She went in casually and showed him the paper very casually: "Brother Six, what do you think of my handwriting?"
Tao Chengqi has always cared about things like poetry, so he took it and raised his eyebrows: "Yo? Not bad! Tingting is so cool, did you write this?"
She nodded: "Yes!"
"I don't believe it," Tao Chengqi said, "Is this Yan Baiwei just pretending to be yours? Are you trying to trick me? How come I don't know when you practiced calligraphy?"
She said: "Why did I lie to you? I really wrote it, so I asked you to take a look!"
Tao Chengqi glanced at her: "If you really wrote it, it would be really good."
He picked up the pen and circled a few strokes, "Well, this stroke is good, not bad... Jin'er, you are so good at practicing. If you practice for three to five years, no one will be able to tell that you are uneducated and incompetent."
Skill, as long as you use this word, everyone will think you are hiding something, which is very convenient to bluff people."
When Tang Shijin came out, everything became clear.
Yan Baiwei stood under the tree in front of the door and looked at her with a smile. As soon as Tang Shijin saw him, he couldn't help but smile, even Little White Teeth laughed.
She went back with her hands behind her back and wrote another one. She couldn't wait for a moment and ran to ask Xie Huaijin to read it.
Yan Baiwei didn't stop him either.
The door for Xie Huaijin and his wife was closed. When she opened the door, they were startled.
It was a cold day, so Tang Shijin said: "No need to come out, I can just go in by myself!" As he said that, he jumped directly into the wall and said with a smile: "I didn't disturb your rest, did I?"
Xie Huaijin stood by the door holding a candle and said with a smile: "No, we just had dinner and haven't rested yet. But is there anything?"
Tang Shijin said: "There is a small matter."
She followed him into the house and asked him to look at it.
Xie Huaijin was far more serious than Tao Chengqi when it came to learning. He looked at it seriously for a while and said, "You wrote this?"
Tang Shijin was actually a little nervous and nodded.
Xie Huaijin laughed: "Don't be nervous. This font is not bad. I have achieved some success. I was just thinking that the person who taught you is really smart. This font is very clever and adapts to your strengths. I'm afraid it was created specifically for you.
Yes, Mr. Peach Blossom really deserves his reputation."
Tang Shijin said: "My sixth brother didn't teach me, it was Bo Wei who taught me."
Xie Huaijin was slightly surprised, and then nodded: "I didn't expect Brother Yan to hide his secrets, but I am too blind."
He took the candle and looked at it carefully, and then said: "Tang Xiaoniang, you still need to adjust your strength. I won't say more about this. You can just ask him for advice. After practicing for two or three days,
Years ago, no one could see this trick."
He smiled and handed it to her.
Tang Shijin cupped his hands, turned over and jumped out.
Seeing Yan Baiwei standing there waiting for her, she threw herself into his arms and was so happy: "Yan Baiwei!"
He said: "Do you believe me now? My teaching to you is already very strict. How many of the same words can you think are weird?"
She laughed twice: "I believe it~"
She took his hand and went up the mountain.
She found a random place to sit down, looked at the moon, and looked at the writing in her hand. This was the first time that she had been praised for something "serious", and she was really happy.
So she happily announced: "Yan Baiwei, I decided to write twenty pieces every day from now on!"
He said: "What did you call me?"
Boss Tang had no choice but to say with great shame: "Brother Wei~"
He couldn't understand why she liked eyelashes, but he tolerated it.
She also doesn't understand why he likes to be called brother, but she... forget it, isn't it just sweet talk? He calls him little brother every day, just changing the word, it's nothing!
She leaned a little closer to him: "Brother Wei, can you write me a learned copybook tomorrow?"
"Okay," he said, "How knowledgeable do you want to be?"
Tang Shijin thought for a while: "Li Bai or Su Dongpo."
"good."
She said duplicitously, "Although I don't care very much, you know that pretending to be knowledgeable will help me become rich in the world, right? You see, if I become rich without knowledge, I will be scolded."
Profiteer, if I look knowledgeable and rich, then I am a Confucian businessman! Do you understand?"
He nodded, "Understood."
Then he glanced at her: "If you not only look knowledgeable, but are actually knowledgeable, wouldn't it be more powerful and beautiful? So why don't we also write poems and songs..."
She jumped up quickly: "I remembered that I have something else to do and I'll leave first..."
When Yan Baiwei looked up, not even the figure was gone.
On the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, the New Year's gifts went on the road, and on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the New Year's gifts for the three families of the Zheng family were also sent out.
This year Hua Lang returned the gift in a serious manner and bought a lot of various New Year goods, including everything for food and use.
Moreover, they don’t have to go out to buy clothes. They can directly ask a tailor to come and measure them, and they will need new ones from the inside out.
At the sixteenth hour of the twelfth lunar month, He Shiba, now called He Mingbian, rushed to marry a new wife, and the whole family was very happy.
He Yuanxiao came over early the next morning and complained to her: "My mother insisted on asking me to go on a blind date, but all the girls who came were so ugly... Jin'er, why don't you marry me, even though you are fierce?"
It’s a little bit better, at least it looks good!”
Who is he talking about being evil?
Tang Shijin picked up the abacus and beat him out.
Yan Baiwei smiled and said: "What kind of debt are you settling? The debt for sausages and stuff will be settled soon, right?"
"Well," Tang Shijin said: "I'm figuring out what to do next year. At present, there are two gaps that need to be filled. One is meat sausage, which is the peak season in winter, and what should be done in summer. The other is bamboo core tea, which is the peak season in summer and winter.
What kind of tea should we make? Cornus officinalis? Ginger? None of them are suitable. It’s not suitable for making large quantities. How about we build a tea garden?”
"Okay," Yan Baiwei said: "When spring comes, move some tea trees over. Anyway, in your hands, tea with a low quality can turn decay into magic, but the amount of spring tea alone is small, so it should still be
Choose a good variety...one that can produce one or two hundred pounds per acre, otherwise it will take up too much space."
She nodded: "You can make some canned fruits in the summer, but the investment is high and there are a lot of things to change. I have to think about it again."
Yan Baiwei said: "Furthermore, you said we should buy fertile land. We should think of ways to start doing it next year."
She nodded, and he smiled and said: "This year I wish for one million, and next year I want to wish for three million, right?"
Tang Shijin said disdainfully: "Am I such an unmotivated person? When money reaches more than one million, it is just a number. How to make money make money has become secondary, because as long as you don't commit suicide,
Money will generate money on its own...so at this time, how to manage yourself should be put on the agenda."
Yan Baiwei said: "Manage yourself??"
"That's right!" Tang Shijin said: "Now I am just a little village girl from Zhulin Village. When others mention me, oh, Mr. Peach Blossom's adopted sister, the eminent monk of Yuanjue Temple and so on... Who am I? No one knows.
, so my plan for next year is to let people know who I am, at least when they mention it, they will say, I heard that Tang Shijin has some relationship with the Tao family, and so on... It is not necessarily a parallel, but I am among everyone.
I already have an image in my mind, do you understand?"
Yan Baiwei said: "It's difficult."
"I know, Confucianism is the only one! The status of businessmen cannot be compared with that of scholars. Besides, I am still a young woman... But when I said I could earn one million last year, didn't you think I couldn't do it? If the goal is
If you can do it easily, isn’t that just fooling yourself?”
