Chapter 52 The Caged Bird (Part 2)

Books are the main tool for humans to purify their souls.

Ancestors' experiences, life philosophies, and methods of dealing with problems are all written on that thin piece of paper.

Write down your daily reflections and compile them into a book for future generations to learn and understand.

During the five thousand years of Chinese history, the sages of the past dynasties and their lifelong wisdom have been gathered in the vast sea of ​​books.

If you can read this book, you will benefit from it throughout your life.

But this martial arts drama, which was born in the Ming Dynasty, appears a bit nondescript when it appears on Chu Lan.

This top student from Dongfang University must be a fanatic who was bewitched by Soviet red propaganda, and he is definitely not a layman who likes to read foreign histories of martial arts.

Cai Zhen also interrogated many red elements, and quite a few Lenin quotations and the Communist Manifesto were seized from them and from their homes, but he never saw any of them leisurely reading martial arts novels.

In addition, Chu Lan airborne from Nomenkan not long ago, and came to Harbin to perform a secret mission, so he would definitely not carry any extra items with him.

There must be something fishy in this book "Seven Heroes and Five Righteousnesses"!

Cai Zhen quietly pulled out a little of "Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness" from Chu Lan's pocket.

It was discovered that this book was printed by the Peking Printing Bureau in the 1930s.

After remembering the version clearly, she quietly put it back.

The conversation at the dinner table continues.

It was said to be a reception feast, but there was very little food prepared. Each person only got a red sausage, a plate of red cabbage soup, and a few slices of big ribs.

Everyone barely had enough to eat.

But fortunately, there is still a lot of wine left, which can continue to warm up this boring night.

Ye Jinrong asked Sister Ma to find a large handful of hairy nuts and give each person a handful as a side dish.

While Zhou Yi was drinking wine and eating melon seeds, he used his peripheral vision to observe Cai Zhen's little moves. Naturally, he also saw the "Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness" that Chu Lan carried close to his body.

Lu Ming took a sip of red wine and he keenly discovered that Chu Lan was probably out on a mission for the first time and was not vigilant.

Coupled with two glasses of cat urine (wine), I couldn't hold my tongue.

Decided to use this silly roe deer as a breakthrough.

"Lao Chu, do all your Soviet instructors speak Chinese?" Lu Ming also pretended to be drunk and asked with his tongue hanging out.

Chu Lan shook her head subconsciously and opened her mouth and said: "пpoлetapnnвceгomnpao6ъeдnhnлncь!"

Lu Ming and Ye Jinrong did not understand it immediately and looked at Chu Lan with doubts on their faces.

Wang Yu also felt funny and immediately answered: "This is Russian, and this sentence is also printed on the national emblem of the Soviet Union."

"It means, proletarians all over the world, unite!".

Lu Ming suddenly became interested. He imitated Chu Lan's pronunciation from memory and tried to speak it several times.

But Russian is too convoluted, and he has no basic knowledge at all, so he can't speak it at all.

I had no choice but to say: "пpo... This is too difficult, who can explain it!".

Zhou Yi took a sip of red wine and corrected with a smile: "пpoлetapnn!"

“вceгomnpao6ъeдnhnлncь!”.

Seeing the comrades on the table imitating clumsily, Chu Lan smiled proudly and showed off: "When I first went to the Soviet Union, I couldn't speak Russian well."

"But after I finished reading the entire "Communist Manifesto", I can speak Russian fluently!".

Wang Yu glanced at Zhou Yi and continued to ask: "Have the group been contacted?".

When Lu Ming heard this, he also put down the wine glass in his hand and said seriously: "There is no news at the moment."

"But based on the distance, they should also go to Harbin."

"We will contact you tomorrow to inquire!".

Wang Yu's face didn't look good, but that was all he could do. He patted Chu Lan, who was almost drunk, and asked him to go to bed to rest first.

Seeing that the meal was almost finished, Zhou Yi said at the right time: "You're almost done drinking. Let's go to bed early!"

"Sister Ma, make some rice tomorrow, stir-fry two vegetables, and stew potatoes and eggplant."

"Stop messing with these big beetroot soups!".

Sister Ma smiled innocently, said "I know", and helped Cai Zhen clean up the dishes.

Wang Yu also stood up to help, but Cai Zhen stopped him and said he would accompany her back to have a good rest.

Leave the work of washing dishes and pots to these grown men.

After saying that, he took Wang Yu's arm and left the dining room.

Zhou Yi also smiled slightly, took off his windbreaker, rolled up his sleeves, and led Lu Ming and Ye Jinrong to clean the dishes.

Chu Lan lay on the mattress, muttered a few words, then fell asleep, snoring.

Gao Bin was wearing pajamas, sitting on a recliner, using military binoculars to look at the night scene in the distance.

The expatriate area did not become quiet as night fell, but instead became more lively.

The waitress at the fish and sashimi shop facing the street, wearing a kimono, worked hard to attract customers at the door despite the severe cold.

Looking at the car parked in front of the store, you can tell that his business tonight is very good.

Department stores are also constantly filled with customers, and people who come out have large and small packages in their hands. It seems that they have bought their favorite products.

This noisy and prosperous scene made Gao Bin intoxicated. This was all the result of his careful management.

The sound of footsteps going upstairs was heard behind him, and after a few seconds, a blue woolen cardigan was draped over Gao Bin's body.

Gao Bin did not speak, but accurately grasped the hand of the person behind him and stroked it gently.

"Every day when I come back from get off work, I go crazy."

"It's been two years since we moved here, and it's been two years since you've been here. Don't you mind?"

"If you really like it, I'll go shopping with you and see if you enjoy it!"

Gao Bin's wife, Wang Xuehong, put her hands on Gao Bin's temples and kneaded them gently.

Gao Bin didn't answer, put down the military telescope in his hand, and enjoyed his wife's loving massage.

Wang Xuehong pressed the button for more than a minute, then pulled Gao Bin up from the chair and said softly: "The food is ready!"

"If you don't go down to eat, it will get cold!"

"Someone from my hometown came to visit relatives and brought you a lot of pancakes."

"I tasted a little at lunch and it tasted good."

"Didn't you say you wanted to eat it before? It's time to give it a try!".

Gao Bin put on his woolen sweater and asked with a smile: "Have the arrangements been made for everyone coming?".

"arranged!"

"But I came here in a hurry this time. I have something to do at home, so I will go back overnight."

"I brought some money and some cloth and asked him to go home and share some of it."

"Don't worry! Everything has been arranged!" Wang Xuehong replied.

Gao Bin also nodded, holding his wife's arm and walking downstairs.

When passing by the living room again, I suddenly noticed a bird shelf by the window.

A thrush stood on the horizontal bar, concentrating on pecking at the millet in the small bowl on the shelf.

There is a thin silver chain on the paw, which firmly ties this good-looking thrush to the bird stand.
Chapter completed!
