God-tier Farm - Chapter 2374
[Chapter 2326: Serve the country with allegiance]
Of course, if Director Lu had chosen to work in the province according to Song Lao’s arrangement when Song Lao retired, his current achievements may be even higher. However, he is willing to do a good job in service guarantee for Mr. Song, so that now he only has an administrative level, but his real power is not as good as those leaders in important positions.
This is why Xia Ruofei has always respected Director Lu very much.
Director Lu was still approachable and smiling, he said with a smile: “Ruofei, you are a distinguished guest! The chief ordered me to greet you on his behalf, and it should be!”
“It’s too grand! It’s too grand!” Xia Ruofei said while handing the box of jade muscle ointment to Director Lu, and said with a smile, “A little care is a gift for auntie, not a respect!”
Director Lu would definitely not accept gifts from ordinary people, and he might criticize them severely, but Xia Ruofei gave it to him, and he didn’t even refuse, so he took it directly.
Director Lu smiled and said, “I won’t be polite to you anymore, Ruofei, let me thank you on behalf of your aunt!”
“Be careful, don’t worry about it!” Xia Ruofei smiled and said, “Wait for me, there are some gifts for Grandpa Song, I’ll go get them!”
“Let me help you!” Director Lu said.
“No need, I can do it myself!” Xia Ruofei said quickly.
He opened the trunk, took all the gift boxes in his hand, and said with a smile: “There are not many things, so I won’t work for you…”
“That’s fine! Let’s go in! The chief is thanking guests behind closed doors today, and he is waiting for you!” Director Lu said with a smile.
“I’m flattered!” Xia Ruofei smiled.
The two walked into the gate of the old house together, and walked directly towards the inner courtyard.
From time to time along the way, there were staff in a hurry, but when they saw Director Lu, they all stopped and said hello to Director Lu respectfully, and then continued to work.
When he came to the inner courtyard, Xia Ruofei saw Mr. Song in a white silk Tang suit, splashing ink in front of a book placed in the main room.
Under Xia Ruofei’s constant conditioning, the old man’s hair turned out to be completely black. Years of military service has allowed him to develop the habit of standing upright. Standing there with a wolf hair in his hand, he is like a commanding general on the battlefield, full of power .
People who are not familiar with the old man may even think that he is only fifty or sixty years old when they see him at first sight.
Xia Ruofei’s mental strength swept slightly, and he nodded secretly in his heart.
Song Lao’s physical condition is indeed very good. Not only does he look hale and hearty on the outside, but his internal organs are also full of vitality. Compared with his peers, he does not know how much stronger.
This is obviously the result of Xia Ruofei’s long-term “tonic” conditioning.
Xia Ruofei was very happy to see Elder Song in such a good condition—this pillar of the Republic, who once commanded thousands of troops, was also the senior general Xia Ruofei admired most when he first joined the army.
Xia Ruofei is willing to spare no effort to help Mr. Song, not only because the old man treats him as his own, and has no reservations about his kindness, but also because Xia Ruofei admires the old man’s life experience.
Xia Ruofei and Director Lu saw that Mr. Song was splashing ink with great interest, they unanimously lightened their steps, and walked slowly to the door of the main room, and did not go in again.
Mr. Song was obviously immersed in his creation, and he didn’t look up to look outside the door, only to see that he wrote four big characters in one go with his brush strokes – Serve the Country with Loyalty!
These four words are full of righteousness, and faintly reveal the aura of gold and iron horses. Every word penetrates the back of the paper, like a silver hook and iron painting.
The so-called handwriting is like a person, Song Lao has been a soldier all his life, and his handwriting also has a strong military atmosphere.
Elder Song put down his big wolf hair, and slowly looked at the four big characters he wrote. He seemed to be very satisfied, and he stroked his beard and smiled.
Then, he took a brush with a smaller size, dipped it in the ink, and prepared to write the signature.
Just as he was changing pens, from the corner of Song Lao’s eyes, he saw Xia Ruofei and Director Lu at the door, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
Song Lao put the brush back on the pen stand, and then smiled and said, “Ruofei is here! Come in quickly!”
Xia Ruofei walked into the main room with a smile on his face, and said, “Grandpa Song, did you bother you to write?”
“Aren’t I finished writing this?” Elder Song said with a smile, “It’s only one sign short of signing, no, the master is here, and I just finished signing it?”
Master? Xia Ruofei was a little dazed.
Director Lu at the side cast an envious look at Xia Ruofei, and then asked: “Chief, this picture… are you going to give it to Ruofei?”
Director Lu has always been working beside Mr. Song, so the degree of tacit understanding is naturally very high. Even Mr. Song doesn’t need to speak, he can understand the chief’s intention with just a look.
What’s more, Elder Song has made it very obvious just now.
Director Lu didn’t hide his envy in the slightest – this calligraphy is of a very high level in terms of calligraphy creation itself. It may be because of Xia Ruofei’s visit that Mr. Song was in a very good mood. This painting can be said to have been performed at a super level, better than most of Mr. Song’s past works.
In addition, the identity of the person who writes will also determine the value of a picture.
Especially Song Lao’s special status, and he seldom gives calligraphy to others, it can be said that Song Lao’s calligraphy is rarely circulated outside, and rare things are more expensive, so the preciousness of this calligraphy is naturally even more Upstairs.
Song Lao smiled slightly and said: “Yes! I just sent it out of a sudden feeling! It just happened that Ruofei came here. I feel good about writing this word, so I will give it to Ruofei! Haha! These four words … Let’s encourage each other!”
Xia Ruofei said happily: “Then thank you Grandpa Song! This is really a surprise!”
Xia Ruofei’s happiness is not pretended, the economic value of this word is meaningless to Xia Ruofei, but in Xia Ruofei’s eyes, this word cannot be measured by money.
A founding general he respected very much personally presented calligraphy, especially after he met Song Lao this time, it is very likely that the next time he returns to Earth, this old man is no longer alive. In this case, this calligraphy is particularly precious up.
“It’s just a random handwriting! It’s not that exaggerated!” Song Lao said cheerfully, “I’ll finish the signature first!”
After finishing speaking, Mr. Song picked up the small brush and wrote a few words on the right side: Give to Ruofei for mutual encouragement. And finally the date and his name.
When Mr. Song signed the signature, Director Lu had already stepped forward to open the seal box on the book, and prepared several seals that Mr. Song often used.
Just as Mr. Song put down the brush here, Director Lu picked up a seal and put it down squarely where Mr. Song pointed.
Then Elder Song personally went over and pressed gently, and the red seal was stamped on the picture.
Then there were several other seals, and Director Lu did the same, and soon several seals were printed on this piece of writing in an orderly manner.
This is a complete work, and it is the authentic work of Song Lao.
After Song Lao finished using the seal, he took another step back and admired his work with a smile on his face. He was obviously quite satisfied with the calligraphy.
Xia Ruofei stood aside, watching happily, and was in a good mood.
Elder Song turned to Director Lu and said, “Xiao Lu, you will go to Rongbao Zhai in person in a while, and ask the best master there to help you assemble the watch, and then send Ruofei to Liuhai Hutong courtyard.”
“Okay, chief!” Director Lu immediately responded.
Xia Ruofei quickly said: “Grandpa Song, you don’t need to bother Director Lu, I’ll just go about installing the watch myself.”

Elder Song said with a smile: “Let Xiao Lu go!”
Director Lu also smiled and said: “Ruofei, I am familiar with these things, and the real masters at Rongbaozhai seldom do it in person, so I have to go over to invite them. The calligraphy of the chief is very good. Gao, you can’t be sloppy with watch decoration, or you’ll ruin a good work!”
“It turns out that’s the case…that’s hard work for you!” Xia Ruofei said.
“No hard work! No hard work!” Director Lu said with a smile, “I just envy you!”
“You work next to Grandpa Song every day. There are many such opportunities. Don’t fight with me this time!” Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
“Okay, okay!” Director Lu was just joking, this was a gift from Mr. Song himself to Xia Ruofei, how could he really compete with Xia Ruofei?
Director Lu called the staff to clean up the table, and Song Lao called Xia Ruofei to sit down at the coffee table next to him. The two sat opposite each other by the tea tray, and Xia Ruofei intuitively took on the task of making tea.
While making tea, he said, “Grandpa Song, I’ve been busy with some chores these days, and I’m basically not in Huaxia, so I haven’t come to see you all this time. I’m really sorry…”
“It’s okay!” Song Lao waved his hand and said, “Young people should be like this! What does it mean to accompany an old man like me every day? Ruofei! I give you these four words to encourage you!”
Xia Ruofei couldn’t help but feel a little hot on his face. He was busy during this time, but it had nothing to do with “serving the country with allegiance”. He was busy improving his own strength.
But he thought about it again, how could he not serve the country by working so hard to improve his strength? In fact, the faster his strength improved, the more he put himself in danger, but he still did it without hesitation.
Although he doesn’t know the details, from the few words disclosed by Daoist Qingxuan, Xu Wentian and others, he also knows the crisis facing the Shenzhou cultivation world, and this crisis has already spread to the earth. The deterioration of the earth’s cultivation environment is a kind of which performed.
If the crisis is allowed to spread, the earth will completely become a practice desert, and there may be even greater dangers, and the earth’s cultivation world will be completely swept into the corner of history.
As for ordinary people in the secular world, if there is no skin left, how can the hair be attached?
Therefore, from this point of view, Xia Ruofei’s improvement of strength is actually an expression of serving the country, even bigger than this, it can be said that it is for all mankind, this is boundless love.
Elder Song smiled again and said, “Ruofei, do you know the origin of these four words?”
Xia Ruofei said respectfully: “I know, it should come from the allusion of the tattooed characters by my mother-in-law. The mother of the famous Song Dynasty general Yue Fei punctured these four characters on his back with embroidery needles, hoping that he will always serve the country as his ambition. Slowly and gradually misrepresented There is a song called “Serving the Country with Loyalty” which was widely circulated back then, so not many people knew about “Serving the Country with Loyalty”. Now there are many Yuewang Temples in the country, but only Tangyin And the Yuewang Temple in Hangzhou is written to serve the country with loyalty, and the others are to serve the country with loyalty.”
Song Lao stroked his beard and said with a smile: “Not bad! It seems that your historical knowledge is quite solid. Ruofei, I send you these four words, naturally I want you to learn from Yue Fei. Of course, this is a peaceful age , and our country is getting stronger and stronger, with killer weapons to deter any enemy, so you don’t have to be as tragic as Yue Fei who lived in the precarious age, but a heart to serve the country is a must! Anyone, only Only by remembering your own origin can you look forward to a farther future!”
Xia Ruofei listened to Song Lao’s words, as if hearing the evening drum and the morning bell. The old man is obviously an ordinary person without any cultivation, but he is full of righteousness, and the words he said deeply touched Xia Ruofei.
In Song Lao’s view, now is naturally a peaceful age, although there will be bloodshed and sacrifices, but it will not face a precarious situation.
However, Xia Ruofei felt completely different when hearing these words.
The cultivation world in Shenzhou is now facing a huge crisis, so why is it not like the era when Yue Fei lived? Even this kind of crisis is bigger and makes people feel powerless.
If he faced a powerful foreign enemy like Yue Fei, and there were various internal constraints, could he rely on his righteousness and not flinch even in the face of the danger of falling? Xia Ruofei couldn’t help asking himself.
Elder Song smiled and said, “Ruofei, these are just the old man’s nonsense words, I’ll just say it, you just listen to it, don’t take it to heart…”
Xia Ruofei said solemnly: “Grandpa Song, your words are thought-provoking and have greatly inspired and touched me. Don’t worry, I will definitely remember your teachings, no matter when and where, I will never forget the meaning of ‘serving the country with all my heart'” Four words!”
“Okay, okay!” Elder Song said very happily, “Your child is very savvy, and you can understand many things at a glance, which is much better than Xiaorui!”
Hearing this, Xia Ruofei couldn’t help laughing and said: “Grandpa Song, Xiao Rui is about to become a father, you can’t criticize him like that in the future… and in terms of becoming a father, he is at the forefront I’m ahead…”
“That kid…” Song Lao couldn’t help shaking his head with a wry smile when he mentioned Song Rui, the grandson who gave him a headache.
At this time, Director Lu walked in quickly, and whispered a few words in Elder Song’s ear, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
However, although his voice was small, Xia Ruofei could still hear it clearly – it wasn’t that Xia Ruofei wanted to eavesdrop on purpose, it’s because his hearing is so good now that it’s hard not to hear it…
