Chapter 844 Picking up people
After arriving upstairs, Jiang Shuyi breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest: "It almost scared me to death a few times just now!"
Zhou Zhi smiled, Chapter 8 The first time probably started when Principal Zhao said, "Everyone gets half of the military medals." The second time was when Jiang's mother said, "You two should be good together." The third time probably started when my mother was concerned about the relationship between Yan Xiao and He Shiqing. .
Pretending to be relaxed, he said: "Looking at the attitudes of Principal Zhao and Mom, they are actually very tolerant. They banned it before, mainly because they were afraid that we would affect learning."
"You Look at my mother’s gossipy attitude when she asked about Salt Rat and Shiqing’s situation. Isn’t that an unacceptable attitude?”
"There are also the square and our former dormitory at the agricultural machinery factory, so scary!" Jiang Shu felt a chill on the back of his neck just thinking about it: "Every night after self-study, we were crossing the cemetery."
"You I'm scaring myself." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "The cemeteries are gone long ago, and I discovered a problem by reading ancient people's notes, that is, even if there are ghosts. , will not exist in the world for long."
"Really?"
"Look, there are many records of Fuji in the notes of ancient people. Please come here. Ghosts often recite poems and compose poems. "
"In the stories of the Republic of China, the level of ghosts in classical Chinese is far behind."
“When they were in the first year of high school, they liked to play pen fairy, so they would simply answer yes or no.”
“So it seems that ghosts, like people, also have metabolism. It is the younger generations of the Yangtze River who urge their elders. A new generation replaces an old ghost."
Jiang Shuyi snorted and finally laughed out loud: "I feel like you are talking nonsense."
"You have also read "Notes of Yuewei Thatched Cottage," haven't you?" Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Almost forty years have passed since the square was built. There have been two more generations of people in the world, and the ghosts should also change. There were two crops.”
“So even if some of the old cemetery remains, it was gone as early as twenty years ago.”
There are also two tables at Zhou Zhi's house, but they are upstairs. Lao Yang and his apprentices are eating after finishing the banquet.
This is also the way to reserve seats in rural areas now. The oil kitchen team also has a table, but they do not eat with the guests of the host family.
"Is the boss satisfied this time?" Lao Yang saw Zhou Zhi coming, put down his glass and asked.
"The owner of this meal is Shu Yi, and I am the mediator. Let her know if she is satisfied or not." Zhou Zhi was very familiar with Lao Yang, and they were always laughing and joking when they met.
Jiang Shuyi gently tugged at Zhou Zhi. She did not dare to talk to Lao Yang as her master.
"This meal is very comfortable." Zhou Zhi had no choice but to take over the conversation: "The authentic Jiudou Bowl is a little hard to find in the city now."
"The main thing is that the soup is a bit troublesome. The soup is ready. Everything else is easy to talk about, it’s just a matter of putting it on fire." Lao Yang said, "Sit down and have some food together."
"No, no, let's come up first to say thank you for your hard work."
"The big pot of chicken soup has been prepared for Lao Xu, and the chicken offal has been taken care of, but nothing has changed. Dao, Lao Xu is picky, he deserves to be exhausted to death!" Speaking of this, Lao Yang still made fun of Lao Xu's pretentiousness.
"Old Xu has something to pursue." Zhou Zhi also smiled: "You dare to argue with a man who is both hot and crisp and can perform five kinds of knife skills?"
For the dish of Hot Double Crisp, Lao Xu has to cut five types of flower knives. Among them, the kidneys need to be cut with two kinds of flowers according to the mood. Generally, the chrysanthemum flower knife and the phoenix tail flower knife are used; the belly flower needs to be cut with three kinds of flowers. The magnolia flower knife composed of knives represents the core, petals and receptacle of magnolia respectively. Speaking of which, Lao Xu was also brought into the ditch by Zhou Zhi and his godfather. He went further and further in the word "exquisite" of private dishes. He and Lao Yang specialize in farm dishes, which are heavy on aroma and taste but light on color. They are no longer the same. .
Although the two of them competed with each other verbally, they actually admired each other in their hearts. Lao Yang couldn't help but get dizzy when he saw Lao Xu's dozens of knife skills, while Lao Xu asked himself that he was the best in Sichuan cuisine. He is not as good as Lao Yang in that profound subject - Diao Tang Shang.
After greeting Lao Yang, the two went downstairs to arrange the fruit plate and pastry plate, and then went out to pick up their fourth cousin and aunt.
The wheelchair made by An Ran’s cousin has been upgraded again. A battery and motor are installed under the wheelchair. There is a control panel on the right armrest. It is actually a slow crawler car. In addition to the previous stair climbing function, there is also With better battery life, you can drive it on the streets.
The only disadvantage is that the speed is very slow, which is about the same as a person walking slowly. With the current battery capacity, it cannot go very far. It can walk back and forth from Zaoling Bridge to Hongshui River Bridge in Jiachuan County.
The weather was a little hot. When I came to the small courtyard, I saw my fourth cousin preparing for my fourth aunt to go out.
A cool board was set up on the wheelchair, which was made of bamboo slices. The amazing thing is that there is a painting on it, which is three-quarters of the way into the bamboo.
This bamboo mat has been used until it is as oily as amber, making the orchid stone pattern on it even more vivid and sophisticated.
“This is not the skill of an ordinary craftsman.” Zhou Zhi could tell at a glance that this painting was not done by the old craftsman who made bamboo chairs at the north entrance.
"Painting bamboo mats is actually similar to painting traditional Chinese paintings." The fourth cousin said: "But instead of using ink, we use hydrochloric acid." The acid traces are arranged in the painting according to the light."
"After the painting is done, the front strokes have dried, and you need to spray it again with water to keep it moist, and then spray it with a flamethrower, and the acid traces will turn. black carbonization , here you can also control the intensity of the pen and ink twice by using the fire time to achieve a more complex painting effect."
"After all the strokes are sprayed, a lasting picture will be imprinted. At the table.”
“Your fourth uncle made this by himself decades ago.” My fourth aunt smiled and said, “I couldn’t bear to throw it away. I have changed the rope ten times.”
"But you can't throw it away. If you really want to throw it away, let me know and I'll help." Zhou Zhi smiled and helped his fourth cousin to stick the bamboo mat on the wheelchair and fold the extra part back: "The Hsinchu chair can hold meat, so you have to use it. After decades, I feel smooth and comfortable.”
“Hello, fourth cousin, hello, fourth aunt.” Only then did Jiang Shuyi have time to say hello to the two old people.
"Shu Yi has gained a little weight and looks better." Jiang Shuyi's quiet personality suits her fourth aunt very well, and she often visits with Zhou Zhi. When Zhou Zhi repairs ancient paintings with her fourth uncle, Si Her aunt taught Jiang Shuyi how to seal incense and make tea. Now Jiang Shuyi has received the true teaching.
After all, Zhou Zhi's character is still a bit out of touch. In terms of meticulous skills, he can be calm and composed only in calligraphy and painting, but he becomes a little impatient when switching to other categories.
My fourth cousin often asked Zhou Zhilin to practice writing in small regular script with a thousand characters as a way of "self-denial". He wanted you to become impatient as you write, and then use your will to overcome this impatience, and gradually turn it into Stay focused.
With this skill, talents can further develop their "state of mind", be able to control and adjust their own negative emotions, and finally achieve the cultivation of "introversion and implication".
But it's not in nature to do this. Li Jiang Shuyi's naturally calm and steady temperament was one step behind.
