Chapter 95

Julia regained her strength the next day, and she was clamoring to get out of bed and cook because it was her turn to take her turn today.

"You love to work so much?" Yin Zhen glared at her, and brought the boiled porridge to her, "Someone is doing it, don't worry about it!" ”

"Who?" Julia took the porridge bowl and asked curiously, "The family affairs are all distributed, who has the spare time?" ”

"Old ten." Yin Zhen said angrily, "This time he harmed you, and he cooked the meals for the next week." ”

Julia was amused: "Why, I'm not fine!" ”

"You didn't see what happened to you yesterday!" Yin Zhen sank his face, "Lao Jiu can't even touch your pulse." ”

Julia muttered as she drank the porridge, "How can it be so serious...... You must have scared Lao Ten a lot again. ”

"That kid deserves it." Yin Zhen said sullenly.

As Julia said, the tenth elder brother was very frightened this time, and even the ninth elder brother, who had always been towards him, also counted him down sternly. Brother Jiu said that their group of people can now have a place to live in the villa area, all thanks to Julia. Not to mention Julia's many ways of taking care of them on weekdays, once Julia has three longs and two shorts, how can they be worthy of others?

Even Yinxiang took the opportunity to harm him, and when he helped him tear off the tape on his head, he was so hard that the tenth elder brother screamed in pain.

"Why are they all scolding me?" Brother Ten was angry and painful, "I also want everyone to eat fish!" I didn't expect there to be zombies in the river! ”

At this time, only Julia said good things for the ten elder brothers. She said that she really didn't blame him for this, but she was so anxious that her brain was confused, and she forgot to shoot and went straight up to hand-to-hand combat, and finally got like that.

Yin Zhen rolled his eyes: "You will always say good things for others." ”

Julia laughed and said, "You all scolded him so badly, how can he stay in this house?" Useless children can't be scolded, the more they scold, the more useless they are, and a lot of encouragement is enough. ”

Yin Zhen looked at her for a long time, and suddenly said: "I have already seen it, and you are most afraid of discord in this family." In the future, you will be given a 'Dinghai God Needle'. ”

Julia was amused by him: "I'm not going to do it!" It ended up in the monkey's ear. Is that where I am? ”

She was looking for peace in this family. Yin Zhen suddenly thought, what a ridiculous thing this is! In the whole world, the most discordant and deceitful family is this family. Villa area here. It's just a microcosm of this family under special conditions. If you really take Julia to the Forbidden City. Sooner or later, she would have to be suffocated by the omnipresent murderous force.

Yinzhen was distracted, and Andre came in with a pot of flowers: "What ears?" Ear and eye fried cakes? ”

Julia laughed, "Why do you care so much about eating?" ”

AndrΓ© brought into the house a pot of sunflowers he raised. He found some flower seeds in the wild. But AndrΓ© was not satisfied with the color of the flowers, and after his continuous cultivation, this year's sunflower bloomed his favorite crimson.

In this family, only Andre is still interested in flowers and plants. The rest of the people agreed that if they couldn't eat it, then even if they planted a great wonder, it would be wasted. Andre was particularly sad when he heard this comment, and he said to Brother Jiu: "Didn't the Ninth Master spend several years looking for skilled craftsmen and want to artificially cultivate green peonies? Why are you not interested now? ”

When Brother Jiu heard this, he replied very sincerely: "I don't want green peonies now, I just want a few green cabbages - if green peonies are more delicious when fried, that's fine!" ”

Ignoring everyone's negative attitude, Andre persevered in raising flowers and plants that could not be eaten. He would nurture the Moonflower, the delphinium, and he would erect a shelf for the roses in mid-spring so that they would bloom more in the sun.

"I'm not that interested in eating." AndrΓ© spoke slowly, placing the sunflower on the windowsill of Julia's bedroom. This is the third floor, and the sunlight is pouring down from the top, and the room is exceptionally bright.

"What the hell are you talking about?" He asked, "Whose ears?" ”

"I'm talking about Monkey King." Julia said, "Talk about his needle." ”

Andrei's eyes lit up all at once!

"I like Monkey King! I adore him the most! ”

Julia laughed: "You worship Monkey King? How do I remember you said that you worship Ah Zhen? ”

"Monkey King was my idol in my childhood." Andrei explained, "The fourth master is the person I admired the most when I became an adult. ”

Yin Zhen glanced at him strangely: "Why do you admire me?" ”

"As a very outstanding emperor in history, it's not surprising that the fourth master is admired by future generations, right?" Andre said, "Although your position in my heart has to be ranked behind Sun Wukong. ”

Julia laughed, "Look at these two people you admire!" Yongzheng and Sun Wukong! Hahaha! Ah, you're so glorious! ”

Yin Zhen was angry and happy: "I don't want to be in line with a monkey!" ”

"That's not right, Sun Wukong is not an ordinary monkey, he is ......"

Before Andrei finished speaking, he was interrupted by Julia: "Okay, okay, Andre, how can you like Monkey King?" You are not Chinese. ”

"Well, it's actually because when I was a child, my father collected a lot of Chinese porcelain. Some porcelain from the Ming and Qing dynasties is painted with the story of Journey to the West. My father, who collected these antique porcelains and knew them well, told me the story. ”

Julia listened thoughtfully, and she nodded: "There are a lot of Ming and Qing porcelain?" So, Andrey, your family is quite rich? ”

Andrei smiled slightly: "My family is in business and has an oil company under it. ”

Julia's eyes widened in surprise!

"It turns out that your family is rich!"

Yin Zhen also understood beside him, and he asked curiously: "Is Andrei's family rich?" ”

"Of course!" Julia immediately said, "Oil company! This is no ordinary family of the little rich! Uh, of course, it can't be compared with Ah Zhen's family, but it's already beyond the reach of ordinary people like me. ”

Andrei shrugged: "Anyway, there is nothing now, equal to zero." ”

Julia was also curious: "But Andre, your family is so rich, why didn't you inherit the family business, but you came to be a sinologist?" ”

"I don't like those, I'm not a person who can run a company." "I told my parents a long time ago that I wanted to go this way, to study what I liked, that I liked Oriental culture. ”

"Your dad didn't object?" Yin Zhen asked.

Andrei smiled and shook his head: "No." He said that I could do whatever I wanted, and they would not interfere with me. ”

He said, stretching out his wrist: "This watch was given to me by my father the year I graduated." ”

Julia, she'd already seen the watch.

"Patek Philippe." Julia said enviously, "I should have guessed from this watch that you were rich." ”

Yin Zhen was still ignorant: "Is his watch very expensive?" ”

Julia stretched out her wrist: "My Swatch sells for three hundred to five hundred, Patek Philippe, all of them are millions, that is, his watch is worth 10,000 yuan like mine." Now, do you understand how expensive his watch is? ”

Andrei looked down at his watch and said, "The price doesn't matter. This is a gift from my father, and now I only have this thing in my hand. ”

From the very beginning of their acquaintance with Andrei, they knew that he would go out alone from time to time. At that time, no one knew what he was doing outside, and Andrei never took the initiative to mention it.

Later, everyone lived in the villa area together, and after the situation calmed down, Andrei's habit of going out alone began to resume again.

It turned out that he went out with only one goal: books.

"I want to keep the book for as long as possible." Andrei said, "Human culture cannot be interrupted here, and in the future, human beings will pass through the dark period and start a civilized life again, and they will need the books of the past." ”

When Andre leaned against the campfire and said this, the rest of the people looked at him silently.

For them, who are barely able to maintain food and clothing, it is too far away to preserve human culture or something.

"So what can you do?" Julia smiled bitterly, "Books can extend their lifespan to two hundred years under extremely strict storage, but the problem is that there is no means of storage now, and the temperature and humidity make the fungal spores crazy long, and in just a few decades, they will rot so much that there is no scum left." ”

Andrei nodded: "I'm running with zombies." I hope that they will soon become extinct and that humanity will regain its own civilization – even if it is very small, but I will do it. ”

When he said this, there was a rare determined light in his gray-blue eyes.

AndrΓ©'s preservation strategy was rather rudimentary: he collected books that he considered valuable to keep, and then checked them regularly, storing them in a dry and cool place.

"The rainy season in Jiangnan is the worst enemy, the damage to the houses is widespread and severe, and the windows in those libraries are broken, and most of the time the books are soaked in humidity above 95 percent." AndrΓ© sighed at this, "I wish there were people in the north who did the same." The Dead Sea Scrolls have been able to survive for two thousand years because they are hidden in caves in the desert. I think the environment in the Northwest is more conducive to the preservation of books. ”

"There will be!" Julia said firmly, "Even if a nerd like you is only one percent, someone will be your comrade." ”

"You have a comrade now." Yin Zhen suddenly said, "Andre, I want to go and see those books you collected. ”

Andrei was stunned.

"Take me to your 'library'." Yinzhen said, "Maybe in the future, I can also help keep them together." ”

Andre laughed, he was obviously happy: "Okay, I'm going to go and see tomorrow, and the fourth master will go with me." ”

"I'll go too!" Julia immediately stretched out her hand, "You can't just pick liberal arts books to keep, science students also have to enjoy preferential treatment!" ”

Andre nodded: "That makes sense, then let's go together tomorrow." (To be continued......)
