxwood with moisture is not a real boxwood! The growth cycle of boxwood is very slow. It blooms in winter and sets seeds in spring. It usually takes four or five years to grow.

It takes ten years to grow to a height of 3-5 meters, and the diameter is less than 15 meters, so there is a saying that "a thousand-year-old boxwood is difficult to grow" and "a thousand-year-old boxwood is difficult to shoot", so this boxwood is really expensive.

It's as rare as gold! "Grandpa, look... this style of handle must be hundreds of years old. Since it has not faded, but... it looks heavy.

The color is rich. You see, how beautiful it is in maroon! So this should be a real boxwood handle, but..." Fang Fang paused and asked the old man, "It's just that...

What?"

"It's just that... there is a legend in ancient times, saying that the boxwood will not only not grow long in leap years, but will shorten! Song Su Shi once said, 'The boxwood grows one inch in one year, and retreats three inches in leap years.'

It is known as the 'thousand-year short'! Therefore, there will be a faint horizontal shallow line every few centimeters on the wood grain of the boxwood, but the one on your hand... does not have it!"

Fang Fang discovered that the reason why everyone thought the handle on Mr. Chao’s hand was a fake was because of this shallow line, “Huh?

I've heard about this too, but...does the absence of these shallow lines mean that the product in my hand is a fake?"

Mr. Chao said angrily, Fang Fang looked old, and couldn't help but smile, "Of course not, that shallow streak is just a legend, there is no scientific research, and it is true that some boxwoods have it, and some don't."

It will appear! So this cannot be the standard and important basis for determining whether this object is boxwood. The reason why your old friends said that...I think it is because they are jealous of you!"

He hit the nail on the head, making Mr. Chao keep nodding his head, "Yes, yes, equation, you are so right! They are just jealous of me, those old guys are so childish!"

The old man Chao was very angry, but then he picked up his boxwood piece and started caressing it happily, "I feel relieved when you say it's true! Alas, as I get older, I start to have doubts about my own eyesight.

If you have doubts, you won’t be able to accept it anymore!”

The old man sighed and said, "What is old?

Grandpa, you will keep getting stronger and stronger, and you will still be able to grasp big objects when you are a hundred years old!"

"Hahaha, can you still watch it when you are a hundred years old?

Then you are no longer an old goblin..." Mr. Chao laughed loudly and said, "Grandpa, who are you chatting with so happily? I can hear your hearty laughter from upstairs!"

Chao Xi's voice suddenly came down the stairs. Fang Fang couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he heard his girlfriend's voice. Thinking about her surprise when she saw him later, he wanted to laugh! "Xiao Xi, look who's coming.

!”

Chao Xi smiled and called to the old man, "Who is it..." Chao Xi looked into the living room as she went downstairs. The moment she saw the equation, she was stunned, and then she subconsciously looked down.

Looking at the lace nightgown on her body, her sleepy eyes and messy hair, she couldn't help but shout, "Ah... why didn't you tell me that you were here! You..."

.Wait a minute... I haven’t even washed my face!”

Chao Xi ran back upstairs in panic and slammed the door with a bang.

Fang Fang was a little stunned by her reaction. Why did the style of painting change suddenly? Shouldn't he be so excited that he threw himself into his arms?

Why did you run away?

Shy?

"Why did you run away? It's not like I've never seen you like this before..." Fang Fang muttered in a low voice, "Have you seen it before?

When did you see me..." Mr. Chao on the side asked softly with a gossipy face, "It's just..." Fang Fang was about to say it when he realized something was wrong and turned his head.

I saw Mr. Chao looking at me with a smile on his face, with an expression of "Let me catch you", "Grandpa... no, please listen to my explanation..." The equation suddenly

He panicked, "Hahaha... You don't need to explain to me. I understand my granddaughter. She is not someone to reassure her. She

You won't hand over yours casually, I understand! Besides, I have long considered you to be my grandson-in-law, so...go on, go upstairs, you two young men

We haven’t seen each other for a long time! Her parents went shopping for New Year’s goods

I'm going, I guess I'll have to come back very late, and I... I also have to take my boxwood to settle accounts with those old guys, and I'll probably be back around dinner time, so..."

He smiled "hehe" at the old man and turned around to take the coat off the hanger.

and hat, he put it on neatly, swayed out with his hands behind his back! Before leaving, he also asked the aunt at home to entertain Fang Fang for dinner, and asked her to go to the supermarket to buy more fresh fish, meat, eggs and vegetables, so that she could go shopping for a long time.

It doesn't matter at all, as long as there's time to make dinner

! Fang Fang was caught off guard and was warmed up by his grandfather. He began to doubt whether this was Chao Xi's grandfather or his own grandfather! After relaxing for a long time, Fang Fang burst into laughter. It seemed... himself

Is it time to give Chao Xi one?

It’s time to get married! If you bring Chao Xi home for the New Year this time, you and she will be urged to get married! Although this thing is beautiful and happy, there is always a fishbone in Fang Fang’s heart, himself.

..... Do you have the ability to live a happy life day and night? What if one day in the future, Chi You rises, and I... "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore, maybe... that will be the next life."

Maybe... I can accompany you day and night for a happy life!"
