Feimiao?
The gentle and quiet woman flashed through Li Shi's mind. He stretched out his hand to pull Chen Qiuye, who was wearing pajamas, onto his lap, wrapped her body around her soft body, rested his head comfortably on her shoulder, and asked softly: "Your Did you say yesterday that something might have happened to her?"
Chen Qiuye gently stroked Li Shi's cheek and said, "Compared with before, she is a completely different person now. Something must have happened. At first we thought it was something going on at home, such as something going on with her father's business." Guo Lan went to inquire about it and found out that it was not the case, but that her grandmother had passed away."
The woman's jade hands were extremely gentle, stroking from cheek to earlobe: "She spent the last few months of her life with the old man in her hometown, which may have greatly touched a formerly innocent little girl like her."
"I see."
With a little force on his hands, Li Shi hugged Chen Qiuye and turned around, sitting face to face with him. He took a step further and said, "Then let her come. Among these people, you said that the relationship with her is the most true and the most genuine." Okay, at this time, you should comfort her."
"Um."
Chen Qiuye reached back and found his cell phone from the desk and sent a message.
Not wanting this information to be sent, Fei Miao called.
Listening to the ringtone, Chen Qiuye glanced at the caller ID, took a breath, pursed his red lips and answered:
"Hmm... um, it's okay. It's convenient. Come on, I'll ask Sister Yuelan to make something delicious for you."
"Nothing, um...he welcomes you, too."
…
At around ten o'clock in the morning, when the doorbell rang, everyone thought it was a wonderful arrival.
Li Shi, who was reading "Historical Records" on his tablet in the living room, went to open the door, only to find that it was Lin Zongyue standing outside the door.
"Brother Lin, what are you doing?"
Last night, Li Shi asked him many questions, and his title was changed from Director Lin to Brother Lin.
"Teacher Li, can we have a chat?"
Lin Zongyue had heavy bags under his eyes and looked tired.
"certainly."
Li Shirang motioned for him to come in.
However, Lin Zongyue stood there, saying hello to Chen Qiuye who had already walked to the door, and then said to Li Shi: "I still want to talk about martial arts with you, how about... let's talk outside?"
Li Shi nodded.
Chen Qiuye immediately brought a coat over. After putting it on, he changed his shoes and followed Lin Zongyue to take the elevator downstairs.
The two of them didn't go far, just wandering around the community and talking about the topic they talked about on WeChat yesterday.
When he walked to a pavilion in the middle of the community and stopped, Lin Zongyue looked at Li Shi's expression and asked: "Teacher Li, are you really born with such great strength? Have you ever practiced qigong or something like that?"
Li Shi shook his head: "I have never practiced qigong. I have practiced running in sports. I originally wanted to learn martial arts and yoga, but there were too many things and I was too busy, so I didn't have time to learn them."
His answer was 100% true, but he avoided the question of "whether he was born with it".
Lin Zongyue thought of what happened last night again and sighed: "Your memory and body coordination are so good, you are like a real-life version of Zhang Wuji. You are so suitable for learning various sports that emphasize body coordination... By the way, you His sprint results must be very good, right?"
Li Shi smiled and said, "It's not bad. He can run a little faster than ordinary people."
After chatting for a few more words, Lin Zongyue suddenly said: "Teacher Li, do you think there is such a thing as internal force in this world?"
Li Shi didn't even think about it: "Of course not, you have to believe in science."
"Believe in science?"
Lin Zongyue was stunned and murmured to himself. After a while, he sighed: "Yes, how can those mysterious things be possible in reality? I have been exploring martial arts for so many years, spent so much money, and made so many friends... In the end, it all comes down to it." , Martial arts is nothing more than a training method for strengthening the body, practicing strength, and exerting force. A higher level, emphasizing martial ethics and martial arts can only enhance personal moral cultivation and artistic cultivation."
"Well, I used to be unwilling to accept it. I thought that those illusory things existed but were lost. Now that I think about it, I feel a little bit self-deceiving."
"When I was young, I was deeply influenced by martial arts and film and television dramas."
Speaking of this, Lin Zongyue seemed to have figured out some major problem in life, and his overall condition suddenly became better.
He smiled and said: "Teacher Li, thank you for chatting with me for so long. By the way, yesterday's set of Long Yun's eighteen moves also includes breathing techniques. I will teach you them now."
As he said that, he stood up in the open space of the community.
"Breathing is a technique that uses breathing to coordinate the body's exertion...On the one hand, it exercises our respiratory system and cardiopulmonary function, and on the other hand, it coordinates with the strength. In fact, not only our Chinese martial arts have this, but also some current boxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, There is also training in this area.”
…
Half an hour later, Lin Zongyue said goodbye and left.
After he left, Li Shi stood there in a daze for a while, then called up the study panel and "watched" the nebulae that were constantly annihilating in the background.
I also thought of the warmth that was generated in my body out of thin air every time I integrated the physical attribute points.
"That warmth is the 'certain existence' that the nebula's annihilating power gradually returns to itself. It's not internal power... There is indeed no such thing as internal power in reality. I'm not completely lying to him..."
"And all of this is scientific, but compared to the entire universe, the extent of human scientific development is still limited."
"What about outside the universe?"
"I am a unique existence."
Li Shi smiled, looked up at the sky, turned around and walked back.
When I walked to the elevator, suddenly a voice came from not far behind me: "Brother-in-law?"
Brother-in-law? !
Li Shi was startled by this title. The voice seemed familiar. When he looked back, he saw that it was Fei Miao whom he had met yesterday.
She looked a little tired, but she was better than Lin Zongyue who had just left. Lin Zongyue still looked like he had stayed up all night, but her hair was a little messy, and her clothes had not been changed. She was still wearing the same outfit she wore for dinner last night. .
"Here he comes." Li Shi replied with a smile, thinking, since he called me brother-in-law, wouldn't he be sister-in-law?
This was the first time someone called him "brother-in-law", which felt novel.
After entering the elevator, Fei Miao leaned on the wall of the elevator, raised her head slightly, and looked at the floor display screen, lost in thought.
Looks a little sluggish.
It seems that this little girl is really not in a good mental state.
Li Shi didn't say anything, and the elevator was quiet.
When he reached the floor, he went out first and rang the doorbell.
The person who opened the door was Chen Qiuye. When she saw Li Shi and Fei Miao, she smiled and said, "Did you meet downstairs?"
"Well, I just saw off Director Lin when I met Fei Miao at the elevator entrance." Li Shi took off his coat and handed it to her, "Is the meal ready? I'm already hungry."
"Sister Lan is cooking the last dish, and the meal can be served soon." Chen Qiuye took his coat and hung it up, then said to Fei Miao, who also took off his coat, "Miaomiao, Sister Lan specially cooked it for you." I love the boiled meat slices, I’ll eat more later.”
When Fei Miao saw Chen Qiuye, her whole face became brighter and a smile appeared on her face. She immediately said: "Thank you, Sister Yuelan, but Sister Qiuye, I want to take a bath first. I stayed at my classmate's rental house last night. After staying in the room for one night, her water heater was broken, and I didn’t bring a change of clothes..."
"Then you can wear mine. It just so happens that I haven't worn the new clothes I bought a few days ago."
"There's no need for a coat or anything like that. If you have...new clothes to wear underneath, I can just change them."
Fei Miao suddenly remembered that there was a man in the room, and swallowed the word "underwear" on her lips again. She changed her word to another one and couldn't help but turn her head to look at Li Shi. When she saw that he was fine, he went to the restaurant like a normal person. and the kitchen, without even looking at themselves, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"This brother-in-law does seem to be a gentleman."
Li Shi went into the kitchen and greeted Wang Yuelan, briefly rewarded her with his words and made a table of delicious food, then went to the study and continued reading "Historical Records".
After a while, Chen Qiuye walked in, put her arms around his neck and sat down.
"Feimiao had a fight with her father when she went home last night, and then she ran out without bringing anything with her. We plan to go to the mall to buy something after dinner. Will you go, little brother?"
Li Shi put down the tablet, felt the smoothness of her waist, and said, "I'm reading at home, you go."
"Hmm...ah."
When Chen Qiuye answered, his stuttering was no longer clear.
She thought that Feimiao would be around in the next two days. Although she didn't care, she couldn't be as unscrupulous as when there were only three of them at home, so she seized the opportunity to enjoy her man.
Today's lunch menu is indeed rich. In addition to Li Shi's favorite fried pork ribs with green peppers and large slices of beef stewed with sweet potato flour, there are also boiled meat slices, fish maw chicken soup, and two vegetables.
Feimiao also politely thanked Wang Yuelan before eating.
It can be seen that she has a good education.
After dinner, Li Shi returned to the study, while Chen Qiuye and the three of them cleared the dining table together, and then went out to go shopping in a nearby shopping mall.
"Is it really okay for us to leave my brother-in-law alone at home like this?"
After getting out of the elevator, Fei Miao held Chen Qiuye's arm with her right hand and Wang Yuelan with her left hand, and suddenly asked.
When Chen Qiuye saw her calling her brother-in-law, he also found it novel and said with a smile: "It's okay. He usually likes to stay at home, create and read. As long as there is a book to read, he can stay there all day long."
"That's right, that's right. My brother-in-law is very bookish. He must be a good reader. In fact, I also like reading now, but I just can't get into it. I get distracted easily when reading books, and I can't help but do other things. Either playing with his mobile phone or... When I go back after shopping, I’ll go ask him for advice.”
…
Historian Deng Guangming once said that there are "four keys" to learning Chinese history - chronology, geography, official positions, and catalogue.
When Li Shi read the Historical Records, he also read them with questions.
His emphasis is on "geography".
Perhaps because they were thinking about Li Shi at home, the women were shopping very efficiently today. They left home at one o'clock and came back after four o'clock.
Li Shi heard the noise, came out to say hello, and then continued into the study.
It didn't take long for Fei Miao to follow her in. She explained her problem of being easily distracted when reading.
"Once, I made up my mind to read thirty pages of a book in one afternoon. That time I even turned off my phone, but... as soon as I sat down and faced the book, I couldn't help but pour tea. After drinking the tea, I wanted to wash the fruit and eat it, then I remembered that my clothes were not washed, so I went to wash the clothes again... In the last afternoon, I read six pages."
Fei Miao was a little embarrassed. When she finished speaking, she smoothed the hair next to her left ear.
Seeing that she was serious about what she said, Li Shi was willing to take a high look at people who also liked reading. He thought about it and said, "I personally think that whether you can concentrate on reading is also a matter of habit, and habits are cultivated slowly. Yes, in this case, there is nothing to do now anyway, you go find a book on the bookshelf, sit there and read it, try to focus on it, and I will observe how easily you are distracted."
"good."
Feimiao turned around and went to look for a book on the bookshelf.
Li Shi stood up, walked over and opened the study door completely, then came back to sit down and continue studying.
Fei Miao noticed his movements and looked back. She felt more and more that this brother-in-law was really a rare gentleman. No wonder someone like an iceberg fairy like Sister Qiuye could fall in love with him.
She majored in economics before dropping out of school. When she saw a book on government and economics called "Being Inside the Matter" on the bookshelf, she took it down, sat on the sofa chair on the side of the study room, and started reading.
For a while, the study room was quiet, except for the sound of Li Shi's pen sliding on the paper and the pages turning as he occasionally took notes.
Li Shi occasionally raised his head to observe her.
I saw her half sitting and half lying on the sofa chair, holding a book in one hand, with the cover leaning on her slightly curved thigh, and occasionally turning pages with the other hand. From this direction, she could see her side face, and her beautiful face , staring at the pages of the book with beautiful eyes, occasionally blinking her long eyelashes, giving people a sense of quiet beauty over time.
For some reason, according to her own words, she would usually be distracted by Fei Miao doing other things for ten minutes at most, but today she suddenly got into the content of the book. Sixteen or seventeen minutes later, she was still very focused.
Li Shi observed her a few times, then ignored her and concentrated on learning his own.
After a while, Chen Qiuye went home and did some other things with Wang Yuelan. After taking a shower, Chen Qiuye came in wearing a loose red dress. She also took a magazine, moved a chair and sat opposite Li Shi, reading. stand up.
It's just that she who always likes to "go crazy" with Li Shi can't behave herself, especially when it's already dark outside. After only a few minutes, she secretly glanced at Fei Miao over there and saw that she seemed to be reading a book very seriously. , then secretly stretched his jade legs to Li Shi's side.
Li Shi's study was interrupted, and he felt "angry" and suddenly "revengeful"!
So she pretended to continue reading, quickly reached under the desk with her hands, and grabbed those troublesome beautiful feet.
Hey, this woman actually wore stockings after taking a shower today.
…
It was indeed rare for Fei Miao to read so engrossed in a book today.
When Chen Qiuye came in, she knew it, but she was curious about the follow-up content of the "Investment Attraction" section, so she only raised her head and continued to be immersed in the book.
But as she looked at it, she suddenly felt something was wrong with her peripheral vision, and subconsciously looked under the table over there.
"Ah, this brother-in-law...how could he do this..."
The pretty face that was originally quiet and fair turned red instantly. (End of chapter)
