Sure enough, the development of things was not as simple as Mo Ran and Lin Su imagined, and the two of them looked at the old man lying on the bed and dying, knowing that he could no longer pick up the carving knife.

Is this time going to be so fruitless?

At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside the door, and the little boy's face changed, and he hurriedly ran out.

After Mo Ran and Lin Su glanced at each other, they also went out, only to see two men in high-end suits walking into the courtyard, they were wearing hair wax and sunglasses, looking at the little boy in front of them with great disdain.

"Little mouse, let me ask you, did you take away our master's carving cheats?" One of the oily-haired men asked, and then he said impatiently, "Hand it over!" Stop wasting our time here! ”

Mo Ran and Lin Su looked at the two men with a strong modern atmosphere, and heard Lin Su whisper in Mo Ran's ear: "I know these two people, I met them when I went to an exhibition before, they are two very pompous people, they don't have the ability, they like to brag about themselves and criticize others." ”

Mo Ran frowned and said, "Such a person can actually worship Old Man Wang Qiu as a teacher?" ”

"Grandpa didn't voluntarily accept them as apprentices...... the young man who was called a little mouse turned his head and glanced at the two, and then said: "Don't listen to them, I'm not called a little mouse, I have a name and a surname, my name is Wang Qianlin!" ”

The two men also saw Mo Ran and Lin Su who came out behind Wang Qianlin, the smiles on their faces stiffened, and then they glanced at each other, and one of them asked, "Little mouse, are you so capable?" Did you get two maids for your grandfather? Hahahaha! ”

This was very ugly, and Mo Ran couldn't listen to it anymore, so he said, "What are you pigs called here?" Don't you know that there are still old people resting in the house? ”

After Wang Qianlin heard Mo Ran's words, he suddenly laughed, and then he pointed at the two men and scolded: "Did you hear it!" White-eyed wolf! What is it called here! ”

The man seemed to be annoyed by Mo Ran's attitude, he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to rush up, but he was embarrassed to find that his height was even a little lower than Mo Ran, so he sneered and threatened: "What are you two doing?" ”

"I just came to discuss some things with Mr. Wang, but I didn't expect to meet you." Lin Su said coldly behind Mo Ran's back: "Qian Wan, has it been whitewashed that you were exposed to plagiarizing other people's paintings before?" Why is there still a face jumping in front of me now? ”

"What? You-" The man who was called Qian Wan didn't expect that in this news-closed town, there was still someone who knew his black history, and for a while, his face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't say a word, as if he was angry with Lin Su.

When Wang Qianlin heard this, he said in a cold voice: "What? Plagiarize? Didn't grandpa already say it, as long as the person who plagiarized

, all of them will be expelled from the division! ”

Qian Wan didn't expect that he would meet someone who was also in the design circle in this place, but he saw that his face changed a few times, staring at Mo Ran and Lin Su with indifferent faces, but he couldn't remember where he had seen the two of them, but after all, the two of them had already said Qian Wan's name in front of outsiders, so it meant that they were probably also from H City.

The atmosphere began to gradually become tense, and at this time, a relatively tall man suddenly came out of the door, his skin was dark, his short hair was a little messy, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

He held a wooden stick with different thicknesses at the two ends in his hand, and then slowly walked into the courtyard, staring at the backs of Qian Wan and another man, and said coldly: "Second man, do you dare to come?" ”

Qian Wan stiffened, he turned his head to look at the tall man, and his face changed!

"Water, Brother Shui?" Qian Wan took a few steps back, looked at the man with some trepidation, and then said, "Brother Shui, why are you here?" Didn't you go out and pick herbs? This ......"

"Do you know that I went to pick herbs, so I specially picked this time to come?" The man who was called Brother Shui glanced at Qian Wan and the man next to him coldly, and then said in a low voice: "Second boy, take you and your dog and get out of here for me!" If you dare to come here again, I'll break your legs!" ”

Qian Wan seemed to be particularly afraid of Brother Shui, trembling like chaff under his threat, and hurriedly pulled the man beside him out of here in a hurry.

The courtyard, which had been a little noisy, fell silent, as if the commotion of the recent period had not existed.

When Wang Qianlin saw Brother Shui walking in from outside the door, it was as if he had taken a reassuring pill, and the original tense atmosphere disappeared, so he hurriedly walked up and took the stick in Brother Shui's hand, and said, "Brother Shui, Brother Shui, you're back!" ”

The man named Brother Shui glanced at Mo Ran and Lin Su who were standing under the eaves lightly, and then said, "Well, you first put these herbs I picked back into the medicine jar and boil them, and then give them to your grandfather Wang to drink later." ”

Wang Qianlin nodded, and then returned to the kitchen with a large bamboo basket of medicinal herbs, while Brother Shui picked up a towel and wiped the sweat on his face, and washed his face on the water pipe in the yard.

"Two beautiful women are from the city." Brother Shui didn't seem surprised by the existence of Mo Ran and Lin Su, but asked a little unconcernedly.

Mo Ran stared at the man vigilantly, then nodded and said, "Mr. Gong Jiuqing brought us over." ”

When he heard Gong Jiuqing's name, Brother Shui's movements paused, then he tightened the faucet, looked at Mo Ran, and said with some confusion: "Teacher Gong called you here?" ”

Lin Su nodded, "We have been looking for a craftsman who can do wood carving

Yes, I asked Mr. Gong Jiuqing for help, and he introduced us here. ”

After listening to Lin Su's words, Brother Shui nodded thoughtfully, then he looked at Mo Ran and Lin Su, and said, "But you have also seen Uncle Wang's situation." He's very sick now, let alone carving, and if you ask him to chop a piece of wood now, he won't have the strength at all. ”

Mo Ran and Lin Su naturally saw that because of this, they were so disappointed now.

But when Brother Shui walked into the house and wanted to see the old man's condition as before, he didn't come out again for a long time.

Mo Ran could see that Brother Shui was not hostile to the two of them, and he should be happy to communicate with them, but why did he suddenly stay in Master Wang's room and not come out now?

Mo Ran and Lin Su glanced at each other, and suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Sure enough, when the two of them hurriedly ran to the room where Master Wang lived, they saw Brother Shui sitting in front of Master Wang's bed with his back to them, he lowered his head and looked at the old man lying on the bed with a thin face in silence.

After being silent for a long time, Brother Shui said slowly: "Trouble you, go and call Wang Qianlin over, so that he doesn't need to boil medicine, come and kowtow to the old man." ”

Just when they were arguing with Qian Wan and the others, the old man Wang, who was already terminally ill, stopped breathing silently.

Brother Shui should have known that this day would come sooner or later, so he didn't complain to anyone, but silently asked Mo Ran to call Wang Qianlin over.

Wang Qianlin was processing the medicinal materials that Brother Shui had collected for him before, and after hearing Brother Shui call him over, Wang Qianlin's face suddenly changed, he dropped the medicinal materials in his hand and ran directly to the back room, and then, a crush of collapse came out of it.

Mo Ran and Lin Su didn't go in, the two of them had never faced death so closely, and they didn't dare to look at Wang Qianlin's crying face, they could only listen to his cry, and then sighed.

Mo Ran found a place with an Internet and told Gong Jiuqing about Old Man Wang, Gong Jiuqing was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time, and seemed to be a little stunned, and then he said in a low voice: "When I first met Old Man Wang, his physical condition was already very poor, and thanks to the prescription I prescribed to him over the years, he died like this, and now his qi is exhausted." ”

Mo Ran said: "Lin Su and I plan to leave after attending Old Man Wang's funeral. ”

Gong Jiuqing said solemnly: "Okay, I have one thing I want to ask you, which is to help me buy a jar of yellow flower carving wine and put it on the old man's altar, okay?" This is what I owe him. ”

Mo Ran did not refuse Gong Jiuqing's request.

The funeral was prepared quickly, and at the same time it was very simple, almost half of the people in the town came, they looked at the old man on the black and white photo frame with heavy eyes, and listened to Wang Qianlin silently

Crying.

When all this was over quickly, Brother Shui suddenly found Mo Ran and them.

Because Old Man Wang had passed away, Mo Ran and Lin Su dispelled the idea of staying in this place to find a craftsman, booked a plane ticket, and planned to leave that night, so when Mo Ran saw Brother Shui who appeared in front of him, it was a lie to say that he was not surprised.

Brother Shui's feelings for Old Man Wang are also very deep, so although Brother Shui has tried his best to hide it, Mo Ran can still see his red eyes.

"Now that Old Man Wang has left, you have come for nothing." Brother Shui said lightly.

Mo Ran nodded, and then said: "It's really a pity, I've seen his wood carving works, and Old Man Wang is really a very powerful craftsman." ”
