Painting Tang

"What's 'trafficking'? It's so ugly,"

Looking at Yu Tang who was completely awake by Zhen Hui's voice, Mu Jingchen frowned and said, "It's only a few hours since I called."

"This one,"

Zhen Hui outside the door scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "In fact, not only young master Yu Mian called, but also young master Zou Weiyi and the professor in the studio also asked Yu Tang... It is said that the teaching schedule has changed a lot recently, and Yu Tang won't go If so, the professor will be worried."

"He teaches sketching and the introduction to design. What kind of amazing teaching progress can't be done without Xiao Haitang?"

Mu Jingchen rubbed Yu Tang's sleepy hair while talking, Yu Tang narrowed his eyes slightly and let him rub it, and inadvertently rubbed his forehead against the palm of his hand.

It made Mu Jingchen even more reluctant to let him go.

"I don't know about this. They didn't tell me about academic matters. Even if I did, I couldn't remember it. But Master Zou is so easy to fool, it's sister-in-law's younger brother...or sister-in-law Would you like to call me back?"

Zhen Hui recalled Yu Mian's gloomy tone on the other end of the phone, it sounded like if he didn't send Yu Tang back to him within an hour, he would immediately rush to the barracks.

Mingming and Yutang are biological brothers, how come one is as gentle as a flower in April, and the other is as cold as a dead tree in winter.

"It should be that I don't paint my back anymore... Well, Mu Jingchen, you tickle me so much..."

Yu Tang finally couldn't help arching her body when Mu Jingchen's hand slowly moved from the hair behind his ear to his neck and spine, as if trying to avoid his hand, but invisibly stuck close to him closer.

"Don't paint the back? Then what to paint instead?"

"Let's see where to learn the structure next, maybe I have to borrow a general teacher from the medical school."

Yu Tang didn't care.When the old professor in the studio proposed to use real nude models to replace book illustrations, he gave many awe-inspiring speeches, from Greek statues to Michelangelo, from Norse mythology to Italian art exhibitions, the aging old professor He tried his best to let people distinguish nude models from eroticism, and these words reached Yu Tang through Zou Weiyi, and he accepted the job with confidence.

So whether it is painting the back, arms, legs or everything, it is like the difference between knowledge point [-] and knowledge point [-] for him.

"Oh."

Mu Jingchen snorted, thinking in his heart that if he said anything next week, he should quickly arrange the affairs in the barracks and go back to the studio to watch, in case the old professor got his little begonia stripped naked and hugged a bouquet of flowers in a whimsical way. What about pretending to be art statues for students to draw?

"Shall I get up and call Yu Mian back?"

Yu Tang moved his calf, and found that it was Dou Hua nestled on his lap. The little cat looked at Yu Tang faintly, then yawned at Mu Jingchen, and the cat let out a meaningful "meow".

"I'll take you to the office, hey, stinky tofu flower, you don't know how to give up if you're overwhelmed?"

Mu Jingchen picked up Douhua. This cat had watched a lot of things that he shouldn't have seen last night. Fortunately, he couldn't speak human words, otherwise he would have to silence him.

"You look a little tired?"

Only then did Yu Tang raise her eyes to look carefully at Mu Jingchen's face, looking at the faint bruises under Mu Jingchen's eyes, she asked in confusion, "Did I disturb your sleep?"

"I don't blame you, you sleep well, it's all Douhua's fault."

Mu Jingchen said decisively, "This cat snores while sleeping, it's so noisy."

"I've never heard a kitten purr."

Yu Tang took Douhua from Mu Jingchen's hand into his bosom, and before he touched it a few times, suddenly there were a few meow meow calls from the bodhisattva tree outside the window, which made Douhua feel refreshed and flapped his paws Following Yu Tang's arm, she jumped directly onto the window sill, and got out of the window to find other kittens to play with.

"There are little black cats in the camp!"

Following Dou Hua's figure, Yu Tang saw a black kitten hiding in the shadow of leaves. Its whole body was jet-black and shiny, with only four fat and puffy paws that were milky white. The tree vines disappeared outside the courtyard wall of the barracks.

"That's just Mick,"

Mu Jingchen propped his face, and patiently introduced to Yutang,

"It started from a clerk in the camp who came back from studying in the United States. He insisted that his paws looked like milk. That kid happened to be on vacation, otherwise you should be able to chat with him when you meet him."

"I used to think that the military camps were iron-cold demon caves with strict discipline, but your camp is very interesting."

Yu Tang laughed.

"Stay longer if you like,"

Mu Jingchen leaned closer to help Yutang straighten his wrinkled shirt.The two of them had accumulated the same night's smell on the same bed, which made them get closer naturally.

"I'll send someone to take care of your brother. You tell me what he likes, and I'll ask someone to take him to play."

"There's nothing he likes,"

Yu Tang shook her head, got up to brush her teeth and wash,

"I'll pack up and go back. It's not an option to hide here all the time."

"Your younger brother seems to be clingier than most people. Those cousins ​​of my family don't see each other at all. When they meet, they just pinch each other."

Mu Jingchen propped his face and looked at his little Haitang rinsing his mouth with puffed cheeks, and quietly concealed the faint smell of acetic acid in his voice with the gentle smile that Yutang often had.

"The younger sister in Master Mu's family is also very clingy."

Yu Tang blinked and choked Mu Jingchen until he coughed.

"That girl is good and doesn't learn all the time to learn bad. If you feel confused, I'll scold her again. And she's clingy. I never take that kind of thing."

"I'm just telling the truth, but Mr. Mu said it as if I was raising a teacher to ask a crime,"

After Yu Tang finished washing, he imitated Mu Jingchen to help him connect the water for brushing his teeth, and very considerately helped him wet the towel with hot water. When doing this, he said calmly, seemingly unintentionally,

"Mr. Mu can choose to ignore it or not, but I can't."

"what?"

Mu Jingchen paused for a moment, he thought that Yu Tang and Yu Mian depended on each other for life, they were both trapped in the small bungalow where there was no light, so it was understandable that they were closer than usual brothers.

In other words, even if Yu Tang wanted to escape, his world was only a few square meters dark, so where could he escape?

"My brother's illness should have fallen on me."

Yu Tang's eyelashes drooped slightly, reflecting the sunlight on his moon-white skin. At that moment, Mu Jingchen seemed to find a trace of helplessness in his eyes, but the gossamer-like emotions were fleeting, and Yu Tang He was not given a chance to confirm.

"He is afraid of life, no matter how hard the people you send will be annoyed by him, I'd better go back as soon as possible."

Seeing that Yu Tang didn't intend to say more, Mu Jingchen didn't bother, but silently wrote down this in his heart, determined to find out one, two, three.

After all, the past of the two brothers of the Yu family is like a pale page, without any trace of clues, just like a narration that has been living in a corner, spreading secretly and elusive.

"If you're not at ease, just go back. I'll drive you by myself when I pack up. I'm sure I'll drive faster than that boy Zhen Hui. You'll be home before noon."

Mu Jingchen took the toothbrush filled with toothpaste from Yu Tang's hand, and at that moment the words "old couple" came to his mind empty, which made Young Master Mu feel regretful and helpless.

It would be great if he was a bandit, he could ignore the law and directly kidnap Xiao Haitang and make him Mrs. Yazhai, no one can stop him.

"You don't have to worry too much. The person I found to take care of your brother is not a complete stranger."

"Who……?"

Yu Tang tilted his head, Yu Mian's ten-odd years of life, apart from the bitterness of the medicine and his brother, left almost nothing but a large blank space, who can be considered a "stranger" to him?

"Zou Weiyi."

Mu Jingchen said the name of Young Master Zou with a little bit of pride that was not easy to be noticed.

"I'm still wondering where Yu Mian borrowed the phone to call you."

Yu Tang sighed helplessly.

At the moment, Zou Weiyi, who had been "little-talked" by the two of them behind their backs, was driving the car with a sad face, and Yu Mian, who was tightly wrapped up because she was afraid of the sun, was sitting in the back seat.

If Mu Jingchen hadn't lied to him that it was Yutang's request, and he felt sorry for the Yutang brothers from the bottom of his heart, he wouldn't have done Mu Jingchen this favor!

Zou Weiyi thought to himself, although Yu Mian thought that he often sent some books and picture books, and she was close to him, but it was inevitable that she would feel a little weird when getting along with him.

For example, when Yu Mian asked him to help call Yu Tang this morning, her eyes were fixed on him like a falcon, and she asked him who took his brother away and where he went.

Zou Weiyi, who was brought up gently in a scholarly family, couldn't stand a child like Yu Mian the most. He was pitiful and terrifying, and made Zou Weiyi sweat profusely, and cursed Mu Jingchen countless times in his heart.

"Is my brother really taken out by the professor for research?"

Yu Mian stared at Zou Weiyi with distrust, and questioned for the umpteenth time.

"Really, why did I lie to you?"

Zou Weiyi touched his nose guiltily. Yu Tang had told him earlier that there were two things that Yu Mian must never know. He lied to Yu Tang that the other end of the phone was the hotel where Yu Tang and the others stayed.

"But why don't you go with Brother Zou? Aren't you also a teacher in the military academy?"

Yu Mian saw the way Zou Weiyi rubbed the tip of his nose repeatedly, and didn't listen to him at all.

"I... I am spoiled and spoiled. I like to stay in the city. I can't bear hardships, so I don't go. Besides, your brother asked me to help take care of you. What do you want to eat at noon? Now that you have gone out, I How about taking you back after a big meal? And your brother said he will be back soon, maybe he will be home after we finish eating, how about it?"

Zou Weiyi made nonsense nonsense, he, Young Master Zou, was originally the most down-to-earth and least dandy rich kid in Yulin City, so in order to deceive Yu Mian, he had to describe himself as delicate, arrogant and stubborn.

"it is good."

Yu Mian nestled in the corner formed by the car door and the seat, because she was not used to the bright sunshine outside, she had to pull the brim of her hat lower.

He knew that Zou Weiyi was one of the very few people who really treated the two brothers well, and he was a kind fool, so he didn't intend to make things difficult.

Seeing that he finally stopped asking questions, Zou Weiyi sighed silently and led Yu Mian into an Italian restaurant.

Because Yu Mian was sick and thin, he looked like a small lump, which made Zou Weiyi always feel that he was just a kid of fifteen or sixteen. Naturally, a kid likes to eat Italian food, such as pork chops and hash browns. There are colorful furnishings in the restaurant, which looks like a children's paradise.

"Give you the menu, see what you want to eat,"

The two of them sat down in the dark place in the back. Zou Weiyi froze for a moment when he handed Yu Mian the menu, and asked uncertainly, "Are you... literate?"

In his impression, Yu Mian was either at home or in the hospital, as if he had never been to school?

"My brother taught me."

Yu Mian took the menu with disdain, the only dissatisfaction he had with Zou Weiyi was his compassion for them.

Even though his family has been ruined for more than ten years, Yu Mian still has the noble self-esteem that he cultivated when he was young, and he is different from Yu Tang, he does not understand and is unwilling to restrain this arrogance, let alone accepting charity and sympathy from others .

"Ah, that's fine. Then you choose."

Zou Weiyi smiled awkwardly, but he didn't take Yu Mian's contempt to heart, but began to carefully choose his favorite dishes.

"Brother Zou help me decide,"

Yu Mian struggled psychologically for a long time, and finally remembered Yu Tang's advice to him, and she showed a rare smile to Zou Weiyi,

"I haven't eaten in these high-end restaurants, so I won't choose."

Zou Weiyi, a kind-hearted idiot, was filled with sympathy by Yu Mian's words. He ordered the most expensive staple food for Yu Mian. Ten minutes later, a steaming beef stew in red wine was served. placed in front of Yu Mian.

"Try this, the beef has been marinated in red wine to remove the fishy smell and enhance the freshness."

Zou Weiyi enthusiastically introduced it to Yu Tang, fearing that the ignorant child would think that the red sauce was undercooked blood.

"It's like a sour smell after rotting."

Yu Mian made a brief comment, which almost choked Zou Weiyi to tears on the spot, and felt more sympathy for Yu Tang's hardship of working hard to take care of this bear baby.

"Brother Zou, why don't you eat faster, I'm afraid that my brother will be worried when he returns home and finds that I'm not here."

Yu Mian looked at the clock three or five times during a meal, which made Zou Weiyi sweat profusely.

"Well, Xiao Mian, although it's a little offensive to say that, don't you think that you sometimes rely too much on your brother...I'm not saying you're bad, but you see, it's okay for your brother to go out with the professor for research. What a rare opportunity, because of you he has to come back non-stop, isn't it a pity?"

"Brother Zou, you may have some misunderstandings about the relationship between me and my brother,"

Yu Mian chopped it on the porcelain plate with a spoonful, the ear-piercing crisp sound caused everyone in the restaurant to look at them,

"My brother is kind to me not only because we have a deep relationship, but also because he owes me."

"……What did you say?"

Zou Weiyi looked at Yu Mian with a complicated expression.

The boy who had just grown up looked bloodless, like a crumbled gloomy silhouette in a newspaper, he stated with an emotionless smile,

"You may not know that my elder brother and I were once captured by bandits, and at that time, if my elder brother hadn't been selfish, he would not have been the one who was forced into the well and froze all night. It's him."
