Chapter 29 The Painter

Since the inflatable sofa came into existence, the small attic finally has more breath of life, and the two of them don't have to just sit on the ground. Sometimes when Shen Letong sits on the sofa and reads documents, Zhou Ruiyang will quietly let the air out of the sofa After Shen Letong found out, he would usually ask Zhou Ruiyang to play again, of course, with his mouth.

After that, Zhou Ruiyang would occasionally add something to the attic. Once he even got a rattan rocking chair and placed it under the small square window. On weekends when the weather was fine, he would lean back on the rattan chair On it, while basking in the sun, flipping through the theoretical knowledge of baking in his hands, until he was too sleepy to open his eyes, and fell asleep with the book on his face.

Shen Letong sometimes works overtime on weekends, and when he comes back in the evening, he will see Zhou Ruiyang sleeping dead on the rattan chair with his book closed.On a whim, Shen Letong would sometimes viciously press the book on Zhou Ruiyang's face, which made Zhou Ruiyang almost fall off the wicker chair in a jerk.Facing the staring Zhou Ruiyang, Shen Letong whistled as if nothing had happened and went to hang up his clothes.

One day later, Shen Letong dragged Zhou Ruiyang to open a bank card, and deposited all the savings that Zhou Ruiyang and himself had temporarily.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Ruiyang stared blankly at Shen Letong depositing his own money, and a small stack of hundred-yuan bills disappeared before Zhou Ruiyang's eyes.

"Invest in shares." Shen Letong said flatly, "Boss Zhou, if you make a profit in the future, you have to pay me dividends."

Zhou Ruiyang looked at the short string of numbers displayed on the ATM, bit his lower lip hard, then smiled and put his hand on Shen Letong's neck, "Don't worry, if I eat in the future, you will have a bite." .”

"Why does this sound so awkward." Shen Letong said with his head tilted.

"It's not awkward at all." Zhou Ruiyang touched the numbers on the display screen with his hands. The display screen was slightly warm, full of static electricity and a little numb. Grab the string of numbers in your hand, fold them into a ball, and take them home.

"You will be swallowed by the machine if you don't take out the card." Shen Letong reminded Zhou Ruiyang, who had bright eyes, "The card that was just issued is still hot."

"Oh, I forgot." Zhou Ruiyang withdrew his hand from the display screen, returned the card, and held the thin but hopeful card tightly in his hand.

Since that day, the life of Zhou Ruiyang and Shen Letong has become much simpler. Zhou Ruiyang put the bank card under the pillow, and the money they saved was deposited into the bank card one by one.

Later, when Zhou Ruiyang looked back, he felt that these days were really difficult.At that time, Shen Letong, who had never been weaned from milk since he was a child, avoided milk during this period, and took the milk he bought back without telling Zhou Ruiyang to find a reason to return it.Zhou Ruiyang didn't want to throw away Zhou Ruiyang's whitish windbreaker. When he got off work from the convenience store at dawn in late autumn, he wrapped it tightly around his body and went home. When he returned to the small attic, his hands were almost numb from the cold. .

In summer, the small attic would leak a little rain, and in winter the house was not warm, but at that time, neither of them complained about anything, and they didn't even feel how difficult the life was at that time. It was only when I saw the numbers on the bank card that I suddenly felt exhausted and crumbling.

Compared with the initial period, the number on the bank card has become longer, which is long enough for Zhou Ruiyang to set up a small store to open.Zhou Ruiyang stood in front of the ATM and counted the string of numbers on it over and over again. He returned the card and inserted it again, just to confirm the string of numbers, until his eyes were soaked in tears and blurred.

Zhou Ruiyang touched his face, sighed secretly that he was worthless, took out his bank card, wrapped it in his arms, and walked out with red eyes, just in time for a group of armed escorts to stop at the door of the bank with guns.

Zhou Ruiyang tightened his windbreaker, and raised his eyes to wink at the armed policemen with guns in front of him. Probably because he was too excited, Zhou Ruiyang bowed ninety degrees to the armed policemen before leaving.

"You scared him to tears?" After Zhou Ruiyang left, the teammate next to the armed police whispered to him.

"Hmm...maybe." The armed policeman replied vaguely, a little confused.

When I went home that day, Zhou Ruiyang jumped in. The whole rabbit was stimulant, which shocked Shen Letong who was flipping through the magazine.

"Xiao Lele, I can go to open the shop." Zhou Ruiyang jumped in front of Shen Letong and hugged him tightly, his voice trembling.

Shen Letong rested his chin on Zhou Ruiyang's shoulder for a moment, then smiled, let out a long sigh of relief, reached out to wrap his arms around Zhou Ruiyang's back, patted it hard twice, and imitated Zhou Ruiyang's strength to hug him hard, Asked: "So, have you saved enough money?"

Zhou Ruiyang nodded vigorously, and bumped into Shen Letong's shoulder, causing Shen Letong a little pain.

"That's great." Shen Letong sighed softly, no longer exerting force on his arms, but hanging them easily around Zhou Ruiyang's neck, allowing him to hug him tightly, feeling the excitement and joy emanating from him.

Zhou Ruiyang closed his eyes tightly, holding Shen Letong in his arms without moving, the setting sun quietly sprinkled the room.

Later, Zhou Ruiyang quit his job in a convenience store and rented a small store near a high school. The store was small, only [-] square meters.

"How about this place?" Zhou Ruiyang stood in the middle of the small shop, waving his arms and asked Shen Letong at the door.

Shen Letong glanced around, the cabinets, doors and windows in the store were covered with dust, dilapidated wooden strips and bricks were piled all over the floor, and Zhou Ruiyang, who was full of excitement and shimmering dust all over his body, was a world apart. landscape.

Shen Letong stepped carefully through the horizontal wood at the door and stepped into the store. Standing where Zhou Ruiyang was standing, he looked around. The storefront is small, but the lighting is excellent. There is a large glass wall next to the sidewalk, which is very transparent.Shen Letong suddenly imagined Zhou Ruiyang's busy appearance here, imagined the baked pastries seen through the glass wall, and even smelled a faint smell of butter.So Shen Letong looked at the hurried pedestrians outside the door, nodded and said with a smile: "It couldn't be better."

"True stuff." Zhou Ruiyang patted Shen Letong on the shoulder, with a lot of strength, causing Shen Letong to tilt.

"But what are you going to do with these things?" Shen Letong asked as he kicked a small broken brick on the ground.

"Clean up slowly." Zhou Ruiyang stretched his shoulders and stretched out his fingers to count: "The walls need to be painted, the glass needs to be wiped, the counter needs to be erected, and there is still a lot of work to be done. I haven't even decided on the name of the store yet. So the procedures haven't been completed yet." Zhou Ruiyang stretched his waist and continued: "Xiao Lele, what do you think I should name the store?"

Shen Letong thought for a while, squatted on the ground with a piece of broken red brick, imitated Zhou Ruiyang's style and drew a little stick figure on the ground, looked up at Zhou Ruiyang.

Zhou Ruiyang smiled, squatted beside Shen Letong, took the red brick in his hand, drew another one next to the stickman he just drew, and giggled while looking at the two little figures on the ground.Shen Letong looked at the little man on the ground, but suddenly he felt out of breath, just like Zhou Ruiyang was holding him that day, strangling him with both hands, as if he was afraid that he would run away.But Zhou Ruiyang's villains are still so ugly.

Zhou Ruiyang decided that this shop would be called "Matchman Bakery" from now on, and made the shop brand and pastry packaging bags with this name. There was also a small brown stick figure printed on the packaging bag. This villain was drawn by Zhou Ruiyang. He drew more than 100 small figures in a row before Shen Letong was satisfied, and finally took the small figure on the paper to a printing shop to print.

The decoration of the store was basically done by Zhou Ruiyang alone. Although Shen Letong would come to help after get off work, Zhou Ruiyang felt that he might as well not come, because this guy paints the walls like painting abstract paintings.

"Can't you paint one by one?" Zhou Ruiyang sat on the ground with newspapers on his body, watching Shen Letong waving the brush chaotically as if watching a performance.

Shen Letong took two steps back with the paint bucket, looked at the wall he had just painted, and muttered, "I painted it piece by piece."

"Paint it in a square shape, not a dot shape." Zhou Ruiyang explained helplessly.

"You can't blame me, your brush will crooked as you walk." Shen Letong put down the paint bucket and said, turning the brush in his hand.

"Yes, I can't rely on you. Every mistake is the brush's fault." Zhou Ruiyang rubbed his hands and said.

"That's it." Shen Letong said with curled lips, threw the brush in his hand back into the paint bucket, and sat beside Zhou Ruiyang watching his "masterpiece".

"I'll keep this wall for you." Zhou Ruiyang took off the newspaper cap that Shen Letong was wearing, "This is the first time our classmate Shen Letong has painted the wall, and it looks so beautiful. Congratulations, it should be preserved forever for future generations The little people pay their respects."

Shen Letong gave Zhou Ruiyang a blank look, "You are not allowed to run on me."

"This is called a run, this is called a compliment, a heartfelt compliment." Zhou Ruiyang said with a playful smile.

"Zhou Ruiyang..." Shen Letong squinted his eyes and looked at Zhou Ruiyang like a cat, seeing a chill rising from Zhou Ruiyang's back, and immediately withdrew his smile.

"Okay, you pretend I didn't say anything, wait until I get you water." Zhou Ruiyang waved his hands and got up and said.

Shen Letong turned to look at Zhou Ruiyang dragging his numb legs to fetch water, then turned to look at the wall, "It's pretty ugly." Shen Letong muttered.

"Hey, this is the most reliable sentence you said today." Zhou Ruiyang said as he handed the mineral water to Shen Letong.

"So I allow you to paint it again." Shen Letong said after taking a big sip of water.

Zhou Ruiyang raised his forehead, "Why are you doing this?"

Shen Letong hugged the water bottle and smiled, he felt that he had passed the addiction of a great painter.

Fortunately, Shen Letong did not participate in the decoration after that, because at the request of the company, Shen Letong was on a business trip, and the time was not short, a full 20 days.
