There are only two kinds of sports for men, in bed and out of bed.
This was what a sage said.
After a night of exercise, Ye Qiu woke up the next day, refreshed.
Nine o’clock in the morning.
Vice Mayor Huang personally came over to pick up Ye Qiu.
The car drove around the city for almost forty minutes and finally stopped in front of a villa.
“Little Ye, we’re here.”
Vice Mayor Huang said.
Ye Qiu nodded and pushed the door to get out of the car, and the first thing he saw was that on both sides of the main door, each side of the door towered a one-person-high stone lion, which was very imposing.
“Worthy of being a mansion.”
Ye Qiu sighed with emotion, and then saw that above the villa’s main gate, there hung a bronze plaque with two words engraved on it: the King’s Mansion!
To the left and right of the main door, there were also two wooden vertical plaques hanging with a couplet engraved on them.
The first couplet was: Golden Mountain, Silver Mountain, Mountain after Mountain, Mountain after Mountain, Mountain after Mountain, all heavy;
The next couplet is: big warehouse, small warehouse, warehouse after warehouse, warehouse are full.
The meaning of the couplet is so simple and plain that anyone who has read a book can understand it at a glance.
Moreover, the Wang family was a business family, so such a couplet was very much in line with their family style.
However, what attracted Ye Qiu the most was the words on the couplet.
The dragons flew and the phoenixes danced in a single breath, just like running clouds and flowing water, and there was a pleasing beauty to the eyes.
The most crucial thing was that the words also revealed a sharp aura.
Of course, people who didn’t know calligraphy couldn’t see this.
Seeing that Ye Qiu kept staring at the couplet, Vice Mayor Huang laughed and said, “Why, Little Ye, are you interested in this couplet?”
Ye Qiu shook his head and said, “I’m more interested in the person who wrote the couplet.”
“Oh?”Vice Mayor Huang was a bit surprised.
“Deputy Mayor Huang, what do you think of the writing?”Ye Qiu asked.
Vice Mayor Huang was also very proficient in calligraphy, staring at the couplet for a while and looking at it carefully, he said, “The penmanship is pale and strong, swimming in the clouds and shocking the dragons, it’s a rare masterpiece!”
“Then how old do you think, the person who wrote this couplet, is?”Ye Qiu asked again.
“At least sixty or seventy years old!”
Ye Qiu laughed, “If my judgement is not wrong, the person who wrote this couplet should be very young, or even, no older than thirty.”
What!
Vice Mayor Huang was a bit disbelieving and said, “As far as I know, even the most famous ones of today’s calligraphers couldn’t have written such good characters at thirty.”
“Therefore, the person who writes is a genius, or perhaps, the standard of his calligraphy is already top-notch in the world.”
Just as Ye Qiu finished speaking, a voice came out from inside the door.
“What makes you think that the person who wrote this couplet is young?”
As the words fell, a young man walked out from the Wang family.
He was young, only two or three years older than Ye Qiu, with a flat head, deep-framed glasses, and white shirt and suit trousers, looking very old-fashioned.
Ye Qiu also observed that although the weather was hot, the youth had all the buttons on his shirt buttoned up, so it was evident that he was a sophisticated person.
“Hello, Deputy Mayor Huang!”
The youth greeted Vice Mayor Huang, then looked at Ye Qiu and said with a serious face, “What makes you think that the person who wrote this couplet is young? What basis do you have?”
Ye Qiu laughed, “Because I saw a sharp aura between the lines of this couplet, with the momentum of sweeping away thousands of troops, which is definitely not something that someone who is older can write.”
“Just based on this?”The youth frowned slightly.
“Just based on this.”Ye Qiu looked at the youth and smiled, “You wrote the couplet on the door, right?”
At those words, the youth was shocked in his heart.
How did he know that the couplet was written by me?
This matter was never known to outsiders except for the family.
The youth was surprised in his heart, but his face didn’t move as he faintly asked Ye Qiu, “Why do you think I wrote this couplet?”
“I just carefully observed the couplet and found that the gaps between the words were as big as the words, so it’s obvious that the person who wrote it must be a meticulous person.”
Ye Qiu looked at the youth and smiled, “And you, you are a meticulous person.”
“When you first met me, you said that I was meticulous, where did this come from?”The youth asked with a face full of curiosity.
Who knew, Ye Qiu smiled faintly and actually stopped talking.
This made the youth very depressed.
As a meticulous person, anything must be known clearly.
In his life, he hated half-sentence parties!
The kind of half-sentence party that stopped talking halfway through their speech were no good.
May all the half-sentence parties in the world have no little jigu-jigu.
The youth cursed in his heart for a while before saying, “You’re right, I wrote the couplet, I want to know, how on earth did you see it?”
Ye Qiu grinned, “I guessed.”
Day!
The youth’s face went green.
He thought that Ye Qiu had some kind of exceptional skill, but he didn’t know that it was all based on guessing, if he had known it was like this, he wouldn’t have talked nonsense with Ye Qiu.
“Deputy Mayor Huang, I don’t know what you came to my house for?”The youth asked politely.
“Duke Wang, I came here specifically to bring Little Ye to see Elder Wang.”Vice Mayor Huang said.
“Xiao Ye?”The youth’s eyes landed on Ye Qiu’s face and asked, “It’s you who are talking about?”
“It’s me.”Ye Qiu smiled, “My name is Ye Qiu.”
Ye Qiu?
The youth frowned again, the name was a bit familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
“I’m Wang Xuan.”
Actually, without the youth saying it, Ye Qiu guessed it as well.
Ye Qiu smiled, “I’ve heard of Sir Wang’s great name, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
“You’ve heard of me?”Wang Xuan asked.
“The Four Young Men of Jiangzhou are as famous as thunder, how could I not have heard of them.”
Among the four young men of Jiangzhou, Ye Qiu had already met Feng Youling, Zhou Hao, and Li Qiancheng, but Wang Xuan was the only one he had met for the first time.
Although Wang Xuan looked a bit old-fashioned, he was far from Feng Youling’s rich second generation.
“Are you a doctor?”Wang Xuan asked again.
“Yes.”
“Traditional Chinese Medicine or Western Medicine?”
Ye Qiu thought to himself that someone with an archaic personality like Wang Xuan should believe in traditional culture a bit more, so he replied, “I’m more proficient in Chinese medicine.”
“Coincidentally, my friend also invited a Chinese medicine master over to treat my grandfather, they are already here.”
After Wang Xuan finished speaking, a luxurious Rolls Royce drove over and stopped in front of the Wang family villa.
The car door opened and from the driver’s side came down a yellow-haired young man.
Feng Youling?
Ye Qiu was a bit surprised, but he quickly relieved himself, Feng Youling and Wang Xuan were both the four young men of Jiangzhou, it was not strange at all that they were friends.
Feng Youling pulled open the rear car door like a slave and respectfully said, “Master Mo, please get off the car.”
Afterwards, an old man appeared in the crowd’s line of sight.
He was over sixty years old, short, with a hawkish nose and a long chin, like two hooks almost stuck together.
The old man was wearing a black robe, and after getting off the bus, he glanced at everyone present with his two small eyes.
When his gaze landed on Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu instantly felt chills all over his body and goosebumps rose all over his body.
At the same time, he also felt an eerie aura from the old man’s body.
“I’m afraid this old man is not a good person.”
Ye Qiu quietly raised his guard in his heart.
