Since Su Yue and Fu Shen were going to the home of the person skilled in disguise with Lu Yunting, Fu Shen quickly got out of the car, ran back, explained the situation to Grandma Yang and the others, and specifically told them that he wouldn't be back for lunch.
Grandpa Yang slowly walked out of the house upon hearing the sound. He looked around and asked Grandma Yang with a puzzled expression, "Why did I hear Fu Shen's voice? Where is he?"
Grandma Yang said with a gentle smile, "They've left again."
Grandpa Yang: "What's the matter?"
Grandma Yang: "He said he had something to do with Yueyue and wouldn't be coming home for lunch."
Grandpa Yang looked worried: "Is it convenient for you to eat out instead of coming home for dinner?"
Grandma Yang reassured him, "Don't worry, Fu Shen knows what he's doing."
Lu Yunting led Su Yue and Fu Shen to the front of a house. "This is it."
After saying that, he quickly hid in a secluded spot to the side.
Fu Shen glanced at him, then raised his hand and gently knocked on the door.
Huang San peered through the crack in the door and saw that the person who came was not the same person from yesterday, so he cautiously opened the door.
But just as he was about to ask them why they had come, his eyes caught sight of Lu Yunting hiding to the side.
His expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly reached out to close the door.
Fu Shen reacted quickly, blocking the way with his hand. At the same time, Su Yue said earnestly, "Grandpa, we need your help with something."
Su Yue was secretly puzzled. This old man was really strange. He didn't even let her finish speaking before he was in such a hurry to close the door.
Huang San glanced at Lu Yunting, then shook his head and waved his hands, "I won't help. You guys leave now and don't come looking for me."
Fu Shen keenly noticed the glance Huang San gave Lu Yunting and secretly thought to himself, "It seems the problem lies with him."
He turned his head, looked at Lu Yunting, and blinked, "Weren't you rude to me yesterday?"
Lu Yunting understood Fu Shen's hint, lowered his head slightly, stared at the ground, and said with a hint of helplessness.
“I didn’t say a word yesterday, and the old man just closed the door. How could I be impolite to him? If anyone should be impolite, it’s him.”
He was filled with confusion. Apart from not being good at smiling, he wasn't bad-looking. So why was Huang San willing to talk to Fu Shen and Su Yue when they knocked on the door, but his expression changed instantly when he saw him?
I didn't laugh just now.
Upon hearing Lu Yunting's words, Huang San's face turned red with anger. Pointing at him with trembling fingers, he shouted, "You came to my house yesterday, and as soon as I opened the door, you gave me that mocking look. Is that what you call politeness? If you weren't a soldier, I would have hit you with a broom. I'm an old man who's lived this long and seen all kinds of people."
He is the only one who has mastered his family's ancestral art of disguise, while others have struggled to grasp its essence.
After learning the skills, he set up a street stall to make a living.
Whether the customer wants to have various animal patterns painted on their face or transform themselves into someone else, he can do it, as long as the customer can name it.
However, he usually only draws for children.
Just when he thought he could make a living with this skill, the national situation changed dramatically.
He was reported by others and accused of engaging in feudal superstition. He was also criticized for not allowing animals to become spirits since the founding of the People's Republic of China, yet he painted cats, dogs, and other animals on people's faces.
He was subjected to several days of criticism and struggle sessions and almost lost his life.
After that, his wife, children, daughter-in-law, and grandson all felt ashamed of him and left him one after another.
Since then, being ridiculed has become commonplace for him, which has made him extremely concerned about other people's opinions.
Whenever he meets a stranger, he subconsciously observes whether the other person intends to make fun of him.
If there is an opportunity, he will leave before the other party speaks; if he cannot avoid it, he will not be afraid and may even retaliate directly.
Anyway, he felt that his old life was pretty much over.
