Chapter 1383: Host
Song Tan racked her brains for a gift.
To be honest, her first reaction was to give a jade pendant as well.
She herself was wearing the peach pendant with a touch of spicy green, clear and translucent, that Lu Chuan gave her. After wearing it for a few months, the texture, which was already clear and gelatinous, now seemed to contain a pool of water.
It is different from the "fluorescence" and "steel light" spoken of in conventional jadeite; it really looks like a pool of water. That is the manifestation of spiritual energy gathering inside. Wearing it for a long time can truly nourish the body.
It's not impossible to give one that has been nourished to Lu Chuan.
She even had plans for her family members.
However, since everyone has one, giving it as a gift seems a bit insincere.
And with her current ability, it takes a period of time from selection to the goods being sent back. And the remaining month is not enough for her to nourish the jade pendant to any extraordinary state.
What's more, with Lu Chuan's eye, he knows exactly what quality can be obtained for how much money. In this kind of jewelry transaction, buyers have always been the ones to suffer big losses, and I have never heard of sellers being confused.
Using it to fool people is too insincere.
She thought and thought—ancient books?
She had many of those in her previous life, but now only novels and textbooks are left in her room.
Electronic products? Lu Chuan is someone who never treats himself poorly; his daily food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all the most comfortable and fitting within his ability.
Song Tan looked at Lu Chuan, who was pruning the residual flowers of the first wave of blue snow flowers, and suddenly had an idea.
Although more than a month is also a bit tight, Lu Chuan knows exactly what little tricks she has in farming, so it can work!
She hurried back to her room to prepare online, and on this side, Chen Chi finally waited for off-duty time.
That set of model gift boxes given by Yang Zhengxin was carefully moved into his room by him, and he even wiped the table again and again. Chen Xi came in and looked at it with interest:
"This needs to be assembled according to the drawings, do you need my help?"
Chen Chi shook his head decisively: "No, no, I told Qiao Qiao, we two will compete to assemble it! But we won't assemble it these two days, these two days we have to play with Yang Zhengxin, we are the hosts, we have to entertain him well."
Chen Xi was a bit surprised: "You know what a host is now?"
"Of course I know!" Chen Chi said proudly: "Teacher Xin just finished the exam—Brother, did you not look at my test paper carefully?"
Xin Jun didn't require these test papers to be signed by parents, but Chen Xi and Chen Chi didn't spend much time together before, so in order to cultivate feelings, it was inevitable to ask more questions, and taking the initiative to look at Chen Chi's papers was something he proposed himself.
But these papers involved more comprehensive literature, history, and math problems. As an adult who feels tired even reading the questions, knowledge flows out of his brain every day, and he soon stopped looking at them carefully.
Chen Xi had to admit that he no longer had the ability to read long texts.
In short, the brother's face cannot be lost.
So he cleared his throat: "Of course I looked, I was just surprised you could remember—come, tell me what it means?"
Chen Chi didn't have the ability to remember everything at a glance, and now he could only remember a part: "Host, comes from the Spring and Autumn period's 'Zuo Zhuan', it tells about when fighting, the Zheng state, as the master on the eastern road, entertained the envoys of the Qin state..."
Chen Xi didn't know if it was right.
This is the influence of the living environment. Everyone knows that "host" means the master who wants to entertain guests, but they don't know the source and the specifics.
Now that Chen Chi can remember these, he is already stronger than him. Although hearing this, it seems he doesn't remember it completely...
But because he doesn't know it himself, he can only nod seriously. Waiting for Chen Chi to run away happily, he quickly flipped out the test paper and sent a message to Xin Jun:
"Teacher Xin, Chen Chi is learning such profound cultural knowledge now?"
Xin Jun was a bit surprised. After understanding the cause and effect, he couldn't help but laugh: "It's not that exaggerated, it's just that sometimes they hear vocabulary they don't understand in our daily words. If they ask me in class, I will take the opportunity to let them learn and memorize it..."
"And, for Chen Chi and Qiao Qiao, being able to understand other people's words is the most important thing—you don't think this is an innate ability. In fact, if you communicate with people in society for a few more years, you will find that many people actually don't have the ability to understand others."
Chen Xi really hadn't noticed this!
Really or fake?
However, Chen Chi's current appearance is all Teacher Xin's credit, and he has no intention of questioning it. At this moment, he asked about the textbooks and books Chen Chi needs next, and then breathed a sigh of relief—
Anyway, the pressure of facing the teacher is still a bit high!
And Qiao Qiao and Yang Zhengxin gathered together to watch another episode of "Chinese Kids". The two of them made a mess on the rooftop terrace, and then they saw Chen Chi running over from afar.
Yang Zhengxin lay on the terrace and looked from afar: "Wow, he even brought flowers! Quite romantic!"
Qiao Qiao also leaned over: "What flowers? Didn't see clearly."
Chen Chi had long legs and ran all the way, only seeing the flowers in his arms. Before he could see the details clearly, he had already climbed up the stairs.
And at this moment, Yang Zhengxin turned around on the terrace and saw Chen Chi had already handed over the flowers in his arms.
His eyes were not big, his face was slightly square, and his skin was dark.
But only the sincerity and enthusiasm in his spirit could not be replaced by any handsome face.
At this moment, Chen Chi was panting, but still enthusiastically said: "Yang Zhengxin, I don't have any other gifts for you, so I just wove a flower basket for you after work—everyone on TV loves to give this, do you like it?"
It was a small, exquisite flower basket woven from willow twigs, filled with a cluster of freshly withered white lotus shoots, along with a large pile of flowers from the riverbank—water caltrop flowers from the water, edelweiss from the shore, dandelions from the meadow, and large patches of speedwell from the corners of the walls...
Especially the speedwell, which grows creeping on the ground, the color is sky blue, but the flowers fall at a touch, and Yang Zhengxin had touched more than ten flowers today when he had nothing to do!
He is most familiar with this kind of flower, his mother used it to stick on her nails!
Now, these speedwells are piled on the green leaves, but they haven't fallen yet!
Yang Zhengxin can boast that he is a man!
Except for giving flowers to his mother during holidays, he sneers at those who give flowers for puppy love in class!
But now, looking at the flower basket in his arms without any expensive flowers, he grinned and showed a big smile: "Beautiful! I like it!"
Then he started putting the flower basket left and right in the sunset: "Move, move, I'll post a circle of friends to show off... wait, don't go far, let's take a group photo later!"
He was not polite at all, and at this moment shouted loudly to downstairs: "Lu Ge! Lu Ge! Help us take a photo!" ===== CHAPTER 1384 =====
