Elyette: “It’s serious?”
Gwen: “I know if Gwen will be good on the day of the competition. I plan to go on stage to give her flowers.”
After hearing his words, Elyette remembered a piece of news he saw two days ago.
“There is a kind of tree in this world. I forgot the name of the tree. It is the only one of its kind. It is a male tree and has lived for more than 100 years. Because the female tree has died out, so there is no way for this kind of tree to reproduce. But this male tree that has lived for more than 100 years still blooms and courtes each year…”
Ben Schaffer listened to his voice and savored the story he told, horrified and startled. Got goosebumps all over.
Ben: “Elyette, I beg you not to talk about it. Why does it sound like a horror story when you say something so good.”
Elyette laughed loudly: “That tree has been single for more than 100 years, you’re much luckier than that tree.”
Ben Schaffer snorted coldly, “I knew that your ultimate goal was to hurt me. Just do your best to hurt me. When I finish my single life, you won’t have a chance.”
Elyette: “So confident?”
“I’m not 100% sure. I’m only half sure.” Ben Schaffer said frankly, “You little sister, you don’t play cards according to common sense. I can’t guess what she’s thinking every time, and I also guess. I don’t know what she has to say next.”
“That’s why I got you hooked.” Elyette teased.
“I’m not fascinated. After all, I don’t even touch my hands. What’s wrong with it.” Ben Schaffer laughed at himself, “Maybe it’s because I met true love. I’m just platonic to her now… “
Elyette: “Didn’t she agree to fall in love with you? You call it unrequited love.”
“D*mn it. You brother and sister are trying to kill me. You don’t understand me at all.” Ben Schaffer felt that Elyette was too bitter.
“I understand. Don’t you just get older, and your desire in that area has diminished, so you started to seek mental stimulation?” Elyette said.
Ben Schaffer felt guilty and hung up the phone angrily. He didn’t expect Elyette’s mouth to be so poisonous, not only poisonous, but also terrifying.
This weekend, Averie bought red paper and came back. She planed to ask Elyette to write couplets and blessings.
Elyette has been recuperating at home for a while, occasionally practicing calligraphy.
She once saw his calligraphy and was shocked. She felt that the couplets and blessings of this year’s Spring Festival could be contracted by him.
“Buying so much red paper?” Elyette was puzzled.
“You can write a few more copies, and we can take them as gifts.” Averie made her plan early, “Brother Wesley invited us to eat dumplings at his house tomorrow, and then give him two copies. “
Elyette: “Averie, are you sure that my level can reach the level of gift-giving?”
Averie: “Of course I can. As long as you don’t show off in front of real calligraphers, others won’t see you as an amateur at all.”
Elyette couldn’t help laughing.
Averie cut red paper abd Elyette prepared pen and ink.
Robert watched the excitement with his big eyes that were as crystal clear as gems.
“Elyette, I found some couplets on the Internet, let’s see how they go.” After cutting a few couplets, she brought her phone over and showed him, “I think this is pretty good…”
–The flowers of the sunrise river are red like fire, and the river water is green like blue in spring: Birds chirping and flowers fragrant.
“Ahh..this one is also good.” Averie read it to him, “Red plums are proud of winter snow, and green willows spew catkins to welcome the new year…”
Elyette frowned slightly: “This pair has too many strokes.”
Averie: “I thought you could write anything.”
Elyette: “You can write, but it’s another time whether you can write well or not. It’s a matter.”
Averie: “Then you write first, what if it looks good?”
“Since you have spoken, then I can only be respectful rather than obedient.” Elyette tidy up the table, then picked up the red paper and began to fold the grid.
Averie stood next to him and was amused, “You seem to be writing couplets with your skillful technique.”
Elyette: “It’s fake. Actually, I’m very nervous.”
He practiced calligraphy purely to cultivate his sentiments to take his words to give away.
“Haha, then I’ll let you relax.” Averie said, picked up a writing brush and a piece of white, and wrote the words ‘Elyette’ on the paper.
Because she can’t write with calligraphy at all, so she can imagine how ugly she writes.
“Thank you.” Elyette put the surprise into his stomach, “I really relax a lot.”
“Hahaha! You teach me how to fold a grid, and I’ll help you.” Averie put down the brush and wrote “Elyette” just now. He handed Robert a large piece of waste paper, “This is your father’s name, you have to remember it!”
Elyette taught her origami.
After Averie met, Elyette picked up the brush and began to write the first couplet.
The flowers of the Sunrise River are as red as fire, and in the spring the river is as green as blue. He likes this couplet very much. He plans to keep it for his own use after he finishes writing it.
Elyette finished writing on one side, then put what he had written aside, picked up another blank red piece of paper, and wrote another sentence.
Averie concentrated on watching him write.
Elyette’s serious look was very charming.
“Husband, your writing is so beautiful. You are as handsome as you are.” Averie couldn’t help but praise, “I will give this couplet to Brother Wesley when the time comes.”
“Okay, it’s up to you.” He was praised ecstatic.
After writing the couplets, Averie carefully held the two couplets in front of them, intending to enjoy them and put them aside to dry.
The result—
Averie looked at the small dark handprints on the couplet, and everyone was stunned. She immediately looked at Robert and took a breath.
“Son, how can you put ink on your face?” Elyette was not angry when he saw that the couplet was destroyed.
But looking at Robert’s little black hands, his clothes full of black ink stains, and his mottled little black face, his brows suddenly wrinkled.
“I haven’t looked at you for a few minutes, why did you get the ink?” Averie walked up to Robert and undressed him, “How did you get the ink? I didn’t see you crawling on the table.”
Robert understood what his mother said, and pointed his little hand to the side.
On a chair next to it, there was a bottle of ink.
Elyette explained, “I took it out when I was looking for ink, but I forgot to put it in. I don’t blame my son.”
“You are protecting your shortcomings. I don’t know how he unscrewed the cap of the ink bottle.” Averie took off Robert. After taking off Robert, she immediately took him to take a bath.
Elyette looked at the mess his son created and shook his head.
He don’t know if Hayden was so naughty when he was a child, but Robert was visibly upset.
The next day, Averie and Elyette came to Wesley’s house with their three children as guests.
Averie took out the couplet written by Elyette and showed it to Wesley.
Averie: “Elyette wrote it, isn’t it nice?”
Wesley nodded: “It’s not bad, it looks like that.”
Averie was a little puzzled when she got this evaluation: “Is it just ‘not bad’? I think it’s very good”
Wesley looked at her puzzled expression, pointed to a calligraphy and painting on the wall, and asked, “What do you think of the calligraphy and painting on the wall?”
Averie glanced at the wall, and immediately exclaimed: “The clouds and flowing water, the dragon and the phoenix dance, belongs to the kind of master level that I can’t understand, but it is very powerful at first glance.”
Wesley: “This is written by my father.”
“Wow! Uncle is so powerful.” Averie’s cheeks were flushed, and she suddenly wanted to take back the couplet she sent out.
She had known Wesley for so long, and she had never heard him say that his father had such high attainments in calligraphy.
“What are you talking about?” Nolan came over and asked with a smile.
Averie: “Uncle, Wesley said that the calligraphy and painting on the wall is your work. You are amazing!”
Nolan smiled, “Wesley is better than me. He is not only good at calligraphy, but also very good at painting. He always wanted to learn art, But I forced him to study medicine.”
