Chapter Twenty-Eight: Talking about Heaven and Earth
Sometimes, Lu Ci is really a little envious of Yunli, in the face of the same situation, this person can always handle the problem with ease, has knowledge and ability, but is not self-assured, independent thinking, does not follow the crowd, has novel ideas, is good at exploration, and works hard for it.
If you want to say that he has any shortcomings, what Lu Ci can think of is that it is too mysterious, this is not the mystery of identity or background, but after being in contact with Yunli for so long, she still feels that Yunli is too far away for her. I can't guess his thoughts, I can't keep up with his pace, even if I work hard, sometimes I can't even help him share the trivial things at work. But he would always smile and say to himself that it doesn't matter, don't mind, don't worry, there is always a back in his mind to remind himself that you are people in two worlds, the other world, you can't touch it.
"What about you? When you were young, were you as cold and cool as you are now, standing in the crowd, you became a humanoid cooling machine. Seeing that Lu Ci wasn't listening to his own story, and didn't know what he was thinking, Yun Li said jokingly.
"Huh? Well, I'm a person from the beginning, how I was when I was a child, how I am now, and that's how it will be in the future, but unfortunately it's not summer, Mr. Yun should pay attention to keeping warm and be careful of catching a cold. When he came back to his senses and heard that Yunli was making fun of himself, Lu Ci took it upon himself and wittily shot back.
Yun Li pulled the zipper on his clothes, made a gesture of sneezing, and at the end of the action, he switched to chopsticks, put a shrimp in the bowl, and changed the topic: "Where did you learn this technique of making seafood, it is no worse than the one in the restaurant, and it is not quite like our practice there." ”
"I told you before that in the early years, the Lu family had been doing business in the surrounding small countries, where there were abundant aquatic products, and the family also liked to eat them. Even after returning to China, my family still often cooks and eats, and I have learned a little bit from hearing and seeing. This is the taste of Southeast Asia, and the authentic method will also add a lot of chili peppers and spices, and the ingredients are not complete today, so I will have the opportunity to make it for you to taste in the future. Lu Ci took a crab shell on the table, put it in his hand, and explained to Yunli while playing with it.
"That's it, I'll write down the materials later, I'll buy it tomorrow, if I can't buy it, where are the rivers around here, and what I catch by myself should be no worse than what I sell." Yunli raised his wine glass and said with a smile to Lu Ci.
Lu Ci also picked up the wine glass and touched it, raised his head and took a small sip, a flush appeared on both cheeks, and said with a smile: "You, why don't you just dig a pond in Xiaolu Mountain, raise some shrimp, fish, crabs, when you want to eat, just go and fish, see how good you are at growing melons and vegetables, it shouldn't be a problem to raise some small shrimp and small fish." ”
"It's not a big problem, but you know that the crops I grow have to be observed every day to record their growth, and the same is true for shrimp and fish. So before that, I have to buy a set of diving equipment, swimsuits, swimming trunks, swimming goggles or something, if I spread some sand next to it, set up a parasol, alas, oh my god, isn't this the Maldives? ”
The more Yun Li said, the more exaggerated it became, making Lu Ci so happy that he couldn't do it, he lay on the table and laughed, the more he thought about it, the more funny he felt, maybe Yun Li would really do this, the picture was too beautiful to look at directly.
Next, the two continued to talk about many topics, from pastoral customs, to exotic customs, from childhood anecdotes, to college life, from Shakespeare, to firewood, rice, oil and salt. Although the dishes on the table were all cold and there was no wine left in the glass, it did not prevent the two from chatting and sharing bitterness.
To Yunli's surprise, Lu Ci is also very interested in antiques, and he also has a lot of skills and a wide range of knowledge. Curious, Yun Li took out his collection and showed it to Lu Ci, although she could not tell the age and origin of everything, but the characteristics and historical meanings of their bodies, Lu Ci could say that they were not far from ten, and in some aspects even Yun Li could not reach.
Take the two moth jade pendants that he bought from Aunt Fang in the antique market, Yun Li could only see their approximate origin and purpose, but Lu Ci could judge that the carved patterns on the two wings of the moth jade pendant were the unique totems of a certain family that were entrenched in the southwest region thousands of years ago. Although there is no detailed record in the historical materials, the same imprint of this pattern can still be found in some temples or family ancestral halls.
After buying the jade pendant last time, Yun Li searched on the Internet, but he couldn't find too much information related to it, so he didn't delve into it anymore, but now he was solved by Lu Ci.
After careful questioning, I learned that the Lu family also had an antique business, and it was not all legitimate, they had a lot of related books in their house, Lu Ci had no playmates when he was a child, except for school, most of the time he was alone, so he took these books to read and kill time. The more books he reads, the more interested Lu Ci is in these things, and many of the furnishings in Lu's house are antiques, Lu Ci can compare and learn from real things, and this knowledge is slowly accumulated in this way.
In fact, Lu Ci studied in college, that is, the major of the Department of History, the field of archives management, the university she studied before, the professional level in this regard is one of the best in the country, Lu Ci originally planned to complete the university degree, to apply for the scientific research projects of foreign museums, while working while continuing to study, but the sophomore year was not finished, and he was forced to drop out.
Speaking of this matter now, Lu Ci has been relieved a lot, knowing that Yunli also has the same interest, and it is not as professional as her own, which makes her somewhat happy and even proud.
If it weren't for the crackling sound of firecrackers in the distance, Yun Li and Lu Ci would not know that the time had reached the early hours of the morning, and every household was lighting Chinese New Year's Eve firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the new year in this lively way.
It wasn't early, Lu Ci also had to say goodbye and go back, because she drank some wine, and the amount of alcohol was shallow, for the sake of safety, Yunli still sent her home in person.
I don't know if it's the continuous sound of firecrackers, or other reasons, Yunli didn't feel sleepy, so he took his phone and looked through the content information.
The signal here in Xiaolushan is not good, sometimes you can't even make a phone call, and there is often a delay in sending and receiving text messages, as for surfing the Internet, it can only be described by the word "turtle speed", so Yunli sometimes wants to check something online, it is very difficult. He once went to the telecommunications bureau in the town and asked if he wanted to pull a network cable to Xiaolushan, and estimated that he would have to pay three or four thousand for materials, and it was an ordinary dial-up, not an optical fiber.
Now the funds in hand are quite abundant, but this is the capital of the early construction of the manor, Yunli wants to use them in the most reasonable place, and Xiaolushan will carry out large-scale expansion after the year, and there will be places where it costs money, and the idea of pulling the network cable will be temporarily thrown away. Moreover, there is a networked computer in Luzhen Middle School, and if you need it urgently, Yunli can borrow it, but it takes a little more effort.
In the text message box, phone and chat software, a large amount of information has been piled up, and Yun Li flipped through them one by one to check, most of them were holiday greetings from some classmates, and some people I met here also had letters. Like Lao Luo and Qiangzi of the acquisition station, the director of the agricultural station that Yunli frequented, not only Feng Yisong, but even Feng Jiaqi also sent a greeting text message, although it was a group message, but it somewhat surprised Yunli.
In the chat group in the class, a large number of chat messages have been accumulated, and Yunli can't find where he started, so he has to jump and watch, in addition to blessings, what everyone talks about the most is graduation and finding a job. They are already seniors this year, and when they go back from winter break, it will be the last semester of their four-year college career.
In fact, all the professional courses have been completed in the first three years, and the fourth year is a buffer period for students to step from campus to society. In addition to completing the graduation thesis, everyone also has to work hard for the upcoming society, listen to lectures, find internships, take the postgraduate civil service examination, participate in various job fairs, and some students will be accompanied by three or two, or travel alone to go on a long trip, which can be regarded as an end to their student career.
One of Yunli's roommates plans to start a ride after the Spring Festival, parading around the entire southern border of the motherland, and maybe passing through Luzhen. He had talked to Yunli about this plan before, and this time he also sent a few photos ready to be sent, saying that he wanted to come and see Xiaolushan, Yunli was naturally very welcome, and replied with the words "waiting".
In the chat group, many people mentioned themselves, asked about the current situation, and jokingly said that they had really become a mountain farmer and went to the immortal. In fact, with the current communication conditions, even if you are in a remote corner, it is not difficult to know the current situation of a person, Yunli often contacts everyone, but due to the limitations of the environment, he rarely shows up to speak.
At the beginning, Pan Jing and Jiang Wenfeng were very surprised and envious when they knew that Yunli had finished the professional course in only two years, and they regarded Yunli as a genius, and Jiang Wenfeng regarded him as the biggest opponent and the target to surpass. What they don't know is that in the first two years of college, in addition to completing the education major course, Yunli also completed a degree in journalism and communication.
Having completed the entire course of two undergraduate degrees in just two years, such a person, no matter what school he is in, is a genius among geniuses and a focus among the focuses.
After completing two degrees, Yunli originally wanted to try another science and engineering degree, but at that time, the college was cooperating with a world-famous university in the United Kingdom to provide a full scholarship to study abroad, so Yunli did not continue to study for a third degree, but applied for this study abroad opportunity.
Due to some reasons, he didn't go in the end, and the school provided another opportunity to go abroad, as well as the option of Baoyan, but he didn't accept it, but came to Luzhen alone and became a volunteer teacher. After that, even the major was given up and changed to farming, which made everyone feel speechless.
