Accidentally Born in the ‘60s: (Catch bugs)
On Sunday, Mingxi and Xie Yanan came with their Lantern Festival bags and small bags, and Mrs. Li welcomed the three of them in with a smile: "It's okay if you come back, you don't need to bring things home, Everything."
Xie Yanan sipped her short, capable hair behind her ears, and took out seven or eight pieces of clothes from a pocket: "I didn't go to work yesterday afternoon, so I went to a few shopping malls and bought them for you and my mother and father Zhen Zhen. A few clothes."
As long as it is a woman, no matter how old or young, when she hears new clothes, she can't move a little bit. Mrs. Li said, "What new clothes are you buying, there is no shortage of them." But her eyes began to look at the pile of clothes. Swipe around to see which one looks like yours.
Xie Yanan smiled and took out two clothes and showed them to Mrs. Li: "I think the color is nice and the material is comfortable to the touch. I think it's suitable for you to wear in summer." She looked at the clothes on Mrs. Li's body. The clothes were obviously frayed and fluffed, and he quickly handed over the new clothes for her to change: "I haven't been to the mall for a while, and I went to see it yesterday. There are many styles and colors in it, but it's not like a few years ago. In that way, all day long except for green, it is blue and gray, and there are no bright colors on the streets.”
"But this is too bright, isn't it?" Mrs. Li was a little embarrassed with the maroon dress in her hand: "I'm almost eighty, can I still wear this?"
"Why can't I wear it." Xie Yanan smiled and pushed her into the canopy bed: "Tan, try it, it will look good."
Mr. Li hesitantly glanced at Zhen Zhen, Zhen Zhen also smiled and nodded: "I think my sister-in-law has a good eye, you can wear this dress to be ten years younger."
As soon as she heard this, Mrs. Li was happy. She put down one side of the tent and put on burgundy clothes and navy blue cropped trousers. She looked down and walked out: "Does it look good?" /
Zhen Zhen and Wang Yanan immediately nodded: "special spirit.
Old Mrs. Li happily looked at the mirror on the cabinet and looked at it again and again, the joy on her face could not be stopped: "Don't say it, it's so good for Yanan to buy this clothes, you say that you're old I can still wear red clothes, but I didn’t expect it.” After taking photos for a long time, Mrs. Li picked up the comb and gathered her hair in front of the mirror. She walked around the room, and she wanted to show off very strongly: "Dongzi, mother, have you finished changing? Come and see if my clothes are okay?"
Wang Sufen pulled her new clothes out, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on her face: "Mother, look at my clothes, there are big lotus flowers on them."
Mr. Li looked at the big flower on Wang Sufen's body and was a little greedy. She pursed her lips and looked at herself in the mirror: "I still think my dark flower is good, and looking at it makes me rich and happy."
"It's not that bad." Wang Sufen is also an old man's idea. He thinks that any color is not as good-looking as red. Although Mrs. Li is not wearing bright red, the color is more suitable for the elderly to wear than red. Look at the spirit. "
Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were very satisfied with their image, and Mrs. Li urged Zhen Zhen who was watching the lively next to her: "Your sister-in-law bought you clothes, why don't you try it."
Zhen Zhen said with a smile: "I'm going to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables right now. I'll get dirty when I wear new clothes. I'll wear them when I go to the bookstore tomorrow." Zi hung Zhen Zhen's dress in the closet: "Tomorrow, when you go out, wear this goose-yellow one, it will keep you fresh."
The women in the house finished changing their clothes before opening the doors and windows. Because Zhen Zhen was there, there were no flies and mosquitoes in the courtyard of Lao Li's house, so the windows were all open at night. .
The Lantern Festival, Shaobing and Dumplings chased each other around the corridor. Excited laughter and shouts echoed in the courtyard. Mrs. Li took the opportunity to discuss with Xie Yanan: "Look, there are still more children. Be more lively, I heard your uncle say that we have too many people now, and said that it may not be allowed to have more births in a year or two, and your Lantern Festival is not too small, when do you want another one?"
Xie Yanan nodded: "I think so too. It just so happened that the project that Mingxi and I were working on ended. We submitted a report early and applied for a break. You know, Mingxi and I are engaged in a relationship. For scientific research, let alone having children in the past few years, I didn’t even have a week. When the Lantern Festival was the busiest time, I returned to the laboratory after three months. Lantern Festival grew up drinking milk powder in the nursery. , now think about it, I really owe this child."
Xie Yanan was a little choked up when she saw the running figure of Lantern Festival: "I've been thinking about it for a few years now. When I have another child, I can't be like Lantern. When can I rest at home for a while and when will I regenerate."
Ms. Li agrees with this point of view very much: "You are right in thinking, otherwise the child will not be well taken care of, and even your body will not be able to bear it."
Wang Sufen looked at Xie Yanan's body shape that had never been fat, and couldn't help but ask, "Did you hurt your body when you were born during the Lantern Festival? How do I think you haven't gained much weight all these years?"
Xie Yanan sighed: "I think it was because I went to work too early, I was a little tired, and I haven't made up for it all these years. I thought about taking advantage of this vacation to find a good doctor to prescribe a prescription. Recuperating and recuperating.”
This idea coincides with the idea of Mrs. Li and Wang Sufen. Mrs. Li immediately said: "You don't have to go out to find a doctor. Soon an old Chinese doctor named Zhang Renze will visit our house and ask him to give You take the pulse."
"Zhang Renze?" Xie Yanan looked at Mrs. Li in surprise: "This is a famous Chinese doctor, and most people can't hire him. How did you know him?"
"Zhen Zhen, please come back." Mrs. Li said with a smile: "Last time, she invited several teachers to come back for dinner. There are painters, old Chinese medicine practitioners and Peking opera singers. They all like our yard. , Zhen Zhen invites them to come and sit down as soon as she is free." Wang Sufen nodded and pointed to the outside and said, "Doctor Zhang's house is very close to our house, and it's just outside the Houyang area. It's hot now, and sometimes he If you don’t have much appetite, come to our yard to pick some vegetables and go back to eat, and have a good relationship with our family.”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the yard shouted: "Is Zhen Zhen at home?"
Mrs. Li was immediately amused: "Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there. It's a coincidence." She walked to the root of the window and shouted at a high voice, "Brother Zhang is here? Come in and sit down. ."
Zhang Renze shook a fan and carried a small medicine box into the house. Wang Sufen called out the biscuits: "Go and tell your aunt that Dr. Zhang is here, and let your mother wash some cucumbers and persimmons."
Ms. Li took out the tea leaves that Li Muwen sent, Zhen Zhen came in with a thermos bottle, took the tea leaves and made a pot of tea, poured a cup for Zhang Renze: "Sir, have some tea."
Zhang Renze took the tea and looked at Zhen Zhen with a smile: "Is it comfortable to stay at home during the holiday?"
"Of course it's comfortable." Zhen Zhen stretched her waist: "Every day reading and painting can be leisurely, Mr. Zhang, you said that I am living in the same bed that Wang Ye's family used to live in, and life is so lazy again. Lazy, is it no different from the ancient ladies?"
Zhang Renze looked at Zhen Zhen and said, "I'm sure you'll be saddened to be as wild as you are."
Old Mrs. Li laughed when she heard it: "You can tell me, this granddaughter of mine can't stay home when she can walk. When I was a child, I knew that I would go out with my brother to play. When you are a few years old, you go up the mountain or go down the river all day long.
Zhang Renze remembered how eccentric Zhen Zhen was when she was a child, and couldn't help but boast: "This kid is wild and smart, or else he can get into the University of God?"
"That's true." Mrs. Li heartily agreed with this sentence, her face almost bursting with laughter.
Zhen Zhen covered her face with her hands and made a coy look: "I'm embarrassed to hear it, but what is it that I'm so happy?" She winked at Mrs. Li and Zhang Renze playfully: " Let the compliments come more violently."
Old lady Li raised her slap and gently landed on Zhen Zhen's arm, she smiled dotingly: "This girl, I'm so used to it."
Zhen Zhen smiled and refilled a cup of tea for Zhang Renze, Zhang Renze looked at Zhen Zhen and Mrs. Li and said, "Actually, this child Zhen Zhen is not only smart, but also not impetuous, I wondered when she would be more diligent with me. Learning Chinese medicine also gave me a successor, but when I said that, she ran faster than a rabbit."
"Actually, it's not that I don't like Chinese medicine, it's just that I can't focus on my mind. The three professional courses in the school occupy all my energy. This medicine has to be by your side, and it is like a day for ten years. Only by studying and drilling can you become an apprentice. Like me, who can only fish for three days and spend two days in the net, this knowledge is wasted. If you want to spread your medical skills, sir, you can go to a medical university to teach."
Zhang Renze heard the words and sighed in disappointment: "You said that too, but it seems that we have no fate as a master and a disciple."
"Who said that." Zhen Zhen immediately sat next to Zhang Renze and raised the tea cup for him diligently: "Mr.'s medicinal food is a must, I especially want to learn how to make medicinal food with you, if you don't dislike me for being stupid Just teach me this."
Zhang Renze looked at Zhen Zhen with a look of anticipation and laughed dumbly: "Do you just like to eat together?"
Zhen Zhen looked at Zhang Renze with bright eyes and nodded happily: "My biggest goal in life is to eat all kinds of food all over the world."
Zhang Renze twitched his cheeks and said helplessly: "Okay, since you like medicinal food, I will teach you. Just in time for your summer vacation, come to my house to learn a dish with me every day."
Zhen Zhen nodded expectantly: "I'll go after dinner tomorrow."
"It's not enough to eat, you have to arrive early." Zhang Renze's expression was quite serious: "Not only are the recipes important, but the raw materials are also very important. You have to choose to learn from me to buy things."
Zhen Zhen hesitated for a while, then silently counted the time: "Then I'll come to see you at seven o'clock?
Zhang Renze nodded: "That's okay, you can also have breakfast at my house by the way."
The two discussed the time, and Zhang Renze's hot sweat subsided. He opened the medicine box, took out the pulse diagnosis and put it on the table: "Old sister, I will give you a Ping An pulse."
"Thank you." Mrs. Li put her arm on the pulse pillow, Zhang Renze touched the pulse on both sides, and said with a smile, "It's pretty good, my body is much stronger than before, as long as I don't stop in the summer. It’s okay to drink hot water if you’re greedy for the cold or see the sky.” Seeing that she didn’t even need to take Chinese medicine, Mrs. Li stood up cheerfully: “Dongzi, motherfucker, let Doctor Zhang take a look too.”
Wang Sufen gave birth to five children, and suffered from backache. According to Dr. Zhang, it was kidney deficiency. Feeling that Wang Sufen's body had improved, Dr. Zhang prescribed another prescription, which was still invigorating the kidney and strengthening the spleen. .
Both of them had finished reading it. Before Mrs. Li could speak, Zhang Renze pointed at Xie Yanan and said, "This is the daughter-in-law of the second child, Mingxi's family. It's the first time I've seen you. I'll give you a pulse."
Xie Yanan couldn't wait to come over and sit down when she heard the words. Mrs. Li and the others only knew that Zhang Renze was an old Chinese medicine doctor who saw a lot of doctors.
Zhen Zhen said about Xie Yanan's situation in advance, and Zhang Renze was also very interested in her, it took more than half an hour to diagnose the pulse, and then after a long deliberation, she prescribed a decoction: "You have been too tired these years. , I didn't have a good rest when I gave birth to a child before, and my kidney water and qi and blood were a little deficient. I'll give you a prescription first, you can take it for ten days, and I'll come back to feel your pulse."
Xie Yanan got up and thanked her, and quickly assured: "I happen to have a two-month recuperation leave, and I will definitely take my medicine on time."
Mr. Li hurriedly said, "Since you're not going to work, come and live here. Zhen Zhen specially packed a room for you, and they also live in Mingnan this month."
Xie Yanan smiled: "If Zhen Zhen doesn't think we're panicking, we'll move in for a month."
Zhen Zhen immediately said: "This house is warm when someone lives there. I wish you would live here forever, and the house would be lively."
Xie Yanan brought her bag with a smile, and took out a stack of money and bills: "It just happened that the salary has not been put down yet, so I will pay for the meal first."
Mr. Li smiled and took out two tickets for the Great Unity: "I still want to go to those, but I don't want more."
Xie Yanan simply put the rest into Wang Sufen's hands: "Mingnan and the others are still going to school, you can give it or not. Mingxi and I have been working for many years, and we have saved a lot at home. We live here. One day, we must pay for one day, otherwise we will not live.”
Wang Sufen looked at Mrs. Li at a loss, and Mrs. Li nodded slowly: "Yanan also made sense, so let's do it like this."
Seeing that their family was in harmony, Zhang Renze stood up enviously: "Okay, it's rare for your family to have a holiday, have a good time, I'll go back first."
Mrs. Li hurriedly kept him for lunch, and Zhang Renze waved his hand and said, "I also invited a friend to my house today as a guest. I'll come back another day."
Mrs. Li knew that Zhang Renze was a sincere person and never said those rude words, so she could only tell him regretfully: "Then when you come back next time, don't ask anyone else, you must eat at home. "
"Okay, old sister." Zhang Renze smiled: "I will be able to learn a few dishes from Zhen Zhen when I get back next time, and then I will let her show me a hand."
Zhen Zhen is quite confident in her own craftsmanship, not to mention, no one has cooked better than her in roasted fish, roasted rabbits, roasted pheasant and so on over the years.
Zhang Renze picked up his medicine box, Zhen Zhen said quickly: "Sir, I framed the letter that Mr. Su gave me last time and hung it up. You can help me see where it is."
"Okay, I'll follow you to see." Zhang Renze smiled very naturally, and followed Zhen Zhen to the west wing. Zhang Renze took out two thick envelopes from the medicine box and handed them to Zhen Zhen, and said in a low voice, "There are two old leaders who are in need of wild ginseng as medicine, and your ginseng can get into their eyes. It's all left."
Zhen Zhen opened the envelope and saw the great unity inside, her hands trembled with excitement: "Why so many? This wild ginseng is too valuable,"
"Because they only asked for money but not for tickets, people gave more money." Zhang Renze looked at Zhen Zhen's look of being a financial fan, and asked her curiously, "You said that you also have a big mansion at a young age, There are a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings at home, and you usually don’t need to pay for your life, so what do you use the money for selling ginseng?”
Zhen Zhen hesitated for a while before saying: "Houses in our country have always been allocated by units. As the population increases, there are not many houses built. Take Beijing as an example, a courtyard house can Living in dozens of households, some families with three generations of young and old squeezed into a hut of 20 to 30 square meters and could not even turn around.”
Zhang Renze was very touched when he heard the words. A hutong not far from his house was such a large courtyard. When the boy was a little older, he began to worry. He didn't even have a separate house. How could he marry a daughter-in-law for his child? .
Zhen Zhen glanced at the look on Zhang Renze's face and said seriously: "The country does not have so much money to solve the housing problem of so many people, and houses must become commodities sooner or later. on some properties.”
Although Zhang Renze understood what Zhen Zhen said, he still didn't quite understand why Zhen Zhen was hoarding so many properties, Zhen Zhen smiled: "Not for the house, but for the land for the house."
Zhang Renze smiled and shook his head: "Although I don't understand it very well, but from what you mean, I know that your plan is more long-term." He looked at Zhen Zhen with admiration in his eyes: "I admire your bravery. If you still have something to sell in the future, just come to me.”
"Okay." Zhen Zhen agreed in a crisp voice, she put the money in the box, and took a bag of Ganoderma lucidum from the inside: "I picked it up on the mountain, I will make it for Mr. wine to drink."
Zhang Renze was also hypocritical, took it over and put it in the medicine box, thinking about the party with his old friend at noon, and hurriedly left after saying goodbye to Zhen Zhen.
Because I will start to learn medicated food with Mr. Zhang tomorrow, Zhen Zhen is thinking about going to the bookstore to buy books, and after talking to Mrs. Li, she is ready to go out.
"What time is it?" Mrs. Li glanced at the big pendulum on the wall, she didn't understand what Zhen Zhen was busy with: "I have dinner in an hour, can you go in the afternoon?"
"I'm eating outside." Zhen Zhen said, "I'll be in the bookstore in the afternoon, and I'll be back in the evening." After hearing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly opened the cabinet to get the money and food stamps, but when they took them out, Zhen Zhen Zhen Zao ran and disappeared.
Standing on the side of the road, a trolleybus came slowly, Zhen Zhen got on the car and walked to the back of the carriage to find a window seat and sat down. The tram just started and stopped again. The handsome young man walked up, he looked into the carriage, and saw Zhen Zhen who was reading a book with her head down, a look of surprise and surprise flashed in her eyes.
He went straight to the back of the carriage and sat down beside Zhen Zhen. Zhen Zhen saw the straight trousers next to her from the corner of her eye, and raised her head subconsciously, just looking at Xi Junjie.
"What a coincidence." Zhen Zhen smiled and pointed out, "Does your family live here too?"
"Yeah." Xi Junjie responded and glanced at the book in Zhen Zhen's hand: "Little reading in the car is not good for your eyes."
Zhen Zhen naturally knows this, but she always feels that it is a waste of time to be in a daze in the car, so no matter where she is, she likes to carry a book with her. After Zhen Zhen put the book in her bag, she looked at Xi Junjie curiously, only to see that the expression on Xi Junjie's face was not as tense as when he was in school, instead there was a bit of joy between his brows, and he couldn't help but smile: "I thought you were always like that."
"What character?" Xi Junjie's eyes stayed on Zhen Zhen's face, his expression was quite serious.
"It's the kind of cold personality that doesn't pay much attention to people." Zhen Zhen smiled: "I heard from many classmates that they were afraid to talk to you."
"Are you sure they're not talking about you?" Xi Junjie looked at Zhen Zhen with a smile on his face: "You usually come to and from get out of class, walk in a hurry, and never pay attention to anyone or anything in the class , I dare say that you don't even recognize all the students in the French class, right?"
Zhen Zhen smirked, the French major took the least courses among the three majors that Zhen Zhen took. Usually, except for the French course, the other courses are mainly self-study, so the students in the class don't talk about it After admitting it all, in fact, she also knew Xi Junjie, mainly because Xi Junjie's good-looking aura is strong, and people can't ignore it if they want to ignore it.
Seeing to see Zhen Zhen's thoughts, Xi Junjie looked at her face with a little teasing: "You don't know me only?"
Zhen Zhen looked at Xi Junjie in shock: "Have you guessed this?" She shook playfully with her braided braid: "Mainly, when Teacher Meng asks questions, she always gives her student number, never her name. I really don't know anyone in French except you."
Xi Junjie coughed lightly, his face slightly red: "I'm so special?"
