The dark space brought shortness of breath for a moment, the nose was surrounded by the smell of lime laundry detergent, the voice in the earphones was close to his nerves, and his waist, which was half exposed in the air, trembled slightly.

"Teacher Li?"

"Hey, I'm here." Li Yu was called back by Gu Heliang's soft call, and hurriedly put on his sweater, as if he thought he could see him even through voice calls, "You say."

Gu Heliang said: "I'll pick you up from the dance room, okay?"

Li Yu wanted to say yes, but suddenly thought of "Lu Jianghai" downstairs, so he quickly changed his words, "I'll wait for you at the gate of Xiyuanshe. I just go there so that you don't have to turn around again."

After getting Gu Heliang's affirmative answer, Li Yu hung up the phone, walked out of the dressing room, and rushed to the front desk, resting his chin on his stomach. Before he could speak, Wu Chen only glanced at him, then looked away with contempt.

"Please, stay away from me."

Li Yu was puzzled, "What's wrong? I haven't said anything yet."

Wu Chen said sourly: "Oh, do you still need your old man to open his mouth to order? You go and look in the mirror to see that your face is full of spring, and the dimple around your mouth is so deep that you can swim in it. I have a date. Just go, don't neglect Boss Gu."

"Hey, the layout is small, right? I call it an industry survey, and I'm doing business."

"Mr. Li, they talk about cross talk, we dance street dance, there seem to be eight Mariana Trench in between, what kind of industry investigation are you doing?"

"It's all folk art, it's not bad." Li Yu glanced at himself at the glass door, scratched his hair smugly, and straightened his sweater and hat, "Fortunately, I look pretty good today."

"Everything you wear from a stall looks like a brand." Wu Chen looked him up and down, relying on his years of fashion experience to assure that Li Yu added shoes from the beginning to the end, and it didn't exceed 500 yuan, so he insisted on wearing them. With a sense of high definition, "Why don't you wear the suit last time?"

Li Yu said: "I left the rent early, and it costs 200 yuan a day. I only wore it for half a day that time, and there was no discount."

Wu Chen was overjoyed, "Okay, I rented it. I thought that Mr. Li, the famous pickpocket, had a change of sex, so I bought it specially."

"I don't need it normally, it's a waste." Li Yu picked it up confidently, "I'll still enjoy the money I've saved."

Wu Chen smashed his mouth and waved his hands: "...Chengbai, do whatever you like, don't get in the way here, and go about your big business."

……

Li Yu waited for less than 10 minutes at the door of Xiyuanshe. The familiar white Lexus stopped in front of him. He quickly got into the co-pilot and saw that the driving Gu Heliang was still wearing a coat. .

"You came really fast, the road is not blocked now, right?" Li Yu consciously fastened his seat belt.

"It's okay, it's not time to get off work." Gu Heliang stepped on the accelerator after seeing that Li Yu was sitting firmly.

Li Yu watched the car drive towards the second ring road, and then remembered the detailed information about Gu Heliang in Chaohua, saying that the Gu family's old house is in an alley at the foot of Huangchenggen, not only for their own family, but also for the students of Xiyuan Society As for the accommodation, the size of the courtyard can be imagined, which further reflects Gu Heliang's high social status.

Only then did he feel that it was a bit reckless to visit the Gu family's old house so abruptly.Especially if you meet Gu Baoshen and ask him why he came, would he say that he came to watch the fun?

"Boss Gu, I'm empty-handed, I didn't bring anything to Mr. Gu..." Li Yu said hesitantly.

Gu Heliang said: "It's okay, he went to visit his relatives these two days, there are no elders in the house now."

Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart relaxed a little, "That's great, I'm not ready yet."

Gu Heliang pursed the corners of his lips, "Are you going to meet the parents?"

"Ah?" Li Yu stared blankly at Gu Heliang, only to see Gu Heliang staring ahead, concentrating on driving, as if what he just said was just an auditory hallucination.

But...he really heard right?The radio was not turned on in the car, and Gu Heliang's voice was clear.

The atmosphere in the car froze for a few seconds, but it was Gu Heliang who broke the silence first, and glanced at Li Yu with a half-smile, "Why, isn't the old man Gu Nian's parent?"

Li Yu suddenly realized that this was what he meant, "That must be counted. But I am such a little hip-hop teacher, how dare I do Mr. Gu's home visit."

"The old man is not a god, he is just a craftsman who relies on his ability to make a living." Gu Heliang said, "It is a good thing that the status of cross talk actors has improved in the past two years, but it is too serious to take themselves too seriously. Separated from the audience, drifting too high, It’s not cross talk.”

"That's why you want to let the people of Xiyuanshe lay down the land like they did back then?"

"Half right. If it was only my own business, the hot pot wouldn't end in a hurry that day."

"That's that?" Li Yu stared at the dangling lucky bag on the front-view mirror, and the amplitude of the swing was almost the same. It could be seen that the car was driving steadily.

Gu Heliang said: "It was my uncle who led the people, and suddenly came from Tianjin to go to acupuncture points."

12. Invite to live together

◎Oh, it’s too early◎

The so-called "walking acupoints" is a term commonly used in cross talk circles.At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the performance venues where cross talk artists resident became "acupoints". Therefore, a certain artist went to perform in other places to make a living, which is called "walking acupuncture points".Generally, under such circumstances, one has to speak to the "palm acupoint" in charge, which is called the rule.

Although Gu Heliang is now the leader of the Gu family, the nominal "palm point" is still Gu Baoshen.However, Mr. Gu went south to visit his relatives two days ago, and Gu Heliang's uncle came here at this time, which is equivalent to "walking the acupoint" while the "palm acupoint" is not there, and his intention is not very clear.

That's why Gu Heliang hurriedly ended the meal that day to see this uncle and the people he brought to visit the acupoints.

Li Yu listened to Gu Heliang's explanation of the cause and effect, "It really doesn't sound like a simple 'walking hole', is it a means of putting down the ground as a showdown?"

"Almost, it's equivalent to us helping ticket work."

During the conversation, Gu Heliang had already driven the car into the newly built garage at the entrance of the alley.Because most of these old alleys are very narrow, it is not easy for cars to park in them, so they basically build their own garages to save the trouble of going back and forth.

Li Yu followed Gu Heliang out of the car, and his ears were filled with the cheerful old Beijing accent.

In his field of vision, the blue bricks and gray tiles immediately blur the prosperity of modern Beijing into the blue sky, while the old Peking is still rippling on the dark walls of the courtyards and the eaves with swallows' nests.

Peaceful and simple, gentle and elegant.

Li Yu's eyes fell on Gu Heliang. The gown was as flat as ever without any folds, and the buttons were tightly fastened to the top one.Although Boss Gu's senior's attire that day was also very friendly and warm, but as expected, the coat made him look more natural, whether it was with himself or with this long and deep alley.

Gu Heliang noticed Li Yu's steadfast gaze, and looked back inquiringly.

As if being scalded, Li Yu quickly turned his head to look to the side, saw two pillar-shaped wooden carvings on a gate, and deliberately raised the topic: "What is that?"

"This is the 'household pair' in the idiom 'good family pair'." Gu Heliang explained, "When there were emperors in the past, the number of household pairs was different according to the status of the family and the size of the official position. The old house was the It was bought from a fifth-rank official whose family has fallen, so there are six pairs of households."

Li Yu smiled and said: "It seems that if you want to be in the same household, Boss Gu has to find someone with six households in the doorway."

"No, his family doesn't have to have any."

It happened to be in front of the old house of the Gu family, and the noisy and chaotic voices entered Li Yu's ears.

Gu Heliang pushed open the door with one hand, and lightly supported Li Yu's wrist with the other hand, telling him to be careful of the high threshold, and continued what he had just said: "If I want to marry him, I will bring three families with me as dowry gifts. gone."

This was the first time Li Yu stepped into the courtyard.Through a small porch, there is a world that is much wider than he imagined.

In addition, there were many more people than he expected.The courtyard houses are always neatly arranged, leaving a space in the middle for the residents to drink tea, enjoy the moon, and soak up the sky, but now it is used as their rehearsal venue.

Following the two of them appearing at the door, these people stopped practicing Guankou, singing little tunes, and playing tricks, and they all looked over in unison.

But Li Yu was not the kind of stage fright person, he naturally smiled at everyone present as a greeting.

Gu Heliang lowered his eyes slightly, and seeing Li Yu's smile, the small dimples exposed on the side of his cheeks were sweet and thick, so he quietly took a step in front of Li Yu's body, towards those who wrote "Who is this person" all over their faces? The curious brothers said in a deep voice, "You do your own thing."

Everyone saw that Gu Heliang had no intention of introducing He Fangsheng to them at all, so they looked away resentfully, and continued to practice their subjects.

But those who knew Li Yu were not so easily fooled away by Gu Heliang's orders.
