good boy

It's not that Lin Yu doesn't know anything. At first, Wen Zhouyao decided to go to Dunzhou. One of the reasons was that it was more difficult and dangerous than the other places arranged by Wen's family. He said it would only take two years.Now that the letter mentions that the return date is advanced, it means that behind the meritorious service must have experienced countless hidden dangers.

But Lin Yu couldn't even write him a letter home.

Since I got the letter back, I have been out of my mind. At night, the whole family sat around and chatted in the yard after they were busy.

This is a family project that has been on time for half a year.

As the promoter, Yang Huaiyu tried to change the depressed family atmosphere in this way.Lin Yu has always been the first to respond, and he has been surprisingly cooperative in the past few months.

He, the chief culprit, cooperated, and the others had no reason to refuse.This led to the fact that when the weather was getting hotter and people in Jianjing didn't like to go out, the courtyard of the Lin family became the busiest at night.

Yang Huaiyu and Xu Hui were collecting shoe soles on the porch. I don't know why this job is so popular this year. The women and old ladies in the neighborhood gather together to do this, while their parents gossip with others.

So far, everyone in the family has at least two pairs.

Both Lin Bocong and his second uncle Lin Changchun were squatting on the stone steps in undershirts, looking down at what the third uncle had just sent back some time ago, which was said to be a piece of broken porcelain from the Han and Tang Dynasties.

The sister-in-law went out on a date and hasn't come back yet.

Lin Yu was dragged by Lin Shuo and the others to play cards on the stone table.

"It's your turn." Lin Hao urged, "Lin Yu, what are you doing? You've been in a trance all night."

Lin Yu came back to his senses and randomly took out another one, which was too perfunctory.

Lin Shuo next to him crossed his legs, gave him a sideways look and said, "You're really good."

"What?" Lin Yudan asked.

Lin Shuo's voice was low, and he looked at him with the end of his eyes: "Are you afraid that your family will not know that you have been seduced by a love letter from your elder brother? Can you be promising?"

Lin Yu: "Shut up, really."

Lin Bo didn't know what to do after studying them for a long time, so he simply got up and stood behind a few boys to watch them play cards.

Lin Yuzheng didn't want to fight anymore, so he turned around and asked, "Dad, second uncle, are you coming?"

Lin Bocong put his hand on Lin Yu's shoulder, signaling him not to get up.

The second uncle also said: "You guys play by yourself, it's rare to have a little spare time."

Lin Yu turned his head and spread his hands at the old man: "Then you give me pocket money, I've lost all my money tonight."

"You still have face if you lose everything." Lin Bocong patted Lin Yu's head.

But he really took out a handful of pocket money from his pocket and stuffed it to him.

He also stood aside and said in a low voice, "Don't tell your mother."

Lin Yu said at the top of his voice, "Mom! My dad hid his private money!"

"How old are you?" Lin Bocong glared at him, "You still sue."

Behind him was Yang Huaiyu's feigned angry shout, and Lin Shuo answered at the right time, "Who doesn't know that Lin Xiaoyu was a complainant when he was young."

Lin Yu rolled his eyes: "It's not a man to turn over old scores."

How old are they, and they still talk about things when they were young.

A new hand shuffled the cards, Lin Yu was the banker, and the cards fluttered through his slender fingertips.He lowered his head and seemed to be concentrating, and suddenly heard Lin Bocong asking casually: "What did your brother say in the letter?"

Lin Yu froze and turned to look at his father.

The moment he looked into Lin Bocong's eyes, there was no expected accusation or guard, it was more like an ordinary inquiry, just like every time the elder brother came to news about them in those years when their affairs had not been discovered inquiry.

Lin Yu knew at that moment that the rest of the family felt the same way about Wen Zhouyao.

He lowered his eyelashes and said calmly, "I didn't say anything. It's not convenient for him to communicate and the time is very tight. I just said that he has nothing to do to reassure the family, and let me say hello to you on his behalf."

Lin Bocong nodded and said nothing more.

Lin Yu was silent for two seconds, and then said: "Dad, the time for my brother's return has been brought forward, but the specific time has not been set yet."

The people around were looking at the father and son.

Lin Yu could feel the silence behind him, and he also stopped talking, like a silent tug-of-war.

In the end, Lin Yu didn't know how long it had passed, but Lin Yu heard Lin Bocong say, "Got it."

At that moment, he was inexplicably relieved.

The father's softening seemed so insignificant, but Lin Yu could still feel the compromise and tolerance he made to his son.Sometimes he would ask himself if he was too impatient, after all, this was really cruel to his parents.

But Lin Yu was still selfish.

At least, he didn't want his brother to face the situation before he left again when his brother really came back.

The summer night is very short, and the chatter is gone without any trace of wind.

Later, the four seasons changed in rotation, and countless days and nights passed.

All Lin Yu's memories of Wen Zhouyao's departure for more than a year, in the end, mostly only bits and pieces of daily life remained.Arguing with opponents, arguing with partners, and sometimes hanging out with Li Suisheng and others is a day.

The family no longer shy away from mentioning Wen Zhouyao.

Sometimes Lin Bocong would ask, did your brother send a letter back recently?

No, for a whole year, six months and 28 days, Lin Yu never got a single word except for the short message brought back by the consignor.

Lin Yu sometimes feels that this time is so long, as if it is so far away.

The person who said in the letter that he would come back early seems to have become a dream he had called missing him.

The weather has started to get cold again, and Jianjing got colder earlier this year.

When I got up early and went out by bike, the grass in the flower bed by the road was covered with white frost. Lin Yu was wearing a pair of gloves, and even holding the handlebar felt a bit chilly to the bone.

In fact, he spent nearly a year on the ancient architectural sculpture project, going out by bicycle every morning and returning home at dusk.

But today is not because of this, the project was officially completed at the end of last month.

Today, the cultural relics museum invited him to cut the ribbon.

Shengchang Street is not far from the cultural relics museum, and it only takes more than 20 minutes to ride a bicycle.

When Lin Yu jumped out of the car at the door, he happened to meet the deputy curator of the cultural relics museum. This man was in his early fifties, much older than Lin Bocong.But Lin Yu has dealt with each other a lot in the past year, and he knows that he is more than shrewd and kind.

As soon as he saw Lin Yu, he smiled and shouted from a long distance: "Xiao Lin, are you here so early?"

"Morning, Director Xu." Lin Yu took out the gloves and stuffed them into the pocket of his coat and replied back.

The other party got off the car and saw the bicycle Lin Yu was pushing, and walked in side by side with him, and said, "I remember you have a car, right? Why are you riding a bicycle in such a cold day? The wind blows Is it cold?"

"It's not too far, mainly." Lin Yu smiled: "Besides, I'm young, so I have to keep a low profile."

"You boy." The other party scolded with a smile: "You have such a big business, why haven't you seen you keep a low profile."

Curator Xu admires Lin Yu very much, and thinks that he has a calm temperament at a young age, and he treats people sincerely but not tactfully.Coupled with his skillful skill of blending many carving techniques, the prospect is obviously broad.

For this reason, curator Xu also introduced many orders to Lin Yu, but Lin Yu basically rejected them all.

In fact, he doesn't care about quantity in carving now. On the basic level of guarantee, the orders are all picked and picked.On the other hand, it was also because of Yi Linglong's affairs, he really didn't have much free time, and the other party didn't force it.

The old and the young walked inside chatting happily.

Lin Yu glanced around a few times, always feeling that something was wrong, until he saw two rows of security guards outside the gate, and finally realized what made him feel wrong.

"This battle is quite big." Lin Yu was still in the mood to tease.

Curator Xu glanced at him with a smile and said, "You are definitely worth it today."

"Why?" Lin Yu was curious.

The other party revealed to him with a mysterious face: "Do you know what is the finale of today's unveiling?" Before Lin Yu asked, Director Xu couldn't hide himself, and said directly: "Fang Ding, the divine beast, did not find it in the end. The four returned ones know, they are inside now, they are all alive!"

He clapped his hands as he spoke, excited and showing off.

Hearing this Lin Yu was really a little surprised, because there is a third uncle in the family who has been in this industry since he was a child, it is hard for Lin Yu not to know.

"Didn't you say you haven't found it for many years?" Lin Yu asked.

Director Xu didn't hide from him, and said directly: "I found it overseas, and it has something to do with you when it comes to it."

Lin Yu: "..."

Curator Xu squinted at him: "The relationship between your Lin family and the Xichuan Wen family is not a secret. This time, three of the Fang Ding were brought back by the Wen family and a lot of well-known people, and they were handed over for free. We don’t know how many notes we sent to the higher authorities before they agreed to put the things in our cultural relics museum in Jianjing for storage.”

Lin Yu became calm now.

It is very understandable to spend money and material resources on this kind of thing after being able to get to the position where Mr. Wen is now.

It can only be said that it was very coincidental.

Lin Yu has never been absent from the greetings that should have been given to Mr. Wen for more than a year, and Mr. Wen's attitude towards him is the same as before, but he will not talk about his brother anymore.

His brother came out of the closet at Wen's family, and Lin Yu didn't want to add topics to some caring people before his brother came back.

Lin Yu followed Director Xu into the inside.

There are many people coming and going, some familiar and some unfamiliar.

Lin Yu is quite used to such occasions, after all, he has dealt with them a lot.

After the simple ribbon-cutting ceremony, the main event came soon.

There were many objects covered by red cloth on the display stand ten meters away. The young man who presided over the event whetted the appetite of the people present.Lin Yu didn't think it was new because he knew it in advance.

He was facing the exhibition stand sideways, chatting with the person in front of him who had worked with him before.

I heard the host say in my ear: "The people who can come to the scene today must be people in the industry and interested people. We don't want to be secretive. We will announce to everyone that we are at the end today, and it is also the most popular in our museum. Valuable collection."

When everyone was looking forward to it, they happened to see someone walking up to the host's ear and whispering something.

Then the host returned quickly, signaling the scene to be quiet.

Then he opened his mouth and said, "I have good news for everyone. Just now we learned that a representative of the donor who has been reluctant to show up came to Jianjing temporarily and just landed half an hour ago."

There began to be small noises from below.

But Lin Yu suddenly remembered, isn't the donor Wen's family?

Like a premonition, his eyelids twitched.

Then he looked towards the source of the sudden noise from the side, staring blankly at the shadow that came out from the side of the exhibition stand and went up the steps.

He just showed up without warning.

It knocked Lin Yu dizzy.

Lin Yu thought of what Curator Xu asked him before entering the door, do you know what is the finale today?

Lin Yu stared at the person who appeared, thinking, shit!

Today's finale is his mother Wen Zhouyao.

It was the person he had been thinking about for a long time, and the person who would almost kill him as soon as he appeared.
