Chapter 321 I am hot and cold
The older generation of characters practiced calligraphy and advocated calligraphy. Song Qiaosheng's study also had all the paper, pen, ink and inkstone.
Chen Huaipu paper and dipped it ink. Looking out the window, his sister-in-law stood in the yard and called, perhaps asking why Liu Xuemei and Cheng Yi were not here yet.
Chen Huai was not very likely to recite many poems and essays. The poems and essays he wrote were too short. If Cheng Yi had not come yet, wouldn’t everyone feel embarrassed? He had never practiced cursive script much, but he was writing running script fast, and only writing official script could delay time.
Chen Huai first silenced Cao cāo's "Short Songs" in his heart before he wrote it on paper; the old man, Cheng Wenguang, Song Qiaosheng, Song Jian, Song Hongjun, Tang Jianmin, Song Hongqi and others stood by and watched him write.
Chapter 321: I, you, you, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, calmly, as if I want to incorporate all my thoughts into the words.
Others can appreciate the fun of calligraphy, and they can read it with relish, but they don’t feel it slow:
"Wine and sing, how much life is; it is like morning dew, the past is full of suffering; it is lamented with generosity, and the worries are unforgettable; how to relieve worries is only Du Kang; the green collar of my heart is lingering; but for the sake of yours, I have pondered until now; the deer sings, eating duckweed in the wild; I have guests, playing zither and sings..."
When Chen Huai wrote "It's as bright as the moon", he felt that the light in front of him was a little dim. When he looked up, he saw Cheng Yi almost pushed her mother before he was willing to walk into the study.
Chen Huai smiled slightly at Liu Xuemei whom he met at the Cui family yesterday and said hello: "Aunt Liu, are you here?"
But when he saw Cheng Yi's pretty face like frost, Chen Huai just thought it was her first time meeting and greeted him actively, "You are Cheng Yi, I am Chen Huai..." He saw that Cheng Yi's eyes were not as shocked as he imagined, and knew that Xiao Wu should have told her about his identity.
Xie Zhi also walked into the study from behind Liu Xuemei and glanced at Chen Huai holding a pen in his hand. He realized that a group of men were huddling in the study, not only chatting, but also watching Chen Huai perform calligraphy. She didn't know that Chen Huai had good writing before, but looking at Chapter 321 on Xuan paper, I'm cold and I'm hot, several lines of official script are simple and clumsy, with the pen tip straight through the back of the paper, and I was secretly shocked: When could this ignorant guy write such good writing?
"Don't forget the serious business when you see a beautiful woman. It's yours that you can't run away; we're all hungry, just waiting for you to finish writing the words and have dinner." Song Hongjun urged Chen Huai to finish writing the words quickly.
"Ah, what's next to 'Mingming Ru Yue'? I gave you a big interruption, and I forgot how to write it in my hand?" Chen Huai patted his head, picked up the pen and forgot the word, and asked Song Hongjun what to write next.
"Old man, Uncle Cheng, my dad and others are staring at you. You can even rely on me for your head. That's really abusing me," Song Hongjun smiled and patted Chen Huai's head, looked at Cheng Yi, and said, "Sister Cheng, you have forgotten Chen Huai's words, but you have to take responsibility for this!"
Cheng Yi felt more and more unhappy when she heard Song Hongjun speak so bluntly, but when Chen Huai looked at her with his eyes closed, she seemed to be trying to compare her. She was not willing to show weakness and said, "The next sentence is 'He Mingkekang', and I won't know what to do if I go on..."
Chen Huai continued to "Who can stop" and quickly finished the whole song "Short Song".
The old man walked to the desk, supported the edge of the table, looked at the entire song "Short Song" carefully for a while, and commented: "The writing behind it is urgent. It seems that Xiaocheng really needs to be responsible..."
The old man said this, everyone laughed loudly, and after Cheng Yi appeared, he hooked Chen Huai's thoughts.
Cheng Yi's face was flushed, and she lowered her head and said nothing. Perhaps in the eyes of others, she would think that she was embarrassed to say to everyone, so she blushed; Chen Huai could accurately know that Cheng Yi was blushing to everyone, but this occasion could not allow her to explain.
Chen Huai followed everyone and smiled foolishly, just thinking that his thoughts really made the old man say a word.
During the meal, everyone forced Chen Huai and Cheng Yi to sit together—
Chen Huai didn't feel anything about Cheng Yi, but he knew in his heart that reality needed him to buy more time and space for Mei Gang to develop, he needed to bow to this political marriage, and he needed to show obedience to the Song family.
Therefore, even if the marriage cannot be concluded in the end, Chen Huai hopes that Cheng Yi will refuse so that the board will not fall on him, and maybe he can get some comfort rewards from the Song family to make up for his "sadness" of his rejection...
He was fake and not crazy all night, and he was quite enthusiastic about Cheng Yi. He talked nonsense with nothing, as if he was completely fascinated by her beauty. He even told several jokes to make her happy.
Cheng Yi couldn't twist her parents, but she ignored Chen Huai. Sometimes she really didn't want to answer Chen Huai's questions, so she tilted her head, stared at his face and blinked, "Yeah", "Ah" and fooled her; she was not interested in Chen Huai's jokes, as if Chen Huai would never be able to scratch her g/point.
Perhaps it is also a privilege for beautiful girls. Cheng Yi's ignorant expression makes people think that she is naive and cute, and does not look particularly cold. She also had a harmonious and lively meal.
After dinner, Cheng Yi made an excuse that she watched TV too late last night and was very tired now and wanted to go back and rest first.
Chen Huai saw the encouragement look of his sister-in-law, and took the initiative to make an appointment with Cheng Yi: "I will go back to Donghua the day after tomorrow; do you have time at noon tomorrow? How about I treat you to dinner?"
Cheng Yi was about to find an excuse to refuse, but she pinched her mother behind her back, and could only say reluctantly: "Then let's talk about it tomorrow..."
Cheng Wenguang's family said goodbye and left, and Chen Huai and Sun Yalin also returned to his sister-in-law's house first.
Along the way, Song Wenhui did not forget to help Chen Huai's date, and said, "Now girls love face and pay attention to the mood. I will call Hongjun later and ask him to lend him his Cadillac to you for one day tomorrow. Also, you can't choose a restaurant tomorrow. It's best to eat Western food, which is convenient and has mood..."
"Mom, you are really stupid! When it comes to dating, you and dad are not enough to tie one hand to deal with it. Chen Huai can still teach him? Your level is not as good as your aunt. At least, my aunt has made several pairs. What achievements can you make?" Song Tong made fun of her mother.
"If Chen Huai and Cheng Yi succeed, that's my achievement." Song Wenhui smiled and pushed her daughter away... Everyone had to go to her aunt Song Ying's house for dinner on the third day of the New Year. Only Chen Huai has the important task of dating and can be absent.
I don’t know if my sister-in-law called Song Hongjun at night. Early the next morning, Song Hongjun sent the Cadillac that he had picked up in běi.
When she woke up in the morning, Chen Huai sat in the yard reading in the sun. She waited until half past ten to call Cheng Yi and talked about the meal. I don’t know if it was for her parents to teach her, but Cheng Yi did not refuse on the phone and asked Chen Huai to drive over to pick her up.
Song Hongjun's car had all kinds of passes prepared. Chen Huai drove the car into the Yanjing Municipal Party Committee compound without any barriers and parked the car in front of Building No. 3.
When he first came to the door, he also carried a gift to Cheng Wenguang, Liu Xuemei and his wife for New Year's greetings. He rang the doorbell and listened to the jumping footsteps. He thought that Cheng Yi would never be able to come out so happily to welcome him, and Liu Xuemei would not be able to lose her composure.
When the door opened, I unexpectedly saw Xiao Wu Qingli's face popping out and smiling at him: "You are so active. You have not been called for a quarter of an hour..."
"Why are you here?" Chen Huai asked in confusion.
"Why, I think I'm a light bulb," Xiao Wu tilted his head, looked at Chen Huai with a smile, and said, "Then I can go back..."
Chen Huai thought that Cheng Yi could not refuse, and she didn't want to date him alone, so she thought of pulling Xiao Wu over to placate the back. Looking at Xiao Wu's innocent face, Chen Huai felt relieved:
If it weren't for the situation, why would he have to come to the cold Cheng Yi for fun? It would be great to have Xiaowu accompany him to have dinner.
"I don't think you are a light bulb. I'm just afraid that you have too much appetite and will lose weight for me..." Chen Huai smiled and looked in. He saw a middle-aged woman with a nanny looking over. She didn't see Cheng Yi, nor did Cheng Wenguang and Liu Xuemei and his wife at home.
Cheng Yi seemed to have deliberately taken the patient and put on makeup in the room for an hour, but Xiao Wu was dragging her back and came out.
Yesterday, all the elders were there, and Cheng Yi didn't dare to show Chen Huai's face too much. She also wanted to give Chen Huai a smile in her words. Although she was forced to agree to Chen Huai's appointment today, no one else was there, so she simply turned cold and ignored Chen Huai at all. After going out to get in the car, she only whispered to Xiaowu, treating Chen Huai as the driver who was responsible for driving today and the follower who paid the bills for dinner.
Chen Huai knew that Cheng Yi wanted him to take the initiative to retreat, so how could he be as she wanted?
Even if he acts, he will only act one more day. If there is no plane tomorrow, he will take the train to Donghua via Xu Cheng, and then he will be out of sight.
I picked a Western restaurant near Wangfujing and ordered food. Seeing that Cheng Yi was still ignorant, Xiao Wu was quite embarrassed when he got caught in it, Chen Huai also intended to tease her.
The waiter brought the shalian steak he ordered, and Chen Huai methodically cut the steak into small pieces with a knife and fork, and piled it on the corner of the small plate.
Xiao Wu looked at Chen Huai cutting the steak into small pieces, but did not eat it. He asked him in confusion: "What are you doing?"
Chen Huai waved to the waiter and called out: "Comrade, can you help me serve a bowl of rice and bring me a pair of chopsticks?" He complained to Xiao Wu seriously, "Everyone said that this Western restaurant is very high-end. After cooking a whole piece of meat, it is necessary for the customers to cut it by themselves. I really don't see where it is high-end?"
The waiter who was about to leave heard Chen Huai's words and slipped his feet and fell down with his feet. Cheng Yi was chewing a bite of spaghetti in her mouth, but she couldn't help it. She burst into Shen Huai's face with a "puff" sound. Looking at the spaghetti on Chen Huai's face, Xiao Wu was so happy that he almost rolled under the table.
Chen Huai also said to Cheng Yi seriously: "You can eat whole noodles, you don't have to chew them for me..."
