In the next few days, Han Jianing forced himself to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning every day, first to make breakfast, and then to study with his grandfather.

Every day is full and hard, honing her loose will, although it is very bitter, but she is willing to eat.

On this day, she was shaken by the alarm clock, got up and sat on the bed, rubbed her eyebrows, got out of bed and opened the window of the room, her room just happened to see the large vats placed in the yard, and a yard of dyed cloth dancing in the wind.

Some of those tanks were filled with pigments, and some were spare tanks.

At 4 o'clock in the morning, the sun had just emerged from the clouds, and the sunlight shining on the water was a little gentle.

Han Jianing stretched in front of the window, breathed in the fresh air, closed the screen, washed up and went downstairs.

"Ning Ning is up."

Shen Yueying took the freshly ground soy milk and greeted Han Jianing, who was slowly descending from the stairs.

"Grandma, why are you so early today?" Han Jianing deliberately looked at his watch to confirm that he didn't get up late.

"Your grandfather has already said that we have made breakfast for a few days, but I can't make you tired." Shen Yueying's face was loving and proud.

"That's what I'm supposed to do." Han Jianing took the soy milk and brought it to the table.

found that there was only a pair of chopsticks, and said suspiciously: "Grandma, you and grandpa have already eaten?" ”

"After eating, your grandfather changed his clothes, saying that he would take you out later."

Han Jianing was a little stunned, "Take me out?" Where to go? ”

Shen Yueying smiled mysteriously, "You'll know in a while." ”

After Han Jianing finished breakfast, she didn't see her grandfather come down, she was curious and apprehensive, and asked her grandmother, grandma was always a mysterious smile, and she was even more interested.

Finally, when Han Jianing walked to the staircase for the third time, her grandfather Han Baochang finally came out after a long time and went downstairs with his hands behind his back.

"Grandpa, grandma said you were going to take me out?" Han Jianing immediately rushed over.

Han Baochang handed the cloth wrapped in rice paper between his arms and handed it to Han Jianing, "Take it and go out with grandpa." ”

Han Jianing carefully held the cloth, so that her grandfather could wrap the cloth in rice paper, it must be a rare boutique, she couldn't help but want to open her heart to take a peek at the truth, and stood behind her obediently.

"It looks like it's going to rain this day, bring an umbrella."

Grandma handed Han Jianing an oil-paper umbrella and held it in her hand, only to find out that this umbrella was made by her when she and her sister Han Jiawen were playing together a few years ago.

Even the umbrella bones of this oil-paper umbrella were ground out little by little by their own hands, so they were a little crooked.

The pattern on this paper was her whim, and she made a piece of dyed paper with this oilcloth, and in the end, she didn't lose it, so she made this fan, but she didn't expect it to have a different flavor.

Now it seems that Han Jianing will still be shocked by his original talent.

She looked at her grandfather's slightly rickety back in front of her, and suddenly understood her grandfather's grief and helplessness when she said she didn't want to do tie-dye anymore.

But in the end, they still indulged her, Han Jianing suddenly had a trace of sourness on the tip of her nose, she sniffed and followed quickly, "Grandpa, you wait for me, you haven't told me where to go yet." ”

No matter how Han Jianing asked, Han Baochang just refused to say, he pressed the corners of his mouth and chuckled, and took Han Jianing from the door of his house, all the way to the not far from Xizha Road, got on the boat, and went all the way down the Xishi River.

When crossing Shaoming Road, Han Jianing was holding an oil-paper umbrella, half-leaning on the side of the boat boredly, and suddenly saw a boat on the opposite side full of lotus canopy, which was full of greenery, which caught her eye.

She couldn't help licking the corners of her mouth, and shouted sweetly to the boat lady: "Little sister, how much is a lotus pod?" ”

When the boat lady handed over the boat, she handed over a plump lotus canopy, "Ah Mei take it and eat it." ”

"Thank you, little sister, little sister has a prosperous business." Han Jianing held the lotus canopy and looked up with a bright smile.

"Your family Ning Ning is even more lively than before."

"The child is older."

"In a few years, you'll be able to worry a lot."

"Haha, I'm looking forward to that day."

Han Baochang sat at the stern of the boat and chatted with the boatman.

Han Jianing smiled and pretended not to hear.

When she was a teenager, she didn't have a sweet mouth now, peeling the lotus pod in her hand, and the white lotus seeds were about to come out, she twisted one and put it in her mouth, with a hint of tired sweetness in the greenness, which made Han Jianing squint her eyes comfortably.

It's this familiar taste!

Waiting for the boat to row out of Longyuan Road, Han Jianing sat up straight, this is about to go to Dongshi, grandpa is going to find the old man?

"Grandpa......"

"Guessed?"

Han Baochang looked at Han Jianing lovingly, "Don't blame grandpa for not telling you, I was afraid that you wouldn't come before." ”

"How could I not come."

Han Jianing recalled that there seemed to be a time when she didn't like to come to Dongshi, but she had forgotten what it was for, and she had something to do with Gu Xiayang.

The boat stopped near the Wuzhen Bridge.

Han Jianing helped her grandfather get off the boat and stepped on the midnight road, looking at the familiar buildings around her, Han Jianing only felt like a world away.

Han Baochang patted Han Jianing's shoulder, "Look at your feet, don't drop my cloth." ”

"Got it, grandpa."

She clipped the oil-paper umbrella to her wrist, carefully held the rice paper bag in her hand, followed behind Han Baochang, and when she was about to walk near Zhicai Road, she turned into a small alley on the side, where was the Gu family's mansion.

Han Jianing stepped into the threshold full of fighting spirit, Gu Xiayang! I'm coming!

"Old Han, you came early today."

Gu Jincheng sat on the Huanghuali Taishi chair whose armrests had been pulped.

Seeing the two of them, he put down the teapot wrapped in cloth in his hand, uncovered the cloth, revealing the purple clay pot made of authentic Huanglong mountain mud with a bright luster, and greeted him with a big smile.

"Hurry up and take a look at your cloth, I'll go back to teach Ning Ning the craft later." Han Baochang raised his eyebrows with some pride.

"Ning Ning hasn't been here for a long time, Xia Yang is still doing morning class, why don't I have someone call him to play with you?"

"No need for Grandpa Gu, I won't bother him, and I'll go back to study later, grandpa has taught me a new way of toning in the past few days, and I haven't figured it out yet."

Han Jianing obediently refused, and after putting the cloth on the carved Huanghuali coffee table on the side, she took two steps back and stood behind Han Baochang, her well-behaved and sensible made Gu Jincheng even more satisfied.

He glanced at Han Jianing and said, "Go ahead, I still have something to talk about with your grandfather." ”

Seeing that her grandfather nodded, Han Jianing retreated, although she hadn't been to the Gu family's mansion for ten years, she still knew the place where Gu Xiayang did morning classes, so she didn't need anyone to lead the way, so she walked over directly.

Looking at the back of Han Jianing leaving, Gu Jincheng nodded with satisfaction, in this young generation of children, he has always liked Han Jianing, well-behaved, pure and extremely talented, he smiled at Han Baochang and said: "Ning Ning is really getting better and better, much more worry-free than my family." ”

Han Baochang's eyes were full of pride, he touched the beard on his lips and said: "It's not as good as your Xia Yang, she still has a long way to go, and now she is willing to settle down and learn things, which is commendable, as long as she is willing to maintain this state, she can become a teacher in less than five years." ”

Han Jianing stood outside the wooden door of the house, and through the half-open window, he saw Gu Xiayang carefully cutting the cloth at the desk.

That face was young and immature, with an elegant and noble temperament, and couldn't help but make people hold their breath, Han Jianing looked at him with his hands on the windowsill.

"Click, click."

The only sound in my ears was the cutting of scissors.

"Han Jianing, why did you come here today, didn't you say never to see me again?"

Gu Xiayang had already noticed Han Jianing, he had been pretending not to see it, he had thought of waiting for Han Jianing to speak first, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see her move.

Han Jianing crashed into Gu Xiayang's deep eyes in vain, and was stunned for a moment, why did she feel that Gu Xiayang seemed to be a little aggrieved?

It's an illusion.

"Han Jianing, did you hear me?"

Gu Xiayang walked to the window, and he looked condescendingly at Han Jianing, who didn't know what he was thinking.

He lowered his head and leaned into Han Jianing's ear and said softly, "Are you still angry because I said that you don't study well?" ”

Han Jianing only felt an itch in her ears, she covered her ears, took a defensive step back, and looked at the young man in front of her, "Who can't study well!" I'm studying well! ”

Like a fried little milk cat, Gu Xiayang grinned, "Then come on for the opening exam, don't cry there when Sun Shan is named, don't be like a mock exam." ”

A mock exam?

Entrance exams?

What is this!

Han Jianing brainstormed instantly, and in an instant, she finally understood why she didn't want to come to Dongshi during this period, because she didn't want to see Gu Xiayang.

The most fundamental reason is that her results have never won against Gu Xiayang!

Damn!

I still have to learn!
