When I got home, it was already dark, and the lights in Zhao's house were dim, which seemed very warm in this late summer and early autumn.

When Zhou Mujiao was still the president of Shengshi Group, the time to return home every day was uncertain, but no matter how late the weather was, her grandmother would wait until she came back to rest, Zhou Mujiao persuaded her several times, and she was going to get angry, so the old lady touched her head and looked distressed: "Grandmother doesn't really like to endure hardships, grandmother just wants Gillian to know that there are people waiting for you at home." ”

After her grandmother passed away, she didn't let her family wait for her, but the light at the door of the house was always on, no matter how late she came back and how hard it was, as long as she saw the light, she would know that she was home, she could relax, and someone would protect her.

In a different time and space, although there is no concern for those relatives of the Zhou family, the touching brought to her by this light is the same.

Not to mention, there are four little ones who don't eat, and they sit on the threshold and wait, about to see through the autumn water.

Xiao Wu heard the bell first, he paused, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and was about to listen carefully, when the eighteen next to him had already cheered, and his little body flew out: "Sister Jiaojiao!" Eldest brother! You're back! ”

The sixth and ninth junior high schools also rushed over, squeaking and jumping around in front of the ox cart, while Xiao Wu stood in place, wrinkling his little face, until he clearly saw the faces of Zhou Mujiao and Zhao Yunjing, he stepped forward: "Sister, Brother Zhao, you are back." ”

Eighteen had already climbed onto Zhou Mujiao, and although he immediately got off the ground after getting off the ox cart, he still held Zhou Mujiao's legs, his round and white face was full of joy, and his eyes were shining: "Sister Jiaojiao, the little fifth brother has been waiting for you to come back for a day, and I am angry!" ”

Zhou Mujiao stretched out her paws towards Xiao Wu's face, who had finally raised baby fat, and pinched it gently: "Xiao Wu is really angry?" ”

"Nope."

Eighteen continued to complain: "There is, there is, and I still have a fight with the sixth junior high!" Sister Jiaojiao, the little fifth brother is so powerful, in the past, he used to hug him when he wanted to hug him in the sixth year of junior high school, but now he can't beat him in the sixth year of junior high school! The little fifth brother can protect Eighteen and Sister Jiaojiao, it's great! ”

Xiao Wu covered the little girl's mouth, and said the most cowardly words with an expressionless face: "Don't hit someone in the face, wait for a light." ”

Zhou Mujiao walked over and wanted to pick him up like she did at the beginning, but she was embarrassed.

Xiao Wu is taller, has a strong physique, and weighs nearly seventy pounds, how can she hold it casually? After trying a few times, I gave up.

Looking at his height again, he has reached one meter three or four, and in two years, I am afraid that he will surpass her, and after the age of sixteen, I am afraid that he will be as tall as Zhao Yunjing.

The future general of Daliang, tall, sturdy and good-looking, when the time comes, he will wear armor and fresh clothes and angry horses, I don't know how many girls' hearts will be harvested, and when the time comes, it will be a big problem for him!

It's a headache to think about.

Zhou Mujiao couldn't help but sigh: "Our little five has really become a man, and my sister can't hold it." ”

"Little five hugs Sister."

Saying that, Xiao Wu easily picked up the person.

Zhou Mujiao was dumbfounded, and then Eighteen stretched out her hands to her: "Sister Jiaojiao doesn't cry, you can't hold Xiao Wu, you can hug Eighteen, Nineteen, and Sixth!" ”

The ninth year is one year younger than the fifth younger, and it is normal for the height and physique to be less than the fifth smaller, but the sixth is younger than the fifth smaller, and the physique is not as good as the fifth smaller, and his skin is whiter than the fifth smaller, and he looks weak and weak, and he is simply the kind of waste that has no two strengths, so it is quite annoying.

The fight between the sixth and the fifth day today was because of the quarrel in advance, and then it became a heads-up, and finally it became the sixth day of the first year to humiliate himself, and he was unilaterally beaten by the little five.

"Hmph, it's amazing to be able to fight, I know more words than you!"

Chu Jiu looked at this and looked at that: "Chu 6, I know more words than you two!" ”

Suddenly, the ninth day of the first month became the common enemy of the sixth and fifth of the first month, and the two of them chased after the real nine, shouting while chasing: "The ninth day of the first month!" Hold it! Don't run! We're fighting! ”

Aunt Zhao smiled and shouted 'beware', and said to Zhou Mujiao: "Gillian, the children are fine, you go to take a bath, your Uncle Zhao is stir-frying, and you will be able to eat soon!" ”

The clean room of the Zhao family is just a simple shower room built up with wooden boards, although there is a well in their yard now, and it is very convenient to take a bath, but people who are used to using the shower head and lying in the bathtub always feel that this condition is very simple, and they can't take a shower happily, and they are always unhappy.

Fortunately, the new house is already under construction, there is a relatively advanced bathroom, dry and wet separation is a must, after all, this homestead does not need to take extra money to buy, there are bricks and silver, how big the circle is, and when the house is built, her quality of life can be guaranteed.

Although Uncle Zhao's brick-burning plan is relatively smooth, it is always a manual operation, compared to modern times, the efficiency is still much lower, Zhou Mujiao's embroidery workshop is the style of the front and back yards, the front yard is used to make clothes for the embroidery girls, and the backyard is used to make warehouses and two dormitories for the staff on duty.

Zhou Mujiao used it to live in herself, and the planning was a three-story small bungalow, but in order not to be so prominent, she still built it according to the style of this era in appearance, and there was something in the house, in short, it was comfortable to live in.

At dinner, Uncle Zhao reported the progress of burning bricks and building a house, and said with flying eyebrows: "Gillian, I think it's boring to burn bricks today, and the bricks are so boring. ”

As he spoke, he dragged a basket of bricks over.

Some bricks are indeed carved with flowers, plants, birds and insects, and some bricks have simply changed their style, directly turning the entire brick into something else.

For example, this bunch of millet.

Although the handiwork looks a little rough, and the color is still the original color of the red brick, the appearance of this grain, Shen Yun, has a seven-eight-point likeness.

Uncle Zhao also carved beams and painted buildings on bricks, and also used more than a dozen bricks to draw a story of Chang'e running to the moon!

Zhou Mujiao exclaimed: "Uncle Zhao, who did you learn this brick carving technique from?!" Very good! ”

"Messing around on bricks is brick carving?"

"How can this be nonsense? This flower, this grass, this bird, and this villain are painted eighteen, right? It's also very expressive. Uncle Zhao, if you refine your skills a little more, you will be able to keep up with the craftsmen in the palace, and maybe you will soon surpass them. ”

As the saying goes, the apprentice of the church starves to death the master, any carving technology, in ancient times has always been not passed on, Uncle Zhao can figure it out by himself, whether it is talent or mistaken, it is a good thing, if the future can be among the famous, or participate in the construction of some important buildings, it will be able to leave a lasting future.

Uncle Zhao was happy, he was just casually doing it with modesty in his mouth, and he had already made a decision in his heart, he must study hard, and he must live up to Zhou Mujiao's praise today.

Aunt Zhao was helpless, so she quickly changed the topic: "Zhao Dahai, immediately put aside your artworks and hurry up to eat!" By the way, Yun Jing, Gillian, why did you go so late today, is something wrong? ”

Of course, Zhou Mujiao reported good news and not bad news, said that everything was going well, and also told Zhao Yunjing that he was about to go back to Lan Academy to study, the Zhao family was naturally happy, the Zhao family and his wife were about to cry, the child was here, and he could barely hold back.

"One more thing."

Zhao Yunjing said slowly: "Daddy, Auntie, Gillian and I plan to get engaged first." ”

As soon as these words came out, the smiles on the faces of the Zhao couple disappeared.

"Uncle and aunt don't want to?" Zhou Mujiao was puzzled.

Uncle Zhao shook his head: "You are willing to marry into our Zhao family, we can't be happy, how can we be unwilling, but this matter, I'm afraid it won't go well." ”
