In the country of China, there are four short but effective magic spells that can improve people's endurance and tolerance. As long as it is used flexibly in the right situation, it will not only generate unreasonable recognition and affirmation from people in the surrounding Chinese civilization circle, but also force those with different opinions to put aside their personal emotions for the sake of the overall situation.
Although these four spells can be separated into countless variations, covering almost any time, any place, and any group of people, in summary they are four:
"Big New Year" is used to express the Spring Festival period. The Spring Festival is an important traditional festival in the Chinese civilization circle. It is the reflection of the results of a year's hard work at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, so even if there are big things, we must be tolerant. We must not disturb everyone's interest and use this argument to unreasonably prohibit the other party from promoting their legitimate rights. Of course, it can also be extended to any festival or even a specific time of the day. "Early in the morning Don't be so angry." "Let's talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to do tonight." "Everyone, be happy during the holiday and don't mention such disappointing things." and many other variations.
"You're still young" is usually used to excuse a naughty child when he does something wrong. Because the child is still young and ignorant, you, the older one, should let him go. At the same time, it can also derive a curse called "getting older": he is so old, why can't you, a junior, suffer a little and let him have a favor? As well as "when people reach middle age, there are old ones above and young ones below", using the idea that it is not easy for oneself and having difficulties to force others to accommodate oneself at one's own expense. These are some variations of usage.
"Everyone is dead." The dead are the most important. No matter how much emotions and dissatisfaction there is, no matter how sorry the deceased did to you during his lifetime, you must respect the deceased. Since he is dead, you should forgive him for his indiscretion. The gangster logic of reason can also derive reasons such as "the man has just died and the bones are not yet cold" to justify his less than legitimate behavior.
"It's all coming." This is the most powerful of the four curses. It is not only a kind of psychological comfort that is not lost, but also a kind of helplessness that things have happened but cannot be changed. You can walk around after you have come, no matter how hard it is to use, you can’t throw it away after you have bought it, and you can’t go around in a circle and go back after you have left... No matter what situation you are facing, You can use similar sentence patterns to comfort yourself or comfort others.
For example, Village Chief Hu invited them to visit the village with the sentence "Everyone has come".
By the time Joseph and the others met up with Chen Weilun, it was already close to dinner time, so Village Chief Hu invited everyone to have a casual meal.
"Isn't this good?" Joseph's first reaction was to refuse, but before he could say anything more, Village Chief Hu blocked the possibility of evasion: "It's nothing bad. If you are worried about delaying it too late, it will affect today's performance." Meet up at night. After dinner, I can ask a few young people who are familiar with the mountain roads to lead you back. As long as your meeting point is around the village, your safety is still guaranteed."
"But..." Joseph originally wanted to shirk it again, but when he saw that his companions showed their intention to go, he had to give up.
Finally, the group of people was entertained by the village chief and came to the small canteen in the village. Since a small village like this has not developed tourism, it naturally has no restaurants, hotels and the like. Village Chief Hu apologized repeatedly as he walked and could only feel aggrieved. A large round table was set up where the grassroots workers in the village ate to entertain guests.
Stir-fried pork, braised bean curd sausage, stir-fried baby cabbage, preserved egg tofu, bacon and fried bean shreds... A table of four meat and four vegetables plus a wild mushroom soup, a total of nine dishes, including fish, meat, meat and vegetables, although they are all These are ordinary farm dishes, not delicacies from mountains and seas, rare and expensive food, but they are still full of fragrance, making people salivate and move their index fingers.
There were seven sets of cutlery neatly placed on the edge of the large round table. It seemed that only the village chief was eating with them, and no one else was dining with them. After some polite remarks, they finally sat down. Then Village Chief Hu said he would excuse me, and then I walked into the back room not knowing what to do.
At this time, Joseph took the time to quietly inform Zhao Chensi, who was sitting next to him: "Don't eat too much, or you won't be able to walk on the road later, and don't drink to avoid getting drunk. It's dangerous to walk at night later, so don't drink either." Use wild mushroom soup to avoid poisoning by wild mushrooms, so don’t spread these words to others.”
He nodded, and although he was quite confused, he passed the words in a low voice to Wan Qi, Shi Yu, Yang Xin and Chen Weilun in order of seating order without asking any more questions.
As the afternoon progressed, he became more wary of the so-called 'Village Chief Hu'. His attitude was too enthusiastic. He didn't know what the village chief usually did, but he didn't do anything this afternoon. It is really suspicious to lead them around the village and drag them to eat simple meals.
But what made him even more weird was that other people seemed to automatically ignore this oily middle-aged man's identity as the village chief.
Moreover, Zhao Chensi is very supportive of not drinking alcohol and not eating wild mushroom soup. Drinking alcohol can easily cause trouble. As for mushroom soup, wild mushrooms picked in the mountains and forests may also be mixed with toadstools, but others can listen. How much is up to them.
Just like Wan Qi, this drunkard has begun to look forward to what the wine he will drink later will taste like, without taking the previous warning to heart at all.
"Come on, come on! Try the source wine of our Changsheng Village!" But before these words could reach Chen Weilun's ears, Village Chief Hu walked out of the back room with a small wine jar, saying that he walked in three steps. He came to the dining table and poured a glass of wine for Chen Weilun. "This Yuanquan wine is a specialty of our village. Come on, come on! Let's try it!" Then he enthusiastically wanted to give it to everyone in the expedition team one by one. Pour the wine.
"Ah...I've been having some physical inconveniences recently, so I can't drink alcohol..." Yang Xin, who remembered the advice, quickly waved her hand, poured herself a cup of tea, and found an excuse to excuse herself.
After Shigu covered his mouth and coughed a few times, he pointed to his cup filled with tea and declined Village Chief Hu's kindness: "I am allergic to alcohol. When I drink, I will have difficulty breathing and my whole body will become red and rash. I used to I even went to the hospital because of this..."
On the contrary, Wan Qi looked like he had forgotten what he said before. He smiled and took the wine and sniffed it twice. The fragrance of the wine was so refreshing that he couldn't help but praise: "It smells good! This wine must be good wine!"
Zhao Chensi couldn't stop him even if he wanted to.
When it was his turn, he shook his head expressionlessly, and refused coldly and simply: "Thank you, I don't drink."
"Sorry, if you drink and walk at night you may be in danger, so I won't drink anymore." Joseph had no intention of drinking at all.
At the end of the round, only Chen Weilun, who was unaware, and Wanqi, who didn't listen to the advice, poured wine into their glasses. Seeing that the other people were unwilling to drink, Village Chief Hu, who was frustrated, did not continue to persuade him to drink, and walked around in a circle. Then he returned to his seat, poured himself a glass of wine, and then raised his glass.
Village Chief Hu didn't hesitate. He drank most of the wine in the cup and picked up his chopsticks: "I won't be too lengthy. You're welcome, just use your chopsticks!"
Wanqi, who had been unable to hold back for a long time, took a sip of the wine. The fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth and he couldn't help but praise: "It smells good! It's really a good wine!"
Chen Weilun sat aside and showed off his usual style, drinking glass after glass and eating vegetables.
Zhao Chensi, who is over-cautious and always likes to over-prepare, only pretends to be eating with his chopsticks. He puts his chopsticks to the side of the dish and uses the cover of the soup pot to pretend to pick up a bite of food. He then uses the angle and the cover of the plate to pretend to be eating. He looked like he had barely eaten a few bites of food during the entire meal.
The other three seemed much more normal. Yang Xin and Shi Yu also listened to Joseph's message, and did not touch the wild mushroom soup and did not eat too much.
After having enough wine and food, Joseph had no intention of staying at all. He declined Village Chief Hu's offer to send someone to give them a ride. After saying goodbye, he left the village with a few people.
The expedition team was walking in the dim peach forest.
"Ahem, cough, cough..." Shigure covered her mouth and coughed again. Although she would cough a few times during the dinner, this time her coughing was not only more violent and serious than before.
Even Wan Qi coughed violently as if he had choked on water.
At this moment, this familiar scene suddenly made Zhao Chensi's eyes widen, his scalp exploded, and his hair stood on his head!
