"Oh, little brother Chujiu, why did I meet you here?" Old Bao smiled and walked towards Chujiu. The various beads he was wearing all over his body collided with each other lightly as he walked, making a tinkling sound. .

Chu Jiu hurriedly greeted him with a polite smile, but his attention was on the person behind Lao Bao.

"Ha, what a coincidence? You all know each other?" Dong Cang was very pleasantly surprised when he saw this, "It seems that my wine is running low, the waiter... bring me two more bottles!"

"My little brother Chujiu and I also met by chance, and we met here again today, which is clearly a lot of fate!" Lao Bao patted Chujiu's shoulder and said to Dong Cang.

"Hey, Master Bao, then we are really a family today, what a coincidence you say, this ninth day is my younger brother!" Dong Cang laughed.

"Come on, come on, there is also this little brother Chunsheng, who is the best friend in my circle, Tieci!" Lao Bao pointed at Chunsheng sideways, and said to Dong Cang and Chu Jiu.

Dong Cang immediately stepped forward and stretched out his right hand to Chunsheng: "It's a pleasure to meet you!"

After Chunsheng and Dong Cang shook hands, they were about to take them back when they suddenly felt warmth in their palms.

"Mr. Mu, it's a pleasure to meet you, you can just call me Chujiu..." Chujiu held Chunsheng's hand vigorously, with an eager expression on his face, which looked like a wolf with a big tail who had been hungry for a few days. I saw a little white rabbit.

Chunsheng: "..." You acted a little too much!Do you think you are an emoji?

Lao Bao: "..." I didn't tell him that Chunsheng's surname is Mu?

Dong Cang: "..." How does this kid know that his family name is Mu?

Ancient Jizhou was adjacent to a large lake named Jianlong Lake.With a radius of [-] square kilometers, it is one of the largest lakes in the North China Plain.

The lake is rich in all kinds of fish, shellfish, shrimp and crab, especially a kind of dragon crab, which is extremely delicious and enjoys a good reputation all over the country.

The table of meals that Dong Cang greeted was basically fresh from the lake.One serving of Dragon Crab per person has been properly arranged.

On the table, Chunsheng was on the right side of Chu Jiu.

While drinking and drinking, Chu Jiu kept peeking at Chun Sheng out of the corner of his eye—his crab-eating posture was quite elegant.

"Come on brother, thank you for your hard work this time!"

"Brother, I am not happy that you are so polite..."

Lao Bao and Dong Cang have been exchanging cups and cups, chatting very enthusiastically.

After Chu Jiu waited for Chunsheng to eat the dragon crab in front of him, he stretched out his hand and pushed his own: "I'm tired of eating this crab, please help me to solve it?"

Chunsheng squinted at Chu Jiu, and was just about to say, "Take it back, I don't want it." But he found that the crab that Chu Jiu pushed over had been carefully disassembled—the crab was still intact at first glance, but in fact it was fleshy. The shells have been separated, and the fat crab roe and tender crab meat can be picked up with a light pick with chopsticks. Even the most difficult crab leg meat is completely placed on the plate.

Chunsheng looked at Chu Jiu again, but the other party was winking at him: "Taste the crab I opened!"

Dong Cang turned his head, just in time to see Chu Jiu's strange face, he quickly turned to Chun Sheng: "Brother, take care of me, my younger brother has been naughty since he was a child..."

Chujiu: "..."

Chunsheng: "..."

After dinner, Dong Cang, who was drunk, did not forget to call a few younger brothers to drive in his place.

He directed the driver's younger brother at the entrance of the hotel, with the demeanor of a general: "I'm happy with the drink, you have to send the person to me safely!"

"Xiaojun, you drove my younger brother to my sixth uncle's house in this car..."

On the ninth day of the ninth day, he was about to ask Chunsheng where he lived, when he was dragged into the back seat of the car by the driver named Xiaojun.

"Oh, brother, you Maybach? I haven't driven it yet..." Xiaojun stepped on the accelerator before Chu Jiu could reply.

"Heizi, you take the two of you here in Master Bao's car..."

In the rearview mirror of the Maybach, General Dong was still directing traffic at the entrance of the hotel.

After a meal, Chu Jiu also drank a lot.The people of ancient Jizhou have a strong drinking style, and the wine they serve daily is above [-] degrees. However, the local Laobaigan is of very good quality, with no stamina or topping. It can be drunk to whatever degree.

On the ninth day of the ninth day, the alcohol capacity was okay, but he was a little drunk.

He leaned comfortably on the back seat of the Maybach and turned his head to look at the flashing street scene outside the window.

It has been several years since I returned to my hometown last time, but this ancient city of Jizhou has undergone many changes, many new high-rise buildings have sprung up...

"So many high-rises have been built!" Chu Jiu couldn't help sighing. You must know that ancient Jizhou is just a small city with a population of less than 500 million, barely enough to qualify for the fourth tier.

"The house price is still going up and down, brother, look at how far this neighborhood is from the city center, it's almost [-] yuan!" Xiaojun complained after taking the ninth day of the ninth day.

The car passed through the downtown area and drove north along Binhu Avenue. The road gradually opened up, and there were fewer vehicles and pedestrians. After a quarter of an hour, Xiaojun drove Chu Jiu into a high-end street by the lake. Villa area.

"Monet's Mansion" is printed on a huge granite at the entrance of the villa area.

Dong Changfeng and He Yunzhi were watching workers laying turf in the huge yard.

Seeing Chu Jiu coming, He Yunzhi hurriedly arranged: "Son, watch here for a while? I've been staring for a long time and I'm tired."

"Mom, I've been driving for a long time..." Chu Jiu looked helpless, "Just rest when you're tired, what's the use of staring at you all the time!"

Dong Changfeng also hurriedly chimed in: "The child is tired from driving, let him go and rest!"

He Yunzhi rolled his eyes: "You two are fine, fight against me together. Is it because I stared at it myself to make it look better? Look at the lawn next door..." After finishing speaking, he pointed to the room casually, " Alright, you can go and rest for a while..."

What a real mother!Chu Jiu lazily opened the floor-to-ceiling glass door from the living room to the yard.

Too lazy to go upstairs, he slumped on the royal blue Italian leather sofa that He Yunzhi had carefully selected.

"Look at the child..." He Yunzhi and Dong Changfeng finished supervising the planting of the grass, and just entered the room when they saw a speechless scene - Chu Jiu, who was sleeping on the sofa with his head tilted, smirked at the corner of his mouth, and was dressed in the morning The good sofa got a big wet with his squirt.

After dinner, Chunsheng walked out of the yard to the lake.

The gentle breeze in late spring blew across the lake, blowing the willow branches that had just softened by the lake with a little fishy smell.

A full moon like a silver plate hangs in the black sky, casting its own reflection on the water surface wrinkled by the wind.

An equally rough wooden boat is tied to the rough and simple pier by the lake, rising and falling lonely on the water's edge as the lake surface fluctuates.

A burst of crisp laughter came from the reeds not far away, blowing across the silent lake like the wind.

Chunsheng walked over following the sound, and the peaceful reed bushes suddenly rattled as he came, as if someone was hiding inside.

"What are you doing here? Come out?" Chunsheng said indifferently to the reeds.

The reeds moved, and a pair of small pink horns slowly emerged.

"Hey, who's there?"

A voice came from behind Chunsheng.The pair of small horns shrank back as if shy.

Chunsheng turned his head, and there was a figure under the willow tree a few steps away, walking towards him step by step.

Chu Jiu pressed the vibrating private plane in his pocket, and slowly approached the suspicious figure by the lake...

"why you?"

Chunsheng turned his head suddenly, and the watery moonlight poured down on his shoulders, and his handsome face was instantly covered with a layer of soft brilliance by the moonlight.

Seeing this face, Chu Jiu's heart suddenly trembled.

The private plane in his pocket was still buzzing and vibrating.

"It's okay to have dinner and come to the lake to blow some air. Why, are you alone?" Chunsheng's expression was as usual, his eyes were as calm as the surface of a calm lake.

"You... live near here too?" Chu Jiu's throat twitched. Except for Monet's mansion, this lake is an undeveloped area.

"I live in Monet's mansion, and Lao Bao has a house here."

"What a coincidence..." Chu Jiu blinked and took his hand out of his pocket—the vibration of the private plane had obviously slowed down.

"Do you think the moon is very bright?" Chunsheng suddenly turned around and pointed to the moon in the sky.

"Huh?" Chu Jiu was slightly startled, not sure why Chunsheng suddenly got up, he looked up towards the sky along Chunsheng's slender fingers.

The surface of the lake not far away suddenly made an almost inaudible splash, and a burst of ripples slowly spread out. After a while, the surface of the water returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

"It's very bright...it's almost the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, right?" Chu Jiu looked at the water surface, and there was nothing unusual.The private plane in his pocket has also stopped vibrating.

"I heard that this is your hometown?" Chunsheng asked again.

"Yes..." Chu Jiu raised his eyes and looked at him, why did he feel weird today.

"That's right..." Chunsheng raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at Chu Jiu.

"What's wrong?" Chu Jiu looked puzzled, did he take some wrong medicine?

"That poem is right, 'The moon is the brightness of my hometown'...'" Chunsheng looked deep into the lake, deep and far away.

"..." Looking at his tall and steep side face, Chu Jiu suddenly felt dry mouth for no reason, and obviously drank a big pot of herbal tea made by Ms. He before going out...

"Which building of Monet's mansion is Lao Bao's house?" Chu Jiu asked after kicking a stone into the lake.

"Let's think about it...the number eight seems to be written on the house number?" Chunsheng hesitated.

"...Isn't that next door to my house?" Chu Jiu asked in surprise.

"It's not surprising, his house was bought with the help of your elder brother Dong Cang, your house is also the same?"

"That's true..." Chu Jiu nodded, probably Dong Cang wholesaled a row of houses and sold them to relatives and friends, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, why did you and Lao Bao come here all of a sudden?"

"You saw it," Chunsheng said calmly, "Your brother said that he found a good book here, so he came to collect the old bag. I'm fine anyway, so I'll come and take a look... This ancient Jizhou is full of outstanding people, There have been several great Confucians and great scholars in history, so there are a lot of valuable ancient books here..."

"..." Chu Jiu looked at Chun Sheng's star-like eyes, and always felt that he still had reservations about himself.

"Someone is coming over there, are they your parents?" Chu Jiu wanted to ask something, but Chun Sheng suddenly interrupted him.

Chu Jiu looked into the distance, and saw two figures, one tall and one short, slowly walking towards this side, looking at the big shawl worn by the shorter one—who else but He Yunzhi?

"Well, let's talk another day!" Chu Jiu walked away.

"Mom and Dad, are you coming out too?" Chu Jiu's voice came from afar.

Chunsheng looked at Chu Jiu's back and laughed dumbly. Isn't he just meeting his parents?Why is it like a mouse meeting a cat?
