- You sit in a chair and look at the light flowing through the window

You stretch out your hands to touch the hope written on the paper

You say flowers bloom and fall like a window

But the window opens and closes like love

You hold a flower and wait for someone to take you wandering

You want to sleep in the distance like a beautiful fairy tale

The book closes and opens again, drifting away and falling into dreams

Together and apart we are like a pair of oars

always have some wind

some dream

some stay in my heart forever

so sometimes crazy

sometimes confused

sometimes sing

When Ji Shui and Fang Jiahui came to Yi Ran's workshop, Yi Ran was playing and singing Yunzi's "Liqiu" with her guitar in her arms, while Xiaopang and the juniors were humming along to the beat.Whenever Yi Ran finished a difficult painting, if she was in a good mood, she would pick up the guitar and play for a while or sing a couple of verses. This was also a way of self-entertainment and celebration.

Hearing the singing from a distance, Ji Shui and Fang Jiahui didn't go in to disturb them, they just stood at the door and listened quietly.Ji Shui knows that Yi Ran prefers folk songs and simple and clean melodies, and also knows that she can play the guitar early in the morning, but the time they spend together is only more than a year, and the number of times she listens to her playing the guitar is really limited. I often hear her hum a few tunes that come from nowhere, but I have never heard her singing in such a serious manner like now.

The sun at eleven o'clock is moderately shining through the glass windows into the spacious work room, bringing a bit of coldness in winter, and the person who is singing softly is a bit cold, and the corner of his eye The brows were overflowing with warmth from the ground. Ji Shui looked at her from a distance and couldn't help laughing—should I say she has a fairy air or a down-to-earth air?

Fang Jiahui didn't laugh, when Yi Ran finished singing the last line, she thought of Ye Weiyang.Were they crazy that night?Are you still confused after one night?What now?Did the wind blow away after singing "Laughing in the Red Dust"?

do not know.

It's easier said than done, how should we follow?God knows.

She adjusted her thoughts and followed Ji Shui into the room to look at the painting.

"The Picture of Thatched Cottage" was perfectly restored by Yi Ran.The full color of the missing part of the painting heart is completely natural to the original painting. If you don't know that the original painting has defects, you can't tell which are the original colors and which are the supplementary strokes.In terms of decoration, Yi Ran pays attention to wide-brimmed materials and uses simple and elegant blue-gray for the world head. She completes everything from the copper nose to the label by herself, which ensures a high degree of consistency in the mounting of the entire painting.

Ji Shui was filled with joy when he saw it, but his face remained calm.She rarely expresses her true emotions in front of people, and only took out her mobile phone to take pictures of the repaired paintings.She thought that in the future, she could make a booklet and record all of Yi Ran's restored paintings and calligraphy, and take it out to look through after retirement, it would be very meaningful.

Fang Jiahui looked at the painting and praised it. She really didn't expect Yi Ran to restore the painting so well, and said frankly: "I used to have some doubts about you, but now I have doubts about my own eyesight."

Yi Ran said: "It's normal to have doubts. After all, I'm too young. In fact, your doubts are very reasonable. My strength is full color. I'm not as good as those old masters in terms of framing. I still need time to practice."

"But at your age, it's already very rare to be able to frame a painting like this. Framed painting is also a labor-intensive task. Did you do it all by yourself?"

"No, Xiaopang and the others have helped me a lot." Yi Ran patted Xiaopang on the shoulder and said, "Despite his size, he is very careful in his work. In time, he will definitely be able to surpass me. "

"Sister Ran, if you continue to praise me, do you believe that I can get fatter again?" Xiaopang poured tea for Ji Shui and Fang Jiahui, and said, "This tea is Longjing tea that I brought from home specially for Sister Ran. How much, Sister Ran is usually reluctant to drink, Mr. Ji, Ms. Fang, please drink more."

Fang Jiahui took a sip and said with a smile: "I can drink coffee well, but not tea. I'm an amateur in tea tasting."

"Actually, there is no skill in tasting tea. Just like wine, you can tell the good from the bad by drinking it for a long time." Ji Shui picked it up and took a sip. The fragrance was pleasant and her tongue was full of saliva. Are you from Zhejiang?"

"Yes, I'm from Hangzhou."

"Another place with outstanding people, really nice. How long have you been home?"

"I haven't gone back since the [-]th."

"Don't you want to go home?"

"Think about it! But wait until I buy a house and bring my parents here!"

Ji Shui asked with a smile: "Your parents have lived in Hangzhou all their lives, are you sure they really want to come here to retire? Also, after you buy a house, you should marry a wife, and then bring your parents here. good?"

"My parents are the only child of mine. When they are old, I will definitely take over and take care of them. As for the worldwide problem of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law..." Xiaopang touched his nose in distress: "I will try to marry a good wife!"

Zhou Yuxiao asked gossipingly: "Little Fatty, if your mother and your future wife really quarrel, who would you turn to?"

"I'm definitely in love with anyone, and I don't want anyone. In fact, to be honest, there must be very few men who don't feel sorry for their mother. I think the wife should understand this. If a man even My mother doesn't feel bad, who else can he feel bad about? Let's think about it again, the uncle and the mother-in-law have a quarrel, the daughter-in-law must love the mother, the daughter-in-law can love the mother, why can't the husband love the mother? I think now Some media have demonized the mother-in-law, and almost overwhelmingly blame the mother-in-law for being so bad. Not helping you with childcare is even a huge sin. How can the mother-in-law reason? It’s not necessarily good, it’s something that can’t be slapped, right?”

"It makes sense."

"So Sister Ran, if you quarrel with your mother-in-law in the future, your brother-in-law will favor your mother, you must understand."

Yi Ran hit him on the head with a bristle brush: "Why did I get it on my head? Did I provoke you? I was shot while I was lying down, too!"

"You are the only one married in this room, aren't you?"

This is true, Yi Ran rolled her eyes and said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, you are idle if you are idle, dye the silk on the table!"

Xiaopang scratched the back of his head and went to dye the silk honestly. Everyone laughed at his appearance.

After dinner in the evening, Ji Shui took a mobile phone to carefully look at the "Cottage Picture" taken in the morning, and said while watching: "Yi Ran, you can't tell who is who from the original painting with the pen you picked up later. It can definitely be adjusted, but how did you make the color old?"

Yi Ran was putting on a facial mask and didn't want to speak. She didn't open her mouth until Ji Shui asked the second time, and said in a straight voice, "If you want me to answer such confidential questions, you will be charged a tuition fee."

"How much?"

"It's very valuable. It starts at [-] yuan, and it can teach you superficially. If you learn more deeply, it will be priceless."

"I'll just learn fur, do you think I'm worth a hundred thousand?"

"not worth."

"Hate it! Tell me, how do you make the old one?"

Seeing that the time was almost up, Yi Ran took off the mask and said, "It's actually very simple. First, you need to dye paper, silk, and the like. Just put some fine furnace ashes on it, just throw it up and then flick it off. If necessary, you need to use smoke, sun, sandpaper, etc. This thing is like magic. That's all."

After finishing speaking, Yi Ran went to wash her face, and Ji Shui followed her ass, saying flatteringly, "That's what I said, but if you want to be a good magician, you have to work hard. It's the same with your profession. It’s quite simple, but it takes experience to really know how to handle it.”

"In fact, all walks of life are the same. It looks simple, but it's not easy to do well." After washing her face, Yi Ran said, "I even took on a private job today."

"What private work? Are there any photos?"

"Yes," Yi Ran turned on her phone to find the photo, and said, "Gongbi painting, "Drinking Alone Under the Moon"."

Ji Shui zoomed in on the photo: "It doesn't look like the damage is serious, can it be repaired in two weeks?"

"more or less."

"How much would you charge for a painting like this?"

"Twenty thousand. Master Zhang wants me to repair it. There are people, so I don't want to ask for too much. In fact, if it's not for his face, I don't want to accept it."

"how?"

"I can't finish the work at the unit. Besides, I just finished "Cao Tang Tu" not long ago. I thought that I would not accept private work for a while. Besides, once I start working, I will have less time to play with you. .”

"It's true, money can't be earned all the time. It's better to spend more time with me when you're free."

"I think so too. People spend most of their lives working and sleeping, so it's better to give you the rest time during weekdays. Especially on weekends, I try not to let other people or things disturb me."

"Well, I also try not to talk about work on weekends."

"You're different from me, it's understandable, you don't have to force it. Ah, that's right," Yi Ran patted her forehead: "It's so difficult to create a file now, and I have to thank you for helping Xiang Shang find the back door."

Ji Shui frowned: "Why are you so polite? I hate it! Don't be polite to me in the future!"

"Got it! Why are you so fierce? It's easy to get old!" Yi Ran smoothed her eyebrows and said, "Xiang Shang did B in the afternoon.

Chao, sent a WeChat message saying that everything about the fetal heart rate and embryo buds is normal, and I am flying with joy. If this is the case, will the file be created soon? "

"Probably, but she seems to have to create a mother-child health file. If this is the case, it will definitely not be done today, so try to go early." Ji Shui sliced ​​lemon into a cup, poured water, took a sip, and handed it to Yi Ran: "The better obstetrics departments here in Beijing are overcrowded, and it's troublesome to file. Then you go with me to thank Sister Fu, the senior who helped Xiang Shang file. I will introduce you to each other."

"It's rare that you take the initiative to introduce someone to me."

"Most people I know have deep thoughts, so I don't take the initiative to introduce them to you."

"Isn't this thought deep?"

"She can't be described as deep. It should be said that she has a delicate mind and a very good character. Most importantly, her attributes are exactly the same as ours."

same attributes?Yi Ran asked, "Could it be that the one at home is also a woman?"

"That's right! Not only a woman, but also an alumnus with you."

Yi Ran was surprised and said, "What a coincidence! Then I'd be interested to meet him."

"I guess you'll be interested. Ah—! I suddenly remembered something. You sang today. I rarely listen to you sing. If you don't sing for me, I'm not happy!"

"I usually seldom sing. I sang it today because I was in a good mood. Then I will sing it to you more in the future?"

"That's about the same, you start with a song now."

"I have a little donkey that I never ride..."

"Student! Can you sing a serious song?"

"Is there any more serious song than nursery rhymes?"

"If you don't want to sing, forget it!"

"Okay, what's the mood?" Yi Ran found the old guitar at home that hadn't been used for a long time from under the bed, and sang: "I want to take you to fly around, to see all over the world, no worries, no worries Sad, free and happy, forget the pain and forget the place, we set off to wander together, la la la la forget the words, forget the words, la la la, forget the words, forget the words..."

Yi Ran really forgot the words. As soon as she finished "la la", she changed her pitch and sang back to "Little Donkey". The word was strangely familiar, and Ji Shui hugged her and burst into laughter.

The two were arguing when Hu Xiaobing called and invited Yi Ran to have a meal with Ji Shui. Yi Ran felt that after reconciling with Ji Shui for so long, it was time for them to have a meal with Hu Xiaobing so that they could get to know each other better. , agreed.

The week before Christmas, the cold air hit again, and there was also snow in the sky. The snow was not heavy, and it was not pleasant to fall. Let’s take a look at the shape one by one. The crooked, thin and lonely ones are not beautiful, but after all, it is Snow Princess. As soon as the princess arrives, ordinary people will always become slavish and fall under the pomegranate skirt of Princess Snow again and again—singing to her, praising her, taking endless photos and posting them on WeChat and Weibo, instantly, everyone becomes poets and poets. artist.

Ji Shui was not immune either, she wrote a poem to Yi Ran - you are snow, I am pure white, you fall on me, and I blend into your body.

Yi Ran saw that her cheeks became hot, and was about to send a song back to Ji Shui, when she received a call from Hu Xiaobing urging her to go to dinner. of approx.

Hu Xiaobing invited Ji Shui and Yi Ran to Shuwei.After the three of them were seated, Ji Shui said, "It seems that this restaurant opened by my senior sister is quite famous. It not only attracts alumni from Peking University, but also from Tsinghua University."

Hu Xiaobing said: "I was also introduced by a buddy from our unit, Peking University. I have been here twice, and the dishes are really good. I will definitely come here again in the future."

"Well, the food here is really good. I always wanted to bring Yi Ran here before."

Yi Ran asked, "Then why didn't you bring me here?"

Ji Shui smiled and said, "I think the dishes you cook are better than those here, so I didn't bring you here."

"Slick tongue!" Yi Ran cast an annoyed look at her, then tapped the back of her hand with chopsticks.

Hu Xiaobing looked at the two of them, and he knew it already.He ordered a few bottles of beer, and when all the dishes were served, he opened the beer and poured it into the glass. Yi Ran said, "Don't pour me wine, you guys drink it, I won't drink it. How can I drive after drinking all the wine?" go back?"

Hu Xiaobing said, "It's okay, I came here by subway."

"Then what about me and Ji Shui?"

"Okay, anyway, you don't drink much outside, so you use tea as a bar, at least serve a cup of meaning. Come on, Ji Shui, Yi Ran, congratulations on your reunion."

After the three clinked glasses, Ji Shui said, "It's time for you to find your other half."

Hu Xiaobing said: "How can it be so easy to find? It's not a boy at the age of twenty, and he doesn't have any thoughts about love. I think it's good to be single. I must find a partner. Of course, if I meet a suitable one, I will not refuse."

"The right one may not necessarily be the one you love."

"Hey! How can there be so many people who love it or not? It's almost enough. There are too few like you two. Most people just make do with it, and those who don't want to do it live alone."

"Actually, even if a lot of people love desperately at the beginning, they will start to make do with it, and make do with it for the rest of their lives. This kind of situation is most common among middle-aged couples. If you get through it, you will grow old together, quite Those who don't get over will part ways. Which couple doesn't feel sad behind their backs!"

Yi Ran said: "That's true. I actually don't quite understand why many people say that 'the opposite sex is only for reproduction, and the same sex is true love'. I think that no matter the same sex or the opposite sex, there is true love, and reproduction It is also a very meaningful thing in itself, and there is nothing to laugh at. In the end, people are all the same, and their emotional lines are also similar. After the passionate period, it will be flat afterwards, so the relationship needs to be managed.”

Ji Shui joked, "So I just need to manage you."

"Why don't I run you?"

"You're too lazy to do business."

"Who said that? I have never been lazy in managing you."

"Are you sure? Then I'd like to be managed by you."

Hu Xiaobing said with a bitter face: "Can you stop guarding my lonely family and show affection? But Yiran, I really have something to ask for your help."

"What's the matter?"

"My aunt will come to play in two days, and I need your cooperation. You know, I have been closest to my aunt since I was a child, and she doesn't come to Beijing very often. She is getting older, so I don't worry about her living outside alone. I just want her to live at home, just to wrong you a bit, and have to go to my side as a 'mistress' for two days."

Relatives came to the house, and the two lived together temporarily. This is actually no stranger to Yi Ran and Hu Xiaobing, a nominal couple. For example, last year Yi Ran's parents came to see them and they lived in Hu Xiaobing's house.The most troublesome thing about physical marriage is that you have to act from time to time, but this is also the price you have to pay for harmony.

It's just that today is different from the past, Yi Ran and Ji Shui reconciled, she always has to consider Ji Shui's feelings, so she said: "I can't decide this matter now, you ask her," she pointed to Ji Shui: "If If she agrees, I have no objection."

"You guys think I'm too narrow-minded." Ji Shui helped Yi Ran refill her tea, and said, "Just go to this kind of thing, anyway, it's only two or three days, I have no objection."

"I knew Sister Shui was a good person, come and go!" Hu Xiaobing finished his drink and said, "Sister, you can rest assured that Yi Ran and I have to sleep in the same room when this happens, but we It’s all paved.”

"No need to explain, I'm very relieved."

"Bangliang! Hey, what's your WeChat account?"

Ji Shui told him the WeChat ID, and after the two exchanged WeChat messages, Ji Shui asked Yi Ran, "Do you need to bring some clothes?"

"No, he has my clothes." Glancing at her, he explained: "This kind of drama happens from time to time, and it's troublesome to take it back and forth, so I might as well keep it at his house. He has my separate wardrobe, and I keep the four seasons There are two sets of clothes for each of them, so it is more like a couple."

After hearing this, Ji Shui felt that it was very normal to do so, but at the same time felt weird. She put aside the sudden strangeness for a while, frowned slightly, and took a sip of Yi Ran's tea.
