Chapter 47 Duan Hongxuan shows his ability for the first time
Among the people in the room, except He Yuyu who was stupid, they didn't feel anything. The other three people all had their own thoughts.
Duan Hongxuan now feels through his mental power. Although he doesn't know what each person is thinking specifically, he can roughly judge their general thoughts by feeling their emotional changes.
I could clearly feel a change in the deaf old lady's mood just now, and I knew that the old lady had figured out what Yi Zhonghai wanted to do.
Duan Hongxuan thought in his heart that if the deaf old lady really cared about him and was afraid that he would suffer a loss because he did not understand what Yi Zhonghai was going to do, so he found an opportunity to clarify it for himself, then he would really care for the old lady until the end of his life and treat her as his own grandmother.
Treat her well and ensure that she lives for more than a hundred years.
If the deaf old lady continues to pretend to be deaf and mute and still puts Yi Zhonghai’s pension plan first, then I’m sorry!
I don’t have time to mess around with you, and you don’t treat me as one of your own, so I’ll just deal with you.
The three of them were just like this, each with their own little thoughts, chatting and laughing together with the silly He Yuyu.
While everyone was talking, a aunt came in carrying a large pot of potato chips fried with lard residue, "We are ready to eat, clear the table!"
He Yuyu cleared the table, and Duan Hongxuan went over to help the deaf old lady up from the recliner, and sat down next to the dining table.
Then everyone worked together to help, and the food was quickly put on the table.
"I was in a hurry today and didn't have much preparation. I had to do whatever I could while there was something in the house.
Don't be offended, little scholar, just make do with it!" The eldest mother pointed to a table of dishes and explained to Duan Hongxuan.
Duan Hongxuan looked at the dishes on the table. In addition to the casserole chicken he brought, Auntie's fried eggs, a large pot of potato slices fried with lard residue, and a green vegetable.
Porridge from Bangzi Noodles and steamed buns from Erhe Noodles.
Not counting the stewed casserole chicken, there are eggs on the table and vegetables stir-fried with lard residue, which are full of meat and fish. For an average family, it can be considered a rich meal.
Duan Hongxuan smiled and said to Auntie: "Auntie, you are both lard residue and eggs.
If this is just okay, wouldn’t it mean that other people would find it impossible to survive?
How dare I be offended by such a rich meal!
And auntie, don’t call me little scholar anymore. It sounds awkward, so just call me by my name!"
"Okay, okay! Move your chopsticks quickly, my old lady has been craving for the stewed chicken for a long time!" The deaf old lady stepped forward to stop the two of them from being polite.
"Okay! Use your chopsticks.
Look at my memory. I even brought a bottle of wine. Can Hongxuan drink? How about we two drink some?" The first man asked aloud.
"Then I'll have a drink with you, and I'll have a drink with you. Grandma, do you want to come too?"
"You drink it, but I won't mix it with you. I'll eat the chicken stewed by my sweet grandson right away."
Duan Hongxuan quickly picked up a piece of chicken leg meat and put it into the bowl of the deaf old lady. "Grandma, please try this piece of chicken leg. The meat is so stewed!"
"Okay, okay! My sweet grandson gave me some meat. I was happy to eat it. I'll try it now!
Stop caring about me and eat it yourself!" The deaf old lady was very happy today.
"Yu Yu, you should hurry up and eat. I'll have a drink with the uncle and aunt."
"Brother Hongxuan, don't drink too much, I can't carry you."
"If you can't, I'll just have a drink! Okay, eat quickly!"
At this time, the first man also poured three glasses of wine, then raised the wine glass in front of him, "Today Hongxuan comes to see the old lady. Yuyu has also been admitted to high school, and Hongxuan has been admitted to university. This is all worth it."
A happy thing.
I was in such a hurry today that I didn’t prepare anything good, so I just made do with it.
On Sunday in a few days, I will make arrangements according to the old lady’s arrangements and celebrate Yuyu and Hongxuan.
Come on, Hongxuan has a drink first. If you don’t want to drink in Yuyu, let’s just take a sip of your stick noodle porridge to show your appreciation.” At the end of the sentence, the first man made a little joke to He Yuyu.
Because Yi Zhonghai discovered that Duan Hongxuan took good care of He Yueyue, so in order to win Duan Hongxuan's favor, he became enthusiastic when facing He Yueyue in front of Duan Hongxuan.
In this day and age, the idea of favoring boys over girls is still quite serious.
On the one hand, it is due to habits that have been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years. On the other hand, there is also a very practical problem.
Take rural areas as an example. Rural areas now have a collective system. Everyone works together, and work points are calculated according to the labor force.
When a boy reaches the age of seven or eight, if he goes to work, his work points can be calculated as half of an adult's labor force, and he can barely support himself.
By the age of fifteen or sixteen, most people can be considered an adult.
Girls can't do that. When they grow up to seven or eight years old, they can only do work such as picking up cow dung and mowing grass. The maximum is 1/3 centimeter of an adult, which means they can't support themselves.
Even if they are adults, if an adult man is counted as ten centimeters per day, then most adult women will only be counted as eight work points.
It can be seen from this that after raising a boy until he is seven or eight years old, he can begin to make a positive contribution to the family.
You can raise a girl, and your contribution to the family will always be negative until you reach adulthood.
This is purely from an economic point of view, and this is how everyone thinks in this era.
As for doing housework, firstly, I think it is a woman’s job, and secondly, housework does not bring income to the family.
Moreover, if a woman gets married soon after she reaches adulthood, she will become someone else’s family.
Therefore, from a practical point of view, raising a girl from childhood is a constant investment for a family. Otherwise, why would everyone always say that girls are losers?
When raising a boy from an early age, starting from the age of seven or eight, there is basically no need to invest. As he grows older, he begins to reap benefits.
Boys are the ones who can support a family in the future and support a family.
Therefore, whether it is the influence of long-term feudal ideas or very real survival problems, the idea of preferring boys over girls has become very serious.
Duan Hongxuan, a soul from later generations, naturally does not have the thought of favoring boys over girls, but he has no choice but to face the reality.
In addition, He Yuyu was quite sensitive due to family reasons, so Duan Hongxuan deliberately took more care of her.
Duan Hongxuan heard the first man's words and quickly picked up the cup, "Thank you, first man.
I would also like to congratulate my grandma, grandpa and grandma on the way. May you be healthy and eat deliciously in the future!
Yu Yu went to high school and made progress in his studies, and he grew more and more beautiful."
"Haha, okay! I like hearing this. Come on, let's all take a sip together."
Because it was not a formal banquet, everyone did not finish the glass of wine in one sip, and each of them took a sip.
Then he put down his wine glass, and at the greeting of the uncle, he began to use chopsticks to eat.
Next, everyone picked up their chopsticks and went straight to the chicken casserole.
"Wow! This chicken smells delicious, and it tastes even better when you eat it. The meat will turn rotten after just a little chewing!"
"Well, it's delicious! This craftsmanship can match that of Shazhu! How does Hongxuanzu make it?"
Everyone was conquered by this pot of fragrant chicken.
"There are some medicinal materials in it, so this pot of stewed chicken can be regarded as a medicinal meal.
It is especially suitable for people with physical weakness, as well as middle-aged and elderly people to replenish their bodies."
"Hongxuan also knows herbal medicine. I heard people say that this herbal diet is not simple.
Which cook usually has a medicinal recipe in his hand? It’s like a precious thing, hiding it with all his strength." The first man asked.
"I know a little bit, it was taught by my previous master.
Medicinal diet is a little more troublesome, but it is no worse than dispensing medicine!
When dispensing medicine, he only considers the issue of curing the disease. He doesn't care if the medicine is bitter or sour.
When making medicinal meals, you not only have to consider how to prepare the medicinal ingredients? Who is it suitable for? You also have to consider the taste.
Just like today's pot of stewed chicken, not only must it be suitable for middle-aged and elderly people to replenish their health, but it must also be stewed to taste fragrant.
You can’t stew a pot of bitter chicken in the end, then you won’t be able to eat it!”
"Listen to what you say, it's really not simple! Hongxuan still has a master?" The first man was curious about Master Duan Hongxuan.
"My health was not good when I was a child. Due to a special opportunity, I became a disciple of an old Taoist priest who had returned to secular life and had excellent medical skills. He helped me regulate my body and also learned medical skills and some boxing and kicking skills."
Duan Hongxuan brought out the fabricated master again.
"Then where is your master now?"
"Master, he is too old and left a few years ago!"
"Alas! What a pity. But it is normal for this person to grow old, sick and die. Hongxuan, don't think too much about it."
"It doesn't matter, sir. The master is also a long-lived man. He was over 110 years old when he left. This is a happy event!"
Duan Hongxuan began to make up random things again, with the purpose of portraying this non-existent master as an outsider. So how bad could he be as a disciple?
"Oh, you're an incredible master!" The uncle was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Master, I have learned this medical skill very closely, so grandma, I will take care of you from now on. You will be fine when you are 100 years old and up, and you will still have a long time in the future!"
As soon as Duan Hongxuan said these words, he immediately calmed down several people except He Yuyu.
