Chapter 85 Ruler

 Suddenly, the seven aunts and eight aunts, as well as the uncles, all let out a sigh, and Grandma Xiao Huai, who was over seventy years old, even had her cloudy eyes dimmed.

The corner of Ergu's mouth lowered: "Oh, Xiao Huai, it's such a pity. The famous lady already has an owner."

The aunt cheered up: "That's right, how can Miss Zhang, who is so beautiful and outstanding, not have a boyfriend!"

Sasa Gossip: “I’m so envious of Sister Moyan’s boyfriend!”

Xiao Mumu slapped her: "Why do you, a little brat, get in the way when adults are talking? What do you know?"

Sasa covered her head and muttered: "Sister Moyan is so cute, I think she's so cute!"

Xiao Weizhou was confused: "What are you doing? Xiao Zhang is not here for a blind date!"

Zhou Xia saw the situation and hurriedly intervened: "Uncle Weizhou, everyone is just joking! Neither Xiao Huai nor Miss Zhang will be angry, right?"

Xiao Huai apologized and said to Zhang Moyan: "They are joking, don't mind."

Zhang Moyan looked at him and shook her head helplessly: "It doesn't matter."

If Xiao Xingyu's temperament is both good and evil, Xiao Huai's temperament is 100% righteous, making you feel clear of distractions at a glance, how could she really mind.

Anyway, looking at the entire table, only Xiao Xingyu was the happiest. He looked at the woman sitting down on thin ice with a sense of relief. She was half sideways away from the young and handsome Xiao Huai, tapping her fingers on the table, and was very satisfied.

"Yao Ma," Xiao Xingyu called to Yao Ma, who was handing out hot towels to everyone, "Auntie Grandma hasn't come yet, and everyone is hungry. Go and give everyone the souvenirs that Bodyguard Zhang brought to everyone.

."

Zhang Moyan looked at Xiao Xingyu in shock. Did you make a mistake? We are about to eat!

Xiao Xingyu raised his eyebrows at her.

She really didn't know what this young man wanted to do. How could he think that people would want to eat pear paste, spiced beans when there were so many delicacies from the mountains and seas?

Sharing her snacks on such a grand occasion, wouldn't he take this as a way of thanking her for rescuing Xiao Weijiang?

"Really? Is it a specialty of Shenhai?"

"Then quickly bring it up and try it!"

"Oh, after all, girls are so attentive, they never brought any souvenirs when they came back before Xingyu!"

……

Soon, Yao’s mother packed Zhang Moyan’s souvenirs into several beautiful bone plates. I don’t know if it was because Xiao Xingyu was the favorite of the family, but everyone was very considerate of Zhang Moyan.

He showed great interest in the snacks brought by Yan, and there was even a scene of snatching them.

The aunt said: "This pear paste has a rich pear flavor and is not greasy at all."

Xiao Mumu's lover said: "When I was a child, my dad often brought me this candy when he went on business trips to Shenhai. I didn't expect that I can still buy it now, and the taste has not changed at all!"

Sasha chewed the muffin and said, "I think Sister Moyan is very cute!"

The second uncle said: "This spiced bean tastes very good and chewy. It is more suitable for drinking Maotai than peanuts!"

Xiao Weizhou said: "Chen Ming, you usually eat Maotai with peanuts. Isn't this a waste of resources?"

"Hahahaha"

……

The people at the table started chatting, and the topic gradually moved away from Zhang Moyan. Zhang Moyan finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to look at the large living room while enjoying himself.

This large living room is deep and transparent, and the ancient style still exists. If you look up, you can see the top beams and pillars of the mortise and tenon structure. There is a set of nave in the large living room, and in the middle is a huge "Travel to the Streams and Mountains".

Traveling to mountains and rivers is a common theme in Chinese landscape paintings. It depicts travelers forging ahead on rugged mountain roads in majestic mountains. Painters have begun to create this theme since the Five Dynasties. The most famous

A work by Fan Kuan of the Song Dynasty is now in the collection of the National Palace Museum in Taipei.

Regardless of the era and who the artist is, any "Travel in Streams and Mountains" has a common feature, that is, most of the space is occupied by the vast and majestic mountains. Relatively speaking, the travelers are often depicted as very small, and some are even

A piece of pen and ink the size of an ant.

It is appropriate to have such a painting hanging in the nave of the Xiao family, and it is of far-reaching significance. It makes people easily think that the towering mountain represents the climbing skills of azure glazed porcelain, and that the insignificant travelers are diligently climbing on this road.

The Xiao family.

Looking at the couplet next to this giant painting, "The clouds roll over thousands of peaks, and the wind blows across thousands of doors", and the horizontal comment "Heaven rewards those who work hard", it is a very clear expression of the Xiao family's desire to unravel the top porcelain making technology of the Northern Song Dynasty.

With the spirit of revolutionary optimism, although there are difficulties and obstacles, there will be a day when you can achieve it. Diligence can make up for your shortcomings, and success will come naturally.

Zhang Moyan couldn't help but feel awe.

Looking further down, she saw a sandalwood shelf, more than one meter long, very much like the shelf used to display Japanese samurai swords in movies and TV shows. But the one on it didn't seem to be a famous sword. She frowned and took a good look.

Look, my eyebrows jumped.

This is a wooden board that is one meter and a half long and more than a palm wide. It is made of brown paste. I don’t know what material it is made of. It looks very thick. The first time people see it, they will think, "What if this board is used?"

"It would hurt so much if I hit you".

This, I’m afraid, is the Xiao family’s ruler I heard before that can kill someone with 50 sticks!

Zhang Moyan was surprised that such a long board was called a ruler. Compared with the rulers she often saw in movies, TV series and tourist attractions in ancient towns, it was too long! Being hit by this board 50 times... it was really...

Possibility of death.

What surprised her even more was that the Xiao family actually placed the ruler, which had caused 80% of the lives of people, in the place where family members ate. Shouldn't this kind of "torture instrument" be kept on the shelf at ordinary times, and when it is necessary to punish unscrupulous descendants, they should take a bath for three days and ceremoniously take them out.

?The Xiao family is just placed in the dining area, how can it allow people to have a good meal?

Of course, what surprised her the most was the attitude of the Xiao family towards this majestic ruler.

If she were allowed to see the calligraphy and painting in the middle hall that always reminded her of her mission and the chilling ruler when she was eating every day, she might be willing to eat in the bedroom every day. However, looking at the laughter and laughter in front of her, she could only say that the psychological quality of the Xiao family was either

It's very good, or maybe everyone has become numb since this ruler has not been used for a long time.

"My great-aunt is here!"

There was a call from outside, and Zhang Moyan came back to his senses and sat upright, ready to meet the eldest elder in the family, and also prepared to be introduced as a commodity.

She rubbed her left hand with her right hand under the table. Xiao Huai saw it and smiled slightly: "Don't be nervous, my aunt has nothing to be afraid of!"

These words sounded a little disrespectful to the great aunt. Zhang Moyan looked at Xiao Huai in surprise, how could a high-quality young man say such a thing?

Just when I was so suspicious, I heard a clear child's voice running in from the yard: "I'm here, I'm here, let everyone wait, the art class teacher gave me detention today!"

A primary school student with two braided pigtails ran in panting with a schoolbag on his back and climbed to the top of the table.
