Chapter 1021 A sudden shock
Mr. Jiang glanced at them, burst into laughter, stood up and rolled up his sleeves.
Mr. Zhuang turned to Manbao and Baishan and said, "Go get some good pen and paper."
Manbao and Baishan looked at each other and ran out to find something.
Mr. Jiang was very casual. He ground the ink by hand and wrote on the spread out paper. He only wrote one or two words on a piece of paper. The one for Bai Shan was "Lang", the one for Man Bao was "Xiuhui", and the one for Bai Erlang was "Ming".
He looked at Peng Zhiru and Lu Xiaofo, smiled and wrote two words for them, one was "warm" and the other was "forbearance".
Peng Zhiru and Lu Xiaofo were very happy. They blew on the ink gently to make it dry faster, and then put it away.
As soon as Bai Shan and the other two saw the words written by Mr. Jiang, they understood why Peng Zhiru and Lu Xiaofo were so excited, because his handwriting was really beautiful.
Bai Shan was so fond of his own calligraphy that he looked at Manbao's next to it and liked it too. He decided to borrow hers to copy when he got home.
Mr. Jiang put down his brush, and Mr. Chen beside him smiled and said, "You are lucky. Mr. Jiang rarely writes for others. Even old friends like us have to ask him for a calligraphy four or five times."
Mr. Jiang glanced at him and said, "Who said it's difficult? My family clears out a lot of waste paper every day. If you don't mind, I'll take it all for you."
"No, I can't beat the person guarding your door."
The three of them burst into laughter as they spoke.
Bai Shan looked at his husband curiously.
Mr. Zhuang smiled and explained, "Mr. Jiang's handwriting is very good, but it's hard to find a single character. So people often wait outside his door, waiting for him to take out the trash. Then, people rush forward to search through the waste paper, just to get a piece of Mr. Jiang's handwriting."
Mr. Zhuang said, "You love calligraphy. You still have a lot to learn from Mr. Jiang in the future."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang turned around and looked at Bai Shan, smiling and asking, "Lao Zhuang, is this the disciple you mentioned who particularly loves calligraphy?"
Mr. Zhuang nodded. "He has the best handwriting. When you have time, you must help me teach him."
Mr. Jiang smiled and said, "No problem, no problem."
Bai Shan hurriedly bowed to him.
Upon hearing this, Peng Zhiru and Lu Xiaofo looked at Bai Shan with envy. Even Mr. Chen beside him was surprised. He looked at Bai Shan, then at Mr. Jiang, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
They were bustling with activity when four or five people came over, talking. As they walked around the tree, they spotted Mr. Jiang and hurried forward, calling out, "Mr. Jiang, so you're right here! We had such a hard time finding you."
Manbao carefully put away his calligraphy in his arms, and turned around with Bai Shan and the others, and saw Chen Fulin standing in the middle of the five people.
She was slightly stunned for a moment, then moved her feet lightly. Bai Shan also moved at the same time, standing shoulder to shoulder with her, completely blocking Mr. Zhuang who was still sitting in his seat.
Mr. Zhuang looked up and saw the two children's buttocks. He said: ...
The visitor had already started greeting Mr. Jiang. Manbao and Baishan looked at Bai Erlang sideways.
Bai Erlang, who had already forgotten Chen Fulin, looked at the two of them in confusion. He took a step forward doubtfully and stood with them. Coincidentally, he blocked Mr. Zhuang's view.
Mr. Zhuang, who hadn't had time to see who was coming, said: ...
Manbao and Baishan thought he was extremely stupid and couldn't help but want to kill him with their eyes.
Bai Erlang felt guilty and angry, so he lowered his voice and asked, "What?"
Manbao whispered, "Didn't you see that the master's enemy is coming? Hurry up and take the master away. We will block your view. Hurry up."
Bai Erlang then remembered that their master seemed to be a troublesome person as well.
Bai Erlang felt sad for a moment, as if among the people who came to the capital, except him, everyone had enemies in the capital.
He turned around and supported Mr. Zhuang, who had just stood up and was about to come over to meet him, and took his arm around him as he turned around and was about to leave.
Mr. Zhuang paused. He didn't see Chen Fulin, nor could he recognize his voice, but Bai Erlang took his arm and walked away. He glanced at the two disciples blocking his way, and he vaguely sensed something, so he let Bai Erlang support him and turned away.
But after taking two steps, Mr. Chen stopped him and said, "Mr. Zhuang, where are you going?"
Everyone's eyes turned to look over.
Bai Shan quickly bowed and replied, "Mr. Chen, my master is drunk. Let me help him down to rest for a while."
Mr. Chen was stunned. "We didn't drink today."
Man Bao said seriously, "It's tea drunkenness. My husband has developed this new illness in the past two years. It might be because he drinks too much tea. When he drinks more tea, his body reacts as if he's drunk."
No one had ever heard of this, but seeing that Manbao didn't seem to be lying, they couldn't help but believe it a little.
Mr. Zhuang put his hand on his forehead, half leaned on Bai Erlang and was about to leave.
Chen Fulin suddenly narrowed his eyes and glanced at his back, then stared at Bai Shan and Man Bao for a while, and felt that he looked familiar, so he couldn't help but ask, "Is it Zhuang Xun?"
He walked forward quickly, and Bai Shan and Man Bao stepped in front of him at the same time, looking up at him unkindly.
Mr. Zhuang's mind raced, and after a quick mental assessment, he turned around and looked at Chen Fulin with a smile on his face. "It's me, who is this?"
Chen Fulin saw Mr. Zhuang again and could barely find traces of his youth on his old face. He couldn't help but swallow nervously, twitching his lips and taking a step forward. "Brother Zhuang, don't you remember me? I'm Chen Fulin. We used to study in the same prefecture school and even studied together in the capital many years ago."
Chen Fulin stared at Mr. Zhuang meaningfully and said, "Brother Zhuang, you don't remember anything?"
Mr. Zhuang patted his forehead and smiled. "I'm old now, and my memory isn't what it used to be. I've forgotten a lot of things. I didn't recognize Mr. Chen when I first saw him, but now that you've mentioned it, I've managed to remember. I didn't expect to see you here."
"Yeah, I didn't expect Brother Zhuang to come to the capital again."
Someone nearby laughed and said, "So you two are not only from the same hometown, but also classmates?"
Mr. Zhuang smiled and nodded.
"Oh my, this is a big happy event. You guys have to treat me to a meal today."
"Isn't this a great joy? It's not easy to meet an old friend in a foreign land."
Man Bao couldn't help but ask, "But isn't this the capital? There should be quite a lot of people from Jiannan Road here, and there are also quite a few from Yizhou. How could Lord Chen be missing any fellow townsmen?"
A group of middle-aged and elderly people sighed and said, "That's different. It's a surprise to see him suddenly like this."
Manbao and Baishan looked at each other: Maybe it was a sudden shock from the sky?
Mr. Zhuang stroked his beard, smiled, and looked at Chen Fulin frankly.
Chen Fulin stared at him for a while, but finally couldn't help but look away.
The next update will be around 8pm
