Eros kisses Psyche

When he was in the hospital at night, Xu Budie received a red envelope from Cheng Zhu.

/I am very happy today, thank you/

The red envelope is also auspicious, with a feeling that the life of a middle-aged man is so simple and boring, so I gave him an 888.

This is much more than the takeaway money he earns in a day, not to mention just having a meal with them, Xu Budie is a bit ashamed of it.Although it was true that the three of them were not full after eating for two, he was now holding a bowl of instant noodles to satisfy his hunger, but looking at the 888 big red envelope, he still added a piece of ham sausage to himself.

After struggling for a while, I replied to Cheng Zhu:

/ This is too much, don't give so much. /

/ It doesn't matter, won't this trouble you often in the future.Just take care of me and Lele. /

Xu Budie's fingers slid back and forth on the screen, struggling for a while. He originally wanted to return a few hundred. After entering the amount, he hung his thumb on the button for a long time, but finally lost to the temptation of money.He needs money so badly.

So he turned around and typed:

/Professor Cheng then don't be polite to me, you can ask me for anything, and I will definitely serve you to your satisfaction. /

Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing:

/...For example, your room...I think it can also be cleaned. /

But the job that came first was not cleaning, but helping with the handling.Cheng Zhu asked him if he knew a reliable moving company or moving team?He said in the voice: "It must be reliable. The few companies I found before were either messed up or bumped."

"Don't worry, I'm very reliable, I'll keep an eye on you all the time." Xu Budie promised that he really has connections, and their almighty business is like an ancient "inquiry", each of them has a network of communication channels, The way people at the bottom live is unimaginable for "people above" like Cheng Zhu.Of course, he, Xu Budie, was originally an "upper person". One day, a hole suddenly appeared in the floor, and he fell, and fell through the eighteenth floor.

He confidently recommended this to Cheng Zhu because he had used it himself.The cost of treatment for the mother is astonishing just for one operation, which is enough to make a well-off family directly impoverished, not to mention the bottomless pit of follow-up.He could only sell the family house, and rented the cheapest rough in the outskirts of the city for the rest of his father's things and collections, thinking about selling them off slowly.At that time, the goods that were entrusted to these people were cheap and good, and they could be discounted without invoicing.Of course, Professor Cheng is not short of an invoice, but the key is honesty and honesty, value for money, preferably super value, people are always at ease when dealing with such things, whether it is appearance or internality-this is also the job of being a universal person The trick, so Xiao Xu insisted on tidying himself up like this, you see, didn't he succeed in winning Cheng Jinzhu's favor?

He took out a pen and paper to record a memo: "What are you going to transport? Where is the approximate location?"

The next day, a small truck drove to Tiancheng Yufu first, and took the freight passage to the outside of Cheng Zhu's garden.Xu Budie was lucky enough to enter Professor Cheng's house through the main entrance this time, and was once again shocked to feel the disaster-like scene of a nuclear explosion.Cheng Zhu asked him to help move the skeleton he had built in the house, but within a day, the thing had grown from a few vertical poles interfering with the chandelier to some kind of post-modern cyber vine, spreading and occupying the entire living room. In fact, Cheng Zhu didn't learn the lesson at all.

Xu Budie bent over and slipped under the wire shelf. "Just move this?... What is this?"

"This is the skeleton for making a large-scale reference, just like the draft of a painting," Cheng Zhu said, "Hey, over there, lift over there."

It's not heavy, but the shape is weird, and it took a lot of work to move it out. The two people are not familiar with moving things. First, they bumped into the chandelier and shook it, and then got stuck on the door frame for a long time before getting it out. Sweating profusely, Xu Bu laughed at him: "I'll just move this one. If I knew I'd let the old man in the car get down, I'd have helped. You even asked me to come by name."

Since the two had dinner together, they felt familiar, and they were not too surprised.Cheng Zhu took water from the refrigerator and gave him: "Oh, you have worked so hard, Master Ren will go to my studio to carry big things; besides, isn't this in my house... like this, let others see , what to do if I scare another one."

"Yes, you also know that it will scare others, and you still laughed at me like that that day." Xiao Xu raised his head and took a big mouthful of ice water.

"I don't dare to let ordinary people in. I know that my hobby is not tolerated by the world's prejudice..." Cheng Zhu spoke sadly, wishing he could wipe away his tears, Xiao Xu almost choked: "Cough cough cough—what's the habit? The habit of not washing clothes?"

The two carried the racks to the car and tied them up, and then went to the studio together.Cheng Zhu's studio is located in a factory area outside the third ring road, and there is no subway access. The government approved them to be an art innovation base. The cost is low, but it is quite time-consuming to go back and forth.Cheng Zhu himself didn't have a car, and there was a lot of traffic along the way even if it wasn't peak hours. Xu Budie understood why he didn't go to the studio to make this "big piece": he rushed to pick up Lele from kindergarten, if he went back and forth between the studio and home , It's a waste of time and energy.

He chatted casually: "Professor Cheng can't drive?"

"Driving is a life skill of a normal adult. You young people don't understand it."

"Then why didn't I see you driving? It was the same when I went to pick up Lele from the kindergarten last time. If you drove here directly, nothing would happen."

"Sometimes it is said that fortune and misfortune depend on each other. If I drove past that day, wouldn't I miss you? Then what should I do?"

Xu Budie listened and benefited.Cheng Zhu is indeed not particular, he is neither big nor small, sometimes he seems to be a bit of an elite, but he reveals his true colors in minutes.Xu Budie felt that getting along with him was very comfortable, allowing him to have the confidence of "I am also an adult" and the sense of superiority of "Adults are nothing more than that", and temporarily forget their real status quo, thinking that they are equals.

"I'm just curious. There are very few people who live in your neighborhood who don't buy a car."

"There used to be a car at home." Cheng Zhu said, he suddenly paused, his tone dropped somehow, "Later,... divorced, my wife packed up her things, and drove the car away " He thought, no matter what I say, can I still let her take her things and take a taxi and go away by herself?But she drove away and wouldn't return it to me, and I didn't have the cheek to ask for it.

Xu Budie was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the topic to develop in this direction, and he was shocked, "Ah, I'm sorry..."

"Hey, what are you sorry for? It's not that you are divorcing me." Cheng Zhu was a little sad, but now he couldn't help laughing, thinking that this kid is so funny, "Besides, I don't feel sorry for her, after all, I am like this, You’ve seen it too, you can’t do anything, it’s normal for people to have opinions on me. Who can live with me? I can’t live with myself. Back then, I thought I would never marry a wife in my life What?" He glanced at Xiao Xu to see that he was listening carefully, the wind outside the car window was blowing his soft black hair, and he felt an urge to rub it. ——Well, why scare the child, "But you don't have to worry, you must be the popular type, girls line up to marry."

Xu Budie was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect the topic to surround him, so he hastily denied it: "No, how could there be?"

"Oh, I'm in a hurry, what's the point of being modest, you haven't talked about friends yet?"

"I'm as busy as a dog every day, so there's nothing to talk about..." It's hard for him to say, who would want to line up to marry me?It is right to avoid it only if it is too late.

"That can't be done, the emotional life of young people is also very important..."

Xu Budie smiled noncommittally. Feelings, life, these two words are absurd to him separately, and together they are the square of absurdity.It's too extravagant, it's not the luxury of the relationship itself, but the time and energy needed to manage the relationship.

Cheng Zhu was still chatting eloquently. Men can't stop talking about these aspects, whether it's the sense of superiority of the elders or the unique topicality of being a man, "Oh, you are so good-looking, and you are so beautiful." Yes, it must be too picky. I will meet you in my class in a while, and they are all about your age. Let me tell you that they are all of high quality. Maybe they look right?"

Xu Budie had no choice but to follow his words, laughing and laughing: "Come on, your training class is full of young ladies, right? How can I be so high?"

"Then you read it wrong. As my student, no one can be a young master or a young lady. You have to roll over in the mud, climb over the rocky mountain, you can't bear the hardships, you can't stand the dirty, you can't do this job, You can't be my student."

The car turned into the factory area during the gossip, and saw the words "Cultural Art and Creative Park", and there were many nameplates of artist studios underneath.Although it can be guessed from the information Cheng Zhu gave him and all the previous ones that Cheng Zhu is a sculptor, but here, surrounded by abstract and representationalists, he has a personal experience that this person is really an "artist".

What a sculptor...

It can't be such a coincidence...

When I saw the sign of "Yu Zhe Studio", my heart still skipped a beat.He walked in behind Cheng Zhu with his head down. Two apprentices were leading the students to make replicas.Said it was a small class, there were only a dozen people in total, at this time they all looked up at them together, and sure enough, many of them were girls. At this time, Quan crisply greeted Teacher Cheng enthusiastically one after another, and Cheng Zhu still held his back with one hand. He pushed forward, startled Xu Budie, and hurriedly rolled and scrambled back, drawing a clear line with practical actions.Cheng Zhu thought it was funny, and felt that the young man's thin skin was fun, so he didn't force it, and walked over to give instructions on homework.Xu Budie leaned against the cultural wall on one side of the office, and when he turned his head, he saw a few group photos of celebrities hanging there.

Just a glance, the line of sight suddenly seemed to be glued, and was suddenly glued to it.

-

'Xiao Die, this is a gift from Dad on this business trip, do you like it? '

'Wow!This looks so good! ...here...there are words under this!what is this? '

'This is Yuzhe, the name of the studio and the name of the author who made this handicraft. '

'His name is so strange! '

'Hahaha, right?People are also weird. '

'But he did a good job!Beautifully done!Like alive! '

'Yeah, this man is an artist.Does Xiaodie want to be an artist when he grows up? '

'think! '

'Hahaha, then you have to study hard and not be lazy.When you grow up, Dad will take you to meet him. If you want to learn sculpture, I can just say hello to him. We are very close...'

"Xiao Xu? Why are you so engrossed?"

Xu Budie was stunned, turned to look at Cheng Zhu, and then at the photo, feeling a little dazed and not recovering.

"What's the matter, is it because I'm too young to be handsome?" Cheng Zhu didn't notice it at all, and looked at the photos with his head, quite complacently, "I was young at that time, maybe not a few years older than you are now, right? Playing the vanguard, oops, I don’t see it, I don’t see it.”

Only then did Xu Budie carefully examine Cheng Zhu who was next to his father in the photo.He looks fat and thin, but there is no change in his appearance, but there is a look of childishness and fearlessness on his face. It seems that his upper body is wearing an ill-fitting suit to cope with it, but his lower body is wearing swing-up jeans, which are stained with paint mud Also had a hole.Who knew that the photographer actually took a full body photo.

Xu Budie was shocked: "Did you open a studio then?"

"Ah, I just won an award at the time, and I was young and energetic. Taking advantage of the sponsorship, I thought about doing everything." He pointed to the other government officials in the photo who looked like visitors from outside the sky, " At that time, several leaders in the district were very optimistic. They just planned to build this industrial park, so they used me as a facade. The first batch settled in, a win-win situation. Wave."

Xu Budie felt his lips tremble a little. He suppressed the lump in his throat, swallowed, and pretended not to ask, "Then... who are the other people in this photo?"

"It's been a long time. It's been ten years. I don't remember it? In short, it's some governments, districts in charge of culture, and street offices. They treat me like a giant panda and show people around every day. I just Hang their photos here and give them to my town house." Cheng Zhu said casually, "I don't understand anything and I like to be sycophant. Where did I come to inspect, and I asked for cards. I walked away from me a lot at that time. Some of the works, I didn't keep the end, but it made me feel bad..."
