Modern longevity: starting from Baduanjin

Chapter 18 A Sad Story
Zhou Shen opened the bag with full of emotion and looked, and it was exactly what he wanted, San Yunfei.

Pigeons, turtledoves, sparrows.

And they all looked like dragons and tigers, obviously they had just been caught not long ago.

Dogwood hadn't arrived home yet, so he wasn't in a hurry, so he took San Yunfei to the back utility room.

There was a straw cage in which grandma used to raise chickens. He covered the gauze on it, and then put San Yunfei in it.

After closing the door, the phone rang upstairs.

When he went upstairs, he saw that the Apple 11por he bought had arrived.

He bought it on Jingdong and delivered it to his door.

Hang up the phone after clarifying the address with the courier.

Talk to grandma, and then slowly walk towards the intersection east of Xiaozhou Village.

Halfway through the walk, he suddenly thought of one thing. When practicing Daoyin, he often needs to watch diagrams and annotations, but the screen of the laptop is too small, and he needs to buy a larger TV.

Buy it if you say it.

Considering that Jingdong delivered the goods to the door, I still bought it on Jingdong.

I didn't have much entanglement, so I chose Xiaomi TV directly, with a full-screen 75pro+4K ultra-high-definition.

Order two sets, a total of 9000 yuan.

It feels quite cheap.

One for himself and one for grandma.

The TV in grandma’s room is the Changhong TV from many years ago. It is only 42 inches. Not to mention the small size, the picture quality is not as clear as the current high-definition TV.

"Since I bought all the TVs, let's go to the street and upgrade the Internet. The speed is too slow now, only 100M, upgrade to 500M, and then open an Internet TV for grandma!"

Zhou Shen thought to himself.

In addition to the TV, I also bought a futon by the way.

Although sitting on the bed can also practice, but sitting on the futon is obviously more ritualistic.

When they came to the intersection, Jingdong Express also arrived and inspected the goods face to face. After there was no problem, Zhou Shen quickly signed for it.

Then I asked the courier, where are we going now?

The courier said he was going back to the county, so Zhou Shen asked the other party to take him to the entrance of the telecommunications business department in the town, anyway, the other party had to pass through the telecommunications business office.

The courier readily agreed.

"I just bought two TVs in Jingdong, will you give them to me later?"

"Of course……"

Chatting all the way to the town's telecom business hall, the business hall has not yet closed.

Now the telecom business offices in towns and villages are all privately contracted, and now the number portability has started, so the competition with China Mobile Unicom is very fierce, and they are all vying for customers, so the service is good and the price is quite low.

"220 yuan per month, 70 yuan back, it means that you only need to pay 150 yuan, you can enjoy 500M fiber optic network speed, three phone cards, 1000 minutes of calls per month, 60G general traffic, and free Gigabit routers and TV cats."

"Okay, as you said."

Under the enthusiastic promotion of the lady in the business hall, Zhou Shen ordered the set meal.

During the process, the eldest sister asked him to pay attention to the company's Wei signal, and Zhou Shen scanned the code to add it.

Fang Wei’s signal name is her real name: Dai Hongyan.

Zhou Shen said casually: "I have a high school classmate named Dai Hongxia, do you know him? He is also from our town."

Dai Hongyan smiled and said, "My sister is called Dai Hongxia."

Zhou Shen was surprised and said, "Really? She has been admitted to South Normal University."

Dai Hongyan nodded and said, "That's right! She is now teaching English at Fuqian Primary School in the county."

Zhou Shen: "...What a coincidence."

Later in the chat, I learned that this girl whom he had a crush on when he first fell in love, is now married and has children. She not only has a successful career, but also has a happy family.

A sad story.

……

It was already twelve o'clock when I got home.

After lunch, grandma was busy washing pots and pans.

Zhou Shen said: "Grandma, sit down first, I bought you a new mobile phone."

Then he took out the phone case.

The little old lady looked at it and complained without accident: "What kind of mobile phone should I buy? Grandma's mobile phone is good and not broken. It's a waste of money! Where did you buy it? Return it quickly, grandma doesn't want it."

"Oh, grandma..."

Zhou Shen stepped forward and put his arms around grandma's neck and acted like a baby.

The little old lady was quickly defeated by his gentle offensive and raised her hands in surrender.

But when Zhou Shen unpacked the box and took out the brand new Apple 11por, the little old lady recognized it immediately, "Is this your iPhone 11? It's very expensive. How much did you pay for it?"

She goes to the street to sell vegetables every day, and contacts so many people every day, how could she not recognize her, and really treat her as a fool?
Zhou Shen didn't expect the little old lady to recognize her, so he could only continue to deal with her with rogue methods, "Oh, don't care how much you paid for it, just use it. If you don't want it, I won't eat the rice you cook in the future .”

As he said that, he put down his cell phone and shook the little old lady's neck again.

"Okay, okay...don't shake it, the tits are fainted by you."

After Zhou Shen let go, the little old lady naturally complained sweetly again, but finally accepted the phone.

Then Zhou Shen began to install the card, turn it on, set it up, and transfer data.

After finishing it, I began to take the trouble to teach grandma how to use the mobile phone.

The operation of Android system and iOS system is somewhat different, and people who are just starting to use it will not be used to it.

Zhou Shen taught grandma tirelessly.

After all, the little old lady is more than 70 years old. In addition to working all year round, the skin of her hands is very rough, and the joints of her fingers are thick. When using electronic digital products, she is not as flexible as young people, and she looks "clumsy".

The little old lady felt ashamed herself, and said: "Grandma is so stupid, go get busy, and grandma will study slowly at night."

"It's okay, grandma, I'm not in a hurry, neither one is born with it! And this system is different from your mobile phone, and it will be a little uncomfortable at first."

Zhou Shen kept calming the little old lady's emotions, and at the same time taught her to use various functions without haste.

A passage I once read came to mind.

Why is it that children are forgiven for urinating in their pants, but the elderly are often blamed?
Because their parents are gone.

……

After Zhou Shen taught it tirelessly for more than half an hour, it didn't end until grandma was able to use it proficiently.

Then Zhou Shen went upstairs to take a lunch break.

And the little old lady went to wash the pots and pans in a happy mood.

The mobile phone is not important, what is important is that the grandson is willing to spend time and energy with her, so that she feels that the pain of this grandson is not in vain.

After washing the pots and pans, a few old ladies from the same village made an appointment to go out for a walk.

A group of people came to the area where the five-guarantee households lived in the west.

In addition to a group of old men squatting at the sun, there are also many old ladies gathered here to chat and chat.

The old people chatting together is nothing more than the family's ignorance, and by the way, talking about the life and work of the children.

The filial praise of the sons and daughters makes others envious.

Disobedient sons and daughters also complain and let others comfort and enlighten them.

In the past, Grandma Zhou Shen always played the role of an audience. Her son, wife, and wife have passed away. Although her grandson is obedient and sensible, he is in poor health and recuperating at home, so there is nothing worth talking about.

While chatting, suddenly the phone in her pocket rang.

Apple's classic vintage phone ringtone.

The phone rang for a long time. After being reminded by the people next to her, Grandma Zhou Shen realized that it was her phone ringing.

The old phone she had been using before had a ringtone of [Moonlight in the Lotus Pond], but she was not used to the sudden change of the ringtone.

I took out my mobile phone and saw that it was a relative from my natal family.

Called to ask about something, Grandma Zhou Shen chatted with the other party for a few words, and then hung up the phone.

Turning around, everyone around her was staring at her.

"Yo, Xiu'e, you are in fashion now, have you started using an iPhone?"

"Is Zhou Shen eliminated for your use?"

"How many apples do you have?"

Grandma Zhou Shen quickly stuffed her phone into her pocket and said with a smile, "It's 11."

"Ah, I heard that Apple 11 will cost tens of thousands of dollars?"

"It can't be fake, can it?"

Another old lady not far away said, "It must be fake. She is 70 or [-] years old, so it would be a waste for her to use a good mobile phone."

The person next to him echoed: "I also use the Huawei that my daughter eliminated, which is easier to use than the Xiaomi I bought before."

"Hey, young people are in fashion nowadays, and a mobile phone costs tens of thousands of yuan. I don't know what's so good about it? We used to live without mobile phones..."

The little old lady was secretly happy listening to a group of old neighbors talking about you, saying that the grapes were sour because they couldn't eat grapes there.

……

After Zhou Shen woke up, it was already 02:30 in the afternoon.

After drinking a cup of honey tea, I opened the attribute panel and looked at it. The attribute point has increased by 0.2, which is a little more than before.

In the past, it could only increase by 0.1 points every time after lunch, and the remaining 0.1 points need to be stimulated by practicing the longevity formula.

And now he hasn't practiced yet, so he is directly inspired.

None of the other attributes changed.

Then he practiced the vertical Baduanjin twice, and brushed his proficiency to: 1/200 of Xiao Cheng.

When Baduanjin was upgraded from [Beginner] to [Xiaocheng], other attributes have changed.

Lifespan increased by 10 days, physical strength and energy each increased by 0.1, and at the same time, in the process of practicing Baduanjin, the attribute points were stimulated, and the previous attribute points of 0.2 became 0.3.

Zhou Shen then added 0.3 attribute points to the formula of longevity.

The proficiency of Longevity Art changed from 121/200 to 151/200 all of a sudden.

Physical strength and energy each increased by 0.1, while life expectancy increased by 22 days to 237 days.

Even the internal strength in the body, or the concentration of [Qi] has also increased.

This is an interactive process.

The formula of longevity is not as simple as a simple health-preserving skill, but a real [Qi training technique].

Zhou Shen looked at his life span, which had increased by a bit, and took a few deep breaths.

After calming down the slightly excited mood, he sat on the bed and began to practice [Longevity Jue Daoyin].
