Patriarch enjoys meal

"Good morning, how is your e-sports night?" Zhou Weiran greeted Huang Jin who just woke up and missed breakfast.

Huang Jin remembered the ten consecutive kneelings last night and gritted his teeth silently: "You said at that time that I should not go in the middle...Is there any scientific basis for this?"

"Of course not." Zhou Jiran glanced at him with a half-smile, "I said it casually, so don't take it seriously."

"Pack it up, let's go." Tao Jiang's backpack was stuffed with the special products of Huang En Village that Mr. Huang gave them. When he came, he was relaxed, but when he left, he had more things.

When the car carrying Zhou Weiran drove far away, Huang Jin didn't even think about it.

"Uncle, did you see the fox last night?"

Speaking of this, Mr. Huang is still a little excited now: "I saw it! He is still a fox! Oh, it's a pity that you didn't go. I'll tell you about that fox balabala..."

Huang Jin: "..."

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, you can't become a master!Uncle, you must have been lied to!

When we got back to Tao's house, most of the ground in the yard had turned into flat and solid bluestone slabs. Several staff members were gathering around the stone sculptures of the four gods and beasts on the screen wall, listening to a middle-aged man with gray hair and elegant temperament Talk, Zhou already looked over, and there was still someone to take notes.

"Xiao Tao is back? The floor has been paved for you, go and see if there is any problem." The leading staff greeted very familiarly, "I brought two students to teach on the spot, and you will let them go later Take a look at your family's ancestral hall, the murals inside are my masterpiece!"

"Mr. Gu, you go directly." Tao Jiang handed over the key to the ancestral hall.

"Okay, then I'll be gone."

Tao Jiang went into the room to put his backpack, and Zhou Jiran followed him step by step: "Is this Mr. Gu the one who repaired the mural in friendship?"

Tao Jiang nodded: "Mr. Gu has always wanted to restore Tao's house as a whole since he took over the renovation of Tao's house more than ten years ago. Unfortunately, the funds are limited, and the murals of the ancestral hall were repaired at his own expense."

"Should there be special restoration funds for this kind of key cultural relics protection site?" Zhou Jiran asked, "Can Tao Zhai apply?"

"Although Teacher Gu has always taken care of me, there are also many cultural relics and historic sites in Xincheng. The largest Qingzhu Academy has been repaired for four years, and it has not been completed until now." Tao Jiang is very calm. But Tao’s house is just a private house after all, it’s neither open nor has commercial value.”

"It's dilapidated, but it's still solid. It's not to the point where it collapses without repairs. I don't know how many years it will take to apply for repair funds."

Zhou Jiran thought about it. It is better not to put more pressure on the government. He looked at Tao Jiang's simple layout and was curious: "How much would it cost to restore the whole house according to Mr. Gu's standards?"

"200."

Zhou was speechless: "So exciting?"

Tao Jiang was also a little helpless: "Just to restore a few sets of rosewood furniture in the late Qing Dynasty, half of them will be removed, not to mention the carved beams and painted buildings in these houses that have not been restored."

"Ask if you don't understand," Zhou Jiran said, "Which is Dalbergia Dalbergia?"

"Hainan yellow rosewood."

Zhou already stood in awe: "I'm sorry, a big family, a real big family."

Tao Jiang sighed and said, "It's just that the family has fallen, and the past cannot be recovered."

Zhou Jiran felt that it was not easy for Tao Jiang, the family's past glory had not been touched at all, and only a dilapidated house was left to him.

Tao Jiang quickly put away the various specialties in the backpack: "Go and see your vegetable field. If there is anything you want to change, you can communicate with Teacher Gu in time."

When he came in just now, he was attracted by Mr. Gu and his team, and he didn't take a good look at the vegetable field that had been designed for a long time. Now that Tao Jiang mentioned it, Zhou Jiran decisively pulled him to inspect the project with great interest.

"..." Tao Jiang stood by the edge of the vegetable field, quite unable to put it into words, "Teacher Gu is really rigorous."

The construction is completely in accordance with the lime sketch drawn by Zhou Weizheng, which is a perfect copy.

Zhou has already walked around the vegetable field very satisfied, and has already squatted aside to place an order for vegetable seeds.

After a while, Mr. Gu came out of the ancestral hall with his two students, and after returning the key to Tao Jiang, he told him some things about preventing rats and ants in the old house.

Zhou already discussed with the store about giving away a lot of cabbage seeds, and it's not over yet.At this moment, we have talked about the daily maintenance of ancient ginkgo trees from insect control, and it seems that it will not be over for a while.

Zhou Weiran stepped forward to talk to the two young men who were holding notebooks beside them.

"Hey, which part are you in charge of repairing?"

"Ah..." The two girls, who seemed to be listening to the teacher's speech seriously, but quietly looked at the handsome guy, were taken aback by this sudden question.Turning around, I saw Zhou Jiran smiling happily with his eyebrows bent, and the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the two of them due to the shock was inexplicably soothed.

The girl with the ponytail whispered: "We can't get started yet, we have to learn more from the teacher first."

Another girl with thick bangs and thick glasses said, "This house is the first historic site we saw to be repaired. The things inside are so beautiful."

The people who live there are also nice.The two girls looked at each other and nodded.

Zhou Jiran naturally couldn't understand the silent communication between the girls: "It's really beautiful to look good, but it's also really expensive. We can't even afford you to fix it."

"These are all antiques," the two girls sighed, "We just saw some 500-year-old memorial tablets in the ancestral hall. It's really amazing."

Zhou Jiran had never gone in before, so he sighed in confusion: "That's pretty amazing..."

"Little Tao, I remember you graduated this year, right? Have you found a job yet?" Mr. Gu had finished talking about the house, and started to care about Tao Jiang's personal problems.

"I found it, I just worked for two days."

"That's good," Teacher Gu asked happily, "What kind of job? Is it a professional match?"

Tao Jiang obviously hesitated, not knowing how to answer.

Zhou Weiran hurried forward and introduced himself: "Mr. Gu, my name is Zhou Weiran, and Tao Jiang is working with me now."

"Hello, hello, I was busy with the students just now, so I didn't have time to say hello." Teacher Gu smiled kindly at Zhou Jiran, "Are you classmates?"

Zhou Jiran thought to himself, the two of them have been in the same school for four years, and they had only heard of their names before but never met their people. Unexpectedly, they got together to work together when it happened. It was also fate.

"Same school but different departments." Zhou Jiran joked, "We can be regarded as inter-professional cooperation."

Teacher Gu was curious: "Then what are you working on together?"

Catching ghosts, removing evil spirits, watching Fengshui... There are many businesses.

Zhou already thought about it, and said, "I am engaged in the research of religious theory and practical operation in our country."

Teacher Gu and two female students:? ? ?

Tao Jiang: ...

Mr. Gu is a teacher after all, he quickly realized, and asked gently: "What religion is it?"

"Taoism... right?" He couldn't tell whose family the things that were forcibly stuffed into his head belonged to.

"Oh..." Teacher Gu suddenly said after thinking for a while, "Then I recommend a good thing for you, a cinnabar liquid pen, a small and portable outdoor character, which is convenient and easy to use!"

The two students looked dumbfounded again.This is their usual strict and conscientious Teacher Gu?Symbol?What character?Is it the symbol they understand?

Not only them, even Tao Jiang was stunned.

After a while, Zhou Jiran tentatively asked: "A fellow?"

Teacher Gu shook his head, and said to his two students, "Go outside and meet other teachers at Zhaobi first, I'll be there in a while."

After his two students reluctantly left, he replied: "Our profession knows something about this, Tao Jiang, you may not know, your grandfather and I are old acquaintances."

He couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy: "Your grandpa always regretted that you didn't have talent in this area. In the end... who would have thought that you would go on this path anyway."

Tao Jiang really didn't know that Teacher Gu and his grandfather were old acquaintances. After a moment of surprise, he asked, "I can't get in touch with my grandfather recently. Teacher Gu, do you know where he is?"

"The last time I contacted him, he said he was looking for something," Mr. Gu said with a smile, "He's in high spirits, and he won't come back if he doesn't find something. Don't worry too much, he's an adult in his [-]s or [-]s." Know how to take care of yourself."

Zhou already felt that there seemed to be a problem with this logic.But when I think of the old man in my family who is also in his seventies and eighties, but runs all over the mountain with a wooden sword on his shoulders every day, I think it's okay.

"Okay, I'm leaving too. What you are doing now is no different than other jobs. Remember to be cautious at all times." Teacher Gu reminded: "Work hard and save money. Your grandfather is unreliable. This Tao house is now in your hands." Under the name, I can only rely on you."

"Renovating an old house is like redecorating it. It's not unreasonable for you to leave half of it here. Okay, I'm leaving, call me if you need anything."

After finishing speaking, he left very neatly without giving Tao Jiang a chance to speak.

Zhou has eaten Teacher Gu's Amway, and ordered a few more cinnabar liquid pens. After putting away the phone, he patted Tao Jiang on the shoulder with a smile: "Come on, young man, you still have to revitalize your family!"

"..." Tao Jiang glanced at him speechlessly, "There is no food in the refrigerator, order takeaway at noon today."

Zhou Jiran nodded obediently: "Okay, I will apply for a spicy pot."

"Ah."

Zhou Jiran and Tao Jiang were discussing making business cards when they received the red envelope from Mr. Huang. Although they couldn't make a big deal of it, they both felt that it was more or less professional.

"The [-] yuan has arrived!" Zhou Jiran said happily, "At the end of the month, we will share the wages uniformly!"

"Well," Tao Jiang buried himself in the design of the business card, "Wouldn't it be fine to use ordinary black letters on a white background?"

Zhou Jiran thought for a while and said: "It's better to be concise, it looks like we are cold and professional! I'll find a better shop and let it make this business card more textured."

"At that time, the number of business cards could be limited, and the business card was a stepping stone. We could get a discount for the jobs we received with the business card! Hahahahahahahaha."

"That's not your business card," Tao Jiang corrected, "it's a membership card."

Zhou Jiran waved his hand and didn't care: "The combination of business card and membership card is wonderful!"

Tao Jiang was overwhelmed by his whimsy and stopped talking.

Seeing that he was almost finished designing, Zhou already felt itchy: "As a member of our studio, I also want to participate in the design!"

Tao Jiang glanced at the vegetable field outside the window with a hesitant expression.

"What's wrong? The vegetable plot I designed has no artistic sense?"

"...you draw it."
