Cheng Yu has been staying here these days, accompanying Qin Feng'er with Song Tianjiao.
"Sister-in-law, wherever you go, I'll go too! Take Feng'er and I to relax, we're going to be bored to death!"
"Okay, okay, you girl, you can follow me, don't talk nonsense!" Song Jushi couldn't be pestered, so he had to agree. Cheng Yu didn't want to leave Qin Feng'er. Seeing Feng'er's worried look, he felt very distressed.
It turns out that Qin Feng'er is a very sunny girl.
I took the brocade box from my aunt, and it felt quite heavy, weighing ten kilograms.
The three of them didn't ask any questions and followed Song Jushi all the way. Song Tianjiao and Qin Feng'er were talking and laughing, and didn't mean to answer Cheng Yu at all. Although Cheng Yu had a dark face, he was still very happy in his heart, as long as Feng'er was happy.
.
Not far from the small town of Jiegao, we turned onto a small dirt road. What we could see in front of us was an independent courtyard on the side of the road. The house was a three-story building and the courtyard wall was surrounded by a fence.
An old farmer carrying a load came across from the opposite side.
When the four of them were about to reach the gate of the courtyard, the farmer also arrived. They saw the farmer put down his burden. There were two baskets of crispy radishes in the burden. The farmer pushed open the fence gate and turned around to pick up the burden. It seemed that this was the yard.
people.
"Excuse me, is this Master Yue Shizhong's home?" Song Jushi asked politely.
"Dead!" The farmer replied simply, but his attitude was blunt, but it definitely didn't look like he was telling lies.
"Dead? Impossible! Then who are you?" Song Jushi continued to ask with confusion on his face. He must see Master Yue Shizhong today to express his sincerity. It is best to sign the contract directly.
"I said he was dead, and he was dead. You still don't believe it. Oh, forget it, I won't tell you anymore!" This time the farmer showed impatience, picked up the load into the yard, straightened his neck and shouted, "Come out."
!Get the carrot!”
The farmer took off his straw hat, revealing a head full of short white hair, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, and a complexion that was dark and red, and red and black. He didn't look like a farmer, but more like a martial artist. He looked like he was in his fifties.
It's solid.
"Master, master, the pig ran away again!" A young man and woman ran out of the building.
"Master? Are you Master Yue?" The young man he saw called Master Farmer. Song Jushi immediately realized that people should not be judged by their appearance. It seemed that this farmer was actually Master Yue Shizhong.
"I'm not Master Yue, please don't cause any more trouble!" The farmer denied that he was Master Yue, and at the same time, he raised his legs and ran towards the house. His anxious and nervous look was like the house was on fire, and there was no need to delay.
Song Jishi winked at Cheng Yu, and several people followed him in.
The farmer was in front. Knowing that someone was following him, he didn't bother to stop him and drove him away, so he went straight up to the third floor.
When Song Jishi, Cheng Yu and others followed and climbed to the third floor, they were stunned by the sight in front of them.
A woman with long hair shawl turned back and showed a bright smile to the farmer. What surprised Song Jushi and others was that this woman was sitting in a wheelchair. "Old Niu, hehe! I'm going to torment you again.
!" When the woman spoke, she pointed to the corner.
In the corner, there was a little white pig, with its butt against the corner and a pair of small eyes staring blankly at the farmer blocking the front. It made one or two snorts from time to time. Cheng Yu and the others noticed that the pig's four legs were
The ropes were still tied, but some of them were broken.
"Watch where you run, haha! Come on, my little baby!" The farmer spread his arms and kept talking to the piglet to attract the piglet's attention.
Willpower, suddenly, pounces forward.
The little pig was frightened, squeaked in surprise, nimbly burrowed its crotch, got out from between the farmer's legs, and rushed towards Cheng Yu and the others.
It was too late to say, but it was too late to ask for help. Cheng Yu released his spiritual consciousness and quickly captured the running route of the little pig. He relaxed his ape arms and lifted them one by one.
The hoof was caught in Cheng Yu's hands.
The little pig was struggling in the air, kicking its two hooves wildly, and neighing like a killing pig.
"This little brother, are you good at it? Thank you!" The farmer took the piglet from Cheng Yu's hand. Although he was thanking him, he still had an unwelcoming expression on his face.
"Master, you may have misunderstood us. We are..." Song Jushi quickly explained. From the attitude of entering the door, we can guess that Master Yue Shizhong must have misunderstood something.
"The misunderstanding is really ridiculous!" The farmer replied while tying up the piglet, his tone full of disdain and anger, "Do you, Jade Street, still have the shame? You fired the person unilaterally without any liquidated damages! Huh!
"
"That said, it seems that the master has really misunderstood. The little girl Song Jishi is so polite!" Song Jishi raised the gift in his hand.
"Song Jishi, are you Boss Song?" the woman in the wheelchair spoke.
The woman looks to be in her forties. Although she is no longer young, she is very beautiful. She always has a smile on her face and does not show any inferiority at all.
"Lao Niu, go make some tea and entertain the guests!"
Looking at the surprised expressions of Song Jushi and others, "Oh, Boss Song, I am Yue Shizhong, and he is my husband Niu Hailing." When the woman introduced her, her eyes were very dull, but she still smiled.
"Speaking of the dismissal from Jade Street, I would also like to thank Boss Song!" Master Yue raised his hand to stop Song Jishi and continued, "Actually, I have wanted to withdraw from the Jade World for a long time, but the contract has not arrived, and we don't
If I dare to unilaterally breach the contract, to be honest, I cannot afford the liquidated damages."
Out of respect for the master, Song Jishi and others did not dare to interrupt rashly. Lao Niu brought tea and everyone sat together in the room on the third floor, listening to Master Yue's narration.
Master Yue's original name was Yue Shiyi, but later people wrote him as Zhong. People who are not familiar with him would not know whether he was a boy or a girl. On the contrary, most people thought he was a man.
Out of love for the art of carving, I studied jade carving for several years in Southeast Province when I was in my twenties. I studied under Fang Shiyu. Fang Shiyu’s father is Master Fang Peiyu. The Fang family has been dealing with jade for generations.
A master figure appears.
In fact, Yue Shizhong's family skill is not sculpture, but tattooing, which is also known as tattoo technology.
Tattooing those beautiful patterns requires a certain foundation in painting, so Yue Shizhong also likes and is good at painting. Once when he was picking green on the mountains, he accidentally fell into a cliff and broke his leg. Fortunately, he was saved by Niu Hailing.
Niu Hailing's careful care and persistence deeply moved Yue Shizhong, and the two lived together and got married, but they had no children. To the outside world, Niu Hailing always appeared as Master Yue, and even the people in Jade Street also always
I thought Niu Hailing was Yue Shizhong.
The two young men Cheng Yu and the others met were two of Yue Shizhong's apprentices.
"We came here specifically to hire a master to come out again!" Song Jishi opened the brocade box, and inside was a piece of imperial green jade with the skin completely cut open.
The whole piece of jade looks crystal clear and green, with pure and flawless flesh and a long head.
The most important thing is that there are no cracks, which completely breaks the saying of "ten treasures and nine cracks", and it looks beautiful and delicious.
"This piece of jade is given to the master. Only you, the master, are qualified to process such jade." Song Ji's poem is full of respect, without any pretense.
Yue Shizhong's eyes only stayed on the jade for a moment, then moved away, "Boss Song, I'm afraid you haven't understood what I mean, I have withdrawn from the jade world!"
"Exit the jade world?" Song Jishi and others were confused and didn't know what to say.
"Yes, I don't plan to deal with jade in the future. The skill passed down by my family is tattooing, which cannot be wasted in my hands." Yue Shizhong took out an ancient book from the small table behind him, which looked like a thread-bound version.
, it should be very old, and it says "Yue's Tattoo" on the cover.
"This has been passed down from generation to generation in my in-laws' family. Unfortunately, it is a fragment. I want to complete it through my own efforts. After all, I don't have much time!" When Yue Shizhong said this, the smile on his face dimmed.
"Look, it's here again, don't think too much, it will get better!" Niu Hailing quickly comforted her.
Cheng Yu looked at Niu Hailing's body and wanted to laugh when he thought of his name. He coughed and forcibly controlled it, "I want to know, how long has it been since the master's leg was injured?"
"Oh, it's been eighteen years, and it can't be cured. I don't think so much, so I'd better seize the time and do something meaningful!" Yue Shizhong's smile returned to his face, and he seemed to feel relieved.
"If you can't cure it, you should also pay attention to rest. I, Lao Niu, will accompany you. If you are gone, I will be gone." Niu Hailing's face was full of sadness, which was in sharp contrast to his wife.
"Why don't you understand me? I'm angry with their nonsense about what it means to be illiterate and you can't tattoo. I must sort out the skills of tattooing and let the world know that people who are illiterate can also learn to tattoo!"
"The smile on Yue Shizhong's face disappeared and was replaced by incomparable anger.
Yue Shizhong's anger only lasted for a moment before he realized something was wrong, "Boss Song, I'm ridiculous! I really can't agree to your invitation, so please do as you please! I apologize!"
Since he could no longer work as a jade carver, there was no need to retain the guests. Master Yue issued an order to expel the guests, but he was very polite.
The next moment, Master Yue and Niu Hailing were suddenly stunned by Cheng Yu's words.
"I can treat your legs!" Cheng Yu glanced over with his spiritual consciousness and could see that the internal bones of Yue Shizhong's legs were still good, and the bone marrow was clear and normal. However, the muscles and subcutaneous nerves had atrophied due to long-term inactivity, which caused
The reason she couldn't stand up was that the broken bones were still growing out of position due to delayed treatment.
"You can cure it!" Yue Shizhong's eyes were full of doubts.
"Can you really cure it?" Niu Hailing didn't believe her ears.
"I can cure it! It may be a little painful, and you need to be patient for a while!" Cheng Yu looked solemn this time, full of confidence in his demeanor, and looked unquestionable.
"That's great, Shizhong, you can finally stand up and don't have to die!" Niu Hailing grabbed the woman's hands excitedly, with tears of joy flashing in her eyes. This news was so exciting.
In order to cure Yue Shizhong's leg, the two of them went to major hospitals as long as they had money. Unexpectedly, they spent all their hard-earned money on the hospital. In the end, they were sentenced to death. They had paid so much to the hospital over the years.
Got a job.
Hopes come again and again, only to be disappointed again and again.
