Chapter 2: Emerald for gold

Views:

It is no small matter that there are suddenly more people in the family.

But no matter how people have already brought them back, they can't be pushed back.

In the large living room, facing the door, there are a pair of round chairs, the left half is a sofa TV, and the right half is a large round table for eating. After Ding Hanbai named the family, he leaned on the sofa and watched TV with his legs crossed.

He is like a leader. Since his attitude is clear, the other three brothers will follow. Ding Erhe flashed back to the east courtyard for a random excuse, Ding Keyu stood behind the sofa and watched TV, Jiang Tingen couldn't sit still at a young age, he jumped out and jumped in again.

No one responded to Ji Shenyu.

Ji Shenyu stepped on the thick carpet and panicked, sweat dripping from his back. It was the first time he came to the north. He thought the summer in the north was cool, but he didn't expect it to be so hot.

Standing alone, unable to move, I felt that I was an uninvited guest, so I sweated even more.

Ding Yanshou and Jiang Shuliu have always been in love, and they haven't seen much to say after a week, but Ji Shenyu didn't even catch his breath, so quiet that they both forgot about each other.

Until Jiang Tingen ran in from outside and shouted, "Uncle! You brought back those big boxes at the door?!"

Ji Shenyu's reaction was ahead of everyone else, he looked back at Jiang Tingen, then turned back to Ding Yanshou. Ding Yanshou pointed at him with the palm of his hand and said, "It's all a matter of caution. You young and strong people can help move it."

Jiang Shuliu hesitated: "Move to—"

Ding Hanbai's right eyelid twitched twice, and he heard Ding Yanshou say, "Move to Hanbai's yard and live in the room next to the main house."

The schadenfreude sounded, and Ding Hanbai punched Ding Keyu on the waist. He wanted to protest a few words, but there were only two empty rooms in his yard. He got up and walked around the sofa, stepping on the floor step by step and approaching. He walked in front of Ji Shenyu and said helplessly and disgustedly, "Let's go, Fifth Junior Brother."

Ji Shenyu followed Ding Hanbai out of the house with sweat beaded on his temples. He was breathing heavily because of nervousness. Several of his large boxes were locked and placed in the door, which made the others even more unhappy.

Ding Keyu leaned on his waist: "The big girl doesn't have so many things to get married, right?"

Ding Hanbai kicked with the toe of his shoe, Ji Shenyu hurriedly said, "Don't move!"

The three brothers were stunned for a while, and at the same time glanced at Ji Shenyu, Ding Hanbai put on his trousers pocket, and stood still: "Just me, don't move? I don't think you should move, you can move it yourself."

Ji Shenyu apologized for the anxious attitude just now: "I can't help but knock the things inside, I am in a hurry, brother, don't care about me."

It is said that reaching out and not hitting people with smiling faces, but Ji Shenyu frowned at this moment with a look of embarrassment, and also called Ding Hanbai a little out of anger. After getting off the horse, he beckoned to Ding Keyu and Jiang Tingen to move one, and he and Ji Shenyu worked together to move a few boxes back and forth to the small courtyard.

The small courtyard where Ding Hanbai lives alone is full of green plants. A gray wall is built at the back and an arch is dug. There are three north houses, two bedrooms and a study, and two south houses. Although there are quite a few houses, they are not big, and three large boxes are jammed at the door.

Jiang Tingen wiped his sweat and said, "How do you put such a big box in?"

Ji Shenyu looked inside the house: "Can you lean against the wall?"

"No." Ding Hanbai patted the dust on his trouser legs, "You live here, it doesn't mean that this is your territory, the three boxes are unsightly when you put them in, you can leave them when you open them, or throw them away, don't even think about building a house. The rubbish takes up space."

Ji Shenyu didn't know whether it was hot or angry, and his face was flushed: "I'm not broken, it's all useful."

Ding Hanbai is also a spoiled one, and he is most annoying to others with him and Hong Dingbai: "Who are you talking back to, you little Nanman?" The dog leg, followed to the door of the small courtyard.

Ding Hanbai said deliberately, "Call the second child, let's go to chase Fenglou for lunch."

Ding Keyu said happily: "Brother, I have long been greedy for the squid whiskers in the soup!"

"What squid are you eating?" Ding Hanbai looked back at the door of the house, "Eating Yangzhou fried rice today!"

The heat was rising at noon, and Ji Shenyu was standing on the steps guarding three large wooden boxes. Can he enter the house? But I haven't got Ding Hanbai's permission yet, what if I move the chair and touch the glass, what should I do when Ding Hanbai comes back

He has been serving his teacher since he was critically ill. He had hardly eaten or slept in the past while he was busy with funerals and funerals. Three or two sad events followed one after another. Now he is running back with Ding Yanshou. Standing under the sun, I dare not go anywhere, and I am afraid of causing trouble when I ask, and I almost fall down the steps when I am exhausted and anxious.

When Jiang Caiwei came, she saw Ji Shenyu standing in panic, her face flushed red, and the inner layer of hair was wet with sweat.

She hurried over to wipe off Ji Shenyu's sweat, and said, "I'm Han Bai's aunt, my brother-in-law has been away for several days, and I went to the store just now. My sister went to buy you daily necessities and new quilts, why are you standing there stupidly? "

Jiang Caiwei's appearance was tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, Ji Shenyu smiled gratefully: "Auntie, my name is Ji Shenyu."

"I know, the name is really nice, Master Ji gave it to you?" Jiang Caiwei pushed Ji Shenyu into the room, "How many of you, do you look at your face? You don't need to care, my brother-in-law has high requirements for apprentices, how many old friends are there? He didn't agree to the child's apprenticeship, and Han Bai didn't say it. Although the other people are riotous, they are also top-notch. So you were directly accepted as an apprentice and brought back from Yangzhou so far, they are awkward. "

Ji Shenyu hurriedly said, "I won't embarrass Master Ding, my craft is still good."

He wanted to say that he was not bad, but he was embarrassed.

Jiang Caiwei burst out laughing: "Eat first, take a bath and sleep after eating, and then clean up when it's cool at night."

Ji Shenyu used a separate duffel bag to carry some clothes. The number of pieces is small, but the workmanship is meticulous, and people can only think of two words - down and out. After taking a shower, he sat on the head of the bed and spread hysteria. He didn't dare to lie down until his hair was dry, for fear of getting the pillow wet and Ding Hanbai scratching his pigtails.

There was a copy of "War and Peace" on the bedside table. He picked it up and read it for a while. When he felt sleepy and fell asleep, he placed the book as before, pretending that he hadn't moved it. He didn't dare to sleep open, lying flat against the edge of the bed, not turning over or kicking his legs... It was more peaceful than when Ji Fangxu passed away.

He is not afraid of Ding Hanbai, he just knows what kind of upbringing is required under the fence.

Ding Hanbai had long since forgotten Ji Shenyu. He took his two younger brothers to watch a movie after dinner, went for a drive after watching the movie, and drove the car until sunset before returning.

When he entered the hospital, he finally remembered that there were more people, he pressed his pace and paused behind the lucky bamboo, and glanced at the three large wooden boxes still lying outside the door. After striding over, he jumped lightly into the bedroom, and began to examine the table and chairs like a leader.

Ji Shenyu was so frightened that he sat up from the bed, still holding "War and Peace" in his hand. He was so tired that he didn't wake up until sunset. He liked reading again. Chapter after chapter, forget the time.

Ding Hanbai walked to the end of the bed: "Didn't you get rid of my bookmark?"

Ji Shenyu lowered his head and looked for it. There were no bookmarks when the pages passed by. He hurriedly looked at the bed and the floor, and said in a panic, "I didn't see the bookmarks, what did they look like?"

"The gold piece is hollowed out, a cloud." Ding Hanbai emphasized, "Gold."

Ji Shenyu bent down and picked up the sheets, but he couldn't find the bottom of the bed, and the book became hot, but he didn't feel overwhelmed for too long, put the book down and ran out. He took out the key and opened the box, took out a package from the inside, opened the layers of old clothes and newspapers, revealing bits and pieces of jade inside.

Ding Hanbai was a little surprised, he couldn't see it from a distance, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Ji Shenyu's eyes were bright: "I will pay you."

He bowed his head and turned over the pile of uncarved jade materials, and after turning it for a while, he took out a small wooden box from the box, the lid was covered, and his hand reached in and out, clenched into a fist to prevent it from appearing.

Ding Hanbai understood Ji Shenyu's previous attitude, it turned out that the box was full of good things, no wonder it was so precious.

Ji Shenyu walked in front of him, turned his fist and spread out his palm, with an earring lying in his palm. White gold inlaid with jade, there is no choice in things or workmanship. He picked it up and looked at it, knowingly asking, "Give it to me?"

"Well, this is what my master gave me to marry my wife." Ji Shenyu never thought about getting married that far. Ding Yanshou told him that he would be both an apprentice and a foster child in the future. If he wants to make this place his family, he can't owe Ding Hanbai something the first day and have conflicts with his family.

He had never seen the bookmarks of the golden pieces, but looking at the furnishings in the house, it must be very valuable, so he had to pay for it with his most precious treasure. Ding Hanbai pinched the earrings a little bit, he felt that the book was ugly, and the bookmarks were kept in the study, just casually teasing, who would have thought this was serious.

"What do I, a big man, want earrings for?"

"You marry a wife."

"Only one wife? Why don't you give me the other?"

Ji Shenyu clenched his fist again: "For a gold bookmark for two platinum and jade earrings, you northerners will take advantage."

Ding Hanbai thought he heard it wrong: "Why do we northerners take advantage?"

Ji Shenyu asked back, "Then what is Xiaonan Manzi?"

"… "

Ding Hanbai couldn't sleep tonight, complaining that he was too merciless with his mouth. If he kept it at ordinary times, he would have choked the other party into smoke, but Ji Shenyu was not the same. Ji Shenyu was not aggressive at all, and his mouth seemed to be reasonable.

The most important thing is to take someone's hand softly. He turned over and stared at the bedside lamp. The earring was hooked on the fringe on the edge of the lampshade. The green jadeite was wrapped in light yellow light, which magnified the fine workmanship again and again.

Ji Fangxu really loves this apprentice. As for the master, if the proportion of the teacher is large, then it should be stricter, and if the proportion of the father is large, then it should be more intimate. But just after Ji Fangxu died, Ji Shenyu went away with a new teacher, and couldn't bear Ji Fangxu's love and respect.

Ding Hanbai had seen Ji Fangxu's works, and remembered each other across time and space. He lifted the quilt to hide his sigh: "Master Ji, your disciple is so unfilial, I will help you clean him up."

Before he could come up with a bad trick to clean up people, Ding Yanshou first set up rules for a few of their brothers, the first one being "no deception". Jiang Caiwei was also there. Seeing the dull atmosphere, she said, "Brother-in-law, they are all about the same age, and they will play together soon."

Ding Yanshou wore thick-lens glasses. He didn't have to look around, but directly locked on Ding Hanbai: "I'm always busy in the store, so I don't care about looking at you. Your aunt is my eyeliner. I know everything."

Jiang Caiwei collapsed and said, "How can you show the eyeliner at the beginning?!"

Ji Shenyu stood still, he knew that Ding Yanshou was meeting today to enact a protection law for him, but the more he did, the more uneasy he became.

Ding Hanbai was the most unhappy. After holding back for a long time, he finally said, "Dad, don't talk about bullying young people. This business only bullies one type of person, and it's bad craftsmanship."

Ding Keyu echoed: "Uncle, you have observed us for several years before accepting them. Why do you have more apprentices after a trip to Yangzhou Qitianle?"

Ding Hanbai wanted to laugh and got angry: "Go to your seven days of music, my dad is going to be mourning!"

Ji Shenyu looked at the four senior brothers calmly, Ding Keyu was scolded by Ding Han after he finished speaking, but Ding Erhe nodded and remained silent, which was considered to agree, while Jiang Tingen was young and straight, and immediately agreed. nod.

He probably understood that everyone was jealous of how easily he worshipped Ding Yanshou as his teacher. Yupin remembered several rooms, and everyone could get a share. If an outsider encroached on a share, he would inevitably lead to dissatisfaction.

Only Ding Hanbai is different. Ding Hanbai seems to only care about his ability. If he is a scumbag, it is estimated that this person can roll his eyes at him every day.

Ding Hanbai sat next to Ding Yanshou, raised his hand and wrapped his arms around Ding Yanshou's shoulder: "Dad, let's do this, let the fifth apprentice show his hand. I also want to see what the level of master Ji's apprentice is."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Ji Shenyu: "Pearl, would you like it?"

Ji Shenyu gritted his back molars: "Yes." After promising, he didn't give up, "Master, can I change my name?"

Ding Yanshou felt that the big hand on his shoulder was exerting force, and he thought that going against his own son's will, he would definitely not be at peace for a week, and after thinking about it, he felt that the pearl was not bad, so he teased: "The pearl is soft, moist, and blessed. , I look good."

Ji Shenyu's drooping face was never clear until he went to the machine room to select materials. Ding Hanbai led the way to unlock the door, kicked the door, and the sunlight poured into the boxes and cabinets of materials.

Jiang Tingen couldn't hold back: "Brother, I also want to..."

Ding Hanbai interrupted: "You want a fart."

Ji Shenyu's eyes were straight, but he was blocked before his eyes were full. Ding Han's long white body was blocked in front of him, holding a handful of agate in his big hand: "Choose one."

The light in the small courtyard was stronger, and five agates were lying on the table, waiting for Ji Shenyu to pick them. Ji Shenyu ran into the house to get a knife and a pen, and returned under the eyes of everyone. Before he could breathe, he looked at the five southern red agates of different colors.

Jinhong, Huanghong, rose red, cinnabar red…

Ji Shenyu stretched out his hand and grabbed the Jinhong one. At the same time, he raised his eyes to look at Ding Hanbai, and saw the other person's eyes full of "Oh hello". As if he was not a human being, but a piece of junk, a piece of junk.

Ji Shenyu immediately started to paint and began to draw shapes on Nanhong. What he drew was the pot of lucky bamboo next to the arch. The bottom of the pot was smooth and soft as it went up. The bamboo branches and leaves were messy and intertwined, and it did not reflect the direction of the wind.

Ding Hanbai didn't even want to look at it, he squatted down and smashed the cloves from the flowerbed. The cloves had his surname, he liked it the most. I cut my favorite flower into stubborn leaves, and got up just in time for Ji Shenyu to change his knife.

Pacing to the back right and staring, he couldn't bear it in just two minutes, he grabbed Ji Shenyu's wrist: "Why is the wrist wiggling? Are you rolling dice or playing poker?"

Ji Shenyu said, "I'm used to this."

"Get used to this? You're used to five nanhongs that can't even tell the difference between true and false, and you're used to drawing in a mess, and you're used to holding a knife with your wrists?!" Ding Hanbai suddenly said loudly, "Wasting time, shameless! "

The bottom-up test ended here, and the other people murmured happily, nothing more than mockery. Ding Hanbai got on fire and scolded Ji Shenyu like a cannonball. Fang Xu's spirit in the sky.

Ji Shenyu went in from his left ear and out from his right. After listening, he went back to the house and closed the door. He sat beside the bed and started watching "War and Peace" again.

He knew in his heart that others were jealous of him coming down from heaven to apprentice, and even more afraid of his division of the family's industry. After all, Yupinji's ancestors were all technical shares. If he doesn't show any edge, he should be able to comfort everyone for a short time.

As for Ding Hanbai, who cares about craftsmanship...

Well, what about him.

Ji Shenyu was holding the book, he didn't see the gold bookmark, but the emerald earring was so distressed that he didn't sleep well all night.
