Chapter 315: Couplets
Su Qi and Xiao Douzi came to the bookstore and quickly picked out red paper and writing brushes.
The two did not hang around on the street, but went straight home.
"Mom, do you need to write these couplets on a big table?"
"Well, just write on this square table in the main room."
"Then let me wipe it." Xiaodouzi found a rag.
He was short, so he stood on a stool to wipe it.
Aunt Qin knew that Dr. Su was writing couplets, so she came over as well.
She saw how hard Xiaodouzi was trying to clean the table, so she grabbed the rag and said, "I'll do it."
It can be wiped off in just two strokes.
And wipe it twice with a dry rag.
Here, Su Qi cuts the red paper first.
She bought quite a lot of red paper, so she cut a few extra pieces.
First spread the cut paper on the table.
The ink is bottled and does not need to be ground.
After lubricating the new brush, she began to write calligraphy - Aunt Qin knew very few words, just a few simple ones.
This was taught by her son.
Now I see the couplet written by Su Qi──although I don’t know what she wrote, she thinks the handwriting is really good.
Better than the ones she bought.
"Doctor Su, your handwriting is so beautiful!"
"Mom wrote it very well!" Xiaodouzi is the king of supporting roles. "It's the best I've ever seen!"
Su Qi couldn't help but smile when she heard this, "How many have you seen?"
Xiaodouzi said loudly, "One! It's mother."
These words made both Su Qi and Aunt Qin laugh.
Just one──he has the nerve to say it’s the best he’s ever seen.
In a short while, Su Qi had finished writing five couplets.
She was still looking at the written couplet and was somewhat satisfied.
It seems that even after changing her body, her skills have not diminished.
She has been learning things quickly since she was in primary school, so she has learned a lot.
This calligraphy is just one of them.
She knows two fonts.
However, what she wrote today was regular script, which showed some skill.
"Aunt Qin, these two are for you."
When Aunt Qin heard this, she was extremely happy.
"Oh, that's great! Doctor Su, I'll take it without hesitation."
She really had no way of refusing because the couplets she wrote were better than the two she bought.
"It's just two couplets. Take them! I wrote two more for you anyway."

"Doctor Su, you are indeed a scholar. What you wrote is better than what I bought. If you set up a stall, you can probably sell it for a lot of money!"
In the past, couplets could be exchanged for eggs or something, but now you can pay for them, and they are worth ten cents a pair!
If I write more, wouldn't it be able to sell for a lot of money?
However, Dr. Su and Xiao Bei are not short of money.
One is a doctor and the other is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. Their combined salary is quite high.
She also didn't expect that Xiao Bei, who was recuperating at home, was actually the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau.
Two days ago, she heard that little Sun calling "Deputy Director Xiao" and she was so shocked.
Su Qi: "Aunt Qin, make some paste! I'll stick it on."
"Oh, okay, I'll go adjust it now!"
Xiao Bei did not come back at noon. When he returned home in the afternoon, he saw the couplet posted on the gate and was a little surprised.
At this time, Xiao Sun also saw it and couldn't help but praise: "Where did sister-in-law buy this couplet? The calligraphy is so beautiful!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the show-off Xiaodouzi rushed out and said proudly, "Uncle Xiaosun, that was written by my mother, not bought!"
Xiao Sun was very surprised when he heard what Xiao Douzi said, "Sister-in-law wrote this? She is really amazing."
