Chapter 004: Senior Brother is Like a Father
After driving Song Jinyu out of the door, Qin Lanzhou turned around and went upstairs to wash, plunged into the quilt and soon fell asleep.
She loved to sleep since she was a child, in addition to painting, reading and working, plus twice a week of fitness, she basically dedicates the rest of her time to sleep.
This time she fell, and she fell asleep for more than ten hours before the teller Xiaomo dragged her out of bed in the name of Situ Mo asking her to eat.
When she washed up and went downstairs, Situ Mo was already sitting in the kitchen next to the studio waiting for her.
Situ Mo is 13 years older than Qin Lanzhou, and when Qin Lanzhou moved to Yancheng with his parents when he was 12 years old, Situ Mo was already 25 years old.
Ten years have passed in a flash.
Qin Lanzhou gradually grew from a milky little girl to a big girl, but time seemed to have forgotten what flowed from Situ Mo's face, and his appearance never changed at all.
Situ Mo is a meticulous person, not only has excellent fine gold craftsmanship, but his cooking skills are also deeply inherited by Qin Lanzhou's mother Du Caiyu, and he cooks good dishes.
When Qin Lanzhou walked into the courtyard, he smelled a familiar fragrance wafting from the kitchen.
This fragrance is mixed with a little meat and green onion, which makes Qin Lanzhou, who has just woken up, have an appetite:
"Senior brother, have you steamed rice noodles?"
Qin Lanzhou's eyes showed a light like a greedy cat, and he looked towards the table.
There are three dishes and one soup on the table, one rice noodle meat wrapped in lotus leaves, one fried green vegetables, one fried corn with shrimp, and one duck soup with cordyceps...... They are all Qin Lanzhou's favorite food.
"Well, come and eat, if you don't eat it, it's going to be cold-"
Situ Mo smiled faintly and motioned for Qin Lanzhou to sit over.
For so many years, he used to call her nickname "怼怼".
"You're a much better match than my mother. I see, let's just stop striking gold and open a restaurant instead, your craft is guaranteed to make money. ”
Qin Lanzhou patted the sycophants flatteringly, quickly sat down at the dinner table, and picked up the bowl without saying a word.
The rice noodle meat made by Situ Mo was improved on the basis of Du Caiyu, which made Qin Lanzhou eat it so much.
While eating, she complained about the various customers in the Molan workshop recently, Situ Mo quietly listened to her describe the people and things in the store, smiled faintly, and did not speak, but from time to time put vegetables in her bowl.
Her father Qin Yi was a goldsmith of the older generation, and Situ Mo was his eldest disciple, but later his father injured his hand in a car accident and had to give up this business.
So she later learned art, most of which were taught by Situ Mo, but her father often guided her.
In Qin Lanzhou's consistent memory, Qin Yi was serious and old-fashioned, far less gentle and kind than his senior brother Situ Mo.
I remember when I was a child, my father originally thought that she was a daughter's family and didn't want her to learn a trade, but she was interested in this industry.
Later, it was she who cried and shouted to learn, and Situ Mo agreed to teach her.
The days of learning art are very hard, it is easy to make mistakes at the beginning, her father never pities her for being a girl, every time she makes a mistake, she uses a bamboo strip to smoke, and most of the time Situ Mo protects her.
When she really couldn't protect it, Situ Mo accompanied her to be punished...... As many times she suffered, he followed as many as he could, and it was not possible to take less.
Qin Lanzhou was eating, and couldn't help but think of how good her senior brother had been to her over the years, but as soon as she looked up and saw her senior brother's blandly face, her heart throbbed.
Since that incident happened three years ago, the smile on Situ Mo's face has been decreasing day by day......
Qin Lanzhou knew that he seemed calm on the surface, but there was still blood in his heart, and the wound had not healed so far.
Situ Mo was very secretive about that matter, Qin Lanzhou didn't dare to ask, and he couldn't ask.
Thinking of that bad thing, Qin Lanzhou suddenly lost interest in eating.
She put down the bowl and chopsticks, but there was still most of the rice in the bowl and the dishes that her brother had forcibly sandwiched into her bowl.
"I'm a picky eater again, eat these vegetables and shrimp in the bowl, and you can leave the rice if you can't finish it."
Seeing her put down the dishes and chopsticks, Situ Mo frowned slightly and said.
"Senior brother, if you laugh, I'll eat them all. If you don't laugh, I won't eat it. ”
Qin Lanzhou clasped his hands, raised his eyebrows, and grimaced.
I don't know if it's because of the inertia since I was a child or what, in front of Situ Mo, she always has a little naughty and coquettishness, like a child who doesn't grow up.
Situ Mo was amused by her grimace and finally showed his face.
Qin Lanzhou picked up the bowl without saying a word, although he had no appetite, he still ate all the food in the bowl, and at the end he didn't forget to give Situ Mo a sweet date:
"Such a delicious meal, I have to give you a name for "A Bite of China". You've done a great job and hope to keep up the good work! ”
She gave Situ Mo a thumbs up, causing Situ Mo to smile faintly:
"You're the naughtiest."
After leaving the kitchen after eating, Qin Lanzhou returned to his studio.
She lifted the curtain to check Situ Mo's progress, and found that during the time she was sleeping, the pair of hammered lions he made for the client had already taken shape.
Arriving at this process so quickly, it must have been at the expense of sleep time.
Qin Lanzhou was secretly distressed, turned around and returned to his studio, and began to make a new style.
She chose a piece of gold, lit a flamethrower, and put the gold in the mercury, and the flames quickly burst up, and the gold gradually melted into mud......
