If people like Fang Hao and Zhao Chengxin didn't know the value of the inkstone, it was understandable. After all, the inkstone rarely appeared in the world. Many people had never even heard of it, let alone seen it with their own eyes.
It was said that because Wen Yuke had obtained a piece of inkstone, the bamboos he drew were different from other people. They looked vivid and lifelike, as if they were alive. Chao Buzhi wrote a poem for him, in which there were two lines: You can draw bamboo, you have a well-thought-out plan. This was also the origin of the idiom "have a well-thought-out plan" in later generations.
Under the influence of her father, Lu Gong, Lu Wan was well-read. There was nothing she didn't know about astronomy, geography, classics, and history. If Qin Yitian hadn't pointed out the origin of this stone, she herself wouldn't have been able to see its strangeness.
However, when Qin Yitian pointed out that this stone came from the Black Mountain in the Far West and said its name, Lu Wan understood the true value of this stone.
There was a strange saying: Black Heart Magic Stone can be seen, but Red Heart Inkstone is hard to find.
The stone in the box was the Red Heart Inkstone that the ancients said was the most difficult to find. The middle part of it was dark red, like burning charcoal.
One tael of black jade was worth 500 kilograms, so how much was such a big piece of black jade worth?
Some things were so rare that it was difficult to measure their value with money. Because even if you had money, you might not be able to buy it.
"A treasured sword should be given to a hero, and a piece of black jade should be given to a master," Qin Yitian said with a smile, "When I go home, I'll ask my uncle to give me a painting."
Qin Yitian ignored Lu Wan's objection and opened the second box held by the man in black. He glanced at the thing inside and said, "This is a phoenix coral from the East Sea. I have two pots at home, but it's a bit repetitive to place them, so I brought auntie one pot —"
Qin Yitian glanced at the living room, pointed to a square mahogany table in the corner, and said, "Put it there."
"Yi Tian, this isn't appropriate … it's really not appropriate …" Lu Wan still wanted to stop him.
Qin Yitian opened the big box in the hands of the third man in black. There was a small silver bowl in the small bowl. There was a piece of black stuff in the small bowl — this was the ointment made from the shell of the Black Tortoise. It was cut into the size of a fingernail and placed in the silver bowl. After mixing it with warm water, it could be applied to the face before going to bed at night to keep youthful. Swallowing it could replenish qi, blood, and spirit. Auntie, this is a gift specially prepared for you. You can try it later. If the effect is good, I'll cut more for you — "
Shh!
The three Fang sisters sucked in a breath of cold air. This kind of thing was fatally attractive to women.
Qin Yitian opened the fourth huge box. Inside the box was a beautiful fish tank. Two red fish were swimming in it, and there was a rootless plant that looked like a lotus leaf floating on the surface of the water.
Qin Yitian obviously liked this gift very much. He held Lu Wan's hand and introduced it, "Auntie, there are two red dragons inside. I've raised them for a few years. They're not valuable, but I like this bunch of rootless white lotus the most. It's from the Changbai Heavenly Lake. Just like now, it floats on the surface of the water without roots. When it blooms white lotus, it can fill the whole house, even the whole yard with a refreshing fragrance — "
Tsk —
Many people couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Qin Yitian still wanted to open the box below, but he was stopped by Lu Wan. Lu Wan looked at Qin Yitian, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She said, "Miss — Yi Tian, these gifts are too expensive, really too expensive. Every one of them is priceless. We really can't accept them. I know that you're grateful to Mr. Fang, and Fang Yan will also understand — but you must take these gifts back. "
In Lu Wan's view, these gifts brought by Qin Yitian could be placed together as a treasure. Drawing a picture and throwing it out could cause a crazy treasure hunt in the outside world.
No matter whose child she was, her parents would certainly not allow her to give these valuable collections to a teacher.
Lu Wan even guessed that these gifts brought by this little girl were secretly moved out when her family was not around.
At the end of the day, she was just a student.
Qin Yitian laughed and said, "Auntie, these are all useful things. You can just use them as ordinary things. What graphite? It's just a little stronger in color. And that rootless white lotus is not as good as a pot of plum blossoms. Just take it as a story and don't take it to heart. Since I brought them out, auntie, you must accept them no matter what. How can you take back the gifts that you've given out? "
"But these gifts —"
"Auntie, don't worry." Qin Yitian comforted her with a smile. She took Lu Wan's hand and walked to another box, saying, "Come and have a look at this box —"
Fang Yan lost several times in a row and lost all the money he had just won. He even took out his wallet and put some of his capital in it.
Of course, the advantage of losing money was that Ye Rou no longer complained about his smelly feet and kicked him from time to time.
Finally, he won another round. When he was waiting to receive the money, the cell phone in Fang Yan's pocket rang.
Fang Yan apologized and put down the long cards in his hand. He took out his cell phone and found it was a call from Fang Yingying.
Fang Yan answered the phone and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Junior Martial Uncle, come back quickly. Your student — has come to pay a New Year's visit. "Fang Yingying said excitedly.
Student? Come to pay a New Year's visit?
Fang Yan's first thought was that Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin had come, because among his students, only these two girls had been to Swallow Dock and knew his home address. However, Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin had just returned to Huacheng before the New Year's Day, and their parents couldn't let them go to Yan Jing on the first day of the New Year. Besides, when he called them last night, they also said that they would return to Yan Jing after the Lantern Festival.
Which student would come to pay a New Year's visit to him?
"Junior Martial Uncle, come back quickly. I'm busy, so I'll hang up. "Fang Yingxiong shouted and hung up the phone.
"He dared to hang up on me?" Fang Yan was infuriated. "Do they still respect me as an elder?"
"What's wrong? Something happened at home? " Hearing the content of Fang Yan's call, the Old Ancestor put the long cards on the table and said, "Go back if you have something to do. I'm also tired and need a rest. "
The poker field was like a battlefield, and escaping was a big crime.
Fang Yan said with a guilty face, "Old Ancestor, do you want me to play a few more rounds with you?"
"No need, no need. I want to play cards, and I'm not afraid of not being able to find a partner. Go back to your business. "The Old Ancestor said.
Fang Yan glanced at Ye Rou and said, "It's said that a student came to pay a New Year's visit. I'll go back and have a look."
Ye Rou didn't respond, and just lowered her head to play with the long cards in her hand.
After Fang Yan put on his shoes and left, the Old Ancestor looked at Ye Rou with a smile and said, "You little girl, Fang Yan is a guest. How can you say that his feet are smelly? Why? You're unhappy because he won a few rounds? "
"He's an idiot." Ye Rou said.
"He's not an idiot. He's a smart person. " The Old Ancestor sighed softly and said, "You think he keeps winning, so you're worried that I'll feel uncomfortable. But, if he lets me keep winning, will I feel comfortable in my heart? Because I'm older, you guys always take care of me. You don't want to win, and Xi 'er, the silly girl, pretended to play the wrong cards for me. Your father doesn't want to play cards with me, and your second and third uncles don't want to win. No one was willing to win against me. They just wanted me to win. At first, I was happy, but after being coaxed by you for so many years, I feel that playing cards is meaningless. Fang Yan, that kid, didn't treat me as an outsider. When he first arrived, he tried his best to win. After he won, he lost all the money he won. He made me nervous for a while, but he also gave me a lot of face. Tell me, how can I not like him when he's so considerate and considerate towards me? "
Ye Rou was stunned for a long time, and then she scolded, "He's a slippery guy."
The Old Ancestor nodded with a smile and said, "You're right this time. This guy is slippery. But I heard on the phone that a student came to visit him for the New Year. What kind of student could come to our Swallow Dock? "
Ye Rou was also confused. She knew it couldn't be Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin she was familiar with, but she couldn't guess who it was.
Suddenly, she remembered the pair of eyes that were brighter than the moonlight in the night.
It had been so long, but she still had a deep memory of those eyes. Perhaps, anyone who saw that pair of eyes would find it hard to forget.
"Is she here?" Ye Rou said softly.
"Who is here?" The Old Ancestor asked.
Ye Rou shook her head and didn't want to answer this question.
The Old Ancestor gave Xi 'er a look, and Xi' er immediately understood and said, "Old Ancestor, I'm going to play with Du Juan for a while. I'll be back soon. "
After that, she turned around and ran out of the door.
Ye Rou knew that the Old Ancestor asked Xi 'er to inquire about the news, so she didn't stop her.
She never forced others, and she didn't like others to force themselves.
When Fang Yan returned home, Qin Yitian was in the backyard paying his grandfather, Fang Huwei a New Year's greeting.
She took the cage that Eagle Mu was holding and lifted the black silk on top of the cage. Inside was a beautiful, snow-white bird with a flat beak.
Qin Yitian handed the bird to Fang Huwei and said, "Grandpa, this is a King Kong eagle. It doesn't usually make a sound, but when it does, it's like the roar of a king kong. It can drive away evil spirits and keep people safe. Looking closely, you and the King Kong eagle look alike. They all look very majestic. "
Fang Huwei took the Vajra Eagle and laughed, "Where did this girl come from? Her words and actions are as sweet as honey. This is a good gift. With this King Kong eagle, I don't have to worry about having nothing to do all day. "
Fang Yan stood at the door with a bitter smile. Looking at Qin Yitian's back, he said, "Are you going to buy my whole family?"
"Yes." Qin Yitian answered matter-of-factly. "I want them all to like me."
