In the evening, Meng Junyao asked Wu Hai not to look for a hotel, and simply went to his own house for a night.

So the two New Year's friends, who also love painting, music and wine, chatted all night, but no one said a word about each other's origins and family status.

There are so many fun things in the world, why mention those useless things?

- The two of them thought the same thing.

Although the two of them are very indifferent by nature and do not talk about their family background, they inevitably have to talk about feelings, because art and music, the soul behind these art forms is nothing more than the word "love".

It is impossible for a ruthless person to create a good painting, and no matter how gorgeous the notes played, they will not move people's hearts.

There was a half-length oil portrait of a girl in Meng Junyao's studio, Wu Hai hugged his arms, looked up and down, left and right for a while with the unique vision of an art person, and said with certainty: "Brother Meng, this must be my sister-in-law's childhood, right?"

Meng Junyao smiled dumbly: "No." Do you look at my place like a sister-in-law?"

Wu Hai: "You clean up so much here, I believe you when you say you have a sister-in-law." If not, it must be the girl you like, right?"

Meng Junyao smiled again and didn't answer.

Wu Hai pointed to a few places on the painting and said wittily: "Look at it, look at it, these eyes, this eyebrows, this corner of the mouth, and here, here, you clearly draw your love into it! From the processing of the lines and the details of the light, I can see it, absolutely, you can't paint like this without emotion!"

Meng Junyao knew that he couldn't blind his peers, so he simply admitted it generously, anyway, Wu Hai didn't know who was painting.

Wu Hai sat on the sofa and unceremoniously grabbed a handful of strawberries from the coffee table and ate them: "Brother Meng, if you don't mind, tell me the story of you and this girl, maybe it will stimulate my inspiration, and I can write a song for the two of you." ”

Meng Junyao had never mentioned Xiaobai to anyone, he slowly lit a cigarette, and his thoughts drifted to the distant past with the rising smoke rings......

After a while, he floated back again: "Actually, one sentence is enough to sum up our story. ”

Wu Hai: "Which word?"

Meng Junyao: "I was born before I was born, and I am old when I was born." ”

Wu Hai started with the passion and posture unique to the artistic youth: "If this is the whole of your love story, then it is really sad! Which law in our country clearly stipulates that if there is a big age difference, you can't talk about a partner? Can't you marry 82 if you are not 28? It must be Brother Meng, you are always thinking about others, worrying that other people's flowers are inserted in cow dung, of course, I don't mean to compare you to cow dung......

Meng Junyao smiled and said, "Cow dung doesn't hurt, it's almost the same." ”

Wu Hai: "Well, is this girl married now? If not, I will support you to snatch her from the cracked wall, if you can't do this, brother, I'll help you rob her! Say, where does she live?"

Meng Junyao laughed: "You should be robbing Mrs. Zhai, I think you should eat your strawberries!"

Wu Hai quickly fell in love with M City, a small and livable city with low prices and pleasant climate, and preferred to chat with Brother Meng every day, talk about art and life, so he decided to live for a while on a whim.

Taking turns sleeping on a bed and a sofa turned into countless nights.

Meng Junyao took care of food and housing, and Wu Hai's little savings didn't have to be used for a long time, but he didn't eat and drink in vain, and took the initiative to help do this and that.

At this time, it was the season when the peach blossoms were full of branches, and the two brothers, who were familiar at first sight and chatted extremely speculatively, decided to have a "Taoyuan Erjie".

said it was a peach orchard, but in fact, there were not so many peach trees at all, only one outside Meng Junyao's window.

There are no rituals such as black cows and white horses, and there is no incense, and there is no need to "report to the country, go down to Anlishu, do not seek to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but only wish to die on the same day and month of the same year", so I got some wine, a cup of worship for the rising sun, a cup for the moonlight, a cup for the hometown, a cup for the distance, a cup for tomorrow, a cup for the past, a cup for freedom, and a cup for death......

Since then, the two have become brothers with different surnames, but so far they don't even know what experience each other has had and who else is in the family.

The two also PK their painting skills, obviously the eldest brother Meng Junyao is a step ahead, and Wu Hai has learned a lot from him.

However, in terms of music, Meng Junyao can only play the harmonica, and Wu Hai plays the piano and guitar well, if he wants, he can also open a class to enroll, but with his uninhibited personality, he is not sure how long he will stay here this time, so he is willing to give Brother Meng a hand, and mingle with the children who come to take painting lessons.

During the day, it is always lively and lively, and when the moon is like water, people are easy to think of their own thoughts.

During another night of heart-to-heart talk, Wu Hai briefly mentioned his relationship with Dream.

A big man revealed his true feelings, hugging a bunch of wine bottles and crying profusely: "Brother Meng, why do you say that a woman's heart is so elusive? You think it's true, but it turns out that it's more fake than a false eyelash that looks like a fly's legs.

Meng Junyao comforted him and said: "Yes, there must be, without true love, can you still write love songs?"

"I just can't write it! It's been a long time since I've had a decent work, and since she left, my passion has been hit," Wu Hai poured a few more sips of wine and pondered, "It doesn't seem right to say that, Brother Meng, I have seen the truth in you, a rare truth in the world." I just don't want to change my passion. ”

Wu Hai talked about Meng Junyao's residence for many days, and finally felt that it was time to leave, he couldn't always make trouble here, and he had to go to some places to collect creative inspiration.

Brother Meng has spent a lot of money these days, but Meng Junyao didn't care about himself at all, Wu Hai felt that he had to buy something decent for him when he left.

Wu Hai found an ATM and wanted to see how much balance he still had on his card, but he didn't know if he didn't look at it, and he was shocked when he saw that there was an extra 1 million in the card!

Check the name of the remitter: Mayang.

It turned out that his brother Wushan knew that he was "traveling all over the world" outside, and he was afraid that this unreliable younger brother would not have enough money and would be embarrassed to talk to his family, so he specially asked Mayang to send it to him.

I was going to remit more, but when I thought about this younger brother's stubborn temperament, I was afraid that he would be unhappy if I gave more, so I sent 1 million for emergency first.

Although Wu Hai didn't plan to use the money, his heart still warmed up.

I got along so happily with Meng Junyao, my brother-in-law, that I almost forgot that I had a brother.

This brother never talks to himself well, let alone chats and expresses concern, because it is too numb for him. But he always cared for himself in his own unique way.

Wu Hai rarely goes to the mall, he walks around in it, and feels that those bling bling things are too flashy, and Brother Meng is so real alone, he doesn't need to buy him a tie, perfume, a brand-name wallet or something.

So what does Brother Meng need?

Well, probably the most needed sister-in-law.

Wu Hai thought, but this matter is not something that an outsider can handle, let's pull it down first!

As a result, the honest Wu Hai finally bought Meng Junyao with the following contents: 6 barrels of peanut oil, 6 barrels of soybean oil, 6 barrels of rapeseed oil, 6 bottles of olive oil, 6 bottles of soy sauce, 6 bottles of cooking wine, 6 bags of rice, 6 boxes of sugar, 6 boxes of salt, 6 bags of peppercorns, 6 bottles of shampoo, 6 toothbrushes, 6 tubes of toothpaste, 6 pieces of soap, and the end.

Meng Junyao almost laughed and cried after seeing the full kitchen: "I'm a bachelor, you buy so much, how long will it take me to use it up?"

Wu Hai said: "It's all 6, it's auspicious, hehehe." Besides, I bought you so much oil for a purpose. ”

Meng Junyao: "What's the intention?"

Wu Hai turned around and took out 6 fish from the pocket hanging on the doorknob: "There is still something here, hehe, before leaving, I want to eat the fish made by the boss again, eat enough of it at one time, okay?"

It turned out that before Wu Hai left M City, the most reluctant thing was not only Brother Meng himself, but also the secret sauce fish made by Brother Meng.

Since I was a child, I have followed my family to a lot of good restaurants, even the chef of a super five-star hotel, I have never eaten such an unforgettable fish, and I can swallow 4 bowls of rice in one meal!

Wu Hai once said: "Since it is a secret system, then it is inconvenient for me to ask about this recipe." ”

Meng Junyao said with a smile: "If you want to learn, what I write to you is, what is the great thing about a recipe for cooking? ”

Wu Hai took the recipe and looked at it, there were as many as 30 kinds of ingredients in the secret sauce, including beer, sweet noodle sauce, soybean sauce, etc., and the proportion, temperature and order of the configuration were still very complicated, so he returned the recipe with difficulty: "Forget it, I can't make it if I give it to me." ”

In fact, Meng Junyao knows many, many ways to cook fish, all of which are delicious, but Wu Hai is the most greedy for this one, so on the last night before he left, Meng Junyao made all 6 of them into secret sauces at a time.

Full of wine and food, Wu Hai couldn't move anymore, lying on the sofa on all fours and sighing at Meng Junyao, who was washing dishes: "Brother Meng, you are so capable and virtuous, if there is a sister-in-law at home, how happy that sister-in-law is!"

Meng Junyao: "You kid dare to use the word virtuous again, beware of me beating you!"

Wu Hai: "Hahaha!"

People are more likely to have a sense of happiness after they are full, which is why many people choose to eat a big meal when they are sad. But don't forget to lose weight after eating.

That night, Wu Hai suddenly had a creative inspiration, and he wrote a song, which was also the first time he wrote a song that was not a love song, and the name was "The Fish Made by Big Brother".

The lyrics read:

There's a fish in the distance / Its name is a secret fish / Big brother's hand has magical magic / It's an absolute miracle when it's plated......

(Please use the tune of "Descendants of the Dragon" to make up for yourself.) ）

Wu Hai said that after the release of the disc in the future, he would use a photo of Meng Junyao cooking himself as the cover.

Meng Junyao hurriedly said: "That can't be helped, just put a pestle on the cover of my image, don't talk about record stores, even the business of selling fish will suffer!"

Wu Hai: "Hahaha, I like you so much, Brother Meng!"
