Painting Tang

In order to be able to go to Tang this weekend, I will secretly update a chapter late at night!

"Are you going to deliver...?"

Zou Weiyi was a little hesitant, but was held back by Zou Yueyin,

"If he wants to deliver it, let him go. It just so happens that we go back early, so that the bowl for your elder sister Jinyu won't get cold."

"I'm holding it and it's still hot!"

Zou Weiyi has long been dissatisfied with Zou Yueyin's behavior of doting on beauties, but he can't find anything wrong, because Yutang and Miss Jinyu are both kind and hard-working people, and they both deserve to be treated sincerely.

"Miss, young master, remember to bring the invitation to Master Zou and his wife."

Seeing that the two of them were going to get in the car, the steward hurriedly followed and gave instructions. The invitations designed by Mu Jingchen were very luxurious. King butterfly out of paper.

"Got it, you can go back... Hey, why is this ink still printed on my hand?"

Zou Yueyin raised the window and looked suspiciously at the ink stains on his palms. The steward shrugged and watched them leave wordlessly.

Although this invitation was prepared long ago, the content and handwriting were just filled in. Of course, it hasn't had time to dry it out yet.

Yu Mian carried the lotus root powder all the way through the garden and courtyard without seeing anyone, and finally heard the human voice when she touched the living room on the first floor of the Western-style building based on her impression.

"You old man doesn't know how to hold a pen so don't make trouble, what do you write?"

Zhou Wei slapped Mu Huaiyi on the head with a stick, and muttered to him disgustedly, "I'm so used to holding a gun that I forgot how to write characters. If you sprinkle a piece of rice on paper, a chicken can crawl better than you."

"At that time, I used a soft brush to write cursive script. Do you understand cursive script?"

Not to be outdone, Mu Huaiyi simply threw away the pen in his hand and sat down on the sofa in anger, "As long as the words express the meaning, it's fine if people can understand it?"

"This is the invitation card for the children's wedding. You can rewrite those for me."

Zhou Wei pressed the red paper in her hand, and she wrote each word carefully, with beautiful and beautiful fonts, but because the writing was too slow, it took a full 10 minutes to write a letter. Compared with her, Mu Huaiyi wrote it although Very fast, but the handwriting is a little scribbled.

"Why don't you two take a break first? Yu Tang and I can finish writing."

Mu Jingchen and Yu Tang squatted side by side on the ground on the other side of the tea table, and they kept writing the wedding invitations. Suddenly, the printing factory had to queue for three days to start work. But their family is self-sufficient by handwriting.

"It's already our fault to let Teacher Yu write the wedding post by himself. Let your mother and I go to sleep now? Can you feel at ease?"

Mu Huaiyi is in good spirits at the moment, he and Mu Jingchen often stay up for days and nights on the front line, and after Yutang took out the treasure house at home to rescue Mu Jingchen, the old man is even more partial to him, wishing to be his own son Hold it in your hand, turn your elbow straight towards Yu Tang.

"You've just added to the mess here."

Mu Jingchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but the old man was happy, so he didn't stop him. At worst, he would stay a little longer and rewrite the old man's paper.

"Brother, Brother Mu, this person's name is missing in the phone book, which word should it be?"

Lian Yu Xueer was also forced to work as a coolie, lying on the floor beside her to help write the invitation. She was not familiar with the guests who were going to be entertained, so she could only copy from the list, and had to ask carefully when encountering uncertain words. Dare to write up.

"I'll take a look."

Mu Jingchen took the notebook in her hand naturally, wrote the name of the person on the waste paper at the side, and then handed it back to her. When Yu Xueer went back to copy it, she suddenly laughed to herself, sighing road,

"It feels like we're a small family workshop."

"Isn't that good? Few families can be like ours... Are you hungry? I'll ask the kitchen to make some supper."

Zhou Wei looked up with a smile, and met Yu Mian who was standing outside the door quietly watching all this. She paused for a moment, then smiled lovingly, beckoned Yu Mian to come in,

"Why is this kid standing outside? Come in and sit together."

Yu Tang and Yu Xueer raised their heads when they heard the sound, Yu Mian looked at Yu Tang indifferently, shook the box containing the soup in his hand, Yu Tang closed the pen and came out, Yu Xueer wanted to follow, but was caught by Mu Jingchen Gently stop.

"Have you had enough for dinner?"

Yu Tang spoke first, raising her hand to help Yu Mian remove the dead leaves stuck to her head, but this time Yu Mian took half a step back slightly,

"Brother is getting married, so he should pay attention...to avoid suspicion."

"..."

Yu Tang could tell that he was not acting out of anger, so she gave a helpless laugh, and took a step forward to pat off the dirt on his hair,

"You are my younger brother, a brother who has no heart and no shame, who else should I avoid when I treat you well?"

"I remember you love lotus root noodles."

Yu Mian said and stuffed the lotus root powder that had shaken to a little sticky and precipitated into Yu Tang's hands, "Don't worry, brother, I will stay in the room they prepared for me these few days, and Zou Yueyin booked five for me. The boat ticket for the morning of the second day of the month."

Yu Mian paused, then added,

"I want to go back to Enyi, to our home."

"I see."

Yu Tang knew that he would not be able to keep him, and what he could do now was to help him arrange his life in Enyi.

"I'm not going to your big wedding, and I have nothing to say. I don't know if my brother still remembers a person named Tong Qiqiao. Can you send her an invitation?"

"It's for her."

After all, if it wasn't for Tong Qiqiao, Yu Tang might have been hurt more severely by Yu Mian's hands, which made Yu Mian even more unable to turn back.

"Then I'm going back to my room. Eat the lotus root noodles while it's hot."

Yu Mian took a deep look at the brightly lit room surrounded by the pleasant smell of ink, which is the smell that only places that can be called home can have.

Too bad it's not his.

It's like he still doesn't want to accept it, but he has to admit that his brother is like a light, and he can be a light, almost selflessly treating him well, but he is not the one who should be illuminated by this light.

He is like a bottle that wants to contain all this light and enjoy it alone. It is thick and deep, but it is full of cracks. Although it is warmed, it still leaks all over the place in the end, and it can't contain anything.

"Thank you...Xiao Mian."

Yu Tang had mixed feelings in his heart, and the temperature of lotus root powder penetrated through the thin bowl, scalding his fingers sorely.

"Chicken soup is hot in the kitchen, and I'll have someone deliver a bowl to Yu Mian later."

Zhou Wei smiled softly, and called Mu Jingchen to take Yutang back into the house. Seeing that Yutang was not in a good mood, Mu Huaiyi wanted to say something to make him happy, but was afraid that there would be a generation gap with him and he would not be able to come up with an idea. Thinking and uttering a clumsy jest,

"In the future, if the two of you want to coax your children, you can grab the little grandson of the Zou family. Zou Yueyin is not sure about that girl, but Zou Weiyi definitely likes girls. Maybe you are the only one in your generation who has a little Zou Youhou, haha, think about it." very scary."

Mu Jingchen: "..."

Yu Tang: "..."

"Is the dead old man sick, which pot is not open and which pot to carry."

Zhou Wei stomped on him hard, then quickly explained to Yu Tang with a smile,

"Xiao Yu, don't take it to heart. Uncle Mu and I are very open-minded. We don't care about anything that never ends. Hey, girl Xue, see if you have spelled the word wrong again?"

"Uh, yes, yes, I'll rewrite it...Brother, can you teach me how to write this word? It's too scribbled in the phone book and I can't read it clearly."

Yu Xueer tactfully changed the subject. Fortunately, neither Mu Jingchen nor Yu Tang seemed to really take the words to heart. In addition, the task of transcribing the wedding invitation was arduous, and the four of them soon immersed themselves in In the sound of rustling strokes.

In the twinkling of an eye, it was the second day of May, and in the midst of spring, when the flowering period was crowded, the begonias in the courtyard were blooming in layers, making the spring breeze a light sweet color.

The golden tiles of the happy sedan chair, the ten miles of red makeup, and the red firecrackers exploded around the base of the Yulin city wall. A flower road runs through Yulin from north to south.

The children in the city who had time to spare curiously gathered on the street in front of Mu's house to watch the fun. What impressed people the most was not the magnanimity of the wedding banquet, but the fact that the rumored Mu family army who had never been defeated came here in person. , accompanied by Mu Jingchen, the mighty army carried Yu Tang back from Zou's house all the way back to Mu's house.

Because Yu's family is far away in Enyi and is still being repaired, Zou Yueyin and Zou Weiyi offered to be Yutang's natal family. With their well-known Zoujia Township, they would be able to avoid a lot of criticism if they wanted to come to Yutang.

On his own initiative, Yu Tang cut down a lot of red tape and etiquette. When he heard Mu Jiajun's resounding "Hello, sister-in-law" and "Hello, sister-in-law" before entering the gate of Mu's house, he couldn't help but feel glad that he finally left his head behind. The veil on the head, otherwise the smile is too unrestrained, and if someone looks at him, he should say that he is a villain.

According to the local custom, Mu Jingchen and Yutang have to stay in the east and west compartments separately after the entrance, and they can only be sent to the same bridal chamber after the banquet at the auspicious time. The rest of the time was reserved for Yu Tang to rest, Yu Xueer had been waiting for him in the room, and when she came, she asked Yu Tang if her feet were tired, the wedding shoes seemed difficult to wear.

"It didn't touch the ground at all, what's the matter?"

Yu Tang smiled, Mu Jingchen carried him firmly on his back all the way, and sometimes he would change his position and be hugged in his arms when he was tired. Mu Jingchen walked more steadily than a sedan chair, it was true None bumped him.

"It's fine if you don't get tired. There is a sister named Tong outside who said she has something to do with you. I asked her to wait in the backyard. Brother, do you know someone?"

Yu Xueer was even more nervous than Yu Tang, for fear that someone who still hadn't given up on Mu Jingchen would try to murder Yu Tang.

Yu Tang immediately remembered that Yu Mian specifically mentioned that she wanted Tong Xiqiao to come to the banquet, told Yu Xueer not to worry, and then sneaked out of the back door of the wing with a heavy wedding dress, and she really saw it Tong Qiqiao was squatting in a corner, not knowing what he was doing.

"Teacher Yu!"

Tong Qiqiao heard the movement and turned around, holding a small gray cat with different eyes and long hair in her arms. When she saw Yu Tang, she looked up and down and sighed,

"You... why can't you give me some... Sigh!"

Tong Qiqiao praised Yu Tang before thinking about the business, and quickly brought the kitten in his arms to Yu Tang,

"Teacher Yu, do you like it? I haven't named it yet, I'll wait for Teacher Yu to name it."

"What a beautiful kitten...!"

Yu Tang couldn't bear the temptation of this soft little thing, she touched it twice, "Are you going to give it to me?"

"It's not me, it's not me,"

Tong Xiqiao shook his head like a rattle,

"Yu Mian asked me to help find it, and he asked me to give it to you today. This kitten is unique and clingy! Teacher Xiao Yu must take good care of it!"

Yu Tang took a deep breath, Yu Mian was allergic to cat fur, so even if he liked these little things before, he didn't dare to get close to them, for fear that if he got the fur on his body, he would make Yu Mian feel uncomfortable... I grew up with this kind of heart.

"Mr. Xiao Yu, why didn't Yu Mian give it to you? Is he afraid of kittens? But I didn't see him today."

Tong Xiqiao blinked her eyes. She searched everywhere when she arrived early in the morning, but she didn't see Yu Mian anywhere. Although she was frightened by being cut by Yu Mian inexplicably before, her curiosity about Yu Mian was more than fear after all. of.

"he's returned home."

Yu Tang replied slowly, and at the same time gently took the kitten from Tong Xiqiao's hand, "Trouble Tong girl, Mu Zhai is too big to get lost, I will let Xueer take you later."

"Hey, good."

Tong Qiqiao seems to understand but not understand, Yu Mian's home?where is that?Is it the Mu family?Or the little broken house in the slum?When she was puzzled, a gust of wild wind passed through the shadow of the flowers and lifted her skirt heavily. Tong Qiqiao's thoughts were interrupted and she was forced to grab the corner of her skirt. She only felt that the wind carried moist water vapor. , as if blown from the sea.

Yulingang Wharf.

As the sailing time approached, the strong sea breeze blew up the yellow sails, and Zou Yueyin raised her hand to clasp the little leather cap on top of her head. She would go to a banquet later, so she couldn't be disturbed by the wind. hair.

"I didn't expect you to come see me off."

Yu Mian stood on the side of the boat, condescendingly looking down at Zou Yueyin on the pier.

"Write a letter if you have something to do. It's best if you don't have anything to do. I think your brother stuffed a lot of bank notes for you. Just don't lose them."

Zou Yueyin sighed with a smile, and waved at Yu Mian, "Yu Tang is still willing to regard Enyi Yu's family as her mother's family in her heart, so stay there when you go back, don't let your brother want to go back to her mother's house when the time comes There's no one in the house."

"Has Tong Qiqiao gone?"

Yu Mian didn't respond to Zou Yueyin's teasing, but Zou Yueyin wasn't surprised.

"Sister, I personally delivered it in the morning. I must have seen your brother by now."

"Then the kitten she chose...is it ugly?"

After all, Yu Mian couldn't help asking a few more questions, but fortunately Zou Yueyin wouldn't laugh at him naively,

"I took a look, it's very cute."

Zou Yueyin said and gestured to Yu Mian, "The two eyes have different colors, one basket and one yellow."

"Don't be so specific, I'm not interested in cats."

Yu Mian waved his hand, and Zou Yueyin was still describing how cute the kitten was to him, so he turned around and walked into the cabin. The boat sailed southwards around the coastline and then passed the long river to Mount Enyi for the last time. The siren sounded, the excitement of Yulin City, and the color of the kitten's eyes were all crushed by the wind and thrown into the sea.

"Stinky boy."

Zou Yueyin watched the ships gradually sailing out of the port, stretched slowly,

"Bon Voyage."
