Following Qin Fan, Chu Luo and Si Sheng left together.

The young man and Chu Xiang who were left standing still.

"Brother Dong!"

Chu Xiang pulled the young man's arm and was coquettish, and his dissatisfaction and anger were overflowing.

She pouted and said, "Isn't he just a ruffian, why are you afraid of him?"

"Plank, ruffian?" the young man asked, his eyebrows locked, and his expression serious, "Do you know who he is?"

Seeing him so serious, Chu Xiang paused slightly, and became a little nervous, "Who, who?"

The young man explained, "His grandfather's name is Qin Rong, and he is a famous contemporary calligrapher and painter, a Beidou-level figure of Mount Tai, with countless titles. Before his retirement, he was the president of my country's Chinese Painting Academy, and the apprentices he trained were all leaders in the industry. His works are in the collections of many museums such as the National Museum, the Fog Castle Museum, and the Anseong Museum. ”

"Then ...... him"

Even if his grandfather is a famous calligrapher and painter, it doesn't prevent him from becoming a ruffian.

Before Chu Xiang could complain, the young man said again: "He himself is more divine, he is known as the 'horror copier', and it is rumored that he can copy all paintings 100%. It is rare to be able to distinguish the real from the fake. ”

“......”

Chu Xiang was stunned.

That ruffian and bad non-mainstream young man can still have this kind of magical ability?

"In short, those who come into contact with this industry are proud to have the works of Master Qin Rong. Even an outsider will rack his brains to ask for his works because of his vassal elegance. But his works are generally priceless. The young man continued, "Qin Fan himself has received the attention of people in the industry since he was a child because of his extraordinary skills, and too many people are looking forward to his achievements. But he didn't do that, and he didn't do it. ”

"This ...... So powerful?"

Chu Xiang's voice trembled a little.

"Let no man be a disfigurer. ”

The young man reminded him, faintly worried.

He only met Qin Fan because of an unexpected party. After returning home, he told his family that he must get Master Qin Rong's works, so he was very attentive to Qin Fan......

Today's out, I don't know if it will affect Qin Fan's opinion of him.

Thinking of this, he looked down at Chu Xiang, who looked dazed, and frowned in disgust.

*

The entrance of the store.

After settling the account, the three of them walked out of the door under the warm congratulations of the shopping guide.

As soon as he came out, Chu Luo carried a shopping bag and said goodbye to Si Sheng.

"I'll go first. ”

When she turned around, she paused, frowned at Qin Fan again, and said coldly, "The money will be transferred to you when I go back." ”

"Hey—"

Qin Fan wanted to stop her, but she had already turned around and left, without stopping.

Seeing this, Qin Fan lowered his eyebrows, raised his hand and grabbed his wet hair.

Si Sheng threw all the shopping bags to Qin Fan and asked, "What's the matter?"

"What?"

Carrying a shopping bag full of hands, Qin Fan pretended not to understand.

Si Sheng leaned at him, "I just broke up and came to support me, who are you playing?"

Qin Fan spread his hands and relied on it, "Can I support you?"

"Chu Xiang and Chu Luo have a bad relationship, her new boyfriend happens to know you by coincidence; Chu Xiang and her boyfriend came to the mall to go shopping, and you just pulled me to ask Chu Luo to break up; we went to our street, where should you go back and forth, but the mall is so big, and you appeared when Chu Xiang was in trouble. ”

After analyzing it slowly, Si Sheng smiled coldly, "Qin Fan, this kind of coincidence, what about you being a fool for me?"

"Okay. Qin Fan seemed to compromise, waved his hand, and explained, "Actually, I just feel sorry for her and want to help her vent her bad anger." No, I just met her sister's boyfriend not long ago, and when I learned that they were on a date, I made up a time. Her sister's boyfriend has asked me for something, and I'm sure I'm going to have to break up with her sister in a few days. ”

Si Sheng narrowed his eyes, "That's it?"

Qin Fan was not weak-hearted, and said directly: "Otherwise, although I am quite unreliable, I won't make fun of 'breaking up'." ”

"Whatever you want. ”

Eyebrows stretched, Si Sheng threw down two words and walked to the escalator.

Qin Fan followed, looked down at the shopping bag in his hand, and couldn't stop muttering: "Why did you buy clothes for your boyfriend and let me pay for it......"

Speaking of which, Ling Xize hasn't paid for his tattoo yet!

*

When I got home, it was almost dark.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw two figures, Si Sheng looked at it and found that it was Xiao Wei and Ling Xize.

The two appeared to have just come out of the house.

"Why are you here?"

Si Sheng asked, and naturally handed the shopping bag to Xiao Wei.

Xiao Wei, who had been reduced to a long-term worker, habitually took the shopping bag, and when he got it, he felt a little disobedient, and he was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he was called by Si Sheng again.

Xiao Wei was speechless, and seeing Si Sheng's natural appearance, he had to accept his fate, turned around and went back to the living room with his shopping bag, and put his things away.

Ling Xize said: "Let's have a good time. ”

"Huh?"

Si Sheng was inexplicable.

The whole yard, except for their family, everyone else has moved away, what is the excitement to see?

Ling Xize stood tall and jade, chuckled, and looked at her for a long time, "I heard that there are popcorn machines in the neighborhood at home, and popcorn is free for residents today." ”

"So?"

"Look at the popcorn machine popcorn. ”

Si Sheng felt deaf and said, "You say it again." ”

"You heard it right, it's, look at the popcorn machine popcorn. ”

Ling Xize was extremely patient and repeated word by word.

His brain was stuck, and Si Sheng looked at him like a neuropath, "You came here just to see popcorn?"

"It's to see the popcorn machine—"

"Stop!"

Before Ling Xize could repeat the tongue twister, Si Sheng interrupted him with a numb scalp.

So, Ling Xize really stopped.

After a moment's pause, Ling Xize lowered his eyebrows, looked at her seriously and carefully, and turned his tongue twister into straightforward words, "The main thing is to come to see you." ”

The sudden turn of events made Si Sheng stunned.

The gray night sinks, the air is cold, the world is cold, quiet, standing in the old courtyard, the long figure is also contaminated with the unique charm of this place. The only difference is that he is the only one who has warmth, affectionate eyebrows, and vivid and elegant smiles.

"Are you leaving?"

Xiao Wei, who came out of the shopping bag, asked inappropriately because he didn't have the ability to perceive the atmosphere.

A touch of amazement in his eyes disappeared in vain, Si Sheng looked sideways, stared at his eyebrows and asked, "You also go to see it?"

"Hmm. ”

Xiao replied.

He hadn't seen an old-fashioned popcorn machine either.

Si Sheng looked at Xiao Wei, then at Ling Xize, and muttered to himself: In terms of boredom, these two are really compatible.

"Let's go together. Ling Xize abruptly proposed.

"Oh. ”

I agreed without thinking.

...... When the aftertaste came, Si Sheng hated to bite his tongue and commit suicide.

The smile on Ling Xize's lips deepened.

Xiao Shun didn't notice it, but with the relationship between Si Sheng and Ling Xize, it was a matter of course to agree.

What he cared about was—

"Do you want to get corn?"

“...... No. ”

With a frown, Si Sheng replied to him speechlessly.

......

The popcorn machine that Ling Xize and Xiao Wei want to see, as well as the owner of the popcorn machine, Si Sheng is quite familiar.

is an eighty-year-old man, with a strong body, he used to make a living from popcorn, and his three sons are now happy families and successful careers, and his grandchildren are also competitive and filial.

The old man was full of children and grandchildren, and he could have moved out to live with his children and grandchildren and enjoy his old age in peace, but he lived here all his life and did not want to leave, and his children and grandchildren were not reluctant to come to see him often.

Every year before the Chinese New Year, he will take out the popcorn machine, put it on the fire, and use the machine to pop popcorn skillfully.

Someone brings their own corn, and he will help burst it. However, usually he prepares corn and popcorn, and the nearby residents bring some food, and then take some popcorn from him.

It's like a must-go process during the Chinese New Year.

With every household, you must find the Qin family to get the Spring Festival couplets.

For those who live here, going through these processes is called the real "New Year".

"Eat?"

Walking out of the courtyard, Si Sheng took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to Ling Xize.

This was given by Chu Luo.

"Hmm. ”

Ling Xize took the sugar naturally.

Xiao Wei, who was following behind, saw this scene, and had the urge to turn around and go home to brush up on the questions.

The mobile phone in his pocket was vibrating, Xiao Yi took it out and took a look, and found that it was Si Fengmian's news.

[Si Fengmian]: Shoot a video!

[Si Fengmian]: Shoot a video!

[Si Fengmian]: Shoot a video!

It's been swiped again.

Si Fengmian had this response because Xiao Yigang told him that he was going to see the old-fashioned popcorn machine, a traditional craft.

One by one, they have never seen it with their own eyes, but now that they can see it, they are naturally curious.

[Xiao Wei]: Wait.

[Si Fengmian]: Is my sister there?

Xiao Wei glanced ahead, did not respond, and threw the phone back in his pocket.

He is now numb to Si Fengmian's "sister" Si Sheng, and there is no wave in his heart.

Walking along the bluestone ground, Si Sheng put his hand in his pocket and introduced to them unhurriedly: "In two days, there will be shadow puppet shows and old movies in the evening. ”

Wrapped in sugar on the tip of his tongue and feeling the aroma of toffee, Ling Xize took over and asked, "Every year?"

"Hmm. Si Sheng said, "There were more projects in the past, and they were never finished. ”

Xiao Wei asked, "Why is there less?"

With a slight pause, Si Sheng didn't look back, and said lightly: "Because the old man died." ”

Stunned, Xiao Wei was surprised for a moment, and then he understood, and lowered his eyes with some inexplication.

Si Sheng didn't have so many worries, and began to introduce others, "More than ten years ago, there was a group of people who lived here for two years, and they came from Nuanquan Town, where there is a tradition of 'beating trees and flowers'. In those two years, at this time, they would also get involved. Fire trees and silver flowers, never sleep. ”

In Si Sheng's mouth, this ordinary and common alley seems to be dyed with the colors of rivers and lakes.

People from all over the world, skills from all over the world, all kinds of craftsmen who do not seek profits, but only want to have fun...... It is unimaginable that in today's world of lust and materialism, it is like a peach blossom paradise hidden in the world.

Ling Xize and Xiao Wei both listened quietly.

In a trance, it was like stepping into another world after decades.

"Bang-"

There was a loud bang on the ground, interrupting Si Sheng's introduction.

"Wow-"

"I want to eat, I want to eat!"

"Don't jump so high, like anything. ”

......

Following the noisy sound, I saw a courtyard full of people, one layer inside and one layer outside, including men, women and children at all levels, lively and noisy.

At this time—

A head squeezed out of the crowd, Tao Lele grabbed two handfuls of popcorn and waved at them happily.

"Sister Sheng, Brother Ling, Brother Xiao!"

She was so happy that she could jump.

After she shouted, some people came over one after another, they didn't know Ling Xize and Xiao Wei, but they all knew Si Sheng, and they all took the initiative to say hello.

"Sheng Sheng is here. ”

"Sister Fairy!"

"Shengsheng, come on, come on, just out of the pot, it's still hot. ”

......

Ling Xize lowered his head and looked playful, "So popular?"

"Just look good. ”

Si Sheng leaned at him.

Ling Xize was stunned by her narcissism, and immediately laughed dumbly.

This reason, when she said it, was very convincing.

A pot was baked, and it was divided up in a blink of an eye, and Si Sheng, Ling Xize, and Xiao Wei could only grab a little while it was hot.

Everyone consciously waited for the next round.

"Sister Shengsheng. ”

Tao Lele leaned into Si Sheng's ear, looked at Si Sheng, and said secretly, "It's really not that I'm biased, that's all I have left." ”

She didn't take much, and if she gave it to Ling Xize and Xiao Wei, it wouldn't be enough.

"Hmm. ”

Si Sheng calmly accepted this eccentricity.

Ling Xize and Xiao Wei next door saw this scene in their eyes, turned their heads tacitly, and pretended not to see anything.

Si Sheng asked, "Are you free today?"

"I told my family that I was out to play with my classmates, and I had to go back later. Tao Lele said, "I heard that there are still a lot of activities in the past few days, and I am envious of me, but unfortunately I can't come here every day." ”

"Oh. ”

Evening half of the popcorn to the other hand, Si Sheng's hand reached to the side, his hand was half clenched into a fist, and his index finger was slightly stretched out, hooking someone's sleeve.

Looking at Ling Xize in the crowd, he felt that his sleeves were gently pulled, and just as he was wondering, the back of his hand was suddenly scraped twice.

The tender fingers, like cat's claws, scratched slightly, with a slightly cool and soft touch. Mobile phone users please browse and read, and a better reading experience comes from Aiwang.
