I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 444 Eat without saying a word
To be honest, now the deaf old lady has given up everything and is not afraid of anything. She was just afraid of suffering.

Why isn't she afraid of Ling Li? Because she had no choice, even if she endured hardships, she had nothing new to say when Ling Li asked her, so she could only stand firm, but she was handed over to that department.

After all, there are a lot of things involved, so it is inevitable that you will have to endure some hardships. She is so skinny and old, she can't stand even a single move. It's okay if I just give her a break, because I'm afraid it won't be possible to make her feel better.

Now after hearing Ling Li's words, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She gritted her teeth and finally said to Ling Li: "My old lady is not a person who appreciates kindness without repaying it. I have to pay attention to your kindness and righteousness to me. Forget it, I will tell you the last thing I know. When this prescription was stolen from the palace, it was a partnership between two eunuchs. One of them was responsible for purchasing medicine and the other was responsible for purchasing drinks. , the pharmaceutical one fell into my hands, and the person who purchased the drinks didn’t know if he still had anything in his hand. Because of the chaos at that time, there was no specific explanation, so I didn’t know. Too clear."

Ling Li's eyes lit up and he murmured: "The person in charge of drinks. And the person in charge of purchasing medicinal materials. What problems could there be here?"

After thinking for four or five minutes, Ling Li shook his head, looked at the deaf old lady, and said with a smile on his face: "That's right. I won't be in a hurry as I think about it slowly. If you think about it again one day, Something new has come up, please tell me as soon as possible.”

The deaf old lady said quickly: "It's really gone this time. I'm afraid you don't know that it was an accident that I got the prescription. It fell into my hands by accident. At that time, people were panicked during the war, and everyone was trying to find a way to escape. . It was under such circumstances that this medicine fell into my hands by chance. I didn't care much about a bad prescription. There are so many folklores, who knew that this prescription must be valuable and valuable? If I hadn't seen the prescription later and thought about it, it turned out that someone in my house had been taking this medicine, and it was very effective. I felt the same way, so I took it seriously. Later, I confirmed that this prescription was indeed the medicine that Foley had been using. Take him seriously."

Ling Li said "Oh" very interested, and then asked: "The medicine you take in your house has always been an incomplete version, or is it a real patent medicine?"

The deaf old lady said: "It's the kind I made for you. It's always been this way. I've never eaten anything else. Anyway, I've never seen it, and I've never heard him mention it."

Ling Li sighed, then thought about it and asked the deaf old lady: "What are the arrangements in Xiangjiang? Do you want to come back and be with you or..."

"If you can, don't let him come back. You also know that he is not clean and it will be difficult for him to come back. Otherwise, just look at it."

Ling Li laughed loudly: "You are such a kind mother. You, please go back to your courtyard first. Whenever you think of something, tell me as soon as possible. You can also tell me about the other things. Don't worry. Besides, you'd better be honest and don't get involved in those messy things. I don't care what you did before. Have you ever done anything sad or unreasonable? From now on, just treat yourself as you are. Go, old woman. You only have one mission now, try to remember things that are useful to me, maybe life will be easier in Xiangjiang."

……

In order to bring her cousin Lin Na into real contact with the lives of the Chinese people, Thea tried her best to change her dull attitude and views towards this country, so she would take her to Song Wu's house as a guest when she had time.

The effect was very good, Lin Na changed quickly. She couldn't help but said to Thea in admiration: "God, there is such food. That cook named Qin Huairu is really amazing."

Thea asked Lin Na with a smile: "Do you still think that people here don't have enough to eat or clothing to keep warm?"

Lin Na thought for a while, then shook her head and nodded. Thea was very surprised and couldn't figure out what her answer was?
Then I heard Lin Na say: "I think your friend Song Wu's family should belong to a relatively wealthy family, because I have carefully observed their neighbors in the same courtyard. Although it is not as bad as what I heard, it is better than Song Wu's." Wu’s life is much worse.”

Thea was surprised. She didn't expect that her cousin, who had always been careless in her impression, would become so observant and careful. It was incredible. She couldn't help but wonder, what could change Lin Na's thick and thick personality?
Lin Na is also very popular in Song Wu's family. Even several children like her very much, because this aunt named Lin Na has a very cheerful personality and loves to laugh, and she especially likes to tell many interesting stories.

In addition to children, other people's impression of Lin Na is that she is particularly talkative. Full of curiosity. He always likes to pester everyone to talk about interesting things around him.

She always likes to say, "Oh my gosh, you guys are so busy here. Everyone's story is so fascinating."

When chatting with Gao E, she would inquire in detail about his work at the grain station. Gao E once said to Song Wu with a smile: "When ordinary people hear that I work at the grain station, they always ask me whether they can get the grain this month on time, how much coarse grain and fine grain are left, and how to mix it. But I am still the first to ask." Once I heard that someone was so interested in my work, she kept asking about it from the time I went to work in the morning to the time I got off work in the evening, and sometimes even worked the night shift. "

Also feeling the same way are He Yuyu and Huizhen.

Of course, among the lesbians, Lin Na liked to chat with He Yuyu the most, wanting to know what their working conditions were like on the street.

After arriving today, I happened to meet He Yuyu who looked exhausted after a busy day. She took the trouble to inquire about the working conditions of the street. When she heard that He Yuyu was busy with the grand parade, she kept asking curious questions. She was even interested in what clothes to wear, how to dance, how to choreograph each move and who designed it.

Until it was almost dark, Sun Yuying came. He Yuyu, who had long been asked about the pain in his head by Lin Na, saw Sun Yuying as if he were seeing the Guanyin Bodhisattva who was rescuing people from suffering. She said to Lin Na with a face of joy: "If you want to know about the parade, ask her. She is older than me and is the district chief. I am just a clerk in the street office. They are all doing practical work. Do you know?" many."

Sure enough, He Yuyu's move was very effective. Lin Na's attention suddenly shifted to Sun Yuying. She looked at Sun Yuying in surprise and said exaggeratedly: "Oh my God, you are so young. You are so big for such a young person." Official? It’s incredible.”

It happened that Qin Huairu had finished cooking and was putting it on the table. After hearing Lin Na's words, everyone looked at Sun Yuying.

Everyone couldn't help but think that Sun Yuying really seemed to be much younger than when she was first transferred to the street office. We were all familiar with each other, so we didn't pay much attention to it, so Lin Na came to see what was going on.

However, several women in this room are already accustomed to things like this, because there are many examples, and everyone is like this.

So after a few people glanced at Sun Yuying and were slightly surprised, they quickly went about their business as if nothing had happened.

Only Lin Na seemed to be more interested in Sun Yuying, and she pulled her into a friendly conversation.

As soon as Sun Yuying came in, she suddenly saw two blonde girls and was stunned. She only knew Thea, Lin Na had never met her. Later, Thea introduced her that Lin Na was her cousin who had just come to China and was an international student at Beijing University.

"She has a question mark on her forehead now. She is interested in everything in China. She asks everyone here and there without getting tired of it. So, let me say hello to you in advance, and she will pester you endlessly. Yes, if you are impatient, it is best to reject her from the beginning."

Thea smiled and greeted Sun Yuying in advance, fearing that her cousin Lin Na would be abrupt.

Sun Yuying smiled and said: "It just so happens that I can also learn more about your country from him. It just so happens that we can gain something from each other."

Only after she was really entangled by Lin Na did she realize how powerful this girl was.

She couldn't help but wonder, is this girl planning to write a book? For example, "360 Lines of China". Otherwise, why would she be so curious and ask such detailed questions.

It was Song Wu who was a little impatient when he saw Sun Yuying, but he had to put on a cheerful face and take care of the foreign guests, and rescued her in time.

"Lin Na, put your curiosity away now. Now you need to open up your more magical stomach. The meal is ready. Today there are dishes you haven't eaten before. I hope it can satisfy your taste buds, which are always hungry and thirsty."

Lin Na was amused and giggled. Of course, her attention was naturally drawn to the food on the dining table.

Then when everyone sat down and took the bowls and chopsticks, Song Wu suddenly said: "Today I want to introduce our traditional Chinese culture to Miss Lin."

Lin Na, who was holding chopsticks and staring at the dishes on the table with her eyes rolling around, looked at Song Wu excitedly after hearing this and asked, "Really? What traditional Chinese culture do you want to tell me?"

Song Wu said seriously: "There is a very important article in our traditional Chinese culture, six words, called, "Eat without talking, sleep without talking." ""

Song Xiaofeng raised his hands and waved around: "What do you mean, Dad?"

Song Wu felt that his son was good and a good person to admire. Someone needed to ask this question at this time.

He smiled and nodded and said: "To put it simply, don't talk when eating or sleeping. This is a very precious etiquette and life experience in our traditional Chinese culture. Lin Na, do you understand? If you understand If so, today we will practice these six words and have a good understanding of Chinese traditional culture. In order to avoid you not being able to understand six words at once, let’s understand three first, starting from eating without speaking. "
