Yunyin was the winner of the regular script category, so Mr. Zhou presented her with the award in the end.
It's worth mentioning that Chen Yiping also specially prepared his calligraphy work for Yunyin, which was a regular script piece.
The inscription reads: "There will be times when the wind and waves will be strong, and we will set sail to cross the vast ocean."
It is meant to encourage Yunyin.
What a considerate old man! Although Yunyin didn't feel that he was being unfair, receiving a gift from her teacher really made her feel valued.
In Chen Yiping's mind, first and second place are not important; they are all his disciples.
The key is that both of them have an upward-looking mindset, and that's enough.
The three of them walked out of the calligraphy association chatting and laughing, a scene that was observed by a young man at the door.
His eyes were red as he rushed forward excitedly: "Master Chen, what a great mood you're in!" His face was full of hatred, as if Chen Yiping had killed his mother.
Chen Yiping's expression changed instantly.
"Xiao Qing, I've already given you all the money. There's nothing else I can do for you."
Liu Yihang and Yunyin looked at the young man with some doubt. Chen Yiping's attitude towards him was very relaxed, as if he were treating a junior.
"What a convenient excuse of being powerless! My grandmother was, after all, your first wife, who bore you children."
She's in grave danger now, and you won't even say a few kind words to her? What kind of calligrapher are you? Heartless, ungrateful, worse than pigs and dogs! The young man named Xiao Qing stood at the entrance of the calligraphy association and started cursing.
It attracted a lot of people to stop and watch, because there was an awards ceremony today, so there were many people here.
Liu Yihang and Yunyin's expressions changed.
Is this man actually Master's grandson?
How could he swear like that!
"Your grandmother is promiscuous and unfaithful. She just divorced my master and immediately remarried. She said she disliked my master because he only cared about academics and didn't care about his family. But that's just an excuse for her infidelity."
Even though you're divorced, your grandmother still takes most of my master's salary and subsidies every month to support her lover and your whole family.
They even asked my mentor to pay for their house, which drained his savings. They never even visited the elderly during holidays. They're more conscientious than you guys when it comes to raising a dog.
"Shamelessness knows no bounds!"
As a girl, Yunyin is naturally fond of gossip and knows some of Chen Yiping's past. After all, it caused such a stir back then, and many people know some of the inside stories.
As for the money, she discovered it by chance in an expense notebook on Chen Yiping's desk.
Most older generations have a habit of keeping records.
Yunyin discovered that Chen Yiping had a large monthly expense that was always given to a woman named Bai Ting. Later, she learned that Bai Ting was his ex-wife.
In the years since the divorce, he has never stopped paying Bai Ting's living expenses, which is enough to support the whole family, young and old.
There was also an expense of 100,000 yuan last year, which was listed as payment for Xiao Qing's house purchase.
That's why Yunyin was so angry after hearing what he said.
Why would such a good person as Master have such unfilial descendants?
Chen Yiping glanced at Yunyin disapprovingly.
How did you know?
"Master, I'm sorry, I accidentally saw the notebook on your desk..." Yunyin explained softly.
"Never mind, let's go."
Chen Yiping sighed, not wanting to say anything more.
The man named Xiao Qing was clearly stunned when he heard Yun Yin's words.
Because this is completely contrary to the facts he knows.
He was told from a young age that his grandfather was a terrible person who used his money to support his students' academic pursuits but didn't spend any of it on his family or care about their well-being. As a result, his grandmother couldn't take it anymore and divorced him.
In his memory, the family's expenses over the years had all come from his kind-hearted stepfather.
Even the money for her wedding and house purchase last year was paid by her stepfather.
Therefore, he naturally didn't give Chen Yiping a friendly look and was full of hostility.
But what did he just hear? This little girl said that Chen Yiping pays them living expenses every month? Why has Grandma never mentioned that?
At this moment, he knew he shouldn't doubt his grandmother, but he still wavered a bit, and his attitude softened considerably.
“You can’t leave! You have to help with my grandmother’s matter; you owe us this.” He remained blocking our way.
Liu Yihang never expected there to be such a shocking revelation involved.
As more and more people gathered, in order to prevent his master from being laughed at, he went forward and picked up the man named Xiao Qing, and the group walked together toward the car.
"If there's anything you need to say, let's leave here first."
Chen Yiping tacitly accepted his apprentice's decision.
Xiao Qing was forcibly pushed into the passenger seat.
The group returned to school.
Chen Yiping remained silent throughout, but he could also tell that his grandson harbored great hostility towards him.
Actually, apart from a few brief encounters when he was a child, he hasn't had much contact with this grandson over the years, as Bai Ting doesn't allow him to see the child.
He once imagined that Xiao Qing would grow up to be like Liu Yihang—handsome, brave, upright, and positive.
His illusions were shattered after these two meetings.
This child is just like Bai Ting—selfish, self-centered, and selfish.
Although he was disappointed in him, he still gave him all the money he could afford when they met last time.
Although Bai Ting had wronged him, they were still husband and wife, and he couldn't bear to stand by and watch her die.
As for the other thing, he simply couldn't do it.
The group arrived at Chen Yiping's house in silence.
"Please have a seat, I'll go pour some tea." Chen Yiping was unusually calm, as if this were just an ordinary meeting.
"I don't drink tea. Give me a straight answer: will you help me or not?" Xiao Qing patted the coffee table excitedly.
Liu Yihang placed one hand on his shoulder and secretly squeezed it with five-tenths of his strength.
"Speak nicely to my master."
He was a scoundrel who bullied Chen Yiping but dared not show the slightest hostility towards Liu Yihang, fearing that this man would deal with him.
Chen Yiping noticed Liu Yihang's protectiveness, but said nothing. He went in and poured three cups of tea.
Then he quietly went into the study, took out his account book and remittance receipts, and placed them in front of Xiao Qing.
"My legal obligation is to support your father until he turns eighteen. He was already eighteen when I divorced your grandmother, so I shouldn't have to pay any extra fees."
It's hard to say who was right or wrong in my marriage with your grandmother. We were both adults, and we just didn't want to stay together anymore. It's our own business. It's just a pity for you younger generations.
So we're paying this money so that you can have a better life.
I feel I have a clear conscience.
I was so happy for you when I learned you were getting married last year. This 100,000 yuan is my blessing.
I gave you the last sum of money a few days ago. I have nothing more to give you now, so please don't come looking for me again.
"As for what you said the other day, I still stand by what I said: I can't do it." Chen Yiping spoke calmly and deliberately.
