Volume 5: Qingming Chapter 19: Epiphany
"Is it a good dream?" Jiang You drank the last sip of milk tea.
Fang Wensong lowered his head for a long time, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "It was a good dream."
"That's good."
Fang Wensong sighed, "It's getting late, I'm going back."
"Sit a little longer? Wait until the rain stops?"
"No," Fang Wensong shook his head, "Xiaohui's class is almost over."
"Bring your daughter to play next time."
"Okay, sure."
"You drew your daughter, right?" Jiang You walked into the store, passed by Fang Wensong, walked to the long table, picked up the postcard with the stamp, and raised the envelope to Fang Wensong. He asked, "When should I send it to you?"
Fang Wensong turned around and took a few steps forward. "It's my wife."
"I saw it was a little girl, and I thought..."
"When I was in school, I designed a cartoon character for her," he paused and asked, "How much is it? I'll transfer it to you via WeChat."
"Take it, take it, really."
"How can this be so embarrassing."
"Just a few pieces of paper, not worth much." Jiang You walked to the counter with the postcard. He pulled out a brown paper bag from the innermost part and put the postcard in it. "Consider it a gift from your daughter."
"Thank you then," Fang Wensong did not refuse. He picked up the two unwritten postcards on the table and put them in his bag. "Maybe in three years. Is that too long?"
"Okay, April?"
"Yes, in April."
"Then I'm leaving. See you next time," Fang Wensong walked out of the store. When he walked out and picked up his umbrella, he saw Jiang You also coming out. He said, "Don't go out. It's raining. Let's make an appointment next time."
"Okay, let's come over for crayfish next time. It's a deal."
"OK."
Jiang You stood on the steps and watched Fang Wensong walk to the gate of the yard with an umbrella and stop. A few seconds later, he pushed the door open, turned around, waved to Jiang You, and walked out.
The gate closed again.
"We opened in April, so it's time to take a break in May." Jiang You muttered to himself for a few words, then he also picked up his umbrella, walked out of the insect house, walked to the street, and walked to Guanghe Bookstore.
Open the door.
At first glance, I saw Jiang Mo lying on the lazy sofa playing with his mobile phone. Beside him was a plate of cut fruits and a cup of steaming milk.
Chen Nan turned her head and saw Jiang You.
Jiang You put the umbrella into the bucket at the door and walked in.
There were quite a lot of people in the store on Sunday afternoon .
After he greeted Chen Nan, he walked over to Jiang Mo and squatted down. He said softly, "Can you let me sit down?"
Jiang Mo stared at the screen intently, sliding and tapping his thumb quickly across the screen.
Jiang You looked around, picked up the milk, took a sip, then looked at Jiang Mo, who raised his head.
"You want to drink?"
"Stop bullying your son all the time," Chen Nan walked over.
"How dare I bully him? He's the one who bullied me," Jiang You put down the cup. He saw Xiao Liu come in and take over Chen Nan's position behind the counter. He reached out and touched Jiang You's hair. "Isn't it a coincidence that he came here yesterday for a blind date. The person he dated was someone I met last year."
"Have you ever been on a blind date?"
"Mr. Cai introduced her to me. She's his distant niece."
Chen Nan looked at Jiang You.
"Where is Yunyun?" Jiang You asked.
"He's doing his homework at home. Didn't you say that his wife and..." Chen Nan glanced at Jiang Mo, "happen to be together?"
"yes."
Jiang You stood up. He and Chen Nan walked to the corner and sat down.
"How many years has his wife been dead?" Chen Nan asked.
"Four years."
"It's about time to look for another one."
"He had a hard life. Both his mother and his wife were strong," Jiang You told Chen Nan the story of Fang Wensong and Gu Yao. "Old Cai's niece and his wife have some similarities in their eyes and eyebrows."
"Have you met his wife?"
“He showed me the pictures.”
"The two girls who rented your house are always working overtime. Recently, I haven't seen one of them for a long time."
"One changed jobs."
"If I had to go to work, I would definitely find a way to be lazy."
"That's not necessarily true. Our brains will automatically absorb and organize information, right?"
"so what?"
"It's just like a pyramid scheme. Once you go over and hear something, your brain will absorb it and organize it. Once it's organized, it means you've learned it and you've accepted it."
Jiang You looked at Chen Nan, "Look, it's very difficult for people to study after graduation. In college, a poor student who sleeps in class and hangs out in internet cafes after class can pass the exam by cramming, right?"
“Isn’t this different?”
"Almost the same, because even though the poor student himself didn't learn, his brain was still learning. So if you want to learn something, a particularly efficient way is to open the video, play it on loop, and then entertain yourself. For example, to lose weight, I don't need to exercise or diet, I just need to watch fitness and weight loss videos 24 hours a day. When my brain learns, it's like an epiphany, and I can become a thin person in an instant."
Chen Nan smiled and tapped his forehead with his finger, "You are the only one who has a lot of crooked ideas. I will continue to supervise your training tomorrow."
…
Lin Yu opened his mouth, gasping for breath, and opened his eyes.
He was still in the room with four walls. The numbers on the instrument screen were jumping.
He tried to sit up, but found that his limbs were too stiff, as if they were frozen, and he felt numb and painful when he moved. He moved his body, moving up little by little, until he sat up a little.
Cold sweat broke out in waves.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and Ji Xiaozhen, wearing a white coat, walked in with a tray, her hair still neatly tied behind her head.
" Teacher Ji." Lin Yu's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible.
"Are you awake?" Ji Xiaozhen walked over to him and looked at the data on the screen for a while. "How do you feel?"
“It’s very hard.”
"I will do one last check on you in a moment. I have asked someone from the mountain to come over."
"On the mountain?" Lin Yu was a little confused.
"Yes, he specializes in the power of the soul and is an expert in this area."
"So I still haven't found out the problem yet?" Lin Yu realized the problem from Ji Xiaozhen's words.
"Some of the data don't look normal," Ji Xiaozhen took out a syringe from the tray and opened a tube of injection.
"Your body has suffered some damage, don't worry, it's reversible," Ji Xiaozhen bent down and inserted the needle into the vein of his arm. The light blue liquid slowly entered his body. "This is 0.3% spiritual power liquid. There is no spiritual power in your body. After the injection, the spiritual power can stay in your body for a period of time, which is convenient for the next examination."
