Painting Tang

"Brother Chen's distinguished guests naturally have to be treated with generous gifts, but I don't know which distinguished guest they are, and they like to eat this kind of small candies that are often circulated in the market?"

When Zhou Yuhui was so rejected by Mu Jingchen, the blush on her face turned from shyness to embarrassment, but she reacted very quickly, and just lightly slapped her slender eyelashes twice, her tone full of tranquil worry.

It's just that she is not as calm as her face in her heart. Nowadays, the rich young men like to eat foie gras steak, and they talk about coffee and red wine. No matter how bad the desserts are, they still have to pretend to be tasteful and say that they like it German sausage or cheese, cheap sweets like tangerine peel candy, which are considered by the rich and poor, will never be mentioned to the public by the group of rich guys who want to save face.

In other words, Mu Jingchen's distinguished guest is probably a girl.

Regarding matters related to Mu Jingchen, Zhou Yuhui's mind was spinning extremely fast. Her elder brother Chen didn't like those slender and noble ladies. This distinguished guest, let alone a girl, is likely to be a pure and plain person. Little white lotus.

"A teacher in the military academy."

Mu Jingchen replied slowly, showing no trace of favoritism and concern for her cousin, who could be said to have grown up in the Mu family's courtyard since she was a child.

"Oh, it's the teacher."

Zhou Yuhui breathed a sigh of relief quietly, thinking that there should be no female instructors in a place like a military academy.Seeing that Mu Jingchen was about to leave, she quickly followed and grabbed the corner of his clothes,

"That, Brother Chen,"

Zhou Yuhui lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look directly into Mu Jingchen's eyes. Her brother's eyes always seemed to be filled with a pool of broken galaxies, full of vigor and vigor, no matter which girl saw it, it was hard not to be moved.

"Tomorrow there will be a landscape painting exhibition in the Cultural Museum. I remember that my brother came to appreciate these calligraphy and paintings, so I would like to invite my brother to go and see them with me."

"A painting exhibition?"

Mu Jingchen was thoughtful, Zhou Yuhui saw that he didn't directly refuse as usual, so she couldn't help looking forward to it, and looked at him eagerly.

"Jingchen, your sister has just returned to Yulin, and she hasn't been in touch with her old friends yet. If you have nothing to do, you can accompany her for a stroll, so as not to hide in the military academy or hide in the camp, and become like your father in the future." Gun stick."

Mrs. Mu saw that Zhou Yuhui was looking forward to it. Her cute and cautious appearance like a little rabbit made anyone feel distressed, so she helped Mu Jingchen to persuade her.

"I don't know calligraphy and painting, and I'm afraid that Yuhui's interest will be lost at that time,"

Mu Jingchen passed Zhou Yuhui and directly answered his mother's words, "Master Zou's family knows a lot. I'll contact Yuhui and ask Zou Weiyi to accompany her."

"Do not……"

Zhou Yuhui wanted to refuse, but Mrs. Mu was very satisfied with Mu Jingchen's proposal.

"That's fine, Zou Weiyi's child is sensible and artistic, and he's many times more gentlemanly than you." Mrs. Mu took Zhou Yuhui's hand kindly, "Anyway, your brother is a rough person now, and he can't accompany you well. .”

"Understood, thank you, aunt, and brother Chen."

Zhou Yuhui concealed the unwillingness in her tone, and after Mu Jingchen left, she sent Mrs. Mu to the chess and card room to play mahjong with other ladies. Seeing Mrs. Mu having fun at the poker table, she quietly retreated out to find Zhen Hui inquired about this "distinguished guest" of Mu Jingchen.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked to the front yard, she saw Mu Jingchen who was about to go out and was called to Old General Mu, saying that something happened in the barracks.

Mu Jingchen, who was going to invite Xiao Haitang to see the art exhibition together, pursed his lips, and after explaining a few words to Zhen Hui, he hurried to Old General Mu's study.

His voice was not loud, but Zhou Yuhui could hear him clearly even when he was hiding behind the pillars.

She heard that Mu Jingchen asked Zhen Hui to get tickets for two art exhibitions, and asked Zhen Hui to send the tickets to someone's home later. Zhou Yuhui could accept these, but what irritated her was that she heard Zhen Hui and Mu Jingchen promised that "I will definitely hand over the ticket to my sister-in-law".

Sister-in-law?

Zhou Yuhui pinched the hem of her skirt into creases, Mu Jingchen had just returned to Yulin City for a few days, who could hook Zhen Hui and started calling sister-in-law?

It couldn't be Mrs. Yazhai who came back from the bandit's lair...Zhou Yuhui bit her finger, and a little bit of jealousy appeared on her usual sweet smile.Yulin City, who can Mu Jingchen meet in Yulin City...

She suddenly thought of the rumor that Mu Jingchen smashed the Panhua Building and paid a lot of money to find a beauty. Deep teeth marks were bitten on her fingers. Zhou Yuhui straightened the wrinkles on her skirt and immediately went out to stop a rickshaw.

"I'm going to Panhualou."

She clenched her fists and stepped onto the car seat, she just wanted to see what kind of stunning beauty was able to snatch her brother Chen away.

"Miss, I didn't say that Panhualou is not the place for a little girl like you to go,"

The coachman saw that she was pure and innocent, and she was pure and beautiful. If the group of hooligans entrenched in the Panhua Tower saw her, she would only be eaten up, so he kindly persuaded her, "If you want to have a meal Okay, there are many good restaurants in the city, Panhualou is really nothing good..."

"I'll go as I say."

Zhou Yuhui stuffed a red ticket into the driver's hand, "Don't talk nonsense."

The coachman hesitated for a moment, but still accepted the money, shut his mouth obediently and began to pull the cart.

In order for Zhou Yuhui to get to Panhua Building faster, the driver took a few shortcuts. They entered a narrow alley from the main road. When they passed the dilapidated buildings where the poor took root in piles, Zhou Yuhui still hated this place. The oily smell covered his nose with a handkerchief.

When she lowered her head to take out a handkerchief in her bag, a car passed them by, so Zhou Yuhui didn't see Zhen Hui who had parked the car and opened the door to get off.

Zhen Hui's work efficiency has always been very high.

He knocked on the door of Yu Tang's house with the ticket for the art exhibition.

After knocking two or three times in a row, Zhen Hui suddenly patted himself on the head. At this point, Teacher Xiao Yu must be working in the studio!How could he have forgotten.

Just as she was about to leave, there was a crisp creak, and the door of Yu Tang's house was slowly opened from the inside.

Zhen Hui looked into the room curiously, and couldn't help but gasped.

Yu Mian was holding a dim kerosene lamp and stood in the shadows inside the door, staring at him gloomyly.

Because of the illness, Yu Mian's skin has always been a sickly white, and the eyes he looked at Zhen Hui did not have the daze and panic that a child should have when a child looks after the house alone but is approached by a stranger. Instead, it was a piece of cold indifference, which made Zhen Hui feel like he was being pulled into the ice cave of severe winter.

The person who opened the door for him didn't look like a young man, much less a person, but like a paper man made out of rice paper soaked in old tea.

"Who are you looking for?"

Yu Mian spoke slowly, her voice seemed to be mixed with chaotic frost.

"Ah, that, may I ask that this is Yu Tang's house, right?"

Zhen Hui came back to his senses, he remembered that he had seen a photo of Yu Tang, the younger brother, in the hospital, but it was a group photo of the two brothers, and Yu Mian, who was next to Yu Tang in the photo, was smiling brightly , not the slightest gloomy.

"You're looking for brother, what's the matter?"

Yu Mian caught a glimpse of the Steepunk parked on the side of the road, he recognized this car, and the person who took his brother home was in this car.

"It's like this. My young master knows that Mr. Yu Tang likes to look at paintings. Tomorrow there happens to be a rich businessman holding a collection exhibition. My young master wants to invite Mr. Yu Tang to go shopping together. This is the ticket, and I would like to ask you to give it to me, little brother. your brother?"

Zhen Hui paused, and then added, "Brother, if you are also interested, I will send you another ticket later?"

"I'm not interested in."

Yu Mian snorted coldly, grabbed the ticket in Zhen Hui's hand and was about to close the door.

"Hey, hey, little brother, you must tell your brother."

Zhen Hui leaned against the door, was glared at by Yu Mian, and then walked out of their house awkwardly. In the cold wind, Yu Mian's bang made her feel extremely lonely.

Yu Mian silently watched Zhen Hui leave through the narrow window, then glanced at the ticket on the table.

Don't try to take his brother away from him.

Yu Mian quietly took off her coat, walked into the bathroom shirtless, and took a basin full of cold water.

He knew that with his current body and bones, this basin would not only cause a serious illness, but might even kill him.

But so what, as long as Yu Tang is by his side.

Yu Mian picked up the heavy bathtub with blank eyes, and splashed herself with ice water all over her body with a splash.

It is said that blood is thicker than water, and Yu Tang, who had just packed up her things and was about to leave work, suddenly shivered.

Feeling a bad premonition in his heart, Yu Tang quickened the movements of his feet, and instinctively began to worry about Yu Mian who was alone at home.

The child was weak and withdrawn, but he was the only one who depended on him.Because Yu Mian is obedient and smart, Yu Tang was very relieved to leave him at home alone at first.

Until one time, a drunken man in the neighborhood knocked on the door of their house, taking advantage of his drunkenness, to ask Yu Tang to come out to pick up the guests.

Yu Tang was not at home at that time, and when he came home from get off work, all he saw was Yu Mian, who was dragging a bloody arm and confronting the man coldly.

Yu Mian, who had always been weak, looked like a cold corpse possessed by a demon. Without batting an eye, he took a knife and drew a deep wound on his arm, calmly threatening the one who woke up after seeing the blood. man,

"If you dare to say that about my brother again, I will die at your doorstep,"

Yu Mian said lightly,

"Let you carry a human life on your back, and turn into a ghost to haunt your children every night."

The drunk man was so frightened that he fled out cursingly with the bottle in hand, and when he saw Yu Tang when he turned his head, he yelled "crazy".

Yu Mian also raised her head when she heard the sound, and the moment she saw Yu Tang, the gloomyness in his eyes melted into a cute sweetness, even though there was still thick dirty blood dripping on his arm, he moved towards her as if he was not afraid of pain. Yu Tang smiled brightly,

"Brother, are you back? Are you tired from work?"

Afterwards, while helping him bandage the wound, Yu Tang blamed him for his reckless behavior. Although Yu Mian promised him that he would not do this again, after all, he still left seeds of worry in his brother's heart.

Yu Tang, who was busy rushing home, passed by the Panhua Building. The entrance of the hotel was extremely noisy today. Yu Tang deliberately avoided physical contact with other people and walked through the crowd, and suddenly grabbed his hand. arm.

"Please...help me..."

A weak female voice came from behind him, and Yu Tang looked towards the place where the cry for help came from, and found that it was a girl who looked like a student, just like what happened to him the day he wore the cheongsam, being entangled by a few bastards.

"Help!"

Zhou Yuhui's eyes were red, and she dared to reach out for help because of Yutang's kind face. If she had known that there were such hooligans in Panhualou, she would never have come alone.
