(4,000 words)
Linda greeted Da'an Xiaoru, "Hello, my name is Linda, you can call me Linda." ”
Xiaoru: "Sister Linda, my name is Xiaoru......"
"Xiaoru, you are so beautiful." Linda touched the little girl's head.
Xiao Ru smiled embarrassedly.
Linda shifted her gaze to Da'an, "You're an older brother?" ”
Daan said proudly: "That's right! ”
"And what's your name?"
"Luo Ming'an, it's good if you call me Da'an."
Linda didn't hesitate to compliment: "You're such a handsome boy." ”
Da An smiled innocently, "It's okay, it's okay......"
Shen Ning: "......"
Shen Dong: "......"
Boy, can you be modest?
Linda looked up and laughed heartily.
Xibao saw that his brothers and sisters had said hello, and he was left alone, so he introduced himself impatiently, and said in a milky voice: "Sister, my name is Luo Mingxi, and I am also a handsome boy......"
Linda couldn't cry or laugh, hugged the little guy and kissed it, "You are so cute, how old are you?" ”
Xibao raised three little fingers.
Shen Dong hugged Xibao up, "Little guy, uncle hasn't seen you for a long time." ”
Xibao hadn't seen Shen Dong a few times throughout the year, and he often felt strange, and looked at him with a frown at the moment.
Shen Dong smiled: "Don't you know your uncle?" ”
Xibao said in a milky voice: "It seems to know." ”
"Do you seem to know?" Shen Dong kissed Xibao's little face, "Do you want to eat cookies, my uncle brought back a lot." ”
"Yes." Hee-po shouted louder than anyone else.
Da'an said: "You little gluttonous cat, just forget what your uncle gives you food, if a stranger gives you food, you will follow it, and you will be finished!" ”
Hee-po pursed his lips.
Xiaoru asked gently: "Strange uncle and aunt gave you sugar cookies to eat, what do you want to say?" ”
Xibao said: "If you don't eat it, my parents, brothers and sisters will buy it for me." ”
Da An Xiaoru nodded with satisfaction.
Shen Ning looked at the children with a smile and said to Shen Dong: "Xiaodong, you help take a look at the children, I'll go grocery shopping now." ”
"Oh, but what about Sister Yu?" Shen Dong didn't see Yu Xijuan as soon as he came, and felt a little strange.
"Her father is sick and has been staying in the countryside to take care of it!"
"What's the disease? Is it serious? ”
"When you're old, you'll have problems of one kind or another."
"I'll have time to take a look at the Shanyang Brigade." Shen Dong said.
He studied medicine, studied for many years, and now is studying for graduate school, and there are a lot of clinical practices, and he has achieved success early, and it is not difficult for him to see a doctor.
"It's done!"
Linda saw Shen Ning carrying a bamboo basket and preparing to go out, so she proposed to go with Shen Ning.
She came here to learn more about this place and see how the people live here.
Shen Ning did not refuse.
Through chatting along the way, Shen Ning learned that Linda came here to find relatives.
Linda said fluently in Chinese: "My father was arrested by the national army before the founding of the People's Republic of China, nine deaths, and then worked hard to cross the Dagang District, until later to develop in country M, but also lost contact with the mainland, I don't know if my relatives are still there, I said to come to China as an exchange student, he is very supportive of me, and I hope I can help him find his ancestors." ”
Shen Ning listened quietly, "So you and my brother came here mainly to find relatives, but you really aren't...... My brother's girlfriend? ”
She thought that her brother was only embarrassed to admit it because he was shy!
Linda laughed, "Well...... I think Shen Dong is a very upright boy...... Well, it's also a good choice to fall in love. ”
Shen Ning knows that Linda has lived in country M since she was a child, and foreign countries advocate a free and open personality, and she is also open to love, so she is afraid that she will conflict with the traditional culture that Xiaodong has been in contact with since childhood.
She still knows her brother.
Integrity, but also conservative.
Linda looked at Shen Ning seriously and said: "Miss Shen Ning, I only know that my father used to live in this province, but where is the specific, I don't know, I asked Shen Dong, where is Lianhua County, he said that he can't find it on the map, he doesn't know, I think over the decades, many place names have changed, it is very difficult to find, I can only wait for my father to come to Huaguo in person to know, but I still want to try, give him a surprise." ”
"Lianhua County?" Shen Ning thought about it carefully, and really didn't have any impression, "It's okay, I'll ask my lover when I go back, he has traveled from south to north, and he knows a lot of places, maybe he knows some!" ”
"It would be great if he could have known."
The two went to the farmers' market to buy vegetables, in fact, there are many vegetable stalls outside, and the prices of vegetables there are cheaper, Shen Ning often looks at the vegetable stalls, and when she was picking radishes, Linda was very curious about the surrounding environment, and said to Shen Ning, and went shopping by herself.
Shen Ning didn't stop her, she was sweating, are foreign girls doing their own thing?
Linda came out with a camera, walking around and taking pictures along the way.
She was dressed differently from the people around her, wearing slim jeans, a short brown cotton shirt, a knitted baker's hat, and a pair of leather boots on her feet.
She walked around, but still met the ruffian, the ruffian had never seen such a girl, touched her chin, wanted to eat Linda's tofu, Linda had a hot temper, kicked into the other party's vital point, and grinned in pain, "Catch this stinky girl, catch her ......"
The other brothers tried to arrest Linda, but Linda saw that there were many people, turned around and ran, but she was still caught up.
Luo Zheng and Zhu Jiedong happened to pass by and saw two ruffians entangled with a girl, so they went over and beat the two ruffians without seeing it.
Linda cut her hair and thanked them, "Thank you for your help......"
Luo Zheng looked at Linda, "You're not from here, are you?" ”
Looking at each other's clothes and conversation, they are either born into rich and noble families, or they are foreigners.
"Yes, I'm from country M, I'm studying here, I'm here with a friend today, hello, I'll introduce myself first, my name is Linda......"
"It turned out to be a fake foreign devil...... Zhu Jiedong joked coldly.
Linda immediately lowered her face and said solemnly: "This gentleman, I also have Chinese blood in my body, but my father had to leave this country for some special reasons, you can't be prejudiced against us Chinese." ”
Luo Zheng and Zhu Jiedong glanced at each other, Luo Zheng said calmly: "No prejudice, welcome home, I hope you overseas Chinese can do more for the development of the motherland, grateful!" ”163
Linda shrugged and said: "Of course, my father has decided to invest in China next year, in fact, he is mainly here to find relatives, and I am just exploring the way for him now." ”
Luo Zheng and Zhu Jiedong looked shocked.
Investment?
This seems to be the words that only a capitalist lady can say!
Zhu Jiedong asked directly and clearly: "Your father is a big capitalist?" ”
Linda, "the one who opened the factory." ”
Luo Zheng kindly reminded: "This comrade, there is a saying in our country that wealth is not leaked, I hope you will be cautious in your words and deeds, so as not to be targeted by bad people and cause unnecessary trouble." ”
Linda looked at the tall and handsome man in front of her, and smiled slightly: "Thank you for reminding me, I remember, I don't know what your name is?" What should I call you? ”
Although it was only the first time they met, Linda felt that the man in front of her was really good, not only tall and handsome, skilled, very manly, but also full of chivalrous spirit.
Before Luo Zheng could answer, Zhu Jiedong said: "This female comrade, my brother already has a family, so it is inconvenient to get too close to a female comrade......
It is said that the women of country M are enthusiastic and unrestrained, and Zhu Jiedong feels that as a brother, he still has the obligation to help his brother block the peach blossoms.
"Family? Does it mean that there is a wife? Linda wondered.
Luo Zheng nodded, "Yes." ”
They all had something to do, so they left first.
Linda kept looking at them, and then slowly withdrew her gaze and returned to find Shen Ning.
Shen Ning had already bought the vegetables, looked for her nearby, saw Linda walking back, hurriedly trotted over and said, "Miss Linda, you are not familiar with life here, but don't walk around, it will be terrible to meet bad people." ”
Linda said: "I really said it, I met the bad guy just now." ”
"Huh?"
"But two gentlemen helped me out."
Shen Ning breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, it's good that there is no danger, let's go back quickly!" ”
"Okay." Linda looked around, wanting to see him again.
The two went home, Shen Dong was playing chess with Da'an, and Xiaoru took Xibao to build blocks.
Seeing them coming back, Shen Dong immediately greeted them, "Sister, I'll help you." ”
"No, Linda was bullied by a ruffian on the street just now, you comfort and comfort people." After Shen Ning finished speaking, she carried the vegetable basket into the kitchen, and Shen Dong hurriedly asked Linda about the situation, "How is it?" Have you ever been bullied? ”
"No......" Linda said a little absent-mindedly: "There are two kind gentlemen who helped me, and one of them also said to me, I hope that those of us overseas Chinese can do our part for the development of the motherland, and I find that everyone in this country is very concerned about the development of the country......"
As he spoke, the man's upright appearance couldn't help but appear in his mind.
The sea of people is vast, and the water meets.
Linda felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
Shen Dong poured Linda a glass of water and said: "The road of our development is tortuous, but the future is bright, as long as we are given a fulcrum, we will pry up the whole earth." ”
Linda couldn't help but smile, "You can always say a set of truths." ”
Da'an ran over and asked, "Uncle, how did you pry up the whole earth?" ”
Shen Dong said with a smile: "This is a famous saying by the ancient Greek physicist Archimedes, which talks about the principle of leverage, as long as there is a fulcrum with enough support force and a lever long enough, it is possible for us to pry up any object." ”
As he spoke, he gave a demonstration to the studious Da'an, took a ruler, and pried up a book.
Daan blinked, "Can that really pry up the earth?" Our planet is a big ......"
When he was in class, the nature teacher taught him.
Shen Dong explained to Da'an with a smile: "This principle cannot be applied to the earth, because the earth is moving, the earth is constantly rotating and revolving, and in the universe we can't find a relatively fixed fulcrum that is enough to support the weight of the earth, so we can't pry the earth." ”
Daan scratched his head, "It's so complicated." ”
Shen Dong rubbed Da'an's head, "You will also be in junior high school soon, and there will be a teacher to teach you when the time comes, these are all textbook knowledge." ”
Da'an: "I really want to be like Brother Qi Yao, and go to college all of a sudden." ”
Shen Dong said seriously to Da'an: "The meal must be eaten one bite at a time, the road must be taken step by step, and learning is the most urgent, you know?" ”
Da An nodded as if he didn't understand.
Linda propped her chin and watched Shen Dong reason with the child like an old pedant, and inexplicably felt very happy.
What a nerd!
Linda got up and went to the kitchen to help Shen Ning, "Your children are smart, cute, and very studious, and they live in a very loving and relaxed family. ”
Shen Ning smiled lightly and washed the bean sprouts for her, "I want them to be happy more than studying." ”
Linda said: "But learning must bring pain, because learning itself is against human nature. ”
Shen Ning was stunned, and glanced at Linda in a daze, Linda smiled kindly, "I have a certain amount of research in anthropology, and I found that students in your country are extremely eager for knowledge and crazy learning, which I am ashamed of." ”
Shen Ning: "Because they have been suppressed for too long, they desperately want to change their fate, and reading is the only way for them to cross the class. ”
Linda nodded in understanding.
She saw the devastation of the country, but also the hope of the country thriving.
As long as the spirit does not die, one day, it will be on par with the world's powerhouses.
Her father had told her so.
Linda said to Shen Ning: "Before I came, my first choice was not this country, it was my father who gave me advice, he wanted me to understand the culture of this country, and its history, only by deeply understanding what it has experienced, can I understand it more objectively." ”
"Your father must have been a man of wisdom." Shen Ning said.
Linda: "Yes, I have a lot of respect for him, he's my spiritual leader. ”
"And what do you think of our country now?"
Linda looked out the window at the sky, "It's a sleeping lion, I want to find my roots here, to feel what my ancestors have passed down to me in my blood." ”
After working for a long time, a meal was pounded out by Shen Ning.
A table of fragrant meals, including steamed fish, pot-wrapped meat, stir-fried bean sprouts, stir-fried cauliflower, and seaweed soup......
Linda likes Chinese home-cooked food very much, and when she looks at the dishes on the table, she admires Shen Ning's hands-on ability.
Shen Dong saw that Luo Zheng hadn't come back for a long time, so he couldn't help asking, "Sister, why hasn't my brother-in-law come back yet?" ”
"He's busy with work and rarely comes back on time, so we'll eat first." Shen Ning served them rice and called the children to eat at the table.
Da'an brought Xibao to the table, and Xiaoru distributed chopsticks and spoons to everyone.
Shen Dong said: "Brother-in-law is very hard to start a business, right? ”
