Shou Shan and Zhou Ping also came the next day. It seemed like they had made an appointment. Old Man Zhu and Monk Bo actually came as well. These two old men were also cunning. They knew that there was nothing good to eat when they came, so they didn't come often. Even if they came, they weren't willing to stay for a meal.
Zhou Ping and Fu Xia went down to prepare the dishes, leaving Li He to listen to the old men chatter.
The sparse sound of firecrackers could be heard from outside. Old Zhu frowned and said, "It's so annoying. The firecrackers are set off endlessly. They're set off for childbirth, for marriages, and even for the opening of some stores and restaurants. I'm going deaf!"
Li He replied, "Hasn't it been like this since ancient times? It's very normal to set off firecrackers."
Shou Shan replied, "That's true since ancient times. It's just that in the past, the capital only set off fireworks during the Spring Festival. There's never been a habit of setting off fireworks during funerals, weddings, or even grand openings."
Li He replied, "In my hometown, we set off firecrackers during weddings, funerals, and the Spring Festival. It's very normal."
Monk Bo said with a smile, "You're too young, and the books won't mention these customs. In the past, this was the custom of the people of Xiangnan. Of course, the people of Ganxi also liked to set it off. Basically, it was in these two places. Whenever there was a joyous occasion, the sky would be filled with fireworks and firecrackers. Later on, from Ceng Guofan to Zuo Zongtang, all the Xiang soldiers and Xiangnan people entered the capital. Naturally, the habit of setting off firecrackers came with them. If they didn't hear something, they wouldn't feel lively at all. After the founding of the People's Republic, there was no need to mention the number of people from Xiangnan and Jiangxi. Now, look, everyone is used to it. Not only do they set off firecrackers during the Spring Festival, but they also set off during weddings and funerals. "
Li He replied, "This is called changing customs."
Zhou Ping and Fu Xia filled the table with dishes.
Li He took out two bottles of Maotai and poured some wine for Elder Zhu. However, Elder Zhu declined and said, "You guys drink. My body hasn't been good recently, so I can't drink anymore. I'll live one more day at a time."
Monk Bo replied, "His liver is damaged, so he can't drink anymore."
Old Zhu said, "What do you mean my liver is damaged? It's just cirrhosis!"
Monk Bo replied, "Isn't that the same?"
Shou Shan and his daughter left after dinner.
Old Zhu looked at Fu Xia and smiled as he said, "Daughter, can you help me buy some medicine? I'm afraid that I won't be able to buy it during the New Year, so I can't stop eating."
Fu Xia didn't take the money from Old Man Zhu. She smiled and said, "Uncle, how much money is that? Just give me the prescription."
Then, he casually wiped the table and left.
Old Zhu said to Li He, "What are you waiting for? Go and open the door. I've already helped you become the bad guy."
After Li He locked the door, he took the two old men to the basement.
Other than He Fang and a few old men, no one else knew about the secret of the basement. It wasn't that Li He didn't trust Fu Xia, but he instinctively felt that the fewer people who knew, the better.
In the basement, Old Man Zhu first opened the box containing the jade artifacts and placed the three jade artifacts in his pocket inside.
Monk Bo also took out two books from his pocket and placed them on the bookshelf.
Old Zhu said, "It's a pity to leave so many things here with you." [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↑ Say △ Net
】
Li He asked, "Then where should I put them?"
"Of course the Forbidden City!" Old Zhu said matter-of-factly.
Li He said, "Then why do you still need to help me collect them? Just help the Forbidden City collect them."
After Old Man Lee left, Li He asked Old Zhu and Monk Bo to help him see if there were any good things outside and help him collect them. The two old men were usually eager to hunt, but their pockets were empty, so they could only help Li He with his collection. At least they could satisfy their eye cravings.
Old Zhu harrumphed unhappily.
The Forbidden City had limited funds, and if they wanted to collect them, they would specially look for the best ones. If they randomly collected them, the pitiful amount of funds they had wouldn't be enough.
This gave Li He and the others an opportunity.
After the basement was tidied up, the two old men familiarly found the money jar and rolled up a few stacks of newspaper.
The two old men drank tea for a while, and soon, Fu Xia came back with medicine.
Before leaving, Old Zhu didn't forget to say, "I've collected a lot of furniture, and they're all at my place. When you have time, go and pull them over. I don't have the energy to send them over."
Li He nodded, "I'll get Little Wei to go and pull them over later."
He went to find Little Wei and Feng Lei.
Little Wei said, "Brother Lubo has a big car, so why would he need a tricycle?"
Li He hit him on the head, "There's only a few pieces of furniture, and it's not snowing, so two tricycles will be back. Bring a few more people and wear gloves. Hurry up and go."
At dinnertime, Little Wei and the others returned on two tricycles, looking very excited. It was as if they had made a major discovery.
They shouted, "So the old monk is the Abbot!"
Li He said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."
Feng Lei said, "I didn't expect Master Bo to be the abbot of the temple. We didn't know that before."
Li He hadn't heard the two old men mention it before, and he didn't expect that he would suddenly become an abbot again.
Everyone was changing, and everything was changing.
Even Little Wei and Feng Shuiliu, the two young children, had become more mature, and they had changed from young children to smart people.
Li He felt that he was the only one who hadn't changed.
How did he become a bystander of this world?
Fu Xia saw that Li He was in a daze, and she smiled, "I'll change the tea leaves for you?"
Li He didn't say anything, which was a tacit agreement.
Fu Xia had also changed a lot. Her shoulder-length hair was neatly draped behind her, and she spoke with a smile. She was pertinent and considerate, and she didn't lose her ability.
The environment could change and train a person the most.
Fu Xia said, "Brother, I have something to discuss with you."
"Speak."
"I want to go home."
"Home? Which home?"
"I haven't gone back to my parents' side for seven or eight years," Fu Xia said in a low voice.
"Just go back, you don't have to discuss this with me."
"Okay." Fu Xia only asked Li He's opinion out of habit, "Then I'll go back after you leave."
"No need, you can go back. It's good for me to be alone without you."
As soon as Fu Xia thought of going home, she couldn't hold back her emotions. The next day, she took the things that she had bought a long time ago, took a taxi, and went home early in the morning.
It was still that familiar place. Many times when she passed by, she couldn't help but want to go in and take a look.
She got out of the taxi with big and small bags, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath before walking into the familiar courtyard.
Some people with sharp eyes saw Fu Xia and felt that her eyebrows were very familiar, but they couldn't remember who this beautiful woman was.
This was a group residence, and her house only had a small room. The door was a kitchen made of asbestos tiles.
A man wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket was sharpening a kitchen knife on a whetstone at the door. As he sharpened it, he poured water on the knife. After sharpening it for a while, he used his finger to gently scrape the blade, and squinted his eyes to look at the blade.
Fu Xia stared blankly for a while before she mustered up the courage to call out, "Dad."
The man raised his head to look at Fu Xia, and just as he was about to smile, he suddenly closed his mouth and lowered his head to continue sharpening the knife.
"Hey, I say, you're addicted to sharpening a kitchen knife. I need it urgently. Hurry up." A woman came out with a washbasin and scolded the man.
