Touch

Chapter 10

The old man has a light taste. Although he has experienced ups and downs and experienced all kinds of hardships when he was down and down, but now he is old and recuperating. The meals on the table are not luxurious and prosperous, but they are fine and reasonable.

There were not many dishes, and the uncle was very imposing, so it was impossible for him to exchange wine and wine at the dinner table. Xu Tang occasionally whispered something to Li Yanchang. He had friendship with the elders of Li Yanchang's family, so it was neither hidden nor necessary.

When he was almost finished eating, the servant brought tea soup to rinse his mouth. Xu Tang was used to staying abroad and couldn't drink clear soup. He held his milk tea with thick milk foam and sugar, and looked at Xu Zhen with a smile.

"Niece Xian, you look good recently."

I have been busy for a month, working more than 90 hours a week, which is not comparable to Xiao Yixuan's dying sorrow, but it is really nothing to say about the vitality.

Xu Zhen didn't answer right away. She was holding the teacup and took a sip from the rim with her head down.

The atmosphere became a little ugly, just like Xu Tang's ugly face, Xu Xu didn't bother to lift his head while blowing the tea foam.

Putting down the teacup, Xu Zhen nodded and said, "Third uncle is concerned, the company has been going well recently."

Xu Tang clearly meant something, and he was talking about Xu Zhen's private affairs, but Xu Zhen's demeanor was calm, and he didn't have the slightest ostentation to hang others on the flag of shame.

Xu Tang pointed to Xu Zhen and smiled at the uncle: "Look, you can't make any jokes."

Uncle: "You are neither old nor young."

"Okay, okay, it's all my fault. It's not that I care about our niece, and it's rare to see each other. If you want me to say, it's Yanchang's ability. I used to invite Ah Zhen to drink tea. When did I ask you to move?"

Li Yanchang quickly put down his teacup, "What's the matter, Ah Zhen respects you very much."

This sentence was too explicit, Li Yanchang himself blushed a little after he finished speaking, took out a suet jade button from the inner pocket of his jacket, handed it to the uncle respectfully, and said: "I heard from Xu Zhen that you are a jade expert, this jade button is just a coincidence Got it, I don't quite understand this, today I borrow flowers to offer Buddha, don't be disgusted, sir."

"Yo, good stuff."

Xu Tang spoke from the side, his eyes shining brightly.

Not to mention the craftsmanship of the jade buckle, this piece of suet jade is watery, oily, white as cut fat, and smooth as curdled fat. No one here is weak-sighted. Without fluorescent lamps and magnifying glasses, you can see the color of this suet white jade. The material is good, and it should be old.

Just looking at Li Yanchang's actions of putting the jade buckle in his pocket and taking it out, he really doesn't know how to do it.

Li Yanchang maintained the posture of standing up and bending over to hand it to the uncle. The jade buckle in his hand attracted all eyes. With a light hand, the servants of the manor who were waiting for tea put the jade on a plate with a brocade cloth and placed it in front of the uncle.

The uncle took a few glances, nodded, and waved his hands to let the servants step aside, "You have a heart."

Xu Tang beckoned someone to come over, "Show me."

Li Yanchang smiled and said: "It would be great if the uncle likes it. I'm afraid that the delivery will not be good on the way here, and I will make the uncle laugh."

"Well, the younger generation understands etiquette, so I can't let you suffer."

"Where is the uncle?"

The uncle nodded, pondered for a while, and said to the side: "Wrap up my ink pendant and put it in Yanchang's car."

Xu Tang's eyes lit up, and he raised his head and said to Li Yanchang who was about to refuse, "Thank you, sir, that's your treasure." Seeing that Li Yanchang didn't understand, Xu Tang simply picked it up and said, "You kid, see you, sir. You won't turn your head around, will you, uncle's treasures are never given to outsiders."

Li Yanchang understood, he was overjoyed, he thanked repeatedly, saying that he would treasure it, and when he spoke, his eyes fell on Xu Zhen, looking affectionate.

Xu Zhen drank tea leisurely, as if it had nothing to do with her.

Xu Xu was in a good mood. He chatted with Xu Zhen just now when he was drinking tea, and now he said to Li Yanchang with a smile on his face: "After eating the meal from the uncle and receiving the pendant from the uncle, if there is any You made a mistake, and no one can save you."

Li Yanchang nodded without mentioning it.

After tea and dinner, Xu Tang took Li Yanchang to the backyard for a horse race to eat. The manor was cold, Xu Xu couldn't bear it, and he couldn't live here either. After eating, he drove back to his gentle hometown to enjoy. The Xu family seemed to like the suet jade buckle very much. After taking it to the study room, I caressed it under the soft light of the fluorescent lamp. Xu Zhen stayed by the side, silently watching.

The company is very busy, and the manor is leisurely and old-fashioned. No matter what kind of environment, Xu Zhen is always the same.

The uncle looked at it for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Jade nourishes people, and people nourish jade. I don't know whose family has carefully raised good things for so many years, but they are ruined by people who don't know the goods."

Xu Zhen smiled: "It's not a waste to send it to grandpa."

"Don't play such lip service on me." The uncle glanced at Xu Zhen, and put the jade into the incubator, "Let's put it aside for now, and I'll find someone to take care of it tomorrow. It would be a pity if it fails."

The uncle tucked his hands into his sleeves, and sat leisurely on the soft chair in the study with the sleeves covered. When the two sleeves were put together, the dark patterns on the cuffs were perfectly blended together.The neighing of the horse could be heard faintly outside the window. Seeing that sound, the rider was very excited.

But in the study, it was a different scene.

Tear off the shell of gorgeous, affectionate or passionate models, and the inside is a clear and clear calculation.Just like unprocessed financial data, it is messy and cumbersome. People who don't understand it are confused, but those who understand it are clear at a glance.

"Do you know why I want to return Mo Zhuizi?"

"know."

"tell me the story."

"The gift given by a person is heavy, and one must want to return it. Grandpa returned a heavier gift and blocked the mouth of others, although it may not be what others want."

The uncle smiled, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, like a harmless old man, "How do you know it's not what others want?"

There was a hint of sarcasm on Xu Zhen's face, "Everyone has said it, they don't understand this, how many people who borrow flowers to offer Buddha and worship Bodhisattvas don't make wishes."

"Young people nowadays are not interested in worshiping Bodhisattvas."

"I will still worship, but the purpose is more clear. When I enter a temple, I will make a wish."

"How old are you? You're so old-fashioned, you're not ashamed to say that."

"Grandpa taught me well."

The uncle narrowed his eyes, tilted his head back, and sighed, "It seems that you don't like it." There was no sign of happiness or displeasure in his tone.

Xu Zhen didn't sigh. Up until now, judging by her expression, she seemed to be talking about things that had nothing to do with her.

"In business, some people make money and some people lose money. This is a natural thing."

"Teach you to cultivate your body and mind. After so many years of cultivation, I don't think it has changed much." The uncle pointedly said, "Don't trap people too badly, they are all my family."

"Ah Zhen will consider it."

In the end, I was not talking about Li Yanchang. Uncle Xu understood some things, Xu Zhen understood, Xu Xu felt that he half understood, but Xu Tang really didn't understand at all.
