On New Year's Eve, every house is decorated with lanterns and streamers, and it is very lively.

Tu Yangcai finished the painting a few days before New Year's Eve. Tonight, she is no longer busy in the studio alone like on New Year's Day. Instead, she is invited to Zhen Xia's home with Gu Yu to have a New Year's Eve dinner to feel the atmosphere of the Spring Festival.

Gu Yu was very grateful to Zhen Xia's family who gave her the opportunity to spend the festive season with Tu Yangcai, and there were always smiles at the dinner table.

Even when Xiaohui and Xiaohe called her 'Little Junior Sister', she could respond with a sweet smile, and Tu Yangcai, who was watching the show, saw her goosebumps.

After dinner, Xiaohui and Xiaohe pestered Tu Yangcai to appreciate their New Year pictures.

However, Gu Yu, whose painting skills have been soaring recently, has gone straight from elementary school to high school, disdain to be with two junior high school students, and instead uses his expertise in cleaning dishes to help Zhen Xia and his wife wash dishes and dishes.

Zhen Xia's husband is an honest village farmer, and he is not good at getting along with young people from the city like Gu Yu. He took over the job of carrying the dishes by himself, leaving Zhen Xia and Gu Yu to chat by the stove while washing the dishes. .

"Little Gu, you are the model Miss has kept for the longest time. When I first met you, I really didn't expect that you could persist until now." Zhen Xia was washing the dishes, recalling the past.

"The models and assistants of Lao Shizi who came here before were very unpopular, and they always wanted to inquire about the lady's privacy through me. In the end, they were either dismissed by the lady, or they were not used to the life in the mountain village and chose to leave. Although you all You are from the city, but you are much more down-to-earth than them."

That is, a person like her who has the attributes of a house can tolerate loneliness very well. As long as there is food and drink, it is not a problem not to go out for a month or two.

Although there are no games for her to play here, she still has TV to watch and calligraphy to use, so she will never feel bored, let alone being by the side of the person she wants to accompany now.

Gu Yu accepted all of Zhen Xia's compliments, but he acted obediently: "It's all thanks to your tolerance. I definitely won't be able to stay so long in another place. It's not good to be in the city for a New Year's Eve dinner job." try to find."

"Haha," Zhen Xia was amused, and said bluntly, "I'm afraid I'm in your favor. Miss has been back to her hometown for nearly two years, and this is the first time she has agreed to come to our house during a festival. She is a poor child. , but she doesn't like to show weakness and complain to outsiders, so don't blame her for sometimes being unappealing, she just wants to draw a line with outsiders in this unflattering way."

I'm not her outsider, Gu Yu put the plate on his back, restraining the urge to blurt out his heart.

"I know Aunt Zhen, she has a sharp mouth and a tofu heart."

"That's right, it's the knife mouth bean curd heart—"

"--What are you talking about?"

Tu Yangcai came to the stove to drink water from a bowl, but unexpectedly found that she had become the center of the topic, and could not help interrupting the two people who were talking happily.

Hearing Tu Yangcai's voice, Gu Yu turned around and smiled: "We are talking about whether the knife for cutting tofu is sharp or not."

"unclear meaning."

Tu Yangcai has fully understood how thick-skinned Gu Yu can be, so in order not to expand the topic, she temporarily changed her mind and walked up to Zhen Xia: "Aunt Zhen, it's getting late, she and I will go back first. From Xiaohui Xiaohe, please say hello to me."

Talking about Tu Yangcai behind his back was arrested, and although he didn't say anything bad, the simple Zhenxia was still very shy, so when she heard Tu Yangcai's words, she responded repeatedly: "Okay, Xiao Gu, put the rest of the dishes away." I'll come, you and Miss go back."

"Yeah." Gu Yu dried his hands and walked towards Tu Yangcai.

"Goodbye, Aunt Zhen, I wish you a happy Chinese New Year in advance."

"Miss, you should be happy too."

As soon as he left Zhen Xia's house, Gu Yu was the first to catch everyone's attention: "Do you have any ulterior secrets? Why don't you let Aunt Zhen and I have a good chat?"

Tu Yangcai never succumbed to this kind of villain's behavior of complaining first, and immediately sneered: "It's not that I have any ulterior secrets, it's that you have some ulterior motives."

"There's nothing to tell? Didn't I confess my intentions to you?" Gu Yu was shameless, "But it's useless for you to call me away. I've already heard important information."

Tu Yangcai believed in Zhen Xia's character, but was worried that Zhen Xia would be deceived by Gu Yu's sweet words, revealing some things she didn't want Gu Yu to know, and was led away by Gu Yu unconsciously.

She stopped and frowned and asked, "What important information?"

Gu Yu's face suddenly enlarged before Tu Yangcai's eyes: "Your favorite color is actually red, right?"

"...It's too close." A panic flashed in Tu Yangcai's eyes, he sideways walked around Gu Yu, and walked straight forward.

Not to mention, I know the answer, anyway, it's the news I sensed from Xue Ying.

Gu Yu followed behind Tu Yangcai, already well prepared.

When your eyesight recovers, I will make you put on the red dress again.

In March, Gu Yu, who carefully observes the surrounding scenery every day and racks his brains to practice describing sentences, has become more and more proficient in using the Ambilight brush. Not super fast.

However, when she smelled the pen breaking, it also meant that Gu Yu had entered a bottleneck period—until she came up with a description that would allow the Ambilight Pen to be judged as the 'highest standard', she was just standing still.

Gu Yu thought, she probably lacked a breakthrough point.

She has discovered that the trick to using Ambilight brushes is to 'describe around Tuyangcai', but Tuyangcai is more homely than her, either hiding in the studio or bedroom alone, and rarely going out.

How to generate inspiration when you can't see people? Could it be that you describe Tu Yangcai eating in different ways?If Tu Yangcai found out, she would never see Tu Yangcai even when eating.

Just when Gu Yu was worried, Tu Yangzhang created an opportunity for her to inspire and break through the bottleneck period—Tu Yangcai was going to the city to deliver paintings.

In these days, apart from practicing with a pen, Gu Yu also did not forget to send text messages to fool Tu Yangzhang, using the sense word formula to understand the lives of Xue Ying, Tu Yangzhang, mother and son, and grasp the development of the situation on the other side.

Although Tu Yangcai is not liked by Xue Ying, she is a piece of flesh that fell from Xue Ying's body after all, so when Gu Yu feels Xue Ying, she can often hear Xue Ying talking about Tu Yangcai to Tu Yangzhang, so she knows a lot of things that Tu Yangcai would not tell her personally matter.

For example, Tu Yangcai in the past liked to wear red clothes the most, instead of the dull black, white and gray clothes now;

For another example, Tu Yangcai has already agreed with Xue Ying that she will go to the city to 'visit her parents' on the Saturday of the fourth week in March.

So there was the scene of Gu Yu getting up early on Saturday morning, sitting in the living room and waiting for the rabbit.

"Are you going out today?"

Gu Yushou's 'rabbit' appeared at the top of the stairs, and the 'rabbit' couldn't help asking when he saw that Gu Yu, who was usually slovenly, was all dressed up and put on light makeup.

"You can figure it out, my butt is sitting stiff." Gu Yu was wearing a chiffon shirt and jeans, and she was wearing an early spring lady's outfit, but it was enough to surprise people when she opened her mouth, "You should say 'go out with me today'."

Tu Yangcai sighed, and walked down the stairs with the rolled painting: "How do you know my schedule today?"

In order to avoid Gu Yu, she asked Aunt Zhen to prepare today's breakfast in advance last night, which seemed to be a waste of effort.

Gu Yu stood up from the sofa and greeted Tu Yangcai: "Did you forget that I have a strong background? Or didn't you believe it at all?"

"I can't believe that such a thick-skinned person actually comes from a rich family." Tu Yangcai handed the painting in his hand to Gu Yu, "Since you want to be a follower, you must work hard."

"Little case." Gu Yu happily took the painting, and then asked eagerly, "Can I see what's in the painting?"

If she guessed correctly, the picture here is her.Giving the painting of her to Tu Yangzhang felt strangely uncomfortable.

"No." Tu Yangcai refused coldly, "The author of this painting is about to change, so I want to ask him myself."

After speaking, Tu Yangcai went to the kitchen.

Gu Yu, who had eaten breakfast, said angrily to Tu Yangcai's back, "If you don't read it, you don't read it, you are stingy..."

He also asked her to ask Tu Yangzhang, fearing that if she mentioned painting, she would be blocked by Tu Yangzhang.But... It's not impossible for her to see the content of the painting.

Thinking of his hack, Gu Yu instantly relaxed, sat back on the sofa, and quietly waited for Tu Yangcai to come out of the kitchen with a full stomach.

At exactly five o'clock, the SUV sent by Tu Yangzhang arrived outside the house on time.

It took five hours to drive from the village to the city. Not long after getting on the bus, Gu Yu, who was sleep deprived, became sleepy.

"I'll sleep for a while, call me when I arrive. Don't leave me alone in the car..."

Unable to resist the call of the God of Sleep, Gu Yu yawned and handed the painting back to Tu Yangcai, then fell asleep with his head raised.

Even if I leave you, can't you still find me?

Tu Yangcai shook his head helplessly at Gu Yu who fell asleep in seconds, then looked out the window and let his thoughts fly.

No matter how sleep-deprived she is, once Tu Yangcai wakes up, it is difficult to fall asleep, especially when she is in the car.

Sleeping peacefully is better than heaven, but when you wake up, you may fall into the sea of ​​fire and hell by mistake.

Tu Yangcai had seen such a hell before.

Before going to sleep, the close relative who sat beside her peacefully, smiling gently and accommodatingly, suddenly turned into a blood man after waking up, hugged her with all his strength, and confided his last words to her with difficulty.

If the rescue came later, if the car had been burned to the point of explosion, she might have settled down in hell with her loved ones.

However, even if she was left alone in the world, where could it be called her home?

A former city dwelling that welcomes her paintings more than herself?Although there are people coming and going, but most of them are the current village houses where one person lives alone?But none of these fit the definition of 'home' in her mind.

The sky is wide and the earth is wide, but she is alone.

Tu Yangcai, who was immersed in sadness, suddenly felt his right shoulder become heavy, his fluttering thoughts were pulled back by external force, his face turned sideways slightly, and he saw a round and full head.

"I really envy you that you can sleep so soundly."

Heart suddenly softened, Tu Yangcai freed his left hand, and stroked Gu Yu's soft hair.
