Patriotic Mansion.

The two brothers, Li Dejian and Li Dexian, have been in a joyful and jubilant atmosphere since they returned home from other places.

For the warm greetings of the housekeepers and maidservants, the two brothers also nodded with a smile in response, and then went to see their parents in the main hall.

After sending Concubine Zheng Xian's personal female officer, Li Yi buried his head in the study and continued to start the unfinished portrait carving.

It wasn't until the arrival of Shen Shi that Li Yi finally completed this great project.

Yue'er's portrait carving is finally completed.

While stretching his hands to relax and staring at the lifelike portrait of Yue'er, Li Yi sighed with relief: "I didn't expect that the art of carving portraits is really time-consuming and laborious......"

Li Yi originally thought in his heart that according to the carving techniques he learned from the old craftsman, carving portraits would become much easier.

However, when he really started to do it himself, Li Yi suddenly found that the craft of carving is indeed quite complicated.

And when carving, you can't be rashly distracted.

Otherwise, once there is a mistake in any link, the entire carved portrait will basically be destroyed.

Looking at the portrait he carved by himself for the first time, although it was still incomplete and there were still some small flaws on it, but the first time he carved it, he could almost look like Yue'er, and Li Yi was already satisfied.

"Has Childe finished carving?" Yue'er, who was practicing calligraphy on the side, heard Li Yi's exclamation, and immediately moved her eyes to the desk.

However, with the effort of turning her eyebrows, Yue'er saw a lifelike portrait at a glance, standing on the desk at this time.

Moreover, the figure and face are exactly the same as hers.

"The portrait carved by Childe turned out to be Yue'er!"

While her heart was full of surprise, Yue'er put down the brush with a happy face, ran quickly behind Li Yi, and while rubbing Li Yi's shoulders and massaging, she stared at the portrait and laughed silly.

The two small dimples on her cheeks, at this moment, are as gorgeous as a blooming flower under the backdrop of a smile.

"It turns out that Childe bought the green dragon wood back, and it turned out to be used to carve human portraits!"

"This first portrait was carved by Childe...... It's Yue'er..."

"Childe is so good to Yue'er!"

Yue'er was silly happy in her heart, as soon as she thought that this portrait turned out to be herself, Yue'er couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the laughter suddenly came into Li Yi's ears.

Hearing Yue'er's stealing music, Li Yi shook his head with a smile, and suddenly asked, "Silly girl, is it good-looking?" ”

"Beautiful." Yue'er replied with a smile.

"But what do I think, this figure is not fully carved yet? There are even some small flaws on it that need to be dealt with carefully? Li Yi quipped.

"Don't deal with it, Childe." Yue'er hurriedly shook her head and said with a serious face, "It's already very good." ”

Li Yi glanced at Yue'er and said, "Where is it good?" ”

"Anywhere!" Yue'er smiled and nodded, then suddenly pursed her lips and said seriously, "As long as it is carved by Gongzi, it looks good!" ”

"......" Li Yi suddenly burst into tears and laughter.

Yue'er, a stupid girl, is really stupid and not picky at all, she is really stupid and hopeless.

However, being able to hear Yue'er's praise, Li Yi was still quite happy in his heart.

After all, this portrait was originally carved to give it to her.

"Okay, let's go and practice calligraphy, I'll polish it again." Gently patted Yue'er's hand, signaling that Yue'er didn't need to continue the massage, Li Yi bowed down again, picked up the knife, and began to seriously polish the flaws on the portrait.

"Uh...... Yue'er knew, Childe ......" As soon as she heard that Li Yi asked her to go back to practice calligraphy, Yue'er instantly pouted aggrievedly, and the boss reluctantly sat back in his seat and began to continue practicing calligraphy.

However, at this moment, Yue'er's attention was not on practicing calligraphy at all, but completely fell on Li Yi.

While pretending to practice calligraphy seriously, she took the opportunity to sneak a glance, but when she saw Li Yi's handsome appearance of carving portraits seriously, Yue'er couldn't help but be fascinated.

Even the brush in her right hand had already scratched her forehead, and Yue'er didn't know it.

"Madame once told Yue'er that men look best when they are serious, but how does Yue'er think that Gongzi is super good-looking no matter when?"

"Could it be Madame...... Lie to Yue'er, right?"

While Yue'er peeked at Li Yi in a daze, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, was the sentence that the Red Whisk Girl said to her before false?

Because Yue'er found that it was not right at all to apply this sentence to Li Yi.

Blinking in confusion, Yue'er scratched her little head again, completely unable to figure it out.

At this time, Li Yi's magnetic voice suddenly came into Yue'er's ears coldly: "Silly girl, why are you stunned?" Why don't you hurry up and practice calligraphy? If you don't complete today's calligraphy task, don't want this portrait! ”

"Ah!!h Yue'er, who was in a daze, was suddenly startled by Li Yi, and her right cheek was accidentally scratched again.

Yue'er hurriedly held the brush tightly in her hand, pretended to be serious and began to practice calligraphy, her face was suddenly red and hot, and she had a feeling of being a thief in her heart.

At the same time, she cautiously turned her eyes to look back, but she found that Li Yi did not turn around, but continued to bury her head in serious carving.

In the air, only the "rustle" sound of Yue'er practicing calligraphy and the "collision" sound of polishing the portrait came out indifferently.

After a long time, about the time of unitary time, Li Yi finally finished polishing the portrait and put it aside with satisfaction.

"Whirring ......"

While breathing a sigh of relief, Li Yi turned his eyebrows and swept away, but seeing that Yue'er was practicing calligraphy seriously, he picked up another piece of green dragon wood and began to carve the portrait of another woman according to the memory in his mind.

Time flies by, like flowing water, and there is no return.

Outside, the sky was getting dark.

At this time, outside the door of Li Yi's study, a series of slight and small footsteps gradually sounded, as if someone was coming with a cat.

However, Li Yi's attention at the moment was completely focused on the carving, and he did not notice this subtle step.

On the contrary, not far from Li Yi's side, Yue'er, who had finally finished practicing her words seriously, heard footsteps outside the door, she immediately swept her eyes to the door and stared at it in miniature.

Immediately, Yue'er saw an extremely familiar figure.

"Gong ......" Yue'er's lips opened slightly, and she was just about to get up from her seat to salute, but the person who came suddenly put her index finger against her lips, and at the same time shook her head slightly at Yue'er, signaling her not to make a sound.

Seeing this, Yue'er had to nod honestly and sit quietly in place.

At this moment, Li Liqing, who entered the house with a cat, saw that Li Yi was burying his head in serious work, and he didn't even notice that he had come in, and the curiosity in his heart rose instantly.

"What the hell is Li Bo'an doing? So seriously? ”

Thinking like this in his heart, Li Lizhi was as light as a cat, and the cat came to Li Yi with her feet lightly, her eyes swept slightly, and Li Lizhi suddenly saw a familiar figure, carving in Li Yi's hands.

Moreover, the portrait face carved in Li Yi's hand is actually none other than her Li Liqian!

"Hehe, Li Bo'an, this is ...... Planning to surprise me? ”

"You're still carving a portrait of me......"

Li Lizhen's heart was suddenly full of surprise.

But seeing that Li Yi carved so seriously, she couldn't bear to disturb Li Yi, but sat lightly beside Yue'er, supported her chin with one hand, leaned on the table, and stared at Li Yi with a smile on her face.

As if she had eaten honey in her heart, Li Lizhi smiled happily.

In the air, except for the sound of Li Yi's carving, it was exceptionally silent.

Yue'er saw Li Lizhi smirking like this, and while she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she also clasped her hands slightly and stared at Li Yi with a smile.

After a long time passed, outside the study where Li Yi was, Li Dejian's hearty voice suddenly came.

"Third brother, hurry up and come out for dinner, what are you doing alone in the house? In the past half a day, I haven't seen a movement in the house, isn't it that you ------ Guan Gong to walk in Maicheng and collapse? Ha ha! ”

With a joke in his mouth, Li Dejian strode into Li Yi's study, with a smile of "no deep meaning" on his face.

It's just that at the moment when he stepped into the study, Li Dejian's whole person was stunned like a log.

The smile on his face also disappeared without a trace in an instant.

I saw that in Li Yi's study, the person sitting with Yue'er was none other than the fifth princess Li Liqing, Li Dejian was stunned, his cheeks twitched slightly, and the corners of his mouth opened and opened.

For a while, Li Dejian didn't know whether he should salute Li Liqian, and whether he should explain to Li Lizhen what he said just now...... It's just a joke to tease the brothers.

Moreover, after encountering this embarrassing scene, Li Dejian felt that it was not for him to leave immediately, nor was he still staying where he was, so he simply chose to keep his mouth shut, and his thoughts were racing to find a good way to resolve the embarrassment.

"Big brother, what's wrong with you?" Fortunately, at this time, after hearing Li Dejian's shout, while putting down the portrait in his hand, Li Yi suddenly turned around to look at Li Dejian, and asked with curiosity on his face.

"Ahem...... No, nothing. Li Dejian smiled awkwardly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he suddenly waved his hand in a hurry, and said intermittently, "That...... The third brother is a brother...... Brother Wei suddenly remembered...... There's still something to deal with, so let's go first..."

After throwing down this sentence, Li Dejian immediately turned around and fled from Li Yi's study in a gloomy manner.

But in an instant, Li Dejian's figure can no longer be seen.

“？？？” Li Yi looked inexplicable, completely unaware of what was going on.

Li Yi felt that today's eldest brother Li Dejian was really acting very strangely, and he looked like he was running away in a hurry, as if there was something scary in his house.

Just as Li Yi was about to turn his head and glance around the house, another voice suddenly came from outside the door of the study.

"Third brother, hurry up and come out for dinner!"

Li De's voice suddenly came into the ears of Li Yi in the room, and at the same time, Li De's figure also appeared in front of the door of the study in an instant.

Just as Li Decheng was about to say another word, he saw Li Li's figure with his eyes.

MMP！

Lao Tzu fell for the despicable villain of the eldest brother!

Li Dehui suddenly scolded in his heart.

"Ahem, that, third brother, for brother...... It seems that he went to the wrong room, haha......" Without waiting for Li Yi to speak, Li Dexuan quickly smiled awkwardly, and then respectfully saluted the house, and then fled like the wind.

The panicked appearance was exactly the same as Li Dejian's, and he almost disappeared without a trace.

Li Yi suddenly looked at the question marks on his head, and instantly felt a feeling of crying and laughing in his heart.

"My two brothers, are they all funny?" Li Yi shook his head speechlessly and laughed secretly, turned around and was about to call Yue'er and go out to eat together.

However, at this moment, not far from the outside of Li Yi's study, Li Dexian's angry voice suddenly sounded.

"Big brother, you despicable and shameless villain, don't hide in the house if you have the ability! Hurry up and get out of here, the little brother is not finished with you today, let's go to the martial arts training ground to fight! ”

Li Dexiang's voice seemed to be like him...... I was angry when I was robbed of my daughter-in-law.

"Hey......" Li Yi was speechless, and sighed slightly, there are no one but himself on such two funny brothers.

"Yue'er, have you finished practicing the words?" As he spoke, Li Yi turned around and looked in the direction where Yue'er was.

It's just that in the next second, Li Yi was stunned in place.
