Siheyuan: The Cellar

Chapter 210 Year 3, Writing Couplets

After hearing Yan Bugui's proposal, everyone nodded.

Most people don't have a good life at home, if it weren't for the fact that Qin Huairu was having a difficult time with her baby, who would be willing to help her?

Suddenly, the yard became like a vegetable market and everyone started talking.

"That's right! I think Teacher Yan is right!

If you said that the Jia family really had no money, we would just give them some help. But you told me that her family had more than 10 million in savings.

I have never seen so much money in my life! Does she still need us to help her?"

"That's right. Besides, if Xiao Chen hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that the Jia family also has a sewing machine! Who of us has this thing?

If you really run out of money, don’t you know how to sell your sewing machine? Do you have to wait for help?"

"What are you thinking? They are supported by a bunch of sympathetic fools like us. Why should they use their own money to sell their own big items?"

"Then what can we do? After all, he has someone above him. Can you bite him if you don't like him?"

Qin Huairu, Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai were all embarrassed by the strange and weird voices of the people in the courtyard.

Among them, Yi Zhonghai was the most helpless, as it was clearly not him who initiated the donation.

As a result, he was scolded every time.

Liu Haizhong listened to everyone's complaints and knew that he had gotten into trouble this time.

I could only quickly change the subject.

"Alright, alright. Since everyone thinks this matter is inappropriate, let's just leave it as it is!"

After saying that, Liu Haizhong grabbed his wife and ran away.

As for the deal with Qin Huairu? Didn't I help her? Who can she blame if she messed up?

The large donation conference ended hastily amid the complaints of everyone in the courtyard.

Qin Huairu not only failed to achieve his original goal, but also received a lot of bad feelings.

In a blink of an eye, New Year’s Eve is here.

These past few days, Chen Guoliang could clearly feel that the people in the courtyard were looking at Qin Huairu with some strange eyes.

It feels like a wolf that has been hungry for more than ten days looking at meat.

I wanted to go up and tear Qin Huairu apart.

Chen Guoliang understood after thinking about it for a moment.

Just look at the morals of these people in the courtyard. Knowing that Qin Huairu's family has so much money, and still calculating the few money they have.

It would be strange if he didn't turn around and think about Qin Huairu's money.

Chen Guoliang even discovered that since the last meeting, many people in the hospital would go up to Qin Huairu and ask if he needed help when they saw him doing something.

On the surface, it looks quite harmonious.

If you don't add, after asking if you need help, how much does it cost, I will do it for you.

Even better.

After getting up early in the morning, Chen Guoliang washed his face and began to stroll around the yard.

This is his first year since he came to this era.

I have to say, the festive atmosphere is really strong.

Compared with later generations, it is completely a different concept.

Walk all the way to the front yard.

After crossing the hanging flower gate, Chen Guoliang saw that Yan Bugui had placed a table in the middle of the yard, with pens, ink, paper and inkstones, all available.

There is no doubt that Teacher Yan wants to make money by writing couplets.

According to past practice, Yan Bugui would indeed set up a stall to write couplets on New Year's Day.

As for doing business or something like that, that’s definitely not something that can be discussed.

But if you grab a handful of melon seeds or a handful of candy as a reward for writing, that's also reasonable!

After all, Old Yan not only contributed the ink, but also put in the effort, right?

But if you don't even bring any paper, he has some.

But at this time, we can no longer say that a handful of melon seeds can solve the problem.

As soon as he saw Chen Guoliang strolling out, Yan Bugui hurriedly greeted him: "Hey, Xiao Chen! Good morning! Have you eaten?"

"No! Teacher Yan, are you going to open the door to do business and write couplets for people?"

Seeing that Yan Bugui was so enthusiastic today, Chen Guoliang decided to tease him.

As expected, Yan Bugui got furious when he heard Chen Guoliang say that he was doing business.

At this moment, the private sector is being transformed into a state-owned enterprise. At this juncture, who dares to say that they are doing business?

"Xiao Chen, you can eat whatever you want, but don't say anything nonsense!

I am a law-abiding citizen, why would I start a business? I just thought that we are all neighbors. We need couplets anyway, and as the liaison officer of the hospital, I will definitely provide some convenience to everyone within my ability, right? "

"Really?"

Chen Guoliang pretended to be surprised and expressed his disbelief. At the same time, he kept moving and soon walked in front of Yan Bugui and grabbed the melon seeds on the plate in front of him.

"If it's a favor, then what's going on?"

Chen Guoliang grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started eating them.

Chen Guoliang grabbed a handful of peanuts, which made Yan Bugui very distressed. Is it easy to earn some melon seeds and peanuts by yourself?

But now it is difficult for him to say anything wrong about Chen Guoliang. After all, he knows very well that Chen Guoliang is best at exaggerating things.

If Chen Guoliang really accuses him of doing business privately, he would have no chance of survival.

At that moment, he could only endure the headache and explain: "You can't talk nonsense! These are all the writing fees given by everyone.

After all, my ink and paper cost money, and no one wants to see me suffer for nothing.

Because, when I came, they gave me some sunflower seeds and peanuts, so that shouldn’t be against the law, right? "

Chen Guoliang nodded. There was really nothing much to say about Yan Bugui's matter.

The main thing is that he charges a fair price.

For those who bring their own paper, you can just give them a handful of sunflower seeds or a hundred or two hundred yuan.

No paper. 400 yuan.

And what about the couplets outside? Starting from 500.

It is written in such a flamboyant style that if you don't guess, you have no idea what it is about.

Seeing Yan Bugui looking at him eating melon seeds with a painful expression, Chen Guoliang said with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Yan, I won't eat your food for nothing. You also need to make me two paintings."

After hearing what Chen Guoliang said, Yan Bugui immediately became energetic.

No paper. Two pieces!

This is big business!

Then, Yan Bugui picked up the brush, spread out the paper and started to work.

I have to say that although Yan Bugui's calligraphy is not as artistic as the calligraphy sold outside, every stroke is straight and level. Anyone who can read can understand it.

And what is art? Art is anything that you cannot understand.

Seeing that Yan Bugui had been writing for a long time, Chen Guoliang also felt a little itchy.

After all, he himself had practiced calligraphy.

Then, after Yan Bugui finished writing a piece, he asked Yan Bugui to stop.

Then you have to do it yourself.

Hearing this, Yan Bugui subconsciously wanted to say something yin and yang.

But when he thought of the unreasonableness of Chen Guoliang, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

'Self-reliance to create great achievements'

'Hard work leads to great ambitions'

After writing the couplet, Yan Bugui became so depressed that he became autistic.

Look at what Chen Guoliang wrote, and then look at what you wrote.

Phew, not artistic at all.

After finishing writing, Chen Guoliang nodded with satisfaction.

Ah! Art is elegant, so elegant.

If I didn't know what it was written, I probably wouldn't recognize it.

But none of this matters, as long as it looks good and graceful.
