Chapter 939: Gifts
Song Lao and Director Lu both picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and Song Lao exclaimed: "Not bad, not bad! It seems that Ruofei's tea art has also improved a lot!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said: "The tea ceremony is about life perception, and I am just a class in front of the two of you......"
After speaking, Xia Ruofei also picked up the teacup and took a sip, the unique fragrance of the big red robe came to his nose, and the tea soup left a fragrance on his lips and teeth after entering the mouth, and the aftertaste was endless.
Xia Ruofei's tea leaves for Song Lao are naturally the best. All the tea greens used are picked from the tea trees directly cut from the branches of the mother tree Da Hong Pao, which is the second generation of the mother tree Da Hong Pao, and the basic traits of asexual reproduction can be said to have been preserved.
In addition, this tea is still made by Xia Qing himself, and the quality is much higher than the big red robes sold by Taoyuan Company on the Internet - of course, even if it is a Taoyuan big red robe sold in batches, it can definitely be called a fine tea, and those tea leaves that are often thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan a pound are actually not as good as Taoyuan big red robes.
"Ruofei is too modest!" Song Lao said with a smile, "I make tea by myself, I feel that there is a little less artistic conception, it seems that there are more fireworks, it seems that I am a layman after all!"
"Grandpa Song, you have family and country feelings!" Xia Ruofei said, "A businessman like me is an ordinary man!"
Although Song Lao has retired for many years, how can a leader of his level completely stay away from politics as long as he does not enter Babaoshan? Song Lao still maintains the habit of reading books, newspapers, and documents every day, and is also very concerned about major state affairs.
Song Lao laughed heartily and said, "You kid...... It's not the time when businessmen are inferior......"
Xia Ruofei chatted with Song Lao and Director Lu for a while, and then remembered that the gift he brought had not been taken out yet.
So he stood up and said, "Grandpa Song, I also brought you a small gift, you can wait a minute......"
After speaking, Xia Ruofei stepped aside and took out a black jade Zhong Kui jade carving from his bag, and walked straight to Song Lao.
Before coming to Beijing, Xia Ruofei had thought about sending a jade carving to Song Lao.
Although this magic weapon is worth more than 100 million yuan in Du Qinghong's eyes, Xia Ruofei does not hesitate, this highly respected legendary general is not only a kind elder in his eyes, but also an absolute idol at the beginning of his army.
The main reason is that the statue of Guan Gong seems to be too strong, but Zhong Kui is a famous door god in traditional culture, and it will not be inappropriate to give it to Song Lao.
Xia Ruofei handed the jade carving to Song Lao, and said with a smile: "Some time ago, I got a rare piece of black jade by chance, so I carved a few gadgets with my own hands, and this Zhong Kui jade carving will be given to you for the old man!"
Song Lao is naturally knowledgeable, and when he saw this Zhong Kui jade carving, he couldn't help but have a trace of essence in his eyes.
Although he didn't know that this magic weapon was worth more than 100 million yuan, just because of the rarity and material of this jadeite, as well as the lifelike carving, the value of this jade carving would definitely not be low, at least at the level of tens of millions of yuan.
Besides, the Gathering Spirit Jade Guanyin presented by Xia Ruofei is infinitely useful, how can this Zhong Kui jade carving be just an ordinary statue? If there are some other functions, the value will be even more incalculable.
Song Lao smiled bitterly and said, "Ruofei, you are making me make a mistake! This gift is a bit too expensive......
In the past, Xia Ruofei gave him something, whether it was tea, wine, or the very valuable Juling Jade Guanyin, Song Lao accepted it without much excuse, because he didn't treat Xia Ruofei as an outsider, and the right was his junior's filial piety to himself.
But today, Song Lao still hesitated.
Because this jade carving is obviously more valuable than the previous Gathering Spirit Jade Guanyin.
Xia Ruofei smiled lightly and said: "How can you make mistakes? This is just a little bit of the junior's mind, besides, I don't ask you to do anything, you have already retired, this has nothing to do with organizational discipline, right?"
Strictly speaking, Xia Ruofei's words are a bit quibble-even if Song Lao retired, how could his influence be underestimated? Moreover, he is not Song Lao's blood relative, and the statement that the younger generation respects the elders is not convincing, even if this is the real situation.
Song Lao looked at Xia Ruofei's eyes, and Xia Ruofei didn't avoid it at all, just looked at him calmly.
Xia Ruofei's eyes are very clear, without the slightest utilitarian color, even under the power of Song Lao, he can be calm and light, the so-called selflessness in the bottom of his heart is wide, nothing more.
Old Song looked at Xia Ruofei for more than ten seconds before he showed a hint of a smile.
"Ruofei, what if I don't accept this jade carving?" asked Song Lao with interest.
Xia Ruofei said without hesitation: "Then I have to take it back! You don't like my gift, and I can't force you!"
Song Lao couldn't help laughing and said, "I thought you would say you were going to smash it?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Grandpa Song, are you doubting my IQ? This jade carving is worth a lot of money, how can I not get along with money?"
The more Xia Ruofei replied so casually, the happier Song Lao was in his heart, he smiled while stretching out his finger and pointing at Xia Ruofei, and said, "You kid is sincere!"
"Then do you want to accept it or not?" Xia Ruofei asked.
Song Lao didn't hesitate this time, nodded and said: "Receive! How can I push the benefits of sending them to the door! I don't have any pressure to put away the gifts you kid gave me!"
Song Lao's words are indeed true, although Song Laodu once personally greeted Xia Ruofei and asked his old subordinates to take care of him, but Xia Ruofei has always been cautious of his duty, and has never used his banner to make profits for himself, and he is still very relieved about Xia Ruofei's character.
Even in front of Director Lu, Song Lao accepted this precious gift very calmly.
While groping with the Zhong Kui jade carving with great interest, he smiled and asked, "Let's talk about it! This jade carving should have some other wonderful uses, right?"
Xia Ruofei said: "This ...... You can understand that it has been turned on by the light, and if you put it in your home, ordinary demons and evil spirits will not be able to do anything, but you can keep your house safe!"
Director Lu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he listened to it, and said in his heart that this is a bit too idealistic, right?
The previous Gathering Spirit Jade Guanyin, as long as he was close to Song Lao's side, he could feel the change in that aura, which made people very comfortable, but this Zhong Kui jade carving was actually to drive away evil and avoid evil, which was invisible and intangible......
However, Song Lao didn't disbelieve it, but his eyes lit up slightly, and he asked, "So, this is a magic weapon?"
This time it was Xia Ruofei's turn to be surprised, he didn't expect that Song Lao actually knew the magic weapon.
But after thinking about it, I was relieved, after all, Song Lao's status before he retired was quite prominent, and he could also understand some secrets that ordinary people didn't know, and naturally knew that feng shui metaphysics was not all feudal superstition, maybe he knew something about some of the master-level figures in that circle!
Xia Ruofei thought for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, but the benefits of that Jade Guanyin before are more obvious to you, in order to avoid aura conflicts, you can wear that Jade Guanyin with you, and this Zhong Kui jade carving can be placed at home." โ
The Song family's house is very old, the Song family alone has lived for decades, and Song Lao was not the first owner of this house, it was the housing assigned to him later by the organization, this kind of old house with a long history, it is really hard to say whether there will be some unclean things, this Zhong Kui jade carving is placed at home, which can play the role of a town house.
Ordinary people may still worry about the safety of jade carvings, but Song Lao's side is impregnable, and the vigilance inside and outside is quite strict, so naturally there will be no risk of theft.
Song Lao nodded and said, "Okay, just as you said, put it in my house." โ
After speaking, Song Laoyou played with this jade carving very fondly for a while.
Since Song Lao placed this Zhong Kui jade carving in the backyard hall, this old mansion seems to have gradually undergone some subtle changes.
In the past, Song Lao himself didn't feel anything, after all, he had experienced a tragic war back then, and it could be said that he crawled out of the pile of dead people, and the murderous aura on his body was enough to make most of the evil people dare not get close at all.
But the staff in the old mansion, including Director Lu, will more or less feel that the house is a little gloomy at night, and sometimes some people will hear some strange sounds.
And since this Zhong Kui jade carving was placed in the house, everyone felt as if there was a little less cold at night, a little more warmth, and that gloomy feeling disappeared, as if the aura of the entire house had changed.
Of course, that's all for later.
That night, Song Lao and Xia Ruofei chatted for a long time, and then simply left Xia Ruofei to live in the old mansion.
The elder had an order, and Xia Ruofei naturally didn't dare to refuse, so he stayed in the guest room of the Song family's old mansion for one night.
The next day, he had breakfast with Song Lao, and then got up to say goodbye and leave.
Song Lao instructed Director Lu to prepare a lot of gifts for Xia Ruofei, and now the wine and tea produced by Xia Ruofei's own company are not even worse than the internal rationing that Song Lao enjoys, so Song Lao's gifts to Xia Ruofei are also missing tea and wine, mainly some supplements, special snacks and the like.
Of course, Song Lao knew that Xia Ruofei smoked, so the special cigarettes were naturally indispensable, and even Director Lu couldn't help but be envious of the two boxes of twenty cigarettes.
This is almost the ration of Song Lao for a whole year, and now Song Lao himself has long stopped smoking, so he simply gave it all to Xia Ruofei.
Director Lu knew that last time Song Rui came back on the weekend, he cautiously wanted to ask Song Lao for a few packs, but he was unceremoniously refused.
And when it was given to Xia Ruofei, it was directly sent to the box.
How can this make the love of grandchildren embarrassing...... Director Lu said secretly with some amusement in his heart.
After Xia Ruofei drove back to the courtyard in Liuhai Hutong, he called Song Wei, and Song Wei learned that Xia Ruofei was free today, so she immediately put down a research topic in her hand and rushed directly to the courtyard.
The two of them used the time formation method to cultivate for more than ten days, and they didn't stop cultivating until it was close to noon outside time.
After this cultivation, Song Wei's cultivation has improved again, and she is one step closer to the 3rd layer of Qi training, Xia Ruofei estimates that if she cultivates two or three more times, she should be able to touch the bottleneck of breakthrough.
When the two of them practiced together, the entry of this "Taichu Heart Sutra" was very fast, even no less than Xia Ruofei's "Great Dao Decision".
Xia Ruofei's own cultivation has also made some progress in the process of cultivating the Taichu Heart Sutra, but it is not as obvious as Song Wei'sโafter all, the entry in the early stage of cultivation is definitely faster.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but sigh at the magic of this exercise.
Of course, the advantages and disadvantages of the "Taichu Heart Sutra" are obvious, and the main restriction is that two people must cultivate together, and in the long run, it is obviously inferior to the "Great Dao Decision".
"The Great Dao Decision" directly points to the origin of cultivation, which can be used by Xia Ruofei to cultivate to a very high level, but in comparison, the stamina of "Taichu Heart Sutra" is not so sufficient.
After all, these are two exercises of completely different levels.
After Xia Ruofei accompanied Song Wei to have lunch in the courtyard, he persuaded Song Wei to go back to school.
Song Wei herself really wanted to continue cultivating again in the afternoon.
However, Xia Ruofei considered that cultivation was too anxious and could easily cause the foundation to be unstable, and that he was going to participate in the bidding for that land tomorrow, Zhao Yongjun and Song Rui had already discussed it with Xia Ruofei, and they would come to the courtyard together in the afternoon, and then everyone would set off directly from here tomorrow.
Xia Ruofei didn't know when Zhao Yongjun and they would arrive, but if they saw Song Wei in his house, it would not be good to spread the word.
In the end, Song Wei also accepted Xia Ruofei as reason, and with a hint of loss and unfinished, she got into Wu Qiang's car and left the courtyard.
Facts have proved that Xia Ruofei's decision is very correct, Zhao Yongjun and the others came to the courtyard at more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and Wu Qiang, who went to send Song Wei back to school, had not yet returned.
If Song Wei stayed in the afternoon to continue her cultivation, there was no doubt that she would be caught by them.
Although it is unlikely that the time formation and cultivation will be exposed, Song Wei is Song Qiming's pearl after all, and staying with Xia Ruofei is a lonely man and widow, it is inevitable that the impact will not be good.
Zhao Yongjun and his entourage drove a Mercedes-Benz business car, and Zhao Yongjun asked with a smile as soon as he got out of the car: "Ruofei, why did you open the door yourself?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "I'll let him go out to do some errands!" Brother Zhao, didn't you say come over in the evening? Why did you arrive so early?"
Before Zhao Yongjun could speak, Song Rui on the side said: "Hey, brother drank a little wine at noon, and he didn't have any place to go in the afternoon, so he just came to your side to find a place to sleep!"
Xia Ruofei was speechless for a while - co-authored the buddy here as a hotel!
He saw that except for Wei Jun, who was driving, the smell of alcohol on everyone else was very strong, and it seemed that they had not drunk much at noon.
"Well, then you're welcome...... Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Let's pick your own room!"
"Wait!" Song Rui exclaimed, "There's still something to do!"
Tenderness in the steel gun said
