This afternoon, under the big tree at the entrance of the village was particularly lively. The aunts and uncles in the village were very excited when they heard the news, and they all rushed to gossip about Lu Jing and Brother Yun.

"Is what you said true? Is it true that Lu Liehu is engaged to Brother Yun?"

"Can the village chief tell me the truth? I heard the truth in the courtyard!" "

I just said I saw Matchmaker Zhang this morning, and I wondered if the Liu family was proposing marriage to his youngest son, but who knows that it was actually Lu Liehu who invited him, it was really a great job."

The Liu family is the wealthiest family in the village, and the family is full of There are twenty-five acres of good farmland, and there are quite a few middle-grade and low-grade farmlands.

The youngest son of the Liu family has reached the age to talk about marriage, but he has already announced that he wants to marry a girl from the town. Otherwise, many people in the village would be greedy for this marriage, so when he suddenly saw the matchmaker Zhang from the town, everyone would be the first The first guess is that the Liu family found it.

"That's right, Lu Liehu is quiet on weekdays, and I'm afraid he has saved a lot of money." "

Just to tell a little brother that the matchmaker is willing to go to the town to ask a matchmaker, what a prodigal." "

More than that, I think When they went back, the gifts in the basket were unclear. Lu Orieu was carrying two pairs of chickens, and brother Yun was holding two pieces of cloth, one light yellow and one sky blue, both for the little brother to wear. "

Hey——"

Everyone was surprised, they had never seen such a heavy gift in the village, besides, the younger brother was not as popular as the girls, and even the dowry was lower than the girls, and everyone I don't understand that Lu Jing gave such a heavy gift just to marry a younger brother.

But this doesn't affect everyone's envy. Giving such a heavy betrothal gift will only increase if you propose a marriage, which is enough to show how much Lu Jing values ​​Brother Yun.

The atmosphere was quite harmonious at first, but a line of sarcasm suddenly inserted into the slant: "Lonely man and widow live together, who knows if they have done some shameless things, how can they be innocent if they are all seductive?" Birth?"

Everyone looked over and found that it was Wang Jinmei again, they were all muttering in their hearts, wondering why she was targeting Brother Yun again and again.

There were also a few people who couldn't help but echoed: "That's right, Brother Yun went to live in Lu Oruhu's house early in the morning. Isn't this the first thing you can do if you are close to the water?

" There are daughters who are in the flowering period in the village, and I can't help but feel subtle. Earlier, it was rumored that several families in the village were rejected when they approached Lu Jing to propose a marriage

. But she was still very angry when she heard such unkind words. She had already seen that Wang Jinmei might not like Lu Jing as her son-in-law, so she couldn't get used to Brother Yun, so she said bluntly: "Don't eat Do you say grapes are sour?"

Wang Jinmei said angrily, "It's just a shabby household with no father and no mother, who is too rare to get together."

Now it's not just Mrs. Wu, everyone's expressions are a little subtle, who doesn't know Wang Jinmei before Mentioning Lu Jing is all boasting, and the village privately rejected a few matchmakers before spreading the word about Lu Jing. When everyone thinks of Liu Yan, who has just turned 16, her family may be looking for Lu Jing as a matchmaker and was rejected. one of the

Wang Jinmei was overwhelmed by everyone's stares, so she packed up her things and left. A few helpers also reacted and silently shut up.

In the past, there were many voices slandering Brother Yun in the village, but those few people danced very well, and most people would not stand up for Brother Yun without knowing the situation. Now some people stand up, and the village head protects Brother Yun , The wind direction in the village seemed to have changed suddenly.

Sister-in-law Wu said with emotion: "Brother Yun is a blessed man. Mr. Xue has been doing good deeds all his life, maybe he is protecting his descendants."

"Yes, yes, some people still look down on him. This is a blessing in the future."

When Brother Yun's son turned sixteen, old doctor Xue also wanted to see him for him, but the rumors in the village continued, and many people Dislike his life experience, in the end there is no suitable one.

Later, when old doctor Xue passed away, how many people laughed openly and secretly that he lost his grandfather, and no one would want him. Seeing that he was about to pass the flowering period, who knew that he got such a good husband-in-law at the age of eighteen.

There are many people in the village who believe in fate, and when they heard this statement, they all wondered in their hearts, could it be true?

In the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain, Lu Jing moved the dining table to the courtyard, laid out paper and was drawing. He held a sharpened charcoal pencil, and even wrapped it with cloth strips, his hands were covered with black dust. He secretly planned to wait until he had money. Gotta get someone to make the pencil out.

Brother Yun looked at him sketching, and quickly drew the prototype of a house. He was still puzzled when he saw Lu Jing holding the charcoal, but now he is completely in admiration.

Seeing him staring at the blueprint with bright eyes, Lu Jing smiled and said, "What kind of house do you want our house to be built? I'll draw it out and go to the construction master tomorrow." Looking at the prototype drawn by Lu Jing, Lu Jing shook his head

. Said: "Brother Lu's paintings are very good, I like them very much."

The buildings painted by Lu Jing retain the basic structure of rural houses, and on this basis, some convenient facilities are added with reference to modern buildings.

A bathroom is added next to the stove, so that hot water for bathing will be more convenient. In addition to the main room, a wing room is added for friends to stay overnight. In addition, corridors are designed between the main room and the wing rooms of the stove to avoid the need for umbrellas when going from the main room to the stove on rainy days.

Lu Jing pointed to the drawings and explained them to Brother Yun one by one. Looking at the detailed and realistic drawings, Brother Yun had already begun to imagine what the new house would look like.

After Lu Jing finished explaining, he praised happily: "Brother Lu, you are amazing! I have never seen such a painting method."

Lu Jing smiled and said: "Brother Yun, do you want to learn? I can teach you. "

Brother Yun quickly shook his head. When he learned to paint when he was young, he was very different. He was ridiculed by his brothers and sisters who studied together. He didn't have any talent for painting and didn't like it. He didn't want to learn at all.

Lu Jing saw that his head was shaking like a rattle, as if he was afraid that he would catch him to learn, so he smiled and said: "Don't shake your head dizzy, and I won't force you to learn." After he finished drawing, he called

Brother Yun to come to him Come on, let Brother Yun mark him. Brother Yun is not used to using charcoal pens, so he went into the room to get a pen and ink, and wrote down carefully according to Lu Jing's words.

Lu Jing thought while talking, they are a husband and wife match, and the work is not tiring, which can be regarded as a kind of fun. But I still have to learn characters quickly, otherwise it will be very inconvenient to go out to do errands.

He watched Brother Yun lower his head and write earnestly, his brows were calm, his eyelashes were gently drawn down, his side face was as beautiful as a painting, his heart seemed to be lightly brushed by a feather, and there was a slight itchiness.

Brother Yun heard him fall silent while writing, and turned around suspiciously.

Lu Jing finally couldn't bear the itch in her heart, and leaned forward to touch his lips.

Brother Yun's eyes widened suddenly, and his face turned red visibly. He turned his head abruptly, and stammered, "Lu...Brother Lu, what's next."

Lu Jing's ears were also a little red, and he saw Brother Yun was so shy that his neck turned red, so he followed his words and changed the subject, and continued to read the marked content, but his heart was reminiscing about the cool and soft kiss just now.

Brother Yun wrote with his hand steadily, but he thought in his heart: Why is Big Brother Lu so Meng Lang, kissing him in the yard in broad daylight, ordinary couples are not so clingy, and they are not married yet...

He felt that the temperature on his face was rising again, so he quickly stopped thinking about it and focused on what he wrote.

After marking, Lu Jing put the drawings aside and took out the paper again to draw. Brother Yun turned his head to look curiously, and found that he was actually drawing men's clothes. Men's clothing does not have so many tricks, it is more like clothing designed for brothers.

Lu Jing's hand was very fast, and he finished the painting in a short while. Seeing that Brother Yun was looking at it seriously, he asked him: "Brother Yun, what do you think of this kind of clothes?

" I haven't seen this style of clothes before, it looks so good!"

Lu Jing continued to ask: "Do you think there will be little brothers to buy it after making it?"

Brother Yun realized what Lu Jing was going to do, and he actually Are you in the business of designing ready-to-wear?

He nodded and said affirmatively: "There will definitely be. There are not many styles of clothes suitable for the little brother in the cloth shop. The clothes of the little brother are all men's styles. Many big families have strict rules for the little brother. Strict, don't let the younger brothers wear men's clothes, so many younger brothers from rich families dress up as women."

Lu Jing never thought that the situation of younger brothers in this era would be so embarrassing, Brother Yun understands these things To be so clear, I don't know if I have had such an experience before...

Lu Jing felt more and more pity for him, but Brother Yun's life experience must have belonged to him. Brother Yun didn't take the initiative to say it, and he would not go to Jieyun. Brother's scar.

Brother Yun saw that Lu Jing didn't speak, so he asked the doubts in his heart: "Brother Lu, are you planning to open a clothing store?"

Lu Jing nodded and replied: "I have this plan, but I still have to go to the town to investigate Look, I'm going to go to the cloth shop to ask if they accept this blueprint."

Brother Yun understands what Lu Jing means. If the cloth shop is willing to pay a high price, it means that there is a market for his drawings. When the time comes to see how the clothes are made and sold, they will know whether the design idea is right.

Brother Yun has great confidence in Lu Jing. From his point of view, this blueprint will definitely be very popular, so he encouraged: "It must be fine!

" It's gone."

The next day, Lu Jing took Brother Yun to the town.

The person in charge of the construction team is called Zhang Mo, he first went to Shopkeeper Wang and asked where Zhang Mo lived, and then he and Brother Yun went to find Zhang Mo.

He has already walked the roads in the town very well, and soon arrived at Zhang Mo's house. Zhang Mo's surname is Mu, and he seems to be in his thirties.

Lu Jing took the drawing from his bosom and handed it to him. Mu Zhangmo unfolded it, and his eyes widened immediately. He had never seen this kind of drawing before, and he didn't know what he used to draw it.

He suppressed the surprise in his heart, read the drawings and markings carefully, and when he had an idea, he raised his head and told the two of them: "If you build according to the drawings, it will cost ten taels of silver." He paused and said: "I

see This blueprint is exquisite, but you made it?"

Lu Jing nodded and said, "I did it. How long is the ten taels of silver?" Mu Zhangmo

smiled and said, "No hurry, I just want to ask, is this drawing method acceptable? Teaching? If you can teach it to me, I will waive half of the ten taels of silver for you."

Lu Jing was not surprised, "I can teach it, but I can't guarantee whether I can learn it."

Wood Palm Moxi said: "This is Naturally. I took this business, and the construction period will be twelve days, and I will definitely build it beautifully for you."

Afraid that Lu Jing would misunderstand, he added: "Generally, the construction period of a house will not exceed ten days, but you need to spend more time adding a corridor."

Lu Jing nodded to express his understanding, and the two reached a consensus to build the house During the period, Lu Jing chose an hour every day to teach painting techniques to Mu Zhangmo, and Mu Zhangmo waived their salary of five taels of silver.

After the two had settled the agreement, they were about to sign the contract. Mu Zhangmo was amazed when he saw that Lu Jing had shown the contract to the little brother next to him before signing, and asked his opinion in a low voice.

There are not many literate little brothers in the town, let alone the head of the house is willing to ask the little brother for his opinion before making a decision. He has been in business for so many years, and he has never seen such a thing.

Although Lu Jing has learned some characters during this period of time, the learning time is still short and many characters have not been fully recognized. He used to think that the comparison between simplified characters and traditional characters is just lack of arms and legs. He is not good at writing by himself. question.

He didn't realize how naive he was until he really started to learn. He didn't know until he read through the whole medical book and found that he didn't know many characters: there is a difference between simplified and traditional characters.

Therefore, after reading the deed carefully, he found that there were still some uncertain words affecting his understanding, so he handed it to Brother Yun to help check it. After reading it carefully, Brother Yun felt that there was no problem, so he told Lu Jing in a low voice.

Lu Jing signed his name and handed one of the deeds to Mu Zhangmo. Mu Zhangmo saw that his signature was in two different handwritings from the one on the blueprint. That little brother wrote it!

Unlike Zhao's who is illiterate, he only knows that Brother Yun's handwriting is good-looking. He has studied the classics, and many craftsmen have read and learned skills in recent years. Judging from his eyesight, the handwriting must be It can only be achieved through hard work, but how can ordinary people train a little brother like this?

The cost of just reading and writing for a year is not low, and the school does not accept younger brothers, so the younger brothers can only ask their teachers to come to teach if they want to learn. The cost of one year may be several years for a family in the town expenses. Even Zhou Zhou's family in the town doesn't have such financial resources. What is the background of this little brother, and how can he appear here?

The little brother looks like a couple with this guy. Their house is going to be built in Qingxi Village. Such a little brother actually found a village man?

Mu Zhangmo couldn't understand it, but he is not a troublesome person, so he quickly suppressed the surprise and curiosity in his heart, and he said to Lu Jing: "The private deeds have to go to the yamen to go through the clear road to get the seal It just took effect, shall we go now?"

Lu Jing nodded, put away her contract and went out with Brother Yun and Mu Zhangmo.
