Let Me Draw a Card In the Infinite World - Chapter 93

After hearing this, the three hurried to the house.

The small two-story building in the yard is spacious and beautifully built. The retro furniture and furnishings in the living room on the first floor look very textured, fresh and elegant, and full of antiques.

Fu Xiangxiang boasted, “Master Li, your little yard looks really good.”

Li Yongnian couldn’t see emotions on his calm and unwavering face, so he just snorted coldly.

Li Yongnian took the three of them to visit the small building briefly.

The first floor is mainly the living room, kitchen and Li Yongnian’s studio.

In the center of the studio, there are several spacious countertops, on which are arranged several jujube boards, which are used to carve leather.

On the large shelf on one side of the countertop is a pile of processed leathers, and on the shelf on the other side are neatly arranged various utensils such as push plates, oil juice, carving knives, and color paints.

Zhang Yifan was so excited that his eyes lit up, and he cried out in surprise, “Master Li, you are too professional! I really want to own such a studio too!”

Li Yongnian has long been immune to his rainbow fart, and only added: “The dehydrated and sweaty place is in the backyard firewood room. I will show you tomorrow.”

Zhang Yifan nodded again and again: “Okay, okay! So you are still using the old method to get dehydrated. I said, how can you make the shadow puppets so meticulous? I learned it!”

Li Yongnian took them to the second floor again, and pointed his finger casually: “These guest rooms are all vacant, you can live in as you like.”

Fu Xiangxiang glanced briefly. There were a total of six rooms on the second floor with complete facilities, and they all seemed to have just been cleaned up. The sheets and bedding were all clean.

The three were very satisfied and thanked them all.

“It’s just—” Coming down from the second floor, Fu Xiangxiang couldn’t help asking: “Will it be inconvenient for you to live in such a big house alone?”

There are so many rooms upstairs and downstairs, plus the flowers and trees in the front yard and the vegetable garden in the back yard. Li Yongnian is an old man who lives alone. Is it really okay to take care of it?

Also, an old man lives alone in the mountains, and if something happens, there is no one to take care of him.

Looking at this posture, Old Man Li is not like a poor man, why didn’t he hire two people to take care of him?

Li Yongnian looked at Fu Xiangxiang, ignored her full of doubts, and only replied briefly: “It’s okay.”

At this moment, Zhang Yifan was already attracted by the few shadow puppets hanging on the wall of the living room. He stared intently for a long time, and his mouth was amazed: “God, Master Li, your skill is so superb. I have seen this shadow puppet. The most exquisite, so lifelike! I really want to start learning from you right away!”

Li Yongyoung coughed and pointed out the window: “It’s not too early today. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

The elderly sleep early, and their physical strength is not as good as that of the young. The three of them looked at the already dark sky outside the window, a little embarrassed, and quickly responded: “Okay, okay, I’ll talk about it tomorrow.”

Li Yongnian responded indifferently, and then asked, “Have you eaten yet?”

Zhang Yifan was a little embarrassed: “After sitting in the car for several hours and climbing the mountain for a long time, I haven’t even cared about eating.”

Li Yongnian: “Just so, I haven’t eaten it yet.”

Fu Xiangxiang blinked: Unexpectedly, Li Yongnian looked cold, and the people were quite nice. Not only did he prepare comfortable guest rooms, but also entertain them for dinner.

Just listen to Li Yongnian looking at Zhang Yifan and Wang Peng and say: “Then you two go cook, the kitchen is over there, and you have all the ingredients.”

Zhang Yifan opened his mouth: “Do… cook?”

Li Yongnian frowned: “What, do you still want me to cook for you?”

Zhang Yifan hurriedly waved his hand: “No, no, no, no matter where I can trouble Master, this is what the apprentices should do.” He took Wang Peng’s arm and walked towards the kitchen.

Li Yongnian just snorted and listened to the radio leisurely on the recliner in front of the window.

As a reporter, Fu Xiangxiang didn’t need to cook. He wanted to take the opportunity to ask a few more questions, but Master Li over there had already closed his eyes. He obviously looked like he didn’t want to say more. The sleeves walked towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Zhang Yifan and Wang Peng are cooking. To be precise, it was Wang Peng who was cooking, and Zhang Yifan was talking next to him.

Seeing her coming, Zhang Yifan happily leaned over: “Miss Fu, you can also cook?”

Fu Xiangxiang spread his hands: “No.”

He glanced at Wang Peng who was busy and alive: “Then what, I just come over and cheer for Wang Peng!”

Zhang Yifan: “…Ah this, I’m already doing this job!”

Fu Xiangxiang laughed: “Then go on!”

Zhang Yifan suddenly became interested: “By the way, Miss Fu, neither of us can cook anyway. How about going to the backyard to see?”

Fu Xiangxiang blinked, “What do you want to see?”

Zhang Yifan scratched the back of his head: “I want to see Master Li’s wood house. You don’t know. The most important step in making shadow puppets is to remove the moisture in the leather so that the shadow puppetry can be preserved for a long time. It can be soaked in and eaten into the skin.”

Fu Xiangxiang’s interview book contains some relevant information, so she nodded: “I’ve heard that this step is called dehydration and sweating, isn’t it?”

Zhang Yifan gave her a thumbs up: “Miss Fu turned out to be an expert too. So I wanted to take a look at the wood shed. Should we go together?”

When Wang Peng, who was cutting cucumbers, heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Zhang Yifan.

Fu Xiangxiang hesitated and did not nod.

If this was the previous task, she would gladly agree to follow Zhang Yifan around. After all, in the previous task, completing the plot progress is the first task. Where can there be progress without much exploration?

But the task now is different. Her only task is to stay in this world for three days, so the best way is to avoid trouble and death.

Fu Xiangxiang shook his head: “No. The firewood room is there, so I won’t run away? Why don’t we wait for tomorrow daytime and let Master Li take us to take a look.”

Zhang Yifan didn’t expect that she would refuse. She was a little disappointed. He wanted to persuade him a few more words. Fu Xiangxiang smiled at him: “Moreover, I have to take some photos. The light is not good at the moment and I can’t take pictures. Tomorrow is more suitable.”

Zhang Yifan responded and proposed again: “Then let’s go back to the living room and take a look at the shadow puppets. I think they are so attractive!”

Fu Xiangxiang glanced at him more, thought about it, and nodded: “Okay!”

So Zhang Yifan took Fu Xiangxiang back to the living room, carefully observed the few shadow puppets hanging on the wall, while carefully commenting, and did not forget to ask Fu Xiangxiang not to forget to take photos of them all tomorrow.

Li Yongnian, who was closing his eyes and rested, raised his eyelids and looked at them, then closed his eyelids and ignored them.

Fu Xiangxiang is not an insider. He stared at the shadow puppets for a long time and couldn’t see any doorways, so he could only agree with a few words perfunctorily.

At this time, there was movement at the gate of the courtyard, and a man walked in with the sound of opening the door and a sound of footsteps. The visitor is in his early thirties, wearing a black suit, tall and burly, and his facial features look a bit similar to Li Yongnian.

Seeing Fu Xiangxiang and Zhang Yifan, the man frowned in surprise: “Dad, who are they? What are they doing here?”

It seemed that this man was the rich son of the legendary Master Li. Fu Xiangxiang quickly took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over to show his identity.

Seeing that Fu Xiangxiang was a reporter, the man didn’t say much, but simply nodded at her: “Hello, reporter Fu, my name is Li Zhiqiang.”

Zhang Yifan properly explained that he was Master Li’s apprentice.

“Apprentice?” Li Zhiqiang looked even more surprised, and looked at Li Yongnian with some dissatisfaction: “You want to teach him?”

Li Yongnian slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the man: “Not a serious apprentice, just follow me to learn something.”

Li Zhiqiang frowned and snorted coldly: “It’s best to be like this!”

Li Yongnian sat up halfway from the recliner and looked up at him: “It’s so late, why are you here?”

Li Zhiqiang scratched his head and glanced over Fu Xiangxiang and Zhang Yifan: “You are my dad, this is my home, do I need a reason to go back to my own home?”

Li Yongnian glanced at him, slowly leaning back on the reclining chair, closing his eyes and regaining his senses, leaving the three people in the living room with different moods staring at them.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long for Wang Peng to walk out of the kitchen: “It’s time to eat!”
