"So, did they make it out alive?" Chu Heng put the shiny lacquerware in his hand back on the shelf, and casually said to the old man sitting on the rattan chair in the store, holding the green new tea: "Uncle Li, I have heard your story no less than eight hundred times since I was a child, but every time it comes to a critical time, you stop talking." I've seen hanging people's appetites, but I've never seen people like you, who have hung the appetite of the whole village for decades, and still can't hold back a fart when you are killed. ”

"What kind of bullshit, I said Xiao Chuzi, you can't learn from Yaowu's group of little bastards and don't take our old guys in your eyes. I watched you grow up, and you peed in my arms when you were young, how can you talk to your Uncle Li like this? The old man who was half-lying in the rattan chair moved his body comfortably, moved the cushion leaning on the back of the chair to a more comfortable place, took a sip of tea with just the right temperature, shook his white goatee, and looked at Chu Heng who was cleaning the shelves with dissatisfaction.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Chu Heng chuckled gently, gently wiped the lacquerware on the shelves with special elk skin, and dealt with Uncle Li who suddenly became angry: "It's because I don't have a door on my mouth, I'm really sorry that Uncle Li took care of me!" Don't be like me, be careful of getting angry! ”

"That's pretty much it." The old man seemed to be very satisfied with Chu Heng's attitude of admitting his mistakes, and his tone also slipped smoothly: "These ten miles and eight towns, I can also look up to you kid, those little bastards who are either clubbing or picking up girls all day long, or kneel in front of me, uncle, I don't bother to take care of them!" ”

"That is, after all, within the range of ten miles and eight townships, there is no one else who can let you come to eat tea and rice every day, except for my Huiyi Pavilion." Smiling self-deprecatingly, Chu Heng carefully put the last piece of lacquerware back on the spotless shelf, turned around and walked to the crystal stove on the side, and slowly poured the hot tea with the candle flame into the old man's dried teacup, and the pale green liquid swirled in the teacup with a red background, creating a thick ripple.

"Xiao Chuzi, you treat your uncle as a scoundrel who eats overlord meals, right? All right! I'm going to leave your shop now! I don't believe it, with my Li's face, where can't I mix a meal? Uncle Li hatefully put the lacquer cup in his hand on the table, stood up and walked away, a pair of snow-white eyebrows trembled, looking really angry.

"I said Uncle Li, your Hehuan Cup is also a famous weapon of the Song Dynasty, you smashed it so hard, if there is a thing, it will be a real regret!" Chu Heng picked up the teacup that was smashed on the table by the old man in distress, refilled the dried cup with tea, raised his head slightly, and whispered to the old man who was about to leave at the door: "There is Yujing rice and ice crystal Dongpo meat at noon today, with the new Dongting Water Cloud Tea, I really want to drool when I think about it." ”

The old man's ears under his white sideburns moved sensitively, and after coughing a few times, he paced back to the rattan chair next to the coffee table with square steps, slowly took the teacup handed by Chu Heng, clicked his lips, as if what happened just now had not happened at all, took a sip of tea, and said casually: "When did Hongluan come back?" Isn't she still in high school in Beijing? Now that the college entrance examination is approaching, why did she run back at this critical time? ”

Chu Heng saw that the old man deliberately pretended to be careless, but his ears were stunned, and he waited intently for his answer, he smiled secretly in his heart, and a refreshing smile appeared on his face: "She has been recruited in advance by the Department of Archaeology of Peking University, and she is directly assigned to Professor Zhong's door, so she doesn't even need to take the exam, of course she has time to come back and have a chic play." ”

"Hey, I knew that Nizi wasn't a thing in the pool after all!" The old man raised his eyebrows proudly, and the old face with ravines showed a smug expression: "When she was playing with me, I knew that she would one day follow her grandfather's old path!" It's okay now, if Old Man Du knows under the spring, he can also close his eyes! ”

"Until you return the silk book that you swindled from him, I think he will keep watching your back!" A crisp and delicate voice came from outside the open door, and a bright girl in red crossed the towering threshold, put the purple casserole in her hand on the table, and grinned at the old man: "Uncle Li, Professor Zhong is very concerned about the Dunhuang stone inscriptions you rubbed from him, and specially asked me to urge you to make a copy of it for him!" ”

"Whew!" The old man shouted indignantly, "That old horseman! Think you'll be able to eat me by receiving you under the door? I will never forget the fact that he led the team to snatch the silk book from me! Want a copy of rubbing? I won't give it to him even if I wipe my ass! ”

Chu Heng sighed helplessly, gently picked up the purple casserole, put it on the cushion cloth on the side, and glanced at the girl helplessly: "I said Hongluan, how many times have I told you, hot things can't be placed directly on the mahogany, although the furniture here is authentic lacquer, but you also have to take care of it a little, right?" ”

"Hey, hey!" The bright girl stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, turned around and ran out of the door, and after a while, she brought back a pot of turquoise fried rice: "Brother Chu, I added special ingredients to the Yujing rice this time, you will definitely fall in love with this taste!" ”

"Tsk, why don't you take into account the feelings of me, a lonely old man? In front of me, you really don't exist for me? The old man looked at Hongluan, whose face was slightly reddish, and smiled in his mouth, taking advantage of Hongluan's shyness and no time to take care of him, he picked up the rice bowl that Chu Heng put on the table, scooped a bowl of Yujing rice with a full spoon, and quickly sandwiched a few pieces of stuffy and shiny Dongpo meat, and ate it with a comfortable face.

"Uncle Li, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person!" Du Hongluan raised his eyebrows, filled Chu Heng's rice bowl to the brim, and surrounded it with Dongpo meat flowing with red gravy: "Brother Chu, you have to eat more today, this is the first meal I made this year, you can't help but give face!" ”

Chu Heng smiled slightly, took the fried Yujing rice into his mouth, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, Hongluan, your skills are really getting better and better, in a few years, your mother will bow to you!" ”

"That's it! Don't look at who Miss Ben is! Seeing that Chu Heng was eating happily, Hongluan smiled and bent a pair of phoenix eyes, picked up the small bowl of ice porcelain in front of him and chewed it slowly. Peeked at Chu Heng from time to time, with a thick smile flashing in his eyes.

After eating a meal, Uncle Li lay down in the rattan chair contentedly, slowly drank the tea that Chu Heng refilled for him, squinted his eyes in satisfaction, and was about to take a nap as usual, when he was forcibly pulled away by Hongluan and moved towards his dark and low nest: "Uncle Li, you have eaten and slept with Brother Chu in the past few years, and your body is about to become blessed, hurry up and exercise, otherwise your blood lipids will rise again!"
