Chapter 28 of the Year of Tranquility
Friday, September 18 Cloudy
I thought of bringing the milk bottle to my mother, and my sister said that she would bring me straw paper. So after eating in the morning, I took my textbook and baby bottle to my mother's store. They had just finished eating, so I ate some leftover noodles and went to Shenglong Supermarket to read. (My sister brought me a large stack of blank account pages, which could be embellished into a large thick book, and she also found me a large thick book bound on the advertising page.) I always see books and I get excited to see blank books. )
At dusk, the milk truck arrives. My mother ordered half a year's milk, 1 bottle of 1 catty. My mother often asked my father to bring it back for me to drink. It was fresh milk, and it needed to be boiled before drinking.
In my memory, my family's nursing years are not short. After work in the evening, my father would pick up the sheep (usually two) on a tricycle and ride them to the river not far from his home to graze them. The water and grass by the river are dense, once, a long snake was disturbed by the sheep, chased the sheep and ran, the father saw this and immediately picked up broken bricks, stones and threw at the snake, the snake hurriedly got into the grass and disappeared. When the sheep came back, my father milked several bottles of goat milk and waited for the neighbors to pick them up. The rest of the goat's milk was warmed by my father for my family to drink, but I rarely drank it at that time, for fear of gaining weight. Because my sisters counted me as the fattest, my skinny monkey-like brother always called me "old fat", which made me very distressed. Now that I think about it, I was only a little chubby at that time, and my sisters also counted me as the best complexion, and many people praised me for my ruddy and white complexion.
On the bookshelf of Shenglong Supermarket, I saw a book about the five elements of health. Regarding the five elements of health, I have written down a number of health regimen methods on my mobile phone notepad.
Everyone is born at a different time of day, and the health regimen is also different. I may be a person who was born with a weak spleen, and my stomach is indeed not good, and my stomach is not good, mainly because of spleen deficiency, and if my spleen and stomach are well regulated, I will not be sick.
The first article talks about everything will be good if the heart is good. The book says that you can use the palm-to-palm pressure method to treat heart disease, and often drink the five elements of longevity porridge, this method I wrote down in a big thick black notebook, this kind of five elements of longevity porridge has a significant curative effect, should be drunk often.
There is also a method of breast enlargement, I don't remember the dietary therapy method, but I remember that there is a posture that is very useful to practice: that is, use the kneeling position and fold your hands behind your back.
There is also a way for women to keep the lower part tight: that is, to contract the anus anytime and anywhere, and the results will be seen in three months.
There is also how to prevent people from getting old and yellow: turn your eyes 50 times a day, and then look at the green plants for a while, and often press an acupuncture point at the end of the eye, as if it is a silk bamboo sky, so that the eyesight will be improved, and the tail lines of the eyes will be greatly reduced.
There is also how to cure kidney disease: women rely on the kidney meridian and bladder meridian, the book introduces the production method of the five elements of kidney treasure wine, which is recorded in a black notebook, and can be drunk with black sesame seeds and black beans and barley to beat soy milk.
There are also ways to cure diabetes and how women can breathe like an orchid, but unfortunately I don't remember.
There is also the Twisting Snake Demon Dance, which is to twist the waist freely.
Where else have I seen that jumping rope is very effective in treating constipation. Twisting the waist and soaking the feet are good ways to maintain health.
In the evening, I went to church with my mother, and on the way we ate pork and leek dumplings. Every time I go to church with my mother, I always have to buy some snacks or food on the way, but I am not hungry, which is like shopping for lanterns on the night of the fifteenth day, eating small delicacies while shopping, I remember that I loved to eat sugar gourds and sugar cane at that time, and it seems that my eyes and mouth will be satisfied.
The church sings hymns all night, and in fact, the hymns are also very good, they are like a spring breeze smoothing the ripples and calming people's minds. If people don't have the money to get an education, then regular visits to church are a great opportunity to learn. There are teachers who teach you to sing, and pastors who explain the Bible to you, and they explain it in great detail, sentence by sentence. Some old ladies who could not read a single word went to church to study the Bible for a few years and were able to understand all the words in the Bible. If you don't have the money to buy books, don't worry, there are ready-made books for you to read.
Every time I pass by the choir and listen to the melodious singing, my heart is full of envy, and I want to be one of them.
On the way back, my mother bought two mooncakes, and the taste was acceptable. On the way, my mother said that I couldn't walk, so we sat on the stairs of a store for a while, and stayed in my mother's shop at night. I was going to skip dinner today, but I didn't expect to feel hungry at night, and I was eating dumplings and moon cakes, and it seems that this toothache will not get better for a while.
Saturday, September 19 Cloudy
In the morning, I ate the sweet potato gnocchi sent by my father, and rode back. I'm going to learn, and I can't delay like this any longer. I came back and ate a few small apples left over from the day before yesterday, and I had just eaten a big bowl of sweet potato gnocchi, and I ate so many apples, my mind became dizzy, so I went to sleep, and I slept for more than two hours, and I woke up at one or two o'clock. I couldn't waste time like this anymore, so I made a cup of strong tea to relieve my sleepiness.
Reading Li Yang's book "English is Refined in This Way", I felt inspired again. This is indeed a book worth reading regularly and can serve as a personal motivational guru.
At the beginning of the book, it is said that a Korean friend of the author, who has no knowledge of Chinese at all, locks himself in the house from morning to night and listens and recites for more than ten hours every day. Six months later, he memorized a Chinese book from beginning to end and became the darling of South Korean politics. 6 months changed the man's fate.
I also had two crazy experiences, that is, in the fourth grade of primary school and the first year of junior high school, I really showed more willpower than ordinary people, so my academic performance was also the first. Then I couldn't get the crazy spirit I had back then, and let my inferiority, despair, confusion and pain haunt me for many years, until today I have achieved nothing. In order for people to be successful, they need to be 100% dedicated. Since I was a child, I had ambitions to surpass others, but I didn't have the willpower to surpass others, so I achieved nothing. When I take out that spirit, I am realistically awake, and once I abandon it, I feel like my soul is wandering outside my body, not knowing what I am doing, and letting time pass by in vain.
In the book, it is said that Yin Mingyong, a self-examinee of Xinyang Foreign Language College, borrowed a set of Li Yang's "Good Drama Card" from his classmates, and in the cold winter vacation of 97, he listened and memorized 15~20 hours a day, and only went out three times during the 32-day winter vacation, "Almost all of the time was spent in my own cabin, and the table lamp, tea, books and tapes became my best companions." During this period, my life was very regular, I had breakfast at 7:30~8:00 in the morning, I should say dinner, I went to bed after dinner, I got up at 12 noon to have breakfast, and I started studying after the meal until the morning of the second day. ”
I can learn from this schedule, because there are many distractions during the day, and I always want to go out, so if I use it to study at night, I won't think about going out during the day.
After a month of such madness, the results are remarkable: "In terms of pronunciation, I am immensely proud. Because I don't think I have many opportunities to talk to foreign teachers, let alone go abroad, my pronunciation is like that of Americans, which is more natural and authentic than the English announcers of some TV stations, and often hits. Whether it is in the department, in the English club, in the Xinyang Normal College, in the Xinyang Agricultural College, in the 358 factory, in Zhengzhou, or in Henan University, when I lecture, give a speech and talk in English, others will immediately praise me for my good pronunciation and American flavor. In the two years that Yin Mingyong went to school, he had already started his part-time work experience.
Sometimes, it only takes 6 months to change one's fate, as in the case of Li Yang's Korean friend; In just 4 months, Li Yang spent 4 months reciting and retelling more than 10 original English books, a large number of level 4 exam questions and others in the Martyrs' Pavilion of Lanzhou University; In just two and a half months, Yu Minhong spent two and a half months listening and reciting a set of books called "New Concept English", and since then he can understand any English spoken by anyone...... Like me, instead of living in despair, pain, self-blame, and psychedelia for many years, it is better to sacrifice oneself once and use four months or half a year to change my fate. Since I have been prioritizing myself since I was a child, I should have a crazy spirit and strong perseverance that ordinary people do not have. There is still a month to go before production, and I should memorize "New Concept 3". Li Yang memorizes an average of two or three books a month, so I'll memorize this one, but I need to memorize it well. Because I once read a book that said that if you can memorize "New Concept 3", it is no problem to take the English level 4 exam. If I can master English, I will take Introduction to Literature, Accounting Major, and Chinese Medicine Adjustment in one go. All knowledge comes from memory, and memorization is the only magic weapon.
I want to put in crazy months to learn what I want to learn, and then I can devote myself to writing, and writing also requires dedication, and it also requires madness.
By then, I'll be finishing a novel in a few months, and I'm writing down my plans......
I was going to skip dinner tonight, not eat tomorrow morning, sleep until 12 noon and eat again, one meal a day. But at 5 o'clock in the evening, I felt hungry, so I went downstairs to get a bun to eat. Dad was cooking below, and I took half a bun upstairs to dip it in sesame sauce and ate it, and I didn't feel very hungry after eating. Continue to read my diary (from beginning to end), I heard my father call me to eat, so I went down to eat a steamed bun, a bowl of fried cabbage, a bowl of sweet potato porridge, I ate so swollen! I went upstairs to boil the bottle of water, I wanted to turn on the computer to practice for an hour, because the water was boiling, and wait for the water to boil and then practice, I was really afraid that the computer cable would be burned again, so I didn't dare to plug more things into the socket.
Today, I kept drinking tea and going to the toilet, and I felt that I had a smell on my body and was about to take a shower. In the future, I can practice typing in the evening at dawn, eat dinner after typing, take a bath after eating, apply my face, soak my feet, and then study until 6:00~7:00 tomorrow morning to sleep, because I have eaten at night, so I don't eat in the morning. Wait until 11 or 2 o'clock at noon to get up and then have lunch, after the meal, put on the face, practice words, memorize poems, enter the formal study at one point, you can go to bed at 6 o'clock in the morning, so that you can get up at 11 o'clock to exercise, practice words, memorize poems, apply noodles, and then eat.
At this time, the computer shows 18:55, I am going to type, I will wash my face and soak my feet for a while, and I will study until 6 o'clock tomorrow morning. My goal tonight is to finish reading the five lessons of the new concept, find out the unfamiliar words and copy the book, and start to focus on the new concept 3 tomorrow, I will memorize the new concept 3 and then look back at the new concept 2, I feel that it should be simple and easy, after all, it is a beginner thing, the new concept 3 is intermediate, and the new concept 4 is advanced.
After wiping the bath and applying the face, wash the changed clothes, then soak the feet, comb the hair, and sit down to watch two lessons of English after being busy, and feel a sound in the lower part of the lower abdomen, which is not the sound of the fetus's hands and feet moving, but similar to the empty sound of fish spitting foam. Why is there such a noise? The place where the sound is made should be the baby's head. It is likely that the fetus is deprived of oxygen and needs to open its mouth wide to breathe oxygen, this sound I seem to have heard before, I didn't pay much attention to it, but today I suddenly realized it. The baby's head is fixed in a lower position and cannot move, so I sit and press her, she is probably having trouble breathing. So I got up to boil water and drank the root of the banlan (my jaw hurts, and I have to buy medicine tomorrow, and I can't resist it). When I sat down and read the book again, I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen, and I quickly sat up straight, but the chair I was sitting on was still a little low.
There is still a month to give birth, and I am in a hurry to assault English, but my body does not allow it. I should keep my mind relaxed and exercise more. It seems that Assault English is no longer enough, and I should now strengthen my exercise, everything for the sake of a smooth life. The most time-consuming thing about English for me at the moment is that I don't know a lot of words (I haven't read English books for many years, and I almost forget the English words I knew when I was in school), and looking up the dictionary takes up a large part of my time. Since I can't sit, I'll just walk around or sit in a high seat, and I'll pass the words. This month, let's memorize level 4 vocabulary by yourself. I still get up early in the morning, finish the basic exercises, memorize English for a while, go down to eat, and after eating, I can go to the nearby Xinhua bookstore. I left the car in front of Shenglong Supermarket, and then went to Xinhua Bookstore to read a book, and I could read some new concept essays, which were reviewed by the teacher. When I was tired of standing, I sat down when I saw that there was a seat, and I went home at five or six o'clock. Go to bed early at night, because you stand for a long time during the day, so you sleep with your feet high at night.
I wanted to call my husband today, but the phone came out "the balance is insufficient, please recharge", I remember that there are still one or twenty yuan, why is the balance 0, and the arrears are 6.9 yuan, do you have to deduct the handling fee every month? That's it, I won't call, my husband is not very willing to answer my call, and we are more and more a little less speculative. Wait until October 12th, when I will top up and withdraw the money for production.
I wanted to wash diapers, but I soaked for a few days, but the rain sometimes fell and sometimes didn't fall, and the sun didn't come out. Those little padded jackets and little padded pants didn't dry, and even if the diapers were washed, there was no place to dry. At this time, the rain did not stop, and gradually became the climate, and the ground was already watery.
I wanted to start going crazy tonight and learn English from that self-examinee all night, but the sound of the fetus spitting out fish bubbles reminded me that I should be in a leisurely state for more than a month. I once heard my husband say that there was a woman there who often sat and played mahjong in the third trimester, which eventually led to stillbirth. I can't do that, this child is my great spiritual sustenance, and I should put her first in everything now.
Last night, I went to Dani's supermarket with my sister, and I saw a fair-skinned, long-curled eyelashes, slender figure, and long brown wavy hair woman also buying apples, and her beautiful hair and beautiful appearance attracted my attention. I thought she was definitely not married, at most in her early twenties. But there are two children, a man and a girl, one is seven or eight years old, and the other is six or seven years old, and they call at her mother. I was amazed and ashamed of myself. My appearance has aged rapidly over the years, the bags under my eyes are a little prominent, and my cheeks are a little sagging, and women really can't have mental pressure. A woman's aging is overnight, you look at the young woman, the young mother, the high-standing back, the fashionable dress, the white and tender skin, how enviable!
