    I would say "We went to celebrate our team's victory." or "We went to celebrate our team winning an award." but not both together like that - if you particulary want to include both phrases then I'd say "Our team won an award so we went to celebrate their victory."

    A farewell letter, Please help me to revise it to be polite and nature.

    I have enjoyed this job during my tenure, and I appreciate having had the opportunity to work with you. Thank you for the support, guidance, and encouragement you have shown or given me during my time at this position.

    LRL <s>company</s> (you wouldn't normally use the word 'company' here unless it's actually a part of the official company name in which case it would need a capital 'C') is really a model of excellence in program management, professional ability, dedicated attitude, and team leadership which are objects worthy of recognition and learning. Thanks for your contribution to helping our country <s>to</s> boost its alternative energy industry capability.
    It’s a privilege for me to have a chance to engage with these important programs, in particular, it is significant and meaningful to me <s>who had been served</s> having previously worked in a power plant. I believe both Tai-Power <s>company</s> and Don <s>company</s> <s>got</s> gained experience and lessons from these programs.

    I may stay at the LR trading company as an agent for a while until I find a suitable position or job for myself. Please let me know if you come to visit Taiwan again. I would like to entertain you by <s>testing</s> taking you to sample authentic Chinese food here.

    Thanks again for everything. I wish you all the best.

    Hope that helps!

    I can understand the confusion! The meaning here is probably "(I'm) never not (ready)." - in other words, I'm always ready - but it's been abbreviated to "never not".

    100 Days Challenge. 4/100

    If there are any grammar mistakes and/or weird word choices, please correct them<s>, please</s>. Thanks.

    It is (going to be) windy all day today. This gale might bring spring, meaning <s>of this,</s> that the first strong wind at the end of winter tells us of the arrival of spring in my country. It is nice for me but I have one thing to worry about.

     My house which I rent is a bit old and the roof <s>has been</s> was damaged before I moved in. A part of the roof just above our living room flutters <s>when its</s> in heavy wind and also rain <s>is dropped as well</s> gets in. I knew this problem before I moved in but I don’t care about it because the view from the kitchen through the living room is amazing. The roof I can fix but the landscape I can’t.

    Hope that helps!

    Trying means they can be a little difficult, they 'try' (or test) your patience.

    Actually it's more typical to say 'male drivers', 'female pilots' rather than 'men drivers' etc. although people would understand you. The singular forms 'man driver' etc. sound even more out of place to a native.

    Antidote maker

    One night, <s>before</s> more than eight hundred and fifty years ago, a group of soldiers had come to the house of an old man from Waterford, looking urgently for his son Jakub.

    The old man was Darragh, an ancient knight, from an old family of Viking origin<s>s</s>, he was born in the city which <s>is</s> was founded by his predecessors, and he defended it since he was twelve, and that night was the turn of his youngest son.

    Darragh had many sons from two wives, three of them were knights as well. The youngest of his sons was Jakub, he was in his thirties, he never wanted to be a soldier, nor dreamed to be a knight as his stepbrothers. Jakub, was the only son of Darragh's second wife; he had three older sisters, two of them were (not married yet/single/still single/unmarried) <s>non-married yet</s>, and they were working <s>in</s> on their father's farms, the only source of sustenance <s>of all the big family</s> for the entire family.

    Jakub worked rarely <s>in</s> on the farms, he <s>had</s> preferred to work with his uncle in a silver refinery, and he learnt from his mom how to make different antidotes and perfumes; so he was sacrificing most of his time gathering different herbs and flowers which he used to make his antidotes and perfumes.

    Darragh had <s>a big</s> (great/much) confidence in his son, but all the town were looking to Jakub as he didn’t deserve to be the son of one of the greatest Waterford knights, as he cannot be like his stepbrothers. However, many of them changed their minds when they saw the efficiency of his antidotes against many hard diseases. And that night all the hopes were on (typically "all hope was on") Jakub.

    Joseph, the stiffest (if you mean 'strongest' here then 'stiff' isn't typical used to describe people) knight of Waterford, and the chief of its army, was sick; in the time when the city was prepar<s>ed</s>ing to fight the Normans. Joseph <s>he</s> had an unknown disease and he needed an antidote. The lord of Waterford gave Jakub a week to make it. And that night he <s>should</s> would give Joseph the antidote.

    After seven days and eight nights of hard work, Jakub went with the soldiers to Joseph's house taking with him the fruit of his hard work (typically "fruit(s) of his labour"). It <s>needed</s> took three days for Joseph to mostly recover and Jakub was named by the lord as the doctor of the army.

    Nice work! Hope the corrections are useful.
