On Sunday, Mingxi and Xie Yanan came with their Lantern Festival bags in large and small bags, and Mrs. Li welcomed the three of them in with a smile: "It's alright if you come back, you don't need to bring anything to the house, there is everything in the house. ."

Xie Yanan slid her short and capable hair behind her ear, 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 some clothes for you and my mother and father Zhen Zhen. ."

As long as it's 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's no shortage of them." But her eyes began to sweep over the pile of clothes. Go and see which one is yours.

Xie Yanan smiled and took out two clothes from inside to show 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 Mrs. Li. The fluffed clothes, he hurriedly handed over the new clothes for her to change: "I haven't been to the mall for a while. I went to see it yesterday. There are many styles and colors in it, but it's not like a few years ago. In addition to green, the sky 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 you wear it." Xie Yanan smiled and pushed her into the canopy bed: "Nanny, try it, make sure it looks good."

Mrs. Li glanced at Zhen Zhen hesitantly, 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 nodded in succession: "Extraordinary spirit.

Mrs. Li cheerfully looked at the mirror on the cabinet, and 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 I'm old when I'm old. I didn't expect to be able to wear red clothes." 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, feeling very strong to show off: "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 the big lotus flowers on my clothes."

Madam 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, and people look at it. Spirit. "

Both the mother-in-law and the 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 smiled and said, "I'm going to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables right now. I'll get dirty when wearing new clothes. I'll wear them when I go to the bookstore tomorrow." After hearing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly took out the clothes to hold Zhen up. Zhen's dress hangs in the closet: "Tomorrow, when you go out, wear this goose-yellow one to keep it fresh."

After the women in the house finished changing their clothes, they opened 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.

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, this child is more lively, I heard your uncle say that we have too many people now, and he said that we may not allow 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 thought so too. It just so happened that the project that Mingxi and I were working on ended. We submitted the report early and applied for a period of rest. As you know, Mingxi and I are engaged in scientific research. In the past few years, let alone having children, 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 I think I really owe this kid."

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 will I be able to rest at home for a while and when will I regenerate."

Mrs. Li agrees with this point of view very much: "You are right, otherwise, if the child is not well cared for, even your body will not be able to bear it."

Wang Sufen looked at Xie Yanan's body that had never gained weight, and couldn't help asking, "Did you hurt your body when you were born during the Lantern Festival? How can I see that you haven't gained much weight all these years?"

Xie Yanan sighed: "I think it was because I went to work too early, and I was a little tired. I haven't made up for it all these years. I'm thinking about taking advantage of this vacation to find a good doctor to prescribe a prescription to take care of myself. ."

This idea coincided with the idea of ​​Mrs. Li and Wang Sufen, and 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 a 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. Ask them to come and sit when you are free." Wang Sufen nodded and pointed to the outside and said, "Dr. Zhang's house is very close to our house, and it's just outside the Houyang area. It's hot now, and sometimes he doesn't have much appetite. Just 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 the top of her voice: "Brother Zhang is here? Come in and sit down."

Zhang Renze shook his 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 ask your mother to wash some cucumbers and persimmons."

Mrs. Li took out the tea leaves that Li Muwen sent, Zhen Zhen came in with a thermos bottle, took the tea leaves, made a pot of tea, and 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 holidays?"

"Of course it's comfortable." Zhen Zhen took advantage of the situation and stretched her waist: "Every day reading and painting is so relaxing, Mr. Zhang, you said that I am living in the same bed that the prince's family used to live in, and my life is so lazy again. Isn't it the same as the ladies in ancient times?"

Zhang Renze looked at Zhen Zhen Zhile and said, "Which girl is so wild like you, I'd be worried to death."

When Mrs. Li heard it, she laughed and laughed: "I'll let you tell me, my granddaughter can't be home if she can walk. When I was a child, I knew that I would go out with my brother and not run around by myself. The sky is either going up the mountain or going down the river, I can’t wait to eat without coming back, but it’s wild.”

Zhang Renze remembered how quirky Zhen Zhen looked when she was a child, and couldn't help but boast: "This kid is wild and smart, or can he get into the University of God?"

"That's true." Mrs. Li agreed with her heartfelt words, her face almost bursting with laughter.

Zhen Zhen covered her face with her hands and made a shy 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 praise come. be more violent."

Madam Li raised her slap and gently landed on Zhen Zhen's arm, and said with a doting smile: "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 was wondering when she would be able to study Chinese medicine with me diligently. She also gave me a heir or something, 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 needs to follow you firmly, and study it for ten years. Only by drilling can you become an apprentice. A scumbag like me who can only fish for three days and spend two days in the net has ruined this knowledge. If you want to spread your medical skills, sir, you can go to a medical university to teach."

When Zhang Renze heard this, he sighed in disappointment: "That's what you said, but it seems that we no longer have the fate of master and apprentice."

"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 think I'm stupid, teach me This is it."

Zhang Renze looked at Zhen Zhen's 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 negotiated the time, and Zhang Renze's hot sweat subsided. He opened the medicine box, took out the pulse diagnosis and bought it on the table: "Old sister, I will give you a Ping An pulse."

"It's your job." The old lady Li put her arms on the pulse pillow, Zhang Renze touched the pulse on both sides, and said with a smile: "It's good, your body is much stronger than before, as long as you don't get cold in the summer. Seeing the heavens, drinking hot water is fine." Seeing that she didn't even need to take traditional 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 finished reading, and 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, this is the first time I've seen you. Your number pulse."

Xie Yanan couldn't wait to come over and sit down after hearing the words. Madam Li and the others only knew that Zhang Renze was an old Chinese medicine doctor who saw a lot of doctors, but they didn't know that even the top leaders of the country asked Zhang Renze to take care of him.

Zhen Zhen said about Xie Yanan's situation in advance, Zhang Renze was also very interested in her, it took more than half an hour to diagnose the pulse, and after a long deliberation, she prescribed a decoction: "You have been too tired these years, When I was a child, I didn’t have a good time to recuperate, and my kidney water and qi and blood were a little deficient, so I’ll give you a prescription first, and after you take it for ten days, I’ll come back to feel your pulse.”

Xie Yanan got up and thanked him, and quickly assured: "I happen to have two months of recuperation leave, and I will definitely take my medicine on time."

After hearing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly said, "Since you don't have to go 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 in it. I wish you all stayed here and the house is lively."

Xie Yanan brought his bag with a smile, and took out a stack of money and bills from it: "It just happens that the salary has not been put down yet, so I will pay for the meal first."

Mrs. Li smiled and took out two big unity and got a few tickets: "I still want to go to those, 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 worked for many years, and we have saved a lot at home. We live here for a day, sure Pay for a day, or we won't live."

Wang Sufen looked at Mrs. Li at a loss, and Mrs. Li nodded slowly: "Yanan also makes 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 as a guest today, and I'll come back another day."

Mrs. Li knew that Zhang Renze was a sincere person and never said those stupid 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 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 for 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. They all stayed."

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 ask for money but not for tickets, they also give more money." Zhang Renze looked at Zhen Zhen's appearance, and asked her curiously: "You said that you also have a big mansion at a young age, with antique calligraphy and paintings at home. There are a lot of them, and you don’t need to pay for your daily life, so what are you doing with the money you sell ginseng?”

Zhen Zhen hesitated for a moment before saying: "Houses in our country have always been allocated to units, as the population increases, but not many houses are built. Take Beijing as an example, how many houses can one courtyard house live in? There are ten families, some families with three generations, old and young, squeezed into a hut of twenty or thirty square meters and can't even turn around."

Zhang Renze was very touched when he heard this. There was such a large courtyard in a hutong not far from his home. When the boy was a little older, he began to worry. He didn't even have a separate house. How could he marry a wife for his child?

Zhen Zhen glanced at the look on Zhang Renze's face and said seriously: "The country doesn't have so much money to solve the housing problem of so many people, and houses must become commodities sooner or later. I plan to buy some real estate when I can openly buy and sell houses. ."

Although Zhang Renze understood what Zhen Zhen said, he still didn't quite understand why Zhen Zhen was hoarding so much real estate, 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're saying, I know that your plans are more long-term." He looked at Zhen Zhen with admiration in his eyes: "I admire your courageous and resourceful drive. , and if there is anything else that needs to be sold in the future, just come to me."

"Okay." Zhen Zhen agreed swiftly, she put the money in the box, and took out a bag of Ganoderma lucidum from the inside: "I picked it up on the mountain, make wine for Mr.

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 she was going to learn medicated meals with Mr. Zhang tomorrow, Zhen Zhen was thinking about going to the bookstore to buy books, and after talking to Mrs. Li, she was 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: "There is still an hour before dinner, will you go in the afternoon?"

"I'm eating out." Zhen Zhen said, "I'll be in the bookstore in the afternoon, and I'll be back at night." After hearing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly opened the cabinet to get the money and food stamps, but when they took them out, Zhen Zhen ran away early No shadow.

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 then stopped again. The young man came up, he glanced into the carriage, and when he saw Zhen Zhen who was reading a book with her head down, a hint 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 knew this, but she always felt that being in a daze in the car was a waste of time, so no matter where she was, she liked 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 really care about people." Zhen Zhen smiled: "I heard from many classmates that they dare not 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, never pay attention to anyone or anything in the class, I dare You didn't even recognize all the students in the French class, did you?"

Zhen Zhen smirked, the French major took the least courses among the three majors that Zhen Zhen studied. Usually, apart from the French class, Zhen Zhen’s other courses are mainly self-study, so the classmates in the class don’t say they know everything. , In fact, she also knew Xi Junjie, mainly because of Xi Junjie's good-looking and strong aura, 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 the only one?"

Zhen Zhen looked at Xi Junjie in shock: "Have you guessed this?" She swayed playfully with her braid: "Mainly, when Teacher Meng asks questions, she always asks her student number, never by name, I am a French major.You really don't know anyone but you."

Xi Junjie coughed lightly, and his face turned slightly red: "Is that so special?"
