After washing, Li Le went to the Qiaoshou jewelry store, where he planned to stay for most of the National Day.

When passing by the bank, Li Le went to the card to withdraw 1,000 yuan, which was Tang Chongming's living expenses that Tang Chongming regularly called him every month.

When I came to the front of the store, there was a huge event sign at the door: National Day Reward, 100% off over 1000,......

The store is also overcrowded at the moment, which is different from the usual dispersal.

Yao Hong was busy entertaining customers, and when she saw Li Le, she just nodded and smiled slightly and continued to greet customers. Zhen Yan didn't know where she went, and she didn't see anyone. Li Le walked straight to the workshop.

No matter what the situation outside is, Li Le only needs to do his job at the moment.

Picking up the carving tools, Li Le calmed down and began his own creation. In the small workshop, only the sound of machines and knives rubbing against each other remains.

Time passed little by little, and at noon, Yao Hong came in with food, and Li Le's breakfast was late, and he didn't feel too hungry at this time, so he put it aside first.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the door was opened again, and it was Zhen Yan who had disappeared in the morning.

"Huh! It's Sister Zhen! Li Le saw that it was Zhen Yan and stopped what he was doing.

"Xiaole, are you on vacation?" Zhen Yan was still smiling.

"Yes, it was left for seven days. Prepare to take time out of your spare time to work for a few days these days. ”

"So hard? Then your sister Zhen thanks you. ”

"Don't say that, I haven't been here to work seriously for two days. I'm still thinking of telling you if I can find another full-time carver to replace me, after all, I can't go on like this. Hearing Sister Zhen's words, Li Le felt a little ashamed.

"What, don't you want to do it here with Sister Zhen?"

"I didn't ...... Not! I mean I can work part-time, but I can't replace it full-time. Sister Zhen, you helped me so much, and took care of me so much, so I don't want to do it, then I'm really sorry for people! As soon as Li Le heard what Zhen Yan meant, he hurriedly explained.

"Okay, Sister Zhen knows what you mean, so I'll tease you. Sister Zhen came to you to tell you about this, and I didn't know how to talk to you yet, for fear that you would have ideas after listening to it, but this will already know what you think, and Sister Zhen will be relieved. ”

"Huh? Sister Zhen, do you mean that you have found the carver? ”

"Hmmm! I came back from studying art in Suzhou, and I will come to work tomorrow. ”

"That's a good feeling!" When Li Le heard Zhen Yan's words, he suddenly felt that a stone fell in his heart, after all, it was not good to drag on this matter for a long time.

"What about you in the future, if you want to come over, Sister Zhen is warmly welcomed, and if you are busy, go and do your own thing. You're still in school, so focus on your studies. You don't have to worry about money, just the salary you give Sister Zhen these days. ”

Hearing this, Li Le only felt warm in her heart, but she couldn't accept Zhen Yan's kindness, this love was too great.

"Sister Zhen, I can accept anything else, but I can't do without you, I know you are good to me, but I will be uneasy if I accept your money."

"Why, do you have to be so clear with your sister Zhen?" Zhen Yan had a pretty face, pretending to be angry.

"Huh? Sister Zhen, don't be embarrassed for me, you know my temperament. If you have to do this, then I really don't dare to come to you again in the future. Li Le's face was bitter, but his tone was very resolute.

"Success, success, success! Listen to you. However, if you can, you should try to help Sister Zhen as much as possible these days, and you know that business is slightly better these days. Seeing Li Le's resolute attitude, Zhen Yan no longer insisted on it.

"Of course, even if you don't say it, I don't want to leave!"

"Okay, then you're busy, Sister Zhen is going outside!"

"Hmmm! Good. ”

Li Le saw Zhen Yan leave, and after taking the time to eat the food that was still a little warm, he started to work again.

The National Day holiday is Golden Week, and it is also a good day for people who are tired from work and want to rest to travel and relax.

On such a day, in a courtyard in a small alley, there was a weak figure washing clothes.

These days, Liu Yunyao has become the pillar of the family, buying vegetables, cooking and laundry every day. This is not what a young girl in the prime of her youth should do, she should be accompanied by her girlfriend or boyfriend at the moment, shopping around, looking at beautiful clothes, or enjoying a meal in a clean restaurant.

Liu Yunyao's heart was extremely tired, but there was a belief in her heart that supported her. That is, the father will get better, and her family will still be full and happy.

Rubbing the clothes in her hands, she thought to herself that she should go buy some food later.

"Where's the laundry?"

Liu Yunyao, who heard the voice, was suddenly startled, as if she didn't notice that there was already an extra person behind her.

Looking back, the chubby figure and the big bag of vegetables in his hand were none other than Li Le.

"What are you doing again?"

"Today's National Day, I'll come to see you, bring some food by the way, and eat here in the evening." Li Le didn't bother to be polite to her, her temperament was mostly a forced acceptance, and she only took the initiative herself.

"No, you don't!" Liu Yunyao still has that cold attitude.

Li Le didn't say anything more, anyway, no matter how much she said, she would refuse, so she simply carried the bag and walked directly to the house.

This made Liu Yunyao stunned. came back to his senses and wanted to stop Li Le, but saw that his back was already displayed at the door. Then he sat down again, and then washed his clothes.

When she finished washing and drying her clothes, Li Le took a basin to wash vegetables under the faucet, so she really looked like two young couples.

Liu Yunyao simply went directly to the inner room after finishing it, and Li Le was busy outside alone. He only stayed in the store until about four o'clock today and left, then went to the vegetable market and then went straight here.

The last time I saw Liu Yunyao, his complexion was not very good, so he specially bought some red dates today and prepared stewed chicken soup to replenish Liu Yunyao's blood.

Instead of using a pressure cooker, it is slowly boiled out in a clay pot on a coal stove. The chicken is eroded and the aroma is wanton. Li Le served a bowl first, and after it was cold for a while, he walked towards the back room.

At this moment, the door of the inner room was not closed, and Liu Yunyao was reading a book that seemed to be about design.

Putting the chicken soup on the table, Li Le said to her, "Let's drink some chicken soup while it's hot, and then we'll see it when it's over." After that, he went out, knowing that he would stay here, and she wouldn't drink the chicken soup when it was cold.

After the meal was ready, after Li Le shouted Liu Yunyao, he ate two bites casually, and then filled two people's portions in a thermos flask and headed towards the hospital.

When she saw Mother Liu again, she didn't have the surprise she had the day before yesterday, but a loving face. Father Liu was also very happy about Li Le's arrival.

After eating, Liu Mu took Li Le's hand and asked with a smile, "Xiao Li, do you like my Yaoyao?"

This time it really made Li Le question.

Seeing that Li Le was a little sluggish, Liu Mu also felt funny.

"I like you kid, my family is in the current situation, you are an irrelevant person who can help us like this, if it is just a classmate, you will definitely not be able to do this, I have no objection to you dating Yaoyao, but we are afraid that our current situation will hurt you."

"Auntie, don't say that. Senior sister, I'm afraid she won't like me. ”

"Then you told your aunt that you like Yaoyao?" Liu Mu continued to ask.

"Uh...... Like. Under Liu's mother's loving gaze, Li Le was not lying, anyway, he would feel moved in the face of Liu Yunyao, and he would want to take care of her, which should be regarded as liking.

"That's okay, Yaoyao will be handed over to Auntie, she doesn't want such a good person, what else does she want to find." Mother Liu's tone revealed a sense of joy.

But this frightened Li Le, he didn't dare to let Liu's mother lead the rope, if Liu Yunyao was forced to tell the truth of the matter, then he would be a really good son-in-law and become a stinky **.

"Auntie, don't go about this. It's not good if you go, just take your time. ”

"How's that going to work? Wouldn't that make you feel wronged? "Mother Liu's attitude is very resolute.

"Auntie, you just listen to me. Nowadays, young people treat feelings differently, if my sister really doesn't like me, I won't be happy together, right? ”

After hearing this, Liu's mother was also a little silent, although he liked Li Le, but if his daughter really didn't like it, it would really be difficult to twist.

"Auntie, we're not big yet, let's wait for time, take your time, let everyone have a process, what do you say?" Li Le continued to persuade, he was really afraid that Liu Mu would insert a lever between the two of them and play a bad role. Originally, the relationship between the two was a little stiff now, and it could not be alleviated for a while.

"That's okay, Auntie listen to you. Alas...... It's just that you're miserable, kid. Liu Mu thought about it for a long time, and finally let go and promised not to interfere in their affairs again.

Li Le also breathed a sigh of relief, "Auntie, there's nothing bitter or bitter, you just need to take care of your uncle now, and you don't have to worry about anything else." ”

"You kid, I really don't know what to say about you." Liu Mu's face was relieved, obviously very satisfied with Li Le.

"Okay, Auntie, you rest, I'll go back first." After saying goodbye, Li Le returned to Liu's house again.

Liu Yunyao seemed to have finished eating, the door of the inner room was closed again, and after shouting, she went home.

In the evening, Li Le was ready to carve, and Li Siyun's girl asked him to deliver the goods after the National Day.

Li Siyun wanted a sleeping beauty, and Li Le didn't know what she wanted, so she had to imagine the appearance of the sleeping beauty in her mind.

Thinking back to the movies he had watched, the books he had read, the pictures he had watched, and so on, Li Le slowly conceived the appearance of Sleeping Beauty in his mind.

In a quiet room, on a bed covered with green vines, a woman with a peerless face slept soundly on her side. The green silk exudes, it is infinite tenderness, thin wisps, and there are thousands of enchanting. Inadvertently, the bare skin is as clear as jade, and the beautiful face hides serenity and tranquility.

Li Le picked out a single core, the material of which is the iron head core, looking at its surface, the oil color has penetrated, it is obviously a good old core.

As the carving progressed, the moon gradually rose, and under the starry sky, the lights of each house were extinguished, and the sound of traffic on the road gradually faded away. In the room, only the preoccupied Li Le, who was like a snake walking between his fingers, had not rested, and he seemed to have forgotten the time and everything around him.

It was late at night, and it was almost two o'clock in the morning that Li Le sketched out the outline of the whole body.

Looking at the time, Li Le found that it was already more than two o'clock, and then hurriedly climbed into bed and went to sleep. This night, he dreamed of the sleeping beauty, the beauty's face was like Liu Yunyao, and it was like Li Siyun, as if no one was like it, and it was like a combination of the two.

For the next two days, Li Le repeated the same life, carving in Zhen Yan's shop every day, and running to Liu Yunyao at four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

He has already seen the carver in the shop, named Gong Yuefu. In his forties, the carvers are quite passable. When I first saw Li Le, I still looked down on him, but after seeing him start work, my contempt suddenly put away.

Then the enthusiasm made Li Ledu feel a little uncomfortable, and the gesture of calling him a brother and a brother was almost like a mother's birth.

Li Le didn't have any emotions about his changes before and after, after all, he was the person invited by Sister Zhen, and he was also the one who indirectly liberated himself, and the reality was nothing at all.

Yesterday, my aunt Li Hong called again and asked her to go over for dinner today, so Li Le stopped what she was doing at 11 o'clock at noon.

When I came to my aunt's house again, my sister-in-law was much better last time, although he was not particularly enthusiastic, but at least he could ask two words, which made Li Le relax a lot, at least not as restrained as last time.

Li Tiantian still looked vicious, which made Li Le feel a little funny.

After eating, Li Hong asked Li Le, "Is your life at school okay lately?"

"It's okay, I was in military training a few days ago, so it's not over."

"My aunt has been busy these days, I didn't go to you, you see that you have lost a lot of weight, is the military training too hard?"

"It's not hard, I just want to lose weight, and I also take advantage of this military training to lose weight." After a month of military training, Li Le has really lost weight at this time, although he is still more than 170, but he does not have the feeling of fat accumulation before, and the whole person looks a lot more cheerful.

……

chatted with my aunt for more than half an hour, and basically she was shushing and asking for warmth, which made Li Le's heart warm. It's a good feeling that someone cares.

In the afternoon, he still stayed in the store, and with Gong Yuefu at this time, Li Le's speed of making things was also much faster. He controls the main process himself, and the rest is basically completed by Gong Yuefu.

I still went to Liu Yunyao at night as usual, and I came over every day for the past two days, and Liu Yunyao seemed to be used to it. Every time, Li Le was left to do it herself, and she stayed in the back room most of the time. Mother Liu's eyes are basically like half a son now, and every time she sends food over, she has to talk to Li Le for a while, and most of the time she tells him about Liu Yunyao's past.

Li Le now knows more and more about Liu Yunyao, and he deeply understands why the old saying goes, if you can conquer your mother-in-law first, you will be more than half successful.

Mother Liu's mother is really a textbook about Liu Yunyao, and she told Li Le clearly what her preferences and personality were.

When I got home at night, it was already past eight o'clock, and Li Le, who had taken a shower and was about to continue carving Sleeping Beauty, suddenly received a phone call. When I picked up the mobile phone and looked at it, I never thought it was Tang Chongming's.

"Hey!"

"Xiaole, are you on vacation?" Tang Chongming's voice came from there.

"Let it go!"

"For how long?"

"Seven days!"

"Come over tomorrow!"

Thinking that he wanted to help Sister Zhen and take care of Liu Yunyao, Li Le instinctively wanted to refuse. Again, he hasn't figured out how to deal with his relationship with Tang Chongming yet.

"Hey, did you hear that?" Tang Chongming's voice was plain but had a majesty, perhaps the boss of the company, the momentum of long-term training.

"Can I not go?"

"What, don't want to come? Or do you want me to go over? ”

When Li Le heard this, he was immediately frightened, if he really wanted Tang Chongming to come over, he didn't want it.

To let Tang Chongming know that he is working outside to earn money, and he doesn't know what to think, after all, he still asked him for 5,000, and he is still in school. Besides, Tang Chongming came over, and he couldn't do anything.

"Okay, then I'll go over tomorrow." Li Le said helplessly.

"Then it's decided!" Then Tang Chongming hung up the phone.

Li Le also felt very troubled at the moment, and promised Sister Zhen to help her on National Day, but it was obviously impossible to achieve it at this moment, and Liu Yunyao was afraid that she would not be able to go there for two days.

After thinking for a while, Li Le called Zhen Yan.

"Hey! Is it Sister Zhen? I'm Lai Le. ”

"Xiaole, what's wrong, it's something wrong to call your sister Zhen so late?"

"That's right, I have something to do outside tomorrow and the next two days, and I may not be able to go to the store."

"Oh! Okay, you go get busy. ”

"I feel very embarrassed, and I told you that I would help in the store on National Day, but I can't do it at this time."

"Okay, what's polite to Sister Zhen, just be busy with yours, Sister Zhen is fine."

…… After talking to Zhen Yan for a while, Li Le hung up the phone, and saw that Sister Zhen didn't blame herself, but Li Le felt even more guilty.

After finishing it, I remembered that Liu Yunyao was going to go by myself, and after putting on his clothes, Li Le went out.

When she came to Liu Yunyao's house, the door was locked, but the lights inside were still on, obviously she was at home.

There was a knock on the door, but in a moment, there was the sound of trivial footsteps inside.

When the door opened, Liu Yunyao's face showed a stunned expression, and then returned to a cold demeanor.

"Why are you here again so late?"

"I'm here to talk to you, I'm going out for two days, and I may not be able to come in these two days."

"What do you have to do with me when you go out? It's not that you can't live without it in my family. As he spoke, he prepared to close the door.

Li Le's eyes were quick, and he stretched out his thighs directly and stucked the door shut, "Wait a minute!" As he spoke, he took out two hundred yuan from his pocket, and then stretched it out, "You take this, I won't get some food for yourself in the next two days, don't save it." ”

"I don't want it! You take it. ”

Seeing that she had no intention of taking over, Li Le threw the money directly into the door, "Whether you want it or not is your business, whether you give it or not is my business, if you want to, you can use it as firewood and burn it, I'll go!" ”

After saying that, Li Le withdrew his leg. The door was also closed directly with Liu Yunyao's strong hand. Without looking at her reaction, Li Le turned around and left.

When Liu Yunyao picked up the money on the ground and opened the door again, she saw that Li Le had already walked far away. If it was really like Li Le to burn it, she really couldn't do it, and then saved the money in her hand and stood there blankly.
