For the favor of Mr. Shen

"Aura is there, but the technique is too poor."

"I won't go." Shi Yiqing refused in the next second.

Shen Mu smiled, as if he was watching a naughty child play tricks, his eyes were full of spoiling: "Okay, if you don't want to go, don't go, then you can call your mother and talk about it."

Shi Yiqing was in a dilemma again, if she called Tan Xiaoli, she would definitely talk a lot, blah blah blah.

"Why don't you think about it again?" Shen Mu said again.

Shi Yiqing wavered and continued to rub against Shen Mu's body.

Shen Mu couldn't laugh or cry, put his hands on his shoulders and pushed him away, looking into his eyes: "Ah Qing, don't do things you don't like, but you can't miss some opportunities because of prejudice."

"What chance?" Shi Yiqing thought that Shen Mu was going to say what Lin Lian said, and suddenly he was a little blocked.

Shen Mu tilted his head slightly: "What do you think of Uncle Liu treating you?"

Shi Yiqing thought back for a while, the first meeting was an accident, when his mother was not there, they immediately introduced Lin Qinghua to him after they recognized each other.

Later, because of my mother, I met him several times, and I felt the same as the first time I saw him. He was a very gentle and gentleman. There were many reports about him on the Internet, and he was a very attractive person.

He has no blood relationship with him, nor does he live with his mother, but he still cares about him, no matter what the reason is, judging from Shi Yiqing's feelings, Uncle Liu is indeed a very good person.

"Very good." Shi Yiqing said.

Shen Mu: "Then think about it again, is it Tan Xiaoli's original intention or Uncle Liu's expectation for you to attend the family banquet."

Shi Yiqing was silent, he lowered his head, and after a while began to stagger again, leaning forward.

Shen Mu couldn't help being moved by his cuteness, and let him fall into his arms.

Shen Mu just hugged Shi Yiqing and patted Shi Yiqing on his back to comfort him.

His Ah Qing has grown up and is now as tall as his shoulders. The young man's slender bones support his beautiful skin. Shen Mu can feel how fragile and sensitive his heart is under his occasional willful appearance.

He knew that a large part of Shi Yiqing's hostility towards Tan Xiaoli came from Tan Xiaoli's malice and prejudice towards him.

But he couldn't disrespect Tan Xiaoli, one was that she was Ah Qing's biological mother, and the other was that she was once the master's wife.And he will always feel guilty towards his master.

In the end Shi Yiqing agreed to go to Liu Yicheng's family banquet.

He didn't call Tan Xiaoli, but just sent a text message saying that he would go.

On New Year's Day, Shen Mu drove Shi Yiqing to the train station, watched him go home after entering the ticket gate, and went to have New Year's Day dinner with Grandpa Jiu Xiangjun.

Shi Yiqing was sitting on the train, and suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had known it was New Year's Day, he would not have agreed.

Sitting in a daze on the train bound for Dingzhou City, Shi Yiqing didn't want to play with his phone or sleep, so he just stayed in a daze all the way.

When I got out of the station, I saw Tan Xiaoli. She was wearing a black cashmere coat and a pair of high boots. She looked very neat and energetic.

Uncle Liu came with him, they saw Shi Yiqing almost at the same time, and waved to him.

Shi Yiqing walked over with the flow of people: "Mom, Uncle Liu."

Tan Xiaoli smiled, and reached for Shi Yiqing's schoolbag: "Is the journey going well?"

"No need," Shi Yiqing blurted out his refusal, and then realized that he was too blunt, so he smiled and said, "I can recite it myself, no matter how old I am."

"Okay, okay, let's go and get in the car."

Tan Xiaoli was very happy today. She had an argument with Shi Yiqing that day and after he ran out, she felt that Shi Yiqing would not agree. She didn't expect that two days later, he actually told her that he would come.

She feels that Shi Yiqing has grown up now and is very talented in art, she owes Shi Yiqing a lot, it just so happens that Liu Yicheng's family is in the art world, if they establish a good relationship, the benefits will be great.

The Liu family's money will not fall into Shi Yiqing's hands in the future, but the interest relationship can be involved.

The father-in-law and the mother-in-law have said this for a long time. When they get old, they believe in Buddhism and do good deeds with the intention of cultivating good fruits. Knowing that Shi Yiqing lives with an uncle who is neither relative nor relative, they always say that such a child is too lonely. It is Tan Xiaoli What a crime I made, I kept telling Tan Xiaoli to take Shi Yiqing to live here.

But at that time, Shi Yiqing was already very close to Shen Mu, and she herself had a younger child, two children, which was a lot of inconvenience.

Liu Yicheng is a person who likes to be clean. The one she and Liu Yicheng had was an accidental pregnancy. When they got married, they agreed not to have children.

She was pregnant only after being found out by her in-laws.

The last time Shi Yiqing was picked up during the Chinese New Year, he ran home by himself, and Tan Xiaoli was said a few words for this on New Year's Eve.

The in-laws have such a gentle personality, saying a few words is already serious.

This time Shi Yiqing was willing to come, finally healed a knot in his heart.

She doesn't want to be an irresponsible mother, but things have come to this day, which is more or less a remedy.

After getting into the car, Shi Yiqing and Tan Xiaoli sat in the back seat, and Liu Yicheng sat in the co-pilot.

Liu Yicheng didn't talk much. He sat in the co-pilot and occasionally talked to the driver.

"Ah Qing, when you meet your grandparents at night, remember to say hello, smile and be happy, okay?" Tan Xiaoli asked.

Shi Yiqing nodded: "I will."

He was originally a well-behaved and polite child, probably only Tan Xiaoli's own mother would worry about Shi Yiqing making a bad face in front of the old man.

Seeing his good attitude, Tan Xiaoli said, "Don't touch things when you go to grandparents' house. They believe in Buddhism. If you tell you something you don't understand, just nod your head. Don't ask questions."

When Shi Yiqing was about to say these things, I understood everything when Liu Yicheng called out from the front: "My wife."

Then he turned to look at her and said, "Don't tell the child this, it will make you nervous. I think Ah Qing is more sensible than many children. It's fine for the child to take it easy. My parents like children the most, so don't worry about it."

Shi Yiqing thanked Uncle Liu for his rescue, and smiled at him.

As expected, Tan Xiaoli stopped talking.

The car drove to their home first, and then set off to grandparents' house in the afternoon.

This is Shi Yiqing's first time here. I thought it was a flat floor in the city's CBD, but I didn't expect it to be in a community next to a forest park. The number of floors is not high, on the sixth floor. The large French windows look out to the forest park, and the view is very good. .

The area is also very large. Although the building looks quite simple, the decoration inside is low-key and luxurious, and the decoration is very tasteful.

"Ah Qing, do it for a while, Huaizhi will be back soon, let's go to grandparents' house." Tan Xiaoli said, and went to the storage room with Liu Yicheng to pick out some gifts to take with her.

Shi Yiqing said yes, and sat down on the sofa.

He has met this younger brother Liu Huaizhi many times, he is grandma's little boy, because Shi Yiqing doesn't live with them and doesn't see them often, he doesn't have any hostility towards Shi Yiqing, on the contrary he likes him quite a lot.

Because I think my brother loves to laugh and has a good temper, he will peel grapes for himself to eat.

About half an hour later, the aunt at home brought Liu Huaizhi back. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Shi Yiqing, ran over and shouted, "Brother, you are here!"

Shi Yiqing opened his arms: "Huaizhi, where did you go?"

Liu Huaizhi is seven years old this year, the same age as Shi Yiqing when he first arrived in Yongnan City, so he is very sticky.

The two of them hadn't spoken a few words, when Tan Xiaoli heard the voice of the child coming back, she hurried out to hug the child and ask for warmth.

Liu Huaizhi was also clingy to everyone, he kissed her face as soon as he was hugged by his mother, the mother and son giggled.

Shi Yiqing blinked, feeling a little embarrassed and a little funny.

Do you and Uncle Shen look like this to others?

After packing up and getting ready to go, the car drove on the road in Dingzhou city for almost an hour before turning into a road with no traffic and more plants on the side of the road.

After another 10 minutes, we drove to a group of villas in the mountains.

Shi Yiqing looked at the scenery outside the window, thinking that he had come to live in the mountains.

The car drove into a courtyard decorated in a very garden style, and a middle-aged man greeted them at the door, bowing slightly and smiling.

Shi Yiqing couldn't help but think: "Could it be the butler? Is this Mary Su's?"

Sure enough, the man greeted Liu Yicheng when he got out of the car: "Acheng is back."

"Uncle Liu, Mom and Dad should wait."

The person called Uncle Liu said gently: "No, Master and Madam just ordered a plate of new incense, and found it very effective in calming the nerves. They also said that I would share some of it for you to take back."

Liu Yicheng agreed, and a group of people followed the butler through the small garden in front of the door.

Shi Yiqing looked around randomly, feeling very novel.

It turns out that what was said in those film and television dramas and novels is true. There are real people living in this kind of place, with a big yard, a housekeeper, and the title of Mrs. Master.

The decoration in the house is also very ancient. After entering, there is a living room. After passing through the living room, there should be a dining area. Three people are busy in the open kitchen.

"Mom, someone is here." Liu Yicheng said.

An old lady with full head of white hair turned around, and when she saw everyone coming, she put down her things and walked over: "This is Yiqing, right?"

Shi Yiqing was the only person she hadn't seen before, she took care of him when greeting him, and talked to him first.

Shi Yiqing: "Yes, grandma."

Shi Yiqing is used to pretending to be cute. When he smiles, his eyes bend, and there is an inconspicuous dimple on the left side of his face. He looks very cute and cute.

Grandma talked to him, and Liu Huaizhi threw himself into Shi Yiqing's arms.

Grandma was even happier when she saw it. She likes harmony in the family the most, and it is best if everyone is harmonious and beautiful.

A group of people sat down on the sofa in the reception area. Tan Xiaoli was going to help, but was called back by her grandmother: "Yiqing is here, and he doesn't know the others well. Watch carefully, don't make the child cautious."

What Tan Xiaoli didn't think of, but an "outsider" thought of it, Tan Xiaoli couldn't help but blush, and said yes to sit next to Shi Yiqing.

The dinner was prepared quickly. Like this low-key but luxurious house, the dishes were also low-key and luxurious. Many high-end ingredients were prepared with simple home-cooked methods and placed on ordinary plates.

"Don't be cautious, child, you can eat whatever you want." Grandma said.

Shi Yiqing found that Uncle Liu and Grandpa didn't talk very much, only the women in the family were entertaining guests and chatting.

The atmosphere was much better than what Shi Yiqing had imagined, he even started to like this family, and he had a faint feeling in his heart how Tan Xiaoli's personality got along with such a family.

Or, she was just like that in front of herself and Uncle Shen.

In the second half of the meal, Grandpa, who hadn't talked much, spoke up.

"Shi Yiqing, I heard that you are also studying art now."

Shi Yiqing hurriedly put down the bowls and chopsticks, sat upright and replied, "Yes, Grandpa."

Grandpa: "Qinghua and Acheng once came to visit together, and I mentioned you to me. After reading your works, you have aura."

Shi Yiqing shook his head slightly, before he could say the words of self-modesty, his grandfather said again: "There is aura, but the technique is too poor."

Shi Yiqing had also heard this sentence in other places. At that time, he felt that he was still young and had nothing to worry about. He would just practice harder in the future.

He smiled at Grandpa, really not knowing what to say.

"Being a family is a blessing from the previous life." Grandpa took a sip of tea, looked at Liu Yicheng and said, "We are not too young, and we should support young people when we have the opportunity."

This is what Liu Yicheng has been doing in recent years, he nodded: "I know, father."

Grandpa was satisfied with his answer, and looked at Shi Yiqing again: "We still have to go to school."

Shi Yiqing didn't quite understand, and whispered, "I'm in school."

"What I'm talking about is that you're going to go to the Academy of Fine Arts and receive systematic training. If you decide early on, you're going to go to a special art examination school." Grandpa explained.

Shi Yiqing yelled in his heart that it was not good, his mother kept telling him these things recently, and he began to worry that Tan Xiaoli would take him to another place.

Fortunately, the topic didn't go any further, Liu Yicheng interrupted and said, "The child is still in junior high school, so it's early."

Shi Yiqing breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the innocent Liu Huaizhi, with the soup on his lips, said loudly, "Mom, why don't you let my brother live with us?"
