Mr Gingerbread

Chapter 31

The wing room is relatively simple, but the cleaning is fairly tidy. The vegetarian restaurant here is quite famous. During holidays, many people come to climb the mountain and taste it. In addition, volunteers often come to help clean up. It is not a problem to stay for a few days .

Han Qiaoyu had sent a lot of things up yesterday, most of which were daily necessities for the temple. He brought a bag with him at the moment, went into battle lightly, entered the room where Lu Ming lived, and spontaneously put the Things were put together with Lu Ming's hiking bag.He sat on the bed by himself, tried it for a while, frowned slightly and said: "This bed, it seems a bit not very firm, right?"

Lu Ming wet a towel and handed it to him: "Sleep is enough."

Han Qiaoyu said: "If you move too loudly, it will make noise."

Lu Ming pressed the wet towel directly on his face, his ears turned red and said, "What are you thinking here!"

Han Qiaoyu: "..."

Lu Ming took the bag he brought up and said to him, "I'll go see the teacher. You can rest here and wait for me, and have dinner later. Do you want to eat fast food?" Seeing Han Qiaoyu nodded, this Only then did he go out with confidence, and said to him again when he reached the door: "I'll be back in a while."

Han Qiaoyu smiled, nodded and said, "Okay."

Lu Ming sent the bletilla striata and some things to Xu Tu, and reported to the teacher by the way. When he went to the backyard, he only saw Xu Tu alone. Dean Sun and other students were not here.Lu Ming handed the things over and asked strangely, "Brother Xu, where are the teachers?"

Xu Tu said: "The teacher went out with the young master in the temple. He heard that there is an open-pit waste mine nearby, and he wants to dig some ore to make paint. How dare Bo Xian and the others let the old man go up the mountain alone? I didn’t bring a few other students along with me.” He flipped through the bag, and sure enough, he saw a small sealed bag under the bletilla striata and ink, pressed it with his fingers, and immediately grinned: “Do you remember ah!"

Lu Ming didn't dare to take more, so he just said to him: "Remember to eat in the bamboo forest outside, it's not good for the master to see."

"I know, don't worry." Xu Tu patted him on the shoulder and said with emotion, "It's still good, I told that boy Boxian last time, but he just can't remember, and he doesn't know what to think about all day long. What. By the way, he called you this morning, did you receive it?"

Lu Ming nodded, "How do you know?"

Xu Tu clicked his tongue and said: "How do I know? You didn't see it. You didn't come back all morning and there was no news. His anxious face turned pale. He must have said that something happened to you when you fell on the mountain. I Let’s just say that you are such an adult, and you can take care of yourself, okay, you almost didn’t quarrel with me who slapped the table and stared..."

The corner of Lu Ming's mouth moved, but he still didn't smile.

Xu Tu paused, looked at him and said, "Did you two quarrel?"

Lu Ming said lightly: "No."

Xu Tu said again: "I haven't seen you come to our studio in the past six months. In the past, Bo Xian often asked you to be a model. Didn't you do well before the winter vacation? During the winter vacation, you two..."

Lu Ming interrupted him and said, "Senior brother, I'm really fine, even after graduation, you are very busy, and you know that."

Xu Tu nodded, thinking back to himself a few years ago: "Yes, a lot of things are going to be sold after graduation, but you don't need it, tell us when the time comes, and Bo Xian and I will help Move the dormitory. It’s not easy to put it in the summer vacation, so I will put it in Bo Xian’s first, and his teacher’s dormitory has always been empty, and I haven’t seen him live there.”

Lu Ming said: "Let's talk about it."

Xu Tu was warm-hearted, and immediately helped to plan: "Stop talking, this time we will clear the dormitory after we return from the mountain. It's just right, we will move it for you when we get back."

Lu Ming said vaguely: "Wait for another two days, I applied for a teaching assistant with the school and it will be approved in a few days..."

Just as he was talking, Han Qiaoyu came over. He rolled up his sleeves and saw that he was coming to help. When he got closer and heard what Lu Ming said, he only looked up and didn't say much, and asked, "Is there Do you need help with anything?"

It was the first time Xu Tu saw him, and asked, "Who are you?"

Lu Ming hurriedly introduced them: "This is my friend Han Qiaoyu, and this is Xu Tu, brother Xu."

Han Qiaoyu said politely, "Hello, Mr. Xu."

Xu Tu has a hearty personality. Han Qiaoyu said he would come to help. He really has a lot of work here. Today, Dean Sun took someone to dig ore, and he was left to work alone. He didn't show politeness to Han Qiaoyu and asked him to help cut some. Clean the lint and paper, soak it by yourself for later use, wait for Lu Ming to take the bletilla striata water and brush it again, the two brothers whispered a few words and got busy.

Han Qiaoyu was flexible and strong enough, so he helped a lot. The three of them finished the one- or two-hour work in half an hour. Just in time, the little master from the temple came to find them and said that they had finished vegetarian food. Only then did he wash his hands and go to eat.

Xu Tu got acquainted with Han Qiaoyu in a short time. Both of them are tall and burly, Xu Tu is stronger, and Han Qiaoyu is slightly taller than him, but he is also the kind of clothes that make him look thinner, and his momentum looks stronger .Xu Tu said to Han Qiaoyu: "What do you do, do you exercise regularly?"

Han Qiaoyu said: "Fortunately, I can also practice in my free time."

Xu Tu said: "Your hands are strong enough and dexterous enough, just follow along and you'll be fine."

Han Qiaoyu: "It's not as good as you guys, you're just learning."

"I'm sure I can't. If the teacher hadn't gone out, I wouldn't be able to do this job. Usually, the old man would lead Lu Ming to do it himself. Lu Ming's hand is the best for us here." Xu Tu pointed with a smile Pointing at his junior brother, he said with a bit of flaunting: "I'm not boasting, my junior brother is very capable, a man of the school, you come to catch the basketball game next time, drink, all the girls in the school can't wait to be there , ran to Lu Ming..."

Han Qiaoyu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lu Ming: "Go and see next time I have a chance."

Lu Ming turned his head to look elsewhere, but didn't answer.

When we arrived at the eating place, there was a large wooden table, and the seats were made of futons, and the iron wires were twisted to become chairs, which is quite unique.Han Qiaoyu took another look, and Xu Tu smiled and said, "This is quite special. I can't buy it anywhere else. It was changed by Bo Xian and Lu Ming together."

Lu Ming whispered to the little monk next to him, and then took out a clean rubbing bag from his pocket and gave it to him—it was just a cotton bag stuffed with something and wrapped around a few times with thick twine, like Like a sandbag - Lu Ming said: "Here, let's play with it."

This little monk looks younger than the one who went down the mountain with Lu Ming yesterday, with a round face. When he saw Lu Ming give him this, he showed a shy smile. He was very happy to thank Lu Ming with the bag. , and went back to the back kitchen to help.

After a while, the food was served, and everyone put a plate and two bowls in front of them, one plate of fried seasonal vegetables, one bowl of tofu stewed vegetables, and the other bowl of plain rice.Lu Ming's rice was replaced with a bowl of porridge. He ate the porridge slowly, and ate a lot of food. It looked quite palatable.

Han Qiaoyu didn't wrong himself, and even ate two bowls of rice. After he finished eating, the host came out and asked if the food was delicious. By the way, he thanked Han Qiaoyu for the things that Han Qiaoyu sent up the mountain yesterday. The food was enough for them to eat for a while.When Han Qiaoyu said that he would stay for a few days, the host was very happy: "It's just that there are not enough rooms here, and we may have to squeeze the distinguished guests."

Han Qiaoyu said: "It's okay, I will live in a room with Lu Ming, but I will trouble the master to prepare an extra vegetarian meal."

The host clapped his hands together and said with a smile, "Naturally, it is natural, one more person who eats vegetarian food, and one less person kills, which is a great merit." The vegetarian food in the temple is free, and the masters who live here really want to Do some good deeds, talk funny, not offensive, chat a few words and leave.The little monk followed behind, playing with the rubbing bag in one hand, walked two steps and came back to Lu Ming and said, "My master left some food for Grandpa Sun and the others, it was hot in the pot, brother, don't worry."

Lu Ming touched his head, "Thank you."

The little monk touched his head, grinned, and quickly ran away after his master.

Lu Ming ate less. After waiting for a while, he couldn't sit still. He went to the backyard to sort out the rubbings. He was delayed for a day, and he felt a little uneasy. He always wanted to do more things to make up for the previous rubbings.

It was rare for Han Qiaoyu not to follow. Instead, he stayed to chat with Xu Tu. He asked in a low voice, but he couldn't quite understand what he was asking. Xu Tu had a loud voice, but a few words came intermittently.

"...You haven't seen Lu Minglin's "Poppy", that word is really beautiful!"

"Stubborn! The teacher said to him 'write first, then paint'. Okay, I wrote for three years before I was willing to paint a piece. I usually went to the oil painting department with my portfolio on my back and never came back to paint. For three years, It's really stubborn..."

"Why not? He's very capable. Apart from our college, other professors are trying to poach him away. The oil painting department... Bo Xian also said..."

The voice gradually faded away, but the conversation between the two was still there.

Lu Ming went to an empty room in the backyard to tidy up the rubbings that were drying in the sun. He turned on the light and turned them carefully. He was patient with these calligraphy and paintings, and slowly put them into them after a while.Someone came over from behind and asked in a low voice, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Lu Ming recognized that it was Han Qiaoyu, and said without turning his head, "No, it will be fine in a while."

Han Qiaoyu stood aside and looked at him. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "You mentioned a lot of people's names a day, but you didn't mention that person. What's his name, isn't it Sun Boxian?"

Lu Ming glanced at him, but Han Qiaoyu didn't back away: "How is that person? Do you have a good relationship with him? Call him senior brother too...?"

Lu Ming put down the rubbing in his hand and looked at him: "What exactly do you want to ask?"

Han Qiaoyu looked at him carefully for a while, Lu Ming was a little thinner, but when he looked up, his eyebrows and eyes became more and more delicate under the light.He reached out and touched his face, and said slowly: "I'm so good-looking, I'm afraid of being looked down upon by others."

Lu Ming avoided him a little, lowered his head and continued to work on rubbings, and said, "Not everyone is like you. Get out of the way, I'm going to pick up paper."

Han Qiaoyu said, "How do you know he's not?"

Lu Ming was a little surprised, he looked up at Han Qiaoyu, Han Qiaoyu also looked at Lu Ming, and said seriously: "That Sun Boxian, how do you know that he is different from what I think?"
