Chapter 281 Upgrading and the end of the year (please subscribe)

In the next few days, in addition to studying through documentaries, Li Shi would also discuss issues with "Hong Mang Mang" from time to time.

At the end of the new year, Li Shi's request was quite special and relatively high. It was not smooth for his assistant Zhang Huijing to find someone. Fortunately, there were free teachers available for him, so he was not in a hurry.

As time entered February, Li Shi gradually slowed down his pace of study. Occasionally, he went to the supermarket and found that the supermarket had begun to sell lanterns, mismatched couplets and other new year products. Looking at those red things, for a moment, he felt that there was something wrong.

Such a hint of the new year.

He immediately took Shiwang and looked at the Eastern Lunar Calendar.

February 4th is the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, which is the beginning of spring. It is five days away from the Little New Year in the north and six days away from the Little New Year in the south.

"There are only eleven days until the Chinese New Year. The confinement period goes by so fast."

After returning home, Li Shi had a video chat with Chen Qiuye and Wang Yuelan to confirm the schedule during the Chinese New Year. Then he called his mother and told her that he would pick her up on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month and that they would be together in Tanzhou.

Celebrate the New Year in the house nearby.

I just finished the video call with my mother, and not long after, my assistant Zhang Huijing called me to report on the finishing work of the self-built house.

After hearing this, Li Shi said: "Okay, I will pay him a visit tomorrow after I return to Tanzhou. It's the end of the year. Let's have a meal and give me a little bonus."

Zhang Huijing immediately smiled and said loudly: "Thank you, boss!"

Yeah, very energetic.

At noon the next day, the two had a meal at the restaurant they used to frequent. Li Shi gave her five months' salary as a bonus to reward her hard work since joining the company.

Her monthly salary is less than 10,000 yuan, and her five-month salary is less than 50,000 yuan.

Seeing so much small money, Zhang Huijing stood up excitedly on the spot and kissed her husband.

It almost didn't scare Li Shi.

At about four o'clock in the morning that day, Li Shi finally watched the 100th episode of the "General History of China" documentary: The End of the Imperial System.

"Another new force of Yechang has quietly arisen."

"For two thousand years, many emperors have appeared in that eastern land...calling for the arrival of a new era."

I also finished the last episode.

Looking at the ending song and subtitles, Li Shi felt a little disappointed for a moment.

One hundred episodes of documentaries, carrying thousands of years of history, were displayed in front of him one by one like a magnificent painting.

At the moment it ended, he was somewhat in a trance.

After a while, Li Shi calmly opened the comment area and checked the comments of netizens on the last episode.

The one with the most likes was a famous quote from Gu Hongming.

There are also many comments on Xiangdong that express everyone’s emotion.

There are a lot of things to say, but generally speaking, it is not outside the scope of "taking history as a mirror".

He got up, moved his limbs, and walked east again.

Li Shi called up the study panel and "looked" at it, then turned his attention to the tablet computer again, clicked on the directory of the documentary, and mistakenly looked at the title of each episode in the directory, took out the study notebook again, and started to read one by one.

Mistaking memories:

"Chinese road, Chinese ancestors, the origin of agriculture, the origin of civilization, the era of states, the search for the Xia Dynasty, the rise and fall of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, the civilization of the Shang Dynasty, King Wu's defeat of the Shang Dynasties, the regency of Zhou Gong... The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Sino-Japanese War of 1898-1894, the Reform and geming, the end of the monarchy

."

As his physical attributes improve, his memory becomes better and better.

Based on the previous foundation, plus that time of studying with all his heart, looking at those titles and notes, he could mentally go through the timeline represented by each title and the major events that happened in the timeline.

It only takes more than an hour to walk there.

It was getting dark outside, and the light outside the house was gradually dimming.

Li Shi's gaze once again came to "The End of the Imperial System".

Putting it together in his notebook, the memories of that trip gave him the feeling that "a moment can change a lifetime."

I can’t recall a sentence I once read: The page I turned over in a history book can reveal their magnificent life.

At the same time, something touched my mind.

I called up the learning panel to check, and it was indeed upgraded. The study of Chinese history was promoted from the original (Introductory) to (Introductory+).

Studying for promotion is naturally not a happy thing, but unlike the previous excitement, that time, Li Shi's mood was particularly calm due to the "heavy" influence of history.

It's that kind of light happiness.

Isn't that a very strange experience?

He had never experienced it before and it felt good.

After studying the documentary "General History of China", Li Shi was completely relaxed after returning to the east. Although he continued to read "Outline of National History" written by Qian Mu and "General History of China written by Lu Simian" to strengthen and deepen his understanding of the general history of China.

Studying, but he greatly reduced the time he spent studying history.

I spend two to three hours every day reading historical works.

Do you want to increase the time for posting from the original one hour to two hours, one hour in the early morning and one hour in the morning?

The rest of the time, he spent drinking tea and chatting on WeChat, watching TV and chatting on QQ, and reading casual books and chatting on QQ.

Xianshu is naturally not an online novel.

Chatting on WeChat with Qiuye and Yuelan, chatting with Qiu Fubu and the recently added female netizen, "Hong Mangmang" who is 67% similar to the female star, Teacher Hong.

If he didn't consider anything else and just talked about it, Li Shi found that he had a special conversation with Teacher Hong, a mature woman in her forties.

The two chatted about everything from history to literature, and recently started discussing online novels.

"Is it possible that if he reads too many books, his mental age becomes older?"

Li Shi thought so.

He doesn't care that his mental age is getting older. Anyway, he is used to being older in everything.

When chatting with Teacher Hong, Li Shi simply thought that it would be nice and interesting to make a netizen who had a common topic and could be chatted with.

I didn't think much about anything else.

A few days later, it was February and August, the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the Little New Year in the north.

Although the weather is getting colder and colder, except for shopping malls and supermarkets selling New Year's goods, other places in the city have little sense of the New Year.

Sometimes Li Shi misses his childhood, when he lived in the countryside. Although his family had little money and lack of material resources, during the Chinese New Year, the adults used money to buy him new cheap clothes on the streets of the town and grinded soybeans for soy milk.

Make tofu, kill the head of the New Year pig, eat some butchered vegetables... He looks as happy as anything.

Are other children in the village the same?

Everyone gets together, eating lard residue at your house, and fried tofu at his house later, and then looking forward to double-digit New Year's money and candies at most, playing with pictures and burning dry straw in the fields.

Running all over the village.

"After Wu Cong went to college, moved to the city, or grew up, he didn't feel that the New Year was a good time. When the New Year came, he was afraid of people asking about his grades, work, and mistakes... He was very self-conscious, and he was afraid of people coming to collect debts, ugh.

."

Li Shi moved the prepared cigarettes and alcohol into the trunk of the Bentley, then went to the bank to withdraw cash, bought red envelopes at the supermarket, and then drove out of the city and headed straight to his hometown of Zhaoyang County on the highway.

When I go back, do I want to pick up my mother and come to Tanzhou to celebrate the New Year?

When I got to the town, I first went to my cousin's house to put away some cigarettes and wine, and then returned to the village.

I went back to the village and walked around the houses of the cousins ​​who had lent money to their families. The young ones kept tobacco and wine, and the older elders gave them New Year red envelopes. It wasn’t much, so I put them in one red envelope.

Two thousand dollars in cash.

He also made it very clear that he would take his mother to the city to celebrate the New Year next year. If something happens after the New Year, Ke Ke would not go back to the village, so he would like to wish her a happy New Year in advance.

After a long trip eastward, when he arrived home, Li Shi was dumbfounded when he saw the pile of things his mother had prepared.

Two pieces of cured chicken, two pieces of cured duck, three pieces of bacon, half a leg of soft meat, a snakeskin bag of dried mushrooms, fried tofu, croquettes, free-range eggs, dried day lilies, dried lilies, etc., the best

The key thing is that there are two live chickens with wings and chicken feet tied with ropes.

"Mom, didn't you say you don't need to get anything? I..."

Li's mother Zhou Xiaocui said directly: "It's not like you prepared it for me."

Li Shi was immediately speechless. If it was prepared for him, then naturally it would be prepared for her daughters-in-law...

Without further ado, I just stuffed it into the trunk of the car.

Finally, looking at the two live chickens, Cuo’s mother said, “Please, let’s take one with us. It’s settled now and we’ll eat it tomorrow for the Chinese New Year. Why don’t we leave the other at home for Nagu to raise? It’s not easy to raise in the city.

After all, the Chinese New Year is still a few days away."

Before returning, Li Shi and Li Qiaona chatted for a while and talked about things in the village.

Li Shi gave her a suggestion: "Nagu, my current household registration is in the village. He thinks that when it changes next year, I can run for election."

Li Qiaona was stunned: "He hasn't thought about that."

Li Shi smiled and said: "You can consider something."

Li Qiaona pondered for a moment. She had a resolute and resolute character. When Li Shi pointed it out, she immediately figured it out and said immediately: "Then let's talk to Uncle Shu."

Li Shi nodded, took out the last red envelope in his pocket, handed it to her, and said, "Okay, he's leaving first. Is the red envelope a New Year's red envelope for Third Grandpa and Third Grandma? I'll give it to him."

The third master and third wife disowned her parents.

I didn't eat in the village at noon. I rushed back to Tanzhou very early. I looked for a restaurant outside and paid for a bite by mistake. It was only three o'clock in the morning when I arrived at Phoenix Bay.

Did Wang Yuelan tidy up the room before she went to Yangcheng?

The home originally had four large suites, a nanny's room, a storage room, and a study room.

Li Shi disliked that the previous study room was too small, so he transformed one of the smaller suites into Ruming's study room. There are three remaining suites, one is the master bedroom, and the other two are about the same size, with good views and distances.

The master bedroom that is far away will be arranged for my mother to live in, and the one that is closer to the master bedroom will be occupied when Chen Qiuye and Wang Yuelan come back.

There are elderly people here, so be careful and don't blatantly sleep in the same room.

My mother has a restless character. As soon as she gets home, she starts going to the East, hoping that next year will be a lively one.

Li Shi stayed with her until her mother became familiar with the electrical appliances in the kitchen, and then she occasionally went to calligraphy and reading books.

On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, which was the small year, the mother and son did some general cleaning and cooked six dishes. Before the meal, they offered sacrifices to the Stove Lord and their ancestors.

In the next two days, although Li Shi deliberately did not study much and stayed with his mother, the old man felt bored. He bluntly said that he had to go back to his hometown early after the New Year. The city was too boring and boring.

It wasn't until the early morning of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month that her mood became better. She got up early in the morning and took Li Shi to drive her to the supermarket to buy fresh vegetables. She said that when Chen Qiuye and the others arrived at noon, they would definitely let her go.

They can enjoy sumptuous hot meals and dishes as soon as they enter the house.

After returning from shopping for groceries, Li Shi helped his legs. When it was almost ten o'clock, he drove to the high-speed rail station. After waiting for a while, he picked up Chen Qiuye and Wang Yuelan who were pushing two oversized suitcases.

The two of them were wearing the same down jacket, one red and one khaki, standing together, so attractive.

Behind the car, Chen Qiuye walked with the passenger seat. She was very excited at first, but as the car drove across the river and got closer to home, she began to become nervous.

Wang Yuelan in the back seat is quite nice. Her identity today is Chen Qiuye's "cousin".

Chen Qiuye is just Chen Qiuye. As a "ruthless person", no matter how big the matter is, she can only be nervous. She quickly adjusted her mood. When the car was parked in the garage, she could not see any nervousness on her face.

emotions.

Even a little impatient.

"They're going as soon as possible. Don't make Auntie wait too long."

With that said, Chen Qiuye walked straight towards the elevator. After walking a few steps, Yongtuo came over, took Wang Yuelan's arm and pulled her with him.

A few minutes later.

Everyone was walking in the living room. Mother Li pulled Chen Qiuye's legs and walked together. She stared at her face with a smile on her face for a while, then turned to Li Shi and said, "Qiuye is so beautiful, she looks much better in person than in the video."

Beautiful, worthy of my comment, stone, I am so high-spirited."

Li Shi smiled along with his mother.

But Chen Qiuye immediately said: "Auntie, Shitou has been trained very well by you. You don't know, but he actually pursued him on his own initiative."

That sentence immediately made Mother Li happy.

Looking at Chen Qiuye, the more I look at it, the more pleasing I am.

Of course, the old man did not neglect Wang Yuelan's "cousin" either. He also chatted with her enthusiastically.

After walking in and chatting for a while, they started to eat. After eating, they collected the shit and stewed it, and then went to the kitchen to clean up and arrange the ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Ingredients such as fish maw need to be soaked in advance.

Two women accompanied his mother. Li Shi came to the study and read with peace of mind.

Tomorrow he will read Qian Mu's "Outline of National History". In the previous confinement, he has read fifteen introductions and one written self-note of this book. Tomorrow he finally read the first chapter: "The Origin of Chinese Culture in the Central Plains"

》

"The exploration of ancient history that caused modern mistakes can be described in two ways: first, the excavation of prehistoric relics. Second, the review of legends and myths."

"The excavation of prehistoric relics can be divided into three parts..."

"Gansu Qingyang in the Paleolithic Age, Zhoukoudian in Beijing, Lantian in Shaanxi, etc., Yangshao Culture in the New Age, Longshan Culture in Anyang, etc... Especially the excavation of the Yin Ruins in Anyang, I really want to see it."

When studying history, if you just read the words in the books, you won’t get much intuitive experience.

After Li Shi read this, he had the idea of ​​waiting for the Chinese New Year and following the historical sites to visit them.

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.

I got up and opened the door and saw that it was indeed my mother.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Mother Li didn't say anything at first. After walking into the study, she asked in a low voice: "Shitou, what's going on with Qiuye's cousin? Why is she so familiar with the house, especially the kitchen, where everything is placed, than Qiuye?"

very clear."

Wishing all my Taoist friends a happy new year.
