"Senior Brother Yuhai, is that you?" Chu Zhiwei had approached and confirmed his judgment to the man.

"Yes...... I, Zhiwei! Pan Yuhai choked, he hadn't heard Chu Zhiwei call him like this for a long time.

Pan Yuhai's words fell, and Song Fanzhe and several people also surrounded him.

When Pan Yuhai eloped with his little junior sister, everyone still remembers. But it's been so long that people have almost forgotten the anger at that time. A familiar melody evokes a common and beautiful memory. It was their eighteenth year, a youth they could never go back to.

Chu Liuli and Pan Rongxuan didn't step forward again, although they hadn't experienced that kind of day, they empathized with the feelings between their brothers and sisters.

Chu Liuli walked to Liu Yunshan's side and said sincerely: "Senior brother, do you know, you have made a great contribution, and this gathering you proposed to organize has untied the knot in my father's heart for many years. ”

Liu Yunshan was puzzled: "What knot does Master have?" How I didn't know! ”

Chu Liuli pulled him aside and told him about the grievances between his father and Pan Yuhai. Liu Yunshan suddenly realized, he remembered that once, he asked Chu Zhiwei how many brothers he had, but Chu Zhiwei didn't answer him, and there was still an unhappy look on his face. Now it seems that it is related to Pan Yuhai.

Chu Zhiwei and his brothers have not seen each other for many years, and there are endless topics. He introduced several of his apprentices to his senior brothers and junior disciples. Looking at the younger generation, they are very pleased to think that there are successors to the skills passed down from the older generation.

After three rounds of drinking, Liu Yunshan proposed to let the younger generations present talk about their experiences and feelings about the repair of ancient buildings over the years. Song Fanzhe and Chu Zhiwei all thought this idea was good.

Chu Zhiwei, Wu Yongzhao, Chu Liuli, and several of Chu Zhiwei's apprentices are all participating in the renovation project of the Forbidden City, and only Chu Jingkai followed the teacher to participate in the renovation of Prince Gong's Mansion. Therefore, everyone's eyes are focused on him and want to hear about his harvest in the past two years.

Chu Jingkai was a little embarrassed at first, and opened the conversation with the encouragement of his sister.

Chu Jingkai looked around and said humbly: "The teachers all know that my sister Chu Liuli is now following Teacher Wu to repair the color paintings of the Taihe Palace, so I will talk about the color paintings." Before the start of this renovation project, several experts took us to the site of Prince Gong's Mansion to carry out the actual measurement and research of the old paintings of the inner eaves, and I was surprised to find that our Chinese color painting is such a broad and profound field, but it is a pity that the art of color painting has not received due attention and is declining. We can see that many of the existing old paintings on the mansion still have obvious traces of layering, and different owners have more or less left their own historical imprints on the architectural decoration and paintings. It can also be seen in the color paintings that Prince Gong's Mansion has a richer historical and cultural connotation than the general palace. In the past, my understanding of color painting was too macro and conceptual. ”

Chu Jingkai turned his gaze to Chu Liuli: "Liuli, you wrote a paper on the color painting of Prince Gong's Mansion, you can continue to talk about it." ”

Chu Liuli smiled, took his brother's words and said: "More than two years ago, I specialized in studying the color paintings of the palace, just like my brother said, the color paintings of Prince Gong's Mansion have richer historical and cultural connotations, for example, the same is the color painting of the rotor, there are more than 20 kinds of Gong Wangfu, and there are differences between the middle Qing Dynasty, the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the late Qing Dynasty, and the Republic of China period, all of which have distinct personalities. Among them, the Soviet-style color paintings in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, which can be called a unique example, are very different from the burden-style Soviet-style paintings that fill the streets today. ”

While Chu Jingkai and Chu Liuli's brother and sister were talking, Song Fanzhe nodded frequently, leaned into Chu Zhiwei's ear and said, "Senior brother, you two children are really good. I really got your true biography! ”

Listening to the most respected senior brother praising his two children, Chu Zhiwei said with rare immodesty: "Their two brothers and sisters have been interested in this since they were children. Luckily, it didn't disappoint me. ”

At the small table at the door, two waiters were cutting cakes and distributing them to the people seated one by one.

Guo Yajuan inserted a small piece of cake and put it in her mouth, and the feeling of entering the mouth surprised her. Soft, fragrant, sweet but not greasy, completely in line with her taste.

Liu Yunshan looked at her and asked with a smile, "How is it, senior mother?" Isn't it delicious to make a cake made of glass? ”

"This cake is made of glass?" Guo Yajuan couldn't believe it. My daughter, who can only cook noodles and porridge, can make cakes!

"That's right, it's made by Liuli, she said that it only makes sense to make a cake for the master herself!" Liu Yunshan is very sure.

In an instant, Guo Yajuan was so moved that she almost cried, her daughter had grown up and gave them too many surprises.

The time to get together always passes quickly, and the party lasts until after 9 o'clock in the evening. Just when everyone was about to leave, Liu Yunshan asked everyone to stay and give his master Chu Zhiwei a big gift in front of everyone. His ancient architectural engineering company set up a branch in the capital, and he specially set up the "Chu Zhiwei Official-style Ancient Building Construction Skills Study Studio" to meet the teacher's idea of accepting apprentices and inheriting skills.

"Senior brother, your gift is too big!" Chu Jingkai didn't know how to praise Liu Yunshan for a while.

"Yes, senior brother, you see that my father is so happy that he can't speak." Chu Liuli looked at his father with a smile.

For Chu Zhiwei, there were too many happiness and surprises on this day. After more than 20 years, reuniting with his brothers and apprentices, and listening to Wu Yongzhao's "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", made his mind unable to calm down.

He thought that the day had come to a perfect end, but he didn't want his lover to tell him another big news that a studio named after him had been established!

Under the attention of everyone, Chu Zhiwei, who gradually came to his senses, walked towards his eldest apprentice Liu Yunshan, patted him heavily on the shoulder, and said in a voice so low that only the two of them could hear it, "Thank you!" ”

He didn't dare to look up, for fear that his brothers and apprentices would see his tearful eyes.

This day will be unforgettable for all of them.

The next day, Zhang Yifeng was going back to Shanghai, and Chu Liuli went to the airport to see him off. Since being promoted to project manager, Zhang Yifeng has rarely been in the capital. They have been living a life of gathering less and leaving more.

Although Chu Liuli supported him, she was still a little aggrieved in her heart. Zhang Yifeng seemed to be able to read minds, and gently hugged her shoulders and comforted: "Liuli, I promise, this project is over, I will definitely accompany you well." No matter how big the project is, I don't care, unless it's local to the capital! ”

Hearing him say this, Chu Liuli was embarrassed, and said softly: "You work hard outside, don't worry about me, I won't hold you back." Besides, the nature of your job is like this, you need to travel a lot. You're going to work, not going out! Don't worry, I won't care! ”

When Chu Liuli said "go out to play", Zhang Yifeng's expression was slightly unnatural, but it quickly returned to normal.

The plane was about to take off, he said goodbye to Chu Liuli, turned around and walked towards the security checkpoint.

Chu Liuli's gaze followed him until he disappeared from her field of vision.
