Sheng Shuyi feels that it only takes one opportunity for life to be different. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

A day ago, she thought that this was the end of their family's life in this exotic city: keeping their heads away from their neighbors, living their own little lives at home, trying to adapt to the climate and food...... But in just one day, her life has changed dramatically.

She had a New Year's Friend who was very opportunistic about any topic, and through this New Year's Friend, she joined a dog club, and then met a group of friends! Among them were students from nearby universities, housewives, female lawyers who rented nearby, retired teachers, and even well-known scholars who were said to be very famous in the academic world......

Sheng Shuyi was most surprised by Anna...... God knows how shocked she was when she heard that Anna had never married, not even when she learned that she was a professor at a prestigious university.

In recent years, the social atmosphere in China has opened up a lot, and the so-called "new ideas" have blossomed everywhere, especially those "new youths" who claim to have freed themselves from the shackles of feudal etiquette and religion, those who "dedicate" themselves to art, those who have a wife or a married woman who pursue true love, those who live together with unmarried men and women, and those who are entangled in love...... Don't look at Sheng Shuyi has been locked up in the backyard, but she is in the Li family's house of hiding filth and filth, to be honest, she is like sitting in a movie theater with rich "film sources", all kinds of plots are staged anytime and anywhere, and her horizons are not ordinary "broad"!

It's just that no matter how broad-minded she is, she has seen such a woman who insists on never marrying, but lives as open-minded, calm and happy as Anna! The little girl was very surprised. It's not that she hasn't seen old girls in Huaxia, but those people, without exception, give her a not very good feeling—numbness, depression, cringe, and even shame to see people, as if even they feel inferior. And the optimistic, calm and confident Anna is completely different from the "old girl" she has seen in the past, whether it is the temperament of the whole body or the aura revealed in her speech and demeanor, it has refreshed Sheng Shuyi's perception of the past.

It turns out that a woman can really live so freely!

This morning, Sheng Shuyi had a very happy time. Not only because of the friendly treatment of friends in the dog club, but also because of the sudden openness of mind. To tell the truth, she thinks she is a girl who has no shortage of love, and the love given to her by her mother and Aunt Xu is enough for her to live happily. It's just that what happened to her mother and Aunt Xu is still deeply engraved in her heart! She is still young, she has not been in contact with too many people, she knows a lot of things, and she doesn't know how the unknown emotions hidden deep in her heart will affect her. However, she could vaguely feel that those things were bad and needed to be eliminated in time. And Anna may be the guide who will guide her to find the way to dissolve......

Since meeting Anna and other friends in the dog club, Sheng Shuyi's life has suddenly become full and busy. They meet at least twice a week to lead their dogs in the beautiful park: watch the dogs run happily, watch a group of fluffy little ones play and play, watch them beckon squirrels to tease the swans, only to be chased by the fierce fat swans flapping their wings and screaming miserably with their tails between them...... And when the dogs played, the owners paid attention to the naughty little guys, and at the same time gathered in a place to chat, chat, talk about current affairs, talk about philosophy, talk about literature, talk about professional disciplines, and talk about daily trivialities.

Sheng Shuyi usually likes to be a listener, but when it comes to topics that interest her, she also actively participates in them, sharing her views with friends in her increasingly native English.

On this day, everyone chatted and chatted, and somehow, talked about food. Almost all of them have traveled to many countries, surrounding them, and even crossed oceans to the Americas. When they talk about the delicacies of other countries, their eyes are shining, and their faces are full of aftertaste, and they don't know, they think they have eaten some delicacies in the world.

"Ivey, what's the best food in your country?" asked Kate, a female lawyer who had just tasted French fried foie gras, curiously. She has traveled to many countries to study, but so far, she has not had the opportunity to go to the distant ancient countries of the East. In the years after the war subsided, the belligerent mood in the country had not yet completely subsided, and many militants advocated that the British Empire should take the lead and take that vast ancient civilization into its own backyard. However, the slap in the face came too quickly, and a column of warships was beaten to pieces before they entered the waters of the people's house, and the government not only had to bear losses, but also had to spend money to ransom the captured soldiers! This battle, which had ended before it had even begun, made people realize the danger of arrogance, and also made many people aware of the strength and indomitability of that country far away on the other side of the ocean. Kate is not an extreme nationalist, and she would love to see that country with her own eyes, but she has never had the right time. Now I met Ivy from Huaxia, and she immediately turned into a hundred thousand whys, often chasing the little girl to ask questions that sounded very whimsical.

"We have so many cuisines there that I'm not qualified to say what is the best food. In our country, there are places where you love spicy food, and there are places where you have a light diet...... However, personally, I prefer pork trotters in sauce, roasted pork ribs, and back to the pot meat...... Sheng Shuyi didn't know how to say these dishes in English, so she simply spoke Chinese directly, and when she saw that everyone was confused, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. "I don't know how to tell you, if you have the opportunity to come to my house as a guest, I will ask my mother and Aunt Xu to cook for you. ”

"Okay, okay!" everyone agreed, "Why don't we have a food party, where everyone prepares a dish to participate in and then tastes it together?"

After discussion, the party was finally settled at Anna's house. In their opinion, Sheng Shuyi is a child who lives with her parents, and they do not know her parents, so it is not suitable to throw a party in her home.

On the day of the party, my mother and Aunt Xu began to prepare early in the morning, considering that foreigners are not very good at eating spicy food, and there are many taboo things, so they made a sweet and sour tenderloin and made a pot of mushroom soup. Fortunately, I live in the same building with Anna, otherwise it would be really difficult for Sheng Shuyi to bring such a large amount of weight.

"Just such a dish and a soup, will it be too cold?" Shu'er rarely made friends, and Aunt Xu was happy for several days, but the more she valued it, the more she cared, and she always felt that such a home-cooked meal was a little out of her hands.

"No, no, no. Sheng Shuyi hurriedly spoke, for fear that Aunt Xu would be excited to make a big banquet for her. "We said that one person would bring one, and I already brought an extra can of soup!"

"If we don't have enough to eat, we should make lunch soon." Mother Sheng also saw that Miss Anna, and knew at a glance that it was a very well-bred lady, although she was a lot of age behind her daughter, but she felt that it was absolutely no harm for her daughter to associate with such a person, so she was very much in favor of her daughter going out more and communicating more.

"Uh-huh, got it!"

Before Sheng Shuyi went out with a can of soup and a large plate of sweet and sour tenderloin with the lid fastened, Aunt Xu also stuffed a lot of freshly cooked flower rolls into the basket for her, she couldn't bear to brush Aunt Xu's kindness, so she had to go out with a basket full of food.

When Sheng Shuyi arrived, the friends of the dog club were almost there. It was also the first time she had come to Anna's house, and she looked around curiously.

Suddenly, a melodious sound of music sounded.

Sheng Shuyi followed the sound and saw Kate sitting in front of a piano, her slender fingers beating deftly, playing one beautiful syllable after another.

"Do you like it?" Kate said to Sheng Shuyi with a smile as she played.

"Well, that's nice. "Dr. Field was born without a musical cell and did not have a single musical instrument at home. However, Sheng Shuyi had seen a piano when she was in the Li Mansion, and it was when she was in her early tens, and her grandmother specially spent a lot of money to buy it for her little aunt. But the little aunt was hot for three minutes, and she became impatient after a few days, but the piano was not abandoned because of this, it was placed in the main hall by the grandmother, polished by the servants, and became a tool for the Li family to show "taste" and financial resources.

"Come, follow me to play ......"

The warm fingers touched the slightly cool keys, which were a little rusty at first, and the melodious music under Kate's hands became strange and harsh in her hands. Soon, however, her sensitive senses took effect and gradually caught up with the rhythm, and later, she was able to play this simple piano piece smoothly without even staring at Kate's hand.

The more fun I played, the smoother I played, and the more I was infected by the cheerful music of Sheng Shuyi's subordinates, the other people in the room unconsciously hooked the corners of their mouths.

In this food party, Sheng Shuyi, who came with a basket, won without surprise. The sweet and sour tenderloin made by her mother and the three fresh soup made by Aunt Xu conquered the taste buds of her friends, but fortunately she brought enough of them, otherwise it might not be enough. And what surprised Sheng Shuyi the most was that several friends were very interested in Hanamaki, and even Anna asked if she could tell her how Hanamaki was doing!

After the food party, Sheng Shuyi became a regular visitor to Anna's house. Anna is now semi-retired and only needs to take one day a week to school. She heard that Sheng Shuyi was studying at home, and offered to help her with her homework.

A professor from a well-known university became a teacher, Sheng Shuyi naturally couldn't ask for it, and immediately agreed excitedly. In return, she will bring some food and snacks to Anna every day, Anna is probably not fat, she looks very good, but there is no sign of gaining weight. But her dog, David, is a little one who has gained a lot of weight, especially when he runs, he looks like a beating golden fur ball! )
