The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 226
A good piece of Hui ink can be worth hundreds of taels.

Ordinary.

An ink ingot is also several silver dollars.

It is simply not affordable for ordinary people.

Even though Hua Xiling knew how to grind ink, but she had never touched high-quality Hui ink, the ink produced by grinding ink would inevitably be of inferior quality.

Of course, most people can't see the difference.

Bai Gui just found an excuse and dismissed Hua Xiling.

He was silent for a while.

Then pick up the Langhao pen and start writing.

The ink falls off the paper like lacquer, the handwriting is flying, the pen sweeps thousands of troops, and penetrates the back of the paper. It is a famous master's handwriting.

"Watch new plays, watch old plays, watch new plays, watch old plays."

"It's easy to get on stage, and it's easy to get off stage, and it's easy to get on stage and get off stage well."

A pair of couplets was quickly written by Bai Gui.

Two hundred silver dollars... It's not worth his painstaking efforts.

This couplet is enough!
"Good cursive script! Good calligraphy!"

"Mr. Bai's calligraphy is thick and vigorous between the lines, elegant and refined, with a nostalgic aftertaste. The brush is round and powerful, unrestrained and smooth, and has the essence of Yan Lugong's cursive script..."

Boss Liu is knowledgeable.

One can see at a glance that Bai Gui's calligraphy is not shallow.

This is the best calligraphy!
He originally thought that young people would not be able to write any good calligraphy by borrowing Baigui's fame, but he didn't expect that after looking at it, he knew that the calligraphy was extraordinary. It could not be said to be top-notch among literati in the world, but it was also first-rate.

"Boss Liu is being polite."

Bai Gui put the Langhao brush on the pen wash stand, and said with a smile.

"but……"

Boss Liu looked at the written couplets and couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Bai is also considered elegant, well, I don't blame Hua Xiling. Unexpectedly, Mr. Bai not only writes well, but also has good handwriting, and human relations are also sophisticated. "

There are many metaphors in this pair of couplets, but combined with what Hua Xiling did just now, the sentence "Get on stage well, step down well" is not just a warning to Hua Xiling not to take any shortcuts, but it is also telling Boss Liu that Hua Xiling should not take any shortcuts. Ling should not be too targeted, so that she can "step down well" and "come on stage well" in the future.

"The insight of the world is knowledge, and the practice of human feelings is the article."

Bai Gui said.

"This is two hundred silver dollars for Mr. Bai's touch-up fee."

"Please accept it, Mr. Bai."

Boss Liu clapped his hands, and a servant came out with a tray, two cylinders of silver dollars wrapped in greased paper.

"Then I'll be disrespectful."

Bai Gui accepted it generously.

Make money, don't be fooled!
"In addition, Hua Xiling ran into Mr. Bai just now. As the owner of the tea garden, I have to apologize."

Boss Liu said.

If it weren't for Bai Gui's couplet just now, he would never have mentioned it. Everyone knows it well, and it has passed in secret, but now that he has just mentioned the metaphor, it is not easy to expose it.

"This is a new high-quality tea from the tea garden. I will give it to Mr. Bai as an apology."

Boss Liu took out a package of exquisite tea cans from the study and handed it to Bai Gui.

You can't use silver dollars for this apology. It seems that he is a philistine, and he has to compare every penny, so it is more appropriate to give some other things.

"Boss Liu has such sincerity, so I will accept it. I have made Boss Liu a friend."

Bai Gui glanced at the wooden box, it was a Dahongpao, probably high-quality, and the price was not cheap, so he knew it, so he said.

The so-called making friends is just meeting friends, it does not mean that there is much friendship...

Boss Liu was very happy, it was a good thing to be able to make friends with noble and famous people, and it would save face if he said it.In addition, perhaps for a person like Bai Gui, this "friendship" is worthless, but often some things are just a matter of one word for a celebrity, and he... has to run away, and he may not be able to handle it well.

Bai Gui chatted with Boss Liu for a few more words and offered to leave.

Boss Liu kept sending Bai Gui and the others to the gate of the tea garden, and then stopped.

After a while.

"Master Liu, what to do with Hua Xiling?"

The shopkeeper of the tea garden asked.

"This time she bumped into Mr. Bai. Fortunately, Mr. Bai spared her once, but... I don't know whether Mr. Bai has taken a fancy to Hua Xiling. Besides, with this calligraphy, I can't make it too obvious. It's too much of a treat."

Boss Liu's face was a little cold, Hua Xiling almost disturbed his good business, which made him feel uncomfortable, although in the end, he was lucky enough to turn the corner and get in touch with him, but this is his ability, all-round ability, what is it about Hua Xiling thing.

"Let's raise her first. Wait a few days to see if Mr. Bai sends a letter to ask for her. If you don't want her, you don't have to treat her harshly, just treat her normally."

He said lightly.

"By the way, Master Liu, there is also Guanjiaban..."

The shopkeeper continues to ask for advice.

……

Afternoon, White House.

study.

Bai Gui is writing a letter.

He planned to return to Qin Province recently, so he had to write a letter to his family in advance to inform him of his return.

Delivery is much faster than his return home.

Because he not only returned to Qin Province alone, but also brought a lot of gifts. These are the wishes of the White House and cannot be discarded. Moreover, there is no train from Yanjing to Qin Province. It is possible to go home alone, but it is inevitable. too tired.

dong dong.

knocking.

"Please come in."

Bai Gui frowned and put down his brush.

"Boss, Mrs. Leng from the cold house next door wants to thank you. See... do you see me or not?"

Lao Li opened the door and asked in a low voice at the door.

"Mrs. Leng? How can I thank you?"

Bai Gui was a little confused, he and Mrs. Leng had never dealt with each other before. After meeting Leng Qingqiu last time, he deliberately avoided them and never had the chance to meet him. As for Mrs. Leng, he had never met.

"Boss, it's like this. Didn't you say last time that you should try your best to help me figure out what's going on with my neighbors."

"The roe deer meat you hunted last time, and some other things, can't be used up. I'm afraid it will be wasted, so I distributed some to Leng Zhai and the neighbors around. No, Mrs. Leng came to thank you..."

"Mrs. Leng is kind."

Old Li said helplessly.

"So it is."

Bai Gui nodded.

This is very common in big families.For example, some rich families will regularly give out porridge, and some beggars who have received favors will choose to repay the rich family, but for the rich family, they don't remember this at all...

As for the roe deer meat he hunted, it was also prey that he went to the western suburbs to hunt with some young masters from the Jin Mansion.

"Mrs. Leng came over to thank you. I'll go see you later."

Bai Gui got up and said.

Mrs. Leng came to the door to thank him personally, and he was a little unreasonable and unreliable for letting Lao Li refuse.Don't look at his fame, but in the neighborhood, get along with each other on an equal footing.

Walking into the living room, there was a middle-aged woman sitting in it. She looked old and outdated, but no matter how she sat or behaved, she was well-behaved, and she looked like a scholarly family.

"Mrs. Leng, be a little careful, and please come here yourself. It's my fault as a junior."

Bai Gui came over and apologized.

Respecting the old and loving the young, ordering the elders and the young, the elders in the Han Dynasty could even "walk by the sidewalk" and not kneel when they saw the emperor, and their status was very high.

At this time also.

So he is young, he has to abide by etiquette all the time.

This is different from treating Lao Li. He is an employer, while Lao Li is a servant, so their identities are different. Of course, in daily life, Bai Gui also takes good care of Lao Li.

　Today... Well, unexpectedly, the code word is slow, and the [-]-character update has not been completed. I will make it up in the early morning. You can just read it in the morning, and you don’t have to wait.Thank you!
