Talk about calligraphy

"It's my birthday gift. What does it have to do with you?" Xiao Yifeng glanced at Wang Haoran unhappily.

"We're still students. Don't be so formal. Qin Yunhan and I came empty-handed, but you're giving us gifts. Aren't you trying to embarrass us?" Wang Haoran said.

"That's right. Zhaozhao is your granddaughter. It's normal for her to bring gifts. You're not Grandpa Mu's grandson. Why do you have to do this?" Qin Yunhan also agreed.

As students, they didn't have much financial ability. Even if they prepared gifts, they would use their parents' money to buy them. This was completely meaningless and showed no sincerity. They might as well not give anything.

Hearing Missy's words, Xiao Yifeng was in a dilemma.

If it was just Wang Haoran's opinion, Xiao Yifeng could ignore it. However, Missy also interfered. This put Xiao Yifeng in a difficult position.

If he insisted on giving the gift to Mu Cong, wouldn't that be slapping Missy's face?

"Young friend, I appreciate your kindness. I'm already very happy that you think so highly of an old man like me. You can take the gift back." Mu Cong tried to smooth things over.

"Then … alright." Xiao Yifeng felt wronged and had to take the gift back.

The reason why he wanted to give Mu Cong a birthday gift was mainly to gain the favor of Missy and Mu Zhaozhao.

If he insisted on giving a gift now, it would only make Missy angrier.

Wang Haoran received a wave of rewards as he wished.

At this moment.

Qin Kai came over with a smile. He congratulated Mu Cong and gave him a birthday gift.

Mu Cong quickly went up to greet him and chatted with him for a while.

Due to Qin Yunhan and Mu Zhaozhao's relationship, the two families were close. Qin Kai and Mu Cong's relationship was quite good.

After exchanging pleasantries with Mu Cong, Qin Kai walked towards his daughter.

"Is the dormitory comfortable?" Qin Kai chuckled and asked.

"Yes, it's very comfortable. I plan to stay here until I graduate." Qin Yunhan snorted.

In response, Qin Kai only chuckled.

She thought that Qin Yunhan was just saying it out of anger.

He knew his daughter too well. She had been pampered since she was young, and it was impossible for her to get used to living in the school dormitory.

It was only a matter of time before she returned to the small villa.

Qin Kai didn't believe that Qin Yunhan could survive until graduation.

"Master Mu's calligraphy is getting better and better."

"Such wonderful calligraphy, I think it's not an exaggeration to say that each word is worth a thousand gold."

"So what if a single word is worth a thousand gold? I think that in the future, his name will definitely be passed down through the ages."

.....

Some of Mu Cong's recent calligraphy works were hung in the banquet hall. Some of the guests who were interested in calligraphy started to talk while admiring them.

Mu Cong was a famous calligrapher in the current era. His calligraphy styles were varied. There were running script, cursive script, and regular script.

Among them, the one that people loved to talk about and admired the most was his running script.

"Sister Yunhan, let's go take a look." Mu Zhaozhao suggested.

She had been influenced by her grandfather's calligraphy since she was young, so she had a strong interest in calligraphy. However, she was a little lazy, so she didn't learn much.

But that didn't affect her interest in calligraphy at all.

"Sure."

Qin Yunhan nodded and walked with Mu Zhaozhao toward the hanging calligraphy in the banquet hall.

She wasn't interested in calligraphy, but from afar, the calligraphy looked very elegant and lively, so she wanted to take a look.

When Xiao Yi Feng saw the situation, he also followed over without any hesitation.

He wasn't interested in calligraphy at all, but he was very interested in Qin Yunhan and Mu Zhaozhao.

Qin Yunhan and Mu Zhaozhao admired the calligraphy, and from time to time, they would whisper some words of admiration.

Xiao Yifeng approached the two and interrupted.

"These words are really well written. As expected of a master."

"You country bumpkin, you haven't even studied for a few years. Don't tell me you know calligraphy?" Qin Yunhan said disdainfully.

"I haven't studied much, but I still know how to write. And I think my writing is pretty good." Xiao Yifeng boasted.

"Who would believe you?" Qin Yunhan curled her lips.

"Young friend, you know calligraphy too?" Mu Cong was nearby. After hearing Xiao Yifeng's words, he couldn't help but walk over and ask.

"Yes." Xiao Yifeng nodded. "But my calligraphy isn't written with a brush, but with a sword."

With Mu Cong's exquisite calligraphy here, Xiao Yifeng naturally didn't dare to show off his slight skill in front of an expert. Therefore, he wanted to use another method to display his talent.

He had practiced martial arts for many years and wielded a sword like an extension of his arm. Writing with a sword was no different from writing with a brush.

However, this was considered a consummate skill for an ordinary person.

Combined with his swordsmanship, it would definitely amaze everyone.

"Oh?!" Mu Cong was surprised.

He also knew some calligraphy peers. Among them, there were some who were unique and didn't use a brush to write calligraphy.

However, none of them used a sword to write calligraphy. When he heard Xiao Yifeng's words, he couldn't help but become interested and wanted to admire it.

"Old Master Mu, can you get me a sword? It can't be less than 15 kilograms. The heavier, the better." Xiao Yifeng made a special request.

Actually, to him, it didn't matter what kind of sword he used to write.

It was just that using a heavy sword seemed more difficult and prettier.

When Mu Cong heard that, he was even more surprised.

It would be difficult to hold such a heavy sword, let alone write with a heavy sword. That would be difficult.

Mu Cong was looking forward to Xiao Yifeng's performance even more.

"Alright, I …"

"Today is Grandpa Mu's birthday. It's a good day. Isn't it a little inauspicious to dance with a sword?" Wang Haoran purposely interrupted Mu Cong.

"This …" Mu Cong hesitated.

The older he got, the more particular he became.

It was indeed not a good sign to have swords and sabers at a birthday banquet.

"It's just sword dancing and calligraphy. It's not a fight. What's so inauspicious about it?" Xiao Yifeng looked at Wang Haoran and was very displeased.

"He's not your Grandpa. Of course you don't think it's anything," Qin Yunhan was very displeased with Xiao Yifeng and couldn't help but help Wang Haoran talk back to him.

"Grandpa, I also don't think sword dancing is appropriate. Let's forget about it. If you really want to demonstrate calligraphy, using a pen is the same." Mu Zhaozhao cared more about her Grandpa, so she also tried to persuade him.

"That's true." Mu Cong saw that his precious granddaughter had spoken, so he immediately dismissed the idea of letting Xiao Yifeng demonstrate calligraphy.

He looked at Xiao Yifeng and said,

"Young friend, how about using a pen instead of a sword?"

"I'm used to using a sword to write calligraphy. I can't find the feeling of using a pen. Let's just forget about it." Xiao Yifeng found an excuse, but as he spoke, he stared at Wang Haoran a few times in a bad mood.

[Ding! Host stopped the main character Xiao Yifeng from showing off. Received 200 Villain Points. Xiao Yifeng's Protagonist Aura -10. Host's Villain Aura + 10!]

Wang Haoran received a wave of rewards and felt very satisfied.

Then, he took a few steps forward and glanced at the calligraphy works around him. Suddenly, he praised, "You're right.

"Grandpa Mu's calligraphy is so profound that it's a unique style. I'm really impressed."

"Haoran, you know calligraphy too?" Mu Cong couldn't help but ask.

"I wouldn't dare to say that I know anything in front of a master." Wang Haoran humbly said and then changed the topic.

"However, I also dabbled in calligraphy. For example, I've copied the works of the Four Great Calligraphers, the Four Great Calligraphers of the Song Family, as well as those calligraphers who had mastered the cursive and semi-cursive script. I think I've learned the essence at least a thousand times.
