Designer

Qian Xin picked out the little butterfly alone, cut some models and elevations and posted them on the architecture forum, and then...it sank.

In such a large forum, there are actually very few active users, not to mention the lack of work and study at the end of the year, and no one cares about the posts with no clicks.He doesn't know how to play tricks, so the post is honestly called the scheme design of the sunken square. At the beginning of the text, for the convenience of description, it is referred to as the little butterfly.

Chen Xi'an has been paddling in the forum all year round, and he knew that he would sink when he saw the name of the post, but he was happy with it.

The design itself is eye-catching enough, but the extra publicity will make it taste like an advertisement. It just needs to carry the designer's own simple and down-to-earth style, lurking silently until the moment it is excavated.

Like a friend who has never met before, he left his own opinion, about the shape, about the model, the advantages and disadvantages are all available. A small handful of melon seeds was held in his hand and handed to his mouth as a token of thanks.

Except for him, there are basically no senior people who reply to the posts. The cold winter of the industry has already begun to emerge. The new posts in the forum are basically related to years of design and job hunting. Time to browse the forum.

On the contrary, there are more than 20 replies. It seems that young people who are new to the industry are kneeling down to ask for calculation and modeling software, making a lot of noise.

Qian Xinyi has been drawing pictures for seven or eight years, and he doesn't know the power of the Internet at all. He posted the post on the forum, just as a proof of design authority, and he didn't reply when he saw it, and he didn't go there every week.Chen Xi'an saved the link, and would check it from time to time until the holidays.

Little Butterfly hid in the section of the architectural plan with all her strength. After a while, she unexpectedly set off a small frenzy on Weibo.

In the middle of the night the day before the holiday, a thin layer of snow fell in City C, and the temperature dropped sharply, dropping to a low point that had not been seen in many years.The evergreen leaves on the side of the road are covered with ice cubes. When the wind blows, it is like wind chimes hanging across the whole city, and the blunt collision sound is everywhere.

Qian Xinyi was a little worried: "Your parents' pimples are probably colder than the city, can you bear it?"

Chen Xi’an is now probably living in a world where the temperature he can perceive is -5~10°. Even if the heating is turned on at home, he is still dangling in cotton clothes. This is one of the sequelae of hemorrhagic fever. The doctor said that recovery will at least take a lot half a year.

He is like a man in a jacket, with a thin down jacket inside and a long padded jacket outside, and he is very old-fashioned when he hears it: "It doesn't matter, we live in a town on the side of the mountain, and there is an earthen kang. I'm afraid it's the first time you go there. It's going to be unbearably hot."

As soon as Qian Xin hadn't felt the power of the kang, he curled his lips as if he didn't believe it, but seeing that he was so sure, he didn't bother to worry about it.

On the last day of work, even Miles started to make soy sauce. Everyone looked at the computer absent-mindedly, but they were all secretly swiping their phones.This day's work was unprecedentedly punctual, and at around [-]:[-], only Finn was left who needed to check the water and electricity switches.

The two were going on a long trip, and although they didn't need to prepare new year's goods, they needed to pick out gifts for the older generation, so they went to the mall after work.It only takes 10 minutes for Qian Xin to buy a ring, and with the addition of Chen Xi'an, the efficiency is doubled. On the way there, the gift preparation is arranged.

He planned to change Xi Juan's jade bracelet, and give Chen Hailou a new pair of glasses. Chen Xi'an is his own son, and he knows the ring size and prescription.

Qian Xinyi will definitely lose if he is more careful than him. He also wants to get a bracelet for his mother, but unfortunately he doesn't know the circle, so he will definitely not be able to ask. Simply wrapping a red envelope at the same price is more suitable for Peng Shixiang Mind.

As for his master Yang Xinmin, because of high blood pressure, he got a thief expensive fitness card for him last year at the senior club near the community. The old man spent three days fishing and two days drying the net. He is still planning to continue this year. .

Chen Xi'an, as an apprentice's daughter-in-law, came back to the door for the first time. After careful consideration, she decided to choose a chess set that suits her preferences.

The shopping mall was crowded with people, and the two of them were glad that they didn't have to go to the supermarket. The activities in the gold, silver and jade area were full of advertisements, and Qian Xin didn't know how to do it, so he made a fool of himself. Chen Xi'an felt like he was accompanying the owner to look at stone materials.

There are not many styles of bracelets, and the difference in material has a huge impact on the visual effect. Although Qian Xinyi doesn’t spend much money, he really spends more money than petty bourgeoisie. He only looks at the good ones. He thinks that gift giving is a kind of sincerity. Since he has chosen a bracelet, If the quality is too low, he will not consider it.

He stopped in front of a small revolving table and refused to leave. He pulled Chen Xi'an to the edge of the counter and said, "Will your mother like this?"

The bracelet on the stage was icy white and translucent. Chen Xi'an was a little startled when he saw the label. He was a little moved and a little helpless at the moment: "Don't scare her, our family pays attention to reciprocity, and the younger generation gives twice as much to the older generation."

As soon as Qian Xin was walking home with his shoulders on his shoulders, he would be jealous of this double return gift 15 years later. Unfortunately, he is an adult, and it is only more difficult: "It's not cheap, it's not expensive, you can see for yourself, which one is suitable I just bought it."

Chen Xi'an fully agreed, and picked out a bean seed jade bracelet. As soon as Qian Xin thought about the one on the revolving table, he began to feel that the bean seed was ugly. After a few more glances, it was okay. Optical shop to get lenses.

After getting the lenses, the two of them transferred to a larger stationery store in the city. Chen Xi'an immediately took a fancy to a pair of mahogany chess sets, mahogany chess seats and chess boards. They looked very high-grade, but they were not very expensive. .

When he was a child, he liked to play chess with Chen Hailou, but after getting together less often and leaving more, this habit disappeared, but he still likes chess, making decisions before making moves, he likes the feeling of deliberation.

Qian Xinyi is just the opposite of him, he is straight-hearted, he doesn't like this game of digging holes everywhere, he always loses really fast, so he doesn't have any love for chess.He watched Chen Xi'an squatting on the ground and feeling the chess pieces around, and somehow felt that Yang Xinmin's dream apprentice should be just like him.

The sealed box of the suit is close to 20kg. Chen Xi'an can't do physical work at present, and Qian Xinyi is carrying a big box alone. He feels that it is a crime for him to send such a big thing.

He hoped that the two of them could play quickly and happily, and it would be best if Chen Xi'an's chess skills were better than his master's, and told him to be half-convinced first, and when he saw something was wrong later, he would also care about his friendship when he beat Chen Xi'an.

In the evening, the weather forecast said that this year may be the coldest winter in the past 60 years. Blizzards are about to happen everywhere, even in the coastal areas that have always been warm. Elderly complications of high blood pressure and heart disease are high everywhere. Qian Xinyi was so scared that he hurriedly gave Yang Xinmin Went for a phone call.

There was no one answering for a long time, and finally got through. A bunch of familiar noises scrambled into his ears. Qian Xin was relieved for a moment, knowing that the old man was lively and lively at home tossing the New Year's goods.There was a smile in his eyes, he moved the phone away from his ear, and pressed the speaker button.

"Lao Yang, fried something good? Is it my favorite little yellow croaker?"

Yang Xinmin was in a hurry, just opened his mouth, and immediately turned on the taunting mode: "You bastard is not big or small! You are still a small yellow croaker, I fried it, do you have time to eat? Boiled fart!"

The last time Yang Xinmin called him over for dinner, Chen Xi'an was in the hospital, and it was hard to explain, so he said he was busy, and the old man hung up cursing, and then he became emotional, and Qian Xinyi felt guilty, so he leaned next to the microphone to act like a good boy : "Fry it, master, I haven't eaten it for half a year, so I miss it."

Chen Xi'an likes him in this state, he flatters with a smile, looks like he is coaxing people, but he is actually acting like a baby, very energetic.

It was also Chen Xi'an's luck that Qian Xin met Yang Xinmin. It can be said that this old man made his lover. He respected Yang Xinmin who had never met before, so he listened very seriously.

He heard the old man snort disdainfully, and showed mercy at the sound of the pots colliding: "...then you can get it tomorrow, at eleven o'clock, if love comes or not, I will give it to... to Lou Get off Lao Jiang!"

As soon as Qian Xin knew that he was going to blow up ready-made hot ones for himself, he was as moved as a dog, and hurriedly replied: "I will come, I will come, I will come, Lao Jiang is your enemy on the chess field, and you still have to eat your little yellow croaker." Win your chess, don't give it to him."

Chen Xi'an was laughing at him at the side, and he made a very soft sound, but it was miraculously heard by Yang Xinmin in the noise. Probably the older generation who are looking forward to marriage have special listening skills, but he didn't hear it very clearly. Knowing that someone laughed, it felt very close.

Yang Xinmin's heart moved, and he remembered the "1.8 meters", and his brows were brimming with joy. He coughed and said, "Xinyi, are you still outside? Who is next to you?"

"At home, next to Chen..." Qian Xinyi answered here naturally, but suddenly got stuck, raised his eyes to look at Chen Xi'an, and said, "Chen Xi'an, my friend."

There was a very soft emotion in his eyes, like guilt, but also like a request, Chen Xi'an stroked his hair, and mouthed to him: It's okay.

Yang Xinmin didn't know anything about it. He just heard the name and didn't distinguish between male and female. He was hit by the apprentice's undisguised tone. He knew this apprentice. If there was a drama, he would definitely not be so frank. He couldn't help being a little disappointed in his tone: "What? Friends? Colleagues from the new company? Male or female?"

"The guy who quit GAD together, man, I told you before, you have to meet that male Ph.D. who is very calculating." Qian Xin was worried for a second, and said, "Tomorrow I will take him for a visit. , welcome or not?"

Yang Xinmin regarded him as his son, and it was rare to see a friend who got along well with him. He said cheerfully, "Let him come. It happens to be stewed tomorrow, and it will be convenient for us to eat."

As soon as Qian Xin hung up the phone, she turned around and said, "My master has a fiery temper. When he becomes irritable, he looks like Muhammad Ali. Are you afraid?"

"What's so hot about having a meal?" Chen Xi'an put his arms around him and said with a smile, "Your master is so kind to you, I don't, I envy you."

"Of course," Qian Xin was complacent for a second, and soon burst into a sense of crisis: "I'm still envious! My welfare will be divided in half by you."

"Not right away," Chen Xi'an pinched the flesh on his cheek and said, "We'll separate when I recover to the point where I can't beat you without being beaten by your master."

Qian Xinyi felt warm in his heart, Yang Xinmin had high blood pressure, and he wouldn't dare to provoke him even if he had a hundred guts. Fortunately, Chen Xi'an was more than tolerant.

The next day he got up early, carried the chessboard set and killed it before 10 o'clock. At that time, Yang Xinmin was still pickling fish, and there was a large board in the living room, which was filled with things made yesterday, croquettes There are quite a few of them, the fist-sized steamed stuffed buns are so cold that they are ready to be loaded, and the concept called "Nian" suddenly hits the face of this old house.

Yang Xinmin didn't expect that Qian Xinyi's friend would have such a style, a tall man with an elite temperament, very polite, but it didn't make him feel that he was fake polite, and he got along very casually.

The chess set Chen Xi’an picked made a great contribution, and he captured the heart of the old man as soon as he showed up. He came and went with the chess piece Mani, muttering words, boasting that Chen Xi’an is a good young man, and excitedly can’t wait to carry it down to find Lao Jiang first. Show off.

The little yellow croaker that Qian Xinyi was worried about was still in the enamel basin, so he couldn't let him go. Yang Xinmin was addicted to chess, and he insisted on playing chess because he still refused to accept the old defeat.In order to prevent him from not returning for a long time, he sold Chen Xi'an without thinking: "Chen Xi'an is as good at chess as Lao Jiang."

Yang Xinmin immediately turned his head to look at him, his eyes filled with something like a rivalry.

Chen Xi'an didn't know Lao Jiang, and he didn't play chess with Qian Xin. He was afraid that he would exaggerate his claims, so he hurriedly said modestly: "Old Yang, my level is very average, and Xin Yi doesn't understand him."

Qian Xinyi's heart is full of troubles, he just doesn't like to play, so he can't even see the rules and techniques.

Yang Xinmin waved his hand and said with a smile: "This chess piece feels good in the hand. It's itchy. Come play a game with the old man. The fish needs to be marinated for a while."

Having nothing to do, Chen Xi'an had no reason to refuse. He sat down and started to play. The old man put on airs and asked him to play Hongzi first. Because he underestimated the enemy, he was dismissed by Chen Xi'an within 10 minutes. He was shocked to find that this The little brother is a bit powerful, and I have to do it again when I focus on it.

Pieces are falling in the house, Yang Xinmin likes to use chess pieces to beat the chassis, routines like to fight with chariots and horses, Chen Xi'an pushes steadily, hides a little pawn with a dark secret, and moves quietly in the local camp.

Qian Xin looked at it for a while and found it boring. His master's chess skills are very average. He could see that Chen Xi'an was giving way, and he became less interested. He reminded weakly beside him: "The fish is ready."

Yang Xinmin was concentrating on strategizing, and waved his hands a little impatiently: "Don't talk!"

Chen Xi'an raised his eyes to look, just as Qian Xin clicked his tongue, and suddenly looked back from his back, and said with a little surprise on his face: "Oh, it's snowing."

Chen Xi'an turned his head, and through the old window mottled with dew, he saw snow trails outside the house.

The last time it snowed so heavily in City C, he was alone.
