There were a lot of people gathered in front of the Peace Medical Center, and these people were not ordinary people, but big families in the city, and they were waiting anxiously.As soon as the door of the medical hall opened, a group of people swarmed in, like bandits.However, unlike before, there was no wood carving on the wooden frame against the wall of the Peace Medical Center."
Doctor Wang, why is it empty today" "Yes, we have been waiting for a long time, we didn't grab it last time, but I have prepared a lot of silver tickets this time" "Who is not, the last time I shouted the price, and finally sold for eight hundred taels of silver."
At that time, I was short of ten taels, and I didn't get it, so I lost it," a group of people said babblingly, all of them looking very eager.Wang Qi smiled bitterly and looked at me.I sat in a chair in the corner of the hospital and drank tea.Originally, I didn't want to show up, but Wang Qi didn't have much confidence, and kept saying that the price of this wood carving was too much for a hundred taels of gold, which put a lot of pressure on him.I can't help it, so I just come from the backyard and sit down.I nodded at him.Motioning for him to do as I say.The smile on Wang Qi's face became even more bitter, he took out a wooden box from his arms, and said with a wry smile to those people: "Everyone, this time the wood carving is not the same as the previous one, and the price may be a little more expensive" Hearing Wang Qi say this.Those people were even more excited, and they were all clamoring for a big price.After all, the reputation of the previous few times has already been played, and since Wang Qi said so, they must feel that the quality of the wood carving this time is higher than the previous one."
I'll pay 900 taels of silver" and "I'll pay 950 taels" are constantly shouting, and they even compete for the price of more than 1,000 taels of silver.But such a lively scene made the smile on Wang Qi's face even more bitter."
Everyone, listen to me" Seeing that this scene was about to get out of control, Wang Qi hurriedly said: "Let's take a look at this thing first" Saying, Wang Qi directly opened the box, and in the box lay quietly the wood carving that I carved last night.Under the lonely and sad atmosphere, those people looked at the wood carvings in a daze, and tears flowed down unconsciously.After a long time, a big white and fat man woke up first and roared: "I bought this wood carving for as much as I wanted" This guy was the first to go to the Peace Medical Center to buy wood carvings, and he has a lot of money and good eyesight.As he roared, the others woke up, and the infirmary erupted into a louder noise than before."
One hundred taels of gold, this wood carving sells for one hundred taels of gold, everyone, I don't raise the price or reduce the price, that's the number.Who can take out a hundred taels of gold, this wood carving is presented with both hands" Wang Qi also let it out at this time.Roared.After shouting this, he directly shocked everyone present, and looked at Wang Qi stupidly one by one, as if they were looking at an idiot.One hundred taels of gold, you can buy a good small mansion in this Panyang City.No matter how rich these people are, they won't be so burning, "Brother Wang, can't it be cheap at all?"
or the white and chubby rich man took the lead in opening his mouth, a wry smile appeared on his fat face, and said: "Your price is a little too ruthless" He said.Wang Qi's face was slightly red, and he turned his head to look at me, a little hesitant."
One hundred taels of gold, no less," I said lightly as I sipped my tea.Hear me out.Those people turned their eyes to me, and many of them lit up.In the past two years, I rarely went out of the Peace Hospital, they only knew that there was a master woodcarver here, but few people had seen me.The white and chubby rich man had a bitter smile on his face, looked at me, and said softly: "Old man, one hundred taels of gold is not as simple as one hundred taels of silver, such a price, it is estimated that few families can afford it" "I am going to make up for Xiao Yong's tuition, otherwise let alone one hundred taels of gold, even if it is ten thousand taels, don't even think about buying this wood carving" I directly interrupted him.I'm telling the truth, this thing is an ornamental object in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the hands of some strong people, it is likely to become a supreme treasure that breaks through its own bottleneck.Maybe in their eyes I'm a stubborn old man, but I don't care.Most of the people present sighed and shook their heads, obviously giving up, but the white and chubby guy's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something, and yelled at Wang Qi: "Brother, you keep this thing for me, and I will go home and get the money immediately."
Remember, don't sell it to anyone, wait for me" After speaking, under the surprised gaze of everyone, the guy rushed out of the Peace Medical Hall like a meat ball, looking very panicked and eager.And this time.There were also many people in the audience who immediately reacted, patted their heads and shouted in annoyance: "Stupid, what are we buying this wood carving for, a few of them are left for their own families to watch, and they can't afford it, we can pass the news to those few people, so it can be regarded as a small credit" Before the words fell, the others had already reacted, and scolded the fat rich man who ran away in a hurry before, and then ran away in a puff of smoke, and went to the few people they wanted to knot to pass on the news.After those people ran away, Wang Qi was still a little stunned and couldn't come back to his senses, and finally looked at the wood carving in his hand, and then looked at me.With a trembling voice of disbelief, he said: "This is really sold" One hundred taels of gold, he had never seen so much money in his life.I stood up and said to him: "Whoever comes, just bite the price, I'm a little tired, I'll go to the backyard first" After speaking, ignoring Wang Qi, who was still a little shocked, I walked to the backyard with a cane tremblingly, and continued to sit in the courtyard carving one knife after another.It didn't take long for there to be a rush of footsteps from the Peace Medical Center, and then I saw Wang Qi leading a person to the backyard with a strange face.This person is Han Xiaoying, who is holding the wooden box in her hand, it is obvious that the transaction has been concluded, just look at Wang Qi's somewhat unrelenting appearance on the side."
It's you" Han Xiaoying was stunned for a moment after seeing me.At a hurried meeting two years ago, it was clear that she remembered me and looked at me with some surprise.Since it was someone from my family who got this wood carving, it was a good thing.I looked at her calmly, and said softly: "Is there something wrong, girl" Han Xiaoying came back to her senses, pointed to the box in her hand, and said with some doubts: "The wood carving in the box is really carved by you" "Isn't it like it" A slight smile appeared on my face.Han Xiaoying blinked her eyes and looked at me, a little confused in her eyes.I was really afraid that she would see my true identity somewhere, so I turned my head away from her and picked up the wood and the knife.Slowly carve it up.Knife after knife, never stopping, flowing smoothly.After a while, a wooden carving of a woman's figure emerged from my hand, but.This wood carving has no face.And I, too, stopped at this point.Han Xiaoying has been standing beside me, watching me drop the knife without blinking.Her strength has improved a lot in the past two years, but if she wants to see through my carving techniques and artistic conception, she is still not qualified.Even so.She was still stunned, affected by the artistic conception.After a long time, she took a deep breath, with a deep look of shock in her eyes, looked at the unfinished wood carving in my hand, and asked in a trembling voice: "Why don't you continue" "It's enough to see this, if you continue to watch, you can't stand it" I looked at her and said softly.This sentence shows that my identity is not ordinary, nothing else.I just want to use her mouth to spread my affairs to my family.At that time, my parents may come over because of curiosity It's been two years, and I haven't been able to see them, so just use this method to let them come to see me After hearing my words, Han Xiaoying's body trembled slightly, and then took a deep breath.He took a step back, folded his hands, and bowed deeply to me."
Thank you, senior" After leaving this sentence, Han Xiaoying left, leaving Wang Qi looking at me in a daze, his face was very complicated."
Why don't you know me," I said to Wang Qi with a smile.I understand Wang Qi's mood at this time, he knows Han Xiaoying and knows what her identity is.In this Panyang City, the status of the Han family is absolutely supreme.And Han Xiaoying is the proud daughter of the Han family, and she is a figure that ordinary people can't climb up for a lifetime.Now that Han Xiaoying actually took the initiative to salute me, it is obvious that I am not as simple as an ordinary old man he imagined."
You" Wang Qi's face was complicated, and he didn't seem to know what to say for a while.I looked at him and said in a vicissitudes of tone: "I am Li San, your Uncle Li, and Xiao Yong's third grandfather, this will not change."
Today, don't tell them about this" Wang Qi looked at me, took a deep breath, the complicated color on his face gradually faded, a smile appeared on his face again, nodded fiercely, and said: "Uncle Li, you will always be my Uncle Li" Then, he shouted to the side of the house: "Xiao Yong, your tuition is ready, you can join the dojo" That night, the family made a hearty meal, Xiao Yong screamed excitedly, and the family was very happy.In the early morning of the next day, when the door of the medical hall was opened, several people at the door made Wang Qi stunned.Then he hurriedly invited a few people to the backyard and found me who was carving.The moment I saw those people, my hand carving the wood carving couldn't help but tremble, and I destroyed a wood carving that was about to be completed.Han Xiaoying came over with my parents, and at this time they were looking at me with a curious gaze, smiling at me with a little respect between their eyebrows.At this moment, I really felt the urge to recognize them, but in the end I resisted it.There is still more than a year to go, and if you can't fully comprehend that kind of artistic conception, you will eventually have to die and the lights will be extinguished.I don't want them to see me like this, and I don't want them to grieve again.Everything, wait a year to talk about it.
