"This ...... Did you do it?" Sun Boran picked up a piece of furniture from the box, put it in his hand and studied it carefully for a long time, and asked Lu Cheng without raising his head.

"It's a picture drawn by Senior Brother Xu, and I did it!" Facing the examiner, Lu Cheng plucked up his courage and emphasized again.

Sun Boran didn't care. The so-called drawing of folk craftsmen is basically a very superficial design draft, and many times the master will provide such a small painting as a reference for his own needs when he asks someone to do the work.

Lu Cheng looked very young, Xu Wen was younger than him, and it should be obvious who was the main body in the whole work.

But when Liu Huzi heard this, he looked at Xu Wen and asked, "The patterns carved on this are all you thought of?"

"Hmm. ”

"How did you come up with the idea to paint these?"

"Grandpa Shi has always lived in the city, these are common things in the streets and alleys, I think Grandpa should be very kind to see this. Xu asked.

"I look kind, you painted it for me?" asked Liu Huzi, staring at him.

"Didn't Master Sun make it very clear? It's for his master, that is, you, to celebrate his birthday. Xu Wen replied naturally.

Liu Huzi didn't speak for a while, just gently stroked the pattern on a box, squinting his eyes to take a closer look.

Xu Wen was a little far away, but he remembered what he had painted for it.

It was an old lady selling fried chestnuts with sugar, wearing a headscarf and smiling. In autumn, you can occasionally see such old ladies on the street, and Yao's wooden workshop also has it.

Xu Wen liked to eat fried chestnuts with sugar in another world, but when he was a child, he didn't have pocket money, and no one bought him for him. When I was in high school, I bought it at the same table and divided a few of them, and he ate very sparingly, and the sweet taste is still in my memory.

After a while, Liu Huzi's voice sounded quietly: "You, you loved to eat this when you were a child, and you pestered me to buy it for you every autumn." I still can't eat it, once the whole chestnut slipped into my throat and almost choked you to death, so scared that I hugged you to find the doctor and the goddess, and it took a long time to save your little life. I thought you wouldn't dare to eat it from now on, but it turned out to be still. The little money I earn from my work is all for you to buy chestnuts. ”

Sun Boran looked at them uncomfortably, and complained: "That was decades ago......

"Do you still like to eat fried chestnuts with sugar?" Liu Huzi interrupted him and asked.

“...... Love to eat. Sun Boran admitted.

Liu Huzi smiled, he put the small box back in the wooden box, and asked Lu Cheng and Xu, "This gift is good, can you give it to me?"

Lu Cheng was still very clever, and immediately said: "Grandpa Liu, of course it's okay, this is originally a birthday gift for you......! Blessing is like the East China Sea, Shoubi Nanshan!"

This set of words has been used before, and Lu Cheng originally wanted to change it, but his knowledge was limited after all, and he couldn't think of it after thinking about it for a long time, so he had to honestly apply this one that he only knew.

"Haha, good, good. Liu Huzi showed his first smile of the day, nodded to the two children very kindly, and then took out two pieces of candy from his pocket, and one of them stuffed one of them.

Most of the surrounding candidates had not left yet, and when they saw Liu Huzi's movements, they all showed envious expressions. But at the same time, they also heard Liu Huzi's previous words.

In their opinion, Lu Cheng and Xu Wen are either better in craftsmanship or have made the right choice.

They honestly gave out a birthday gift in the literal sense, but they just happened to win Liu Huzi's favor by mistake, which was really lucky.

No, maybe it's not luck, it's just like Liu Huzi said, their hearts are right.

Sometimes it's better not to think too much about it and do things in a down-to-earth manner......

The candidates left with their own thoughts, and Xu asked them to stand for a while, and when the procession flowed to them, they followed suit.

Xu Wen walked to the entrance of the alley and glanced back.

Liu Huzi was still sitting in the old place, holding their box, babbling something to the apprentice next to him.

Sun Boran listened carefully, and his hand was still fanning the master with a match.

At this time, they were like two ordinary old men who recalled the past.

People will die, memories will disappear, but the patterns engraved on those utensils will always tell people about the past and the people who once existed.

A strange emotion shrouded Xu Wen's heart, and he was still immersed in it until he walked out of the distance, and he couldn't pull it out.

"How's it going?" As soon as they walked out of the range of Guoxiang Alley, Qi Zhengze came up with his family and asked hurriedly.

He listened to a lot of news outside in a mess, all of them were incomplete, and most of them were bad, and his heart hung higher and higher. If he hadn't really squeezed in, he would have rushed in. At this time, he finally saw them, and he immediately greeted them and asked.

The three of them glanced at each other, and their expressions were a little subtle.

"It's good, it's not good......" Qi Kun didn't know how to describe it.

Several people walked to the parking place together, and along the way, Qi Kun told his father all the way to his father.

In the end, Qi Zhengze's expression also became a little subtle.

All the candidates were scolded, although they also did wrong, but it was inconspicuous to be mixed in with so many people, and it was not a big disaster. Even because of this, he knew that his deceased father and Liu Huzi were old acquaintances, which could barely be regarded as good news.

But because everyone was scolded, the only one who was not scolded and the things were left behind were very conspicuous.

Think about it this morning he was still saying that the current situation is not good for them, because they can only be small, not big, clumsy, and not clever. But who would have thought that this small, clumsy would have made them by mistake!

Qi Zhengze never believed that Xu Wen could calculate such a child, so it can only be said that sometimes the child's simple heart is far better than the calculation of adults......

A group of people got into the car, each in silent thoughtful silence.

Xu Wen leaned against the wall of the car, looking at the streets and alleys outside, his face did not have the joy of victory, but fell into another round of contemplation.

Of course, this result was the result of his calculations, but he suddenly felt that he was sometimes calculating a little too much.

At the same time, Liu Huzi was still sitting on his little pony, looking over and over at the small furniture.

"It's so exquisitely done, the more you look at it, the more detailed it becomes, I really can't tell that it's an apprentice of this age. The more Liu Huzi looked at it, the more he liked it, and he couldn't help but admire.

Sun Boran stood behind him, also staring at the things in his hand, his eyes swept over every line and outline on the big wooden vessel, and his brows were tightly wrinkled.

"What about the two apprentices?" he asked suddenly.

"My lord, they are already gone, do you need me to find them back?" someone next to him immediately replied.

“...... No need. Sun Boran hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head.

"Let's wait for the apprentices to try. He said.
