Chapter 102: Acknowledging the Ancestors and Returning to the Nest
One day at the end of July 1995, Li Housheng visited Duobaolou at four or five o'clock in the morning. Li Huqiu formally kowtowed to recognize his grandfather. However, he did not go home with Li Housheng, and the grandfather and grandson made love.
After an hour-long conversation, Li Housheng took the people away. Except for the person involved, no one knew what they talked about. After Li Housheng returned, he summoned Li Yuanchao to his room and scolded him, saying, "You will not be able to kill your wife within three years."
When I get my son back, don’t fucking call me Lao Tzu.
In early August, there was a gathering at the Ashoka Temple in Yongcheng, Zhejiang Province. In front of Yan Mingqian, he led Little Swallow up the stream of people, with a worried look on his face.
Little Yanzi had never smiled since she brought her back. After Yan Yuqian learned about her search for the child's family, he became furious and ordered her to go to Hancheng three times again. This time, she was not ambiguous and made a serious search.
In the end, she still found nothing, but she did find out a name, Li Huqiu! When Yan Yuqian learned the name, he was stunned. Yan Mingqian said several words to her as if he didn't realize it.
Mingqian has never seen his sister act so gloomy in all his life.
Yan Yu asked a lot of questions about Li Huqiu one after another. All Yan Ming knew before was only what the Park Police Station told her. He looked like a very young boy and gave a rough description of his body and appearance. The people and the land were unfamiliar to each other, so he went out.
Everything is difficult, and there is only so much information that Yan Mingqian can grasp. Yan Yuqian could not hold himself back and decided to go to Hacheng in person to fully understand whether Li Huqiu was his biological son. This trip unexpectedly left him
For more than three months, except for calling back from time to time to control the operation of the remote control group, she spent all her time looking for Li Huqiu. She really got a lot of details.
Yan Ming has been so worried these days. Her sister has not even returned home because of this mysterious Li Huqiu. She has to devote most of her energy to taking care of Xiao Yanzi every day. According to the kindergarten teacher, Xiao Yanzi is very smart.
She learns things quickly, but she is not gregarious and does not like to talk much. What is particularly worrying is that she never smiles. Xiao Yanzi still does not trust the nanny and only recognizes Yan Mingqian, so it takes up most of her energy.
Yan Yuqian called her back and told her that she must take good care of the child and make way for the child in business matters. There should be no mistakes.
Yan Mingqian felt that something was unusual. His sister often ran to the north in the past, but this was the first time she had lived like this for several months. Yan Mingqian found that although her sister's mood had become irritable recently, she seemed to have a few more emotions.
In the past, she always felt that her sister had never been truly happy. No matter how many achievements she made in business, her sister's heart was always as calm as water. It seemed that all the glory of others were just a passing cloud in her eyes. Yan Ming had never seen her truly happy before.
She had been angry and anxious, but now she was eagerly looking for the person named Li Huqiu. Her emotions were easily revealed, which made Yan Mingqian feel that her sister seemed to have become more amiable.
The changes in her sister are mixed, but the change in Xiao Yanzi is worrying. Yan Mingqian has begun to regret wishful thinking that Xiao Yanzi lacks care. The little girl obviously has hidden worries in her heart. She is always thinking about the person who took care of her when she grew up.
Yan Mingqian took Xiao Yanzi up the mountain today because he heard a news that there is a mysterious figure in the rich circle recently, known as Master Jingning. It is said that this man is extremely miraculous. He is an expert in medicine and divination, and his fortune telling is unparalleled.
.Yan Mingqian thought that Xiao Yanzi's inability to smile might be a mental illness, and then thought of the little fairy who was said to be unparalleled in fortune-telling. He asked her to see a doctor and tell fortunes, whether it was to predict Xiao Yanzi's illness or to predict the presence of Li Huqiu.
No matter where, the current problems of their sisters can be solved.
The open space in front of the temple is crowded with tourists and vendors, most of whom sell handicrafts. The famous local gold and silver embroidery is famous throughout the country and plays a leading role in this temporary market formed by the temple fair. Li Hu
Qiu and Xiao Luoyan walked together, listening to Xiao Luoyan introduce the gold and silver embroidery to him.
In the history of arts and crafts in Yongcheng, the most famous crafts are gold and silver embroidery, vermilion wood carving, clay gold paint and bone wood inlay, commonly known as "three golds and one inlay". Among them, Zhao Puchu once wrote "Pouring" for the gold and silver embroidery.
"The past and the present, cutting the clouds and the moon, exotic flowers and plants, magical pens and wonderful needles" are four lines of praise. His representative work "Hundred Cranes Rising to the Sun" won the 1989 Eighth Chinese Arts and Crafts Hundred Flowers Gold Cup (Treasure) Award.
The so-called gold and silver embroidery is a kind of handicraft embroidered with gold thread (silver thread) on silk texture and combined with threads of various colors. It has a long history. The earliest example comes from the Tang Dynasty underground palace of Famen Temple in Shaanxi Province.
At that time, it was also called golden embroidery or golden embroidery. The poet Du Fu once said in a poem: "The embroidered clothes shine in the late spring, and the golden peacocks and silver unicorns shine". Wen Tingyun also once recited: "The phoenixes are facing each other with golden strands, and the peonies are passing through the night.
"Rain". In 743 AD, Monk Jianzhen traveled east to Japan and brought the Thousand-Armed Buddha embroidered with gold and silver from Asoka Temple in Yongcheng, which is still regarded as a national treasure by Japan.
Xiao Luoyan is articulate and has a pleasant voice. She talks about these allusions with great familiarity. She majored in archeology and is very familiar with these historical anecdotes and local famous products. She speaks naturally and eloquently.
Li Huqiu squatted in front of a special stall and gently picked up the only item for sale, a piece of gold and silver embroidery inlaid in purple-red wood, and looked at it carefully. Xiao Luoyan watched with interest beside him. The stall owner was a middle-aged Taoist priest.
With an elegant and handsome appearance, he introduced to Li Huqiu: "Absolutely old objects, with silver thread as the base and gold thread as the work. The golden carp leaps over the dragon gate, the frame of small leaf sandalwood, and the fabric of Hexingtang. Look, there is a
The money belongs to the Yao family in Jiangnan. In the past, female workers had no status and were not allowed to leave money for the things they woven and embroidered. Only famous craftsmen were qualified to leave their husband's surname."
The composition of this brocade is unique. The golden carp in the picture are woven with gold threads, and the techniques are exquisite and exquisite. From the embroidery to the frame, everything is full of grandeur and ingenuity. Xiao Luoyan was delighted to see it, and he would not let go after taking it in his hand.
: "Smelly boy, ever since I found out that you are the boss of Duobao Building, I have never fought against a rich man or divided the land. We have been together for such a long time, and you have never offered me anything. I really like this brocade.
, that’s it!”
Li Huqiu smiled and nodded and said: "As long as you like it." He asked the priest again: "How much does this thing cost?" The Taoist priest was happy and twisted his beard and said: "If you sell the goods to those who are destined, you will not take a penny!" Li Huqiu couldn't help hearing this.
Stunned. The Taoist priest continued: "With so many people selling colorful embroidery, you came to my stall, which shows that we are destined. This brocade was woven by Yao Chen in the Southern Song Dynasty. It was inlaid on the high mantle of the woodcraft master He Xingtang in the early Qing Dynasty.
Although they are hundreds of years apart, they have collaborated closely on this work, bringing it to the pinnacle of embroidery art. If one were to measure its value solely in terms of money, if it were sent to Fude Hall, it could be sold for at least ten dollars.
Ten thousand yuan.”
Xiao Luoyan couldn't help but spit out her sweet tongue after hearing this, and made an exaggerated face playfully, saying: "What is it, so expensive? No need." After saying that, he stood up and wanted to leave. However, Li Huqiu smiled and did not move, "
Fool, didn’t you hear the Taoist priest say that we are destined for each other? He gave it to us without taking any money even if we couldn’t guarantee it. Don’t you want to apply for a job at Fude Hall? This thing is the best stepping stone.” After hearing this, the Taoist priest twisted his beard.
He smiled and said: "My little brother is indeed a wonderful person. If I guess correctly, your surname is Li?"
Li Huqiu was still smiling and calm, but he pulled Xiao Luoyan behind him. This Taoist priest had very bright eyes. Although he could not see the momentum or intention, nor did he seem to have any kung fu, Li Huqiu was inexplicably
This made the person think of Master Dong. "Taoist Priest is indeed an expert outside the country. He can pinch and count. What else have you guessed?" The Taoist replied: "I also guessed that you are looking for someone, a little girl.
Wearing an orchid-colored dress, with long hair, big eyes, and two small dimples when she smiles, it's a pity that she hasn't smiled for a long time." Li Huqiu realized that he had a different feeling. He suddenly realized that he looked back and followed the Taoist priest's eyes, and he felt like he was struck by lightning.
like a statue.
In front of him was Yan Mingqian, who was holding the little swallow who was tired from walking, walking towards this side step by step. The Taoist priest behind him had an erratic voice: "Li Huqiu, if you follow the Tao, good deeds will be rewarded. Jinchuan was once very kind to Jingci Zhai."
, he asked us to arrange for your father and daughter to reunite before he died, and today he finally lived up to his old friend's trust."
Li Huqiu's heart suddenly brightened, and he suddenly remembered the sentence, don't be anxious when the swallow returns to its nest. It turned out that Master Jin had already made arrangements to help him find the little swallow. He turned around suddenly and looked back, but the Taoist priest had disappeared. He couldn't help but think, come here
Before that, Xiao Luoyan received an invitation letter, Zhang Luo came to the south, and a nun in the hotel instructed them to attend the temple fair. It seemed that there was a pair of invisible hands pushing them to come here.
Yan also had a strange encounter outside the mountain gate before Ming Dynasty. A Taoist nun stopped her and said she was destined to them. She also said that on behalf of Master Xiaoxian, she wanted to thank the Yan family sisters for the thousands of out-of-school children in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, and specially sent them a family reunion.
In this way, Yan Mingqian held the little swallow and came to Li Huqiu in a daze.
Xiao Yanzi, who had not seen a smile for half a year, suddenly burst into a bright spring smile when he saw Li Huqiu. He struggled hard in Yan Mingqian's arms. Yan Mingqian was startled by Xiao Yanzi's smile, and then he
He noticed that the young man in front of him was the one he had met once in Harbin, and knowing something was wrong, he quickly put Xiao Yanzi down. Xiao Yanzi immediately opened his arms and ran towards Li Huqiu. As he ran, he shouted: Godfather! Come closer.
At that moment, she tightly hugged the neck of Li Huqiu who was squatting on the ground waiting for her, "Don't leave me behind. I will be good and never run around again, wuwuwu."
Xiao Luoyan and Yan Mingqian looked at each other, and the latter walked forward without saying a word.
"Godfather didn't abandon you, and little Yanzi didn't misbehave. It was bad guys who wanted to kidnap you, so the two of us separated." Before Li Huqiu could finish his words, Yan Mingqian, who was already a little guilty, became annoyed.
He shouted: "Hey, your name is Li Huqiu, what are you talking about? Who wants to abduct Little Yanzi?" The bad guys Li Huqiu mentioned actually refer to several of Song San's subordinates. Yan Mingqian obviously misunderstood.
Li Huqiu picked up Little Yanzi and looked at her carefully while coaxing her. It was not difficult to find that the little girl was very well cared for. He was slightly touched. In the past few days when Little Yanzi was missing, he was secretly worried all the time. The more he could not find her, the more he could not find her.
, the hope becomes slim. He always thinks that she will have the same fate as Sister Yanzi. Now that he sees that she is safe and sound, Li Huqiu is only grateful to the people who took care of her. How can he care about Yan Ming's previous angry words. He hurriedly said with a smile: "
If I remember correctly, you are the second girl of Fude Hall? Yan Mingqian snorted. Li Huqiu continued: You misunderstood. To be honest with you, Xiao Yanzi disappeared that day because someone wanted to use her to blackmail me.
, so they wanted to kidnap her, but the group failed, and Xiao Yanzi got lost. I guess you were kind enough to take her in. I was a little excited just now, and my words were incoherent. The bad guy was talking about those people who wanted to kidnap Xiao Yanzi.
, I definitely didn’t mean what you meant. You have taken care of the child for such a long time. I am grateful to you before it is too late."
Little Yanzi hugged Li Huqiu's neck tightly and gradually stopped crying. She lay on Li Huqiu and murmured: I will be good in the future. Don't leave me again. I will be good and repeat these two sentences.
Li Huqiu felt heartbroken when he heard this. Yan Mingqian looked at this strange father and daughter angrily, and suddenly hated her previous recklessness and arbitraryness. She originally thought that children would be very forgetful, and she would naturally recognize whoever treats her well.
, but now she understands that some things are constantly being given up. She suddenly thought of her eldest sister far away in Harbin. If someone else treats her better, will she forget her? The answer is of course no. Ah!
By the way, the eldest sister is looking for this Li Huqiu! She suddenly woke up and said hurriedly: "Li Huqiu, if you really want to thank me, just come home with me to meet someone!"
ps: I moved to a new unit and started working on the well today. I started sorting out the manuscript yesterday afternoon, and the unit organized pre-construction training in the evening. I got up at 3:30 this morning to write, but I still couldn’t finish the evening chapters. I’ll just treat Qinglian as a day treat to everyone.
False. There is only one update today.
