    As soon as Zhen Zhen went to college, she said that she wanted to invite the gentlemen to be guests at her home, but because she was busy with several professional classes, she never had time to invite the gentlemen to their home. Until last week, when Mrs. Li said that the flowers in the garden were blooming well, Zhen Zhen had the idea of ​​relaxing, so she told Mrs. Li in advance that she would invite the gentlemen from the school to come to the house for dinner.

    Mingbei usually doesn't have time to go to Imperial College, so it's a little unbelievable to hear that he can invite his husband: "Have you agreed with the gentlemen in advance? They can't come?"

    "It's settled." Zhen Zhen said with a smile: "Since I went to school, several gentlemen have been helping me a lot, and it is reasonable to invite them to come and sit at home."

    Although Wang Xinwen can't usually have meals and classes with Zhen Zhen, but the two of them upstairs and downstairs also know that Zhen Zhen has studied three majors: "Zhen Zhen taking three major courses at the same time is also a scene in our school. After Zhen Zhen, many students applied, but after the school research, they were still worried that the students would not be able to eat too much, so they were all rejected, Zhen Zhen is the only student in our school who majored in three majors.”

    When Mrs. Li heard the words, she immediately regarded this as the most important thing for her family and made preparations early.

    Since they were coming to the house, Zhen Zhen and Xie Shurang also moved their French class in the morning to the bus. Xie Shurang did not talk to her exactly according to Zhen Zhen's French book, but guided her to familiarize herself with grammar and phrases in the communication, even if she met her. Xie Shurang also explained the words that Zhen Zhen didn't understand in French. Hearing Zhen Zhen frantically pleaded in French: "Say it again! Say it again!"

    Mrs. Li cleaned up the yard long ago, and sprinkled some water in the yard to avoid dust. Zhong Zhenzhen and the others arrived at about nine o'clock. Mrs. Li, who had been waiting at the gate for a long time, saw that her granddaughter brought back Le's eyes narrowed, and hurriedly opened all the doors of the house: "Gentlemen, do it at home." She stretched her voice and shouted again: "Mingbei, come out quickly." Mingbei had been waiting at the door for a long time before he wanted to enter the house for a drink. Before he passed the hanging flower door, he was called back by Mrs. Li.

    "Hello, gentlemen." Mingbei saw a lot of people, so he didn't have time to take a closer look. He said hello from a distance, and when he was in front of him, he looked at the half-white-haired old man at the front, and he couldn't close his mouth in shock: "I said Zhen Zhen, how could you actually invite Mr. Dong Wang me to be a guest at home? It's amazing."

    Hearing the voices, Li Muwu, Wang Sufen, and Wang Xinwen all came out, Zhen Zhen introduced them one by one, and invited people to the main hall for tea.

    There is a set of wenge furniture in the main hall. It was bought from a waste collection station. At that time, this furniture had broken legs and knocked off corners, because it was thrown in the corner and no one wanted it. Zhen Zhen took a close look at the tables and chairs, and found that they were maliciously damaged, and the broken legs could be recovered as broken wood, so she bought them all.

    Li Muwen's orderly helped Zhen Zhen to move everything, Zhen Zhen repaired it all by herself, and restored everything to its original state. Li Muwu thought she nailed it with nails, but in fact, she used her supernatural ability to connect the broken wood together again.

    After Xu Mengguo entered the main hall, he didn't sit down. He crouched on the ground and touched the carvings on the chair, admiring the agate and enamel inlaid on it.

    "Zhen Zhen, where did you get this set of furniture?" Xu Mengguo regretted not bringing out the magnifying glass. As he got older, his eyes became a little flowery, and some of the patterns underneath could not be seen clearly. In front of Zhen Zhen's family He was too embarrassed to lie on the ground.

    "From the waste collection station." Zhen Zhen helped Wang Xinwen to prepare honey water for the teachers and placed them one by one on the table in the middle of the chairs.

    As soon as Xu Mengguo raised his head, he saw two large bowls placed on the delicate square table, and immediately beat his chest and feet with heartache: "Why put this on the bowl, if you sprinkle it, it will be a waste."

    After listening to it, Mrs. Li hurriedly said: "It's okay to sprinkle it, wait for me to pour you another bowl, and drink it while it's hot."

    Xu Mengguo's mouth twitched: "Auntie, I don't feel sorry for the water, I feel sorry for the table."

    Zhen Zhen smiled and explained to Mrs. Li: "This gentleman of mine has passed the appraisal of historical relics, and this table in our house is probably used by the royal family of the Qing Dynasty, so Mr. Xu looked at us using this thing as a rough wooden messenger. , a little distressed."

    Mrs. Li nodded knowingly: "It's fine, just get used to it, I wasn't used to it when I first slept in the king's big bed, but now I feel better, the hard bed is always comfortable to sleep on. Yes." Everyone laughed when they heard this.

    It was the first time that several gentlemen met with their own family, Zhen Zhen was still a little nervous, afraid that they would say anything else, but fortunately, they were all very measured people. The old lady admired her husband, especially the husband in the university, and didn't take out these short words from her parents. Only then did Zhen Zhen breathe a sigh of relief.

    After a short rest, Xu Mengguo finally let go of the chair, and after drinking the honey water in the bowl, he asked Zhen Zhen if she could visit around.

    Seeing that they were going to walk around, Mrs. Li took the opportunity to help Wang Sufen cook, and Mingbei was also sent out to buy some canned food from the supply and marketing cooperative. Zhen Zhen accompanied the gentlemen to visit the house.

    The main room was where Mrs. Li and Li Muwu lived. Zhen Zhen simply said something in the courtyard, instead of going inside, she took them to the west wing instead. ,

    There are three rooms in the west wing. There is no space in between. There is a landscape painting of Su Weiran hanging on the wall as soon as you enter the door. A screen on the west prevents you from seeing what is there. The screen on the east is pushed aside, revealing The most encircling carved bed.

    Zhen Zhen led everyone over and tidied up the bed curtains: "This bed is what we have when we moved in."

    Xu Mengguo clasped his fingers and tapped the wood: "Wenge."

    Zhen Zhen nodded: "Looking at the set of tables in the hall outside, I guessed that the set of chairs was originally from the palace, I don't know how it was vacated, but it was smashed again, I carried it back. It took months to fix it in bits and pieces."

    Xu Mengguo remembered the inconspicuous junctions he saw just now, and looked at Zhen Zhen in surprise: "You repaired it yourself? It's really good. Hey, I said Zhen Zhen, you should change your major, you are born to be For those who study cultural relics, what kind of news do you study, you are blind to this good material."

    Xie Shurang smiled and said, "She's a stubborn piece of material, but as long as she makes up her mind, it's no use what others say."

    Everyone couldn't help laughing when they remembered how Xie Shurang had been frustrated countless times by chasing Zhen Zhen to learn Peking Opera.

    The two boxes next to the bed were made of ordinary mahogany, and they were not antiques, so everyone didn't stop there. When they bypassed the screen and came to the west side of the house, not only Xu Mengguo, but also other people's eyes lit up.

    Zhen Zhen moved the original Duobao Pavilion in the main house to her own house, and on it were placed the cultural relics that she bought after she came to the imperial capital to go to school, because the orderlies beside Li Muwen followed several times, so she also has an argument for the source of these things. , not afraid of not being right.

    The most eye-catching thing on the Duobao Pavilion is the Xuande stove that was collected from the pile of wood. At that time, the outside was full of stains and the original appearance could not be seen. After returning home, Zhen Zhen would wipe it out with a soft cloth. It finally showed its original appearance.

    Seeing Xu Mengguo also staring at her Xuande stove, Zhen Zhen hurriedly picked it up and handed it to Xu Mengguo: "Mr. Xu, look, I found this from a nearby purchasing station before school started. The legendary Xuande furnace, but I have not seen the Xuande furnace, so I can't tell whether it is true or false."

    Xu Mengguo glanced at Zhen Zhen sadly: "I said this as if I had seen it before." He carefully placed the Xuande stove on the table to the side, and looked at it carefully: "The Forbidden City has a collection of Xuande stoves, It's just that I'm not in charge of copperware, and I haven't been able to see it."

    While Xu Mengguo was admiring the Xuande stove, others were admiring other objects on the Duobao Pavilion. The items displayed on it are all acquired after the exercise, and there are not many treasures. Several pieces of porcelain from official kilns are also of the kind that survive in the world, so they are not rare.

    While Xu Mengguo was admiring the antiques, Su Weiran walked to the bookcase and picked a brush from the pen holder. Seeing this, Zhen Zhen hurriedly went to grind and looked at Su Weiran earnestly: "Teacher, are you going to paint another painting? ?"

    Su Weiran looked at Zhen Zhen and was very speechless: "You have how many paintings I have, and you asked me to paint as soon as you met."

    "It's all treasures." Zhen Zhen laughed and said, not feeling embarrassed at all: "When things get better in the future, I'll hold an art exhibition for Mr., full of Mr.'s paintings."

    "You are quite filial." Su Weiran smiled, and then wrote a poem with a pen: "I see that the paintings on the wall are a little monotonous, so I will write a letter for you, but I don't care about the mounting. , you have to do it yourself."

    "No problem." Zhen Zhen happily agreed.

    Xu Mengguo couldn't take a step when he saw the antique, and they even thought about going to the back, so they urged Xu Mengguo to come out. Because there is no one living in the back yard, there is nothing to put on it. Mrs. Li is fine at home, and she often goes to the back to clean up the dust. Every time I think about Zhen Zhen having such a big house that I can't live in, I immediately get full of energy.

    When they arrived at the garden in the backyard, everyone was stunned by its prosperity. Wang Xinwen came to the garden to pick some fresh vegetables and went back. Forgetfulness and Su Weiran immediately grabbed the basin that Wang Xinwen brought, and said cheerfully: "We haven't done this kind of work for two years, little girl, sit there for a while and let's go pick vegetables."

    As soon as Wang Xinwen heard Mr. Forget about calling her a little girl, she immediately sent the basin out in a daze, and sat beside the rockery with her face in her hands.

    Bright red persimmons, fresh green cucumbers, strings of plump beans, curvy and strong eggplants, rows of green vegetables... Su Weiran and the others cultivated their own wasteland in the mountain nest, although it was a little harder. But there is a sense of accomplishment when I eat the food I grow myself. After coming out of the mountain nest, they were all restored to their identities, making up for the wages and benefits they hadn't received over the years. They usually buy food and food with tickets.

    A few people walked around the ground with a basin, picked all the vegetables they liked, and put them in the basin. Since her family came to the capital with her family, Zhen Zhen has never used her supernatural powers to grow vegetables. Before, she helped her family grow food because the yield was low. The land in the mountains was blocked by trees and there was not enough sunshine, so it would not grow very long. exuberant. At the same time, there are a lot of birds and pheasants in the mountains, and they alone can take half of them. Before Zhen Zhen was born, the sorghum and soybeans grown by the old Li family were used as supplements, and they could not collect much at all. What's more, Li Muwu usually had to go to work at that time, and the farming work basically fell on Mrs. Li and Wang Sufen, not to mention Mrs. Li, even Wang Sufen was not too young, Zhen Zhen really couldn't bear to let them do that. heavy work.

    After he came to the imperial capital, Li Muwu was idle, and Mrs. Li and Wang Sufen had nothing to do, so Zhen Zhen simply let them toss, anyway, in her own home, she didn't have to walk too far, she just used to be active. , the province's idle time comes into trouble, Zhenzhen is also ripe, and the taste is slightly improved, like cucumbers, it is more crunchy, foreign persimmons are all sandy, and the juice is sweet.

    After picking a pot full of foreign persimmons and cucumbers, Zhen Zhen drew a bucket of water from the well next to her, rinsed the cucumbers and persimmons in the pot twice, please come and try it.

    After washing their hands by the well, a few people were not afraid of getting dirty on the ground, so they sat directly on the ground and nibbled around a pot of cucumbers and persimmons.

    *********

    Now Zhen Zhen has been staying at Imperial University for five months, she is a very busy person in the literature department. Re-entering the school, and it is one of the top universities in the country. None of the students of Imperial College are slacking off. They can't wait to spend 24 hours on their studies every day. They are either in class or in the library. The dormitory is basically real. is just a place to sleep.

    But compared to Zhen Zhen, the other students are a little ashamed, Zhen Zhen has a strong mental strength, and a short sleep can meet the needs of the body. Therefore, Zhen Zhen turned on the Xueba mode, getting up before dawn every day, and didn't come back until midnight.

    Wei Yujin used to get up early when she was working in the production team, but now she can't sleep even if she is lying in bed. Every morning when she wakes up, it's dark and there's no bright place to read. She saw Zhen Zhen going out early every morning, thinking that Zhen Zhen might have found a place to read, she quickly put on her clothes and went out with a book, but as soon as she left the dormitory, she disappeared.

    Wei Yujin couldn't go upstairs again. Just as she was about to push open the door of the dormitory, she suddenly saw the light on the toilet at the end of the corridor. Her eyes lit up, she went back to the room and quietly moved a small stool and went to the toilet to study.

    It is also easy to have a mentality of comparison in the places where the school bullies gather. If one study is difficult for the other, the toilet will be full within a few days, and a bunch of students will bury their heads and study hard inside with their books in their hands. Fortunately, the restrooms in the dormitory building are cleaned twice a day by the students, and there is no smell. Otherwise, they may not be able to sit still.

    Compared with the hardships of her classmates, Zhen Zhen was much more comfortable, she was sitting on the comfortable sofa in the foreign-style building, with fresh fruit, honey and water on the coffee table, and a fragrant breakfast on the dining table. Zhen Zhen buys a week's worth of breakfast every week when she comes home from home and puts it in the space. It is always hot whenever she eats it, so she doesn't have to worry about spoilage.

    I read the French I learned twice, and I marked out some uncertainties. I will ask the French teacher when I am ready to go to class. After drinking honey water and having breakfast, looking at the weather outside, Zhen Zhen took out the textbook of ecstasy again and taught herself the courses she didn't miss.

    After staying in the space for three hours, it was almost time for class, Zhen Zhen used her consciousness to look at the place first, and then appeared quietly. Wei Yujin occupied a seat for Zhen Zhen ahead of time, and waved quickly when she saw her coming, Zhen Zhen sat in her old seat with the book in her arms, put the book on the table, and greeted her roommates one by one.

    Xu Jiajia, who lived on the upper bunk of Zhen Zhen, came over and asked softly next to Zhen Zhen, "Where are you reading books, old girl? I woke up a little late today and ran out of room for the toilet, so I had to shamelessly grab it. The toilet upstairs."

    Zhen Zhen smiled a little embarrassedly: "I found a place by myself, although there are lights, but the place is too small, one more person can't turn around, I really can't take you there."

    Xu Jiajia believed this. When she went to the toilet upstairs to read this morning, she saw Wang Xinwen sitting in the toilet with her textbook in her arms and being stipulated by the law. If she could bring someone, Zhen Zhen appointed Wang Xinwen to take her there first.

    This morning, Zhen Zhen has two major classes, one is journalism and the second is economics. Although the journalism students have only been studying for a few months, they are already eager to form a news agency and write articles such as school news and current reviews. The professional teacher Song Shihai greatly appreciated this. He taught a lot of relevant professional knowledge in the class. The students in the class could not wait to go to build a news agency after class, so as to give full play to their professional talents.

    Zhen Zhen listened to Wei Yujin and the others having a heated discussion, and was also very interested in the news agency, but with her current time, it was impossible to participate in the whole process.

    There are no other major classes in the journalism department, so after the bell rang, the teachers and students basically didn’t move. Zhang Chenghai, the most active in the class, took the initiative to apply for the position of president, and went to the blackboard to put Everyone's suggestions are written above and discussed item by item.

    Song Shihai watched with interest as they talked about their thoughts. Some of them were not feasible, some would obviously take detours, and some were too naive, but Song Shihai still didn't say anything, only Only when you have the courage to try can you learn more experience, and it is possible to have innovative ideas.

    Zhen Zhen was in a hurry to go to economics and could not continue to participate in the discussion, so she had to talk to her roommate and ran out with her schoolbag on her back. The classmates were used to Li Mingzhen's big class schedule from morning to evening, so they didn't care much, but the boys sitting behind Zhenzhen looked a little disappointed and muttered: "If Li Mingzhen can be our news agency With her image and affinity, she will definitely be able to interview many people.”

    Wei Yujin heard it and turned around and smiled: "With our family's Li Mingzhen's character, even when a reporter is a loner, he won't find any partner."

    Those boys were pierced, their faces were a little embarrassed, one named Liu Chengmin was more courageous, he smiled and discussed with Wei Yujin: "Sister Wei, this news agency is a major event for our class, wait for you. Go back to the dormitory and discuss with classmate Li Mingzhen, let her participate more, and when you need to run a leg, carry a heavy load, etc., we can all help."

    Wei Yujin said, "When I was in the production team, I was able to carry a 200-pound sack."

    Liu Chengmin swallowed his saliva with an embarrassed look on his face, and a boy named Xu Zehai came over and said, "Your arms are thicker than mine, how can classmate Li Mingzhen be like you, she looks weak and unpretentious, we have a lot more Give full play to the friendship and mutual help among your classmates.”

    Xu Jiajia also turned her head and looked at him sympathetically: "Last time we had an arm wrestling match in our dormitory, do you know the result?"

    Liu Chengmin and Xu Zehai looked at each other and didn't quite understand why the topic suddenly jumped here. Seeing the puzzled expressions on their faces, Wei Yujin kindly revealed the answer to them: "I broke arms with Li Mingzhen, I lost."

    Immediately, with Wei Yujin as the center, the people next to him became quiet, and Liu Chengmin beat his chest with heartache: "This is impossible, Li Mingzhen is obviously a goddess who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world."

    Xu Jiajia and Wei Yujin couldn't help laughing. They turned their heads and continued talking about the news agency. Liu Chengmin wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at Xu Zehai a little depressed, and muttered softly, "You can't do this. ."

    Xu Zehai was also a little worried: "When I was chasing my daughter-in-law back then, I just wanted to please the educated youth in the same room as her to help me say good things. If you don't believe me, I will work harder for you."

    Liu Chengmin immediately regained his energy and decided to take the initiative to ask Li Mingzhen what he thought of the news agency, so he guessed that Zhen Zhen left the classroom early when the get out of class was about to end, and came to the economics classroom on the only way to the cafeteria. Sure enough, the hard work paid off. After waiting for about ten minutes, Liu Chengmin saw Zhen Zhen who hurried to the cafeteria, he immediately wiped his hair, tidied up his shirt, and walked over, pretending to be a coincidence: "Hey, Li Mingzhen classmate!"

    Zhen Zhen turned her head and looked at the long and ordinary classmate in front of her who couldn't be found after being thrown into the crowd, she asked with some doubts, "Who are you?"

    Liu Chengmin died!

    Seeing Liu Chengmin's staggering back, which was extremely miserable, Zhen Zhen was also a little embarrassed. There were nearly 200 students in her three major classes. There are hundreds of people who have attended the class together. She really can't remember such a long and ordinary public face. If he looks like a beauty like Xi Junjie, a French major, Zhen Zhen promises that she will recognize him.
