After everyone arrived, everyone ate desserts and fruits while chatting about home-cooked things.
After the old lady inquired about Dai Xianghan's living and working conditions here in detail, Xu Wenyan quickly answered and asked about Jin Dazhong, turning everyone's focus to Dazhong. She didn't think Ma Long was dressed like a wealthy person.
People with money and status tried to suppress Ma Long by asking Jin Dazhong all kinds of questions.
"Dazhong, after you graduate with your master's degree next year, will you stay in the United States or return to China?"
When Jin Dazhong heard this, he understood that Aunt Xu was showing off for him. He cheered up and replied loudly: "Our instructor hopes that I can stay in the United States to continue my development, and the school will also arrange positions for me. But I am a Chinese, so I still hope
If I succeed in my studies, I can repay the country, and my father has arranged everything in school. I want to bring all the knowledge I learned abroad to China!"
His righteous and awe-inspiring words made everyone here nod secretly. This is how Chinese people should be! Even Ma Long's view of him has changed a lot, and he wonders, could he actually be a good person?
The old lady also nodded and said: "Yes, it's hard for you to have such thoughts. However, although foreign knowledge is good, we cannot ignore our Chinese culture."
Luo Mei on the side suddenly said: "Brother Jin, I remember seeing you write on a foreign blog that you study abroad for gold, so that you can go back to the university in China to pick up girls..."
Jin Dazhong's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly said: "You must have recognized the wrong person! That's not me! There are all kinds of people on the Internet, and they like to speak randomly in other people's names!"
Luo Mei wanted to ask again, but was stared back by her mother's stern gaze. She made a face at Jin Dazhong and shut her mouth.
Jin Dazhong was so scared that cold sweat broke out on his back. He had previously answered questions from some friends on a foreign blog. Someone asked him why he came to the American school, so he just wrote a few words casually. Of course, he was speaking from the bottom of his heart. Unexpectedly, he was asked by this Xiaoni
Zi noticed that the tweets were all in English, which didn’t bother Luo Mei, who was already a senior majoring in English. He glanced at Dai Xianghan secretly again and felt relieved when he saw that there was nothing unusual about her.
Xu Wenyan wanted to improve Jin Dazhong, but was almost disturbed by her daughter. She threw the conflict on Ma Long again and deliberately asked: "Xiao Ma, what do you do? Which university did you graduate from?" Based on her opinion,
Judging from his many years of teaching experience, Ma Long does not seem to be a highly educated person.
Dai Xianghan, who was sitting there, felt nervous when she heard this question. She was worried about being asked this question before, because her family is full of high-level intellectuals, and the most despised people are those without academic qualifications. Originally, she wanted Ma Long to lie.
He falsely reported his academic qualifications and job, but after several contacts, he found that Ma Long is a proud person and would never falsify his academic qualifications and work for such trivial matters.
Sure enough, Ma Long replied calmly: "No one may know the university I went to. It was an ordinary three-year university. Now I am working as a janitor at Nanhai University."
As soon as these words came out, the female generals of the Xu family present were all shocked. Even Xu Wenyan did not expect that Ma Long was actually a guard. She glanced at Dai Xianghan in surprise and said to herself that this girl has water in her head. She should not leave it to foreign students.
, and found a guard to take her home. He looked at his sister Xu Wenxiu and frowned slightly.
Taking this opportunity, Xu Wenyan quickly drew a line between her niece and him, saying: "Our Xianghan graduated from a prestigious university and is now a teacher at a prestigious university. We cannot just randomly find someone with an improper profession."
Jin Dazhong originally wanted to find an opportunity to reveal Ma Long's career. Since the other party admitted it, he would not miss this opportunity to be sarcastic: "I can tell my father that I will let you go to our famous school in Beijing to check the gate. How about that?"
Give you some money, it will be much better than here."
Xu Wenyan smiled and said: "Why do you still look after the gate when you arrive in the capital? Your father has such great power, so arrange a job looking after the warehouse."
"Swallow!" The old lady was very dissatisfied with her second daughter's words, but Ma Long's career really made her unhappy. Then she said to Ma Long, "Young people should learn more knowledge. You can't
Watch the gate for the rest of your life!"
Ma Long said with a smile: "Isn't there a saying that the only person who can do well is to be the top scholar? I think there is nothing shameful in being a university janitor and relying on one's own efforts. The safety and property of the entire school are in our hands, but I feel that the responsibility is heavy.
I don’t dare to be negligent for a day.” What Ma Long said was neither humble nor arrogant, but it actually made the old lady look at him with admiration.
Jin Dazhong curled his lips in disdain, "If something really happened, you guys guarding the gate wouldn't be the first to run away. If you had that ability, why would you need the police?"
Ma Long tilted his head and whispered in his ear: "If I didn't have this ability, how could I outrun your car?"
"You!" Jin Dazhong choked for words. Recalling the competition just now, he felt angry. How could this brand-new car have a tire puncture during the competition?
"It's better to read more books and learn something. It will be good for you in the future." The old lady said again.
Ma Long accepted it humbly, "I also like reading. I believe in applying what I have learned, and I am studying hard now."
Now Ma Long is indeed working hard to learn the art of cultivation.
"Then what are you studying?" Luo Mei asked.
Ma Long thought for a while and replied: "Probably it is knowledge that few people learn or can learn well?" Ma Long said in his heart that there should be few people who know how to practice cultivation.
When the old lady heard this, she became interested and asked: "Let me tell you what it is specifically. I think as long as it is knowledge, there is no distinction between popular and unpopular. Which one are you in?"
These words really stopped Ma Long from asking. He couldn't answer the question about how to cultivate immortality through practice. If he said these words, he would be dismissed as a lunatic.
Seeing that Ma Long couldn't answer, Xu Wenyan sneered: "What can you do that others can't learn? You have such a loud tone for a guard. I think you are talking nonsense."
Dai Xianghan said for Ma Long: "Brother Ma is very popular in school and is a star in the school. He can lift a barbell weighing 400 kilograms!"
"Four hundred pounds?" Jin Dazhong snorted coldly, "Just him? That's about forty pounds!"
"Let's try it later!" Luo Mei interrupted.
At this time, the door to the room was pushed open, and a waitress came in and asked: "Can the food be served now?"
Everyone looked at the time and before they knew it, it was already eleven o'clock noon.
The old lady said: "It's not too early, let's serve the food!"
The waiter responded, closed the door and went out.
Dai Xianghan's aunt Xu Wenjun suddenly stood up, took out something from a plastic bag behind the chair, and said: "This is the American wild ginseng I brought back from the United States. It costs one tael for more than one thousand meters. I heard it is a big one."
Tonify, let them stew this into a soup later, give it to mom to drink, it will replenish your body and prolong your life."
"Oh, it's so expensive. Let me see first. If it were converted into the price here, it would cost 10,000 yuan. I have to see it!"
The old lady took the plastic bag and took out a section of ginseng. It was completely black and about the size of a person's palm. It looked a few years old and looked like an individual ginseng fruit. The concave and convex surface of the ginseng seemed to have the face of a baby.
I don't know if this is a natural formation or if it was carved by the merchants themselves.
The old lady took the ginseng and nodded, "It's such a good thing. No wonder it's so expensive. I've never seen this variety before, so I don't know how to best eat it."
Ma Long was also attracted by this section of ginseng, because after the ginseng was taken out, the whole room smelled of medicinal herbs. Moreover, Ma Long seemed to feel a slight fluctuation of special aura from the ginseng, which was not like fairy energy.
, it’s an indescribable weird feeling.
He wanted to get closer and smell it, or even touch it, but he didn't know how to speak. It suddenly occurred to him that he had the ability of "Qi Discrimination", so he could give it a try.
Ma Long secretly recited a mantra and activated the "Qi Discrimination Technique". Immediately, breaths from all directions rushed into his nostrils. In this small room, the smell of American wild ginseng was the strongest. At this smell, Ma Long was surprised.
, the smell entered Ma Long's nostrils, directly hit the Dantian in the body, and almost forced out the fairy energy inside. Ma Long felt his whole body stiffen, sensed the danger, left and held his breath, a thought flashed in his mind: This ginseng
poisonous!
The most exquisite thing about the ability of "Qi Discrimination" is the word "discrimination". Not only can it distinguish various smells, but it can also accurately determine which smell is beneficial to the human body and which smell is harmful to the human body. With this ability,
The level of Ma Long's cooking has greatly improved. He can cook mouth-watering delicacies with his eyes closed. It is precisely through this ability that he can distinguish smells and match various ingredients and heat. In the same way, harmful gases are produced, and through this ability,
can be avoided or suppressed.
This is Ma Long's recent research on this ability. Today is the first time he encountered the induction of "poisonous gas". Many poisonous gases are odorless. Even if they are odorous, when people smell it and react, their bodies have already been harmed.
However, the "Qi Discrimination Technique" can help Ma Long improve his reaction speed and mental sensitivity. He can react immediately to even a little bit of damage. Today's smell rushed directly to the "Dan Tian" in the brain. It can be seen that this ginseng
It is highly toxic. People will not experience any abnormality while slowly taking it.
Ma Long felt the danger, and the poisonous gas had just hit the Dantian in his brain, so his face turned pale and his body felt very uncomfortable.
Dai Xianghan, who was attentive on the side, saw Ma Long and thought that Ma Long was unhappy about his career and diploma, so he asked in a low voice: "Are you okay?"
Ma Long calmed down, and regardless of what everyone thought, he opened his mouth and said, "This thing is poisonous!"
