jade carver

I didn't rest until midnight last night, and woke up a little later the next day.As soon as Li Rui opened his eyes, he saw Cheng Ye rubbing his eyes, like a kitten washing his face, grabbing him with one hand, and rubbing his eyes back and forth with the other, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.He kissed Cheng Ye's forehead, "Get up, I have to go out later, if I don't go home today, I'm afraid my aunt will come to arrest you..."

Cheng Ye also smiled when he thought of Aunt Fat.

The old captain of the team was still in good health. He was very surprised to see that Li Rui could be found, and then he became happy again, "Oh! Li Rui, it took a lot of trouble to find them all!"

Li Rui went in to deliver the New Year gift to the old captain, so he would be left for dinner at noon.The old captain wanted to have a drink with Li Rui, but Li Rui politely refused, "I brought the car here, and I have to go home in the afternoon, so it's not convenient to drink."

The old team leader also drove the car himself, so he didn't force it, "It should be, safety first. Back then when we raced together, it was very cold at night in winter. Dare to take such a small sip, tsk tsk!"

Li Rui also thought about what happened back then. It was interesting to think about the hardships he had suffered at that time.He talked with the old captain for a long time, from the acquaintances in the team to the time when the old captain was in high spirits, and then talked about Li Rui's father.

The old captain respected Li Rui's father very much, and when he talked about it, he deliberately didn't mention the accident in Li Rui's family, but his tone was somewhat embarrassing, "Your father was a very famous man back then, we can get along well here, who Don’t you know? It’s a pity.”

Li Rui smiled and said nothing. He rarely mentioned family affairs to outsiders. Except for his uncle's family and Cheng Ye, he didn't talk about it with others.Whether his father was a hero or a jerk in the eyes of others, it didn't matter to Li Rui.The same blood flowed on them, he raised him, although he behaved rudely, but he didn't tell his family, he is definitely a good father who loves his children!These are enough.

It's much better than that woman, isn't it... Li Rui's eyes darkened, and he lowered his head and drank tea to cover it.

Cheng Ye secretly looked at Li Rui's face, carefully peeled the clams for him to eat, and stir-fried them with chili, which Li Rui liked to eat before.

The old captain also saw Cheng Ye's small movements, and asked Li Rui with a smile, "Is your brother raised so big?"

Li Rui used to be a sports car, and every time he went out, he would bring some gadgets for Cheng Ye. The whole team knew that Li Rui had a younger brother in his family.He heard the old captain say, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, he rubbed Cheng Ye's head, "Yeah, I'm going to college soon, the school recommends me!"

The college students were quite amazing back then, the old team leader looked at Cheng Ye and boasted fiercely, he raised his head in embarrassment, and just buried his head in peeling the clam shells for Li Rui, picking out the flesh one by one Put into a small bowl.

"What a caring boy, your brother really loves you for nothing!" The old captain drank a small glass of wine by himself, happy in his heart, and sincerely praised Cheng Ye.

Li Rui accepted all the compliments, and it was no different from praising himself in his ears. At the end, he replied for Cheng Ye, "No, you are obedient!"

The two returned from the city and went directly to their uncle's house.The fat aunt heard the sound of the car early in the morning, and she was waiting for them at the door.

Cheng Ye was used to his own set of grinding jade mounds, so he only went to Lao Xia's place to cut a rough shape with a machine, and then brought tools to Fat Auntie's side to do the work.

After Li Rui talked about his affairs with his uncle, he heard him talk about wanting to make wood furniture, so he also discussed a few words. "Uncle, I heard that mahogany preserves its value, shall we get some mahogany?"

The uncle was also happy, and passed a cigarette to his nephew, "Nonsense, of course I know that mahogany is valuable. In the early years, the old furniture of rich people were all made of mahogany... There are few such things in the first place. If you want to make new furniture, you have to find old and thick ones! It's not easy to do."

Li Rui took the cigarette, lit it for his uncle first, and then took a puff slowly by himself, "This time our big boss bought some things from Southeast Asia, and he seems to be familiar with that side. Ask back, maybe you can take some."

Uncle didn't expect Li Rui to get it, but he was satisfied that the child could say this, so he nodded and agreed with a smile.But I still told Li Rui, "Don't do anything illegal. If the company doesn't agree, don't force it. Do you hear me? Our family is not short of money now. Uncle just wants to take advantage of the fact that he can still work. You save some money to marry a wife..."

Li Rui almost choked the cigarette down his throat, and coughed a few times, "Uncle, don't worry, I haven't made up my mind yet."

The uncle narrowed his eyes and nodded accordingly, but his understanding was obviously different from Li Rui's, "It's not urgent, your work is important, so don't worry about these! There are better girls nearby, uncle will give you Let me know, you can pick and choose when you send the photos back! Hey, you are getting more and more excited, and now there are several companies who come to your aunt to find a matchmaker..."

Li Rui didn't say a word. He lowered his head and smoked a cigarette. It took him a long time to say, "Uncle, don't wait for me. I don't plan to marry a wife."

The uncle was stunned for a moment, and puffed out the cigarette in his mouth, "Well, don't marry at home? It's okay if you don't marry at home. Recently, the boys on the farm are buying buildings in the city to live in. Uncle originally thought so, Get a set for you and your wife, anyway, it’s not far away, and we have a car, you can come back and see us anytime..."

The uncle and the fat aunt had no children of their own, and they raised Li Rui as their own son. When he said this, he really felt sorry for the parents of the world.Li Rui was also unhappy. It was absolutely impossible for him to separate from Cheng Ye, which meant that the old Li family would have no successors.According to what the uncle said, he and the fat aunt are probably still waiting to hold the big fat grandson... This matter is even more hopeless.

It's hard for Li Rui to make it clear at once. He is not yet capable. He can't protect Cheng Ye, let alone take care of his uncle and aunt Zhouquan. He can only smoke silently.He smoked so much that only the butt of the cigarette was still in his mouth, and he was also frowning and preoccupied.

"Uncle, I think we should discuss about the mahogany first, right? I don't think about anything else right now." Li Rui dimmed his cigarette butt, and changed the subject again.Let's take one step at a time, the problems have to be solved one by one, the uncle and aunt are getting older, it's time for the old couple to change their jobs and hire a few people to enjoy the happiness.

Cheng Ye was sculpting his black jade in the room. He had already thought about the big size, and it was still two lions.When Cheng Ye was getting started, he used to carve a lion with a radish, and it seemed that Li Rui was with him at that time.When Cheng Ye thought of this, the movements of his hands became a little lighter, and he was in such a good mood that the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

The reason why jade is expensive is that large pieces of jade are extremely rare. There is a saying in the jargon that "long blacksmiths and short carpenters are jade craftsmen". This is the real situation of jade carving.The piece of black jade in Cheng Ye's hand was relatively large, but with the sloppy workmanship, it was really not good.If you put aside the work and only talk about jade materials, it will be eye-catching.

Cheng Ye is careful, and the idea of ​​carving is even more ingenious. Unlike the previous lion seals, this is a pair of Kodama seals.The single one is a small seal, and the big one is covered by the small one to be printed, and the two are combined to form a character.Coincidentally, both the big chapter and the small chapter have the same word, Rui.

The size was almost done, Cheng Ye put the two black jade lions together into one, and looked at it carefully.The two little beasts lay with their paws crossed, the little lion snuggled into the big lion's arms, as if asleep, but the big lion held its head up majestically, as if it was always on guard.The presentation is pretty good.

Cheng Ye thought that this piece was going to be sold for money, so he became more and more demanding on himself, picking on himself.After repeated revisions several times, even when the fat aunt called him out for dinner, he was distracted, and he was thinking about it over and over again when he slept at night.One night when I was sleeping, I even yelled in my sleep in the middle of the night, "The ears are crooked!"

Li Rui endured it for a few days, and finally couldn't bear it any longer. He got up, turned over, held down Cheng Ye, and took a bite out of his ear!

"Brother Rui...!" Cheng Ye opened his eyes in a daze, at least he recognized Li Rui and didn't mistake him for a lion.

Li Rui bit his ear and snorted.

The heat was in Cheng Ye's ears, and he wanted to hide from the itchiness, but seeing Li Rui's face, after thinking about it, he reached out and hugged Li Rui's neck, getting closer to him.Sure enough, the ears were immediately released.Cheng Ye rubbed against Li Rui, and put his legs on Li Rui's body, "Brother Rui, go to sleep, my uncle should wake up later, you have to go back to your room early..."

The two of them are no different from having an affair at this stage. Li Rui sneaks over every night to steal something, and there is almost nothing whole to eat.Occasionally, Cheng Ye was tired from working during the day and could only listen to the talk in his sleep. What was even worse was that it wasn't him who was shouting in Cheng Ye's dream, it was just that rotten lion!

Li Rui stretched his hands behind him, couldn't help pinching the soft tender meat again, and gritted his teeth angrily, "It's better to bring your textbooks back." Cheng Ye didn't see him talking in his sleep when he read the book!

Cheng Ye groaned, and rubbed against Li Rui flatteringly, almost clinging on top of him.

Li Rui reached into Cheng Ye's close-fitting clothes, then took off his own clothes, covered them with Cheng Ye's, and touched them for a long time.Cheng Ye couldn't sleep anymore, his eyes were watery, he sucked in a small breath to hold back his voice, for fear of spreading to the opposite side.

"Cheng Ye, wait for me..." Li Rui kissed the top of the hair of the child in his arms, and hugged him more and more intimately, "Let's go together."

"Uh, uh..."

Two people wrapped in the quilt to do bad things, like two silkworm chrysalis tied together, no one can do without the other when they move around.Sticking to it, he could only wipe the gun and let it go, Li Rui endured not eating it all, and only tasted something new.After Shu Tan still hugged and refused to separate, he touched Cheng Ye's back, feeling the slight trembling and indescribable satisfaction.

"Cheng Ye." Li Rui called out to the person in his arms, but only got a vague response.The little thing in his arms seemed to be extremely sleepy, rubbed his head against him, and was about to fall asleep.Li Rui laughed, put his arms around the baby in his arms, and silently read to himself what he wanted to say.

Cheng Ye, wait for me, wait for me to be more capable, and wait for me to take care of the family affairs, then we two can sleep in the same room openly.

The author has something to say:
