The Sweetness of the Seventies

944

Qi Zhengmin brought Tang Qian in.

Qi Shuliang looked Tang Qian up and down, he looked dignified and his appearance was passable.

His eyes are clear, his mind is quite pure, and he is a good person.

Qi Shuliang was ready to have a good chat with Tang Qian to see how he was doing.

Seeing his mother, Qi Zhengmin's face felt slightly hot, but he still introduced her to everyone generously.

"Tang Qian, this is my dad and mom; mom and dad, this is Tang Qian, the general agent of our Fuxi Automobile Factory in Yanjing." Qi Zhengmin introduced, and they seemed to know each other.

Tang Qian smiled, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Uncle Qi. I have long admired your name."

Tang Qian directly called Uncle Qi Shuliang instead of Mr. Qi.

Tang Qian's emotional intelligence can be seen from a simple address. He came to see Qi Shuliang as a junior, not as the general agent of Fuxi Automobile in Yanjing. "

Qi Shuliang smiled, nodded and said, "Mr. Tang is also young and promising."

Tang Qian said modestly: "I am the fourth child in my family. Mr. Qi can just call me Tang Qian, or Xiaosi. I really don't dare to call me Mr. Tang."

"Then I'll call you Tang Qian." Qi Shuliang said with a smile. As for calling him Xiaosi, it's too intimate. It's not the first time.

"Thank you, Uncle Qi." Tang Qian smiled and said, "Aunt Anne, these are my fresh lilies. I hope you like them."

Annie glanced at her daughter and guessed that her daughter must have told Tang Qian this.

"Thank you, it's very beautiful, I like it very much." Annie smiled, took the flower and handed it to the maid, asking her to put it in the vase.

"You're welcome, as long as you like it." Tang Qian said modestly, and then took out a wooden box from the box next to him, "Uncle Qi, I don't have anything good when I come here for the first time. I just heard from Zhengmin that you like calligraphy. , so I brought you a good inkstone and ink from China, I hope you like it.”

When Qi Shuliang heard this, he felt a little mixed, but he also wanted to see what Tang Qian had given him.

"Thank you." Qi Shuliang smiled and then asked, "I like calligraphy very much. I want to open it now and have a look. Is that okay?"

"Okay, it was originally given to Uncle Qi, so it belongs to Uncle Qi." Tang Qian said with a smile, hoping that Qi Shuliang would like it.

He spent a lot of money to buy this in China.

Although it is not an antique, it is very good because of its pure handcraftsmanship.

"Oh my, this is the best Tao inkstone!" Qi Shuliang liked it very much after seeing it, and he couldn't put it down.

If Tang Qian wasn't still around, Qi Shuliang would have played with it carefully.

"Dad, what is Tao Inkstone?" Qi Zhengmin asked with a smile. Tang Qian was very attentive. He actually gave this gift, which really touched his father's heart.

She and her brother gave some inkstones to her father. He liked them very much, but he never reacted as much as he did when he saw this piece of Tao inkstone.

Everyone looked at Qi Shuliang.

Qi Shuliang smiled and said: "Tao Inkstone is also called Taohe Inkstone. Its material is taken from the deep water of the Tao River in Zhuoni, Gansu Province (Taozhou in the Tang Dynasty). Tao Inkstone is known for its fine stone quality, silky texture and beautiful complexion. The ink is fine and fast, and the pen is warm and sharp. It is the most valuable in the north and has been rare since the Song Dynasty. Since it became famous in the Tang Dynasty, Laokeng Tao inkstone has been owned by royal writers and wealthy businessmen. I used to have one, but I dropped it on the road. It’s broken, I’ve always regretted it. I didn’t expect there to be such an inkstone now.”

Tang Qian smiled and said: "After liberation, Tao inkstones began to be produced again. The production is very small and it is rare in the market."

"Okay, good stuff." Qi Shuliang smiled, "I like it very much, thank you for the gift."

"As long as Uncle Qi likes it." Tang Qian said with a smile. He gave the gift well, and now the atmosphere is lively, leaving a good impression.

It's all worth it.

In fact, Tang Qian didn't buy it outside at all, but took it from his father's study.

Originally, Mr. Tang was not happy, so he gave away such a good thing, causing Mr. Tang to scold Tang Qian for being an unfilial son.

Tang Qian just said, do you want an inkstone or a daughter-in-law.

Mr. Tang has been waiting for a long time to hold his grandson.

Although the inkstone is good, it cannot produce small inkstones.

Comparing the two, Mr. Tang reluctantly gave up and let Tang Qian take the inkstone.

"You're interested." Qi Shuliang said with a smile, "The scenery outside is just right. Come on, I'll take you for a walk in the garden behind."

"I'm very happy." Tang Qian said politely.

"Annie, you and Zhengmin go prepare lunch and treat Tang Qian well." Qi Shuliang said, the first impression was good, and his daughter could get along with this person.

"Okay, dear." Annie smiled and watched her husband and Qi Shuliang leave.

When no one was in sight, Annie chuckled and said, "Zhengmin, that's a nice young man. I have a good impression of him, and your father also likes him very much."

"Is it just because Tang Qian gave me an inkstone that suits my father's needs?" Qi Zhengmin wrinkled his nose. With the inkstone, he could say anything.

Anne shrugged. She didn't understand why there were so many inkstones in her husband's study. They were all the same to her.

"Your father likes inkstones, but he also likes his daughter." Annie smiled, "Your father will not give away his daughter just because of an inkstone, just because the person who gave it away is pretty good."

"Haha, I accept mom's explanation." Qi Zhengmin smiled and said, "Mom, what are you preparing for lunch?"

"It's all what you like to eat." Annie smiled, "By the way, what does Tang Qian like to eat?"

"Ah?" Qi Zhengmin really didn't understand. Thinking about what she liked to eat when she was in Yanjing before, Tang Qian would not refuse, "He seems to like everything I like to eat."

Annie shook her head and said: "Zhengmin, if you like him, then you have to get to know her well. Love is mutual, you can't just enjoy other people's contributions without giving your own feelings. Such unequal love is not You will be happy, but it won’t last long.”

Qi Zhengmin hugged her mother and said, "Thank you, mother, I understand."

"Mom's Zhengmin will definitely be able to handle her emotional problems when she grows up." Annie smiled, "But if you encounter problems, tell your mother that she is someone who has been through it and can give you advice."

"Thank you, Mom, I took note of it." Qi Zhengmin smiled, and she readily accepted her family's concern.

The mother and daughter went to the kitchen together and watched the maid cook in person.

As for Qi Shuliang, he took Tang Qian to the manor behind the house. There was a large green lawn and rows of peach trees that were already in bloom. There were many grasses growing on the bluestone roadside.

"Tang Qian, are you pursuing Zhengmin?" Qi Shuliang asked directly, without beating around the bush.

Qi Shuliang must look at those who pursue his daughter differently and use his experience to observe Tang Qian in front of him to see if he is qualified to be his daughter's lover or even her husband!
