Heart with glazed tiles

Chapter 25

"Liuli, where have you been? I'm with my friend, I'm going to find you now!" Thinking of the first time Chu Liuli faced the sandstorm in the Gobi Northwest, Pan Rongxuan was very worried.

"The navigation shows that there are still more than ten kilometers. You don't need to use it. The wind and sand are much smaller. Maybe I will be able to see the road ahead soon." Chu Liuli stopped.

"Liuli, keep the distance between cars and don't drive too fast. Call me immediately if you have anything to do, we'll wait for you at the intersection! Tell me your license plate number!" Hearing what she said, Pan Rongxuan became much less worried. , did not insist on looking for her.

Chu Liuli agreed, told him the license plate number, and said that he would be careful, so that he could rest assured.

Wu Yongzhao listened to them and guessed eight or nine points.He just thought that his apprentice already had a boyfriend, so he didn't say anything.

After hanging up the phone, Chu Liuli continued to focus on driving, the outline of the vehicle in front became clearer and clearer, and the dust was obviously getting smaller and smaller.She breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense legs also relaxed.

Along the way, the dust gradually dissipated, Chu Liuli speeded up a little, and the distance to the intersection was getting closer and closer. She had more expectations because Pan Rongxuan was waiting for her.

In the off-road vehicle at the intersection, Pan Rongxuan sat in the co-pilot's seat, looking ahead intently.Based on the time calculation, he expected that Chu Liuli would be here soon, but he didn't dare to call her again for fear of affecting her driving.

"Rong Xuan, do you like her?" Sitting next to Pan Rongxuan, Qiao Yu, his friend in County C Hospital, asked.

Pan Rongxuan smiled bitterly and did not answer his question, but from his performance, Qiao Yu had already got the answer.

After being silent for a while, Qiao Yu looked at the front of the car and said with a sad expression: "When I was in college, I also had a girl I liked. She was very beautiful, and her academic performance was good. Later, she was admitted to graduate school and went to the capital. Medical University. And I just liked her silently, and never had the courage to confess. Last year, she took her husband to the class reunion."

Qiao Yu paused, turned to look at Pan Rongxuan, and persuaded: "Rong Xuan, if you like her, you must let her know, even if she refuses."

Pan Rongxuan didn't look at him, and said with some helplessness: "She already has a boyfriend, I can't destroy them, should I be a third party?"

Qiao Yu was left speechless by his rhetorical question, he didn't expect this to be the case.Fearing that Pan Rongxuan would be upset, Qiao Yu quickly changed the subject.

Ten minutes later, the black off-road vehicle Chu Liuli was driving finally appeared within their field of vision.

"Liuli is back, she drove that car!" Pan Rongxuan couldn't see the people in the cab clearly, but he saw the license plate number.

"Liuli!" Pan Rongxuan pushed the door out and waved in Chu Liuli's direction.

Chu Liuli finally returned safely.The car stopped on the side of the road, and Pan Rongxuan and Qiao Yu went forward together.

"Liu Li, you scared us!" Pan Rongxuan's "we" caused Qiao Yu to roll his eyes.

Qiao Yu thought to herself, you were frightened, okay?I don't know Chu Liuli, so how could I worry about her.

Chu Liuli looked at the two of them, pointed at the car behind her and said with a smile, "I'm fine! But I'm afraid this car needs to be washed properly!"

They followed their eyes and saw that the black car had been dyed khaki by the wind and sand.

"Chu Liuli, you don't know how much our Doctor Pan is worried about you. If he had wings, he could fly over to find you!" Qiao Yu couldn't hold back after all, and still wanted to say something for his friend.

"Liuli and I are friends, so of course I'm worried about him. It's not as exaggerated as you said." Pan Rongxuan said embarrassedly.

After finishing speaking, Pan Rongxuan quickly changed the subject and introduced Qiao Yu to Chu Liuli.Chu Liuli also introduced Wu Yongzhao to them.

Knowing that Wu Yongzhao was an expert in building the Forbidden City, Qiao Yu admired him very much and said many words of praise.Several people chatted very happily.

Because the car was rented, Chu Liuli asked Pan Rongxuan and Qiao Yu to take Master back to the hotel, and she returned the car by herself.Pan Rongxuan thought that she was exhausted all the way, and worried that she was alone, so he gave Qiao Yu the task of taking Wu Yongzhao back to the hotel.Chu Liuli did not refuse.

Pan Rongxuan took the initiative to be the driver, and Chu Liuli sat in the co-pilot's seat, and fell asleep on the back of the chair not long after.Pan Rongxuan covered her with his clothes, slowed down the car, and let her sleep more comfortably.After returning the car, Pan Rongxuan took Chu Liuli back to the hotel and left with Qiao Yu.

The next day, Wu Yongzhao and Chu Liuli, who had completed the task, were preparing to return to Beijing. Pan Rongxuan still had something to do and had to stay at the hospital in County C and return to Beijing in a few days.Before Chu Liuli and Wu Yongzhao left, he went to the airport to see them off.

Seeing Chu Liuli walk to the security checkpoint and wave to him, Pan Rongxuan felt his chest being torn apart.He couldn't bear her, and she didn't belong to him, so he didn't have the right to let her stay.

"Doctor Pan is such a good boy, no wonder your dad always praises him. However, Xiao Zhang is also good. You have a boyfriend and good friends to protect you. Master is very relieved." After passing the security check, Wu Yongzhao said.

Chu Liuli laughed with a "puchi" and retorted: "Master, you underestimate me too much. Do I need someone to protect me? Who will protect who is not sure!"

Wu Yongzhao glared at her and said, "You girl, you know how to be brave. I heard from your father that you still want to practice Taekwondo?"

"Master, I really want to go, but I really don't have time. Wait until the weekend, and I'll enroll in a taekwondo class. Then no one will dare to bully me, maybe I can still protect Master!" Chu Liuli clenched his fist and said.

Wu Yongzhao was amused by her and said nothing more.

After returning to the capital, the master and apprentice began to be busy again.On the scaffolding of the main hall, Wu Yongzhao showed Chu Liuli and several other apprentices the drawing.Spread the rice paper on the large wooden components, spray the paper wet, and then pat the surface with a brush, the pattern at the bottom emerges faintly, and then pat it with an ink bag, so that the pattern is printed on the rice paper... The movement is done in one go, like flowing clouds and flowing water.

Chu Liuli looked at it seriously.When she was young, she and her father learned the basics of color painting, entered the Restoration Skill Center, and worshiped Wu Yongzhao as a teacher.It can be said that she is very proficient in the whole process of starting and binding scores, but this repair project is actual combat, so she can't help but feel a little nervous.

After the exhibition was completed, Wu Yongzhao said earnestly to several apprentices: "The purpose of repairing ancient architectural paintings is to become a miscellaneous expert. We need to go through field surveys, consult historical materials, design restoration plans, find ores, grind pigments, and paint layers. There are more than 20 processes, and sample extension is a very important process, the purpose is to grasp the original historical information. No matter which process, we must not be sloppy."

"Yes, Master!" Chu Liuli and the others agreed in unison.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you guys. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me." Wu Yongzhao said happily.

For this project, he not only had to complete the part of the repairs he was responsible for with quality and quantity, but also let several of his apprentices improve through actual combat.After all, he is already in his 50s, and he will retire in a few years.The future belongs to young people like them.The renovation of the Forbidden City depends on them, and the inheritance of the construction skills of official ancient buildings also depends on them.

Chu Liuli and her senior brothers and sisters were busy all morning, and around noon, she received a call from Zhang Yifeng.He told her that he came back from a business trip and that he could have dinner together in the evening.

The voices around him were very noisy, faintly, she seemed to hear a girl calling him.
