Be a little landlord

Chapter 54

   Brother Yu used the 18 Wen he earned to buy a stack of light yellow tissue paper, and he no longer made white lanterns.

Regarding Brother Yu's lantern business, as a real brother, Brother Yan agrees very much. He not only encourages with words, but also supports with actions. The action that Brother Yan takes is not to make lanterns with his younger brother, but for his new brother. The simple lanterns made add color and ink.

Brother Yan holds a brush and draws on the lantern newly made by Brother Yu, even though he used to draw donkeys not donkeys, and people are not like people... After Yan Geer's unremitting efforts and countless pens and inks, his painting skills , It's been "Three days of farewell, you should look at it with admiration", Brother Yan likes to draw, although the things he draws now may not be lifelike and exquisite, but they are also very interesting.

In the room between him and Lin Lixuan, Lin Lixuan was reading a book by the window, he turned to look at Yan Geer, at this time Yan Geer was sitting in front of a square table, on the brown tabletop were light-colored lanterns, warm The yellow sunlight poured in from the window and shone on the lantern, and you could see the joints of the lantern circles. Brother Yan held the belly of the lantern in one hand, and picked up a pen in the other hand, bit by bit on the delicate tissue paper. Tracing, the nimble eyes follow the nib of the pen, and the aura between the flickering is like fish swimming in the pond.

Lin Lixuan put down his book and walked over to see what he was drawing. It was a picture of a lotus flower. In a clear and shallow pond, a green lotus came out of the water and bloomed. With a twist of his wrist, it became a lotus leaf. With a flick of the pen tip, it was a lotus heart. Brother Yan The cinnabar mole between the eyebrows is bright red and tender, which contrasts with the lotus picture he painted.

Lin Lixuan raised his eyebrows, feeling excited, he also found a paintbrush, snatched the lantern painted by Yan Geer, and under the blooming lotus, two clever and naughty little goldfish landed, under the lotus leaves of Tiantian, two The goldfish were playing and frolicking, and the aura almost overwhelmed the blooming green lotus.

Brother Yan took back the lantern, his expression was full of dissatisfaction, his eyebrows were almost drawn into a straight line, "Look at the goldfish you drew, it made my lantern ugly."

His new painting of lotus was destroyed before he had time to enjoy it for himself. The fresh and refined lotus, against the backdrop of the two goldfish, turned into a wild flower on the side of the road. Picking up the lantern, the first thing he saw was definitely not his lotus, but...

really made him feel depressed and angry.

Lin Lixuan hugged him from behind, and whispered in his ear, "Where is it getting ugly, it looks better."

The whole painting has become more beautiful, but his lotus is ugly.

"It's just becoming ugly."

"Look, this goldfish looks like you, with a chubby belly and a very powerful tail."

Brother Yan said angrily, "The other one is like you, with a big head and big eyes. It's big... just looking at it makes people feel angry."

Lin Lixuan buried himself in Brother Yan's neck while laughing, "How many lanterns has Brother Yu made?"

"This is the tenth."

"Oh? After doing so much, you also drew ten paintings?"

Brother Yan nodded, "Well, of course."

"No wonder, my brother Yan's paintings are getting better and better." Lin Lixuan said solemnly Praise yourself as a little husband.

Brother Yan couldn't resist the other party's solemn boast, and blushes appeared one after another on his cheeks.

"Seeing you making lanterns reminds me of something else."

Brother Yan asked curiously, "What is it?"

Lin Lixuan thought of something made of red thread, which is commonly known as "Chinese knot". Lin Lixuan found a few red ropes, and in front of Yan Geer, the thread followed his hands, skillfully flipped, and made a six-way knot. Pan Changknot, his grandfather in his previous life was fond of ancient culture, he followed his grandfather, practiced calligraphy and listened to opera, Pan Changknot symbolizes the harmony of yin and yang, endless life, implying eternity, when he was young, he personally made one and gave it to his grandfather.

"It's so pretty." Brother Yan praised sincerely, and then turned his fingers to make a more beautiful long knot.

The two knots are placed together, one with different ears, and the other is well-proportioned and delicate, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell whether it is good or bad.

"..." No matter how you look at it, this looks like revenge. Lin Lixuan was choked up for a while. His family said that his brother is innocent and kind, so he probably wouldn't have such thoughts of revenge. He must be thinking about it.

He already knew that these two little twins were ingenious, so why would he compare his strengths with his own weaknesses.

Making handicrafts is also a good way to make money. Throughout the ages, women and children have earned the best money. Look at the cloth tigers and sugar figurines on the street... Brother Yu is very skilled. He can not only make lanterns, but also make money. You can make dolls, Lin Lixuan draws patterns on blueprints, and the ancient versions of "Big White", "My Neighbor Totoro" and "Ari" are not difficult to make.

In addition to doing these, by the way, there are also bamboo umbrellas, no matter how big or small, you can make them. In this way, besides the lanterns with exquisite patterns, there are slowly more and more umbrellas on the Yugeer lantern booth. A little "My Neighbor Totoro" holding a purple bamboo umbrella.

Brother Yu strung all the money he earned with a red thread. Today, he was lucky. A merchant from outside wrapped up his goods. The merchant was wearing a felt hat and smelled of dust, so he knew that he had traveled far and wide. Merchant, he was attracted by the umbrella-holding chinchilla on Brother Yu's stall, and when he thought of his daughter, he softened his brows and eyes, and bought all the exquisite objects on Brother Yan's stall.

"It's a total of eighty taels of silver." Brother Yu held his face, very happy, and one day, he will use his own hands to earn back thirty taels of silver.

Brother Yu trotted briskly back to Lin Kee Restaurant, Lin Lixuan and Brother Yan were surprised, "Brother Yu, why did you come back so early, it's all sold out." Brother

Yu smiled and nodded : "Yeah, it's all sold out, brother, you see that all the money you make is here."

Lin Lixuan warned him: "Brother Yu, take the money and worry about it, don't be targeted by the bad guys."

" Don't worry brother , I definitely don't go to places where there are few people."

"Brother, let me knead the dough for you."

Not long after Brother Yu came back, a friend who hadn't seen him for a long time came to their shop, it was Huang Yuan.

It's been a few days since I've been gone, Huang Yuan is still so thin and tall like a bamboo pole, but, from his eyes, there is a strange light shining, he is much more energetic, and he completely disappeared from the boring life under the overpass before decadent and confused.

He greeted Lin Lixuan with a smile, grabbed the melon seeds and licked them in his mouth, his voice was cheerful and loud: "Do you know what I am doing at home these days?"

His high voice kept going out It reveals a meaning, that is: I know a big news, come and ask me.

Before the other party asked curiously, Huang Yuan couldn't wait to say it himself, "I read a book at home these days, um, it's just... um? Why do you have it too?" He glanced at the counter from the corner of his eye. There are a few books next to it, which seem to read "Feng Shen Yan Yi".

He yelled as if he had discovered something surprising: "You read it too, hey, one, two, three...five, my God, Brother Lin, I really want to see you in a different light." , I also like this book very much, but I didn't expect you to be more obsessed with it..." Buying so many identical books is really not something ordinary people can do.

"..." These were ordered by Zhao Liniang to buy and burn, Lin Lixuan covered his forehead.

Brother Yan who was at the side suddenly said, "Brother Huang, you have read this book too."

"Yes, Brother Yan, you know too?"

"Yes." Brother Yan replied without thinking, "This is Lin Lin Brother wrote it."

"What?" Huang Yuan was dumbfounded, and after a long while he turned his head to look at the expressionless Lin Lixuan, and murmured, "I knew that if you just liked this book, you would definitely not I bought so many books and came back to collect them. It turns out that you are the author. No wonder, no wonder. If I were you, I would not only buy five books, but I would buy ten books. No, fifteen books. "

"No, you misunderstood." Lin Lixuan had no choice but to tell the other party what his mother did.

Huang Yuan looked at him with understanding eyes, "I can understand, if it were my mother, her actions would be even worse, and everyone in the neighborhood

would know about it." "It's good that you understand."

Huang Yuan suddenly became coy I got up, and looked at Lin Lixuan for a while: "Hey, after reading the book you wrote, I also had an idea in my heart, I think I can also write a story... When I finish writing, you need to help me read it ?"

"Okay." Lin Lixuan replied with a smile.

"Sure enough, he is a good friend." Huang Yuan laughed, and felt much more relaxed after telling the story. At this time, the gossip in his heart came up again, "Where is Brother Qiu in your store?"
