The silly and sweet spring of crossing

Apart from making money by making lanterns, Qiu Baichen's life is just plain and plain.After a long time, the ostrich got used to burying its head in the sand, so it could ignore the covetous He Lanyuzhi.Four months have passed since the new year, and the April days in the world are already the time when all the fragrance and beauty are exhausted.

Xiao Chuliu is two and a half years old, and he speaks more clearly. When he is with He Lanyuzhi, Helan Yuzhi often reads to him.He also watched Qiu Baichen draw, and Qiu Baichen would also give him a charcoal pencil, or even a brush, and let him draw by himself with paper.

Perhaps because of inheriting Qiu Baichen's artistic talent, although Xiao Chuliu's casual paintings are abstract, they are still quite harmonious.Qiu Baichen saves all his paintings and shows them to him when he grows up and becomes sensible.

Qiu Baichen's family was considered well-off when he was a child, and his grandfather made a lot of money making lanterns at that time.There are many photos of him and his parents, from birth to teenage years, recording every bit of him.

Later, his parents died unexpectedly, and those photos were sealed away.Grandpa, the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, depressed, half of his hair became gray overnight, and he looked ten years older.

But at that time, the conditions of his family were still good. While going to school, he learned how to make lanterns with his grandfather, participated in many lantern shows, and learned from his old friends.

Life was good back then, Qiu Baichen was optimistic and cheerful, he looked fair and clean, and the elders liked it.However, later the lanterns became less and less popular, and grandpa's health became worse and worse. On the day he passed away, Qiu Baichen cried all night.

After coming to this world, he no longer thinks much about the past.However, he was very careful about the education of Xiao Chuliu, and he could not take pictures, so he used other methods to leave imprints, so that Xiao Chuliu grew up with good memories.He will also work hard to make money, live a long life, and spend a long time with his son.

Qiu Baichen tidied up the things of the sixth grader, put them in the big box, and locked it.He just received a large order yesterday, and the other party paid a lot of deposit, and the price of the lantern was also very high, but they needed someone to transport the lantern to the place, and then pay the full price.

Recently he has made a lot of money from foreign orders, and those merchants are willing to pay a higher price than the original price to buy his lanterns, because Qiu Baichen is too busy, and the number of lanterns he can make is limited, so only the one with the highest price will get it.

The money used to buy the new store has already been paid back, and now there is still a lot of money left over, which is placed with He Lanyuzhi.Qiu Baichen and He Lanyuzhi made a calculation. If this big business is done well, the money they make should be enough for them to buy a new house to live in.

Now there are too many people in the family and the living is too crowded.Xiao Chuliu grew up slowly, and needed more space for activities. Qiu Baichen began to put the matter of buying a new house on the agenda.

As soon as he made a plan, a business came to his door.

"Even if it's rush work, these lamps will have to be made for three months." Qiu Baichen settled the accounts there, and He Lanyuzhi sat beside him.

"We also need to take into account the loss of transportation, and the proportion of previous customers has feedback." He said, "It will take about three and a half months. My children and I should do it faster. There should be time. If we are fast, we may be able to do it earlier Finished in one go."

"But who do you want to deliver?" Qiu Baichen tilted his head.

"I'll go." He Lanyu said, "No one at home can live without me. I'll send it over and come back when it's done."

Qiu Baichen nodded, He Lanyu was indeed the most suitable.He has a lot of skill, and they will take the big road for this transportation, so they shouldn't encounter too many things in the middle.After he had made up his mind, he began to work overtime with his apprentices to make lanterns.

Now that the first batch of apprentices have the ability to make lanterns independently, Qiu Baichen can pick out less than [-]% of unqualified lanterns.The second batch of apprentices were still a bit short, so Wang Xian led them to do it. About [-]% of the mistakes were made, which is not very high.

Qiu Baichen himself was even faster. After finishing his own work, he still had to check the work of his apprentices.The apprentices were very motivated when they heard that the lanterns could be moved to the big house after finishing this time. With the longing for the big house, they finished the lanterns on time.

After it was done, He Lanyuzhi's transportation team was also ready to load all the lanterns and they were ready to leave at any time.Qiu Baichen looked at the carts of lanterns, as if he saw boxes of money waving to him.He cheerfully bid farewell to He Lan Yuzhi, ignoring He Lan Yuzhi's complicated expression and eyes, and when they were far away, he went back to rest with Xiao Chuliu in his arms.

The past three months were really exhausting, so Qiu Baichen simply gave the apprentices three days off, gave them bonuses, let them go out to play, and buy whatever they liked.

The apprentices all left, Qiu Baichen watched Xiao Chuliu in the room.Xiao Chuli hadn't played with Qiu Baichen for so long, so he was very excited and had a great time.

But as time went on, he started to feel uncomfortable.

"Where's Uncle He?" Xiao Chuliu asked, pouted.

"Your Uncle He has gone out and will be back in more than a month." Qiu Baichen said, he would not lie to Xiao Chuliu.

"Daddy." Xiao Chuliu put his arms around Qiu Baichen's neck, "I miss Uncle He, I want Uncle He to play with me."

Xiao Chuliu's eyes were full of tears. He was brought up by He Lanyuzhi since he was a child, and he was actually more dependent on him than Qiu Baichen.I didn't feel much at first, but after a little longer, I got used to it.

At this time, Qiu Baichen was still thinking that Xiao Chuliu was too sensitive. It seemed that he should buy him something delicious and something fun to divert his attention. He was very used to the matter of He Lanyuzhi's departure.

After dinner in the evening, everyone rested for a while, Qiu Baichen saw that all the apprentices had returned, and those who didn't stay outside took Xiao Chuliu to take a bath and sleep.

Children's bodies are hot, so the bath water for junior six is ​​cooler than that for adults.Xiao Chuliu was sitting in the tub with his bare buttocks, and Qiu Baichen bathed him. When his son moved, the water splashed on Qiu Baichen's body.Little Chu Liu giggled, took a shower and put on his clothes, hugged his father and gave him a big goodnight kiss.

Then he got into his own little bed and lay down, Qiu Baichen tucked the quilt up for him, and patted him lightly a few times.Xiao Chuli fell asleep very quickly, at first she pretended to be asleep, her eyes were closed tightly, but then she breathed evenly and fell asleep.

Seeing that he was fast asleep, Qiu Baichen also went to take a bath, and came out in obscene clothes after washing.

"He Nan, do you want to take a bath?" He asked, and it was only after he finished speaking that he remembered that He Lanyu was not there.Usually He Lanyu cleans up the bath water, but today Qiu Baichen can only clean it up by himself.

He poured out the bath water, then went to bed, and just laying down, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it, he remembered that the candle hadn't been blown out, and He Lanyuzhi usually did this.

Up to this time, Qiu Baichen was still doing well, these habits were formed when He Lanyu was there, otherwise he could take good care of himself.Qiu Baichen blew out the candles and fell asleep not long after. When he got up in the morning, he cleaned up by himself, dressed and washed Xiao Chuliu.

Because of He Lanyu's absence, Lu Ping still had to do embroidery work, so Qiu Baichen took Little Chuliu by himself, put out the building blocks for Little Chuliu to play with, and made lanterns by himself to watch the apprentices.Xiao Chuliu played with building blocks for a while, then suddenly stood up, ran into the house, and took out a book.

"Daddy, I want to listen to this." Xiao Chuliu said, He Lanyu usually reads to him.Although most of the stories and the like are half-knowledgeable, but he likes to listen to them very much. If he doesn't understand something, he will chase after He Lanyu and ask him. He Lanyuzhi will not be annoyed and will answer him.

Qiu Baichen took the book, and it was full of traditional Chinese characters, but he could read it well.Qiu Baichen put down the lantern in his hand, let Xiao Chuliu sit on his lap, and read to him.Primary six listened carefully and asked a lot of questions. Qiu Baichen, who often asked questions, was speechless, revealing his relatively low cultural level.

"Daddy doesn't understand, can I explain it to you when Uncle He comes back?" Qiu Baichen felt dizzy after reading it. As a modern person who is accustomed to vernacular and simplified characters, the vertical version of classical Chinese is really torture for him.Fortunately, the sixth grader did not force Qiu Baichen, nodded obediently, read the book himself, and asked Qiu Baichen what he read those words by the way.

When the reading time for the sixth grade of junior high school passed, Qiu Baichen thought that this could not always be the case. He Lanyuzhi had to go for such a long time, and as a father, he couldn't hold back so much, so after reconciling the accounts every day, he went to study again and studied The meaning in the book is best to explain to the sixth grader the next day.

Without the help of He Lanyu, the silly father is worried about his son's education every day, and has to support himself in everything he does.What was even more frightening was that Qiu Baichen found out that since he and Xiao Chuliu were the only ones in the room, he couldn't sleep as peacefully as before.He always subconsciously called He Lan Yuzhi, but there was nothing, no He Lan Yuzhi would look at him with a smile.

He Lan Yuzhi left for seven days, Qiu Baichen felt that his life seemed to be disrupted, full of confusion.There are traces of He Lanyuzhi in every aspect of his life, and he may think of him at any time. When I think of it, I feel sore. I want to write a letter to talk to him, but when the letter arrives, he will come back. , did not write.

At this moment, Qiu Baichen was suffering here, and He Lanyuzhi, who had already walked halfway, also encountered trouble.
