Chapter 501 (2/2)
”They want to ask the village scholar to write a pair of couplets and two characters of blessing for their own family, so as to get a touch of the scholar's blessing.”
Gu Yuanlong collapsed on his shoulders.
”There are so many families in the village! How long will it take if I write it door to door? ”
”Then you have to write it for me, too!” Gu Tuo said, ”yes. By the way - they don't offer red paper yet. ”
Gu Yuanlong became more and more indignant. ”How can they do this! Now they don't need the money to buy red paper! ”
”Isn't our family not bad? What's more, the red paper at home is ready-made. Your uncle has just sent it to us today! ” Xia Ying said with a smile, she went over and took her son's little hand. ”Come on, you go to write, and I'll help you sharpen the ink. By the way, I forgot to tell you that your uncle also wants a copy of your calligraphy, and requires you to cover all the couplets and the word” Fu ”from the front door to the back door of his house, and even the couplets of the 16 rooms in the house. Three days later, he came to fetch it in person
”Of course, I collected money from your uncle, a pair of couplets and two Wen, and a word of blessing and a Wen. But let's forget about the village! The people in the countryside, our house is still pointing at them and helping to look after them in the future
”That's about it.” Gu Yuanlong was satisfied at last.
He took the initiative to pull up Xia Ying. ”That Niang, let's write couplets and blessing characters! How do you know it's already written, baby
Mother and son walked away laughing and talking.
Seeing the mother and son away, Gu Tuo snorted coldly. ”Stinky boy, how can you live more and more when you are such a big man? You didn't love to be coquettish before
Fortunately, he knows that Xia Ying still likes his good figure. And this half a year, he took off his coat from time to time and walked in front of Xia Ying. Without accident, he always got Xia Ying's mouth watering every time. With that in mind, he was in a much better mood.
”Well, I'm free anyway. I'll cut firewood! Train your muscles and bones by the way He whispered to himself, and the man had turned to the backyard.
Three days later, Gu Yuanlong's couplet and the word ”Fu” had been written and sent to the villagers from door to door. The villagers got Gu Yuanlong's calligraphy, and they were very grateful to Gu Yuanlong. All the men's football players in their hearts expressed their gratitude.
When he finished delivering the things to the villagers, song Jinyan came with his daughter-in-law!”Sister and brother-in-law, we are here to reunite with you!”
Just got off the bus, song Jinyan announced in a loud voice.
Gu Tuo's face was cold. ”Is this necessary? After new year's Eve, on the second day of the new year's day, we will go to your home to pay New Year's greetings, and we can get together at that time. ”
”I'll have to wait a few days! I haven't talked with my sister for half a year. It's rare that I have some time now. I have to get together with my sister. Otherwise, in the first month, when spring wine is put at home, I still have to exchange greetings with outsiders. How much time can I spend with my sister? ” Song Jinyan is not ashamed of his words, and then he really has the cheek to live with his daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law in their home!
Of course, in fact, in addition to eating and drinking, song Jinyan and his wife have done a lot of serious things these days. The most important thing is that ye and Xia Ying have worked together to account for the whole year, and then they sit down and discuss the arrangements for the next year.
This year, although the bookstore has only produced three batches of books, the response is very good, and the sales volume is also very good. So they have to start expanding the book store.
What's more, what is printed now is all the manuscripts that have been drawn long before Xia Ying, so it's easy to come out naturally. But from next year, Xia Yingde will start to draw a new one!
”There are also printing machines, which are not enough now. We have to start more than one machine together or use a bigger one. Brother in law, this is your strong point. Which one do you think is better? ” Song Jinyan directly asked Gu Tuo questions.
Gu Tuo's eyes flashed.
”If I had a choice, it would have been better to build a bigger printing machine. This takes up less space, but more books are printed at the same time. However, in this way, it is necessary to improve the original printing machine... ”
He said, people immediately turned back to the tool room, began to improve the machine!
