Chapter 393

"Miss, you're back."

As soon as Liu Xin entered the hall, several maids came over and shouted with smiles.

Liu Xin took off her coat, handed it to the maid, and then asked, "Where is my grandfather?"

"The master is practicing calligraphy in the study." The maid replied.

Liu Xin nodded, went to the kitchen to get some bird's nest porridge, and then walked into the study.

At this time, in the study, an old man with half white hair and beard was holding a brush and writing cursive script on a yellowed wooden board. Every stroke was as vigorous as a dragon and snake, as if he had the level of a grammar master. Even Liu Xin, who didn't know calligraphy, felt like he was observing a work of art when looking at this line of text.

It is hard to imagine that a person who is busy with family affairs all year round can achieve such accomplishments by practicing in his spare time. Liu Xin also looked at the old man and smiled: "Grandpa, you are really a rare genius. You have become a calligraphy master in your spare time!"

"Come on, take a break and drink some bird's nest porridge."

The old man looked up at Liu Xin and nodded with satisfaction. He took the bird's nest porridge, put the wooden board aside, and drank the porridge.

"Girl, I'm not a genius. Look at my board. The middle of the wood is swollen from soaking. If I didn't have this perseverance, how could I have such a pleasing work you see now?"

"So, there is no shortcut in this world, no matter how talented you are. If there is no time, accumulation of experience, and repeated efforts to get up from the bottom, it will be just a flash in the pan like Zhongyong. You are very smart and should understand what grandpa means."

"So why do I put you in an ordinary school and ask you to start from the grassroots? You should understand grandpa's conscience, right?" The old man said earnestly.

But he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

Family affection is often precious in this wealthy family, but it is different in the Liu family. The younger generations in their family are harmonious and orderly, and they don't have much desire to fight for the family property. To put it bluntly, they are just lying flat, which has also led to the Liu family's business development in recent years. Liu Xin's brothers have basically been smoothed out by the rich life, and they are just lying at home and eating up all the money, so he can only place high hopes on Liu Xin, a granddaughter who is still somewhat spiritual.

Liu Xin nodded upon hearing this. She could feel the old man's eager expectation for her from his tone. However, after thinking about it, she said, "Grandpa, maybe you are right, but I really met a genius today. He is only in his twenties, but his achievements have reached the highest position in China. It can be said that if we get his help, our family can easily become the first family in China. Alas, it's just a thought. It's impossible for a person like him to have any intersection with us."

Liu Xin couldn't help but feel a little dazed when she said this, because she still couldn't fully believe what she had just seen.

The old man was stunned when he heard this, and his hand paused for a moment, but he continued to drink the porridge and chuckled:

"Xiao Xin, what did you say? In her twenties, what do you mean you are the best in China, and can lead our family to become the first family? Did I hear it right? Is today a festival? Haha, you young people like to joke with me, an old man..."

In his opinion, this little granddaughter must be playing some tricks on him again.

Seeing his grandfather's disapproving expression, Liu Xin hurriedly explained: "Grandpa, it's true. Today, I went out to eat with some friends from other families, and then I ran into a high school classmate. His uncle and aunt were also there at the time. Out of politeness, I invited them to eat together... Guess what happened, and then a few plainclothes officers came to the store, and someone recognized them. They turned out to be a few one- and two-star dragon generals. Everyone tried to curry favor with the dragon generals, but the dragon generals declined everyone and walked straight to my classmate's uncle, bent over and respectfully called out: Ye Longjiang!"

"It was not until this moment that we realized with horror that the young man in his early twenties was the only five-star dragon general in China, Ye Qing!"

Liu Xin's emotions became more and more excited, and he vividly described the scene at that time.

"Puff..."

The old man sprayed a mouthful of bird's nest on the desk.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"Grandpa, drink slowly, did you choke?" Liu Xin hurriedly patted the old man on the back.

The old man waved his hands, shook his head, and said unhappily: "I didn't choke, I was scared by you, girl."

The old man wiped the table with a tissue, threw the bird's nest aside, glanced at Liu Xin, and sighed: "Hey, you girl, you still didn't listen to me, I told you to be a good person.The principle of being down-to-earth, you made up a story about a five-star dragon general in his twenties. Do you think the position I arranged for you is not satisfactory? Young man, don't be too ambitious! How old are you this year? In your twenties. When I was your age, I was still working outside as a salesperson. Now I have arranged for you to be a sales supervisor, which is already outstanding among your peers. Therefore, I still hope that you can think more about the principle that grandpa just said. I also suggest that you practice calligraphy and be modest..."

"Grandpa, what I said is true! He really was conferred a five-star dragon general in his twenties, but few people know this. There is no relevant information on the Internet. It is probably blocked." Liu Xin said helplessly.

She really had no words to say. She originally wanted to share her feelings at the moment with grandpa, but she didn't expect that in return, she would be criticized by grandpa, who thought she was lying.

"Okay, don't say it. What about being conferred a five-star dragon general in his twenties? Have you read too many novels? In reality, let alone at the age of 20, he would not be able to be named a five-star dragon general even if he was 200 years old. You don't understand these things. It is common sense that five-star dragon generals will not be named in peacetime. Go back. I don't want to hear this story anymore. "Old Master Liu waved his hand and ordered him to leave.

Liu Xin also knew that the old man had a stubborn temper and it was difficult to change his mind, so he got up angrily, left the study, and prepared to go back to his room to rest.

"The Liu family's mansion is getting more and more magnificent."

"Miss Liu Xin, do you still remember us? "

Liu Xin suddenly turned around and found that several guests had come to the hall, and she happened to know them. Aren't they the dragon generals she met at Taide Roast Duck just now?

At this time, the nanny also came over and said that these people were friends of yours.

Liu Xin nodded and said hurriedly, somewhat flattered: "I really didn't expect that several dragon generals would visit my humble home. I was just chatting with the old man. I really didn't entertain them well. Sit down quickly. Xiaoju, go get some Huangshan Maofeng..."
